Interface and conversion testing of SAP environments with Master Data

Hi guy's
Please let me know if some one of you know about SAP Conversion Project. Below you have more description:
- testing of Interfaces from Legacy Systems
- testing of conversion programs used in the conversion or transposition of data from legacy systems
- data cleansing activities associated with conversion
- identify and populate various SAP environments with Master Data necessary for both conversion and interface testing
Any detail info in that and what kind of knowledge you need to have in some of project will be useful.
Thanks in advance
Adeel

Hi Yannick,
I am trying to do the exact same thing. Have you gotten any further on this issue?

All,
Kindly guide us thr process of converiosn and interface testing before start of interface yesting?
How should we capture result?

Arpit,
Where did you finally land on this issue? If this is an ongoing issue I'm quite confident redefining the conversion factors to be 37 TO <> 200 DR will resolve your issue. Here's an example of what the inventory would look like if receipted at various quantities:
TO
DR
0.185

Hi,
   interface can be outbound i.e writing data to
   application server using open dataset,transfer
or downloading data (gui_download)
   inbound -> reading data from application server using
              open dataset,read dataset,uploading data
              using gui_upload.

Need RICEF Security specfifications for Interfaces and Conversions

Hi All,
I need RICEF security specfications for Interfaces and Conversions. Can anyone provide any input on this.
Regards
Plaban

Hi Plaban,
Thanks for the detailed explanation. As mentioned, as per my knowledge there is no specific guideline/template that you may adapt while designing the security design for the Interfaces and Conversions.
However, the most common issues that occurs with IDOCs is with file interfaces are related to file permissions, file ownership and character conversions moving between platforms.
Ensure that the appropriate authorization (read/write and with filters) authorization is provided. Identify the various levels of authorizations required and implement the same.
Further, most issues with ALE interfaces are with RFC user ID permissions. Ensure that the appropriate and only the Required authorization is provided to these IDs. This way you can tighten the authorization to the specific level. You may need to completely test the functionality before implementing this.
It is always important to understand these limitations during the functional design. If any specific additional functionality is required, you may need to have a custom based solution.
Hope this answers your question!!
Warm Regards,
Raghu

Interface and Conversion

Where ca we get guidelines and solutions for interface and conversions.
Thanks.

Sounds ike you might be talking about one of the 87 different products that Oracle sells, or perhaps one or two of the 315,683 features that Oracle products has.
Perhaps some details are in order
... and perhaps some digging in the appropriate Documentation at http://docs.oracle.com
... and perhaps asking in a forum (at http://forums.oracle.com) that deals with whatever it is you want, instead of a forum that deals with problems encountered during product download.

CVC creation - Strange issue with Master data table of 9AMATNR

Hi Experts,
We have encountered a strange issue with Master data table (/BI0/9APMATNR) of info object 9AMATNR.
We have a BADI implemented for checking the valid Characteristic before creation of the CVC using transaction /SAPAPO/MC62. This BADI puts a select on master data tab of material /BI0/9APMATNR and returns no value. But the material actually exists in the table (checked through SE16).
Now we go inside the info object 9AMATNR and go to the Master data Tab. There we go inside the master table
/BI0/9APMATNR and activate that. After activating the table it is read by the select statement inside BADI (Strange) and allows the CVC to be created.
Ideally it should not allow us to activate the SAP standard table /BI0/9APMATNR. I observed that in technical settings of this table it has single record buffering as switched on. (But as per my knowledge buffer gets refreshed every 2 to 4 mins and not in 2 days or something).
Your expert comment is valuable to us. Thanks.
Best Regards,
Chandan Dubey

Hi Chandan,
Try to use a WAIT statment with 5 seconds before your select statment.
I'm not sure whether this will work. Anyway check it and let me know the result.

Create Client copy only with Master data

hi friends,
we are going for SAP Re-Implementation.
we want client copy only with master data without having transactional data
Is it possible to copy the master data from production to production.
can we transfer the data using ALE/I DOCS...?
Is there is any standard BAPI to transfer data across client....?
if there is any solution please give me guidance.
i have searched in SDN and SAP technical but i can't find the proper solution.
Thanks in advance.
regards,
karunakar

Hi Karunakar,
1) Make a client copy ready 2) Use Idoc and moved the master data. I am not sure how much data it is.We did the same before.
Check these links form Peter.

Use of "with master data & with out master data" at DTP update level

Hello experts,
In DTP, I check "with out master data". When I try to send corresponding transactional data, It is showing SID related error. Can anybody suggest what is the use of "with master data & with out master data" at DTP level.
Thanks in advance,
Zakir.

HI
HI in DTP level If you set this indicator, the system terminates the update of the request if no values are available for a data record.
Load the relevant master data before you load the transaction data.
If you set this indicator, the system terminates activation if master data is missing and produces an error message.
If you do not set this indicator, the system generates any missing SID values during activation.
In DataStore maintenance, if you do not set the SIDs Generation upon Activation indicator, the No Update without Master Data indicator in the DTP has no effect.
thx

Transction data loading with master data as key?

Expert's,
I am trying to load the transction data with master data as a key.ZEMPID is my masterdata which having attributes ZEMPNAM and ZEMPDES .My transction data contains ZEMPID.ZEMPSAL and ZEMPAGE.I could create the master data and also load it successfully.But when I tried to create the infosource for trasctional data I should get all the attributes whatever I have given it for the ZEMPID.This I am not getting.Also While creating the cube if I select the infosource then in chraracterstic tab I am not getting my characterstics(master data+attribute).Please any one help me.

Hello Vasu
You are talkin abt transactional data and saying that not created cube/Ods ..
Let me put the things again
1. When you load master data you create infosource ( direct or indirect), All the attribute will be automatically comes in the infosource...when you define application component in master data tab in infoobject maintenance it is ready for data to be loaded. Search for application component in infosource..u will get the flow
2. When you load data in infocube only transactional data goes in it.....master data presents in master data tables...In infosource you define what are the field which need to be present in cube.......so you will be able to include only these objects which are present in cube dimensions + attribute which are defined navigational in the cube....
Master data attribute will never be pushed automatically....only componding object are pushed automatically.....
If you want to load attribute of ZEMPID then make them navigational in cube or add them in one of cubes dimension...
Hope i could make myself clear
Thanks

Assigning InfoObject with Master Data as InfoProvider

Hi,
In BW 3.x we used to assign the InfoObject with Master Data as InfoProvider only if we want to perform Query on that InfoObject.
But in BI 2004's, is it must to assign InfoObject with Master Data as an InfoProvider???
Because when I create the Transformation to load Text or Attribute Data, the system automatically assigs that InfoObject as an InfoProvider.
Is there a way to skip using that InfoObject as an InfoProvider during Tranformation if I do not want to perform any reporting on it.
Thanks,

Hello Sesh,
No. It is not possible.
However for easy grouping, create another infoarea and attach all report relevent infoproviders under this infoarea.

0CALMONTH2 with Master data

Hi folks,
anyone here, who can explain, why i cannot activate check box "with Master data" for InfoObject 0CALMONTH2? Other time characteristics can be set "with Master data".
I want to create a query, which consist out of two key figures. One with costs of the current year and one with costs of the previous year. The key figures should be drilled down by 0CALMONTH2. The problem is, that the fiscal year starts in October. But October, November and December are listed at the end of the table, on the right side. The table should start with October! So i want to use a display attribute on characteristic 0CALMONTH2, that defines sort sequence for months. But unfortunately i can't do so....
Ideas?

Hi Shantanu,
Is the info-object a "referenced" info-object?
(in the right top corner you will find "Reference Char."
Then you can only change the original Info-object.

Possibility of combining exception broadcasting with master data bursting

Hi Experts,
We have a scenario where it is required to combine exception broadcasting with master data bursting.
As per my understanding if you choose broadcast method as 'exception broadcasting', there is no option for choosing 'master data bursting'.
Am I missing something or Is there a workaround or some method to achieve the same.
Thanks

Hi,
62 Scheduling: Master data inconsistent Check master data !
Remove "In House Processing Time" from the Material Master MRP2
view. Ensure that the Production Version & Routing are correct. Run
MPS/MRP manually once corrected.
