Advice on SAP BI or ABAP

Hello Gurus,
I have seen this question in forum before , still i am putting this, Sorry for that.
I have work experience of 5.5yrs in SAP , Basically i joined as an ABAPer but here i put into BI project.
from 5.5yrs i have 4.5 hands on exp in ABAP , rest 1 yr i am just in BI project.
I have no knowledge in BI system, neither any training provided in BI. honestly there is not much work in ABAP. just changing some codes in Routines.
Now i am really frustrated as i dont want to continue like this.
My Organization is saying they will provide Training in BI . i am not sure as this is what i am listening from last 6 months.
Assuming i will get some training on BI ,
Shall i stick to BI or shall i move back to ABAP .(getting released from this project), stick to my core competency ABAP with SD/MM . I have sound functional knowledge in SD/MM module.
My question is ,
Is BI will have better career growth in my case in terms of exposure ( if i learned it as compared to ABAP.+SD/MM functional knowledge )
Please guide me , you valuable inputs will help me a lot.
Thanks in advance.

Hi Sagar,
please understand one thing as you become a senior proffessional, industry will look after you to be a multifunctional person, that means you should have knowledge of more than one tool, so if you will take a foot ahead for some other module it will be fruitful to you to get exposure in that field.
Now when it comes to have modules with abap, i will suggest you to go with Webdynpro, Workflow, or UI5 because the combination of these modules plays always more demands in market, and it will be.
But if you are looking for BI , BOBJ or HANA side , its also a very good combination ever.
But please understand one thing, as you are saying that in 2015 you will have only 2 yrs. exposure in BI, so what are you looking for a change in 2015, as far as i concern , never set priority in leaving a current job, untill the situation is too harsh.
So, go with your options you have choosen, when you will see that you have enough exposure you can make a change, but never plans for it on priority basis. (i am sorry if my understandings are wrong).

Thread c)
not applicable to me

Hi all
I've read your entrys.
Saw that the solution is missing.
It can be found in the manuals:
1. Download the "Registry Clean Tool for SAP NetWeaver 2004s ABAP" and use it.
2. Download the latest Version of "SAP NetWeaver 2004s ABAP" and un-rar it.
3. Install the "Microsoft Loopback Adapter" an activate it.
4. Retry to install.
Summary:
So the error 200 was caused for the first time from trying an installation without a Loopback Adapter, and after that from trying to re-install without cleaning the registry.
Now its working fine.

SAP NW7.01 ABAP Trial version installation error on windows 7

I m trying to install SAP NW7.01 ABAP Trial version on my PC having Windows 7 in it. Firstly i have configured MS Loopback Adapter and installed SAP Management Console as describe in Installation guide. Now when i just start to run setup.exe , it just start and giving me   " could not utilize start class:com,installshield.wizard.Wizard " error. i thought it is because of somewhat java.
Then i have set Environment variable--> PATH as C:\j2sdk1.4.2_19\bin   and again try. but doesnt work. Plz help me what to do?? Is this error regarding any java problem or any other??
Currently i have installed this java versions for this.
Java 2 Runtime environment             1.4.2_19
java 2 SDK                                         1.4.2_19

Hi Aakash,
Firstly, I don't think we need to install MMC separately, this should get installed automatically after the installation
of trial version.
I would suggest downgrading the version of java with j2sdk1.4.2_04 to 08 anything between these two.
And try again.
And is the version that you have downloaded compatible with Windows 7.
That coulbe a problem.
Chk this thread also, SAP on Windows 7 Ultimate

Vishnu

That does not automatically start your instance. Have a look at the shortcuts SAP installed in your startmenu. There's both a startscript and a stopscript.

can u give me one example of sap memory and abap memory.

Hi,
SAP Memory
SAP memory is a memory area to which all main sessions within a SAPgui have access. You can use SAP memory either to pass data from one program to another within a session, or to pass data from one session to another. Application programs that use SAP memory must do so using SPA/GPA parameters (also known as SET/GET parameters). These parameters can be set either for a particular user or for a particular program at the time of logon using the SET PARAMETER statement. Other ABAP programs can then retrieve the set parameters using the GET PARAMETER statement. The most frequent use of SPA/GPA parameters is to fill input fields on screens .
example:
ABAP programs can access the parameters using the SET PARAMETER and GET PARAMETERstatements.
To fill one, use:
SET PARAMETER ID pid FIELD f
This statement saves the contents of field f under the ID pid in the SAP memory. The ID pid can be up to 20 characters long. If there was already a value stored under pid, this statement overwrites it. If you double-click pid in the ABAP Editor, parameters that do not exist can be created as a Repository object.
To read an SPA/GPA parameter, use:
GET PARAMETER ID pid FIELD f.
This statement places the value stored under the pid ID into the variable f. If the system does not find any value for pid in the SAP memory, sy-subrc is set to 4. Otherwise, it sets the value to 0.
ABAP Memory
ABAP memory is a memory area that all ABAP programs within the same internal session can access using the EXPORT and IMPORT statements. Data within this memory area remains throughout a sequence of program calls, with the exception of LEAVE TO TRANSACTION. To pass data to a program that you are calling, the data needs to be placed in ABAP memory before the call is made from the internal calling session using the EXPORT statement. The internal session of the called program then replaces that of the calling program. The program called can then read from the ABAP memory using the IMPORT statement. If control is then returned to the program that made the initial call, the same procedure operates in reverse.If a transaction is called using LEAVE TO TRANSACTION, the ABAP memory and the call stack are deleted. They cannot be used for data transfer.
Since objects belonging to ABAP objects can only be accessed within an internal session, it does not make sense and is therefore forbidden (from a syntax point of view) to pass a reference to an object to a calling program through the ABAP memory.
Example:
Export hello to memory id 'Hello_world'.
Import hello from memory id 'Hello_world'

Hi Friends ....Difference between SAP memory and ABAP memory

Hi Friends,
I faced a interview and they ask this question
What is the difference between SAP Memory and ABAP memory..

SAP Memory
SAP memory is a memory area to which all main sessions within a SAPgui have access. You can use SAP memory either to pass data from one program to another within a session, or to pass data from one session to another. Application programs that use SAP memory must do so using SPA/GPA parameters (also known as SET/GET parameters). These parameters can be set either for a particular user or for a particular program using the SET PARAMETER statement.
Other ABAP programs can then retrieve the set parameters using the GET PARAMETER statement. The most frequent use of SPA/GPA parameters is to fill input fields on screens.
ABAP Memory
ABAP memory is a memory area that all ABAP programs within the same internal session can access using the EXPORT and IMPORT statements. Data within this area remains intact during a whole sequence of program calls. To pass data to a program which you are calling, the data needs to be placed in ABAP memory before the call is made. The internal session of the called program then replaces that of the calling program. The program called can then read from the ABAP memory. If control is then returned to the program which made the initial call, the same process operates in reverse.
A simple example of ABAP memory is using the EXPORT/IMPORT statements.
Here in this program, I get the data, export it to memory,
clear out the internal table in my progam, then reimport the data into it and write out the data.
You probably wounldn't do this in a normal program,
but this is how you can pass data from program a to program b when A Submits program B.
report zxy_0002 .
data: it001 type table of t001 with header line.
select * into table it001 from t001.
export it001 = it001 to memory id 'ZXY_TEST'.
clear it001. refresh it001.
import it001 = it001 from memory id 'ZXY_TEST'.
loop at it001.
write:/ it001-bukrs, it001-butxt.
endloop.
SAP Memory
SAP memory is a memory area to which all main sessions within a SAPgui have access.
You can use SAP memory either to pass data from one program to another within a session,
or to pass data from one session to another.
Application programs that use SAP memory must do so using SPA/GPA parameters (also known as SET/GET parameters).
These parameters can be set either for a particular user
or for a particular program using the SET PARAMETER statement.
Other ABAP programs can then retrieve the set parameters using the GET PARAMETER statement.
The most frequent use of SPA/GPA parameters is to fill input fields on screens
ABAP/4 Memory
ABAP memory is a memory area that all ABAP programs within the same internal session can access
using the EXPORT and IMPORT statements.
Data within this area remains intact during a whole sequence of program calls. To pass data
to a program which you are calling,
the data needs to be placed in ABAP memory before the call is made.
The internal session of the called program then replaces that of the calling program.
The program called can then read from the ABAP memory.
If control is then returned to the program which made the initial call, the same process operates in reverse.
SAP memory
The SAP memory, otherwise known as the global memory,
is available to a user during the entire duration of a terminal session.
Its contents are retained across transaction boundaries as well as external and internal sessions.
The SET PARAMETER and GET PARAMETER statements allow you to write to, or read from, the SAP memory.
ABAP/4 memory
The contents of the ABAP/4 memory are retained only during the lifetime of an external session
(see also Organization of Modularization Units).
You can retain or pass data across internal sessions.
The EXPORT TO MEMORY and IMPORT FROM MEMORY statements allow you to write data to, or read data from, the ABAP memory.
