Dynamic Web Service and Proxy generation fail for external Schema
SAP NetWeaver 7.50 is built on Java 8. Java 8 uses the new Java API for XML Processing - JAXP 1.5, where some new properties have been introduced. One of these properties - javax.xml.XMLConstants. ACCESS_EXTERNAL_SCHEMA, interferes with the Web Services code in SAP NetWeaver 7.50 which is related with the dynamic Web Service Proxy generation. In this case, some specific WSDLs parsing fail, throwing exception that causes specific Web Service scenarios to fail. The root cause is due to an issue into the early versions of OpenJDK implementation of JAXB protocol. The issue is fixed into the newest versions of JAXB protocol implementation which is to be used in SAP NetWeaver 7.50 SP01 and later. The workaround for SAP NetWeaver AS Java 7.50 SP00 is described in SAP Note 2212028. The issue into the Java Application Server will be resolved into the newer Service Packs of SAP NetWeaver 7.50. For resolving the issue in SAP NetWeaver Developer Studio (NWDS) the need for applying SAP Note 2217399 will remain in the newer NetWeaver SPs.

Java Enterprise Applications with SAP BPM business processes do not start after AS Java upgrade
After upgrading the the SAP NetWeaver AS Java to 7.50 SP00 patch level 0 it can happen that some Java Enterprise Application (EAR) that contain SAP BPM business processes do not start. In turn this means that the SAP BPM processes that are contained in the failing EARs can’t be executed. This can affect the start of new processes as well as existing process instances. To avoid running into this problem it is strongly recommended to apply at minimum patch level 1 for Software Component J2EE-FRMW as described in SAP Note 2186799.

Clustered tables as unknown objects in ABAP Dictionary in DB02 after upgrade to 7.50 on Hana DB
If your database management system is SAP HANA, the tables DOKTL, TERMC1 , TERMC2 and TERMC3 appear in the Tables and Indexes Monitor (transaction DB02) in section "Unknown objects in ABAP Dictionary" of the missing tables/indexes diagnostics. Check in the ABAP Dictionary Maintenace (transaction SE11) whether those tables are of type "Cluster". If this is the case, you can drop those tables directly in the database. These tables are clustered after upgrade, even they have been transparent before. If such a table need to be transparent, for example, if you want to use it in EXEC SQL (planned to be used as CDS Data View) , de-cluster it according to SAP Note 2227432 after the update or upgrade. The correction is planned with an SUM SP15 patch. Please see corresponding SAP note 2155664 for further information.

Payload is always encrypted entirely when persisted in message store
If you have selected Sensitive Information for a service interface in the ES Repository, the Process Integration runtime encrypts the entire payload before persisting it in the message store and logs any access to an encrypted message of this kind. It is not possible to encrypt only a few attributes of the payload. The encryption is applied to the entire payload. This feature can only be enabled at interface level. If the interface contains multiple operations, the encryption and logging is extended to all operations. It is not possible to maintain or control the Sensitive Information check box at operation level.

Size of a single document for printing
In special cases, business applications require the creation of large PDF forms containing more than 1.000 (up to 20.000) pages. Depending on the operating system, Adobe Document Services (ADS) have a technical limitation regarding the form size. When creating large documents using ADS there are limitations with regard to the maximum number of pages: See SAP Notes 1009567 and 894389 To be able to create large PDF documents, you need to implement an application-side workaround. Workaround: Stitching bundled forms to one PDF form Further information: http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw74/helpdata/en/1f/d9bc3854564800be3a220912428288/frameset.htm

Dual Stack split at PI Upgrade to NW 7.50 SP00 not working
Link to Incident: https://support.wdf.sap.corp/sap/support/message/1570806497 The root cause of the issue is that the target host was reached but no process listens to the target port"sapgw00". This error can be caused by the usage of the wrong TCP-port (sometimes presented only by the instance number, e.g. "00") or the fact that the target server is not running at the moment.
