Hi,
Refer following link;
[SAP ERP Solution Browser|http://solutionbrowser.erp.sap.fmpmedia.com/]
Following are the basic differences as far as MM Module is concerned;
Pickup list - Batch where-used list display in transaction MB56
u2022 Until release 4.7, the top-down and bottom-up analyses in the function pickup list for batch where-used list (transaction MB5C) were displayed only in the form of simple output lists. As of release 6.00 of SAP ERP Central Component, the function pickup list for batch where-used list branches to the batch where-used list itself (transaction MB56).
u2022 In addition, user can define how the data in the batch where-used list is displayed, in the initial screen.
u2022 User can use all the settings available in the batch where-used list. For example, he can expand transfer posting or display vendor batch. However, it is not possible to limit the selection to valid plants in the initial screen of the pickup list.
Usability enhancements for transaction MIGO for the posting of goods movements
u2022 For goods movements that refer to purchase orders as reference documents (for example, goods receipt, goods issue, subsequent adjustment), user can specify the ordering plant as an additional selection criterion directly next to the purchase order number and the item number.
u2022 There is a new default value: "copy account assignment fields." When entering other goods receipts, user can copy existing account assignment data from the previous item to use as the default values for a new item. To do this, user has to set the copy account assignment fields indicator in the default values.
u2022 User changes the default values in the menu path "Settings -> Default Values."
u2022 Goods movement is monitored with reference to a material document. When you enter the following goods movements, it is possible to specify a material document, such as the following, as the reference document:
- Goods receipt
- Goods issue
- Transfer posting
- Remove from storage
u2022 Note that these material documents must be documents that have arisen from a goods movement without reference ("Others") and that are not reversal documents.
New report : display list of invoice documents (MIR5)
u2022 Logistics invoice verification offers a new report display list of invoice documents (RMMR1MDI), w hich user can use to display such a list (Transaction is MIR5).
u2022 As an addition to the existing program invoice overview (transaction code MIR6), user have extended selection criteria and display options. For example, on the initial screen user can make selections by one-time customers, invoice gross amount, and entry date.
u2022 User can also show an expert mode, which enables him to select at plant level by FI document, GL A/c posting, and Material Posting.
u2022 In the output list, the report shows both posted and held invoices.
u2022 It does not show invoices without a corresponding FI document; such as invoices planned for verification in the background or which the software has already verified as containing errors.
Requirement prioritizations in materials management
u2022 With Requirement Prioritization functionality user can assign requirement urgency at item level in purchasing and reservation documents.
u2022 The software determines the relevant requirement priority (overall priority) of a material requisition from the combination of requirement urgency group and organizational priority.
Mass maintenance of outline agreements
The following two transactions available:
u2022 Mass maintenance for contracts: transaction code MEMASSCONTRACT
u2022 Mass maintenance for scheduling agreements: transaction code MEMASSSA
Commitment plan for purchase contracts
u2022 With the function of the commitment plan for purchase contracts, it is possible to pre plan value consumption for a purchase contract.
u2022 To this end, a commitment plan is generated for each document item of the relevant contract.
u2022 This commitment plan itself can have any number of items.
u2022 User can define a value and a validity date for each commitment plan item.
u2022 This enables user to pre plan different values for different periods of time.
u2022 The software generates an earmarked fund document for a defined commitment plan item.
u2022 This earmarked funds document can in turn contain several different items with different account assignments.
u2022 The software adopts these account assignments from the item account assignments of the commitment plan.
u2022 If a purchase requisition or purchase order references this contract, the earmarked funds document is copied into the purchase order, and the account assignment is adopted from that document.
u2022 Account assignment to a different account assignment object is then no longer allowed.
Availability check in "Enjoy purchase order and requisition"
u2022 Display and checking of availability are invokable separately in the "Enjoy purchase order and requisition" function, in line with the software behavior on the sales side.
u2022 User invoke the display and checking of availability in the "Enjoy purchase order" function (transaction code ME21N) and the "Enjoy purchase requisition" function (transaction code ME51N) as follows:
- To display the availability overview, choose the menu path "Environment -> Availability." - To check availability, choose the "Check Availability" icon.
- Until this release, if user carried out the availability check for an item of a stock transport order, the software adopted confirmations as per the desired date/time only.
u2022 Two settings are possible with availability check:
- Confirmation as per desired date/time (this is the standard setting and corresponds to previous software behavior)
- Delivery proposal - Full confirmation
External services: putting service items in the purchase order on hold (changed)
User can put purchase orders with service items on hold if these items do not contain any errors. Purchase orders with service items can also be put on hold if errors occur only at header level or as a result of the availability check.
Customizing transactions OX18 replaced by view
The assigned customizing transactions have been replaced by the following view in the following implementation guide activity in customizing for the enterprise structure: Assign plant to company code: transaction OX18 replaced by view V_T001K_Assign. One will find this activity in the implementation guide under the menu path "Enterprise Structure -> Assignment -> Logistics General -> Assign Plant to Company Code."
Goods receipt: new movement types in inventory management
The following new movement types are available in inventory management:
- 107: Goods receipt to valuated goods receipt blocked stock
- 109: Goods receipt from valuated goods receipt blocked stock
Prepayment of invoices
This functionality is characterized as follows:
u2022 User can trigger prepayment of vendor invoices in logistics invoice verification.
u2022 User use the prepayment function for vendors with whom organisation has a good, long-standing relationship.
u2022 The function enables payment soon after issue of the invoice and full exploitation of the date of required payment and existing cash discounts, by posting the vendor liabilities, taxes, and cash discounts in financial accounting in advance.
u2022 The software executes the payment of the invoice regardless of the relevant goods receipt and the outcome of the invoice verification check.
u2022 Most logistics invoice verification standard functions are not affected by the prepayment function.
u2022 When the software posts invoices, it continues to execute the standard checks.
u2022 If the software has already posted the prepayment document, user can make only restricted changes to the header fields of the invoice.
u2022 To ensure adequate and orderly financial accounting postings, a prepayment clearing account has been added to SAP ERP Central Component.
u2022 Upon prepayment, the software debits this account and then settles the account again after executing the check.
Purchasing accounting information to the former SAP Business Information Warehouse
u2022 With the transfer of the purchasing account information to the former SAP Business Information Warehouse component (whose functionality is now part of SAP Net Weaver), it is now possible to maintain Info Cubes, reports, and queries that can determine how and where the costs from purchasing documents have been assigned and controlled.
u2022 As part of the software, a new data source (2LIS_02_ACC) has been created and the purchasing extraction process extended to cover the account information for purchasing orders, schedule agreements, and contracts.
Automatic settlement of planned delivery costs with evaluated receipt settlement (MRDC)
u2022 A new report (RMMR1MDC), available within the logistics invoice verification, can be used to automatically settle planned delivery costs.
u2022 To invoke the report, from the SAP easy access screen, choose the menu path "Logistics -> Materials Management -> Logistics Invoice Verification -> Automatic Settlement -> Automatic Delivery Cost Settlement" (transaction code MRDC).
u2022 Functionality for report RMMR1MRS is enhanced.
u2022 User can use the report RMMR1MRS, "Evaluated receipt settlement with logistics invoice verification (LIV)" (transaction code MRRL), to settle planned delivery costs in addition to goods and service items within logistics invoice verification.
u2022 To do so, set the relevant indicator on the initial screen of the report.
Parking service items
It is now possible to put service orders without errors or with commitment errors on hold.
Report MB5B : Stock on Posting Date
u2022 This Report is available with u201CNon-Hierarchyu201D display option which provides details of Opening, Receipt, Issue and Closing balances of Stock with quantity and value both for a given period.
u2022 This functionality is not available in Release 4.7.
Stock Transfer Between Storage Locations
u2022 Function of stock transport orders between storage locations is available from ECC 6.0 onwards.
u2022 As a result of which user can input issuing storage location with supplying plant.
u2022 Facility of using different delivery types for different issuing storage locations is available.
u2022 Shipping Point data can also be determined based on the issuing storage location

Copy screen ECC 5 to ECC 6

Hi ,
I am want copy screen and some object from ecc 5 to ecc 6..
I want copy one zscreen tab for PO which is not aviable ECC 6 . Can any one suggest easiest way to copy screen.
I know only do

There is no program to copy one module-pool program from one system to another system.
You can transport the program from the source system to the desired system, if there is a transportation path defined. Please check with BASIS guys to get this resolved.
If this is not possible, then you will have to manually copy the code for all includes from 47 system to your system and then manually create the screens and maintain the attributes, again manually.
Yes, REPTRAN can be used to download the program/module-pool. Again, you will have to copy the content from the files downloaded to create the program in your new system. Also, the screens has to be created from scratch from the information in the downloaded files

Hi Jochen,
In all honesty, your two questions are very hard to quantify. Though we keep track of customers who download a software, they are not committed to install it nor do they have to tell us when they have successfully done so. And, trying to predict what customers will do for the next year is like trying to predict your stock's performance. Of course SAP desires for that number to increase!

ECC registered or ECC unbuffered?

Hello, guys.
I'm thinking about expanding Mac Pro memory. My model is 2.66GHz Quad-core (early 2009). The maximum RAM on the official's spec page is 8GB, but it shows 16GB maximum RAM available on the online store (customized option). Here's my question,anyone has successfully upgraded the RAM with a single 4GB RAM?
If yes, which of the following models is recommemded?
1.DDR3 Memory 240Pin Long-DIMM DDR3-1066MHz ECC Registered Memory
or
2.DDR3 Memory 240Pin Long-DIMM DDR3-1066MHz ECC Unbuffer Memory
Thank you in advance!

Not sure if it makes any difference as there is no such specification in the Apple specs. Just says ECC DIMM. In any event the right memory can be found here.

Will a Presario V5120NR accept ECC (vs non-ecc) memory modules?

I cannot find anything down to that that particular level in the specs on the HP website for this particular model. I know it is DDR PC2700 333, but that is a much as I can find/glean. The original memory modules currently installed in the machine (2 256mb) don't indicate either on their stickers.
Thanks!

Non-Ecc only. Max 2GB.
Please mark the post that solves your issue as "Accept as Solution".

Business Partner from One ECC to Second ECC via CRM

Hi All,
I hope i can explain this in simple terms.
We have two ECC and One CRM integration...
We are creating BP in CRM 7.0 that goes to ECC1. At some point of time in future, I would like to
1. Replicate same customer in ECC2, and delete from ECC1
2. Replicate same customer in ECC2 and Keep in ECC1 as well.
Is there a flag we can create so that customer ECC1 customer does not replicate to ECC2, and while removing the flag, BP can replicate to both the ECC systemu2026
Please Help....
Thanks

Hello
I will do my best
- If you want to replicate customers from CRM to ERP, you will have to
- If you want to delete customers in ERP1, you should mark them for deletion. A simple report with a file of removable customers should be enough
- If you want to prevent some customers to be replicated, there are filters available in the middleware console. The easiest way should be preventing a number range to be replicated. If you want some scattered customers not to be replicated, that should also be possible.
- If you want to replicate with the "flag", my opinion is you should use transaction CRMM_BUPA_SEND for triggering the replication.
Regards
Joaquin

XI Dev. connected to ECC Dev and ECC Qas

Hello Folks,
I have a question -
We have 2 XI systems: Development, and Production (no QAS)
And 3 ECC systems: Dev, Qas and Prd.
Now we have the XI Dev connected to the ECC Dev.
I'd like to know if it's possible to also connect the XI Dev System to the ECC Qas system.
I mean, to create the RFC dest. in both systems, a new Business System for ECC QAS; and all the necessary config.... and if it won't take problems when we have to transport the Interfaces from DEV to PRD.
Thanx in advance.
Juan

Hi juan,
just be carefull when you add you QUA config in ID and then when you will transport...
1. in your ID, when will define the config with QUA, do NOT ADD the object to your Scenario.... if for the transport you choose the option "Transport all objects of my Scenario"... else you will have a problem in Prod because of the system QUA. Indeed with transport DEV become PROD but your ECC QUA cannot become ...
2. when you will transport to your PI prod :
- check my first point or use option "Transport by selecting each objects" and choose only object linked link to your DEV.
- delete also the Condition option (if you have one) in the Receiver Determination if in th receivers list you have DEV and QUA.... because after the transport the ECC QUA become nothing.
So yes we can. There is no technical issue.... if you do properly the things !!
Regards.

C4C Integration with ECC (popup in ECC during connection)

Hi,
can someone please help me, to find the issue when sending e.g. customer master from ECC to C4C via HCI.
In ECC I receive the following popup asking about username/password on HCI.... I activated certificate based authentication....
¨
Thank you!
Florian

Hello Florian,
yes the client certificate must be signed by one of the CA's refered in this link:
SAP HANA Cloud Integration
this is because of the security and load belancing environment in front of your HCI tenant.
A self signed certificate will just be removed there and therefore you receive an http 401 error.

Actions to do In BW&ECC to enable ECC Upgrate (SP12)

Hi all ,
I would like to know what action must be done to enable ECC upgrade. Because we find some error messages.
I head somethings about Delta & Set Up Table to delete.
I already done these actions :
In ECC:
Delete all in SQM1 & SMQ2
Delete ALL in RSA7
Delete SET up Table (LBWG) : 03, 04, 11, 12,13 (used in BW)
Delete ALL in SM13
And SP12 is still blocked !!
Is there a SAP best practice or doc about That ?
Thx

Hello Ajay,
What is ECC-SE release. Please note it must be 604 in case of ERP 6.0 EHP4 systems. First let us know what you are tring to install. The error you are facing is generic and doesn't help in understanding the problem!

Problems in EP after the upgrade of ECC 5 to ECC 6

Hi all,
Currently in my company we are using EP 7 and with back end ECC5 . we implemented SSO using Logon ticket , creted System objects, transactional iviews and RFC's Web dynpro Java applications. Now we got a requirement to upgrade ECC 5 to ECC6. if the upgrade is done, do i need to re-implement the SSO ,System objects and re-import RFC for WDJ applications.
what are the prerequsites i need to check form the EP side before upgradation. and after what are the things i need to take care after upgradation
Thanks
Rajeev.

Rajeev,
     I have installed and upgraded ECC5.0 and ECC6.0 in EP7 before. Here are my thoughts assuming you RFC's are not part of any SAP delivered Web Dynpro JAva application (for example ESS/MSS):
       1. Ensure that the upgrade transfers the portal certificate from the ECC5.0 system to the ECC6.0 system by checking it in transaction SSOTRUST2. Also checking that the cert is added to each clients ACL that you need to SSO to.
       2. Each System in the portal will need to point to the new host name if there is one, otherwise, they will be ok.
       3. If your custom web dynpro java applications are using SAP Delivered RFC, then they need to be re-imported. Its possible that some of the code could break because the Import/Export/Table parameters are different.
        4. If you RFC are custom, then you should not have to re-import them.
       5. The transactional iview should be fine.
       6. Test the JCOs that your RFC's are using by going in the portal to Content Administrator --> Web Dynpro --> Click on "Maintain JCO Destinations" and click the "Test" link on each Meta and Model JCO that your RFC's are using. If your not sure which ones they use, find you "Web Dynpro" application in Content Administrator --> Web Dynpro --> Deployed Content. Click on the application, in the right hadn content screen will appear four tabs, click on JCO connections and this will tell you which JCO connectors need to be tested to ensure SSO is still working. Note, the "Meta" Jcos use a username/password, not SSO.
       IF you are implementing ESS/MSS then there is alot more work to do on the portal side.
Those are just some of my thoughts, it should not be too bad on the EP7.0 side as long as your Web Dynpro Java applications are custom and not SAP Delivered.
Regards,
Tom
