+ No effort required for SAP R/3 upgrade + Immediate start of BI implementation - SAP R/3 upgrade still required by 2006
+ Add. functionality and benefits provided by SAP R/3 Enterprise + Longer mainstream maintenance for SAP R/3 Enterprise - Higher effort (upgrade and implementation in same time frame)
+ Add. functionality and benefits provided by SAP ECC + Lower TCO through integrated BI - Resizing of server landscape required

SAP AG 2003, Title of Presentation, Speaker Name / 13
To give you some ideas of possible deployment options with mySAP ERP, the following slides will show some of the most common examples. Each slide describes a specific customer situation (today) and the desired target. Please note that this presentation will not cover all the possible options! Target: A customer undertook a contract conversion to mySAP ERP and now wants to benefit from the Business Information Warehouse capabilities provided with mySAP ERP. Situation today: The customer operates SAP R/3 Release 4.6C. No other components are implemented at this point Possible Option A: The customer keeps SAP R/3 on release 4.6C and immediately starts the implementation of an new installed SAP BI system. The advantage of this option is that the customer can benefit from SAP BI as soon as possible without spending time on an upgrade at SAP R/3 level. However, since SAP R/3 4.6C is only under mainstream maintenance until 2006, it is clear that the customer will need to upgrade to SAP R/3 Enterprise or SAP ECC afterwards. Possible Option B: Customer performs upgrade to SAP R/3 Enterprise. In parallel or afterwards (depending on the available resources), it starts installation and implementation of SAP BI. The benefit of this option is that the customer is on a SAP R/3 release which offers long-term mainstream maintenance until 2009, while making the SAP BI capabilities available as soon as possible. From an effort perspective, this option requires more resources in a shorter timeframe than option 1. Possible Option C: Customer waits until SAP ECC becomes available (planned January 2005) and performs an upgrade to it then. After the upgrade, it starts implementation of integrated SAP BI. The disadvantage of this option is definitely the availability of SAP ECC. However, the advantage is that the customer can benefit from the integrated SAP BI, which offers the lowest TCO in these three options.

SAP AG 2003, Title of Presentation, Speaker Name / 14
Target: A customer undertook a contract conversion to mySAP ERP and now wants to benefit from the Business Information Warehouse capabilities provided with mySAP ERP. Situation today: Compared with the previous customer example, this customer operates SAP R/3 Release 4.0B where mainstream maintenance ended on December 31, 2003. Furthermore, this customer runs a SAP BI system on release 3.0B. Possible Option A: The customer performs an upgrade to SAP R/3 Enterprise, which is already available, and stays on the SAP BI system. With this the customer can benefit immediately from the new features brought by SAP R/3 Enterprise, utilizing the SAP BI capabilities. Possible Option B: The customer waits* until SAP ECC becomes available (planned January 2005) and performs upgrade to SAP ECC. In parallel or afterwards (depending on the available resources), the customer starts upgrade of SAP BI to the latest release. In contrast to option A, this would offer latest processes and functions available with mySAP ERP. Possible Option C: Customer waits until SAP ECC becomes available and performs an upgrade to it then. After the upgrade, it starts implementation of integrated SAP BI. The advantage compared with option B is that the customer can benefit from the integrated SAP BI, which offers him the lowest TCO in these three options. Please contact SAP Consulting for SAP BI migration.
* Maintenance Extension required if customer doesnt want to enter customer specific maintenance.

SAP AG 2003, Title of Presentation, Speaker Name / 15
Target: A customer undertook a contract conversion to mySAP ERP and now wants to benefit from the Self Services and the Business Information Warehouse capabilities provided with mySAP ERP. Situation today: The customer runs SAP R/3 Release 3.1I, in which case mainstream maintenance ended on December 31, 2003. Furthermore, this customer runs a SAP Internet Transaction Server 6.20 Possible Option A: One possible option is that the customer starts at least an upgrade to SAP R/3 Enterprise. Furthermore, he can keep the SAP ITS (or he upgrades it to the latest release) and implements SAP BI 3.5. Possible Option B: Another options this customer has, is to wait until SAP ECC becomes available to start an upgrade project to this component. After this step, the customer can utilize the integrated SAP ITS. Furthermore, this option shows, that a customer has still the option to implement and run a SAP BI beside SAP ECC. Possible Option C: Finally, another could example is that the customer does an upgrade to SAP ECC (if available) and utilizes the integrated SAP BI and SAP ITS. For sure, out of these options, the third option offers the lowest TCO and shows directly the benefit of SAP ECC from a TCO perspective.

So, if your R/3 System is upgraded from 4.7 Enterprise (Basis 6.20) to ECC 5.0 (mySAP ERP 2004) and it was used with several Codepages (MDMP) you must first convert the System to Unicode before you can use the BI (Netweaver 04) functionality in a MCOS configuration. See also Note 747036.

BI has some dependences to the ABAP and Basis Support Stack, due the fact that is part of the Netweaver 04/04s Stack.

If you not want to use the BI Function, lock the AWB and add a value for the field BWMANDT in Table RSADMINA. See also Note 122679 for Details.
SAP AG 2003, Title of Presentation, Speaker Name / 32
After the initial Setup of SAP NetWeaver 2004s there is only a an initial Configuration Profile available which does not met the BI/OLAP requirements. So the consulting of the following notes is a mandatory step before the use of the BI application. Note 192658 - Setting basis parameters for BW Systems Note 830576 - Parameter recommendations for Oracle 10g Note 702728 - Profile parameter for export/import buffer instances Note 656060 - OLAP: Cache main memory displacement not functioning Note 480710 - Profile parameters for table buffers Note 928044 - BI lock server With the table RSADMIN you can do additional DB settings.
32
If you activated the BI functionality on the ERP2004 not by purpose, and you want to rid of the my SAP BI system use the Function RSAR_LOGICAL_SYSTEM_DELETE and keep Destinations and Declarations. See Note 140276 for Details.

Typically, OLTP based systems (SAP ECC) and OLAP systems (SAP BI) have conflicting performance optimization goals
If OLTP and OLAP systems both use the same Oracle instance, a compromising set of parameter settings needs to be defined
Make sure that the Partition Option is installed when upgrading or Installing ERP2004/5 together with Oracle
37
It is also mandatory to create DB CBO statistics with brconnect only (do NOT use ANALYSE TABLE statistics!)
38
39
Other Databases
DB2/DB6 uses similar techniques like Oracle. Therefore you might also a compromising set of parameter settings needs to be defined. MaxDB in the Version 7.5 and 7.6 is delivered as the OLTP Version only. The Settings for OLAP Systems, like BI are also valid for OLTP Systems like ECC. For the usage of MS SQL together with SAP Applications there are no special settings either for OLTP or OLAP. The Database handles both types the same way.
40
only the Fix for ECC 5.0/6.0 from the Note 663240 is necessary. There is no influence on the BI components. These components will be activated separately in a later step. If there is also a J2EE Engine available please make sure that this is connected to the BI Client for the usage of BI_MMR and BI_UDI. The EP is connected to this Client also. If you want to use the J2EE Engine also for the ECC Component you need an additional J2EE Engine.
