Is there a ruleset comparison tool available in the market?

Dear all,
I wanted to know if there is a SAP GRC ruleset comparison tool available in the market? As a part of our audit requirement, I would need to compare our current rulesets with the ones from last quarter - To identify any changes/enhancements.
I know Bizrights Approva supports a comparison tool called ExamXML where we can perform a comparison of 2 XML files and figure out the differences/ changes.
Please let me know if any of you has used such a tool for GRC ruleset comparison.
Thanks,
Kunal

If any auditor is comparing sap delivered rule sets with a companies' grc rule sets (without deep investigations) and reporting the differences in his/her audit report (as white spaces) then the auditor is doing it the wrong way.
The auditor should be aware of the following facts:
1. SAP delivered rule sets are mere best practices (only starting point)
2. Most of the customers modify/update the rule sets as per their requirements
3. Organizational rules are created by customers differently
4. Some customers don't even choose sap delivered rule sets and completely create their own.
So the difference between rule sets is obvious, but these findings may or may not be entirely appropriate to reach to a conclusion for audit purposes.

Is there a MASS COMPARISON tool available anywhere?

Hello friends,
Is there a mass comparison tool available? I have over hundred programs in QA environment which must be compared to their counterpart in the DEV environment. Currently the only way I know is to go through the list and compare one at a time which is very tedious, time consuming and error prone. So, an alternative to this is most welcome.
Thanks for your help.

Hello Goharjou
I would create a simple eCATT testscript for transaction SE39 (Split-screen Editor) where you compare the source on DEV vs. QA system. When you push the "Comparison On" button in the split-screen editor you will get the message "The Programs are not identical" (EDCMP, 417) if the two sources are not identical.
This way you can restrict the number of program objects which actually differ on DEV vs. QA.

When adding a printer share within Print Management receive "There are no more endpoints available from the endpoint mapper."

I've installed Server 2012 as a print server (Print server will be the only function of this server). I'm now trying to add printers. The first one I've added is a HP 2035 with the Windows update HP Universal PCL6 driver. If I chose to share the printer
during the setup I receive "There are no more endpoints available from the endpoint mapper." If I choose not to share during the setup, it adds without any issues...until I launch Properties and attempt to share it. I'm finding it doesn't seem to
matter what driver I use, whenever I share I end up with the same result. I've also tried using the PCL6 Universal Driver from HP, no change. I'e been researching this issue for hours without any change. By default, we disable firewalls on servers (Some TN
thread suggested checking to ensure the firewall is disabled). Spooler isn't crashing. I've tried adding a few others printers, running into the exact same issue. Why is trying to share the printers causing this issue?

I've seen some people state they get this error when disabling the Windows Firewall service. I've never seen the error with the service disabled but it may be the replacement software interfering.
If it's off start up the service and let us know the outcome.

There is not enough memory available on the Essbase Administration Server to open this outline

When I am trying to open outline it is showing the below error-
"There is not enough memory available on the Essbase Administration Server to open this outline"
Please advise what can be the reason and how can we solve them?
I checked the earlier post https://forums.oracle.com/message/4434719 and JVMOption is set with the current maximum size of the JVM e.g. -Xmx512m. Still we are receiving the error. Could you please help?

Thanks John for the reply.
Couple of things
1) We use Block Storage Outline. Does it matter while compacting the outline using ESSCMDQ?
2) At the moment the JVM is set to -Xmx512m. Should we increase from 512 to 1024 or what is recommended.
We are doing ESSBASE 7.1.3 to 11.x (11.1.2.2) migration (AS IT IS migration) and we are facing this problem. Quite strange that we didn't get any memory error version 7.x whereas we are getting error in 11.x My understanding is that the current ESSBASE server has 6 GB RAM and in all ways it has higher capacity than server 7.x. But not sure why we are getting this strange error.
Is it possible to check the JVM size in ESSBASE 7.1.3 (or where we need to check the memory size).
Thanks in advance.

There are no stack configurations available in the Maintenance Optimizer

Hello,
I am trying to install Enhancement Pack 1 (EhP 1) on our DEV system, using SAINT in SAP NerWeaver 7.0.
I have downloaded the EHP1 and cpoied them into the "EPS\in" directory.
When I press the u201CStack Configurationu201D button, I get a pop-up that says, "There are no stack configurations available in the Maintenance Optimizer".
Does it require any files like .XML to load the files? Please let me know your suggestions.
Thanks,
Niranjan.

what happened to us was we did not download the upgrade programs for EHP1. Make sure you download both SPs in note 1169247. The first one has the SPs and upgrades SPs for Solman 7.0 to EHP1. The second download for the SPs for EHP1).
Also, we did it manually without the using the button 'stack configuration. Hope this help.

Is there a faster hard drive available for the 1.83Ghz Dual Core MacMini?

Is there a faster hard drive available for the 1.83Ghz Dual Core MacMini? Since this is the slowest component of the whole system is there a way to upgrade to something faster (possibly a 7200RPM drive)?
thanks,
Jeff

Ways to make it faster:
1) Be sure you aren't running any Rosetta apps or drivers. Watch out for print drivers. You can use Utilities > Activity Monitor to spot the legacy stuff that uses Rosetta. (Make sure the pop-down menu at the top of the Activity Monitor window says "All Processes", not just "My processes".)
2) Max your RAM to 2 Gigs. You can't go to 3 Gigs since you only have the CoreDuo CPU.
3) Whatever hard drive you use, keep at least one-third of it empty. Obviously this will be easier with a large external firewire drive.
4) 3.5 inch drives will be faster than 2.5 inch drives -- even at the same RPM. So again, external will be the way to go, since Minis can only take 2.5 inch internals.
If you want an external that stacks under the Mini, some examples are here:
http://www.123macmini.com/accessories/guide/enclosures.html
(The NewerTech and WiebeTech models appear to have good reputations, though I have no personal experience with them.)
But again, all of the factors I mention above will affect performance.

HI Stockton,
1. Try to start with the Basic Concepts of SD which are given Below:
SD FLOW/ OVERVIEW:
Sales
Inquiry - A customers request to a company that they provide a quotation or sales information without obligation. An inquiry can relate to materials or services, conditions and if necessary delivery dates. The sales area that accepts the inquiry becomes responsible for further processing.
Quotation - A quotation presents the customer with a legally binding offer for delivering a product or providing a service within certain fixed conditions. This offer is legally binding for the company within a specified time period. A sales area can reply to a customer inquiry with a customer quotation or use it to refer to a business partner contact.
Sales Order - Request from a customer to a company to deliver a defined quantity of products or provide a service at a certain time.
The sales area that accepts the inquiry is responsible for completing the agreement.
Create Delivery:a. Picking - The picking process involves taking goods from a storage location and staging the right quantity in a picking area where the goods will be prepared for shipping.
b. Packing - Packing is part of delivery- and shipment processing. When you process a delivery, you can select delivery items for packing and assign them to handling units (HUs).
c. Goods Issue - As soon as the goods leave the company, the shipping business activity is finished. This is illustrated using goods issue for outbound deliveries.
Billing - Billing represents the final processing stage for a business transaction in Sales and Distribution. Information on billing is available at every stage of order processing and delivery processing.

SD Configuration:
Enterprise Structure:
1. Maintaining Sales Organization
Sales Organization is an organizational unit responsible for the sale of certain products or services.
IMG -> Enterprise Structure -> Definition -> Sales and Distribution -> Define, copy, delete, check Sales organization
2. Assigning Sales Organization to Company Code
This assignment ensures all the sales made through this Sales Organization are accounted for in the assigned Company Code (Company Code is created by FI Consultant).
IMG -> Enterprise Structure -> Assignment -> Sales and Distribution -> Assign Sales Organziation to Company Code
3. Maintaining Distribution Channel
Distribution Channel is the way, in which Products or Services reach Customers.
IMG -> Enterprise Structure -> Definition -> Sales and Distribution -> Define, copy, delete, check distribution channel
4. Assigning Distribution Channel to Sales Organization
This assignment ensures, a Sales Organization can supply Materials to Customers through this Distribution Channel.
IMG -> Enterprise Structure -> Assignment -> Sales and Distribution > Assign distribution channel to sales organization
5. Maintaining Division
Division is a way of grouping materials, products, or services.
IMG -> Enterprise Structure -> Definition -> Logistics - General -> Define, copy, delete, check division
6. Assigning Division to Sales Organization
IMG -> Enterprise Structure -> Assignment -> Sales and Distribution -> Assign division to sales organization
7. Setting up Sales Area
All the sales are made from a particular sales Area. For creating a Sales Order Sales Area is compulsory.
IMG ->Enterprise Structure -> Assignment -> Sales and Distribution -> Set up sales area
8. Assigning Sales Organization- Distribution Channel- Plant
Plant is created ny MM Consultant.
IMG -> Enterprise Structure -> Assignment -> Sales and Distribution -> Assign sales organization - distribution channel - plant
9. Define Shipping Points
Shipping Point is the Organizational element, which is responsible for shipping the Materials to the Customers.
IMG -> Enterprise Structure -> Definition -> Logistics Execution -> Define, copy, delete, check shipping point
10 Assigning Shipping Point to Plant
This assignment ensures that goods from different Plant can be dispatched from different Shipping Points.
IMG -> Enterprise Structure -> Assignment -> Logistics Execution -> Assign shipping point to plant
Note: Ensure to do the undermentioned configuration also though it is not in Customizing node of Enterprise Structure.
11. Defining Common Distribution Channels for Master Data
Use
The purpose of this activity is to define distribution channels which have common master data..
Procedure
Access the activity using one of the following navigation options:
IMG Menu -> Sales and Distribution -> Master Data -> Define Common Distribution Channels
Transaction Code: VOR1
12. Defining Common Divisions for Master DataUse
The purpose of this activity is to define distribution channels which have common master data..
Procedure
Access the activity using one of the following navigation options:
IMG Menu -> Sales and Distribution -> Master Data -> Define Common Division
Transaction Code: VOR2
Pricing Procedure
In SD, Pricing Procedure is determined based on Sales Area (Sales Organization + Distribution Centre + Division) + Customer Pricing Procedure + Document Pricing Procedure. Sales Area is determined in Sales Order Header Level. Customer Pricing Procedure is determined from Customer Master. Document Pricing Procedure is determined from Sales Document Type / Billing Type (if configured). Once the pricing procedure is determined, Condition records are fetched. If appropriate condition records are found, the price is determined. If Mandatory pricing condition is missing, system will through an error message.
In SD, the steps to configure Pricing procedure are as under:
Step 1:
Condition table: If existing condition table meets the requirement, we need not create a new condition table. Considering the requirement for new condition table, the configuration will be done in spro as follows: IMG --> Sales & Distribution --> Basic Function --> Pricing Control --> Condition Table (select the required fields combination, which will store condition record).
Step 2:
Access Sequence: If existing access sequence meets the requirement, we need not create a new access sequence. Considering the requirement for new sequence, the configuration will be done in spro as follows: IMG --> Sales & Distribution --> Basic Function --> Pricing Control --> Access Sequence (Access sequence is made up of Accesses (Tables) & the order of priority in which it is to be accessed. Here we assign the condition table to access sequence.
Step 3:
Condition Type: If existing condition type meets the requirement, we need not create a new condition type. Considering the requirement for new condition type, the configuration will be done in spro as follows: IMG --> Sales & Distribution --> Basic Function --> Pricing Control --> Condition Type. It is always recommended to copy an existing similar condition type & make the neccessary changes. Here we assign Access sequence to Condition type.
Step 4:
a. Pricing Procedure: It is recommended to copy a similar pricing procedure & make the neccesary changes in new pricing procedure. Pricing Procedure is a set of condition type & arranged in the sequence in which it has to perform the calculation. Considering the requirement for new Pricing Procedure, the configuration will be done in spro as follows: IMG --> Sales & Distribution --> Basic Function --> Pricing Control --> Pricing Procedure --> Maintain Pricing Procedure.
b. Pricing Procedure: After maintaining the pricing procedure the next step will be determination of pricing procedure. Configuration for determining pricing procedure in SPRO is as follows: IMG --> Sales & Distribution --> Basic Function --> Pricing Control --> Pricing Procedure --> Determine Pricing Procedure.
5. Condition record: Condition record is a master data, which is required to be maintained by Core team / person responsible from the client. During new implementation, the condition records can be uploaded using tools like SCAT, LSMW, etc.
Normal Sales Order Cycle:-
Step 1: Sales Document Type
IMG > Sales and Distribution > Sales > Sales Documents >
Sales Document Header:
1. Sales Document Type:The sales document types represent the different business transactions, such as Inquiry, Quotation, Sales Order, etc. To create new sales order type, always copy as with reference to similar sales order. If possible use standard sales order.
2. Define Number Ranges For Sales Documents: Maintain number range with discussion with core team.
3. Assign Sales Area To Sales Document Types:
A. Combine sales organizations / Combine distribution channels / Combine divisions: Ensure to maintain these, else Sales Order creation will give error.
B. Assign sales order types permitted for sales areas: Assign only required Sales Order Types to required Sales Area. This will minimize selection of Sales Order Type as per sales area.
Sales Document Item:
1. Define Item Categories: If possible use Standard Item Category. Incase if required to create new, copy as from standard & maintain New.
2. Assign Item Categories: If possible, use standard. Formula for deriving item category: Sales Document Type + Item Category Group + Usage + Higher Level Item Category = Item Category
Schedule Line:
1. Define Schedule Line Categories: If possible use Standard Schedule Lines. Incase if required to create new, copy as from standard & maintain New.
2. Assign Schedule Line Categories: If possible, use standard. Formula for deriving Schedule Line: Item Category + MRP Type / No MRP Type.
Step 2:
IMG > Logistic Execution > Shipping > Deliveries >
1. Define Delivery Types: If possible use Standard Delivery Type. Incase if required to create new, copy as from standard & maintain New.
2. Define Item Categories for Deliveries: If possible use Standard Item Categories for Delivery Type. Incase if required to create new, copy as from standard & maintain New.
3. Define Number Ranges for Deliveries: Ensure to maintain number range.
Step 3:
IMG > Sales and Distribution > Billing >
1. Define Billing Types: If possible use Standard Billing Type. Incase if required to create new, copy as from standard & maintain New.
2. Define Number Range For Billing Documents: Ensure to maintain number range.
3. Maintain Copying Control For Billing Documents: Maintain relevant copy controls such as Sales Order to Billing, Deliver to Billing, etc.
he configuration differs from scenario to scenario & requirement of the client.

2.Hope aware that SAP- SD itself the Big one.try to Explore the various Scenarios in SD and be Stong in Some Areas like Pricing, Intercompany Billing, Third Party Sales, LSWM, EDI Etc.,
3.The link between SD and MM: -
1. When you create sales order in SD, all the details of the items are copied from Material master of MM.
2. MRP and availability check related data is also taken from MM although you control this data in SD also.
3. While you create inbound/outbound delivery with reference to a sales order, the shipping point determination takes place with the help of the loading group, plant data, shipping conditions etc. This also refers to Material Master.
4. The material which you are entering in a sales order must be extended to the sales area of your sales order/customer otherwise you cannot transact with this material.
There are many such links between SD and MM.
SD INTEGRATON WITH MM
1a. Looking at MM and SD interaction first, take the scenario of a third party order process. This process uses a purchase order (which is sent to your vendor). Also invoice verification is used further along the process to check that the invoice you send to your customer is the same material and quantity as that which the vendor sends to you (but obviously shipped
directly to your customer).
1b. Billing is an SD function. But SAP needs to know, when processing a customer's payment, to which GL account the payment has to be processed. For instance payment of a UK based material would be placed in a different GL account to that of a non-UK based material. Furthermore, a UK based customer may have a different GL account to that of an Export customer. This is configured in Account Determination.
2. ABAPers are there to essential do some bespoke development. Your integration, or interaction, with them would be when specifying the tables, fields, input fields, a simple process explanation, data mapping (if doing an interface from one system to another) etc. *-- Shahee
The link between SD and MM :-
1. When you create sales order in SD, all the details of the items are copied from Material master of MM.
2. MRP and availability check related data is also taken from MM although you control this data in SD also.
3. While you create inbound/outbound delivery with reference to a sales order, the shipping point determination takes place with the help of the loading group, plant data, shipping conditions etc. This also refers to Material Master.
4. The material which you are entering in a sales order must be extended to the sales area of your sales order/customer otherwise you cannot transact with this material.
There are many such links between SD and MM
In Pricing we would want to determine the cost of the product
thru VPRS Condition Type. This cost of the material is
picked from the Material Master. How this happens is, if
we would want to determine this cost VPRS in the Sales Order
for Profitability purpose then , all those Item categories
that can appear in a sales order must be activated for
Determine Cost Check box in customizing. Thats one of the SD
MM Integration.

Is there a .pst migration tool available?

I am migrating pop maliboxes (.pst) files onto our JMS server using IMAP and it is sluggish. The server is an x4140 (2 dual core processors) with 4GB RAM and SAS (SCSI) HDD's and yet over our 100Mb/s LAN it takes 2.5 hours to move 1GB (~5000 emails) up to the server. It only takes 17 minutes for Thunderbird to import them from the .pst file. Is there any tools that can migrate pst folders into a users mailbox from the server itself?

ethoms wrote:
Whilst you are performing the migration, is the bottleneck Outlook,Thunderbird or Messaging Server i.e. are you seeing high CPU/I/O load
on the Messaging Server end or on the PC end?>
Bottleneck seems to be IMAP itself, or the performance of server, I have not checked the server's load whilst uploading. I would not know how to, in linux or Solaris Express I have 'top' command which would give me a rough idea. You can use the "prstat" command to check CPU utilisation.
In general I'm getting good performance from the comms suite, comms express is incredibly fast and normal usage of thick clients seems fine.The IMAP append operation which is used to copy emails using via the IMAP protocol is very write-I/O intensive as you need to write the actual message data and also perform multiple store database operations (new message, message IMAP flags). This means the speed and throughput of your I/O subsystem is essential.
You should always make sure that you have set the store.dbtmpdir configutil parameter to a temporary filesystem e.g.
# ./configutil -o store.dbtmpdir
/tmp/msg-mailstore1This will help to reduce I/O load.
I do find that Outlook is more sluggish than it was with POP accounts though, tbird is much better IMAP client IMHO.No argument here.
It seem sto me it's the hand-shaking that is taking the time, not the data transfer.The IMAP client shouldn't be reconnecting for each new email that is being copied so there is no additional "hand-shaking" after the first message.
In that respect I would guess that 1GB of data in 200 emails would upload much faster than 1GB of data in 5000 emails, but that's just a guess.I would expect the same as you would also have much fewer IMAP flag operations.
I notice that in the outlook connector configurator it does support conversion/uopload of "Microsoft POP accounts" as well as Exchange.It supports "MS POP profiles" i.e. MS Outlook configured to use a POP account.
When I install the connector of these accounts it sometimes manages to transfer the contacts and tasks to the server, but not the email folders. Is it possible I just need to tweak the configurator a little more?There is an option to enable the conversion/upgrade of "MS POP" and "MS IMAP" profiles in the User Profiles tab in the latest version of the Outlook Connector (7.3 update 1). Have you selected both of these options?

Shane.

Will there be a CLEAR bumper available for the iPhone 4?

Anyone know about a clear iPhone 4 bumper available in the US? I saw one online from a tech site in Europe, but they only ship to Europe and Asia... I figured if there was a clear bumper, we could still enjoy the look of the steel portions of the iPhone 4, and cover any weak spots of the antennae that might exist... Any thoughts? Might there be one available next week on apple.com when we have our choice of a bumper or 3rd party vender???

its not a bumper buy i bought a clear silicone "case" by incase called the "rain". it does have a pretty cool design on the back and the sides are see thru. i put my wifes black iphone 4 in it and i can still see the back of the iphone clearly as well as the metal antenna sides. just an option if you cant find a clear bumper...plus it provides more protection than a bumper...
