SRM Client Copy

Hi everyone,
Our SRM Production client is copied to SRM Test client.. Now i need to make the test client's configuration again ( integration with r3 , material replication , vendor replication... )
But in the test client, all master data is the same as in the production and for master data, backend system is R3 production client.. I need to replicate all master data, product categories, hierarchy.. again for R3 test client and remove the others (master data came from R3 production).. how should i do that ? which way should i follow ?
Thanks,

Hi
You do not need to replicate all data again, if the same data is existing in your backend system for the Test client. Just ask your basis team to run BDLS txn in the test client system which would adjust the production backend system to the test backend system. Also ask them to create RFC destinations to new backend system.
Also check 'Define backend systems' setting in your test client. You would need to modify it manually to new values.

Scc4 local client copy SRM 7

Hi Experts
I will do a client copy in SRM 7.
First I am logged in client 001 with User= SAP* and Password= 06071992.
I have created a new client named 300 with SCC4.
Logon to the newly created client 300 with User= SAP* and PW= 06071992 as password doesn't work.
I have also tried PASS as password without any success. How can I ever access into client 300.
Please advice

Dear Experts I could fix the problem.
I have set the parameter to zero. Privously it was set to 1.

Client Copy SRM from prod to dev -Urgent

We have done the client copy and trying to change the logical system names. We are in the process of changing the SPRO-> Account Assignment -> Define G/L Account for Prod Cat and A/C Assignment Cat
We want to change the source system but it is not enabled even in change mode. Only the G/L Account is enabled for change.
We will have to change in 2 to 3 more places
How do others do when it comes to client copy and change of logical names. Use BDLS or make is it because we have some missing roles hence the field is protected?
Any help/
Thanks

Hi
This is standard SAP functionality. The table which holds the data for
"Define G/L Account for Prod Cat and A/C Assignment Cat" is BBP_DET_ACCOUNT and it holds data in similar manner.
Since other fields except the GL account, are key fields, these are not coming as enabled in change mode. There is no problem with any settings as such.
Since you want to make chnages in 2 to 3 more places(better approach using create template functionality, firstly copy the existing entries and make changes to them and finally, delete the existing extra unrequired entries in the table.
1. Either using the SPRO path
SPRO-> Account Assignment -> Define G/L Account for Prod Cat and A/C Assignment Categories
2. Or using SM30 transaction for the table - BBP_DET_ACCOUNT table
Hope this will definitely help. Do let me know.

Client Copy back-end system

Hi Guys,
We have made a client copy of the back-end system of SRM (SRM 5.0). Only the back-end and not SRM has been copied.
After replication all the master- and customizing data again to SRM from the 'new' back-end I have found an issue with updating the suppliers.
It seems that I can not remove old business partners from SRM with BUPA_TEST_DELETE if these are used already in SC's. However the new copy of the back-end system has completely different suppliers we need to use in SRM. This causes for an inconsistency with the supplier numbers, as we want to keep the R/3 numbers in SRM.
Does anyone has a good idea how to proceed? That is, how can I remove the business partners (suppliers) in SRM which were used before the client copy of R/3, so that I will be able to completely get all the relevant 'new' vendors from the R/3 system after the client copy.
When I execute BUPA_TEST_DELETE it will end up in error saying the suppliers can not be removed. Do I need to archive all the old documents (SC & PO) before I can remove all vendors in SRM, or is there a way to force the removal of all the business partners from before the back-end client copy?
Thx.
Skander

Hi,
I already figured out how to solve the issue.
For anyone who wants to know how to:
-First clear the vendor groups in the vendor hierarchy; do not renove the root node
-Then run BBPGETVD which will get you the new vendors from the back-end; for me only role LF for suppliers.
-Then run BBPUPDVD which will update all the fields for the old business partner numbers in SRM which were used in documents, and replicated from the old back-end system.
In my case I had to play a litlebit with the setting 'only creditors', to update BP numbers which were not suppliers in the new back-end.
After performing these steps everything should be fine.
So it's perfectly possible to make a client copy of only the back-end system without copying SRM (in the classic scenario that is).

Logical system name to be updated while client copy--URGENT HELP REQUIRED

Hello All,
I have a query regarding the "Logical System name" updation during Client copy.
When we make a client copy(SRM Masters) for the Production system(SRM),the Old Logical system name for backend(which is attached to the SRM masters) gets copied to the new Client (Copy) which needs to be updated.
There is a std transaction BDLS through whcih w e can change the current Logical system name to a new one but this seems to work fine for System copy but not for Client copy.
So when i make a client copy of SRM masters for Production system,is there any other std way wherein i can change the "Logical system name " for the backend or do i have to write a CUSTOM program wherein entries for the Backend Logical system name in tables like CRMMLSGUID will be updated with the new Logical system name?
Any help on this is appreciated.
Thanks & Regards,
Disha.

Disha,
Yes, I did it twice and it worked fine.
The R/3 GUID is sent by the OLTP system (R/3) in R/3 message header.
SRM checks this GUID in CRMMLSGUID table.
If is not the same one, then replication process fails.
The only solution I found was to delete this entry. It is automatically recreated with the new GUID with the next replication, with FM CRMT_OLTP_LOGSYS1, called in BAPI_CRM_SAVE.
Look at OSS note 588701 & 765018 for deletion of CRMMLSGUID.
The issue is exactly ours: around system/client copy.
In an CRM environment, this is more critical, because we make a huge use of the middleware. But in our case, and especially after system/client copies, we can go, even if SAP does not guaranty anything, because we don't care about "old" replicated data (I don't care about old BDOCs, that should even be deleted after processing).
We have to take some risks sometimes...

EBP Logical system after client copy

Hi Friends,
We did a client copy for our EBP system from the production system.
Now when I access the system to create invoice, the below error
prompted.
Error message
Error calling META BAPI META_CALCULATE_TAX
Error occurred calling META_BAPI_DISPATCH
In the debug mode for F/M META_BAPI_DISPATCH , I could see the logical system
still pointing to the live system.
So far Basis already changed all the logical system entries.
Hope someone could give some hint to solve the problem
Many thanks
Mike

Dinesh,
We are using SRM Standalone. No sync with backend product categories. In the debug mode I could see the system getting the logical system = "production sys" for business object BUS2205 (invoice).
Belief there is some setting for logical system still need tobe changed.
Hope you could give some hint.
Many thanks.
Mike.

BDLS or BDLSS after Client copy

Hi all,
I am currently working on two systems ..SRM and ECC 6.0.In SRM and ECC.We have 2 clients 100(Development) and 120(Customizing) in both the systems.We recently did a client copy of production to our development clients and I have one confusion regarding the LOGICLA SYSTEM UPDATE which is one of the madatory steps post client copy.
For the LOGICAL SYSTEM UPDATE,do we need to run the transaction BDLS or BDLSS??What is the difference between these 2 transactins?Also what are the advantages /disadvantages?
My BASIS guy told me that during our client copy,BDLS was automatically run.Surprisingly,although BDLS was run,the logical system entries are not yet updated!
Please advise.

Hello,
You need to run BDLSS, which has enhanced functionalities of BDLS. Check the following link out:
[Conversion of Logical Systems|http://help.sap.com/saphelp_NW04s/helpdata/en/33/c823dbaea911d6b29500508b6b8a93/frameset.htm]
For your question related the difference between BDLS and BDLSS, from the above link:
As of NetWeaver 6.20, SAP provides the option to convert logical systems using a new transaction that is more transparent and easier to use. Transaction BDLS has been used for this purpose until now. This transaction remains unchanged, and is enhanced by the new transaction BDLSS. In contrast to BDLS, in BDLSS logical systems can also be converted remotely in all partner systems.

Steps should be taken to make a client copy say from dev to test using BDLS

Some one help to write up on real situation at any client site...by BASIS group
for SRM box..
Say client num in Dev is 100
and we want to copy all that to a test box where the client number is 101...
initially client 100 SRM box is pointing to R/3 say dev box 201
the new R/3 box is 202. And we have to point the 101 to 202. So I am just wondering the steps
taken by BASIS group to build the test env. 101 ---> 202

Hello,
we had experienced some problems during client copy with SRM in our earlier project.
I am not a basis guy but i can give you some hint for yr situation:
- Copy R/3 client 101 to 202 with the profile SAP_ALL
- change the SID with BDLS
- Copy SRM client 100 to 101 with the profile SAP_CUST
- change the SID with BDLS
- Now download the masterdata from R/3 to SRM
SRM client should never be copied with SAP_ALL profile because ,if done so the logical system for product masters is copied that of old client.
This creates total chaos and nothing works.

Multiple Backend Connected to the same SRM client.

Hello All,
We have an interesting requirement.
We have an SRM 5.0 client with R/3 4.7 backend. Now we need to add another instance of ECC 5.0 to be connected to the same SRM client ( either on the same org stucture or a different org structure).
I am facing difficulty in doing the material replication.
I have the inbound queue in SRM blocked and I and getting the error message LOGSYS_FOR_GUID_CHANGED.
This lead me to the notes 588701 and 765018. But I am not sure this would actually solve the problem.
I have also seen the following thread which indicated that one CRM client should point to only one R/3 instance.
Downloading basic R/3 objects into CRM with brand new systems
Has any one so for integrated multiple backends to the same SRM client? What was your approch to the requirement? Inviting your views and opinions to this issue.
Thanks in advance.
Ajith

Hi
You can implement corrections in the note 765018 as you mentioned in your post.
We have done the same thing. In case of multiple backends and also if systems are refreshed with other instances (client copy), the logical system ID will be changed.
So we need to run the report mentioned in the said note and run the replication.

Unable to find product categories after client copy

Hi all,
We have copied clients from an existing ones for both SRM and ECC. After client copy we have followed standard procedure after client copy i.e.
Run transcation BDLS
created new RFC connections
changed attributes using the Attributes replace report
created new distributon model
maintained CRM parameters
maintained new site attributes in SMOEAC transaction
maintained entries in table TWPURLSVR
however , when i try to create a shopping cart, I cannot see any product category. The extended attributes for product category point to new ECC client becuse we have run the attributes replace report.
however in the product category table , COMM_CATEGORY , the product categories listed are all for the old ECC client
When i tried to load the Object DNL_CUST_PROD1 using transaction R3AS in SRM and tried to pull from new ECC client , it is in runing status for a long time and new categories with new ECC backend reference are not being replicated in the SRM.
Can you tell me why this could be happening ? How can i get the product categories from new ECC backend into my client?
Regards,
Mangesh

problem solved
i was using wrong parameters in BDLS

Replicating Product groups after client copy WRONG

Hi Folks,
I've taken a client copy from client 100 to 050 in both SRM SD1CLNT100 and ECC ED1CLNT100.
I've done BDLS to replace log. sys. in both systems for both SRM and ECC log sys. eg. ED1CLNT100 to 050 and SD1CLNT100 to 050.
After replication of config and product groups I'm stuck with the product groups replicateded in CLNT100.
I get the root node after replication of product groups in the new 050 client but all the product groups are not copied!
Any ideas to what I'm doing wrong?
Thanks in advance,
Thomas

HI Thomas
Can you pls go through following replies ---
1 how to delete Product Category ?
2 Re: Updating Product Categories
3 Deletion of Product master on Production Client
Run transaction BDLS to convert logical system from old ID to new logical system ID. The logical system ID now would be PR3CLNT700

Client Copy - Which source client 000 or 001?

I have a new SAP Netweaver 2004s SR1 ABAP+JAVA system with the following usage types:
SRM App
SRMLac
AS Java
AS ABAP
DI
MI
All the post-installation steps have been completed (including the CTC template configurations for DI and MI). The Java, DI, and MI have been configured against client 001. Now I want to create a new production client. The J2EE_ADMIN and users associated with DI and MI exist in client 001.
I want to create a new production client 010. Should I copy the users (SAP_USER) from client 001 and the customizing data (SAP_CUST) from client 000? Or, can I copy everything from client 001? There is a lot of conflicting information in the SAP Notes in regard to which source client to use.

You should not use a transport of copies for table USR02. Use client copy profile SAP_USER or SAP_UONL (without authorization profiles and roles).
And you should never copy customizing from client 001 to build up a new client. 001 happens to be a ordinary customer client which does not get supplied with changes SAP delivers after the release date. New SAP Netweaver 2004s installations use client 001 to file the user masters needed for the JAVA part. But this does not change the fact that client 001 is a customer client and should not be used as a template.
For local client copies you could use copy profile SAP_UCUS with source client 000 and source client user master 001 in one step. This has the same result as a client copy with SAP_CUST from 000 and SAP_UONL from 001 (i.e. thet authorization profiles and roles come from 000, when you need them from 001 you can either copy the missing individually or use SAP_ PROF in a separate step).
