Wht abt the tcodes SPDD & SPAU

Hi Experts,
what abt the tcodes SPDD & SPAU. what is the importance & usage of that tcodes. can anybody explain me.
Thanks,
Satish.

Hi Satish
SPAU - for repository Objects Changes
SPDD -for Data Dictionary object changes
see the doc
SPAU and SPDD Sights:

http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/c6/068d380be34e6ce10000009b38f842/content.htm
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_46c/helpdata/EN/60/d6ba7bceda11d1953a0000e82de14a/content.htm
Please find below, answers to your questions:
1.What objects will come in SPAU and SPDD?
Ans: All the objects which are modified, after tansporting to the current system,
will be listed in SPAU and SPDD. SPDD contains the list of all modified Data Dictionary objects, like tables, dataelements, domains,view...etc. The rest of all the modified repository objects will be listed in SPAU.
What happens to the modifications done in the older version when we upgrade the version? (with Modification assistant and w/o)
Ans: After the initial upgrade happens, we have to do adjustments from SPAU/SPDD to maintain or reset the changes. That is, from the list of objects in SPAU/SPDD, you have to either carry forward the changes to the new version, by choosing the option ADOPT CHANGES (available on right click) or RESET TO ORIGINAL (available on right click).
Will they come in these transactions?
Ans: yes, they will be listed in these transactions, after the BASIS updgrade activity.
And what if we apply some patches(Notes) to the system? What is the impact of these patches to the SPAU transaction?
Ans: Patches will be supported by the version upgrade. In case of notes, we have to verify whether these notes are supported by the new version (you can go into http://www.service.sap.com/notes to verify this. Also, we have to analyze whther the code in the note is already incorporated in the new version. In this case you can ignore the chanes choosing RESET TO ORIGINAL option

SPDD & SPAU and EhP4 before or after ?

Hello all
We intend to go for upgrade from 4.6c to ECC6 with EHP4 ..We are planning to have SPDD & SPAU first then install EhP4 and then again SPDD & SPAU. But my question is in order to save time can we skip the initial SPDD & SPAU analysis n fixation part and directly go to EhP4 installation and then do the SPDD & SPAU analysis .?
Please help
Thanks & Regards
Nilesh

Hello Friend,
Rgrding the SPAU and SPDD...I would suggest that the way you have taken is correct...
Because you are upgrading ECC6 from 4.6c and i can expect there are lot of customization!
so first to SPAU & SPDD after ECC6 again after ENh4 (because enhancement package can bring some new feature alongside the ECC6)...
In that way it is easy to maintain the system and existing code...
good luck

How to handle delta SPDD & SPAU adjustments in the 2nd Upgrade QA & PRD

Dear all,
We have successfully upgraded our development box and we have made the SPDD changes into a single transport requests and also the SPAU requests in a different requests.
Our ABAP team has made the SPDD adjustments comparing the objects with production and QA.
Now when we upgrade our QA box we have included the SPDD & SPAU transports and now we found that we have about 8 extra objects that needs to be modified manually in SPDD phase? out of 79 objects 71 is adjusted my out SPDD transports and it has left out 8 more objects.
These 8 objects were never shown in SPDD phase of our development box.
Can you please suggest us, like how to handle these delta objects, so that we won't phase the same issue when we move to production. (offcourse we will do 2-3 dry runs before going to production)
I have read the below note, but it is for the older version (without shadow instance)
Note 124522 - Importing a modification adjustment in 2nd upgrade
Thanks &
Regards
Senthil

1.If you have choosen strategy resource-minimized, they are adjusted during downtime before the ABAP Dictionary is activated.
copy the cofiles and datafiles in the respective directories. List all the requests in umodauto.lst.
In PREPARE phase ADJUSTPRP the following screen appears
For automatically maintaining your modification in your ystem during the upgrade transport request from earlier upgrades are searched in the umoauto.lst in directory /usr/sap/trans/bin..
The file could not be read
There are several reason why this may be correct
eg: 'this is your first upgrade' or 'your system is not modified'.
Did you expect a list of transports being found?
->Confirm a list of transports to be included in the upgrade
Select Yes & OK
Click on Yes to include the transport
Click Yes to stop the ACT_700 phase and check the results of SPDD
2.You can add additional requests to umodauto.lst
3. Regarding why its how in QA.? Reasons could be
1modification could have been done only in QA
2)Are the DEV and QA are on the same kernel & SP level's

Upgrade to ECC 6.0 from 4.7 - When to execute SPDD/SPAU

Hi Expert,
I'm doing technical upgrade from 4.7 to ECC 6.0 and just discover notes that related to activating Add-ons (Business Switch) for DIMP. It seems like some of the switch need to be turn on manually. The question is, should this switch be turned on before SPDD/SPAU or I can run SPDD/SPAU then turn on the switch? I'm raising this question because I notice some of the collective search help that contain customized elementary search help become resetted and the customized search help is not included in the standard search help anymore. Thanks in advance for the answer.
Rgrds,
Abraham

Hi Abraham,
As said by Abdul you can do the SPDD during the phase ACT_700, The SAPup tool stops at this phase and prompts you for the confirmation.
In this phase you have to login to the shadow instance and in the 000 client with DDIC user and create a user as the copy of the DDIC.
use this newly created user for doing the SPDD in the shadow instance.
SPAU can be done once the upgrade is completed with in 14 days with out a developer key after 14 days you need a developer key.
when you carry out further upgrades you can include these 2 requests SPDD and SPAU during the upgrade itself. In this situation if you have any other delta adjustments then you have to do that delta in the shadow instace otherwise you dont need to work again on the SPDD and SPAU for the rest of the systems.
Hope this info is useful.
Thanks,
Venkat.

What is the Tcodes for Uploading of data using BDC & CATT

PP members:
I was going through the cutover activities , and what I understood is we transfer all the legacy system data into SAP before going live
The data upload follows certain steps (depends on the organizational design load strategies)
First we upload all the master data ( material master, BOM, W/C's & Routings)
Then the transaction data ( Ideally speaking, there should no open orders i.e. WIP as on the day of cutoff )
If the WIP (Work in Process) is unavoidable then the materials consumed shall be treated as materials of the previous stage and necessary adjustments shall be made after cutover day
At this point, I could not able to understand what does the author mean materials of the previous stage
Now comming to the uploading of data into SAP from legacy system, we use tools like LSMW, CATT & BDC
Is it a must to use only LSMW tool to upload master data or any other upload tools are fine
Lastly,. I am not sure about the Tcode of CATT & BDC
Summary of the questions:
1.What does the author mean material of previous stage, for WIP materials during cutover activities
2. Is it mandatory to use only LSMW tool for uploading for master data
3. What are the Tcodes for upload tools CATT & BDC ?
Thanks for your time
Suren R

Dear,
1.What does the author mean material of previous stage, for WIP materials during cutover activities - as i understood, what is the stage of material..like it must have gone through 2 work centers and other 2 is left. i.e. you need to create Production order with only 2 operation as other 2 is already over. - usually it is done in such a way that we will create Production order and confirm till 2 operations and WIp is calculated so thatb FI will tally the books in SAP and lagacy.
2. Is it mandatory to use only LSMW tool for uploading for master data - no you can use any tool as required and suits yr requirement
3. What are the Tcodes for upload tools CATT & BDC- BDC through a prog in SE38. CATT through - SCEM.

Layouts missing in the TCode : COOIS

Hi,
A user called us saying that the layout he was using to view production orders(TCode : COOIS) is not available in production system.The same layouts are existing in Pre-production system.
In order to track the issue,we tried with the TCode COHVOMPRINT in STAD to see who executed it from the last two days.But there is no clue.How do we trace the person who has deleted the existing layouts in the system.
Can anybody help me in this issue.
Regards,
Sudheer.

Hi,
If the pre-production system is in the same box try this.
Go to transaction COOIS execute the report and go to the icon where you select layout and click on Manage layout and it will open a new screen then try to import the layout by mentioning the layout .
If it is in a different box then select the layout in this screen and click on Layout > Transport and then you can move this to a different system.
Please let me know if this helps.

HOW TO KNOW THE TCODE FOR CREATING A NEW ENTRY IN A PARTICULAR TABLE

HI,
CAN YOU PLEASE LET ME KNOW THE PROCEDURE TO GET THE TCODE FOR CREATING A NEW ENTITY IN A TABLE .
EG: IS THERE ANY PROCEDURE TO KNOW THAT IF I CREATE A NEW ENTITY IN MM01 IT WILL BE STORED IN TABLE MARA.
THANKING YOU.

Hi Venkata,
If you want to know, for a given table, which transaction/program(s) will create a new record, there is no easy procedure, other than to refer to experts who deal with these programs.
It is possible to get a list of programs that refer to a table. SE11, select the table, select the 'where-used' icon, select programs, execute. You will be presented with a list of programs that read or write to that table. From that list you would have to determine which one(s) create records, using your ABAP skills. From those selected programs you would have to find which, if any, had a transaction assigned.
Many tables are updated by more than one program/transaction. Many other tables are not updated by ANY interactive transaction.
If you ever decide to go ahead with this research, make sure you publish it. You could probably make yourself a bit of money.

Edited by: Suhas Saha on Feb 20, 2012 12:58 PM

i have just started reading about all these-user exits ,customer exits etc.
i have read somewhere that:call to customer exits are triggered by function modules exits.
the structure of function modules are like this:
EXIT_RFEBBU10_001
MEANS
Keyword EXIT followed by program name fllowed by three digits.
and the call is like this:
call customer function 0001.
From above we can conclude that this customer exit must be used in program RFEBBU10.
GOTO SE38 andenter prog name RFEBBU10.check for above function module.
for the rest i stick to the same method for user exits and BADI that we can findthe corresponding TCODES
using Where used lists.
please Tell me if i m wrong!

How to find out the Tcode related to a Script

Hi All,
Our client is using one ZFORM (on Bill Of Lading),
How to find out, In which Tcode this particular Script was used?
I have checked the TNAPR table,
It's showing the Program Name Not Tcode.
Any hint...
Thanks,
Kalyan

Hi Nehal,
In the Tcode V/G9, Output type Z013, Z016 are there for my ZFORM,
and the corresponding Program name also given.
If I made any change to the SCRIPT, how to check, whether changes are made correctly. In the Script, if I go to Utilities-> There is no print preview, there is only print option.
I am working on the CITRIX, I can't take the print locally,
It's going to Client place..
Any advice,
Thanks,
