Key Differences in ECC 6.0 and 4.6C with respect to SAP SD Module

Dear All,
I would like to know the know the Key Differences in ECC 6.0 and 4.6C with respect to SAP SD Module. I have already gone throught the release notes and
upgrade erp in service.sap.com. I have also checked solution browser.
Its Urgent.
Regards,
Rakesh

Hi Rakesh,
Some of the differences are:
1. Document Flow
In ECC 6.0, The flow of sales documents is seen much better and improved as compared to 4.6C. Once You look at the screen, You will clearly figure out the difference.
2. Sales Order Look and Feel
There are more tabs in ECC 6.0 for Item Level Details.
The Sales Doc. appears as supremely perfect.
3. ECC 6.0 is built on NetWeaver Technology (that possess SOA i.e. service oriented architecture) , Hence more reliable and Improved as compared to previous one.
Hope this will help you. Reward if found useful
Regards,
Gaurav Raghav

Difference between ECC 6.0 and earlier versions

Hi,
one of the difference between ECC 6.0 and earlier versions is that instead 'WS_UPLOAD' and 'WS_DOWNLOAD' in ECC we should use 'GUI_UPLOAD' and 'GUI_DOWNLOAD' respectively.
(of course SPDD and SPRO tcodes is known by everone i suppose)
Similarly can u all put down some differences here, atleast one entry by each, I think we can make a good docu. I have searched the net for the differences but could not get much, so by each of us contributing one each, it would become good docu..for all of us.
Thanx in advance

Unicode Errors Encountered and their Solutions
E1. In u201CTEXT MODEu201D the u201CENCODINGu201D addition must be specified.
     Error:
     OPEN DATASET FILE FOR OUTPUT IN TEXT MODE.
     Solution:
     OPEN DATASET FILE FOR OUTPUT IN LEGACY TEXT MODE.
E2. In Unicode, DESCRIBE DISTANCE can only be used with the IN BYTE MODE or IN
      CHARACTER MODE addition.
     Error:
     DESCRIBE DISTANCE BETWEEN T_KOMK AND T_KOMK-HIEBO01 INTO BPOS.
     Solution:
DESCRIBE DISTANCE BETWEEN T_KOMK AND T_KOMK-HIENR01 INTO BPOS
IN CHARACTER MODE.
E3. u201CUSR02-UFLAGu201D must be a byte-type field (Typ X or XSTRING )
     Error:
     IF USR02-UFLAG O YULOCK.
     Solution: Since the data type of USR02-UFLAG is type INT and is compared with data type
                X u2013 Hence the error. So we define a new variable ZULOCK and assign the
                value of USR02-UFLAG to ZULOCK.
              New variable
              DATA: ZULOCK(1) TYPE X.   "APBRP00
              Assign value
                            ZULOCK = USR02-UFLAG.
        Compare -
               IF ZULOCK = YULOCK.   u201Creplace IF USR02-UFLAG O YULOCK.
E4. HT cannot be converted to a Character type field
Error :
WRITE ht TO t_data+10(2).
Solution : Since the data type of ht is a type u2018Xu2019 and the data is been transfer to
         t_data which has a data type u2018Cu2019. value of one data type cannot be copy to
         another data type where one of them is type string .Hence the error occur,
         so the data type of ht is been change to Type u2018Cu2019
     OR
           A Tab ( value 09 ) is introduced as part of the row. The value 09 is not converted in Unicode environment. Instead we need to use class
     Error:
          DATA: BEGIN OF ht,
               x(1) TYPE x VALUE '09',
          END OF ht.
     Solution:
              Define Class after the Tables definition.
                   CLASS cl_abap_char_utilities DEFINITION LOAD.
              Data Defination : Comment internal table HT and define a variable HT type C.
       *   Insert + APRIA00 05/02/2007 Unicode project
       *   DATA: BEGIN OF ht,
     *         x(1) TYPE x VALUE '09'
       *   END OF ht.
     *   Insert - APRIA00 05/02/2007 Unicode project
       DATA HT type C.
       Before using HT assign Horizontal tab.
                 Ht = CL_ABAP_CHAR_UTILITIES=>HORIZONTAL_TAB.
E5. In Unicode programs the u201C#u201D cannot appear in names, as it is does here in the name    u201C#LINESu201D
     Error :
     #LINES                 TYPE I,
     Solution : Since the # is used in the start of name, it is not allowed. We need to
              remove it.
     Solution for the above
     V_LINES                 TYPE I,
E6. In u201CTEXT MODEu201D the u201CENCODINGu201D addition must be specified as well as the addition was required FOR OUTPUT,FOR INPUT, FOR APPENDING OR FOR UPDATE was expected.
     Error:
     OPEN DATASET PATH_NAME IN TEXT MODE.
     Solution:
     Download =     OPEN DATASET PATH_NAME FOR OUTPUT IN LEGACY TEXT MODE.
     Upload        = OPEN DATASET AUSZUG-FILE IN TEXT MODE FOR INPUT ENCODING DEFAULT.
E7. u201CTABu201D must be a character-type data object( data type C,N, D, T or String). Field string)
     Error:
            data: begin of tab,                   "Excel Parameter Split at TAB
        t type x value '09',          "Tabulator
       end of tab.
            concatenate 'Material' 'Package Status'
                into z_download-line separated by tab.
            ( In the above command the two field are to be separated with a horizontal Tab. The earlier      way of assigning the tab value u201809u2019 will not work in Unicode environment.
     Solution:
     Define a class just after the Table defination.
          CLASS cl_abap_char_utilities DEFINITION LOAD.
            Define variable Tab as shown below :
          Data : TAB           TYPE C.
     Before the concatenate statement assign the value of Tab using pre-defined attributes.
          TAB = CL_ABAP_CHAR_UTILITIES=>HORIZONTAL_TAB.
E8. Upload/Ws_Upload and Download/Ws_Download are obsolete, since they are not Unicode-
      enabled; use the class cl_gui_frontend_services

Key Differences between Essbase System 9 and 11

Hi,
I understand that there are several architectural underpinnings that are different between system 9 and system 11. The other day a business user asked me to point out key differences between system 9 and 11.
the first thing that jumped at me was the thin client architecture, where you dont have to install EAS or Studio on to user system..
Can anyone help me tabulate the key differences interms of end user functionality and in terms of developer interfaces.
any inputs would be really appreciated.
Thanks in advance

Hi,
Here are some things I particularly like about System11 Essbase
<li>Ability to store text and dates as measure values (intersection data)
<li>Lifecycle Management & Lifecycle Management API
<li>Single click backup and restore
<li>Attributes that can be changed over time to preserve historical data
<li>ASO Maxl data slice clearing & inversion
<li>Ability to use Environment Variables
<li>Implied Share override
<li>@DateDiff and @DatePart
Here is a comprehensive list of the System 11 new features:

SAP ECC 6.0 and EHP5 Installation with DIMP functionatilty

Hi Frineds,
We are installaing ECC6.0 and EHP5 fresh installation and looking for DIMP functionality too active in the system.
If we do only installation only Central Application Usage type then we can directly install EHP5 system (Central Application consist of SAP_APPL & EA-APPL).
But My question can we get the DIMP also after this installation type or we need to first install ECC6.0 and then upgrade EHP to get the DIMP function..I have not seen this answer any where in the guide or in SDN...
Thanks.

Hi Manas,
ECC-DIMP is a add-on to ECC so you can install this add-on or perform a delta upgrade.
Relevant installation and support packages are available on SAP Service Marketplace.
Check Note 874473 - Release strategy for ECC-DIMP as of ECC 6.0
Many Thanks.

Csv file reading and voltage and current plotting with respect to time samples XY plotting

Hallo,
I've been struggling with reading a comma separated value (csv) file from another instrument (attached). I need to plot this data for analysis. I have 5 column of data with numbers of rows, the first three row is the information of the measurement. I want to read 4th row as string and rest of the row as numbers. I want to plot 2nd column (i1) with respect to TIMESTAMP; 4th column(u2) wrt TIMESTAMP. And finally plotting i1 (x-axis) vs.. u2 (y-axis) in labview. Could anyone help me.
In excel its so easy to plot but I don't know how its done in labview.
Attachments:
labview forum test.csv ‏30 KB
excel plot.jpg ‏88 KB

Start by opening the file. Then use the Read Text File function. You can right-click on it and configure it to read lines. First make it read 3 lines (this is your extra header data). Then make it read a single line. That will give you your channel names. Then read the rest of the file (disable the read by line and wire a -1 into the number of bytes to read). Then use the Spreadsheet String to Array function to give you your data.
I would recommend going through the LabVIEW tutorials if you are really new at this.

Upgrade -- Sort sequence difference in ECC 6.0 and 4.7

Hello friends,
We are in an upgrade project where the upgrade is from 4.7 version to ECC 6.0 version.
We are facing few problems on sort when testing our Z developments.
Suppose the internal table in the program has fields A, B and C.
We are using the sort statement --> sort itab by A.
In 4.7, the sort statement sorts the internal table first by A and there is no specific sequence followed for B or C.
Whereas in ECC 6.0, the sort happens by A followed by B and C.
So, the final result is, for the user, the output appears different, although the data is the same.
Please let me know how can we make the output in ECC 6.0 appear as in 4.7.
Thanks & Regards
Swapnil

Hello Swapnil,
Check for the SORT keyword in transaction abapdocu. You may see the changes made to the functionality in the newer versions.
Thank You,
