Guidence needed for SAP Carrer (IS Retail+SD)

Hi All,
I am planning to change my Career path from IT Analyst to SAP IS RETAIL Consultant. I am Currently working in retail company (UK Retailer) from last 4 years as IT Analyst involved in Mapping business requirements and Implementing new systems etc.
I don't have any experience in SAP, I am planning to join Certification course for SD+ISRETAIL and I Checked with one of SAP Authorized training Center and got overview of IS RETAIL.
Retail industry is booming accross the world (including India) i think there will be enough opportunities for SAP IS Retail Consultants(this is one of the reason for changing Career path) . I believe experience i have gained in retail domain from last four years will be useful in implementing SAP IS Retail to suit client requirements.
I would request your guidence and suggestion on this.
Regards
Natraj

Hi,
I feel you have made a genuine plan. As you have good industry knowledge you should be able to grasp the concepts easily. You experience in Retail industry can help you in your job search.
In india you can target cos like IBM, Accenture which have big SAP Teams.
I feel you should go for IS Retail certification, not sure why you wanna do SD.
Cheers
Barry

Hi
Yes, if you are planning to install new system(BW 7.3). No need for migration or use oracle DB.
BW 7.3 on HANA, where HANA will work as DB for your BW 7.3.
Hope you already have advantages of using BW on HANA.

Which ports are needed for SAP HANA Studio - HANA DB communication?

I want to connect SAP HANA Studio to a HANA instance. The HANA instance number is 40.
The SAP note 1592925 states that the ports 5$$13/5$$14 and 3$$15 should be open to allow communication between the HANA Studio and the HANA database. I even see the instance in the HANA Studio, but I cannot administrate it and the HANA studio gives this general "I don't want you to know what the error actually is" message:

Do I need to open any other ports to make HANA Studio work with HANA DB?
Regards,
Mark

Hi Mark,
The HANA Studio connects to HANA DB Instance with JDBC on port 3<Instance number>15.
For your HDB with Instance Number 40, the port would be 34015.
HANA Studio will automatically assign the JDBC port number when you assign the instance number when you add new system.
Looking at the error message that you posted:
!ENTRY com.sap.ndb.studio.navigator 4 1 2012-01-16 14:01:40.627
!MESSAGE [HDB hostname 40 (SYSTEM)] Error on refreshing system
It looks like the hostname entry was not entered correctly (you might have entered "hostname" value when adding the system in HANA Studio).
Here is an example of correct log entry on DCA database instance on hanasvr-01 server with Instance number 00:
!ENTRY com.sap.ndb.studio.navigator 4 1 2012-01-10 13:55:23.598
!MESSAGE [DCA hanasvr-01 00 (SYSTEM)]
You may want to delete and re-add your HDB instance in your HANA Studio.
Regards,
Ferry

Design Patterns needed for SAP XI

Hi

hi,
Here are the general step for designing for file to r/3 integration using IDOC,RFC
After doing this ull get good idea abt the sap xi designing
To Configure the FILE TO SAP R/3 OR SAP R/3 TO FILE, proceed as follows:
Step1:Repository
1      From the Integration Builder page, select Integration Repository. This will launch the Java Web Start Application. Log with the User id and password from the Integration Server.
2.      Choose Tools->Transfer from System Landscape Directory->Import Software Component Versions
      From the list of Software Component Versions, Choose your own software component version .Click Import.
3      On the left hand side frame ,software components will appear .Select your own software component. Open your own software component. Double click on this software component. A screen will appear .Switch to display mode. After doing this first add a namespace under Namespaces.
        The namespace should always begin with urn:
4.     Then choose the Radio Button ->Import of RFC AND IDOC interfaces from SAP systems permitted
     After this specify the connection parameters to the R/3 system:
     System : Name of sap R/3 system
     Client     : Sap R/3 client number
     These two fields are mandatory. You must Specify these fields.
     Then Save it. The new namespace will be visible under software component version node in the left frame.
     Under the namespace node, you will find the section Imported Objects. Right click on it and choose Import of sap objects. A wizard will display. In the wizard provide the following details.
Application server:IP address of sap r/3 system.
System number: Number of sap r/3.
User name: user name of sap r/3 .
Password: Password of sap r/3 system.
        Then click continue .You will find IDOC and RFC node. Click on this node and select the   Idoc or Rfc which is to be imported from R/3. Click Finish to start the Import. Close the wizard. After doing this the   Rfc and Idoc will be available into XI as Message types. So no need to create any Rfc or Idoc Structure. We need to create a structure for file only.
5.      Under your namespace in the left frame, expand the node Interface objects. You will find a node DATA TYPES
6       Create new data types.
        Right click on Data types and select New. Give a suitable name to Data Type(DT_datatype). In the data type Editor ,Create a structure having Elements of type String , integer, Boolean , Float etc as per the requirement.
        Save the object.
6.2     The Import function for XSD files enables you to upload message definitions from external sources. The object type External Definition is a container to make external definitions available in the Integration Repository.. While Importing the XSD files from External Definition
        no need to create Data types. They are imported directly as Message types.
        To do so, In the left hand frame Under Interface objects Create a new object of type External Definition and give name to it.
     Select the following.
Category: XSD.
Messages: From All Available Global Elements.
File: Here we need to specify the file name(file.xsd)
     Once the XSD is imported, click on Message tab , You should be able to see 2 messages(Request and Response)
7.      Create a new Message Type.
7.1      In the left hand frame under Interface objects, right click on the Message types and select new.
7.2      Give a suitable name to the Message type.(MT_ messagetype).
7.3      For the section Data type used you can go to input help (F4) or Search help provided and choose your data type (DT_datatype) from there.
         Save it.
8.         Create a Message interface from the left frame and name(MI_ messageinterface) it.The interface Should be Inbound or Outbound and mode should be Asynchronous .It should reference your Message type(Use F4 or Search help).
           Save it.
9.         Create a graphical mapping between the target document and the sender .
9.1        In the left hand frame ,expand Mapping objects. Right click on Message mapping and name it.You are now in a graphical editor.The Source message is on left, the Target message is on right.
9.2        As Source message select your own Idoc , Rfc or Message type.You can choose Search for Integration Object.As a reminder you can find your Idoc or Rfc under Software Component- >     Namespace->Imported Objects.
9.3      As Target Message you can choose your Message type or Idoc, Rfc .Choose Search for Integration Object.
9.4      Now that we have defined the Source and Target message, we can start defining the Mapping rules.
9.5      Map the fields of Source document to the equivalent fields in Target document .This can be achieved easily by locating the field in Target document and then Drag and Drop the   Source fields to the respective Target Fields.
     Save It.
     You can also Test your Mapping by selecting the Test Tab.
9.6     Fill in the values in the Idoc fields and click Start Transformation. On the right hand side you will see Target Document populated with the appropriate Values.
10.      Create an Interface Mapping.
     In the left hand Frame expand Mapping objects. Right Click on Interface Mapping and Name it. You are in a Interface Mapping Editor .Assign the following References.
Source interface : Your Outbound Interface (Idoc from the Software component Version).You can Choose Search for Integration Object.
Target interface:    Your Inbound Interface( The Target document interface).
     Then Select Read Interface and Assign your Mapping Program .
Mapping Program: Your Message mapping.
     Then Save it.
11.      Finally , in the left hand frame ,go to your change list and Activate it.

Authorization needed for SAP BP Business Warehousing - V3.70

Hello,

Thanks in advance!!
Kind regards, Ton

Hi all,
Iam really waiting for someone to see and get the logic right for this code.Iam completely stuck up. i need ur help

Guidence needed for Custom Trigger

I have an ADDT Dynamic List and Form. (I love these things!) When I add/edit/delete a record using the form, I would like to update another (unrelated) database table and would like to know if that is possible using a Custom Trigger. I have read Ch. 16 of the ADDT Help manual and am a bit lost with the jargon as I am not a power-php person.
Here is what I need to do: Select from a different table a record by a value in a field and update another field in it. Then return to the Dynamic List page.
The other solution which is an easy cop-out is once the transactions have been completed on the Form page, go to an intermediate PHP script that carries out the Select and Update process then return to the Dynamic List page.
Any suggestions/comments welcome. Thanks.

Hi Albert. Thanks for pointing out yet another hidden gem in ADDT.
The help for this SB is a little vague.
As a result I have no idea on how this will help.
Here is the situation in a bit more detail.
Lets say the Dynamic Form is used to enter News items. These are kept in a table for News Items. These Items are presented on a News page in the site. This page gets its content from the Pages table as well as the News table.
There is no relationship between the two tables. However, the Pages table includes a field called updated which contains the date the "page" was last updated. Each News item also has an Updated field, but when the news item is updated I also want to update the updated field for the News Page.
My first thought was to add a custom trigger to the News Items Form page that could grab the News Page record from the Pages table and update its updated field.
So the Pages Table looks like this:
Table name:pages_pag
Columns:
id_pag - the primary key
idpag_pag - the self foreign key
menulabel_pag - the menu label
template_pag - the template file used to display the page.
pageheading_pag - the page heading
content_pag - the page content
updated_pag - the date created/updated
etc etc......
The News Table looks like this:
Table name: news_nws
Columns:
id_nws
heading_nws
summary_nws
details_nws
updated_nws
etc...
Hope this explains what I am trying to achieve.

Question : Post MBA , I want to get back in SAP field with more functional/technical roles , however I am confused with Module selection. For functional ones, I don't have any background . Few of my friends suggested to learn SAP Solution Manager , however I am confused with it's scope. Please advice the module which will be better to take ahead as per my profile.

Honestly there is no answer for that until you do it. A mov will work perfectly fine. But there are variables: The quality and sharpness of the original photos. How they survive being compressed to a mov, how that mov survives being compressed to DVD format. The quality of the DVD player (and no, they are not all the same) and finally the crispness of the screen. If all goes well, yes it will look perfectly good. But you're not going to know until you do it.
