  • Lsmw Step by step procedure

    Hi Abap Gurus,
    I very new to abap and this site.
    Can any body provide the  step by step procedure in lsmw.
    I can give points to good answers.

    Hi rangamma,
    can U go through this info.
    Step-by-Step Guide for using LSMW to Update Customer Master Records
    Note! The screenprints in this article are from IDES Release 4.6. They may differ slightly in other versions.
    Call Legacy System Migration Workbench by entering transaction code LSMW. Every conversion task is grouped together as Project / Subproject / Object structure. Create a Project called LSMW_DEMO and a Subproject as CUSTOMERS and Object as CUST_REC as shown in Figure 1.
    Figure 1                Conversion Task with Project, Subproject and Object
    The main screen of LSMW provides wizard-like step-by-step tasks, as shown in Figure 2. To complete your data conversion, you need to execute these steps in sequence. Once a step is executed, the cursor is automatically positioned to the next step.
    Note that these steps may look different depending upon your Personal menu settings. You could make step numbers visible by ‘Numbers on’ icon or hidden by ‘Numbers off’ icon. You can execute a step by double-clicking on the row. Toggle icon ‘Doubleclick=Display’ or ‘Doubleclick=Edit’, makes the step in ‘display’ mode or ‘change’ mode.
    Figure 2 LSMW Wizard – initial screen
    Step 1: Maintain Object attributes
    In this example, you will be updating the customer master records with the help of recording a transaction (XD02). Choose radio button Batch Input Recording and click on the recording overview icon to record the R/3 transaction. Enter the Recording name as XD02_REC, the description as Customer Master Updates Recording, and the transaction code as XD02.
    Figure 3                Object type ‘Transaction Recording’
    The system calls the transaction code XD02 and prompts you to complete the Change
    Customer transaction, as shown in Figure 4. Enter the key customer information (I entered customer number 1000, sales organization 1000, distribution channel 01, and division 00) and choose ‘Sales’ view within ‘Sales area data’. Make changes to these three fields (I entered, sales office 1010, sales group 110, and customer group 01) and save the transaction.
    Figure 4                Transaction recording for Transaction Code ‘XD02’
    Once the transaction is completed, R/3 records the flow of screens and fields and saves the information, as shown in Figure 5.
    Default Values
    Field Names
    Figure 5                Transaction recording overview
    Note that the fields are populated with default values. The values you entered when you recorded the transaction are set by default.
    Note that if you have more fields in the recording than needed, you can remove them by clicking ‘Remove Screen field’ icon.
    Observe that the transaction-recording process stores field names in a technical format. By pressing the F1 key on individual screen fields and then pressing the F9 key, the system displays technical names. You then can replace the technical names with descriptive names. Double-click on the field RF02D-KUNNR and enter the name as KUNNR and the description as Customer Account Number and remove the default value. (See Figure 6.)
    Figure 6                Field attributes
    Similarly, double-click on all other fields with default values and make appropriate changes. Once you have made changes, the recording overview screen looks like what you see in Figure 7.
    Figure 7                Transaction Recording Overview – with screen field attributes
    Save your changes. When you go back to the initial screen, you will see that the initial screen steps have changed. Since you want to import data via the BDC method, the Direct Input and IDoc-related steps are hidden, as they are not relevant.
    Step 2. Maintain Source Structures
    Give a name and a description to the source structure (Figure 8). 
    Figure 8                Source Structure
    Step 3. Maintain Source Fields
    In this step, you need to list what fields are present in the source structure. The easiest way is to click on ‘Table Maintenance’ icon to enter Fieldname, Type and Length for each field  as shown in Figure 9. 
    Figure 9                Source fields of source Structure
    Note that your input file will have four fields as key fields and you need to update three fields in the system.
    Step 4: Maintain Structure Relations
    Execute a step to ‘Maintain Structure Relations’. (See Figure 10.) Since, there is only one Source and Target Structure, the relationship is defaulted automatically. 
    Figure 10  Structure Relation
    Step 5: Maintain field mapping and conversion rules
    Field RF02D-D0310 represents that you chose ‘Sales view’ for the customer Master screen accordingly its value should be set to X. Keep your cursor on field RF02D-D0310 and click on Constant rule icon to choose the constant value of ‘X’. 
    If your source file already has the field value, you choose rule ‘Source Field’. 
    Keep cursor on field ‘KUNNR’ and click on ‘Assign Source field’ icon to choose source field CUSTOMER from structure XD02S as shown in Figure 11.
    Figure 11 Assign source fields
    Similarly, assign ‘Source Field’ rules to the remaining fields. 
    Once all the fields are mapped, you should have an overview screen as shown in Figure 12.
    Figure 12 Field mapping and Conversion rules overview
    Step 6: Maintain fixed values, translations, user-defined routines
    You can also maintain re-usable translations and user-defined routines, which can be used across conversion tasks. In this case, that step is not required.
    Step 7: Specify files
    In this step, we define how the layout of the input file is. The input file is a [Tab] delimited with the first row as field names. It is present on my PC (local drive) as C:\XD02.txt. (See Figure 13.)
    figure 13 File attributes
    Create an Excel file (Figure 14) with your data and save it as a Tab-delimited text file on your local drive (C:\) and name it XD02.txt.
    Figure 14  Source data in Excel file (saved as Tab delimited file)
    Step 8: Assign files
    Execute step ‘Assign Files’ (Figure 15) and the system automatically defaults the filename to the source structure.
    Figure 15 Assign file to Source Structure
    Step 9: Read data
    In this step, LSMW reads the data (Figure 16) from the source file (from your PC’s local drive). You have the option to read only selected rows and convert data values to Internal format. 
    Figure 16 Read Data
    Step 10: Display read data
    This step (Figure 17) is optional. If required, you can review the field contents for the rows of data read.
    Figure 17 Display Read Data
    Step 11: Convert data
    This is the step that actually converts the source data (in source format) to a target format. Based on the conversion rules defined, source fields are mapped to target fields.
    Step 12: Display Converted data
    Again this is an optional step to view how the source data is converted to internal SAP format (Figure 18). 
    Figure 18 Display Converted Data
    Step 13: Create batch input session
    Once the source data is converted in an internal format, you can create a batch session to process updates (Figure 19). 
    Figure 19 Create Batch Input Session
    Step 14: Run Batch Input Session
    You can execute the BDC session by Run Batch input session. Executing a batch input session is a standard SM35 transaction for managing BDC sessions. Once you have successfully executed the batch input session, the customer master records are updated in the system. You can confirm this by viewing the customer master records (XD03).
    Note! Browsing thru these 14 steps, you may get a feeling that this is a very lengthy and time-consuming activity. However, for the purposes of demonstration, I have made it detailed. Although it looks lengthy, actually it takes hardly few hours from start-to-finish! After playing around with few simple LSMW scripts, you will find it so easy to change and create more complex ones.

  • Step by step instruction for Using LSMW Recoding method for Material Master

    Guys,
    Can some one explain step by step procedure for uploading the materials master data to R/3 by using LSMW Recoding method. By the time you reply I will go through the rule of uploading the data..
    Thanks guys,
    Dhanu.

    Hi,
    The Legacy System Migration Workbench (LSMW) is a tool recommended by SAP that you can use to transfer data once only or periodically from legacy systems into an R/3 System.
    The LSM Workbench covers the following steps:
    (1)Read the legacy data from one or several files (e.g. spreadsheet tables, sequential files)
    (2)Convert the data from source format to target format
    (3)Import the data using standard interfaces (Batch Input, Direct Input, BAPI, IDoc).
    The Steps for LSME are:
    Example: Customer Master upload:
    LSMW to Update Customer Master Records with Transaction Recording
    Call Legacy System Migration Workbench by entering transaction code LSMW. Every conversion task is grouped together as Project / Subproject / Object structure. Create a Project called LSMW_DEMO and a Subproject as CUSTOMERS and Object as CUST_REC
    Step 1: Maintain Object attributes
    In this example, you will be updating the customer master records with the help of recording a transaction (XD02). Choose radio button Batch Input Recording and click on the recording overview icon to record the R/3 transaction. Enter the Recording name as XD02_REC, the description as Customer Master Updates Recording, and the transaction code as XD02.
    Step 2. Maintain Source Structures
    Give a name and a description to the source structure
    Step 3. Maintain Source Fields
    In this step, you need to list what fields are present in the source structure. The easiest way is to click on u2018Table Maintenanceu2019 icon to enter Fieldname, Type and Length for each field
    Step 4: Maintain Structure Relations
    Execute a step to u2018Maintain Structure Relationsu2019. Since, there is only one Source and Target Structure, the relationship is defaulted automatically.
    Step 5: Maintain field mapping and conversion rules
    Field RF02D-D0310 represents that you chose u2018Sales viewu2019 for the customer Master screen accordingly its value should be set to X. Keep your cursor on field RF02D-D0310 and click on Constant rule icon to choose the constant value of u2018Xu2019.
    If your source file already has the field value, you choose rule u2018Source Fieldu2019.
    Keep cursor on field u2018KUNNRu2019 and click on u2018Assign Source fieldu2019 icon to choose source field CUSTOMER from structure XD02S
    Step 6: Maintain fixed values, translations, user-defined routines
    You can also maintain re-usable translations and user-defined routines, which can be used across conversion tasks. In this case, that step is not required.
    Step 7: Specify files
    In this step, we define how the layout of the input file is. The input file is a [Tab] delimited with the first row as field names. It is present on my PC (local drive) as C:\XD02.txt.
    Step 8: Assign files
    Execute step u2018Assign Filesu2019 and the system automatically defaults the filename to the source structure.
    Step 9: Read data
    In this step, LSMW reads the data from the source file (from your PCu2019s local drive). You have the option to read only selected rows and convert data values to Internal format.
    Step 10: Display read data
    This step is optional. If required, you can review the field contents for the rows of data read.
    Step 11: Convert data
    This is the step that actually converts the source data (in source format) to a target format. Based on the conversion rules defined, source fields are mapped to target fields.
    Step 12: Display Converted data
    Again this is an optional step to view how the source data is converted to internal SAP format
    Step 13: Create batch input session
    Once the source data is converted in an internal format, you can create a batch session to process updates.
    Step 14: Run Batch Input Session
    You can execute the BDC session by Run Batch input session. Executing a batch input session is a standard SM35 transaction for managing BDC sessions. Once you have successfully executed the batch input session, the customer master records are updated in the system. You can confirm this by viewing the customer master records (XD03).

  • I just replaced my hard drive and am trying to install the Snow Leppard OS on my Mac mini using the DVD's that came with the unit. Is there a step by step procedure that will guide me through this process?

    I just replaced my hard drive due to failure in my Mac mini. I am trying to load the Snow Leppard OS from the DVD's that came with the unit. Is there a step-by-step procedure somewhere that would help me? This is my first problem with my first Mac. I thought getting to the hard drive and changing it would be the hard part but I made it through that with little trouble. My lack of software experience on the Mac is really slowing me down. I believe I'm not making the right choices in the Disk Utility program.Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

    Prep the new drive:
    Drive Preparation
    1.  Boot from your OS X Installer Disc. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button.  When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu.
    2. After DU loads select your hard drive (this is the entry with the mfgr.'s ID and size) from the left side list. Note the SMART status of the drive in DU's status area.  If it does not say "Verified" then the drive is failing or has failed and will need replacing.  SMART info will not be reported  on external drives. Otherwise, click on the Partition tab in the DU main window.
    3. Under the Volume Scheme heading set the number of partitions from the drop down menu to one. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Options button, set the partition scheme to GUID then click on the OK button. Click on the Partition button and wait until the process has completed.
    4. Select the volume you just created (this is the sub-entry under the drive entry) from the left side list. Click on the Erase tab in the DU main window.
    5. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Options button, check the button for Zero Data and click on OK to return to the Erase window.
    6. Click on the Erase button. The format process can take up to several hours depending upon the drive size.
    Upon completion quit DU and return to the installer. Install OS X. When the installation has completed you can proceed to restore your data from your backups. If you have an existing backup from Time Machine or another hard drive then upon completing the Setup Assistant you will have an option to restore from another Mac, a TM backup, or another drive. Use the appropriate option.

  • Step by step procedure for Upgrade to ECC6.0

    Hi,
    I gained a lot from this forum . Can someone please mail me at
    [email protected]
    step by step procedure for upgrade .
    Will award full points for helpful documents..
    With regards,
    Mrinal

    SAP defined a roadmap for upgrade.
    1) Project Preparation
    Analyze the actual situation
    Define the objectives
    Create the project plan
    Carry out organizational preparation for example identify the project team
    2)Upgrade Blueprint
    The system and components affected
    The mapped business processes
    The requirements regarding business data
    3)Upgrade Realization -- In this phase the solution described in the design phase is implemented in a test environment. This creates a pilot system landscape, in which the processes and all their interfaces can be mapped individually and tested on the functional basis.
    4)Final Preparation for Cutover -- Testing, Training, Minimizing upgrade risks, Detailed upgrade planning
    5)Production Cutover and Support
    The production solution upgrade
    Startup of the solutions in the new release
    Post processing activities
    Solving typical problems during the initial operation phase.
    SAP expects at least 2 to 3 months for Upgrade and that again depends on project scope and complexity and various other factors.
    STEPS IN TECHNICAL UPGRADE
    •     Basis Team will do the prepare activities. (UNIX, BASIS, DBA).
    •     Developer need to run the Transaction SPDD which provides the details of SAP Standard Dictionary objects that have been modified by the client. Users need to take a decision to keep the changes or revert back to the SAP Standard Structure. More often decision is to keep the change. This is mandatory activity in upgrade and avoids data loses in new system.
    •     After completing SPDD transaction, we need to run SPAU Transaction to get the list of Standard SAP programs that have been modified.  This activity can be done in phases even after the upgrade. Generally this will be done in same go so that your testing results are consistent and have more confident in upgrade.
    •     Run SPUMG Transaction for Unicode Conversion in non-Unicode system. SPUM4 in 4.6c.
    •     Then we need to move Z/Y Objects.  Need to do Extended programming check, SQL trace, Unit testing, Integration testing, Final testing, Regression Testing, Acceptance Testing etc.,
    The main Category of Objects that needs to be Upgraded is –
    •     Includes
    •     Function Groups / Function Modules
    •     Programs / Reports
    •     OSS Notes
    •     SAP Repository Objects
    •     SAP Data Dictionary Objects
    •     Domains, Data Elements
    •     Tables, Structures and Views
    •     Module Pools, Sub Routine pools
    •     BDC Programs
    •     Print Programs
    •     SAP Scripts, Screens
    •     User Exits
