HR Upgrade from 4.6c to ECC 6.0

Hi,
   I am currently about to start a HR Upgrade project from 4.6c to ECC 6.0. Does anyone have  the checklist of activities to be followed during upgrade process or any plan for upgrade process in detail. Anyone involved in upgrades pls do send across.
Regards
Jyothi

Hi,
We have recently upgraded from 4.6C to ECC 5.0. Checklist would be like...during upgrade you need to clear SPAU, there you may get cought in Schema, Rule, Functions,,you need to check there. Also check all User exits & BADI's.
After upgrade you need to check all user defined variants properly since some screen might have changed during upgrade. Also check WT characteristics, since some standard WT charactersistics have been changed.
Apart from this, there was no major issue in our upgrade. It went on smooth.
Hope this helps.
Thanks,
Sarika.

    Hi,
    Can any one please post some potential areas/questions that will be asked for upgrade projects from 4.7 to ECC6.0
    Points will be awarded.
    Thanks

    Hi Frank,
      this is good question,  why because sap upgrades from 4.6b to ecc 6.0 is very risky.
      take one example , in 4.5b , me21n application having 620 screen where as in ecc 6.0 having 9000 screen . that time we will take care of it.
       check the obsolete function modules ,  4.5b , having ws_upload, ws_download.... use cl_gui_frontend_services , under these having differnt type of methods.
      once you change the code in ecc , go to tranx : SLIN check the error where it is exact.

  • Top-Down Distribution - tcode KE28 (release upgrade from 4.6 to ECC 6.0)

    All,
    we are performing a release upgrade from 4.6 to ECC 6.0 and we have a problem with the tcode KE28.
    The variant already set up in the system don't match with the selection fields present in the screen, and the following message is shown:
    Message no. KG346
    The variant does not adhere to the current Customizing setup
    We have saved the variant again, and no problem are present, but the error message refers also to Customizing setup.
    Is there a section in the Customizing where it is possible set up the field to show in the initial screen or the new fields (All Valuation Views, Legal Valuation View and Profit Center Valuation View) are due to the release upgrade?
    If yes, do you know the transaction/path?
    Thanks in advance for your collaboration.

  • Performance issue after Upgrade from 4.7 to ECC 6.0 with a select query

    Hi All,
    There is a Performance issue after Upgrade from 4.7 to ECC 6.0 with a select query in a report painter.
    This query is working fine when executed in 4.7 system where as it is running for more time in ECC6.0.
    Select query is on the table COSP.
    SELECT (FIELD_LIST)
            INTO CORRESPONDING FIELDS OF TABLE I_COSP PACKAGE SIZE 1000
            FROM  COSP CLIENT SPECIFIED
            WHERE GJAHR IN SELR_GJAHR
              AND KSTAR IN SELR_KSTAR
              AND LEDNR EQ '00'
              AND OBJNR IN SELR_OBJNR
              AND PERBL IN SELR_PERBL
              AND VERSN IN SELR_VERSN
              AND WRTTP IN SELR_WRTTP
              AND MANDT IN MANDTTAB
            GROUP BY (GROUP_LIST).
       LOOP AT I_COSP      .
         COSP                           = I_COSP      .
         PERFORM PCOSP       USING I_COSP-_COUNTER.
         CLEAR: $RWTAB, COSP                          .
         CLEAR CCR1S                         .
       ENDLOOP.
    ENDSELECT.
    I have checked with the table indexes, they were same as in 4.7 system.
    What can be the reson for the difference in execution time. How can this be reduced without adjusting the select query.
    Thanks in advance for the responses.
    Regards,
    Dedeepya.

    Hi,
    ohhhhh....... lots of problems in select query......this is not the way you should write it.
    Some generic comments:
    1. never use SELECT
                       endselect.
       SELECT
      into table
       for all entries in table
      where.
       use perform statment after this selection.
    2. Do not use into corresponding fields. use exact structure type.
    3. use proper sequence of fields in the where condition so that it helps table go according to indexes.
        e.g in your case
              sequence should be
    LEDNR
    OBJNR
    GJAHR
    WRTTP
    VERSN
    KSTAR
    HRKFT
    VRGNG
    VBUND
    PARGB
    BEKNZ
    TWAER
    PERBL
    sequence should be same as defined in table.
    Always keep select query as simple as possible and perform all other calculations etc. afterwords.
    I hope it helps.

    Pranaya

    For Functionality Differences pls refer to the below site -
    http://solutionbrowser.erp.sap.fmpmedia.com/
    After opening the site, please select the Source Release Version which is 4.6 b Then Select the Target Release Version which is "mySAP ERP 2005" or ECC 6.0
    Select the Solution Area like Financials, Human Capital Management, Sales....
    Select module like MM, PP, SD, and QM.....
    Click on Search
    then it displays the Release Version and the Delta Functionality. Which can be downloaded to a word document if required.
    And also check the release notes of ECC 6.0 in service.sap.com.
    When you are upgrading from 4.6C to ECC6
    Nothing major, follow the same process you'd follow if you were updating PI service packs in R/3 or enhancing data sources. Empty queues in RSA7 and lbwq. Also empty setup tables through lbwg as the upgrade doesn't like it if these tables contain data. This is all on the R/3 side (although you empty RSA7 by running each delta TWICE in BW).
    To transfer queues from lbwq to rsa7, execute jobs through LO cockpit (lbwe).
    Some of your data sources could also be using sm13 instead of lbwq, so do check it out as well.
    For installing ECC 6.0 you required a solution manager key. With out solution manager key you cannot install ECC6.0.
    For ECC 6.0 is called net weaver component here you have ABAP+JAVA stack.
    ECC6.0 supports UNCODE.
    For installing 4.6 you don't require solution manager key. It only having ABAP stack.
    4.6C supports NONUNICODE.
    Major difference is ECC6 is netwear product having WASJAVA+ABAP
    secondly support unicode apart from this we have other diff. you can get form master guide from service.sap.com/instguides.
    Please go through the link that is shown here and if there is any doubts then feel free to ask.

  • Issues during technical upgrade from 4.6c to ecc 6.0

    Hi
    We are doing a technical upgrade from 4.6C to ECC 6.0. Some transactions in QM module when tested in ECC 6.0 test client give a abap termination message (or dump) and certain transactions like qs42,46, qa18, qs34 etc do not get executed (error = no entry foound for......) and similarly in PP-PI module transactions like C203 have similar problems, even though master data does exist. What should I look for?  Can somebody pl. give details on configuration checks and the OSS notes from a functional point of view for a technical upgrade?
    For certain transactions I get the error message - "Central system of distribution SM-P06CLNT430_TRUSTED is unreachable RFC destination SM_P06CLNT430_Trusted does not exist" - what does this mean?
    thanks
    BE

    Hi,
    1. Have you done successfull installation from 4.6C to ECC 6.0 at the time of PrePare ans SAPUP?
    2. Check SP' for QM and PP-PI modules from http://service.sap.com/sp-stacks.
    3. Configure RFC connections correctly, SM_<SID>CLNT<No>_Trusted automatically created, not manually.

    Hi,

  • Schema error after upgrade from 4.6C to ECC 5.0

    Hi all,
    We have recently upgraded from 4.6C to ECC 5.0. We are having problem in payroll run. When I did a syntax check in schema, I got "UDPM" rule doesn't exist. I checked, this rule is present in 4.6C. This is the standard rule. If I am right, it should have come with upgrade right?
    or SAP has changed this? From where Can I get the info about this?
    Also similar error I got in Function 'USTAX' parameter 3 is not allowed. If I remove that parameter, I don't know what is the implication of that.
    I checked for SAP notes. I did not find anything.
    Please let me know if any of you have come with such situation.
    Thanks in advance.
    Sarika.

    Hi Sarika,
    We are also in a similar transition i.e. 4.6C to mysap Ecc5.0 . But we are on Canadian Payroll.
    I had search OSS and got a PDF document regarding " Upgrading to SAP R/3 Enterprize - A User Guide to Canadian mysap HR Customers" . U may be can find a similar one for US payroll. I can give u mine, but it wont be of any use as it is for Canadian Payroll.
    In Canadian mysap Upgrade , the function P0224 has been replaced by function KXDTM . Although P0024 is still in used in Schema K00T for conversion purposes.
