Display values in different versions for 3 specific years

Hi
I want to show in a dynamic report and in a dynamic input schedule values for different versions ACT and PLAN via Excel client.
In the rows are entity, time (for 2009, 2010, 2011) and version. And in the columns are special time dimension to show month. Sounds very strange - and it is so... Now I want to show only values for ACT for year 2010 and PLAN for 2011.
How can I enter the dimension within the expansion area? Is there a way to combine 2 different dimensions like a statement "where time is 2010 and version is ACT"?
Thank you very much for your ideas

Hi Nilanjan
Thank you for your post.
I'll give EVTIME a try. But it will not solve my problem I guess. EVTIM is helpful for columns to use offset I do understand. Can I use it within expansion area of EVDRE function?
The display behavior has to be dynamaic. Cause there is in the first expansion dimension entity with a hierarchy. 2.nd expansion is year and 3.rd is version. And I only want to see ACT row for 2009, FC row for 2010 and PLAN row for 2011. Next 3 rows must be the next item of dimension entity and so on...
Currently I see 2009 ACT, 2010 ACT and 2011 ACT same like 3 HR and 3 PLAN rows.
Any ideas?

MDM between different versions of SAP

Hi,
Scenario: I have two SAP systems. A is 4.6C and B is ECC 6.0
Is it possible to use one MDM between the two system?
E.g.
(SAP 4.6C) <--> (SAP MDM) <--
> (SAP ECC 6.0)

Hi Riaan,
Yes, i think you can use MDM for different versions of SAP. As you know Data communicates between R/3 to MDM using PI, so in PI during Configuring Scenario, when you Transfer Integration Scenario from Integration Repository, you have option to use Version Number for Same SAP System during Assign Services.
Also in Integration Builder:Design of PI , you can use Import software components Version which can be transfer from System Landscape Directory (SLD) using Tools from Menu Bar.
This is because you have Registered SAP Sytem in SLD.
Also, In SLD you have Software Catalogs under this Software Component here you have registered software component with Versions for the Same SAP Product.
Hope it will help you,

Transports between 2 different versions of SAP

We are developing a product on ECC 6.0 (IDES) system and I'm trying to figure out how we can delivery the product to our customers. We have our own development namespace in SAP. Some of our customers are on ECC 6.0 and some are still on 4.7. Can we send a transport that was created in ECC 6.0 to a 4.7 system?
Thank you,

Hi,
It is possible to transport between 2 different versions but it is dangerous : you have to know exactly what you are transporting and the dependencies with standard SAP code.
So, it is much safer to recreate your source code in a developement system of the new version and create new transport orders from there...

Total No of pages different in report printed using Crystal Report XI R2 vs SAP Crystal Reports, developer version for Microsoft Visual Studio (File Version 13.8)

Currently in our application, we are using Crystal Report XI R2 for generating the reports. We are in the process of upgrading the Crystal Report to SAP Crystal Reports, developer version for Microsoft Visual Studio (File Version 13.8). I updated that on my machine and all the reports work fine. I didn't have to modify any of the reports.
However when comparing the reports, we found that there are few reports on which the total no. of pages differ from the report displayed using Crystal Report XI R2 vs SAP Crystal Reports, developer version for Microsoft Visual Studio (File Version 13.8). Comparing the reports, it looks all the data that were fit on one page earlier with version XI R2 doesn't fit on the same page with version 13.8, thereby increasing the page counts.
The fonts, page margins everything set on report itself. Nothing being set in the code.
Both the application is using the same report that is pulling the data from the same database. Our application is a web application.
Any suggestion, why this is happening.
Thanks.
Sanjay

I am not sure what is being compared here?
CRXI R2 designer to CRVS?
CR XI R2 in some version of .NET to CRVS?
CR XI R2 using RDC SDK to CRVS?
Also, is this happening on your development computer or after you deploy?
If you compare the the "Page setup" options dialog between reports that work and those that do not work, do you see any difference?
Is this a web or a win app?
Are you seeing the same issue when viewing and exporting - say export to PDF?
What is the printer driver used and it's version?

Comparison between ABAP command statements in different versions

Hi,
I'm looking for information on version wise difference in ABAP statements. Can someone provide help in this area.
I need a list of Commands along with there syntax in different versions of ABAP (ECC 5.0 and 4.7).
Is there any system table where this information is maintained?
Regards,
Gajendra Bhatt

Hi Gajendra ,
I doubt if SAP has some document which shows the history of all ABAP commands as to how they behaved in which version. The only option you have is go through the following notes and compile the info manually -
0000178452 Release upgrade from 4.0 to 4.5 for customers prog
0000452229 Release upgrade from 6.10 to 6.20 for customer pro
0000178725 Release upgrade from 4.5 to 4.6 for customer progr
0000689951 Release upgrade from 6.20 to 6.40 for customer pro
0000178482 Rel. upgrade from 3.0 to 4.0 for customer programs
0000857904 0003 0.460 Upgrade from Release 6.40 to 7.0: Customer program
0000367676 0061 0.450 Release upgrade from 4.6 to 6.10 for customer prog
0000099025 0004 0.340 Change from 4.0A/B to 4.5A for customer programs

Confusion about third-party-libraries in different versions in CE 71.

Hi
After some research on the use of different versions of third-party-libraries in SAP netweaver CE 7.1, I am actually quite confused and would be happy if someone could shed a light on that subject....
1. Is there a way to tell netweaver CE 7.1 to use a library in my WEB-INFlib-folder by simple configuration?
E.g. we would like to use a third-party-lib in a newer version than the one which is loaded by CE 7.1. Many application server provide a simple configuration option (e.g inside META-INFapplication.xml) where the web as can be forced to use the library inside WEB-INFlib for this application.
2.Is the concept of "heavy loading" described in a blog by Georgi Danov(Using Hibernate in SAP NetWeaver Composition Environment) the answer to question 1.?
Does it also work for other third-party-libraries than hibernate? Does it work at all?
3. In the blog mentioned in question 2, Mr. Danov is talking about "shared libraries". Does this mean, that I have to forget everything about "bundled" and "standard" libraries explained in help.sap.com/CE, if I want to create a heavy loader?
He is referencing another blog (Applications and shared libraries) which is two years old? Can I still apply the information there to CE?
4. Are "Bundled libraries" applicable when using different versions of third-party-libraries in CE 7.1?
In "Working with libraries" (http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nwce10/helpdata/en/44/f4e00e56ec0486e10000000a155369/frameset.htm) it says:
"Bundled libraries: These provide resources only to a single enterprise application, and are packed inside the application's EAR file."
=>As I want to provide the lib only to my enterprise application, I will probably have to create a bundled library, right? Does this also work if netweaver CE 7.1 uses a different version of the same library?
5. Do I need Netweaver Developer Studio for creating "bundled" libraries?
Or can I copy the binaries in the WEB-INFlib-folder of my application, deploy it and use it?
6. Is configuration of application-j2ee-engine.xml the right place to reference a third-party-library in a specific version which exists in WEB-INF/lib-folder in my application even if it exists also in another version on netweaver?
=> In the document "Troubleshooting: Finding Missing Parent-Child Relations" it says: "To implement the chain of parent-child relations in the deployment descriptor of the component, use either application-j2ee-engine.xml (for applications) or provider.xml (for libraries and services)."
=> "Creating standard libraries" (http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nwce10/helpdata/en/44/f447a8d62b0484e10000000a155369/frameset.htm9 tells me, that I have to configure the file application-j2ee-engine.xml, too.
=> But in "Working with libraries" (http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nwce10/helpdata/en/44/f4e00e56ec0486e10000000a155369/frameset.htm) it says:
"Standard libraries: These provide resources to all enterprise applications deployed on the server. They are packed in EAR files like the enterprise applications."
=> Does this mean, that I have to force Netweaver CE 7.1 to use a higher version of a certain third-party-library? Does this even work? Do all applications deployed on Netweaver 7.1 have to use this library in the higher version?
It is really confusing to read through the documentation!!! Sorry for that avalanche of questions, but I really hope it will make the issue of using libraries (especially if they exist in different versions on the CE 7.1) a little clearer!
Best regards
Bettina

Hi Bettina,
I'll try to answer your questions:

First of all, the appropriate docs are here: [http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nwce10/helpdata/en/44/f4e00e56ec0486e10000000a155369/frameset.htm|http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nwce10/helpdata/en/44/f4e00e56ec0486e10000000a155369/frameset.htm].
Basically what you do is define a lib project in the studio and deploy it do the server. This may be less comfortable then just configuring manually, therefore it work better in larger environments because the server checks that libs are available in all running instances - which it could not do if you manipulate diretories manually (an approach you should never attempt in any SAP envrionment)

If Georgi describes it, I hope so, as he is one of our developers who knows best.

"shared" are all of theses libs, as otherwise they would be specific to an application.

This was about anearly version of CE and even Georgi updated the blog this year to talk about slight differences. So yes, this still applies.

>
That depends... Your application uses it's own classloader which means it should only use your libs in case there is another version available on the server. But if you're trying to deploy a lib that is used by a service of the server (int that case loaded by the server not your classloader!) I'm not so sure.

You need the Studio. No way around that. [Edit:] Sorry, misunderstood you here: I thought you want to copy something into the deployed directory on the server! - Of course, any deployment method would do it and though copying binaries seems to be valid. However, I'm checking this currently with development in detail.

Importing transports in different versions.

Dears,
I want to confirm that is it possible to perform transports in different version systems.Our requirement is to create the request from ECC5 and then import it in our Netweaver 04s server.
So first I want to know is it possible and second thing as i know for it i have to only manually copy cofile and datafile in target system and then by STMS add to buffer and then import,Is there anything else also i have to do like changing file permission.I am using windows 2003 server.
Please suggest.
Deepak

as u would be aware transport is done by r3 trans
different versions of R3trans are fully compatible with each other, because the data is transported in a standard format. Thus one can use different versions of R3trans for export and import.
Transports between different databases or operating systems are not a problem either.
When you transport between different SAP release levels, note that this usually does not present any technical problems due to the upward and downward compatibility of R3trans , but logical inconsistencies could occur in such transports
Further technical and logical problems for the various releases are outlined in notes 60928, 120151, 126776 and 330267.
hope this helps !

I'm confused (different versions of PhotoShop CC)

Why did Adobe release two different versions of PhotoShop CC (the upgrade to PShop CC and PShop CC 2014)? I assumed that, as a subscriber to the Creative Cloud, the one version of PhotoShop CC that I originally installed (last year) would be continually upgraded and that I would not have to download an entirely new version to keep up with new features. This is a big mistake on Adobe's part and sounds to me as if it's just a marketing ploy. ("See? We've released a new version of PhotoShop this year and you should join the Creative Cloud to get it.")
Adobe, your upgrade/updating policy needs some reworking.
Dave

This is a major new version release. Adobe has been doing this for years. it's just like an upgrade from CS5 to CS6. By Adobe doing this, it allows the user to go back to an older version of PS if necessary. There are a lot of reasons why someone would want to do this. many of us were hounding Adobe to make sure we could fall back on an older version - myself included. So this isn't a mistake, you still get the latest and greatest version with your subscription. You now have a choice which one you want to use.

What is "SAP Best Practices Baseline Versions"?

Could you help explain what is the relationship between "SAP Best Practices Baseline Versions " and
other SAP products?
Thanks!

1)SAP Best Practices Baseline Versions will deliver preconfigured organizational settings for different scenarios with regard to the following areas: common organizational structures, logistic organizational structures, and intercompany organizational structures. these can be implemented on any of the component based on the platform availability, and cannot be directly used. For example with out installing an SAP sysetm you cannot implement baseline versions. So the relation would be Component or Product is primarily available to use the secondary component i.e Baseline versions on it.
The SAP Best Practices Baseline Package is available in different country versions (for example, for France, Nordics, Germany,
the United States, and the U.K.). The scope of these localized versions might differ depending on country-specific needs. Please check this link: http://www.sap.com/services/pdf/BWP_SAP_Best_Practices_for_Baseline_Package.pdf
2)The other products are
Customer Relationship Management (CRM)
Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP)
Product Lifecycle Management (PLM)
Supply Chain Management (SCM)
Supplier Relationship Management (SRM)
The SAP NetWeaver technology platform enables the composition, provisioning, and management of SAP and non-SAP applications across a heterogeneous software environment (release version from 640 to 700 and above) Prior to the introduction of SAP NetWeaver as an integrated technology platform, SAP has developed a number of integration technologies and offered them as individual products, among them for example SAP Enterprise Portal, or SAP Exchange Infrastructure.

Hi,
According to your post, my understanding is that you get an error when you restore a site collection from a different server in SharePoint 2010.
I recommend that you can try to click the “KB2536599” for SharePoint 2010 version 14.0.0.6106 to download the patch from the following links and install the patch in your environment.

http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2536599
After the installation, you need to run the Configuration Wizard. Later you should be able to restore this site collection successfully.
