Upgrade to SAP ERP changes in XI - Release Transfer, Metadata, SLD, Idoc's

We are upgrading from SAP R/3 40B to SAP ECC 6.0
I would like to know what steps I need to do in XI to ensure that none of the current maps are broken.
Can you point me to documentation, links that might help determine the required steps I need to take.
One of the IDocs used is DELVRY01 - I see in 6.0 there are additional fields so this will have to be updated in XI. By doing so what effect will this have on the current maps - in addition I gather the Software Component Version in the maps will need to be changed to point to 6.0
Any advise on this will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
Mark

what was the answer to this?

Upgrade IDES SAP ERP Central Component 5.0

Hi, we have to upgrade IDES system from patch level 43 to 104, i tried to find the upgrade stacks but couldn't find anything, pls help.

Hi Ambarish,
The IDES upgrade is not recommended and not supported by SAP. Reason being, IDES content contains many objects in the customer namespaces and the upgrade would certainly run into issues due to these. SAP Support also cannot be sought for, as the upgrade itself is not recommended. We have performed IDES upgrades, but encountered many issues during the procedure.
u201CIDES Content: Please note that all Support Packages / Enhancement Packages / Upgrades do not have any additional IDES-specific parts. You will not find additionaly demo data in your system after a technical upgrade.u201D
This states that standard SAP content delivery routes (SPs, EhPs, Upg exports) will not contain any IDES content, which is logical. The IDES content is not required by all customers needing SPs, EhPs or upgrades.

We have to upgrade from SAP 4.0 version to ECC6.0(only EDI/IDOC effects)

Hi All,
We have to upgrde a system from SAP 4.0 version to ERP6.0, is there any difference in EDI and IDOC
tables or their types in ERP6.0 from the 4.0 version, which we have to also consider or not.
but if differences are there but SAP itself is taking care for that, then how the sap is taking care of that ..?

I´m not sure what you mean by "old table to new table".
The general table structure is not changed, VBAK + VBAP are still there. They may have been extended by additional fields, depending on how your system is implemented. It´s also possible, that if you activate any business function after the upgrade, that tables will get appends.
The old IDOC structures working before the upgrade should work after the upgrade the same way since those structures are not touched.

Install SAP ERP 6.0 EHP6 on NW 7.31

Hello all,
some month ago i upgraded our ERP 6.0 System to EHP 6. The NetWeaver Release after the upgrade was 7.31. Now i want to install a new EHP6 system directly from scratch. I searched through the sofware marketplace but didnt find what im looking for. The only things i found are EHP6 on NW 7.3 or EHP6 on 7.03.
But i want 7.31! Do you have an idea what to do?
I thought about installing NetWeaver 7.31 but cannot find the ERP components donwload media. Did it got a new name or is this way not possible?
I have another question. When I search for installions of EHP6 under

Upgrade from SAP R/3 Enterprise 4.70 to ECC 6.0

Hi experts,
I am currently trying to build some knowledge for my final project. (Working as an apprentice in computer science atm)
Main goal of the project is to upgrade our dev system to ECC 6.0.
As far as I understand it, ECC 6.0 ONLY works with NetWeaver 7.0. Do I need to upgrade to NW7 before I upgrade to ECC 6.0 or is there a all-in-one package, which upgrades both at once?
I browsed through a few upgrade guides but didn't really find an explaination I could understand...
Could someone describe the basic steps for such an upgrade? (Like: Copy System - Upgrade NW - Install Components....)
Kinda desperate
Thanks in advance!
Sandro Bollschweiler
P.s.: I hope I used the right Forum for my question...

Hi,
When you upgrade to SAP ERP 6.0 (ECC 6.0), the underlying technology within the SAP R/3 4.7 system is automatically upgraded to the SAP NetWeaver 7.0 version. It is one upgrade;
SAP R/3 4.7 -
> upgrade -
> SAP ERP 6.0
SAP Web AS -
> SAP NetWeaver 7.0
The upgrade guides are you best place for information. The SAP ERP 6.0 has the steps to follow and all requirements.
For installations, please see the aptly named installation guide title "Master guide - SAP ERP 6.0". Both the upgrade and installation guides are available at service.sap.com/instguides.
For system copy info, see the SDN page: System Copy and Migration
There is some demo examples here too
All the best,
Mike.

Main advantages of SAP ECC6.0 over SAP ERP 4.7

Hello All,
I'm looking for some basic and important differences between SAP ECC 6.0 and SAP ERP 4.7 Versions from purely technical perspective.
Also please list some major advantages of using ECC 6.0.
Please do not paste any reference links or any website for the same.
I'm expecting answers like:
- ECC6 is available with Net-weaver WAS JAVA+ABAP.
- It supports Adobe forms.
- While executing debugging in report, 2 sessions are opened. 1 for program and another for debugging mode.
Regards,
Sushil.

Brand new SAP ERP Installation

In my small consulting firm we want to setup an ECC system in our lab to give Demo to our Business Objects customers.
So, here are my doubts:
If we would like to install IDES which is the latest version do you suggest to download.
Also, do you think, 400GB of Hard Disk should be sufficient enough for the ECC and Database Installation?
Which set of files i should download from Service Market Place under this path as i am finding quite a few of them which are confusing.
SAP ERP 6.0 -> Microsoft Windows -> Microsoft SQL-Server
Thanks,
Tilak

hi tiak,
we would like to install IDES which is the latest version
You can find latest version of SAP IDES from below link.
https://websmp107.sap-ag.de/support --> Installations and Upgrades - E" SAP ERP" SAP ERP ENHANCE PACKAGE" EHP6 FOR SAP ERP 6.0
IDES Version
Which set of files i should download from Service Market Place
click on IDES Version and You can download files as per your requirement.
400GB of Hard Disk should be sufficient enough for the ECC and Database Installation?
400GB is enough space.
IDES is available with Oracle.

Limit send of IDoc from SAP-ERP to SAP-XI or a Non-SAP

Hi guys,
I send the following IDocs from SAP-ERP over SAP-XI to Non-SAP for an initialload: Artmas, Bommat, Infrec, Cond_a, Mmaddi, Cremas
Example: Artmas with TA: BD10.
Problem: SAP-ERP send all 25'000 IDoc to SAP-XI. The effect is that the qRFC and tRFC in SAP-XI is full, because the Non-SAP is not fast enough to takeover the Idocs. From then other systems can't send out or get in Idocs.
I tried to limit in WE20, but it didnt work. TA: RSEOUT00 ist not so useful, because of the quantity of the IDocs.
Is in SAP-ERP a possibility to limit the sending of IDocs to SAP-XI or Non-SAP?
Example: Automatic sending of 200 Idocs every 2 Minute.
Thanks

may be u can write a wrapper above BD10 this way
report zaRs message-id b1.
select-options: matsel for marav-matnr matchcode object mat1.
parameters: receiver like tbdlst-logsys no-display.
start-of-selection.
select * from mara into i_mara where matnr in matsel.
refresh : matsel.
v_no = 0.
loop at i_mara.
    move i_mara-matnr to matsel-low
* fill up sign option etc.
    append matsel
do.
   move mara
   if v_no = 200.
    submit rbdsemat " Program behind BD10
          with logsys eq receiver
          with matsel in matsel
          with mestypat eq 'ARTMAS'
          and return.
          wait 20 seconds
    exit.

Upgrade of SD to SAP ERP 2005, FI stays on SAP R/3 4.0

Hi,
There is a task to upgrade first the SD module to SAP ERP 2005,
but keep the FI module running on SAP R/3 4.0
Is it possible to implement it like this?
Have anyone been dealing with such distributed integration before?
Best regards
Maxim

Technically you can upgrade , but SD is highly integrated with FI like credit check , tax etc . With the upgrade it might change the structure of table the link between both the system might effected. You should talk to the Functional consultants and they can give you the advice

Need clarification on application of OSS Release Note:391846 in SAP ERP 6.0

Hi Experts,
We are upgrading the SAP R/3 4.7 to SAP ERP 6.0 in one of our client. In SAP R/3 4.7, OSS Note:391846 has been applied for Automatic Explosion of BOM while converting the planned order. I would like to know whether this functionality is covered in SAP ERP 6.0 or is it required to apply the same OSS note in SAP ERP 6.0?
Thanks in advance.
Venkat Bandaru

Dear Venkat,
note 391846 is also valid for ERP600.
This modification is not part of the SAP Standard Release 600. It's also in 600 a modification.
If you want this function you have to implement the note again in your actual release.
Regards,
Sabine

Thanks,

Edited by: Arijeet Ganguly on Sep 15, 2009 11:49 PM

Hi Amirsd,
You will need to use your Solution manager system to apply EHP 4 to your newly installed system.
Use MOPZ to generate XML file which contains the packages to be downloaded to upgrade your current system to EHP 4.0
After that download EHPI tool from SAP Marketplace and use EHPI tool to install downloaded packages.
It would run in 7 phases including downtime phase.
Let me know if you have any queries. !!!!

Check this note, though not applicable to your upgrade version. This can give you some clue.

Also try to stop the Shadow instance, restart it manually and try to repeat this phase.

SAP ERP 6.0 EHP7 upgrade optimal resources

Hi,
        I am performing EHP7 up gradation on SAP ERP 6.0.
SYSTEM H/W: 8 CPU's   50 GB RAM
OS : windows server 2008 R2
DB: oracle 11.2.0.5.0
SAP source release : ERP 6.0
SAP target release : ERP 6.0 including EHP 7
     I have performed above said activity on test system / development system / quality system /production system. The time to complete different systems varied beyond my expected/planned values.
     I understood that there are users logged into production system till pre processing stage of SUM tool.So the long running phases (ACT_UPG , SHADOW_IMPORT , etc ) took approximately double the time than other systems.
     May i know various other other reasons ,for productions system , which reduces performance (in terms of run time).Is there any ways to improve performance (in terms of run time) .
     I have increased R3trans processes,Batch process to higher values during configuration phase of SUM tool.What are the optimal values which can be given in for fast upgrade.
thanks & regards
uday reddy

First read the SAP note 1616401 - Understanding parallelism during the Upgrades, EhPs and Support Packages implementations to understand how you can make use of parallelism when you are doing an upgrade. There is no point in having more R3trans processes assigned when there is no sufficient resources available on the server. In order to make effective use of this you should make sure there is enough CPU and memory available on the system.
The activation phase is expected to run for a long time but there are possibilities to improve the performance by adapting the memory parameters of the shadow system. You may refer to these SAP notes 1674812 - Performance improvement for ACT_UPG
1223360 - Composite SAP Note: Performance optimization during import
1897538 - Long runtimes when accessing DD27S in ACT_UPG phase
