SAP BW support Project error in implementation

Dear Friends,
My company got a support project in Business warehouse Intelligence, with a retail chain manufacturing and selling fashion wear across India through its chain of stores & other resellers.
This SAP BW was implemented by a SAP partner and no documentation is available and I find following issues to be solved apart from other issue that I have solved:
1. The datatargets are activated some in 3.5x and some in 7.0 i.e. some having infosource u2014> datasource u2014> transfer rules u2014> update rules u2014> infopackage while others are having transformation u2013> DTP u2014> Infopackage,
my question is should I convert all datatargets in 7.0? If yes what are the benefits? And how?
2. For every datasource there are quite a few infopackageu2019s created for loading data.
Should I delete the unnecessary infopackages?
3. For infocube 0FIAP_C02 the data is supplied by ODS 0FIAP_O02, the data is loaded correctly but in case 0Creditors which references 0Vendor the master data is available in the system but is not displayed in the infocube and in the query.
How do I sort this issue?
4. Quite a few Process Chains is created and active, but as mentioned above the data extraction is happening through a few infopackages.
Should I deactivate the process chains and carry out data extraction manually till the system is stable and then activate the same after checking the dataflow?
5. And lastly to create/ change/ view queries though we are having latest patch for SAP GUI 710 we are not able to carry out above activities.
How do we solve this?
Waiting earnestly for guidence.

1. It's up to you to use 3.x or 7.x flow If you have enough resources/time you can Migrate them to 7.x Flow
Ofcourse you will have advantages over 3.x like you will only transformations which replaced Transfer rules and updates rules as well and easier to manage and you will DTP -> Error stack / Debugging / Rich delta functionality
2. Normally we will have Auto Infopackage for Delta and also one for Manul infopackage(incase for 'Repair full') .. Check all the IP's If there any filters in each package to upload data to targets .. If you feel they are unnecessary then you delete them or keep them they doesn't impact
3.You don't need to load 0CREDITOR if it's being referenced by 0VENDOR since MD is shared for reference objects
4. Try to understand the unused PC's and their purpose sometimes we will have PC's for delta and also for Full loads to avoid manual interaction, and we will have pc\s for full loads as well .. If there are many pointing to the same target anyalze and delete them .. you can remove them from schedule (if they are scheduled) and later you can schedule as per your needs
5. Check If you have enough authorizations / check SU53 - If you are missing any authorization objects and contact basis team to get access.

Whether SAP WAS supports Adobe interactive form implementation done in J2EE

Hello,
we are develoing a J2EE application, where we will develop Adobe interactibe forms.
We need to know if the Adobe document services will support this implementation.
The main confusion is around documentation, which discusses Web Dynpro only.
Please guide.
Thanks in advnace
Mona

Hi Mona,
Eventually ADS has a web service interface. The Web Dynpro PDFDocument API eventually just uses this web service. In that perspective, it's technically certainly possible to generate PDFs and to import/export the data.xml and use other features in a standard J2EE application. A serious difficulty is that there's no documentation concerning this web service interface. It's more or less possible to figure that out yourself, but since the interface is not part of the public API, there's absolutely no guarantee it remains stable between different patches.
Bottomline: technically it's possible, even achievable, but I wouldn't advice this approach (and I doubt SAP supports it).
A much easier (but not that easy solution would be to call a Web Dynpro application (without a UI) from a J2EE application where the Web Dynpro application uses the PDFDocument API (NW04s) or PDFObject API (NW04). Maybe you can even use the Web Dynpro API directly from within a J2EE application? There's certainly no issue at compile time, but I'm not sure which references you need at runtime.
Kind regards,
Sigiswald

What are the common errors we get in supporting project

can any body reply what are the common errors we get in supporting project
for abapers tickets will get or not.
what type of tickets generally get regarding reports.

SAP Tickets are nothing but problems or issues raised by the end
customer in a company where end users are running SAP project.
Once the SAP project is implemented, support phase begins. Support
team is responsible for solving the tickets/issues in day-to-day
business.
For any support project, customer will set up Help Desk. If any
problem occurs customer will call Help Desk and register the
issue/Ticket.
Different companies use different software products to manage SAP
Tickets. Remember this software is not provided by SAP. It is third
party software. There are many software products in the market like
Manage Now et c. You can call these software products as tools.
All tools will provide the common attributes which are listed below-
1) Every user will be provided with user name and password to enter
into the tool
2) We can see the tickets assigned for a particular user name.
3) You can list all open tickets by giving the Date Range
4) You can list all closed tickets by giving the Date Range
5) You can list out all the open tickets assigned for an User
6) You can list out all the closed tickets assigned for an User
7) You can see the description of the Ticket, by entering the Ticket
Number. You can see who had raised the Ticket, what is the problem.
What is the severity of the Ticket?
There are lot many other attributes like you can transfer the Ticket
to another user etc.
What is the severity of the problem Ticket?
When a Ticket is raised, it will be given severity. There are
following severities. It may vary from company to company.
Severity 1
Severity 2
Severity 3
Severity 4
The severity will be decided based on the business critical impacts.
If there is large impact on the business it
will be given 1 severity, if it is having least impact then it will be given 4.
Severity 1 problem tickets should be solved in 8 hours.
Severity 2 problem ticket should be solved in 16 hours.
Severity 3 problem ticket should be solved in 15 working days.
Severity 4 problem ticket should be solved in 30 working days.
Again the no of days may vary from one company to another.
All these things will be decided when giving the contract to the IT
company. The agreement is called as "SLA".
SLA stands for Service Level Agreement.
What happens if a particular ticket is not solved by the IT company
according to the SLA/Contract?
The Customer imposes fine on IT company as per the contract/SLA.

Mig7 project Debugging with ILA core - Timing Error in implementation

Hello,
I am designing a core which has only performing read/write operations to/from DDR3 SDRAM with MIG7 IP core. I am synthesizing and implementing without any problem if I have no ILA core present in the project. After adding the ILA core I am having errors at implementation (Route Design). I used Set up Debug wizard while creating cores and .xdc file.
After several trials I have seen 2 types of errors:
[Drc 23-20] Rule violation (PDRC-29) MMCM_adv_ClkFrequency_clkin1 - The calculated frequency value, 0.000 MHz, of the CLKIN1_PERIOD attribute on the MMCME2_ADV site MMCME2_ADV_X1Y1 (cell tranceiver/u_mig_7series_0_mig/u_ddr3_infrastructure/gen_mmcm.mmcm_i) is outside the allowed range (10.000 - 933.000 MHz). Please change the CLKIN1_PERIOD attribute value in order to be within the allowed range for this device.
[Drc 23-20] Rule violation (PDRC-34) MMCM_adv_ClkFrequency_div_no_dclk - The computed value 500.000 MHz (CLKIN1_PERIOD, net CLK) for the VCO operating frequency of the MMCME2_ADV site MMCME2_ADV_X1Y0 (cell dbg_hub/inst/USE_DIVIDER.U_GT_MMCM) falls outside the operating range of the MMCM VCO frequency for this device (600 - 1440 MHz). The computed value is (CLKFBOUT_MULT_F * 1000 / (CLKINx_PERIOD * DIVCLK_DIVIDE)). Please adjust either the input period CLKINx_PERIOD (10.000000), multiplication factor CLKFBOUT_MULT_F (5.000000) or the division factor DIVCLK_DIVIDE (1), in order to achieve a VCO frequency within the rated operating range for this device.
[Vivado_Tcl 4-16] Error(s) found during DRC. Router not run.
In xdc file I have changed two parameters:
set_property C_CLK_INPUT_FREQ_HZ 200000000 [get_debug_cores dbg_hub] -- it was 300000000 before as default
set_property C_ENABLE_CLK_DIVIDER true [get_debug_cores dbg_hub] -- it was false
I added xdc file and error description in the attachments.
I could not find any solution.
Best regards, Ali

I guess I have solved the problem, if it is a problem.
In the description of the property, C_CLK_INPUT_FREQ_HZ, it says that "this property is only used when C_ENABLE_CLK_DIVIDER property is set true". However when I set true it gives clock frequency error as I have given in the error description.
Then I have set C_ENABLE_CLK_DIVIDER property to false and then tried with that. And everything gone well. The project is working as I intented.
I guess there is a mistake in the explanation or I just misunderstood the sentence.
Thanks for the previous replays.

Error during implementation of SAP Note 41715

Hi,
I got the following error during implementation of SAP Note 41715.
"Error during RFC connection to SAPNet, cannot update SAP Note"
Why do we get this error? Any ideas.
Thanks,
Ibrahim

Hi,
this SAP note is a very old SAP modification note.
I think, you have to do all work manually.
But have a look at the note: You have to install some other SAP notes before that!

New to SAP FICO - Placed in a support project - Need Help

Hi everyone,
I have placed for a support project in a retail industry and I have been taken FICO as my module. Can you guys help me in knowing what all things I have to do in the initial stage

Moderator: Please, read and respect SDN rules

They are in the same path in the jar file that they were when they were on your disk in the file system. Lets say you have a dir structure
C:\dir1\dir2\dir3\dir4\file.txt
and you cd to dir2:
cd \dir1\dir2
then you jar dir3:
jar cvf jar.jar dir3/*.*
the path to file.txt would still be /dir3/dir4/file.txt inside the jar file.
do a jar tvf jarfile.jar and take a look.
