Transferring application from VC 7.11 SP4 to VC 7.31 SP6

[former_member213043]

Dear Gurus,

We are trying to transfer models from a 7.11 SP 4 platform to a 7.31 SP6 platform. Our models in the old platform have not been transported but imported and compiled in the productive environment through the import/export functionality. We wanted to use the same approach for the 7.31 platform for existing models. The import/export worked fine and made the necessary adjustments. Due to some modifications in the 7.31 platform for some objects, we are not in a position to have the "converted" models working as before.

Nevertheless, the management team wants to go on with the decommissionning of the old platform. Is there a way to get the applications from the 7.11 platform as files and put them as is in the 7.31 platform. We tried to use the migration runtime option proposed in a SCN document, but as we are in 7.11 version, the models don't look like to be at the same place....

So, does anyone know how to make the transfer of applications as is from 7.11 to 7.31 versions ?

Thanks for your help

Cheers

Hi guys

We never managed to get the "old" application running on the new instance, but we got a note to correct some unexpected behaviour

Dear Gurus,

we managed to find out the files generated after deployment on the NCE 7.11 platform.

According to you, what is the probability that copying/pasting those files in the NCE 7.31 platform will make us able to run the application as-is ?

Hi PY,

Just to make sure I get it right: you want to run the old 7.11 apps without migrating the models (no import, no redeploy)?

In any case:

Migration from 7.11 to 7.2+, here is a short summary: http://scn.sap.com/docs/DOC-7294

Several of the topics are relevant only for Design Time (model) migration.

Thanks,

Hi Udi

Yes, that's exactly what we want to achieve.

Actually, we have some issues regarding some objects (combo box, some trouble in the way data is sent from 7.31 platform to a 7.01 BW system), so we want to just run the applications as is and we will transfer them a few weeks after, when all the problems regarding those objects are corrected...

I will have a look at yhe doc you referred!

Thanks a lot!
