Details on extended Material Number
• With SAP S/4HANA 1511, the maximum length for Material Number was extended from 18 to 40
characters.
• All external interfaces (BAPIs, IDOCs, RFCs) containing Material Number still have the usual technical
field MATNR with length 18. This is for compatibility reasons.
• Additionally, all these interfaces have been enhanced by a new field: MATNR_LONG.
• For released WebServices, adding a new field was not necessary as these services are already
compatible with new length
© 2015 SAP SE or an SAP affiliate company. All rights reserved.
Public
19
Material Number Customizing options for Customers
• Customers can run their SAP System in two modes:
• “default mode”, no change, Material Number stays with 18 characters:
Field MATNR is filled and recognized as usual, but also MATNR_LONG is filled.
 Material Number > 18 CHAR in MATNR_LONG is not accepted ( result: short dump in SAP)
• “extended mode”: Material Number can hold up to 40 characters:
Only field MATNR_LONG is filled and recognized. The shorter version becomes obsolete.
 Material Number in field MATNR is not accepted ( result: short dump in SAP)

Mandatory changes for integrated solutions
 Solutions for S/4HANA on-premise must be changed, and read/fill only the new field MATNR_LONG.
This will be checked explicitly during the certification test drive.
 This is enough to make sure, that the solutions can support both the “default” and the “extended” mode
 It’s not necessary to support both fields, MATNR and MATNR_LONG
Solutions integrating with S/4HANA by using SAP APIs, that do not contain Material Number, might
not need to be changed.
However, also these solutions need to be tested / certified explicitly for S/4HANA.

Adjust ABAP code for HANA:
What needs to be done?
Considerations to adjust ABAP code to run on HANA:
• SELECT statements, that need ordered results
• Pool Tables, Cluster Tables
• Indices
• Some rare issues
Find more detailed information in SCN:
• Read the blog: Mandatory Steps to Adapt ABAP Code for SAP HANA

Public
25
SELECT Statements in SAP HANA (1/2)
Why could changes be required?
 HANA follows the SQL standard. Implicit behaviors of old databases are not guaranteed by
the SQL standard
!
There is a commonly held view that SELECT statements return results implicitly sorted by
the used index.
Another commonly held view is that SELECT statements on pool / cluster tables will always
be returned sorted by primary key.
This is not guaranteed by SQL standard. The SQL standard requires an ORDER BY
statement to return result sets sorted.
Programmers may not be aware that a sorted result set is not expectable without an ORDER BY
statement. Rather they relied on the usual behavior of previous database systems. However these
systems also do not guarantee such behavior. It is simply due to their physical base. HANA will not
return result sets sorted without ORDER BY.

Public
26
SELECT Statements in SAP HANA (2/2)
Depending on your code there will be three possibilities what needs to be done.
Possibility 1 & 2
Coding doesn‘t rely on sorted results
Nothing needs to be done
Existing SELECT statements are explicitly sorted by
an ORDER BY command
Possibility 3
Code relies on sorted result sets but SELECT
statement does not contain an ORDER BY command
© 2015 SAP SE or an SAP affiliate company. All rights reserved.
TO-DO
Add an ABAP SORT, an ORDER BY
statement or change the code that
depends on the sorting.
Public
27
Pool / Cluster (PC) Tables
 Most pool tables and cluster tables of SAP NetWeaver and SAP Business Suite were migrated to
transparent tables for HANA.
 Custom code which directly accesses a table pool / table cluster leads to syntax errors.
TO-DO
 Convert your own PC tables to transparent tables.
 Get rid of direct access to table pools / table clusters.
 Don’t create PC tables in the future.

28
Indices in HANA
In most cases, SAP HANA does not require secondary indices for good
search performance.

In SAP HANA data is stored in column store by default. Basically every column is an index.

Row store should only be used in rare cases (SAP recommendation)

All existing non-unique secondary database indices on columnar tables are removed during
migration or do not get created during installation.

Unique indices stay as they represent a constraint on the table.
© 2015 SAP SE or an SAP affiliate company. All rights reserved.
Public
29
Rare Issues
DB index analysis
 Analysis of technical DB index information using function modules 'DB_EXISTS_INDEX‘,
'DD_INDEX_NAME’
 Recommendation: Get rid of DB index analysis
 Reason: Most indices are no longer needed and therefore not created in HANA
SQL Compiler error
 New OpenSQL compiler is active as of NW 7.4 SP2
 Compiler identifies syntactically wrong coding which was ignored before
 Ignoring these errors in existing coding leads to build errors or runtime errors
 Risk of having errors is low: Only 10 corrections for the whole ERP were made
SQL Compiler error: For details see SAP note 1832139 - OpenSQL runtime environment

Use SAP Code Inspector to find potential functional issues
 The Tool “SAP Code Inspector” (SCI) can scan and analyze ABAP code.
 It performs different checks on your ABAP programs/ function groups/ classes etc. You can choose which
checks should be applied.
 Code Inspector checks are provided to find the described issues regarding HANA compatibility
 The Code Inspector can only check Objects which were developed on the system where you use the Code
Inspector or in the code transport line of the system.
Check the property “Original System” in the Object Dictionary Entry.
Other Objects will be ignored by the Code Inspector, without a warning!

31
Code Inspector – Short Description (1/2)
“Search problematic statement…w/o
ORDER BY” check
 Preferred check to find code which relies on
sorted DB content
 searches for statements like READ BINARY
SEARCH, DELETE ADJACENT
DUPLICATES, … accessing unsorted DB
content
 works for transparent and pool/cluster DB
tables
© 2015 SAP SE or an SAP affiliate company. All rights reserved.
“Extended Program Check (SLIN)” check
 Find SELECT SINGLE Statements where
the result is not unambiguous because the
WHERE clause points on a non unique field
of a table
“Search DB Operations in Pool/Cluster
Tables” check
 The check finds all SQL accesses to
physical pool/cluster table
 All accesses with SQL to these tables shall
be corrected
Public
32
Code Inspector – Short Description (2/2)
“Critical Statements” check
 Find critical Statements such as Native SQL
Statements etc.
“Use of ADBC Interface” check
 Find uses of ADBC classes
 Native SQL statements called via ADBC
interface must be migrated to HANA Native
SQL or OpenSQL

SAP Tables have been put into quarantine; you can read from them

SAP Coding and Modules, that write into quarantined tables, have been
changed / deleted
SAP Objects have been changed and optimized, in an incompatible way

SAP S/4HANA, on-premise edition 1511
Introducing new integration certification scenarios
SAP S/4HANA is a new SAP product!
 Disruptive code changes
 Optimizations and reduction of aggregates and indices
 Extended Material Number, from 18 to 40 characters
Because of that SAP ICC has introduced completely new certification scenarios.
If you want to be certified for SAP S/4HANA on-premise, then you have to explicitely
(re-)certify for one of the following new integration scenarios:
