Using ERP ECC 6.0 as BI

Hi,
Can we use our ERP ECC .6.0 as my BI server for Reporting needs of the ERP?
If Yes
1.What are the settings need to be done in ECC 6.0 .?
2.What are the constraints of Using OLTP as OLAP?
3.What is the Lanscape recommmed for best practices of BI Functionality?
4. Will the ECC.60 ERP supply all the requirements for BI like IP, Open hub etc RDA.?
Please help to solve the queries??
Regards,
dk

1.What are the settings need to be done in ECC 6.0 .?
Nothing much - you just have to have access to the tcodes like RSA1 etc... this is usually set by BASIS.
2.What are the constraints of Using OLTP as OLAP?
You are using the same DB for OLTP as well as OLAP - the database config remains the same across the systems. There might be issues with regard to DB configuration and performance / locking etc.
3.What is the Lanscape recommmed for best practices of BI Functionality?
Use the same as ECC
4. Will the ECC.60 ERP supply all the requirements for BI like IP, Open hub etc RDA.?
IP - yes ...
Open Hub - sould be possible
RDS - since the DB is the same - use real time data reporting using virtual infoproviders instead of RDA....
One more thing is that you can look at doing more real time reporting off the ECC data since the DB is shared.
Also you will have to configure the JAVA stack.

Catalog views for ERP E-Commerce for MySAP ERP ECC 5.0

We are implementing the R/3 version of CRM-ISA (ERP E-Commerce for MySAP ERP ECC 5.0).
We need to implement product catalog views to allow filtering based on specific attributes.
We have created a custom function module Z_ISA_READ_CATALOG_COMPLETE to replace ISA_READ_CATALOG_COMPLETE and Z_ISA_CUSTOMER_READ_CAT_VIEWS to replace ISA_CUSTOMER_READ_CAT_VIEWS.
But when we test from ISA the FM Z_ISA_READ_CATALOG_COMPLETE does not get invoked through RFC.
There is an SAP NOTE 998453 that we checked but it is still a pilot version.
Has anyone implemented the catalog views without the notes? Can we do the catalog views without the note? If so, how can we meke custom FM work? Please advice.
Thanks,
VK

Check the following.
1. The XCM file modification-config.xml replaces both the function modules
2. The checkbox to use the catalog views is checked for your webshop
3. Catalog is published to TREX and you are using TREX catalog instead of Memory catalog.
I don't think these notes work without TREX. I'd be interested in learning if anyone successfully implemented Catalog views with ECC ECO without using TREX.

Local disks that are connected directly to the MSCS nodes% ·4
Shared disks that can be accessed by all MSCS nodes via a shared interconnect
NOTE
Shared disk is a synonym for the MSCS resource of Resource type Physical disk.

Publishing MA to ERP: What validations are included with Use ERP Validation

If I select the "Use ERP Validation" checkbox in my integrated document type for Master Agreements, what is the list of validations that will be enforced? I would like to know this so that I know what additional custom validations I should add that are not included with the standard selected. The SAP Integration Guide does not give this level of detail. Thanks.

Hi,
Here are some hints:
@Header:
Some of the validations done here are related to filelds in the integration tab like transaction type, purchasing org, purchasing group, . The fields mandatory check & replicated flag check on this objects are checked..
in addition at the Contract document level other integrated objects like vendor, payment terms are also checked for replication flags.. The purchase org selected in integration tab should match one of vendor's purchase org.
@Item:
There is an array of validations again.. here the focus is the master data used in line items are checked for consistency:
1. If Plant is replicated, check that it is assigned to a company code. 2. All item plants must belong to the same Company Code and this must match the Company Code on the header. If Plant is not set, it is treated as valid. 3. If both Plant and P-org are ECC replicated, check that there exists a relationship.
Guess best way to go forward is to do some tests for your particular scenario and see if it is covered in standard. if not you can implement a custom validation in the prepublish script
Thanks, baski

Create universe based on SAP ERP (ECC 6.0)

Hi experts,
I have a short questions which is hopefully easy to answer.
Is it recommended, if I want to create a universe based on the SAP ERP System to directly connect to the underlying database or should I use the Data Federator to connect to a universe?
I have no data warehouse and I dont want to craete one. I`m using BO Edge BI 3.1 and ECC 6.0.
First I only want to build a universe with one data source (ERP). I know that if I want to join several sources I must use Data Federator or Data Integrator.
Can anyone help me with this question?
Thanks al lot and have a nice day
Daniel

Hi,
As I said this is the only way to build universes on SAP ERP (ECC 6.0).
This application is currently a prototype but it is planned to deliver an official support of SAP ERP (ECC 6.0) by Data Federator in the coming weeks.
Data Federator will be used for both XI 3.1 and BI 4.x to access SAP ERP data: this access will be provided only for the XI 3.1 release, we also plan to support it in BI 4.1.

Use of ECC 6.0 with PI 7.0 server?

use of ECC 6.0 with PI 7.0 server?
what are the requirements for uploading wsdl and Tpz files from service Market Place to PI 7.0 server?

Hi
RZ70 automatically creates and uses an RFC to the SLD - assuming this RFC can communicate over your network
setup it should work
BTW You can always add a system manually to SLD or from other SLDs content as well - just in case this doesn't work

Multi system scenario - ERP ECC 5.0 (or lower) - FSCM 6.0 Ehp4

Dear colleagues,
If you are dealing with a multisystem scenario, where ERP ECC is in versión (5.0 or lower) and your FSCM system is in 6.0 with Ehp4, can you take advantajes of the new functionalities released in Ehp2, Ehp3 and Ehp4? or is it mandatory to upgrade your ERP ECC system to 6.0?
Kind regards.

Hi Deep,
I have confirmed this in Note 859995 - Upgrade to SAP Dispute Management 6.0 for FI AR
"If your Accounts Receivable Accounting system is Release R/3 4.6C, note that SAP Dispute Management 6.0 does not offer any more up-to-date functions than SAP Dispute Management 3.0."
This should apply for any landscape, one system scenario and two system scenario, right?

Delivery Address in SRM - use of ECC plant address

Hello experts,
we are using SRM 7.0 in the classic scenario. Our goal is to use the ECC plant address as delivery address in ECC purchase orders. This is working just fine if the delivery address in SRM is neither maintained through the attributes nor manually. The only problem for the enduser is, that the ECC plant address is not visible in SRM.
Is there a possibility to make the plant address visible in the SRM Shopping Cart?
Thanks in advance.
T.

For this you may need to put some simple RFC log in DOC_Change_BADI..
Logic:
Pre-requirement:
Mapping between Storage location and ECC address number..
Business logic
Once the use select a storage location the Doc_Change Log will call the ECC to get the address info and populate accordingly under Delivery address tab..
Advantages:
You don't have a risk here to maintain the address information in SRM..
Thanks!!

Any case study on using ERP sales order vs CRM Sales order in IC WEB UI

Hi All,
Currently we have a requirement where in agent uses ERP Sales order functionality in IC WEB UI for creating sales order. Incase of any incompleteness in order or any pricing error an activity should get created and should get assinged to Back office guy(CRM User).
My approach is as follows, we will call a custom FM in CRM from the user exit associated with Sales order transaction, This logic gets executed on save of ERP sales order.This custom FM will create an activity in CRM and assing it to back office guy. Other approach is to use the IDOC linked to the VAO1 transaction which inturns calls the custom fm.
Can you please suggest if you have any better approach to this.
Recently we came to know that ERP Sales order has got limited functionalities. If some one has a case study doc on ERP Sales order vs CRM sales order pls give me the ref link.
Thanks,
udaya

Hi Udaya,
Calling a Customer Specific R/3 Transaciton was quite easy in CRM 4.0 / 5.0 in the PC-UI Framework using Object Links. You can do that all by customizing and creating a custom method for a BOR Object in Transaction SWO1.
I think I've used CRM_ORDER_MAINTAIN to update the Document Flow. The subsequent activities where created by BAPI_ACTIVITYCRM_CREATEMULTI. I've wrapped all that standard functions in a RFC enabled function module.
It would be possible to provide also a link in the E-Mail to the Manager but the client is using a Citrix environment to provide access to the Portal. But Outlook runs locally. So we decided to use the standard Portal iView to display the Alerts. When you fill the Alert Container with the elements OBJKEY_GUID, OBJKEY_BOR_OBJECT_TYPE, OBJKEY_CRM_OBJECT_TYPE, OBJKEY_METHOD and OBJKEY_LOGICAL_SYSTEM using the Function Module SWC_ELEMENT_SET that provides a direct link to the specific document too.
Best regards

Use of ECC planningtime fence when planning with APO SNP

I am using SAP ECC for execution, and SAP APO SNP heuristics for planning.
So, for a product planned in APO, the MRP type in ECC is X0.
So, as there is no MRP planning in ECC for such a product, what is the use of the ECC planning time fence? I think it becomes redundant in ECC - yes? In fact, I do not see it in the stock reqs list (MD04).
So, in ECC, all that 'planners' can do is to manually reschedule planned/production orders - yes?
Any shortage alerts will only be visible in APO - yes?
Thanks for any advice on this...

Hi
Please find below the answers from my side.
Two questions in my mind...
So, if MRP type = X0 in ECC, the planning time fence is not seen in MD04.
First of all, we should not have any planning time fence in ECC, as it is not adding any value for products with MRP type X0. Yes in MD04 we can not see it.
2. How can ECC users easily distinguish between planned orders which are in the 'short term' from those which are beyond the SNP production horizon?
I think they have to use APO alerts. I think that should be right approach as APO is leading planning tool.
Thanks
Amol
