ABAPer role in upgrade project

Hi,
Please let me know the ABAPer role with upgrade project. When Std programs updated by support packs what are the responsibility of ABAPers?
Thanks,
Praneeth

Hi,
Automatic- It means that there will be a green icon. You will have to just click it and it is done.
This is because the changes to the SAP Object have been done either via SNOTE for some note application or you have used the modification assistant. So SAP does not have any problem in determining the changes. So the adjustment is automatic.
Semi-Automatic - In this case there will be a yellow icon. This means that you have to make some manual adjustments. This is because SAP considers that the adjustments are proper but still there is some discrepancy.Probably this is because you have made some note changes and additionally inserted some comments like begin of changes by xxxx on yyyyy for note zzzzz.
So in this case SAP will give you a split screen editor in whihc your existing code and the one coming from support pack will come. So you have to adjust accordingly.
Manual Adjustment - In this case there will be a red icon. This means that you have to make the chnages manually. This is because SAP finds a lot of discrepancy in your program and the one coming via support pack. The reason can be either the earlier note was incorrectly applied or you have added your own code for some custom requirment. So again SAP gives you the split screen editor to make the adjustments.
Your assumptions about Reset to Original and Adopt Modifications are correct.
I hope it solves your queries.

SAP Implementation:
SAP Implementation is the whole of processes that defines a complete method to
implement SAP software in an organization. It is based on best practices and case studies from various literature sources and presents a collection of processes and products that make up a complete implementation method to allow any organization to plan and execute the implementation of SAP (ERP) software. The SAP implementation process is made up out of four main phases, i.e. the project preparation where a vision of the future-state of the SAP solution is being created, a sizing and blueprinting phase where the solution stack is created and training is being performed, a functional development phase and finally a final preparation phase, when the last tests are being performed before the actual go live.
ABAP Developer Role is to prepare the Technical Specification (based on a Functional Specification given by a Functional Consultant), build the code, Review the code and finally to prepare the Unit Test Cases. Sometimes ABAPer may be asked to do a technical research for an optimal solution.
SAP Support:
After a go live, the application needs a maintenance/support to resolve the issues/tickets raised by the users when using the application. Ticket is like a request for changes/bug fixing or a request for a new ABAP Developer Role includes bug fixing/change the existing code due to new requirements/build a new code etc.
SAP Upgrade:
SAP Upgrade is nothing but upgrading the software with a superior version which has got more advantages when compared to the earlier version.
ABAP Developer Role is to go through transactions SPAU/SPDD to compare the old and new version of the change and finally need to activate the relevant one. Some times might need to work on SAP notes too.

Pre Upgrade Project details Required

Thanks in Advance.

Hi Ullas,

abaper role in Upgradation project
SAP Upgrade project
Regarding the Steps involved in Upgrade Project
First it will be to find objects whcih are impacted by upgrade. Now most of the solution providers have tools to do this work automatically with less human involvement. These tools give you a list of custom developments that will be impacted by upgrade which need correction in higher version. Each object in the list will be distributed to a person in team for fix. It is the responsibity of the Abaper to find out the error and fix the error in a given program and make it error free. This is checked by testing the object after the correction is completed. For exapmle a screen number has changed in higher version for a particular transaction. This implies a correction to all custom programs where this screen is used in BDC. Another example may be an obsolete function module which is not available in higher version and it is the responsibility of Abaper to find out suitable replacement for this.
But prior to this activity there is one more activity. If there are any changes to standard SAP developments like user exits or changes to standard code or changes to data dictionary, then they will not be reflected automatically after upgrade. There are transaction SPAU for workbench objects and SPDD for data dictionary objects. Abaper has to analyse the changed done to standard programs and dictionary objects and has to decide whther these are required in higher version. If they are required then correct them through these transaction codes.
There is a document given by SAP on roles played by different people in an upgrade project. I suggest you to read that.
Best regards,
raam

ABAP developer part in an upgrade project

Dear experts,
can anyone explain me the role of an abaper in an upgrade project...
thanks in advance.

Upgrade Project:
The Upgrade Project is to upgrade the SAP implementation version to the latest version of the SAP R/3 released by the SAP.
Generally the Upgrade Projects are initiated because SAP has suggested to the clients that few of the components delivered by it are no longer supported in the old version. Hence for the Support and Performance reasons it will suggest the clients to upgrade its SAP R/3 version to the latest release.
In upgrade projects we will have to revive all the BDC programs and implement the BAPI's that are given. Because the BDC is a Screen Dependent Object and the SAP might have made changes in Screen Fields, or may have removed the screen totally. So to achieve the functionality with BDC we have to deliver new BDC program or implement BAPI'S instead of BDC.

SAP MM Functional Consultant's role in a Upgrade Project from 4.6C to 6.0

Hi Guys,
I will be thrown into a SAP Upgrade Project. I would appreciate if someone could shed some light on what a SAP MM Functional Consultants role would be in this kind of Project.
I would appreciate a comprehensive guide where it includes role within each stage of the ASAP methodology for Upgrades.
Thanks guys.

> I will be thrown into a SAP Upgrade Project. I would appreciate if someone could shed some light on what a SAP MM Functional Consultants role would be in this kind of Project.
- defining the core processes
- test and customize them
- release the customizing transports for production
> I would appreciate a comprehensive guide where it includes role within each stage of the ASAP methodology for Upgrades.
Since each project is different and each system has a different customizing/configuration it's not possible to generate a step-by-step guide what you have to do. The requirements are usually defined by the business.
Your project leader should be able to give you a project plan (e. g. by using Solution Manager Upgrade Project) where you can get an idea based on the system you're going to upgrade.
