ECC 5.0 and BO without BW/BI Integration Best Practise

Hi,
I know that SAP can connect with BO system using RapidMart (replacing data warehouse BW/BI). Is this best practise?Because when i see the BI Platform RoadMap,I conclude that BI and BO will be integrate into one product, and i'm afraid to invest right now because in the future it seems we need to implement the BW system to make this BI system optimal.
My company want to use BO without implement BW system right now. SAP system that we use right now is ECC 5.0 and my company only upgrade it to next version when version 5.0 not supported again.Thank you.
Cheers,
Satria

Hi Satria,
the answer depends a little bit on what the requirement is.
RapidMarts are an option to implement a data mart solution on top of an ERP solution. On top of the Rapid Marts you can then use the BusinessObjects tools without hitting the OLTP system directly.

  • What are the best ways (for best performance) in MII to process the incoming process messages from shop floor systems to SAP ECC 6.0 and vice versa?

    Hi All,
    Can you please suggest to choose the best ways (for best performance) in MII (12.2 on NW 7.3), to process the incoming process messages from shop floor systems to SAP ECC 6.0 and vice versa?
    Thanks

    Hi Surya,
    Best practices for flow of data from ECC --> SAP MII --> Shop floor & Vice verse:
    1. Send ECC data through IDOC's/RFC's as messages to SAP MII message listener and BSL transaction process data and update directly on shop floor database as if you configured in Data services or later send those data by web service to shop floor system (i.e. depends on Shop floor machines).
    From Shop floor:
    shop floor --> SAP MII --> ECC
    1. Use either Web service or fetch data from DB and pass data to BAPI's  for sending to ECC through BLS transaction.

  • What is the significance of Party and Service without Party in ID? Help!

    Hi Experts,
        I often get confused with the Party and Service without Party in Integration directory. What is the difference between these two? When to use Party and When to use Service without party?
    Kindly help!
    Thanks
    Gopal

    Hi,
    you need to use a party when you want to change some header fields
    of your XI message (when communicating in B2B scenarios for example)
    with party you can also use IDOC partner profiles other then LS
    (like LI, VN)
    but in most cases in A2A scenarios you never use the party object

  • Are ECC 5.0 and ECC 6.0 components and can run without Netweaver?

    Hi Experts,
    As you know I'm new SAP Basis/NetWeaver on my new job. What is the difference between ECC 5.0 and ECC 6.0? how and where we install NetWeaver or
    how we configured netweaver, is it a separate product? how it talks to Backend system? where do assigned roles in NetWeaver or in Backend system? How can we monitor SSL cert's? urgent...please help.
    Thanks,
    Frank.

    Hi,
    Your question needs lot of explanation but i would try to make it short and simple.
    First SAPNetweaver is platform for all the new releases.Previously, in SAP R/3 4.6C the platform was SAP BASIS after that comes SAP R/3 ENTERPRISE  which was SAP web AS then Came in mySAP ERP Edition 2003 main component was SAP R/3 Enterprise powered by SAP Netweaver and then mwSAP ERP Edition 2005 main component SAP ECC 5.( ERP centeral component).This ECC comes under my SAP ERP and it consists of other as well like portal,BI,SRM,SCM,SEM etc. SAP netweaver has its own features which u can search online and u will get lot of information on this platform which all u r getting in these new relases powered by SAP netweaver.SO it goes like
    SAP R/3 3.1----->SAP R/3 4.6C>SAP R/3 Enterprise-->mySAP ERP2004 -
    >mySAP ERP 2005.
    There are two stacks in SAP web AS 6.4 ABAP and Java both has diffrent schema's.
    where do assigned roles in NetWeaver or in Backend system?
    For ABAP we can assign the roles from Tcode : pfcg
    and for Java UME or Visual administrator .. it depends on the datasource.
    For maintainning SSL u can view tcode :STRUST
    I hope it has cleared ... if yes reward points

  • 4.6c Upgradfe to ECC 6.0 and 7.3

    We are running 4.6c, patch 44, on an AS/400 model 840 with v5r1.  We know we're way behind the curve and need to upgrade.
    We plan to move off the AS/400 and go to HP blade servers running Windows 2008.
    My question is, can we upgrade straight from 4.6c patch 44 to ECC 6.0 and NetWeaver 7.3 without have in move to the latest 4.6c patch?
    Thanks,

    Hi Bill,
    unfortunately, it is not possible, to upgrade to 6.0 with lower than V5R3 - support is available as of V5R4.
    And then: ECC 6.0 contains Basis 7.00, 7.01 and in 6 month 7.02 - but NOT 7.3. 7.3 will be available as Basis release soon for e.g. BI.
    So, either you need to upgrade your OS first or you need to upgrade to ECC after the migration. We did this at another customer in the US and were below 50h (including moving the data via the ocean). So, it might be worth, to think on "on-step" with migration first and then upgrade directly attached in one downtime.
    If you do have more questions, just contact us offline, we did several of these kind of things ...

  • SAP ECC 6.0 and BW 3.1

    Hi,
    We are going to an upgrade from SAP 4.6C to ECC 6.0, and we are going to leave the BW in 3.1.
    There is any problem?
    Does the BW needs also an upgrade?
    Can you help me on this mather.
    Kind regards,
    Nuno Silva

    BW itself should continue to work without any problems.
    If you convert your ERP after (or during) the upgrade to Unicode you will need to reflect in the BW that it's talking to a Unicode system.

  • Using the Open Catalog Interface (OCI) between SAP-ECC 6.0 and SAP-MDM

    Hello ASUG Community.
    I'm working on an SAP-MDM project where we will configure the OCI interface between SAP-ECC 6.0 and SAP-MDM.  The business requirement will be to punch out to SAP-MDM's catalog from SAP-ECC for expensed items (e.g., no material master record exists in SAP-ECC).
    The data that will be returned to SAP-ECC will be purchase price info, material group, short text, & our global SAP-MDM item number.
    The question I've been trying to design around is "where to store the SAP-MDM item number"?
    I've looked into creating a custom filed on EKPO but now feel that a configured text field will be the best solution from an SAP-ECC point of view (less effort on the SAP-ECC side from a development perspective, no need to regenerate the EKPO table, etc.).
    The question I'd like to pose to ASUG is.... Does anyone have experience or an opinion to offer using this functionality?  It seems that I will have to code in a user exit or BAdi to insure that the SAP-MDM item numbers are returned to the appropriate text field on my POu2019s.  Or can this be done using the standard OCI functionality?
    I found OSS note 1347656 which references BADI "ME_CATALOG_INTERFACE" but I'm not sure if this right path to go down or if this would be the correct place to code non-conforming OCI mapping requiremetns.
    Any insight would be most appreciated.
    Thanks.  Sincerely,
    Rich Wortmann

    I would suggest you create a new field for this as you may require thois going forward for reporting as well. Text fields are difficult to report.
    Sorry not sure about the BADI to use.

  • What is the best way to open emails and attachments without using wifi?

    For I-phone and I-pad, what is the best way to open emails and attachments without using wifi?  I turned off wifi in my settings but my boss thinks there may be another way and a better way to use something else instead of wifi.  Any help would be appreciated!  Thank you!

    Thanks!  That is a very good question you post.  My boss asked me that and I am assuming that he is having issues with using wifi wherever he is at.  My boss is the kind of person that when he asks something you look into it and ask him no questions...he's the only one asking questions!  But thank you for your response I will tell him the information you told me and hopefully that will help!

  • Unable to load ITUNES onto PC HP, windows 7 Home Version.  Error message reads "Application Application Support not found".  "Unistall and reload".  I have done that 4 times on Explorer and Firefox without success.  Help??

    Unable to load ITUNES onto PC HP, windows 7 Home Version.  Error message reads "Application Application Support not found".  "Uninstall and reload".  I have done that 4 times on Explorer and Firefox without success.  Help??

    I had gotten a similar problem, except with "provider services", i believe, but i solved it by copying sqlite3.dll from E:\Program Files\Common Files\Apple\Apple Application Support to E:\Program Files\Common Files\Apple\Mobile Device Support. doing that solved my first problem, but now i have been getting the error described in this topic (unable to load dataclass info... etc.). i tried reinstalling itunes (i already had 9.1.1, and thats what i reinstalled) by using the method described on apples site (using the "remove programs" tool in the control panel) and then downloading and installing itunes. when i opened it again, i still got the same error, and just now i got an error saying "the instruction at "0x00aadb6b" referenced memory at "0x00000008". the memory could not be read" it gave me the option to cancel and debug, or to press ok and terminate the program. I tried pressing cancel, and the popup went away but nothing else happened. a minute later the popup was back, so i pressed ok and itunes quit. Upon opening Itunes again, i got the very same error. sorry for the long post, but its really been bugging me. thanks for any help you might give, and if you need anymore info, feel free to contact me.

  • AP with PO and AP without PO

    Does anyone has documentation on AP with PO and AP without PO?
    Thanks

    The only difference i can think of for these 2 scenarios is in case of AP with PO, the Invoice is entered using T Code MIRO, where as without a PO it is done through FB 60.
    Hope that helps..

    Open Applications and the the Utility folder and then Keychain Access app. In there you will find all the usernames and password that have been saved. For some reason it is not saving those passwords and or not using the ones that have been saved.
    This is fairly common with Mac OS X as it happens for no apparent reason just all of a sudden.

  • I was trying to get the iOS 8.2 on my iPhone 5 but then it stopped and my phone is now on recovery mode I have pictures I need and they did not all fit on iCloud  how can I use the phone again with ALL my pictures and videos without restoring it?

    I was trying to get the iOS 8.2 on my iPhone 5 but then it stopped and my phone is now on recovery mode I have pictures I need and they did not all fit on iCloud  how can I use the phone again with ALL my pictures and videos without restoring it?

    Contacts are designed to be synced to a supported application on the computer or a cloud service.
    Pictures taken with the device are designed to regularly be copied off the device to a computer as would be done with any digital camera.
    If you have failed to use the device as designed it may be too late to recovery anything.
    Is the device regularly backed up to a computer via iTunes?  If so, the most recent backup (when restored to a replacement iOS device) should contain all contacts and pictures as of when the backup was created.

    Restore the device from the backup created.
    If no backup exists, there is nothing to recover.
