Migrate all Open Sales Orders From Legacy System (SAP) To SAP System using

Hi Experts,
             I've to Migrate all Open Sales Orders From Legacy System (SAP) To SAP System using Business Objects with a new SALES ORDER DOCUMENT NUMBER referencing the older one.
           I'll get all the required data with field in an excel file.
             Does any standard transaction exist for it ? Or how to go ahead with it ?
Thanks and regards,
Jyoti Shankar

Hi
If you are checking for CREATE option then Sales Doc Type
For more Info goto SWO1 transaction -> BUS2032 --> DIsplay --> Execute --> There SELECT the method which you want to perform... There you can fine the MANDATORY parameters also....
Or in DISPLAY mode PLACE Cursor on the Required Method and CLick the PARAMETERS button on toolbar...
That will show the MANDATORY parameters...
Reward if helpful....

SSO to SAP via SAP Logon Group

Hi,
I've tried to configure SSO to SAP via SAP logon group. When trying this I'll get the following error:
Connect to message server failed Connect_PM MSHOST=<server>, R3NAME=IB1, GROUP=IB1_Web LOCATION CPIC (TCP/IP) on local host ERROR The message received isn't from a message server. Are you really connected to the message server? Please check your connection parameters. (<server> / sapmsIB1) TIME Tue Dec 16 16:48:49 2008 RELEASE 640 COMPONENT MS (message handling interface, multithreaded) VERSION 4 RC -2
I've also configured the file services under winnt\system32\drivers\etc on the BO server with the following line:
+sapmsIB1 443/tcp +
Is there anything I'll have to configure too? Or what does this error mean? The server which I have tried to reach is a message server.
Thanks in advice.
Claudia

HI Ingo,
yes I can connect with SAP GUI via message server and application server. I can also connect with BO via sso to the application server. Only the message server failed.
I have now found out that I had the wrong port. But also the right port doesn't work. I have tested the port with telnet. The port is reachable.
Thanks

Using ale u can send from sap to sap and sap to non sap systems

hi,
using ale u can send from sap to sap and sap to non sap systems,
then what is diff b/w ALE and EDI

Hello KALYAN KUMAR,
Application Link Enabling (ALE)
1.You distribute data using ALE if you want to communicate from one system to one or more other (mostly internal) systems.
2.ALE transfers data in IDoc format and uses the methods of tRFC for data transfer.
3.ALE enables the integration of business processes across several SAP or non-SAP systems.
Electronic Data Interchange (EDI)
1.You use EDI if you want to exchange business application documents with an (external) partner system (for example, a customer or vendor).
2. The SAP system sends EDI messages in IDoc format to an EDI subsystem, where they are converted to a universal EDI standard (UN/EDIFACT or ANSI/X12).
3. This enables communication with non-SAP systems.
By definition, two partners are involved in the process in an EDI application scenario: The sender and the recipient of an EDI message
I hope u understands the difference:)

SSO from non-SAP to SAP apps

Hi All,
Currently We have SAP applications, non-SAP applications(java, .NET, PHP etc) in our landscape.
If the client tries to access any non-SAP application it should ask for authentication and thereby for any subsequent access to any URL's(SAP or NON-SAP apps) it should not ask for any authentication.
FYI:
The client logins into SAP Portal(SAP to NON-SAP) first and thereby able to achieve SSO for non-SAP applications as well.
Currently we are stuck for the scanerio of Non-SAP to SAP apps ?
Please suggest.......
Thanks,
Mano.

Hi samuli,
Using SPNEGO, we can incorporate windows authentication for SAP Portal ( after desktop authentication user can logon without userid/password). But for non-sap apps this would be challenge.
I have another option, using webdispatcher if we enable server redirect for all applications(SAP & NON-SAP) and get authenticated centrally by which SSO can be achieved across all the apps.
Would above solution work ?
Thanks,
Mano.

hi jyothi ,
   there are lot of ways of doing it depending on data upload volume it will be decided .
1) thru abap bdc program which directly uses XL sheet data and creates SO using bapi/FMs.
2) using scat.functional consultant should be good enough to use this.
3)lsmw-laborious procedure but achievable.

How Can we get the data from Non-SAP to SAP in WebDynpro

Hi,
I hope u understand my query, How can we get the data from Non-SAP to SAP thru WebDynpro Programming.
Help out with the steps for getting the data or procedure.
Regards,
Mutyapu

You can expose the APIs in the Non-SAP backend as Web Services, and consume them in SAP by creating an Enterprise Proxy. Then these can be called just like normal class methods from Web Dynpro.

Idoc Scenario from SAP to SAP via PI 7.1o

Q: Two idocs will process from SAP to SAP via SAP-PI 7.1o and generated together.
Requirement :
Sync
2 IDOCs – as we explained our design will require two IDOCs. The first IDOC will be developed by a Z code and the second IDOC is generated by 100% Standard SAP BAPIs and 2 IDOCs send them to PI. Both IDOCs will be generated together by process code in sap and must be moved to PI and later to the receiver client together(SAP). The process can only be 100% completed when both IDOCs will be processed with success in the receiver side. Any one of the IDOC among 2 idoc's failed all the process should stop.
i think that is not possible , PI will not be able to stop successfull IDOC If another IDOC get fails .
Please give me approaches if any chance .
Thanks, Sanakr

Hi Bhavani,
You can use BPM with correlation to achieve this scenario:

Upgrade of Sourcesystem SAP EHP3 SAP ECC 6.0 to SAP EHP4 SAP ECC 6.0

Hi,
I noticed there is a lot of questions on the testing procedures for BI side when Upgrading the source system from R/3 to ECC 6.0. But noticed there aren't many posts on when doing Ehancement Packs. But I believe the process would be more or less the same?
My project is doing an Upgrade of SAP EHP3 SAP ECC 6.0 Stack03 to SAP EHP4 SAP ECC 6.0 Stack07. BI Side is also upgraded, but I am more interested in the impact of the Upgrade's Source System (ECC) on BI.
I believe the amount of impact is less as compared to an upgrade from R/3 to ECC, but there still should be impact to BI somehow.
Basically, from what I have researched, there correct procedure is as below:
Pre-Upgrade
1 - Lock users in ECC
2 - ensure that the Delta queue is cleared in RSA7
3 - check the PI in ECC6.0 ( What is PI???)
3 - stop all loads from BW
Post-upgrade
1 - Check Source System connections
2 - replicate all data sources in ECC (when I do a check connection in RSA1 I get the message "No metadata upload since upgrade" which I believe is due to this step not done yet? Is it ok to replicate all datasources??)
3 - activate all rules thru program (RS_TRANSTRU_ACTIVATE_ALL. Is it ok to activate all transfer strucs?)
4 - run Init w/o Data Transfer for deltas
5- run and then check extraction for full & delta loads
Appreciate if I could your expert inputs on the procedures above? Maybe a more detailed step by step procedure or comments are most welcomed.
Thanks.

Additional information:
I start the upgrade from SAP ECC 6.0 with a dual stack.
SAP advised me to download the following file to start the upgrade
SAPehpi_68-10005800.SAR from the SMP
Download path: Browse our Download Catalog--> Additional Components --> Upgrade tools --> SAP EHPI Installer --> SAP EHP Installer 7.00.
Start the upgrade without the jce_policy_zip extension. This was written in note 1302772 .
Have more luck with it.

*IDOC INBOUND ( NON SAP system - SAP system )*

I am transferring IDOC INBOUND ( NON SAP system ->> SAP system ) by calling SAP standard funtc module IDOC_INBOUND_SINGLE using SAP JCo.
In which I am passing all necessary information in Control Record regarding sender and receiver port/IDOC/segment etc.
BUT help me to clarify my doubt that if i am calling a function and i am able to access SAP FM, then why i have to specify the SAP port/RFC connection at RECEIVER end in WE21.
Whats the Significance if i am calling the FM from same SAP system and configuring the port explicitly in WE21.*
If i don't Specify in we02 i am getting error as EDI : RECEIVER PORT in CONTROL RECORD is INVALID

Dear Sree,
For Basic understanding of IDOC read : saptechnical - Step-by Step ALE IDOC guide ( all necessary TCodes available here )
Kindly let me know your data flow .
In short :
As per my scenario the data flow is from non SAP to SAP i,.e. Inbound processing.
At my non SAP i am calling SAP standard function IDOC_INBOUND_SINGLE using SAP Jco 2.1.
You have to fill all Control Structure EDI_DC40 ( port etc. ) and Table parameter EDI_DD40 ( segment etc. )
Read IDOC status and error in WE02.
Goodluck.

Use of SAP DMS & SAP Archive Link both together

Dear DMS Experts,
I am little bit new to DMS and have very less idea about functionalities and capabilities of SAP DMS & Archive Link.
I have got few questions:
1. Is it possible to use both SAP DMS & SAP Archive link togther.
For example, there are certain objects like GRN, Invoice, Employee etc which are not supported in standard DMS.
However, they are supported in archive link.
But at the same time, there is requirement of setting and resetting of some statuses of the documents attached with PM notification or with PR / PO. This functionality is available with SAP DMS.
So I want to know, is it possible to use SAP archive link for few objects and SAP DMS for other objects.
2. In case of SAP archive link configuration, we need to define link between Object Type, Document type and content repository
in node "Edit Links" under "Basic Customizing" under "ArchiveLink".
Here we can not use all the content repository which we have created normally. But we can use only limited content repository ID.
How does system decides, which content repository id can be used.? Where can i define that.?
3. With SAP archive link, can i store my documents in the same content repository in which I am storing my all the documents with SAP DMS. I mean to say, both the SAP DMS & Archive link, can share the same content repository.
We are having a seperate content server and requirement is to store all the documents in content server only.
Would request you all to please help.
Thanks & Regards,
Mihir Popat

..is it possible to use SAP archive link for few objects and SAP DMS for other objects...
Yes,you may use Archivelink for static documents that would be required purely for reference while DMS can be configured to handle documents that are more dynamic in nature (that require status change,version,revisions et-al)
..both the SAP DMS & Archive link, can share the same content repository.We are having a seperate content server and requirement is to store all the documents in content server only...
Yes,you may store DMS and Archivelink documents can reside on the same Content Server.Content repository is a logical area/partition,hence you may create one content repository for DMS and another for Archivelink(on the same Content Server).

XI in SAP to SAP environment

How well does XI fit into an SAP - SAP environment.
We are migrating data from 4.5B to ECC 6.0.
We can use ALE for the communication between these systems
But how can we justify the usage of XI.
Docs or links on this would also help me
-Naveen.

Hi,
In case of SAP to SAP environement where u have ALE/IDoc configuration which can do wonders the Q does arise how do we justify this?
1. In such scenario its more to do with landscape perspective.If the company has a policy that all the Interface will go through a middleware then u will have to use XI irrespective of SAP to SAP or SAP to non-SAP. this really helps in keeping track during maintenance phase
2. If there is a uniform error handling mechanism tht the company follows then its better to use the middleware.
3. if the landscape has more then one environment of SAP when the data goes from SAP to SAP and also to non-SAP then its justified to use it.
Just my thoughts.

Vijaya
