Difference between Business Analyst SAP SD and SAP SD consultant

Hi friends
I need openion about what is difference between Business Analyst SAP SD and SAP SD consultant.
Raj

Both the roles are more likely the same, In consulting companies like IBM, Deloitte , TCS and others SAP functional anlayst is a more popular term but if you work directly with a SAP client - SAP Business Analyst is what they refer to a functional anlayst. Most of the responsibilities are same but they are some roles which require more of ANALYST person who can gather requirements, GAP Analysis, IS - TO BE and etc and less of configuration or customization in SAP therefore they sometimes call it SAP Business Analyst but in both cases the configuration knowledge and experience about specific modules is required.
Thanks

  • Difference between business process, sales process and order process

    what is the difference between business process, sales process and order process?

    Dear Gopala,
    business process is a general definition of the process which you have:
    for example, you get an order, you have no goods, but you can produce them, you start an assambly processing, the production order will be created, then the goods will be prepatred, then the delivery will be created, the goods issue booked then your customer gets thwe goods and send the delivery confirmation, you create an invoice etc.etc.
    sales process is a part of  a business process.
    Sales process shows how you sell the goods, there are different sales document  categories to do this: sales orders, contracts, scheduling agreements etc.
    order process is only one of possibilities of the sales process.
    Order process is used if you get really a one-time (or at lease not on a regular basis many times) the simple orders where your customer says what goods he would like to receive and when. Then you create a sales order (in dialog transaction VA01) and can create a delivery. There are different types of sales orders in the standard. The customizing of sales order types is available under the transaction VOV8.
    I hope, this info help you a little bit further to understand SD design.
    Kind regards,

  • Difference between using the Enterprise Portal and SAP GUI

    Hi Gurus,
    Could one of you please send me a document that lists the differences between the Enterprise Portal and SAP GUI?
    thanks in advance

    Hi,
    For groups, managedBy is an administrative convenience to designate “group admins”. Whatever principal listed in
    managedBy gets permission to update a group’s membership (the actual security is updated on the group’s AD object to allow this).
    In Win2008 and later managedBy also became the way you delegated local administration on an RODC, allowing branch admins to install patches, manage shares, etc. (http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc755310(WS.10).aspx). 
    On the RODC, this is updating the RepairAdmin registry value within RODCRoles.
    So the difference between them should be only the way they do the same thing.
    For more details, please refer to the below article:

  • Interface between business ware house system and SAP SD module

    hi,
    I want to develop interface between business ware house system(file adapter) and SAP SD module.  how can i post the data into SD system? can any one tell me which Idoc i should use in receiver side?
    if i want to go abap proxy how can do it?
    give some inputs(methods which i should use)
    Thanks in advance
    regards
    Ruban

    Hey
    the selection of IDOC depends upon what you wanna post into SD.get in touch with the ABAP guys and they should be able to tell u exactly which IDOC to use.
    once u have decided on IDOC,you can go for a File to IDOC scenario.
    as far as proxies are concerned,they kinda give better performance compared to IDOC but you need to do ABAP coding for them,in that case u dont need any IDOC
    Thanx

  • Difference between Business content of 2004 and 2004s

    Hi all,
    I was looking at the Business Content delivered with BI 2004 (BW 3.5)and BI 2004s (BW 7) for <b>Payroll</b> at the below links. It seemed they are almost the same.
    Can anyone tell me if there is any major difference between the two (specifically for Payroll) in terms of objects delivered with the business content, data flow, data model, cube design etc.
    <b>BW 3.5:</b>

    Will surely assign points for helpful answers!
    Thanks in advance.

    Hey. Installing and activating content is exactly the same between SAP NetWeaver 2004 and SAP NetWeaver 2004s. Just some notes you should apply before activating content if you're on SPS9:

  • Difference between ARIS Process Performance Manager and SAP BI

    Hi All,
    I am searching for an answer on the following question: when the business purpose is to measure performance of E.g. a call center process. Can the Process Performance Manager from ARIS replace SAP BI.
    Regards,
    Marcel

    Hi Marcel,
    If I can add to the comment of Ajay,
    I think that when your goal is to measure the performance of a Process and analyze root cause of performance problems, Process Performance Manager is best suited.
    Even if SAP BI could do it as well, I think that SAP BI is best suited for data analysis like financial reports, Market studies ...
    I think that the baseline is that SAP BI is a broader BI solution but ARIS PPM is best suited for process performance than SAP BI.

  • What is difference between SAP R3 And SAP IS Mills Product

    HI Friends
    What is difference between SAP R3 And SAP IS Mills Product
    What are the futures are availables in IS MIlls
    Regards

    Hi,
    SAP R/3 is the central enterprise version. It is not specifically designed for any inducstry sectors and it can cater many of the industry types.
    Is is developed for specific industries an for SMB's (small and medium business). It will have components specifically for the industry.
    The SAP Mill Products component adds sector-specific functionality to an ERP system to satisfy the complex requirements of mill industries (e.g. metal, wood, paper, textiles, construction materials, and cable sectors).
    These industry segments differ from others primarily in that the materials used have a large number of characteristics and variants. The materials in the segments listed above are also predominantly area-based (e.g. paper, textiles, plastic film) or length-based (e.g. cables, piping). Account must be taken of these material characteristics throughout the entire supply chain.
    To cater for the particularities of these industry segments, SAP Mill Products features processes and functions that cover the entire supply-chain cycle – from product design and configuration, through planning, order processing, capacity planning and production, to final delivery. Additional functions are available in costing and inventory management. SAP Mill Products are also integrated into Quality Management, Financial Accounting, and Controlling.

  • Difference between sap query and sap ad hoc query

    Hello Experts-
    Is there any difference between sap query and sap ad hoc query. If yes, I will appreciate if you can provide some input.
    Thanks,

    Hi,
    SAP Query
    Purpose
    The SAP Query application is used to create reports not already contained in the default. It has been designed for users with little or no knowledge of the SAP programming language ABAP.
    SAP Query offers users a broad range of ways to define reports and create different types of reports such as basic lists, statistics, and ranked lists.
    Features
    The SAP Query comprises five components: Queries, InfoSet Query, InfoSets, User Groups and Translation/Query.
    Classic reporting- the creation of lists, statistics and ranked lists- are covered by the InfoSet Query and Queries components. Other components’ range of functions cover the maintenance of InfoSets, the administration of user groups and also the translation of texts created in the SAP Query.
    All data required by a user for a report can be read from various tables.
    To define a report, you first have to enter individual texts, such as titles, and select the fields and options which determine the report layout. In the WYSIWYG mode, you can edit the lists using Drag & Drop and various toolbars.
    AD Hoc Query
    Definition
    A Web item that enables you to create and change queries in a Web application on an ad-hoc basis.
    Use
    You can use the  Ad-hoc Query Designer Web item in the Web Application Designer to structure Web applications in which you create or change queries. The Web item is as a tool for designing ad-hoc queries in a Web environment.
    In particular it enables you to:
    ·        Create queries by assigning characteristics from an InfoProvider to rows, columns, filters, and free characteristics, and including key figures from the InfoProvider in the key figure structure of the query.
    ·        Restrict or filter key figures and characteristics
    ·        Use predefined key figure structures and restricted or calculated key figures in the query
    ·        Set or change query properties and key figure/characteristic properties in the query
    ·        Create or change conditions and exceptions
    When compared with the BEx Query Designer, the Ad-hoc Query Designer Web item has the following restrictions when creating or changing queries:
    ·        You cannot integrate variables into the query directly.
    However, you can use variables in reusable structures, or restricted or calculate key figures, which are used in the Ad-hoc Query Designer
    ·        The query can contain only one structure. This structure has to be the key figure structure and be in the rows or columns of the query.
    -        You cannot use key figures or key figure structures in the filter.
    -        You cannot define exception cells, since this requires two structures.
    You cannot create the following objects using the Ad-hoc Query Designer Web item:
    -         Reusable structures
    -         Reusable restricted key figures
    -         Reusable calculated key figures
    -        Local calculated key figures
    You can create local, restricted key figures using the Ad-hoc Query Designer Web item.
    You can edit existing queries in the Ad-hoc Query Designer Web item, if the queries adhere to the restrictions laid out above The Ad-hoc Query Designer checks these requirements when loading a query. If the query is too complex, the query can be loaded into the Ad-hoc Query Designer but you cannot change it there. You then receive the appropriate message. You can still check and execute the query.
    "Ad Hoc" is a Latin phrase which means "for this purpose" and in today's parlance generally means "on the fly," or "spontaneously."
    An ad hoc query is a query that is run at the spur of the moment, and generally is never saved to run again. These queries are run using a SQL statement created by a tool or an administrator. So therefore, such a query is one that might suit a situation which is only there for the moment and later on will become irrelevant.
    As queries become more complex, it can be difficult to write them correctly ad-hoc. To help with this, one can instead write the knowledge needed for queries as business rules in English, and then use a system called "Internet Business Logic" to automatically generate and run the SQL queries. One can then get explanations of the results, in English, at the business level.

    Bapuraj

    Hi Bapuraj,
    Business System
    Business system is a logical system, and there is an importance on physical existence of the system.Also SLD entry is required.
    It is generally used for SAP applications, this is just a general prinicple followed but not mandatory.
    Business Component(formerly Service)
    You use a Business Component, when you do not have the System details of the the partner system to which you want to communicate. i.e. you have not configured the partner system in SLD.
    Business Service is an Absract Unit with Sender and Receiver Interfaces,In this case you need to explicitly add the message interfaces while doing configuration in ID.
    It is generally used for NON-SAP applications, this is just a general prinicple followed but not mandatory.

  • Difference between Business area and profit center accounting

    Hi Frnds,
    Can any body explain about difference between business area and profit center accounting .

    Hi
    Business area will have many profit centers. For example Vehicle is a business area in a company. Vehicle can be cars and Bikes etc. Here Vehicle is business area and Cars and Bike are profit centers. In broad Vehicle is a profit center. But as it has sub areas those are profit centers. So profit centers cannot be replaced with business area and vice versa. We can replace business area by Profit centre, only condition is that it should be in same controlling area. The business area is more like a business unit of a company. You can have multiple profit centers within a business area.
    Main distinguish factor is that distribution and assessment in possible in profit center but not in business area.
    One more distinction is that Business area need not be attached to any organisation structure. But profit centres can be created only under the controlling area. Business area can be across controlling area.
    Business area concept is used for making stragic decisions by the management whereas the primary purpose of profit centre accounting is responsibility accounting.
