Looking methods of integration Windchill and SAP systems.

Please advice how Windchill ESI makes synchronization of information (bills of material (BOM), released parts, documents, engineering changes, drawings) with SAP ?

Hi,
I need to know the procedure for integrating SAP with Windchill using TIBCO adapter.
Is there any standard document for this..?
Thanks,

Integrating Portal and BI Systems

Hi All,
I am having an error on integrating Portal and BI systems. In Portal, when i navigate to the respective iview, i am being asked for my user name and password in a popup box (for the Web As server of the portal). After entering my password thrice, i get this error message.
Logon failed
What has happened?
Call of URL http://xxxx.yyyy.com:####/sap/bw/BEx terminated due to error in logon data.
Note
Logon performed in system XXX.
Logon performed for client 400, user DDIC, and language EN.
What can I do?
Check that you have entered the client, user, and password correctly.
If you do not yet have a user ID, contact your system administrator.

I entered the User ID and password for my portal server. i have a different user id and password in BI server. Please help

Hi,
That is incorrect. You have to enter BI user name and password. To avoid this popup, make sure user mapping is done for the BI system (with BI user name and password). You can also check these links for details.

Interface and SAP system issue

hi Experts
Scenario : We have External system (Interface) and SAP system. GR usually done in External system for stock materials PO , then it will transfered and updated in SAP system thro IDOC daily bases.
And then in SAP ,Zreport is there to find out any discrepancy in stocks(Between Extrnl and SAP system).
Problem: They had done GR in external system and they had transferred to SAP throu IDOC. (This usually bieing processed for 1000 of materials.
Now for some materials its showing discrepancy error in Zreport eventhough the SAP system got updated on stocks throu IDOC from external system. ( Not for all materials only for very few case).
So any experts has come across this kind situation in thier experiance .. how to solve this ??
Note : If any Bacth job is being done in background in SAP after updation the stocks in SAP system throu IDOC. How to find out the batch job in back groud ???
Thanks

hii
Thanks for ur response.
I did't mention in previous message, IDOC got posted in SAP system perfectly without any error . (I have cross checked IDOC).
But after idoc posting in SAP system , the Zreport getting updated , so here is my confusion and doubt.
Where there can be any system in background to update stocks in Zreport from SAP system. Is it possible to find from our side batch job has being processed between standard SAP and Zreport .
There is any way to find ???
Thanks

Cannot start widget - Ensure that SAP Business One Integration Service and SAP Business One Event Sender Service have been started

Dear Experts .
I'm trying to enable widget for my company db but getting the following error :
Ensure that SAP Business One Integration Service and SAP Business One Event Sender Service have been started; then wait 1 minute and try again
I can connect to the B1iF locally and remotely .
I have the db configured in the SLD and connects successfully .
I have the event sender service and proxy started and configured for the company db.
I can access the Dashboard web portal and login with database sap credentials (but I see nothing there)
I've checked that there are no duplicate entries in the SSLD table for SBO common (note : 1619422)
I've also tried to re-activate the xelcious from the B1iF->control.
My Setup :
I'm runing SBO server, B1iF installed locally and B1iSN installed on a 3rd party server.
I'm using B1iF as even forwarder for B1iSN.
I know this has been discussed many times through out the forum and I've tried most of the stuff other than clean install.
I would appreciate any input before removing B1iF completely and re-installing.
Thanks in advance ,
Nadav.

Integrating MDMP and Unicode systems with IDoc interfaces

Hi,
We are working on integrating SAP R/3 6.20 (MDMP) with SAP PI 7.0 SP10 (Unicode) system. The source will send MATMAS or CLFMAS IDocs with Thai / Japanese characters and PI should transform and post it to SAP ECC 5.0 Target system [IDoc to IDoc scenario].
( SAP R/3 Legacy 620 - Non-Unicode / MDMP ) |----> ( XI - Unicode) -> (ECC - Unicode)
Had a look at few SAP notes (745030 ,656350 and 613389) and it looks like there is no standard way/best practice to handle this scenario.
References:
1.PDF of TECHED Session ID: IM101 Dealing with Multi-Language Garbage?Data Lessons Learned
2.SAP Note 745030 - MDMP - Unicode Interface_Solution Overview.pdf
3.MDMP_Unicode_Transfer_final.doc from SAP Note 745030
4.SAP Note 656350 - Master Data Transfer UNICODE to MDMP Systems with ALE.pdf
5.SAP Note 613389 - ALE SAP system group with Unicode systems (Solution-2)
My understanding per SAP Notes: (Please correct me if I'm wrong)
a. For MDMP integraton we can't use Standard ALE Config instead we have to use Custom Configuration (IDoc collection setting in Partner profile &Scheduling RSEOUT002/RSEOUT00_MDMP and use Function module :IDOC_INBOUND_ASYNCHRONOUS_2 ).
b. The RFC Destinations should use proper logon langauage for correct MDMP IDoc transfer (For sending IDocs with Japanese character, the logon language should be JP).
c. If we want to transfer IDocs in more than one language we need to create multiple Partner profiles/RFC destinations each with specific logon language.
Please guide us in integrating these systems if you have done a similar integrations, following are my questions:
1] Is there any configuration change required at PI layer?
2] Do we need to install codepages in PI Unicode system for all languages used or Unicode system is capable of handling all the languages?
3] Is it necessary to install any SAP Add-on package in R/3 MDMP system inorder to support MDMP to Unicode data transfer?
3] If we want to send MATMAS/CLFMAS IDoc with Thai/Japanese characters from same system, what are the changes required at the Source system?
(Source may send MATMAS/CLFMAS IDoc with either Thai/Japanese characters but not both of them in a single IDoc)
4] Can we use regualr ALE & Partner profile settings for handling multi-byte characters or we need to use IDoc collection and RSEOUT002/RSEOUT00_MDMP report for transfer?
5] Is there any restrictions on the IDoc types (MATMAS,CLFMAS etc) supported in MDMP-Unicode integration solution.
5] Is there any best practice document available for this scenario?
6] Do we need to involve SAP AG for MDMP to Unicode system integrations(As per SAP Note: 656350) ?
Thanks and Regards,
Ananth

Hi Ananth,
as you have already mentioned, you need differents RFC destinations for each language. So you have to make sure, that the IDocs use the right destination according to there content.
If you have messages from PI to MDMP it is the same, you need different channels with different logon languages as well. You need an identifier in the message, that can be used for selecting the correct channel.
It should not be a restricting to any IDoc type, but it is not possible to post a message with different languages (which require different codepages) in one IDoc.
For correct conversion from a non unicode system to unicode, the codepages have to be installed in th OS of the PI server.

How to import the transports from the SAP Integration Kit into SAP system

Hi expert,
I read the forum "Re: Integration with SAP R/3 to realise i have not done the import of transport but i don't quite understand the statement give by "Sebastian Li".
"Unpack the SAP Integration Kit zip-file. It contains a transport-folder. Here you'll find a short manual which files you should import.
Copy the needed files on your sap-system in the correct folders:
- usr\sap\trans\cofiles
- usr\sap\trans\data
Use the transaction STMS.
Also take care of the sequence of importing. See the manual for details."
Can some one explain it in more details to me. I have unzip the SAP Integration Kit n in the transport folder got 2 more folder "ansi" and "unicode_compatible". How do i know which 1 to use? Where i should copy this files to?
Please advice.
thank you

The comunication between SLD and SAP systems.

Hi!
Here is a statement from SAP official document:
By copying the files slddest.cfg and slddest.cfg.key, you have configured TREX for integration in the System Landscape Directory (SLD).
TREX checks every five minutes whether anything has changed in the TREX system landscape and reports any changes automatically to the SLD server. If nothing has changed, TREX reports every twelve hours to the SLD server. This allows you to see that this landscape is still active.
I wonder whether all other SAP systems communicate with SLD in the same fashion as above? If NOT , what is different?
Thanks for clarification.

Hi,
This is how it exchanges data with ABAP and JAVA based systems -
"JCo RFC Provider for accessing SLD data from ABAP-based systems. SLD has a built-in API for Java-based systems that requires no manual configuration for JAVA based systems"

Crystal report and SAP system question

Hi,
I try to report off the SAP system using crystal reports without installation of the BOE server. But with very few knowledge of the SAP system, I am not clear of how and what to do. The following is what I have done:
1. From the client machine, I open the crystal report 2008
2. click "SAP" button and then click "Create New Report from a Query"
3. Select the system and enter the login user name/ password information
4. A dialog "Select Query for your Crystal Report" displayed.
    But under "Favorites", no entry found
    Under "Roles", no entry found
    Under infoAreas, there is a "Technical content" on top level and "Exchange Rate Type" is under it. I select this exchange rate type in the report, but it is an empty table.
If I use the same user name/ password to log on the SAPGUI, I am able to see lots of data.
Does anyone know what are the appropriate configuration steps to make the tables/views in the SAP system visible in the crystal reports? Could you please give me the details? Any help is appreciated.
Thanks,
Vicky

Hi,
are you trying to report on top of a BW query (mentioned in step 1 and 2) or you trying to create a report on top of tables (mentioned further down).

How to make interconnection between a legacy system and SAP system?

Hi Group,
I have a query on the interconnectivity between a legacy system( non-SAP ) and an SAP system.
The legacy provides data in the form of Files only.
my queries are as under:
1)
how can I make a connection to the Legacy from my SAP system?
2)
what are the different ways by which I can connect these 2 different systems?
3)
I hope there might be a chance of connecting the systems by way of using webservices, in this case what are the things I need to follow inorder to make the connection and get the data from legacy?
please provide me with necessary info on these queries to proceed further.
thanks in advance.
Regards,
Vishnu.

Hi,
U can use the GUI function m modules to fetch the data from legacy systems.
Also With the help of Remote FMs u can get connected to the SAP backgrounds from NON SAP background like Portal.XI is an interfacing tool used to connect 2 SAP or SAP to non SAP medium.

Approaches for Integration of non-SAP Systems in CE

Hello!
Sorry for this theoretical question but it is important fo me to know:
Is the use of Webservices the only way to integrate non-SAP Systems in a Process desinged with Netweaver BPM or are the other ways too? If yes, which are they? Is CE only designed for consuming Webservices?
Thank you all for your help.

Integrating LOTUS and SAP

Hello there. I'm not sure if this is the right forum to be posting in or not, but if it isn't, can someone please point me in the right direction.
Anyway, my question pertains to integrating SAP and Lotus to be interchangeable with one another. Currently I'm exporting information from SAP into an excel spreadsheet. I've successfully been able to load this information into a Lotus database from excel. However, I don't want to constantly have to keep taking information from SAP, putting it into a spreadsheet, and then upload it into the Lotus database to make it up-to-date. My goal is to have a query in SAP where I can go in and edit/add information there...then once I edit/add in SAP, the information on the Lotus database will be updated with out me ever having to go into Lotus to change anything. Can someone please explain to me how I can go about doing this? I hope I am being clear in my explanation. Thanks for the help in advance.

You'll have to ask the question at the LOTUS side too.
SAP can communicate with external softwares using files, RFC, web services, essentially (I probably forget a few ones).
For example, you could make a program in LOTUS that calls an RFC function module at SAP side. You have to install RFC SDK at LOTUS side to build your program. It is delivered in "many" languages: C, java, ... vba is also possible. See downloads at SAP marketplace, and RFC documentation in the abap library.

Is there a way to find all config changes between clients and sap system

We have our Dev system with clients
310 - Developer make changes and create transport
400 - Test client
410 - a copy of our Production system (over 1 year ago0
TST - this is our quality system with one client
101
Production system one client
101
I know if i do a database copy from Production to our TST system, both systems would be exact.
Abaper Director wants to know all the configuration changes that are different between Devopment client 310 - Test and production.
I told him that in development client 310 the abaper or functional users make most of the changes if they do not get transported they would be missing.
I cannot copy to client 310 otherwise we would loose all of our version management.
Is there another way that I can see the config changes between all these clients.
Thanks
Joe

New book about virtualization and SAP systems

Hi guys,
for all of you this may be of interest: there is a new book available, which contains a lot of stuff about virtualization. It is not only VMware, but also Hyper-V, Xen and Sun Solaris Zones. Unfortunately the book is only available in german.
It contains a good overview about each solution and how to use the virtualization solution for your SAP environment.
The book can be ordered on amazon, bol etc.
Regards
André

The book is good for beginners to help making a vendor decision and for intermediate users as an installation guide.
It basically walks the reader through the installation of VMware vSphere, Microsoft Hyper-V, SLES with Xen and Sun Solaris-Zones.
I personally would have preferred to see a little bit more about optimization, but it is definitely a good first release.
One word of warning: I ordered the book directly from SAP Press Germany and even though I got charged $25 for shipping it didn't arrive in prime condition. In fact all corners were bumped and there was also a minor cut across the side of the book. This seems to be caused by using a box for shipping that barely fits the book.
Regardless of the shipping experience I recommend the book if you can read German.
Cheers,
Jens

Adjustment of inventory between SAP and Legacy system

Hi Gurus,
Here is the scenario:
1) One plant within a company code is in SAP and the other plant in a same company code is still in legacy. Since both of them are Not in SAP, I cannot do an STO. But, ROH materials need to be moved from the legacy plant to the plant in SAP. I cannot treat the legacy plant as a Vendor, since we are Not paying them. But, still, we should make sure that the inventory needs to be devaulated by the monetary value of the goods taken out and the other inventory (plant in SAP) needs to be enriched by such monetary value.
2) Similar situation as above, but between 2 Company Codes of same controlling area. Here one Company Code is in SAP, other is in legacy, but, when the other company code will be in SAP, it will be under same controlling area. The two companies are under one business. Some type of intercompany transfer (netting) needs to be done. Here, I have to treat the legacy company as a Vendor.(but modifying bank details)
I understand, that it may not be possible in standard SAP, but what type of custom developments should I put up ? Any type of custom movement types? How should I set up the Vendor Master (in case of second scenario, the bank details to involve the netting thing).
Any type of information is very valuable and I would be indeed very grateful.
Thanks,
Kumar

For requirement 1, I suggest you keep track of the inventory acct for legacy and SAP system as separate acct to simplify reconciliation. Once this is done, you can use transaction MB1C movement 561 (or a copy of this movement type). This movement allows you to enter transaction amount in local currency as well; if this is not available, you can customize this through configuration for field selection of movement type (OMJJ). So through this posting, you can enter corresponding material, plant, quantity, and transaction amount that's passed from legacy system. In the account determination, you can set the opposite entry for inventory acct as the inventory acct from legacy system.
You can then setup an interface that periodically extract GI txn on legacy system, and another interface that performs BDC or call transaction on movement 561 (or a copy of this movement) on SAP system
