Setting up and Performing the Code Inspector ChecksLocate this document in the navigation structure

You use the Code Inspector check to identify critical usages of simplified SAP objects in your customer objects.

Context

The Code Inspector checks need to be performed in the evaluation system (based on SAP NetWeaver 7.5). During the execution of this check, the Code Inspector retrieves a data model of the analyzed objects from the SAP Business Suite system (based on SAP NetWeaver < 7.5).

If you have already converted your SAP Business Suite system to the product based on SAP NetWeaver 7.5, such as SAP S/4HANA, you can also perform the check there locally.

Overview of the steps required to set up and perform the Code Inspector checks:

The code inspector checks within the context of an SAP S/4HANA conversion have to be performed in the evaluation system based on SAP NetWeaver 7.5. SAP provides content for the Simplification Database of an SAP product as a ZIP file in the SAP Service Marketplace (SMP). To add the content of the Simplification Database to your system for further analysis, you need to upload the downloaded ZIP file to your evaluation system. The Code Inspector variant defines which checks are performed during a check run. A program is provided to generate this variant from the Simplification Database. The Code Inspector enables you to analyze your customer objects for critical usages of SAP objects simplified with, for example, SAP S/4HANA. Each finding of the Code Inspector checks has to be analyzed and potentially adapted to the simplification made in SAP S/4HANA.

Procedure

  1. [Optional] In your SAP Business Suite system, implement SAP note 2270689 Information published on SAP site to install the Code Inspector Extractor.
    Note

    This step is not required if you want to execute the check in a system that is already converted to SAP S/4HANA.

  2. Downloading the Simplification Database from SAP's Service Marketplace by following SAP Note 2241080 Information published on SAP site.

    The ZIP file with the Simplification Database is stored in the selected file location.

  3. Importing the Simplification Database as a ZIP File into the evaluation system by running the program SYCM_UPLOAD_SIMPLIFIC_INFO

    The Simplification Database content is imported into the evaluation system. This information is required for the generation of the Code Inspector variant.

  4. Generating the Code Inspector Variant from the Simplification Database using the SYCM_CREATE_CI_CHECK_VARIANT ABAP program.
  5. Performing the Code Inspector Check.
  6. Analyzing the Findings of the Code Analyzer Results
