For a smaller set of users you can also use Trx SU10.

First of all you need a list of all users…

Then you can copy paste all values of BNAME into this report.

After defining this setting, a BP will be created automatically when you create an OU.

You can find the menu in customizing:

In the first item you can define wether you want to create a BP for each organisation unit.

If you have already units in you organisational plan, you can use the second item in the menu to synchronise them. You can do this one by one or in bulk.

When you execute the query you can see all the units in your plan when a status(red/green). For the ones with a red light there is no BP defined. If you select the record and use the “start repair” button, a new business partner will be created for that ou.

I used this scenario for a weekly sheduled job to refresh a custom table,containing all the email adresses from our employes.

In the first step, i populate an internal table with the type of the database table.

You can define this with transaction PPOMW.

If you want to find out to wich position a BP belongs to, you can query the table HRP1001.

I had some objects locked in XI when my computer crashed while i was working in the Integration directory.

U can unlock them by going to the following the directory. As you can see it's a different url for the directory and repository.

Directory:

Sound

When i first logged into SAP GUI is was really annoyed by the click-click-click sound. You can disable it by toggling the “audio - off” option in the visual design.  You can access this screen by choosing following menuitem.

Logon file

In your sap logon screen you can have a lot of servers defined. If you want to replicate them to another client you just have to copy the following .ini file.

Work processes are unix tasks that can be identified by using following unix command.

 ps -ef|grep dw

There are 5 type of processes and 4 types of status : 

Type's 

DIA   Dialog Interactive dialogs 
 BTC  Batch  Background tasks
 UPD  Update  Database updates (critical)
 UP2 UPDATE   Database updates(non-critical)
 ENQ  Enqueue  locking/releasing SAP objects
 SPO Spools   Data formatting and printer spools

Status
Running   executing a request
 Waiting  idle
 Hold a WP can only serve a single user. If there are many work processes on "hold" then the system performance will suffer
 Ended aborted

 

Transactions SM50  gives a process overview for a particular application* server. If you want view the processes of another server go to SM51 and choose the server u want.

work processes with sm50

And if u would like to see all the processes running accros your systems (inlcuding all application servers) use the SM66 Global Work process overview.

 

 * SAP uses the generic term application server to define a computer that receives connections from SAP clients, but the actual connections are managed by SAP dialog servers.

You should log into the target system.

If u want to transfer data from system 200 to system 100  you should login into system 100.

 

You can achieve this in transaction sm30 “Maintain table views”.

After u choose the table u wanted to synchronise you choose “Utilities” – “Comparison”, if u are in “edit mode” you have  “Utilities” – “Adjustments”,

 

enter r3 connection

After login into the source system you can see the data.

What’s important about this is the collor and the code. You can find more information in the legend.

legend comparison result

 

example

If you changed the data from a record in a mandant the record will be filled with a yellow background collor.  If it already exists in the logon/target system it will have a repectivily orange/green background collor. Infront of every record you can find more information on the data with the code value.

To synchronise the  date, just select the records and click the “adjust” button.

 

In the following screen you can navigate trough your data and delete/copy/update it.
