Feature’s of SAPGui.
The different features on the Initial SAPGui screen,

Maintain Favourites
Activate display of Technical names in menu tree
Activate Quick cut and Paste feature when required
Activate to display the Key id’s in drop down list wherever it is available.
All the following transactions explored using the Menu tree under Tools.

Transaction SM02

In this transaction you can send messages to users who are logged in and new users logging to
the client. This message is a client specific and can also be language specific or generic.

In the first 3 lines you maintain the text to be communicated, then server name is the chosen
from the list, in Client you maintain the number of the client for which the message to be sent
and the language can be maintained so that only to those users who are logged in that language
will receive the message.

By default the system has Expiry date and time of the current day and Deletion date.

This can be changed according to requirement.

Transaction SM01

This transaction is used for the control of transaction code in case the business requires that the
users who are authorized to carry the transactions are to be stopped temporarily.

You enter the transaction code as indicated in the picture FS00 and then press Enter key which
lists it in screen,

Clicking on the transaction and chose the button Lock/Unlock to toggle as required.

Transaction SM28

This transaction is to perform check the SAP system installation does not contain errors during
the process of installation, which if any needs to be attended. This is one time activity after the
installation only.

Transaction SM59

In this transaction the Remote Function Call (RFC) are maintained that is required for
communication between the SAP systems in the location and also to external systems and
programs. This is setup according to the requirements and type of connection.

ABAP connection is used for communicating between the SAP systems, TCP/IP connection is used
for the non-sap systems or IP Address.

In an ABAP connection the input values to be maintained –
Name of RFC
Description of RFC
Target host
System number
Gateway Host

Client number
User name
Password

On maintenance after save, the connection Test can be performed to check the connectivity is
properly established and the time taken.

Transaction SLICENSE
This is used to maintain license certificates for the system received from SAP. The license is
issued by SAP for the combination key SAPSID, Hardware key that is to be provided over the
http://service.sap.com/slicense

On receipt of the license file from SAP, save it on to your PC and execute this transaction and
select New Licenses and select Install license, this lead to a new window where you can browse
and chose the file sent by SAP and Open. Again this is a onetime operation after the SAP system
installation.

Transaction SCC4
This is a cross-client transaction; any changes made will affect all the clients in the SAP system.
This is a controlled transaction which is to be authorized userid only.

A client has various characteristics that are maintained considering for which purpose the client
is used.

In the picture above, the client is 150 means the transactions that are carried in this client is only
accessible for users assigned to this client. Logical system is a value which has dependency in
the transactions as it gets tagged with the transaction data, if any change is done then the
relevant data will be lost even though exists in the system. Hence making a change of the logical

system once defined is not to be done in Production system. Client role defines for which
purpose the client is used for, it can be

SAP reference client, Test client, Customizing client, Demo client or Production client. In
Development the client 150 is set as Customizing client, client 160 set as Test client and client
170 as test client.

We also control here whether in this client changes can be carried out by authorized consultant,
it can client dependent objects or client independent objects. Does the client is protected or not
protected for over writing. Permission on CATT and eCATT functionality is permitted or no.

The checkbox at the bottom can be set according to the requirements. To protect from changes
during client copy and performing a upgrade of software.

Transaction SCCL
This is used for the creation of new clients when required after the maintenance in transaction
SCC4. Login into the new client with user SAP* and PASS, here the depending upon the choice of
SAP profile different objects are copied into from the defined source clients. In a new client to be
used for testing, the SAP_ALL profile is used from client 000 and 001.

Firstly the with test run checked in the program is executed in frontend or in background to
verify the system has sufficient resources in terms of space, memory for completing a successful
client copy.

Transaction SCC3
This can be used to monitor the process of client copy that is running in background or check the
log of front end process.

Transaction SMGW
In this transaction we can monitor the status of the gateway service (sapgw00) on the SAP
system for all clients, it is a status at that point of time and is dynamic in nature.

Transaction SCC1
By this transaction we can import the change requests from one client to another within the
same SAP system. The change request containing client dependent objects that are modified in
one customizing client (150) be imported to testing client (160).

You enter the source client number from where it is to be imported and enter the transport
request, check include request Subtasks. Execute once with Test Run to verify there are no
errors and then uncheck the Test Run and execute to import either Start Immediately or
Schedule as Background Job.

Transaction SM50
To monitor the status of all the work processes in the SAP system, this is used. This lists all the
work process with their type, current status, and program, user id, action being performed at
that point of time. This is always dynamic and a good screen view is to have work processes free
(waiting) so that any call by a user can be taken up immediately without any delay in response
time.

In case a work process is stuck then we cancel the work process job selecting – Process>Cancel
without core. In case the work process is stopped after an error in one of the job it was
executing, then Restart it choosing – Process> Restart after error >Yes so that the work process
is available for the users.

Transaction SM51
In this transaction, we can monitor the sap system instance whether it is active and the various
types of work processes are configured on the system. The Server name is made of
Hostname+SAPSID+system number

By choosing the Release notes in the picture we can find the level of Kernel applied to the SAP
system. This Kernel lists all those errors that were fixed by SAP in this patch level.

Transaction SM04
By this transaction we can check how many users are logged into the system and in which client
and how many session each user is generated and in each session what transaction is being
executed. We also have the time when this session was started. The terminal used by the User,
type of connection and the amount of storage space utilized by the user depending upon the
transaction and selection options.

In this transaction we can pick particular user and end the session if required.

Transaction SM13
In this transaction we keep track of the status of the Update service is Active, in case it is not
active then we activate from the Update Administrator.

To monitor the list of updates that have failed we can choose the period using From date and
execute either F8 or click the execute button.

This lists the information like Client, User, Date, Time, Tcode and Status with the failure of
update level.

If any updates failed records are found then, we can determine reason for the failure and contact
the user and provide information. After fixing the reason for error, the record status can be reset
and Repeat Update can be executed for entry in database Else the record can also be deleted
from the listed and the user can post the same transaction for the same data set to get desired
update in the database.

Transaction SM12
By this transaction we monitor the master data or transaction data that is locked exclusively for
a particular SAP user id for performing modifications at that point of time. In such case, other
users who try to access the same data set will be stopped by the Enqueue service giving
information of the data being locked by the User id.

Here in initial screen you can run for a particular user and client or with * we run for all

In the picture it shows at that point of time in client 170, Users who had exclusively accessing
data set in SAP for which others cannot modify. The related table and other information is
provided also the time from when this is locked. If you double click a line then we get further
details like in below picture.

A decision can also be made in case under certain circumstances it makes to delete the lock for
the data set. Then we can do it using the icon Delete.

Transaction SM35
To monitor the batch sessions that are created by the users from different modules transactions.
In this transaction we can start the processing of a session, release a session that has stopped
with error and delete a session if required.

As shown in the screen filter on date, created by can be applied to reduce the list of sessions to
review. The sessions can be different stages of the processing like New, Incorrect, Processed, In
Process, In background, Being created and Locked. In case a session is ended with error, then
using the Flag icon the session can be released for re-processing. The session can be processed
in the front end mode where the data set of the session can be viewed how it is being processed
by the program in different screens depending upon the transaction code for which the session
was created.

Transaction SM21
In this transaction the SAP system log is displayed for the values inputted in the initial screen.
The values that can be maintained is the From Date

The list can be restricted for Problems Only, Problems and message and All messages. The
information in this list can further used to analyze the errors which are indicated with Red sign
under Priority. Also we get information of Tcode that was used by the user when the error got
generated.

Transaction ST22
This transaction lists the ABAP dumps generated in the system, we can restrict for a date, user
as required. This each record indicates the reason for the error, transaction code, variables that
caused the error. The types of error can be of various kinds for which action is to be taken to fix
this error from happening again after analysis. For this we refer also the SAP notes on
http://service.sap.com/notes with the search terms of the name of program, transaction or other
term

Transaction ST01
By this transaction, we can set the system trace on to analyse by checking the required
parameters and activate the trace ON for a period. The trace is normally kept off as this involves
the storage space, it is activated for a short period of analysis and then Trace is set to OFF. After
this using the analysis can be made on the data that is recorded during the Trace period.

Transaction ST05
This transaction is used to set performance trace for a user or all. With this on activation of the
trace the user transactions gets captured in to the trace file with information on the program
name, table name, records fetched against each SQL command the system performed with the
variables according to transactions and values.

The button Activate Trace sets the trace on for all users, Activate Trace with Filter in which
Username, Transaction code or Program name. After a set period the Trace needs to be
Deactivated, then We can Display Trace

The data captured in the trace is used for analysis and see duration taken for the execution of
each SQL, table accessed, program name, Action, number of records, return code.

Transaction ST11
Using this transaction we can view the trace files for all the work processes that happen at the
OS level with start of SAP and operational status of SAP work process.

On double clicking a file this gives the details of the

Transaction ST03N
In this we can monitor the workload on to the SAP system. Here we have different variants which
can be used for analyzing the data that is captured on a daily basis, then weeks and Month basis.

The right section of the screen provides different options that can be expanded to find the
various statistics that the system is captured by double clicking to the day/week/month.

We then will have information’s like Transaction profile which gives the transactions that
consume more time in execution, response compared to other transactions used in that period,
similarly more informations can be found under other nodes for analysis.

Transaction STAD
This is also for making analysis of workload for a defined values in the input screen like date,
time and amount of period, for a particular SAP USER of multiple’s, specific Transaction, client

Transaction ST02
By this transaction we monitor the various parameter setting and utilization factors in size or
percentage that is maintained for buffering.

There are different types of buffer in the system used for specific purpose as given below;

Table definition buffer – Gives the details of the percentage of tables buffered, quality of
database access for fetching records to the user requests. If the allocated space for the buffer is
small and not able to buffer the table definitions, then Swap happens where the table definitions
are removed from the buffer area and moved to temporary tablespaces like “PSAPTEMP”. The
buffered objects in buffer can also be viewed by choosing the button buffered objects. Any
changes to the values of the parameter can be done using the Instance Profile in transaction
RZ10 by maintaining under the “Extended maintenance”. The changing in values has to be done
in reference to the recommendations by SAP or any SAP Note only.

Similarly there are other objects – Field definition buffer, Short name tab buffer, Initial records
buffer, Program buffer, CUA buffer, Screen buffer, calendar buffer, OTR buffer and Export/Import
Shared memory buffer.

Each parameter buffering level if it is at >98% then we say the system properly tuned, and if
ranges below then we try to improve it by adjusting in a Production environment. Where almost
all the relevant objects are touched by users required for the business operation.

Transaction OS06
By this transaction we monitor the parameters relevant at the operating system level. In this we
notice the amount of the CPU utilization, Memory utilization, Hard disk utilization between
read/write, Network response on LAN,

Transaction OS01
This transaction is used to monitor the Presentation server, Database server and Application
server. The presentation server means the PC/laptop from where the user is logged in to SAP,
Database server is one where the SAP system database is running, for a SAP System we have
only one database server, Application server is the system which is running a central instance or
a dialog instance with dialog work processes that take the requests from the presentation server
and pass onto database server to get required data.

Even here we use this transaction to check the communication level and find packet loss by
pinging to any of the systems.

Transaction DBACOCKPIT
This is a central transaction combined together with other old transactions that existed in the
earlier versions of SAP. On opening DBACOCKPIT we get following screen;

The right pane of the screen contains nodes like Performance, Space, backup and recovery,
Configuration, Jobs, Alerts, Diagnostics and Wizards.

Again each major node contains other sub-nodes that take to new screen and gives more
information on the database different parameters.

The regular tasks that are done from this transaction is running Backup of database, checking
the freespace of each tablespace, monitor application connected to database, overview of
backup, etc…….

The actions to be performed to database can be done by choosing the parameter and switching
to change mode and maintain values as per requirement.

The database diag log can be viewed to check the different messages that are logged.

Transaction AL11
We can access the different file systems that have been defined and attached to a Parameter. In
this transaction we can view a file, find files under a directory,

Few important directory parameters are DIR_CT_RUN, DIR_DB2_HOME,DIR_DATA,
DIR_EXECUTABLE, DIR_TRANS. Using the directory parameters in the profile or in program we

can call a file from the OS level in SAPGui on the user PC/Laptop. This is also used where
customized directory is maintained for maintenance of the documents that can be attached to
SAP objects like Purchase order, Sales order, Quality inspection certificate, Engineering BOM,
drawing when the DMS and K-pro is activated in the system.

Transaction AL08
This is a global version of SM04, in which we can monitor the users logged to a SAP system from
multiple Application servers. The number of users logged using each application server will be
shown and the total kinds of connections like dialog and RFC .

Transaction SM66
This is a global process overview similar to process overview using transaction SM50. In this we
can monitor the work processes state in all the application server connected to the database
server.

Using the Select process Button we can choose the other options to view the work processes

In this transaction the work processes cannot be managed as in SM50, it is only a monitor view.

Transaction SU56
Using this transaction we can monitor the number of objects that are buffered from individual
user authorization roles and profiles. This is only a monitoring tool, no further action can be
taken from within this transaction.

We can use this to analyze for a particular user, or reset the buffer for the user

Transaction SSAA
This is a combination of different transaction that are to be executed by a Basis person on a daily
, weekly, monthly, on implementation and on upgrade of the system. On execution with Function

key F8 or Choosing the icon . Further each node indicating in Red colour indicates this
transaction is not executed today, on execution the Red turns to Green, indicating this action
was performed today. But it does not ensure the Basis consultant did a proper review of the
results and took any action. But this acts as a check list which a Production support member is to
perform as per the SAP standard guidelines for a proper functioning of SAP System. This one
transaction does almost cover the transaction that are discussed in this document separately.

Transaction SU01
This transaction is used to manage the SAP users; it can be used for Creating a User, Changing a
User, Displaying, Deleting, Locking, Unlocking and Set new password. As in Solaris Chemtech we
have implemented the Central User administration model, all System and clients cannot perform
all these mentioned function using SU01. The SAP System UED and Client 150 are defined as the
controller of all child systems and clients integrated in the model. Each SAP systems client 000,
001 and 066 are not included in this model.

The transaction further includes multiple tabs within in which other information is to be
maintained as required and some are mandatorily to be maintained. The General information
contains, Name of user in 2 parts – Last and First. We also can maintain more information’s like

Communication language, Department, Function, Telephone, Email id, Company address, Under
Default Tab - User type –“Dialog”, Valid from, Valid to, Default parameters like Logon language,
date format, Decimal Format, Time format, Output device, Time zone of the user, Under Roles –
multiple roles will be assigned along with the child receiving system.

On saving the user will be distributed to the respective child systems which were assigned when
assigning roles under the Tab - Roles.

The user in turn is transmitted to the child systems in the form of IDoc (Intermediate Document)
that can be monitored using the transaction WE02, the status of the IDoc.

Transaction SUIM
This is a transaction which has bunch of program reports that can be used to perform analysis at
different levels – User, Role, Profiles, Authorization, Authorization Objects and Transactions.

Under each node we have further nodes that can be executed with values to restrict the scope of
report and analyze report.

Transaction SU10
We use this transaction to perform a change, it be either addition or deletion of any common role
for few of the User id or change Company address, Parameter, Output device or even delete
Users from the system. Only restriction in this transaction we have is if something is
deleted/removed or added then twice the transaction is to be done both cannot be mixed. This
transaction can also be effective from System UED and Client 150 for addition or deletion of a
user. Only if the set of Users are to be Locked or Unlocked then it can be done in the respective
system and client using this transaction.

Transaction PFCG
To create a role with a set of authorization to execute a set of transactions, this transaction is
used. In the initial screen a name for the role to be created is maintained, we can create a Single
role or a composite role basically.

Further a role can also be created by copying an existing role as template, import from a file on
User PC, import from another system using RFC or make the role as child and is created by
deriving from another Role. When the role is created by deriving from another role, then such
roles are known as Derived Role. Mainly there are following kinds of roles;

• Single Role
• Derived Role
• Composite Role
A single role is included with a set of transactions; this can also be done by multiple ways like –
directly adding Transaction using the button Transaction or Selecting from the SAP Menu, from
other role, from area menu, Import from file or Derive from another role as in picture.

After including the transactions and saving, move the Authorizations Tab to maintain other
details for the transaction to be effective. As a transaction is made up of a authorization class,
authorization objects and activities that complete the values for anyone to execute a transaction.
If any of the values is missing or not maintained then the user to whom the role is assigned will
not able to transact and complete the transaction.
In the Authorizations tab we maintain authorization and generate profile for the role. In the
picture below notice the authorization class is at the end of the each node of the tree. These
further expand to contain authorization object that contains pre-defined elements that are
Domain/Data element defined in the data dictionary and assigned. Depending upon the
combination of values the role will permit for executing the transaction assigned to, after
generating the Role. a profile is created for the Role.
Within this transaction using the utilities from the menu bar we can switch to other transactions,
to generate the roles in mass, adjust text of the role with the Central user administration system
and compare the user assigned to roles.

Transaction PFUD
In this transaction as referred in the previous transaction, we perform User master comparison
for a set of Roles using ranges or list of roles. With the execution of this transaction the users
who are assigned with these roles will be compared and updated, thereby effectively included
into the buffer of the User authorization.

Transaction SU02
With this transaction we maintain the profiles manually for a profile, but this is rarely used unless
we need a profile which is not generated via a role.

We enter the profile value to be manually modified and continue, which brings new screen that
can be expanded by double clicking the row

Here in this above we maintain values to the elements and then activate the profile using the
Activate icon button.

Transaction SU03
In this we can maintain new authorization class that is to be used as Customer authorization
objects for which the authorization objects and elements also to be created and combined to the
class to form a authorization check for a z-transaction.

This requires knowledge of data elements, authorization objects and creating Z-transactions
which is not in the scope of this document.

Transaction RZ20
This is another transaction that gives a tool to perform the system administration that was done
using transaction SSAA. In this transaction we have a tree structure that performs a set of
transactions and also keeps a track of all the alerts that were captured during the operation of
the system. There are 2 state of status – Current and Open. In the current status it gives
information of the current readings from the system and in Open status it gives all the messages
and lists error messages in counts, these can be displayed by clicking over the alerts and
analysis is done if the alerts are repetitive in nature.

Transaction SE01/SE09/SE10
These transactions are for managing the transport requests (Change requests) that are created
in the process of any developments or changing the customizing structures and values. The
changes made in the development activity that involves the ABAP dictionary objects are known
as “Workbench requests” and others those involving the IMG as “Customizing requests”. With
this transaction we change the status of the change requests from “Modifiable” to “Released”.

A released change request can be further imported into other system as per the configuration in
Transport management System.

The change request is released by the person who has created from respective client.

Transaction STMS
To move a modified program or customizing setting from development to other system, the
transport management system is used. The transaction STMS gives the different sub tasks to
setup an effective Transport system. Primarily the development system is setup as Transport

Domain Controller (TDC). The TDC will contain the standard file structure under which the all the
files are stored and shared across to other system which are integrated to this TDC.

Here in the picture system UED is made as Domain Controller with which other systems form a
part of this Domain.

Further in the systems, a Transport route is configured as how the change requests can move
from one system to other.

As in picture, The changes made in UBD system will be consolidated in UBQ and then finally
delivered to UBP. Similarly, changes made in UED system will be consolidated in UEQ system and
finally delivered to UEP system. There is another component in transport system known as
“Transport Layer”, standard layer SAP is for all objects created by SAP and a new transport layer
“ZUDN” is created for the BI systems and ZUED is created for the ECC systems. Any change
request of the IMG components and customer develop ABAP objects will pass through
ZUED/ZUDN layer to quality system.

Change requests are imported into a system when it is in the buffer of a system where it is
required. This is controlled within the change request as to what is the target system when it was
created.

Using the icon “Truck” we move to next screen from where we can import a request,

On double clicking to a system where import is to be made, we move to next screen,

In which the list of change requests is listed, if the status (st) of the change request is “Request
waiting to be imported” indicated by is present,

Then according to the procedure of import, the change request is imported to the system as
shown in

A change request can be imported immediately by selecting option “Immediate” or at a defined
date and time or after a event occurring with certain parameters. Firstly the client where the
import is to be performed is entered, where the client dependent objects in the change requests
get to the right client. And Client independent objects will have effect across all clients even
though we import to client 200.

The Request can be imported in a Synchronous mode or Asynchronous mode. If the Synchronous
is used then the session is active till the completion of import and if the session ends or breaks
then the import fails. In Asynchronous mode the import after initial check in front end moves at
server level and the action is not effected even the session that started the import breaks/fails or
changed to other transaction.

The last tab Options, in the import screen contains certain check box which can be flagged to
perform special action in addition to the normal Import og change request.

Transaction RZ10
To maintain a SAP system certain profiles are created which control the starting of system,
setting the different parameters for running a SAP System properly as desired.

There are normally 3 kinds of profiles –

1. Default profile
2. Start profile
3. Instance profile

The Default profile contains those parameters which is applicable to all instances of the SAP
system. A Start profile exists for each instance that is created in the SAP Environment; it can be
Central services instance, ABAP Central services instance or a Central instance and instances for
Java applications. A Instance profile contains all those parameters that are relevant only to that
instance as described above.

Normally a typical profile contains, Administrative data, Basic maintenance and extended
maintenance views.

Initially a profile is created at the time of installation at the OS level, this needs to be imported to
the SAPGUI with the same name as in OS and import and save along with Activation. Each
change in a profile requires a restart of SAP system to get effective.

The list of SAP parameters can be viewed using program RSPARAM that lists all the values of the
parameters which are not substituted by the customer and are using the default values as set by
SAP for few of them.

Transaction RZ04
In this transaction we create the different operation modes distributed on an hourly basis of a
day.

Using the Operation mode from the menu bar, we can create multiple operation modes like Shift
A, Shift B shown in picture. Further for each operation mode we can assign the host, start profile
and instance profile. Next if required we can toggle between the number of work processes
defined for Dialog and Background processes by increase or decrease using the icon – or +
against that is maintained in the corresponding instance profile.

By this way, without requiring to stop and start the SAP system , we can distribute the allocation
of work processed between the dialog and background processes in certain period of time. This
feature can also be activated for a particular day only by assigning the Operation mode for a
particular day of the year or a range.

Transaction SM63
This transaction code is used for managing the operation modes to the 24 hours of a day.

This can be done by selecting a begin time and end time and then assign a particular operation
mode as required.

Transaction SMLG
In case where we have multiple instances for a SAP system through which the users can logon to
SAP, then we create multiple logon groups and assign them to a application server. The number
of users who connected with different logons can be viewed.

Find what is the response time for each logon groups

Transaction SP11
This transaction is for monitoring the number of Temse objects (Temporary Sequential Objects)
that were created for each job. These jobs can be print jobs, batch jobs, background jobs. The
information gives the number of objects created, storage occupied, existing in which all clients,
by user-wise.

On choosing “List objects” we get the list of Temse objects in the system as per the values
entered in the initial screen.

Choosing a line we can view the information this Temse contains by choosing the Attributes I,
Contents or Delete the Temse object as required.

Transaction SP12
This transaction code contains administration options for the Temse objects,

We can do memory allocation for the and the free space in the allocated space, list all objects as
in SP11 and run Consistency check. The consistency lists the inconsistency between the Temse
objects and the obkect list such as Spool requests or Job lists.

Transaction SPAD
Using this transaction, we can create elements that are required for printing, like – Font, paper
size, device types, output devices, spool servers, access method for output. We also can perform
administrative functions like deleting old spool requests, consistency check of the spool
database, Settings, Print request overview.

To a user only the Output device is of importance, the other elements of printing are the
responsible of the Printer administration.

In an output device the components are, name of printer, spool server it is serviced by, device
type that is compatible with the printer, access method for the job to follow when a print out is
triggered by an application.

Name of Output device is picked by User when giving a print command from an application
Spool server is the SAP Instance which will be used to process the print command from the
presentation server to Spool list.
Device type is the driver that is used for converting the instructions received from SAP to printer.
Access Method is the method with which the job is communicated to the printer

The standard list of printers that is compatible with SAP is with the supplier of the Printer. A

consolidated list is also available in the SAP Note. .

The various kinds of Access methods to be used is also available that can be used is different
scenario is given below (extraction from SAP help)

Transaction SP01
With this transaction we can monitor the number of spool requests and also how many spool
requests were outputted under the Output requests.

In the list we can also set filters to view that were successfully printed, ended with error,
processing or waiting. The print job can be reprinted with the original parameters or change and
print to another printer or page format.

Transaction SE93
This is the transaction to create a transaction for a Program with certain variant or without
variant. In this we define “new transaction code” and give a text to it. Then make a choice from
the possible start object. Depending upon the selection the next screen changes and provide
fields for entering the Program name, variant, screen number, access method.

Transaction SM36
In this we create jobs that can be one time run or a periodic running job according to the setting.

In the initial screen we need to give name for the job, spool list recipient if required

Next under Step we assign a program with a variant is assigned to the job and the user that is
used to execute the job

We can have a program from within the SAP, ABAP Program, External command available at OS
level or External program on another specific host.

Next we assign when the job is to be executed by choosing Start Condition,

The job can be started Immediate, on a specific date/time, After a Job, After event, At operation
mode or on a specific date for a factory calendar

The period can be made periodic action where in the same Job with the same parameter settings
will be executed on a Hour, Day, Weekly or Month basis.

Transaction SM37
In this transaction, we can monitor the status of the jobs that are created by a user and for
specific dates.

The list of job can be restricted using the Job status check box flags,

A job can be managed in this transaction like, cancel a Active job, change few parameters of a
job or delete a job from the schedule.

Transaction SPAM
This transaction is effective only in client “000” of a SAP system. Logging to client 000 we can
apply patches to the software that are installed in the system.

To install patches, firstly the patches that downloaded from http://www.service.sap.com/swdc for
the required software as per the maintenance optimizer ticket created in the solution manager
for a component and SAP system. This identifies the patches needed for the system with
reference to the released patches by SAP.

After download the patches firstly is to be unpacked using command SAPCAR –xvf <downloaded
patch file> to folder /usr/sap/trans/EPS/in

Next we upload the patches from the Application server using this transaction if they are existing
in Application server then use Application Server else if from the PC then use From Frontend.

After import the patches are available in the new support packages list that can be displayed,
here we decide on the import queue to be imported. The import queue depends on the patch we
are importing, if it has any dependency on other objects they should be first imported else to be
included in the queue.

Once the queue is created, then we Choose Import Queue, the import can be executed in
frontend mode or in background mode else schedule at a date and time in background.

The import process can be monitored by reviewing import log at SAPGui level; else at OS level in
folder /usr/sap/trans/tmp we can find which file is being processed.

Once the import queue passes the Phase “Test_Import” then the queue cannot be deleted and it
has to get processes successfully.

Lastly the queue import is completed by “Confirm” from the menu bar.

We can display the patch level of the installed SAP Components using Package Level.

Transaction SAINT
This is a similar to the transaction SPAM, with the difference being this will install a new Add-on
to the existing SAP system which is compatible with the product.

The process of the loading, queuing, importing and completing import is same as in SPAM.

After loading the process is started using Start button and continues as sequential steps which
are guided by the transaction itself with Continue button till completion of import successfully.
