Support Pack level for upgrade

Hi All,
We are upgrading from R/3 4.7 to ECC 6.0, can anybody provide me Support Pack level for SAP_ABA, SAP_BASIS etc. before starting upgrade.
I have gone through lot of OSS notes but not getting exact SP level.
Regards,
Sachin

I depends on
- what upgrade package you use (SR1, SR2, SR3)
- the SP level of the source system
The upgrade guide tells you the minimum SP level needed to do the upgrade.
If you use the new CD/DVD set, the system will be upgraded to SP 12 (BASIS, ABA, SAP_APPL).
If you backup your wage tables before the upgrade (as described in the installation guide) you can also go to the highes SP level for SAP_HR.

Hi Senthil,
of course it is always recommended to use the newest Support Package Stack,
but if your system (your business processes) are working fine, I would recommend you to
import support package only then when you have an error or you want to have a special fiunctionality.
Some customers play support packages into the system only twice a year, because the business processes
should be tested after the sp import.

Hi Rajesh,
Please see the note '833438', it explains which pack is required in this scenario.
"You cannont connect ERP (R/3) releases lower than 4.6C to CRM 5.0.
All subsequent CRM releases (5.0 or higher) cannot be connected to ERP lower
than (R/3) 4.6C.
These types of system landscapes are not supported by SAP.
If you are using CRM 5.0, you must have implemented Plug-in PI 2004.1
Support Package 10 and, provided you have Basis Release 620 or higher, you
must import PI_BASIS 2005.1 in R/3. --> After you have imported these
plug-ins"

Support Pack Level Upgrade in BI 7.0

Hi all,
Can anyone let me know what are the possible issues that would occur after upgrading support pack level in BI 7.0.
As far as I know a BI consultant would participate in the upgrade activities like BI objects check, SPAU, query check, etc. Can anyone let me know if there are are any other activities to be performed.
I would appreciate your help.
Thanks,
Sunny.

Hi
There is any customer specific development done by SAP in the previous system. If so, the time to act is just after the pre upgrade study only. The customer would only want to retain the customer specific module developed by SAP. We need to get SAPu2019s intervention in the project before we start the upgrade. SAP would develop certain patches to be run on the previous system to capture all the customer specific development and then they would run some patches on ECC system u2013 this would release the customer specific development in the new system (ECC./BI). This is a very crucial and important check of the step. If not taken care of at the proper time, it might hamper the Customer Specific development on the new system.
It is to be assured that the new system is at the latest stack level for ABAP, XI, BI etc before we start the SPDD and SPAU phase
Only one request is to be made for SPDD. For SPAU too, only one request should be made.
Previous system sandbox should be available for reference during the entire upgrade project and should not be scrapped before the Go Live.

Upgrade to CRM 2007: minumun service pack level for other components

Thanks a lot.

Hello
In the CRM 2007 Master Guide which is available in the [SAP Service Marketplace|http://service.sap.com/~form/sapnet?_SHORTKEY=01100035870000704565&] I found that SAP ERP 6.0 EHP 3 is recomended and SAP R/3 4.6C SP 53 is the minimum version. No special version is mentioned for SCM 5.0.

Support pack level issue in Standard Finance Program.

Hi Everyone,
                i have an issue which is related to Finance. Actually, Finance People are Using a Standard Report (FS10N) - GL Account Line item display. There,Vendor and Customer Details are not displayed (Customer/Vedor Filed is empty) for the normal GL Account. But for the Reconsalation GL accounts they are able to see.
               For this issue SAP released an SNOTE 1107639 and correction delivered in SAP_APPL support pack 12.And we already applied it in the system and our current SAP_APPL level is 14. Though it is already available why the problem is still persist. Another thing is, for the same issue there is another SNOTE 1034354 which guides to enhancement thro' some BADI work in standard program.
              My question is that if the correction is available in a patch and that is imported as well in to system without any error then it should resolving the problem.but in this case why it does not work out or what could be the reason behind this. As a Basis admin i would like to know.
Thanks&Regards,
Siva

Hi Siva,
Your query is obsolutely acceptable...
After supportpack update some times database will not be synchronised with the new updates.
and more over it seems there is a complete issue with SAP side.... there is only one option in u r hand now just restart the system.but please make sure to take the down time...and check whether the correction is working or not..if not then no luck u need to contact SAP global team and ask them why the corrections are not working properly..

Srini

Transport failure in QAS system after support pack stack 9 upgrade

We have a DEV->QAS>PRD ECC system landscape. Recently we upgraded our DEV, QAS and PRD system to support pack stack 9 (with Kernel level 137). After the upgrade, we got transport failure in QAS where it shows pink colored down arrow which shows unable to open import queue when I click on it under stms import overview. If I put back the old kernel (Level 69), transport works just fine. DEV is the TP domain controller. When I run the RTPTEST in QAS, it show sthe follwing info:
RFC Destination
Destination CALLTP_WindowsNT
tp Path E:\usr\sap\QAS\DVEBMGS02\exe\tp.EXE
tp Executable Size: 10.352.432 bytes
RFC Ping Error when opening an RFC connection
tp Call
RFC Link Error when opening an RFC connection
tp Version
DB Connect
Offline Call Error when opening an RFC connection
I will greately appreciate any input to resolve this issue.
Thanks

You need to upgrade two component of your kernel tp and R3trans
Also perform an additonal test with new kernel
cd /usr/sap/trans/bin
tp connect <SID> pf=TP_DOMAIN_<SID_DC>.PFL
If you have issue to connect it means there is some issue with tp tool and/or connectivity
Cheers !

Service Pack Level for IDM 7.2

Dear All,
I have installed a IdM 7.2 in a windows server. I am creating a document for our organization. I came across of a question on how will I able to know what SP Level does my IdM is. I tried searching and checking in the Identity Center > About Identity Center I was able to see System Info. But once I click the System Info button I am receiving an error "System Information is Unavailable at this time".
I also checked already in the usr files of the installation but wasnt able to see any logs in the files.
Does anyone know any other steps on how to check SP Level?
Thank you in advance.
Regards,
Santi

Hi Santi,
Assumption: SAP IDM 7.2 version
You can find the runtime version by checking the dispatcher node.
Designtime version can be found in Identity center node.
Kind regards,
Jai

Different Support Pack Levels

Hi experts, we are running a federated portal network, between our BI Portal with a ABAP daat source and our EP Portal which is your standard ldap data source. We are looking at implementing ESS MSS or XSS into our portal landscape.
I understand from SAP that i will need to install SP21 onto our portal systems to get the XSS business packages. But our BI team are dragging there heels about wanting to upgarde the BI Portal. I understand that the xss implementation creates a second node in a federated portal network that you will derive all your content from.
What are the implications/problems we may have if we upgarde our EP Portal to SP21 but leave our BI Portal on SP19 or 20??
Will it still work, connectivity wise and RDL wise?? Or will it just corrupt the whole thing???

The best possible scenario is to have the consumer and all the producer portals on the same version and SP level. However, this might not be possible to maintain at all times in landscapes were you have multiple producer portals.
Should you have a version difference, the general recommendation is to have your consumer portal at a higher SP level than your producers. All the portals should be on 7.0 version.
Please see the following link and SAP note 1295662 for more information on version Interoperability in FPN:

Support pack 12 for solution manager 4.0

Hi,
We are on Patch level 10 and want to go to 12 on solution manager 4.0. do we need to download the patches from service market place or do we need to use the maintenance optimizer in DSWP. if so I don't see any solution manager except the satelliate systems.
Some one please let me know?
Thanks,
Chander

You need both
You Solution Manager needs to be added as system in SMSY so you will see it in Maintenance Optimizer.
The other way of downloading patches is, step to http://service.sap.com/patches, use the "Support Stack" entry, select all and put all to the download basket. Then use any system that you have in MO and "confirm" the basket and then cancel the whole procedure. Your items will be confirmed and you can download them with the Download Manager.

Support Packs in Solution manager

Hi,
I have a query, when I am going to select patches through maintenance optimizer for solution manager I can see the source and target stack level at SMP and when I am putting the source stack(17) and the target stack as latest, solution manager 7.0 EHP 1-23 and going further for download it shows the support packs corresponding to release 701 but not to 700, as my current support pack level for solman is 16(release 700) and I can see there are support pack level up to 21 for release 700, I am confused why it is not taking account the remaining patches for 700 or can I switch directly to 701 and apply the support packs corresponding to release 701.
Regards,
Mridul

Dear Mirdul,
Check SAP note 1169247. In which it is mentioned that:
ABAP stack requirements
      You can start the SAINT update from any Solution Manager 7.0 ABAP Stack.
Java stack requirements
      A direct JSPM update to Solution Manager 7.0 Java Stack 18 and higher is not possible from some of the Java stacks. Therefore, proceed as follows: First, use the JSPM update to update the Java stack only to Solution Manager 7.0 Java stack 17 and then update to the relevant Solution Manager 7.0 Enhancement Package 1 Java stack.
      Take the numbering into account: Solution Manager 7.0 Java stack 17 contains NetWeaver 7.0 Java stack 16.
Also, check point number 5 in that.
I think now it will be clear.
Thanks
Sunny
