ABAP Add-On Assembly Kit

Hi all,
How to use ABAP Add-on Assembly Kit in SAP R3 (or MiniSAP). I want package code in ABAP and then install for other system.
Pls help me.
Thanks so much.

Did you saw this [small|https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/go/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/fbcef0fb-0801-0010-9b82-ad3c4104d458] document?

Trying to deliver a BI7.0 development using the Add On Assembly Kit (AAK)

Hi everybody,
I have a major problem using the AAK.
At the beginning of our development we made as mistake; i know now that you are supposed to do your development using either a Custom system or a Custom user to be able to generate D-Versions of objects. Well we have not done so and now have to generate the D-Versions afterwards.
What I did so far is changing the Package of the desired Objects to $TMP, so a Custom User is able to activate them and generate the D-Version. But now the problems occur.
1. We have eight Cubes. I have them successfully activated; i know this, because in the table TADIR I can see the D-Versions of my Cubes. But when I try to add the desired Cubes as a normal User in the AAK tool and select DCUB, i am not able to see them. That is very strange because for all my InfoObjects it worked fine.
My question is: On what does it depend if a normal User can add D-Versions of the Cubes using the AAK?
2. I also tried to activate Transformations with my CustomUser, but that did not work at all. There is always an error message telling me that an error occurred while activating.
I don't want to rebuild the whole application again. I hope there is someone out there who knows the answer.
With best regards
Mark

The replicator has told me that in Toast I need to burn the data DVD as "DVD-ROM (UDF)" format.
They say that it should work. If it doesn't, then you're right...might as well go without copyprotection.
I know that knowledgable people will copy the DVD in 2 seconds, but for some reason it just feels better knowing that you tried to stop it!

ABAP Add-on bug on EhP0

Hi all,
Does anybody know if has been posted a solution for the bug in the ABAP Add-on on Ehp0?
Few month ago, I posted a thread (Internal Implementation - Demo Software) and now we must to know if Nakisa or SAP have solved this issue.
Thanks and best regards

This bug is infuriating! I have had it (and reported it) twice now.
The way around it is to install the 3.0 original Add On and then upgrade to the 3.0 SP1 version.
This is the way I did it at a client recently:
Add On Installation
3.0 Add On AOI B600020610634_0000011.PAT u2013 password 8281CA33B6
3.0 SP1 Add On AOU B600020610634_0000022.PAT u2013 password F2F4C333B1
Transport Installation
Then imported transport VSN301_TPO_ECC6_AOI.zip (control file and data file).
Regards,
Stephen

ABAP Add-on certification on sub-contractor system

Hi all,
My company has some ABAP Add-on, which was developed for us by an outsourcing contractor on his system based on our design and instructions.
This Add-on and all code sources are our property of course.
Now we wish to certify this ABAP Add-on on our contractor system but the certification needs to be on our company name of course since this is our property.
How can perform such a process?
Thanks for the help,
Roy

Hi Anand,
Has this question ever been answered?
Is it possible to package BC-sets in a PAT file?
if not, how do you package BC-sets for certification?
If yes, how did you manage to do this?
Thanks

Register ABAP Add-On in SLD

We have developed an ABAP add-on (AAK/Saint).
Our add-on is supposed to register itself in the SLD, but we do not know what this means. Is there some metainformation we need to provide along with the add-on, or even some interface we need to implement to provide this information.
Our systems are coupled with the SLD but we do not find our add-on when we install our product.
Any idea?

We have used another library for delpoying it, with this it is working.

Add feature - assembly could not be found error 0x80073701

I am trying to install the SNMP service on this server - succesfully did this on an identical server.
Windows reports back "The request to add or remove features on the specified server failed. The reference assembly could not be found. Error 0x80073701"
This error has been posted in a few places on the forums so I have followed the advice which includes the following:
1) I have run a chkdsk and rebooted.
2) I have run the system file checker (sfc / scannow) and this reported no issues with system integrity.
3) I have run DISM /Online /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth. Reported repair made and I rebooted.
4) I have only the English language pack installed.
On inspecting the CBS log I see these errors, just a sample:

Many thanks for your input.

Hi,
>>I am trying to install the SNMP service on this server
In fact, SNMP is deprecated. Instead, use the Common Information Model (CIM), which is supported by the WS-Management web services protocol and implemented as Windows Remote
Management.
However, we still can use SNMP service on Windows Server 2012. For double check, we can follow the blog below to check whether something is missing during installation process.

Creating add-on deployable package using AAK for ABAP add-on certification

Hi all,
We are planning for ABAP certification next month.
I have some doubts if you can clarify please.
We have our name space registered and AAK is also installed on system.
Now with ABAP custom development we are planning to create Add-on CD using AAK.
For custom development I can use AAK (SSDC & SSDA) to create .PAT installable files.
How to create installable files for customizing i.e. configuration changes ?
We have to create BC-Set using IMG activity and follow upload - download process or any other process to be followed to install configuration changes.
Please provide some documentation for creating installabe files using AAK and BC-Set if available.
Thanks in advance,
Anand

Hi Anand,
Has this question ever been answered?
Is it possible to package BC-sets in a PAT file?
if not, how do you package BC-sets for certification?
If yes, how did you manage to do this?

IP for ABAP ADD-ON

Greetings,
This is a question bothering me for quite sometime, a gentleman told me that developing a product using ABAP is not advisable because of the licensing terms that SAP uses for ABAP, he further told me that you can not own the intellectual property right on your product if it is developed on ABAP. You can only sell a solution to a customer and customer can only use it and SAP can takeover the IP (Intellectual Property right) anytime they want. He sited this as a reason why they are developing their product on Java stack rather than ABAP stack.
Is it true ? Can someone throw some light on this ?

The SAP Software Partner Program is an established program that encompasses all types of qualified application vendors with certified integration and broadly targets all types of software applications and tools that complement SAP solutions.
The Powered by SAP NetWeaver Partner Program is a value-added addendum to our partner programs that is intended for vendors who specifically certify solutions as Powered by SAP NetWeaver. A separate, platform-centric program, the Powered by SAP NetWeaver Partner Program does not require pre-enrollment in the SAP Software Partner Program. The program accommodates the special needs of both a platform ecosystem and vendors who provide solutions based on and certified for the SAP NetWeaver platform.
Independent software vendors (ISVs) can create innovative, high-impact solutions and sales opportunities for the SAP customer ecosystem by becoming Powered by SAP NetWeaver and immediately helping customers lower IT investment costs and risks.
How do I join the Powered by SAP NetWeaver Partner Program?
Please contact us directly at [email protected].
For general information about Powered by SAP NetWeaver, take a look at the resources available at the SAP Developer Network (SDN) site at http://sdn.sap.com.
Will SAP ensure that other partners (and SAP) will not offer solutions that compete with mine?
The Powered by SAP NetWeaver partner program is open to all enterprise software vendors who wish to certify and run their solutions on SAP NetWeaver. Part of being an open ecosystem is open and fair competition among partners, and between SAP and partners. SAP cannot guarantee exclusivity of individual partner solutions, nor can we guarantee that we wont offer competing solutions.
What are the requirements for vendors to join the Powered by SAP NetWeaver Partner Program?
To qualify to become a member of the Powered by SAP NetWeaver Partner Program, you must meet the following minimum criteria:
Have at least one developer trained on SAP NetWeaver technologies.
Deploy your solution according to one of the Powered by SAP NetWeaver qualified certification scenarios and certify it with the SAP Integration and Certification Center (SAP ICC). Qualified Powered by SAP NetWeaver integration scenarios:
Certification of SAP NetWeaver (Web) Application Server (SAP NetWeaver AS, compliant with J2EE or ABAP) and SAP NetWeaver (Enterprise) Portal, or
Certification of XI-Adapter with full integration in SAP (NetWeaver) Exchange Infrastructure (SAP NetWeaver XI), or
Certification of XI-Content integration in SAP NetWeaver XI in combination with SAP NetWeaver Portal (XI Content certification can additional be certified against certain industry standards)
Have at least two sales resources trained on SAP NetWeaver sales messaging.
Have an assigned contact person.
Attend a minimum of one SAP customer event each year.
Actively support positioning SAP NetWeaver as an open technology platform.
Adhere to SAP logo and branding guidelines.
What specific benefits will I receive if I join the Powered by SAP NetWeaver Partner Program?
The Powered by SAP NetWeaver Partner Program offers many benefits. By becoming a certified Powered by SAP NetWeaver partner, you and other certified ISVs will be able to share knowledge and collaborate with SAP at the most cost-effective level to develop, integrate, and deploy world-class solutions that are supported by SAP business planning, enablement, and go-to-market resources and that drive innovation and growth. Another benefit of solutions that are Powered by SAP NetWeaver is their inherent flexibility. Enterprise Services Architecture, the SAP blueprint for service-oriented business solutions, allows you to integrate people, information, and processes and create solutions that enhance and extend current touch points while maintaining open standards and interoperability with other platforms.
ISVs that are certified Powered by SAP NetWeaver partners can reduce their customers total cost of ownership (TCO) and risk by adopting the platform that is quickly becoming the de facto standard among the Global 1,000: the mySAP Business Suite family of business solutions, which are powered by SAP NetWeaver.
The following are some of the benefits of the Powered by SAP NetWeaver Partner Program.
Technology Benefits
Development package
SAP NetWeaver test and development licenses (available)
SAP NetWeaver training (available)
Two days of consulting support (available)
Remote consulting (available)
Sneak preview of new SAP NetWeaver technology and early participation in SAP partner go-to-market initiatives
Marketing and Sales Benefits
Use of Powered by SAP NetWeaver logo
Sales kit templates, such as solution brief
Inclusion in the SAP Partner Directory, available to SAP field personnel, customers, and partners
A prominent web site profile
Access to the online/downloadable SAP NetWeaver Partner Playbook for ISVs
Press release support announcing customer wins (optional)

Inclusion in the SAP NetWeaver Partner Solution Catalog
As a Powered by SAP NetWeaver partner, how will information about my certified solution reach SAP customers and account executives?
SAP provides many avenues for members of the Powered by SAP NetWeaver Partner Program to communicate the availability of certified products through our sales channels, including the use of marketing materials and events. All members are given the opportunity to establish a high-profile presence on SAP.com that highlights their Powered by SAP NetWeaver solutions. SAP also provides a series of templates for building collateral and demos that are pushed out through the SAP intranet to the entire SAP global field sales force. In addition, SAP makes the library of Powered by SAP NetWeaver solutions available to customers through both online and printed materials distributed by SAP. On occasion, SAP will hold seminars, Webinars, and road shows with select partners to co-market the partners Powered by SAP NetWeaver solutions.
What are the major reasons an ISV should switch now from Oracle, BEA, or Microsoft to SAP NetWeaver?
Most ISVs will support more than one platform. We believe that SAPs unique position as a true Applistructure provider makes SAP NetWeaver compelling as a primary platform of choice for ISVs who are looking to make full use of Enterprise Services Architecture and realize the potential of web services.
What does it cost to become a member of the Powered by SAP NetWeaver Partner Program?
There is no fee to join the Powered by SAP NetWeaver Partner Program. There are, however, costs associated with individual elements of the program, including certification, training, and test/demo software licenses, when needed.
What does the Powered by SAP NetWeaver certification process entail?
Several options exist for third-party applications to become Powered by SAP NetWeaver and achieve integration certification with the Powered by SAP NetWeaver branding. Current opportunities include the following:
Portal Integration
All Powered by SAP NetWeaver endorsed solutions have a certified integration into SAP NetWeaver Portal, usually via certified business packages.*
*[exceptions are SAP NetWeaver XI adapters and some ABAP add-ons]
J2EE Applications
J2EE applications are certified for deployment on the J2EE Engine in SAP NetWeaver AS.
ABAP Add-Ons
ABAP add-on applications are certified for deployment on the ABAP stack of SAP NetWeaver AS and proper packaging via the ABAP add-on assembly kit. Some SAP NetWeaver Portal integrations may be accomplished via SAP GUI for HTML instead of the business package integration mentioned above.
SAP NetWeaver XI Adapters
SAP XI adapters leverage the easy and efficient integration of third-party applications on the process and content level via the SAP NetWeaver Exchange Infrastructure component.
SAP NetWeaver XI Content
SAP NetWeaver Exchange Infrastructure offers a complete EAI solution that integrates SAP business system applications as well as non-SAP business solutions (A2A and B2B scenarios). SAP XI content includes all information and knowledge necessary to enable the integration of applications and business processes (collaboration knowledge). Additional certification of XI Content for interoperability with industry standards is also available.
Details of the certification process can be found in the accompanying Powered by SAP NetWeaver Partner Program presentation.
What technical assistance will I receive along the way?
We offer three types of technical assistance:
The SAP Developer Network (SDN) web site: SDN is a community of fellow developers who work with SAP NetWeaver technologies. Please join this community to participate in online forums, Webcasts, and Weblogs around SAP NetWeaver. On SDN you will also find a dedicated SAP ICC Web site containing documentation materials for all integration scenarios above.
SAP Education: SAP education offers basic training for SAP NetWeaver and its different components. Please check the ICC web site on SDN for recommended training classes.
For companies with a valid certification agreement with SAP ICC: SAP assigns an SAP ICC technical consultant(s) to each ISV to provide integration-certification specific education and knowledge transfer in SAP NetWeaver. SAP ICC offers integration consulting and can provide certification testing either remotely or on-site at the SAP ICC certification lab.
What software and licenses do I need?
We provide free trial licenses of software components for development and testing (J2EE engine, SAP NetWeaver Portal, SAP NetWeaver Developer tool, and portal development kit (PDK) on SDN).
SAP sales offices provide in-house licenses for example, ABAP development workbench and SAP Partner Connectivity Kit for SAP NetWeaver XI adapters.
The ICC provides hosted test systems, SAP XI and back-end SAP ERP systems suitable for XI Content certification
How long will it take to complete the Powered by SAP NetWeaver certifications?
The complexity of the application and the integration scenario you select generally determines the timeline. For J2EE deployment, our experience indicates that the average time it takes for certification is three weeks. SAP NetWeaver Portal and iView window and business package integration takes another three weeks. Previous experience integrating with enterprise portals via iView windows or portlets and deploying on J2EE application servers has proven helpful. The duration may therefore greatly differ from vendor to vendor. As a rough estimate for ABAP add-on and SAP NetWeaver XI adapter certification, approximately two to six months are needed to complete a project from registration to publication.
We currently run our application on the IBM WebSphere Application Server (or the BEA WebLogic platform), and customers are very happy with that. Why should we support SAP NetWeaver AS, which is newer and less well-known?
ISVs can reduce their customers TCO and risk by adopting a platform that is quickly becoming the de facto standard among Global 1,000 customers: mySAP Business Suite, powered by SAP NetWeaver. Additionally, SAP NetWeaver is the technology foundation for all new SAP products going forward. As such, it will be implemented at more than 60,000 global SAP installations. Partners can take advantage of this rapidly growing ecosystem by providing customers with solutions that can quickly integrate with SAP NetWeaver.
You should also browse through the information in the SAP/J2EE migration kit.
Why are there both Powered by SAP NetWeaver solutions from SAP and Powered by SAP NetWeaver partner solutions?
SAP is using SAP NetWeaver as the technology platform to power all SAP solutions, including mySAP ERP, mySAP CRM, SAP Industry Solutions and SAP xApps. Partners can take advantage of the large and growing installed base of SAP NetWeaver, and leverage the platform that is already installed, thereby lowering the implementation costs of their Powered by SAP NetWeaver solutions and lowering the customers TCO (total cost of ownership). SAP-built Powered by SAP NetWeaver solutions will therefore run side-by-side with partner-built Powered by SAP NetWeaver solutions.
What is the difference between Powered by SAP NetWeaver solutions and the SAP xApps portfolio of packaged composite applications?
Except for SAP NetWeaver XI adapters, a certified Powered by SAP NetWeaver solution can be almost any type of enterprise application that runs on SAP NetWeaver AS and integrates with SAP NetWeaver Portal as the user interface. On top of that, the SAP xApps packaged composite applications meet the requirements of Powered by SAP NetWeaver and are consistent with the architecture, features, and functions of a true composite application.
SAP xApps composite applications combine web services and data from multiple systems in an application design made possible by the SAP Composite Application Framework tool within the SAP NetWeaver platform. This framework includes the methodology, tools, and run-time environment to develop composite applications. It provides a consistent object model and a rich user experience, and it gives developers a productive way to create composite applications on top of a set of heterogeneous applications. In addition, SAP xApps composite applications are uniquely differentiated in that they are innovative and highly complementary to SAP applications.
Where can I find more technical information about SAP NetWeaver?
SDN is a knowledge and collaboration environment for the SAP community that is developing and implementing within the SAP NetWeaver technology platform. You can find it on the SDN homepage.
For information on SAP ICC, go to Services on SDN and select Integration & Certification.
SAP NetWeaver Portal Business Package Integration
What is required for a business package to pass certification?
All requirements of the business package certification are specified in the test plan, which can be requested from your SAP ICC. The technical requirements for successful certification of a business package include:
Support single sign-on (SSO) to SAP NetWeaver Portal (where applicable).
Adhere to the SAP NetWeaver Portal look and feel (branding)
Provide full support for at least one web browser that is also supported by SAP NetWeaver Portal.
What tools can I use to develop a business package?
We recommend using SAP NetWeaver Development Studio as the integrated development environment (IDE) for your development. In addition, SAP provides the Portal Development Kit (PDK), which provides a wealth of documentation, tutorials, and tools to help you with your content development. The PDK for the Java platform, as well as the PDK for the .NET platform, can be downloaded free from SDN for SAP NetWeaver Portal 5 (only Java) and SAP NetWeaver Portal 6 - see the SDN Download Catalog.
Our application does not require authentication. Do we still need to support SSO requirements for business package certification?
No. The basic idea behind the SSO requirement is to eliminate the need for further manual authentications for an end user who has already logged on to SAP NetWeaver Portal. If your back end (and thus the business package) does not need to authenticate users, this requirement does not apply to your business package.
How can a business package support SSO with SAP NetWeaver Portal?
A business package can implement SSO with SAP NetWeaver Portal in either of the following ways:
SSO based on user mapping, where the portal user is mapped to another user in the external system of the business package. (For information on user mapping-based SSO, see the SAP Library.
SSO based on SAP logon ticket, where the business package retrieves the information about the logged-on user in SAP NetWeaver Portal and verifies it so that the external system can authenticate the user. (As part of the PDK 6.0, please see the javadoc for the class com.sap.security.api.ticket.TicketVerifier as part of the user management service APIs.)
See the SSO-related Weblogs on the SAP ICC homepage on SDN.
J2EE Deployment
What versions of the J2EE standard does SAP NetWeaver support?
SAP NetWeaver supports two versions of the J2EE standard:
J2EE 1.2: SAP NetWeaver AS 6.20
J2EE 1.3: SAP NetWeaver AS 6.40
What Java Development Kit (JDK) versions does SAP NetWeaver require?
Two JDK versions are required:
SAP NetWeaver AS 6.20: JDK 1.3.1 or higher version, below JDK 1.4
For supported platforms, please contact the SAP ICC.
SAP NetWeaver AS 6.40: JDK 1.4.2_07 or higher version below JDK 1.5
SAP supports the following platforms (latest operating system patches as of March 2005):
Solaris SPARC 32 Bit + 64 Bit
Linux 32 Bit + 64 Bit (Itanium)
Windows 32 Bit + 64 Bit (Itanium)
NOTE: On Windows 2003 server, please make sure you have installed Microsoft Hotfix 841176, to be found at http://support.microsoft.com/?id=841176
For up-to-date requirements, please contact the SAP ICC or visit the SAP ICC homepage.
What do we need to do to have our J2EE application certified?
Certification of deployment on the J2EE Engine in SAP NetWeaver AS has two basic requirements:
First, the third-party J2EE application must be successfully deployed onto the J2EE Engine in SAP NetWeaver AS.
Second, after deployment, the application must run as expected based on a mutually agreed-upon test plan.
How can I deploy my application into the J2EE engine in SAP NetWeaver AS? Does the certification require that we use a particular method?
You can use any of the deployment methods provided by SAP for certification. However, the deployment process will differ, based on the version of the J2EE Engine in SAP NetWeaver AS that you use.
For J2EE Engine 6.20, a J2EE application can be deployed onto SAP NetWeaver AS in four different ways, as documented in the deployment manual.
For J2EE Engine 6.40, refer to the Deployment: Putting It All Together section in SAP online help for a detailed explanation of the different deployment methods in version 6.40 of the J2EE engine and SAP NetWeaver AS.
What enhancements does version 6.40 of the J2EE engine in SAP NetWeaver AS offer versus 6.20?
Find out how version 6.40 of the J2EE Engine in SAP NetWeaver AS improves on 6.20.
Are there any advantages to using SAP NetWeaver AS to develop J2EE applications that run in an SAP solution-based environment (compared to using IBM WebSphere or BEA WebLogic)?
The broad customer base of SAP that has installed the SAP NetWeaver platform can select your J2EE application, which can be deployed and run on the J2EE engine. No other non-SAP/J2EE application server is needed.
How difficult will it be to port my J2EE application that currently runs on IBM WebSphere or BEA WebLogic to SAP NetWeaver AS?
SAP NetWeaver AS is fully J2EE-compatible; if your application was developed following the J2EE specifications, the porting of your J2EE application to SAP NetWeaver AS should be very easy. You should also browse through the information in the J2EE migration kit.
What if I run into problems during the porting/deployment of my J2EE applications to SAP NetWeaver AS?
We recommend that you join SDN and consult its forums and documentation. Here you will find a wealth of experience in installing SAP NetWeaver, porting, and so forth from your fellow developers. If you have a contract for consulting or certification with SAP ICC in place, a designated SAP consultant would help you resolve the problems.
ABAP Deployment
How does an ABAP application become certified as Powered by SAP NetWeaver?
The ABAP application (add-on) needs to meet all of the following criteria:
The add-on must be ABAP-certified on the ABAP stack of SAP NetWeaver AS 6.20 or higher and contain GUI elements that are supported by the SAP GUI for HTML.
If the add-on solution contains additional J2EE parts, these parts must also run on the SAP NetWeaver platform and could be certified for their deployment on the J2EE stack.
The add-on needs to be packaged and distributed using the SAP add-on assembly kit. This tool is available as part of the certification agreement.
What are the benefits to an SAP customer of using an SAP-certified ABAP add-on?
Customers can import and maintain the third-party add-on using the SAP standard transactions SAINT and SPAM. It is assured that the add-on can be used and controlled using SAP NetWeaver Portal.
SAP Netweaver XI Adapters
How does an SAP NetWeaver XI adapter become certified as Powered by SAP NetWeaver?
SAP ICC provides certification opportunities for third-party adapters for the SAP NetWeaver XI adapter framework (NW-XI-AF). These adapters must be implemented as resource adapters of the Java Connector Architecture 1.0. Adapters enable the SAP NetWeaver XI integration engine to talk to different application components or industry standards. Within SAP NetWeaver XI, it is important that the adapters are lightweight, in case the integration directory must be used to keep track of required services and mappings. To pass integration certification testing, SAP NetWeaver XI adapters are also required to build the connection directly to other applications or technical systems and must be deployed to SAP NetWeaver XI.
ISVs can use SAP Partner Connectivity Kit, available through any SAP sales office, as the platform to develop their SAP NetWeaver XI adapters.
What are the benefits to a customer for using an SAP-certified SAP NetWeaver XI adapter?
Customers are assured that the adapter is embedded properly on the SAP NetWeaver platform. Monitoring and configuration of this adapter can be centrally handled via SAP NetWeaver XI. No additional software systems are needed to run an SAP- certified SAP NetWeaver XI adapter.
SAP NetWeaver XI Content Certification
How does a SAP NetWeaver XI content become certified as Powered by SAP NetWeaver?
The XI content needs to meet all of the following criteria:
All XI objects must be embedded in one or more integration scenarios
Optional XI content can be developed supporting industry standards. The industry standard interfaces must be utilized on one side of the integration scenario
ISVs have to specify required functional test cases to ensure the functional correctness of all objects contained in the integration scenarios
ISVs must provide the documentation of the required design and configuration steps
What are the benefits to a customer for using SAP-certified SAP NetWeaver XI content?
XI Content is a key differentiator of our integration solutions. SAP delivers XI content to facilitate the implementation process and thus reduce the TCO for the customers. Customers easily understand the underlying business scenarios of XI content objects.

ABAP development license and AAK install

Hello,
What is the ABAP development license? Is it a license that has to be registered within our SAP system that our development is done on? Or is it just a license number that we reference on our test reports, certification etc? Just wondering what work, if any, is involved here.
AAK install. Is this just a typical install through SAINT?
Thanks.
Regards,
Scott

Hello Roy, Scott and Abraham,
Yes, indeed you will have to maintain such a development landscape, purchasing development license is not sufficient. Every customer Add-on must be delivered using a development namespace (i.e. /ABC/<name_of_object>), it is not advisable to delivered Add-on in customer namespace (i.e. starting with Z***).
AAK or Add-on Assembly Kit will be delivered to only those vendors who sign up for ABAP Add-on certification with ICC.
Hope this helps.
Regards,
Srini

Hello Veer .
Please try to do the following ...
<b>ORA-01017: Invalid username/password; logon denied</b>
Message ORA-01017 can occur both in step 1a) and in step 1b) or 2). Depending on this, the problem can be corrected as follows:
1a) log entries: Logon as OPS$ user to get <sapowner>'s password
                  Connecting as /@<sid> on connection 0 ...
ERROR => OCI-call 'olog' failed: rc = 1017
ERROR => CONNECTfailed with sql error '1017'
If you intend to use the standard password for <sapowner> anyway, you can ignore the error message at this point, as the OPS$ mechanism is not needed at all and the connect is carried out using <sapowner>/sap successfully afterwards. Note, however, that BR*TOOLS require a working OPS$ mechanism when executing via DB13!
           Otherwise, make sure that an appropriate OPS$ user is set up. To do this, proceed as follows:
Check whether the parameter
os_authent_prefix = ops$
is set correctly in init<sid>.ora. If you have to make a change, restart the database afterwards.
On Windows, make sure that the following parameter is set in sqlnet.ora:
SQLNET.AUTHENTICATION_SERVICES = (NTS)
Determine which operating system user <os_user> wants to create the connection. If this involves a connect initiated out of the R/3 System (for example, work process connect, DB13 actions), user <sid>adm is used under UNIX and user sapservice<sid> under NT. If you manually called the program that executes the connect, the user you are using is decisive here.
Use SVRMGRL to check whether the user OPS$<os_user> (or OPS$<domain>\ <os_user> for NT with Oracle >= 8.1.5) has been created at database level:
SELECT * FROM DBA_USERS WHERE USERNAME = 'OPS$<os_user>';
(for <os_user>, always use upper case)
If the system does not return an entry, create the user:
CREATE USER "OPS$<os_user>" DEFAULT TABLESPACE <user_tsp>
TEMPORARY TABLESPACE PSAPTEMP IDENTIFIED EXTERNALLY;
Note that the name of the OPS$ user must be specified completely in uppercase letters (also the host and domain names in case of NT and W2K), since a logon as OPS$ user will not work if it is not:
wrong:   CREATE USER "OPS$c11adm" DEFAULT TABLESPACE ...
          CREATE USER "OPS$sapdom\C11ADM" DEFAULT TABLESPACE ...
correct: CREATE USER "OPS$C11ADM" DEFAULT TABLESPACE ...
           CREATE USER "OPS$SAPDOM\C11ADM" DEFAULT TABLESPACE ...
Tablespace <user_tsp> is used when newly creating objects, when no explicit tablespace name is specified. In connection with R/3, this is almost never the case. Therefore, you can specify any tablespace. Proposal:
         R/3 <= 4.6D: <user_tsp> = PSAPUSER1D
        R/3 >= 6.10: <user_tsp> = PSAP<sid>USR
Check whether the OPS$ user has sufficient authorizations. The following statement must at least return CONNECT and RESOURCE:
SELECT GRANTED_ROLE FROM DBA_ROLE_PRIVS
WHERE GRANTEE = 'OPS$<os_user>';
If CONNECT and/or RESOURCE is missing, you can grant theseauthorizations as follows:
GRANT CONNECT, RESOURCE TO "OPS$<os_user>";
If all the settings described above have been made correctly on NT/ Windows 2000, but the error ORA-01017 is still displayed during the OPS$ Connect, the cause may be a start user set incorrectly for the SAP Service. Change to the services overview of the operating system and check the user who starts the service SAP<sid>_<instance_number>. If the user is not sapservice<sid>, enter sapservice<sid>. Other users (such as the local administrator) do not have an OPS$ user in the database, which leads to error ORA-01017. Check also whether the start user sapservice<sid> is a local user or a domain user. Domain users can be identified by the preceding domain name. Depending on this, the following OPS$ user should exist on database level:
Domain user:    <domain>\sapservice<sid>
OPS$ user:       OPS$<domain>\sapservice<sid>
Local user:      sapservice<sid>
OPS$ user:       OPS$<local_host>\sapservice<sid>
1b) log entries: Logon as OPS$ user to get <sapowner>'s password
                  Connecting as /@<sid> on connection 0 ...
                  Now I'm connected to ORACLE
                  Got <sapowner>'s password from table SAPUSER
                  Disconnecting from connection 0 ...
                  Now I'm disconnected from ORACLE
                  Try to connect with the password I got from OPS$-user
                  Connecting as <sapowner>/<pwd>@<sid> on connection 0
ERROR => OCI-call 'olog' failed: rc = 1017
ERROR => CONNECTfailed with sql error '1017'
           An ORA-01017 message at this point indicates an incorrect <sapowner> password in the SAPUSER table. In this situation, proceed as follows.
Set the password consistently in SAPUSER and in the Oracle DDIC using the following BRCONNECT call (BRCONNECT >= 6.10):
brconnect -u system/<password> -f chpass -o <sapowner> -p <password>
Otherwise, change the password in the SAPUSER table:
DELETE FROM "OPS$<sid>ADM".SAPUSER;
INSERT INTO "OPS$<sid>ADM".SAPUSER VALUES ('<sapowner>', '<password>');
Important: The SAPUSER table should only exist once in every system: for OPS$<sid>ADM. For this reason, only execute the above-mentioned statements for OPS$<sid>ADM - irrespective of the operating system user actually being used. All other OPS$ users can access the SAPUSER table using a synonym.
If the connect still terminates in the same way, check once more the section "General checks".
2) log entries: Try to connect with default password
                Connecting as <sapowner>/<pwd>@<sid> on connection 0
ERROR => OCI-call 'olog' failed: rc = 1017
ERROR => CONNECT failed with sql error '1017'
If you want to use the standard password sap and do not need the OPS$ mechanism, reset the <sapowner> password to sap:
ALTER USER <sapowner> IDENTIFIED BY sap;
If you do not want to use the standard password, the error cannot be avoided at this point. Set up the OPS$ mechanism as described above instead.

Rahul
