Micorsoft office upgrade 2010 - pre-requisitions in SAP ECC ?

Hello Users,
I have a question.
We have an SAP ECC 6.0 system. And we are using MS office 2003.
Now we are planning to upgrade the MS office 2003 to MS office 2010.
What are the pre requisitions needed to have offcie 2010 compatible with the current ECC version (ECC 6.0).
Also, should there be an upgrade in the GUI version ? like to 7.2? this was recommended.
Please suggest and comment on what should be done.
Regards,
Suraj S Nair

Hi,
MS Office 2010 is supported from SAP GUI version 720 only. So, you need to upgrade SAP GUI. Check SAP Note 722513 - Desktop Office Integration: Maintenance information for more information.
Thanks

What are the pre requisites for SAP SRM7.0 DB Rrefresh?

Hi,
What are the pre requisites for SRM DB Rrefresh?
Thanks

Hello Peter,
When it comes to DB refresh you need to know what all the client dependent data which needs to be retained.
For example you need RFC connections, Variants, User master etc.
As a pre task of Database refresh you may need to export the tables which are related to this so that once the database is refreshed you need to import them.
Ensure the proper backup of production database is available. Also check all the STMS configurations which need to be retained again.
Make sure that you need to have enough disk space which can accommodate your production data in to the pre production system.
These are some of the general consideration one needs to have but again it depends on the environment on which one runs SAP systems.

Pre-Requisite for SAP BPC certification

Dear Gurus,
Hope you all are good. I am an ABAPER. I want to do SAP BPC certification. Can somebody tell what kind of functional and technical knowledge is required for this certification or to work in BPC. Some told me you need a strong FI/CO knowledge for tis certification some say you need BW technical knowledge for this. I will be highly appreciatibe if someone tells me the pre-requisites or basics in percentage. Can ABAPER moves toward BPC?
My second question is what is the job demand for SAP BPC?
Thanks in advance.
Regards

Saida,
Where did you get the information from that "you have to select in which version you need a certification, there may be 2 seperate test for those two" ???
Look at the link below for SAP BPC Certification C_EPMBPC_10.
https://training.sap.com/shop/certification/c_epmbpc_10-sap-certified-application-associate---sap-business-planning-and-consolidation-100-g/certification-details/
It clearly states that candidate needs to have knowledge on both versions -
It validates that the Associate Consultant has a good sound knowledge and understanding of SAP Business Planning and Consolidation in SAP Business Planning and Consolidation 10.0, version for SAP NetWeaver and SAP Business Planning and Consolidation 10.0, version for the Microsoft platform.

Pre requisites for installing SAP Router

Hi Friends,
As i am going through the implementation phase, I have to install sap router which i am new at. Also i am doing it because i have to connect Maintenance Optimizer to Sap service Market place for which Router would be essentially required.
I have some questions to put forth.
1. what are the pre requisites for SAP Router
2. Do we require Public IP and what would be the use of this ip
3. how to configure the SAP Router
4. Can i install the SAP router on the same host on which we have Solution manager, is it advisable. or we should go for a seperate host.

Installing the sapcrypto library and starting the SAProuter
Contents
u2022     Downloading necessary software components from SAP Service Marketplace
u2022     Creating the certificate request
u2022     Additional actions necessary before you can start saprouter
This section describes the necessary steps to download and install the sapcrypto library for use with saprouter. The saprouter must be started with the options described later in this section.
The license for the sapcrypto library covers saprouter connections between saprouters at SAP and the first saprouter on customer sites and backend connections within the customer`s network. For all other purposes the library CANNOT be used!
Downloading necessary software components from SAP Service Marketplace
1.     Login to the SAP Service Marketplace with the Service Marketplace USERID which is assigned to your installation.
2.     Change to the alias SAPROUTER-SNCADD. Before you can download the software components two preconditions must be met.
     a.     You must have been allowed to download the software. This authorization is added as soon as SAP has received a positive statement from the "Bundesausfuhramt". This procedure is necessary since the software falls under EU regulations.
     b.     For more information on how to obtain authorization if download is not possible see note 397175.
     c.     You must accept that you must follow the regulations imposed by the EU on the use and distribution of the cryptographic software components downloaded from the SAP Service Marketplace.
3.     The acceptance of the terms and conditions is logged with your USERID and stored for reporting purposes to the "Bundesausfuhramt".
4.     Accepting with the button on the web-based form takes you to the folder where you can download the Software components.
These are packed into a single CAR file sapcrypto.car
5.     Copy the file to the direcory where the saprouter executable is located
6.     You can get the file car.exe/sapcar.exe, which is necessary to unpack the archive from any Installation Kernel CD.
Executing the command car -xvf SAPCRYPTO.CAR will unpack the following files:
[lib]sapcrypto.[dll|so|sl]
sapgenpse[.exe]
ticket
Creating the certificate request
1.     As user <snc>adm set the environment variables
SECUDIR = <directory_of_saprouter>
2.     Change to the Shortlink SAPROUTER-SNCADD. From the list of SAProuters registered to your installation, choose the relevant "Distinguished Name"
3.     Generate the certificate Request with the command
sapgenpse get_pse -v -r certreq -p local.pse "<Your Distinguished Name>"
4.     Alternatively use the two commands:
sapgenpse get_pse -v -noreq -p local.pse "<Your Distinguished Name>"
sapgenpse get_pse -v -onlyreq -r certreq -p local.pse
5.     Display the output file "certreq" and with copy&paste insert the certificate request into the text area of the same form on the SAP Service Marketplace from which you copied the Distinguished Name
6.     In response you will receive the certificate signed by the CA in the Service Marketplace, cut&paste the text to a local file named srcert
7.     With this in turn you can install the certificate in your saprouter by calling
sapgenpse import_own_cert -c srcert -p local.pse
8.     now you will have to create the credentials for the SAProuter with the same program (if you omit -O <user>, the credentials are created for the logged in user account)
sapgenpse seclogin -p local.pse -O <user_for _saprouter>
9.     This will create a file called cred_v2 in the same directory.
For increased security please check that the file can only be accessed by the user running the SAProuter.
Do not allow any other access (not even from the same group)!
On UNIX this will mean permissions being set to 600 or even 400!
On NT check that the permissions are granted only to the user the service is running as!
1.     Check if the certificate has been imported correctly
sapgenpse get_my_name -v -n Issuer
The name of the Issuer should be: CN=SAProuter CA, OU=SAProuter, O=SAP, C=DE
2.     If this is not the case, delete the files cred_v2, local.pse and start over at Item 4. If the output still does not match please open a customer message in component XX-SER-NET-OSS stating the actions you have taken so far and the output of the commands
4.,7.,8. and 10.
Additional actions necessary before you can start saprouter
1.     The environment variable SNC_LIB needs to be set for the user account SAProuter is running under.
SNC_LIB has the form
UNIX      <path_to_libsecude>/<name_of_sapcrypto_library>
Windows NT, Windows 2000     <drive>:\<path_to_libsecude>\<name_of_sapcrypto_library>
2.     Check if the environment of the user running saprouter contains the environment variable SNC_LIB
UNIX     printenv
Windows NT     System environment variable
3.     start the saprouter with the following command line:
saprouter -r -S <port> -K "p:<Your Distingushed Name>"
-K tells the saprouter to start with loading the SNC library
the corresponding file ./saprouttab should contain at least the following entries
inbound connections MUST use SNC
KP "p:CN=sapserv2, OU=SAProuter, O=SAP, C=DE" <your_server1> <port_number>
repeat this for the servers and port_numbers you will need to allow,
please make sure that all explicit ports are inserted in front of a
generic entry '*' for port_number
outbound connections to <sapservX> will use SNC
KT "p:CN=sapserv2, OU=SAProuter, O=SAP, C=DE" <sapservX> <sapservX_inbound_port>
permission entries to check if connection is allowed at all
P <IP address of a local host> <IP address of sapserv2>
all other connections will be denied
D * * *
Example
For a SNC encrypted connection to the SAPRouter on sapserv2 (194.39.131.34), the saprouttab should contain the following entries:
SNC-connection from and to SAP
KT "p:CN=sapserv2, OU=SAProuter, O=SAP, C=DE" 194.39.131.34 *
SNC-connection from SAP to local R/3-System for Support
KP "p:CN=sapserv2, OU=SAProuter, O=SAP, C=DE" <R/3-Server> <R/3-Instance>
SNC-connection from SAP to local R/3-System for NetMeeting, if it is needed
KP "p:CN=sapserv2, OU=SAProuter, O=SAP, C=DE" <R/3-Server> 1503
SNC-connection from SAP to local R/3-System for saptelnet, if it is needed
KP "p:CN=sapserv2, OU=SAProuter, O=SAP, C=DE" <R/3-Server> 23
Access from the local Network to SAPNet - R/3 Frontend (OSS)
P <IP-addess of a local PC> 194.39.131.34 3299
deny all other connections

Upgrade from SAP R/3 4.6C to SAP ECC 6.0

Dear All,
Our organisation has been running SAP R/3 4.6C on Solaris 8 with Oracle 8i database. We are considering an upgrade to SAP ECC 6.0.
I have already checked the SAP Marketplace (Product Availability Matrix) and found that SAP R/3 4.6C first needs to be upgraded to mySAP ERP 2004 (SAP ECC 5.0) and then from SAP ECC 5.0 to SAP ECC 6.0.
My first question is whether I am on the right track.
Secondly, I was going through various SAP Upgrade strategies and curious to know the difference between technical upgrade and functional upgrade.
Please correct me if I am wrong - technical upgrade is when you technically upgrading the SAP ECC release from 4.6C to 5.0 (that is, upgrading Operating System, Database and ECC).
Once it has been completed, business processes (functional modules) need to be remapped. The development needs to be reworked upon (Modification Adjustment). This is what is known as functional upgrade.
I would appreciate if someone throws some light on my understanding on this subject.
Regards.
Wolfgang.

> Our organisation has been running SAP R/3 4.6C on Solaris 8 with Oracle 8i database. We are considering an upgrade to SAP ECC 6.0.
Oh.. you're aware of the fact, that Oracle 8 as well as Solaris 8 is out of support?
I would do it like (if you need/want to stay on the same hardware):
- upgrade Oracle 8 (I hope your run 8.1.7.4) to Oracle 9.2.0.8
- upgrade Solaris 8 to Solaris 10
- upgrade Oracle 9.2.0.8 to Oracle 10.2.0.4 + latest interim patches
- use kernel 46D_EX2
- upgrade the 4.6c to ERP 6.0
Be aware, that, if you plan to use Java applications (such as the Enterprise Portal or other Netweaer related appliation), the ERP 6.0 must be converted to Unicode.

Hi friends!!
SAP ECC professional its any functional consultant... like PP,CRM
I dont now about SAP ECC .. its version r some functional consultant

An upgrade to the latest release, SAP ECC(Enterprise central component)6.0, lands you on SAPu2019s new software-delivery roadmap. This is the u201Cgo-tou201D release for all customers currently on SAP R/3. From now on, all new functional enhancements to ERP through 2010 (when the next major synchronized release for SAP applications will take place) will be made available as optional enhancement packages for SAP ECC 6.0. Since all enhancements will be enterprise SOA-based, you must be on an enterprise SOA-enabled core (SAP ECC 6.0/SAP NetWeaver 7.0) to use them. The upgrade to SAP ECC 6.0 gets you to an enterprise SOA lifestyle; preparation for it is key. It also begins to highlight your needs for enterprise SOA components (for example, portals, middleware or service bus, development tools, and service repositories).
Must you upgrade to SAP ECC 6.0? Eventually, yes, but some customers are taking it in stages. Theyu2019re using SAP ECC 5.0. Some have upgraded to SAP R/3 4.7 as an interim solution:
Upgrading from R/3 4.6 to R/3 4.7 avoids extended maintenance fees for a while. Other reasons to go to R/3 4.7 are the ease of the upgrade (no new technology) and the ability to handle the migration with in-house staff (no new skills but additional time on the maintenance clock needed).
Upgrading to SAP ECC 5.0 instead of SAP ECC 6.0 is more typical. With SAP ECC 5.0, you donu2019t need to update to the Unicode database. If you upgrade to SAP ECC 6.0, you need to address the Unicode database conversion, so you have two upgrades to consider.
The complexity of the decision-making process stems from balancing your appetite for technical evolution and innovation with your ability to justify the migration. The SAP ECC 6.0 migration is the most challenging yet, but any release lower than SAP ECC 6.0 compromises your ability to use the enhancement packages and the full functionality of SAP NetWeaver.
Both R/3 4.7 and SAP ECC 5.0 are Unicode-compatible (but not Unicode-required), so you could upgrade ERP first and later upgrade the database to Unicode. But SAP skipped SAP ECC 5.0 for some industry solutions, so SAP ECC 6.0 became the de facto standard.

Potcode table report in SAP ECC 6.0

Hi,
we just upgrade our R3 systeem to SAP ECC 6.0 and with this new SAP ECC we can not find the old report for our postcode table check. In previous system, we use the following report to update our postcode table :
- RSADRLSM01
- RSADRLSM02
- RSADRNL_POSTCODE
With SAP ECC 6.0 the latest report (RSADRNL_POSTCODE) in not available and because of that we can not update our postcode table.
Anyone experience the same problem?
Best regards,
Audrey N. Tamara

hi,
I checked this on the systems available to me and the mentioned report RSADRNL_POSTCODE is not available in any release 4.63 and higher, i.e. it isn't available in ECC 600 either.
the NL part suggests to me that this is part of a (Netherlands) country specific extension of any industry solution or it is simply a custom report in SAP's namespace.
So, check if your system's country specific add-ons are in place already or open a customer message to SAP with respect to your country version.

anton

Pre-requisites for upgrading exchange server 2007 to 2013(Multiple domain, single forest scenario)

Hi,
We have a forest with multiple Domains in it. Each domain has exchange servers installed in it. & All are installed in Single EXCAHNGE Organization.
One of the domain from the same respective forest has decided to upgrade their exchange server from 2007 to 2013.
So my basic query is, do we require to upgrade the service pack on all exchange servers(which is a pre-requisite) in the organisation forest wide or can we just upgrade the service pack on the exchange server in that specific Domain where this activity is
planned ?
As my organization has around 30 Exchange servers running across 10 Geo locations and are running exchange 2007 Sp1 & exchange 2010 SP1, So immediately installation of service pack in all servers would require additional time and approvals.
Is this possible to just upgrade exchange servers of My domain with latest service pack and install exchange 2013 in domain ????

Hi,
You will not be able to install Exchange 2013, until all of the Exchange Servers in your ORG has been brought up to a supported level.
In other words, your servers should be at:
* Exchange 2010 SP3 + RU5
* Exchange 2007 SP3 + RU13
So No, upgrading the servers only in Y"OUR" domain is not enough.

Pre-requisites for OS X 10.9 Upgrade??

Hello. I am considering an upgrade to my Mac OS (on both a Mac and a Mac Air). The details of my Mac are:
Processor 2.5 GHz Intel Core i5
Memory 4 GB 1333 MHz DDR3
Graphics AMD Radeon HD 6750M 512 MB
Serial Number C02H9SRGDHJF
Software Mac OS X Lion 10.7.5 (11G63)
At present the OS on both my Mac and MacAir is OS X Lion 10.7.5.
I have been considering purchasing OS X10.8 Mountain Lion but decided to wait until OS X 10.9 Mavericks was issued. This was because I did not see the point in purchasing OS X 10.8 just before it was about to be superseded by a new version OS (in this case OS X 10.9); and I was unable to ascertain whether OS 10.8 would be an essential pre-requsite for OS X 10.9 or not.
I have now seen that I can upgrade (free) to OS 10.9 Mavericks – straight onto my existing OS X Lion 10.7.5. This implies that I do not need to upgrade to OS 10.8 Mountain Lion beforehand. If OS X 10.8 it is not an essential pre-requisite for OS X, it seems to me that there is no advantage gained by purchasing it.
Please can someone advise me if there is any advantage in upgrading to OS 10.8 before going on to further upgrade to OS 10.9? Does OS 10.8 have any additional features that OX 10.9 Mavericks does not have, or needs in order to be fully enabled? In short, do I need OS X10.8 beforehand to take full advantage of the OS X 10.9 upgrade?
Any advice appreciated.

Nothing. OS X Mavericks has got the same features if you upgrade from OS X Lion instead of OS X Mountain Lion apart from the features that need a specific computer, so don't worry about it. Upgrading to Mountain Lion first would be a waste of money.
Open the Mac App Store and download OS X Mavericks. If your computer isn't supported, the Mac App Store will give you an error message. Make a backup of your files with Time Machine and check that your apps are compatible > http://www.roaringapps.com

no matter what the file is, even on new documents with very little text. Nothing has worked, we have even attempted reinstall of the office suite. Can I fix my office word ? The system is running Windows 7. Fully up to date on patches and there is no 3rd party
software installed that isn't installed on other machines in the building. The error message is listed below, any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.Problem signature.

For the benefit of anyone that may run into this issue, uninstalling 2003 corrected the problem or use demo software
Word Fix Toolbox (http://www.word.fixtoolbox.com/).
I do appreciate your response but as you are suggesting that in some situations it may not correct the issues, it should be noted all systems have variances in them for installed software and personal configuration so it should not be summarily dismissed
because in some environments it can help.
