SAP Sourcing 7.0 upgrade

Hi,
We are planning to upgrade SAP E-Sourcing 5.1 to SAP Sourcing 7.0
Kindly let me know if any one you have completed the upgrade process and pls share your experience and challenges you faced during the upgrade.
Came to know that SAP Sourcing 9.0 on premise solution will be available for the ramp up customers in Mar 2012 and if we assume that it's GA will be somewhere in the middle of Aug /Sep 2012. Can you suggest whether we can wait for the SAP Sourcing 9.0.
Your suggestion will be highly appreciated.
Rgds,
Madhan

At first glance this would seem to indicate something went slightly wrong in the upgrade. were all the upgrade steps successful? mainly the upgrade _schema and upgrade_data scripts? We may have to get a copy of your upgrade logs and the subsequent application log when the application starts.
Regards,
Gary

Question about Managing SAP ERP 6.0 Upgrade Projects

Hi experts,
Some questions in this link(google: Managing SAP ERP 6.0 Upgrade Projects and download PDF)
http://www.google.com.tw/url?sa=t&rct=j&q=Managing_SAP_ERP_60_Upgrades_SAP_PRESS_sample&source=web&cd=4&ved=0CDgQFjAD&url=http%3A%2F%2Fmedia.techtarget.com%2FsearchSAP%2Fdownloads%2FManaging_SAP_ERP_60_Upgrades_SAP_PRESS_sample.pdf&ei=vTsVT7PKI4T6mAXL0czcAw&usg=AFQjCNFq83vYG3k14xC5tcoYy96PfllYFw
1. Is figure 5.3 in page 165 correct?
I think it should be
Temporary system: DEV 6.0
Productive system: DEV' 4.6C -> QAS 4.6C -> PRD 4.6C
2. Is this transport route possible?
"During this phase, you continue dual maintenance of the development
systems. You also transfer changes that you make in DEV' to DEV, and
transport changes to both quality assurance systems."
DEV' 4.6C -> DEV 6.0 -> QAS 6.0 -> QAS' 4.6C
If we modified some standard programs and transport between two different SAP versions, I think the programs can't work, right?

Here, you need to do manual replication between both development system. No transport is possible because of different versions. I am not sure about the document that you posted but same is explained very well in upgrade guide. Please check there.

Create SAP Source System Failed

Hi all,
We are using NetWeaver 2004s BI and try to connect to ECC 5.0. I tried to create SAP source system but got error message saying "RFC user logon failed". When I check RFC destination in ECC 5.0 for BI, the test connection is ok, but the remote logon will pop up another logon screen asking for id and password. I am pretty sure that the id and password in RFC destination is correct. The RFC destination in BI is ok. Can you help me out with this? Thanks a lot in advance.

Hi,
Check the Default Logon <b>Client</b> for ECC 5.0
and verifiy that the User is in the Same Client
Each RFC destination has a mapped user for specific Client..Check the Client and User in the same client

Data Reconciliation Node on SAP Source System

Hi Gurus,
I'm working on Data Reconciliation between SAP BI and SAP R3 systems. I've read on the forum that the reconciliation DataSource technology is available as of PI-BASIS 2005.1 / SAP NetWeaver 2004s. I'm using
SW Comp Release Level Highest Support Desc
PI_BASIS 2005_1_640 0017 SAPKIPYJ6H Basis Plug-In (PI_BASIS) 2005_1_640
I wonder that I cannot see the Data Reconciliation Node in the transaction RSA6 in the SAP Source System. Please throw some light on this whether I need to activate them.
Thanks & Regards,
Ash.

Hi Sunny,
Thanks for your response. Can you suggest me what should I do to get those DataSources? Are there any patches that SAP has released to overcome this problem for lower versions as the one which I'm using?
Thanks,
Ash.

SAP Sourcing 7.0 integration with SAP ERP - issue with SAP PI

Hi All,
We are integrating SAP Sourcing 7.0 with SAP ERP 6.0 with SAP PI 7.1 in middle. So the Sourcing will talk to PI and this intern will talk to ERP. Sourcing is on oracle 11g where as PI and ERP are on SQL 2008. All these 3 are on windows 2003 x64.
We are following the "Configuration Guide Integration of SAP ERP and SAP Sourcing 7.0" provided by SAP.
We have successfully configured Sourcing and PI systems as pe the document. In Sourcing, by using background jobs we are able to successfully generate files in "export" folder which is part of FTP directory.
However the issue is with PI, we configured the "configuration scenerio" in Integration builder and point all channels to the FTP folder in Sourcing. But PI is not picking up these files.
Is there any way to trigger this in PI system. Or do we need to do anything in sourcing itself.
Regards,
Siva.

Hello Siva,
I am thinking that you may need to deploy FTP adapter in PI to get this process work fine but not sure.
Let's see what other experts suggest.
Thanks,
Siva Kumar

Error when activate a SAP source system

Hello Experts,
I have an issue when I try to create a new SAP source system but I cannot complete this operation because a Timeout error occurs when the system made the destiny verification, the source system can be created but not activated, I already create the RFC connection and they are OK, I add the new logical system of the source system in the configuration (SBIW) in the general settings,and the data source tree is show succesfully and sems to work OK and the data sources seems to be OK too.
In the RSA1 transaction, go to source systems tree, choose the SAP source system called: "conexion a dev 200" -> right click and choose activate and the error occurs.
I have a Myself source system already created and activated, I cannot find the source of the problems thata cause the timeout error in the new source system.
Thank you vey much in advance,
Niurka

Yes, I try ti use the create automatically option first but it doesn't work, because says that we system already exists because here exist a myself source system with an RFC to R/# ( I don't know why), so I must use the manually creation option, I put the logical system, and all the requeriments of the screem. The system create the source system but when I try ti activate it, it is impossible to do it....!
I hope that you can give some tips or solution for this issue,
Thanks!

SAP Source System showing up as BI Source System in RSA1

I have 2 BW systems and 2 CRM Systems. In one BW system, when I create a SAP Source system in RSA1, It gets listed as a SAP Sources system along with ECC and all the rest.
The Logicial Systems and RFC Connections all appear to be the same between each pair.
In the other system, using identical procedure, it the source system gets listed as a BI Source System. The 2 CRM systems have identical components and version levels as do the 2 BW systems.
Any idea why and if this would make any difference and how to correct.

Hi,
To fix this, you need to do a restore (& not a delete) of the source system in BW, having deleted the RSBASIDOC entry in the source OLTP system.
This will force the BW system to interrogate the RSBASIDOC table entry in the source system again and it should then realise that it is an R/3 system (not a BW system) and move the entry to the SAP folder.

Message "Creation of DataSources for SAP source system is not permitted"

Hi,
I am in DW Workbench: Modeling and I need to copy a DataSource.
It's impossible, beacause I have this Message "Creation of DataSources for SAP source system is not permitted"!
What can I do?
Thks

Hii.
You can not copy the standard datasource to any other source system it will not allow you to do that.
But if you want to copy you can copy it to PC FILE source system.
It will allow you to copy there.
Right click in Datasource->Copy-> Give Target datasource name -
> intarget Source system tab -
>Give Source system for File.
Thanks

Best Regards,
Suresh.

Hi,
To Create SAP Source System In BI:
-Click on Source System tab in RSA1.
-Then right click on the heading Source system and select Create.
-Select the first option Automatic. Create SAP System and continue filling the other details.
-This will create Source system automatically.
When you enter background user's password, sap system user name is modifiable, but the the BI user.
The background user of BI system, is defined in
RSA1 => Settings => Global Settings
<b>BW User ALE</b> field will have the name of the background user in BI.
If you are using ALEREMOTE as background user, make sure the same is maintained as BW User ALE.

Collaborators in SAP Sourcing 10.0 must not view RFx responses unless assigned as scoreres

Dear SAP Sourcing Specialists,
We are implementing SAP Sourcing 10.0 We assign collaborators on an RFx as
with the collaborator approver role before it is published, and these collaborators
review, edit and approve the RFx and then it is published to suppliers. After responses are received from suppliers and RFx is now in
Closed for Responses phase, we do not want these original collaborators to view the RFx responses unless they are assigned as scorers.
How do we achieve this? We tried to re-assign the Review collaborator role to these collaborators but they can still view RFx
responses.
Steps to reproduce the issue:
1.Create an RFx in SAP Sourcing 10
2. Assign collaborators with approval role
3. Collaborators approve RFx
4. Move RFx to Open for Responses
5. Suppliers respond to RFx
6. Rfx closes. RFx becomes "Closed for Responses"
7. Log in as one of the collaborators
8. We do not want the collaborator to view RFx responses unless assigned as a
scorerer
Kind regards
Pedzi

Why don't just use standard functionality in Page Customisations?
You can Hide/Unhide a Tab with Dimension Field <%USER_GROUP%> and Group Reference.
It's a clean, standard way and guaranteed to work and not break anything.
