SAP BO Latency and MTU requirements

I'm trying to find out the required MTU and latency for SAP Business One when used remotely via Windows Remote Desktop. Please help.

Hi Suman,
Thanks for your answers.You answers and links which you have attached are helpful and It answered my questions related to canvas size and Connections.
I am expecting some benchmark numbers as per the best practices with respect to the No. of components to be used to ensure the better loading of the dashboard. As the increase in number of components increase the size of the dashboard and also it requires more time to load the data for the components, I am looking for the number as per the best practice by considering the below points.
1. When I say the no. of components, I am not considering the components like label, text box,combo box or list box. I am considering the components which is used for visualization and interactive drill down on top of the visualized charts ( For Eg. Column charts, Pie charts, Gauges ).
2.I am not going to use more calculations/formulas in my dashboards as the values and structure are almost the same with the BEx query.
3.Having around 10 to 12 connections.
4.The data sets are not more than 900 rows totally. For any control, we will be binding only 100 rows at the max as the data for the KPIs are summarized at the year/month level at the BW layer.
Since the KPIs are more, the Visualizations are more and we can't re-use the Visualization charts for most of the KPIs. Currently I am ending up with ~35 charts/ gauges along with other label and selection controls which I will be using to show 100 KPIs with unique visualization requirements and I am going for the tab-wise layout with more dynamic to accommodate and separate logically.
Hope these details will give clear picture of why I am looking for the Benchmark on No. of components .
I appreciate your help!
Thanks and Regards

Usage of CRM_ORDER_MAINTAIN SAP Help Link and Suggestions Required

This is regarding CRM_ORDER_MAINTAIN fm
Currently we are using function module crm_order_maintain outside Loop i.e calling once for all the contracts as sap crm performance standard ,
Is there any standard documentation where we can find that states CRM_ORDER_MAINTAIN should be only used outside loop,
As some are telling us to use in Loop Endloop because of timeout error in background job with contract having 180 line items,Which i feel that this create unneccessary load on execution (Not Recommendable)
Please share any comments and suggestion this and also provide me the SAP Help Link on this

Hi,
for example to you, look for FM CRM_LRP_APPOINTMENTS_GET_DIAG which using CRM_ORDER_MAINTAIN and parameter it_appointment.
Hope this helps.

SAP SSM 10.1, hardware and server required?

Hi
Please help me, what are the Hardware and Servers requirement for SAP SSM 10.1, can we use SAP BW 7.4 for this or any separate server or add on required??
Please also let me know weather cube builder and pas administration both can be used simultaneously for SSM??
Thanks and Regards
Rahul Sharma

Hello Rahul,
The 10.1 installation guide located on the Service Market Place > Release & Upgrade info > Installation & Upgrade Guides > Analytics > Enterprise Performance Management > Strategy Management > 10.1 lists the requirements. As well there is more information in the Product Availability Matrix, the link to that is in the install guide.
I would also recommend reviewing knowledge base articles 1954589 and 1979183.
As for using PAS and Cube Builder you can have both open but the limitations is that Cube Builder (along with Entry and Approval) use a model in Exclusive mode so you would not be able to work on a model in PAS at the same time you are working on it in cube builder.

Gathering Technical and Business Requirements for SAP PI

I need to some documents and tools, or interview guide & questionnaire to gather the stakeholders' technical and business requirements for SAP PI

Thanks for the links,
I am quite new at SAP and currently trying to elaborate should i use SAP PI or not based on my project stakeholder's requirements.
And my biggest problem right now is how to capture technology and business requirements and match them with SAP PI
I plan to use this format while requirements gathering about integration platform:
1- Draft Requirements
Q- What is the names and status of sending and receiving application and how they will be used
2- Detailed Requirements
Q- Connectivity, Administrative and Business related questins
3- Administrative and project management information
Q- Which applications are involved, who is the original supplier? Who is technical contact at the supplier
4- Business requirements
Q- Questions about the information flow which will support some business processes
5- Connectivity to applications
Q- Questions about connectivity mechanism, file formats (flat file or XML or something else), data access methods and so on
What do you think about the general concept?

SAP ECC6 memory and paging issues

Dear Experts
I have recently upgraded my 4.6C systems to an ECC 6 system (DB2 LUW 9.5 on AIX 5.3 TL9 64 Bit OS)
I have been running the LPAR with 14 GB of memory and we are around 100-200+ users using the system, I was monitoring using nmon and found that Physical Memory was around 99.8% Used   (14311.8MB and 22.6MB was free) also the paging space was around 37.2% in result causing the system at times to run slow which can have a very negative effect on the users.
After further investigation I found that after a system restart the Physical Memory would start around 50.9% and increased at a steady pace until it reached 99.8% that is when the system would start using the paging space which would steadily increase, I found that the only solution was a system restart at least once a week to reduce the memory consumption.
At first glance it looked like a database manger memory leak with the process db2sysc, so I searched the net with the search words u201Cdb2 memory leaku201D and found the following APARs and notes.
APAR JR30285 - Pervasive memory leak when compiling SQL statements that use SQL/XML functions
APAR IZ35230 - There is a pervasive unix-specific private memory leak in the security component
Note 1288341 - Memory leak in APPLHEAPSZ -> SQL0954C
Note 1352361 - Memory leak in shared memory area abrfci
Note 1147821 - DB6: Known Errors and available Fixes in DB2 9.5 LUW
After reading the notes and APARs I decided to updated DB2 to the latest fix pack (5SAP), but after the fix pack was implemented it did not solve the memory problem
I started look at different problems with SAP ECC6, db2 and AIX with paging/memory problems and I found the following notes to do with AIX memory and paging but none of them helped as all parameters and settings were set accordingly
789477 - Large extended memory on AIX (64-bit) as of Kernel 6.20
191801 - AIX 64-bit with very large amount of Extended Memory
973227 - AIX Virtual Memory Management: Tuning Recommendations
884393 - AIX saposcol consumes large amount of memory.

1121904 u2013 SAP on AIX: Recommendations for Paging
1086130 u2013 DB6: DB2 Standard Parameter Settings
After even more investigation I found the following evidence suggesting AIX Virtual Memory Manager might have a problem

SAP-JEE, SAP_BUILDT, and SAP_JTECHS and Dev Configuration questions

Hi experts,
I am configuring NWDI for our environment and have a few questions that I'm trying to get my arms around.
I've read we need to check-in SAP-JEE, SAP_BUILDT, and SAP_JTECHS as required components, but I'm confused on the whole check-in vs. import thing.
I placed the 3 files in the correct OS directory and checked them in via the check-in tab on CMS.   Next, the files show up in the import queue for the DEV tab. My questions are what do I do next?
1. Do I import them into DEV? If so, what is this actually doing? Is it importing into the actual runtime system (i.e. DEV checkbox and parameters as defined in the landscape configurator for this track)? Or is just importing the file into the DEV buildspace of NWDI system?
2. Same question goes for the Consolidation tab.    Do I import them in here as well?
3. Do I need to import them into the QA and Prod systems too? Or do I remove them from the queue?
Development Configuration questions ***
4. When I download the development configuration, I can select DEV or CON workspace. What is the difference? Does DEV point to the sandbox (or central development) runtime system and CONS points to the configuration runtime system as defined in the landscape configurator? Or is this the DEV an CON workspace/buildspace of the NWDI sytem.
5. Does the selection here dictate the starting point for the development? What is an example scenarios when I would choose DEV vs. CON?
6. I have heard about the concept of a maintenance track and a development track. What is the difference and how do they differ from a setup perspective?   When would a Developer pick one over the over?
Thanks for any advice
-Dave

Hi David,
"Check-In" makes SCA known to CMS, "import" will import the content of the SCAs into CBS/DTR.
1. Yes. For these three SCAs specifically (they only contain buildarchives, no sources, no deployarchives) the build archives are imported into the dev buildspace on CBS. If the SCAs contain deployarchives and you have a runtime system configured for the dev system then those deployarchives should get deployed onto the runtime system.
2. Have you seen /people/marion.schlotte/blog/2006/03/30/best-practices-for-nwdi-track-design-for-ongoing-development ? Sooner or later you will want to.
3. Should be answered indirectly.
4. Dev/Cons correspond to the Dev/Consolidation system in CMS. For each developed SC you have 2 systems with 2 workspaces in DTR for each (inactive/active)
5. You should use dev. I would only use cons for corrections if they can't be done in dev and transported. Note that you will get conflicts in DTR if you do parallel changes in dev and cons.
6. See link in No.2 ?

Marc

SAP R/3 and DSXI tool

Hi All,
Before posting this thread i have googled on how SAP DSXI tool can be used to ensure proper address data maintanance in SAP and couldnt succeed in finding any good info.
Our requirement is we use external tax system(Sabrix) for calculating taxes for R/3 transactions. As we know in U.S and Canada the one important parameter for calculating taxes is the Jurisdiction code of the customer. This will be determined by the third party system when ever any address data is maintained in SAP system either it is customer master, plant/shipping point etc...
The thing is to return a unique jurisdiction the third party system expects that SAP sends the complete address like country,state,district, postal code , Postal code +4 geocode value. When creating the customer master data manually or during mass upload our user will have only 5 digit Postal code/zip code, they dont have the information of +4 geocode value of the zip code (which becomes 9 digits in total). Since the geocode value is not maitained in SAP, the tax system wont be able to determine the jurisdiction and it errors out the transaction.
We thought of making it mandatory to enter the geo code value when the cusotmer master data is maintained, but this will not solve our purpose as most of the time at the time of customer master creation the users wont be having the +4 geocode value.
I heard about SAP tool "DSXI" which can be used to get the geo code value. Does any one have an idea on what is this tool and how it can be used / integrated with SAP and what features the DSXI tool is capable to do. Any inputs/documentation in this regard is highly appriciated.
Thanks & Regards,
Srinivas

Hi Lakshmipathi,
Thanq so much for your inputs. Can we find any documentation in sap help or service.sap on how to integrate SAP and DSXI. Basically our requirement is when ever a customer master is created with out GEOCODE value (ZIP+4 value), that customer record need to be picked by DSXI and update it with the geo code value. For this we want to know any standard interfaces/programs exist to link up SAP R/3 and DSXI.
Thanks,

Connect SAP R/3 and BW to Crystal Reports

Hello,
I am trying to connect crystal reports to SAP R/3 and BW
I have installed the SAP XI Integration for SAP solutions kit. I have zipped all the files to a folder on my local machine. What do I need to do now to make this work? If anyone can give me a step by step direction that is easy, please let me know! I have a folder called Transports from the zipped file which has some files in it, however if someone can please explain where I need to go in either crystal or SAP that would be extremely helpful, thanks!
Fahad

Hi,
it would actually help if you would share the error message here as well.
You need Crystal Reports 2008, INtegration Kit for SAP and BusinessObjects Enterprise.
correct - Transports are required as well and need to be installed.
You can find all the details in the Installation and Administration Guide for the SAP Integration Kit on help.sap.com

Secure Communication between SAP R/3 and SAP portal(WAS Java)

Hi All,
We have a requirement where client says ,there needs to be a SSL tunnel established between SAP R/3 and Portal(through ITS) to access R/3 through portal
Do we have to use SSL for that or SNC?I heard SNC is a mechanism which have to be used here since it uses DIAG protocol to connect but not Http.Is it true?Kindly give some more ideas on this.
Other thing is to do this they need to open a port between for using Firewall.Can you guide which SAP port has to be open for this connection?
Thanks In Advance

SAP WM-PP: Spit transfer requirements

Hello,
We are working in a WM-PP scenario with transfer requirements and transfer orders.
For one process we need to use the "2 step picking" functionality of the SAP system.
In the release of the production order, the system is creating the transfer requirements. SAP is creating one transfer requirement per operation, with many items, one item for each component in the operation.
This is the problem, instead of one "big" transfer requirement with many items, we need to have many transfer requirements. This is because for the "2 step picking" process we need to have more than one "transfer requirement group" for the components of one production order operation.
The problem is that the "transfer requirement groups" can group "transfer requirements", no "transfer requirement items". If one transfer requirement is in the group, all its item with 2 step picking belong to the group.
Summing up, we need a way of splitting transfer requirement according to our criteria, in order to create several "transfer requirement groups" for the components of one production order operation.
As far as I know, we can only split transfer requirements in one operation according to the destination bin of the component.
Is there any other way of splitting transfer requirements?
Thank you very much for your help.

Hi all,
Thanks for the replies.
@ Jurgen: I have setup mail notifications, but I don't see any messages. It looks like SAP simply does not try to create a transfer order in the first place.
@ Bala: yes this has been checked. Actually I'm part of the project team so any changes would have been done by myself most probably. Anyway, no changes made to this part of the system.
Any suggestions?

Oliver
