SAP Basis Certification


SAP BC Certification - Is It Worth Getting Certified


Do you think it is worth getting certified? How many test are required for the basis certification? Is it required to take classes or can I study on my own?

Now days there's so many choices. Start at http://www.sap.com/services/education/index.epx, pick your country and select Certification Program.

If you've got enough years of experience I don't think certification would make much difference to a full time job.

But if you're a contractor, I could see it highly worthwhile. Upgrades / Migrations have to have certified Basis Consultant.


Do you require training to attend certification?


I have done certification in the month of FEB 2003. I took training also.


If you ask me the question - Do you require training to attend certification?

I will ask you following questions-


1. Do you have time to attend the course in the first place?

2. Do you want to inform outside world that you want to prove yourself? Coz, World listen you when you are certified. No matter how bad your skills are.

3. Do not want to take chances?

4. Invest money? Remember I am using word invest money? Investment is always linked with expectations of future higher returns?

5. Can keep job and other onhand tasks away for the training time? In otherwords have difficulty to free yourself and so the best choice is making yourself free by attending course would help?

6. Want to know in and out of SAP? Coz course would try to give you the behind picture in depth (practically may not be possible but may be true to some extent)

7. Conceptually weak in many of the aspects of basis?

If your answer is "YES" then better take course before writing exam?

Esp. in IT, you learn faster when someone guide you rather than you do self study. Of course with Basis certification you need both as time is limited. Also you may have to fight for best tutor (remember).

There are pros and cons. You are the better judge. If you can give more valid reasons for the choice you made. Go ahead. Sure you will win. Most important is committment.

Brief Description About SAP Basis Implementation

There is no standard Implementation process, it purely depends on which methodology person have adopted for implementation. I will give you broad view of implementation project... I am just starting from sizing of the servers ...


1. Identify the no of users and type of users


2. Design the technical system landscape of servers


3. Do the sizing based on users, documents created.


4. Convert your sizing requirement in to Hardware requiremnet


5. Consider the backup procedure also


6. Then start with the setup of development landscape


7. Define client strategy, transport strategy, User management.


8. Fix the support package levels.


9. Tune the system for performence


10. set up the QA systems


11. Define client copy strategy


12. Setup the PROD systems


13. Apply for Pre Golive report


14. Monitor system of db load


15. Apply post golive report

Monitor and Administrate 4 SAP Systems

If there are 4 systems installed SAP, how should I connect all of them in one network so that I can administrate the 4 systems with one among them as main server.

This should help you:

After installing an R/3 System, you can use transaction RZ20 to monitor the system. To monitor all systems of your system landscape centrally from one system, first customize the alert monitor by choosing Tools > CCMS > Configuration > Alert monitor or calling transaction RZ21.

Then, to specify the remote systems by System ID and RFC destination (which must have been created beforehand), choose Technical infrastructure > Create remote monitoring entry.

Next, to change your monitor definitions (you can only change your own monitors), choose Tools > CCMS > Control/Monitoring > Alert monitor or call transaction RZ20.

Activate the maintenance function by choosing Extras > Activate maintenance function.
Then, double click on the monitor and choose Monitoring change.
Parameter R3system defines which systems can be monitored by an alert monitor. Change parameter R3system from (only the current R/3 System can be monitored) to (all R/3 Systems defined in RZ21 can be monitored). Save the changes.

It will help you monitor & use spome other activities centrally.

Tcodes used for Daily System Monitoring

After running daily system monitoring transaction, what should we check for:

In st22 look for the core dumps if any and report to the respective consultants and try to know why it happened.

In sm21 try to check for errors.

In sp01 try to see if any spool jobs have failed.

In st02 look if any swaps are happening, swaps are not good for performance.

In st04 look for Database alert logs and Performance.

In st03 look for ratio hits.

In sm59 look for connectivety tesing if there are other systems also connected to your SAP R/3 system

In db13 look if the jobs have run successfully.

In sm37 look for any cancelled scheduled job and take action appropriately.

In sm12 look for any pending locks from the previous days.

In sm13 look for any hanged updates, or updates pending for long or updates in PRIV mode.

Basis Administration Questions Answers



What is th difference between Sap lock and database lock?


A "SAP lock" is named "enqueue lock", the enqueue is on a much higher level, e. g. a complete sales document is locked there whereas in the datbase usually only row locks exist. Since SAP runs on more database than Oracle (thanx god) one needed to have a mechanism, that is database independent and on a higher level.


What is the diff between clients 000 and 001?

Client 000 is the SAP source client, client 001 exists only on certain installations (e. g. solution Manager).

I would like to know is there anyway to transport roles from Production to Development or Sandbox.

Goto PFCG and enter the role which you want to transfer to other system. goto utilities->Mass download it will ask the path where to download/save that role on local desktop give the location and save it. Next logon to the system where you want that particular role.

PFCG-> Role -> upload.

Give the path where the role is saved. it accepts and generates successfully.


What is the need of having Development system?

To develop and custamize SAP to companies requirement. say if you dont have DEV, after go-live(started using SAP (PRD}) if you want to do some changes to application, you cannot do changes directly to PRD server, which may cause problem the PRD server live data. so you do the required changes on DEV first and test them on QAS, if it works fine then transport the same to PRD.


Difference between Application server and Central Instance?


AS: Is just a dialog instance.

CI: Is Dialog instance + Database Instance.


What is Transport domain and Domain controller?

TD: is the collection of transport controller, trans directory and all other systems in the group.

TC: A system which will have trans directory, and in which the total landscape is designed and maintained. in stms you can see all these.


What are SNOTES ? How to apply them in SAP ?

The name of the transaction is SNOTE. A "note" in general is a hint, documentation, error/bug description and may contain code corrections, that are applied with the transaction SNOTE.


What is OSS ?


OSS is the old name of the nowadays "sapnet" which contains everything you need to run SAP a program, patches, installation/upgrade documentation etc.



What are different modules used like EP, XI, CRM ,BW, etc?


Those are not different modules but different products.

EP = Enterprise Portal

XI = Exchange Infrastructure

CRM = Customer Relationship Management

BW = Business Warehouse (that is the old term), it's now call BI (Business Intelligence)


What is the correct use of SPAM, SAINT, SPAD and SPDD transactions. When should we use each?

SPAM is for installing support packages, SAINT is used to install new addons. SPAD is for creating printers (I assume you meant SPAU) and SPDD is for adjusting modification to dictionary objects.


Is it possible to update Support Release packages from OS level?


No - you can import them but the full process will require additional steps the tools "tp" and "R3trans" are not aware of. The way is to use SPAM - but SPAM has the possibility to schedule those imports in the background.


After doing any Support Package update in SPAM, are there any further steps to carry out for this update to take effect?


No, they are active immediately.

SAP Administration Questions Answers



What is the use of profile paramater ztta/roll_area?


The value specifies the size of the roll area in bytes. The roll area is one of several memory areas, which satisfies the user requests of user programs. For technical reasons, however, the first 250 KB or so of a user context are always stored in the roll area, further data

- up to the roll area limit ztta/roll_first,

- in the extended memory, up to the limit ztta/roll_extension or if extended memory is exhausted, then

- again in the roll area, until the roll area is full, then

- in the local process area, up to the limit abap/heap_area_dia or abap/heap_area_total or until the address space or the swap space is exhausted.

Followed by termination with errors like STORAGE_PARAMETERS_WRONG_SET an error code, that points to memory bottleneck Minimum data transfer with context change; however, the increase helps to avoid problems (address space, swap space, operating system paging).


What is R/3? and what is basis version?


SAP Basis:

- Provides the runtime environment for all SAP applications

- Optimally embeds the application in the system environment

- Defines a stable architecture framework for system enhancements

- Contains the tools for administering the entire system

- Allows the distribution of resources and system components

- Provides interfaces for decentralized system parts and external products.

An R/3 instance is a group of R/3 services that are started and stopped as a unit (by an R/3 dispatcher) and have a common instance profile. The name of an R/3 instance is composed of letters standing for the relevant services, and an instance number which is unique for each computer. The services may be D, V, E, B, M, G, or S, which respectively stand for dialogue, update, enqueue, background, message, gateway, and spool services.


I would like to know the version or name of SAP that is implemented in real time?

This is a very generic question and really depends on what you are 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.

Interview Questions for SAP Basis

What is private mode? When does user switch to user mode?

Private mode is a mode where the heap data is getting exclusively allocated by the user and is no more shared across the system. This happens when your extended memory is exhausted.

What is osp$ mean? What if user is given with this authorisation?

OPS$ is the mechanism the adm users uses to connect to the database .

Why do you use DDIC user not SAP* for Support Packs and SPam?
Do _NOT_ use neither DDIC nor SAP* for applying support packages. Copy DDIC to a separate user and use that user to apply them.
Can you kill a Job?
Yes - SM37 - select - kill

If you have a long running Job, how do you analyse?
Use transaction SE30.

How to uncar car/sar files in a single shot?
on Unix:
$ for i in *.SAR; do SAPCAR -xvf $i; done

When we should use Transactional RFC ?
A "transactional RFC" means, that either both parties agree that the data was correctly transfered - or not. There is no "half data transfer".
What is the use of Trusted system. I know that there is no need of UID and PWD to communicate with partner system. In what situation it is good to go for Trusted system ?

E. g. if you have an R/3 system and a BW system and don't want to maintain passwords. Same goes for CRM and a lot of other systems/applications.

Let me know if my understanding below is correct:

1) By default the RFC destination is synchronous

2) Asynchronous RFC is used incase if the system initiated the RFC call no need to wait for the response before it proceeds to something else.
Yes - that's right.

But keep in mind, that it's not only a technical issue whether to switch to asynchronous. The application must also be able to handle that correctly.

Which table contains the details related to Q defined in SPAM? Is there a way to revert back the Q defined? If yes, How?

There is a "delete" button when you define the queue. If you already started the import it's no more possible since the system will become inconsistent.

What is a developer key? and how to generate a developer key?

The developer key is a combination of you installation number, your license key (that you get from http://service.sap.com/licensekey) and the user name. You need this for each person that will make changes (Dictionary or programs) in the system.
What is XI3.0 ? EXPLAIN XI = Exchange Infrastructure - Part of Netweaver 2004.
SAP Exchange Infrastructure (SAP XI) is SAP's enterprise application integration (EAI) software, a component of the NetWeaver product group used to facilitate the exchange of information among a company's internal software and systems and those of external parties. Like other NetWeaver components, SAP XI is compatible with software products of other
companies.

SAP calls XI an integration broker because it mediates between entities with varying requirements in terms of connectivity, format, and protocols. According to SAP, XI reduces integration costs by providing a common repository for interfaces. The central component of SAP XI is the SAP Integration Server, which facilitates interaction between diverse operating systems and applications across internal and external networked computer systems.

How to see when were the optimizer stats last time run? We are using win2k, oracle 9, sapr346c.
Assumed DB=Oracle
Select any table lets take MARA here but you should do the same for MSEG and few others to see whether the dates match or not.Run the following command on the command prompt:-

select last_analyzed from dba_tables where table_name like '%MARA%';
This gives you a straight answer .Else you can always fish around in DB14 for seeing when the optimzer stats were updated.

SAP Basis FAQ




Automatic CTS



Even though SAP does not recommend automatic imports, it is the most practical way of moving transports from a development system to a QA environment or to a special development system (although I wouldn't recommend auto imports to a production system for obvious reasons).

There are various methods for doing this. The most effective and simple method is using an OS script (shell/perl etc.) scheduled using cron for user sidadm. There are a couple of steps you need to take before setting up automatic imports.

1.Your entire project team should agree upon the overall strategy, frequency of imports etc.

2.Resolve any issues with transport approvals (many shops don't care about traffic between DEV and QA)


3.
Who is responsible for watching for errors and corrective actions (an email to the developer works in this case)

Configuring outbound SAP to Internet mail Gateway (Upto R/3 3.1I)


SAP can be configured to send and receive emails from different sources. This section explains how to integrate SAPOffice with an external email system.

This is in no way supplementing the online documentation available on the online documentation CD supplied by SAP but simplyfies the process to the bare Internet email must be configured and running prior to this. Email from SAP is forwarded to the users external email client such as Eudora, Outlook etc.


You can configure inbound and outbound forwarding. Outbound flow forwards a SAP message (eg:update termination) via UNIX sendmail to the intended recepient. Inbound accepts a message from sendmail and places it in the users SAPOffice inbox. Many SAP shops prefer to configure outbound only.


Configuring outbound forwarding

FTP from ABAP


There are 2 ways of executing FTP from an ABAP (online or batch mode),




Initiated from the operating system. A script is available in the utility repository that explains how to do this very easily.


Initiated from the ABAP itself An example is given below.



1) Create a logical OS command 'zftp' using transaction SM69. Make sure that you enable 'comand line parameter allowed' checkbox

2) Create a shell script called 'zftp' with the following lines
RMTHOST=`echo $2 | tr '[A-Z]' '[a-z]'`
ftp -v $RMTHOST <<> /out/zftp.$$ 2>&1
lcd /out
put $1
bye
EOF
3)Use the SXPG_COMMAND_EXECUTE function module to call this script (zftp) with the filename you want to transfer as the parameter.

Eg:
call function 'SXPG_COMMAND_EXECUTE'
exporting
commandname =
tables
exec_protocol =
exceptions
no_permission = 1
command_not_found = 2
parameters_too_long = 3
...


Enable web based online documentaion (R/3 4.0 or above)



1)Install Netscape webserver or use an existing web server (requires administrators privelege)

2)
Create a directory called SAPDOCS4 under your web server document root.


3)
Mount the CDROM containing online documentation on your PC or your UNIX server.


4)
Recursively copy all files under /cdrom/docs/ to the SAPDOC4 directory under the web server root.


5)
Create the following entries in your /usr/sap/SID/SYS/profile/DEFAULT.PFL

eu/iwb/installed_languages = EN


eu/iwb/help_type=2


eu/iwb/server_win32=webserver.domain.com


eu/iwb/path_win32=saphelp/helpdata



6)
Restart your SAP system



How to access an external database from ABAP via DBLINK (ORACLE)



1)
Using transaction SE11, create a table (ZTABLE) with the same fields as the table in the external database, make sure that the type and lengths of the fields are identical.

2)
Using transaction SE11, create a view (ZTABLE_VIEW, projection view) using BASIS table ZTABLE


3)
Using SVRMGRL>

create dblink REMOTE_DB as connect to remote_user identified by password; (database link created)


drop table ZTABLE; (table dropped)


create synonym ZTABLE for ZTABLE@REMOTE_DB; (synonym created)


4)
Using transaction SE16 , type in ZTABLE_VIEW and hit RETURN


5)
Enter value in key fields and hit execute. (displays rows from the remote table)




Tips and Tricks

1)To see the complete text of an error/warning message on the SAPGUI status bar, right click on the message and drag left.

2)To prevent your spool requests getting deleted from the BASIS cleanup jobs, you need to uncheck the Delete after print checkbox in the print control screen, execute transaction SP01, find your spool#, click on Attributes and change the Delete After date


3)Short cuts using the OK-code box.


%sc                       
 Search in page

The steps to change the Title of any SAP transaction code are as follows:

First, goto tcode SE63

On the top left Menu of the screen - Click Translation - Short texts - Transactions

For example, assuming you want to change the title of the tcode FB01 from Post Document to Post Document for G/L. On the first screen, fill in the following information:

Transaction code - FB01

Source Language - English
Target Languate - English

To change the Title, click the Edit button

On the second line, type in the Title (For e.g. Post Document for G/L) you want for the transaction code

Click the Save button
