Failed to open MS Word in Solution Manager (solar01 and 02)

Hi!
I would like to use the MS Office integratin issue in the trasnaction codes solar01, solar02.
Unfortunately it is not possible to open and edit the MS Office documents.
All the other documents like .txt or .html can be opened and edited.
Should I apply some setings in SAP or in MS Office to use this issue?
Thank you

Dear Axel,
You would need to enable the macros. Reger to OSS Note 611090.
The macros in the central layout template for the SAP MS Excel master template are certified. To be able to use the certificate you have to accept it. You only have to do this once. When you open an MS Excel document (in the Layout Builder, in the third processing step, for example, or when you start manual planning) choose the option Always trust macros from this source and then Enable Macros in the Security Warningdialog box. You will not be asked again whether macros should be executed.

Naveen.

How to open multiple Sessions in Solution Manager

Good Day Gurus,
I am currently working on Solman 7.1 Sp12.My question is :Is it possible to open multiple sessions in Solution Manager? Here is the scenario: The client is working on multiple incidents and instead of logging on to the system again to access the 2nd incident he would like to open another session within the current call he is working on.
Is this functionality possible in Solman? I have seen the functionality working before in CRM interaction center not sure if it applies in Solman.
Your help is highly appreciated.
Thanks
Maria

Hi Maria,
Options to Call a Function in an SAP System, by entering transaction codes in the command field, the transaction in bold is the one your want for opening multiple sessions.
You can use the F1 key on the command field to display the following possible entries:
/N to cancel the current transaction
/NXXXX to call transaction XXXX directly from another transaction. Without the prefix, you can only call XXXX from the SAP Easy Access screen.
/O to display the overview of the SAP GUI sessions on your computer
/OXXXX to call transaction XXXX in a new window directly from another transaction
/NEND to end the log on session with a confirmation dialog box
/NEX to end the log on session without a confirmation dialog box
/I to delete the window you are currently using

Solution manager, PI and ERP incl FICA (IS-U) test systems on same HANA DB server Appliance

Hello
I wander is it possible to have Solution manager, PI and ERP incl FICA (IS-U). All for test/system purposes:
I am sure we need separate application servers for Solution manager, PI and ERP incl FICA (IS-U),
I would have question regarding Appliance i.e Hana DB server. can Solution manager, PI and ERP incl FICA (IS-U) products reside on same Appliance i.e Hana DB server in MCOS or MCOD? (I am sure that for production use this is no-go option)
What is the case when renting cloud solution?
Thank you a lot in advance

Check the java part, most of the Solman Web Based thing use the java, check the management console to ensure message server and dispatcher proper work, normally is: http://hostname:50113.
If central note give you problems deimplement all the not complete implemented notes and use SUM
and MOPZ to update your system with the last SP, then apply the central note acording to your SP level.
We found that have the system in the last level prevents a lot of problems because of not complete implemented notes.

Relationship between Solution Manager Diagnostic and CCMS

We are just now looking at Solution Manager Diagnostics and central monitoring in Solution Manager. One thing we are not clear on, and haven't seen anything definitive on, is the relationship between these and CCMS.
Any insight or link to documentation would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!
Jeff Henke

Solution Manager Diagnostics is a diagnostic tool, not a real-time monitoring and alerting tool. CCMS is for real-time monitoring and alerting, and SMD does in fact get data from your CCMS agents, as well as from saposcol and Wily Introscope.
Hope that helps,
David.

Solution Manager DEV and PRD box

In my landscape i have 2 systems for solution manager SMD and SMP , what is the ideal way sap community is using them ...should i divide the solman roles among them or how the 2 system landscape of solman is used ..
Regards

Hello Tiger,
In my experience many SAP customers have a one or two system landscape in Solution Manager.
For customers whose main line of business is providing service with the Solution Manager, I would recommend a three system landscape (dev, qas and prd). For customers who run less critical functionality with Solution Manager, and when costs of hosts for the Solution Manager systems are an issue, one or two tier system landscapes can be also considered. Other than this, I don't know any document with precise guidelines to answer your question. At the end it all depends on the scenarios you want to run, and how critical the functionality you run with Solution Manager is for your company.

When opening DOCX files the filename is appended with .DOC extension and fail to open in Word

When trying to open DOCX files Firefox appends a ".DOC" to the end of them and then Word fails to open them saying "Word cannot start the converter mswrd632.wpc" (using Office 2003 with the Office 2007 Compatibility Pack) - however if I SAVE the file first it saves fine as a DOCX and opens fine in Word.
Any ideas please?

What's happening here is that Firefox sees the mime type for the application (application/msword) and identifies it as a Word document. However, FF doesn't recognize the new(ish) docx extentions, and appends the .doc .
Now, when FF hands the file off to Word for Word to open, Word only looks at the extension (.doc) and tries to open the file as if it were of the older format.
I don't experience this problem myself with the default settings after installation, I'm going to assume that something's been tweaked in your FF installation. I would recommend checking your settings in Tools > Options > Applications

When I try to install abode - it will download but says i have to close firefox before it will install. also i try to open a word document from a website and it will not open - it will only download

i install abode - it will download but not install and indicates i have to close firefox before it will download. Also, I try to open a word document from a website - it will download but not open.

You need to close Firefox to install many plugins, including those from Adobe.
As for the Word downloads, see the changing downloads action section of this link - https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Managing+file+types

Thats it i get a blank crystal report screen.
I would appreciate if experts would help me out..

Don't use localhost as your server name. It's a reserved name and should not be used in code.
Try this also [Kbase |http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/servlet/prt/portal/prtroot/com.sap.km.cm.docs/oss_notes_boj/sdn_oss_boj_bi/sap(bD1lbiZjPTAwMQ==)/bc/bsp/spn/scn_bosap/notes%7B6163636573733d36393736354636443646363436353344333933393338323636393736354637333631373036453646373436353733354636453735364436323635373233443330333033303331333533353333333433363339%7D.do] SAP Note 1553469 - How to enable Database logging in Crystal Reports for Visual Studio 2010

Email and SMS Alerts - Solution Manager - PI and EP

Hi All,
I am trying to do the below scenario.....But somehow i am lost in the process.
I have a three system PI landscape and a Solution Manager. I have included the DEV PI in solution manager for CCMS,the CCMS agents are online and it also reflects in RZ20.
Now the requirement is SOLMAN should send email and sms alerts in below situations which occur in PI system.
1.The ABAP or JAVA engine goes down.
2.One of the filesystem crosses certain predefined limit.
3.Any of the java server node stops working
4.If any critical job gets cancelled in sm37
I am looking at steps on how to define the alert categories, auto reaction methods, also the nodes where i have to assign these auto reaction methods.
I have gone through CCMS documentations, played all sim files and gone through most of the pdf files but i am not able to establish proper steps to do it.
I am Redhat Linux,Oracle 10g, SOLMAN 7 with PI7
Can i extend the same for the EP systems also which are pure Java Stack Systems ?
Also i would like to know if i can send customized alert messages.
Best Regards
Raghu

Hi Juan,
Thanks for your response.
I am looking at the MTE classes i.e for the above situations which MTE classes are required.
Also i have read in some document that we can send the alerts directly to the email IDs and cell numbers without having to mention them in user masters in SU01. Where to mention these ?
I have my SCOT settings done for email servers.
The process which i had built up in my mind is all mixed up and i am lost where to do which configuration
Best Regards

BPM, Solution Manager, XI and Workflow

Project management in SAP Solution Manager (SOLAR_PROJECT_ADMIN and RMMAIN)

Please help me to understand this better u2013 whether this is a gap in the functionality of the SolMan, whether I expect too much, whether it is expected to work in a different way.
In transaction SOLAR_PROJECT_ADMIN one can create a project.
In transaction RMMAIN one can create a roadmap u2013 this is a more or less detailed project plan that can even be exported to MS Project. Via RMDEF and RMAUTH it is possible to create a custom specific roadmap. This specific roadmap can then be assigned via SOLAR_PROJECT_ADMIN and RMMAIN to the newly created project.
However, it is not possible to modify the roadmap once assigned in SOLAR_PROJECT_ADMIN and created in RMMAIN.
This means, as a consequence, that it is not possible to use the Solution Manager as the one and only project management tool.
To specify this further. Usually, in a project, once you have created the roadmap and the overall framework you add all the detailed steps, and all single tasks that are required. As this is not possible in SolMan one needs to use other tools (MS Project) for this. But on the other side the SolMan project plan and roadmap has to be updated frequently to be able to keep track of the progress. So this ends in double work. Manual effort is required to keep this consistent. And it also hardly makes sense to create a new roadmap just to add these small details. With all this in mind itu2019s hard to convince our customers that the SolMan is really a that big benefit for implementation or upgrade projects.
- have I overseen something?
- has SAP designed this in a different way?
- or does SAP oversee this need?
Many thanks & best regards,
Peter Müller

Hi
1) Is deleting older documents is definitely going to improve response time of searching. You said 'yes' but just wanted to double sure.
Yes
2) This program deletes all unsed and de-linked document. I can understand 'De-linked' but not 'Unused'
i meant the samething
3) Deleting documents based on user id is big problem. We have almost 800 Users in SolMan, who has used this project form last 5+ years. So all these 800 users have to go into multiple selection of user id
Try giving *
4) I tried this on our sandbox (SP19 Level) which has shown all unused documents which can be deleted. But this deletion has to be done one-by-one. In our production, if we have 10K+ documents, i assume almost thousand or more will be residing as de-linked in KW
Try giving *
5) Any Documentation available on this program.
Learnt by experience but you can check some sapnotes below
Note 1124579 - Using SOLMAN_UNUSED_DOCUMENTS to delete unused documents
Note 1377997 - SOLMAN_UNUSED_DOCUMENTS: No deletion conf. for each doc.
Hope above clarifies

Solution manager, SLD and SAP MC

Hello,
It seems that both System landscape directory and SAP management console have some overlapping features. The services can be started or stopped in both. Is it true? Does anyone know the difference between these 2 and where does Solution manager fit in?
Thanks
Shaiikil

We can stop, start SAP services from NWA. Now we cannot say Netweaver, NWA and MMC are similar...
MMC is a tool/enviroment provided by microsoft for starting stopping services, managing user rights, security settings, policies and so on...
this can never be compared with SAP Environment for similarities.

Solution Manager EHP1 and BW cubes

Hi,
In solution manager , we have used the productive client as the BW client also. But we would like to know how the cubes are loaded.
I dont see any source systems in RSA1. Also all cubes look like Real time cubes.
So is there a concept of process chains in solution manager ?
Can someone provide more insight into it.
Thanks,
Tanuj

Hi Tanuj,
It depends on which function area you are using. Incident Management reports, Test Workbench, Root Cause Analysis, Business Process Monitoring, and so on. But most of the case, data are loaded into BW Real-time Cube by using BAPI, which called from scheduled Solution Manager jobs.
For example, in case of RCA reports, the job named "EFWK Resource Manager" triggers BW data extraction.

Solution Manager/Charm and Transport Dependency Check

Hello Everyone,
I apologize if this question has an obvious answer. I have searched SDN and could not get a 100% answer.
We are just now in the process of rolling out Charm/Solution Manager and I have noticed that it appears to not perform transport dependency checks. For example, let's say I am working on object ABC and have completed my testing (ready for transport to production) and then another developer also starts development on object ABC. When my change is moved to production, it will pick up the other developers modifications without giving a warning or an error that a dependency has been encountered between the two transport requests.
Does Charm/Solution Manager offer the option of producing a warning should a transport depedency be identified? If so, will someone explain (or point me to the appropriate documentation) how this can be set up?
Best Regards,
Scott

Hi Scott,
ChaRM supports imports from DEV->QAS->PRD by transport by transport requests level not by transport request task level. So don't worry(i.e., You can't import only your change of object ABC to production. It allows to import your change and other user's change of object ABC together to production).
This is how it works(if more than an user works on the same object):
1. Requester creates a support message from satelitte system to report a problem.
2. Service desk employee creates a change document because some changes need to be done on object ABC to correct that reported problem.
3. Change Manager approves the change document. So a normal correction is created automatically.
4. This normal correction is assigned to 2 developers(your scenario) like for an example DVPR1 and DVPR2.
5. DVPR1 creates a transport request and does some changes on object ABC. So a transport task will be created for DVPR1 under that transport request automatically.
6. When DVPR2 tries to do some changes on the same object ABC, a seperate transport task(not a transport request) will be created for DVPR2 under the same transport request because the object ABC is locked under the transport request. So DVPR2 can't create a separate transport request for the same object if any transport request is pending(not released).
7. Now object ABC will have one transport request. That transport request will have 2 transport tasks(1 for DVPR1 and 1 for DVPR2).
8. Each developer relases their transport task only(not transport request) once he/she completes his/her change on the object ABC.
9. DVPR1 or DVPR2 will change the status of normal correction to "Development Completed".
10. Now, IT operator or DVPR1 or DVPR2 can release the transport request. The transport request can be released only if all tasks are released under the same transport request.
(In this example: DVPR1 completed his change and released his transport task. Next DVPR2 completed and released his transport task).
11. Finally IT operator import the transport request to QAS and PRD.
Hope you are clear now. Let me know if you have any doubts.
Regards,
Sanjai
