  • Problem when apply SAP Bundle Patch for 10.2.0.5

    Hi,
    We are trying to apply SAP Bundle Patch (SBP) SAP_102052_201102_SOL64.zip and SAP_102052_201103_SOL64.zip using MOPatch utility. Both MOPatch and OPatch utility have been updated with the latest download from SAP. When applying patch for SAP_102052_201102, most patches went through except for one patch that requires OPatch to be version 10.2.0.5.0. The OPatch version downloaded from SAP is 10.2.0.4.9. Even the OPatch delievered together in the SAP_102052_201102_SOL64.zip file is 10.2.0.4.9.
    Below are extract of the opatch log file for this patch:

    Hi,
    I went to
    http://service.sap.com/oracle-download
    then
    Oracle 10.2.0.5
    then
    OPatch
    The file I can see there is generic for ALL operating systems and the name is:
    OPatch_10205_Generic_v0.zip
    it seems that the version is 10.2.0.5, not  10.2.0.4.9 as you mentioned.
    I have downladed it and look at the README:
    Patch summary:
    README file for OPatch 10.2.0.5.0, the Oracle Interim Patching Tool.
    I'm not installing it, but it seems that the version is not the same as yours.
    Is this the one you have downloaded?
    Have you installed it properly? => may be you are running an older one

  • Oracle SOX patches for SAP platform

    Oracle has released many sox patches to implement.
    We would like know whether these patches can be installed for oracle databases in SAP.
    SAP has given note 1137346 for 10.2.0.4 with all other patches but not outlined the sox patches.
    Can any one clarify?

    I'd open an OSS call.
    Those Oracle patches may conflict with SAP patches.

  • What is the new sap note for Ptax slabs of FY 2011-12.

    Dear Experts,
                       we are currently using  ECC  6.0, release 604, patch level 0035 and support package SAPKE60435. professional tax slabs not updated in table V_T7INP4.
    what is the new sap note for Ptax slabs of FY 2011-12.

    Hi,
    The Profession Tax tables T7INP3 & T7INP4 are customizing tables in which the entries are to be modified. SAP provides the initial entries and, if there is any change in slab rates, then you would need to update these slabs manually.
    Please delimit the slab code in table T7INP3 and then create a new slab code entry from the date of delimition for the new rates in table T7INP4.

  • ALV GRID  and Integrated ITS 7 (SAP GUI for HTML) - dissapears on reload

    Hi All,
    We have a custom report that uses an ALV grid to display information to the user. Within this grid, there are fields that are display only and fields that are editable. Also, the grid is wider than the screen's width. It works fine in ECC. It also worked fine when we were using ITS 6.4.
    We have recently upgraded to ITS 7. Now when we run the report using a Transaction iView (in EP 7) or the Webgui service (SAP GUI for HTML), if a field that is editable has focus when an event is triggered that reloads the grid, the screen becomes blank. So, you can click the Save button and the screen goes blank, also, there are date fields in the grid and if you choose a new date, the grid reloads and the screen becomes blank.
    We have found that when the screen is blank, you can use the "Page Up" button on your keyboard and the last few columns of the grid will appear. As if the entire grid has moved off-screen to the left.
    If you click onto a non-editable field and refresh or save, the grid returns to its normal state.
    We are on Basis Patch level 15.
    Does anyone have any ideas on how to fix this?
    Also, does anyone know of a standard SAP transaction we can call from the Webgui that would have a similar setup...with an ALV grid containing editable and non-editable fields? We would like to rule out any errors in the report itself. Since it worked before we upgraded and it works fine in ECC. This would be a really big help too.
    Thank you so much!
    -Kevin

    Hi,
    Thanks Raymond, I have seen Note 314568. I could not get the second link to work but I have looked at just about every Note in reference to Integrated ITS 7 and Tables or ALV Grids and there are very many, so it would appear that SAP has had a hard time with implementing this control, but I have not seen any instance that matches the problem we are having.
    Unfortunately, SAP will not investigate this unless we can provide a standard Transaction that exhibits the same behavior.
    If anyone knows of a standard SAP Transaction that displays an ALV Grid that is wider than the screen (requiring a horizontal scroll bar) and with editable and non-editable fields, that would be fantastic. If we can test against that, then we would know for sure if this is a problem with ITS / SAP GUI for HTML, or if there is an issue with this specific report.
    Thanks!
    -Kevin

  • Accessing local clipboard with SAP GUI for HTML - alternatives?!?

    I need some creative suggestions (PLEASE!!!) to a problem that weu2019re having replicating functionality that works in SAPGUI but which we canu2019t get working in SAP GUI for HTML.
    In SAPGUI we are able to open an external browser and pass a URL for the page we want to open.  Once the page is open the user enters some data and receives a response which we then copy to the local workstation clipboard.  From within ABAP we then read the clipboard contents and then copy them in to a field in the SAP screen.  It works BRILLIANTLY! 
    However, Iu2019m not able to get the same functionality to work in SAP GUI for HTML with method CLIPBOARD_IMPORT of CL_GUI_FRONTEND_SERVICES.  Apparently this class and the methods can not be used in SAP GUI for HTML u2013 however OSS note 314568 seems to suggest otherwise with this statement:
    Clipboard access
    In SAP GUI for HTML it is not possible to:
    - read or write the clipboard using ABAP Objects class CL_GUI_FRONTEND_SERVICES.
      This limitation no longer exists with ITS 6.20 Patch 23, SAP Netweaver 2004 SP 19 and SAP Netweaver 2004s SP 10.
    Has anyone been able to use the class CL_GUI_FRONTEND_SERVICES to read from the Clipboard since this statement was made in this OSS note?
    And my bigger question u2013 does anyone have a creative idea for a solution that will work?

    Thank you experts,
    Your answers have been really helpfull, we have to try another method, by Studio Program or ABAP code, unfortunely we have to implement this in so many computers, so is impossible to configure one by one.
    Thanks to both, and have a nice 2009!

  • SAP Adaptor for Oracle Installation Help

    Hi,
    I am newbie, I am looking for help in installing SAP Adaptor for Oracle.
    My Idea is to do some RFC calls to fetch data from SAP into Oracle database. I am looking for what is my starting points, what to install and configurations. If you can help me with steps to be followed is really Appreciative. I tried to search in Oracle Forums, I guess I am not able to come up with correct tags. It may be a long explanation and may be people asked this question before. If you give me links to read is good enough.
    Following is My platform:
    Oracle:
    I have Oracle 10G and 11 versions. Right now I have my infrastructer ready for 10G. If I install SAP Adaptor and get things running according to what I need, and tomorrow if I upgrade Oracle to 11 version, What all the things that I Upgrade?
    Operating System:
    Unix AIX 5.3
    SAP:
    ECC 6
    Thanks In Advance,
    Raj Murthy(Bhavaraju)

    Hello,
    Right now I have my infrastructer ready for 10G. If I install SAP Adaptor and get things running according to what I need, and tomorrow if I upgrade Oracle to 11 version, What all the things that I Upgrade?About all the topics relatives to SAP, you should ask them (to SAP support service) the question. For instance, is Oracle 11.2 certified for SAP ECC6 ? Or would you have to wait for a later release or patch from SAP ?
    Only SAP could answer you for their own product and matrix compatibility / certification.
    Best regards,

  • Current Patches for Windows (32bit) 9.2.0.8

    We have recently upgraded to Windows 32-bit Oracle 9.2.0.8.  Note 539921  lists the patchset for Windows 32-bit as follows:
    NT_I386 32-bit
    /Oracle/Oracle 32-Bit/Oracle 9.2.0. 32-Bit/Oracle 9.2.0.8. 32-bit/
    NT_I386/Patchset_9208_WINNT.zip
    The patch set is installed with the runInstaller - see README.html
    For more information about installing patch sets, see Note 578683.
    *In addition, use opatch to install patch 12 for 9.2.0.8.
    /Oracle/Oracle 32-Bit/Oracle 9.2.0. 32-Bit/Oracle 9.2.0.8. 32-bit/
    NT_I386/9208_Patch12_WINNT.zip*
    So, after an upgrade to Windows 32-bit 9.2.0.8 you should then immediately apply patch 12?  The problem is reading note 1107601 - CPU Patches October 2007 (Oracle Critical Update Program)
    states the following:
    *The CPU patches are not a patch set, but rather a collection of patches. If
    there is a critical problem, you may have to install a separate fix, which
    conflicts with the CPU patch. In this case, you must uninstall the CPU
    patch.*
    But there is nothing specific for 9.2.0.8 (it implies there are no conflicts for 9.2.0.8):
    For Oracle 9.2.0.7, note the following:
    Unfortunately, the CPU patches for Oracle 9.2.0.7 conflict with patches
    that have already been installed and that are important for an SAP system.
    Therefore, there will be no further release of the patches for Oracle
    9.2.0.7. *We therefore recommend that you upgrade the database to Oracle
    9.2.0.8 and use the CPU patches for Oracle 9.2.0.8 instead.*
    So I'm assuming that after installing patchset 9.2.0.8 for Windows 32-bit I should apply patch 12 (which is CPU October 2007).  There are some patches listed under "Oracle Other" that seem to be generic patches listed under the download section for oracle 9.2.0.8.  Do these patches cause a conflict with patch 12?  I haven't seen a note that says to install them.
    I haven't found a note that says to install anything other than patchset 9.2.0.8 and then patch 12.  Is this right?  I need to find out pretty quick so any help  is appreciated!

    Hi,
    do following as of note 539921
    first apply patch set 9.2.0.8
    /Oracle/Oracle 32-Bit/Oracle 9.2.0. 32-Bit/Oracle 9.2.0.8. 32-bit/
                                            NT_I386/Patchset_9208_WINNT.zip
    than apply cpupatch CPUOct2007 patch 12 for  9.2.0.8  if you found critical problem with CPU it's optional
    use opatch to install patch 12 for 9.2.0.8.
         /Oracle/Oracle 32-Bit/Oracle 9.2.0. 32-Bit/Oracle 9.2.0.8. 32-bit/
                                              NT_I386/9208_Patch12_WINNT.zip

  • SAP GUI for HTTML??

    Hello All,
                    There is a dump when I am trying to execute a Finance Custom Development excel Upload program - Transaction code: ZFI_GL_UPL in EP 7.0 Portal on F4 help for file path in selection screen.. Runtime error u2018JAVABEANNOTSUPPORTEDu2019.
    If I am executing same transaction code in SAP GUI it is working fine.We are using ECC 6.0..
    Whether I need to activate any service in ICF??Whether SAP Gui for HTML supports the above??

    Prachi,
    As suggested in earlier post, have you checked Support Package level of SAP_BASIS component in your system. It should be in patch level 17 to avoid all program errors retaed to HTML GUI. If it is same or above and still you are facing the same problem then you can confirm the SAP GUI version at your end and its patch level.

  • Patch for Analyzer

    Hi Guys, I'm new to SAP BW and started yesterday with the GUI en basics.. With the SAP GUI in Business Explorer you have your Analyzer? It opens an MS Excel sheet and in Add-Ons you have your toolbar. None of those buttons work. I've read that I need a patch for them to work but I'm not sure what patch. Do anyone know which patch would that be?

    Hi there,
    The issue may not be a patch for BEx Analyser, but yes an older version of your GUI.
    Try to unistall your SAP GUI and install it again from:
    http://service.sap.com->SAP Support Portal->Downloads->SAP Support Packages->Support Packages and Patches - Entry by Application Group->SAP Frontend Components->SAP GUI For Windows->SAP GUI For Windows 7.10 Core->Win32->Download the latest one (gui710_pdb_18-10002995.exe) and install it.
    Afterwards is also better to install the latest BEx patch from here:
    http://service.sap.com->SAP Support Portal->Downloads->SAP Support Packages->Support Packages and Patches - Entry by Application Group->SAP Frontend Components->BI ADDON FOR SAP GUI->BI 7.0 ADDON FOR SAP GUI 7.10->Win32->Download the latest one (bi710sp12p_1201-10004472.exe) and install it.
    Hope this helps,
