Transport from Non-Unicode to Unicode system

I'd like to transfer program from SAP 4.6c to SAP ECC 6.0.
But source system is Non-Unicode, and target system is Unicode.
I exported transport request from SAP 4.6c into files:
K920948.D51
R920948.D51
then importing into SAP ECC 6.0 by STMS and getting error:
"Program ZRM06EF00: Syntax error in line 000000
The program 'ZRM06EF00' is not Unicode-compatible,according to its program attributes."
What should i do?

Hi:
It is required to make the change accordingly of UCCHECK.
So upload in the higher version, and check its syntax error first and then activate.

Transport from BW3.5 to BW3.0 - Possible?

Hello,
is it possible to transport from BW3.5 System to BW3.0? Are there any things to keep in mind?
Any ideas or experience???

there is another method to transport without using a transport connection - you would have to export the requests as data files and you will get two files for the request. These requests can be imported manually into the BW3.0 system and the objects will be available..
BASIS should be able to help you with this - this is recommended if this is a one off process and not a regular one - if it is going to be regular - recommend creating a transport connection for the same..

Hope it helps...

How to Migrate documents from Non Kpro to Kpro systems

Hi,
There are old documents created using Non kpro system and now the requirement is to Migrate it to Kpro system. How to do it.
Thanks,
Suresh HP

Hi Suresh,
If you have data collected at one place then you can upload this data into KPRO by using BDC with help of abap person.
The migration is done thru abap program only. Otherwise write a separate program for migrating from another server to Kpro.
I hope this will resolve the query.

Problem with STO from non-WM to WM-HU

Hi,
We have found out recently that we cannot move materials from non-WM to WM-HU storage locations with STO (313-315). When we are trying to post 313 from non-WM storage location, system gives error "ILN basis no. for plant XXXX, stor.locat. XXXX or whse number not found" where XXXX is the plant id and storage location id for non-WM stor.loc., so it should not have any ILN configured.
We have been using this functionality for a long time, last time in Septmeber. But since the problem applies to all materials and all STOs between non-WM and WM-HU, the problem is not connected to material master or specific storage location but should be some general setting in the system.
Does anybody has any idea where to look for?
Best regards,
Ewa

Hello,
You probably already solved your problem (hope for you!) anyway it should have to do with SSCC number

Moving from non-unicode to unicode system

Hi all.
We are moving from non-unicode system to a unicode system. I guess there is some utility to check possible errors prior to doing so. Any idea what's that utility?
How can I ensure a smooth transition?
Thanks in adv.

Problem publishing database contents from non-unicode to unicode system

Hello everyone!
We just set up a new SAP WAS based on Netweaver 2004 as a unicode system. Out problem now is that we have a content management system on our non-unicode system and that we are publishing the contents via rfc to the WAS unicode system to display the contents online. the contents are stored in our own database tables.
The problem thereby is that many texts pasted from microsoft word contain special characters like bullets, long minus or low-9 quotation marks which are not correctly displayed in the unicode system / on the website. we already found out that it has something to do with the codepage. the sap notes say we should use 1160 instead of 1100 and that the transaction SPUMG would be helpful. but we are not able to select any tables there.
so now we do not know what to do exactly. do we have to change something in our non-unicode system or do we have to conversion in our unicode system. and what happends if content containing special microsoft word characters is published after the spumg conversion? do we have to to this frequently?
We would be glad if anyone could help.
Thanks a lot!

Hi Martin,
thanks for your quick answer.
You got me right. We have a local non-Unicode SAP HCM Netweaver 2004 system running a self-developed web based content management system / wiki. The texts entered in the bsp application are stored in a string field in our database table. Actually we publish the contents to a WAS 6.20 non-Unicode system with the same database tables to provide the content via BSP for the public. Everything is working fine including the special characters.
Now we want to replace the WAS 6.20 non-Unicode system by a new WAS 7.0/2004 Unicode system. But when publishing the contents via the same RFC function module to the new system the special characters seem to be damaged. We are not able to replace them with abap commands and when they are displayed on the website we only see "boxes".
If I get you right we have to run SPUMG on our nw 2004 non-unicode productive hcm system, right? but isn't there a danger to damage existing contents?
Best regards,
Stefan

Data extraction from Non-Unicode ECC6 to Unicode SAP BI system

Hi,
We have an existing non-unicode ECC6 system. Currently we are installing SAP BI unicode system. Can anyone tell me are there any issues in data extraction for SAP BI from a non-unicode ECC6 system to an Unicode SAP BI system ?
Please also note that our data consists of Asian (korean, Japanese & Chinese) fonts.
Regards,
Anirban

Hi Des Gallagher,
Thank you for your reply.
I have gone through the notes suggested by you, but they suggest issues related to BW 3.x versions. We are currently on SAP_BW 700 - SP16. Also, among other notes i found note 510882 which might be helpful for custom developments.
But i am still wondering whether we are going to face major issues related to data extraction from non-unicode ECC6 system to unicode SAP_BW 700 system.
Incase you have any further details, please let me know.
Thanks in advance.

Anirban Kundu

Transport request from non-unicode to unicode

Hi
In our BW landscape we have Development and Production server.
Unfortunately the development server was installed on BW 3.5 with NonUnicode
and production on BW 3.5 with UNICODE option..
We inderstand the architecture change, but we are using only ENGLIGH language in our envn.. Do we still need to do a unicode conversion on our development server ??
I understand that as long as I am using single language & single codepage, I will be needing a unicode conversion
Kindy let me know your feedback..
Thanks & Regards
Madhu

Hi,
We are having a running landscape of non-unicode system.
Now, Another Landscape is being used by parent company of Unicode Systems. Now, All data, programs, objects are being configured on the parent company server. So, there is no chance to migrate non-unicode to unicode.
But, We have to apply all packages developed on Non-unicode system to Unicode System. I have released that request and copied data file and cofile into target developement System (Unicode) then imported on this Server.
Now, we are facing this problem (Above mentioned.). I think, there must be a solution for it conceptually.

Regarding Conversion Of ABAP program from non unicode to uni code

Hi Can you please let me know the procedure for converssion of non unicode to unicode?
Thanks in advance,

Re: Upgrade 4.6 to ECC - What are the responsibilites
regarding Unicode influence in Standard programs
Very good document:
http://www.doag.org/pub/docs/sig/sap/2004-03/Buhlinger_Maxi_Version.pdf
https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/sdn/go/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/d37d1ad9-0b01-0010-ed9f-bc3222312dd8

You need to use the transaction UCCHECK.
The report documentation is here
ABAP Unicode Scan Tool UCCHECK
You can use transaction UCCHECK to examine a Unicode program set for syntax errors without having to set the program attribute "Unicode checks active" for every individual program. From the list of Unicode syntax errors, you can go directly to the affected programs and remove the errors. It is also possible to automatically create transport requests and set the Unicode program attribute for a program set.
Some application-specific checks, which draw your attention to program points that are not Unicode-compatible, are also integrated.
Selection of Objects:
The program objects can be selected according to object name, object type, author (TADIR), package, and original system. For the Unicode syntax check, only object types for which an independent syntax check can be carried out are appropriate. The following object types are possibilities:
PROG Report
CLAS Class
FUGR Function groups
FUGX Function group (with customer include, customer area)
FUGS Function group (with customer include, SAP area)
LDBA Logical Database
CNTX Context
TYPE Type pool
INTF Interface
Only Examine Programs with Non-Activated Unicode Flag
By default, the system only displays program objects that have not yet set the Unicode attribute. If you want to use UCCHECK to process program objects that have already set the attribute, you can deactivate this option.
Only Objects with TADIR Entry
By default, the system only displays program objects with a TADIR entry. If you want to examine programs that don't have a TADIR entry, for example locally generated programs without a package, you can deactivate this option.
Exclude Packages $*
By default, the system does not display program objects that are in a local, non-transportable package. If you want to examine programs that are in such a package, you can deactivate this option.
Display Modified SAP Programs Also
By default, SAP programs are not checked in customer systems. If you also want to check SAP programs that were modified in a customer system (see transaction SE95), you can activate this option.
Maximum Number of Programs:
To avoid timeouts or unexpectedly long waiting times, the maximum number of program objects is preset to 50. If you want to examine more objects, you must increase the maximum number or run a SAMT scan (general program set processing). The latter also has the advantage that the data is stored persistently. Proceed as follows:
- Call transaction SAMT
- Create task with program RSUNISCAN_FINAL, subroutine SAMT_SEARCH
For further information refer to documentation for transaction SAMT.
Displaying Points that Cannot Be Analyzed Statically
If you choose this option, you get an overview of the program points, where a static check for Unicode syntax errors is not possible. This can be the case if, for example, parameters or field symbols are not typed or you are accessing a field or structure with variable length/offset. At these points the system only tests at runtime whether the code is sufficient for the stricter Unicode tests. If possible, you should assign types to the variables used, otherwise you must check runtime behavior after the Unicode attribute has been set.
To be able to differentiate between your own and foreign code (for example when using standard includes or generated includes), there is a selection option for the includes to be displayed. By default, the system excludes the standard includes of the view maintenance LSVIM* from the display, because they cause a large number of messages that are not relevant for the Unicode conversion. It is recommended that you also exclude the generated function group-specific includes of the view maintenance (usually L<function group name>F00 and L<function group name>I00) from the display.
Similarly to the process in the extended syntax check, you can hide the warning using the pseudo comment ("#EC *).
Applikation-Specific Checks
These checks indicate program points that represent a public interface but are not Unicode-compatible. Under Unicode, the corresponding interfaces change according to the referenced documentation and must be adapted appropriately.
View Maintenance
Parts of the view maintenance generated in older releases are not Unicode-compatible. The relevant parts can be regenerated with a service report.
UPLOAD/DOWNLOAD
The function modules UPLOAD, DOWNLOAD or WS_UPLOAD and WS_DOWNLOAD are obsolete and cannot run under Unicode. Refer to the documentation for these modules to find out which routines serve as replacements.

Unicode Errors - Interface with non-Unicode 3rd party system

Does anyone have an experience working with an interface between a Unicode SAP system and a non-Unicode 3rd party system? Would appreciate your input on existing data declaration and logic (prior to SAP Unicode conversion), if changes need to be made to the character types and upload/download functions.
We are doing our testing in a newly converted Unicode system which has interface sending files through SAP Business Connector, and uses TDAccess/COMM-PRESS to encrypt the payment file.
We are getting an COMM-PRESS error that it's not able to get the private key
ERR=>RC=107#Error building signature segment (S1A/S2A) ERR=>#Error getting private key: #PUBLIC KEY FINGERPRINT = , rc = 524
The issue seems to be that the passphrase is not received correctly in COMM-PRESS (codepage 1100) from Unicode SAP (codepage 4102). The passphrase is uploaded from a text file (codepage 1100?) to T_PPLOC and then to W_PPLOC.
TYPES: BEGIN OF T_PPLOC,
         FLINE(64) TYPE C,
       END OF T_PPLOC.
DATA: W_PPLOC(64) TYPE C
CALL FUNCTION 'GUI_UPLOAD'
      EXPORTING
        FILENAME                = W_FILENAME
        FILETYPE                = 'BIN'
      TABLES
        DATA_TAB                = T_PPLOC
    LOOP AT T_PPLOC.
      IF W_PPLOC IS INITIAL.
        MOVE T_PPLOC-FLINE TO W_PPLOC.
      ELSE.
        CONCATENATE W_PPLOC T_PPLOC-FLINE INTO W_PPLOC.
      ENDIF.
    ENDLOOP.
Comparing the results between a Unicode and non-Unicode system, the uploaded passphrase is different because of the codepage. But even if I convert the passphrase first from 1100 to 4102 codepage, it still fails.

Hi,
Try this by sending value to the CODEPAGE parameter of the function module GUI_UPLOAD.

Importing from an Oracle database converted from non-unicode to unicode - SSIS 2012

Hi,
I've some SSIS 2012 pkgs that read from a non-unicode Oracle database to a non-unicode SQL Server database.
Few days later, the Oracle database will be converted to unicode one and so I need to update the SQL database and the SSIS pkgs. Obiously no data conversion transformations are present in the pkgs. I'd like to avoid to add more of these data conversions.
As a first step, I'm trying to convert a SQL table to unicode format, but it isn't possible to convert non-unicode and unicode string data types.
I did not expect to have an error about the conversion from to non-unicode Oracle database (not yet converted) to unicode SQL Server database: a such conversion doesn't lost any information content. For me, it is right to have an error by from unicode to
non-unicode conversion.
Any suggests to solve this issue with a minimum development effort? Many thanks

Nope once you change datatypes to unicode you've to refresh metadata settings within SSIS packages for it to work fine. SSIS doesnt have the ability to do metadata changes at runtime. So someone has to update package metadata information to make them unicode
to make sure it works correctly after the changes.
What you can do is create test dbs in oracle and sql in uncode and create some modified packages based on it. Once you make changes to production dbs you need to move these modified copies also to production after making necessary config value changes like
servername,dbname,folder paths etc and then they will continue to work normally without causing any further downtimes to the customer.
Please Mark This As Answer if it helps to solve the issue Visakh ---------------------------- http://visakhm.blogspot.com/ https://www.facebook.com/VmBlogs

How to export & import customer table space from non-unicode to unicode sys

hello all,
I have performed a migration of Single code to Unicode system. -
(ECC 6.0 SR2)
After completion of export & import i have noticed there is one customer table space which is missing.
eg - PSAPABCD
I have checked in source system & noticed that Table space is created by customer & not maintained properly as required,
therefore it is not either exported or imported.
Please advice me how should i manage to export tablespace from Non - unicode system & import in Unicode.
Is there any work out.
Thanks & rgds,
