Versions in abap
hi i am very new to SAP pls any one tell me about the versions of ABAP. which is the first version when did it released and all.
Here is some history.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ABAP
Basically ABAP started a couple decades ago, and has been enhanced over the years, with some slight renaming as well. From ABAP to ABAP/4 to ABAP Objects. Mainly the new features and functions of ABAP come with new versions of NetWeaver and support packages.

How to check Adobe Live Cycle Designer version in ABAP Workbench ?
Hi,
Please advise how to check Adobe Live Cycle Designer version in ABAP Workbench ? Currently i am using NW 7.0 SP18 (ABA,BASIS).
Thank You and Best Regards
Fernand LesmanaThere are 3 ways you can check which version of ALD you have installed on your machine.
1. Go to transaction SFP (Forms Builder) transaction and enter a form name. Select Layout and it should open Adobe LiveCycle Designer. From ALD select Help --> About section and it should give you version details.
2. Go to SE80 and open an Interactive form application. Select the InteractiveFormUI element and click edit. This will open the ALD. From ALD select Help --> About section and it should give you version details.
3. A more simpler way is just go to C:\Program Files\Adobe on your machine and there should be Designer folder there for e.g. Designer 7.1 / Designer 8.0 / Designer 8.1

Calling inactive version of ABAP object from Java
Hello,
When I call an ABAP object from Java Program which version of ABAP object is called inactive or active ?
Is there a mechanism to call the current inactive version or any other previous inactive /active versions ?
Regards,
TarunOnly the "active" version of ABAP code is active and runnable.
You cannot run inactive versions. Like you have to compile a .java file to a .class file o make it runnable in the JVM. -
Hi gurus,
As we know the latest version of SAP is ECC 7.0 and I just want to know the latest version for ABAP also.Please reply me immideately?HI
ABAP (Advanced Business Application Programming) is a programming language for developing applications for the SAP R/3 system, a widely-installed business application subsystem.<b> The latest version, ABAP Objects, is object-oriented programming.</b> SAP will run applications written using ABAP/4, the earlier ABAP version, as well as applications using ABAP Objects.
SAP's original business model for R/3 was developed before the idea of an object-oriented model was widespread. The transition to the object-oriented model reflects an increased customer demand for it. ABAP Objects uses a single inheritance model and full support for object features such as encapsulation, polymorphism, and persistence.

Hi friends
Which Microsoft Windows Versions does Abap install and run on?
Which Microsoft Windows Version does Abap <b>NOT</b> install and run on?
Can we install and run Abap on Windows Vista?Hi,
check service.sap.com/pam for all SAP components or
or the PAM menu item in service.sap.com/nw04 for netweaver.
In general one can say Win 2000 server or Win 2003 server for NW.
I think you can install in Windows Vista as well.

The differences between older and newer versions of SAP ABAP. The difference between R/3 and ECC ? Please pass this information to me. Thank you. Gowtham
[email protected] is my id.<i>I want to know the latest versions in SAP ABAP.</i>
ECC 6.0 which runs on NW2004s
<i>

There have been a lot of release of SAP R/3(ECC) over the years including.
R/3 1.0
R/3 2.0
R/3 3.X
R/3 4.0
R/3 4.6X

SAP started way back in 1972.
<i>The differences between older and newer versions of SAP ABAP.</i>
New Functionality, bug fixes, new development tools, nicer look and feel.
<i>The difference between R/3 and ECC ?</i>
Again, this is nothing more than a name change, with some added functionality and bug fixes.

Master data tables not available after installing trail version sap abap
Hi Experts,
After installing trail version of sap for practicing SAP ABAP..i am not able to access master data tables like MARA EKKO etc.
Please let me know how i can access these tables data .
Is there any alternate to access these tables?
Thanks and Regards,
SivaHi Siva,
Master data table and any other application table are not present in trail systems. Notice that solely purpose of those trials is to learn/practice basis stuff and ABAP programming.
If you need to practice ECC's modules like FI, SD, ... you need to have an access to IDES system. For this you need to be SAP partner or customer.
cheers

Which version of ABAP certification should i take up?
Hi,
I am new to SAP. I have taken up some training on SAP ABAP for non-SAP authorized training centers and planning to take up certification.
Could some one please explain to me the difference between C_TAW12_71 and C_TAW12_731.
Do you think any ABAP/4 Training taken and materials studied should suffice taking either of 71 or 731 certification?
Are there any specific study materials for each of these certifications?
Which certification do you think I should take up? and what are the benefits of each?
Thanks in Advance
Regards
IbrahimI can see that training.sap.com says
C_TAW12_71 has pass percentage of 64%
C_TAW12_731 has pass percentage of 60%.
Is the pass cutoff the same for all regions?
Also who do you think can give a correct answer for the region based pass cutoff, SAP Education or Pearson Vue?
Thanks

Hello Experts!
We have a weird problem, between the version in the PRD system and DES we lost a version, we coulnd't reach it in the version manager.
We noticed this when transporting the latest version in DES to PRD where we made a "very small" modification, after this the program wouln'd work right and we can't find the right version to rescue it. Does anyone know what could had happened here??, I think maybe the program in DES had a big modification and the order was liberated and never transported to PRD, but where's that order???
Thanks a lot!!
FrineeHi Frinee,
Please check at the table level:
Goto table E071 and seach with object name or program name. It will give all the transaport request for that object.
This will help in finding your lost/ previous version.
Hope this helps.
Pls assign points as way to say thanks -
Get reports content of earlier versions through ABAP code.
Hi All,
I want to get contents of report in an internal table for earlier versions.
Do we have any standard table/FM to get the report's content in our program?
To be more specific I want to know how much line of code added/modified in each versions.
Thanks.
Regards,
PKhi pranshu,
I find your requirement very different.
i have few doubts, when u mean contents u mean lines of code or the output records of the report.
if u mean lines of code modified u want to know, u have version management where u can find the changed lines of code,since the inception of the program.

NetWeaver ABAP Trial version 7.01 error TP_CANNOT_CONNECT_SYSTEM
Dear all,
I hope someone could help me with this. I have installed the 7.01 version of NetWeaver ABAP trial and encounter issues with the Transport system STMS. I want to install BI Content via SAINT in client 000 with user DDIC, but the import stops right away with the following error message:
Reason for error: TP_CANNOT_CONNECT_SYSTEM
Return Code: 0208
Error Message: Error in transport profile (param missing, unknown, ...)
I believe the reason for this is the RFC connection TMSADM@NSP:DOMAIN_NSP. When doing a connection test in SM59 it throws an error message:
Error when opening RFC connection. ERROR: hostname 'PWDF3101' unkonwn.
The issue should be the hostname entered by default as Target Host in this RFC. I do not recognise PWDF3101 either and I had nowhere entered this during installation process. In the former version of ABAP trial, the target host was 'localhost', the RFC connection test worked fine, and installing BI Content via SAINT was no problem.
I cannot manually change the target host name in this RFC, also generating the RFC in STMS does not have an effect. I get the successful message of RFC destinations being generated, but host name still remains wrong.
Any ideas how to get this RFC fixed? Or is there maybe something I have overlooked?
Thanks for your help
ClaasI have solved the issue - the NSP system was not configured correctly after installation. In STMS - Systems Overview, then mark the system NSP and choose Change from the SAP menu. Here you can amend the settings such as hostname and directory paths to the transport folders. When generating the RFC connections in STMS the hostname entered for the system gets looked up and applied to the RFC connection.

Comparison between ABAP command statements in different versions
Hi,
I'm looking for information on version wise difference in ABAP statements. Can someone provide help in this area.
I need a list of Commands along with there syntax in different versions of ABAP (ECC 5.0 and 4.7).
Is there any system table where this information is maintained?
Regards,
Gajendra BhattHi Gajendra ,
I doubt if SAP has some document which shows the history of all ABAP commands as to how they behaved in which version. The only option you have is go through the following notes and compile the info manually -
0000178452 Release upgrade from 4.0 to 4.5 for customers prog
0000452229 Release upgrade from 6.10 to 6.20 for customer pro
0000178725 Release upgrade from 4.5 to 4.6 for customer progr
0000689951 Release upgrade from 6.20 to 6.40 for customer pro
0000178482 Rel. upgrade from 3.0 to 4.0 for customer programs
0000857904 0003 0.460 Upgrade from Release 6.40 to 7.0: Customer program
0000367676 0061 0.450 Release upgrade from 4.6 to 6.10 for customer prog
0000099025 0004 0.340 Change from 4.0A/B to 4.5A for customer programs

ABAP proxy method change - from which version?
Hi,
for some new abap proxies when generating them inside
SPROXY methods like EXECUTE_ASYNCHRONOUS
are no longer available - it's fine I can use the message interface name
as the method and the call works fine
question:
but does any of you know from which version this works like that?
any SP level or patch level? (any OSS note mentioning it maybe)?
I just need the document (or link) that mentions - from this version
in abap proxies you need to use MI as the method's name
that'a all
thank you,
Regards,
Michal Krawczyk
http://mypigenie.com XI/PI FAQIt came with SAP_BASIS SP14, the same release were SAP introduced the proxy generation for PI 7.1 service interfaces with several operations. This was the reason for the change.
The PI systemis not relevant, but the SP level of the component SAP_BASIS of the application system.
I am sure if there is any documentation availble for this change. I read about this change in SDN forum
