INTRODUCTION Of SAP
implementing (modules).
The history of the "R/3" is
3.0D Basis 300
3.0E Basis 300
3.0F Basis 300
3.1H Basis 310
3.1I Basis 310
4.0B Basis 400
4.5B Basis 450
4.6C Basis 460
4.71 Basis 6.20
4.72 Basis 6.20
5.00 Basis 6.40 (ECC 5.0 - Enterprise Core components)
6.00 Basis 7.00 (ECC 6.0) - actually in RampUp
All of those have increased business functionality and interfaces to other
systems (CRM, BW etc.)
What is mysap?
It's a term for all the systems that in a contract (e. g. a MySAP business
suite consist of ERP2005, CRM2005, SRM2005).
What is the systems configuration required to implement SAP.. i.e for
production,development and QAS servers the hard disk space, RAM,
Processor
This also depends on what your are implementing, how many users will
work on the system, how many records in what area are created etc.
We need a BIG database system and an even bigger application server for
~ 900 users and 12 languages.
What is ASAP?
It's an old term for an implementation strategy. Blueprint -> prototype ->
goLive (if you want to say it in one sentence).
How should I set priority for Printing say like user, teamlead, project
manager?
There's nothing like "priority" settings for spool processes. Just define more
(profile parameter rdisp/wp_no_spool) processes so people don't need to
wait.
Using Tc SGEN I have generated 74% job and later I have terminated the
job. I wish to start generating from where it stopped I have refreshed but to
no chance nothing was done. How should I further proceed so as to
complete the remaining job..
Start SGEN again and select the same you have selected before. It will
popup and ask if you want to start from scratch or generate the just the
remaining
How can I lock a transaction?
Use transaction SM01.
Look for the transaction you want and then check the Locked box.
Why should I lock a transaction?
Because some transactions are dangerous and a user without the proper
training may accidentally corrupt or destroy the system.

How can I see what users are currently logged on an R/3 system?
Use either transaction SM04 or AL08.
What is the fastest way to log off in SAPGUI?
Type /NEX at the command field.
Notice that this transaction exists without asking for confirmation. Save your
work before using it.

problems with your system. Using the entries in the developer traces
requires a sophisticated knowledge of the host systems in which your SAP
system is running and of the SAP system itself.
System Log:
You can use the log to pinpoint and correct errors occurring in your system
and its environment.
To work with system logs, choose Tools -> Administration from the R/3
initial screen. When the System Administration initial screen appears,
choose Monitoring -> System log. Alternatively, you can choose Test ->
System log from the ABAP/4 Development Workbench initial screen.

import.
Errors Faced:
TP or R3trans are old then Upgrading them is the only option.
TMSADM related error: change in configuration, RFC not working
Import Queue can't be read: generally because of the services like
SapService or SIDADM not able to read the trans directory.
4.For example, my sap system having patch number was 8.I want to apply
patch 9 and 10.Mistakenly I will apply the patch directly 11 without applying
9 and 10.How sap system will recognize this problem?
If you are applying Patching in SPAM/SAINT- it will not allow you to jump
from 8 to 10.
In case of applying Patching to Java using JSPM, it will allow you to jump to
Higher level without causing any issue.
If you are patching SAP GUI, it will allow to jump.
5.One user unable to execute one t-code, that is authorization object is
missing, How to add this authorization object to user?
SUM53 will show the exact Authorization object missing, SUIM will help you
finding the relevant role having that authorization object. SAP security team
can assign desired role to the user and he will be able to execute Tcode.
6.for example, consider a client 800.This client having 75 users. But 15
users account was locked. I want to unlock this 15 users account at a time.
How to do?
SU10->enter 15 username-unlock (Control F5)
7.what is the use of parameter tab, and personalization tab in user master
record? What is the use of account id in logon tab?
Parameter Tab and personalization used by Security team to provide extra
access.
8.how to change the number of work process at OS level? How to analyze
the status of work process at OS level?
Go to usr\sap\\sys\profile choose DVEGBMS profile(instance profile)and
change no. of work process.
you can check in SAPMMC, status will be shown under abap work process
9.For example, my sap system having 4 application sersvers. How many

11.what are the prerequisite for before applying support packs? Shall I apply
sap basis patch to all the system, like BW, ABAP, HR, etc.
Planning should be done, Support packs should be downloaded and
uncared and OCS queue should be uploaded.
Then you need downtime, Lock the users, Define the queue and change
setting according to the need. Better to test run. Then apply SAP Basis and
ABAP packages at first then others!!

Spool (S): at least 1 per R/3 System (more than 1 per dispatcher allowed)
Update (V): at least 1 per R/3 System (more than 1 per dispatcher
allowed)
Background (B): at least 2 per R/3 System (more than 1 per dispatcher
allowed)
Enqueue (E): exactly 1 per R/3 System (only 1 E work process is required
and allowed)
How do you start SAP R/3?
To start R/3, run the shell script startsap from the home directory of user
<sid>adm.
startsap starts the saposcol process, which is the statistics collector for
operating system resource data, if it is not yet running.
startsap calls the script startdb, which starts the database if it is not
already started.
startsap then starts the central instance.
The R/3 System administrator can start additional instances and
application servers. To start the instances independently of the database,
use the script startsap.
startsap has the following options:
startsap r3: Checks if the database is running; if it is, only the instance is
started
startsap db: Starts only the database
startsap all: Default entry; starts both the database and the R/3 instance
In what sequence are profile parameter read?
R/3 processes read the appropriate parameters from a C source in the R/3
kernel
The default profile /usr/sap/<SID>/SYS/profile/DEFAULT.PFL is read;
profile values already defined in the C source are replaced with the values in
the default profile
The instance profile
/usr/sap/<SID>/SYS/profile/<SID>_<instance>_<hostname> is read; profile
values already defined in the default profile or in the C source are replaced
with the values defined in the instance profile
This procedure ensures that system parameter values reflect the instance
profile and the values in the default profile and the C source.

server.
Check if any update records are open when the system is stopped, the
records are rolled back and set to status init. At startup, the records are
processed again.
The administrator must decide whether to interrupt the jobs or wait until
they are finished.
Give system users advance warning of the system shutdown. To create a
system message, you can use transaction SM02.
Before shutting down the system, use transaction SM04 to check whether
users are still logged on, and ask them to log off.
The R/3 System administrator and administrators of external systems
should also inform one another about data transfers between their
respective systems.

server, the diagnosis function will provide you with the name of the enqueue
server.
Each SAP System has exactly one application server that functions as an
enqueue server. This enqueue server maintains the lock table, which is
located in a shared memory segment. All of the work processes on the
enqueue server can access the lock table. All work processes on other
application servers delegate their enqueue requests to a special enqueue
work process on the enqueue server.
This procedure is configured automatically. The parameter line
"rdisp/enqname =<application server name>" in the default profile
DEFAULT.PFL indicates which application server is currently acting as the
enqueue server. When an application server detects that its name matches
the name of the enqueue server, it creates the lock table and all of its work
processes process enqueue requests inline. If an application server detects
that its name does not match the name of the enqueue server, it sends all
enqueue requests to the enqueue server.
Work processes of the type "enqueue" guarantee that incoming requests
are processed immediately. One enqueue process is usually sufficient. In
very large SAP Systems with many application servers, a second process
can be beneficial. However, it is not expedient to define more than two
enqueue processes. If the transaction SM50 -> [CPU] shows that only the
first enqueue process is being used, the bottleneck is due to something
else.
Q. Are the locks in the lock table also set at the database level? If not,
database functions could be used to process objects locked in the SAP
system.
A. Locks are not set on the database. The lock table is stored in the main
memory of the enqueue server.
Page 55 of 61
2016/12/05, 7*03 PM
Q.How can I find out who is currently holding the ungranted lock? In other
words, how can check the program after an ENQUEUE to determine which
use is currently holding the lock so that I can let him or her know?
A. When the ENQUEUE_... function module is returned, the name of the
lock owner is listed in SY-MSGV1.
Q. The Syslog often contains messages such as "Enqueue: total wait time
during locking: 2500 seconds". How should I analyze this problem? Or is
the entry not critical? (There are no records of terminations or timeouts.)

2016/12/05, 7*03 PM
A. The message is output for information purposes only but may indicate
parallel processing errors with ABAP programs. The specified wait time is
the time that has elapsed since startup due to the use of the WAIT
parameter when the enqueue function module was called.
The WAIT parameter enables a lock attempt to be repeated a number of
times, for example, so that the update task does not have to be cancelled
when a lock is set temporarily by other programs. The work process
remains busy between the lock attempts.
Q. User cannot connect to SAP
A. Check SAP logon settings, ping the host, check message server, check
dispatcher, etc
