Understand the technical base for Enterprise Services?

Hi all,
I am trying to understand what is the technical base for enterprise services and the restrictions when activating them. The best documents I have found are:
Note 1566412 u2013 Enhancement package 6 for SAP ERP 6.0.
Note 1359215 u2013 Technical prerequisites for using enterprise services
sdn blog u201CDetermin the SOA readiness of your System with the ES Workplace (Part 1 and 2)
EHP Master Guide - https://websmp107.sap-ag.de/~sapidb/011000358700001183052011E
The documents are quite informative, however there are still questions. Maybe someone can shed some light of these:
1.) Is my understanding correct that Enterprise services can have three different base u201Cmodulesu201D?:
a. An EHP (with relation to a business function).
b. The swc u201CESA ECC-SE 60xu201D (without relation to a business function). E.G. ES Bundle "Bank Communication Management".
c. The SWC u201CSAP APPLu201D (without relation to a business function). E.G. u201CBusinessPartnerERPUpdateRequestConfirmation_Inu201D
2.) Is it possible to activate enterprise services (bundles) that rely on business functions after a EHP installation or ONLY during the EHP installation?
3.) Is it possible to activate enterprise services with base u201CESA ECC-SE 60xu201D after a EHP installation or ONLY during the EHP installation?
4.) Is SWC u201CESA ECC-SE 60xu201D a u201Ctechnicalu201D business function, whose activation cannot be reverted either? If yes what effect has the activation von u201CESA ECC-SE 60xu201D on the current ERP customizing?
5.) How do the Enterprise Services relate with Service Interface definitions from SAP Process Integration (XI Content)?
Do I need the XI Content with the service interfaces in ES Repository (and SPROXY) only if the communication is B2B (with PI) or also if the communication is Point-2-Point (without PI)?
Thanks for your feedback!
Chris

Hi Chris,
I'll try and provide answers where I can...
1.) Is my understanding correct that Enterprise services can have three different base u201Cmodulesu201D?:
I personally don't agree with this understanding. Enterprise Services would always relate to some or other business function, unless we have a different understanding of what "Business Function" means . What changes is how the Enterprise Services (or versions of them) are delivered.
SAP APPL for example would be relevant to most of the enterprise services shipped with a standard ECC EHP*. So it will relate to the business functionality for the applications that are shipped with an ECC installation.
2.) Is it possible to activate enterprise services (bundles) that rely on business functions after a EHP installation or ONLY during the EHP installation?
I don't understand this question but I'll try and offer a generic answer. You can activate/use Enterprise Services whenever you want to as long as they are already available in your current installation. If they are only available in an EHP that you don't have yet then you will need to upgrade (but I also seem to recall some workarounds - SAP notes - as an alternative to upgrading).
3.) Is it possible to activate enterprise services with base u201CESA ECC-SE 60xu201D after a EHP installation or ONLY during the EHP installation?
You decide when you would like to activate it, it's generally after. SAP will ship them anyway.
4.) Is SWC u201CESA ECC-SE 60xu201D a u201Ctechnicalu201D business function, whose activation cannot be reverted either? If yes what effect has the activation von u201CESA ECC-SE 60xu201D on the current ERP customizing?
There is a tool call Impact Analyzer, read up a little on it. It allows you to do an impact analysis before activating. It might also help posting a separate thread on of the ECC functional forums here on SCN for more impact analysis. I'm not sure if the activation can be reverted.
5.) How do the Enterprise Services relate with Service Interface definitions from SAP Process Integration (XI Content)?
The XI Content is the design equivalent of the Enterprise Services as you see them in SPROXY. It's only relevant in certain cases, examples:
- If you want to enhance standard SAP Enterprise Services
- If you want to do additional transformation/s & routing.
If you are planning P2P type communication, then the XI content is not relevant. One thing to be aware of though is if you have your backend ECC system connected to your PI ESR, the view that you get in SPROXY will reflect the SWC view of the ESR. So you might want to download the XI Content & import it into your PI ESR anyway.

Troubles with the Click Wheel (or whatever the "technical term" is) HELP!

My iPod works pretty well, except for the click wheel (or whatever you wanna call it). It scrolls fine, but when it comes to trying to press the menu button, or even sometimes when I try to press the play, forward or backward button, it seems to think I'm pressing the center select button instead, selecting something on the screen instead..
If anyone can help, I'd really appreciate it! (I posted one earlier but I'm new at this and was told I should make the subject more specific..
Thanks!
*Ace
(P.S. It's not the iPod with the four buttons across the top- it's one with just the wheel and the center select button)

I still need help please!
When restoring the iPod, that erases everything on the iPod, correct? Would I then have to do all that stuff you have to do when you first get the iPod, like registration type stuff? Does this mean that everything in iTunes will be erased as well? (I have purchased a lot of music that is not on a CD..)
sorry, many questions in one... thanks for the help though!

I started to download Maverick but then read that Word and Excel do not work with Maverick. I hit pause on the download. How do I stop the download. In non technical terms please!

How do I stop the download of Maverick on my MacBookPro? I started downloading then discovered that 2008 Word and Excel do not work with Maverick. I have too many files in the 2008 version to upgrade them at this time. I just need instructions in non technical terms to stop the Maverick download.

I did the same as Tapmr and have paused the "upgrade". So am I to understand that the upgrade only downloads and will not automatically install it? I am an extreme novice here, and cannot afford any issues after I upgrade/download. I don't know how to make a clone copy as you suggested either.
I need assurance that if the upgrade is allowed to continue that I will be able to delete the upgrade downloaded and continue on as before with my regular system.

My macbook air will not connect to the internet due to a self assigned IP address. I have tried trawling the support forums, but either I can't understand the suggestions, or they don't work. Please explain to me in simplest terms how to fix this. Thanks!

Understand the term instance

HI all,
I want to understand the term what instance means.this is the definition what i have got
"An Instance is an administrative unit that combines SAP system components providing one or more services.
The services provided by an instance are started and stopped together.
You use a common instance profile to set parameters for all components of an instance.
So by this definition does that mean that if we have dev , qual and prod all are ecc based systems then we have 3 instances ?I want to understand what this instance means specifically with respect to SAP.

Hi,
As per me instance will be a Server or application server, you have to understand as per the situation.
for eg: if any doby called dialog instance then it will be appserver of your central instance.
here u can see 2 instances one instance belongs to appserver and another instance itself central instance.
please have a look on the below link.. i hope u will get good idea abt your query.
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw70ehp1/helpdata/en/c4/3a5eb7505211d189550000e829fbbd/content.htm
As per u r another query yes u have 3 instances in u r landscape.
hope the above informaiton will helps.

What does the Service Connector do, in technical terms?

Hello,
My client is implementing SAP for the first time, and we're setting up the SAP remote support infrastructure (SNC over Internet).
The security team is concerned with the step where the Service Connector is run on a PC to open the network connection (if not already open).
I understand the Service Connector is downloading the stfk.oez file from SAP Support web site, and then executes an RFC call through the SAP Routers.
But question is - what does this RFC call actually do, technically speaking? Is it actually making some configuration changes in the SAP Routers? If so, is there any security mechanism in Service Connector preventing an unauthorized person to make a configuration change remotely on the SAP Router(s) ?
Or is the Service COnnector merely "pinging" SAP support backbone in order to "kickstart" the connection? I can't imagine why this would be required, normally you don't need to estblish a "network connection" in this way.
Or is the RFC call creating some kind of "RFC tunnel" (??) between SAP Router and SAP support backbone, that will allow SAP to access and reuse the very same RFC connection thread with their different protocols (SAP Gui, telnet, whatever...)
I've read all dokumentation at service.sap.com/access-support and e.g. related SAP notes e.g. 35010.
Nowhere is it explained what the Service Connector actually does and what is meant by "open network connection".
Another way to ask this question is:
- In SAP Support web site only an authorized person can configure the "service connection" and define a time window when SAP can access the systems
- Why is there a second step needed to open the "network connection", initiated from customer's PC. Why is this step required at all?
Anybody out there who can elobarate on an answer for this?
Thanks,
Lars

Hi Lars,
Would the information in the link below help you?
https://websmp208.sap-ag.de/~sapidb/011000358700002294272006E
From what I understand, the only thing that Service Connector does is to "give the approval and the connection parameters" to your local SAP Router to initiate a network tunnel between your local SAP Router and SAP's SAP Router.
I hope this helps.

The payment terms are not getting reflected in PO

Hi,
We are in SRM5.0 Extended Classic scenario.
We have created new payment term in ECC and transferred to SRM using BBP_UPLOAD_PAYMENT_TERMS and after tranferring it to SRM I am able to see the new payment term in table BBP_PAYTERM and BBP_PAYTERM_TEXT in SRM system.
But non of the payment terms are not reflecting into PO. We are not getting any errors while processing the PO.
Could you please suggest what may be the issue here.
Best Regards,
Siddappa

Hello Siddappa,
I am a little confused here with the scenario.
I understand that the payment terms are recenly created and replicated. So naturally they would have been updated in the relevant vendor master as well. Now has the vendor master been replicated to SRM from ECC once the payment terms were updated.
So from what you have mentioned "When we check the BBP_PD, the payment term is reflecting for the POs created after shopping cart approval."
So does this mean once the SC is approved then the PO is created and then the Terms of Payment are seen in the PO.
However "If the PO created through describe requirement, the Vendor will not assigned the PO created will go to Held status and buyer will process the order."
So does this mean since the Vendor is not mentioned the Terms of Payment is not being reflected and will happen only once the same is specified in the PO.
I have a question on whether after replicating the Payment Terms, has it been seen in any of the PO's created so far or it is always blank.
Regards
Pramod

Can you help me understand the use of the word POSITION in TR and CFM?

Hi,
I am trying to have a view of typical BI reports in TR and TM/CFM so through my research I came to the following link:.
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw2004s/helpdata/en/62/08193c38f98e1ce10000000a11405a/frameset.htm
My problem on this link and other postings on this site seem to be the same. Can you help me understand the use of the word POSITIONS in these context:
1. Our client has asked for financial transaction reports in BW, such as position of Borrowings, Investments and Hedge Operations (TM data).
2. I have a requirement on, some reports related to Money Market (Fixed Term Deposits, Deposits at Notice) something on FSCM-Treasury and Risk Manager. These reports will be similar to that of Loans, i.e. Position statement, flow statement, etc.
3. The set of position values for a single position or a limited amount of positions can be reported by transactions TPM12 and TPM13 in R3.
4. 0CFM_C10 (Financial Positions Cube)
Do you have some simple report outputs to help clarify how the word POSITION is used in such environments?
Thanks

If I future buy 10 shares in company at £1 per share - at the end of the day my potential value is £10
The next day the shares drop tp £0.9 per share - I have a negative position - my shares are only worth £9
I haven;t bought them yet - but I have a negative position - ie if things stayed as they are - I am going to realise (ie end up with) a loss
Now you can use this for loans and foreign exchange banks as well...

You: It now says there are 14 minutes remaining
Manoj: Thank you for informing.
Manoj: If you want to try installing the application later, you can try installing the application from Desktop by running the setup file from the desktop app.
You: There is still 8 minutes remaining. When this gets loaded to the desk top then what do I do.
Manoj: Once the copy of files is completed. Remove the disc and then open the desktop Photoshop Elements 13 folder, run the setup file in that folder to start the installation.
You: Ok. It still says it will take another 5 minutes to load
Manoj: Thank you for informing.
You: Now at 2.30 minutes remaining
Manoj: Thank you for informing.
You: Ok. The loading to desk top must be done & I have removed the disc
Manoj: Thank you,.
Manoj: Now open the folder which we copied now.
Manoj: Run the Setup.exe file from the folder.
You: i tried running the set up file but it says other items are open. I tried to close the one for sign i again and it will not close.
Manoj: May I know the error it is showing as while trying to close the other installation window?
You: The sign in window keeps asking for a ID & Password. When i put them in is says I must reset the pass word
Manoj: Okay.
Manoj: Close that previous installation window which is asking to reset the password and run the setup file now from the new folder which we copied now.
You: I said it would send notice to my email but I checked both the email and the junk mail and nothing arrived
Manoj: Robert, since the previous installation is started from the disc, we need to close that window and start installing from the desktop Photoshop Elements folder.
You: Ok I got everything closed and will retry
Manoj: Thank you.
You: The installer initiation ran and now I am back to the same problem.. When I try to sign in it says I need a new pass word but nothing happens

How to understand the strange parameter values shown by 'pstack core'

I encounterred a problem that led to a core dump. I use 'pstack core' to shown the calling stack.
However I could hardly understand some of the parameter values below:
core 'core.150108' of 5016: cmcfun
ff1e1370 __1cLComEndPointFsendv6MpnFiovec_i_i_ (c, ffbfedf8, 2, 2, c, 0) + 4
Why did the 'this' pointer of the instance of class ComEndPoint become 0xc? I don't think it is a valid value of pointer. Does anybody have any idea about this problem?
ff1e5b00 __1cYComTransaction_Icallback6FpnPpdo_transaction_pcii_v_ (6ab90, 0, 0, 0, ffbff1b8, 0) + dc
According to the source code, the 3rd parameter in the function below, which value is 0x66, was not changed in the scope of the function. However it became 0x0 when it was used as the 4th parameter to call the function above. What't the matter?
ff1528e8 pdo_dispatch (6ab90, ad, 66, 0, 0, 0) + dc
I heard that Sun C++ uses 'register windows' to pass the parameters, i0~i5 are used for the first 6 ones. Somebody told me that what I saw in the pstack might not be creditable because the registers might be changed within the function. Is that so? Would anybody plz tell me more details?
Thanks in advance.
Edited by: DirtyBear on Feb 15, 2008 1:17 AM

Register windows are a property of the SPARC computer architecture, not a property of a compiler. SPARC has multiple sets of registers. The function call instruction advances the "register window" to reveal the next set of registers, if there is one. If not, the registers are spilled to the stack to free up a window. The function return instruction moves the window back. (It's a purely hardware feature.) Eight of the registers in adjacent windows overlap, the origin of the "window" term. Registers %o0 thorugh %o7 in the caller become registers %i0 through %i7 in the called function.
On SPARC and x64, some function arguments are passed in registers, depending on how many arguments there are and their types. (The x86 architecture has no registers available for passing arguments.) On entry to a function, the parameters passed in registers might be saved on the stack, but do not necessarily need to be saved on SPARC. The Solaris ABI requires that space for the registers be allocated, but the space is not necessarily used.
In a core dump, the actual registers, particularly for functions other than the current one, are not available. The pstack operation doesn't know how many parameters a function has or what type they are. It shows the contents of the first 6 words on the stack that would hold arguments, if there were arguments, and if they were actually saved on the stack.
In optimized code on any platform, the stack area for a variable or argument is not kept up to date. Computations are kept in registers to the extent possible, and saved in memory only when necessary.
On SPARC in particular, the argument values shown in a stack trace need not be accurate.
