Data Conversion on Transports

Hi all,
I am new to Solution Manager.
And I would like to know if anyone has worked on data conversion on the transports that have been created in the satellite system before golive on Solution Manager Change Request Mangement functionality.
Please share your experience and thoughts.
Appreciate in advance.
Mike.

Hi Scott,
Compare the user profile of the user who is able to see the plant description with the user who is not able to see the plant description & check which authorization is missing.

Wrongly Activated Extended Withholding tax before data conversion

Hi all,
In 1099 Reporting for US, I have activated Extended Withholding Tax before conversion of data from Classical to Extended Withholding Tax. I have done this in Development system with transport request.
If anybody has come across similar situation, pl help me with your valuable inputs.
1. Will I be able to deactivate the extended withholding tax and do the data conversion and activate again.
2. If not, what will be the consequences of not doing the data conversion of existing data.
Kindly help me to come out of this crisis.
Thanks in advance.
San.

Hi,
Yes it will be possible.
I haven't really faced this situation in EWT, but in another similar migration.
I do not know the extent of customisation you did for EWT or whether the documents you posted after activating did get posted in the EWT area.
The only place I think you may face will be in the migration itself, where these documents may give you errors is in the actual data migration step. But there would be some solution for that.
You need to see what options you have. Can you let this situation continue? Was this migration not a prep for doing the migration in production or just a test? If not then you will need to do something. This should have no impact on any migration you plan for the other systems (Quality/Production) in the landscape.
You can log in an OSS message just in case.

TcpListener not working on Azure: Unable to read data from the transport connection: An existing connection was forcibly closed by the remote host

Hi Everybody,
i'm playing a little bit with Windows Azure and I'm blocked with a really simple issue (or maybe not).
I've created a Cloud Service containing one simple Worker Role. I've configured an EndPoint in the WorkerRole configuration, which allows Input connections via tcp on port 10100.
Here the ServiceDefinition.csdef file content:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<ServiceDefinition name="EmacCloudService" xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/ServiceHosting/2008/10/ServiceDefinition" schemaVersion="2014-01.2.3">
<WorkerRole name="TcpListenerWorkerRole" vmsize="Small">
<Imports>
<Import moduleName="Diagnostics" />
<Import moduleName="RemoteAccess" />
<Import moduleName="RemoteForwarder" />
</Imports>
<Endpoints>
<InputEndpoint name="Endpoint1" protocol="tcp" port="10100" />
</Endpoints>
</WorkerRole>
</ServiceDefinition>
This WorkerRole is just creating a TcpListener object listening to the configured port (using the RoleEnvironment instance) and waits for an incoming connection. It receives a message and returns a hardcoded message (see code snippet below).
namespace TcpListenerWorkerRole
using System;
using System.Net;
using Microsoft.WindowsAzure.ServiceRuntime;
using System.Net.Sockets;
using System.Text;
using Roche.Emac.Infrastructure;
using System.IO;
using System.Threading.Tasks;
using Microsoft.WindowsAzure.Diagnostics;
using System.Linq;
public class WorkerRole : RoleEntryPoint
public override void Run()
// This is a sample worker implementation. Replace with your logic.
LoggingProvider.Logger.Info("TcpListenerWorkerRole entry point called");
TcpListener listener = null;
try
listener = new TcpListener(RoleEnvironment.CurrentRoleInstance.InstanceEndpoints["Endpoint1"].IPEndpoint);
listener.ExclusiveAddressUse = false;
listener.Start();
LoggingProvider.Logger.Info(string.Format("TcpListener started at '{0}:{1}'", RoleEnvironment.CurrentRoleInstance.InstanceEndpoints["Endpoint1"].IPEndpoint.Address, RoleEnvironment.CurrentRoleInstance.InstanceEndpoints["Endpoint1"].IPEndpoint.Port));
catch (SocketException ex)
LoggingProvider.Logger.Exception("Unexpected exception while creating the TcpListener", ex);
return;
while (true)
Task.Run(async () =>
TcpClient client = await listener.AcceptTcpClientAsync();
LoggingProvider.Logger.Info(string.Format("Client connected. Address='{0}'", client.Client.RemoteEndPoint.ToString()));
NetworkStream networkStream = client.GetStream();
StreamReader reader = new StreamReader(networkStream);
StreamWriter writer = new StreamWriter(networkStream);
writer.AutoFlush = true;
string input = string.Empty;
while (true)
try
char[] receivedChars = new char[client.ReceiveBufferSize];
LoggingProvider.Logger.Info("Buffer size: " + client.ReceiveBufferSize);
int readedChars = reader.Read(receivedChars, 0, client.ReceiveBufferSize);
char[] validChars = new char[readedChars];
Array.ConstrainedCopy(receivedChars, 0, validChars, 0, readedChars);
input = new string(validChars);
LoggingProvider.Logger.Info("This is what the host sent to you: " + input+". Readed chars=" + readedChars);
try

writer.Write(orderResultFormat);
catch (Exception e)
LoggingProvider.Logger.Exception("Unexpected exception while writting the response", e);
client.Close();
break;
catch (Exception ex)
LoggingProvider.Logger.Exception("Unexpected exception while Reading the request", ex);
client.Close();
break;
}).Wait();
public override bool OnStart()
// Set the maximum number of concurrent connections
ServicePointManager.DefaultConnectionLimit = 12;
DiagnosticMonitor.Start("Microsoft.WindowsAzure.Plugins.Diagnostics.ConnectionString");
RoleEnvironment.Changing += RoleEnvironment_Changing;
return base.OnStart();
private void RoleEnvironment_Changing(object sender, RoleEnvironmentChangingEventArgs e)
// If a configuration setting is changing
LoggingProvider.Logger.Info("RoleEnvironment is changing....");
if (e.Changes.Any(change => change is RoleEnvironmentConfigurationSettingChange))
// Set e.Cancel to true to restart this role instance
e.Cancel = true;
As you can see, nothing special is being done. I've used the RoleEnvironment.CurrentRoleInstance.InstanceEndpoints to retrieve the current IPEndpoint.
Running the Cloud Service in the Windows Azure Compute Emulator everything works fine, but when I deploy it in Azure, then I receive the following Exception:
2014-08-06 14:55:23,816 [Role Start Thread] INFO EMAC Log - TcpListenerWorkerRole entry point called

I've already tried to configure an internal port in the ServiceDefinition.csdef file, but I get the same exception there.
As you can see, the client can connect to the service (the log shows the message: Client connected with the address) but when it tries to read the bytes from the stream, it throws the exception.
For me it seems like Azure is preventing the retrieval of the message. I've tried to disable the Firewall in the VM in Azure and the same continues happening.
I'm using Windows Azure SDK 2.3
Any help will be very very welcome!
Thanks in advance!

hi Javier,
I changed your code like this:
private AutoResetEvent connectionWaitHandle = new AutoResetEvent(false);
public override void Run()
TcpListener listener = null;
try
listener = new TcpListener(
RoleEnvironment.CurrentRoleInstance.InstanceEndpoints["Endpoint"].IPEndpoint);
listener.ExclusiveAddressUse = false;
listener.Start();
catch (SocketException se)
return;
while (true)
IAsyncResult result = listener.BeginAcceptTcpClient(HandleAsyncConnection, listener);
connectionWaitHandle.WaitOne();
The HandleAsync method is your "While (true)" code:
private void HandleAsyncConnection(IAsyncResult result)
TcpListener listener = (TcpListener)result.AsyncState;
TcpClient client = listener.EndAcceptTcpClient(result);
connectionWaitHandle.Set();
NetworkStream netStream = client.GetStream();
StreamReader reader = new StreamReader(netStream);
StreamWriter writer = new StreamWriter(netStream);
writer.AutoFlush = true;
string input = string.Empty;
try
char[] receivedChars = new char[client.ReceiveBufferSize];
// LoggingProvider.Logger.Info("Buffer size: " + client.ReceiveBufferSize);
int readedChars = reader.Read(receivedChars, 0, client.ReceiveBufferSize);
char[] validChars = new char[readedChars];
Array.ConstrainedCopy(receivedChars, 0, validChars, 0, readedChars);
input = new string(validChars);
// LoggingProvider.Logger.Info("This is what the host sent to you: " + input + ". Readed chars=" + readedChars);
try
string orderResultFormat = Encoding.ASCII.GetString(Encoding.ASCII.GetBytes("\xB")) + @"MSH|^~\&|Instrument|Laboratory|LIS|LIS Facility|20120427123212+0100||ORL^O34^ORL_O34| 11|P|2.5.1||||||UNICODE UTF-8|||LAB-28^IHE" + Environment.NewLine + "MSA|AA|10" + Environment.NewLine + @"PID|||patientId||""""||19700101|M" + Environment.NewLine + "SPM|1|sampleId&ROCHE||ORH^^HL70487|||||||P^^HL70369" + Environment.NewLine + "SAC|||sampleId" + Environment.NewLine + "ORC|OK|orderId|||SC||||20120427123212" + Encoding.ASCII.GetString(Encoding.ASCII.GetBytes("\x1c\x0d"));

catch (Exception e)
// LoggingProvider.Logger.Exception("Unexpected exception while writting the response", e);
client.Close();

GL Data Conversion from Legacy to Oracle EBS

Hi All,
I am tasked with converting legacy data into GL. I have worked on other conversions like supplier, AR and AP conversions but never worked on GL conversion, so I don't know how and where to start, what are the pre-requisites for entering data into gl_interface table how to ensure that data is correct in the .csv file etc.
Kindly request you all to guide me in right direction. Hope to hear from you all very soon!!! :)
Regards

Hi,
When you talk about GL-Data it is the trial balance to be loaded from legacy to oracle applications.
You can use Web-ADI to upload it ,the check list are
The balance for each account comibnation in the legacy system to be mapped to GL-Oracle code combination balance
With respect to open AR, AP Invoices if the invoices are converted using a control account for migration in GL then
the the balance transfered from AP,AR need not be reversed in GL from the source receivables and payables.
In case if the same account combination are for migrating the balances from AP,AR to GL ..Then the balances transferred from AP,AR should be reversed ..so that it does not affect the TB-GL-Balance
Finally ensure that the balance for the TB-tallys with your legacy system and upload it using Web-ADI ,import and
review and post it.
Hope this points helps your GL-Data conversion.

Ramaa

Data conversion strategy for new SOB

Dear Viewers
on 11.5.10
We are creating a new SOB with a change in currency from Feb-11 as this is the requirement
For the same, we need to do data conversion.
I have a confusion for Purchase Orders and Sales Orders
Purchase Orders:
Open purchase orders will be converted, means the unfulfilled PO`s i.e the ones not received and are fully open.
The PO`s which have been recieved but not delivered, Requested the users to clear the intransit receipts.
The PO's which are partially received, what to be done for them?
If a PO is fully received and Delivered will not me converted to the new SOB as its not an open PO
but If invoice comes after Feb-11, than how the matching will be done?
What if a return has to be made moving forward in FEB-11 under new SOB
Sales Orders:
Open sales orders will be converted, that is the ones that have been entered and not yet booked.
Users have been requested to clear off the Sales order lines which are already pick confirmed but not yet shipped, hence they will be shipped and interfaced to AR
For the Sales orders that have been booked, those lines that are not yet processed further will also be converted.
Now what if a receipt comes after feb 11, how to handle this as the sales order wiould not have been converted?
Please give your advise on the data migration strategy for PO`s and SO's.
Please do add any point that may have been missed by me
Appreciate your help
Thanks
Emm

Hi David,
for master data conversion you can use LSMW and the RE-FX BAPIs. (please refer to SAP note [782947|https://service.sap.com/sap/support/notes/782947] ).

Business needs to take a decision whether they are fine with matching the POs manually (i.e. referring the documents and verify), in this case you may capture the PO information in a DFF in the Invoice distribution. Otherwise if it has to be converted identifying the POs under this scenario, you may consider converting those maintaining receipt close tolerance as 100% and matching type as 2 -way (again business approval needed to handle audit issues) in order to avoid the receipts/delivery conversion etc. 
What if a return has to be made moving forward in FEB-11 under new SOB Ideally returns can be done using Miscellaneous/Account Alias Issues specifying the appropriate transaction reasons to clarify the scenario.

Data Conversion in SAP E-Recruiting.

Hi SAP E-Recruiters,
Our client is using a Legacy application for recruiting candidates where it has 5000 candidates data base (internal and external candidates' applications).
Now they are asking for movement of this whole data to the newly implementing SAP E-recruiting system. We are exploring various data conversion methods and found that BDC, LSMW will not work for E-recruiting data upload as we have every thing in BSP/Web Dynpro pages here.
We need your help in finding a solution for moving this data from legacy to SAP E-Recruiting. Pls do the needful.
Thanks,
Sudheer

Sudheer,
So far there are no SAP delivered migration methods or BAPI's available conversion of candidates/applications, as you have already specified BDC's wouldnot work. Internal candidates always can be brought over in eRecruitment with integration techniques between PA and eRecruit depending upon the landscape.
However, for external candidates custom conversion programs have to be written by making use of methods/function modules that are used in BSP/WebDynpro.

Mass collection of data sources in Transport request.

Hi All,
I want to capture the data sources which are available in RSA5. It is already activated and captured in Transport Request. But the Transport request was deleted by somebody.
I want to re-capture the activation of data sources which are there in RSA5. I want to collect 90 data sources in one Transport request.
Can you please guide me a easy way to capture all the data sources in transport request.
Thanks.

Hi,
you might be able to create a new Transport request and add the datasources manually.
check out the table roosource for the sources. you can find your's by filtering on tstpnm.
add the sources with object 'R3TR' and subobject 'OSOA'.

Crystal Data Conversion Issue (Error converting data type varchar to datetime)

Hi,
I can run stored procedure without error in SQL Server using my personal credentials as well as database credentials.
I can also run Crystal Report after connecting to Stored procedure without error on my desktop using my personal credentials as well as database credentials.
But when I upload the crystal report in BOBJDEV and when I run using database credentials report fails saying that "Error in File ~tmp1d1480b8e70fd90.rpt: Unable to connect: incorrect log on parameters. Details: [Database Vendor Code: 18456 ]" but I can run the crystal report successfully on BOBJDEV using my personal credentials.
I googled (Data Conversion Error Message) about this issue & lot of people asked to do "Verify Database" in Crystal Report. So I did that, but when I do it I am getting a error message like this:
Error converting data type varchar to datetime.
Where do you think the error might be occurring? Did anyone faced this kind of issue before? If so, how to resolve it?
(FYI, I am using Crystal Reports 2008, & for stored procedure I have used SSMS 2012 )
Please help me with this issue.
Thanks & Regards.
Naveen.

hello Naveen,
since the report works fine in the cr designer / desktop, we need to figure out where you should post this question.
by bobjdev do you mean businessobjects enterprise or crystal reports server? if so please post this question to the bi platform space.

Billing Legacy master & transactional data conversion/migration in SAP ISU

Hi Experts,
Please let me know, in ISU implementation project, what is Billing related Legacy master & transactional data conversion/migration is done in SAP ISU system.
Thanks in advance

Pankaj,
There is no straight forward transaction to download the Configuration data and export it to a file.
However, you can use the BC set functionality to extract the IMG node with its contents.
Check the following SAP help portal link for more info on BC sets
Business Configuration Sets (BC-CUS) - SAP Library
The archive data that you are talking about; Is it master data or transaction data?
Also, what this data is related to-Financial Documents, Billing related info?
There is one standard transaction SARA through which based on the migration object you can archive the data and export it into a file in a particular location..
Hope it helps..
Thanks,

Data conversion for New GL - Going live during fiscal year

Hi Experts,
My client is going live on Oct 1 (fiscal year in Jan -Dec). So for data conversion we need to load P&L and BalanceSheet as of Sept 30, 2009. I need your help to resolve few open issues. (we have activated Doc Splitting with Zero Balance and Segment )
1) When we load P&L balances - how can I assign Profit Centers to all these P&L iitems .
2) What is the procedure (best practices) to assign Profit Centers to all the Balance Sheet items since we are going live during Fiscal Year
3) When we process open items (AR, AP) in month of October how the Profit Center assignment will work?
(My client will be using Profit /Cost center terminology first time, so we need to map all the B&S and PnL items to Profit centers)
4) What is the best way to map all the Balance Sheet GL accounts to Profit Centers.
Sorry for asking too many questions. Any help would me very much appreciated.
Thanks,
Sam

1) When we load P&L balances - how can I assign Profit Centers to all these P&L iitems .
Each P&L account balance has to be upload with cost centre, then automatically PC will be triggered.
2) What is the procedure (best practices) to assign Profit Centers to all the Balance Sheet items since we are going live during Fiscal Year
Let client decide the profit centre for balance sheet items, since they knows which balance relates to which pc
3) When we process open items (AR, AP) in month of October how the Profit Center assignment will work?
While uploading AR,AP balances, each line item to be uploaded with profit centre, automatically in october PC assignment will work.
(My client will be using Profit /Cost center terminology first time, so we need to map all the B&S and PnL items to Profit centers)
4) What is the best way to map all the Balance Sheet GL accounts to Profit Centers
Try to identify each balance sheet gl balance to each profit centre, this will help in future reports. otherwise put in common pc

R/3 Date Conversion problem

How to convert the R/3 Date to Array.

If you are receiving a date field from R/3, please use SimpleDateFormat(class) to re-arrange your date in any fashion. Along with the method format you can just have your date in any format :
DD-MM-YYYY
MM-DD-YY
DD-MMMMM-YYYY (Month will be spelled out as text)
All you need to do is :
SimpleDateFormat sf = new SimpleDateFormat("DD/MM/YYYY");
sf.format(myDateField);
Since R/3 date conversion is usually for this reason, I mentioned the above class.

First time data is not transported to pop up window through event handler

Hi all,
I am using NWDS 7.0, Now I want to open a pop up on click of a action link.
There are two DCs DC-A and DC-B.
I am calling action from DC-A to DC-B. DC-B contains view of pop up window.
In DC-A I am using intreface controller of DC-B by using used coponents.
Now In the DC-B used components I have created one fireplugin which is connected ith pop up view of DC-B and that firplugin is called from DC-A action to transport data from Dc-A to DC-B.
Problem : when I click first time to open pop-up window then event handler is not called but the windows opened. When I close that window and again open the transported data start displaying on pop up window.
So can you please help me that why first time data is not transported to pop up window.
Thanks

You'll need to use an OARawTextBean. Oracle doesn't support opening links in new windows using OAFormattedTextBean. Just be aware that you'll need to set the CSS class in the HTML as well if you need it formatted a certain way.

Data Conversion Logic

I am now trying to implement a data conversion logic(such as UOM field), I want to load all the data conversion rules in the cache from file and keep them in the cache. So when mapping starts it just picks up the data conversion rules from the cache.
Using GlobalContainer it is ok for one mapping even several UOM fields(just load from file once). But it will load from file again when the mapping is triggered again.
Is there any logic I can use to implememt the data conversion just load from file once?
Regards,
Nick

Hi Arnold,
normally every input should be made in LC, why you enter the data in group currency?
However if you have to start from group currency the only solution to avoid this error is to put at the end of sprunconversion the ON_ERROR_CONTINUE clause.
But remember he will stop to notify every type of error so you have to be very careful and have this clear in mind when some issue occurs with the currency conversion.
