if you have any third-party executables which are working with SAP kernels then those should work with Unicode Kernels. Third Party tools are Unicode compatible?Į.g.For third party interfaces should be Unicode compatible once the system is migrated to UC.All interfaces which are communicating through RFC’s can be handled with RFC UC Flag enablement in sm59.In early phases of project setup below points should be considered well in advanceĬheck the interfaces dependency on the code pages as well with system code pages. Unicode Conversion Project Holistic view (SCP - > Unicode) However, as the conversion tools are still being improved, SAP strongly recommends you apply the newest available Support Package of your release. You must apply at least the following Support Packages for the Unicode Conversion : Minimum Support Package level (SAP Note – 551344 – Unicode Conversion Documentation) Single Code Page conversion is supported as of release SAP Web Application Server 6.20 and all higher releases. Note: – If TCPDB contains more than one entry then the system is an MDMP system. For the SCP system., there will be one code page installed e.g. How to find which code page installed in your system – You can get the information of installed code-pages from the table ‘ TCPDB – Code page used in this database’ via se16. Here focus of this blog on Unicode conversion from single code page Non-Unicode (NUC) SAP systems to Unicode system

For more details of MDMP support refer SAP Note 79991 – Multi-Language and Unicode support of SAP applications MDMP will no longer be (fully) supported from SAP ERP 6.0 onwards.

MDMP (Multi Display Multi Processing) (Rel 3.1I) – multiple code pages in one system.

Unicode does have different encoding formats like UTF-8, UTF-16 & UTF -32. This is an international encoding standard for use with different languages and scripts, by which each letter, digit, or symbol is assigned a unique numeric value that applies across different platforms and programs.

Unicode is superset of existing character sets.

But due to globalizations, universal code page is required to support all characters of all languages. In a computer system, one code page can be supported in clean manner.
