BAPE_VBAK from 4.6c in ERP

Hi,
I assume I'm using the correct forum, if not please advise where to post this, thanks.
Currently we are "upgrading" our R/3 4.6c to ERP and encountered a problem with the structure BAPE_VBAK. The error message reads like this (shortened):
"The table or structure 'BAPE_VBAK' was enhanced by an append. In the target release, the required enhancement differs from the table or structure extensibility that is defined in the ABAP Dictionary. Error '2' has occurred [...]
'2' Table or structure 'BAPE_VBAK' was enhanced by an append in the source release. I nthe target release, table or structure 'BAPE_VBAK' can only be enhanced by appends that contain character-type fields, however this append also contains non-character fields.
I assume that his problem derives from a field of type CURR as all the other feilds are either of type CHAR or DATS.
If this is true then I guess SAP has got some inconsitency inside the ERP Dictionary:
The table VBAK can be enhanced (via an append) using a field of type CURR whereas the structure BAPE_VBAK cannot. This means any changes of VABK, using one of the various BAPI's, cannot be used for any currency like fields.
How would you proceed in this case. Dismiss the currency field is not acceptable in this case.

Wolfgang,
yes, you're right. We are setting up a unicode system. But still I think that this problem occurs because of a slight inconsitency of both, structure and table VBAK.
Reading both OSS notes I guess that there is no way to get around this problem and I will have to change the appropriate coding and use, as advised, some new structures.
Thanks!

Effect on IDOC while upgrading from 4.0B to ERP 6

Hi all,
We are upgrading from 4.0B to ERP 6.0.
Are there any changes or modifications that has to be done for the IDOCs(which are developed in 4.0B).
Any pointers will be very helpful.
Thanks
Sreekanth P Krishnan

Hello,
We have upgraded from 4.6C to ECC6.0 and did not have any port config issues.
Things to look for:
- RFC destinations, do they still work
- directories used in File type ports, are they still there (they should be)
Hope this helps a bit

Sending idocs from POS DM to ERP

Hi all.
Tell me please. I want to check - correctly i configured the POS DM or not. Therefore i want send idoc WPUUMS from POS DM to ERP and i do not understand how do it. What methods exist for do this? Where usually create this idoc?
Regards
Denis.

Hi Denis,
In order to send the IDoc from POSDM to ERP, you will need a partner profile in POS DM and ERP with correct communication parameters. The message types WPUUMS and WPUTAB should be added in outbound parameters in POS DM and at the receiving system, maintain them as Inbound parameters (if you are using aggregated IDocs).
I would suggest to Google for POS DM config guide and follow the step to prepare various tasks and POS DM and using PIPE dispatcher, you can generate the IDocs and send to ERP. You need to assign the tasks which are responsible to generate WPUUMS and WPUTAB IDocs when they are executed in POS DM.
Once the IDoc is created, as per your partner profile it will be transmitted to ERP, where you need to process these inbound IDocs using BD87 or RWPOS_PARA to post the IDocs.
I hope this will help you to start with.
Let us know if you need any help.

Amit

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

Link from user pc to ERP and Portal

our project is using ERP 05 and Portal, ESS, MSS. I understand that Portal is the single user interface to backend ERP system. Does that means that there is no need for network link from user PC to ERP?

I've resolved these questions. Thank you.

Issues with follow-up from CRM Opportunity to ERP Quotation in 7.0

Dear Experts,
From the CRM 7.0 Web UI: while trying to create a follow-up from CRM Opportunity to ERP Quotation (or ERP Order) getting an error without any error message. Just error is displayed as u201CS::000u201D.
If the Opp got no items then follow-up ERP Quote/Order was successful, but error is displayed only when Opportunity got any item which has to be copied to target document.
Learned that in CRM it is not able to catch the errors coming from ERP hence this S::000 but the actual error message I could see coming from ERP while creating the ERP document is u201CUnit ST is not created in language ENu201D.
My Items UoM is PC. Wondering why and where ST need to be maintained for language EN. Or did I miss out any other configuration?
PS: Copy controls for Transaction Types and item categories configured correctly. ERP profile configured correctly.
Regards,
Venu.

I also got similer issue.
Condition customizing is GOOD
An entry with language EN for u201CST to PCu201D is there (Standard) still error persist.
As itu2019s not on my critical path just living with a workaround. I.e., Added another UoM (1EA = 1PC) to my product master and set that as base UoM. Copy was successful.
Let us know if you find the solution.

Can outbound delivery pick update be sent from Decentralized WM to ERP?

(I moved this thread from the ERP -Logistics Materials Management (MM) forum)
We are running batch management and DWM/ERP both on ECC 6.0
I have a request to be able to have the DWM pick information on an outbound delivery reflected as "scheduled for delivery" in the ERP system. Specifically, i need to show in the ERP system which batches have been already picked on the outbound delivery.
i've read the documentation on the "subsequent changes to distributed deliveries". The SHP_OBDLV_CHANGE idoc seems like the right method to pass the "pick quantity" and "batch" from the line item on the delivery. However, it is not part of the standard IDOC. Ultimately, i would like to see MMBE in ERP reflect the batches that have been picked on the DN in DWM.
Has anyone successfully done this?
Is what I'm proposing even possible?

Anandha,
First off, thank you for your comments. You noted a couple of things that i still have a questions about.
1. "Once the delivery is picked (TO created and confirmed) in the DWM system, the delivery confirmation Idoc must trigger to update the ERP system. BAPI SHP_OBDLV_CONFIRM_DECENTRAL should update the ERP system where the PGI is posted."
Currently, we use the SHP_OBDLV_CONFIRM_DECENTRAL iDOC to send PGI data from DWM to ERP. Are you saying that I can trigger an "initial" update of the delivery with the "pick" information (batch split, quantity)? BAPI SHP_OBDLV_CONFIRM_DECENTRAL would be the way I would do that? Would this BAPI create an iDOC?
2. "If the batch is changed in the ERP while the IDoc has been to DWM, there could be errors while posting the PGI since the batch number in the ERP system and DWM may not be the same. When the batch number is changed in the DWM system during the picking, we had someone to monitor those Idoc's that failed to update the ERP and had them manually edit the Idoc with the correct batch numbers before saving it."
Currently, we do not allow changes to the Delivery in ERP once it has distributed to DWM. Thus, i don't think that we will have the same problems as you have had. However, in order to enable the Delivery update of pick information in #1, what would be required to allow the Delivery to be modifiable in ERP?
Thanks again,
Andy

Synchronize Business Partner from SAP CRM - SAP ERP

Hi experts,
I would like to synchronize our BPs from the CRM into our SAP ERP System.
What Ive done until now:
1. start initial load "bupa_main" from "CRM" to "OTLP"
2. check if everything is correct with R3AM1 - after ~ 1 hour -> done (green)
3. I check with transaction BP in the ERP System if dates were transported - no
4. I check the outbound queue of the CRM "SMQ1" - it seems ok
5. Now Ive checked the inbound queue of our ERP Sytem "SMQ2" - but there is nothing - that means no queues available
What did I do wrong.
Ive checked both rfc connections with "remote login" and it works out. But only if my "RFCUSER" is on usertype "DIALOG". In the document C71: CRM Connectivity - the RFCUSER Usertype should be"Communication data"? Maybe thats the problem?
Kind regards.
Chris

HI,
Yes, RFCUSER dialog is not correct.
Change to system or service.
And that Tcode smw01 show?

Triggering Workflow from Adobe Form in ERP

Hello,
With SAP ERP 2005 version, Adobe Interactive forms can be created within SAP environment. Is there a way to link the SAP Adobe forms to a SAP Workflow instead of using the Adobe Workflow Designer?
Can we trigger the approval process using SAP WOrkflow from Interactive Adobe form?
Thanks.

Hi Anjali,
Interactive Forms is integrated in other environments that use workflow and make it easier to set it up:
Guided Procedures (in NetWeaver 2004s): Fully Java-based, GP is the process component of the Composite Application Framework (CAF), and thus largely model- and not development-based. You can use an interactive PDF form in a GP for offline steps.
Refer the link for more info on CAF
<a href="https://www.sdn.sap.comhttp://www.sdn.sap.comhttp://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/sdn/devguide2004s -> Fundamentals -> Creating Composite Applications">CAF</a>
The general integration into Web Dynpro, which allows you to build a workflow from scratch (requiring full workflow knowledge) and integrate the forms as steps in the workflow. Using this method, you could also integrate PDF forms into lower-release backends.
Hope this helps
Regards,
Sharadha

Copy Smart Forms from 4.6 to ERP

Hi,
I wonder if it is possible to transport/copy some Smart Forms from one system (4.6c) to another system (ERP).
I thought of exporting the data from our 4.6 system, using the transport manager, and import it into the ERP system.
Not tested so far and just wanted to get some statements or hints on how to handle this.

Hi,
You will not be able to download smartform in 4.6c to a local file since there is no facility provided for this 4.6c version.
This kind of facility is only available from 4.7 version only.
So U cannot download the smartform to a local file.
Reward me if it is helpful answer...
Cheers,
Sampath.

Distribution of purchase contracts from SRM4.0 to ERP 2004

Hello all,
Any body has experience in distributing Purchase contract from SRM to R/3.

Right now i can create contracts in EBP,but i unable to transfer them to backend.
Until now i have followed the documentation stategic sourcing configuration guide.
Please give your valuble information to distribute service contracts.
Thanking you,
Mahesh Madasu.

Hi Mahesh,
If you are using classic scenario then try these:
Go to Table: BBP_DOCUMENT_TAB. Check whether your contract no.
Then go to T. Code: WE20 in Backend system.
Check for the Partner TYPE of you backend system in Partner profiile.
Go to classification TAB. And check the partner status is Activate or not. The status should be 'A'. Check the inbound Parameter BLAORD is present or not.
Then go to YOur SRM system and go to WE20 and activate the partner status by setting the parameter to 'A'. Then redo the processes.
This may help you.

Ramon

Hi Ramon,
The major source of information should be the joblog of the job running APYSAP. During the upgrade this should be the joblog of the SAPup job.
When trying to reproduce by hand make sure you have
- SAPUP *LIB in your library list and an
- empty target directory '/usr/sap/put/exe'.
If you want you can frame your APYSAP call with STRO4TRC and ENDO4TRC from the 700 kernel library (add SAP700DEV to your libl only for the call of xxxO4TRC and remove it afterwards). Specify a trace id as a name, your job and qinter as the subsystem.
HTH,
Thomas
