Hi first thing is to run the transaction UCCHECK and execute the same we will get list of all the unicode errors. Save them in to excel file.

The file has info about unicode errors. So u need to go to the program and fix the error.

1st and important thing is go to attributes of program and see that checkbox Unicodechecks Active is checked. If not check the same and perform sysntax check it will show list of unicode errors in the program.

hi..

steps involved unicode conversion..

1) using uccheck transaction capture track of possible errors.

2) try to fix all syntax errors during upgradation.

3) replace all Ws upload/down load FM's with GUI upload /down load..

4) follow the step 3rd for download and upload function modules also.

5) after changing function modules just have a glance with SLIN check which is extended syntax check.

6) if u found any syntax errors through SLIN check try to fix it.. most times u face issues with performance errors which is not part of ur correction.

7)for errors like table/field is not defined byeither data or table statements check all includes and activate them..

8)check with old quality and production systems before going for client input ( perfect analysis is required).

9) check once by direct executing values may differ but check whether dump is thr r not..

i hope it ll help u alot..

if so reward me

happy week end..

SiNdHu...
