U.10 - Unicode Syntax Check

This workflow finds the custom programs on the specified Source system, and performs a syntax check for them (and all the includes they use) on the Target Unicode system. The results are stored in a Dashboard report that provides data for the Upgrade Analysis Dashboard report.

Creating RFC Destinations

Before you begin, you will need to create RFC Destinations for the Source and Target SAP systems.

Preparing the Workflow

To prepare the U.10 - Unicode Syntax Check workflow, drag its workflow template from the Templates folder into your own workspace, and modify the workflow as follows:

To specify the Current or As-Is system:

  1. Select the System 1 parameter and choose ‘Edit RFC Destination’ from its context menu to display the RFC Destination dialog.

  2. Select the RFC Destination for the system to analyze, then click ‘Save’.

To specify the New or To-Be (Unicode) system:

  1. Select the System 2 parameter and choose ‘Edit RFC Destination’ from its context menu to display the RFC Destination dialog.

  2. Select the RFC Destination for the system to analyze, then click ‘Save’.

Save the workflow using the ‘Save’ toolbar button.

Running the Workflow

To run the U.10 - Unicode Syntax Check workflow, click the 'Run' toolbar button, choose ‘Run Now’ from the diagram’s context menu, or press F5. The currently running workflow action is marked with an animated display. When the workflow execution has completed, select the Report URL dataset and choose ‘View Details’ from the context menu to display the associated Dashboard report. This URL is returned to the Run Complete Analysis workflow, and provides data for the Upgrade Analysis Dashboard report.

Dashboard Report

The Dashboard report generated by the U.10 - Unicode Syntax Check workflow pie charts showing the top N syntax errors by type, and the top N syntax errors by object. The value for N is set in the workflow’s Number of categories String parameter.

Additional Resources

The Additional Resources section of the Dashboard report includes links to the following reports:
