Client Copies and Currency Changes

Hi All,
Looking for some experience with client copies and currency changes. We have a source system that was created with EUR as the system currency (SCC4 setting). We are building a new system with an export of the source system. The target system will be USD (or one of several other currencies). The question is how do you resolve the currency differences? Is it possible to create a new client from a source client of a different currency? (i.e. SIDCLNT100 = EUR , SIDCLNT110 = USD). What type of conversion is needed and where in the process is it performed? Thoughts or comments on experience is greatly appreciated!!

Hi Lee,
You can do a client copy and create a specific client for the PI (formerly XI) and BI capabilities or just use client 001 for both.
Obviously the latter option is the easiest one.
The only benefit is that security might be easier with a separate client for each but that is a pretty weak argument in my opinion.
BTW: You can't share a client for PI/BI with an ERP client.
Cheers,
Mike.

  • ECM - Comp process (IT0759) Calc Base and Currency changed

    We just went live with ECM (26-Feb-2007).  I have found several instances where the IT0759 was created correctly but now the Calculation Base is zero and the Currency is blank.  A review of the change log shows the change from a correct non-zero Calc Base and the appropriate Currency.  The change log shows the record changed by someone that has only access via MSS - no R/3 GUI access (no PA30 authority).  The same change log entry shows the status changed from In Planning to Submitted.  We have not written any customized code related to the Comp Planning iView other than add some columns (via V_TWPC_COL).
    Any ideas?
    Thanks.
    Sam

    Kevin,
    Thanks for your response.  However, I do not believe this is a configuration issue since we have almost 18,000 correct 0759 infotypes.  The ones that have blank Calculation Base and Currency (approx 10) had correct values before being changed by the supervisor (as confirmed by the Change Log).
    Further investigation has determined that the system will correct these infotypes when the Supervisor goes in for additional work on his/her org if the status is In Planning.  It also gets corrected when the Manager performs the Approval or Rejection step.
    So, at this time we will just monitor and correct via PA30, if needed.
    Thanks.

  • Client copies for XI and BI Netweaver 4s

    I'm in the process of building our development ECC 6.0 environment. The environment contains BI, XI, EP, ERP and Solution Manager each on seperate physical systems. We are building an ABAP and Java stack on BI, XI, ERP and solution manager. Our SAP consultants are informing me that the initial installation of client 001 (which is a copy of client 000) is configured during the installation on XI and BI systems. Creating a new client has no value and requires most of the configuration to be redone. Since both systems can only use one client, is there any value in performing this client copy other than standardizing the client numbers?

  • Aging Report and Currency

    I am trying to do a Customer Receiveables aging report. I have several clients with diferente currencies. Before, I could select a currency in these report ando see it in that currency. Now, in SBO8.8 SP00 PL12, in the currency box, only ## appears and does not let me change currency. I am a superuser. Any suggestions ?

    Hi Hector,
    You may check if the problem resolved in B1 8.8 SP 00 PL13.
    It is probably PL issue.

  • Local client copy for delta changes

    Hello Support,
    We have requirement of copying data(local client copy) of last one month. This is a rrepetitiveactivity and has to be done once in every month.
    For example, in DEV we have 3 clients 200, 210 clients. They make changes in 200 client and these changes has to be reflected in 210 clients. For changing 1 month data we can't perform client copy with SAP_ALL.
    I have an idea that we can perform local client copy using TDMS 4.0 but can we do delta client copy?
    So, my question here is
    1. Can we perform client copy for specific selected data(by date, for eg last 30days) without deleting existing data?
    2. We have step 'Start Deletion of Data in Receiving System' in Time Based Reduction scenario, can we skip this and continue proceed with client copy?
    Thanks,
    Uday.

    Hello Uday,
    SAP TDMS Time based reduction package copies the whole of master data and customization data along with the transactional data being filtered based on the Data Slice Date Provided.
    SAP TDMS cannot be used for a Delta Copy to copy only a months data keeping the existing data in the system. If the requiremnt is to run every month, you could give an approritate slice date and transfer the whole data again using SAP TDMS which would include the latest one month data as well.
    It is not recommended to skip the step "Data deletion in Receiver system" and then execute the SAP TDMS package. This can lead to issue during the transfer.

  • [BC4J] Master currency change + dirty details = warning (how?)

    Sorry for the lame subject, but it's the best I could do. :)
    Anyway, I 'want' something, but I could use some advice on how to accomplish it. Here's what I've been trying to realise:
    - A simple master-detail scenario
    - One of the detail records has been altered
    - The master currency changes
    - A popup comes up to warns me to either commit or rollback pending changes
    And
    - One of the master records has been altered
    - The master currency changes
    - Nothing happens
    I hope this explains what I need. :) So far I've created a new CustomViewObjectImpl class which I use as a base for all my ViewObjects. In this new class I override the executeQueryForCollection() method, because if I'm not mistaken, this is the location where the check for dirty details should be performed.
    However, a simple call to getDBTransaction().isDirty() is too simplistic, too unspecific.
    I think I somehow need to end up with a ViewRowSetIterator instance (which has the isDirty() method) which is contained or derived from one of the detailRowSets of "this". Any ideas of how I can retrieve it?
    So far, I've got something like this:
    protected void executeQueryForCollection(Object qc,
                                             Object[] params,
                                             int noUserParams)
    RowSet[] details = getDetailRowSets();
    ViewRowSetIteratorImpl vrsi;
    for (int i = 0; i < details.length; i++)
      vrsi = ....; // how to retrieve it ?
      if (vrsi.isDirty())
        switch (JOptionPane.showConfirmDialog(null,
                                              "Save changes?",
                                              "Attention",
                                              JOptionPane.YES_NO_OPTION,
                                              JOptionPane.WARNING_MESSAGE))
          case JOptionPane.YES_OPTION:
            getDBTransaction().commit();
            break;
          default:
            getDBTransaction().rollback();
            break;
    super.executeQueryForCollection(qc, params, noUserParams);
    }

    Hi,
    I had a quite similar need, except the "Nothing happens" part on altered master.
    I realize this makes quite a difference, but maybe my solution could help you somehow.
    After trying several possibilities, I considered the following approach.
    1. I extended ViewRowImpl in MyViewRowImpl and wrote the following:
         private boolean areDetailsModified()
              String[]          viewLinks = getViewObject().getViewLinkNames();
              for( int i = 0; i < viewLinks.length; i++ )
                   ViewLink          viewLink = getApplicationModule().findViewLink( viewLinks[ i ] );
                   ViewObject     detailView = viewLink.getDestination();
                   Row          linkRow = null;
                   if( detailView.isExecuted() )
                        linkRow = detailView.getCurrentRow();
                   if( linkRow != null && viewLink.getSource() == getViewObject() &&
                       linkRow instanceof MyViewRowImpl &&
                       ( (MyViewRowImpl)linkRow ).getViewRowState() != Entity.STATUS_UNMODIFIED )
                        return true;
              return false;
          * Assume a view row creates/updates/removes its main entity.
          * If the row itself was not modified, checks for changes in details.
         public byte getViewRowState()
              Entity          entity = getEntity( 0 );
              switch( entity.getEntityState() )
                   case Entity.STATUS_INITIALIZED:
                   case Entity.STATUS_NEW:
                        return Entity.STATUS_NEW;
                   case Entity.STATUS_MODIFIED:
                        return Entity.STATUS_MODIFIED;
                   case Entity.STATUS_UNMODIFIED:
                        if( !entity.isValid() || areDetailsModified() )
                             return Entity.STATUS_MODIFIED;
                        break;
              return Entity.STATUS_UNMODIFIED;
         }2. In my JClient client (still to use for the UIX one), I installed a JUPanelValidationListener and implemented
         public void beforeCurrencyChange( JUPanelValidationEvent event )
              Row          row = event.getIteratorBinding().getCurrentRow();
              int          rowState = Entity.STATUS_MODIFIED;
              if( row instanceof MyViewRow )
                   rowState = ( (MyViewRow)row ).getViewRowState();
         }3. And yes, not so fancy, I also made some changes to trace a "user-dirty" transaction (for some insert vs. LOV issues)...

    Hi Memalyn
    Essentially, the bare issue is that you have a 500GB hard drive with only 10GB free. That is not sufficient to run the system properly. The two options you have are to move/remove files to another location, or to install a larger hard drive (eg 2TB). Drive space has nothing to do with SMC firmware, and usually large media files are to blame.
    My first recommendation is this: download and run the free OmniDiskSweeper. This will identify the exact size of all your folders - you can drill down into the subfolders and figure out where your largest culprits are. For example, you might find that your Pictures folder contains both an iPhoto Library and copies that you've brought in from a camera but are outside the iPhoto Library structure. Or perhaps you have a lot of purchased video content in iTunes.
    If you find files that you KNOW you do not need, you can delete them. Don't delete them just because you have a backup, since if the backup fails, you will lose all your copies.
    Don't worry about "cleaners" for now - they don't save much space and can actually cause problems. Deal with the large file situation first and see how you get on.
    Let us know what you find out, and if you manage to get your space back.

  • Account-based COPA and having Cost Center as Real Object in Sales Order

    Hi,
    We have recently activated account-based COPA and in our SO, we realized the Profitability Segment being populated- that is not a problem in normal scenarios.
    However, in some cases, we would like to charge to a cost center instead of COPA. We have tried the 2 ways mentioned in the forum/on the web to include Cost Center in Sales Order:
    1. Go to OVF3 t-code and configure a default cost center for the order reason
    2. Change the SD Document Category under 'Define Sales Document Types' to 'I- Order w/o charge'.
    However both ways only open the Cost center field but still populates the COPA. At accounting entries, cost center will become a statistical object and COPA, the real object- which is not what we want.
    Is there a way to stop the auto-populating of Profitabiltiy Segment in SO when cost center is being entered?
    Thanks very much in advance for any suggestions.
    Regards,
    Huimin

    Solved by myself, with help of OSS Note: 44381 - Profitability Segment Not Required in SD Postings. Have a CO substitution rule to clear away the Profitability Segment number based on certain conditions. Thanks!

  • Client dependent and client independent in ALE

    I am going through pdf learning of an ALE scenario,i couldnot get wat is meant by client Independent and client dependent.
    How can i conclude
    Create message type (WE81){color:green} Client independent {color}
    To create a new message type, follow these next few steps:
    u2022 Enter transaction WE81 (ALE -> Extensions -> IDoc types -> Maintain message type for intermed. Structure -> Create logical message type)
    u2022 Choose Create logical message type by double clicking on it
    u2022 Click on change icon to enter change mode
    u2022 Click on New entries to add a new type
    u2022 Enter the required message type, in our case it is ZINVRV and an appropriate description
    u2022 Save and exit.
    Your message type has now been created. The next step will be to link it to the IDoc.
    2.2.1. Link message to IDoc type (WE82 & BD69) {color:green} Client independent {color}
    To link the message type to the IDoc type follow these next few steps:
    u2022 Enter transaction WE82 (ALE -> Extensions -> IDoc types -> Maintain message type for intermed. Structure -> EDI: Message Types and Assignment to IDoc Types)
    u2022 Click on change icon to enter change mode
    u2022 Click on New entries to create the link
    u2022 Enter the message type ZINVRV and the BasicIDoc type as ZINVRV01
    u2022 Save and exit
    u2022 Enter transaction BD69 (ALE -> Extensions -> IDoc types -> Maintain message type for intermed. Structure -> Assign message type to IDoc for ALE)
    u2022 Click on change icon to enter change mode
    u2022 Click on New entries to create the link
    u2022 Enter the message type ZINVRV and the BasicIDoc type as ZINVRV01
    u2022 Save and exit
    Your IDoc is now linked to your message type. We still need to link object types and add the message to the model before we can use the message.
    2.2.2. Maintain object type for message type (BD59) Client independent
    The ALE objects are used to create links between IDocs and applications objects, to control the serialisation, to filter messages in the customer model and to use listings.
    For our own message type and IDoc you must maintain object types for the links.
    If you want to check the serialisation for the message type, then you must maintain object types for the serialisation. If no serialisation object has been maintained for a given message type, then the serialisation will not be checked for this message type.
    To add an object type to our message type, follow these next few steps:
    u2022 Enter transaction BD59 (ALE -> Extensions -> ALE object maintenance -> Maintain object types)
    DOC NAME: ALE_SCENARIO_DEVELOPMENT_PROCEDURE
    Version 1 Page 6 of 16
    ALE Scenario Development Guide
    u2022 Type in your message type ZINVRV and press enter
    u2022 Click on New entries
    u2022 Enter your object type, LIFNR (We need to use the vendor as a filter object), the segment name where LIFNR resides, Z1INVRV, a number 1 for the sequence followed by the actual field name LIFNR
    u2022 Save and exit.
    You have now created an object that weu2019ll use as a filter object in the customer model to direct the flow of messages to the various logical systems based on the vendors in the filter of the message type ZINVRV.
    We now need to add our new message type to the distribution model.
    2.3. Configuring the Distribution Model
    This task is performed on your ALE reference client.
    2.3.1. Manual Configuration (BD64) {color:green}  Client dependent {color}
    To manually configure the customer distribution model, read the ALE configuration procedure, and follow these steps:
    u2022 Perform the Maintain customer distribution model directly function. (ALE -> Distribution customer model -> Maintain customer distribution model directly)
    u2022 Specify the customer model you want to maintain and the logical system that is to be the sender of the messages OR create a new model. (Create model ALE with logical system ALELS1C400)
    u2022 Choose the receiving systems to which the sending system must forward message type ZINVRV to.
    u2022 For each receiving logical system allocate the message type necessary for communication to the receiving systems as per ALE configuration procedure.
    u2022 Create filter objects (in our case LIFNR as the object type with the associated vendor number, 0000018001 with leading zeros, in the object area) for the message types.
    u2022 Save the entries.
    Refer my query within color:green

    A client is an independent business unit within an R/3 System, Data in the R/3 are classified as cleint-Dependent and client-independent.
    Client-independent data such as ABAP Programs, R/3 repository objects throught the entire system. Other data is client-dependent. meaning, it can be viewed from one client. Cleint-dependent data includes customizing application and user data.
    Eg.
    Scripts are client dependent, means the changes done to SAP scripts in particular client will not be reflected in other client.
    Smartforms are client independent, means changes done in one client will be reflected in all the clients.
    Server : ECC6
    Client : 100 , 200 , 300 , 400
    Now suppose you have developed report in DV server client 100.
    Then you will be able to see that in all clients.
    Hence this is called as client independent. You can change anywhere and changes will be reflected to all ...
    Now suppose you have developed a script in DV client 100.
    You will not be able to see that in client 200 or 300 or 400 unless ytou copy that from client since it is client dependent.

  • How to improve client handover and roaming between AP's

    Improving client Handover and roaming between APs
    There are a few standards and methodologies available to use to improve handover of clients between APs. Most are focused on VOIP technologies, but it must always be remembered that we cannot control the client Handover (especially with legacy clients) we can only encourage them. Some Standards and methods work well for some environments and some do not - test the recommendations extensively before implementing in a live Production environment. It must also be noted that all settings take effect immediately once applied, however from a client perspective it might need to re-associate for the changes to take effect client side.
    As with everything else in IT, if a perfect method/solution existed there would only be one - try them all and keep the best.
    The Standards and Definitions
    802.11k
    IEEE 802.11k allows a device to quickly identify nearby APs that are available for roaming. When the signal strength of the current AP weakens and the device needs to roam to a new AP, it will already know the best candidate AP with which to connect to.
    802.11r
    IEEE 802.11r specifies fast Basic Service Set (BSS) transitions between access points by redefining the security key negotiation protocol, allowing both the negotiation and requests for wireless resources to occur in parallel.
    When a device roams from one AP to another on the same network, 802.11r streamlines the authentication process. BSS allows a devices to associate with APs more quickly. Coupled with 802.11k's ability to quickly identify the target AP, BSS's faster association method may enhance application performance.
    Handoff Assist
    The AP monitors the RSSI for every associated client. If the RSSI for a specific client falls below "low-rssi-threshold" and continues to fall for the "rssi-falloff-wait-time", then the AP will send a de-auth to the client. 
    The de-auth is meant to kick the client away from the current AP and get it to re-authenticate to a nearby AP. This will have the effect of helping a client handover between 2 APs.
    BUT (Big But), if the client gets de-authed and takes a while to re-authenticate (if it even does re-authenticate automatically after a de-auth), then this will have the effect of destroying communication instead of helping it -- mostly found with legacy clients. 
    Remove Lower Transmit Rates
    Removing lower transmit rates is a way to promote better roaming, BUT not all clients respond well, or even respond to it. 
    The practice is that the basic rates are a subset of the transmit rates. If you only want to allow speeds 9 and up, you would select only the transmit rates of 9 and up, and the basic rates of 9 and 11. If a legacy client expects the rates of 1 and 2 it will not connect.
    Local Probe Threshold
    Local probe Threshold prevents a client from connecting to an AP with a too low a signal - helps more with initial connection than roaming.
    The local probe threshold parameter is not supposed to force clients to roam as soon as they pass near an access point with a good signal, but rather to NOT hold on to an access point with a weak signal (avoiding sticky clients).
    PMK Caching
    Defined by 802.11i and is a technique available for authentication between a single AP and a station. If a station has authenticated to an AP, roams away from that AP, and comes back, it does not need to perform a full authentication exchange. Only the 802.11i 4-way handshake is performed to establish transient encryption keys.
    Opportunistic Key Caching (OKC)
    Is a similar technique to PMK, but not defined by 802.11i, for authentication between multiple APs in a network where those APs are under common administrative control. An Aruba deployment with multiple APs under the control of a single controller is one such example. Using OKC, a station roaming to any AP in the network will not have to complete a full authentication exchange, but will instead just perform the 4-way handshake to establish transient encryption keys
    Implementation and Configuration
    802.11k
    802.11k is configured in your VAP profile. Tick the option to “Advertise 802.11k”. There after set the Handover Trigger Feature Settings.
    Tick the “Enable Handover Trigger feature” and then set RSSI threshold by specifying the -dBm level at what the hand over trigger should be sent to the client
    802.11r
    802.11r is configured under SSID of your VAP profile. Tick the option to “Advertise 802.11r”
    HandofF Assist
    Station Handoff Assist is enabled in RF Optimization under the RF Management section of AP configuration.
    Tick the “Station Handoff Assist” option to enable it, next set the Low RSSI Threshold – the threshold determines above what level no deauth gets sent
    Lower Transmit Rates
    Transmit rates can be adjusted in the Advanced tab of SSID under your VAP profile.
    Remember that the basic rates are a subset of the transmit rates. If you only want to allow speeds 9 and up, you would select only the transmit rates of 9 and up, and the basic rates of 9 and 11
    Local Probe threshold
    Local Probe threshold can be adjusted in the advanced tab of SSID under your VAP profile.
    Depending on the density of your APs consider values between 20 and 40 -- 40 being aggressive in an AP dense area.
    Deny Broadcast Probes
    Denying Broadcast Probes can cause problems with Roaming especially if the SSID is hidden – leave option disabled.

    Hi, thank you for the helpful guidance.  I have a basic question, if the device roam from one AP to another AP with the same SSID.  Is there a need of re-authentication given a) the network uses EAP based authentication; b) the network uses MAC address authentication.   If there is no need of EAP re-authentication, how the 802.11 keys are moved to the new AP.  Thank you very much if you could help me clarify my thought.

  • Basis Changes possible with prod client set to "no changes"

    Hi SAP Basis Experts
    I am busy with an internal security review of a client's SAP Environment and I experienced a query from the client side regarding a finding on SAP Basis Changes - an area I'm not too well versed in. The Client's Change procedures require all changes to be requested by logging it in a notification screen and the classification of the SAP changes according to it being either, small, normal, emergency or basis changes.
    Should the change be classified as basis changes, it bypasses their security procedures  and no authorisation is required for the implementation thereof, it seems, straight into the production environment.
    The Client has the following settings
    Their Global Security Setting (SE06) is set to "Modifiable"
    Cross Client Obj Changes for the Production Client (SCC4) is set to "No changes to repository and cross client customising objs"
    The person performing the basis changes has a development key in the production client (DEVACCESS) along with two others.
    Other than a myriad of security shortcomings my question is this:
    The Basis Administrator argues that he can not make changes to the production environment due to the the "No changes..." setting even if he does have a Developer key.
    1) Is this correct?
    2) What further reports can I ask to validate that this administrator can not make changes without due authorisation?
    3) Is there a report that details which users can make changes to the Client Settings (SCC4)
    Thank you for the assistance!

    Hi,
    The Following things needs to be take care in this Activity
    1) No Need to create Another TS for SAP R/3, this will not allow you to create another one.
    2) Just Add the Business system for the Existing TS with Client 216 and also take care abt the Logical System Name here.
    3) Refresh SLD Data Cache in IDEnvironment-
    4) Now Use this New Business System for Communication which is having the New Client and Corresponding LS Name

  • Questions on Client Failver and Fast Failover

    've few questions regarding Client Failover and Fast Faiolver of Oracle Database HA. Before I ask those questions I would like to explain my environment. Below are the details.
    - We have two physical locations called 'ABC' and 'PQR'
    - ABC is the primary site.
    - PQR is the standby site.
    - In ABC, we have Oracle RAC database (11.2.0.2) with two nodes.
    - In PQR, we have a single server standalone database (11.2.0.2) with ASM. This is not a RAC.
    - Data Guard has been configured between ABC and PQR and it is working as expected.
    - Please note that we have a licence for Active Data Guard.
    - We have Oracle Identity Management products at both ABC and PQR and they are going to use RAC database as a primary database which is in ABC.
    - We did not configure Data Guard broker yet.
    We want to achieve below goals:
    Goal 1:
    Whenever RAC primary goes down completely, standby database should become primary database AUTOMATICALLY and it should allow read/write operation.
    I guess this is called 'Fast Failover'. Please let me know if I am wrong.
    Questions :
    - To make this happen, Do I need to configure Data Guard Broker so that standy database becomes primary when RAC goes down completely with planned or unplanned outage.
    - Let's say RAC goes down completely, how long does Data Guard broker take to make standby db as Primary.
    - What about the client/application who already connected to RAC.
    - Let's standby DB has become as primary and after sometime if RAC comes back , Does data guard automatically changes the role of RAC to primary ?
    Goal 2:
    As I explained above, all Oracle IDM products and applications speak to RAC database they only know about RAC database which is primary.They are not aware of standby database.
    - Whenever a client session is in progress with RAC primary database, if RAC goes down completely , we would like to expect client session should get transferred standby datbase without loosing session information . However before this happens, standby database should become primary becuase client session may perform write operations.
    - Whenever a client is trying to connect to RAC prmary and assume RAC is completely down, we would like to expect client connections should get transferred to standby database.
    However before this happens, standby database should become primary becuase client session may perform write operations.
    As per my knowledge, above scenarios are called 'client failver'. Please let me know if I am wrong.
    Questions:
    1. Please throw some light to achieve above features.
    2. As per my understanding, before client failover happens, fast failover should have already occured and standby should get switch to primary role. I guess all this happens through TIMEOUT parameters. What are those.
    Could you please help ?
    Thanks

  • Condition in PO comes default and in change mode

    The requirement is that some of the conditions like JCDB, JCV1 should come as blank by default in the PO and in change made. The user will enter the details of the amount directly in the PO. The conditions should directly appear in the import PO's.
