IBM and SAP Performance measures - SAPS/MSU

Hi
we have to install a PI System - Appl-Server on Windows 2003-64 and the
database on DB2/zOS 8.1.
Our PI-consultant told us that the system will need approximately 1000 SAPS
on the db-server initially.
Can anybody tell me how many IBM-MSU/IBM-MIPS these 1000 SAPS are?
We have a z9-109 (2095-701) mainframe.
Thanks in advance!
Best Regards,
Georg

Georg,
You should contact your local IBM account team. They have the contacts to the IBM sizing folks in order to provide the correct information.
You can find some details regarding the workload and sizing at http://www.ibm.com/servers/eserver/zseries/lspr/pdf/SC28118711.pdf but as you can see from the description none of these workloads is an SAP workload. As a result the SAPS/'MIPS" ratio varies considerably.
Also, the calculation is dependent on the family (z9, z900, ..).
Regrads,
Thomas

How to Set Up SSO Between IBM WebSphere and SAP EP Using JAAS

Hi
I have read the article on SDN called "How to Set Up SSO Between IBM WebSphere and SAP EP Using JAAS", which is also the name of my posting.
The reason why I post this is that I've tried to follow the links in the PDF to get the file WebsphereEpSsoLib.zip but I get an error 403, which tells me that the file is not there.
Does anybody know where this file went or can somebody tell me an alternative place to get this file?

IBM's and SAP's

Hi Experts,
So, IBM is having their own specification for SOA and SAP is also having its own specification for SOA. What is the main difference between IBM's and SAP's specifications and their implementations side. IBM has its own stack for SOA is SAP has its own stack for SOA?

IBM Rational and SAP NetWeaver

I've just posted a blog about integrating the IBM Rational software tools with the SAP NetWeaver Application Server:
/people/kaloyan.raev/blog/2010/06/08/ibm-rational-and-sap-netweaver

Dear Experts!!!!
While searching and exploring SDN to solve above mentioned error "NoClassDefFoundError: com.sun.net.ssl.internal.ssl.Provider " found out in some posts to check for classpath. So, we have set the environment variable classpath with jsse.jar file location. After that when we tried, we are getting the same error.
Can anyone please suggest where to check or set the classpath for jar files to overcome the above issue.

What are strengths and weaknesses of the sap.m.Shell and sap.m.App as container for an application wrapper?

My question today: What are strengths and weaknesses of the
sap.m.Shell
and
sap.m.App
as container for an application wrapper?
I currently use non of them, but I see the advantages.
SAP best practise is to use one of them or nest them as shell > app. What are strengths and weaknesses of the approaches?

We prefer to say, the tender mercies of the Fetch block.
You'll notice the "wfm info" cluster as an output of the Fetch
VI. This cluster has gain and offset members- use these to scale
your binary data to floating point voltage representation.
As you point out, the numbers won't be exactly what you expect given
the vertical range and the device resolution. There are a few
reasons for this. First, we don't use the absolute full scale of
the ADC for the maximum input voltage. There are a couple of
codes of headroom at the top and bottom. This allows your input
signal to slightly exceed the specified vertical range without clipping
(you'll get a warning from the driver). Second, these gain and
offset numbers take into account calibration information for your
device. Using these numbers will correct for small deviations
from the ideal offset and gain.
So if you use the gain and offset numbers from the driver, your
measurements will be more accurate than if you assume 0 offset and
perfect gain. They will be most accurate if you make sure to
perform a self-calibration once the device is in your system and at the
temperature that your tests will be run.

How to measure query run time and mnitor performance

Hai All,
A simple question. How to measure query run time and mnitor performance? I want to see the parameters like how long it took to execute, how much space it took etc.
Thank you.

hi,
some ways
1. use transaction st03, expert mode.
2. tables rsddstat*
3. install bw statistics (technical content)

Client concept for SAP SCM APO and SAP TM

Hello,
We are installing SAP SCM APO 5.1 (SNP, gATP, DP) and SAP TM 7.0 (ramp up). Both connect via CIF to ECC 6.0 SP3. As far as my knowledge goes for CIF, both master data and transactional data is exchanged via CIF.
In ECC we have a three client concept:
100 customizing only
200 customizing + master data (golden client)
300 customizing + master data + transaction data
Can we use a similar model for TM and SCM APO as well? Should we then only connect ECC-300 to TM-300 and ECC300 to SCM-300 via CIF?
I have also heard that also some ECC customizing is transferred via CIF to SCM/TM. Is that true and does that change this model?
Regards,
Rob Veenman
SAP Basis.

Rob,
As a general rule of thumb, for each ECC client you will probably want an SCM client. From your landscape description, it is not clear to me in which clients you perform the everyday functions of development/test/production, but I guess you have already worked that out. Without knowing exactly how you manage your environment, I will say that it is probably a good idea to have active CIF connections between each of the three pairs of clients. Once you have set up a single connection between your first pair (ECC/SCM), you will find that setting up the second and third is pretty trivial.
Yes, quite a bit of ATP configuration can be CIFd across. Typically, you do this one time, and then lock the transfer of config out (there is a config setting in SCM to stop further transfer of config). From that point forward, any config that must be parallelled in both systems is usually done manually in both systems. Notable exceptions are Factory Calendars, units of measure, and Fiscal Periods, which can be pulled across from ECC to SCM any time you want via standard program.

DIFFERENCE BETWEEN TALLY ERP AND SAP BUSINESS ONE

Hello Experts,
From where i can find the comparison between TAlly ERP and SAP business one ?

Tally 9.0
Accounting
. To fulfill legal requirements - records as per standards and practices
. To pay taxes to various bodies - statutory needs
. Keep the business running - manage receivables & payables, cash, bank...
. Keep a watch on the pulse of the organisation - key performance indicators
. Respond to queries - to locate the right transaction immediately
. With the entry of a voucher (this is what we call all accounting transactions) all books of accounts, all reports, all totals & sub-totals are updated instantly. There is nothing more that needs to be done - whether you are inserting a forgotten entry, or correcting one.
. Taxation requirements of all the states of India are available, in the prescribed formats.
. Supporting tasks like reminder letters, delayed interest, ageing, bank reconciliation.
. One single dashboard to look at all important business ratios.
. Drill down from any report, even the Balance Sheet, right to any voucher or filter and search.
. Data entry in the language of the users choice - and report in any other language (from the languages supported).
. Mark vouchers that are draft as 'optional' and convert these to final- with one button click
Financial Management & Controls
Tally.ERP 9 comes with rich features & financial reports that give you the necessary management and control of your business. A few of these are listed below:
u2022 Funds Flow & Cash Flow reports - help you locate bottlenecks
u2022 Bank reconciliation - keeps your bank books in sync, and identify unclear instruments
u2022 Customer Credit Limits - to limit risk of default and large losses
u2022 Budgets - keep tabs on projected expenses against actuals
u2022 Mark vouchers post dated - these will reflect into the books of accounts only on/after that date
u2022 For needs where reports have to consider a transaction that has not happened (say salaries for this month that get paid the next month) vouchers (called 'reversing journals') can be marked to 'disappear' for reports post a specific date
u2022 "Scenario" management - helps you with your business forecasting and planning. You can use optional, reversing journals and memorandum vouchers, to aid in recording provisional entries that are useful for interim reports
u2022 Multiple inventory valuation. You can decide one valuation method for the business, and be able generate financial reports using any other valuation method - as the  statutory method may not be appropriate for your needs, your bankers and for other decisions
u2022 Cash balances can go negative - you can get warned if this is about to happen, or see reports and make the necessary corrections
u2022 Several business exceptions are available (negative stocks, negative ledgers) - for
you to exercise control over these activities
u2022 A one-screen business ratios with drill down right up to the transactions - help you to correct course frequently u2022 Item wise & document wise profitability statements to control revenue leakage and inappropriate pricing
u2022 Internal audits are supported with audit controls - authorised users can mark vouchers as 'audited' and can get to see reports on changes made post audit, and the name of the person making the change
Inventory Accounting & Management
If you deal in goods, of any type, you'll appreciate the Inventory capabilities in Tally.ERP 9.
You can comprehensively record all types of inventory transactions, using goods receipt notes, delivery notes, stock journals, manufacturing journals and physical stock journals. All stock movements are fully recorded and maintained in stock registers.
Developed for all manufacturers, distributors, wholesalers or traders a small list of features are briefly described below:
Manufacturers:
. Bill of materials and Manufacturing Journals, to record material conversions
. Compound bill of materials support, for units that contain assemblies
. Multiple locations (godowns)
. Excise for manufacturers, including all documentation and invoice
. Costing for jobs
Distributors & Wholesalers:
. Multiple price lists, with effective dates of applicability
. Use multiple units of measure (say KG's & grams)
. Dual units of measure (say KG's and bags, to support variations as happens in commodities)
Traders:
. High speed billing, with support for POS printers
. Bar code support
. Automatic application of taxes
. Service billing & service tax
. Integrated sales return in bills
. Print bills (and any other document) in the customers language
Common:
. You can choose to de-link the computed inventory value to automatically appear in
   your financial statements - and enter this figure manually.
. Stock ageing reports, to identify slow and non-moving stocks
. Invoice profitability reports to keep a pulse on sales
. Multi-currency transactions - buy and sell across the world - with integrated forex  gain/loss calculations
. Physical stock take records to adjust physical vs. actual stocks
. Maintain batch & expiry details
Purchases & Payables: from Order to Payment
Tally.ERP 9 delivers the entire purchase cycle whether the need is the complete purchase order - goods receipt - rejections & returns - advances, debits & payments or a single payment entry, fulfilling all needs.
To ensure that you have the right stocks and minimize carrying costs, Tally.ERP 9 delivers the following to improve purchase orders:
. Define Re-order levels as a definite number or based on consumption
. Define minimum quantity to order as a definite number or based on consumption
. Pull up a report that shows the stock position, including complete details of open purchaseorders, sales orders that need to be fulfilled - check on past purchase history, and then place orders
. Optionally stagger delivery dates in the PO
When receiving goods:
. Make entries in accordance with supporting documentation, including errors your suppliers could have made (say of multiplication & round off)
. Incorporate additional costs
. Automatically manage input taxes
. Flexibility allows receipt of goods, quantities and rates different from that ordered - since this is common in real life
. Record samples & free items (using different 'actual' & 'billed' quantities)
. Multiple receipts for one order or one receipt for multiple orders, or against verbal ordersIn case there is a need to add other costs (say coolie and cartage) these additional charges can be apportioned to the cost of goods purchased.
Supplied goods may not match your needs and these are managed by the 'Rejections Out' inventory voucher. Supplier dues, input taxes and inventory positions are updated.
Suppliers often indicate likely profits, which may not be met. In case such assurances are made, you can look at Item profitability reports, and get the facts right. You could then negotiate a rebate and record this as a debit note.
Keep tabs of how much is due to whom, when. Manage advances, payables & post dated checks. Ensure there are no errors in payments - print checks from Tally.ERP 9.
Sales & Receivables: from Order to Receipt
The lifeline of a business, efficiencies in sales operations, both of goods & services, directly impact growth and profitability. The need to optimise and keep a close watch here requires exceptional capabilities from your business IT system - and Tally.ERP 9 meets these demands.
The sales process is supported with the following documents:
. Quotations - records of quotes
. Sales orders - accepted customer orders
. Deliver Notes - documents that accompany goods
. Sales Invoices/Cash Bill - to record the sale
. Credit Notes - for financial adjustments
. Rejections in - for goods returns
. Receipts - for advances and receipts
Do you have cash sales (sales across the counter)? With support for Point of Sale printers, bar codes and receipts in multiple tenders, you POS enable your business at no additional cost. Product sales may come with added services - and the integrated product & service billing will close this.
Enforce credit limits, where needed. Along with the Payment Performance of Debtors report you can identify persistent problems and take necessary business decisions. Interest for delays & reminder letters aid in collection.
For businesses engaged in Excisable goods, you get full support for Excise for Traders & Manufacturing Excise - matter of fact a business could be both!
Make multiple deliveries from one order, or one from multiple orders - this common need is available across all documents of the sales process.
Do you have multiple classes of customers? You can easily setup multiple prices (even in advance and specify the date from which they are effective).
Discounts against the line, or for the document, additional charges as a percentage or lump sum, automatic round off of bill totals, automatic computation of VAT & Service tax, returns & exchanges are all available.Need to verify that you are making the desired sales margins? Item wise and bill wise profitability reports will help you keep tabs.
Multi-company
Security: With multiple companies, possibly including personal accounts, you may need to control who gets access to which companies, and to do what. You can set up users, grant or deny access - and these are defined for each company.
Remote Access: You choose to specify which company is accessible remotely. You choose which remote users have access; you decide what access a remote user gets.
Central User Management: Users come and go. You might also have a password policy requiring users to change passwords every few weeks. You can take advantage of the ease of central user and password management that Tally.NET identities carry - and even remotely manage these while not in office.

What is Series B
This Series will deliver major enhancements both in entirely new areas of functionality as well as in technology capabilities.
Technology & Capability Enhancements
Multi-session
Support for multiple application windows, which can even be launched by clicking on a mail link or a 'shortcut., Each of these are simultaneous 'windows' into different areas of your business processes & reports. Dynamic data refresh and the display of different views when resizing - for e.g. smaller windows displaying a more consolidated view of data, will improve organizational management and productivity.
Multi-threaded
A 'thread' is a specific task that is being performed by the microprocessor. Enhanced capabilities will be enabled such that each application window can perform more tasks simultaneously instead of linearly, including processing messages from the server. Multi-core processors, even on the desktop, are now common. We will take full advantage of these as well.
Multi Stack Architecture for Scale-up & Scale-down Deployments
To deliver the capabilities described above, and the ones that follow, Tally.ERP 9 will become 'componentised' - consisting of several layers of programs - often referred to as 'n-tier architecture'.
These software components are horizontally scalable, meaning that you can add one more computer to increase the computing power needed for a layer. In the same way, you can remove systems as needed, or collapse them into a single system - all of them even on a notebook, if required.
High Transaction Capacity with Low Latency & Management
Let us say that you start generating a report that needs to be extracted from a few thousand vouchers. This process is run in a 'session', which is isolated from all other users. Even if other users delete or modify any of the vouchers needed for the report while the report is being compiled, there is no impact on this session and you will get to see the report as if these other users did not exist.
In the same way, the user performing the edit will also be isolated. After the edit, he can open the voucher and see it with the changes he made, perhaps even delete it.
The architecture described above will in itself deliver substantial performance and transaction handling capacity. To push performance further in those cases when the storage media (typically the hard disk) is busy with other operations, additional capabilities will store these transactions 'temporarily' in a 'Q' for later write, while the user is free to continue his work (these transactions are protected against power failures and so on).
Payment Engine for Debit & Credit Cards
The facility for online payments using a variety of payment mechanisms (NEFT, online banking, credit cards), as well as receive payments (Debit / Credit Cards, NEFT etc) will be available.
Functional Enhancements
Online Banking and Reconciliation
Collaborating with Banks who wish to facilitate their customers with this capability, we will provide Online Banking - including Payment Instructions, Standing Instructions, DD, NEFT,RTGS Transfers, Balance Queries, Instruction Status, Automated or Semi-Automated Bank Reconciliation.
Point-of-Sale for most Retail Environments
Series B will support dedicated POS terminals, with Credit/Debit Card, Discount Coupons and various other payment mixes, Loyalty support, schemes, multi-layered supervisory control, simultaneous keyboard and scanner controls, integrated or isolated printing of bill and credit card authorisation slips, item substitution, rate markup/markdowns, integration with measuring devices - such as weighing scales, bill suspension and retrieval, bill reversals and cancellations, etc. It can also be used for other store operations (receipting, inventory management etc), and general business operations (finance and accounts) - both on the same machine or separate machines.
Income Tax
Comprehensive IT coverage encompassing corporate & individual income tax, including typical payroll requirements and e-Returns will be available.
EXIM Documentation
Import & export documentation has become a growing need with the world economy becoming more open. This requirement will be supported, additionally covering the processes that need to be managed along with the documentation.
Job Costing
The enhanced Job Costing functionality will support most job costing needs to a level of granularity that is increasingly needed. We expect that you will be able to handle most, if not all, project accounting needs as well.
Fixed Assets
To take advantage of tax breaks as well as to manage organizational assets, this feature will support all requirements - from opening assets, adding, removing, amalgamating, grouping, vendor tagging, AMC's, servicing, service calendars, repairs and upkeep, refurbishing, breaking-down, depreciating and disposal for complete fixed asset management.

Connectivity between SQL Serevr 2008 and SAP BW using Microsoft Connector 1.0

Hi ALL
         I am trying to connect to SSIS 2008 to SAP BW using Microsoft Connector 1.0.
Following are stepes I performed.
1. Created RFC on SAP BW Server.
2. Created Prcess Chain in SAP BW.
3. Created SSIS Package using SAP BI Source. Here I set Execution Mode : P Trigger   Process Chain.
The process chain is executing fine on SAP BW Server, But it is unable to send back a
notification to SSIS package. And here my SSIS package failed.
I am getting following error message :
[SAP BI Source] Information: Process Start Process, variant Start Variant for MSBI has status Completed (instance D8Z84GJ2RLV7WCI2IYK5CZ1R3)
[SAP BI Source] Error: An internal exception occurred.
Microsoft.SqlServer.Dts.SapBw.Connectivity.ERPException:
An error occurred during the dispatch of the incoming function. The last return code was "RFC_FAILURE".
Before this error I am getting following messages are :
[SAP BI Source] Information: Process Data Transfer Process, variant Z09_O101 -> Z09_H101 has status Active (instance DTPR_D8Z84GJ2RLVZKYTTUHZRFEG0V)
[SAP BI Source] Information: The component is waiting for a notification.
Is there any way to test the both the way connections? I mean SAP BW -- SSIS &                SSIS --- SAPBW.
Can any one please explain me entire connectivity architecture between SSIS and SAP BW using Microsoft Connector 1.0. (I mean how these RFC are working and how SSIS is pulling the data from SAP BW)

I am having the same problem. We actually loaded data a few times but now it does not work. It is amazing that we cannot find help for this problem. Has anyone been successful using the BI connector 1.1 to load data to a BI system using SSIS. I think
this had to do with either a DLL problem on the machine running SSIS or the Service Pack level of the BI system. I cannot find any documentation showing versions. I have looked through the documentation that was written back in 2008 but can't seem to
get it to work.
Sorry we are trying to push data (BW Destination) to BI it looks like you are trying to get data from BI.

Lotus Notes 7.0.1/7.0.2 and SAP Business Workflow

Hi Everyone!
Please help me on this.
My client has received an email from IBM that they could have their SAP Connector free of charge if they are to upgrade their current Lotus connector ver5 to version 7.0.2. This version has included Workflow Integration as part of IBM's integration points with SAP.
Does anyone have an experience on integrating the two? Please share documents or procedures on how to integrate them.
My current configuration is intended for a 1-way communication integration.
I used the report RSWUWFML2 for sending notifications (though in my case, it only sends a message that there were workitems present in the recipient's SAP inbox). The SMTP configuration works fine. The client has not yet purchased the SAP connector.
If the SAP Connector is now available, the 2-way communication will be imposed.
I am planning to configure a 1-way communication integration where it could work either on a 1-way or 2-way communication. Is this possible?
Can I have a configuration (for sending of workitems to Lotus mail or internet mail) which could have a link that connects the recipient to the transaction for approval or workitem execution?
Thank you very much experts!!!
Best regards,
Reymar

http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04s/helpdata/en/9d/24ff4009b8f223e10000000a155106/content.htm
Some features of BI 7 are
1. In Infosets now you can include Infocubes as well.
2. The Remodeling transaction helps you add new key figure and characteristics and handles historical data as well without much hassle. This is only for info cube.
3. The BI accelerator (for now only for infocubes) helps in reducing query run time by almost a factor of 10 - 100. This BI accl is a separate box and would cost more. Vendors for these would be HP or IBM.
4. The monitoring has been imprvoed with a new portal based cockpit. Which means you would need to have an EP guy in ur project for implementing the portal !
5. Search functionality hass improved!! You can search any object. Not like 3.5
6. Transformations are in and routines are passe! Yess, you can always revert to the old transactions too.

Optimum approach to architect BI solution in Business Object and SAP BI

Hi Expects , I as long as my experience going in delivering BI solution in Business Object and SAP BI We have option to connect to SAP BI via Building BO Universe on SAP BI cube or BEX Query . Now take a example we have 1000s of BEX queries in production. So Should I architect the solution recommending creation of 1000s of BO Universe. Which I donu2019t feel fusible option. You may reply me back saying create BO Universe on SAP BI Cube/Multiprovider, which will reduce no of universe to be created . But at the same time couple of questions comes in my mind u20131. Will I be able to leverage SAP BIA (SAP Business Intelligence Accelerator) to get best performance . 2. As of now BIA dose not accelerate queries build on Multiprovider ??? I believe When I Build Universe on BEX Query It will leverage BIA , But Not sure what will happen if I build BO Universe on Cube. Can we collectedly arrive at Optimum approach to architect Bi solution in Business Object and SAP BI ?? Comments are welcomed Regards Ashutosh D

Ashuthosh...
You might want to have a look at Pioneer for another option for your architecture.

Difference between SAP SLD and SAP Management console

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
Shailik

Hi,
SAP SLD is the central information provider in a system landscape.this contains both Component information and Landscape description.COMPONENT Info in sense all the sap products and components along with their versions, And also third party products also.LANDSCAPE desc in sense the description of all the systems in particular landscape.
Example:This can shows exact idea for you.Components like CAF,Webdynpo(WD-java),BPM etc info.And the host names,Message server ports etc.Here we dont have start/stop functionality.
SAP MC provides a common framework for centralized system management. It allows you to monitor and perform basic administration tasks on the SAP system centrally, thus simplifying system administration. Using the SAP MC you can
1.Monitor and control (start, stop, or restart) the SAP system and its instances with a single tool
2.Monitor system alerts
3.Display the list of all access points to an SAP system etc.
We can see difference by looking into http://<host name>:<port>/index.html
Look and feel are also differ.
For more info you can go through these links of sap help.

Interface between business ware house system and SAP SD module

hi,
I want to develop interface between business ware house system(file adapter) and SAP SD module. how can i post the data into SD system? can any one tell me which Idoc i should use in receiver side?
if i want to go abap proxy how can do it?
give some inputs(methods which i should use)
Thanks in advance
regards
Ruban

Hey
the selection of IDOC depends upon what you wanna post into SD.get in touch with the ABAP guys and they should be able to tell u exactly which IDOC to use.
once u have decided on IDOC,you can go for a File to IDOC scenario.
as far as proxies are concerned,they kinda give better performance compared to IDOC but you need to do ABAP coding for them,in that case u dont need any IDOC
Thanx
