Downgrade feasability from ECC6 to 4.6c

Gurus,
Am working on a case study which consists of assessing if several programs, screens and customizing today working in ECC6 core model could work in 4.6c SAP version. The idea is to implement a minimal scope of Plant Maintenance processes, customizing and programs to familiarize a unit which works in SAP 4.6c with maintenance management before the full core model is implemented in ECC6 Hp4 after local system upgrade. I am wondering about the best approach on this topic.
First very basic question, is there a way to assess if a specific program is compliant with 4.6c version ? Can 4.6c compatibility for specific developments made on SAP screens (CL30N, MM01/2/3) be tested beforehand ?
Any valuable experience in such an approach definition will be appreciated,
Thanks a lot,
Olivier

Hi David,
In my opinion, Note 1090842 should solve your requirement.
I hope the following section from the note is already taken into consideration for your import procedure:
Furthermore, general logical transport problems occur that are not specific to a certain release, especially concerning the usage of functions that are not available in the previous release. When you, for example, use functions that exist only as of Release 7.1, especially ABAP statements, the return transport to lower releases is not recommended. At least, you must manually repair these objects after the import. In cross-release development projects with regular transport requirements, we recommend that you carry out your developments in the earliest target release and then transport these developments to subsequent releases because this is usually linked to fewer complications.
A general prerequisite for this type of transport is that the R3trans belonging to the system is used during both the import and export processes.
The R3trans is an executable file which is a part of the SAP system's kernel (in location /usr/sap/<sid>/SYS/exe/run). This tool is used by the tp program while perfoming any export/import activities. The R3trans is usually different for different releases - the same way that you need different kernel files for different releases. However as per the above prerequisite, it is suggested to have the same R3trans executable file being used during the export from source system and import to target system. Means you would have to copy the ECC 6.0 system's R3trans file to the 46C system kernel directory before performing the import.
Regarding the R3trans version required on your systems, as per Note 638357, you need to use the tp and R3trans files with release date later than June 02, 2008. So taking the latest tp and R3trans files available on the SMP should be enough.
Also suggest you to check thread:
Transport objects from 4.6C to ECC 6.0?

Hi Succhi
There are a number of oss notes to check: 1169856, 720147, 550343, and 549209
Please make sure that the text tables are included in the filter as per note 720147.
Also include the configuration as per note 549209.
It is necessary that the same text types exist in both systems so please review the configuration carefully.
I hop this helps.

Hello Prem,
1. Basically Tcode RSA1 - Modeling - Source Systems - right click the "Source Systems" on the right - Create - Automitically create SAP system
2. Haven't heard of BW 3.5 based on NW 2004s... Please check the release of BI_CONT component from menu System - Status - Component info. Likely you find 7.0.x instead of 3.5.x

Hi Prem,
I need to correct you first ..:) 2004s and ECC6 both are same and both comes with BI 70. For your question my aqnswaer is get a seperate BI system with that you can connect to either of the servers.

Re-load from ECC6

Weu2019re on BI7, but using the old BW 3.x Dataflow, no new BI7 Dataflow.
Because of the data quality problem, I would like to delete all the Request from the existing data model (i.e InfoCube, Aggregate, ODS, Master Data, PSA) and perform the full load for all this again.
1.) For InfoCube, I will right-click the InfoCube ->Manage ->Request tab, then select the Request and click on the Delete button manually.
2) For Aggregate, in InfoCube ->Roll Up tab, click on Aggregates button, then open the InfoCube, then click on Deactivate button. (after the re-load, I need to click on Activate button again)
3) For ODS, I will right-click the ODS -> Manage ->Request tab, then select the Request and click on the Delete button manually.
4) PSA, I will right-click on each Datasource ->Manage, then select the Request and click on the Delete button manually.
Questions:
A) What about the ODS Change Log table? How can I delete them?
B) What I understand is Master Data will always be overwritten. So there is no need for me to delete the data for each Master Data correct? Because when I re-load all the data from ECC6, all the data in the Master Data will be overwritten, correct?
C) Is there any other thing that I need to take care in order for me to re-load all the data again from ECC6 into BW?

Ganesh,
Exactly how we can delete the Change Log via SE16?
What happen if we didn't delete the Change Log? Will it cause duplicate record later?
1.) For InfoCube, I will right-click the InfoCube ->Manage ->Request tab, then select the Request and click on the Delete button manually.
Is there a way to delete all the Request in the InfoCube in background instead of one by one manually?
Also, what happen if the Request in the InfoCube has been compressed, and it also have Aggregate? How to delete them?

Data Load from ECC6 in GC or LC

Hi Friends,
Have a small query. When i extract data from ECC6. Should i take the data in GC (Group currency) or in LC (Local Currency).
If i do the extract in local currency how does the system handle the currency conversion from Local currency to Group currency. What is the normal procedure.
What is the use of taking TC (Transaction currency) as i understand, the system shall convert the transaction currency into local currency in ECC6 so why do i need TC in BCS.
Shall be thankful if you could reply ASAP.
Cheers
Parmanand

Hi
Hey it will affect; wont it because when i take the value in TC the value shall be different whereas when i take it in group currency it shall be different. For eg My group currency is EUR and my local currency is GBP. When the system posts a document in ECC6 for e.g. £100 then the group currency entry shall be 120 Euros (Considering a currency conversion rate of 1.2 between GBP to EURO). In such a case how can i take LC = GC, will it not be wrong.
It shall be correct where the LC and GC are the same currency. for eg if my transaction in LC is in EUR then the GC amount shall remain the same as the GC is also EUR.
Please guide.
Cheers
Parmanand.

How to Downgrade Rpd From 11g to 10g???

Hi all,
I want to know how to downgrade rpd from obiee 11.1.1.5 to obiee 10.1.3.4.
please share the valuable links.
Thanks.

First, you will have to completely uninstall 11g, see steps below:
http://obiee911.blogspot.com/2013/01/uninstalling-obiee-11g-instance-on.html
This should be followed by installing 10g, and then applying 10g patches to reach 10.1.3.4.1 version. I hope you have all the right 10g installation files available. Im not sure if you can download them from Oracle anymore, please check before proceeding.

About Routing transfer from ECC6 to ECC5

Dear all,
We need transfer routing data from ECC6 to ECC5,Because of our tech dept create routing at the Ecc6 system,But our manufacture at the Ecc5 system,Now we need transfer routing from Ecc6 to Ecc5,we try the idoc message "LOIROU02",It cann't create inbound parameter at the ECC5.Did you have a good idea for this issue?
Edited by: bill yang on Aug 5, 2011 4:22 PM

Hi Yang,
I transferred routing in this way. 1) use RCPBTCO1 this program to generate dataset. You use this report to generate a dataset in order to transfer routing data from one ERP system to another ERP system. Then you use the dataset for batch input in the other ERP system.
The program, RCPTRA01 takes the data from the sequential file and makes batch input session for creating routings. The following application transactions are available currently:
CA01 Create routing
CA11 Create reference operation set
QP01 Create inspection plan
TRANSACTION CODE: OP8D
Check this this one program will create batch input file other program will create batch input. Then in receiver system run the sm35 that will create routing.

How to transfer service ticket data from ECC6.0 to CRM 7.0 using LSMW?

You have to convert your long string to a table of shorter strings.
There may be other ways, but one possibility is to use a loop to process you string.
while (there is something left)
put the next e.g. 1024 characters in a new row of your table
endwhile
If you need to reconstruct your string from the table, don't use simple concatenation since it will remove blanks at the end of lines. Believe me (from experience) sooner or later this will happen.
Instead you need to either set the subsections of your long string, or insert from the end of your table and keep shifting the contents (probably less efficient) right

Download data from ECC6.0 to CRM

We want to download data from ECC6.0 to CRM 2.0.
I am facing an error while trying to use Function module 'SMW_CALL_MIDDLEWARE'
to create and post BDOCS in CRM 2.0.
The BDOCs are getting posted successfully. However, function module is updating
only SMO* ( Mapping) tables but not the CRM database tables. Does anyone has any suggestion on this.

I think your corresponding mobile bridge needs to be properly active. That should take care of posting data from CDB to CRM.

HT4623 How to downgrade iPhone from ios6 to ios5 without jailbreaking?

How to downgrade iPhone from ios6 to ios5 without jailbreaking?
It is uncomfortable to use Appstore and uninformative Apple maps.
I regret, that I updated my iOS5, can I get it back?

Sadly, Apple is amazingly good at keeping users from downgrading an iPhone. For some reason, a prior update (5.1.1) bricked my 3GS, and that's how I learned the hard way how firmly Apple had control of the upgrade/downgrad process. I find that annoying, as well as the fact that Apple "pushes" (figureatively and literally) updates on users, many of whom simply update immediately, without realizing there could be a downside. I've been amazed at how many non-techy iPhone using friends have complained to me about maps, and they wish they had never updated to iOS 6.
Anyway, I'm still using iOS 5 on my iPhone 4S, as I just feel too attached to my good old Google-based Map app (and the web version of Google Maps is really very different than the App version -- I tried it, thinking I would finally update my iPhone, but was really dissatisfied with the web version). I do know iOS 6 is superior in many ways, but for now, I am just that attached to my good old Map app.
