Scripts in RMS Data conversion Op Guide

Hi experts,
Do you know where to find all the scripts needed in the Data Conversion Operations Guide? Scripts like
dbc_create_uda_tab.sql
dbc_create_uda_values_tab.sql
Thanks You.

Hi,
When you talk about GL-Data it is the trial balance to be loaded from legacy to oracle applications.
You can use Web-ADI to upload it ,the check list are
The balance for each account comibnation in the legacy system to be mapped to GL-Oracle code combination balance
With respect to open AR, AP Invoices if the invoices are converted using a control account for migration in GL then
the the balance transfered from AP,AR need not be reversed in GL from the source receivables and payables.
In case if the same account combination are for migrating the balances from AP,AR to GL ..Then the balances transferred from AP,AR should be reversed ..so that it does not affect the TB-GL-Balance
Finally ensure that the balance for the TB-tallys with your legacy system and upload it using Web-ADI ,import and
review and post it.
Hope this points helps your GL-Data conversion.

Data conversion ECC 6.0 Upgrade

Hi SAP Guru's.
My Client is intend to do a ECC6.0 Upgrade from 4.6. My goal is find out is there any data conversion requirement is needed for the project. My Client is doing a technical upgrade and then a full upgrade. Can anybody guide me what are the possible data conversions we can expect for the upgrade.
Thanks
SN

Dear Sankara,
When it is a technical upgrade from a lower version to ECC6.0, many objects like includes, Function modules, reports, OSS notes, DDIC objects, BDC/Print programs, SAP scripts, screens will get affected due to the upgradation. So we need to check with all these objects.
We will encounter short dumps while executing certain programs. This may be due to the usage of obsolete function modules or Unicode errors.
The BDCs in the upgraded version will become defective as many of its screen field names will be changed during version change.
Program texts of many programs will be lost. They have to be restored.
In case of tables, enhancement category has to be provided.
There is a possibility of losing the variants during upgradation. So care should be taken to retain them before upgradation.
ECC6.0 is case sensitive, so many of the interface programs will fail to transfer (FTP) files between systems. These objects have to be changed so that the commands passed to the external system be UPPERCASE.
So a developer should be aware of the following:
Unicode programming is followed in ECC6.0. So we need to be aware of it to rectify certain Unicode errors which are likely to occur.
You have to run the transactions SPAU & SPDD to check for list of standard & custom objects that needs modification in the upgraded version.
Check the below link to find more details on usage of SPAU & SPDD transactions
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw2004s/helpdata/en/60/d6ba7bceda11d1953a0000e82de14a/content.htm
Should be aware of the objects that have become obsolete in ECC6.0. They have to be replaced by appropriate ones.For eg.:
--> The WS_* function modules have been replaced by GUI_* FMs in ECC6.0 as WS_* FMs have become obsolete from 4.7
-->Tables like TVARV & TTREX have been replaced by TVARVC & TTREXN respectively in ECC6.0.
In case of tables, we need to specify the Enhancement category.
Due to upgradation, we will lose out some variants. So we should take a back-up before proceeding with the upgradation.
In case of BDC programs, some field names will be changed. So they have to be named appropriately.
Please check with the below links for more details:

GL Data Conversion from Legacy to Oracle EBS

Hi All,
I am tasked with converting legacy data into GL. I have worked on other conversions like supplier, AR and AP conversions but never worked on GL conversion, so I don't know how and where to start, what are the pre-requisites for entering data into gl_interface table how to ensure that data is correct in the .csv file etc.
Kindly request you all to guide me in right direction. Hope to hear from you all very soon!!! :)

Data Conversion issue

Hello I'm new to Oracle DB and still learn SQL.
I have a problem with data conversion in a CASE expression.
Example:
select ... ,
CASE column WHEN 1 THEN
select max(column)
from table
where ...
ELSE 0 END AS value,
from     ...
where ...
order by ...
What I'm basically intend to do is to select a value from another table depending on the value of
a special column.
The problem now is that the
select max(column)
from table
where ...
statement in its original form selects the right value as float (e.g. 0.24)which I need.
But the same statement embedded in the CASE expression returns (e.g. 0 ) which seems to be the same result converted to an integer or something.
I tried to convert the result in the CASE expression but without success.
Does anybody know what could cause this behavior and how to fix it ?
Thanks for any help with this.

Welcome to the forum!
Whenever you have a problem, post a complete script that people can run to re-create the problem. Include CREATE TABLE and INSERT statements for a little sample data if necessary. (A lot of folks show the problem using commonly available tables, such as those in the scott or hr schemas, so they don't have to post any sample data.)
if your problem involves an error message, post the complete error message you're getting, including line numbers.
Always say which version of Oracle you're using, e.g. 10.2.0.1.0.
Sorry, I can't re-create the problem.
I did something as similar as I could to what you posted:
SELECT       deptno
,       CASE deptno
          WHEN 10
          THEN (
               SELECT MAX (sal)
               FROM     scott.emp
               WHERE     deptno     = d.deptno
          ELSE 0
       END          AS value
,       dname
FROM       scott.dept     d
WHERE       deptno     <= 30
ORDER BY deptno
;And it ran, producing this output:
`   DEPTNO      VALUE DNAME
        10       5000 ACCOUNTING
        20          0 RESEARCH
        30          0 SALES

Bulk load data conversion error (type mismatch or invalid character for the specified codepage) for row 1, column 3 (NumberOfMultipleMatches).

Hi,
I have a file where fields are wrapped with ".
=========== file sample
"asdsa","asdsadasdas","1123"
"asdsa","asdsadasdas","1123"
"asdsa","asdsadasdas","1123"
"asdsa","asdsadasdas","1123"
==========
I am having a .net method to remove the wrap characters and write out a file without wrap characters.
======================
asdsa,asdsadasdas,1123
asdsa,asdsadasdas,1123
asdsa,asdsadasdas,1123
asdsa,asdsadasdas,1123
======================
the .net code is here.
========================================
public static string RemoveCharacter(string sFileName, char cRemoveChar)
object objLock = new object();
//VirtualStream objInputStream = null;
//VirtualStream objOutStream = null;
FileStream objInputFile = null, objOutFile = null;
lock(objLock)
try
objInputFile = new FileStream(sFileName, FileMode.Open);
//objInputStream = new VirtualStream(objInputFile);
objOutFile = new FileStream(sFileName.Substring(0, sFileName.LastIndexOf('\\')) + "\\" + Guid.NewGuid().ToString(), FileMode.Create);
//objOutStream = new VirtualStream(objOutFile);
int nByteRead;
while ((nByteRead = objInputFile.ReadByte()) != -1)
if (nByteRead != (int)cRemoveChar)
objOutFile.WriteByte((byte)nByteRead);
finally
objInputFile.Close();
objOutFile.Close();
return sFileName.Substring(0, sFileName.LastIndexOf('\\')) + "\\" + Guid.NewGuid().ToString();
==================================
however when I run the bulk load utility I get the error
=======================================
Bulk load data conversion error (type mismatch or invalid character for the specified codepage) for row 1, column 3 (NumberOfMultipleMatches).
==========================================
the bulk insert statement is as follows
=========================================
BULK INSERT Temp
FROM '<file name>' WITH
FIELDTERMINATOR = ','
, KEEPNULLS
==========================================
Does anybody know what is happening and what needs to be done ?
PLEASE HELP
Thanks in advance
Vikram

To load that file with BULK INSERT, use this format file:
9.0
4
1 SQLCHAR 0 0 "\"" 0 "" ""
2 SQLCHAR 0 0 "\",\"" 1 col1 Latin1_General_CI_AS
3 SQLCHAR 0 0 "\",\"" 2 col2 Latin1_General_CI_AS
4 SQLCHAR 0 0 "\"\r\n" 3 col3 Latin1_General_CI_AS
Note that the format file defines four fields while the fileonly seems to have three. The format file defines an empty field before the first quote.
Or, since you already have a .NET program, use a stored procedure with table-valued parameter instead. I have an example of how to do this here:

Script Logic VS Data Transformation File

Hi all,
   I'm new to SAP BPC. I have knowledge of SAP BW.
   I can see conversion file, which we are referring in data transformation file. which we can use for mapping and conversion of external data into internal data.
How data transformation file different form script logic? Are we going to refer script logis in Data transformation file for each required dimension?
Can any of you give me clarity on how to place script logic and data transformation file in BPC data management flow.
I will really applicate all your help!!!
Thanks
Ben.

Nilanjan,
   I have a another quick question...
suppose my bpc application has 5 dimensions. Out of the 5 dimensions, 4 dimensions data i'm getting directly from SAP BW. assume 1 dim, i need to extract by doing look up at different table which also reside in BW.
   how to populate data for DIM 5.
   I got your point that data transformation file purely for field mapping. suppose DIM5 if i want to populate from script logic, wht do i need map in Transformation file. I hope you got my point.
   My question if how to populate a DIM in BPC using lookup approach.
Thanks,
Ben.

HR Master Data conversion-SAP Best Practices

Hello there,
We would like to use the SAP Best Practices for HR Master Data conversion.
Now we want leverage the SAP Best practices to convert the Master data. Could any one explain in detail how to do the same.
How to install the Best Practices only to the extent of the Data conversion. We don't want to use the rest of the Best Practicies.
I know there are some notes out there.
Any help on the above highly appriciated.

HI,
I am not v sure if u can install only the required component. But there would be some pre requisites for every installation.
It will be clearly mentioned in the base line
Also Check if its available for the country which ur currently working...
Use the ECATT: Test Configuratio & Test Scripts
Pls revert in case u need further more details..

Unable to Merge after Data Conversion

I read entry with the similar solution of adding a script component after the data conversion, but I am not finding all the properties that were referenced in that solution. Was this perhaps on a 2005 SSIS job?
I never saw a way to set the script component as Asynchronous. I was only given the choices of None or input (Input 0) for the SynchronousInputID property of the output. The only column having a SortKeyPosition is the Input Column and that property
is grayed out. I did not find a way to "add an override for ProcessInputRow". It looks like there is a method Output0Buffer.AddRow that is called from somewhere in the script, but all the method stubs have been removed. So is there
supposed to be a main() method or something in which to enter this Output0Buffer.AddRow method.
I don't deal with the script component normally and I need a little detail if possible. Thanks.

First, you set the SynchronousInputID to None to create an Asynchronous script component.
Next, once you have set the output to be Asynchronous, you add the columns to that output. Then there are two methods you can use to add rows to that output:
public override void Input0_ProcessInputRow(Input0Buffer Row)
Output0Buffer.AddRow();
Output0Buffer.Test = Row.Column + 1;
public override void CreateNewOutputRows()
base.CreateNewOutputRows();
for (int i = 100; i < 110; i++)
Output0Buffer.AddRow();
Output0Buffer.Test = i;
The first, xxx_ProcessInputRow is the more normal. This is what you would use if you want to populate your output with values from the input. If you want to start from scratch, with no influence from the input, then override CreateNewOutputRows.
I can't think of a compelling reason to use the latter.

SLO and data conversion

I read thru the guides for SLO and get the impression that SLO can be used to do data conversion.
For example, it can convert an Oracle DB based non-SAP system into an SAP client.
Is this true?
Our company hires tons of high level consultants to convert non SAP HR systems into SAP HR
systems.
With the magic box SLO, all consultants are no longer needed?
Thanks!

SLO helps us to convert Object's Values which are no longer required or needs to be modified to harmonies the system.
For e.g. in 2012 we had Sales Orgs BBS, BBK, JJG etc. and now we want to merge these orgs to meaningful Org like BB01 and BB02, then this can be achieved by SLO.
SAP will help you to achieve this. SLO team will run the Programs on your production systems, and it will change the values on table level.
We on the other hand need to adept the custom conversions if any. And validate the data after conversion.
In your case, I don't think SLO is helpful.
Thanks,
Jaydip Patel

Data conversion strategy for new SOB

Dear Viewers
on 11.5.10
We are creating a new SOB with a change in currency from Feb-11 as this is the requirement
For the same, we need to do data conversion.
I have a confusion for Purchase Orders and Sales Orders
Purchase Orders:
Open purchase orders will be converted, means the unfulfilled PO`s i.e the ones not received and are fully open.
The PO`s which have been recieved but not delivered, Requested the users to clear the intransit receipts.
The PO's which are partially received, what to be done for them?
If a PO is fully received and Delivered will not me converted to the new SOB as its not an open PO
but If invoice comes after Feb-11, than how the matching will be done?
What if a return has to be made moving forward in FEB-11 under new SOB
Sales Orders:
Open sales orders will be converted, that is the ones that have been entered and not yet booked.
Users have been requested to clear off the Sales order lines which are already pick confirmed but not yet shipped, hence they will be shipped and interfaced to AR
For the Sales orders that have been booked, those lines that are not yet processed further will also be converted.
Now what if a receipt comes after feb 11, how to handle this as the sales order wiould not have been converted?
Please give your advise on the data migration strategy for PO`s and SO's.
Please do add any point that may have been missed by me
Appreciate your help
Thanks
Emm

Hi David,
for master data conversion you can use LSMW and the RE-FX BAPIs. (please refer to SAP note [782947|https://service.sap.com/sap/support/notes/782947] ).

Otherwise if it has to be converted identifying the POs under this scenario, you may consider converting those maintaining receipt close tolerance as 100% and matching type as 2 -way (again business approval needed to handle audit issues) in order to avoid the receipts/delivery conversion etc.<br>
What if a return has to be made moving forward in FEB-11 under new SOB<br>Ideally returns can be done using Miscellaneous/Account Alias Issues specifying the appropriate transaction reasons to clarify the scenario.<br>

Report Script returns no data and "java.io.FileNotFoundException" error

When attempting to write to a new file (Eg: C:\TEST.txt), Report Script returns no data and "java.io.FileNotFoundException" error occurs.
This error occurs only in Essbase 9.3.1.3 release, however it works fine in release 9.3.1.0.
After running the report the script, it pops up the follwing message:
"java.io.FileNotFoundException: ..\temp\eas17109.tmp (The system cannot find the file specified): C:\TEST.txt"
When checked the TEST.txt, it was empty.

Sorry folks, I just found out the reason. Its because there was no data in the combination what I was extracting.
but is this the right error message for that? It should have atleast create a blank file right?
