Hello Ratish,
The advantages and disadvantages are primarily based on the light weight client and heavy client.
Excel -
1. It is heavy weight and needs a client installation
2. Analysis is easier , as excel functionalities can be used over BI data
3. People who know excel will like this
Web-
1. It is light weight and no installation needed at the client as browser will be available
2. Can not analyze the data from the report ( you need copy to excel)
In simple analysts and expert users like excel.
Users who just view the report and no more analysis will be happy with web.

Doubts about the advantages and disadvantages of BEx Analyzer

Hi people!
Do you know in specific. What are the advantages and disadvantages of BEx Analyzer?
and Do you know the limitations and scope of the bex analyzer?
Talking about the security issue. What kind of resticciones be applied to end-users to control information. Protecting system
resources and the information that the user uses, not be manipulated.
I hope you could answer my doubts
Ramon
Thanks

Hi!
The standard BEx BI 3.x tools, is no longer available with the SAP NetWeaver 7.0 BI tools; however, it is part of the SAP BI add-on installation that, by default, will install the BW 3.x tools along with the newer BI 7.0 tools.
We want to prevent unauthorized download of data to excel sheets from users who have installed bex analyzer but are not authorized to do that. Certain users only have to access querys from web and shouldn't have to use reports from bex analyzer.
The only accepted way to access reports for all users is by using web querys published in our intranet. But many users have bex analyzer installed and we don't want that an unauthorized user download data to a excel sheet via bex analyzer.
I'm testing with one user with this roles, but bex web template and bex analyzer have similiar object authorizations, and i don't know if is possible prevent unauthorized download of data from excel sheets.
Final users don't access to bex analyzer by rrmx transaction
Until know i'm testing with this user roles:
1. ZBW:BEX_WEB:RFC (for web templates)
S_RFC:
ACTVT: 16
RFC_NAME:
RFC1
RSBOLAP_BICS
RSBOLAP_BICS_CONSUMER
RSBOLAP_BICS_PROVIDER

2. ZBW:BEX:RFC (for Bex Analyzer):
ACTVT: 16
RFC_NAME:
RSOBJS_RFC_INTERFACE
RSR_XLS_RFC
RZX0
SDIFRUNTIME
SM02
SUNI
SYST
RFC_TYPE: FUGR
please take in count this points:
1. Prevent unauthorized download of data to excel sheets from users that should have accees only querys from web not bex analyzer (very important this point)=
2. what are the disadvantages of BEx Analyzer, if only if limited by excel...from other point like performance, workprocess with long runtimes, memory issues, for said something.
I don't know if i'm going by good way.
Somebody could help me?

Advantage and disadvantage of xml publisher, report builder and discoverer

Hi,
anyone can explain advantage and disadvantage of xml publisher, report builder and discoverer?
thanks in advance!

The best way i found was to put a equals and then double quotes... this only works for excel however it will allow you to cut and paste (ie to use the value to search in Oracle) and also to do vlookups.
In a bit more detail:
- I used word to generate my default table
- this created a field INVOICE_NUM
- in the cell in the table i put = " before the INVOICE_NUM field and then put the closing " afterwards.
The theory is that excel will concatenate the values together... because it has quotes around it, it will treat it as a string rather than simply a value.
For any other formats this will not work.
I'm guessing most people have moved on and resolved this some other way, but just thought I'd share the wealth!

Advantages and Disadvantages of Dual booting Windows on PXI Device

Hello,
In solving my previous problem of running a DLL in RTOS I've stumbled upon another solution. But i wanted to know the pros and cons of this before i make the leap.
I want to install windows on the PXI device so that the NHR DLL files are run inherently on the windows kernel and i have access over my DAQ devices without placing them in the remote target.
What are the advantages and disadvantages of installing a windows only on the DAQ device and running all my operation from it. Do i loose my real time features? I dont know, I'm really new to LabView and may sound really dumb. Please excuse my lack of knowledge.
With Regards,
Khalid.

Hello Bob,
Thank you for your insightful answer. I also thought this might happen, loosing all the RT features.
I have another question for you. If i use a RT variant of windows like "Windows Embedded 8", will this make any difference? Can i regain my RT features by it or i have to go with the LabView RTOS.
I'm pushing towards a windows system because i have to run this DLL file from NHR which is not supported by the LabView RTOS.
Moreover, I could just install just windows onto the PXI controller. I'm not being able to make it dual boot. Can you guide me towards proper guideline to do so? I looked at the knowledge base file about dual booting, but the instructions dont exactly match with my available options in BIOS setup.
Any suggestions from anyone is much appreciated.
With Regards,
Khalid.

Singl/Multiple Server Oracle 10g DB and AS- Advantages and DisAdvantages

Hi Friends,
I am using Application1 using Oracle 10g Application Server and Oracle 10g database.
Now i planned to use Application2 using Oracle 10g AS and Oracle 10g DB
I need to know what will be the Advantages and Disadvantages if i have the schema for Application2 in the existing Oracle 10g DB / having it in another Oracle 10g DB Server
sameway what will be the advantages and disadvantages if i have the Application2 regsiterd in existing Oracle 10g AS(Multiple OC4J Instance) / having it in another Oracle 10g AS Server.
Regards

To start the list, for me some of the advantages are:
Same DB:
- less overhead and wasted CPU Cycles (therefore potentially lower license fees)
- easier maintenance (backup, recovery)
- easier tuning (fewer conflicting external environments asking for same resources)
- Oracle is designed for this, allows use of Resource Manager
- technically RAC is a clustered 'same DB'
Same AS:
- less overhead and wasted CPU Cycles (therefore potentially lower license fees)
- easier maintenance (backup, recovery)
- easier tuning (fewer conflicting external environments asking for same resources)
- Oracle is designed for this, use AS clustering
Different DB:
- separate maintenance (patch, upgrade) cycles for different SLA
- easier tuning (isolate tuning to one app)
- easier security (most developers have no idea about Oracle security and make merge impossible)
Different AS:
- separate maintenance (patch, upgrade) cycles for different SLA
- easier tuning (isolate tuning to one app)
- easier security (most developers have no idea about security)

Advantage and Disadvantage of user login ID

Dear SAP expert,
I need some advice whether to use "employee no." or "name" to create SAP login.
What is the advantage and disadvantage of using employee no. ?
Thanks.
Rgds,

Hi Nitin,
A view can be thought of as either a virtual table or a stored query. The data accessible through a view is not stored in the database as a distinct object. What is stored in the database is a SELECT statement. The result set of the SELECT statement forms
the virtual table returned by the view. A user can use this virtual table by referencing the view name in Transact-SQL statements the same way a table is referenced.
For more information about the advantages and disadvantages of views in SQL Server, please refer to the following two articles:

What are advantage and disadvantage for Physical Standy and Logical Standby

HI,
What are advantage and disadvantage for Physical Standy and Logical Standby configuration?
Thanks
Ken

Logical standby database
The key advantage for logical standby databases is that they're opened read/write, even while they're in
applied mode. That is, they can be used to generate reports and the like. It is indeed a fully functional
database. Also, additional indexes, materialized views and so on can be created.
However (this being a disadvantage) not all datatypes are supported.
Oracle (or more exactly the log apply services) uses the primary database's redo log, transforms them into
SQL statements and replays them on the logical standby database.
Physical standby database
A physical standby database is a byte for byte exact copy of the primary database. This also means that
rowids stay the same in a physical standby database environment.
Oracle (or more exactly the log apply services) uses the primary database's redo log to recover the
physical database.
A physical standby database might be opened read only; however, the received logs are in this case not
applied. When the logs are applied, the database is not accessible (it is then in a managed recovery state).

Advantages and disadvantages of having 2 controlling areas.

Dear All.
My client have 2 company codes and will use same fiscal year variant and chart of account. so we recommend for one contrilling area. But my client wants some document or wants to know the advantages and disadvantages of having 2 controlling areas.
I will really do appreciate if anybody hepls me in this regards.

there is no general correct answer as every case is the different.
However, the majority of solutions that have a single CoA will also have a single Controlling Area.
The Controlling Area is the highest reporting level in Controlling, PCA, CCA etc.
Normally if you have two CoA then you will have two Controlling Areas.
A simple point to make to them is that a Controlling Area can only have 1 CoA, therefore you cant have 2.
Are your Company Codes in the same Country?

Advantages and Disadvantages of Applet over JSP/servlet

Can some one please let me know what are the major advantages and disadvantages of using Applets over JSP/Servlet technology?

Well, a servlet / jsp is generated on the server, an applet on the client side. That's the most important difference.
Appelt's usually are for little applications like games and stuff, you can run in a browser.
Servlets are for dynamic pages, for example database-viewing and stuf...

What are the advantages and disadvantages to cookies?

Ok, so I am required to interview some expert for a Final in college. I choose to do my final on cookies throughout the different browsers. The downside is that it is nearly impossible to get a one-on-one interview from an expert in this field. This is my next option. So here are my questions, and I greatly appreciate the help.
1. What are the advantages and disadvantages of cookies?
2. Where are the cookies stored, and is it possible for someone to access that information?
3. You hear horror stories of hackers accessing the different cookies saved on a person's computer, and from there gradually piecing together enough information about that person, to hack into nearly every account they have. How probable is this? What safeguards can a person take against this happening?
Once again, thank you for any help received.

I attended uni back in the 70's, and as I recall we had to do some actual research for our term papers - like from books in the library, and needed to "document" our research in a footnote for each page.
I guess times have changed a bit since then I guess - anecdotal evidence is permissible now?
