Hello,

You can use the transaction UCCHECK and input your program names.

This trnsaction will tell you what and where the change is required and then you can make the appropriate change.

The changes are to remove the obsolete statements from your ABAP Code and add the new piece of code that is unicode compatible.

eg: Your old system may have a call to FM : WS_DOWNLOAD.

Now in th econversion, your task would be to replace it with GUI_DOWNLOAD and change the parameters accordingly and test.

Please reward if useful.

regards,

Hi,

To change the ABAP code is the work of the ABAPer.

Your project wud be a technical upgrade to ECC6.0 or so..

I beleive you should have exposure to all types of projects.

This would be a small project may be 3 - 4 months. Later you can shift to some other project.

I am an ABAPer as well and working on Upgrade to ECC.

Working on Upgrade is not going to change your main stream of being a ABAPer

regards,

sachin

Hi,

Unicode conversion is converting the existing code into unicode compatible code.

If the business requires, you may have to develop new objects as well but that will not be conversion in that case.

Please close the thread with appropriate points.
