Chapter 1: General Notes

0Overview
This guide describes the installation of the Legacy System Migration Workbench Version 1.6 (short: LSMW 1.6). LSMW 1.6 is an implementation tool which supports the data migration from non-SAP systems to SAP R/3. By installing LSMW 1.6, no objects are imported that are also part of the standard version delivered for your R/3 System. Installing LSMW 1.6 will therefore not affect the functions of the R/3 System in any way.

1Scope of Delivery
Besides the software (archive LSMW16.CAR), additional materials are available for download in SAPNet, e.g.: This installation guide in German (LSMW16_InstallationGuide_D.doc) and English (LSMW16_InstallationGuide_E.doc) A quick introduction to working with LSMW 1.6 in German (LSMW16_HowTo_D.doc) and English (LSMW16_HowTo_E.doc)

2Hotline
If you should encounter problems during installation or detect an error, please contact your SAP systems consultant or open a message in the R/3 Online Service System (component XX-LSM). If you do not have access to the R/3 Online Service System, you can also call our Hotline Service directly.

3Compatibility with Other Tools

LSMW 1.6 is technically completely independent of R/2 to R/3 migration tool. Both tools can therefore be used in a parallel way.

Chapter 2:

Installation of LSMW 1.6

4Overview
This chapter describes how to proceed when installing the LSMW 1.6.

5Prerequisites
Prerequisites for the installation of the LSMW 1.6 are: The SAP R/3 system has one of the following maintenance levels: 4.0A, 4.0B, 4.5A, 4.5B. The R/3 correction and transport system has been set up correctly and tested. The following background jobs are released (see: System Services Jobs Job overview [be sure to enter * in the Start after event field]): RDDIMPDP in client 000 RDDIMPDP_CLIENT_<client> in the remaining clients. Otherwise, start report RDDNEWPP as user DDIC in all clients.

6Installation: Part 1 Installation of the Software

Copy the archive LSMW16.CAR to an arbitrary directory <sourcedir>. Switch to directory /usr/sap/trans: cd /usr/sap/trans Unpack the archive named LSMW16.CAR: CAR xvf <sourcedir>/LSMW16.CAR Switch to directory /usr/sap/trans/bin: cd bin Import the transport request named MPFK900016: tp addtobuffer MPFK900016 <SID> tp import MPFK900016 <SID>

7Installation: Part 2 Distribution of Authorization Profiles

Create as user <sid>adm resp. <SID>OFR the file LSMW.CMD with the following contents: import client cascade = yes file = '/usr/sap/trans/data/R900016.MPF' including 'R3TRTABU'

including 'R3TRTDAT' Execute as user <sid>adm resp. <sid>ofr the following command: R3trans -u 1 LSMW.CMD Check the file trans.log in the current directory. The maximum admissable return code is (see end of trans.log) is 4.

8Installation: Part 3 Resetting the Buffers

Reset the buffer using the following command in the command field: /$SYNC

Imota t pr n
In release 4.0 the import may abort with the following error message: Constant ENTRYSIZE in twtrans.c is too short. In this case we suggest to update the R3trans with a patch. This patch is available on sapservX in directory ~ftp/general/R3server/patches/rel40B/... . This R3trans version has release date 10/08/1998 or younger. Please see note 120151 for details.

Imota t pr n
Message sapparam (1c): no profile used issued by the tp program can also be ignored (see also R/3 Note no. 26777).

Imota t pr n
If LSMW 1.0 is not installed in your system you will receive the following generation error: Program "/SAPDMC/SAP_LSMW_UPGRADE_DATA": Syntax error in line "000019" This error can be ignored.

Imota t pr n
If you had already used LSMW 1.5, there might occur syntax erros during the import which refer to generated programs. The names of these programs start with / 1CADMC/SAP_LSMW_... . These error messages can be ignored.

Chapter 3: What needs to be done after the installation of LSMW 1.6

9Overview
This chapter describes the steps that need to be executed after the installation of LSMW 1.6.

10Prerequisites
You have installed LSMW 1.6 as described above.

11Case 1: On the R/3 System no previous version LSMW was installed.

In this case you are done.

12Case 2: On the R/3 System LSMW 1.5 had already been installed before.
In this case the following steps have to be carried out after the installation of LSMW 1.6: 0Run the program /SAPDMC/SAP_LSMW_REPAIR_15 once. This program adjusts the settings of the file properties. 1Check for every object if the file properties are correct. 2Check for every object if the fieldmapping is correct. 3All generated programs (data read programs, data conversion programs) have to be generated again. If, for example, you change the file properties, these programs will be generated automatically. You can also generate the programs manually. To do this, you have to select the steps Generate data read program and Generate data conversion program in the Personal menu.

Case 3: On the R/3 System LSMW 1.0, but not LSMW 1.5 had already been installed before.
In this case the following steps have to be carried out after the installation of LSMW 1.6: 4Add one of the following profiles to your user master record: 5B_LSMW_SHOW 6B_LSMW_EXEC 8B_LSMW_ALL(All) 9If you wish, upgrade your LSMW data from LSMW 1.0. To do this, select the function Upgrade data from version 1.0 in the first screen of transaction LSMW, menu LSM Workbench. (Display) (Display and Execute)
