A mySAP Business Change Enabler (mySAP BCE)
B mySAP Product Lifecycle Management (mySAP PLM)
C mySAP Customer Relationship Management (mySAP CRM)
D mySAP Supply Chain Management (mySAP SCM)
E mySAP Strategic Organization Planning (mySAP SOP)
Answer: B, C, D
mySAP BCE and mySAP SOP are fictitious products. The others are real SAP solutions.
2. The following statements about the SAP Web Application Server are correct.
A SAP Web Application Server is an evolutionary development of the previous SAP runtime environment.
B SAP Web Application Server can run only applications written in ABAP.
C SAP Web Application Server can run only on Microsoft Windows platforms.
D SAP Web Application Server provides an SMTP interface, among others.
E SAP Web AS is not scalable.
Answer: A, D
The SAP Web Application Server is a further development of the previous SAP Application Server. The SAP Web AS
can run applications written in Java using the SAP Web AS Java and is fully scalable. It can also be run on all
previously supported platforms and offers a large number of interfaces, such as an SMTP interface.
3. SAP guarantees certain maintenance durations for SAP NetWeaver-based products. The standard maintenance
can be extended because of the increased maintenance fees. How many years will an SAP product be
maintained in total, if you are willing to pay a maintenance fee increased by 2% for a part of the maintenance
time?
Answer:
The software product is maintained 6 (5 + 1) years in this case.
SAP follows 5+1+2 strategy (17% of license cost + 5 year mainstream maintenance, 1 year additional maintenance
with 2% additional fees & 2 year additional maintenance with 4% extra fees)
4. You can only work in one window (session) at a time in an SAP system.
True
False
Answer: False
You can work in up to 16 windows (sessions) simultaneously per logon (as of SAP Web AS 6.20).
5. Which of the following statements accurately describe a client in an SAP system?
A A client represents a completely independent business entity.
B A client has its own database.
C A client corresponds to a customer.
D A client may represent an entire company.
Answer: A, D
The data for all clients in an SAP system is stored within a single common database. This data is nevertheless
divided by client so that different companies can be administered and controlled in different clients. A client is
not a customer within an SAP system.
6. The following strings are valid entries in the command field:
A /nend
B /nex
C ?SM04
D /nsm04
E From SAP Easy Access: SM04
F From SAP Easy Access: search_sap_menu
Answer: A, B, D, E, F
You can enter valid transaction codes directly on the SAP Easy Access screen. If you are in another function, you
need to enter /n in front of the transaction code. /nend and /nex are two different logoff options. ?SM04 is not a
valid entry. search_sap_menu is a valid entry; it creates a search screen for entries in the SAP menu.
7. The following personalization options are available in the SAP GUI:
A You can change the font size (within limits) in the SAP GUI
B You can have system messages displayed in a dialog box
C You can change the size of input fields
D You can suppress the display of pictures in the SAP GUI
E Every user can display a picture of his or her choice on the SAP Easy Access screen
F You can use a personal input history on your front end
acdf
Answer: A, B, D, F
Numerous personalization options are available, using the Extras menu, the Customizing of local layout
pushbutton, and using the status bar and Help Settings.... End users cannot, however, change the size of input
fields. You also cannot use the SAP GUI to display a screen of your choice on the SAP Easy Access screen.
8. A program dialog step is assigned to one specific dialog work process during execution.
The individual dialog steps for a program consisting of several screens can be executed by different dialog work
processes during program runtime. This is called work process multiplexing.
A dialog work process sequentially processes dialog steps for various users and programs

The F1 help provides documentation and technical information on a field.
10. You can use the F4 key to:
A Start another session
B Display detailed technical information on a program
C Call the SAP Library
D Display possible entries for an input field
E Create a print request of the screen currently displayed
Answer: D
The F4 key provides a list of possible entries for a selected field.
11. You can also call the context-sensitive SAP Library using the F1 key.
Determine whether this statement is true or false.
Answer: True
You can call the context-sensitive help using the Application Help pushbutton in the F1 help window.

A SAP GUI for the Windows environment
B SAP GUI for the Java environment
C SAPGUI for Linux
D SAPGUI for HTML
Questions & Answers: Printing

13. Answer the following questions with reference to the two access methods you have learned about, remote and
local. Other answers may be correct for other access methods.
Which work process types are primarily responsible for creating spool requests? Choose the correct answer(s).
A Dialog
B Update
C Spool
D Background
E Enqueue
Answer: A, D
Most printing requests are started in the dialog or in background processing.
14. Which processes and hardware elements are involved (and in what order) in handling the print process using
the remote access method? The flow is only outlined here.
A S-WP > Operating system > Network > Printer
B SAP output formatting program > Network > SAP GUI Front-end CPU > Printer
C D-WP > TemSe > S-WP > Network > Operating system spool > Printer
D D-WP > S-WP > Database > Network > TemSe > Operating system spool > Printer
E D-WP > S-WP > TemSe > Network > Printer
Answer: C
Depending on the settings of the relevant system parameters, the TemSe might be located in different > places:
normally it is either in the database or at file-system level on the central instance.
Questions & Answers: Background Processing
15. What is background processing used for? Choose the correct answer(s).
A Periodic tasks
B Tasks that require user interaction
C Long-running tasks
D Printing lists
Answer: A, C
Background processing is typically used for long-running tasks or tasks that recur regularly. The prerequisite is that
these tasks do not require user interaction. The spool work process is responsible for printing lists.
Notes:
To search for sapmenu use tcode search_sap_menu & search_user_menu
Table TPARA contains all parameter ID's
One dispatcher requires at least 2 dialog processes
1 spool, 1 update, 1 background 2 for upgrades), 1 only enqueue
The Internet Communication Manager (ICM) is a process added with SAP Web AS 6.10. The ICM enables SAP systems
to communicate directly with the Internet. The ICM receives requests from the Internet and forwards them to the
SAP system for processing. It can also direct HTTP requests from an SAP system to a Web server and send the
response back to the SAP system. You can configure a maximum
of one ICM process per dispatcher.
The screen flow logic itself is further divided into PBO (Process Before Output), which is processed
before the screen image is sent, and PAI (Process After Input), which is processed after a user interaction on the
screen
The individual dialog steps for a program consisting of several screens can be executed by different dialog work
processes during program runtime. This is called work process multiplexing.

(acid - atomic consistent, isolated, durable)
A transaction is either completely successful or remains without effect (atomic). If a transaction-oriented system
goes down, you need to ensure that inconsistent, partial results are not stored.
The system status changes from one that is accurate and consistent in business terms to another that is also
accurate and consistent in business terms.
The changes made within a transaction can only be seen by other transactions, even those that run simultaneously,
after the final confirmation (Commit).
The results of a transaction are durable, that is, after the final confirmation they are recorded permanently in the
database.

Questions & Answers: R3
16. What are the advantages of a three-tier client/server configuration as compared to a single-tier or two-tier
configuration?
A Simpler scalability
B Simpler administration
C Load balancing possible
D None of the above
Answer: A, C
Implementing an additional hardware layer for application processes makes it easier to adapt an SAP system if the
number of users changes scalability), and to assign user groups to specific application servers (software-oriented
view), (load balancing). The additional hardware layer does not, however, reduce the administrative workload.
17. Which process at the application server level receives the user request?
A Work process
B Dispatcher
C Buffer
D SAP GUI
Answer: B
The dispatcher receives the user request on the application server and passes it on to an available work process.
The SAP presentation program, SAP GUI, is not part of the application server (software-oriented view), and the
buffer enables quicker processing of user requests.
18. Which work process types can you find on an SAP Web Application Server?
A Dialog work process
B Message server work process
C Update work process
D ICM work process
E Background work process
F Enqueue work process
G Spool work process
Answer: A, C, E, F, G
All of the above processes can in theory be configured on an SAP Web Application Server. However, not all of the
above processes are work processes. The message server and ICM process are not work processes.
19. The term central instance describes the instance
A That you are logged on to while working in the system
B On which all application processes required for operating an SAP system are configured
C On which the gateway process is configured
D On which the majority of work processes are configured
E On which the majority of dialog work processes are configured
Answer: B
The central instance is the instance on which all application processes required for operating an SAP system are
configured. Specifically, the central instance therefore also contains processes that are only present once per
system (such as the message server). Every instance has a gateway process, the existence of a gateway process
does not therefore denote the central instance. The number of dialog work processes, or the total number of work
processes configured on the central instance is not relevant in this context.
20. What tasks does the task handler carry out?
A Communicates with SAP GUI
B Coordinates activities within the work process
C Accesses the database
D Processes the ABAP coding on which a transaction is based
Answer: B
The task handler coordinates activities within a work process. The work process and the users SAP GUI do not
communicate directly, but through the dispatcher. The database is accessed through the database interface and
the ABAP coding is executed by the ABAP processor.
21. Is the assignment of users to dialog work processes fixed?
A Yes, it is fixed for the entire time that the user is logged on to the SAP system
B Yes, it exists for the entire duration of a transaction consisting of several screens
C No. Each dialog step of a transaction, consisting of several screens, can theoretically be processed by a
different work process
D None of the above
Answer: C
The dispatcher reassigns the user to a dialog work process for each dialog step in a transaction. The assignment of
users to dialog work processes is therefore not fixed. (The only exception to this rule is the debugging mode, in
which one dialog process is assigned to one specific user.)
22. The SAP Web Application Server database interface enables you to:
A Enhance performance using the local buffers
B Access online databases on the Internet
C Use database-independent Open SQL in ABAP programs
D Access file content on the SAP Web Application Server
Answer: A, C
When the ABAP Interpreter sends a query to the database, the database interface reads the data from the SAP Web
Application Servers local buffer, if possible. If the data required is not present in the buffer, then the interface
turns the Open SQL statement from the ABAP coding into database-specific native SQL coding. The database
interface is not used to access the content of online databases on the Internet or files on the SAP Web Application
Server.
23. Database transactions are based on the ACID principle. So are SAP transactions. Why does the database
transaction concept nevertheless not cover all the needs of the SAP system?
A An SAP transaction can bundle several database transactions. It is only as a result of all of these bundled
database transactions that the data is consistent in business terms.
B Due to work process multiplexing, each work process starts a separate database transaction within each dialog
step.
C This is because SAP developers have not done their job properly.
D Using the SAP transaction as a structural level above the database transaction significantly improves the
performance of your SAP system.
Answer: A, B
Every dialog work process starts a new database transaction within each dialog step. An SAP transaction can bundle
several database transactions in a way that makes sense from a business point of view. The concept is independent
of performance questions.
24. Where is the lock table?
A In the database
B In the main memory of the application server on which the enqueue work process is configured
C At operating system level of the database host
D The system administrator can define the location of the lock table using the profile parameter
renq/store_location
Answer: B
The lock table is located in the main memory of the SAP Web Application Server on which the enqueue work
process is configured.
25. It makes sense, in an SAP system, to configure several enqueue work processes on different SAP Web
Application Servers.
True
False
Answer: False
It does not make sense to configure enqueue work processes on different SAP Web Application Servers, since there
can be only one lock table per SAP system and this lock table is located in the main memory of the SAP Web
Application Server on which the enqueue work process is configured.
26. Why are asynchronous updates used for dialog transactions?
A Only asynchronous updates can access the SAP system buffers
B Because an SAP transaction can consist of several database transactions and this approach means that the
requirements for the rollback are met
C Because only update work processes can access the database data
D None of the above
Answer: B
Asynchronous updates solve the problems caused by the different interpretations of transaction at database level
and at SAP level. Bundling all updates for one SAP transaction into a single database transaction ensures that the
data that belongs to this SAP transaction can be rolled back completely. Every work process is continuously
connected to the database, therefore every work process can access the database dataset. Access to the SAP
system buffers does not depend on the type of update used.
27. During asynchronous updates, which process records the data to be changed in VB* tables?
A Update work process
B dispatcher
C Recording work process
D Dialog work process
Answer: D
The dialog process records the data to be changed in the VB* tables, while the update work process handles the
final update of the target tables (the tables that are actually relevant to business). There is no such thing as a
recording work process.

28. Application Link Enabling (ALE) allows you to:
A Exchange data only between SAP systems, as long as they have the same release status
B Exchange data across system boundaries, but only for SAP applications
C Exchange data between collaborating enterprises, using certain formats and technologies
D The communication between different systems of your system landscape
E Update your order data using the appropriate BAPI, only once every 24 hours
Answer: C, D
ALE is a very powerful method of exchanging data between systems. These systems may be located within the
same company, or they may be distributed between several companies. The data is transferred by RFC in a
previously defined format. The transfer type may be synchronous or asynchronous.
29. The following interfaces and communication options are supported by SAP systems:
A HTTP (HyperText Transfer Protocol)
B SMTP (Simple Mail Transfer Protocol)
C RFC(RemoteFunctionCall)
D BAPIs (Business Application Programming Interfaces)
E XDTP (Extended Data Transfer Protocol)
F STP (SAP Transfer Protocol)
Answer: A, B, C, D
From an SAP system, you can communicate with other systems using, for example, HTTP, SMTP, RFC, or BAPIs.
XDTP and STP do not exist.
30. You can use BAPIs to: Choose the correct answer(s).
A Request data from an SAP system
B Pass data to an SAP system

C Transfer SAP screen images to third-party applications (such as MS Word)
D Access business processes in SAP systems
Answer: A, B, D
You can use BAPIs to access business processes in an SAP system and to request and transfer data between systems.
GUI functions cannot be transferred to third-party products.
31. You access BAPIs in SAP systems using an RFC interface.
True
False
Answer: True
BAPIs are nothing other than special, remote-enabled function modules. They can therefore also be addressed
using RFCs.
32. Business _______Programming Interfaces are specialized ______ modules. They are accessed using
the _____ interface. They are created and managed using the ________ Builder.
Fill in the blanks to complete the sentence.
Answer: Application, function, RFC, Function
You can start the Business Object Repository using transaction code BAPI, and the Function Builder using
transaction code SE37.
33. SAP Business Workflow ensures that:
A Appropriately configured business processes can be partially automated
B Appropriately configured business processes are executed in consistent sequences
C The right employee receives the right work at the right time
D Your workflow-supported business processes are handled more efficiently
E All your company processes that have been implemented in ABAP run without errors
Answer: A, B, C, D
Supporting business processes with workflow enables the work steps that belong to these processes to be handled
on a partially automated basis. These steps are assigned in consistent sequences to the appropriate employee at
the right point in time. This enhances processing efficiency. Using workflow obviously does not guarantee that the
programs you write will always run without errors.
34. You can also use SAP Business Workflow functions (for example, with XML) to trigger functions in other
systems. Determine whether this statement is true or false.
True
False
Answer: True
You can use workflow to send XML messages that then trigger subsequent actions in other systems, as long as they
are appropriately configured.
35. The SAP ITS provides the following functions/options:

A Automatically converts protocols from HTTP to DIAG/RFC and back
B Automatically generates SAP screens as HTML pages
C Uses IACs to implement predefined Internet scenarios
D SendsIDocs
E The WGate communicates directly with dialog work processes
F The AGate communicates with SAP system application servers
Answer: A, B, C, F
The SAP ITS automatically converts protocols from HTTP to DIAG/RFC, and vice versa; it also generates HTML pages
from SAP screens and makes predefined Internet scenarios available as IACs. The ITS does not send IDocs, nor does
the WGate communicate directly with work processes. The application gateway carries out this part of the
communication process.
36. The following statements are true of the SAPWeb Application Server:
A The SAP Web AS enables the creation of Business Server Pages
B The ICM is a process outside the SAP Web AS, as is the SAP ITS
C The ICM uses a Web server to communicate with Web browsers
D You can use a URL to call Business Server Pages directly in your browser
E You can only install the SAP Web AS in conjunction with the SAP ITS
Answer: A, D
The SAP Web AS provides the ICM as a completely integrated process that enables you to call BSPs directly, using a
URL. You do not need either an SAP ITS or a Web server to do this.
37. The SAP BC enables ALE scenarios across company boundaries.
True
False
Answer: True
Because the SAP BC can transfer data in XML format to other systems, it enables inter-enterprise ALE scenarios.
38. SAP provides the following tools free of charge to help you organize your data transfer project:
A Data Transfer Workbench (DX Workbench)
B Data Transfer Enabler (DTE)
C Flat File Importer (FFI)
D Legacy System Migration Workbench (LSMW)
E Database Content Replicator (DCR)
F ERP Data Transfer Wizard (EDTW)
Answer: A, D
The Data Transfer Workbench and the Legacy System Migration Workbench.
39. The following methods and interfaces are available for importing data into SAP systems:
A BAPIs (Business Application Programming Interfaces)
B IDocs (Intermediate Documents)
C Batch input
D DIIs (Data Import Interfaces)
E STF (SAP table filler)
F None of the above
Answer: A, B, C
BAPIs, IDocs and batch input, along with direct input, are the primary procedures used to import data into an SAP
system. The remaining answers are wrong.
40. Where can you download the Legacy System Migration Workbench?
Answer: You can download the Legacy System Migration Workbench on the SAP Service Marketplace, using the
Quick Link /lsmw followed by the download area for that page.
Notes: General R3
This distribution is called work process multiplexing. Work process multiplexing means that a system function
whose content is logically connected but which consists of multiple substeps can be processed by various dialog
work processes.
These steps whose content is connected are described as transactions.
only dialog work process - support multiplexing
All other work process types process entire functions; that is, complete business processes.
logon groups - to restrict access to certain app server & also to load balance within a logon group
1. The program buffers can be set up more "economically" (smaller).
2. Less "swapping" is performed for the program buffers, and they therefore perform better.

41. The instance that, together with the database, creates a runnable SAP system, is called the __________. Fill
in the blanks to complete the sentence.
Answer: central instance
The instance that, together with the database, creates a runnable SAP system, is called the central instance.
42. What types of work processes are there in the SAP system?
A Update work process
B Spool work process
C Dialog work process
D ICM work process
E Enqueue work process

F Instance work process
Answer: A, B, C, E
The ICM (Internet Communication Manager) is not a work process, but rather a service of the SAP Web Application
Server. An instance consists of a dispatcher and multiple work processes. The instance itself is therefore not a work
process. In addition to the correct work process types listed above, there are also background work processes.
43. SAP systems use _______________ technology to process user requests.
Answer: work process multiplexing
Put differently, this means that there is not a one-to-one assignment of user to dialog work process for the entire
duration of the logon.
44. Which button(s) can you use to create new entries in the SAP Logon system list?
A Properties
B New
C Logon
D Groups
E Server
F Create
Answer: B, D, E
You can use the Properties button to display the properties of an entry. You can use the Logon button to log on the
selected system. There is no Create button in the SAP Logon program.
45. What possible advantages does the correct use of logon groups offer? Choose the correct answer(s).
A The users are automatically logged on to the correct system
B The program buffers perform better
C The program buffers can be set up smaller
D The program buffers may now be larger than 1 GB in size
Answer: B, C
The users still need to log on to the system in the normal way after logon groups have been configured. Creating
logon groups is not a prerequisite for setting buffer sizes of above 1 GB.
46. With which transaction can you obtain an overview of the instances of your SAP system?
A SM50
B SM51
C SM52
D SM04
Answer: B
Transaction SM50 lists the work processes of an instance. Transaction SM52 does not exist, and transaction SM04
calls the user list for an instance.
47. You can use transaction _____ to manage the lock entries of the SAP system. Transaction _______ is used to
manage the update requests. Fill in the blanks to complete the sentence.
Answer: SM12, SM13
Transactions SM12 and SM13 are important tools for the system administrator.

48. Which SAP processes are started when the SAP system or an instance is started?
A SAPOSCOL
B START_SAP_NOW
C Message Server
D Gateway Server
E LAUNCH_DB
Answer: A, C, D
SAPOSCOL is an underlying process that should always be running, even if the SAP system is shut down.
START_SAP_NOW and LAUNCH_DB are made up. The message server is started once for each SAP system, and the
gateway server is started once for each instance.
49. Log information for the dispatcher is stored in the file _______. You can control the granularity of the logged
information using the profile parameter________. There are _____ trace levels; error messages and warnings
are displayed, by default, at level ___. Fill in the blanks to complete the sentence.
Answer: dev_disp, rdisp/TRACE, four, 1

50. You can display the users logged on to the SAP system with transactions ____ and _____. You can obtain an
overview of the scheduled background jobs with transaction ______. You can use transaction ______ to send a
system message to the users that are logged on. Fill in the blanks to complete the sentence.
Answer: SM04, AL08, SM37, SM02
Transaction SM04 is instance-specific, transaction AL08, on the other hand, is cross-instance. In transaction SM37,
you can select by client and user, among other things. In transaction SM02, you can restrict the sending of the
message to instances or clients.

51. In which sequence are the system parameters read from the specified locations by the system?
A 1. Instance profile 2. Default profile 3. Kernel
B 1. start.ini 2. Kernel 2. Default profile 4. Instance profile
C 1. Kernel 2. Default profile 3. Instance profile
D 1. Kernel 2. start.ini 3. Default profile 4. Instance profile
Answer: C
There is no file called start.ini involved in this context; it has been made up. (start profile contains kernel path)
52. In which profile can you change the number of background work processes?
A Start profile
B Default profile
C Background profile
D Instance profile
Answer: D
The instance profile is the correct profile in this case, as settings in this profile only apply to the affected
instance, and the number of work processes for an instance is to be defined here. The start profile contains
information about the processes to be started during the system start. In the default profile, you maintain
parameters that apply to all instances or for the entire SAP system. The background
profile does not exist.
53. You can use transaction ____ to check the consistency of individual profiles.
Answer: RZ10
In addition to the consistency of the individual profiles, you can use transaction RZ10 to check all profiles. In this
case, the system also checks the consistency between the profiles.
54. In which sequence should you perform the listed steps when setting up operation modes?
A 1. Create operation modes 2. Assign instances 3. Distribute work processes 4. Maintain time table
B 1. Create operation modes 2. Maintain time table 3. Distribute work processes 4. Assign instances
C 1. Create operation modes 2. Distribute work processes 3. Maintain time table 4. Assign instances
Answer: A
It is especially important that you follow the correct sequence when first setting up the operation modes.

the ______.
Answer: log files, database
The log mechanism is essential and must not be deactivated.
61. To minimize the risk of data loss, we strongly recommend a _____ complete data backup. If you use a partial
data backup as your daily backup, you must perform a complete data backup at least once a _____.
Answer: daily, week
In addition to a complete data backup, you should, of course, also back up the log information at least once a day.
Notes: Data Archiving
Data archiving means the consistent removal of data objects from database tables of the SAP system database,
where all table entries that characterize a data object are written to an archive file outside the database.
Business consistency is ensured by SAP archiving programs that store all relevant table entries together on the
basis of archiving objects.
connection between an archiving object & database table can be found using tcode DB15
Document storage means the general electronic storage and management of documents on storage systems outside
the SAP system. The documents are transferred to a document storage system. Only a pointer that links to the
stored documents and allows access is administered in the SAP system.
SAP Archive Link is a data interface integrated into the SAP Web Application Server that controls communication
with storage systems.
Advantages of data archiving

Improve response times or ensure good response times
Reduce costs for database administration
Reduce system downtime for software upgrades, recoveries, and (offline) data backups
Legal requirements and business requirements must be taken into account here, such as:
1. Country-specific retention rules 2. Data must be available to auditors 3. Potential reusability of data
Process
1. Creating the archive file(s): In the first step, the write program creates one (or more) archive file(s). The data
to be archived is then read from the database and written to the archive file(s).
2. Storing the archive file(s): After the write program has completed the creation of the archive files, these can be
stored. (HSM, optical, manual (tape))
3. Deleting the data - the delete program first reads the data in the archive file and then deletes the
corresponding records from the database.
Pre-processing programs - set the archive deletion indicator
Post-processing - such as updating stats.
Data reload - reloads back archived data if required
Application data should only be archived if it will not change again, and it will probably only rarely be necessary to
display it. This also means that documentation requirements should be satisfied before application data is archived
by creating all of the documents required for subsequent audits.
A central element of data archiving is the archiving object. It defines the smallest unit that can be completely
archived and deleted from the database, and describes which database objects must be accessed, and how, to
completely archive a business object.
The archiving object-specific parameters for an archiving run are set using the Customizing settings.
Archiving objects can be defined using transaction AOBJ
Transaction SARA
General Customizing (Basis Customizing)
Defining logical path and file names
Cross-Archiving Object Customizing
Define the server group for background processing
Archiving Object-Specific Customizing
Size of an archive file
Settings for the delete program
Transaction SARI - archive explorer
62. Every archiving object in the SAP system is connected 1:1 with the content of a single database table.
True
False
Answer: False
Different business objects could belong to each archiving object in the SAP system. The data for these business
objects could, in turn, be distributed across multiple database tables.
63. The names of the archive files are determined at runtime. How are these names generally specified for a
specific archiving object? Choose the correct answer(s).
A By cross-object Customizing settings
B By maintaining a local path and assigning the logical path to a physical path in the Basis Customizing
C By assigning a physical file name to a logical file name in Basis Customizing and assigning a logical file name to
an archiving object in the archiving object-specific Customizing
D By the exact time of the archiving run
Answer: C
The name of the archive files is determined at runtime by settings in the archiving object-specific Customizing
(assignment of a logical file name for the specific archiving object) and in the Basis Customizing (assignment of a
physical file name to a logical file name in the
Basis Customizing and the assignment of a logical file name). No specifications about the name of the archive file
are made in cross-object Customizing. The exact time of the archiving run can appear in the name of the archiving
file using a parameter, but the name is generally not determined by this alone.
64. After data has been archived from the SAP system and deleted it from the SAP system's database, it is no
longer possible to access this data with read accesses. Determine whether this statement is true or false.
True
False
Answer: False
It is still possible to access data to read it after it has been stored in the archive and deleted from the SAP system's
database. Depending on the archiving object concerned, there may be a number of views between which the user
can choose (such as a technical view and a business view).
Notes: Transports Management
The repository is the central store for all development objects of the ABAP Workbench and is cross-client. The
repository objects are stored in packages. Packages are containers for semantically-linked development objects.
They replace development classes.
Packages are managed using package builder.
The settings of an SAP system are described as Customizing.
SAP systems are divided into business units, in clients. A client is a self-contained unit in commercial,
organizational, and technical terms in an SAP system and consists of business settings (Customizing), its own
master and transaction data, and its own user data.
Extension of the repository through "customer developments". In the SAP system, it is possible to create your own
repository objects such as tables, programs, transactions, and so on. Creation of customer namespace.
Adjusting the repository with customer enhancements. In this case, customer objects are added to the repository.
The SAP standard programs can be extended with customer objects at specified points in the coding, called
"Customer Exits"
Modifications to the standard SAP system: Changes to SAP objects (programs, table definitions) are described as
modification. The repository delivered by SAP is not only extended, but changed.
The clients should have identical id's as far as possible
Questions & Answers: Transports
65. Which elements are part of the data structure of an SAP system? Choose the correct answer(s).
A Registry repository
B Object repository
C Client
D Database server
E Cross-Client Customizing
F SAP Kernel
Answer: B, C, E
The object repository, cross-client Customizing, and the clients are part of the data structure of an SAP system.
The database structure is not part of the data structure; rather, it contains it.
66. Decide which of the following statements are correct. Choose the correct answer(s).
A Entering customer data requires a Customizing request.
B A change request contains one or more tasks.
C A task can always be assigned to only one developer.
D Any Customizing requires a Customizing request.
Answer: B, C
Entering customer data is not part of Customizing and therefore does not require a Customizing request. Only
client-dependent Customizing requires a Customizing request; cross-client Customizing, on the other hand,
requires a workbench request.
A change request contains one or more tasks, each of which are assigned to only one developer.
67. Which statements are correct? Choose the correct answer(s).
A The transport of objects is divided into Export, Storage, and Import phases.
B The import into the target system is performed automatically at midnight GreenwichMean Time.
C The transport directory is specified by parameter DIR_TRANS.
D When transporting, the following rule applies: The target client is the same as the source client, unless
otherwise specified.
Answer: C, D
The transport is divided into only two phases, Export and Import. The import into the database of the target
system is never performed automatically.
Notes: ABAP Workbench
The ABAP Dictionary is a central component of the ABAP Workbench. It contains both business and technical
definitions and descriptions of SAP data. Many ABAP Workbench tools (such as the ABAP processor, the screen
processor, and the Screen Painter) constantly access information in the ABAP Dictionary - only structures are
defined in the dictionary - all the info. gets created in the database
The ABAP Editor (transaction SE38), to write ABAP programs
The ABAP Dictionary (transaction SE11), to define and describe tables, data elements, lock objects, and so on
The Screen Painter (transaction SE51, in subdirectory User Interface), to create interactive user interfaces
The Function Builder (transaction SE37), to create and manage function modules (these are encapsulated sections
of ABAP code with a defined input/output interface
In any screen you can go to system status ABAP editor, Screen painter, Menu Painter
Development class = package
Data element = semantic attribute
domain = technical attribute (You can use domains to group fields that have similar technical or business purposes.
A domain defines the value range for all table fields and structure components that refer to that domain)
type group = user defined data types
The domain is used to technically define the table field. Field length and type, output attributes and possible
values restriction using fixed values, for example, are defined in the domain.
Data elements are used to describe the semantic attributes of a field in the context of the table. These attributes
are only significant within the table, but not generally (as technical attributes are).
In the data element, you can, for example, define a short description of the table field that is displayed on the
screen when you call the F1 help. You can also specify in the data element the text that is displayed on
Input fields that refer to the data element (field label, for example, Destination Airport)
The two-level domain concept (consisting of the data element level and the domain level) allows technical field
attributes to be defined and maintained at the domain level.
68. What is the ABAP Workbench? Choose the correct answer(s).
A A performance assessment tool for ABAP programs
B A sort of to do list for ABAP developers; contains all tasks still to be processed
C An integrated graphical development environment for ABAP programs
D A directory of all valid ABAP commands
Answer: C
The ABAP Workbench is the SAP system's integrated graphical development environment. It supports, among other
things, the development and administration of applications written in ABAP, SAP's programming language. The
Workbench also contains transactions for assessing the performance of ABAP commands and for managing
development projects. These are, however, simply components of the Workbench.
69. How can you access an SAP transaction's underlying ABAP code (assuming that you have the authorization to do
so)? Choose the correct answer(s).
A System > Status , and double click >Program (Screen) > under > Repository Data
B By using Program > Display source code, available in every SAP transaction
C By calling the ABAP Editor and entering the corresponding ABAP program name
D By pressing F2 when you are in a transaction
Answer: A, C
You can access the source code using System > Status and choosing > Program (Screen), or using the ABAP Editor.
The menu path System > Status is available on every screen.
70. What do you use domains for? Choose the correct answer(s).
A For defining the technical attributes of a field
B For adding foreign key dependencies
C For defining the semantic attributes of a field
D For entering data in a table
Answer: A
You use domains for defining the technical attributes of fields in a table. The semantic attributes of a field are
defined in the data element.
71. What is a foreign key? Choose the correct answer(s).
A The definition of technical attributes of fields in a table
B A key that developers need to be able to edit Repository objects
C The definition of relationships between tables to ensure their consistency
D The key required for installing an SAP system on a host computer on which a non-SAP system is already installed
Answer: C
A foreign key defines a relationship between two tables. A foreign key assigns the fields of one table (known as the
foreign key table) to the primary key fields of another table (known as the check table). The technical attributes
of table fields are defined in a domain.
You need an object key to edit Repository objects.
Notes: Patch Management
Plug-In (PI): An SAP R/3 Plug-In provides interfaces between a mySAP component (such as SAP CRM) and a standard
SAP R/3 system.
A Support Package is a quantity of corrected SAP objects. Support Packages are required to correct errors in
various components. This is done by replacing erroneous objects with corrected versions of these objects.
Patch tables PAT01, PAT03, AVERS

industry solution brings new objects and additional customizing into the system
an industry solution CAN modify the SAP std. objects and change existing customizing
a CRT can be required to correct conflicts between the SAP std. and an industry solution or an IS support package
(ABAP Dictionary objects are adjusted with transaction SPDD, Repository objects with transaction SPAU.)
Note: SAP Notes may not change DDIC objects. There is therefore no SPDD modification adjustment during an
upgrade or when importing Support Packages.
72. What are Support Packages and Add-Ons used for? Choose the correct answer(s).
A To enter user data.
B To import SAP object to maintain the system with a current correction status.
C To implement additional functions in the system.
D To transport customer-developed programs.
E To import preliminary corrections from SAP.
Answer: B, C
Support Packages are not used to enter user data. Customer developments are transported to other systems using
transport requests. Preliminary corrections are imported using the SAP Note Assistant.
73. Support Packages can be imported in any order. Determine whether this statement is true or false.
True
False
Answer: False
Support Packages must be imported in ascending order, without any gaps.
74. All SPAM/SAINT updates must always be imported. Determine whether this statement is true or false.
True
False
Answer: False
All associated programs are always upgraded during the SPAM/SAINT update. It is therefore not necessary to follow
any particular order.
75. The queue for importing the SPAM update must be manually confirmed.
True
False
Answer: False
It is not necessary either to define a special queue, nor to confirm this non-existent queue.
76. A prerequisite for importing a SPAM/SAINT update is that there are no aborted Support Packages in the system.
True
False
Answer: True
This is true, there must not be any aborted Support Packages in the system.
77. You use transaction ______ to import individual SAP Notes. Using the Note Assistant means that you are not
queried for an _________ in the SAP Service Marketplace. SAP Notes that have been imported using the _____
Assistant do not require a modification adjustment with transaction _____.
Answer: SNOTE, object key, Note, SPAU
SNOTE is used to import individual SAP Notes, the modification adjustment is performed with SPAU. It is also not
necessary to enter an SSCR key.
Notes: Background Tasks
std. jobs - for housekeeping, collection of stats.
Job types: time dependent, event dependent
std. jobs are defined in table REORGJOBS
event dependent jobs - can be scheduled with one of following conditions
After event
The job starts after a defined event is received by the SAP system.
At operation mode
With this option, you can link a job to the activation of an operation mode when scheduling the job.
After job
In this way, you can create simple job chains in which the execution of the successor job can be made dependent
on the status of the predecessor job.
define events in - SM62 (system events - cannot be changed by user / user events)
sm64 - trigger events
Events can be triggered in various ways:
Manually in CCMS for test purposes (transaction SM64)
Within an ABAP program (through use of the function module BP_EVENT_RAISE)
Outside the SAP system at operating system level using the program sapevt.
usually - do not put more than 1 background work process for processing class 'A' jobs
setup job server group in SM61
use a 'system' user type when creating background users
sm69 - create external os programs / command
sm49 - to test the external command
external program / command - are called using program 'sapxpg'
External commands are host system commands or programs predefined in the SAP system by an administrator. They
are protected by authorizations
External programs are unrestricted commands that are neither predefined nor restricted by authorizations. A user
with administration authorization can enter any external program in a job step.
Whether the process is to be logged. The output data is written to the log as it is output by the external program.
The language can differ here from your logon language. You can also call additional information about the data of
an external program in the job log.
How the SAP control program should end and whether the external program triggers an event. After you have
started service programs with the background processing system (such as daemons in UNIX systems), they remain
active after the start.
They are not ended and do not return to the SAP background processing system, as is the case with other
programs. If you start a service program, you should not use the control flag setting Job waiting for ext.
termination when scheduling the job.
78. A background job contains one or more _______. An ABAP program or an ____ command or program can be
executed in a ________of this type. A job can be triggered at a particular _______ or when a defined _____
occurs.
Answer: steps, external, step, time, event
After the job is triggered, it is processed without interruption by a single background work process.
79. What status can a job have? Choose the correct answer(s).
A Running
B Released
C Waiting
D Finished
E Error
F Active
Answer: B, D, F
In addition to the three correct answers, a job could have the status Scheduled, Ready, or Canceled.
Scheduled Released Ready Active Finished Canceled
80. Which of the listed options for time-dependent scheduling of a job can be implemented with the standard
resources of the SAP system?
A Daily at 1500
B The second-last working day of every month
C Every nine days, but not on Sundays
D Only tomorrow at 2355
E Every year on April 1 at 0800
Answer: A, B, C, D, E
All of the options listed can be realized by default.
81. Which of the listed options for event-dependent scheduling of a job can be implemented with the standard
resources of the SAP system?
A Whenever the system switches to the Night operation mode
B After the job Job1 has run successfully
C Whenever a particular event has been triggered
D Whenever the periodic job Job2 has run successfully
Answer: A, B, C
Option D cannot be realized in the standard system. However, you can implement this as one of many additional
possibilities by extending the standard system using function modules.
82. If one of the system's ten background work processes is reserved for class A jobs, and jobs are being processed
in the other nine work processes, the reserved work process remains free even if a class A job is waiting for
execution. Determine whether this statement is true or false.
True
False
Answer: False
The work processes that are reserved for class A jobs process class A jobs. The option to reserve work processes for
class A jobs should only prevent all work processes being occupied with class B or C jobs.
83. If a user has authorization to schedule an external program as a step of a background job, he or she can run
any operating system command. Determine whether this statement is true or false.
True
False
Answer: True
If you do not want, as an administrator, to assign this critical authorization, but want to enable your users to run a
specific operating system command, you can define an external command in the SAP system.
Notes: Printing
Parameter rspo/store_location = db (temse location) / G - in global directory (good performance)
Spool requests are stored in TST03
The creation of an output request prompts the SAP spool system to send a (usually) printer-dependent, completely
formatted data stream to a printer using an operating system spooler (OS spool). This means that the addressed
printer model must be known to the SAP system.
Definitions of this type are described as device types.
A characteristic of local printing is that the spool work process and operating system spool are running on the same
host. (Local printing access methods - windows C, unix L)
For performance reasons - use remote printing only in LAN environment
Frontend printing cannot be used for background tasks - no spool generation possible
SWIN - can not be used for local printing

note - 8928 - all device types supported by sap
sp01 print statutes waiting, proc, print, compl, f5, problem, error, time
delete old req run report RSPO1041
consistency check run report RSPO1043
web printing - 351230
84. Which of the following access methods exist in the SAP system?
A Remote printing
B Front end printing
C Instance printing
D Local printing
Answer: A, B, D
Instance printing does not exist.
85. Which of the listed states can a spool request have?
A Compl.
B Canceled
C Error
D Waiting
E Active
F Print.
Answer: A, C, D, F
The incorrect options canceled and active are possible status messages from job monitoring. Other possible
statuses of a spool request are -, +, Proc., <F5>, Problem, and Time.
Notes: User Administration
86. How are authorizations assigned to a user? Choose the correct answer(s).
A Users are assigned authorizations using profiles.
B Users are assigned authorizations using roles.
C Users are assigned authorizations using user names.
D Users are assigned authorizations using a Certification Authority.
Answer: A, B
Authorizations are combined into profiles. The roles assigned to users contain profiles with appropriate
authorizations for the role.
Authorizations are not assigned using user names or a CA.
87. The SAP authorization concept is a positive concept because ...Choose the correct answer(s).
A every user automatically receives all authorizations.

B authorizations must be explicitly assigned.
C the range of features of the authorization check is so large.
D the developers programmed it efficiently.
Answer: B
SAP uses a positive authorization concept. This means that everything that is not explicitly allowed is
automatically forbidden.
88. System parameters for the user logon are in the area ____. To display user's incorrect logon attempts, call the
Information System with transaction ___. The system trace function is called using transaction ____. Fill in the
blanks to complete the sentence.
Answer: login, SUIM, ST01
User logon settings are implemented using the login/* parameter. The Information System is called with
transaction SUIM, the system trace function with ST01.
Notes: Setting up RFCs
RFC is a super-ordinate term for various implementation variants.
sRFC is the synchronous call of function modules. This means that the client waits until the server has completed
its processing.
In an SAP system, an RFC can also be performed asynchronously in another work process.
This variant is called aRFC.
There is also tRFC, the transactional Remote Function Call. Transactional RFC is asynchronous and ensures that
data that is sent more than once due to network problems can be recognized at the server side, by assigning a
Transaction Identifier (TID). This allows you to prevent data being processed more than once, leading to erroneous
information in the application. Due to the asynchronous processing, however, parameters can only be transferred
from the client to the server in this case. Returning information or status information directly is not possible.
qRFC with Send Queue is an extension of tRFC.
It creates a layer between applications and the tRFC and only allows the tRFC to transfer a
Logical Unit of Work (LUW) to the target server when its predecessors are no longer in the associated wait queues.
After a qRFC LUW is executed, the qRFC manager automatically processes the next waiting qRFC LUW in
accordance with the sequence in the wait queue.
FastRFC, unlike the other communication variants of RFC that have been introduced, is not used for
communication between different systems, but rather for data exchange between the SAP J2EE Engine and the
ABAP runtime environment of a SAP Web AS.
89. Which Remote Function Call procedures does an SAP system provide?
A synchronousRFC
B reflexiveRFC
C loopedRFC
D transactional RFC
E cut-throughRFC
F queuedRFC
Answer: A, D, F
In addition to the three correct answers (synchronous, transactional, and queued RFC), the system also provides
asynchronous RFC and FastRFC.
90. Which RFC variant can you use to process work steps in parallel?
Answer: You can use asynchronous RFC to process program steps in parallel, as long as there are work processes
available in the system.
91. To connect two SAP systems by RFC, you require an _________ in each system (this automatically exists) and a
defined _______ from one system to the other.
Answer: RFC interface, RFC connection
The basic requirement is the RFC interface, which is in the protocol stack of every SAP system. You must also set
up a connection from the calling system to the called system (transaction SM59).

A SAP* and DDIC are SAP users with no critical authorizations.
B By default, user DDIC exists only in client 000.
C HTTP, encrypted using SSL, is called HTTPS.
D The ICM can accept encrypted connections.
Answer: B, C, D
SAP* and DDIC certainly do have critical authorizations. The other statements are true.
Notes: ITS
status of ITS at OS level command ITSVControl /c status /v *.

stop agate ITSVControl /c stop /r agate /v <SID>.
restart ITS ITSVControl /c start /r agate /v <SID>.
In the ITS Administration Tool, navigate to the following setting: <SID> -> <Host> -> Configuration -> Performance
-> MaxWorkThreads.
Hint: The number of available workthreads determines how many requests the AGate can process simultaneously.
~exitURL parameter points to the Web address that is called when an ITS Service is closed
Changes to service parameters do not require a restart of the SAP ITS.
Use program SITSPMON (started from transaction SE38) for a summary of the integrated ITS status.
The ICM is the process that turns the classic SAP application server into SAP Web Application Server.
Some features of the ISC: icm/HTTP/server_cache*
Two-level hierarchy: When storing objects, the advantages of both the high speed of main memory (memory cache)
and the storage capacity of hard disks (disk cache) are used.
Dynamic caching: Traditional products are based on HTTP proxies and usually offer caching only of static content,
such as images.
The ISC can also cache dynamic content such as JSPs or BSPs.
Active caching: The application has full control over ensuring that the objects in the cache are up to date.
UFO caching: Invalid requests (Unfound Objects) that lead to error situations in the application server or the
database are directly rejected, so that the system is protected against invalid or malignant requests.
The ICF is the bridge between the kernel of the SAP system and the application program written in ABAP.
An ICF service therefore creates a connection between a URL to which an HTTP request is sent and development
objects that process this request.
/sap/bc/bsp/sap/it00. It offers various test cases from and for developers of BSP applications.
total no of nodes in the cluster is limited to - 64
ntscmgr install sapwebdisp -b <program path>sapwebdisp.exe -p "service pf=<profile file> <options>"

99. Which of the following technology components can be used together with an SAP R/3 Enterprise system?
A SAP Internet Transaction Server (SAP ITS)
B Internet Communication Manager (ICM)
C SAP J2EE Engine
Answer: A, B, C
All of the above. The SAP ITS can be used with any SAP system (as of SAP Basis 3.1G). The technical foundation of
SAP R/3 Enterprise is SAP Web AS 6.20 - for which the ICM and SAP J2EE Engine can be configured.
100. Which tools can you use to administer an SAP ITS? Choose the correct answer(s).
A Commands at operating system level
B Transaction SITS in the SAP system
C ITS Administration tool
D Microsoft Management Console with the SAP ITS Snap-In
Answer: A, C
There are various programs at operating system level after an SAP ITS installation that you can use to administer
an SAP ITS. The browser-based ITS Administration tool, with which you can also monitor remote SAP ITS instances,
is easier to use.
101. Which statement is correct? Choose the correct answer(s).

A The ICM is implemented as a thread and is available for a large number of operating systems.
B You can use an instance profile parameter to configure how many ICMs are started for each dispatcher.
C SAP recommends that you operate a separate ICM for each client in an SAP system.
D None of the above answers is correct.
Answer: D
All of the answers provided are incorrect. The ICM is a process (which internally consists of multiple threads) that
is available for all operating systems supported by SAP. You can use a profile parameter to configure either no ICM
or one ICM for each SAP instance (and therefore for each dispatcher). Scaling is performed using the settings for
the number of threads and memory allocation.
102. The ICM is relevant only for applications based on BSPs. Determine whether this statement is true or false.
True
False
Answer: False
Executing BSP applications requires the ICM. However, there are also other applications (Web services such as
SOAP/XML or Web reporting with the SAP BW), that use the ICM and ICF but do not use BSPs). Thanks to the ICM
and ICF, the SAP Web AS can also perform the role of Web client and can process other protocols such as SMTP in
addition to HTML.
103. Which statement(s) is/are correct? Choose the correct answer(s).
A The SAP Web dispatcher stores system information in a small local database.
B The SAP Web dispatcher knows the capacity of all application servers in the SAP system.
C The SAP Web dispatcher makes a firewall superfluous.
D The SAP Web dispatcher communicates with the message server.
Answer: B, D
The SAP Web dispatcher communicates with the message server by HTTP(S) to obtain information about the
available application servers (which includes their capacity). Although the SAP Web dispatcher can act as a URL
filter, it does not replace the function of a firewall.
Only requests that are addressed to the configured port of the SAP Web dispatcher are processed.
Notes: Globalization
SAINT - import non std. country versions
STZAC - set time zones
use SMLT to import additional languages
translation workbench - for multi language environments
translation environment se63 was connected to transport system - meaning translation activities can be stored in
the transport requests
- for updating the customizing text in the higher clients - report RSREFILL - compares the Customizing texts in
logon clients with the SAP defaults in client 000 in a reference language. If the texts are identical, the translations
of these texts in the target language are copied from client 000 to the logon client. (SAP Note 4804)
zcsa/installed_languages --> must be entered
SAP_BC_TRANSPORT_ADMINISTRATOR - auth. contained in this role
translation gaps - start language supplementation - must perform for each productive client separately
import language re-import text from support package - supplement the imported language - check randomly
zcsa/installed_languages = DEF - german, english & french
multi display / multi processing - MDMP - with this --> The logon language determines the code page that is active
for each user.
The character set describes the storage of a character. The options are single byte character sets (one byte per
character), double byte character sets (one or two bytes per character), and Unicode character sets (one or more
bytes per character).
The code page determines the assignment of a character to a hexadecimal value. There are various standards for
this, such as ISO and Microsoft. SAP uses its own four digit identifiers, such as 1100 and 8500. The locale is a set of
rules for a national language. It describes the conversion of lowercase characters to uppercase characters, if they
exist. It is also responsible for the national alphabetical sorting.
unicode - Exchanging data between systems with incompatible character sets can also lead to completely
undefined situations.
The solution to the problem is to use a code page that contains all characters of all languages that are relevant for
business.
for unicode conversion - all the components which u want to install must support unicode, above web as 6.10
post processing of converted data - SUMG transaction
note : 79991
30% more db size, more cpu / ram required
non unicode - to unicode is a seperate step - and can not be done along with upgrade
104. Which statements are correct with regard to globalization? Choose the correct answer(s).
A The logon language for the SAP system is determined by the country version.
B A country version must always be imported as an add-on before it can be used.
C Time zones can be attached to a user master record or an object.
D The time zone from the user master record is taken into account in all SAP Basis/SAP Web AS transactions.
E Before time zones can be used, they must be defined in the system, together with any daylight saving time
definition.
F A global company must essentially be mapped as a single client in a single SAP system, as otherwise no
integrated business processes are possible.
Answer: C, E
Centralized and decentralized system configurations with their hybrid forms, country versions, and time zones are
some aspects that must be considered with a global system.
105. What must be taken into account when importing an additional language into an SAP system?
A After the actual import of the language package, language-dependent texts from Support Packages that
have already been imported must also be imported using transaction SMLT.
B The Support Packages that had been imported into the SAP system at the time of the language import must be
completely imported again using transaction SPAM.
C Languages that are not completely translated require a supplementation language to fill translation gaps.
D All available languages are already available in the database of the SAP system and you must now use transaction
SMLT to make them known in the system.
E You can use transaction SMLT to perform the language import in parallel using multiple R3trans processes.
Answer: A, C, E
You can use transaction SMLT to import additional languages with language-dependent texts into an SAP system.
You do not need to re-import Support Packages using transaction SPAM; the Support Packages are handled using
transaction SMLT.
106. Which statements are correct with regard to code pages? Choose the correct answer(s).
A Every language requires a separate, individual code page.
B Multiple code pages can be operated simultaneously on an instance in one client in an SAP system.
C With Unicode, all characters that are relevant for business can be mapped in one single code page. MDMP is then
no longer required.
D During an upgrade from SAP R/3 4.x to SAP Web AS 6.20/SAP R/3 Enterprise, an SAP R/3 system is
automatically converted to Unicode. This is known as Unicode migration (Unicode Switch Upgrade).
E With MDMP, one character is basically represented by one byte.
F Unicode uses two bytes to represent every character.
Answer: B, C
If you use MDMP, multiple code pages can be operated simultaneously in one instance of an SAP system. If you use
Unicode, characters are stored with a length of up to four characters.
Notes: External Communication
sapconnect - report - RSCONN01
The following roles are required to administer SAPconnect:
SAP_BC_SRV_COM_ADMIN and SAP_BC_SRV_GBT_ADMI. An RFC user that can receive messages requires a profile
with authorization for S_A.SCON.
for receiving mails - icm/server_port_<*> = PROT=SMTP,PORT=<port> --> must be set

customising for sap telephony - SPHB - also perform consistency check
create work centers - SPHA, SPHD
Sites create directories in the navigation tree of the SAPphone system administration, to which the telephony
servers are assigned.
To allow communication between the SAP system and the telephone system, a telephony server must have been
created and be operational.
Telephony functions can only be executed once the work center has been created.
107. Which of the following statements regarding SAPconnect are correct? Choose the correct answer(s).
A As of SAPWeb AS 6.10, a Microsoft Exchange Infrastructure must be set up outside the SAP system to be able to
send mail from SAP systems.
B It is not possible to connect the UNIX-based sendmail to SAP systems.
C SAPconnect allows you to send mail both by RFC and the SMTP plug-in of the SAP Web AS.
D SAPconnect is configured cross-client.
E A send process automatically runs periodically in every SAP system after the system installation.
Answer: C
There are two ways to send mail in SAPconnect: by RFC connection or using the SMTP plug-in of the SAP Web AS.
The other statements are incorrect.
108. The connection of a mail server to an SAP system to send e-mails using SMTP from the SAP system runs
through an SAPconnect node. Determine whether this statement is true or false.
True
False
Answer: True
To configure a send process for SMTP in the SAP system, you must, among other things, also have configured and
activated an SMTP node using transaction SCOT (SAPconnect).
109. How can the SAP system be connected with telephone equipment in the context of SAPphone?
A Using a Computer Telephony Integration (CTI) gateway from a third-party vendor
B The connection is made automatically using Customizing settings in the SAP system
C Using the Telephony API (TAPI) interface with a TAPI Service Provider and a SAPphone Server
D Using none of the above
Answer: A, C
The connection between the SAP system and the telephone equipment is made using a CTI server. This can either
be implemented using a CTI gateway from a third-party vendor or the TAPI interface in connection with a
SAPphone server.
Notes: eCATT
catt & ecatt not recommended in production environment
tcode SECATT - migrate CATT test case to eCATT

test script, test data containers, system data container & test configuration
when using a trust relationship - it is necessary that the same user name exists in both the systems. the user must
have authorisations for S_RFCACL object in the target system
eCATT can test target systems of Release 4.6C or higher, but runs only on the Web Application Server Release 6.20
or higher procedure (SAP Note 519858)
A test script consists of a range of commands that control the process flow of the test (which transactions are
executed in which sequence on which systems).
Test data containers consist of reusable data records that can be transferred to the test script. Unlike CATT, with
which the test data belonged to a test script, with eCATT, the test data containers are stored separately from the
script. This means that there is a greater degree of reusability with regard to the test data containers.
A system data container consists of a list of systems (with associated RFC destinations) that are required during the
execution of a test script.
Finally, the test configuration links a test script (what is to be done?) with the data from one or more test data
containers (which data is to be used?) and the system landscape defined in a system data container (where are the
tests to be performed?).
Make the appropriate settings to the clients in which you want to use eCATT as follows:
Start transaction SM31
Enter table T000 and choose Maintain. You will be warned that the table is client-independent - ignore this
warning.
Double-click the relevant client in the list.
Under Restrictions, choose a setting that allows CATT/eCATT in that client. For full information, refer to the eCATT
Security Guide, available from http://service.sap.com/eCATT.
Patch the target Systems as follows:
Check that users have the appropriate authorizations.
For more information, see the eCATT Security Guide
Install the latest 620 SAP GUI for Windows (with the SAP GUI Scripting component) on machines using external tools
or using the SAPGUI command.
Enable scripting (if required).
In transaction RZ11 set sapgui/user_scripting to TRUE (see note 480149).
At the user's front-end machine, the 620 SAP GUI for Windows must have been installed. Choose Customizing of
local layout -> Options... -> Scripting, and then select Enable Scripting.
Install certified external tools (if required) on the local machine of the user. For information about certified tools,
refer to the SAP Partner
Directory (http://www.sap.com/partners).
Use function module SET_EXTERNAL_TOOL to make the required entries in the customizing table ECCUST_ET.
In transaction SE38, run the program ECATT_GENERATE_ET_USER to create the service user required for
communication with the external tool.
Create RFC destinations for target systems.
A test script consists of - attributes, parameters, commands
Questions & Answers: eCATT
110. Which possibilities does eCATT provide? Choose the correct answer(s).
A Performing centrally stored test cases on different target systems
B Testing SAP transactions regardless of whether they use the Control Framework or not
C Testing transactions in the SAP GUI for HTML and testing Business Server Pages
D Testing function modules
Answer: A, B, C, D
You can use eCATT to perform cross-system tests. Unlike CATT, you can also test function modules and SAP
transactions that use the Control Framework. It is also possible to test applications in the SAP GUI for HTML or BSPs
and JSPs using an interface to external test tools.
111. There is a fixed connection between the test data required for an eCATT test case and the test script, and the
data cannot be used without this fixed test script. Determine whether this statement is true or false.
True
False
Answer: False
In eCATT, the test data used for the test is stored independently of a fixed test script in test data containers. This
allows the same test data to be reused in different test cases with different test scripts.
112. Which statements about the relationship between system data containers and test scripts are true?
A A system data container is always associated with only one test script.
B Multiple test scripts can access the same system data container.
C Each entry in the system data container must also appear in the test script at least once.
D Only systems that are entered in an associated system data container can be accessed from a test script.
Answer: B, D
Both test scripts and system data containers are defined in the context of a test configuration. The test
configuration links the initially independent objects system data container and test script. This has the advantage
that system data containers can be reused; that is, multiple test scripts can access the same system data
container. System data containers can contain more system entries than are required in the test script; however,
only systems that are defined in the system data containers can be accessed from test scripts.
4. Which eCATT driver is suitable for recording and running SAP transactions that run in SAP GUI for Windows?
A SAPGUI
B FUN
C TCD
D WINGUI
Answer: A, C
You can use the SAPGUI and TCD drivers for recording and running SAP transactions that run in the SAP GUI for
Windows (or in the SAP GUI for Java). If the transaction does not use the Control Framework, we recommend that
you use TCD; otherwise, the SAPGUI driver is required. The FUN driver is used for testing function modules.
WINGUI is an imaginary name in this context.
Notes: Central User Administration (CUA)
Data exchange in an ALE-integrated system is performed by exchanging intermediate documents (IDocs) by Remote
Function Call (RFC ).
on central system - logical client - SIDCLNT100 - CUA_SID user to be created for central & child systems with roles
Z_SAP_BC_USR_CUA_SETUP_CENTRAL
Z_SAP_BC_USR_CUA_CENTRAL
Z_SAP_BC_USR_CUA_CENTRAL_BDIST
on child system - logical client - SIDCLNT200 - CUA_SID user to be created for central & child systems with roles
Z_SAP_BC_USR_CUA_SETUP_CLIENT
Z_SAP_BC_USR_CUA_CLIENT
Once you have successfully activated the CUA (using tcode SCUA), you will no longer be able to create users in the
linked child systems using transaction SU01
SCUM - tcode - determine the system in which the administration of the field content can be performed.
Global
You can only maintain data in the central system. The data is then automatically distributed to the child systems.
The corresponding fields cannot be changed there; they can only be displayed.
Local
You can only maintain data in the child system. Changes are not distributed to other systems.
Proposal
You have maintained a default value in the central system that is automatically distributed to the child systems
when you create a user. After distribution, the data is only maintained locally, and is no longer distributed, if you
change it in the central or child system.
Redistribution
You can maintain the data both centrally and locally. Every time that the data is changed, the change is distributed
back to the central system, and is then forwarded from there to the other child systems.
Everywhere
This option is only available on the Lock tab page. You can maintain the lock data both centrally and locally.
However, only the changes made to the data in the central system are distributed to the other systems. Local
changes in child systems are not distributed.
You can use transaction SUCOMP to administer company address data.
You can use transaction SCUG in the central system to perform the synchronization activities between the central
system and the child systems (starting with company add. data)
You can use transaction SCUL to distribute individual user master records to the child systems again (for large no.
of users use report RSCCUSND)
RSDELCUA - to delete child system from CUA - after this delete message type CCLONE & USERCLONE in WE20 for
the child system
LDAP
sm59 - maintain RFC LDAP_....., LDAP connector - maintain LDAP connector, maintain system user, maintain
connection data
ldap_rfc.exe - os level process
LDAPMAP - tcode - to map the fields (mapping indiacators), direction (synchronisation indicators)
RSLDAPSCHEMAEXT - oprtional schema extenstion report
RSLDAPSYNC_USER - perform synchronisation
LDAPLOG - read log or SLG1 (with object LDAPSYNC & sub object USER)
SLG2 - delete log
113. Which of the following statements with regard to Central User Administration are correct?
A CUA can be implemented as of SAP R/3 4.0B.
B Only SAP R/3 systems can be linked to a CUA.
C CUA uses an ALE setup.
D The clients linked by CUA are called logical systems.
E The clients linked with the CUA are known as the central system and child systems.
Answer: C, D, E
The CUA clients linked by ALE are known as the central system and child systems, and as logical systems. You can
connect SAP systems to a CUA if they have at least SAP Basis 4.5B or an SAP Web AS.
114. Which of the following statements about logical systems are correct? Choose the correct answer(s).
A Logical systems are defined cross-client.
B The IDs of logical systems can be assigned to clients.
C The naming convention for logical systems is LOGSYS###, where ### corresponds to a client ID.
D Multiple logical system IDs can be assigned to a client.
E In the context of a CUA, the clients involved are addressed as logical systems.
Answer: A, B, E
The table that contains the IDs of the logical systems is a cross-client table. Each ID is assigned to exactly one
client, and the recommendation for the naming convention is <SID>CLNT###. The clients involved in a CUA require
a unique assignment to a logical system.
115. Which of the following statements about the required RFC connections in a CUA are correct?
A The RFC connections must be specified entirely in uppercase letters and must be identical to the name of the
addressed logical system.
B The user in the RFC connection must be a dialog user.
C An RFC connection from the child system to itself is required.
D An RFC connection from the central system to itself is required.
E Certain roles for the communication users are required only during CUA setup, and can then be removed from
the relevant user master records.
Answer: A, D, E
The names assigned to the RFC connections used must be identical to the names of the logical systems, that is,
also in uppercase letters. The user behind the RFC connection should be of the type Communication. The central
system requires an RFC connection to itself. The communication users require a number of authorizations only to
create the CUA; the corresponding roles can be removed from
the user master records after the setting up of the CUA is completed
116. With which methods is it possible to create users in child systems in the context of an active CUA?
A In the child system with transaction SU01, Systems tab page
B In the central system with transaction SU01, Systems tab page.
C In the central system with transaction PFCG
D In the child system with transaction PFCG
E In the central system with transaction SU01, Roles tab page
Answer: B, E
If you are using a CUA, you can only create users in child systems using transaction SU01 in the central system. The
creation of users is possible using the Systems, Roles, and Profiles tab pages.
117. Directory services can only be used as a repository for information about users. Determine whether this
statement is true or false.
True
False
Answer: False
Thanks to flexible data model, data about any objects (such as hardware resources or documents) can be stored in
directory services although their use for user information is particularly widespread.
118. Which prerequisites must be fulfilled on the SAP side to use an SAP Web AS with a directory server?
A Host Name and Port Number of the directory server are maintained under Connection Data.
B In user maintenance (transaction SU01), there is a user of type System, that has read and write authorization for
the directory server.
C The operating system program ldap_rfc is running on the host, on which the Directory Server is running.
D The names of the RFC destination and the associated Connector definition are identical.
Answer: A, D
In the SAP system, the RFC destination used and the LDAP Connector must be maintained with the same name (in
uppercase letters). The operating system program ldap_rfc can then be started on the selected application server
of the SAP system while the directory server(s) addressed can run on remote servers (without ldap_rfc).
Additional Customizing includes the definition of a system user and the connection data, including the host name
and port number of the directory server.
The LDAP system user is stored in Customizing for the directory service connection and has nothing to do with the
SAP users maintained in transaction SU01.
119. During a synchronization process, data can be simultaneously imported and exported for a user.
True
False
Answer: True
The synchronization indicators do not need to be identical for all mappings. It is therefore entirely possible that,
for example, SAP-specific data (such as role assignments) is exported during a synchronization process, while other
data (such as a fax number) is imported.

A client in an SAP system is a self-contained unit in commercial, organizational, and technical terms. A client has
its own user master data and set of table key ranges.
167. If the system change options are set to not modifiable and in the client change options allow the changing of
repository objects, you can not change repository objects from within this client.
Answer: True
If the system change options are set to not modifiable and in the client change options allow the changing of
repository objects, you can not change repository objects from within this client.
Notes: Transports
1 transport group == 1 transport directory
config transport domain - domain controller - transport routes - qa approval procedure
each dev/integ system has a consolidation route assigned as the standard transport layer
for training additional layer : ZTRN
QA approval procedure - to be approved at QA (define QA system and define QA approval procedure)
transport target group - one group can point to multiple systems
transport between different domains is possible using: domain links & external systems
168. Which statements concerning transport routes are correct

A SAP distinguishes between consolidation routes and delivery routes
B SAP distinguishes between export routes and import routes
C If you want to export change requests from an SAP system, there needs to be at least one consolidation route
starting from this system.
D If you want to export change requests from an SAP system, there needs to be at least one export route starting
from this system
E If you want to export change requests from an SAP system, there needs to be at least one delivery route starting
from this system
Answer: A, C
SAP distinguishes between consolidation routes and delivery routes. A consolidation route is used as an export /
import route, i.e. you export change requests from the source system and import them into the following system.
A delivery route means "another import" i.e. there is no export from the source system of the delivery route.
169. Which statements are correct
A A transport domain consists of SAP systems sharing the same transport directory.
B A transport group consists of SAP systems sharing the same transport directory.
C A system landscape consists of SAP systems sharing the same transport directory.
D You can add additional system to a transport domain by logging on to any system of the domain.
E Additional systems can be included into the domain only from the transport domain controller system.
Answer: B, E
A transport domain consists of SAP Systems that are administered centrally with respect to TMS. Certain
administrative tasks (as accepting other systems in the domain) can only be done in the transport domain
controller system. A system landscape consists of SAP Systems that are linked by transport routes. A transport
group consists of SAP Systems sharing the same transport directory
170. How can you achieve that a change request containing only one ABAP program from the DEV system will be
imported into several clients of the QAS system?
A By using client dependent transport routes
B By using transport target groups
C By defining different consolidation routes pointing from the DEV system to the QAS system
D It is impossible to achieve this with TMS.
Answer: A, B
As the ABAP program points (via an assignment to a certain package) to a specific transport layer, there is no use
to solve this problem by creating different consolidation routes from DEV to QAS. If you use transport target groups
and client-dependent transport routes, however, you can achieve that the change request will be ready for import
into different clients of the QAS system.
Notes:
customising tools - img, transport organizer, tms
change request - tasks
scc1 - copy change request from one client to another client in the same system - only client specific customizing
(copy a change request or task or change req. with task)
customising change req: customising data, applcation data, user master data
workbench change req: global customising, cross-client cust. obj, r3 repository objects
trsnt organiser - displays change req, displayes global transport information, provide access to special tools
register developers to user ABAP workbench, Register SAP objects to be modified using SSCR
obj --- include --- package / dev class, person responsible, original system, original language
pkg is assigned to transport layer - if the transport layer is valid consolidation route - the obj of tht package are
transported to consolidation system
sap objects modified in the customer integration system follow the SAP consolidation route
SPAU and SPDD
When you apply a package, a large number of objects are changed.
If you have applied any OSS notes to objects in your system, the hot package may overwrite these objects.
SPDD is used to identify dictionary objects and SPAU (repository objects), will identify any objects where the hot
package is overwriting changes you have made through OSS notes.
changes to original obj are saved to tasks of type dev / correction
changes to copies are saved to tasks of type repair
the package of a repository obj. determines if a change req. is local or transportable
orig. objects may be modified by all developers assigned to the workbench change req.
versions of SAP repository obj. can be compared / restored
authorisations for change management --> s_cts_all, s_cts_projec, s_cts_develo, s_cts_show
171. Select the correct descriptions of what the IMG is or does:

A Provides customizing transactions.
B Is where all Customizing activities must be performed.
C Gives you offline access to all the information required to Customize an SAP System.
D Offers project management tools.
Answer: A, D
The IMG gives you online access to all the information required to customize an SAP System. Customizing can also
be performed without the IMG, of course.
172. It is possible to change a project IMG through regeneration.
True
False
Answer: True

requests
B Project member should always create there change request by there own
C The project members are assigned to the change request by creation of tasks for each project member inside the
change request
D Project members are recording changes in their own task (assigned by the project manager or person responsible
for the transport)
Answer: A, C, D
175. What should be done before releasing a change request in the development system?
A Unit testing
B Release of all tasks inside the change request
C Deletion of tasks inside the change request
D Information of system administration about the released tasks
Answer: A, B
Before a change request in the development system is released, first the unit testing in the development system
has to be successfully finished. Second, all tasks that are contained in the change request have to be released by
the customizers. Otherwise it is not possible to release the change request by the project leader.
176. Client-independent customizing objects must be saved to change requests of type _______________.
Answer: workbench

type used
SAP GUI for HTML requires about 3 MB for each session
SAP Memory - local (each workprocess has) + shared memory = virtual memory (physical + paging)
shared memory - is associated with all the processes of 1 instance (contains sap buffers, extended memory, roll
memory)
extended memory contains objects / data associated with unfinished transactions
heap memory - contains same type of data as extended memory, is used when extended is full, is allocated and
released on demand
roll memory (roll buffer) - contains the intial part of user contexts
paging buffer - contains ABAP objects such as extracts, context independent objects such as exports
For extended memory: Max use is more than 80% of In memory (Extended Memory only exists in memory).
For roll area: Max use is more 80% of In memory (part of the roll data might be stored on file level)
Main Reasons for using Extended Memory
Fast context switches are needed in SAP systems, because many users share few work processes
SAP transactions consist usually of more than one step/screen
Fast context switches are not possible by storing huge amounts of transactional data in the roll/paging area
Extended Memory is accessed through pointers, therefore fast context switches are possible
on unix - heap memory is not released
when the limit set in abap/heaplimit is reached the work process is flagged for automatic restart
java memory management
young generation -XX:NewSize -XX:MaxNewSize
permanent generation -XX:PermSize -XX:MaxPermSize
The database should get about 20% of the total physical memory of all servers used for the individual SAP system.
SAP buffers should be considered with a total size of 1000 MB per instance.
Per work process, you should consider 50 MB to 60 MB of memory, depending on the SAP release and operating
system.
You should provide 15 MB to 20 MB of extended memory per concurrent user in the SAP system.
The initial (after startup) usage of virtual memory for an SAP instance should not exceed two times the size of
physical memory (assuming that the SAP instance is the only significant consumer of memory on this server).
Swap size (UNIX) should be three times physical memory, or at least 5 GB (especially if SAP Web AS Java is being
used); 64-bit systems should have 20 GB swap space available.
Page size (Windows OS) should be four times the physical memory.
The database should be assigned between 10% and 30% of the total CPU power of your entire SAP system.
Update processing might use between 10% and 20% of the total CPU power of your entire SAP system.

Notes: Table Buffering
Makes data access many times faster
Reduces the load on the database
Reduces the load on the network and on CPU
The work process is freed more quickly for other work
Fully buffered: During the first access to this table, all table content is copied to the table buffer on the SAP
instance. For client-dependent tables only the client-specific data is buffered.
Generic area buffered: You set the number of key fields for the table used to determine the data to buffered
during access. This is also known as generic key buffering.
Single record buffered: Each individual record accessed will be buffered on the SAP instance.
locally buffered content is invalidated when changed

SELECT ... BYPASSING BUFFER
SELECT FOR UPDATE
SELECT DISTINCT

For tables that are delivered by SAP as Buffering not allowed, do not activate any type of buffering.
Do not activate buffering for tables that contain data that must not be read/evaluated when outdated.
Do not activate buffering for tables holding transaction data.

Notes: Data Archiving
data archiving is NOT
Reorganization
Backup / Restore
Document storage (usually using SAP ArchiveLink)
Deletion of test data
Why data archiving...
Improve response times or ensure good response times
Reduce costs for database administration
Reduce system downtime for software upgrades, recoveries, and (offline) data backups
Legal requirements and business requirements must be taken into account here, such as:
Country-specific retention rules
Data must be available to auditors
Potential reusability of data
>> General Customizing (Basis Customizing)
Defining logical path and file names (transaction FILE)
>> Cross-archiving object Customizing
Define the server group for background processing
>> Archiving Object-Specific Customizing
Size of an archive file
Settings for the delete program
>>Tools for Monitoring an Archive Run
Background processing tools
Job logs
Spool lists (if created)
System monitoring tools

220. Every archiving object in the SAP system is connected 1:1 with the content of a single database table.
True
False
Answer: False
Different business objects could belong to each archiving object in the SAP system. The data for these business
objects could, in turn, be distributed across multiple database tables.
specific archiving object?
Answer: C
The name of the archive files is determined at runtime by settings in the archiving object-specific Customizing
(assignment of a logical file name for the specific archiving object) and in the Basis Customizing (assignment of a
physical file name to a logical file name in the Basis Customizing and the assignment of a logical file name). No
specifications about the name of the archive file are made in cross-object Customizing. The exact time of the
archiving run can appear in the name of the archiving file using a parameter, but the name is generally not
determined by this alone.
222. After data has been archived from the SAP system and deleted from the SAP systems database, it is no longer
possible to access this data with read accesses.
True
False
Answer: False
It is still possible to access data to read it after it has been stored in the archive and deleted from the SAP
systems database. Depending on the archiving object concerned, the user can choose from a number of views
(such as a technical view and a business view).

You can only maintain data in the central system. The data is then automatically distributed to the child systems.
The corresponding fields cannot be changed there; they can only be displayed.
Local
You can only maintain data in the child system. Changes are not distributed to other systems.
Proposal
You have maintained a default value in the central system that is automatically distributed to the child systems
when you create a user. After distribution, the data is only maintained locally, and is no longer distributed, if you
change it in the central or child system.
Redistribution
You can maintain the data both centrally and locally. Every time that the data is changed, the change is distributed
back to the central system, and is then forwarded from there to the other child systems.
Everywhere
This option is only available on the Lock tab page. You can maintain the lock data both centrally and locally.
However, only the changes made to the data in the central system are distributed to the other systems. Local
changes in child systems are not distributed.

A CUA can be implemented as of SAP R/3 4.0B.
B Only SAP R/3 systems can be linked to CUA.
E The clients linked with the CUA are known as the central system and child systems.
Answer: C, D, E
The CUA clients linked by ALE are known as the central system and child systems, and as logical systems.
You can connect SAP systems to CUA if they have at least SAP Basis 4.5B or an SAP Web AS.
228. Which of the following statements about logical systems are correct?
Answer: A, B, E
The table that contains the IDs of the logical systems is a cross-client table. Each ID is assigned to exactly one
client, and the recommendation for the naming convention is <SID>CLNT###. The clients involved in CUA require a
unique assignment to a logical system.
229. Which of the following statements about the required RFC connections in CUA are correct?
A The RFC connections must be specified entirely in uppercase letters and must be identical to the name of the
addressed logical system.
E Certain roles for the communication users are required only during CUA setup, and can then be removed from
the relevant user master records.
Answer: A, D, E
The names assigned to the RFC connections used must be identical to the names of the logical systems, that is,
also in uppercase letters. The user behind the RFC connection should be of the type System. The central system
requires an RFC connection to itself. The communication users require a number of authorizations only to create
the CUA; the corresponding roles can be removed from the user master records after the setting up of the CUA is
completed.
230. With which methods is it possible to create users in child systems in the context of active CUA?
A In the child system with transaction SU01, Systems tab page
B In the central system with transaction SU01, Systems tab page.
C In the central system with transaction PFCG
D In the child system with transaction PFCG
E In the central system with transaction SU01, Roles tab page
Answer: B, E
If you are using CUA, you can only create users in child systems using transaction SU01 in the central system. The
creation of users is possible using the Systems, Roles, and Profiles tab pages.
231. Directory services can only be used as a repository for information about users.
True
False
Answer: False
Thanks to a flexible data model, data about any objects (such as hardware resources or documents) can be stored
in directory services although their use for user information is particularly helpful.
B In user maintenance (transaction SU01), there is a user of type System that has read and write authorization for
C The operating system program ldap_rfc runs on the same host as the directory server.
Answer: A, D
In the SAP system, the RFC destination used and the LDAP Connector must be maintained with the same name (in
uppercase letters). The operating system program ldap_rfc can then be started on the selected application server
of the SAP system while the directory server(s) addressed can run on remote servers (without ldap_rfc).
Additional Customizing settings include the definition of a system user and the connection data, as well as the host
name and port number of the directory server.
The LDAP system user is stored in Customizing for the directory service connection and has nothing to do with the
SAP users maintained in transaction SU01.
233. During a synchronization process, data can be simultaneously imported and exported for a user.
True
False
Answer: True
The synchronization indicators do not need to be identical for all mappings. It is possible, therefore, that SAPspecific data (such as role assignments), for example, is exported during a synchronization process, while other
data (such as a fax number) is imported.
Notes: Authorizations
Authorization objects allow complex checks that involve multiple conditions that allow a user to perform an
action. The conditions are specified in authorization fields for the authorization objects and are AND linked for the
check. Authorization objects and their fields have descriptive and technical names. An authorization is always
associated with exactly one authorization object and contains the value for the fields for the authorization object.
An authorization is a permission to perform a certain action in the SAP system. The action is defined on the basis
of the values for the individual fields of an authorization object.
Authorization, profile, and role changes become active the next time the user logs on. If the instructions in SAP
Note 452904 are followed
auth/new_buffering=4 and the relevant Support Packages are imported), changes take effect immediately
All authorizations are permissions. There are no authorizations for prohibiting. Everything that is not explicitly
allowed is forbidden.
Role maintenance automatically creates the authorizations that are associated with the transactions specified in
the menu tree. However, all authorization values must be manually checked and adjusted if required in
accordance with the actual requirements and authorities. The system administrator is responsible for this task,
together with the appropriate user department.
During a complete comparison, obsolete profiles are also removed. In expert mode, users can be explicitly
excluded from the comparison. For this reason, no green traffic lights are displayed in role maintenance after this.

login parameters
You can define additional password restrictions in table USR40.
The parameters login/password_max_new_valid and login/password_max_reset_valid specify the length of time
for which an initial password or a password reset by an administrator is valid.
login/failed_user_auto_unlock= 0 - auto unlock all users at midnight
234. How are authorizations assigned to a user?
A Users are assigned authorizations using profiles.
B Users are assigned authorizations using roles.
C Users are assigned authorizations using user names.
D Users are assigned authorizations using a Certification Authority.
Answer: A, B
Authorizations are combined into profiles. The roles assigned to users contain profiles with appropriate
authorizations for the role. Authorizations are not assigned using user names or a CA.
235. The SAP authorization concept is a positive concept because ...
A every user automatically receives all authorizations.
B authorizations must be explicitly assigned.
C the range of features of the authorization check is so large.
D the developers programmed it efficiently.
Answer: B
SAP uses a positive authorization concept. This means that everything that is not explicitly allowed is
automatically forbidden.

Ask him/her to describe how SAP handles Memory Management?
ST02 / ST03 In general via table buffers, you could go into the whole Work Process, roll in, roll out, heap (private)
memory, etc. however just as a Unix or DBA admin would know, is you look this up when needed for the exact
specifics.
Ask him/her to describe where they would look at the buffer statistics, and what steps they would use to
adjust them?
ST02, RZ10
Ask him/her to describe how to setup a printer in SAP or where they would look to research why a user/users
can not print?
SPAD, SP01, SM50, SU01
==============
Keep the interview to 3 general areas:
DB (what is the directory structure/ where are the files kept oracle alerts, init.ora, redo logs, archive logs, etc.;
possibly some basics stuff like what to do "high level" when the archive directory fills up, etc. Keep this minimal as
from a SAP basis admin point of view Oracle is just a big giant bit bucket and SAP can handle to the daily
monitoring and maintenance itself.
OS (what is the directory structure (what is NFS mounted and why / where are the message files contained for the
OS error log; basic commands for the OS eg. Unix, mv, cp, ls, grep, ps-ef, df-k, etc. That is pretty much all the SAP
basis admin will need to know. Client/Server architecture.
SAP (what is the directory structure / where are files located ie. profiles - start, instance, default (what are they
and what is the order of precendence) start is for statup only, instance is the first to be read then the default and
if a given parameter cannot be found in the instance or then the default then the internal standard is taken from
RZ10 setting.
You can ask them to ran Transaction codes to you. Menus constanly change so go with T-codes. He should have a
good knowledge of the following areas; transports, user / print / spool / batch management, monitoring, client
tools and copies, support packages, kernel patches, workload analysis, Roles and Security, etc.
The standard list of t-codes is pretty much
SM50, SM51, SM66, SM12, SM13, SM21, DB01, DB02, DB13, ST01, ST02, ST03, ST04, ST05, ST06, SU01, SUIM, PFCG,
SCC4, SE01, SE09, SE10, SPAM, SM35, SM36, SM37, SPAD, SP01 SCC3, SCCL, SCC9 this are pretty much you heavy

I would ask in general how he would troubleshoot the following:
- User cannot connect to SAP
check SAP logon settings, ping the host, check message server, check dispatcher, etc.
