Customer attributes in SAP Solution Manager

Hi,
I have created Customer Attributes in SAP Solution Manager, SPRO--> SAP Solution Manager-->Capabilities-->Implementation/Upgrade-->Blueprint and Configuration-->Object Attributes--> Definition of Customer Attributes for Object Types. I have assigned the Customer Attributes for Project/Solution.
Now I have the attribute in the project nodes but I can't enter Attribute Values. How can I solve this problem?
Regards.

Hi,
you need assign value in solar02, when you assign attributes to the object. check out
Adding customer attributes to objects in Project and Solution
Thanks

How to Transfer Customizing Data from SAP ECC6 to SAP Solution Manager

Hi all,
I want to Transfer Customizing Data (such as organization structure) from SAP ECC6 to SAP Solution Manager.Please tell me how. Thanks.

Hi,
The system cannot capture the customizing data from your ECC6. This is another myth with SAP Solution Manager. Solution Manager can only smoothen the process of your Project Management.
Hope this solves your problem.
Feel free to revert back.

Questions on "FAQ - SAP Solution Manager for VARs"

Hi,
I just got through the FAQ - SAP Solution Manager for VARs, but have some further questions:
For me it is not quite clear which connections are necessary for which VAR scenrio.. currently we have setup the service desk in our solman. Customer's aren't linked to the solman yet - we have saprouter-saprouter connections. Connecting them via SAP support backbone is an interesting option, especially for incident management. To get this working we should follow note 1124718 right?
But what about the other scenarios like maintenance optimizer and ewa monitoring? I guess for that we definitly need to build up RFC connections to each relevant customer system (~300+x)?! I think it will be hard to handle so many connections - just consider if a customer is cancalling the maintenance contract, everything needs to be removed again... best would be to have a central communication point...
For MOPZ we need up-to-date system information. So everyone is talking about SLD. Do you also recommend this option? There we need again a connection (direct to SolMan SLD or via external SLD on customer side).
According to the FAQ there is a workaround for ewa monitoring for customers with security doubts.. is this also working for non-ABAP components? We need SMD and WI for generating ewas for JAVA systems...
With regards to Enterprise Support contract: ewa only need to be monitored for productive systems? Can a customer be charged if they want to have ewas monitored for other sytems too? How long do we need to keep the ewas (1 month, 3 months, half year) before they are deleted? Are there any specific requirements?
All the work to get these scenarios working.. is this covered within the Enterprise Support contract? Can the customer be charged for work thats done by the VAR in their system (e.g. RFC connections, SDCCN, SLD,...)?
Sorry for this long text.. hope you have some helpful ideas!
Regards,
Richard

Hello Richard,
(1) regarding network connections see document [Draft:Technical Support Network Connections for VAR Scenario|http://service.sap.com/~form/sapnet?_SHORTKEY=00200797470000089947&_OBJECT=011000358700000880802009E] as overview and with a lot of detailed information.
(2) yes, you have to setup once all your customer connections at the beginning but then only add/remove with customer contract changes
(3) the workaround by sending by email can handled a anexception. EWA has to be done for productive systems like nowadays done by SAP. Additional EWA services could meas additional business case for a VAR - that's contract between VAR and customer.
(4) whatever you think may be a business to sell - do it ! (and get a monetary bonus from your boss

SAP Solution Manager Certification

Hi there!
I would like to give Certification exam in SAP Solution Manager 4.0.
Pertaining to this could anybody share the related PDF Files.
Regards,
Suresh

Hello,
I've tried to get to some Sample Questions here on Forum, but I couldn't get any.
I passed an exam on 14.11.2006 and I suggest to you to use course materials as suggested by SAP (SMI310). That is sufficient to pass the certificate. All the answers are there.
My general opinion: not easyYou have to be pretty much concentrated as there were questions put in negative expressions.You have to be really, really carefull.
They are taking a lot of details on subjects like Type of projects (Template projects, Roll out implementations, customer satisfaction) including its Roadmaps. (e.g. roll-out project phases and its content.)
I only saw 3 or 4 questions familiar to me (from Test your knowledge, SMI310 book), others were really related to course materials but spoken in their own words
If you have any questions, dont hesitate to contact me.
Good luck to you and best regards.

Monitoring customer's systems in Solution Manager 7.1

Hello gurus.
I have successfully added our internal system to our Solution Manager 7.1 SP4 running on Oracle 11.2.0.2.
And now I'm wondering is it possible to add customer's systems to our Solution manager? There are some unclear moments one of which SLD configuration (RZ70, SLDAPICUST).
Does anyone have such an experience or maybe can help with links to documents or SAP notes.
Thank you!

Hi Alexey,
everything you need to know is in the "SAP Solution Manager operations"
document under
http://service.sap.com/solutionmanager
-> Media library
-> Documentation
if you have problems with the communication between the SLD and the SolMan
check document SAP Solution Manager Landscape Setup Guide
under http://service.sap.com/diagnostics
-> Media Library
and note 1148028 - Setup SLD in the scope of Solution Manager 7.0

Business Process Modeling in SAP Solution Manager

Hi.
Even ther an Solution Manager space, i wish to get some opinion related to Business process Modeling.
We are working in an upgrade project. R/3 4.6 C to ECC 6.0. The customer decide to use Solution manager to map their process, based on the transactions of the new version.
Company Business Process:
1.Based on ISO standards.
2.By product line
3.The process are defined using an structure with 4 Levels: Macro Process, Business scenarios, Business Process and Steps/activities.
There are 2 possibilities to map the process into the Sap Solution Manager:
1. Map the process by component.
- Single Project
-It means to make a list of all sap components with their process without mattering the business process.
-Each product line can be a variant for an specific process. e.g: Sales by line
2. Map the process as ISO Standards
- Several projects : For each product line
Which cold be the better option in order to:
- Easy configuration activities
- Easy design of Unit and integration test
- Easy activities of Process enhancement and optimization
Theres another option?
Thanks
Alvaro Hernán Rojas R

Hi Alvaro Hernán Rojas R ,
The product line is the hierarchy of the finished goods.
It is pertinent that the finished goods has emerged due to some process(es) carried on the raw material.
Thus logically you should map in solution manager based on the process only.
The macro process while depicts the processes at the highest level.The Business scenarios, Business Process gives a good idea about how you should go about configuring.The Steps/activities helps you to map in to SAP thro' T/Codes.
From the point of view of all of the below three,namely,
Easy configuration activities
Easy design of Unit and integration test
Easy activities of Process enhancement and optimization,
the option Map the process as ISO Standards
- Several projects : For each product line,will be most ideal.
It is the processes that drives the activities.The control activities like internal control etc are all process based.Given these,divorcing the business process from the configuration -as in -is certainly not a good practice.
Hope this helps.
Regards,
Ramesh

Upgrade process to SAP Solution Manager 7.1

Hello!
We use SAP EHP 1 for SAP Solution Manager 7.0 (SPS 26) and plan to upgrade to the new SAP Solution Manager 7.1.
We currently do not have Java Stack there.
Some questions about Upgrade process
1) Can a direct Upgrade from SAP EHP 1 for SAP Solution Manager 7.0 (SPS 26) to SAP Solution Manager 7.1 be realized?
2) Should we first install Java Stack and then proceed with the Upgrade or otherwise?
3) Will Windows 32 Bit and None-Unicode Version of SAP Solution Solution Manager be supported?
It will be great to get some helpful information.
kind regards

Hello!
Trying to answer your question
1) As described in note 1244225, there no restriction to upgrade the Solman EHP1 to solman 7.1. Refer to the section:
In case you do not participate in this current Solution Manager 7.1 beta shipment there are no restrictions for implementing now SP stack 25 and upgrading in the future to an equivilant SP stack of release 7.1."
2) The Solman EHP1 must always be a dual stack system, I am not sure, how you are running the Solman EHP1 without a Java Stack, you should have one.
3) I am not sure if there will be a Solman 7.1 32Bit Non-UNICODE version. But, SAP recommends to run Solution Manager on Unicode (see also customer letter on http://service.sap.com/Unicode). At solman EHP1 there are some issues when running the system as Non_UNICODE, refer note 1383407.
I am not sure if I could clarify all your doubts.
You may check the following URL:
http://service.sap.com/instguides
- SAP Components
- Solution Manager 7.1
As this is a very new software there is few documents in it, but soon you should see a upgrade guide here.

SAP Solution Manager - Enterprise Support Report bw cubes

We are looking at the Infoproviders in Solution Manager BW and noticed the data for SAP Solution Manager - Enterprise Support Report.
When we look at these cubes, we are particularly interested in the Software Component Versions.
Unfortunately, all of these data cubes are empty. Based on some discussions among our colleagues we are wondering if this data is only activated for customers that have the full Enterprise Support agreement in place with SAP?
If that is the case, then so be it (we don't have that level of support). However, if that is not the case, can anyone suggest a way to populate these cubes.
thanks,
Jeff Henke

Hi,
Solution Manager is a separate component and needs to be installed separately (not possible to install on top of R/3 Enterprise).
You can order SAP Solution Manager Software from SAP or download from http://service.sap.com/swdc
Solution manager is free from SAP and no additional license involved for it's customer for normal use.
You can get more information on Solution manager from http://service.sap.com/solutionmanager
btw: as far as I know for R/3 Enterprise you can still download patches via http://service.sap.com/swdc without solution manager, For Netweaver 7.0 systems, use of Solution Manager (Maintenance Optimizer) became mandatory.
Cheers !!
Satya.
PS: Pls reward points if the answer was helpful...Thx.

Hi,
Solution Manger is a central platform for all solutions.
Its a Support hub and gateway between SAP serivce market and the customer.
It helps in providibg tools, content, procedures,services to implement and operate the SAP solutions.
It helps in improving the IT services for a business and reduce the Downtimes to reduce the production loss.
It also helps in facing and solving technical risks.
Initially to upgrade the SAP related softwares Solution manager was not in need, but in the Netweaver level to upgrade Solution manager is a must decided but SAP at Germany.
So in a landscape Solution manager is also installed in a separate system and oneside connected to servicemarket and otherside to the landscape at your place.
Its mostly related to Basis Part of SAP.
I think this would give you an idea of what is SolMan.
Reward if useful.

What is exactly a IBASE in SAP Solution manager

Dear all
I'm making the configuration of service desk on SAP Solution manager, and then i have to make a set up of IBASE. Can anyone tel me what exactly is IBASE in solution manager?
thanks
Edited by: hchabi on Apr 1, 2010 1:45 PM

Hi
In solman you have SOL_MAN_DATA_REP as main IBASE or 1 and other managed systems will be attached to it as a component.
and you can check it in IB53 by entering "1" in the initial screen
For automatic generation you can use tcode IB_GEN and all the connected systems ibase will be generated and attached to ur ibase
Morever theoretically,
An installed base can be described as a multilevel structure of installed base components for managing objects (for example, devices, machines, software) that are installed, or are going to be installed on site at the customer site. An installed base can represent the reference basis for services.
An installed base describes the hierarchical structure of these objects and their individual parts (components
In business processes, an installed base can be referred to as a general unit or as an individual element (component).
The set of installed objects at the customeru2019s can be used, for example:
·        To determine the exact object for which a problem has been reported
·        To determine in detail what the transaction (for example, visit by field service representative, repair by a service employee) refers to
·        By the service employee as information about which object is affected and the parts it consists of
·        For documenting changes made to objects
Hope it helps and doubt is cleared

A problem on Sap Solution Manager

Hi all,
I got a problem with Sap Solution manager and i hope that you will be able to help me
Ill try to do my best to be understood in English =)
So, here is my goal :
I want to use SolMan as a workbench for test with eCATT. I made a very simple test with the transaction SECATT : A script for a customer creation by the transaction XD01.
This script works well, so Ive done the test configuration, the Test data and the system data.
At this point, I dont have any problem. If I launch the test, it works. (Important point maybe : I work in remote from an environnement dedicated to SolMan toward a production one).
When I try to put this test in SolMan, there appear my problems.
I dont really know SolMan for the moment, but it seems that I have to begin by the transaction SOLAR01 which lead me to the Business blueprint change. But I cant modify anything in it, as the system always tells me the following error : You cannot change (or There are no) Structure nodes.
Maybe Im not going in the good way, but I try every transaction in SolMan, like Configuration, Test plan management or project overview & Administration. I filled all field I could, but its not working for the moment.
I just want to know how to get my test in a workbench, in a test plan on SolMan
Can you help me ?
Thx a lot
R.P.
(P.S : Of course, if you got a step by step document, I would be pleased to receive it ! =))

Hello Papillon,
What I understand from your contribution: You do not seem to have a problem working with the Test Workbench in general but would like to know how to work with the Test Workbench as integral part of SAP Solution Manager.
The basic idea of SAP Solution Manager is that you have the possibility of doing a process-oriented testing (instead of straight module or functioned-oriented testing with regular Test Workbench functionality).
This is why in SAP Solution Manager you would start of with setting up a project (in transaction SOLAR_PROJECT_ADMIN), in which you define a <i>process-oriented</i> blueprint structure in the next step (transaction SOLAR01) and attach test cases to your process-oriented structure (in transaction SOLAR02) afterwards.
You will find a guide dedicated to testing topics in SAP Solution Manager here:
<a href="http://service.sap.com/form/sapnet?_SHORTKEY=01100035870000538663&_SCENARIO=01100035870000000202&_OBJECT=011000358700000213552006E">http://service.sap.com/form/sapnet?_SHORTKEY=01100035870000538663&_SCENARIO=01100035870000000202&_OBJECT=011000358700000213552006E</a>
This guide should provide sufficient guidance and walks you through the whole process, explaining why and how you operate the above mentioned transactions and much more.

SAP Solution Manager for SAP Business Suite On HANA

Dear Experts,
I have a small question regarding the available installation options for SAP Solution Manager for SOH.
Is there other available database platforms for the installation of SAP Solution Manager than the SAP HANA Database ?
Meaning that if we have a customer who has the license for SAP HANA Database, does he have other database options for installing the Solution Manager that are covered by the HANA license ?
Kind Regards,
Mohamed Awny

Well if you can find the solution manager software for a DB other than HANA in service market then you can install.
You can check this by checking the service market SAP Technology Components" ==> SAP SOLUTION MANAGER" ==> SAP SOLUTION MANAGER 7.1
HANA is so fast why choose another DB?
