GDS without ECC at backend

Hi GDS experts,
1. We are planning to implement SAP GDS solution but without ECC at backend. Is it possible to do that?
2. Do you have the import and export XSD structures that we can use to import and syndicate data to and from GDS repository?
Regards,
-T

Hi TechX,
1. You can implement GDS without ECC as the backend. The Solution could be to make use of GDS UI to manually enter data into the fields of various tabs which you wish to.
2. While implementing GDS try to make use of GDS UI to make data entry or to create link between two levels in hierarchy. Making use of Import manager may lead to inconsistencies as you need to update data into various tables like Main Table(TMData), Lookup Table (Global Data, Partner Specific Data) etc. So you have to be very sure that appropriate entries will be made in all the affected tables which can be achieved easily by making use of GDS UI.
Thanks and Regards,

EWM without ECC

A customer has a requirement for a standalone inventory management/warehouse management system. Is it possible to implement SCM's EWM without ECC or any other backend system? We would need full inventory mangement including goods receipts, goods movements, warehouse, storage, bins, and physical inventory.
I did look at the Master Guide, but it seems to contradict in various areas and I am looking for confirmation.
Thanks,
Mark

i will differ a little on the previous response.
you could in THEORY you could linkEWM to a NON ERP instance, HOWEVER you would need to replicate the inbound and outbound processing for RFC processing with custom ABAP code.
Remember all the integration function modules are configured so you could in theory create Z-functions which are RFC to communicate to another system (non SAP)
remember also you would need to get business partners in wich is via a CIF which in theory can be redeveloped via Z custom.
But you could manually
ALSO remember that EWM can be linked via IDOC's which mean in theory you can link it to ANOTHER NON SAP system and route the messages to another system maybe using XI. This might be easier than the above option.
Hope this help and dont underestimat the task.
There is also AT the BOTTOM of the EWM help a area with business connectors which might help.
Hope this helps
kind regards

Can you use ECC memory in a motherboard without ECC support

I am trying to help a friend from long distance and have limited knowledge about his system. The motherboard is a 845GLMS/GVMS series MS-6754 (v1.X) Micro ATX Mainboard. He is wanting to upgrade the RAM and the manual says:
Main Memory
Support four memory banks using two 168-pin unbuffered SDDRM DIMMs.
Max memory size is 2GB without ECC (1GB/slot).
Most everything I'm finding (at least with a low price) is ECC. Will ECC memory (obviously without the ECC working) function on that motherboard?

He needs to use non-ECC RAM, ECC is for server MB's. Where are you looking for RAM and what size & speed does he need, PC100 or PC133? What prices are you finding?

Vendor replication from SUS to ECC 6 backend in SRM 7.01

Dear Gurus,
1. Vendor registration in ROS: Vendor's are registered in ROS and stay there as preapproved vendors. They can be replicated to SRM system through OPI calls. How these suppliers are replicated to backend MM system?
2. I get to know that from SRM 7 enhpk 1 facilitates transfer of vendor data from SRM SUS to SAP ERP. A business partner monitor cockpit is available in SUS/ROS. Do we need to upgrade our ECC system to ECC 6.0 enhpk 5 or ECC 6.0 enhpk 4 will do to avail these functionality?
Any input on these will be highly appreciated.
Thanks and regards,
Ranjan

Hi Ranjan,
As of now without Ehp1, vendors are replicated to backend MM systems using a PI scenario "Supply_base_management".
And you are right, from Ehp1 vendor replication will be handled as you mentioned and ECC Ehp4 will support that.

ABAP Engine without ECC

Hi people,
I´ve been searching notes about the option of install the ABAP engine only, without the ECC 6.0.
It´s possible?
More thanks

Hi Ruben,
Theres not such thing as an "ABAP engine only". ECC stands for ERP Core Component and in its simplest form consist of a ABAP system with no add-ons.
I wonder what do you have in mind

Replicated vendors without link to backend

Hi,
We have an extended classic scenario (SRM 5.5). We replicate vendor with BBPGETVD (and BBPUPDVD) and then we use BBP_UPDATE_PORG to replicated these vendor to the local purch org.
However, any vendors have their link to the backend in the bbpmainint. Is that ok?
Many thanks!!
Regards
Patricia

seems there is a misinterpretation.
What I was telling that if you are using backend ECC vendors
you should have backend ECC PORG assigned to the SRM BP of that vendor in BBPMAININT
but the entry will be by default there when you replicate ECC vendor via BBPGETVD.
hope it is clear now

Need a Business Package for Vendor Portal with ECC as backend ?

Hello,
We are looking for a portal business package which can talk to backend ECC system and has the functionality to create/change/display POu2019s, Invoices, Inventory and reporting functionality. All this functionality needs to be available to Vendors via an External Facing Netweaver Portal.
I have gone through the list of BPu2019s available at https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/sdn/contentportfolio and found some BPu2019s available for Buyers which has the above required functionality, however it has exposed ECC transactions directly via Transaction iViews which we cannot expose to Vendors.
Also there is one Business Package called Supplier Collaboration which delivers the required functionality, but unfortunately we do not have SRM/SUS components in the project.
Please let me know if you know business package to implement or if not best practices to achieve the functionality.
Thanks in advance.
Best Regards,
Seshu.

How to integrate ECC as backend server for CRM Server

Hi Experts,
My requirement is I have two servers one is ECC and another one is CRM , Now I need CRM Backed server as ECC, I.e
when ever a sales order created in CRM ,it's need to be replica in ECC also , how can it possible , how can configurable settings between these two systems , if there is any documents to achieve this , Please suggest me
Regards
Siva

Hi Sadasiva,
1). Create an RFC between CRM and ECC and vice versa
2). Partner profiles in WE20 and Port configuration in WE21
3). You can transfer either in the form of Idocs or your functional configuration has to do below mentioned steps
To replicate a sales order from CRM to ECC you should have following prerequisties.
1. Master Data: Customer, material should exist in both the system
2.Organization Structure like Sales Org, Division, Distribution Channel (Sales Area) should exist in both the system
3.Same Document Type,Item Category, Item Category Determination should exist in both the system
4.Same Number Range should exist in both the system
refer to below link also
Transfer of sales order header custom fields from ECC to CRM

Is PPDS PDS possible without ECC ie using LSMW BAPI or similar?

We are trying to get an APO SNP/PPDS model working for planning in divisions before hooking up fully to ECC, and have got SNP PDS uploads working fine for SNP using BAPI (BUS10014 Production Data Structure) which we trigger within an LSMW.
But trying to create PPDS PDS instead (so we can use some block planning functionality) and I have not got to work yet. Almost works, ie data goes into most of the background table, but PPDS PDS cannot be seen in display transaction, and cant use it.
Wondering if anyone else has got to work? And if it is even POSSIBLE? ie maybe PPDS is only designed to work with ECC wheras SNP can work stanalone or with non-SAP system?

Hello all,
It is possible that you have syntax error for development objects that are assigned to a package (Dev class) that is 'switchable' and that its switch is off.
In general, these development objects are meant to be used when specific 'business functions' are switched on.
Switching on a business function has to be analyzed and tested carefully because most of them CANNOT be switched off. Even Reversible business functions cannot be switched off when they are activated in a productive system. This is forbidden.
In this specific example, program SAPLBOS04 belongs to package AD_BOS_01. This package contains switchable objects related to switch ECO_BOS. This switch can be switched on via more than one 'industry-specific' business functions all belonging to DIMP.
Switching on DIMP has to be analyzed thoroughly because some business functions are getting automatically switched on (Bfunc DIMP_SDUD) and cannot be reverted.
Each business function activates different functionality. Documentation can be found in IMG -> Activate Business Functions (TA SFW5). There you have a Documentation column with a link to the Help Portal.
Using TA SFW_BROWSER you can see the different objects related to business functions displayed in a tree.
Before switching on business functions you have to take precautions. See http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw70ehp1/helpdata/en/de/899442047b0831e10000000a1550b0/content.htm

Billing in CRM standalone

Hello everyone,
Can anyone answer my query as we dont have ECC or any other backend as the customer is only service customer,in which can billing be done in CRM standalone without ECC as backend. pls let me know the process on how to do it or is there any other way to do it.
Regards,
Shiva Puneeth.

Couple of things to Clarify here.. There is no such thing as Financial postings in CRM. If you are referring to Billing..CRM can support creation of Debit Memos only and nothing beyond that. So DMs will become your billing document and any other subsequent Accounting entries are dependent on external system like ECC.
As the other person said, you need to configure the whole 9 yard on Billing in CRM using CRM BEA
Thanks

Are one time vendors supported in SRM ( replicated from ECC backend to SRM)

Dear All,
I have noticed in various past posts that one-time vendors are not supported in SRM.
Is this still the case fo SRM 5.0 and ECC 6 backend set?
Why is it that one time vendors cannot be replicated to SRM?
If we create a one time venor manually in SRM, can we use this vendor in shopping carts/POs?
Thanks

Hi
As far as I know, Yes correct.. one time vendors are not supported in SRM.
It's functionality of R/3 and ECC Backend systems only.
Contract vendors / Purchase Info-records related vendors are still supported in SRM.
Hope this will help.

SMP3.0 Kapsel Hybrid App without SAP backend

Hi experts,
we want to develope a hybrid app using SMP3.0 and Kapsel. SMP should mainly be used to deploy the app to Android and iOS, no SAP backend is needed.
Therefore we have the following questions:
How to deploy an app to SMP
How to register/send app to devices
Is it even possible to work with SMP3.0 without using SAP backend at all?
We were searching a lot for this but all tutorial and how to's were incomplete or didn't illustrate everything we need to know.
We hope that you can clarify this.
Best regards!

I don't know what is your understanding on Kapsel.
SMP 3 lets you develop Hybrid and native app using Odata as interface. The hybrid apps are based on cordova. Cordova helps you do develop apps for different mobile OS using web technologies. Cordova is an open source project that has a lot of plugins in the market. Based on our requirement we can add these plugins in our project. Kapsel is a set of plugins developed by SAP that satisfies enterprise mobile app requirements, ex. encryption of data, push notifications, automatic app update etc. The final product of the project is an install able file for mobile OS, ex. apk for android and ipa for IOS. These files has to be deployed to devices manually to devices. To assign apps to device remotely without intervention of users you have to use a MDM.

Code To Update the Table in ECC from Webdynpro

Hi All,
I want to know, the table is dispalyed in the webdynpro browser when we calls the Adaptive RFC Model.
after i want to add one more row in the webdynpro and just clicking on add button the row will be updated in the ECC server(backend) for that how can i write the coding, regarding this issue can you please help me.
ThanX All,

Hi Sriram,
          Assuming you have a table filled with records by adding one by one, If you want to update a table in SAP ECC, follow these steps..   i think already you are triggering the action for the button in view(for table updation) to method in controller or created a custom controller and mapped the model node.
1. Initialize the main model node and bind the model node with the intialised object like
     Zbapi_MainModelNode_Input input = new Zbapi_MainModelNode_Input();
                       wdContext.nodeZbapi_MainModelNode_Input ().bind(input);
2. Now loop the table node and set the values with corresponding class in the generated model (from webdynpro explorer) and initialize like
        IPrivateControllerName.ITableElement myTab = null;
       for ( int i = 0; i < wdContext.nodeTable().size();i++)
                     myTab = this.wdContext.nodeTable().getTableElementAt(i);
     Bapi_structname name = new Bapi_structname();
                    name.setFieldName1(myTab.getFieldName1);
                    name.setFieldName2(myTab.getFieldName2);
                    input.addT_Bapi_(name);
Finally execute the BAPI..
   wdContext.currentZbapi_MainModelNode_Input tElement().modelObject().execute();
Hope this solves your issue - Update the Table in ECC from Webdynpro.

Compatible versions with ECC 6.0

Hi,
We are planning the upgrade of our SAP installations:
- R3 4.6C, 4.7 --> ECC 6.0
- BW 3.1, 3.5 --> BI 7.0 (NW2004s)
- SRM 2.0 --> SRM 5.0
- CRM 4.0 --> CRM 5.0
Of course we can't do all the upgrades at the same time, so, in order to decide in which order we make the upgrades, we must be sure that the new versions will be compatible with the old ones.
In the quicklink "service.sap.com/r3-plug-in", menu option "SAP R/3 plugin --> Integration of SAP R/3 / Enterprise, ERP and SAP Components" there are some tables where we can analyze the compatibility between all the BW, SRM and CRM versions and R3 versions prior to ECC 6.0 (4.6C, 4.7, ECC 5.0), according to the plug-in version. From 2005 there seems to be a strategy change in the integration interfaces:
"SAP ECC 6.0 and subsequent releases will automatically contain all integration interfaces that so far have been contained in the SAP R/3 Plug-In and that ensured the technical integration with other SAP Components."
As I understand, ECC 6.0 will automatically contain all the integration interfaces and there will be no more R/3 Plug-In versions. How can I check the compatibility between ECC 6.0 and the other BW, SRM and CRM versions? In the quicklink there are integration matrix available for R3 Enterprise and ECC 5.0 but there is no information for ECC 6.0. Are the versions compatible with ECC 5.0 too compatible with ECC 6.0? As ECC 6.0 seems to "automatically contain all integration interfaces that so far have been contained in the SAP R/3 Plug-In", does it mean that the integration matrix available for ECC 5.0 is too valid for ECC 6.0?
We have found a specific note (931020 "SRM connection to an ERP 2005 (ECC 600) backend") for the integration between ECC 6.0 and SRM but we didn't find any note regarding BW or CRM.
How can we check wich versions (BW, SRM, CRM) are compatible with ECC 6.0? Can we use the integration matrix available for ECC 5.0 in the quicklink "service.sap.com/r3-plug-in", are there specific notes like the one available form SRM (931020)?
We need to be sure as soon as possible that after the upgrade of our R3 4.6C and 4.7 versions to ECC 6.0 they will be compatible with our actual BW (3.1, 3.5), SRM (2.0) and CRM (4.0) versions.
Thanks in advance!!

to followed unicode rules.
ABAP Development under Unicode
Prior to Unicode the length of a character was exactly one byte, allowing implicit typecasts or memory-layout oriented programming. With Unicode this situation has changed: One character is no longer one byte, so that additional specifications have to be added to define the unit of measure for implicit or explicit references to (the length of) characters.
Character-like data in ABAP are always represented with the UTF-16 - standard (also used in Java or other development tools like Microsoft's Visual Basic); but this format is not related to the encoding of the underlying database.
A Unicode-enabled ABAP program (UP) is a program in which all Unicode checks are effective. Such a program returns the same results in a non-Unicode system (NUS) as in a Unicode system (US). In order to perform the relevant syntax checks, you must activate the Unicode flag in the screens of the program and class attributes.
In a US, you can only execute programs for which the Unicode flag is set. In future, the Unicode flag must be set for all SAP programs to enable them to run on a US. If the Unicode flag is set for a program, the syntax is checked and the program executed according to the rules described in this document, regardless of whether the system is a US or a NUS. From now on, the Unicode flag must be set for all new programs and classes that are created.
If the Unicode flag is not set, a program can only be executed in an NUS. The syntactical and semantic changes described below do not apply to such programs. However, you can use all language extensions that have been introduced in the process of the conversion to Unicode.
As a result of the modifications and restrictions associated with the Unicode flag, programs are executed in both Unicode and non-Unicode systems with the same semantics to a large degree. In rare cases, however, differences may occur. Programs that are designed to run on both systems therefore need to be tested on both platforms.
Other Changes
1.     Bit Statements
2.     Adding Field Sequences
3.     Loops with VARY and VARYING
4.     Creating Subroutines
5.     Saving Programs
6.     Assigning Types for GET/SET PARAMETER
7.     Unreachable Statements
8.     Function Modules with Incorrect Parameter Names
1. Bit Statements
Previously, the system checked for the bit statements SET BIT i OF f [TO g] and GET BIT i OF f [INTO g]whether the field f is character-type; X fields, X strings, and flat structures are usually regarded as character-type. For Unicode programs this is no longer useful, because the types X and XSTRING no longer count as character-type and the bit by bit access to character-type fields or structures is no longer platform-independent. Therefore, with these operations in Unicode programs, the field f must be type X or XSTRING.
For the bit mask operations f O x, f Z x, and f M x you could previously use all number-type and hence all character-type types for the left operand f. In Unicode programs, the f operand must now be type X or XSTRING.
2. Adding Field Sequences
When adding field sequences, restrictions apply to the following statements in Unicode:
ADD n1 THEN n2 UNTIL nz [ ACCORDING TO sel ] GIVING m ...
ADD n1 THEN n2 UNTIL nz TO m [ RANGE str ].
1.     The operands n1, n2, and nz must be type-compatible with one another.
2.     The distance between nz and n1 must be an integral multiple of the distance between n2 and n1.
3.     A syntax or runtime error occurs if the fields n1, n2, and nz are not in a structure. This structure must be recognizable statically or its valid area must be marked explicitly using the RANGE addition.
4.     At runtime, the system ensures that the RANGE area is not left.
ADD n1 FROM i1 GIVING m [ RANGE str ].
1.     Field n1 must be within the structure. The structure must be explicitly defined using the RANGE addition if it is not recognizable statically.
2.     For this variant, the system also checks at runtime whether n1 and the addressed values are within the structure.
3. Loops
Loops with the VARY or VARYING addition are also problematic in Unicode, since a type-a access to memory contents cannot be ensured and memory can be overwritten inadvertently.
DO ... VARYING f FROM f1 NEXT f2.
For this statement, the fields f, f1, and f2 must be type-compatible with each other. To prevent memory contents being overwritten, a RANGE for valid accesses is introduced implicitly or explicitly for the following statements:
DO ... TIMES VARYING f FROM f1 NEXT f2 [ RANGE f3 ].
WHILE ... VARY f FROM f1 NEXT f2       [ RANGE f3 ].
A syntax or runtime error is caused if f1 or f2 are not included in f3. If the RANGE addition is missing, it is defined implicitly from FROM f1 NEXT f2 as follows:
1.     If both f1 and f2 are statically recognizable components of the same structure, the valid RANGE area is defined from the smallest structure that comprises f1 and f2.
2.     A syntax error is triggered if it is recognizable statically that f1 and f2 are not part of the same structure.
3.     A valid area must be defined explicitly using the RANGE addition if the connection between f1 and f2 is not recognizable statically.
If you specify a deep structure as the RANGE addition, the system checks for every loop pass that there are no field references, object references, tables, or strings in the area read.
4. Creating Subroutines
When automatically generating subroutines using the statement GENERATE SUBROUTINE POOL itab NAME name, the generated program inherits the content of the Unicode flag of the generating program.
5. Saving Programs
When automatically generating programs using the statement INSERT REPORT prog FROM itab, default values are set for the TRDIR entry as before. Amongst other things, this statement has the new addition UNICODE ENABLING uc, with which the Unicode flag of the inserted report receives the value of uc. If this addition is missing, the following applies:
1.     A Unicode program creates a Unicode program.
2.     A non-Unicode program in turn creates a non-Unicode program.
3.     A non-Unicode program becomes a Unicode program if it is overwritten by a Unicode program.
4.     A Unicode program remains a Unicode program if it is overwritten by a non-Unicode program.
6. Assigning Types for GET/SET PARAMETER
For the statements GET PARAMETER ID pid FIELD f and GET PARAMETER ID pid FIELD f, f must be character-type. You can use the EXPORT and IMPORT statements for storing non-character-type fields and structures.
7. Unreachable Statements
In Unicode programs, unreachable statements cause a syntax error. In non-Unicode programs, there was previously only a syntax warning.
8. Function Modules with Incorrect Parameter Names
In Unicode programs, calling a function module, whose parameter names are specified statically as a literal or constant, causes an exception that can be handled if an incorrect parameter name was specified. This only applies to function modules that are not called via Remote Function Call. In non-Unicode programs, an incorrect name was previously ignored.
