Change in backend system

Hi SRM Gurus,
Project Scenario is ECC5 as backend system integrated with SRM 4.0( SSP scenario and with Catalog CCM2.0)
Implementation scenario is Extended classic.
Backend system will be changed to ECC6 from ECC 5.0 with company code consolidation.
ECC6 is installed on separate server for implementing changes in FI (separate Dev, QA, Prod environment ) and will be integrated with SRM4.0
Question is that when we integrate SRM4.0 with ECC6, do we need to run transaction BDLS to change logical system name in SRM for backend system?
As all product categories and vendor are same in ECC 6.0 will this work.
Also there is GUID reference in table CRMLSSGUID & CRMPRLS in R3. How this will be taken care.
Option 2:
no need to run BDLS in SRM. We need to define new backend system and replicate all master data (product categories, UOM & vendor master) from ECC6 to SRM4.0.
SRM experts, please suggest as for me option 2 is suitable way.
Thanks & Regards,
Avinash

Hi SRM experts,
In Org structure Product categories will be maintained with Source system (new backend system) in extended attributes. Also for vendors new backend system maintained in attributes.
With these settings user will able to see the product categories, vendors pertaining to New backend system.
Please share your views.

Impact on shopping cart due to change in backend system

Hi All,
Our client is changing the backend ECC5 system to ECC6 on new server (new logical sys) with FI restructring in ECC6.
We have SRM4.0 system ( with CCM on same client) with Extended classic scenario.
What will be impact on Shopping carts which are awaiting for approval or in Held status( used by client as template) .There is only product category and vendor and no material number in Shopping cart from catalog.
As the product categories and vendors are same in ECC6 also , during cutover can the shopping cart with held/open status be posted after changing backend system, Or we need to upload it.
Any thoughts on this please.
Best regards,
Avinash

Hi Laurent,
In ECC6 ,consolidation of many company codes to single company code will happen, whereas in SRM as there is only one backend purchasing org we need to map this with new backend purchasing org of ECC6.0(which is unique for SRM)
As per my understanding, as backend system change we need to replicate same product categories from ECC6 to SRM4.0 as SRM creates GUIDs for backend product categories and passes a sych GUID in ECC also.
Will the existing shopping carts in Held/open condition get processed which had been already created with old Product categories and vendor details (which are replicated from ECC5) when backend system changed to ECC6
Is this applicable for open purchase orders also as company code consolidates in ECC6. Do we need to close open PO or upload open with change data?
Please suggest.

Avinash

Change backend system of portal

Hi,
We want our EP7 portal to point to a different backend system. We want no references to the old backend system.
I know the following steps:
1) create new system
2) Change the Webdynrpo Jco connections
Please let me know the other steps that needs to be taken care off while changing the backend system?
Thanks,
Antar

No other steps needed. It is fine.
Once you delete the old system then you can test it by creating a SAP Transaction iview
during the creation it will give you a drop down of all system aliases in the portal.

Programmatic access to multiple backend systems using adaptive RFC

Hello,
The following link http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/af/84a34098022a54e10000000a1550b0/content.htm talks about the support to map multiple backend systems by specifying the backend system as URL parameters in a webdynpro application.
For example:
http://<hostname>:<port>/webdynpro/dispatcher/local/ESSProject/ESSApp?
sap.wdarfc.useSys=WD_MODELDATA_DEST:ABC&
sap.wdarfc.useSys=WD_RFC_METADATA_DEST:ABC
Is it possible to programmatically change the backend systems the application connects to? in other words can a single application while executing connect to different backend systems by dynamically changing the model parameters?
(This should be possible without the portal in the picture)
Cheers,
Praveen

Master data in SRM when backend system change

Hi SRM Gurus,
Our scenario is ECC5 as backend system integrated with SRM 4.0( SSP scenario and iwith Catalog CCM2.0) Tech Implementation scenario is Extended classic .
Now our backend system will be changed to ECC6 from ECC 5.
ECC6 is installed on separate server for implementing changes in FI ( separate Dev, QA, Prod environment )
Question is that when we integrate SRM4.0 with ECC6, all master data (product categories, products & vendor master) needs to be replicated from ECC6 to SRM4.0
As SRM system will remain same what will happen to present master data in Production system.
As deletion is not suggested what is the correct approach.
We can delete this master data in SRM Dev and QA.
Can we keep master data pertaining to ECC5 as it is in SRM.
Any idea as to what type of impacts one can expect if backend system changed from ECC5 to ECC6? Is there a recommended approach for this?
I already referred note SAP note 418886 /995771.
Regards,
Avinash

Hi
By changing to ECC6.0 you would be entering a new backend system. Since the master data in SRM is linked to the respective backend system, it should not impact you.The old master data would still be there but linked to old backend system. You can let the data remain as it is if you want.

Impact on Portal if changing IP address of backend systems ?

Hi,
Slightly different scenario to the usual "change of ip" address questions.
We have an EP6 Portal used for SSO access to backend R/3, CRM, BW systems.
Does anyone know the impact on the Portal side if the IP address is changed for the backend systems only ?
The Portal system IP address will not change.
The changes requires on the backend systems is already known about,
as they are addressed in notes: 88346, 403708, 757692.
From browsing the forums, I am expecting the Portal will need a restart because
the JVM caches IP addresses.
Refer: Controlling DNS caching in the Java Virtual Machine (i.e. J2EE WAS)
Is there likely to be an impact on SSO, or anything else on the Portal side ?
Many thanks,
Andres

Hi Andres,
No problem with the SSO and other details.
But you have to change the hosts file and map the servername with the new IP address.
The path for the host file in windows environment is /drivers/etc/hosts.
Here you have to map the new IP with the corresponding server name.
Other than this everything will work properly.
If you are unable to change the hosts file then in the system object of the portal in the connector property set the server name to the new IP address. Everything will work properly. We had this problem and solved this.

Hi,
The problem with organization structure , Please check your organizaiton structure.
Change company code /Pur.org Separatlly it will work.
while replicating vendor please select the flag 'with out reference to back end pur.org' and choose local purchasing organization.

Unable to define connector for multiple backend systems in BRM

Hi,
I am on GRCFND_A V.11 and SP04
I have multiple backend systems integrated with GRC box. So far I was using one backend connector as default one for role maintenance but it is not feasible if you have to create roles in variuos backend connected systems. I know one way to do so, i can keep changing the default connectors whenever i need to create roles but that is obviously not at all the onw any one would like to go with.
So, I tried to create unique connector groups for every individul backend connectors. But the issue is, the moment i assign the backend connector to the respective connector groups, the same gets reflected to other connector groups as well. So, whenever i either add or delete some of the connectors to any connector groups it gets modified/changed from all of the connector groups.
These are the backend connectors where i have to create roles from BRM whenever needed.
These are the connector groups:
I followed to the ink: GRC AC 10 BRM: Default Connectors with Multiple Back-end R/3 Systems , which is the same as mine issue, but not able to come to the solution point.
would appreciate for your quick response.
Thanks,
Ameet

Could anyone suggest solution to the above mentioned issue please?

Vendor Master Replication from 2 Backend System

Hi Experts,
I am facing a problem in replicating the vendor masters from two Different Logical ECC systems.
The vendor master at 1st Backend system
Vendor Master: 0011000196
Company Code: C001
Pur.Organization: P001
The vendor Master at 2nd Backend system
Vendor Master: 0011000196
Company Code: 1000
Pur.Organization: 1000
In BBPGETVD, the vendor from 1st backend system is replicated successfully and available in VENMAP table. Again, I entered the same vendor code and change the 2nd Backend destination in BBPGETVD and clicked on start transfer , In SLG1 i could find the error as below
"Error: The Vendor Number Exists as a Partner Number Vendor: 0011000196”.
In VENMAP table for the above vendor there is only one entry for the 1st logical system alone.
Kindly suggest.
Thanks& Regards,
Ramprakash N

If it is the same vendor - it must have the same address in both backends.
After that you should be able to start BBPGETVD with following checkbox activated.
Then VENMAP should be extended automatically.

Switching Backend System

Hello everybody
We've setup SRM 4.0 with SRM Server 5.0 SP08 and CCM 2.0 SP03 on a development/customizing machine called DIM. We connected it to temporary devel./customizing SAP R/3 4.7 backend system called RIS.
Why a temporary devel./customizing backend system? Well, that's a complete other story...
However, we now have to change this connection to the definitive devel./customizing SAP R/3 4.7 backend system.
The problem / question is: after having changed all customizing settings (changed logical and/or RFC destinations everywhere) we are able to replicate DNL_CUST_BASIS3, DNL_CUST_PROD0 but not DNL_CUST_PROD1 from the new backend system.
In R3AM1 it hangs with a yellow status, in SMQ2 it stays in the inbound queue with an error message ":COM_PRODUCT_CUSTMSG:028 R3PRODHIER RISCLNT200".
RISCLNT200 is the logical system name of the old backend system.
Is this error message araising because we already replicated from this (old) backend system? Does anybody out there know this issue? Anyone having a solution to it?
Other question:
Is it somehow possible to wipe out all repliacated data (hierarchies, categories, material, ...) from an SRM server instance without having to reinstall everything from scratch? We're still on development/customizing level and not in production yet!
Thanks in advance for some help. Would be happy to reward with points!
Renaud
EDIT: looking at COMM_HIERARCHY I can see that the product categories were replicated. Any ideas, why I get above error in the inbound queue SMQ2 then?
Message was edited by: Renaud Desarzens

Hi Christophe
Thanks for the tip. Just tried it out, went to COMM_PRAPPLCAT and deleted the entry with application 01 and its assigned hierarchy id (R3PRODHIER). Then went to the pending queue entry in SMQ2 and restarted it.
Now the system returns another error in the inbound queue (SMQ2). It tells me that the hierarchy id R3PRODHIER already exists.
Tried to delete it in COMM_HIERARCHY but of course the system says it may only be maintained in the backend system. This backend system is no more of interest for us. We want to replace it by another one.
What else can I do? Is there a way to wipe out all replicated hierarchies and all products just to be able to redo an initial replication from a new (NOT additional!!!) backend system?
BTW: In the actual R3MATCLASS hierarchy I have some categories from our old backend system and some additional new ones from the new backend system. How can I make sure to have only categories from 1, the new one, backend system?
I'm kind of lost here...
Best regards,
Renaud

J2EE fails to connect to the ABAP backend system

We have J2EE 640 Sp16 Abap+Java. As we configured this node in high-availability, we applied note Oss 757692 to the J2EE.
Anyway the J2EE does not come up.
Into the std_server0.out we see the following:
Service dbpool started. (1503 ms).

We double checked the set6tings of note 757692 and all of them seems to be correct.
We changed also the psw of SAPJSF in the ABAP stack and also in Global server configuration by mean of the configtool for the ume.r3.connection.master.psswd item
Neverthless we continue to recive this error.
What's wrong ?

Could it be because you tried to do this in an AS Java + AS ABAP installation? The note 757692 says quite distinctly, "This note covers the procedure for the j2ee engine only!" The statement does not make it clear if this note refers to only a standalone AS Java.
My saying so is not very helpful, but the note also goes on to say, "Should you wish to change the host name of a server in a test !!! !!! system, you should do so only with the assistance of an SAP!!! !!! consultant.!!!

How to replicate customer fields in the backend system.

Hi All,
I need to transfer PO customer fields that were created in the SRM system to backend SAP system.
I am using Extended Classic Scenario in SRM and SRM Version is 5.0.
I am able to replicate the data created in SRM system to the backend.
How ever, I found the following BADI while debugging.
1. BBP_DOC_SAVE_BADI
2. BBP_CTR_RELVAL_ICC
3. BBP_DOC_SAVE_ICC
4. BBP_F4_SAVE_DB
5. HRSYNC_P
Hence, please tell me which BADI, I need to use to send my customer fields to the backend system.

Failed to connect to backend system

Hello,
I have installed visual composer and experience some errors.
My system fails to connect to the backend system in VC. I am able to create SAP transaction iviews for the system, see the alias, and user mapping is configured.
When I perform the System Connection test for my system which based on the load balancing template. All the test fail except the ITS test.
- SAP Web AS - SAP Web Application Server
- ITS Connection Tests the connection to an SAP
- Connection Test for Connectors Tests
- Connection Test Through DQE
Must all these test pass, or is it enough with only a subset of these tests. Does the alias have to be the same as the logical system.

Hi Jørgen,
It is a genuin problem. Just tell your Portal Administrator to give the userid (which you are using to log in to the portal from VC) the full authority for the alias you want to access from VC, as it is the portal administrator who has the rights to give access to various portal users. In the portal, the administrator can give a user the access to an alias by selecting that alias and change the required property.
Try the following flow to get the required document:-
help.sap.com->SAP Netweaver->SAP Netweaver 2004->people integration->portal->Administration Guide->System Administration->Permission,Role/User........
Check out the given help document, I hope it will help you in solving your problem.
Check out the section 3.2 (specially steps 25-30) in the pdf file provided in the following link :-

Web Dispatcher - Portal & Backend systems load balancing

Good Day,
I am currently in the process of setting up a web dispatcher for the Backend systems via the Portal.
I have already installed a web dispatcher to handle the Portal load balancing and this works perfect.
The SAP system landscape will be created using load balancing, currently it is set to Dedicated.
Question:
Do i change the ITS and WAS settings to point to the web dispatcher or leave them currently pointing to the backend systems?
ITS = hostname :8000
WAS = hostname : 8000
Many thanks,
Morgan Moodley

Hi Morgan,
You point them at the web dispatcher.

BBPGETVD throwing an error -Backend system with release 701 are not support

Experts,
After changing the Backend connection from R3 4.6c to ECC6 sysem in our BBPCRM4.0,
the transaction "BBPGETVD" is not working, which is throwing an error as
"Backend system with release 701 are not supported".
Already we have applied some of the notes (822883 &862290)
Thanks
Ahamed

Are you able to replicate other data like plants, product categories from the same backend system or are you facing the same error?
Also please check the logical system and see if they are assigned to the client correctly. (in SPRO settings)
Thanks,
