...jetzt hab ich mich selbst verwirrt: ich hab vorhin "Datum des letztes Zugriffs " als Lese-Zugriff interpretiert? ist das so?

Was ich will, ist: Dateien, die in den letzten N Tagen "Erstellt oder Geändert" wurden. bzw. die Ausschließen, für die das nicht der Fall ist.

..ich merke grade, dass ich in meiner #Backup-Strategie mit #Robocopy (unter #Windows) etwas anderes mache, als ich dachte:

Ich verwende /MAXLAD , hatte aber immer das Verhalten von /MAXAGE im Kopf...
(Wunderte mich eben, warum da so alten Daten in den Backups landen.... )

/MAXLAD:n :: Maximales Datum des letztes Zugriffs - schließt Dateien aus, die seit n nicht verwendet wurden.

/MAXAGE:n :: Maximales Dateialter - schließt Dateien aus, die älter als n Tage/Datum sind.

It would make for a clear cut, not carrying old stuff over.
Inspired by a piece of coding that shouldn't have been there ("I'll quickly try that it here!"), which didn't cause any problem for ~2 Upgrades, but the in the 3rd it did! (no big deal, but still...).

So every year we would get rid of the burden of old, unwanted coding and also of old, unwanted data (e.g. pre-€-Documents), eliminating them as a source of trouble.

Anyone doing this already?

#Thinking:

We're doing #SAP software development. (Putt very simple: a bunch of #ABAP-Code, called "AddOns".)

Every year, with the new S/4HANA release, we upgrade our Dev-System.
Then we test if everything still works.

Recently I was wondering:

Instead of an upgrade, we could
1. do a new installation of the latest release
2. Bring out AddOns to that
3. Create test master data (e.g. via #eCatt).
4. do our tests.
5. throw away the old system.

Nice service by #guerrillamail: Disposable Temporary E-Mail Address

#SAPNote 2835193 is found when searching for ISCMMDTYRISKOBJITMTP :

https://launchpad.support.sap.com/#/notes/2835193

It seems relevant(IS-OIL 804 - I didn't know, but that's part of a S/4HANA 1909 !) and up to date (Version 1 from 21.11.2019 )

...but I'm note sure if that will help, it seems to only change some coding in CL_CMMOI_NOMINATION_INTEGRATE ....

#SAPUpgrade1909 brings us
structure (SE11) ISCMMDTYRISKOBJITMTP , which is 'Partly active' and cant be activated because
"Too many nested INCLUDEs".

Phase: ACT_UPG
DDIC ACTIVATION ERRORS
1EEAD226 Too many nested INCLUDEs
1EEDO519 "Table" "ISCMMDTYRISKOBJITMTP" could not be activated

(It doesn't seem to hurt us (#IS_OIL something...) , as our test ran fine so far, but still it's not pretty....

#SAPupgrade

It's upgrade-time!

We're going S/4HANA 1909 (from 1809).

I'll use #SAPUpgrade1909 to tag funny (or not) things we'll encounter on that way.

While #embeddedEWM (in S/4HANA) will keep using the #qRFC-interface, the standalone version of #EWM is now connected via #IDOC.

Hey @fakefred , I just discovered your comics and I like them! Thanks for drawing and sharing!

Hi @andres

nice to see another #ABAP|er here in the fediverse!
Welcome!

Yesterday this occurred to me for the first time:
You could take this even further with negativ numbering, if you want to add more pre-steps.

Example:

-3. get some Coffee
-2. power up PC
-1. download #Eclipse

When I write an ordered list, I usually start with 1. but often add a 0. later, to give a precondition.

Example:

How to create an simple #ABAP-report?

0. Have Eclipse + AdT installed and set up!
1. Open Eclipse
2. Open your project
3. ctrl+shift+n -> new ABAP report
4. Code away!

#SAPKnowHow

...had to look this up again, today:

#ABAP existence-check:

SELECT SINGLE @abap_true
FROM dbtab
WHERE any_key
INTO @data(dummy)

IF sy-subrc = 0.
...
