Regarding Formatting Of SAP SERVER

Hi All,
In case if there arises a need t format the server what are the cautions that we need to take? As the hardware key of the server would change, how do we get the licenses back again? We do have customer s user id and password so can we get new licenses after formatting? Please guide.
Thanks,
Joseph

Hi I have an issue. My company uses SAP Business One and purchased 40 licenses. Because of the high cost, the company made a decision not to purchase a maintenance contract. At one of our sites one of our servers with 12 licenses, which is also the domain controller, crashed and the domain had to be rebuilt, resulting in a change to the hardware key. As a result users cannot log on to SBO because the license server is requesting a new license file. Although we were given an S-Number, whenever we attempt to access the customer portal to download a new license file, we receive a message that the user is not authorized because we do not have a maintenance contract. When we contacted the partner, it was confirmed that we must have a maintenance contract to download a new license file. We were also informed that we would have to pay retroactive for each year that we did not pay for a maintenance contract and it would better to purchase new licenses. Since then everyone at SAP we have contacted has been reluctant to assist us. Our accounting has come to a grinding halt for a week now.
Is this correct. If it is then this is ridiculous. We have researched and It would be more cost effective to purchase a total new accounting suite than to pay retroactive on maintenance contracts to SAP which is supposed to be optional . We did purchase our licenses which are still valid from SAP and not from another company. I can understand being denied any patches or upgrades in the absence of a maintenance contract or even paying for a support ticket to obtain a new license file, but not denial of access to our license which has already been paid for. (sounds like a legal issue). Your feedback in getting this issue promptly resolved will be greatly appreciated.

Regarding Paragraph format in SAP Script

Hi SAP Gurus,
Can any one please tell me the use of TABS in paragraph formats in SAP Script.
Thanks & Regards,
Pavan Bandaru.

Hi
first you define you tab in paragraph formats.
whene you must use this pharagraps you
just insert double comma before the text.
,,&matnr&
attention because if you define more than a tabulator il will take the tabulator in sequence.
,,(1st tab)&matnr&,,(2nd tab)&matnr&
if i define a tabulator of 2cm and another of 3cm and you insert 4 comma
,,,,&matnr&
it will take the summ of the two tabulator.

Hi all,
can we use open datset to store pdf file in text format in application server.
when i am using this some data was getting correctly stored in appl server.but some data is getting converted to # symbols.of course the pdf data also contains some different characters in that place.
but i want that pdf data in that format,i dont want that change of # symbols...how can i do that...
and while storing it,it is allowing only open dataset in binary mode only ..can anybody explain why?
regards,

data_tab = itab.
open dataset dsn for output in binary mode.
loop at itab.
transfer itab-field to dsn.
endloop.
close dataset dsn.
clear itab.
refresh itab.
*- To crosscheck if it went well
open dataset dsn for input in binary mode.
do.
read dataset dsn into itab-field.
if sy-subrc = 0.
append itab.
else.
exit.
endif.

Batch / script file to start /stop sap server

Hi,
 I would like to start/stop SAP server using batch file (in windows). I need this, whenever we have to shutdown the server and restart of the server, so that SAP will automatically shutdown and restart using batch files while server restart cases? If anyone knows, please let me know. Thanks,
Regards,
Sundar.

target of the 700 sapstartsrv improvement was to deliver identical functionality on all SAP platforms. As the DCOM programing model is only available on Windows platforms sapstartsrv.exe was enhanced by the WEB-Service interface and is available now on Unix too.
The DCOM SAPControl interface of sapstartsrv.exe is still existing, but only on Windows. Here you can use VB Script or any other programming language able to handle DCOM objects to write your own programs / scripts to interact with the SAPControl.
sapcontrol.exe is a command line program available since 700 which enables you control over nearly all functions of the sapstart service.
Even it has the same name as the DCOM interface it' something completly different.

Hi Neetu,
Do you wish that at all customer site all concern involved in implemtation do the same work ?
I believe ERP is meant for single entry system, and it should be true for implementation also, why to invest man hours for the same task ?
I expect it standard reports should be released by SAP, so that speed of implementation improve, we have more nos. of satisfied customers.
customised reports is all together different and it is understood that it is needed to be developed after study the exact requirement.

Open Data Set Error while trying to read file from non SAP server

Hi all,
is it possible to read data from non-SAP application Sever?
I'm using OPEN DATASET p_filin FOR INPUT IN LEGACY TEXT MODE CODE PAGE '1504',
Where p_filin is other Windows server.Our applicition server is under Unix.Is it a problem?
I make test to read file from SAP application server and it was ok.So how to call other server?
Thanks!

Hi,
Yes it is possible to read data from a non SAP server through the statement OPEN DATASET.
The important thing to check is that the SAP Server got enough access to the non SAP server so it can perform a reading/writing process depending on your needs.
You should contact your network administrator and BASIS to help you check the permissions. This can be pretty tricky, specially if the servers are in different domains.

Hi sachin,
You can monitor your sattilite systems through solution manager.
If you want to monitor systems in solution manager means you need to configure those systems in solution manager.
Before including the systems in solution manager we need to create a solution using tcode DSWP.
After that you can include the systems using tcode SMSY.
For configuring the systems we have lot of phases its very difficult to explain here.
Try to login to service.sap.com and help.sap.com find the helpfull guides.

Download file to SAP server including blanks in its name

Hello,
after going live with a developed application for downloading documents from KPRO to SAP server the users found out that they need filenames which contain blanks. (Don´t ask why! )
This results now in the effect that e.g. they will download a file to the SAP server which is named
map_doc 1234 abc.pdf
Using the function module CV120_KPRO_CHECKOUT_TO_SERVER
the file is downloaded as
map_doc
and this is wrong!
CV120_.... is using OPEN DATASET which is obviously cutting the filename after the first blank.
I tried to correct that by adding function module ARCHIVEFILE_SERVER_TO_SERVER (found hint here on SDN) but this one is running into the same problem.
Does anybody know how to fix that problem?
Is there any possiblity to rename files on the SAP server to names including blanks?
Your help is really appreciated!
Best regards
Dirk

Hi Ankesh,
using ' ' together with OPEN DATASET results in shortdump with TRANSFER for file content!
So this is no way!
Using ' ' providing the CV120.... function module does not work, because the FM erases them before
using OPEN DATASET .

Dirk
