Fund Management - Issues in Upgrade from 4.6C to ECC6

Hello,
We are upgrading SAP Application for a client who is on 4.6C to ECC6. The client is currently using Funds Management in 4.6C. With ECC6 I understand that this functionality is moved into Public Sector and is available only on activation of IS-PS Extension Set.
The question I have is that does this activation impact any other business processes or is just a technical activation.
What I mean is that if I activate this extension set does the system start doing things differently and needs specific data related to Public Sector which the business users will be required to be entered while doing transactions OR the activation will not impact business processes as such and would work as earlier with Funds management active. (except where there was a change in the functionality between 4.6C to ECC6)
I would like to know the risks, if any involved in upgrading Funds Management from 4.6C to ECC6.
Please reply and let me know any question to get more clarity on the issue.
Best Regards
Kuldeep

Hi Kuldeep,
There are several main issues that have to be addresses when upgrading from 4.6 to ECC6. The main ones are:
1 - Derivations. The object are no longer connected through tables or master data entries (you may have a table that links Cost Centers to Funds Centers for example). These assignments are now maintained through a flexible derivation tool. These derivation rules have to be maintaind, or the posting addresses will have no FM values and you will not be able to post any documents.
2 - Inventory purchases. The inventory purchases scenarios are no longer maintained through the customization (you can no longer choose one of the 4 inventory scenarios, and there's no warehouse Funds Center). These are all maintained through derivations.
3 - BCS. There's a new budgeting and AVC tool called "Budget Control System" (BCS). You can either activate it, or keep working with the old budgeting (called "former" in the customization). The new BCS affords flexibility in budgeting and AVC, including several AVC ledgers.
More data regarding migrations can be found in documentation. If you want, I can send you the PDF document.

Abap issues when upgrading from 4.7 to ecc6.0

hello All,
I am posting this question with intention of general issues we face that are abap related when upgrade from 4.7 to ECC6.0,
do the programs ahve to be adjusted, if sumone cud also throw some light on what is unicode and wat role does it play in the upgrade,
some specific examples wud be appreciated
thanks,
RS

hi,
Go through this
Unicode is an international standard that assigns characters from virtually every
language and script a unique Unicode Scalar Value, which is a number written in
hexadecimal notation.
     Character     Unicode Scalar Value     Unicode Character Name
     A      U+0041          LATIN CAPITAL LETTER A
     Ä     U+00C4          LATIN CAPITAL LETTER A WITH DIAERESIS
     α     U+03B1          GREEK SMALL LATTER ALPHA
Implementing the Unicode standard enables a single software product or a single
web site to be accessed across multiple platforms, languages, and countries without
the need for re-engineering. It allows data to be transferred across many different
SAP and non-SAP systems without corruption. To meet these requirements, the SAP
Unicode team continues to promote Unicode-enabled SAP systems, aid their
installation, and provide tools and full technical support for the smooth
conversion of existing SAP non-Unicode systems to Unicode.

Report writer issue during upgrade from 4.6 to ecc6

Hi all,
On generating report of report writer through GR5G (we are regenerating because we were getting dump for this report after up gradation from 4.6c to ecc6)we found one syntax error. The error is in auto generated program we can see that error but cant fix it as it needs a key and maybe that might not also be the right method to resolve is as auto generated codes should not be touched . So what would I like to ask is how can error come in auto generated program and how do I fix it (error is in data declaration QUOTDATE_MAX(08) TYPE C VALUE '). Here u can see that instead of only is used there is no closing inverted comma.

Hi,
You need to make sure that all your delta queues are empty before the upgrade.
In case of logistics make sure all v3 jobs are stopped and extract queues are empty.
After the upgrade make sure that the source systems are mapped and working correctly. Check that your delta queues are conneted to the correct BW system.
You need to test all your extractors as they might have changed (check release notes). Test delta loads to make sure they are working properly.
Cheers,
Kedar

Performance issue after Upgrade from 4.7 to ECC 6.0 with a select query

Hi All,
There is a Performance issue after Upgrade from 4.7 to ECC 6.0 with a select query in a report painter.
This query is working fine when executed in 4.7 system where as it is running for more time in ECC6.0.
Select query is on the table COSP.
SELECT (FIELD_LIST)
        INTO CORRESPONDING FIELDS OF TABLE I_COSP PACKAGE SIZE 1000
        FROM COSP CLIENT SPECIFIED
        WHERE GJAHR IN SELR_GJAHR
          AND KSTAR IN SELR_KSTAR
          AND LEDNR EQ '00'
          AND OBJNR IN SELR_OBJNR
          AND PERBL IN SELR_PERBL
          AND VERSN IN SELR_VERSN
          AND WRTTP IN SELR_WRTTP
          AND MANDT IN MANDTTAB
        GROUP BY (GROUP_LIST).
   LOOP AT I_COSP      .
     COSP                           = I_COSP      .
     PERFORM PCOSP       USING I_COSP-_COUNTER.
     CLEAR: $RWTAB, COSP                          .
     CLEAR CCR1S                         .
   ENDLOOP.
ENDSELECT.
I have checked with the table indexes, they were same as in 4.7 system.
What can be the reson for the difference in execution time. How can this be reduced without adjusting the select query.
Thanks in advance for the responses.
Regards,
Dedeepya.

Hi,
ohhhhh....... lots of problems in select query......this is not the way you should write it.
Some generic comments:
1. never use SELECT
                   endselect.
   SELECT
into table
   for all entries in table
where.
   use perform statment after this selection.
2. Do not use into corresponding fields. use exact structure type.
3. use proper sequence of fields in the where condition so that it helps table go according to indexes.
    e.g in your case
          sequence should be
LEDNR
OBJNR
GJAHR
WRTTP
VERSN
KSTAR
HRKFT
VRGNG
VBUND
PARGB
BEKNZ
TWAER
PERBL
sequence should be same as defined in table.
Always keep select query as simple as possible and perform all other calculations etc. afterwords.
I hope it helps.
Regards,
Pranaya

Stability issues after upgrade from 5 to 6.1?

Dear all,
my client plans to upgrade from WLS 5 to 6.1 soon. The application is
an intranet portal with Epicentric and Vignette used as additional
products.
However, some voices say that 6.1 has stability issues. Well, these
statements are rumours and lack any proof or even anecdotal evidence I
have heard of, and therefore it is very difficult to respond
appropriately.
Having said this, my questions are:
- Did any of you have stability issues after upgrading from 5 to 6.1
on Solaris?
- If yes, what were they and how did you solve them (e.g. upgrade to
SP 5)?
- In 1-2 sentences, what is the context of the application?
My goal is to present a evidence that the romoured stability issues
don't exist or/and a list of meastures to avoid/solve them, if any.
Many thanks in advance
Andreas

Normally proving that rumors are true is a responcibility of
rumors suppliers. Reverse does sound to me like a joke.

P.S. Current weblogic 6.1 is a stable product.

SQ03, user group removed after release upgrade from 4.6C to ECC6

Dear All,
I have a problem about user group - transaction code SQ03.
After the release upgrade from 4.6C to ECC6 the user group, that I created in the old system, are not present in quality and production environment.
In the development environment there is the user group but doesn't contain the queries that I created in the old environment.
How can I solve this issue?
Can I recover all missing queries?
(moreover I can access to the old environment)
Thanks in advance.

PU19 PDF/SAPScript issue in upgrade between 4.7 to ECC6.0

We are upgrading from 4.7 to ECC6.0. ADS is setup for PDF format. When I run Tax reporter, in the log, I see W2 is getting generated under both PDF format and SAPScript format. Actually creates spool for W2 on both formats (Forms generated in PDF and also in SAPScript format). How do I stop the W2 statement NOT to create in SAPScript format. and Create only in PDF format. Any help please.
Thanks, Raj

Config view V_T5UX7 for tax form 'HR_F_W2' . Delimit alternate form HR_F_W2' (having Sapscript radio button selected) and any forms you no longer want Sapscript to create with an early end date (e.g. 12/31/2007).

Upgrade from 4.6C to ECC6.0 - development quality and production

Upgrade from 4.6C to ECC6.0
I have got three systems right now...
Development(D1) Quality(Q1) Production(P1).
These three systems need to be upgraded to ECC6.0
The recommended process is to copy D1 to a new temporary server(D2) and
then upgrade it. At the time of the copy we will have to run the transactions
SPDD and SPAU for which the one one transport requests will be created.
Now after the complete upgradation we will be running the UCCCHECK and SCUV.
The problem is after running this process we are going to copy the Quality(Q1)
to a new quality system Q2. Now the code in the D2 system is unicode complaint with all the
same functionalities as in D1.
How to get all the change and customizing objects which is updated in the D2 system
to the Q2 system (only the relevant ones - this will also ensure for PRD as the same process could be followed)?
Or else do we have to repeat the process for both the new quality(Q2) and new production(P2)
systems?
Useful answers will be rewarded accordingly....

Hi,
If you do SPDD and SPAU changes to create unique transports (as per upgrade guide) so the Q2 upgrade will have it embeded during the upgrade process then you should not have any problem because after the D2 combined upgrade (unicode and Technical Upgrade) the system will be in Unicode, UCCHECK is to check unicode compatibility as long as I know. You won´t need to use SPDD and SPAU again in Q2.
Also you could do Upgrade to D2, run UCCHECK and SCOV and then create all changes to objects that needs to be changed to create requests. Then do Q2 upgrade and when is finished then you move every transport you need from D2 to Q2 to do the necesary tests, it should not take much time. In the upgrades I know and done this is the way the changes were moved up to PRD, we have never used the unique transport request mentioned in the Guide. During Quality tests developers and funtional consultants will need to keep doing changes until everything is OK so even if you create unique requests, you will also have to transport after PRD upgrade.
Either way you won't need to run SPDD and SPAU after D2 upgrade.
Good luck

Invoice Receipt Warning Message Appear After Upgrade from 4.6C to ECC6

Hi Gurus,
We do upgrade from 4.6C to ECC6. And we do Invoice Verification base on Delivery (Vendor delivery number), in our business process there more than one Purchase Order has same Vendor Delivery Number while GR executed. But only one Purchase order related to Invoice verification, others PO are Free PO (no need Invoice Verification).
The problem is:
In SAP 4.6C, while execute Invoice base on Delivery (Vendor delivery), system automatic select only PO with Delivery (vendor) which related/allow invoice receipt.
In SAP ECC6, while execute Invoice base on Delivery (vendor delivery), all PO selected. So than there are warning messages appear (warning pop screen) for those PO not allow invoice Receipt (message M8035: PO item XXXXX does not allow invoice receipt), and at the end PO which allow Invoice receipt then appear for further Invoice Receipt process.
At overall, the final result SAP 4.6C and SAP ECC6 is same (only PO which allowed Invoice Receipt will processed further).
The Question are:
1. Why in ECC6 appear warning message, while in 4.6C no warning message ? Is there config to ignoring the warning message. I've try to maintain system message for M8035 (t-code: OMRM) to ignoring the pop screen, but can not created.
2. How do we make warning message dissapear (no need warning message), because if the PO's has hundred items so user need to click enter hundred times.
Thanks in advance.

Tri Wicaksono

Hi,
could you please check whether the flag "GR-based IV" is set in the purchase orders?
If GR based-IV is ticked, then this pop-up cannot be suppressed.
If you would like to post the invoice first then GR-based IV should not be checked, otherwise this pop-up will always appear. I am afraid that this behaviour is standard.
Please, be aware that this feature is only available if you set in the Purchase Order item the 'GR-based IV' indicator:
   If the GR-IV flag is not set in the PO, then the system does not
   differentiate individual goods receipts. Please see the <f1> help
   for the field "GR-IV" in the PO item detail. Since the individual
   receipts are not differentiated, an invoice is not tied per se to
   an individual receipt and a goods receipt can be reversed despite
   an invoice receipt.
With the GR-IV flag set on in a PO, you can specify which goods
   receipt is being invoiced in an IR and which goods receipt is being
   reversed in a return. It is this correlation between goods receipts
   and invoices that enables you to specify for GR-IV PO's whether an
   item can be returned despite an invoice.
Please refer to the note :457511 Question 10.
Best regards

BAdi & user-exits while upgrade from 4.6c to ECC6

Hello all,
Can anybody put light on how User-exits and BAdi will be effected while upgrade from lower version to ECC6.
Many Thnanks.....
Apps.

Hi,
The main concept of enhancements is to keep the code unaffected during version upgrades
Hence all the BADI implementations and User Exit/Customer exits implementations will be in place and no effect due to upgrade...I hope in case of badi, some new BADI(as part of enhancement framework-GET BADI/CALL BADI) will be added up and the old BADI(Those in 4.6c or below) will not get affected.

Shiva

ABAP Query in Upgradation from 4.7 to ECC6.0

Hi there,
We are upgrading SAP system from 4.7 to ECC6.0. We have s/w component SAP_BASIS = 700.
It would be of great help if anybody share their thought on handling ABAP queries after upgradation from 4.7 to ECC6.0.
We have refered SAP notes 132813 and 672784 where in we need to change the default query area.
Also, do we need to re-genarate the queries? If yes then how can we achive the same.
Thanks in advance.

Hi,
It may happen that some times, the queries are not generated after the upgrade.
Hence call the FM: RSAQ_GENERATE_PROGRAM
Pass the Query name and user group.
For all global queries: refer table AQGQCAT and local/client specific queries: Refer to AQLQCAT.
This can help to regenerate the queries.
You can also write a small program to generate using the above FM(one time program) that runs after upgrade
Hope this helps
Regards
Shiva
