Unicode vs. Non-Unicode with MI

Hi all,
We are looking at doing an installation of MI. We are currently Non-Unicode on our ERP system, although a Unicode conversion project is not too far away.
According to the document: "How To Design a SAP NetWeaver Based System Landscape" (NW 7.0, ver 1, March 2008) on pg 15, it says:
"It is required that an MI system with AS ABAP has the same Unicode type as the MI back-end system: If your MI back-end system is a Unicode system, also install a Unicode MI system (that is, both AS ABAP and AS Java on Unicode); if your MI back-end system is non-Unicode, install an MI system with non-Unicode AS ABAP (that is, AS Java on Unicode and AS ABAP on non-Unicode).
Recommendation
For new installations, it is recommended to install a Unicode based system for all SAP applications and SAP NetWeaver deployments that require an AS ABAP usage type based system (AS JAVA is only available in Unicode). In future all new installations from SAP will be Unicode only."
This is clearly conflicting...We are an English-only shop, we have a Unicode conversion imminent, and SAP's direction is clearly Unicode.
Should we even consider a Non-Unicode install?
Thanks,
Troy

Hi,
install a unicode middleware system for the following reasons:
- Soon the BE will be unicode enabled.
- The MI client is anyway unicode enabled, this means the end users can enter unicode characters anyway. After Unicode conversion of the backend your MI server would be the only non unicode component.
- having the mw as unicode does not harm, even if the BE is non unicode (apart from the bigger DB size due to the code page)

Hi,
RFC communication takes care Unicode conversion. Question is how many languages are used in ERP 6.0. Non-Unicode -> Unicode should not be a problem but Unicode -> Non-Unicode is question.
Is it single codepage system or old MDMP system?

OS 10.7, SMB Connection, Change to Unicode with Extended Security on Windows Server 2008 Standard

Hi All, I've searched Google, and I've also contacted Apple Support with no luck: I want to implement unicode with extended security on Windows Server 2008 Standard server shared folders so that Lion can connect normally (i.e. Finder->Go->Connect to Server->IP Address or server name) to SMB shares and access files. I'm lacking information; has anyone actually implemented unicode with extended security? If so, how?
Thanks in advance.

Thanks for the reply aorlich. Do you mean enable file sharing on my Mac? With file sharing enabled, I still cannot get to my Windows 7 shares, although the files on my Mac do become available to Windows. Thanks again.

Hi,
Solutiona manager: I understand that it is to be installed to get solution manager key and we want only that. We are not using SM for anything else.
All we want is just to install ECC 6.0 IDES ABAP Stack.
Questions: 1. Can I install SM on a server and then install ECC 6.0 IDES on the same server?
2. If yes, what is the disk space required.
OR
Can I install SM on any other machine to get SM key and continue with ECC 6.0 installation?
How much space is required for SM to generate SM key?
Could anyone point me to OSS notes or give me some steps to go about it?
Thanks,

Non cumulative with non-cumulative change

Hi Experts,
I have a Question !, As i know that i can create Non-Cumulative Figure By Means Of two ways:-
1. Non cumulative with non-cumulative change and
2. Non Cumulative with Inflow and Outflow.
the second one is very clear but i am not very clear about 1st option i.e What Non-Cumulative Value changes is? and how it calculates the non-cumulative Value.
If u have an Idea please share your knowledge...
Ragards
Prakash

The 1st option is for key figures like headcount or similar, which you would like to store as a total figure in a cube instead of a DSO in a scenario where you are using a multiprovider on this together with other non-cumulative cubes.
The SAP help below explains this quite well

Non cumulative with non cumulative value change

hi,
can any one tell the concept of non cumulative with non cumulative value change with an example with numbers,i am bit confused .
like we have for non *** inflow and outflow- stocks inflow and outflow so non *** is based on inflow and inflow.
in the same way any example for above concept

Hi Venkat,
If I under stand your question correctly you wish to have an example of where non cumulative values are used and you have given the value of stock? If so here is an example with figures
So you would do an initial load loading the opening balances of Stock.
Say material number 12345 = 100 units
After that, only movements will be posted so Stock will either increase or decrease depending on what image is posted via the change log.
So there will be a purchase of material 12345 for 50 units so now the balance of material is 150.
But then you could use or sell 70 units of material 12345 so you stock value would be 80 units
I hope this makes sense and this is an example that you are after if not please let me know and I'm happy to help
Regards
Ben

Let us discussion "non recursive with clause" usage

I think there are 3 "non recursive with clause" usage.
My question is do you know more "non recursive with clause" usage ?

Another option is to use it to materialize remote data on the fly. Especially in combination with the materialize hint.
I think I used this tecnique once, but can't find the proper example anymore. Very simplified it could looked like this:
with fetchData as (Select /*+materialize */ * from myremoteTable@databaselink where status = 'CURRENT')
select *
from fetchdata r
full outer join localData l on r.id = r.id
where l.status = 'CURRENT'
;From 11g onwards: use the with clause to create better column names in larger select from dual combinations.
Not sure with that results in a suitable use case.
So instead of
with orders as
(select 1 id , 173 order#, 'John' customer, 'America' region from dual union all
select 2 id , 170 order#, 'Paul' customer, 'UK' region from dual union all
select 3 id , 240 order#, 'Hans' customer, 'Europe' region from dual union all
select 4 id , 241 order#, 'Francois' customer, 'Europe' region from dual )
select * from orders;you can now write
with
orders (id, order#, customer,region) as
(select 1 , 173 , 'John' , 'America' from dual union all
select 2 , 170 , 'Paul' , 'UK' from dual union all
select 3 , 240 , 'Hans' , 'Europe' from dual union all
select 4 , 241 , 'Francois' , 'Europe' from dual )
select * from orders;THis makes it a little easier to create tase data useing some excel sheet I guess.

Hi,
I'm from germany so no 'best buy' but I think I will lock around sleeve/bag for a different product with same measures. Any tip?
The clear plastic case is not what I want. I would like to use the player without such protections. I just want a sleeve to protect the player while its in my jacket/pants.
Btw, i have bought this version: Creative Zen (maybe european version?). I also doesn't seem to have your mentioned sleeve. I also couldn't find it on the website.
Anyway, thank you,

Please Help me.

You seem to stop the while loop to run the following code, then the program ends. Are you running this using the "continuous run" button????
You need one big while loop containing the acquisition, then you build up the history data in a shift register. Clicking "save" will save the data, but not stop the loop.
Why did you place a time-control in the FOR loop??? This is just post-processing so it should just do it without any delays. I don't understand the logic in the FOR loop. You are appending arrays, but then you delete the first element at each iteraction constantly trimming data from the beginning of the appended array. Then you autoindex at the output tunnel heavily duplicating all data. Ths make s no sense!
Can you explain how you want you data saved?

The media collection is on an external drive. And on my older Snow Leopard machine, the newly imported movie also shows up (with artwork) as it should.
Just not in iTunes 11 non-list )main movie) view.
Any ideas on this?
Cheers!

Wait - I meant to say that on the older machine the newly imported move shows up correctly using Front Row, not in iTunes.
Besides, i just noticed that my my hardware profile is not up to date - I am referring to an iMac running MountainLion 10.8.2

Mixing Unicode with non-unicode

Hi, Wwe have ECC 6.0 and BI 7.0 running on Windows 2003 and Oracle 10.2.0.4 all on non-unicode
We are about to install another BI 7.0 landscape.
If I install this new BI 7.0 on unicode, should I expect issues when communicating between systems such as BI loads?
Thanks.

BI-Java are in the works for 2009, so, I will need to convert my first BW instance to unicode... ouch, that part was not planned. so, I guess I will have a lot of work in 2009.
Technically it might work with a non-Unicode backend but you never know...
If your BI system is a single codepage system the UC conversion is not that big. The tools are meanwhile so good you shouldn´t have any big issues. Make sure you are on the latest BASIS support package, this will help a lot.
so, I will install the new BI landscape using unicode, that will save me from converting this system later.
yes - definitely.
And if the connected ERP (or CRM or whatever) backend is only single codepaged there won´t be any problems when you exchange data.

Unicode with Crystal Report for VS 2010

Dear,
Please help me, I have a big problem with Khmer Unicode to preview in Crystal Report IV 4.0 for Visual Studio 2010.
(I mean that it shows incorrect fonts), but when I use VS 2008, I always use CRAXTTRD.dll to render Khmer Unicode font, and In the new version of Crystal Report in VS 2010, I don't know how to find CRAXTTRD.dll to privewer reports.
so what can I do, please give the resolve for me, help.
Thanks in advanced, and I looking for your reply.
Sochinda

OK, once again, you cannot use that dll in VS 2008 or VS 2010. End of story.
Use our .NET Assemblies and RAS to replace the RDC.
There are plenty of samples in the below links:

Enterprise Samples (including managed and unmanaged ras)

IF you have any questions please post a new question, but search first and use the developers Help files for more info on each.
Managed RAS is to connect to a Business Objects Enterprise Server, you can remove that part of the code if it's there.
Unmanaged RAS is what you'll be using.

BW Unicode with ERP 2005

Hello,
I'd like to ask about Unicode.
I use BW 3.5 which is non-unicode.
this BW is connected with R/3 4.6C
I plan to upgrade R/3 from 4.6C to ERP 2005 and change from MDMP(English and Japanese) to Unicode.
In this case, will I have to change BW from non-Unicode to Unicode ?
If we didn't change, what would happen ?
Regards,
Koji

Hi Nagai,
Unicode system will accept all the codes and text in any languages.
Character encoding schema for (nearly) all characters used world wide..Each character has a unique number (Unicode code point)
so, better to Upgrade with unicode..
But one of the note(925170) recommends that If You are using the NetWeaver 2004s BI front end and you need to have Unicode BI systems.

Using Unicode with MS-SQL-Server 2000

Hello,
i want to migrate my coldfusion application to support
unicode. for that i read some articles here in the knowledge bas e
and on the web. So i actually tested with:
* correct use of cfcontent,cfprocessingdirective
* storing source-files with UTF8 (BOM)
* activating Unicode-handling for strings in
datasource-settings of coldfusion admin
* using nvarchar instead of varchar on mssql-server
my firsts test displaying diffrent characters of different
languages (chinese, japanese, arabic) look good. Tests storing and
selecting example strings in that languages also look good.
but now i read, that mssql stores unicode data with the UCS-2
implementation and cannot handle UTF-8 directly. but my
coldfusion-application will be converted to UTF-8.
now my question: Do i have to do special handling storing and
selecting the application data or does this the mssql jdbc driver
for me. What about characters in some languages which use 3 Bytes
in UTF8. How are they handled when MS-SQL-Server 2000 uses UCS-2
(max 2 Bytes) instead?
Many regards for your answers

no need to worry, the db driver will handle that for you.
just make sure your
encoding is the same end-to-end.
also a potential gotcha has just been exposed in unicode
handling for sql server
related to cfqueryparam under loads, you need to convert
everything to "N"
datatypes to avoid this. see jochem's blog:
