Recommendation

Activities

Proceed as follows:
(The activity list can be found in the implementation guidelines in the menu path EIS -> Tools)

  1. In conversion table TKCUM set how the new fields plan / actual indicator and the version depending on the values of the fields value type and data area should be filled. Assign a combination of plan / actual indicator and version uniquely to each combination of value type and data area (will be checked). Please also remember to maintain the tables in all clients in which the aspect has data.
  2. Save the aspect structure in the aspect editing. The aspect now has the structure of Release 4.0 in the saved version. If the aspect contains data, you are informed that the aspect has been entered for the conversion for the mass processing.
  3. Using the database utility of the ABAP dictionary for the conversion of the aspect table, schedule a job in the background processing.
    When converting the data, a copy of the original table is generated, the data in the original table is deleted, the original table in the ABAP dictionary is activated and the data reloaded from the copy. In reloading a conversion routine of EIS is run, that determines the values for the new fields independent of Customizing. The status of the conversion can be seen from the job overview and in detail from the object log of the database utilities. If errors should occur, you can restart the job after removing the cause.
  4. After successful database conversion go back to the aspect editing and select the pushbutton 'Release upgrade', in order to convert the formulas for the aspect (for the data entry and for reports). Therefore, the new fixed characteristics are inserted in all places in which the value type occurs and provided with a variable or a fixed value depending on what value type was set. The fixed value is determined from the conversion table.
  5. Next generate the aspect environment.
