SAP ERP 6 system and compatibility with BW systems.

Hi All,
An upgrade to a ECC 6.0 system form 4.6C or 4.7 system is fine. But however, in an integrated environment - the 4.6C system is usually integrated with other SAP Products as well.
The question I have is is a ECC 6.0 system compatible with BW 3.5 or lower versions of BW - i.e. when I upgrade my system to an ECC 6.0 system can these systems still talk in between themselves, or I have to plan a upgrade for this?
If the answer is yes - is it mentioned in any SAP Note/ Website or Document as because I also need an artifact to support the answer.
Thanks, Dibya

Hi Dibya
the component lists (from service.sap.com/scl) document for each release, which product instance is needed for which process (i.e. ECC and NW - BI). This source includes information about old releases as well, but not about mixtures between releases.
In the Upgrade Dependency Analyser will you find information about these mixtures (see for instance: SAP Network Blog: New Tool for Planning Your Upgrade: The Upgrade Dependency Analyzer : New Tool for Planning Your Upgrade: The Upgrade Dependency Analyzer)

IDES and other Clients in one SAP ERP 2005 System

Hello everybody,
within a project for my master thesis i have to set up an SAP ERP 2005 System. This system should contain at least three clients. One of them should be the IDES client. Another client should be set up with an existing template. The third client should represent a smal company or at least i should set up some example process from the company (there is no need to map the whole company in the system). These processes should be realized with the SAP standard processes and they should just show how to map easy processes to SAP ERP. Neither the second nor the third client need to run in a productive environment, everything is just for training and testing.
My main Questions are:
I've already set up the SAP ERP 2005 System but without IDES. Can I still integrate the IDES Content or do i have to reinstall the whole System with a complete IDES Installation?
Can I implement the second and third client in the same ERP System (where the IDES client is) or do i need different Systems for it? Even if there is no productive use for the clients we would like to have a Development and a Quality Landscape. Is this possible with the IDES client? Actually I have two fast machines for this purpose - one for quality and one for development.
I would be very grateful for any hints.
Thanks a lot.
Regards,
Martin

Hi,
You can use SAP IDES as Dev and Quailty.There is no diffrence in full sap or IDES .In IDES we have some pree configure Clients and full Ecc we have three client 000,001 and 066.
So you can use SAP IDES as DEV.
Your Question :I've already set up the SAP ERP 2005 System but without IDES. Can I still integrate the IDES Content or do i have to reinstall the whole System with a complete IDES Installation?
Ans : you install diffrent mechine.We do't use any content.Do reinstall

Problems with Apple Preview filled forms and compatibility with Windows?

Anyone else having problems with Apple Preview filled out forms and compatibility with Microsoft Windows after Lion?
I've had it happen recently with two different people, where the data I had entered on a fillable PDF form could not be seen by Microsoft Windows, but I saw my data just fine.
I don't know what version of Adobe Acrobat they were running.
Thanks,
kt

You will get that first message when the document has been changed in a way that invalidates the internal digital signature that's applied when a document is Reader-enabled. Certain changes are allowed (e.g., filling fields, commenting, signing) and will not invalidate the signature, but others are not. The exact cause of the change is often hard to track down, but it can be due to font problems, some type of file corruption, or something that Acrobat/Reader attempts to correct when the file is opened/saved. You will also get the message if the users system time is not correct and is currently set to some time before the document was Reader-enabled. It seems best to use the most recent version of Acrobat to enabled the documents and recent versions of Reader to work with them.
It problem is probably not related to the user using anything in the Sign pane.

Appleworks docs and compatibility with iWorks application?

Appleworks docs and compatibility with iWorks application? Does it exists? I do not have iWorks and will soon be upgrading my op sys to 10.4 (it really is in the mail) I currentl have 10.2.8
I use AppleWorks a great deal. Does iWorks replace it? or enhance it?
Will AppleWorks be upgraded or is 6.2.9 the last iteration?

Welcome to Apple Discussions SYGWS
iWork (no "s") is not an application, but the name given to the package of two applications, Keynote & Pages.
Keynote is a presentation application that can open AppleWorks 6 presentation files & PowerPoint files. I haven't use Keynote other than to view a few presentation. You probably can find a lot of information by searching the Keynote forum.
Pages is the word processing/page layout application in iWork. Pages is able to open AppleWorks 6 word processing document as well as Word, text & RTF documents. It is not able to open any other AppleWorks documents or older Word documents (I'm not sure how far back it goes). Pages 1 (iWork '05) will not display floating spreadsheet frames in AppleWorks 6 word processing documents, Pages 2 can. Pages 2 has limited spreadsheet functions available in tables (as does Keynote 3, both in iWork '06). Pages can export as PDF, Word, plain text, RTF & HTML (HTML export is disappointing to say the least). It cannot export as AppleWorks (any version).
No one here knows for sure if AppleWorks will ever get another update & those that do have signed non-disclosure agreements, but it is extremely unlikely. In the iWork ’05 press release iWork is said to be "building the successor to AppleWorks."
Many users here, like me, use Pages for what it does so well & AppleWorks for what it does that iWork doesn't (at least not yet) - databases, spreadsheets & drawing.

SAP R/3 4.7e compatable with Netweaver foundation ?

Hi,
could you please suggest me for below Queries .
1. Does IS-Media is very much compatable with 4.7e?
2. Will this present problems for us in any of the functionality we've
been expecting? Does 4.7
have the same Netweaver foundation, integration with XI and
Portals, etc?
3. Can i integrate 4.7e with other new dimentional products like
Solman3.2,XI,BW3.5,Portals , etc ?
4. Which SAP release is recomandable for IS-Media to work? 4.7e or ECC ?
I appriciate if you could suggest me for this.
Thanks,
Ahmed

Even in Sandbox landscape having R/3 & XI on the samebox is not recommended.
Moreover SAP R/3E & XI 7.0 don't have the same WebAs version(R/3 WebAS- 6.40 & XI WebAs -7.00). Hence they cannot be installed due to product compatibility. It should be atleast ECC 6.0.

SAP ERP - Demand Planning and Forecasting

Dear all,
my customer is a wholesale company. They want to use a component in SAP ERP (not SAP APO), in order to make demanding planning and forecasting for the materials , quantities and dates they should make the purchases in order to cover the demand of their customers. What is the component that should be used in order to achieve this?

MRP can be used without production planning. SOP and Demand Management are not Production.
Nevetheless, if you want a simpler planning cycle, provided that you understand its ads and cons, you could go for Consumption Based Planning MRP.

How to find the difference in BI Content between SAP ERP 4.7 and ECC 6.0

We are looking at upgrading our SAP system from 4.71 to ECC 6.0, and I have been tasked with determining what new data may become available in our BW system after the upgrade. I was wondering if there was a site that would tell me what new datasources/infoproviders are made available after an upgrade to ECC 6.0.
I do not need to see the list of all Business Content in ECC 6.0, just what has changed.
Also, the type of upgrade we are looking at performing is a "Technical Upgrade", which presumably just upgrades the SAP back end without affecting the front end. Can someone confirm that the new BW content will then be available after a technical upgrade?
Thanks
Michael
PS - our BW system has been on version 2004s for two years now.

IE 8 and compatibility with Officejet J6480 All-in-one

I have the above Officejet J6480, connected via USB, XP operating system and earlier this year after installing IE 8 I found that the printer was not compatible. Therefore I went back to IE 7, and have been awaiting news from HP that the compatibility issue has been resolved, but I haven't heard anything. It would seem that installing IE 8 would be a good move if it is compatible with the printer.
Questions:
Is the Officejet J6480 now compatible with IE 8 assuming I have updated my printer software from the HP site?
If not, what do I need to do in order to use IE 8?
Is there any reason not to go to IE 8?
Thanks for your help....

What version of OS X? What router?
Get the latest software for your printer from the "Support & Drivers" link at the top of this page.
Say thanks by clicking "Kudos" "thumbs up" in the post that helped you.

SAP ERP 2005 ECC 6.0 with Windows 2000 Application Server

Hi,
We are currently running SAP 4.6C in iSeries model 570 OS V5R3.
I would like to know after upgrade from 4.6C to ERP 2005 ECC 6.0 if we will gain any performance improvement by adding Windows 2000 Application Servers in our environment. Second Question - how much load will be taking away from the iSeries if adding one application server (Memory and CPU).
Ramon

Hi Ramon,
what hardware do you use at the moment ?
820, 870, 5xx ?
How any CPUs ?
How much memory ?
You are on 4.6C ASCII right now ?
In your case, I don't see, that Win 2003 servers help in performance, I would guess, that the CPU after the upgrade is about 60% which is still ok - then using 3-tier - especially in R3 environments is mostly not good for the performance because of the DB time increasement.
The memory you will need is pretty the same for the iSeries.

Oracle support and compatibility with graphics cards

I have been going through 2 weeks of hell getting any kind of meaningful information on Oracle linux 6.2 support for various graphics cards. I started with an ATI FireGl card that would not work with OEL 6.2. I am swapping that out in the seemingly futile hope that I can get an Nvidia GEFORCE 8800 to work. Either I am conducting my search using the wrong verbage(hard to imagine, but possible) or totally incompetant! I am here in one last desperate gamble that SOMEONE has gone through this pain before me. Maybe I am asking too much to be able to install 11GR2 on my server and still be able to use a Gnome desktop. Linux Mint worked perfectly with the ATI card, but alas, I could not install Oracle.
Thank you in advance
Dean

From what I understand, the error means that the X Window server cannot find a display attached to your DVI output, which actually means it does not support the DVI port where your display has been attached to. This is a problem of the video driver that simply lacks support for your graphics adapter.
I suggest to start by connecting only one display and verify it is connected to the DVI-1 port of the adapter. Support for DVI-2 requires support by the video driver.
Enterprise Linux should work with graphics adapters that are standard with server hardware sold by HP and Dell. Graphics adapters you can buy over the desk from ATI and NVIDIA are usually designed for the end-user desktop/game market and are all difficult to get fully working under Enterprise Linux. You can check the vendor support page to see if they provide driver support for SUSE and RHEL, but I doubt that it will work with the Oracle Linux UEK kernel. Driver software from these vendors are not open source and require a specific Linux kernel. Alternative drivers exist for http://nouveau.freedesktop.org/wiki/ for NVIDIA, but your success will vary, in particular if you need to support 2 monitors, which is not a typical server system setup.
You might have more luck using a Linux distribution for desktop systems, such as Fedora or Ubuntu. What you are planning to install from Oracle? It is easier to get Oracle Database working on unsupported Linux than trying to hack a video driver to support advanced features on an unsupported operating system. Or try a complete different approach and install Windows and use virtualization, like Oracle VirtualBox to run Oracle Linux out of the box. I would prefer to use virtualization even if my desktop computer would run Linux. There are just too many advantages I would not want to miss anymore.
