Hi,
By using field sybols u can avoid
FIELD-SYMBOLS <WAGETYPES> LIKE P0008-LGA01.
DATA inc TYPE i.
DO 20 TIMES.
          inc = sy-index - 1.
          ASSIGN P0008-LGA01 INCREMENT inc TO         <WAGETYPES> RANGE P0008.

SAP Upgrade - Standard function modules & modifications

Hello everybody,
we are doing a SAP Upgrade to SAP ERP 6.0 and I need your help
Some SAP standard funcion modules were modified in the last years and some weeks ago the changes were undone. The last version of the function modules are the same than the original function modules, but the version manager shows that the last version belongs to the user FGZ583 (and not SAP).
The Problem is, that SAP deals with that function modules as a modification (because the last change was done by FGZ583?), but they are identical to the original SAP function modules.
When the Upgrade is done, the SPAU/SPDD/se95 show that function modules as "modifications", although they are the same that the original ones.
What could I do to avoid that SAP deals with that function modules as modifications?
Cheers
Prashad

Hello Prashad,
Its standard that once the object is changed the corresponding entry is recorded in different tables.Even if you roll back now system will treat as the modifications because corresponding change entries are present in the tables. You can try to activate the older versions but i don't think this will help you.
This is not a point of worry as in SPDD adn SPAU you can choose reset to original for all those objects.
Even if you can get those objects to move back to the source version they will get back to the standard in the new release.So my advise will be to let your upgrade run and then reset these objects to original.

# signs instead of polish letters ą, ę etc. after SAP upgrade.

I am not sure that it is connected with SAP upgrade see my another topic on SCN Rabax during sap gui login
Do you know what could be the reason and is it reversible? Maybe there are some settings in SAP editor?
It is nonunicode ECC 6.0 EHP6 (after upgrade). Before upgrade it was ECC 5.0.
Thanks in advance.
QAS

Hi,
Looking at the thread:
Rabax during sap gui login
it seems you have changed entries in TCPDB from 1401 to 1100.
This would explain your problem.
I would recommend to do a proper setup via report rscpinst.
Therefore you need to know how the system was setup before the upgrade.
If it was single code page with 1401, you need to maintain the used languages and the country field according to SAP note 43205 (the country setting can be found in table TCP0D in the old system).
Best regards,
Nils

This service is included as part of your annual maintenance fee.
The underlying concept of the SAP GoingLive Functional Upgrade Check is
to ensure smooth operation of your mySAP.com solution by taking action
proactively, before severe technical problems occur.
The GoingLive Functional Upgrade Check is made up of three sessions
(Planning, Analysis and Verification)two sessions (Planning and Analysis)
before the upgrade and the other (Verification) after the upgrade.
Planning Session: This session should be performed as much in advance as
possible when the upgrade is first being considered.
Analyses compatibility for the target release with regards to connected
systems in the Solution Landscape, OS version, DB version, installed Add-
Ons, Plug-ins, Country Versions, and so on.
Analysis Session: It is generally performed two months before the
production upgrade (consider lead time for hardware procurement).
The focus is on resource planning and system configuration.
There is a high-level hardware plausibility check (this is not a hardware
sizing exercise).
Potential resource bottlenecks are identified.
Necessary changes will be recommended to prepare the system for the
productive use of the new release.

SAP upgradation ?

hii
What will be the major work for MM consultant in SAP upgradation (4.5 to ECC 6.0).
What is the latest version of SAP??
Explain in more detail about MM consultant roles and responsibilities n SAP upgradation (4.5 to ECC 6.0).
Thanks

Normally upgradation project is basis driven project. Basis guys will prepare the system taking into consideration of all the aspects of the system. This itself is project called upgrade. Upgrading project mostly involves testing with the existing system with the new system. SAP already released the release notes for this Upgrading ECC 6.0{example 4.6C to ECC 6.0}. (1).Functional consultant have to do unit test/Integration test/Regression test in new system based on the business process documents prepared for your present system. (2).Functional consultant mostly encounter Interface issues (If exist)/Authorization issues/Enhanced naming issues/Usage issues. (3).Example:In older version you have to do external configuration for CIN. However .In ERP 2005, It is already in built. Hence Knowledge of CIN will be more than sufficient to manage the CIN issues. (4). More over Functional consultant must be very confident in the business process. Unless you will receive many UAT issues. (5). Whenever Functional consultant do unit test and Integration test, use user id to.When you do regression testing, get the user id from user copy all the roles from the user id and create new id. Using this new id you do the Regression testing. This will avoid many problems. (6). Another Important, big issue is patch work information. For example After release of 46C, SAP released many patches for 46C.However these patches are all not updated in to your present 46C system. These patches are already in built in ECC 6.0, hence you will get diff.result when you do testing. If such a case, advices the user about the patch work, and proceed. In most of my cases, SAP enjoyed with 46C without patch scenario, but in ECC6.0 they started to complain, b'cas the new patches.

SAP Upgrade check and safeguard service

Hi ,
We are planning to upgrade from 4.6C to ECC 6.0 . Came across these two services - SAP upgrade check and SAP safeguard services . Want to know if they are charged or it's free !!!
Many Thanks in advance
Harsh

(Chargable) SAP Safeguarding for Upgrade enables you to proactively identify and address the potential challenges associated with an upgrade, which is key to having a successful project. Because every organization
has a unique IT infrastructure and requires different levels of adjustments, testing, and training, the path to upgrade success must be determined individually.

DSL and 9.1 to 9.2 upgrade problems? Please Help!!

I have a Beige g3 - 300 w/ 160 megs of memory - using Netscape 7.02 and occasionally Gatesmess IE-5. I have had dial up for 5 years and recently upgraded to DSL w/ Linksys WRT54G router connected via ethernet cable. Wifes HP laptop uses the wireless.
Problem is when connected to the internet, I get a looong -(30 - 40 second) delay between selecting the url and the page loading with a "resolving host" message at the bottom of the page. The modem send light flashes every five seconds or so and once the system locks on the url it loads really fast. With the dialup there was no delay in finding the url but took a long time to load. Result is it takes about the same amount of time to browse now as before. I don't think the winbox is having the same problem.
To try to resolve the "resolving host" issue I have been trying to upgrade from 9.1 to 9.2. When I download the package from apple.com at the end I get a 127 error which reestablishes itself everytime I click OK til I force quit the System. When I restart the computer, the file is on desktop OS 9.2 update.smi. First I opened the file w/ stuffit 5.2 and tried to install it following the instructions (sharing off, OS 9 extensions only etc) and about 4 minutes into the process I get the Bomb error 10. I have downloaded this three times and upgraded the Stuffit to 7.03 but am having the same problem. In order to get to 9.2.2 you have to upgrade to 9.2.1 first and that is what I am doing.
Anybody have any ideas either on the "resolving host" issue or the upgrade problem.
Thanks in advance,
Beige g3 - 300mghz 160 meg memory Mac OS 9.1.x

Thanks Grant.
I read the article and it was of some help. Reference TCP/IP control panel settings. I called Commspeed support and they gave me their three current DNS numbers. I typed them per article and nothing - dead. Called them back and they gave me the typical winbox answers "No hable apple" so left to my own devices and considering the stratigies suggested in the article I did two things.
I opened the TCP/IP control panel and deleted the Name Server Address - As they are supposed to be assigned by the server. There was also a check box that said use 802.3 which was checked. I unchecked it and tried the internet. Blam it was right there. I don't know which stratigy worked as I did them simultaneously.
Still don't know about upgrading to 9.2.
Thanks again,
Bill

SCC4 - Protection against SAP upgrade

Hello guys,
i have a question regarding to the "Protection against SAP upgrade" flag in SCC4 for the client settings.
I know that this flag will make a client unusable in case of an upgrade (for example from ERP2004 to ERP2005), but what is about applying support packages?
Is this flag also valid for support packages?
The documentation about this parameter does not make a statement to this point:
> If this flag is set, the client is no longer supplied with data during SAP upgrades. After an SAP upgrade, it is not possible to work actively in the client. The flag can only be set for a test client or an SAP reference client (Early Watch).
Does SAP understand "applying support packages" as an upgrade?
Answers will be rewarded.
Regards
Stefan

No.
Applying SP is not SAP upgrade.

Can we do oracle 11g software installation in parallel to SAP upgrade

Hi Basis Expert,
I need your inputs for one of this query
The query is. Can we do oracle 11g software installation in parallel to SAP upgrade when the system is in Downtime phase.
The idea is running SAP upgrade and in parallel running oracle 11g software installation. So that we can reduced the time.
Please share your valuable inputs.
Regards,
Anil Shenoy.

yes, of course.
using different environment during the installation of the new engine, you could install the new oracle home 11 also tomorrow (including the SBP).
infact, before the ./RUNINSTALLER you have to set the environment
setenv ORACLE_HOME /oracle/SID/112_64
setenv ORACLE_HOME_SRC /oracle/SID/102_64
setenv ORACLE_HOME_TGT /oracle/SID/11202
setenv LIBPATH $ORACLE_HOME/lib:$LIBPATH
setenv PATH /oracle/SID/112_64/bin: $PATH

If the project is of technical up gradation then with no functionality changed, Then the job of abap consultant is critical, right from creating spdd and spau, interfaces, debug the new programs and fix the bugs if exists in the new programs. The functional consultant has to test the new system from functions point of view; functional consultant is responsible for taking user acceptance test before going on live to the new system.

SAP upgrade - questions for report painter and query

Hi Experts,
I have two quwstions of SAP upgrade.
My requirement is: SAP upgrade from 4.6B to ECC 6.0 with non-unicode.
1.Does SAP upgrade influence the report painter? If influence, could you tell me what should I do for this case.
2. We have so many queries (SQ01) in our system and many of them haven't been run for a long time. we need a tool to get the runtimes of queries in a certain durition.
For example: From 2008/01/01 to 2008/03/31,I want to know how many queries had been run/ query name/ runtimes of each query.
Best regards,

> 1.Does SAP upgrade influence the report painter? If influence, could you tell me what should I do for this case.
You can check
Note 1155524 - ReportWriter: Upgrade Issues ECC6.0 -Common Customer Issues
> 2. We have so many queries (SQ01) in our system and many of them haven't been run for a long time. we need a tool to get the runtimes of queries in a certain durition.
Such a tool was RBE (Reverse Business Engineer) - which is out of support.
You can try to get that information from ST03. If that is not enough there's no other way than booking an SLO service to find out the queries that have not been used (http://service.sap.com/slo).
