Can we transport BW 7.0 objects to BE 3.5 systems?

Hi All,
Can we transport objects from 7.0 (BW Dev) to 3.5 (BW Prod) system? Would there be any cautions we should consider before transporting. I was wondering except for DTP, transformations do we have anything else? Upgradation to BW Prod will take atleast 3 weeks from BW Dev upgradation. Please let me know. Thanks!!

Hi,
You can search for threads on this topic. You'll find out that such transports are neither recommended nor supported by SAP. I have gone through such (system upgradation) cycles in projects - I think the best practice would be to plan the project deliverables in such a way so that tranport freeze can be achieved during the period the systems are getting upgraded.

Can we transport BW templates present in SRM to New BW system

Hello All,
We have activated all the web templates related to SRM in our BW system.
Our requirement is to run customised BW templates which are present in SRM system in BW system.
Can we transport all the BW templates present in SRM system to BW system.
BW templates are pressent in
SPRO - SRM - SRM Server - Cross Application Basic settings - Define logical system and template names for BW reports.
1. Bidder History
2. Vendor evaluation
3. price comparison
4. detailed bid comparison with attributes
Is there any possibility of activating or transporting the above reports in the separate BW system.
Thanks in advance.

Hi
If the QA system has different client than Dev will it get migrated via transport request as you have mentioned above?
I have manually created an entry in my transport request.
     R3TR TABU Table keys: Client = 250 and Object_key = XYZ.
     My QA system has different client than dev. QA is 300. Dev is 250.
    When I migrate this request will the table entries automatically maintained/updated with client 300 in QA?
Thanks

Hi,how can i transport objects from one server to other like (Dev To Qty)

Hi Sir/madam,
Can u explain how can i transport objects from one server to other like (Development To Quality To Production).
Regards,
Vishali.

Hi Vishali,
Step 1: Collect all Transports(with Packages) in Transports Tab(RSA1)- CTO
Step 2: Release the subrequests first and then the main request by pressing Truck button
Step 3: STMS or Customized transactions
Object Collection In Transports:
The respective Transports should have the following objects:
1. Base Objects -
a. Info Area
b. Info object catalogs
c. Info Objects
2. Info Providers u2013
a. Info Cubes
b. Multi Providers
c. Info Sets
d. Data Store Objects
e. Info Cube Aggregates
3. Transfer Rules u2013
a. Application Components
b. Communication Structure
c. Data Source replica
d. Info Packages
e. Transfer Rules
f. Transformations
g. Info Source Transaction data
h. Transfer Structure
i. Data sources (Active version)
j. Routines & BW Formulas used in the Transfer routines
k. Extract Structures
l. (Note) If the transfer structures and related objects are being transferred without preceding
Base Objects transport (e.g. while fixing an error) it is safer to transport the related Info
Objects as well.
4. Update Rules u2013
a. Update rules
b. Routines and formulas used in Update rules
c. DTPs
5. Process Chains u2013
a. Process Chains
b. Process Chain Starter
c. Process Variants
d. Event u2013 Administration Chains

Wonder if a $TMP package object can be transported?

In Transport Connection, we drag over an ODS to the right frame grouped by "In Dataflow Before". Even if the package assigned to this ODS is not $TMP, but one update rule under this ODS in this frame is assigned to $TMP. If we check this update rule object to be transported, then the transport will work or not if it's assigned to $TMP, but it's upper level ODS is assigned to a Z package?
Thanks

Kevin,
No,
If it is a sandbox system, u can use $TMP, if its a development system, use a package structure. B'cos only objects assigned to package structures can be transported from developement to Production.
You can use $tmp as pkg for your proxies.
Let me know if you need any further clarifictions.
Thanks

Is there a way to create a transport to mass-delete objects from another system?

I am facing a unique issue where I have to generate a transport that will successfully import into an external SAP system and delete over 1,000 objects (reports, data elements, UI elements, transactions, function groups, the whole lot...). All of these objects can be easily looked up because they are in the same namespace.
Essentially, I need to remove all objects with a given namespace via transport.
Is there any way to do this other than manually deleting all of the objects in the source system and adding them tediously to a single workbench request? This would take hours if not days to do manually, especially due to dependency issues.
Thanks for any and all constructive feedback!

Hi,
I did a quick test: created a new package (development class) with one table, one function group using the table in global data definitions containing one function module referring to the table in interface, and one program that's calling the function module and using table in data definitions. Released the transport to Q.
Then, in the second our dev system, I created the same package and TADIRs for the three objects manually (SM30); released transport to Q of that system. Then I manually created transport containing all the three objects, the export log looked like this:
TADIRs in second dev system were gone after export.
Then I added transport to the first development system and imported
- the objects were gone (including their TADIRs) leaving the empty package.
In retrospect, I should have deleted the empty package in second system so it's cleaned up by the same transport.
If you do have access to "clean" system, doing via ABAP the steps I did manually should not be too much of a challenge.
I may have simply gotten lucky and if this works with all objects, for all kinds of dependencies, remains to be seen... though I was until now under impression that import itself doesn't check any dependencies at all... What kind of messages were you getting?
cheers

Transport an Appraisal and Objective Setting Template

Note the following advice pertaining to transporting an appraisals and objective setting template (I have not found documentation about this anywhere else, so hopefully some of you find this useful):
Scenario:
You have maintained your templates in PHAP_CATALOG_PA in the main config client, and you have transported all other configurations (basic settings, etc.) to your unit test/integration test environment.
However, although you have right-clicked the category groups and templates to be transported and included them in a transport request, you find that only some of your configuration (or perhaps none at all!) is arriving in the target client when the transport is performed.
You may initially be able to work around this by downloading/uploading your config, but once your templates contain more complex configuration (such as using dynamic element references, etc.) you will find that this is no longer a feasible approach.
Cause & Resolution:
The problem is caused by outdated information in the workflow definition environment (transaction SWU3), and specifically the section labeled "Check Entries from HR Control Tables".
Run transaction SWU3, expand tree node "Maintain Definition Environment" (which should be marked with a red cross at this stage) and click on "Check Entries from HR Control Tables". The information presented in the right-hand pane indicates that:
If there are errors regarding the transport objects PDST or PDWS, the relevant entries are not maintained in table SOBJ. You can use the report RHSOBJCH to rectify this later.
Proceed as suggested and run report RHSOBJCH (through SE38 or SA38) in the config client (i.e. where the templates are to be transported from). This has no side-effects I am aware of other than updating the reference information required.
If you now run SWU3 again you should find that the "Check Entries from HR Control Tables" node is marked with a green tick.
Simply go back to the catalog, include your cat.groups & templates in a transport again, and Voila! Our work here is done.
Happy transporting...
Side-note: You may ask (as I did) what transporting of appraisal templates has to do with workflow, but it just so happens that the PD objects and infotypes associated with appraisals (VA, VB, VC, etc.) are transported through the same mechanism as workflow templates (which are also PD objects). if you peek inside the transport you will note that everything to do with the template and category group configuration is bundled inside PDWS and PDST transport objects...

Hi Abe,
what is the appraisal process you are talking about? The new stuff in ep4 where you define the process and steps which create the roadmap at the top of the document? if so SAP does not have a great straightforward solution, but they did provide us some options.
you can check out this thread and if you want I can send you the full document that is referred to in the post.

Can we transport a request from .....

Hi all,
can we transport a request from AIX OS, database DB6 ,BW 3.5 to a BW 3.5 which is on system Linux/Oracle.
Thanks for your valuable time.

Hi,
in theory that shouldn't be a problem, but it will still depend on what kind of objects you want to transport, in particular how the DB objects will be generated....

Can we Transport CRM,ECC,EP request from SOLMAN 4.0

Hi ,
We are under NW2004s implemnetation CRM5.0,XI7,BI7,and EP7.0.
Client wanted to Implement transport configuration from solman 4.0 to all these components.I have experiance on Individual component STMS .
Not sure how to transport from solman.
As i know that solman is only monitoring system.Can we transport CRM,EP,BI,XI tranport request from SOLMAN .Istaead of loggin in other systems?
Your reply would be greatly appriciated.
Thanks
Kristene

Just to elaborate a little more on the point above that "All the existing transport requests in queue will be transported to SOLMAN STMS"...
This is quite correct, when SolMan takes control of your landscape all the old transports, however far they've gone on their way to production, are visible from SolMan (STMS)...
However, if you've configured TMS as recommended for change request management (and you should to avoid security loopholes) and without reverting to playing around on the operating system level, you'll find that you are no longer able to do anything at all with them (via STMS for example). Stuff unreleased in development, can no longer be released, transports not yet imported in Quality or production cannot be imported... it's like a total freeze on all the 'old' stuff.
Fairly simple to work around though - before the go live with SolMan, be sure to clear out and get live as much as you can to reduce the number of 'old' transports still in process somewhere.
When you're live with SolMan, you'll then need to create new Change documents for the 'in process' changes. Follow the SolMan process up to the point of creating transport requests, and then, in the development system, use transaction SE10 to transfer the contents of the 'old' transports into the 'new' ones created via SolMan. You can then use the SolMan process to migrate the transports.
Generally there's no problem with this, but occasionally, especially for workbench objects, you may find that you can't release the 'new' transports via SolMan. 99.9% of the time this is because the objects are locked in the 'old' transports, but you can usually use SE10 to delete/remove the objects/release or generally mess around with the old transport until the new transport can be released. Beware also that there is a risk of picking up the latest version of an object, rather than the version in the 'old' transport when using this process...
Hope this helps -ILL

Creating transport for PI deleted objects

Hi all,
PI newbie here.
I have deleted an Integration Scenario as it is no longer needed. I can see this in my Change List, along with the CS object from which this has been removed.
How do I get these objects into a transport request?
When I right-click on the CS to activate I get the objects in a Change List and the IS is there but not selected. I assume this is correct and that I smply activate the CS? Please confirm.
PS: once again apologies for newbie question.

Hi Glen,
In transport wizard , check deleted object and your deleted objects will also be available for transport
Note: When you delete any object in ESR / ID , you must activate the change list then only changes will be reflected on PI server / cache
Thanks
Hari.

How can we transport the standard changed OTR texts w.r.t translation?

How can we transport the standard changed OTR texts with out effecting the translation concept.?
means i need to see the text in different languages which ever logged in.

using the function module SOTR_API_WB_TRANSLATE you can maintain translation in different languages for the OTR texts maintained in your WDA.
No need to transport,you can directly execute this FM by passing the below parameters:
SOURCE_LANGU                    EN
TARGET_LANGU                    FR
PGMID                           LIMU
OBJECT                          WDYV
OBJ_NAME                        %
FLAG_STRING

Transport connection, error in object editing, Specify a request

Hi,
I am trying to collect a cube with data flow before option, when i select all the objects and create a request and choose continue,
The pop-up prompt for workbench continues to appear,
If i press continue again, it returns message,
Error in object editing,
Specify a request
Message no. TK136
Diagnosis
You have selected a function without specifying a request.
System Response
The function terminates.
Procedure
First enter a request and then select a function.
To display all your requests, choose Own requests. You can also create a new request.
When i see the list of objects in the transport request all the objects
InfoCube
Communication structure
InfoPackage
InfoSource transaction data
Transfer structure
DataStore Object
Routine
Update rules
are collected except for transfer rules.
sometimes, when i choose continue it returns,
a new task will be added to the following request and i choose continue. All the objects are collected.
Normally, it should behave this way asking if a new task should be added. But, i am getting the above error.
Please suggest.
Raj.

Yes, normally i should be able to select the request and continue without the error.
The transport size is not too big.
I listed the objects instead of hierarchy and selected individually by object type into the same request.
I was able to collect all the objects,
application
infoarea
infocube
infoobject
communication structure
3.x datasource
infopackage
transfer rules
3.x infosource
transfer structure
source system
datastore object
routine
update rules
in one request. I could not do it the normal way though.
Thanks for you help again.
I saw the note earlier. yes, it is not relevant to this issue.

In which transport request an specific object exist.

I know that a way (trx) exists to find in which transport request an specific object exist.
Howewer I forgot which
Could you help me

Hi Tina,
May be this method can be followed.
1. Go to Tcode SE03
2. SEARCH FOR OBJECTS IN REQUESTS/TASKS and F8
3. Depending on the Object if its a Pgm name or a Function grp or a table etc etc you can inoput the value in the screen
4. Specify if it s Released or in modifiable state.
5. Check outthe lsit of TR's.
Hope this info Helps.
Award points if problem is solved.
