Whats the functional difference between CUA and UME?

Hi All,
A small query regarding UME (User Management Engine) and CUA ( Central User Administration). Whats the functional difference between these two. I read in help documents that UME will be used for SAP WebAS Java server. But I read that it can be used for ABAP engine as well. Then why do we need to use CUA when we have user friendly interface tool like UME. According to my knowledge from help documentation, UME comes pre installed. so we dont need to install it as we have to do for CUA.
Can any help me in understanding the difference between these two. Thanks in advance. Good day.
Regards,
Farooq.

Hi,
Indeed good question.
It depends on installation type you selected. But are responsible for user administration in terms of creating, deleting, updating and role assignment tasks to users and groups.
--CUA is meant for ABAP Installation. CUA is responsible for entire landscape user administration works with RFC connection talking to all ABAP systems
--UME is meant for Java installations, plus UME is responsible for handling communication between ABAP users and java users.
UME
For more details see below links all advantages and disadvantages of both systems and comparisons deliberately.

  • Whats the functional difference between dbconole and using the Grid control.

    I know this may seem like a strange question, but I was wondering if I only have one instance on my server, would benefit would i gain if I installed and configured the grid control
    over the dbconsole that comes with the 11gr2?
    I know the Grid control can discover many databases, but what else can it do that the dbconsole cannot?
    thanks!

  • Whats the functional difference between user IDs SAP* and DDIC?

    Whats the functional difference between SAP* and DDIC? Can any one tell me please. I am new here. Thanks in advance.

    Hi Farooq,
    There are three user IDs in various SAP clients.
    1. SAP* (Client 000 and 001)
    SAP* denotes the default super user and has all administrative powers.
    2. DDIC (Client 000 and 001)
    DDIC user is responsible for the maintenance of the ABAP/4 Dictionary and the software logistics.
    3. EarlyWatch (Client 066)
    The EarlyWatch user has access only to monitoring and performance data.
    Please check this link for more information on data dictionary objects.

  • Whats the main difference between wifi and wifi   Cellular for iPad mini?

    Can someone explain to me in simple terms the main difference/benefit of buying a wifi or a wifi + cellular iPad? I thought the cellular meant you would have a sim card in it and you can then connect to the internet when you are not near a wifi, but now looking at the specs again it mentions a sim card for the wifi one, so what are you getting extra for the cellular technology?

    Aloha Karl. You're welcome. I'm still new to all this technology myself. I only had my iPad for a year and a half. Up until a few years ago I had no plans to  to ever have anything to do with computers. Fortunately a few friends showed me what was available on the internet and another friend suggested I should give the iPad a look at. The rest is history. At 63 I'm still like a kid with a new toy, trying to learn, trying to help.  Bob.

  • What are the functional differences between the iPhone and the iPod Touch, barring of course the differences in service requirements.

    What are the functional differences between the iPhone and the iPod Touch, barring of course the differences in service requirements.

    For one, their form factors are slightly different as the iPhone has a bit more squarish body whereas the iPod Touch has a tapered back to it. 
    The iPhone also has much better front and rear cameras. Exact details as to the difference in megapixels depends on whether or not you talking about the iPhone 4 or 4S.  If you would like to get more details, you can always view
    each models specs on Apple's online store.
    See here for a better explanation.

  • What is the main difference between eewb and aet tool ?

    Dear all,
    What is the main difference between eewb and aet? Both ways we can create fields and coming to aet is in crm 7.0 and eewb is in 6.0.when we are creating fields through eewb we should have technical knowledge but aet tool is a simple tool as a function people also can easily add the fields. I want to know is there any main difference between both these tools.
    Regards,
    Jemmi.

    EEWB works from SAP GUI whereas AET works from WEB UI. AET is developed on top of the EEWB. Most the Objects are supported barring a few through AET. It's a very usefull tool for SAP CRM.
    Since in CRM SAP GUI will be phased out soon, AET will be prominent. One will see lot more features in upcoming relase in AET tool.

  • What is the main difference between Enhancements and BADI.?

    What is the main difference between Enhancements and BADI.?plzz tell
    Edited by: Alvaro Tejada Galindo on Feb 13, 2008 3:48 PM

    CMOD is the Project Management of SAP Enhancements (i.e., SMOD Enhancements). SMOD contains the actual enhancements and CMOD is the grouping of those SMOD enhancements.
    Difference Between BADI and User Exits
    BADI's can be used any number of times, where as USER-EXITS can be used only one time.
    Ex:- if your assigning a USER-EXIT to a project in (CMOD), then you can not assign the same to other project.
    BADI's are oops based.
    Business Add-Ins are a new SAP enhancement technique based on ABAP Objects. They can be inserted into the SAP System to accommodate user requirements too specific to be included in the standard delivery. Since specific industries often require special functions, SAP allows you to predefine these points in your software. 
    As with customer exits two different views are available:
    In the definition view, an application programmer predefines exit points in a source that allow specific industry sectors, partners, and customers to attach additional software to standard SAP source code without having to modify the original object. 
    In the implementation view, the users of Business Add-Ins can customize the logic they need or use a standard logic if one is available.
    In contrast to customer exits, Business Add-Ins no longer assume a two-level infrastructure (SAP and customer solutions), but instead allow for a multi-level system landscape (SAP, partner, and customer solutions, as well as country versions, industry solutions, and the like). Definitions and implementations of Business Add-Ins can be created at each level within such a system infrastructure.
    SAP guarantees the upward compatibility of all Business Add-In interfaces. Release upgrades do not affect enhancement calls from within the standard software nor do they affect the validity of call interfaces. You do not have to register Business Add-Ins in SSCR.
    The Business Add-In enhancement technique differentiates between enhancements that can only be implemented once and enhancements that can be used actively by any number of customers at the same time. In addition, Business Add-Ins can be defined according to filter values. This allows you to control add-in implementation and make it dependent on specific criteria (on a specific Country value, for example).
    All ABAP sources, screens, GUIs, and table interfaces created using this enhancement technique are defined in a manner that allows customers to include their own enhancements in the standard. A single Business Add-In contains all of the interfaces necessary to implement a specific task.
    The actual program code is enhanced using ABAP Objects. In order to better understand the programming techniques behind the Business Add-In enhancement concept, SAP recommends reading the section on ABAP Objects.

  • What is the main difference between menu_exits and user_exits

    what is the main difference between menu_exits and user_exits

    Hi,
    User Exits:
    A user exit is a three character code that instructs the system to access a program during system processing.
    SXX: S is for standard exits that are delivered by SAP. XX represents the 2-digit exit number.
    UXX: U is for user exits that are defined by the user. XX represents the 2-digit exit number
    Menu Exits:
    Menu exits add items to the pulldown menus in standard SAP applications. You can use these menu items to call up your own screens or to trigger entire add-on applications.
    SAP creates menu exits by defining special menu items in the Menu Painter. These special entries have function codes that begin with "+" (a plus sign). You specify the menu item’s text when activating the item in an add-on project.

    Priyanka.

  • What are the major differences between BODS and Talend ?

    Hi Friends,
    We had a client meeting 2 days back regarding BODS project, But our client is showing more interest on Talend. We have explained/demo him on BODS.  Could any one please tell me, What are the major differences between BODS and Talend ? What are the features of BODS which are not there in TELEND ?
    Thanks,

    Hi,
    If you talk difference than Talend is an open source. SAP DS as huge advantage when it comes to loading data into SAP and it is more flexible with lots of inbuilt features and easy to load data into SAP using DS directly and extracting data from various legacy systems.

  • Whats the actual difference between Business system and Business service

    whats the actual difference between Business system and Business service

    Business System
    1) Business system is a logical system, and there is an importance on physical existence of the system.
    2) Also SLD entry is required.
    3)It is generally used for SAP applications, this is just a general prinicple followed but not mandatory.
    4)This is defined as part of the SLD and is a physical system whose parameters are well defined.
    5(Business systems refers to the physical systems, for instance the R/3 system. You define the business systems in the SLD
    Business Service
    1) You use a Business Service, 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.
    2) 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.
    3) It is generally used for NON-SAP applications, this is just a general prinicple followed but not mandatory.
    4) This is not defined as part of SLD and whose technical parameters are not completely known.
    5)Business service is used when the message is not addressed to a business system. It is used mostly in B2B scenarios.

  • What is the fundamental difference between classful and classless routing?

    Hello to all,
    After reading several RFCs, guides and HOWTOs I am confused by an apparently trivial question - what is the basic, fundamental difference between classful and classless routing?
    I am well aware that - said in a very primitive way - the classful routing does not make use of netmasks and instead uses the address classes while the classless routing utilizes the netmasks and does not evaluate the address classes.
    However, already in 1985 the RFC 950 (Internet Standard Subnetting Procedure) stated that the networks can be further subnetted using the network mask. Since then the routers are expected to use network masks in the routing decision process in the precise way they use it nowadays. However, if the routers use network masks they are doing the classless routing, aren't they? Where is then the difference if we used to describe the 80's way of routing as a classful routing? Or was it already the classless routing? The RFCs about CIDR came gradually only in 1992 and 1993.
    If somebody could give me an insight into the key difference between classful and classless routing (and perhaps into the Internet history, how was the real routing done then) I would be most grateful.
    Thank you a lot!
    Regards,
    Peter

    Hello Mohammed,
    I am afraid we still have not understood each other ;) I am not looking for the algorithms used to select the best path. I am well aware of them, both Ford-Bellman and Dijkstra, and about their internals. By the way, these algorithms do not have any influence whether the routing is classful or classless because they deal with metrics, not with masks. For example, a classless EIGRP internally uses a distance-vector algorithm, not a SPF algorithm.
    I will try to explain once more what is my problem... There are two terms commonly used but badly defined: the classless routing and classful routing. Originally, I have thought that the classful routing works as follows:
    - The routing table consists only of classful destination networks (major nets), metrics and respective gateways. No network masks are stored in the table because we are classful, that is, we use exclusively the route classes and all entries in the routing table are already classful.
    - When routing a packet, the router looks at its destination IP address and determines the major net of this IP address (that is, the classful network that this IP address belongs to). Then it looks up the corresponding entry in the routing table and sends the packet to the respective gateway.
    I thought that the classful routing works in this way. I won't describe the classless routing - both of us know how do the today's routers select the next hop.
    However, in the RFCs 917 and 950 which were published in 1985, long ago before the term 'classless routing' was coined, the network mask was already defined and it was stated how the routers should work with it.
    Now I am confused. The terms classless addresses and classless routing were defined sometime in 1990's, therefore I assume that the routing before the invention of classless IP assignment can be in fact described as classful. In other words, I thought that the routing that was commonly used in 1980's did not use netmasks and can be described as classful because the notion of classlessness came first in 1990's. But now I see that netmasks were defined in 1985.
    Now where am I wrong? Do I understand the classful routing properly as I described it? Is it correct to talk about routing in that era as classful although the netmasks were already in use? Or was it already the classless routing?
    Basically I am trying to understand what was called the classful routing if the classless routing is said to be something different.
    Mohammed, I am most grateful to you for your patience and suggestions! Thank you indeed.
    Regards,
    Peter

  • What is the main difference between view and materialize view and advantage of Mview   ??

    What is the main difference between view and materialize view and advantage of Mview   ??

    1.A view uses a query to pull data from its associated tables.
    2.Views do not have data's physically stored in the Database.
    3.Views Get the Data from 2 or more tables and displays as a single block.
    4.But a materialized view is a table on disk is a result set of a query done.
    5.A Materialized view can have data's in the database.
    6.Materialized view are used for Boosting the Performance.
    7.And the important one is Materialized views are updated based on the parameters defined when they are created.
    8.By using triggers we can update the data in a materialized view.
    9.When you call a materialized view it will show the data when it was last updated.
    Hope it helps.

  • What is a difference between MB01 and MBST  for GR Cancellation

    Hi,
    What is a difference between MB01 and MBST  for GR Cancellation.
    Regards,
    Aditya

    Hi,
    MB01 is used for doing the GR for collective PO at a single instance.
    This transaction will be utilize when an individual needs to create a material document.  A material document can only be displayed or changed after it has been generated in the SAP system.  In a computer based inventory management system, the principal of "no posting without a document" applies.  A material document is generated and stored in the SAP system for every transaction that causes a change in stock.
    As mentioned, when a goods movement is posted a material document is created.  It serves as proof of the movement   If the movement updates a G/L account; an accounting document is also created. The material and accounting document s are identified by unique document numbers
    Once you have posted a goods movement, you cannot change material numbers, quantities or account numbers in the material document.  You can however use the Change command to enter additional or change text information such as comments or references.  To reverse the movement or change a quantity, a new transaction must be performed.
    MBST:-
    Perform this transaction when a previously performed goods issue must be cancelled due to an error in data entry or other circumstances deem the previous transaction unnecessary.
    Prerequisites:-
    A previously played transaction that requires cancellation.
    An existing Material Document in SAP.
    This Transaction will be utilized when an individual needs to cancel a material document due to a data entry error or other circumstances deem a previous transaction unnecessary. A material document can only be cancelled after it has been generated in the SAP system. A material document is generated and stored in the SAP system for every transaction that causes a change in stock.
    Performing this transaction will "undo" a previous transaction by reversing individual line items in a material document or by reversing an entire material document. This transaction will reinstate the affected cost center, purchase order or stock location to the state they were in prior to playing the original transaction.
