Unicode Enabling of HR ABAP programs

Hi everyone,
Would there be any difference in unicode enabling the normal ABAP programs and HR ABAp programs???
Can anyone please throw some light on this topic??
Please kindly respond.

Can we make ABAP programs Unicode enable after SAP sys is converted to uni

Hello Experts,
Can we convert the Non Unicode ABAP programs to Unicode after upgrading non unicode SAP system to Unicode?
Is there any serious problem?
If Non Unicode SAP is upgraded to Unicode without converting all non unicode ABAP programs to Unicode.
Thanks in advance.
Hari

Hi
There is no need of correcting the programs from Non unicode to Unicode
After migrating the system from non Unicode to Unicode you have to run certain Notes (which will be done by Basis) to take care of this.

Unicode Enabling Issues for HR ABAP.

Heay Guys,
I am working on a Unicode Enabling Project.
For those who has worked on a Unicode Enabling Project, could you please tell me if there would be any issues specific to HR ABAP Programs? This is an urgent requirement for me.
Please reply me as soon as possible.
Thanks and Regards,
Bhargava Kavuri.

Hi Bhargava,
I have some unicode related doc with me.
I will forward it to your id.
Those obslate statements are related to type
decarations. To find them you create ome small prog
and use PNP in that. and now you enable unicode
and do EPC it will show you all the obsolete
statements.
I have sent the help dod to your id please check now.
Thanks&Regards,

Unicode Printing in ABAP program

Hi all,
I have a problem in Unicode printing. When I write a report, I use Unicode font. Everything is Ok when I print preview this report. But when i send it to the printer, the unicode font doesn't present.
Do you know how to solve this problem ?
Thank you very much.
Sylvecast.

Hi Atish,
Yes, of course. I can print any word document with unicode font. I don't know if there must have any settings in ABAP program ? But when i print preview it, evrey thing is OK.
Kindly regards,

Getting errors while conversion of ABAP program into Unicode check

Hi,
I changed the one ABAP program for some requirement and try to save it, it is giving error that the program is not unicode compatible.I set the unicode checks active box under Attributes and again activate it .It is not allowing to concatenate the two variables which is declared as follows :
constants: c_tab type x value '09', "tab character
 c_cr type x value '0D'. "carriage return character
I tried to use field symbols but still giving error (code after change)
constants: c_tab type x value '09', "tab character
 c_cr type x value '0D'. "carriage return character
field-symbols : <f_c_tab> type any,
 <f_c_cr> type any.
Assign c_tab to <f_c_tab> CASTING type c.
Assign c_cr to <f_c_cr> CASTING type c.
error :The length of "C_TAB" in bytes must be a multiple of the size of a Unicode character (regardless of the size of the Unicode character).
pls guide me so that I can cancatenate the c_tab and c_cr variables

Hi,
Tab Character ----->Data: tab type c value cl_abap_char_utilities=>HORIZONTAL_TAB.
Carraige Return---->Data : cr(2) type c value cl_abap_char_utilities=>cr_lf..
You will not be able to use the concatenate statement for hexadecimal variables in unciode system.
Try using the above equivalent character variables. In unicode system avoid using hexadecimal variables wherever possible

Upgrade Sap R/3 4.6b to ECC 6.0 -unicode enabling

Hi,
I am going to work Upgrade Sap R/3 4.6b to ECC 6.0
My role only Unicode enabling syntax check.
Can any one explain what are the work involved in
Custom Reports, Custom Transaction and Screens, BDC, Enhancements and Exits(BTE), Script ,Custom DDIC
Particularly need information Sapscript forms
Regards,
Ram

Hi Ram,
For Unicode, transaction UCCHECK is your best friend. It will even tell you how to fix the error.
All programs Most of the time you will just go and set the Unicode Checks Active program attribute, save, activate.
- If there are Unicode errors, fix them.
http://iorboaz.blogspot.com/2008/03/sap-abap-solution-instructions-for.html
SAPScript - Not sure if it even needs Unicode-enabling. We are still in the middle of an upgrade. Will add more later.
Custom DDIC In our case, the BASIS team handled the Unicode conversion of the DDIC objects.I think they ran a consistency check first, then run SPUMG or something.
Search the web for a Combined Upgrade and Unicode Conversion Guide.
Hope this helps.

Unicode Enabling

Greetings,
We are going through an upgrade from 46C to ERP 5.0. Will we be able to unicode enable individule ABAP programs without setting the system to unicode enabled? Thanks in advance for your assistance.
Regards,
Jason

If your PRD system has been around for a long time, then YES. You should expect a large amount of work.
We have 3 R/3 PRD instances for 3 parts of the world.
We have applied Unicode to the 2 newer ones. It was a few days of hard work. But the systems are younger... and not a great deal of custom work.
Our original PRD system is 12.5 years old. We are not planning to go Unicode there. It would be an enormous project with little/no return to those businesses.

ABAP Program Warning

Hi Experts,
I got below error when checking an ABAP program, which was generated in maintaining datasouce with RSA6.
Description:
Type Group RSFH
In Unicode programs, the "-" character canot appear in names, as it does here in the name "RSFH_C_TFMETHODE-TEST".
Any input will be very appreciated.
Thanks,
Bill

Hi
It should be Warning Message, not an error i think.. Which Version of SAP you are working...
Still you can Execute the Program, as if its only Warning..
You can see that in the Attributes of the Program..
If it has a Program name , then goto SE38 -> give program name -> select Attributes Radio button.-> display....
You can see that is unicode enabled or not....

Triggering Event in BW through a ABAP Program in R/3

Hello Friends,
I am working on triggering a process chain in BW using ABAP program in R/3.
1. I have created a test process-chain in BW which sends test email upon running. This process chain is triggered by an event "Z_START_PC".
2. I created a function module "ZBW_EVENT_RAISE" which triggers this event.
 ( This function module is "remote enabled module")
3. I tested running the process chain, with function-module (SE37), which works fine.
 ( i.e. I do receive test-email after..)
4. Now I created a ABAP program "ZBW_EVENT_RAISE" in R/3.
 The code of which is as follows:
 REPORT ZBW_EVENT_RAISE.
 parameters: rfcdest like t000-logsys.
 parameters: bwevent like tbtco-eventid.
 call function 'ZBW_EVENT_RAISE'
 destination rfcdest
 exporting
 eventid = bwevent.
5. When I try to run this ABAP program in R/3 (SE38),
 The process chain does not get triggered.
(a) The "rfcdest" i got from SM59 - RFC Destinations -
 R/3 Connections - BW Development Server Client
 Value is "BWDCLNT999".
How do I go about debugging this issue? I know for sure, the BW- function module -- to Trigger -- to Process-chain is working fine. Only part is R/3 to B/W function module starting.
Any help is appreciated.
I promise to award points.
Thanks
PK

in ST05 there is an option for RFC trace. Not sure how much detail that will give you but you can try.
It is possible that your userid doesn't have an RFC call authorization in R/3. Do a SU53 immediately after running the program.
Also, replace the FM with any other FM that you know for sure runs (eg some BAPI FM) and run it - either in SE37 in R/3 with RFC destination for BW, or, from your code itself and see if that works (you can check return code).

Err with scheduling an abap program using open dataset

issue: have an abap program which uses "open dataset ... for input ..." to read the file.
- with manual ly running it, receive the following message "dataset_not_open".
- with scheduling it, receive same message
attempting to run an abap program as part of a process chain (ie scheduling a background job) in BI.
the abap performs the following fxns:
1) read a file on the server
2) removes delimiter, renames it
3) rewrites the file onto the server
initially used ws_upload for reading and ws_download for writing the file.
- both fxns worked fine if it is run manually --> but failed as a background (part of process chain)
- note 7925 states can't use ws_upload, download for background jobs
-so switched to "open dataset"
Any suggestions as to why the "open dataset" does not work is greatly appreciated it.
B.A.

Thank you for all responses. here is more info about the err message:
sy-subrc = 8
'invalid argument'
I looked up the invalid argument in note 99155 --> due to "The destination file is no longer available during repeated file access. "   So, the following steps were taken:
- file was regenerated and
- file was placed on the server to be read
have the following code:
OPEN DATASET FILENAME FOR OUTPUT IN TEXT MODE encoding default
                      MESSAGE D_MSG_TEXT.
also have tried the following:
   OPEN DATASET d1 for input in text mode encoding default.
   open dataset d1 for output in text mode encoding NON-UNICODE..
   open dataset d1 for output in text mode encoding utf-8.
none had worked. system --> status shows no unicode.
THanks again for any suggestions.

I have added authorization check in ABAP program(Progran level security).
i assume you have coded call authority within the program.
If an end user runs the transactionm, then which authorization check will fire first?
if he calls the transaction, then first authorization attached to the transaction will be checked.
but if he executes the program attached to the transaction, then the authorization attached to the transaction dosent help here, the one coded in side the program is checked.
If I have web enabled my ABAP program via SICF (in other words, ITS).
it depends,
if you are calling your transaction like
webgui/?~transaction=<tcode> then first tcode level authorization.
if you generate the templates for the program and callign the same, then i guess its progam level. (i need to check this)

Queries related to ABAP Programs migration to SAP ECC 6.0

We are planning to re-implement SAP using SAP ECC 6.0 We are currently using SAP R3 Version 4.7
Regarding migration of existing ABAP Programs and data, I have some queries which may kindly be answered by any of the experts of this forum.
1. I have heard that SAP ECC 6.0 or SAP Netweaver 7.0 will never support BDC programs. To upload data into SAP, BAPI is the preferred option. Is that true?
2. In ABAP Programming, relational operator < (less than), > (greater than), <= (less than or equal to) etc are not supported by SAP Netweaver 7.0. In stead, operator contants LT, GT, LE etc must be used. Other wise, SAP reports syntax error. Is thar true?
3. Screens (Dynpros) have been fully programmed in ABAP Objects in almost all programs related to functional modules (SD,MM,PP,FI/CO etc) in SAP ECC 6.0. Is that true?
4. Programs written in SAP R/3 Version 4.7 will report syntax errors when that program is compiled as it is in SAP Netweaver. Is that true?
I request you to kindly reply for these four queries at the earliest.
Thanking you,
K. RANGARAJAN
ABAP Programmer

SAP ECC6.0 will be supporting BDC programs too.But ,apart from this there are other options like LSMW ,BAPI, ECATT tool
which serves the same purpose . It doesnot mean that SAP wont support BDC.
Coming to relational operators u can use both of them but preferred is operator contants LT, GT, LE.
If there are any obsolete statements or any Obsolete function modules used in version4.7 U will get syntax errors or unicode errors.

Create a DDic sturcture via ABAP program

Hello,
is it possible to create a DDic structure via a ABAP program? I've got the components and component type of the new structure in a table.
I want to create a DDic structure with this information. Is there function module or a method, with this functionality?
Thanks for help!
Matthias

I need a DDic structure to use this in the exporting parameters of an remote-enabled function module. Thier isn't it posible to use an none typed parameter, because of the remote.
I want to create an admin-screen for an tool calls DocFinder. For this tool you need for every DocuSpace an extra structure to return the values.
We use this tool in an shared systemlandscape so its nessessary to use an remode-enabled function module.
In the admin-screen it should be able to create an new DocuSpace with its structures and other generatet coding.
But I've got no idea how to create an structure via programm.

ABAP program and FB for value mapping replication

Hi,
we are using a 40B system and I want to use the value mapping replication in XI. To refill the data into the XI database I must write an ABAP and a function module to transfer the data out of R/3 into XI (via RFC). Has anybody an example how the program (and the FB) must look like? i.e I want to read table mvke and extract the materialnumber and the prodhierarchy.
Thanks and best regards
Arnold

Hi Arnold,
First you need a table type with a structure like follows:
operation
groupid
context
identifier
agency
scheme
(corresponding to the Interface ValueMappingReplication)
All used data elements should have type string or charXX
for example: operation - char10, groupid - char32, rest - char120
Next you create a function module with attribute 'remote-enabled module'.
The import parameter is your new table structure.
Next you create an ABAP program. Here an example:
report z_value_mapping .
tables mvke.
data:
p_value_mapping type zvalue_mapping,
p_value_mapping_table type zvalue_mapping_table.
p_value_mapping-operation = 'Insert'.
p_value_mapping-context = 'http://xi.com/Material'.
select * from mvke where matnr between '170' and '501'.
check not mvke-prodh is initial.
* Create a value mapping group to join two entries.
* use a unique 32 digit number.
concatenate '00000000000000' mvke-prodh into p_value_mapping-groupid.
translate p_value_mapping-groupid using ' 0'.
* Store the mapping source as first entry to the group
p_value_mapping-identifier = mvke-matnr.
p_value_mapping-agency = 'SenderAgency'.
p_value_mapping-scheme = 'MATNR'.
append p_value_mapping to p_value_mapping_table.
* Store the mapping target as second entry to the group
p_value_mapping-identifier = mvke-prodh.
p_value_mapping-agency = 'ReceiverAgency'.
p_value_mapping-scheme = 'PRODH'.
append p_value_mapping to p_value_mapping_table.
endselect.
* Push data to XI
call function 'Z_VALUE_MAPPING' in background task
destination 'IS_XID'
exporting
value_mapping = p_value_mapping_table.
commit work.
Import the RFC to the Integration Builder, create a mapping between your RFC and the interface ValueMappingReplication.
Check this Blog for additional steps:
/people/sreekanth.babu2/blog/2005/02/23/value-mapping-replication
Choose names for context, agency and scheme which are useful your scenario.
Regards
Stefan

Question on security in ABAP program with ITS. Please help!

Hi Experts,
I have a question on security in ABAP program.
I have a ABAP program which has a transaction attached.
I have added authorization check in ABAP program(Progran level security).
I have also attached the authorization object to the transaction.(Transaction level security)
If an end user runs the transactionm, then which authorization check will fire first? Will it be transaction level?
If I have web enabled my ABAP program via SICF (in other words, ITS). Then when I try to run my ITS service in the browser will the transaction level authorization fire? or Will the program level authorization fire?
Please help me understand this security aspect.
Thanks
Gopal
