Using SAP BW on top of more than one SAP HCM instance

Hi!
I am an SAP HCM consultant and got the following questions from one of my customers.
The customer has two standalone SAP HCM instances in different countries. In the future they might decide to migrate these instances to one single client, but their first priority is implementing a SAP BW that can be used to report over the two countries, i.e. it should be populated with data from the 2 different SAP HCM instances.
What is a a good approach?
Do you know of other customers having done this?
Should the systems later be migrated to one single client, would this mean a lot of rework (provided the same configuration/infotypes will be used in the new client)?
Any input is highly appreciated!

Many clients face this situation. You can always load data from same area in BW from two different source systems.
Biggest issue which I faced in this kind of situation was records with same identity in diff systems. Ex: empolyee # 1011 might correspond to different employees in 2 diff country. You can avoid this kind of situation by compunding with source system characterisitic.
Other then that depending in your requirement you may consolidate enterprise wide data in BW.

Can I use the same iCloud account on more than one PC?

I'm new to iCloud. I use Apple devices but a PC both at home and work. I'd like to have the same iCloud account on both PCs, but not sure if I can do this. Can anybody clarify please?
Thank you.

Yes, you can use the same iCloud account on more than one device. Thats actually the basic idea of iCloud, syncing and exchanging data of different devices without a cable. E.g. your address book on the iPhone is modified and you computer gets the changes via iCloud…

Can I use my iTunes Store account with more than one PC ?

Hi all,
Am I able to use my iTunes Store account with more than one PC ?
I use my account on my PC - but I would like to download the latest version of iTunes onto my Mum's laptop, log in to my own iTunes Store account and rent a movie for her to download onto the laptop.
Is this possible and would I still be able to use my account on my PC at the same time?
Many thanks,
Steve.

Good question.
I don't think you can--if I'm incorrect, someone will tell me--but it seems to me to be easier to simply open an iTunes account for your mom. Then get her a gift card, load it into iTunes for her, and rent a movie that way. Not elegant at all...but workable.

Can I use the same email address in more than one community? How?

Can I use the same email address in more than one community? How?

Yes, you can be a member of multiple communities under the same email address. You will need to be invited to those communities. If you are trying to create new communities under the same address, you will not be able to do that through our website.

How to use the same credit card for more than one customer master

Hi,
this is a question for consultants at least a little familiar with SAP business partner, Customer-vendor-intergration cvi, contract accounting:
My customer wants to store the same credit card with more than one customer. Arguments are that family members or partners may mutually agree to use the same credit card for their distinct purchases.
I never tried with amazon or the likes but I know that SAP validates the uniqueness of credit cards.
I found 6 code line where the message (V/)005 "Payment card &1 &2 is already assigned to customer &3" prohibits duplicate assignment.
Even if I create a couple of enhancements to suppress the error, I don't know how the system will work.
The customer does not like the idea of using alternative payer.
Did you ever face the same problem and how did you solve it?
Much Thanks in advance
Best regards
Clemens

thanks

How is it possible to connect more than one SAP R/3 4.6c System to TREX 6.1

Hi,
I'm using SAP TREX 6.1 together with an 4.6c System. Now I want to connect the TREX to more than one R/3 System, so that every R/3 System has got its own Index-Category on the TREX Host.
Does somebody know what I have to enter in the ini files -->TREXRfcServer.ini and in the TREXDaemon.ini? Perhaps there are some other important things that have to be considered at the usage of TREX 6.1 with 2 or more connected SAP R/3 Systems?!
I would be happy about every helpful answer!
greetings,
Chris

Hi Edmond Wong,
Follow the steps below and you should be able to connect via SAP Logon Ticket.
1. Set your system definition in portal to read SAPLOGONTICKETS.
2. Go to your R3 server and execute transaction SM30, maintain table view TWPSSO2ACL
3. Create a new entry with your portal ID and client info. Subject name and Issuer name is extracted from your portal Key Administration under DN of Owner and DN or Issuer. Remember to enter your serial number (normally oo if you only have one portal instance on your server)save this entry.
4. Next download your portal certificate in der format from your Key Administration page. Unzip the file and you should have a verify.der certificate.
5. Execute STRUSTSSO2 in R3, import your verify.der certificate into R3, then click on add to certificate list, also click on add to ACL list. Save entry.
6 As for ITS, all you need is to add the parameter ~myssocookies2 = 1, restart your ITS.
7. remember to remove your user mapping befor testing the connectivity.
Drop me an email should you have problems. [email protected]

Using Remote Desktop Admin app in more than one user account.

Is possible to have the ARD admin app use the same database and settings over more than one user account?
eg. I have ARD setup on my Mac as I am in charge of our organisations Macs. However if I am away for a few weeks, one of our other techs would be able to turn on my Mac, log in to a generic account, open ARD and it would be set up exactly as I have it in my user account.
I know that I could manually set up ARD in the other account, but with the number of machines we have I would rather not have to re-enter all those admin passwords all over again, and then have to remember to update ARD in the other account everytime we get a new machine or make other changes.

In theory, you could simply copy the com.apple.RemoteDesktop.plist into the preferences folder of the other user. Then they would simply have to know the Remote Desktop Password (which is probably stored in your KeyChain.)
I've never tried this, but it seems like it would work.

Can I use my lightroom 5 CD on more than one computer? Toshiba to my new Mac Book Pro?

I have Lightroom 5 CD that I've used for 2 years in my Toshiba laptop. I have a new Mac Book Pro and was wondering if I purchase an external CD for it, can I use my software on my new computer. I wasn't sure if it can be used on more than one computer...It doesn't say on the software box.
Thank you so much!

There are normally three options: License, buy or try. See image below.
Did you double click on the package in downloads to start the installation?

I'm using an iPhone 4. I used to be able to send more than one picture at a time to another iPhone. Now I get messages that it cannot be delivered. What's going on?

While on vacation in Canada in July I started having trouble sending more than one pix at a time to other users. I don't recall having this problem before. Is there a limit on the number of pictures you can send via text? I wonder if I messed up some settings while I was in Canada. I had things set so that I could not receive phone calls so I wouldn't get charged. Could I have messed up text / multimedia settings as well?

We want your phone working just as well now as it did before your trip, sngbrd9. Are you trying to send the pictures to other Apple users using iMessage or are they being sent through MMS/picture messaging? Are you able to send pictures one at a time to those same contacts without an error? Did you change any settings in your camera to have HDR now instead of a slightly lower resolution with a smaller file size?

HT3819 Why can't I use my apple TV to share more than one iTunes account?

My partner and I both have seperate iTunes accounts, understandably. And we both use our appleTV, understandably. Why can't we set up apple TV to play music / watch shows from both of our computers? I hope this is not because I haven't read the manual.

You CAN use the ATV to share more than one iTunes library. Homesharing however require you to use the SAME apple ID on both computer. I have homesharing turned on both my girlfriend and my computer with me signed in on both computers and the ATV. Both itunes librarie show up on the ATV as long as both computer are ON.

Is it possible to connect a DEV System to more than one SAP Solution Manage

Hello,
My system DEV is already connected to a first SAP Solution Manager, I would also like to reconnect the same system so that it communicates and will be monitored by a second SolMan.
Is it possible to do so and the do the operation involve any risks ?
Thanks for your help
Regards
Ben

Hello,
This is possible in many scenarios. Often this is done to distribute load, for example on Solution Manager will do the Service Desk Function, one may do ChaRM, one may be doing Monitoring & Reporting, one may be doing Diagnostics.
In these cases a managed ssytem can be connected to many Solution Manager systems.
However as Mateus has pointed out, you cannot connect one managed to two Solution Managers and do SMD on both Solution
Manager systems, but you can have more than one Solution Manager doing Diagnostics.
Even in the case of EWA, while you can connect a Managed system to multiple Solution Manager systems and have then generate a report, one of the Solution Manager systems must be defined as the Master.
So the specific scenario may place some restrictions on connecting a managed system to more than one Solution Manager,
but for most instances it can be done.
Regards,
Paul

My serial number is not valid anymore ? I bought my photoshop and I have been using it for a little bit more than one year...

Hello,
I bought my Photoshop Extended (PC) last year in the US. I have been using it for a bit more than a year. Today, opening Photoshop, Adobe asks me to pay or enter my serial number. So I enter the number (again), and it says that the number is invalid.
My version is an official version, I paid for it.
What I am supposed to do now ?
Thx

More than one SAP systems on same Windows Server 2003 - Oracle 10g

Hello Experts,
We have Windows Server 2003 with 32 GB RAM, 2 quadcore CPU, plenty of space. Already running with NW 700 AS Java on Oracle 10g.
Now we need to install a seperate NW 700 AS Java central instance - so please help me in clarifying following doubts - we don't want to use MCOD.
1. Do we need to install Oracle 10g software again or we can use the existing Oracle 10g installed files. If yes then will the Oracle Home for both the SAP instances will be same - any steps needs to be done for that.
2. Any other steps which needs to be taken care before and after the second instance installation.
3.SAP Note 98252 - speaks about changes in oraInst.loc before the second instance installation - Does it applicable for Windows - Oracle environment also. I am not able to find out this file.
Listener and Tnsnames file changes mentioned in this note seems to be applicable on windows platform also.
Pointers to related documentation would be highly appreciated.
Thanks
Davinder

Hello Davinder,
> 1. Do we need to install Oracle 10g software again or we can use the existing Oracle 10g installed files. If yes then will the Oracle Home for both the SAP instances will be same - any steps needs to be done for that
Theoretical you can use the same ORACLE_HOME, but i would really recommend to install the database software again in a different ORACLE_HOME. It will make a lot of things easier
> 2. Any other steps which needs to be taken care before and after the second instance installation.
The same as by the first installation, but keep in mind of the listener port - you will need to specify a different one.
> Does it applicable for Windows - Oracle environment also. I am not able to find out this file.
On windows it is a registry key (for more information please take a look at metalink note #564192.1)
C:\>reg query HKLM\SOFTWARE\ORACLE /v inst_loc
