I need information about ERP and modules

Hi,
I am new on SAP so if i can benefit your knowledge that would be great for me. I am not sure about modules. Why are we using so many modules in SAP and what does mean SAP module exactly? As i see whatever you do in SAP you should know something about modules that is why i am asking these questions.
Regards.

As it is evident your quiet new to SAP & SDN.
But still, I would also agree with Nick.
As there are mainly links flowing around.
Only thing required from your side is to put afford to search them.
Thus, kindly put an afford to search for the topics search you want.
For instance, follow the following link:
[- Overview on SAP Modules |http://www.thespot4sap.com/articles/sap_modules.asp]
Or try posting this query on following SDN forum:
All the very best & Take care.
Thanks & Regards

  • NEED INFORMATION ABOUT "MAX_TEST" FUNCTION MODULE

    HI ABAPERS,
                      I need information about "MAX_TEST" function module . this function module is used in 4.6 version , now system have been shifted to 6.0.....here in 6.0 version this function module is not prasent.can any one tell me which new function module we can use in place of this function module, without changing the functionality........
             Thanks in advance
    regards,
    SUNIL

    The module is not very sophisticated. Profficiency in Java or ABAP will be a great bonus here. There are plenty of good materials regarding XI on SDN. I suggest to start with step-by-step guides and master all basic integration scenarios
    http://wiki.sdn.sap.com/wiki/display/XI/Step-by-Step+Guides
    Opportunities in industry are not bad also, cause PI is rather popular among customers. The best thing is that it fits any type of customer's business. Integration is demanded almost everywhere.

  • Need information about interfaces and namespaces in actionscript 3.0

    Hi,
    I need information about actionscript interfaces and
    namespaces, I'm preparing for ACE for Flash CS3 and I need to learn
    about this subjects and I can not find resources or simple examples
    that make these subjects understandable.
    Anybody can help me!
    Thanks a lot.

    Interfaces (cont.)
    Perhaps the most useful feature of interfaces is that you not
    only can define the data type but also method signature of the
    class that implements this interface. In other words, interface can
    define and enforce what methods class MUST implement. This is very
    useful when classes are branching in packages and team of
    developers works on a large application among others.
    The general syntax for an Interface with method signatures is
    written the following way:
    package{
    public interface InterfaceName {
    // here we specify the methods that will heave to be
    implemented
    function method1 (var1:dataType,
    var2:datType,…):returnType;
    function method2 (var1:dataType,
    var2:datType,…):returnType;
    To the previous example:
    package{
    public interface IQualified {
    function method1 ():void;
    function method2 ():int;
    Let’s write a class that implements it.
    If I just write:
    package{
    public class ClassOne extends DisplayObject implements
    IQualified {
    public function ClassOne(){}
    I will get a compilation error that states that I did not
    implement required by the interface methods.
    Now let’s implement only one method:
    package{
    public class ClassOne extends DisplayObject implements
    IQualified {
    private function method1():void{
    return;
    public function ClassOne(){}
    I will get the error again because I implemented only one out
    of two required methods.
    Now let’s implement all of them:
    package{
    public class ClassOne extends DisplayObject implements
    IQualified {
    private function method1():void{
    return;
    private function method2():int{
    return 4;
    public function ClassOne(){}
    Now everything works OK.
    Now let’s screw with return datatypes. I attempt to
    return String instead of void in method1 in ClassOne:
    private function method1():String{
    return “blah”;
    I am getting an error again – Interface requires that
    the method1 returns void.
    Now let’s attempt to pass something into the method1:
    private function method1(obj:MovieClip):void{
    return;
    Oops! An error again. Interface specified that the function
    doesn’t accept any parameters.
    Now rewrite the interface:
    package{
    public interface IQualified {
    function method1 (obj:MovieClip):void;
    function method2 ():int;
    Now compiler stops complaining.
    But, if we revert the class back to:
    private function method1():void{
    return;
    compiler starts complaining again because we don’t pass
    any parameters into the function.
    The point is that interface is sort of a set of rules. In a
    simple language, if it is stated:
    public class ClassOne implements IQualified
    it says: “I, class ClassOne, pledge to abide by all the
    rules that IQualified has established and I will not function
    correctly if I fail to do so in any way. (IMPORTANT) I can do more,
    of course, but NOT LESS.”
    Of course the class that implements an interface can have
    more that number of methods the corresponding interface requires
    – but never less.
    MORE means that in addition to any number of functions it can
    implement as many interfaces as it is desired.
    For instance, I have three interfaces:
    package{
    public interface InterfaceOne {
    function method1 ():void;
    function method2 ():int;
    package{
    public interface InterfaceTwo {
    function method3 ():void;
    package{
    public interface InterfaceThree{
    function method4 ():void;
    If our class promises to implement all three interface it
    must have all four classes in it’s signature:
    package{
    public class ClassOne extends DisplayObject implements
    InterfaceOne, InterfaceTwi, InterfaceThree{
    private function method1():void{return;}
    private function method2():int{return 4;}
    private function method3():void{return;}
    private function method4():void{return;}
    public function ClassOne(){}
    Hope it helps.

    You might look towards forming a query that accurately restricts the identifying information
    for rows you want to display in your view, and using that as a subquery within the view definition.
    This can be described generally as:
    CREATE OR REPLACE VIEW yourViewHere AS
    SELECT
    usefulData
    FROM
    listOfTables
    WHERE
    properlyJoined
    AND someKeyColumn(s) IN (
    SELECT someKeyColumn(s)
    FROM listOfTables
    WHERE properlyJoined
    AND yourSpecialBusinessCondition(s)
    Note that SELECT UNIQUE/DISTINCT is not needed for
    the SELECT in the subquery ... the IN operator will
    do well enough without the extra work performed by UNIQUE.
    Usually good to look at the query plan used for each part of the query.

  • Need Information about More ports Fiber Optic Switches

    Hiii Guys,
    I need information about which Cisco Switch consist more Fiber Optic Ports. I knew one model Cisco (WS-C3750G-12S-E) Catalyst 3750G-12S-12 Gigabit Ethernet SFP ports. But we can using this we can make stacking up to 9 devices. Even though I need more than 12 ports in single device. Could any one help me out in this.

    Hi Sayed,
    Please take a look at the 3560E-12SD:
    http://www.cisco.com/en/US/prod/collateral/switches/ps5718/ps7078/product_data_sheet0900aecd805bac22.html
    [edit] Sorry, didn't catch from the first post reading that you've considered stacking (the 3560 doesn't support stacking).
    For more than 12 fiber ports on a single device you'll need to go for the 4500 series with the appropriate modules:

    Hi Rama
    Retailing consists of the sale of goods or merchandise, from a fixed location such as a department store or kiosk, in small or individual lots for direct consumption by the purchaser.[1] Retailing may include subordinated services, such as delivery. Purchasers may be individuals or businesses. In commerce, a retailer buys goods or products in large quantities from manufacturers or importers, either directly or through a wholesaler, and then sells smaller quantities to the end-user. Retail establishments are often called shops or stores. Retailers are at the end of the supply chain. Manufacturing marketers see the process of retailing as a necessary part of their overall distribution strategy.
    Shops may be on residential streets, shopping streets with few or no houses, or in a shopping center or mall, but are mostly found in the central business district. Shopping streets may be for pedestrians only. Sometimes a shopping street has a partial or full roof to protect customers from precipitation. Retailers often provided boardwalks in front of their stores to protect customers from the mud. Online retailing, also known as e-commerce is the latest form of non-shop retailing (cf. mail order).
    Shopping generally refers to the act of buying products. Sometimes this is done to obtain necessities such as food and clothing; sometimes it is done as a recreational activity. Recreational shopping often involves window shopping (just looking, not buying) and browsing and does not always result in a purchase.
    Most retailers have employees learn facing, a hyperreal tool used to create the look of a perfectly-stocked store even when it is not.

    [edit] Retail pricing
    The pricing technique used by most retailers is cost-plus pricing. This involves adding a markup amount (or percentage) to the retailers cost. Another common technique is suggested retail pricing. This simply involves charging the amount suggested by the manufacturer and usually printed on the product bize the manufacturer.
    In Western countries, retail prices are often so-called psychological prices or odd prices: a little less than a round number, e.g. $6.95. In Chinese societies, prices are generally either a round number or sometimes a lucky number. This creates price points.
    Often prices are fixed and displayed on signs or labels. Alternatively, there can be price discrimination for a variety of reasons, where the retailer charges higher prices to some customers and lower prices to others. For example, a customer may have to pay more if the seller determines that he or she is willing to. The retailer may conclude this due to the customer's wealth, carelessness, lack of knowledge, or eagerness to buy. Another example is the practice of discounting for youths or students. Price discrimination can lead to a bargaining situation often called haggling, in which the parties negotiate about the price. Economists see this as determining how the transaction's total surplus will be divided into consumer and producer surplus. Neither party has a clear advantage, because of the threat of no sale, in which case the surplus vanishes for both.
    Retailers who are overstocked, or need to raise cash to renew stocks may resort to "Sales", where prices are "marked down", often by advertised percentages - "50% off" for example."Sales" are often held at fixed times of the year, for example January sales, or end-of-season sales, or Blue Cross Sale
    [edit] Retail Industry
    Retail Industry has brought in phenomenal changes in the whole process of production, distribution and consumption of Consumer Goods all over the world. In the present world most of the developed economies are using the Retail Industry as their vital growth instrument. At present, among all the industries of U.S.A the Retail Industry holds the second place in terms of Employment Generation. In fact, the strength of the Retail Industry lies in its ability to generate large volume of employment.
    Not only U.S but also the other developed countries like U.K, Canada, France, Germany are experiencing tremendous growth in their Retail Sectors. This boom in the Global Retail Industry was in many ways accelerated by the Liberalization of Retail Sector.
    Observing this global upward trend of Retail Industry, now the developing countries like India are also planning to tap the enormous potential of the retail sector. Wal-Mart,the world's largest Retailer has been invited to India. Other popular Brands like Pantaloons, Big Bazar, Archies are rapidly increasing their market share in the retail sector. According to a survey, within 5 years, the Indian Retail Industry is expected to generate 10 to 15 million jobs by direct and indirect effects. This huge employment generation can be possible because of the fact that being dependent on the the Retail Sector shares a lot of Forward and Backward Linkages.
    Emergence of a strong Retail Sector can contribute immensely to the economic development of any country. With a dominant retail sector, the farmers and other suppliers can sell their produce directly to the major retail companies and can ensure stable profit. On the other hand, to ensure steady supply of goods, the Retail Companies can inject cash into the production system. This whole process can result into a more efficient production and distribution system for the economy as a whole.
    [edit] Etymology
    Retail comes from the French word retaillier which refers to "cutting off, clip and divide" in terms of tailoring (1365). It first was recorded as a noun with the meaning of a "sale in small quantities" in 1433 (French). Its literal meaning for retail was to "cut off, shred, paring". Like the French, the word retail in both Dutch and German (detailhandel and Einzelhandel respectively) also refer to sale of small quantities or items.[citation needed]
    [edit] Retail types
    According to Jim there are three major types of retailing. The first is the market, a physical location where buyers and sellers converge. Usually this is done in town squares, sidewalks or designated streets and may involve the construction of temporary structures (market stalls). The second form is shop or store trading. Some shops use counter-service, where goods are out of reach of buyers, and must be obtained from the seller. This type of retail is common for small expensive items (e.g. jewelry) and controlled items like medicine and liquor. Self-service, where goods may be handled and examined prior to purchase, has become more common since the Twentieth Century. A third form of retail is virtual retail, where products are ordered via mail, telephone or online without having been examined physically but instead in a catalog, on television or on a website. Sometimes this kind of retailing replicates existing retail types such as online shops or virtual marketplaces such as futurebazaar.com or Amazon.[2].
    Buildings for retail have changed considerably over time. Market halls were constructed in the Middle Ages, which were essentially just covered marketplaces. The first shops in the modern sense used to deal with just one type of article, and usually adjoined the producer (baker, tailor, cobbler). In the nineteenth century, in France, arcades were invented, which were a street of several different shops, roofed over. counters, each dealing with a different kind of article was invented; it was called a department store. One of the novelties of the department store was the introduction of fixed prices, making haggling unnecessary, and browsing more enjoyable. This is commonly considered the birth of consumerism [3]. In cities, these were multi-story buildings which pioneered the escalator.
    In the 1920s the first supermarket opened in the United States, heralding in a new era of retail: self-service. Around the same time the first shopping mall was constructed [4] which incorporated elements from both the arcade and the department store. A mall consists of several department stores linked by arcades (many of whose shops are owned by the same firm under different names). The design was perfected by the Austrian architecht Victor Gruen[5]. All the stores rent their space from the mall owner. By mid-century, most of these were being developed as single enclosed, climate-controlled, projects in suburban areas. The mall has had a considerable impact on the retail structure and urban development in the United States. [6]
    In addition to the enclosed malls, there are also strip malls which are 'outside' malls (in Britain they are called retail parks. These are often comprised of one or more big box stores or superstores.
    Non-traditional exterior of a SuperTarget, JacksonvilleLocal shops can be known as brick and mortar stores in the United States. Many shops are part of a chain: a number of similar shops with the same name selling the same products in different locations. The shops may be owned by one company, or there may be a franchising company that has franchising agreements with the shop owners (see also restaurant chain).
    Some shops sell second-hand goods. Often the public can also sell goods to such shops, sometimes called 'pawn' shops. In other cases, especially in the case of a nonprofit shop, the public donates goods to the shop to be sold (see also thrift store). In give-away shops goods can be taken for free.
    There are also 'consignment' shops, which is where a person can place an item in a store, and if it sells the person gives the shop owner a percentage of the sale price. The advantage of selling an item this way is that the established shop give the item exposure to more potential buyers.
    The term retailer is also applied where a service provider services the needs of a large number of individuals, such as with telephone or electric power.
    IS Retail was original develop to meet specific needs of Retail industry where standard SD/MM cannot.
    - Significant functionality difference are:
    - Store specific features are built into IS Retail where as it is not in
    standard SD/MM.
    - Mass processing of pricing (some of the retail features were
    included as standard SAP as of 4.6)
    - Assortment handling is not in standard SAP
    There are other differences in inventory costing/valuation etc.
    Retail valuation only available in SAP Retail.
    What is known in the trade as the "retail inventory method" or the "retail method" involves valuating stocks at retail, often aggregated at merchandise category or departmental level.
    Both the cost method and the retail method can be used in SAP Retail.
    Actually IS-Retail is a combination of MM and SD plus other funtionalities speacially developed for the retail industry such as:
    Promotions
    Pricing
    Assortments
    Clasification
    Merchandise category
    Seasons
    Is important to mention that all the funtionality of MM and SD is avialable in SAP IS-Retail with some diferences in some transactions:
    Material master data (article in retail) has some diferences.
    Vendor master data.
    Site master data.
