Implications of uploading roles from SAP 4.7 to SAP ECC 6.0 EHP 5?

HI Gurus,
Please tell what would be the cons for uploading the roles from SAP 4.7 to ECC6.0 EHP5.
Would there be issues in doing the same?
Regards,
Sonu

Hi Sonu,
There me be changes in authorization object assignment for the roles. Some objects may be deleted and new objects may be addedd to the transactions.
Instead of uploading you can better get the list of transactions for every role and create them newly in ECC 6 EHP 5 system and maintain them according to the old roles.
Thanks,
Kranthi

  • Error while uploading roles from quality to production

    Dear friends,
    I have to upload roles from quality to production.
    I have downloaded it from qualtiy but while uploading to production it is giving me an error "File does not contain valid data".
    Can anybody tell me what could be the problem and how to resolve it.
    Thanks in advance
    regards
    Nirgun

    HI matore,
    the best way is to transport the roles from DEV to QA and then to production as julius suggested
    are you trying for mass down load are single role
    Mass download
    go to PFCG >> utilities>> Mass download>> select all the roles which you want to move it to production
    and execute save it on desktop
    now go to production system>> go to PFCG>>in menu click on roles>>click on upload>>select the file which is saved in desktop and click ok
    mass generation of roles
    in the menu click on utilities>>mass generation>>give the role names with you have uploaded and click on execute select all click on genetate button
    download a single role
    go to PFCG>>in the menu click on role>>click on down load and save it on desktop
    now go to production system>> go to PFCG>>in menu click on roles>>click on upload>>select the file and click ok
    now you needs to manully generate the role
    do the user comparison
    hope this helps
    thanks

  • Can u upload Roles from 4.6C to ECC 6.0

    Hi all,
    1. Can we upload some roles from 4.6C system to an ECC 6.0 system? Will it accept and work properly?

    Same as for the download, PFCG. Do mind the character set ('parameter' pulldown menu at the bottom of file save/open dialog box), they have to be the same on both sides.

  • IView Template used when uploading role from R/3 to Portal

    Hi all,
    I was wondering what iView template is used when you upload a role from R/3 that contains Web Dynpro ABAP applications.  I want to change some of the default parameters in the template, more importantly, close the Detailed Navigation panel on the left.
    Hope this makes sense,
    Thanks,
    Kevin

    Hi Kevin,
    From your explanation, it seems you can see the iViews in Portal role editor under Content Administration.
    Under Content Administration
    Open the Role for Editing
    In the Editor, select the iview and Click on OPEN button.
    Now, you should be able to see the properties of the iView in the Editor.
    Please check for the property "Code link", which give you the details of the class or template in use.
    Hope, this will help
    Cheers!!!

  • Gui Type when upload role from SAP R/3

    Hi.
    We execute Role Upload function in EP 60.
    It take R/3 Role and create role, transaction iview in  EP.
    My problem is when Role Upload function create transaction iview, They set Gui Type = WebGUI.
    We just use WinGUI.
    Is there any config for this ?
    Regards, Arnold.

    Although this question is rather old now I'll leave an answer for anyone that may be having similar problems.
    After using the role upload tool use multiple property replacement on the uploaded iViews.
    property id:  SAP_GuiType
    new value : WinGui

  • Uploading Roles from ECC 6.0 to SCM 5.1 (APO)

    Hi,
    We are trying to re-use some roles created in SAP ECC 6.0 in order to be used in a APO(SAP SCM 5.10) system.
    We downloaded and uploaded the roles to the target system, although we do not identify any problem in doing that I will like ask the experts if there is something that I should do or not, and if there is something that we have to take into account in doing this.
    The roles are only for some activities that are the same in both systems like user administration, authorization administration and other technical stuff that is the same in both systems.
    Our goal of course is that every time that we make changes in the source system we will download and upload in order to keep updated the target system.
    I would like appreciate your opinion
    Best Regards
    FedeX

    > We downloaded and uploaded the roles to the target system, although we do not identify any problem in doing that I will like ask the experts if there is something that I should do or not, and if there is something that we have to take into account in doing this.
    Well, there could be a difference in objects, customizing switches and patchlevels which could lead to unwanted (and sometimes almost invisble) problems. If there are objects in the roles that do not exist in the target system (or if they're linked to a non-existent object class) you will not be able to see or maintain them in PFCG.
    This will also cause problems when transporting these roles through the target landscape.
    So I'd suggest you thoroughly compare TOBJ on both systems and make sure these tables are identical for the objects concerned. That should cover technical issues. After that make sure the systems behave the same (customizing etc).

  • How to programmatically upload roles to Portals.

    How can we programmatically upload roles from CUA to Portal. Are there any BAPI's or any other methods that we can use to accomplish this. We currently have a program that runs as a job every night to create users and assigns them roles in R/3, EBP and WP systems and we would it to do the same thing for portals.
    Any ideas/suggestions will be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks.

    Marek,
    Thank you very much for your guidance. We are still stuck, we checked the configuration and it's set to SAP system but we don't see any R/3 roles in portals. Can you give us a little more details on:
    1). Are there any specific entries in dataSourceConfiguration_r3_roles_db.xml file that would need to be changed?
    2). Do we have to create roles in R/3 any differently in order for them to appear as groups in portal? Should these roles be created in ABAP side of Portal client or in R/3 client. Also, Where do these roles appear as groups in portal(path to get to those groups).
    Any ideas/suggestions will be greatly appreciated.

  • Run-time reading of roles from backend system

    EP5 unification provided the ability of displaying an end-user's backend system roles in the iPanel.  This did not require importing the backend role to EP5.  This greatly reduces the maintenance of roles in EP (especially with BW!

    Hi Daniel,
    You have a possibility to upload the whole Role from R/3 to EP6 Portal. You do it the following way:
    Create system in Portal for your R/3.
    Navigation to System Administration->Transport->Role Upload. Select system that you wish to upload Role from, search for your role.
    That's it!
    All objects in uploaded role become iViews.

    Early this month we upgraded the MDM server to:
    MDM Server version: 5.5.63.57
    And the portal components:
    MDM 5.5 SP06 Technology Patch 3 (Build 5.5.63.57)
    MDM 5.5 SP06 Application Patch 3 (Build 5.5.63.57)
    MDM 5.5 SP06 Java API Patch 3 (Build 5.5.63.57)
    However the issue just began 2 days ago?
    We started intgrating MDM Workflow with UWL and assigned Roles and Iviews to the Universal Worklist Configuration
    It seems the Iviews work for a while and then after some time everything gives up? Very confounding
    And yes we are using standard Iviews (search, Result and detail)
    Thanks
