Migrating workflows from a 4.7 system to ECC 6.0 system

Hi,
I have workflows in a 4.7 system which will get used in a newly upgrade to ECC 6.0. Has anyone had problems with this? Is it okey to transport
an old workflow to be used in a 6.0 system? What do I have to bear in mind when doing this and is it easier to rewrite the workflow in the new system than to
look for differences between the old and the new system?
If you think that it is okey to change the old workflows - do you have any guide about this? What is different and what do I need to think about. I would
very much like to have your recommendations concerning this.
Thanks,
Kristina

I found the link under the libraries for 4.6 and in fact someone has already posted it in this forum but it will give you some idea to the key areas to be taken care while upgrading.

Is it possible to migrate data from a 4.6C system to an ECC 6.0 system?

Hello all,
We have an ECC6.0/Oracle 11g system which runs Finance, Purchasing and Payroll/HR for our own organisation.
We also have another 4.6C/Oracle9 system where we run only Payroll for another organisation.
This is a separate landscape (Dev / Test / Prod / DR) which runs on its own hardware.
Clearly, this 4.6C system has to be upgraded in the next 12 months or so before it is out of maintenance.
However, we are exploring whether it would be possible to migrate the data from the 4.6C system to our existing ECC6.0 system instead of upgrading the 4.6C system.
In this way, we can decommission the 4.6C hardware and simplify our landscape.
Has anyone undertaken a similar exercise who would be willing to share their experiences?
Or does anyone have any opinions as to whether this would even be possible?
Our initial thinking is that we would probably have to write our own conversion programs and/or possibly use LSMW but it's early days so any feedback is welcome.
Regards...John

Hi,
However, we are exploring whether it would be possible to migrate the data from the 4.6C system to our existing ECC6.0 system instead of upgrading the 4.6C system.
You can make of ALE/IDOCs technology to transfer the required data from 4.6C system to ECC 6.0 system. Here you will need to perform necessary mapping of the fields and perform required technical configuration. Later write ABAP codes to fetch and transfer data .
Hope this answers your query.

Triggering SAP workflow from non-SAP system

I am trying to use WF-XML to trigger a workflow in SAP from non-SAP system.
I have already created a workflow template in SAP and want to test the scenario if this will be really hit by the incoming xml message.
Questions:
1. How the data from incoming xml is tranferred to workflow container element? IF system does it, how is done? If not how to address it?
2. Do we have some tool here, to simulate this situation - to create a test xml incoming message with SAP and really see if that triggers the desired workflow template. Pupose is testing the scenario first in SAP and then going to the other system to test the real interface.
This is somewhat similar that we see in incoming IDoc. In Idoc we can simulate the incoming IDoc structure and test.
Is any one here who can guide on this?
Thanks in advance.
Rgds.

Hi,
You don't need a triggering event. In the xml it says which workflow should be started. You don't need a class to fill the container. The service does this.
I think there is a way to generate an example xml but I don't know exactly how. In the <a href="http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw70/helpdata/en/54/de9e3887d6174fe10000009b38f842/frameset.htm">SAPHelp</a> there are some examples of the documents. Check also the entry above it about the creation of a WF_XML document. In the first and third example it shows a container element and its value (QUESTION).
Try to get a copy of the book "Practical workflow for SAP" by Alan Rickayzen. It has got a part about this.
Also check this link from the SAPHelp:

Transfer of workflow from one system to another

Hi all,
I have a requirement as follows:
1) V have developed a workflow in our system and tested
2) now the client wants tht in their system
if it is within our system, v can transport the request to copy tht workflow. But here the system itself is a new one where we need to do all configurations for workflow development. There is a way of storing the workflow as XML and thn importing it into the system.
Can anyone suggest with solution for this transfer from one system to another?
Thanks,
Sivagami

Hi,
1) In the T.code SWDD, Give your Workflow no. and Press enter.
2) Goto Menu, in the first Menu you can find Export and Import.
3) You have to export and save that XML file
4) Then go to the new system in the SWDD, Click import and it will ask of the file, upload the same file which you export from that system

Can we migrate SharePoint Designer 2013 workflows from DEV to UAT to Live without any issues? Any bad experiences?

Hi there,
1. Can we migrate SharePoint Designer 2013 workflows from DEV to UAT to Live without any issues? Any bad experiences?
2. When we deploy these workflows - does IIS need a restart?
Thank you.

That depends, did you create reusable workflows? Those can be deployed to another environment (of course depending on dependencies within the workflow itself)
Kind regards,

I need to migrate data from Lion to OSX do you know of any problems with content between the two systems?

I'm using a MacBook AIR and OSX 10.9.1. When I upgraded that I made a mistake with the user name and so created another user. Now I understand I need to migrate the data between the two systems but that there might be trouble with some of the content files transferring across? Has anyone done this before? If so what were the pitfalls? Thanks and Help! No-one typing this feels as if they're on a steep learning curve at all!

First advise is to disable Memory Cleaner ! you don't need that , It can cause freezing and clocking. To disable it , From your homescreen go to Options > Security > Advance Security setting > Memory Cleaner > Disable that feature .After disabling it reboot your device do it by removing the Battery while your device is Powered On then wait for at least a minute then reinsert it back, your device may take a long reboot .
Then monitor your device for the next few hrs. and check if you feel the same problem .

How to copy WorkFlow from one system to anorther system

Hi All,
I have to Copy the Work Flow from One system to another system. So how to download and upload workflow from SAP. Please help me in this regard.
Thanks,
Ananth

Hi Ananth,
Yes it is. From the workflow builder menu, choose Workflow > Import/Export and export to an XML file.
You can also import from an XML file into a different system in which case the builder will create a new
workflow in a 'New, Not Saved' status. Then when you save it, it will assign the unique IDs for the workflow and each task.
You might also consider getting the program logic for any custom business objects. You can do this by going to the basic data of the business object and doubleclick the program name. From here, you can choose download from the utilities menu to get the program which includes the custom methods, attributes, etc.

Issue Transporting Business workflow from one System to Another

Hi All,
As there are many limitations in Import/Export of Workflow I'm going for a Transport of Workflow from one sytem to another.
There are some query's reagrding transporting of the Business Workflow through Transport Request.
1)   How can get the Transport Request no. of the Workflow to be transported? (As there are no direct versions displayed from menu).
2)   If there are any dependent objects first how to find the dependent objects lof workflow like if any data element, Domain, Table, Structure (if these objects are used in your WF definition or may be BOR method), Function module, function group BOR, Rule, WF template, task and Task assignment ?
3) How to get Transport Request no. of such dependent objects specifically The Task,Rule , WF template etc.?
4) I have object Type ZBUS2081 related to it how can i get its TR ?
Please describe as I'm new to workflow.
Please identify if there can be some issues after transporting workflow .
Regards,
Ujjwal

Hi Ujjwal,
Please find the below hint's.
1. Regarding the objects included in the Transport request check the Tables - E070*.
2. For dependent objects, you should check the workflow template. You have to check all the Task's and in the task go to
   utilities ---> Object directory entry --> Lock overview . Here you can see the request. It will show you the current request for    the Task.
3. To get the TR for Business object, Go to basic data ---> Transport data --> Here you can see the Request ID for the business object.
Thanks,
Viji.

Migrate pab from Netscape 4.15 to Sun Java System Messaging Server 6.2

Hi all!
I have installed JES 6.2 and through MoveUser and a little LDAP attribute modify I have migrated all mail/account from Netscape 4.15 to JES.
Now I have to migrate PAB from Netscape Webmail to JES Messenger Express 6.2.
All my PAB stay in o=pab of SunOne Directory Server. How can I migrate this structure to another root (o=pabjes, for instance) for JES Messenger EXpress?
There is any scripts to do that?
Thank you very much
Best Regards
Marco

First, thank for the answer.
I tried,
but Netscape and JES PAB are quite different.
This is an entry Netscape:
dn: cn=170695183, ou=testcomune, o=pab
mail: [email protected]
givenName;lang-it: Plutarco
objectClass: top
objectClass: person
objectClass: organizationalPerson
objectClass: inetOrgPerson
objectClass: pabperson
cn;lang-it: Plutarco Plutone
memberofpab: 117080712
sn;lang-it: Plutone
cn: 170695183
And this is an entry JES:
dn: un=ziopinoc6173be, ou=testcomune, o=pab
mail: [email protected]
un: ziopinoc6173be
givenName: zio
objectClass: top
objectClass: person
objectClass: organizationalPerson
objectClass: inetOrgPerson
objectClass: pabperson
sn: pino
cn: zio pino
As you see, in dn JES appear un instead of cn.
Attributes are little different.
Really, in JES Communication Express I can see also the old entry of pab. But I can't edit them by click to "Display Name": all field appear empty in the opening window.
So, I think two operation are needed:
1) a script that modify attributes from netscape pab to JES pab.
2) when I add a JES account, the pab is added in a tree that is not the netscape pab. The autocreate netscape pab was:
ou=<uid>,o=pab
the autocreate JES pab is:
ou= <tree_of_account_on_his_root>,ou=<uid>,o=pab
To avoid confusion, I would like keep old tree style also for new account without change it by hand in paburi attribute.
Is that possible?
Thank you very much again
Marco

Importing workflows from GRC 5.3 to GRC 10 and then changing them

Hello Experts,
We are migrating our SPM,RAR and CUP data from GRC 5.3 to GRC 10.1.At present in our CUP we have user access request workflow as 2 stage workflow.Now in GRC 10.1 we require a 1 stage workflow.
I wanted an advise if it would be feasable to import the GRC 5.3 workflows and then make changes into it and remove 1 stage.
Or create new workflows using BRF+.
we are not sure as to what changes can be performed in the GRC 5.3 imported workflows in GRC 10.
Please advise
Regards,
Apeksha

Hello Steve,
Migration you deploy Java component and extract data form 5.3 and import in 10.
still lots of work to be done like and implementation as there are pre-requisite.
second approach does not need to extract all data from 5.3 system(apart from Ruleset,if at all its required)
I never migrate workflows better to create new one identical and faster i believe .
Second approach is little time consuming but good from my point of view.
In java stack people normally go with 2 system landscape .
there has been client where in ABAP people go with 3 system landscape.
now where tricky consulting part play and which data to be imported where.
and few other points needed to be looked like when you use tools and import data.
you actually import all transaction data which contain all active and inactive
expired.
in you go with 2nd option you will have only valid data to start with.
