Store documents for SAP installations in Germany
Hi All,
One of our clients has a single instance of SAP in Germany. It seems that according to the German VAT law we are NOT allowed to electronically store any documents such as invoices or credit notes on servers outside the European Union.
I wanted to check if this is true and if anyone has encountered a similar situation for SAP implementations on Germany and how did you deal with this scenario.
Any feedback/comments will be very helpful.

> 1. How did you handle documnets that are physically stored in some other country but legally should be stored in Germany ?
You either mirror them, or give them their own instance to work on and mirror it back.
Another option is to use virtual companies, but in my experience that creates a mess and is not scalable (imagine all countries want this?).
> 2. Can you please explain about the second point "export controls on encryption software", how is it usefull in this scenario.
It was a thought. I did not say that it would be effectively usefull. Basically, the authorities want to be able to do a "morning raid" if required and confiscate / copy the disks for investigation. That is why they want the hardware physically within their legislative area...
You can use encryption, but the keys (probably lots of them...) will be within legislative area as well, probably.
You will need to contact your DB vendor about that.
Possibly you can also contact the authorities and ask for an exception.
Cheers,
Julius

Need advice for SAP installation on External Hard disk
Hi Gurus,
I have HP laptop with configuration of 512 MB RAM and 50 GB hard disk...i recently bought 250 GB segate external hard disk for SAP installation...My doubt here is if i install SAP in external hard disk and will it work properly if i connect my laptop?
ur advice is much appreciated
Regards
DineshHi Dinesh,
I have installed SAP on external harddisk.
And it will work properly.
But i think you need to increase your RAM.
After installation, please keep in mind one thing.
You will have to attach your external harddisk before your machine starts, because your OS will be in internal harddisk, so SAP and oracel services won't be able to run without external hard-disk.
and in case you attach after system startup, please start all services.

Well I would be using this for self learning purpose.
Thanks & Regards
SatishDear Satis
because of historic reason in history of SAP there might be the risk to misinterpret your question. This would be my first answer:
1.) check this document first: SAP EHS Management for Beginners
2.) check may be:SAP Product and REACH Compliance - SAP Library
Some "topics" are dealed with this SAP solution
3e.) years ago a product if TechniData was available called "Compliance for products". Regarding many of the functions therein: these are now mainly available in the above mentioned solution or in the new solution as shown here:
Component Extension 5.0 for SAP EHS Management – SAP Help Portal Page
Take first a survey in the doucments and links given and then coe back with furthere questions etc.

OS is Suse linux 11.
We installed Business objects EDGE 3.1 in different server which is also Suse Linux 11 server
and then installed client tools like Xcelsius , Crystal Reports etc in user Laptop which is base on windows xp.
now we installed Integration kit for SAP in the server where we installed Business objects EDGE 3.1 ( in Suse linrux machine )
during installed of integration kit for SAP no input related to BW server because BOBJ connect to BW ( that is why we installed integration kit for SAP) and why we need java connector we don't have JAVA instance, and what to do next
Regards
ShahidThanks Ingo Hilgefortfor your reply.
My queries is
1. We have only abap instance , Java instance is mandatory for BOBJ ?
2. We installed BOBJ edge 3.1 in Linux server and in same server we installed Integration kit for SAP ( during the installation of

Functional Specification Documents for SAP Sales and Distribution
Dear Gurus,
I am having the problems of Invoice Output..... the default out put generated by the SAP is completely different from the hard copy of the Invoice of the Client. ppl say that I have 2 take the help of ABAPers to define the smart forms for the invoices of different company codes.... i had conversation with the ABAPers.... butthey are asking the format, wht ever the change we are looking for..... I am not be able to get the exact format.... how 2 provide this to ABAPers in FS format.
can any one pls send me ( or provide me the link to download the same from the SDN website) these Functional Specification Documents for Sales and distribution.
Wishes,
AbhishekHi there,
1st try to understand what is a functional specification doc before asking for it.
Functional specs is a doc in which you include what is the business requirement. If it requires a change to change to existing configs / code, then you will give the progs & the location where you will need to change. If the requirement is a totally new one, then yuo will explain the requirement in detail & possibly give the progs / code if there are any.
In your case, your client has a specific invoice format which is different from which SAP gives, in such cases, you will need to define a new Invoice output for eg ZINV. Define it as a print output. You will need to define a new print prog for the new output in which you will call smart forms to define the layout & fields.
Ask your business user to send the invoice copy which he has. Scan it & include it in the functional specs which you prepare. Mention all the fields which you want in the layout. Ask the ABAPer to code the invoice format in the same way. ABAPer is free to define any convinent name as per the guidelines (which he will be aware). You will need to assign that in the form routines of the output.
As a functional consultant you will need to give the field mappings (from where you get the data) for all the fields which you wish to print in the output. All that should be included in the func specs.
So there is no standard func specs that you can follow. Each func specs varies on the requirement. So dont ask these kind of questions in SDN forum. If you dont know how to define func specs, ask how to define. Dont ask people to send the sample func specs. Thats against the rules of conduct.
