Conversion from Blended codepage 6200 to MDMP in 4.6c

Hi Experts,
   If the existing system is on 4.6c, what are the complications as well as the effort required to convert the ambiguous code page to MDMP?
   Thank you.
regards,
David

Hi David,
It was a long time ago... Is the guide (service.sap.com -> installation & upgrade guide - SAP Components - SAP R/3 - Release 4.6C SR 2 - language transport) relevant?
If MDMP is supported on 6200 of your platform, it might be something like
1.Tcode SMLT to load language from the language CD
2.Reapply all the support packages
3.Report RSTLAN_IMPORT_OCS...
Do you consider upgrading to ECC then converting to Unicode? It is the only code page supported eventually.
Thank you,
Victor

  • Conversion from MDMP to Unicode

    Hallo.
    I would like an information.
    We are upgrading from R/3 4.6C MDMP to ECC 6.0 Unicode through the CU&UC Guide.
    Our codepages installed (Table TCPDB) are 1100 and 1700 (for Greek).
    We are setting SPUM4 and I see that in the CU&UC Conversione guide there is:
    "2.2.2  Initialize/Edit Language Lists
    Before the database check, you have to maintain two lists which contain languages and code pages. They are used in conjunction with language keys to determine the correct code page to use for converting table data.
    2.2.2.1 Restrictions
    You cannot edit the lists during a running worker job!
    Active languages can be added to or deleted from both lists before the Consistency Check is started. This also includes changing the code page information for a language as described in the following sections.
    Inactive languages can be added to or deleted from both lists before the scan Tables with Ambiguous Language Information is started.
    Systems with Code Page 1100
    If you use the wrong frontend code page 1100 for logon (with SAP GUI for Windows) to SAP systems running with code page 1100, you are able to input some characters that are not in the system code page 1100. Example: the Euro sign (€) and the trademark sign (™). Those characters get lost during the conversion!
    system code page = 1100     frontend code page = 1100
    no € and ™ in the Unicode system
    There is a workaround to prevent this:
    For all languages which are displayed in the Language List with code page 1100 change this entry to 1160 which corresponds to Microsoft code page cp1252.
    system code page = 1100     frontend code page = 1160
    € and ™ in the Unicode system       
    So I understand that in the Language list settings of SPUM4 I have to put:
    Language
    Code Page
    Active
    1160
    DE
    1160
    X
    EN
    1160

    EL

    1160
    RU
    1160
    ES
    1160
    X
    Note the parameter:
    zcsa/installed_languages=EFDGIS
    Are my language settings right?
    In particular, is the entry for EL (Greek) right or have I to put, instead 1700 for EL?
    So
    Language
    Code Page
    Active
    EL
    1700
    X
    Could you help me?
    Thanks.

  • Unicode conversion, blended codepages etc

    Hello.
    We have a ERP 6.0 single-codepage system on Windows/Oracle.
    The current system codepage is ISO8859-1 (SAP Codepage 1100), which is fine cause we currently only use Latin-1 languages.
    However a new project implementation requires installation of Polish language (ISO8859-2)(SAP Codepage 1401).
    As i see it we have three choices: MDMP, SAP blended codepage 6100 or Unicode conversion.
    Obviously we wish to follow SAP's recommendations and do a unicode conversion, but i would like some feedback on whether my assumptions are correct ?
    Thank you in advance.
    Gerhard.

    Yes, they are.
    MDMP is a proprietary technology that uses the user context and the logon language herein to determine the codepage. It has limitations but it was the only way for systems before Unicode.
    A single codepage system conversion to Unicode is pretty straightforward, I'd do that BEFORE you install Polish (or any other non-Latin-1 language).

  • Getting ÿþ as saved conversations from Lync in Outlook in Office 2013

    Hi,
    I've been trying to get to the bottom of this and have found similar posts, but no one seems to have an answer.
    When I IM someone using Lync 2013, they get a pop up notification but instead of the message they see ÿþ<.  Once they open the chat window, they can see my typed text.  Occasionally, certain people can't see the first line of my chat, but as
    long as they keep the chat window open, they can see everything new I type.
    All my conversations that are saved in outlook show ÿþ< for the text and are unreadable.  I've disabled the saving of conversations because they have become worthless.
    I believe it has to do with BOM but have not been able to find a way to fix this.
    If I copy a conversation from the chat window and paste it into Microsoft Word it shows ÿþ<, but if I paste it into notepad the conversation appears.
    (I had inserted a screenshot here, but am unable to because I am unable to figure out how to get my account "verified")
    I've tried changing the preferred encoding for outgoing messages: to Unicode (UTF-8) in Outlook, but this had no effect and I can't find a similar option in Lync 2013.
    (I had inserted a screenshot here, but am unable to because I am unable to figure out how to get my account "verified")
    I enabled logging for Lync and the event IDs that come up are 1, 11 and 12, to which I cannot find any information for at the moment.
    Any help and or suggestions would be appreciated.

    Hi,
    Did the issue happen only for you or for multiple users?
    Please try to delete Lync User Profile and information on Registry, then repair Office 2013.
    The path of Lync User Profile: %UserProfile%\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Office\15.0\Lync
    The path for information on Registry: HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Office\15.0\Lync\[email protected]
    Then test the issue again.

  • Since downloading Firefox 4, I am having problems archiving gmail conversations from my inbox view. Also, when I go to enter a new event in google calendar, I now have to click the cursor in the box to type the event (it used to let me just start typing).

    Since downloading Firefox 4, I am having problems archiving gmail conversations from my inbox view (either one or several conversations) as it says "No Conversations Selected" when I have selected one or several. Also, when I go to enter a new event in google calendar, I have to click the cursor in the box to type the event (it used to let me just start typing) or else it flips out and starts jumping to day view or another month. Does anyone know how to fix either of these?

  • Page numbers incorrect after conversion from Excel to pdf

    Page numbers incorrect after conversion from Excel to pdf
    ""This above link (thread:834599) is from a case back in 2011 that claims to solve this problem, but it does not solve this problem. I think that customer only cared about having continuous page numbering, not discrete page numbering per sheet.
    ========================
    I still have this issue in Acrobat XI and MS Office Professional Plus 2010. I keep upgrading to no avail. This regression has resulted in a huge time drain for me. If you fixed it, please explain how I can get my hands on the resolution.
    Previous versions of Excel and Adobe Acrobat enabled flexibility around the "Page #" of "Number of Pages" (Page &[Page] of &[Pages]) token, depending on context and usage. The "# of pages" token could represent EITHER the number of pages in the workbook OR the number of pages in the tab/sheet, depending on how you generated the PDF:
    You could select "Selected Sheets" and then select all or some of the individual sheets in the workbook, and the PDF would honor the discrete numbering of each of the sheets, so the first page of each sheet was p1 and the "# of pages" was the number of pages in the sheet; not the number of pages in the workbook; or
    You could select "Entire Workbook" and the PDF would honor continuous page numbers across all sheets, as a single document.
    Now, it only honors the total number of pages in the workbook, regardless of the method you use to publish to PDF: saving as PDF, printing to PDF, using "createPDF" from Acrobat plugin to Excel's menu ribbon; selecting all sheets, some sheets, or Entire Workbook; automatic First page number or "1" under Page Setup > Page> First page number. (This last option, btw, does restart every sheet at p1, but it hardly makes sense if the total number of pages is still the total number in the workbook instead of the number in the sheet.)
    I spent a lot of time trying each which way that the blog posts recommended and have tried this on multiple versions of Excel and Acrobat now.
    NONE of these time-consuming experiments gave me what I wanted.They all insist that "Page #" of "Number of Pages" (Page &[Page] of &[Pages]) is the total number of pages in the workbook or the total number of pages in the selected sheets combined.
    The numbering are correct in Excel Page Layout.
    The same issue happens when using LibreOffice calc. (Although, I never tested with Libre Office before, so I don't know that it ever worked).
    The workaround now is to create PDF for each spreadsheet one at a time, and then compile them using the Acrobat combine/binder feature. All alternatives are extremely time consuming and tedious. It used to be automatic. This is a major regression that has gone untreated for over a year now, maybe two years.
    My task takes infinitely more time to complete than it did with previous versions of Acrobat. That means that days are added to my project, when the functionality used to enable a quick pdf generation that was ready for review, now I have to do this very manual time-consuming set of steps to generate a draft. As the project has grown and more tabs are added, my pdf-generation task takes that much longer. We require lots of drafts. It used to be easy and fast. Now it is hard and time-consuming.
    In my opinion, the problem is not Excel; it is Acrobat because it was introduced with an upgrade in Acrobat, not an upgrade in Excel. The problem was introduced in Acrobat 9 or 10. Please provide a patch or add-on or something.

    If you are setting up the page numbers in Excel, the resulting PDF would display the the page numbers created in Excel. On Excel 2010 support page, (http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/excel-help/insert-and-remove-page-numbers-on-worksheets- HA010342619.aspx#BM2) is stated the following "tip" which indicates by default Excel 2010 starts numbering each tab with 1. Exel's workaround tip is below - 
    Set a different number for the starting page
    Tip   To number all of the worksheet pages in a workbook sequentially, first add page numbers to all worksheets in a workbook, and then use the following procedure to begin the page number for each worksheet with the appropriate number. For example, if your workbook contains two worksheets that with both be printed as two pages, you would use this procedure to begin the page numbering for the second worksheet with the number 3.
    On the Page Layout tab, in the Page Setup group, click the Dialog Box Launcher next to Page Setup.
    On the Page tab, in the First page number box, type the number that you want to use for the first page.
    Tip   To use the default numbering system, type Auto in the First page number box.
    Also helpful in the same section is the note on viewing page numbers. To see if the page numbering dilemma originates in Excel make sure you are using the Page Layout View see below:
    Hide All
    If you want numbers shown on pages when you print a worksheet  you can insert page numbers in the headers or footers of the worksheet pages. Page numbers that you insert are not displayed on the worksheet in Normal view — they are shown only in Page Layout view and on the printed pages.
    Overall it may be easier not to create the page numbers in Excel but instead create then in Acrobat using the Headers and Footers option in Acrobat.  I hope this helps - it sounds like a frustrating issue you are experiencing.

    =IIF(Fields!EmpHireDate.Value = "00000000","00000000",Format(CDATE(MID(Fields!EmpHireDate.Value,1,4) + "/" + MID(Fields!EmpHireDate.Value,5,2) + "/" + MID(Fields!EmpHireDate.Value,7,2)),"dd/MM/yyyy"))
    Also tried this:

  • Codepage coverting error utf-8 from System codepage to iso-8859-1 (PI 7.1)

    Hello Experts,
    In our Prcess, we receive an Idoc from an IS-U system and then we send this Idoc with some Header-Information via http-Adapter to a Seeburger System.
    In the outbound communication Channel we have a XI Payload manipulation with xml-Code iso-8859-1.
    We get the Error: Codepage coverting error utf-8 from System codepage to iso-8859-1, and only for this Idoc, where othe similar Idocs runs correctly.
    Is it possible, that the Idoc contains non-utf-8 chars so the error occurs?
    PS: another XI in our landscape uses a http-Channel with the same configuration in a similar process, an it work, so guess the Problem is not in the communication channel.
    thanks,
    best regards

    > Is it possible, that the Idoc contains non-utf-8 chars so the error occurs?
    A would rather think, that there could be any non-iso-8859-1 character be in the IDoc. For example an czech or polish character.

    yes, that is correct that it crashes with the new code when i have both made it a separate library function node and when i incorporated it into an existing code.  the odd thing is that it actually seems to work now.  i believe that i was using the wrong environment to call the new codes, which is why whenever i tried to revert to the original code previously, it still crashed.  it seems that in order to be called, i need to use Deployment rather than Development and ppc instead of i386 in the active configuration and architecture in Xcode, respectively.  while playing around with the iphone app, it must have reset my defaults to a non-labview friendly form.  so now that i've got that part of the code working, i need to find out why it's still crashing on me.  at first, i thought it must be the random number generator, but testing that separately in the code works just fine, so there must be something internal in the code.  probably a memory allocation fault.  but now that i can actually get everything running once more, i should be able to sort that issue out myself.
    thank you very much for the help.  sorry i didn't actually have anything to fix, unfortunately.  i'm going to spend some time trying to debug this section of code to find where the fault lays.  i may come back if i cannot find it in there, but hopefully it will not come to that.
    take care and many thanks,
