RFID SAP and KPI's

Is RFID a great opportunity to maintain the numbers of your kep performance indicators?

Sander,
it depends on how yuo want to measure the same , if you have a KPI for stock , it RFID could be used for tracking inventory , however if there is a KPI called profitability , soft numbers especially finance etc, RFID would not be of much help but in terms of tangibles ,it would be a very great help.

How about the RFID device and SAP AutoId connections?

Hi All,
Scenario1 (Ports are enabled from client system): Client m/c is in different location and SAP AutoId Server is in different location. I have to connect the RFID reader and device controller to Client m/c to send the PML message to Server system. Is it possible?
(Or) Do we need to connect the RFID Hardwares directly to the SAP Auto Id server?
Scenario2 : I have to connect the server system through VPN, in this case If I connect the RFID hardwares to client system. Is it fine?

Sara

Hi Stellare,
I fully agree with Daniela Bork. You've installed 5.2 and you need some preliminary data load like rules, messages etc. as per the installation & config guide. By doing so you're loading standard risks(Global) will be created in the system. This value if you want to check at table level this should be at your DB attached to the Java stack.
ABAP stack tables are /virsa.... and virsa_cc are java stack tables. It depends on which version of GRC you're using.

RFID - SAP AII

Hi all,
Need some infomation on SAP AII and also how to relate RFID with SAP AII and also SAP Data base,
How the data will be filtered in SAP AII?
If anyone knows regarding this let me know
Thanks,
-Teena.

Hi Teena,
SAP RFID Solution Package
The SAP RFID solution package provides a complete auto-ID middleware solution connecting RFID data directly from auto-ID data capture sources, such as RFID readers and device controllers, and integrates the data directly into enterprise applications . It converts raw RFID data into business process information by making the associations from key business rules, master data, and transactions to raw RFID data .
SAP Auto-ID Infrastructure
Auto-ID Infrastructure is compatible with SAP R/3 4.6C or greater, and it also has adapters for SAP Warehouse Management, SAP Business Information Warehouse, SAP Supply Chain Event Management, SAP Advanced Planning and Optimization, and all SAP NetWeaver components.
Auto-ID Infrastructure is designed to synchronize EPC and RFID information into your ERP systems by providing a complete, multidimensional data model of RFID-enabled assets, including:
1.EPC number
2.Asset location
3.Status
4.Last RFID read point
5.Handling unit number
6.Packing hierarchy association (such as item, item-to-case, or case-to-pallet)
It then maps this data to your SAP R/3 system via association to handling units (HUs). Handling unit headers include a standards-based HU number, weight, volume, and dimensions. HU content includes material number, quantity, unit of measure, batch number, plant number and location, and stock category (such as consignment), as well as serial number and inspection lot data.
These HUs are then associated with EPC numbers and are integrated into the appropriate transaction for processes such as production orders, transfer orders, sales orders, delivery (ASNs) and receipt, shipment, picking and packing, and inventory move and packing operations.
Because it is built on SAP Web Application Server, Auto-ID Infrastructure supports multiple communication interfaces (HTTP, SOAP, WSDL, SOCKET/ TCPIP), as well as mobile interfaces to PocketPC 2003 and Mobile Linux (Sharp).
It runs on Windows (XP, 2000, NT), Unix, and Linux, and supports Oracle, SAP DB, DB2, and Microsoft SQL Server.This should answer your query.
Thanks & Regards,

How to avoid the duplicate receipts in SAP and Barcode system

Hi Everyone
We are using SAP ECC 5.0.Our receving is done by bar code system and it updates the SAP system. We have two separate database systems one for Bar code systems and another for SAP. Sometimes while receiving RFID scanner shows material is not received or failed and we have to receive it manually in the SAP system. Sometimes barcode system might have received but it is displayig error message, material receipt failed and we enter manually in the SAP and it becomes duplicate and creating inventory problems. Is there anyway we can fix this problem like while receving manually in the SAP system it should alert or pop message like material already received. What change we need to do in the configuration side.
Your help is greatly appreciated.
thanks in advance

Using ale u can send from sap to sap and sap to non sap systems

hi,
using ale u can send from sap to sap and sap to non sap systems,
then what is diff b/w ALE and EDI

Hello KALYAN KUMAR,
Application Link Enabling (ALE)
1.You distribute data using ALE if you want to communicate from one system to one or more other (mostly internal) systems.
2.ALE transfers data in IDoc format and uses the methods of tRFC for data transfer.
3.ALE enables the integration of business processes across several SAP or non-SAP systems.
Electronic Data Interchange (EDI)
1.You use EDI if you want to exchange business application documents with an (external) partner system (for example, a customer or vendor).
2. The SAP system sends EDI messages in IDoc format to an EDI subsystem, where they are converted to a universal EDI standard (UN/EDIFACT or ANSI/X12).
3. This enables communication with non-SAP systems.
By definition, two partners are involved in the process in an EDI application scenario: The sender and the recipient of an EDI message
I hope u understands the difference:)

SSO for SAP and Non-SAP applications without Enterprise Portal

Dear all,
Is it possible to implement SSO for both SAP and non-SAP applications without involvement of EP at all?
I have gone through this link.
<a href="http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04s/helpdata/en/e5/4344b6d24a05408ca4faa94554e851/frameset.htm">http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04s/helpdata/en/e5/4344b6d24a05408ca4faa94554e851/frameset.htm</a>
But I still i am not able to get the precise answer on how to enable SSO for both SAP and non-SAP applications without EP.
We have decided not to implement EP in first phase of SAP implementation. But we need to enable SSO for other SAP and Non-SAP applications.
A detailed description on how to deal this kind of scenarios will be helpful.
Thanks.

A client of our's uses SAP Enterprise Portal, and is using the SAP SSO, which is implemented with tickets, and requires the use of SAPSECULIB. My company provides an application for this client, and our application in hosted in our data center for the client, as a Software as a Service application, obviously across the internet. Our client, which owns a SAP license, has asked that we support the SAP SSO as a non-SAP SSO application. The client user's SSO ticket will be created from SAP EP, and then passed across the internet to our application, and we are to use that SSO ticket as an authentication ticket to our application. I beleive I know how to do this work technically, having reviewed the SAP document named: "Dynamic Library for Verifying SSO Tickets in Third-Party Software" Specification Version 2.00 December 2005.
My question is, does my company have the right to use the SAPSECULIB? Where is the official download and license download, that indicates we can download this library, and use it to support a SAP customer? We do not own a SAP license. Thank you for your help. I have searched many places in SAP support.

Data Reconciliation b/w SAP and BW

Hi Experts,
We have some BW reports for FI-CA for cleared items and the values on BW are less than what we have in the SAP Table.I tried reloading the data but it didn't helped.How can I resolve this data inconsistency b/w SAP and BW? Please advice
Thanks in Advance
Renny

Dear Renny,
1) Identify the data source used
2) Use transaction RSA3 in BW and R/3 for this datasource.
3) Try to test data for a month say May 2007
4) If it is the same, may be you are not using proper selection conditions in the Infopackage.
If it helps even a bit, do allocate *points

How do we reset password for SAP* and DDIC user in SAP R/3 ECC 6.0?

Hi,
How do we reset password for SAP* and DDIC user in SAP R/3 ECC 6.0?
I tried with acual method as below from client '000':
DELETE FROM USR02 CLIENT SPECIIED WHERE BNAME = 'SAP*' AND MANDT = '001'.
After this when I tried to logon '001' using SAP* with password PASS it is giving the message that Incorrect logon and password.
(Also when I checked for 'SAP*' in 001 it looks like it is not got created as I queried as below:
SELECT SINGLE * FROM USR02 CLIENT SPECIFIED WHERE BNAME = 'SAP*' AND MANDT = '001'.)
Can anybody throw some light on this? RewardS is guranteed for solutions!
-B S B

Hi again:
I forget to tell.
You must restart the system. So, that a new user with the name "sap*" gets generated with password "pass"
Hope this wil help,
Eric

Data to be fetched from legacy system to SAP and doc needs to bee posted

Hi Experts,
I have a requirement where my client is using some application in Legacy system(Fuel Software) which receives fuel(Petrol, Deasel, CNG) in system and issue the same to company owned vehicles and wants that sap should be integrated and document also needs to be posted in sap for all the receivings and isssuences against their vehicles.
Process Designed is:
1. Required Data file will be picked from legacy system with some date stamp and will be placed in sap directory.
2. There will be batch job which will check for new file based on date stamp.
3. Will pick record n will pass to Goods_mvt_create bapi and then will post the document.
4. We have created Vehicles as Internal orders in sap and whenever any issue will be there internal order no will be captured.
5. By this way we are receiving and issuing in sap.
Now my problem is i am stuck in designing step 1 and rest 2,3,4,5 steps have already been designed and working fine. Need your help in step 1. Else you may suggest some better way-out but again want to mention rest steps are already mapped
Thanks in advance..

Hi Ashutosh,
You can use functions:
FTP_CLIENT_TO_R3
FTP_COMMAND
FTP_COMMAND_LIST
FTP_CONNECT
FTP_COPY
FTP_DISCONNECT
FTP_R3_TO_CLIENT
FTP_R3_TO_SERVER
FTP_SERVER_TO_R3
FTP_START_REG_SERVER
FTP_START_SAPFTP
FTP_STOP_REG_SERVER
FTP_VERSION
which allow you to connect from SAP ERP to any FTP server (if the legacy has it). You can validate the sample program RSFTP007.

CR2008 connectivity issue with BOE Universes(sap and non sap universes)

Hi Experts !!
Recently we tried to build/connect to a Universe in Crystal Reports2008 via 'Make a new connection tab'.
The universes are of SAP BW or non SAP Lying in BOE Servers and we are trying to build reports on them by conncting/utilizing the universes as a database for Crystal Reporting.
Our issue is most of the time we are not able to connect to the Universes and the connectivity blows out by some 'communication Error' thing initially.
While at some other points in time, the connectivity takes us to the Universe and we are able to select few characteristics and key figures from the Universe but the moment we go futher and try to run by pressing 'OK' button it blows out and say' LOGON FAILED'.
Apparantly, it is an connectivity issue with BOE server and from the different blogs it looks like it is a known issue for long.
The proposed issue resolution were like either CR2008 should be SP2 with BOE SP3 or there should be some additional .dll files defined in the paths in case of MSSQL database. None of this applies to us as we are on CR2008 with SP3 and going back to SP2 is probably not a viable option for us, and we are using Oracle as underlying database in this specific case.( i would like to tell you here that we are able to connect to Oracle Database directly though).
We have raised a message with SAP and was just wondering if we do have some solution/workaround already available to this known issue in place please?
Thanks&Regards.

Hi Amit,
Moved to Universe Forum.
If you have a case logged then no point posting here also, this is a public site and not a case management tool.
Once you do get the solution from your case please post it here also to help others if they have the same problem.

Communication between non SAP and SAP

HI,
do you have some information about communication between non SAP and ERP (WebAs) SAP System ?
I would like to receive an xml file or xml IDoc from a Java Plattform (non SAP) into our SAP ERP System as an own defined IDoc.
remember: we don´t have a converter like XI.
What about using a proxy (do you have some information/blog how to use that) ?
What about using a webservice (do you have some information/blog how to use that) ?
What about storing the xml on the application server (do you have some information/blog how to use that) ?
How to transform xml to IDoc ?
other methods ?
Thanks for your help.

Here is a link to connecting MS SQL Server with SAP using Open Hub connection.
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dd299430(SQL.100).aspx
This might give you some insight into connecting with Non SAP Systems.
I have used the information from this link to export data from SAP to MS SQL Server.
Good Luck.

Upload Opening balance of G/L accounts from legacy system to SAP, and also

Hi Gurus,
How to upload Opening balance of G/L accounts from legacy system to SAP, and also Vendor and Customer balance.
My Doubt is when you upload the customer balance and vendor balance will it effect the sundry debtor account and sundry creditor account if not the how will the sundry debtor account and sundry creditor account will be posted with the balance. Please send me the general entry passed for posting the same.
What I understood is that when we are uploading the customer and vendor balances through LSMW, no entry will be passed and it will update the customer and vendor sub ledger in FBL1N and FBL5N but it will not affect the sundry debtor account and sundry creditor account.
To give effect to sundry debtor account and sundry creditor account we need to manually pass a journal entry as follows.
1) Sundry debtors account A/c -
DR
      TO clearing account A/c
2)     clearing account A/c -
dr
     Sundry creditor account A/c
Please let me know whether iam correct
Also please tell me what will be the scenario for uploading of the assets balances through LSMW.
THANKS AND REGARDS
MV

Hi,
     When you uploading any data from legacy system to sap normally we will be using LSMW or BDC,thru this we will be uploading master data like G/L,vendor,Customer and asset master these are the some examples and we will upload transaction data also that is P&L Account and Balance sheet.When we do uploading data thru LSMW system will update all the values of vendor,customer and asset values as well as subsidary ledger also.No need to do manully.
