R/3 Architecture:             SAP uses the industry specific 3-Layer Architecture and named it as R/3 Architecture.             It consists of three 3 Layers 1. Presentation Server/ Layer/ Tier 2. Application Server 3. Database Layer 1. Presentation Server:                         It is a client for all the SAP Solutions. It is also referred as SAPGUI. There are three 3 types of SAP GUI                         1. SAP GUI for windows     (On Windows OS)                         2. SAP GUI for JAVA         (On all OS where JAVA is supported)                         3. SAPGUI for HTML         (for web based) SAP provides various versions of GUI (4.6c, 620, 640, 700, 710) 2. Application Server:                         It is used to handle the user request and process them to the database. It has dispatcher to process and monitor the user request, work process to process and interpret the requests, Buffer areas to store the frequently acc

ABAP+Java-Based Instances ABAP+Java-based instances offer ABAP and Java-based processes. This results in the following definition of a central instance: The central instance of an ABAP+Java-based SAP system offers all the processes of an ABAP central instance and a Java central instance. Hint: Note the following: If you restart the central instance of an ABAP/+Java-based system, for example, the restart affects the following processes. Remember the definition that an instance is distinguished by the fact that all its processes can be started and stopped together. All Java server processes The Java dispatcher The Software Deployment Manager (SDM), if applicable The Internet Communication Manager (ICM) The gateway All ABAP work processes The ABAP dispatcher The ABAP Message Server The Java Central Services instance does not belong to the ABAP+Java central instance. It is started and stopped separately. 2008/62A © 2008 SAP AG. All rights reserved. 7 Unit 1: Fundamentals ADM

How to configure Logon groups in SAP ( SMLG ) Logon Groups: Logon groups (or work groups) are configured to dynamically distribute the load being processed by the dialog work processes. In many cases, SAP systems will have 2 or more sap abap instances. In these cases, logon groups can be configured to achieve dynamic distribution of dialog users on the ABAP instances. A report runs in SAP every 5minutes which determines the load across each server and updates in the memory area of the message server. Other criteria: Logon groups according to SAP application / module:   Separate logon groups can be setup for applications/modules such as HR, FI/CO, SD, MM etc. It means HR module users will be restricted to logon to identified instances, similarly other module users are allowed to login to their respective identified instances.  The advantages of this method, is only the programs of the respective module are loaded into the program buffer of the particul

sap system overview Within an SAP system, or at least the example used here, there are two types of programs, Reports and Dynpro’s. Reports, as the name would suggest, are programs which generate lists of data. They may involve a small amount of interactivity, but mainly they supply data to the front-end interfaces, the SAP GUI and so on. When a user runs a report, they typically get a selection screen. Once they enter their selection parameters and execute the report, they normally cannot intervene in the execution of the program. The program runs, and then displays the output. Dynpro’s are slightly different. They are dynamic programs, and allow the user to intervene in the execution of the program, by processing a series of screens, called 19 SAP SYSTEM OVERVIEW Dialogue screens. The user determines the flow of the program itself by choosing which buttons or fields to interact with on the screen. Their action then triggers different functions which have been coded within the

Chapter 1: SAP System Overview We will start out by covering the high-level architecture of an SAP system, including the technical architecture and platform independence. We will dig into the environment that our ABAP programs run in, which include the work processes and the basic structures of an ABAP program. Then we can focus on a running SAP system, discuss the business model overview, and begin looking at the ABAP workbench. SAP System Architecture First, the Technical Architecture of a typical SAP system will be discussed, before moving on to the Landscape Architecture, and a discussion of why the landscape should be broken into multiple systems. This diagram shows the 3-tier Client/Server architecture of a typical SAP system: 16 SAP SYSTEM OVERVIEW At the top is the Presentation server, which is any input device that can be used to control an SAP system (the diagram shows the SAP GUI, but this could equally be a web browser, a mobile device, and so on). The Presentation lay

Introduction This book has been written with SAP Super-User and Consultants in mind. Whether your current job title is functional consultant, system support analyst, business consultant, project manager for something entirely different, if you are responsible for all have an interest in creating ABAP programs, then this book is for you. Much of the book is written in the "How-To" style and will allow anybody to follow along and create ABAP programs from scratch. It is written in such a way that each chapter builds on the last so that you become familiar in lots of different aspects of SAP ABAP programming to enable you to then start creating your own programs and understand programs you will find in your own SAP system. The principles and guidelines apply across all SAP modules whether you're writing programs for HR, FI, SD or one of the many other modules within SAP. Over my years of working with SAP systems I have had the great pleasure of working with some top-not

Monitoring an Archiving Run There are various system administration tools available to monitor archiving runs: • Background processing tools – Job logs – Spool lists (if created) • System monitoring tools – Data Archiving Monitor in the CCMS monitor sets A log is created during an archiving run. If the application creates a specific log, this is used; otherwise, the standard log is used. The standard logs contains the number of archived data objects, the affected tables, the number of processed table entries, and the file sizes. The contents of the archiving can be stored to document level in application-specific logs. Note: The archiving logs are deleted by the regular cleaning of spool jobs. You must therefore consider the destination of these logs. You could, for example, store the logs on an external storage system. You can trace the process of an archiving run with the monitoring of the background work processes using the transaction Simple Job Selection (transaction code

Properties and Inheritance An ICF service is characterized by properties that you maintain in transaction SICF. By double-clicking a service, you access the Create/Change a Service screen on which you can configure the following settings: 50 ' 2008 SAP AG. All rights reserved. 2008 TADM10_2 Lesson: Internet Communication Framework Service Data  Aninheritance principle applies to the properties of an ICF service: In transaction SICF, you do not have to maintain properties for each individual service. You can do this simply for the higher service nodes (for example, /sap/bc/bsp). All lower-level services are then assigned these properties, provided that other values have not been entered explicitly for them. This inheritance process is not always required. You can use the Do Not Include Inherited Settings indicator to control whether this inheritance logic is interrupted. As of AS ABAP 7.00, you can choose Display Inheritance to show the properties for the current service that

ABAP ARCITECTURE environments communicate directly via the SAP Java Connector (JCo). AS ABAP Architecture In AS ABAP, the central instance is distinguished by the fact that the message server and the enqueue work process run there. All other instances of the system are usually called dialog instances. Alternatively, the instances are also named after the services provided. The services that an application server can provide are determined by the type of work processes it has. An application server can then take on several roles, for example, as a dialog server and simultaneously as an update server, if it provides several dialog work processes and at least one update work process. Note: An overview of the AS ABAP instances is available in SM51 (in SAP Easy Access under Tools → Administration → Monitor → System Monitoring→ Servers. You can use the transaction SM50 to display an overview of the work processes on the instance that you are logged on to; you can also display this over
