SAP TRM VS Others

Anybody has experience in both SAP TRM and CS Lucas' Infinax system?
We are considering these 2 options and would appreciate if anybody has any views.
Currently, we are already using SAP FI. For treasury, we are using CS Lucas' Alpha station.
It would be great to have everything in SAP but users have been very comfortable with CS Lucas' solutions.

Standard vs Advanced module of SAP TRM

Hi gurus,
do you have any idea, what is the difference between Standard and Advanced module of SAP TRM? Is it related to some licencing differences? If it's licencing, can you describe that is short.
thanks a lot for your reply.
Rgds,
Renatas

to be honest I don't remember the outcome, sorry
it might be that the Customer asking the question misunderstood some marketing material, so was trying to verify.

Integration with SAP - Comparing SAP XI against other EAI Middlewares

I highly appreciate if you could throw some of your expertise and insights to the following:
1. What are all the architectural advantages if we use SAP XI instead of using other integration middlewares such as SeeBeyond, WebMethods etc.
2. Most of the EAI middlewares (such as SeeBeyond, WebMethods etc.) provide BAPI and ALE Adapters to integrate with SAP anyway. So, what is the architectural and business value add if we use SAP XI in this scenario?
3. Compare the capabilities of SAP XI any other top EAI middleware that you are familiar with. (Preferably SeeBeyond)
Thanks,
-Sorna

Hi,
I do not want to comment on other middlewared outright. But, I will surely share the value proposition of SAP NetWeaver in general, and XI specifically as an Integration Platform.
SAP NetWeaver offers a set of solutions for Integration at 3 levels
1. People Integration - Enterprise Portals, Multichannel Access, Mobile Infrastructure
2. Information Integration - BW, MDM, KM
3. Process Integration - XI
All these solutions work on the same Technology Platform - SAP WebAS and can talk to each other seamlessly. They are also very well integrated to SAP Solutions, hence if the back-end applications are from SAP, it gives a strong reason for the customer to choose from SAP NetWeaver stack. It will definitely have performance advantes also when talking to SAP solutions.
The second most important point is, all SAP Solutions are shipping, or will ship their Integration Content (what SAP calls Business Content) for all the various products of the SAP NetWeaver Stack, including SAP XI. This reduces the integration effort required at customer site, since the integration content is already available (atleast from one side, even if the other application is Non-SAP).
Hence, although other middlewares offers capabilities to integrate with SAP solutions, NetWeaver will reduce the TCO in this case by providing better integration, Business Content from SAP, and also support for integration content from SAP.
Warm regards,
Venki.

My two cents -
1. XI is from SAP so, no dependency on other vendor to upgrade their platform to take advantage of new features provided by SAP in newer releases.
2. For SAP centric integration, XI is not just a platform. You also get a lot of content for standard SAP centric integration scenarios and no of scenarios supported will increase over the time.
3. XI also supports BPM.
4. Support for ABAP mapping.

How to copy a structure from one SAP system to other SAP system in ABAP

Hi All,
We have a requriement where need to copy an strcture of 250 feilds from on SAP system to other SAP system , do any one know how to do it .
Regards
Channu

Channappa,
It is really not hard to manually create the structure. Ctrl-Y copy from the source system screen and paste in the target system screen. You'll have to do this one page at a time. So, you will have to repeat it 9 times (or 18 times if you have to copy/paste component list and type separately).
I can assure you that you can finish the task in less than 30 minutes.

SAP CRM Vs other CRMs

Hi can any one tell me the exact difference between SAP CRM and other CRMs like siebel CRM,peoplesoft crm etc, How SAP CRM is suitable for organizations?

HI
Basically all CRM's follows Same theory and concepts from lead stage to service contract the concepts won't change for CRM to Another CRM , only screens and configuration and Implemetation Guide changes, where as if you take siebel CRM
it's more into Technical side , very less scope for the Epople with Functional knowldge, delas with servers,data migration you need to know Vb scrpting Oracle also for Siebel, also you must have some technical knowledge , you also can be Siebel Functional called as Siebel Business Analysts , but very few like out of 100
4 may bethere hardly as business analysts, in sap crm scenario as this involves
long implementation process they need technical consultants , functional consultants separately, in siebel u must be technofunctional , but in Sap need not be,even oracle crm also u must be technonfunctional with oracle sql, pl sql and functional knowledge,People soft also techno functional with oracle , any scrpting language,but only sap crm allows you to prove your functional skills this iam saying by exp i worked on both crm/s siebel and sap siebel for 2 years sap into 3 years and now continuing,other crm's i have theoritical knowledge,Microsoft is liitle but user friendly but also needs technical skills,Product is CRM it may belongs to any company it may be a SAp, Siebel , Oracle, i think it's helpful
don't forget to give points

Settings for sending mail
Configuring SAP 4.6x Internet mail Gateway
SAP can be configured to send and receive emails from different sources.This section explains how to integrate SAPOffice with an external emailsystem. Your Internet email must be configured and running prior to this.Email from SAP is forwarded to the users external email system..
You can configure inbound and outbound forwarding. Outbound flow forwardsa SAP message (eg: update termination) via UNIX sendmail to the intended recepient. Inbound accepts a message from sendmail and places it in the users SAPOffice inbox. Many companies prefer to configure outbound only.
Configuring outbound forwarding

Problems that you might encounter :-
If you have set up a node in SCOT and it tests out well but recieve the reply.
"Cannot process message in node, parameterscannot be converted".
Make sure the RFC connection is working, and that SapConnect has been installed on the Unix Server or the Microsoft Exchange Server. Originally, I had the same error, and found that nothing had been installed on Unixor Exchange, to support SapConnect.
In SCOT (View -> System Status), your mail remains at the Intransit column.
Check you sendmail.cf files (e.g.Sun Solaris /etc/mail/sendmail.cf). Try using the sendmail command to send a test file at the Unix level. You must be able to send mail at theUnix level before you can send mail at the SAP level.

Migrate Closed Sales Data from one SAP system to Other

Hi,
We have a requirement to migrate Closed Sales Order data from one SAP System to the New SAP system.
Please share your thoughts on the considerations / DOs and Donts for such cases.
Appreciate your response.
Kind Regards,
Tanuji

Hi,
If you want to migrate closed SOs..then first consider why? and from what date i.e how long back?
Following are the considerations:
1) You can't get the creation date same as your previous system dates--this might lead to incorrect reporting. So you'll have to check if its really worth?
2) You might want to have a reference no somewhere in the new transactions from the previous system.
3) If you want to migrate the deliveries, invoices then you've to consider also GL migration as well as payments.

Raghu.

SAP client and other software on a Virtual Machine

I'm the campus coordinator for a university that is a member of the University Alliances program. This gives us the ability to put the R/3 client and other software on lab machines and also distribute it to students.
Given that we deploy in a shared lab environment on a university campus we often don't have absolute control over things like browser versions, plugins available, security settings, Java version available, and so on. We also only have the ability to do updates, installations, etc. at fixed times of the year.
As a solution for this, we're contemplating creating a virtual machine to be able to control the environment more and also allow the student greater control and customization. At this point we'd be looking at developing a Windows VM, either Vista or XP, that would have the R/3 client, IE with all the correct plugins for running Visual Composer, NetWeaver Developer Studio, and other programs such as Solution Composer. The idea would be that if we need to add a new software resource, change a version, tweak the environment, etc. we could just update and redistribute this virtual machine.
Has anyone here attempted this type of deployment? As we are just beginning, any helpful hints or advice would be appreciated.

I appreciate your willingness to think through this with me and share your expertise.

My assumption was that if we had multiple windows instances out there all with the same key (assuming non-volume key) that the piracy protection built into the OS might in some way cause problems.

I'm not sure how challenging that in fact might be. A quick Google search turned up lots of sites that at least claim to have Windows volume keys and necessary install media. I know that college students can be very adept at things in that domain.
> The biggest problem you might face is the UUID of the client instances - they will be identical. If you plan to use Active Directory functionality (for e. g. Single Sign On) then you need to make sure each VM is different (speaking of running sysprep) and that you have a different user on each VM - which will be not easy to mantain.
If I'm understanding your thought correctly, the UUID issue is why I thought attempting 1 shared OS license key for all VMs would be problematic. My assumption is that having a unique OS key on each VM would solve this problem.
As far Active Directory goes, that likely won't be an issue. Our students have storage on the campus network, but we have no plans for the VM to access that. All our SAP resources are hosted remotely at a UCC. I envision the students being able to 'boot' their VM, connect to the UCC using the client software, do their SAP work, and be done. The only storage they'd have in the VM would be a drive in the VM. While this might not work in many deployments, given our use of this just for lab instruction, I think it would work well.
> Another point to consider is: How to update? If you update your main image (e. g. necessary SAPGUI patches) - how will you distribute that to the USB-VMs - or how will you make sure the students use the latest copy?
This is where our situation and a corporate situation likely differs. Since we are hosted by a UCC that caters just to the academic environment things tend to be build and frozen during the summer and then not changed until the next year. Our classes run each semester independently. Although we may have to roll out a different VM from one semester to the next, a mid-semester change shouldn't be needed. However, having said that, if we do need to install a patch, that should be much easier. In a lab shared environment updating a software version requires a lot of coordination. In this VM situation, each students has full administrator privilege over their VM. If they need to install a patch, they can do so. If they mess this up, they haven't disrupted anyone else. In that instance they could just download the base VM again as a 'reset.'
> In such an environment I'd more think about setting up a terminal server (using Windows 2003) and install all necessary software there. With that you only need to update at one place, you can granularily give permissions to the users and supporting users in case of a proble is easier (mirroring the session) than having single instances with all the same hostname of the client. And all students only need an RDP client which comes with the Windows XP or Vista by default.
That is something we haven't considered with this project, and I'll have to check with our system manager. Resources might be an issue here. We have an abundance of PCs, so each of them running their own VM isn't an issue. I'm not sure if we have a server capable of supporting 30-40 simultaneous remote connections that is not otherwise in use.
Thanks for your ideas here Markus. Any other thoughts, ideas, etc. are most welcome. I'll also update this thread as I start experimenting with this over the next couple of weeks.

Data transfer using EDI from one SAP system to other SAP system

Dear all,
I understand that i should use normal ale-idoc features to transfer data from one sap to other sap system.
but can i transfer those idocs using EDI from one SAP to other SAP system

Hello,
surely you can do so.
EDI means that you transfer data in standardized EDI-formats. To get the data at the source into that formats you normally use an EDI-Converter, which maps the IDOC-format into the EDI-format. Then you send the data in EDI-format to an EDI-converter at the target. There's the reverse mapping. You map the EDI-Format into IDOC-format and book these IDOCs into SAP.
I think this makes only sense if you cross organizational borders within the business process, e.g., if you define an exchange with many customers, but not all of them have an SAP-system.

Move IDOC Configuration from one sap system to other sap system

Hi All,
I have a scenario where in we need to move the SAP Configuration including Port,partner funtions details etc to other Sap system .As per my knowledge we have some SAP Standard tables which stores all the SAP Config data .So my thought is that if we move those table entries from sorce sap system to target sap system the task will be completed however i dont know which table entries i need to move.Kindly suggest.
Venu

Many of these IDoc settings are not asking for transport requests, since they are considered master data (table class A). They are to be done directly in each system, because the are often linked to information that is or might be specific, like master data, logical system names, path names, etc...
Please also search for previous discussions, you are probably not the first one encountering this issue.

Any Help how to do it..

Hi Bala,
I want it to be in different database which SAP is not configured with, but called for specific tables only.
I want synchronous update in another attached database. To tell you in figure what I actually need is

SAP DB
Everything synchronous.. SAP responsibility to update the SAP database, I need when ever it tries to update the SAP DB specific tables I want synchronous update on MySQL/ Oracle . these are not configured with SAP. May I write a program calling SAP which will call whenever SAP goes for insert/update/delete and how...?

Update SAP System with other User ID (Not WF-BATCH)

Hello Experts,
Please read the below requirement and suggest me the solution:
I am implementing separation workflow for my client. Once the manager clicks on submit in MSS Portal, notification number (PCR) will be generated. User WF-BATCH starts the workflow and updates the Infotypes in SAP System. As per normal process, all the Infotypes are updated By (Changed by) user WF-BATCH in background.
As per my client requirement, the records should be updated by user BATCHUSER instead of WF-BATCH. Is it possible? How to meet this requirement? Please let me know. Thanks.
- Krishna.

Hi,
If the Infotype update via workflow, it will show WF-BATCH only. This you can't change, previously your client would have updated the Infotype via scheduling the background program through the User id BATCHUSER.
If the WF-BATCH update the right data, then there is No issue .

Hi Christoph,
We are planning to use Correspondence Monitor. We are connected to SWIFT Network through our SWIFT Bureau.
We have configured the SAP Transaction Manager system to generate the MT300/MT320 message as soon as the transaction is created and the MT message is sent to the counter party.
How do we map the incoming counter confirmation (coming from the counter party) MT300/MT320 to the outgoing correspondence object and match the details and confirm the deal?
We have licence for the SWIFT Integration package and I am not sure how it will help in updating the status in correspondence monitor.
Appreciate your help.
