Hello to all,

I have a question. Where can I find the table of compatibilities for SAP's Unicode ERP? I explain am looking for the areas affected in case of a migration of the systems Unicode. That systems would see Applications affected, CRM, Cross, Portal etc? I realize it to document the effects of the above mentioned plan.

Thanks in advance

Hi,

I'm not sure what you are exactly looking for. Are you looking for dependencies that you should take care of when you convert your SAP ERP system to unicode?

If this is the question, then there the area I would check for detailed information is http://service.sap.com/unicode@sap

Off the top of my head, I would say your biggest challenge is all related to interfaces (I am not including all new development needs for new feature implementations):

- Data loads into and from the SAP ERP system. The formatting and the interface programs will need to be checked

- UI: SAPGUI will have to be changed to the new code page. Anything using SAPGUI will have to be checked like file uploads and printing. The Portal is already unicode so this should not be an issue.

- Printing: All printing/faxing/etc will have to be checked to ensure they can be used

- 3rd party software: All connected software will have to be validated for unicode compliance (back-up software all the way through to tax and EDI software)

- SAP apps: All the SAP apps support connectivity to unicode systems so there should be little to do here.

If you are converting from MDMP to unicode, you will also have to undo any workarounds you had for supporting the MDMP golden rules.

I hope this helps,

Mike.
