Enhancement Pack Upgrade and Portal Implications

Hello Everyone,
We are currently on EHP 4 and running EP/Portal 7.00 SP30 and are planning to upgrade to EHP 6.  Is there a need to upgrade EP when upgrading the SAP landscape to EHP 6?
We are treating the EHP 6 upgrade as a technical upgrade.  Thus the existing ESS/MSS functionality that we have will remain as Java Web Dynpros.  We are also not planning on implementing HR Renewal with the upgrade.
Thank you for the help.
Best Regards,
Scott

Hi Scott,
You wont be having any issues if the SP Level of you EP/Portal 7.00 is 30.
Please check the note 1496212.
According to the note if your SP level is less than 18 then you have to upgrade it to 30.
Your ESS/MSS business Packages will remain the same and for HR Renewal you can deploy its latest Businesspackage.
We had a similar situation and now, we have successfully implemented latest ESS (in WebDynpro ABAP) and MSS (MSS ADDON) in our old portal 7.00 SP 27 (Backend Upgraded to ECC6 EHP 6)
Regards,
Suman

  • Query on Enhancement Pack Upgrade/ Installation-Business Functions install

    I am working on an Enhancement Pack Upgrade. I have the following questions from the Client, can you please help answer u2013
    Scenario u2013 Upgrade from ECC 6.0 to ECC 6.0 EhP4
    1 Using Business Function Prediction service, assume SAP recommends 10 Business functions to be installed. We install the 10 business functions and after 6 months the client realizes that there are some more functions which will help business.
    a.What does it take to install the additional business functions.
    b.Do we have to do the entire EhP4 Upgrade again
    c.If we have to do the entire EhP4 Upgrade again what happens to the initially installed business functions, will that be overwritten
    d.What will be the additional SPDD and SPAU effort to activate the additional business functions, will that be same as the initial SPDD/ SPAU effort.
    2 Can we install all the Business functions available in EhP4. What happens if we install all the business functions. What will be the additional effort or overhead in terms of hardware, database, ABAP effortu2026..?
    Thanks in advance.

    Hi,
    1. For installing additional business functions you need to again run the whole EHPI process. But what I feel is even you install more than 1 business function you will be able to activate only 1 business function per system.
    2. The initially installed business functions would not go anywhere. You need to select them in your solman before the stack.xml file generation.
    3. SPAU/SPDD effforts depends on your system. So no comments.
    4. If you plan to install all business functions then you will need good amount of DB space and your upgrade downtime would be high.

    Thanks and Regards,

    Hi Mahantesh,
    Please remember that the Portal is part of the SAP NetWeaver, so all the improvements will be contained in the EhP for NetWeaver.

    It's very important to remark the following information:
    - This EhP for NetWeaver is not in General Availability, currently is in the RampUp phase, for more details you can check the RampUp page in the SAP Service Marketplace (login required) at: http://service.sap.com/rampup
    - Certain pre-requisites apply (like Support Packages)
    - To get this Enhancement Package you have two options, apply for the RampUp (you have to be in touch with your local subsidiary for details)  or wait for the official release. All the information about dates and procedures are fully mentioned in the links provided before.

  • Security upgrade with Enhancement pack 4 on ECC6

    Hi Everyone,
    Perhaps you already know SAP is prompoting upgrade via Enahncement packs
    so we have upgraded  ECC6 with Enhancement packs 4 and now that we have doen this , if you want to create a role in PFCG this prompts tp peform steps 2A to 2C in SU25
    my question is
    1.Did any one upgrade  to EPH4 on ECC6
    2.If you did , did you perform the steps ( 2A to 2C in SU25)
    3.And also if you perform 2A and 2B , does this already write entires in PFCG ?
    Any thoughts ?
    Regards
    Mark

    Hi Mark,
    > 1.Did any one upgrade  to EPH4 on ECC6
    -->not me
    > 2.If you did , did you perform the steps ( 2A to 2C in SU25)
    --> 2A-C shall be executed after any SP implementation to get the changes from SAP into your tables/roles....
    > 3.And also if you perform 2A and 2B , does this already write entires in PFCG ?
    -->no
        only 2C, but after you have run 2A,2B, youll get your authorizations updated in your roles the next time you use the merge-authroizations function in PFCG

  • Enhancement Pack 3

    Hi All,
    Has anybody implemented Enhancement Pack 3 and activated the profit center authorization?  We curious to hear about the posting and display of documents based on users' profit center authorization.
    Also, does Enhancement Pack 3 allow profit center security for report painter?  Does anybody have report painter reports that restrict users' access by profit center? 
    Thanks in advance.

  • New functionality - Enhancement Packs

    Hey
    my company just got enhancement pack 3 and we are testing some of the functionalities.
    In one of these one can copy from Billing document to CR but I used to get message FX not assigned to CR please check customising.
    That issue has been resolved via trcode VTAF where I created a Target (CR) and Source (FX).  Then I got a message saying that Item category DLN was missing, so  I created that too.
    Now I can create a CR based on a FX but item line is not copied. I get a message but it's quite a long list to check - and I might still not resolve the issue.
    Has anyone tried anything like this before?
    THX

    I solved this myself.

  • Enhancement Pack - Wayaround

    Hey everyone,
    I've got an interesting problem at my hand that I can't seem to find a reasonable answer to. The issue is as follows:
    We are in the process of activating BI content ( our ERP has enhancement pack 1 ) and there are a couple of core datasources missing ( for master data ) which come with enhancement pack 2 and over. And we can't initiate an activity of updating to EP2 as that would delay our current project - however, we are currently testing a proposed solution i.e. trying to transport datasources from a demo-server ( already on EP2 ) ....
    so, what do you guys think can be done for a short-term solution ..... would like any input / suggestions from your side.

    Hi
    This sounds good you can implement however, before proceeding check with basis that, future if they planning to implement EP2 what will be the impact whether overwrite or give any error as "Already Exists".

  • Performance Issue with RF Scanners after SAP Enhancement Pack 5 Upgrade

    We are on component version SAP ECC 6.0, and recently upgraded to Enhancement Pack 5.  I believe we are on Net Weaver 7.10, and using RF scanners in one plant that is Warehouse Managed.  Evidentially when we moved to EHP5, the Web SAP Console went away and we are left with ITS Mobile.  This has created several issues and continues to be a performance barrier for the forklift drivers in the warehouse.  We see there is a high use of java script, and the processors canu2019t handle this.  When we login to tcode LM00, on a laptop or desktop computer, there are no performance issues.  When we login to tcode LM00, with the RF scanners, the system is very slow.  It might take 30 seconds to confirm one item on a WM Transfer Order.
    1.)     Can we revert back to Web SAP Console, after we have upgraded to EHP5?
    2.)     What is creating the performance issues with the RF Scanners now that we switched over to SAP ITS mobile?
    Our RF Scanners are made by Intermec, but I donu2019t think that is where the solution lies.  One person in our IT Operations has spent a good deal of time configuring SAPITS to get it to work, but still it isnu2019t performing.

    Tom,
    I am sorry I did not see this earlier.
    I'm currently working on a very similar project with ITS mobile and the problem is to accurately determine the root cause of the problem in the least amount of time. The tool that works is found here: http://www.connectrf.com/index.php/mcm/managed-diagnostics/
    Isolating the network from the application and the device is a time consuming process unless you have a piece of software that can trace the HTTP transaction between host and device on both wired and wireless side of the network. Once that is achieved (as with Connect's tool) you can then you can begin to solve the problem.
    What I found in my project is that the amount of data traffic generated by ITS mobile can be reduced drastically, which speeds the response time of the mobile devices, especially with large number of devices in distribution centers.
    Let me know if I can answer more questions related to this topic.
    Cheers,
    Shari

  • Impact of enhancing standard infotypes on service pack upgrade

    Hi SAP experts,
    I have a situation where in we had enhanced standard infotype 14 ( added custom fields to structure CI_P0014) in development systems and moved to production systems. Now these changes should be moved to project system in which the service pack upgrade is in progress. Will it impact the SP upgrade if I move my transports to these systems? Will it overwrite the sp changes for IT14?
    P.S : The support pack was not applied to the system in which the std infotype was enhanced.
    Regards,
    Sameena

    You should re-apply any customer enhancements etc to your development environment after SP's are applied - But only after you have a developer review potential impacts from SP and your development.
    I think you would be fine as IT14 isn't updated often in SP's.
    Cheers,
    Brad

  • KE30 and KKO0 hang after EHP5 enhancement pack implementation

    We implemented EHP5 and now KE30 and KKO0 hang up when we double-click on a report.  We tried to run RKD_REGENERATE_ALL_REPORTS and that hangs as well.  We've searched SDN and SAP notes but can't find anything - any ideas????

    Yes, we did enter a customer message and SAP was able to resolve this.  During our EHP5 enhancement pack implementation, for some reason the kernel file abap.pad only got copied to our central SAP instance and not any of our other dialog servers.  Once we copied the newest version of abap.pad to all of our servers, everything works fine.

  • Anywhere to find newly added countries in enhancement pack and support pack

    Our HR wants to proactively identify the new countries being introduced through enhancement pack and support pack, so configurations such as V_T503Z (country assignment for employee group/subgroup) can be updated accordingly.
    How can I find such a list?
    Thanks.
    Joan

    Hi Qiong
    If you have ever tried downloading the notes delivered under CLC or HRSP for SAP-HR Component, you would see that the sub-component names are generally based on country abbreviations example PY-AU, PY-SG etc. Also the country names are mentioned there. So if any new country comes up you would know it from the sub-component name. However, whether you need to configure anything in your system for these new countries depends on the fact whether your client has operations in that country or not and whether your project is supporting that country operations for the client or not.
    It is more likely that we keep checking the CLC and HRSP for any new functionalities introduced by SAP for the countries that we are supporting for the client instead of checking for new countries altogether.
