SP SAPKH47026 and change in structure of VBAK, VBUK ,BKPF

Hi All,
We are currently on SAP R3 Enterprise 4.7 at an APPL level of 22.
We are planning to move to SAP_APPL level 26. In fact I have already applied the relevant support packs in our sandbox system.
I have checked out the objects contained in the APPL support packs 23 to 26 and have found certain changes that concern me. The structures of the following tables change:- VBAK, VBUK and BKPF.
Now these tables are of the following sizes in our production system.
VBAK => 4 GB
VBUK => 6 GB
BKPF => 20 GB
I have no other system that comes anywhere close to the production system in size. Total production system DB size is 2.8 TB.
I checked out the logs that are generated during the import in our sandbox system and found that the following is fired to change the table structures.
for eg for BKPF
ALTER TABLE "BKPF"
ADD ("XBLNR_ALT" VARCHAR2 (000026) )
what I would like to know from the Oracle experts out there is what are the requirements that would be needed when these SPs are imported?
what extent of space would be consumed in PSAPBTABD/ PSAPTEMP/ PSAPUNDO etc ?
thanks and regards,
Kevin Hill

Hi ,
To read data from the application server you need to use the
OPEN DATASET statement .
Please check the help on it and try to implemnet in your program in place of GUI_UPLOAD function.

  • Fields missing in MPD report after change to structure and program

    I have been working on a consistency report for transaction MPD.
    I had created a structure in SE11 for handling the data.  it was all working, but then i had to go and change the name of the fields in the structure.  Now those fields are missing from the report. 
    When i step through the debugger, all the fields are being populated correctly, but these fields are not displayed on screen.  if i change the field names back in the structure and change the code for populating these fields, they appear okay.
    i have created a custom implementation within BAdi MPD_WKB_REPORTING. 
    i have checked the config and it all points to my Z Structure and Z Table Type.  I have logged off and logged back on!  made sure my code is saved and activated...
    any ideas on how i can display these new fields names/values?
    Just for clarity, the field name has changed. not the linked data type.

    thanks for your response, however those notes and program have not done anything to assist my issue.
    i have found the anwser now!
    within the BAdi was a method i had to amend:  IF_EX_MPD_WKB_REPORTING~GET_ALV_PARAMETERS 
    all fixed now!

  • Creation and change customer master in same LSMW

    Hi Experts,
    I have a created customer master uploading using batch input recording in lsmw.
    Now i have scenario like if the customer already exists i need to change that customer accordingly.
    I hope most of u would have come across such issue,for time being i tried makin 2 recordings for creation(XD01) and change(XD02)
    after assigning 2 structures for each creation and change, but i don know where to check whether the customer already exists and how to skip respective recordings....
    Pl suggest steps after this, if this one correct........
    Or if there any alter method pl do suggest me..
    Pts will rewarded immly.
    Regards,
    Dilip

    Hi,
    In the begin of record, you can check whether a cust already exist in the system. Based upon the result you can change the Tab Name and Tcode.
    Just give this a try.

  • Infospoke BADI -- no change in structure?

    Hello Experts,
    We have three fields in: rsbo > edit infospoke INF1> transform
    1) Source structure
    2) Target structure
    3) Addin Implementation.
    -- I want to create a BADI and do not want to change the structure. But set some values in another table when INF1 is run.
    -- Wondering if it is still possible to use BADI in this situation.
    -- So can i leave the target structure blank or repeat it with the source structure itself.
    Thanks,
    Sweatha

    You need to fill it with the source structure in the definition and move the fields in your implementation (probably by move-corresponding). Otherwise you're free to fill as many other database tables as you like.

  • How to create a New Tranport Request for changed  Extract structure

    How to create a New Tranport Request for changed  Extract structure ?
    Hi Experts,
    I have a FI AP Generic Datasource containing extract structure with appended fields.
    It has already been activated and transported to Testing System.
    Now, I am to create a new transport request for this DataSource and Extract structure.
    I do not want to delete and recreate the Generic Datasource.
    I am trying to look at the options in the extract structure top menu from where I can create a new Tranport Request.
    Please let me know the steps
    URGENT

    Hi Dev,
    Once you send the transport request for any data source from Dev to Testing you wont find that again in your Dev (I mean the TR). So, when you change anything for this data source or view now in Dev and try to save it, it will ask for a new transport request and here you can mention a new one starting from View then activate it and go to RSO2 regenerate it and use the same transport request for this too. When you transport this TR to Testing Environment the data source will automatically get changed.
    Hope it helps...

  • Changing data structure in the receiver SOAP adapter

    I was wondering whether it is possible to have changing data structure in terms of one receiver SOAP adapter so I could sent data type 1 and 2 to a single XI web service enabled URL and make conditional parsing in terms of the received message ?
    I have a receiver SOAP adapter that ideally should be able to receive two different types of messages. But SOAP adapter is fixed to a sigle message interface that naturally has it's data structure set to just one type. I can just create conditions in terms of the data type 1 message that has been defined in the design side.
    Is it possible achieve this with just one SOAP receiver adapter?

  • Changing directory structure & song file locations: iTunes query

    I have an external hard-drive which I have loaded with thousands of songs over the years but have never really used it. Now, I want to organise my iTunes songs but my limited knowledge has brought me to a stop... Please help!
    On the external HDD, songs are located all over the place - the directory structure is bad - and I want to simplify it under a new structure. Some songs are also on my iMac's HDD which I also want to centralise on the external HDD. What is the best way to do this?
    Also, I don't have any play lists organised so I don't mind if I loose the library information and start again UNLESS the library information also includes SONG information (artist, title, etc.). Could it be a good idea, then, that I simply start again? Specifically:
    1. Can I just use Finder to move files around and change the directory structure on the external HDD?
    2. Can I start from scratch and copy all the music files onto a new external HDD with the new, simple directory structure I want and then re-point iTunes using the "iTunes media folder location" tab? Will I lose all the song file information?
    3. What do I do with the iTunes library? Is it best to "reset" the library somehow or should I do all of this moving using iTunes and therefore avoiding dealing with the library file?
    Thanks!!!

    you could use finder, but it would be far better if you'd let iTunes handle the moving and organizing.
    2. Can I start from scratch and copy all the music files onto a new external HDD with the new, simple directory structure I want and then re-point iTunes using the "iTunes media folder location" tab? Will I lose all the song file information?
    if you want to start from scratch, i would leave the files where they currently are. again, let iTunes handle it (see below).
    3. What do I do with the iTunes library? Is it best to "reset" the library somehow or should I do all of this moving using iTunes and therefore avoiding dealing with the library file?
    i would start over. launch iTunes with the option key pressed. click on +create library+. in iTunes, go preferences > advanced and point iTunes to the desired location (i.e. your external drive). in the same tab, disable +copy files to iTunes media folder when adding to library+ temporarily.
    now start adding content (file > add to library). when done, go back to preferences > advanced and re-enable +copy files to iTunes media folder when adding to library+. next, go file > library > organize library and select both options like so
    hit ok. iTunes will now move files as necessary and organize them. when finished, your iTunes music folder on the external drive will look like this
    none of your music files will be renamed. artwork you added manually will be retained, however, artwork that came with purchases from the iTunes store may be lost. that can easily be added later on though.
    post back if you need further advice.
    good luck !

  • Change Directory Structure Created in MPZIP file

    I'm trying to standardize my Multisim projects for inclusion in our documentation control system. As I build my project, I have a directory structure that I'm using. When I include the files in the project, the directory structure is remembered in the MPZIP file. However, the default is to unpack all files into the External(Project Name) folder. Following the help, 
    Extracted Path—The location to which the files will be extracted. The default is <project name>External\filename, for example project1External\amplifier.ms12. Use the drop-down lists in the Extracted Path column to select other locations as desired. 
    I can go in and change the directory path of each file using pull-down boxes. This makes  a manual process and if I include datasheets, specifications, and dxf files, is quite time intensive. Is there a way to default to having the project to unpack to the old directory structure? Is there some other way to automate the unpacking? I can manually zip the old project structure, but other than the form of the directories, the MPZIP is so convenient.
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    Hi Doug,
    When you unpack the project, the default is to create a new folder and put everything together since it is unlikely that the new computer will have the same file structure as the computer where this project came from.  If you want Multisim to create the same file structure as the original, you can click in the cell under "extracted path" and select the old path, if the folder doesn't exist, Multisim will create one.  Unfortunately, you will have to do this for each item on the table.

  • RAID reconfiguration and change to GPT

    Hi I have 2x HP DL 380 G6 Servers with Windows 2008 R2 Datacenter and Windows server 2012 R2 datacenter which are hyper V servers. Until now everything was fitting 2TB RAID 5 . Recently I added new HDDs and nothing above 2TB is recognized. I assume that
    it is because at the beginning I formatted drive as MBR. Now I assume that I need to convert to GPT. 
    The question is what would you do (or even better what you did and your experience in that manner) 
    Online conversion MBR to GPT with some software (if you have any proposal I would be thankful)
    Offline conversion - to delete and recreate raid format as GPT .......

    I don't think it's possible to perform an online conversion from MBR to GPT.  You are changing the structure of on-disk partitions.  Backup.  Re-initialize/format.  Restore.
    You might be able to find some third-party tool that says it can do it.  But, it's your data.

  • CRMD_ORDER: how to set default values for Requester and Change Manager

    Hello Folks,
    how do I set default values in TA crmd_order?
    I drew my organizational hierarchy using TAs bp and ppoma_crm.
    When a new Change Request (e. g. SDHF) is created, I want the four roles (Requester, Change Manager, IT Operator and Developer) to be set automatically, not manually.
    Both Requester (= Key User) and Change Manager are derivable. I did not find anything in SPRO neither in the OSS neither here.
    Points will be rewarded as a matter of course!
    Thanx in advance!

    Hi Dirk,
    look for Define Access Sequence & Define Partner Determination Procedure in SPRO and read the IMG Activity Documentation. You can find it in the Service Desk config, but it works for the other transaction types too.
    Basically, you create Access Sequences where you tell the Partner Determination Procedure where to look for the values for the Partner Function fields.
    The Access Sequence can use lots of sources for the information, including your org structure.

  • Change of structure of database table

    A custom database table has been created and is already in use by 10 programs. Now a new requirement has come to add a field i.e. a check box to the database table to be used by one of the 10 programs. Can we change the structure of the database table after activating it and when the table is in use? Please provide me inputs on this.
    Thanks and regards

    Yes. U can change it. But I suggest u to do it through the process of 'Append Structure'.

  • Fragents and Change Orders

    I'm new to P3. I need to manage a large 2 year public
    works building construction schedule in downtown Los
    Angeles, with numerous and frequent changes to the
    schedule due to change orders, RFI's etc. Of course, these
    changes result in increases/decreases to cost and time,
    which need to be monitored and dealt with as part of the
    overall project. Some say that fragnets are the best way
    to insert these changes into the schedule. Some say
    fragnets are problematic. I have no experience with
    fragnets and I want to get off on the right foot. What
    have you project managers and project engineers found most
    effective for inserting and managing change order and RFI
    items?

    Nat:
    Thank you very much for
    your response.
    Your
    explanation of fragnets was very useful. I will make a
    point of saving and reusing repetitive groups of
    activities. In my case, SOMD (slab-on-metal-deck) is
    very repetitive. Also, exterior building finishes such
    as plaster (exterior sheathing, lath, scratch coat,
    brown coat, cure, finish coat, cleanup). Interior
    finishes activities are also often identical from
    floor to floor.
    The issue with
    RFI's is usually not so critical. I mentioned 1200
    RFI's but relatively few impact the schedule and must
    be coded in. But it is more than 48. In my case, the
    most common reason for entering an RFI into the
    schedule is when the
    consultant/Architect/Engineer/State Agency exceeds the
    contractually agreed upon time limit for response to a
    design-related RFI, or his response is irrelevant
    requiring a second round of RFI's to resolve the
    problem (revise and resubmit for title-block
    exceptions, for example, happens frequently). <br
    />
    It is easy to ignore these delays,
    and recording them in the schedule can really irritate
    the consultant, but when they become a habit, the
    cumulative impact on the schedule can be significant.
    Therefore, I need to be able to track these RFI delays
    effectively within the schedule. Of course, an RFI
    always has a number that is tracked inside Expedition
    as well.
    The bigger problem is
    Change Orders. As you know, when the Owner wants
    something added to the work, or a problem in the
    design results in an increase in the scope of work
    (there are many other possible reasons of course) a CO
    is requested. As a general rule, most change orders
    contain both a cost increase as well as a time
    extension. This time extension is the problem,
    because, especially on public works projects, the
    Owner/CM does not want to grant time an extension, and
    even when they do, they will only grant it when it
    impacts the critical path, and only after there is no
    float remaining (you will see why this distinction is
    important as you read further). The critical path
    condition makes sense, but the idea that my float is
    the Owner's to eat for his CO work is grating,
    especially when facing potential LD's. <br
    />
    To top it off, some Owners/CMs insist
    that all time delays be dealt with at the end of the
    project, when the actual time delay resulting from a
    CO can be calculated, instead of simply estimated, as
    is common practice (corresponding language is inserted
    into the CO to that effect instead of a defined time
    extension). My position is that if they refuse to
    grant a time extension based on an estimate, then the
    cost given in the CO, which is nothing more than an
    estimate, should also be replaced with T&M, and
    the budget be damned. Needless to say, that position
    has not won me many friends in the trailer across the
    way.
    You might suggest that we
    should refuse the extra work if a time extension is
    not granted up front. If we did that, they would hit
    our bond in a heartbeat. A contractor's lot in life
    seems to be to make lawyers (Deo volente, may the burn
    in hell) wealthy.
    In the case
    of the Owner/CM refusing to grant time for
    non-critical path CO's, my position is that, while the
    CO work may not be on the critical path this instant,
    in many cases, the critical path can change
    dramatically, sucking CO work into it that was
    previously separated from it by weeks. That very thing
    has happened on a school project located in a major
    city we are doing.
    The project
    has extensive tubular secondary steel at the exterior
    of the two buildings. This tube steel, ranging in size
    from 4" diameter to 20" diameter curves around, and up
    and down, the exterior of the structure. I do not
    exaggerate when I say that it is more complicated than
    a roller coaster. I will send pictures if you are
    interested. It supports curvilinear LG framing, which
    in turn supports a combination of plaster, brick
    veneer and metal panels. Very phantasmagorical stuff.
    Being a complicated 3-D arrangement of rigid steel,
    the architect's drawings were incomplete, (we should
    have expected that) and changed frequently (4 times)
    during fabrication, resulting in detailing problems
    and a two month delay in erection. Lots of unforeseen,
    fit-scribe-cut-repeat of long, heavy, curved, twisting
    pieces of long steel hanging from crane hooks has been
    required.
    We have recovered
    most of that time, but only by doing a great deal of
    out-of-sequence work.
    As you
    can imagine, this mess generated a ton of CO's, but
    the Owner would not agree to grant time extensions
    until the end of the project, and even then, only on
    CO's that are provably on the critical path. When
    combined with electrical changes impacting utility
    buildings, cable pulls, elevators, manlift and even
    exterior finishes, and then with added off-site work,
    topped off by submittal-review delays by State
    agencies, the critical path has flapped around like a
    flag in the wind, with CO's going in and out of it. In
    many cases, this means that a particular item of
    ongoing CO work has delayed the critical path for a
    period of time, but not for the entire duration of the
    CO work. So calculating the exact impact of the CO
    during the period it was on the critical path has not
    been easy.
    I anticipate there
    will be huge disagreement about these calculations at
    the end of the project when we have the "come to
    Jesus" time/money resolution meeting with the
    Owner/CM.
    BTW, the CM always
    insists that CO's be dealt with as fragnets, but that
    doesn't always make sense because the nature of CO
    work is often one-of-a kind, not repetitive stuff. But
    he has fragnets on the brain, it seems, so we call
    them fragnets to humor him.
    <br
    />Anyway, as you can imagine, tracking the dynamic
    (vs. static) effect of CO's on the schedule has been
    difficult. I am almost tempted to try calculus methods
    to calculate time consumed over time (if you get my
    meaning). Any experience analyzing schedules using
    differential equations? Someone must have done it
    before....
    Right now I am
    using activity codes to track them, but I am wondering
    if there is a better way.
    <br
    />
    I have other projects, without the
    same delays, but similar Owner/CM mindset regarding
    CO's
    Now you know the long
    story. Any suggestions?
    <br
    />Stan
