SAP 4.0 Integration to update SAP ECC 5.0 HR information

Hi, my project currently requires an existing HR module in SAP 4.0 to integrate and update HR information to a non HR system which is SAP ECC 5.0.
This HR information in SAP ECC 5.0 will then be used for DBM Clock in Clock out integration with HR . There is an existing tcode to run replication of HR which is 'PFAL'. I found that in SAP 4.0 and SAP ECC 5.0 there is a difference in the selection screen. I just wanted to know is it possible to use it to integrate between the 2 systems of different versions?.

Hi,
Please check the note 147519 which mentions the limitation and maintenance strategy. According to the note SAPGui 6.20 is "upward compatible" with ECC 5.0 and ECC 6.0 and SAPGui 6.20 supported until 31/12/2010.
However, always recommended to use the latest patch and this is currently at 69.
Cheers !!
Satya.
PS: Pls reward points if the answer was helpful...Thx.

Cannot start widget - Ensure that SAP Business One Integration Service and SAP Business One Event Sender Service have been started

Dear Experts .
I'm trying to enable widget for my company db but getting the following error :
Ensure that SAP Business One Integration Service and SAP Business One Event Sender Service have been started; then wait 1 minute and try again
I can connect to the B1iF locally and remotely .
I have the db configured in the SLD and connects successfully .
I have the event sender service and proxy started and configured for the company db.
I can access the Dashboard web portal and login with database sap credentials (but I see nothing there)
I've checked that there are no duplicate entries in the SSLD table for SBO common (note : 1619422)
I've also tried to re-activate the xelcious from the B1iF->control.
My Setup :
I'm runing SBO server, B1iF installed locally and B1iSN installed on a 3rd party server.
I'm using B1iF as even forwarder for B1iSN.
I know this has been discussed many times through out the forum and I've tried most of the stuff other than clean install.
I would appreciate any input before removing B1iF completely and re-installing.
Thanks in advance ,

Oracle Integration Adapter for SAP R/3

I am working with a customer implementing Oracle EBS Release 12.2.
The customer has implemented SAP for financial modules and the oracle solution considers an EBS - SAP Integration for Receivables. Does anyone have any experience integrating Oracle EBS Receivables with SAP? Can you give us some guidance regarding EBS - SAP Integration best practices?
We have found a paper regarding Oracle Integration Adapter for SAP R3. We would like to have some information about what are the Oracle products we can integrate with SAP using Oracle Integration Adapter for SAP R3.
In case Oracle EBS can integrate with SAP using Oracle Integration Adapter, we would like to know if anyone has experience integrating Oracle EBS Receivables with SAP using Oracle Integration Adapter for SAP R3 for AR transactions and Receipts?
Any help would be very much appreciated.

Thank you veyr much Manoj for your reply. I just tried it now buit no fruits.
I wonder if it can really be due to privileges given to my account, which allows to connect thru SAP Front-end but does not allow to connect by any other means. I can not think of any other possible reason.

The Projects screen to import and export SAP xApp Manufacturing Integration

Hello:
On my SAP Discovery Server, On the Projects screen to import and export SAP xApp Manufacturing Integration and Intelligence (SAP xMII) projects.
Under the projects listed I see one Default project, is listed as a System Project.
I did an import and used one of the sample application, along with the ExportManifest.xml file.
"You can create an external project structure, include it in a zip file, and import it as a new project. You do not need an ExportManifest.xml file to import a project."
Now I see two projects listed as System Projects, is that ok, would that cause any issues? Is there any way that I could correct this?
Note:
If you import a project that already exists, the system overwrites the current project structure and files.
You can import hidden projects that do not appear on the Projects screen or in the SAP xMII Workbench. System-defined projects may appear in the Projects screen and in the SAP xMII Workbench, but you cannot delete them. You can import a project with the same name as a hidden or system-defined project and overwrite its properties. If you do this, they are no longer considered to be hidden or system-defined projects.
Thank you,

You could consider creating a project and exporting it to see the proper format of the zip file, including the ExportManifest. You should find attributes in the xml for setting the description, system type, etc.

Updating SAP table field directly?

Hi all,
The client is using SAP for 2-3 years and this will be replaced by new SAP system ( same version - 4.6c) in few months.
So as to get data from old system we are doiong conversion right now. In this client, PO creator name is very important and it drives so many things. When we will do conversion and convert old PO into the PO in the new system, the username ( created by) will be "batch user".
Client somehow want to retain the username, the original username of old POs.
For this, they are asking to update the EKKO-ERNAM field directly once the new POs are created ( we will have old PO - new PO mapping and user name).
In my view, it is not advisable to update the SAP standard table directly. But i want the opinion from you guys that what are the implications of updating field directly. Is it advisable? Is there any other way to meet this requirement?
Thanks,
Pratik

Hi palaniappan,
1. Good question and good concern !
2. Your concern is absolytely correct.
3. Sap does not advise to
   update SAP standard tables directly
   thru any z program
(It may stop support in future)
4. But for your requirement,
   it the po user will be "batch user",
   then
   thru some Z program,
   u may do so.
5. BUT
   Please take care that
   a) u have signed specifications of this logic
      and concern from the FUNCTIONAL CONSULTANT !
     (only after that one should do)
regards,

Error while updating SAP Integration Kit XI 3.1 to SP3

Dear All,
I have updated BusinessObjects Enterprise XI 3.1 and Integration Kits for SAP XI 3.1 to SP3.
The update of BusinessObjects Enterprise XI 3.1 was fine. While updating IK for SAP, the installation shown the following error
sapweb_rri.dll failed to register.
sapweb_parameter.dll failed to register
Then I completed the installation by 'Ignore' ing the above installer informations.
Now I am getting the following error
"Account information not recognized: Plugin Manager error: Unable to locate the requested plugin secSAPR3 on the server. (FWB 00006)"
Before the update, the setup was working fine.
Does this ignored error caused the problem?
Please help me to resolve the issue.
Thanks and Regards,
Yuvaraj

Thank you.
I have the following questions, for this full installation of IK SP3,
I have imported transports from IK XI 3.1 for R/3 and BO connection in R/3.
Does the transport that comes with IK SP3 is modified?
And also some reports are developed based on the datas from R/3.
Does this complete uninstallation of IK affects the existing contents?

Update SAP ECC 6.02 from poratal

Hi everyone,
We now build a portal for module PP. We need to update SAP ECC 6.02 from the portal. Today we use SAP transactions. In the past we added a couple of User Exists to these transactions.
While using the portal all the validity checks that were added to the User Exit don't take place.
What is the best way to perform an update from the portal to SAP?

Hello Ester,
I am assuming that you will be building dynpro applications and host them on a portal. You could either embed the logic of the exists in the RFC which you will be using from the portal and and if something fails return back the error message to the end user or else if its simple to embed some logic in dynpro which will do the job.
Thanks,

SSO (trusted authentification?) not working after update SAP BO 4.0 to SAP BO 4.1

Dear experts,
After update SAP BO 4.0 SP05 to SAP BO 4.1 SP04 we have the problem with SSO to http://<boserver>/BOE/BI.
Our environment:
SAP BO 4.1 running on AIX 6.1, integrated Tomcat7, one server (no cluster)
In fact, tomcat is able to communicate with AD, in debug mode I see
[DEBUG] Mon Aug 04 14:57:23 CEST 2014 jcsi.kerberos: ** credentials obtained .. ** messages.
BUT after starting http://bodev.vse.sk/BOE/BI logon page to BI launchpad is comming, no SSO action.
Our custom properties files:
global.properties
sso.enabled=true
trusted.auth.user.retrieval=REMOTE_USER
siteminder.enabled=false
vintela.enabled=true
idm.realm=AD.VSE.SK
idm.princ=krbbod
idm.allowS4U=true
idm.allowUnsecured=true
idm.allowNTLM=false
idm.logger.name=simple
idm.logger.props=error-log.properties
idm.keytab=/home/bodadm/keytab/krbbod.keytab
BIlaunchpad.properties
authentication.visible=true
cms.visible=true
sso.types.and.order=vintela
(last line I added after reading some discussions, but it didn't solve the problem)
After update I've generated the new TrustedPrincipal.conf and saved it into /usr/sap/sap_bobj/enterprise_xi40/aix_rs6000 (also using -Dbobj.trustedauth.home=/usr/sap/sap_bobj/enterprise_xi40/aix_rs6000 in JAVA_OPTS), but it didn't help.
Before update to 4.1, SSO was working without problems.
Can you help me?
How can I be sure, that tomcat is passing the correct username and using the shared secret from TrustedPrincipal.conf when logging to CMS? Is it possible to debug it?
Best regards,
Slavomir Kysel

Hello Raunak,
QUERY_STRING was working fine, so I saw that trusted authentification and TrustedPrincipal.conf are OK.
I activated trace log for BI launch pad and checked what's going on during SSO logging.
After some playing with parameters and reading discussions to similar problems I came to the conclusion and finally I've solved my SSO problem. Magic word is trustedVintela.
Here is my new properties files:
global.properties
#sso.enabled=true
#trusted.auth.user.retrieval=REMOTE_USER
#siteminder.enabled=false
#vintela.enabled=true
idm.realm=AD.VSE.SK
idm.princ=krbbod
idm.allowS4U=true
idm.allowUnsecured=true
idm.allowNTLM=false
idm.logger.name=simple
idm.logger.props=error-log.properties
idm.keytab=/home/bodadm/keytab/krbbod.keytab
BIlaunchpad.properties
authentication.visible=true
authentication.default=secLDAP
sso.types.and.order=trustedVintela
Legacy SSO settings in global.properties are not any more needed when using new parameter sso.types.and.order=trustedVintela in BIlaunchpad.properties.
This is working SSO configuration on our installation: SAP BO 4.1 SP04 Patch1 on AIX, authentication secLDAP, trusted authentication is enabled.

SAP Support for Classic G/L in ECC 6.0 and above

Hello,
Running an SAP upgrade project from 4.6C to ECC 6.0 (EHP6). The customer is running the existing release since the past 8 years with FI/CO, MM,SD,PM and HCM modules.
We are exploring the possibilities and repercussions of moving on to new G/L from the legacy classic G/L. Please have a look at the mentioned points for replies accordingly.
1. As far as I understand, if need to seamlessly transit in the ECC 6.0 with New G/L in a way that the old transactional data, and all balances are retained with historical records, then we need to purchase the SAP New G/L Migration Services, and this would be lead and done by SAP. There is no alternate way of doing it solely by our ownself, Is this correct ?. If we engage SAP for this migration exercise and consulting then does it ensure that all historical data and balances are moved intact in the new G/L environment and from an end user perspective all transactional done to date before moving in ECC 6.0 are retained.
2. I guess we still need to review the integration impact of the new G/L for all other modules, is there a substantial rework to be done or with minimal effort, new account assignments and related configuration can be altered .
3. If we don't opt for SAP G/L Migration service but still want to activate and use the new G/L and profit center accounting, then as far as myself and my team assess, we need to decide a cutover date and gather the balances/open items from the legacy G/L and upload them to the new G/L in ECC 6.0, just as it would be the case for a fresh new implementation for a customer coming from non-SAP environment. If this is correct then :
The customer will lose all historical, detailed transactional data with respect to the legacy G/L and relevant originating entries. In such case for any business reporting requirement, the customer has to keep a separate PRD server alive in a dormant state for fetching the data before the transition in ECC 6.0 environment. Is this the correct understanding and the only possible approach, can there be a better way of ensuring the availability of historical data.
In such a case of doing a cutover data migration from old G/L to new G/L, do we have to upload the rest of the master/transactional data for all other modules as well, enacting a situation that all of them started as fresh new modules in ECC.6.0, or the legacy master / transactional data for all other modules can be kept intact for historical purposes. (examples, all vendors and PO / sales order and customer master / employee master and all payroll historical records for past 8 years).
4. Any indication or official SAP note, that for how long SAP intends to support the legacy G/L in the upcoming ECC versions. It is necessary to know in case the customer currently opts for still continuing with the classic G/L in ECC 6.0 , but we have a lurking danger that SAP would stop the support and availability of legacy classic G/L in the near future. So to a have a long term sustainable benefit, we might deliberate with the customer to take a bitter sip now , and move on to the new G/L with all its bells/whistles and the nuisances it might bring in terms of historical transaction data unavailability.
I hope i was able to make my scenario clearly understandable for having some valuable input from the forum members.
Thanks a lot for reading and replying.

Hi Syed,
From Technical basis perspective there is not much work in newGL migration apart from application and database tuning.
Time taken for migrating to newGL will depend upon number of open items available in the system at the time of migration.
Most of your queries are functional and suggestion would be to move this thread to ERP Financials.
For your information you may go through below links

Hi,
This was one of the good session...
Especially the features such as;
-- TCP/IP connection control with JMS adapters
-- Empty file Handling
-- Set the various Attributes for Mail attachments via dynamic configuration (intially only subject line was possible)
-- Message Prioritization
-- single IDOC Ack for IDOC Packaging
-- IDOC packaging
-- and many more........................
Even the future indicatioon of IDOC J2EE based adapter will provide new direction to the existion IDOC related scenarios..
One thing that was changed in IDOC packaging is to control it via Sender Communication channel...intially we were doing it either via ECC system or with t-code "idxpw"
Its almost in same way...but from J2EE based adapter perceptive IDOC packaging will be available with Java stack...and will no need to depend only ABAp stack for this feature.
Thanks
Swarup
