CU & UC from 46c to ERP 2005

Hi,
I am in Planning phase for CU & UC from 46c to ERP 2005 need to know few things
- Hardware requirement for Unicode preparation system - CPU/ Memory and Storage - I am planning to use Copy of Prod for Unicode prep system : My prod DB is 1TB.. Which SAP verion is recommanded for Unicode Prep- 4.7 on 620 or directely ERP2004 / 640 or ERP 2005700
- Storage requirement for Export dump for 1TB database ??
- Approximate Timing to export / import -- I know it depends on CPU's/ memory etc os source/ target ... in general ??
- SAP suggest 10-30% increase in Memory - any comments ?
- SAP suggest 40-50% increase CPU usage - any comments ?
One last question :
i am planning to use parallel landscape for this for non-prod but Prod I am planning to use same hardware as it is today. any comments on this idea ?
Awating response from experts... thanks in advance....
Jignesh

Hello Jignesh,
>> I am planning to use Copy of Prod for Unicode prep system : My prod DB is 1TB.. Which SAP verion is recommanded for Unicode Prep- 4.7 on 620 or directely ERP2004 / 640 or ERP 2005700
As you told you have 4.6c ... why are you want to make a copy of the prod system? You can make all preparations for that in the "Live"-system and upgrade directly to ERP 2005 (take a look at sapnote #928729). After that you can make the unicode conversion... i have done a CU&UC for 4.6c to ERP 2005 ... the steps are:
1) Make preparations in 4.6c
2) Upgrade your 4.6c to ERP 2005
3) Make the unicode conversion
4) Make After-Steps
>> Storage requirement for Export dump for 1TB database ??
I have exported a 2.4 TB database.. the export data was round about 550 GB
>> Approximate Timing to export / import -- I know it depends on CPU's/ memory etc os source/ target ... in general ??
There is no general.. in my experience it depends on the biggest tables (if you export parallel) and the cpu for the convertion. I have used distribution monitor and table splitting to get good export times. Only to say some values.. i needed round about 13 hours for exporting and importing the 2.4 TB database with the distribution monitor (package & table splitting)
>> SAP suggest 10-30% increase in Memory - any comments ?
>> SAP suggest 40-50% increase CPU usage - any comments ?
I have seen that the memory is really a big topic.. but the CPU was not as expected... but this also depends on the amount of parallel users. In my experience memory +40% and cpu +25%.

Upgrade from 46C to ERP 2005

Can you help me with some questions?
We are going to upgrade from 46C to 6.0 and we have questions.
1. How much do we expect the database to grow when we
   change the format?.
2. What are the minimum requirements of the workstations
   with the new version?
3. How the change of EBCDIC to ASCII can affect of Disck
   load?.
4. What percentage grow the data, when this is changed to
   ASCII?
5. How the changed to ASCII affect the server.?
6. Is necessary grow in memory and CPU?
7. Is possible install several application server Intel
   with the AS/400 Data base, once the changed to ASCII?
8. Is affected the performance of the system is we
   installing hard disk of 30GB with hard disk of 70GB?
9. What is the impact if we made the upgrade with Unicode
   or No Unicode?

Error in Prepare Upgrade from 46C to ERP 2005 - R3trans too old

I have seen a few threads on this issue, but I am still slightly puzzled.
The error message in Prepare ( initialisation - 02 ) is that the R3trans is too old, it needs to be at least 07/05/2007.
The version of R3trans in the put directory is a 46D one ( 6.05 ) and the date is previous to that mentioned, however the most recent version of the 46D that I can download is the 22/04/2007 and you will get the same error.
Ther error seems odd in that it would normally complain about the version rather than a date and it is happy about tp etc.
I could download a more recent version of R3trans, but that would be a 6.40 or 7.0 !
I have the FIX_ERP2005SR2.UPG in /usr/sap/put.
Has anybody tripped over this issue ? Cheers

The 46D R3trans was a bit of a red herring, however I do have a problem.
The 7.00 kernel goes into \usr\sap\put\exe etc and it is a 7.00 R3trans ( 6.14 ). When the initialisation phase is run ( 2 ), it complains that the R3trans is too old and it quotes 07/05/2007.
If I download the newest version of R3trans it fails with a connect problem. For some reason it goes off to /usr/sap/SID/SYS/exe/run to reference the dboraslib.dll, while the earlier version of the 7.0 R3trans references it within /usr/sap/put.
It could be something like Oracle Client environmental settings !
Anybody had this issue ?
Cheers
The R3trans was R3trans_119-20000961.SAR

Upgrade batch inputs from 4.6C to mySAP ERP 2005

Hi,
we are planning to upgrade from 4.6C to mySAP ERP 2005 (ECC 6.0). We are using batch input/call transaction in various (interface) programs (primarily in modules SD, MM, CS/SM, FI, CO). I would be grateful for any information that helps to estimate the effort to upgrade our batch input code. In which areas/modules/transactions did you encounter problems with batch inputs? How severe were these problems (one or two fields moved to another screen, or major redesign)? How did you address these problems (change BI or convert code to use BAPI)?
Thank you
Thomas

Hi thomas,
we were working on batch input's and our scenario is something like convertion of bdc's from 4.5b to ECC5. well, it was a long process of upgradation. and coming to the part of BDC's
Q) any information that helps to estimate the effort to upgrade our batch input code.
   we had 300 BDC's to convert from 4.5b to ECC5 and with a ten member team of ABAP experts it took us 30 working days to complete the process.
Q) In which areas/modules/transactions did you encounter problems with batch inputs?
   Mostly, we had problems from FI and something like in Revenue recognition process. The problems comes, when the whole transactions screens changes for the process. at this time we have to write completly a new BDC's. if we have right functional specifications and functional experts, it will be easy to convert BDC's.
Q) How severe were these problems (one or two fields moved to another screen, or major redesign)?
    As i have mentioned, out of 300 almost 25 to 50 were minor changes rest were huge changes. a completely new BDC's. the point here is, we were updating from 4.5b to ECC5. it might not be this scenario for 4.6c to ECC5
Q) How did you address these problems (change BI or convert code to use BAPI)?
   well, this is were we are curently working now. and curently there are 4 scenarios (and may be more in the future) were we have to replace three BDC's which are used for material master creation and make it into one bapi satisfying all the conditions of BDC's. actually, we have to find a BAPI( which i couldn't find) so, i have created a bapi. and tougher part is writing exceptions as we cannot write exceptions as we do in function module.
hope this is relavent to what you have asked.
cheers

SES in mySAP ERP 2005 - UNKNOWN FUNCTION from TREX_RFC_GET_VERSION_INFO

After configuring the SES (TREXADMIN, RFC Destination and so on) I was able to run the indexing process successfully.
Selecting the TAB Version from the TCODE TREXADMIN I get the Exception: UNKNOWN FUNCTION from the Function Module call TREX_RFC_GET_VERSION_INFO in TREX_EXT_GET_VERSION_INFO.
The exception is not expected and a dump occurs.
Running a search via TREXADMIN (e.g. for LFA1) I'm getting the Exception OTHERS in FM TREX_EXT_SEARCH_DOCUMENTS at line 338 CALL FUNCTION 'TREX_RFC_SEARCH_DOCUMENTS_V3'.
Any idea?
Which TREX version is expected to work with mySAP ERP 2005? I installed all together from the same NW2004s DVDs.
Sergio

Hi Sergio,
Correct, ERP05 is based on NW04s (TREX 7.0).
You don't necessarily need TCODE TREXADMIN.
For running SES you can use TCODE SES_ADMIN.
To test SES you can use Program COM_SE_SEARCH_IIF_TEST
(You can start it using TCODE SE38).
In order to get the exception fixed, could you create a customer message in the Customer Support System (CSS) on the component BC-TRX-API, please.
Best regards,

Report RFKLBU10: Missing Parameter for Logical filename in Release ERP 2005

Hello Experts,
Report RFKLBU10 in Sap Release 4.6c hat a parameter "Old dataset logical name".
The new version of this report in SAP Release ERP 2005 there is no such parameter.
Is this a SAP-Bug ?
Best regards,
Mike

There are no Export or Print events accessible for the viewer
Since it sounds like you are creating the reportdocument object in your click event, the settings on this object become out of scope on successive postbacks executed by other events.
to get around this without major changes, you can place your "report" object in session in this event and retrieve it from session on successive postbacks. This should solve your problems around navigation, printing and exporting. What you will need to do is check if the session object exists (usually in page_load or page_initialze) and if so, retrieve it from session and bind it to the viewer's reportsource. If the session object does not exist, then do nothing (ie you have not clicked your button yet that retrieves the parameter values from session and loads the report). Also, in your click event you can check if the report session object exists and if so, remove it so that it can be re-created with your new parameter values (ie i'm assuming the only time you want to set parameter values is in this event).

ISR NATIVE CONTROLS ERP -2005 is not working in ECC 6.0, MSS 1.0 Version

Hi,
Does anybody knows, why the ISR Controls for ERP 2005 is not working properly. We utilized the DropDown List Controls, we binded to the correct field in the FORM. We have filled the ADDITIONAL_DATA table, on the SET_ADDITIONAL_VALUES method also, to populate .
The DropDown values are not populating in runtime.
We are running ECC 6 Version, Basis is on SP12, and Application Platform is on SP09. We have MSS 1.0 for SP 10.
What might be the problem, what do you feel about procedure in ISR Controls binding?
INFO: It doesn't have that SAP-VHLIST , illusion here.
Please guide me , as I am strucked from all ways, any note, patch to apply, any config issue.
thanks,
chitti babu

Hello,
In case of DDLB, apart from the binding, there's something else needs to be done.
Goto binding tab : incase adobe life cycle designer 7.1, a link "Specify item values" is highlighted.
$record.sap-vhlist.FIELDNAME\.DATA\.FIELD.item[*].
Item Text : text
Item Key :key.
This should resolve ths issue.
Hope this helps.

IDES ERP 2005 / open ABAP dictionary conversion during SPAM Update

Dear all,
First of all, I'm currently busy implementing a educational enviroment for our company, we are using IDES MySAP ERP 2005 SR1 MSSQL.
At the moment we are trying to upgrade the SPAM version from version 20 to 22.
However, during the requirement checks the following error occurred :
Open conversions in the data dictionary
Phase CHECK_REQUIREMENTS: Explanation of Errors
Some open conversion requests still exist in the ABAP Data Dictionary
for the following ABAP Dictionary objects. To avoid inconsistencies and
loss of data, you must process these conversions first.
Proceed as follows:
- Open a new session.
- Start the Database Utility (transaction SE14).
- Correct the inconsistencies for the specified objects.
- Repeat the import phase. If no more inconsistencies are found, the
import continues.

Object Type Object Name
Table Index LXE_WRK_4 ~ STA

It seems that the indexes mentioned above are missing or doesn't exist!!!! i've tried looking for a sap note or a solution on SDN. However, haven't found a solution at all, or I'm looking at the wrong spot.
Is there a note or can somebody provide me what's in the indexes, so i can create it in our IDES system.
Regards,
Yam-Lang Lee

Hi Kiran,
Thank you very much. I managed to create the first index.
However not the indexes on table SC2T327F363DFA4T. Can't find any information for the indexes for this table. Did found note 959811. There it state that de indexes were deleted. But still stuck in the check_requirements of the SPAM Update!

BAPI_ SALESORDER_CHANGE in MY SAP ERP 2005- Issues

Hi Gurus,
We are trying to change a Sales order using the BAPI : BAPI_ SALESORDER_CHANGE in a Zprogram .
The program works fine in SAP 4.5B version. But in MY SAP ERP 2005, we get error with the BAPI.
Scenario : The BAPI is working when the Purchase Order number is not maintained in the Sales Order.
It throws the Error "purchase order number in document number already exist" when the Purchase order number is there in the Sales Oder.
We executed the BAPI from SE37 by passing the parameters in the program and we got the same error mentioned above. Could you please guide .
Thanks in Advance,
S.Roseline

Applied an SAP note for the BAPI BAPI_SALESORDER_CHANGE.

Enterprise service on ERP 2005

Hi all,
Past contribution
URL to Enterprise Service Repository
There's no enterprise service repository on ERP 2005,
but I'd like to research the content of all Enterprise Service on ERP2005.
How can I solve it?
Regards,
Mami Kudo

All you'll get with ERP 05 is what you see with transaction code WSADMIN. Not much there yet. I suspect the delivery of the initial batch of enterprise services got delayed and will probably come later this year in a form of an add-on or patch to ERP 05. Watch out what's downloadable from service marketplace under ERP 05.

SRM as an add-on to ERP 2005

Hi Experts,
I am interested in the Pro's and Con's regarding SRM as an add-on to ERP 2005.
- what is the limitations? Disadvantages?
- What kind of business situations are suited for this scenario?
- What are the benefits?
I hope you can help me here!
Thanks in advance!
Kind regards
Line Wiuff

Hi,
I'm a current user of the add-on.
My organization had an ITS implementation for Purchase Requisition in 4.6 and decided to migrate to ECC6.0 with SRM 5.5 instead of maintaining the old development (I joined at testing phase).
Our scenario is currently limited to shopping carts and customizing was intentionnally kept at minimum level.
The go live happened in November last year.
We have 600+ users among which 100 approvers.
My feedback:
--- integration with HR was not an easy job (mainly because we had Organization Management in our previous implementation).
- we had a big performance issue because our users had been spammed internally by PSM module for 3 years (the system didn't manage to display mailbox with 10'000+ documents, solved by cleaning...),
- given that previously users were creating PR the transition was not really smooth (they re-order similar tings all the time),
- still struggling with an address issue (address on each line of the printed PO if generated from more than one shopping cart). In theory I understand the back-end can be fed with whatever we want but we're not there yet (we may miss MM expertise though).
- quite a lots of notes to apply.
+ it enabled us a direct connection to PSM (Public Sector Management) which is really good in our context (custom n-step approval, use of a BADI),
++ we plan some B2B connection, I already tested it and it was really cool (you shop on another web site, and when you check out there is almost a PO).
++ OSS support good.

Anne
