SAP R/3 4.7 is based on the 3-tier architecture.

Some of the differences ABAP Module side:
1. For installing ECC 6.0 you require a solution manager key. With out solution manager key you cannot install ECC6.0.
ECC 6.0 is called net weaver component with ABAP+JAVA stack
For installing 4.6 you don't require solution manager key. I t only having ABAP stack.
2. ECC6.0 supports UNCODE & 4.6C supports NONUNICODE.

10. In terms of ABAP some function modules are obsolete in 4.7. e.g. WS_UPLOAD, WS_DOWNLOAD etc. You can find the list of
obsolete FMs in the table RODIR. These need to be replaced in the ECC System.
11. Also ECC is very strict in case of EPC Errors. You need to check the EPC and remove the call function interface errors where
it says SLIN observes catching of a runtime error. These might work with no issues in 4.7 but will short dump in ECC.
Upgrade Project
The upgrade strategy usually consists of several stages that progressively expand functionality, increase business value, and
prepare the organization for the transition to SOA while minimizing risk.
This process typically consists of three distinct phases:
- the technical upgrade: This initial phase involves a purely technological upgrade whose major goal is the implementation
of the new software release as the foundation for all subsequent improvements. The impact of this phase on your
business and business processes is very limited.
- functional enhancements: this phase focuses on increasing business value by implementing the most valuable functions
of the new software and laying the foundation for future business innovation and improved process automation. During
this phase, SAP software modifications and custom developments are replaced with (new) standard SAP software
functions. This phase can be used to activate new business functions provided by SAP enhancement packages.
- strategic enhancements: Phase three involves implementing new and optimized business processes that fully exploit
new SAP ERP functions and enable SOA.
