BAPI_ SALESORDER_CHANGE in MY SAP ERP 2005- Issues

Hi Gurus,
We are trying to change a Sales order using the BAPI : BAPI_ SALESORDER_CHANGE in a Zprogram .
The program works fine in SAP 4.5B version. But in MY SAP ERP 2005, we get error with the BAPI.
Scenario : The BAPI is working when the Purchase Order number is not maintained in the Sales Order.
It throws the Error "purchase order number in document number already exist" when the Purchase order number is there in the Sales Oder.
We executed the BAPI from SE37 by passing the parameters in the program and we got the same error mentioned above. Could you please guide .
Thanks in Advance,
S.Roseline

Applied an SAP note for the BAPI BAPI_SALESORDER_CHANGE.

ISR NATIVE CONTROLS ERP -2005 is not working in ECC 6.0, MSS 1.0 Version

Hi,
Does anybody knows, why the ISR Controls for ERP 2005 is not working properly. We utilized the DropDown List Controls, we binded to the correct field in the FORM. We have filled the ADDITIONAL_DATA table, on the SET_ADDITIONAL_VALUES method also, to populate .
The DropDown values are not populating in runtime.
We are running ECC 6 Version, Basis is on SP12, and Application Platform is on SP09. We have MSS 1.0 for SP 10.
What might be the problem, what do you feel about procedure in ISR Controls binding?
INFO: It doesn't have that SAP-VHLIST , illusion here.
Please guide me , as I am strucked from all ways, any note, patch to apply, any config issue.
thanks,
chitti babu

Hello,
In case of DDLB, apart from the binding, there's something else needs to be done.
Goto binding tab : incase adobe life cycle designer 7.1, a link "Specify item values" is highlighted.
$record.sap-vhlist.FIELDNAME\.DATA\.FIELD.item[*].
Item Text : text
Item Key :key.
This should resolve ths issue.
Hope this helps.

SRM as an add-on to ERP 2005

Hi Experts,
I am interested in the Pro's and Con's regarding SRM as an add-on to ERP 2005.
- what is the limitations? Disadvantages?
- What kind of business situations are suited for this scenario?
- What are the benefits?
I hope you can help me here!
Thanks in advance!
Kind regards
Line Wiuff

Hi,
I'm a current user of the add-on.
My organization had an ITS implementation for Purchase Requisition in 4.6 and decided to migrate to ECC6.0 with SRM 5.5 instead of maintaining the old development (I joined at testing phase).
Our scenario is currently limited to shopping carts and customizing was intentionnally kept at minimum level.
The go live happened in November last year.
We have 600+ users among which 100 approvers.
My feedback:
--- integration with HR was not an easy job (mainly because we had Organization Management in our previous implementation).
- we had a big performance issue because our users had been spammed internally by PSM module for 3 years (the system didn't manage to display mailbox with 10'000+ documents, solved by cleaning...),
- given that previously users were creating PR the transition was not really smooth (they re-order similar tings all the time),
- still struggling with an address issue (address on each line of the printed PO if generated from more than one shopping cart). In theory I understand the back-end can be fed with whatever we want but we're not there yet (we may miss MM expertise though).
- quite a lots of notes to apply.
+ it enabled us a direct connection to PSM (Public Sector Management) which is really good in our context (custom n-step approval, use of a BADI),
++ we plan some B2B connection, I already tested it and it was really cool (you shop on another web site, and when you check out there is almost a PO).
++ OSS support good.

Anne

System Crash during ERP 2005 (ECC 6.0) SR2 ABAP+JAVA installation

Hi all,
I am fairly new to this fascinating world of SAP BASIS and recently got hit by an issue which I faced during an ERP 2005 SR2 (ECC 6.0) ABAP+JAVA installation.
My Installation Particulars:
1. OS: Windows Server 2003 R2 (32-bit)
2. DB: Oracle 10.2.0.2
3. RAM: 2 GB
4. Installation type: LOCAL and CENTRAL SYSTEM INSTALLATION.
I have tried the installation thrice and each time the IMPORT ABAP step (phase 18) comes, 3 parallel IMPORT JOBS runs and after few of them completes the system restarts or crashes abruptly. So as a matter of fact, the R3LOAD which were running had to stop without getting completed, so whenever I start from old installation, the INSTALLATION MASTER throws error and I had to start a new installation. then again, during this phase the system/server/computer crashes.
The minimum RAM requirement for this ERP installation is 3 GB, so probably 2 GB is not being able to cope up the pressure of the R3LOAD jobs...well, i am not sure of that!
During the parameter specification, at the DATABASE EXPORT screen I have specified 3 parallel jobs. Well, the question which I have are as follows:
1. Will I reduce the number of PARALLEL JOBS to 1 or 2, without going with the default value of 3, in order to avoid these crashes?
2. Can I still install the SAP with 2 GB RAM?
Please do help...

Thanks everyone for your valuable replies.
Well, as far as the OS is concerned, this version (ERP 2005 SR2), is compatible on 32-bit OS also. I am confirmed because I have done this installation on different machines also, prior to this installation, where my OS was 32 bit, but RAM was 4 GB. That is why, I am presuming this to be a hardware issue.
By CRASH, I mean during that step the computer shuts down abruptly by itself.
Well, I am starting the installation again, by specifying only 1 parallel job. Let's see if it works or not! If it doesn't then I will have to increase the RAM surely.
Anyways, if you have anymore informations to share regarding this issue please feel free. I will soon post the UPDATE on this thread.
Thanks and Happy New Year to all of you.

Set up Business Connector within SAP ERP 2005

Hello!
Which SPRO-Activity is responsible for setting up Business Connector within SAP ERP 2005 (only ABAP-Stack)?
What is the effort should be regarded for this issue?
Thank you very much!
regards
Thom

Hi Tony,
are you using gcj from Red Hat as Java? You can check this by
rpm -qf `which java`
This should point to either Sun JDK 1.4.2 for i386 and IA64 or IBM JDK 1.4.2 for x86_64
Thanks,
Hannes

Composite/Interactive Models and ERP 2005 SP05

We have downloaded the Composite/Interactive models developed for the MIC application. These allow direct input into the model by the user to update the ratings, report issues, and update the sign-off status. These models are based on a series of BAPIs beginning FOPC_ESA. These BAPIs were included with SP05 for ERP 2005. We currently are at SP04, and, because of interdependency with other projects currently being implemented, it will be impossible for us to go to SP05 at this time. Does anybody know of a way to load these BAPIs manually or through a Note, which would allow us to make use of these models?

Report RFKLBU10: Missing Parameter for Logical filename in Release ERP 2005

Hello Experts,
Report RFKLBU10 in Sap Release 4.6c hat a parameter "Old dataset logical name".
The new version of this report in SAP Release ERP 2005 there is no such parameter.
Is this a SAP-Bug ?
Best regards,
Mike

There are no Export or Print events accessible for the viewer
Since it sounds like you are creating the reportdocument object in your click event, the settings on this object become out of scope on successive postbacks executed by other events.
to get around this without major changes, you can place your "report" object in session in this event and retrieve it from session on successive postbacks. This should solve your problems around navigation, printing and exporting. What you will need to do is check if the session object exists (usually in page_load or page_initialze) and if so, retrieve it from session and bind it to the viewer's reportsource. If the session object does not exist, then do nothing (ie you have not clicked your button yet that retrieves the parameter values from session and loads the report). Also, in your click event you can check if the report session object exists and if so, remove it so that it can be re-created with your new parameter values (ie i'm assuming the only time you want to set parameter values is in this event).

Hi Basis,
Note 848950/851251 may solve your problems.
If problem persists, then try copying the CD again to dump location and restart the installation , it appears that sapinst is not able to open jar file.
Hope this is useful

Upgrade batch inputs from 4.6C to mySAP ERP 2005

Hi,
we are planning to upgrade from 4.6C to mySAP ERP 2005 (ECC 6.0). We are using batch input/call transaction in various (interface) programs (primarily in modules SD, MM, CS/SM, FI, CO). I would be grateful for any information that helps to estimate the effort to upgrade our batch input code. In which areas/modules/transactions did you encounter problems with batch inputs? How severe were these problems (one or two fields moved to another screen, or major redesign)? How did you address these problems (change BI or convert code to use BAPI)?
Thank you
Thomas

Hi thomas,
we were working on batch input's and our scenario is something like convertion of bdc's from 4.5b to ECC5. well, it was a long process of upgradation. and coming to the part of BDC's
Q) any information that helps to estimate the effort to upgrade our batch input code.
   we had 300 BDC's to convert from 4.5b to ECC5 and with a ten member team of ABAP experts it took us 30 working days to complete the process.
Q) In which areas/modules/transactions did you encounter problems with batch inputs?
   Mostly, we had problems from FI and something like in Revenue recognition process. The problems comes, when the whole transactions screens changes for the process. at this time we have to write completly a new BDC's. if we have right functional specifications and functional experts, it will be easy to convert BDC's.
Q) How severe were these problems (one or two fields moved to another screen, or major redesign)?
    As i have mentioned, out of 300 almost 25 to 50 were minor changes rest were huge changes. a completely new BDC's. the point here is, we were updating from 4.5b to ECC5. it might not be this scenario for 4.6c to ECC5
Q) How did you address these problems (change BI or convert code to use BAPI)?
   well, this is were we are curently working now. and curently there are 4 scenarios (and may be more in the future) were we have to replace three BDC's which are used for material master creation and make it into one bapi satisfying all the conditions of BDC's. actually, we have to find a BAPI( which i couldn't find) so, i have created a bapi. and tougher part is writing exceptions as we cannot write exceptions as we do in function module.
hope this is relavent to what you have asked.
