    Checklist of migrating SAP Business One from SQL Sever to

    A completed version of cookbook available here:


    # Procedures

    Identifying the migration path and system landscape


    1 architecture given the current version and target
    version of customers SAP Business One system

    (Optional) Upgrading the customers SAP


    2 Business One system to the relevant version
    which can be migrated as the migration path
    identified above.

    3 Installing SuSE Linux Enterprise

    4 Installing SAP HANA, and SAP Business One,


    version for SAP HANA.

    5 Migrating SAP Business One Databases from


    SQL Server to SAP HANA
    6 Upgrading the company schema with Upgrade
    Wizard

    7 Migrating the SQL query related customization


    in SAP Business One

    8 [Optional but recommended] Creating reusable HANA


    Models for analytics scenarios

    9 Migrating Crystal Reports and Dashboards

    10 Add-On Migration
    t of migrating SAP Business One from SQL Sever to SAP HANA
    Cookbook of migrating SAP Business One from SQL Server to SAP HANA
    Key factors for effort estimation

    Perform an upgrade and sanity test

    Knowledge about Linux.

    A consultant with basic Linux knowledge should be


    able to perform hardware configuration, like BiOS,
    Harddisk partition, OS installation etc in 0.5~2
    days.

    Knowledge about Linux, SAP HANA and B1H.


    This requires the consultant spend some time on
    understanding the system landscape, installation
    procedure, and preparing the download. Usually it
    varies 1~4 days for a trained consultant.

    1.The size and number of DB to be migrated


    2.Specification of SQL Server machine
    3.Specification of workstation running the
    migration tool

    The migration should be done in hours. e.g. A 40 G


    DB takes 1.5 hours to be migrated with given 16 G
    RAM SQL Server and a separate 8 G RAM migration
    workstation. Effort for migration may vary from 0.5
    day to 2 days etc
    Normal upgrade with upgarde wizard.
    0.5 days should be enough.

    1.The complexitiy of SQL related customziation


    1).SBO_SP_TransactionNotification
    2).B1 Queries (Format Search, Alerts and Report
    etc)
    2.Knowlege of SAP HANA SQL and SQLScript, plus
    semi-automatic SQL migration tool is avaialble.

    This depends on the complexity of analytics


    requirement and modeling skills.

    The number and complexity of Crystal Reports and


    Dashboards. If a Crystal Report is just using a table
    or query as datasource, then replacing the
    datasource and query with HANA.

    1.The data storage of Add-On: UDT or non-UDT like


    SQL table or external DB.
    2.Data access:
    Suported: SDK, JDBC, ODBC
    Not supported: ADO.Net, LINQ and MS EF others.
    (rewrite data access part)
    3.Direct SQL query access or not.
    4.Using specific SQL Server feature or function
    SQL Sever to SAP HANA
    e from SQL Server to SAP HANA

    This step only migrates the database from SQL Server to SAP
    HANA, no customized SQL query migrated and table
    structure upgraded. SAP provides a tool migrating the
    databases of SAP Business One from SQL Server to SAP HANA
    in each patch CD, which can be found at
    <<$B1H_Patch_CD\Packages\B1
    Analytics\Disk1\tool\migration>>. You need to follow the

    Implementing SP_SBO_TransactionNotification in SAP


    Business One, Version for SAP HANA:
    http://scn.sap.com/docs/DOC-47893

    We recommend creating HANA models first, then


    implementing the analytics requirement with HANA models.
    However, in the intial phase of the project it may be easy to
    migrate the reports and dashboard with datasource
    replacement. Then think of implementing analytics with SAP
    HANA modeling next phase. It relies on the project plan and
    client requirement.

    As above. We recommend creating models first, then using


    models in the Crystal Reports and Dashboards.

    SDK remains the same as it is for SQL version.


    -ODBC and JDBC connection string need to be updated.
    -The data access with ADO.net, LINQ and MS Entity
    Framework need to be rewrited with SDK or ODBC, JDBC
    -Direct SQL query access need to be migrated. Refer to step
    7.
    Add-On Migration Checklist
    Category Check list

    Does your 3rd party solution store data in an external DB or


    Data Storage direct SQL tables in a B1 company schema rather than UDT/UDF
    of a B1 company schema?

    Does your Add-On have direct access to the B1 company with


    ODBC/JDBC?
    Connection
    Does your 3rd party solution use such as ADO.Net, LINQ or MS
    Entity framework etc. instead of SDK for data access?

    Does your Add-On solution use a direct SQL query?


    1).DataTable.ExecuteQuery() in UI API
    2).RecordSet.DoQuery() in DI API
    Direct SQL 3). Use the ExecuteSQL command to runs SQL queries in DI Server
    4).SQL call, executesql etc in B1if/B1iSN
    5).Any other direct SQL query

    Native SQL Does your Add-On use any native SQL Server object or
    objects functions? Like views, procedures, change tracking, etc.
    Migration Checklist
    Comments

    From legal contract standing point, for B1A/B1H customers,


    SAP HANA is only allowed to be used for data storage of B1
    solution, including B1 company schema. The Add-On with external
    schema instead of UDT/UDF in B1 schema must be certified by SAP
    to use SAP HANA as database engine.
    SAP HANA support ODBC and JDBC connection. However, the
    connection string is somehow different from SQL Server.
    Currently SAP HANA doesnt support ADO.Net, LINQ and MS EF etc.
    You need to replace the data access part with SDK or direct
    ODBC/JDBC connection to SAP HANA.

    Due to the syntax differences between SQL query in SQL Server and
    SAP HANA, these queries in your Add-On solution need to be
    migrated. See the section about Migrating the SQL query related
    customization in SAP Business One.

    Need to migrate Stored Procedure into HANA procedure, SQL View


    to HANA table view or Models etc.
