Personal value list missing after the upgrade

[Former Member]

SAP Gurus,

Similar to earlier upgrades, my personal value list is missing in purchase requisition soon after the upgrade. I found this as a common post upgrade issue but could not find a concrete solution to restore my personal value list.

Any advise would be great.

thanks.

according to OSS note  1633984 - Input help: Personal values, personalization, default search help is this standard, SAP says "..This means that you start with an empty table after an upgrade/release change and content is not allowed to be transported to other systems."

Download your values before upgrade and re-enter it after the upgrade.

Usually an upgrade is first done in DEV, then transported to a test system and then release to production.

If you find the issue in a test system then you should have enough time to prepare yourself for the production upgrade.

thanks Juergen.

One Question: I have users personal values in one of our non- upgraded system (report RUTF4TOOLS)- Is it possible to export it to production system. FYI, this non upgraded system is no more production QA support (it was during the upgrade) ??

thanks in advance.

If you have the values visible (I never ran this report) then you can usually download it with %PC in the command field or clicking the printer and then download the spool.

This is probably the easy part.

Getting it into another system is usually a migration. As there are no programs available you need to create an own program. And you also need to get around the issues that made it easier for SAP to delete this data instead of adjusting it with the upgrade.

all good, Juergen.

One last question- what is the process to take care of this for our future upgrades ? we can save the values next time but than how the migration will work from on system to other?

thanks.

I don't know, this is not the task of a MM consultant, you have to address this to your basis consultants as this is a problem that should affect all modules
