Mass Upload of user favourites from 4.6 to ERP 6.0

We have a client who is Upgrading from 4.6c to ERP 6.0
All of the users use their favourites for the transactions that they use.
We are aware of the functionality to extract and upload the favs, however this will involve users.
Is there a way to MASS upload all of the favs into ERP 6.0?
What tables, structures are the favs held in?
How have you overcome this in other Upgrade projects?

Hi Mark,
Are you going to do an Upgrade or will you be doing a re-implementation and data migration?
If you are upgrading the favourites will still be available to the users in the target system after the upgrade.
If you are re-implementing I am not sure there is a standard way for mass export/import.
What I would suggest is stepping through function Module  MENU_FAVORITES_DOWNLOAD and try to simulate this for all users.
Kind regards,
Ronald G. Meyer

  • Mass upload of user photos in EP

    Hi All,
    I have to do a mass upload of user photos in EP. I tried it in two ways.
    1.     In a network folder say
    173.XX.XX.XXUserPhotos, I stored the photos and then I used the Mass photo upload iview, which is available inside collaboration demo role.
    2.     I created a new task and given the below parameters,
    1.     Task nameà MyPhotUpload
    2.     Upload from folder à
    173.XX.XX.XXUserPhotos
    3.     Photo Typeà NORMAL
    I clicked on save and then I run the task. I didnu2019t got any errors, at the same time I didnu2019t got any output also.
    Then I tried it this way.
    I created a nework path in System Administration à System Configuration à KM à CMà Global Services à Network Path (really sorry if I am being stupid)
    Here I specified the network path and the login credential required to access this folder and named this network path as u201CMyNetWrkPathu201D
    Now, I came back to mass upload ivew, there I deleted the old task and created a new task with
    a.     Task Name à MyPhotoUpload2
    b.     Upload from folder à MyNetWrkPath
    c.     Photo Typeà NORMAL
    I clicked on Save and then I run the task. Again the same result. No errors no success.
    PS: I already specified the photo type check and photo size check in System Administration à System Configuration à KM à CMà Global Services àUserPhoto
    Somebody please help me.

    Hi,
    it seems the portal doesn't have permissions to read contents from this physical folder.
    Try to import a sample photo with "apply checked conditions" unchecked in mass upload iView.
    If that doesn't help then try to increase the trace level to INFO for this app in Visual Administrator and see what is causing
    the problems.
    The location is com.sap.netweaver.kmc.people.photo.admin .
    Eventuallly try to import files from local folder instead of network share.
    Hope this helps.

  • Mass Upload of Photos in Portal

    Hi,
    I am trying to do mass upload of JPEG Photos.
    I have tried using User Self Service and that works fine.
    Reqmnt is that administrator needs to upload 100 photos as a bulk for each user.
    I have read the document on help.sap.com and it certainly gave me few insights but if anyone has done this before, i would like to steps on how to go about doing this.

    Hi;
    Assign yourself to the role
    pcd:portal_content/com.sap.pct/Collaboration/DemoRole
    After that you will have the Link
    "Collaboration Demo\People Centric"
    This gives you the possibility to make a manual or
    mass upload of user photos.

  • Scheduled automatic upload of roles/user mapping from R/3 to EP6

    EP6.0 offers a nice tool to <b>upload roles</b> together with the <b>user mapping</b> from an R/3 backend system to the portal. This works very well, but in an environment where the user mapping happens on the backend system this <b>manual</b> process has to be repeated to keep the user mapping up to date.
    It would be very useful if this process could run in <b>batch mode</b> and could be <b>scheduled</b>. Does anyone has a solution for this problem?
    The way the portal user administration is designed works maybe very good for small companies, but for large companies with many users a <b>batch upload tool</b> is really needed!
    <b>People from SAP</b> have told me that they are thinking about such a tool, but the pressure from the customers is not high enough to put it on their project list. So maybe we can <b>unite forces</b> to increase pressure on SAP project management.

    Dear Krishna,
    There are a few solutions for this problem and we are investigating some of them now:
    - you can use an LDAP server. Transfer users and the groups to which they belong from the R3 system to LDAP. The groups correspond to the roles the users have. The portal can use the groups on the LDAP server. The portal roles have to be attached to the groups and not to the users.
    - we are also thinking about writing a JAVA program that automizes the manual role upload that SAP delivers in the portal. The KM part of the portal contains a scheduler which can be used to schedule the upload of uesr mappings from R3 to the portal.
    - you can also make an ABAP web service that is called from a program on the portal to transfer the usermapping. The program makes use of the UME API.
    - Or you can make an ABAP program on R3 that calls a JAVA program on the portal that makes use of the UME API to store the user mapping on the portal.
    your iview question:
    Maybe you can change the default setting for the preferred GUI in the master iview that is used for the creation of the iviews. When you create a new iview the portal creates a delta link based on the master iview., so when you change the master iview all new created iview based on the master iview will have the correct setting immediately.
    Best regards,

    Hello,

    USER.CORP_LDAP.emp10110=10110
    b) 10010.JPG
    After starting the task the photo was not updated and there was nothing in the application log!?
    What could be the problem? I can add the file manually but not through mass upload iview.
    Has anybody used the User Photo Administration (mass upload) iview ?
    Thanks in advance

    Hi,
    Instead of use User Photo Administration (Mass upload) using a mapping.properties file, forget it and use a easy DOS script (lots of examples on google) to rename all files on your folder with the user ID of employees. Then you'll get a folder with the employees pictures with ID user as name file.
    If  your pictures are set like Required Picture Settings on your system(size,dimensions,...) , now you will upload files without problems directly.

  • Mass User Creation from Excel

    Hi,
    May i know is it possible to mass create user in ecc6 with details(name, password, role) from excel?
    May I know the steps to do this?
    thank you.

    Hi Alex.
    From your post, I think you are using an R/3 system. We are using the SAP-CRM 5.0 server. Do the same things apply?
    Someone had suggested that i need to enter A in the user type. But i am unable to understand where to enter 'A' for the dialog users. It is not prompting me anywhere to enter an alphabet. i just have to select the user type from the drop down provided. These are the steps i am following:
    1. After activating ecatt in my system, i am accessing tr. SECATT and giving the required details and am starting the recording session. In that, after giving the login details, i am selecting 'Dialog' from the dropdown menu. After the recording is done, i am saving it and exiting.
    2. then reentering the test script i just created, i used the simulator and gave all the parameters. but in user type, i could not give anything different from dialog.
    3. then accessing the test configurator, i extracted the .txt file, opened with the excel sheet, and gave all the details. Here too, it did not have a column for user type.
    Could you just help me in this regard?

  • Mass upload through Web Dynpro application possible?

    We want to develop a custom aplication with Web Dynpro ABAP for master data maintenance. About 90 % will be done manually but we also want to have the possibility to do mass uploads (comparable with LSMW's in SAP R3 for win gui transactions: users send us a spreadsheet and we load it for them using a LSMW). I found one option by building Adobe Interactive form offline scenario using xml messages but I don't want to be forced to use Adobe only to enable mass uploads that will only happen in 10 % of the cases.
    I am loking forward to your suggestions!
    kind regards
    Angelique Heutinck

    I got a very useful answer from Thomas Jung (SAP) via a site he did setup with a couple of other SAP experts, also see http://enterprisegeeks.com/blog/2009/03/31/abap-freak-show-april-1st-acf-updownload-in-web-dynpro-abap/comment-page-1/
    My question:
    I think this new UI element ACFUpDownload cannot be used to do mass uploads/updates of data that need to be stored in SAP tables?
    Answer Thomas:
    This UI element is just about the transfer of data from the client machine to the server. It has nothing to do with how the data is used or processed after upload. Think of it as the equal to the CL_GUI_FRONTEND_SERVICES class and methods GUI_UPLOAD and GUI_DOWNLOAD.
    My question:
    Is there a tool like LSMW, CATT, eCATT that we can use for recording webenabled transactions (applications developed in Web Dynpro ABAP)?
    Answer Thomas:
    You shouldnu2019t need a tool like LSMW, CATT, eCATT that is tied to the user interface. With WDA you should be using MVC to design your application. This is part of the reason for MVC so that you have a clear separation of the model - business logic. You should always have a reusable class that can be called to input and create data with the same validations without going through the user interface. This is the process that SAP is following as we create new WDA screens. We use the enterprise services and their implementation classes as the Model for the WD Components. This ensures that you always have a clear API to use to mass import data.
    Although we wouldnu2019t recommend doing any kind of mass data load via the user interface any longer - eCATT will be supported for automated testing of Web Dynpro ABAP applications as of NetWeaver 7.0 Enhancement Package 2.

  • IProcurement - "mass upload" for non-catalog request

    I want to find a way to do a "mass upload" when creating a non-catalog request.
    Some back ground; I am not A DBA or a software developer; I am an engineering manager. I work for a large company and have responsibilities for creating Purchase Requisitions. I work from vendor quotes that contain many lines items, and always do non-catalog request because I often get special pricing or simply have non-catalog items. There are several fields on the requisition web page that need to be populated and it's quite cumbersome and time consuming to copy and paste 6 different data fields for 50+ line items. Since these are fields on a web page that correlate to some back end database there must be a way to populate them more quickly and easily, with an upload template, or via an API.
    It is very, very difficult to find the proper internal resources to help me address this problem, and when I do find the right people I'm pretty sure I'll be told "it can't be done" I don't believe it can't be done. It may be difficult, it may require some work, it may require some development efforts, but from a purely technical point of view, populating multiple data fields with minimal user input is certainly doable. I want to be armed with solutions when I finally find the right people at my company. So, anybody out there figure this one out already? Once I do I'll be glad to share but hoping it's a know and fixed issue.
    Thanks!!

    You are looking for the requisitions Open Interface.
    Get this PDF from the documentation for release 11* and read chapter 6, it will guide you through the import process.
    *For some reason this document is not available for newer releases (11i, 12), so you would rely on Metalink to look for notes.

    Yes. I would clarify your statement about the "shared" iTunes Library though. If you want each iOS device to have its own music library, you should create separate user accounts for them. Read:
