This is a continuation of the blog for New Installation scenario of S/4HANA.
Please refer other blogs as follows:
The documents are available at MobileDocLink and VideoPlayList.
The step by step procedure for Best Practices Content Activation on S/4HANA 1610 FPS00 has only two base languages EN & DE and Country= Germany The BP Activation process runtime is 5Hrs 20 min Please refer Admin Guide.
A new Solution Builder profile has been created with ALL scope items but in case you have finalized scope items you can select only the needed scope items. Depending on how many selected scope items, activation procedure will need less time.
TIP: If you have removed some scope items, in the rare situation that the removed scope item should have populated a table, you may get some error due to this scenario. In this situation please open OSS message.
You need a stable network connection to SAPGUI frontend so it is advisable to use Windows Terminal Server with latest SAPGUI installed.
This document will be useful to quickly setup system on some projects where, even though scope includes more languages, validation of functionality can be done with just the English/German language.
STEP1: S/4HANA 1610 FPS00 is installed and SPAM checked as per list below.
STEP2: All Notes are applied after complete installation of S/4HANA 1610 FPS00 is installed as per SAP Note 2346431 - SAP S/4HANA 1610: Release Information Note. TIP: Please go through the note for any updates after Nov 8, 2016.

After the transport is in buffer, select the transport and import, In the Options tab checkmark override check of component version
Note 2328546 shown has some documents attached as shown below. Download these documents for workarounds and review to use in case you face issues.
STEP7: Create users for content activation as per admin guide with details:
STEP8: SAPGUI SETTINGS: In case you are using SapGui version 7.50, you need to deactivate the SAP Fiori visual theme on the Blue Crystal Theme visual design option or select any other theme in the SAP GUI options. Currently MM01 ECATT fails with the default theme (will be fixed shortly). Once the Best practices activation is completed, you can activate the SAP Fiori visual theme back.
STEP9: Change SAP Profile parameters as below and restart SAP:
abap/heap_area_dia = 6442450944
sapgui/user_scripting = TRUE
STEP10: Import solutions from SAP Best Practices content. Enter tCode /N/SMB/BBI. Choose menu Solution -> Import -> Solution (XML) -> From reference content
Select Solution Builder Content ID BP_OP_ENTPR_S4HANA1611_DEV3.XML from below dated
28 October 2016 or later
After import is complete log will be displayed. Check logs and Click on icon Back
STEP11: Import Installation Data. Choose Menu Solution -> Import -> Installation Data -> From reference content and Select solution INST_FILES_DE_BP_S4BL_S4HANA1611_OP.ZIP
Click on column “Changed On” 2 times to change sort order and select second line as below
TIP: IMPORT WILL TAKE 3 MINUTES
You should get message below at the end of import
STEP12: Defining the scope of your solution. (1) Copy Solution BP_OP_ENTPR_S4HANA1611_DEV3 to (2) Z_BP_OP_ENTPR_S4HANA1611_DEV3
Please (3) copy with installation data and (4) Exit
TIP:COPY WILL TAKE 3 MINUTES
Define scope of your solution if needed by clicking on Change icon.
Click OK. Click on Favorite to make this solution as your favorite
STEP13: First please also go through note 2309549 - Identify completely installed languages for the report /SMB/REMOVE_NOTINST_LANG_IMG for Implications of reducing languages as below:
TIP: “The report deletes SAP Best Practice Content for all released languages that are not successfully installed in the system. After having deleted SAP Best Practice content for such languages with this report, you won't be able to add languages-dependent SAP Best Practice content again. Therefore make a conscious decision to run the report, understanding the implication that for languages not installed in the system, but released for the solution, all language dependent content of IMG activities would be deleted. Adding further languages later is currently not supported”
Enter tCode SE38, run report /SMB/REMOVE_NOTINST_LANG_IMG. You can run in simulation mode if needed and then in update mode.
TIP: DELETION WILL TAKE 6 MINUTES
STEP14: enter tCode SCC4 and ensure below values - Logical System - blank (activation will populate), Currency - blank, Client role - Test.
STEP 15 (OPTIONAL): Best Practices content activation for any solution will populate the client currency as USD by default. In case you want to have a different client currency, you should change the currency before activation starts.You should not change client currency once the first solution in the client is activated. The procedure is as follows:
Enter tCode /N/SMB/BBI -> Building Block Builder, Menu Installation Data -> Central Data
select DSC - /SMB99/STD_CURR_DSC_J01 Click on Maintain and change field I_MWAER to EUR
STEP 16: Adjust the variants for two object ID’s for Building Block J20_(XX)_OP as shown below.
Enter tCode for Solution Builder->Building Block Builder, (1) Choose Profile, (2) All Scope items, (3) locate J20(XX)_OP Building Block, (4) expand REQUEST FOR QUOTATION to locate Activity SIMG_CFMENUOLMEOMEA. (5) Solution Specific, (6) Installation Data, (7) Object ID V_T161_VA, (8) Maintain Variant, (9) Remove X from field from I_ABGEBOT. Save and exit from dialog.
Go back to (7) Object ID V_T161A, (8) Maintain Variant, (9) Select line with FO, (10) Click on Delete icon. Save and exit from dialog.
STEP 17: Review List of Activation Errors as below. Depending on scope items you have selected, you may get less errors. This is the summary of errors described later The list is provided as a quick search.
STEP18: Enter tCode /n/SMB/BBI and go to Solution Builder. Select the Solution and click on Implementation Assistant and Click on button Activate.
After 2 minutes you will be prompted with screen below.
You can select Skip this screen if you don’t want this screen from popping up everytime.
If a message pops up “To activate the project, the client settings need to be changed to eCATT and CATT allowed” this would come up if you didn’t follow the step 14 for SCC4, please choose Yes.
STEP 19 (OPTIONAL): TIP: How Much time is left to finish the activation ?
As the Best Practices content is activated, the scripts are running for few hours. Throughout the process you cannot access Implementation Assistant and even if you open it in another screen there is no way to tell how far you are in activation process. To see this information on how much time is left we will make use of spreadsheet, please download from link – “BPContentActivationRemainingTime.XLSX”.
Please follow these simple steps. Enter tCode SECATT, Logs icon. Starter – Blank, enter Start Date, Max No of Hits – blank
The logs shown from SECATT will match the records shown in spreadsheet. Select the tab that applies USV3 or DEV3 and delete the other one.
Column A – There are 427 records for full activation of DEV3 (436 for USV3). In case this is the first activation then log numbers will start from 1 on row 428 and Column A numbers will match. Activation starts with first log entry is with Title = /SMB99/SU3_O009_B32. But in case this is second or third client activation, replace the number in cell A428 (shaded green) with starting number of this activation for TITLE=/SMB99/SU3_O009_B32 in SECATT log.
Column C shows Duration of each activity and Column D shows the time remaining including time for current activity.
Column F – Cell F428 enter the time that you started the activation. The column F will be revised to show time that each activity will occur. This is good if you didn’t lose time with system waiting and also system processes at same speed as reference system. To get better estimate of times – refresh the SECATT log, find the current activity number and Title. From the logs you can find start time of current activity. Enter the start time of the current activity in cell F428 (shaded green) in time format 16:36. Spreadsheet column F will be revised. The advantage of this is you can find the time that next stop will be reached based on rows shaded in red.
Optional – What if the activity currently running is has long duration and is in progress – yes the duration of all activities is within 6 minutes except for four activities shown in blue on spreadsheet (For DEV3 Activity Nos 364-46min,362-33min,250-10min,52-11min). If the activation process is at these 2 activities the No of test cases are indicated together with Title in brackets and the duration of activity is shown in the same row. From the duration and number of test cases currently processed, v/s the Total number of Test cases shown in brackets at Title, proportionately calculate the remaining time for these 4 large activities.
Like Like for e.g. in above case Activity No 362 – /SMB99/IFLOTX_MAIN_LANG_O001 has 3610 test cases (from spreadsheet row) and this activity takes 33 min and completed so far 1392 test cases, so 1392/3610 x 33 = 13 minutes of this activity is done and 20 mins are remaining.
STEP20:
TIP: If you do SGEN in advance you won't get this error
No steps to be done here, just click on Activate below.
STEP 21:
In another session start transaction SECATT.
Select the 4 xml files from mobile link –
ECSC__SMB50_PK05_I001_E04_2.xml,
ECSC__SMB50_PK05_I002_E85_1.xml,
ECSC__SMB50_PK05_I003_E85_1.xml and
ECSC__SMB50_PK05_I004_E85_1.xml
Do not click Change button at PK05: Maintain Supply Area. Click on Activate to continue.
STEP22: COMPLETION OF ACTIVATION In about 20 minutes at the end of activation you should get message “Solution ZEXP_BP_OP_ENTPR_S4H activated”. CONGRATULATIONS !!!!
Please revert the parameter for abap/heap_area_dia and adjust SAPGUI scripting as well as remove SAP_ALL authorization from functional users if granted separately.
STEP23: POST ACTIVATION - EXECUTING MANUAL REWORK ACTIVITIES:
Please follow procedure as described in Admin Guide section 3.5 Executing manual rework activities. Also detailed steps in the guide in link.
Access tCode /n/SMB/BBI, select the solution you activated and set it to favorite. In the menu bar choose Solution -> Procedure -> Start a procedure. In the Execute a Solution Processing Procedure dialog box choose procedure Manual Rework Required and choose OK.
STEP 24: SYSTEM LANDSCAPE MANAGEMENT FOR QAS AND PROD:
Recommendation is not to do Content Activation of best practices in QAS and PROD. You have to move the transports as below in graphic.

Recommendation is not to do Content Activation of best practices in QAS and PROD. You have to move the transports as below in graphic.
- SAP Best Practices client is set-up with specific client copy profile
- SAP Best Practices customizing after initial activation
- Manual extension of business configuration using IMG
- Additional client 000 customizing for customer adaptation (Note 2272406)
