Is there a SAP standard way of dl/up G/L accounts master data?

I was asked to create a download program to get the G/L account master data from one server and create an upload program to automatically create the G/L accounts.
Download: Access SKAT, SKA1, SKB1 -> save to spreadsheet
Upload: Batch input or maybe read up on how to do it using LSMW.
Halfway in making my the program, it occured to me that maybe SAP has a standard way of doing this?
Tried to search for it. Found FS15/FS16.
Would these do it? How do they work?
*Both source and target systems are running SAP 4.7

NO! fs15-16 is for two servers
1)fill field filename in fs15
example '0001'
2) transfer file per ftp
from /sapmnt/XXX/global/FBIS0001
to oth. server same directory and filename
with XXX = sy-sysid
3)and use the same file in fs16 0001

Is there a FM to create GL account master data ?

Instead of the BI based report RFBISA00 I would prefere to use a FM or BAPI.
Does anybody know such a FM?
Thank in advance

hi Oleg / expert

What r the ways to reduce the load time of master data

Hi
The full load of the master data load IP is taking 18hr to 2 days loading on average 2516360 Records
Is their any option to reduce load time as its causing data base lock and impacting transports(other than data selection)
Thanks in advance
Anuj

You will have to do some research. What MD extractor are you talking about?
Test on R/3 system: First try to extract a considerable amount of records via transaction RSA3 in R/3 (10.000 or 100.000). Keep the time that it takes.
Extract the same into BW but only into PSA. Again measure the time.
Load data from PSA into datatarget and see how long this takes. You should now have a picture on where the performance problems are located.
Is the performance also bad for small loads or is there a boundary before which performance is ok. (in other words, is loading 200.000 records ten times longer then loading 20.000 records?)
Suspect the following in R/3:
- datasource enhancements in R/3. A redesign may improve your extraction in a big way.
- missing indexes. If you are extracting data from tables without proper indexes the extraction performance can be dramatic.
Suspect the following if loading to PSA is bad:
- Datapackage reads data in small chunks (much smaller than 50000 records). Overhead causes more time than the actual data transport.
- Network problems. Maybe the network is congested by other servers?
If loading from PSA to datatarget is slow:
- Check start routines for performance.
- Are enough batch partitions available? Sometimes activation of ODS can be improved by more parallel processes.
- Are you using a lot masterdata-lookups when filling the datatargets?
When you report you findings in this forum we may be able to help you further.

Is there any SAP standard CAF?

Hi, CAF experts.
I'm wondering there is any CAF created by SAP, like ESS/MSS.
Does SAP make any CAF-based application?
Thanks in advance for all your answers.

Hi
I am not sure if SAP has released entire business package based on CAF but there is one application called Life and Work Events within ESS which uses CAF.

Is there any SAP Standard programe to posr cost centers in LSMW

Hi
Is there any Direct input or Batchinput programe to load cost centers
by using LSMW

No. Also a note that these tables store data in a different way. Meaning that if say for a material , period and plant combination (primary keys of tables) the value of stock has not changed then there will be no entry in these history tables. So usually you would need to write a Function module to read these tables and populate values accordingly for BW reports to make sense.
Hope this helps.

There should be a way to easly switch between wifi and cellular data

I think apple should put wifi icon and cellular data icon on the notification bar so we can change between them easily or even closing them both. So other smart phone like Samsung did it from a long time and its really easier way so Apple as the greatest company in the smart phones field should do something for this ..

Read http://www.apple.com/ios/ios7/features/ and in particular the section on control centre. Maybe that does it for you but you will have to wait until Sep/Oct for the public release

Do you trust the SAP standard rule set ?

Hello all,
I have the impression that, too often, the SAP standard ruleset has been taken for granted : upload, generate and use. Here is a post as to why not to do so. Hopefuly, this will generate a interesting discussion.
As I have previously stated in other threads, you should be very careful accepting the SAP standard rule set without reviewing it first. Before accepting it, you should ensure that your specific SAP environment has been reflected in the functions. The 2 following questions deal with this topic :
1. what is your SAP release ? ---> 46C is different than ECC 6.0 in terms of permissions to be included in the function permission tab. With every SAP release, new authorization objects are linked to SAP standard tcodes. Subsequently some AUTHORITY-CHECK statements have been adapted in the ABAP behind the transaction code. So, other authorizations need to provided from an implementation point of view (PFCG). And thus, from an audit perspective (GRC-CC), other settings are due when filtering users' access rights in search for who can do what in SAP.
2. what are your customizing settings and master data settings ? --> depending on these answers you will have to (de)activate certain permissions in your functions. Eg. are authorization groups for posting periods, business areas, material types, ... being used ? If this is not required in the SAP system and if activated in SAP GRC function, then you filter down your results too hard, thereby leaving certain users out of the audit report while in reality they can actually execute the corresponding SAP functionality --> risk for false negatives !
Do not forget that the SAP standard ruleset is only an import of SU24 settings of - probably - a Walldorf system. That's the reason SAP states that the delivered rule set is a starting point.
So, the best practice is :
a. collect SAP specific settings per connector in a separate 'questionnaire' document, preferably structured in a database
b. reflect these answers per function per connector per action per permission by correctly (de)activating the corresponding permissions for all affected functions
You can imagine that this is a time-consuming process due to the amount of work and the slow interaction with the Java web-based GRC GUI. Therefore, it is a quite cumbersome and at times error-prone activity ...... That is, in case you would decide to implement your questionnaire answers manually. There are of course software providers on the market that can develop and maintain your functions in an off-line application and generate your rule set so that you can upload it directly in SAP GRC. In this example such software providers are particularly interesting, because your questionnaire answers are structurally stored and reflected in the functions. Any change now or in the future can be mass-reflected in all (hundreds / thousands of) corresponding permissions in the functions. Time-saving and consistent !
Is this questionnaire really necessary ? Can't I just activate all permissions in every function ? Certainly not, because that would - and here is the main problem - filter too much users out of your audit results because the filter is too stringent. This practice would lead too false negatives, something that auditors do not like.
Can't I just update all my functions based on my particular SU24 settings ? (by the way, if you don't know what SU24 settings are, than ask your role administrator. He/she should know. ) Yes, if you think they are on target, yes you can by deleting all VIRSA_CC_FUNCPRM entries from the Rules.txt export of the SAP standard rule set, re-upload, go for every function into change mode so that the new permissions are imported based on your SU24 settings. Also, very cumbersome and with the absolute condition that you SU24 are maintained excellent.
Why is that so important ? Imagine F_BKPF_GSB the auth object to check on auth groups on business areas within accounting documents. Most role administrator will leave this object on Check/Maintain in the SU24 settings. This means that the object will be imported in the role when - for example - FB01 has been added in the menu. But the role administrator inactivates the object in the role. Still no problem, because user doesn't need it, since auth groups on business areas are not being used. However, having this SU24 will result in an activated F_BKPF_GSB permission in your GRC function. So, SAP GRC will filter down on those users who have F_BKPF_GSB, which will lead to false negatives.
Haven't you noticed that SAP has deactivated quite a lot of permissions, including F_BKPF_GSB ? Now, you see why. But they go too far at times and even incorrect. Example : go ahead and look deeper into function AP02. There, you will see for FB01 that two permissions have been activated. F_BKPF_BEK and F_BKPF_KOA. The very basic authorizations needed to be able to post FI document are F_BKPF_BUK and F_BKPF_KOA. That's F_BKPF_BUK .... not F_BKPF_BEK. They have made a mistake here. F_BKPF_BEK is an optional auth object (as with F_BKPF_GSB) to check on vendor account auth groups.
Again, the message is : be very critical when looking at the SAP standard rule set. So, test thoroughly. And if your not sure, leave the job to a specialized firm.
Success !
Sam

Sam and everyone,
Sam brings up some good points on the delivered ruleset. Please keep in mind; however, that SAP has always stated that the delivered ruleset is a starting point. This is brought up in sap note 986996     Best Practice for SAP CC Rules and Risks. I completely agree with him that no company should just use the supplied rules without doing a full evaluation of their risk and control environment.
I'll try to address each area that Sam brings up:
1. Regarding the issue with differences of auth objects between versions, the SAP delivered rulset is not meant to be version specific. We therefore provide rules with the lowest common denominator when it comes to auth object settings.
The rules were created on a 4.6c system, with the exception of transactions that only exist in higher versions.
The underlying assumption is that we want to ensure the rules do not have any false negatives. This means that we purposely activate the fewest auth objects required in order to execute the transaction.
If new or different auth object settings come into play in the higher releases and you feel this results in false positives (conflicts that show that don't really exist), then you can adjust the rules to add these auth objects to the rules.
Again, our assumption is that the delivered ruleset should err on the side of showing too many conflicts which can be further filtered by the customer, versus excluding users that should be reported.
2. For the customizing settings, as per above, we strive to deliver rules that are base level rules that are applicable for everyone. This is why we deliver only the core auth objects in our rules and not all. A example is ME21N.
If you look at SU24 in an ECC6 system, ME21N has 4 auth objects set as check/maintain. However, in the rules we only enable one of the object, M_BEST_BSA. This is to prevent false negatives.
3. Sam is absolutely right that the delivered auth object settings for FB01 have a mistake. The correct auth object should be F_BKPF_BUK and not F_BKPF_BEK. This was a manual error on my part. I've added this to a listing to correct in future versions of the rules.
4. Since late 2006, 4 updates have been made to the rules to correct known issues as well as expand the ruleset as needed. See the sap notes below as well as posting Compliance Calibrator - Q2 2008 Rule Update from July 22.
1083611 Compliance Calibrator Rule Update Q3 2007
1061380 Compliance Calibrator Rule Update Q2 2006
1035070 Compliance Calibrator Rule Update Q1 2007
1173980 Risk Analysis and Remediation Rule Update Q2 2008
5. SAP is constantly working to improve our rulesets as we know there are areas where the rules can be improved. See my earlier post called Request for participants for an Access Control Rule mini-council from January 28, 2008. A rule mini-council is in place and I welcome anyone who is interested in joining to contact me at the information provided in that post.
6. Finally, the document on the BPX location below has a good overview of how companies should review the rules and customize them to their control and risk environment:

SAP Standard Workflow for REFUNDS in FS-CD

Hi
We have a requirement to implement SAP Workflow in Financial Services Collections & Disbursements (FS-CD) module for REFUNDS Approval.
Is there any SAP standard Workflow available to meet the requirement?
How to find the Standard SAP workflows available for different Modules (MM, SD, PM, FI, FS-CD etc)?
Correct answers will be rewarded with points.
Thanks
Nikhil.B

Just to add:
The error that I am encountering in the second run/cycle for the PR approval workflow is Import container contains errors (are any obligatory elements missing?)
Basically, WS20000077 will be executed if an approval level is seen. Once the approval is made, then the workflow is also completed. However, for multiple approvers, I only get to execute successfully the first level approval. The succeeding levels are encountering errors as stated above

Any standard way of making sure a file name is valid

Hi everyone,
I would like to say thanks to all who participate in this forum because it is one of the most important part of the java community.
I am having some problems with a desktop application that am workin on at this time. Having a small window that allows the user of the application to use a JFileChooser to choose a directory (Directory only option enabled) where they want to store there file and also a JTextField that allows the user to enter the file name they wish the file to be called, I am having problem when the user enters a file name with characters that are not allowed in a file.
I was wondering if there is a standard way of validating file names across several platform or does anybody have any tips and tricks for getting around this problem.
Thanks in advance
Franklini

matches() takes in a regular expression- the regular expression in the code snippet above will catch any combination of those characters (one correction though- it should be getName() rather than getAbsolutePath() because getAbsolutePath will always have a : and a \ in it).
try something like the below code, which will keep prompting until you cancel or put in a valid name:
 while(returnVal == JFileChooser.APPROVE_OPTION &&
 file.getName().matches(".*[\\/:*?|<>\"].*") ){
 JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(null,
 "The filename " + file.getAbsolutePath() + " is invalid.",
 "Save As Error",
 JOptionPane.ERROR_MESSAGE);
 returnVal = fileChooser.showSaveDialog(null);
 if (returnVal == JFileChooser.APPROVE_OPTION) {
 file = fileChooser.getSelectedFile();
 }

SAP standard program to delimits infotypes

Hi folks,
 Is there any SAP standard program to delimits the records in HR? I mean for PA/PD infotype. Or I need to write one? I have to delimits some of the IT`s Like 194 and 185...
I found the following program to delimit
RPU204M0 IT 204: delimit report for FA customers
RPU510J1 Utility program to delimit P0008 after pay sclae re-creation
Thanks

Hi Saquib
There is one standard report called RHGRENZ2 which will delimt PD infotypes...
The report only delimits infotypes with time constraint 2 and 3. Infotypes with time constraint 0 and 1 must be delimited using the report Delimit Objects (RHGRENZ0).
Hi I don't see any Standard SAP program to delimit the infotypes that were specified in your message. I believe you may need to write small BDC program to delimit....
Thanks
Thanks

SAP STANDARD REPORT FOR CHANGES IN VF12

Hello Sap guru,
Is there any sap standard table or t.code for below informations
u2022 Customer code
u2022 Customer name
u2022 Newly added pricing conditions (via VK11)
u2022 Change(s) made in pricing conditions (via VK12)
u2022 date change was made
u2022 if possible: old details and new details
kindly suggest
Regards
Deepak Garg

Hi,
You have lists for conditions with tcode V/LD and you can create your own list for conditions with tcode V/LA and V/LB (V/LC to view them), but I think that this solution doesn't satisfied your requirement. I think that you need a development because you need data in tables CDPOS/CDHDR (modifications) for object COND_A.
I hope this helps you

SAP standard transactions for missing parts

Hi!!! Friends,
Is there any SAP standard transaction (s) or procedure (s) which will give the list of missing components/ parts per sales order, process order, stock transfer, projects, subcontracting apart from V_V2, CO24 & ME2O standard transactions?

Hi ,
As per me there is no other transaction. CO24 solves the purpose of missing part list view for projects more effectively.
