Can any please explain the integration business process between PS and CS

Dear Guru's
Can any please explain the integration business process between Project systems (PS) and customer service (CS).
Business Process: We do machinery Erection or commissioning, later we do provide service warranty for one year.
How we map this Business scenario in sap.
Regards,
Bhanu

basic steps for such a process would be
1) Use PS functionality for your machinery erection or commisioning work. Once the physical work is completed then close porject
2) Use CS functionality for warranty and service - set up the work as a functional location on customer site (PM/CS functionality)
3) Use service order to manage any service calls on the object which could require billing via SD module - bill value may be zero if under warranty

Can any one give the difference

can any one give the difference
between normal java class and java bean
Is every java bean is a java class

A java bean is a class (always)
A class does not have to be a java bean:
For a bean you need to have a no argument constructor
follow any of the other java bean guidelines/requirements...

What is the difference between standard,sorted and hash table

can anyone say what is the difference between standard,sorted and hash tabl

Hi,
Standard Tables:
Standard tables have a linear index. You can access them using either the index or the key. If you use the key, the response time is in linear relationship to the number of table entries. The key of a standard table is always non-unique, and you may not include any specification for the uniqueness in the table definition.
This table type is particularly appropriate if you want to address individual table entries using the index. This is the quickest way to access table entries. To fill a standard table, append lines using the (APPEND) statement. You should read, modify and delete lines by referring to the index (INDEX option with the relevant ABAP command). The response time for accessing a standard table is in linear relation to the number of table entries. If you need to use key access, standard tables are appropriate if you can fill and process the table in separate steps. For example, you can fill a standard table by appending records and then sort it. If you then use key access with the binary search option (BINARY), the response time is in logarithmic relation to
the number of table entries.
Sorted Tables:
Sorted tables are always saved correctly sorted by key. They also have a linear key, and, like standard tables, you can access them using either the table index or the key. When you use the key, the response time is in logarithmic relationship to the number of table entries, since the system uses a binary search. The key of a sorted table can be either unique, or non-unique, and you must specify either UNIQUE or NON-UNIQUE in the table definition. Standard tables and sorted tables both belong to the generic group index tables.
This table type is particularly suitable if you want the table to be sorted while you are still adding entries to it. You fill the table using the (INSERT) statement, according to the sort sequence defined in the table key. Table entries that do not fit are recognised before they are inserted. The response time for access using the key is in logarithmic relation to the number of
table entries, since the system automatically uses a binary search. Sorted tables are appropriate for partially sequential processing in a LOOP, as long as the WHERE condition contains the beginning of the table key.
Hashed Tables:
Hashes tables have no internal linear index. You can only access hashed tables by specifying the key. The response time is constant, regardless of the number of table entries, since the search uses a hash algorithm. The key of a hashed table must be unique, and you must specify UNIQUE in the table definition.
This table type is particularly suitable if you want mainly to use key access for table entries. You cannot access hashed tables using the index. When you use key access, the response time remains constant, regardless of the number of table entries. As with database tables, the key of a hashed table is always unique. Hashed tables are therefore a useful way of constructing and
using internal tables that are similar to database tables.

Can Anybody explain me the difference between a Bapi and a webservice?

Can Anybody explain me the difference between a Bapi and a webservice?

Hi Anil,
BAPI
BAPI is a library of functions that are released to the public
as an interface into an existing SAP system from an external
system.A BAPI function is a function module that
can be called remotely using the RFC technology
BAPI are RFC enabled function modules. the difference between RFc and BAPI are business objects. You create business objects and those are then registered in your BOR (Business Object Repository) which can be accessed outside the SAP system by using some other applications (Non-SAP) such as VB or JAVA.
In this case you only specify the business object and its method from external system in BAPI there is no direct system call. while RFC are direct system call Some BAPIs provide basic functions and can be used for most SAP business object types. These BAPIs should be implemented the same for all business object types. Standardized BAPIs are easier to use and prevent users having to deal with a number of different BAPIs. Whenever possible, a standardized BAPI must be used in preference to an individual BAPI. It is not possible to connect SAP to Non-SAP systems to retrieve data using RFC alone. RFC can acces the SAP from outside only through BAPI and same is for vice versa access.
Webservice
In simpler terms, WebService is an application on the Web/Internet. Wheneever Service is requested by the user, it provides the service (i.e Request/Response)
A web service is a collection of protocols and standards used for exchanging data between applications or systems
In SAP world, we can expose an application into the Webservice. For e.g We can expose ABAP programs into Webservice.
XI uses SOAP adapter to communicate with webservices see below...why only soap adpater???
-> Some remote clients or Web services providers are only able to communicate by means of SOAP messages
->SOAP adapter enables you to exchange SOAP message between remote clients and Web Service Servers and the Integration Server.
-> The SOAP Adapter provides a runtime environment that includes various SOAP components for the processing of SOAP message.
-> You use the SOAP adapter to connect such systems to the Integration Server directly
-> The SOAP adapter uses a helper class to instantiate and control these SOAP components
->The SOAP adapter receives a msg from the remote client or Web service provider, converts the SOAP protocol into XI msg protocol and then sends the msg to the Integration Server to be processed further.
Basically RFCs BAPI are all SAP oriented, Webservices are language / environement independent. So, all one has to do is publish a Webservice and any external system by providing the data in the correct format, can get the approopriate response back.

Can Anybody explain me the difference between a A2X and a A2A Service?

Can Anybody explain me the difference between a A2X and a A2A Service

I dont think A2X refers to b2b Scenario as there is a big difference between B2B and A2A, this is quite a debatable arena. In the present case A2X can be where the application under consideration is communicating with an unknown third party application of which the only details we have are the field data to be sent/recieved etc. Its used more to describe a third party app, so its to be considered as an x-App. can be any j2ee app or .net app, the X here is used as a variable to denote the unknown till it becomes known..in which case the documents start referring to it as A2A.....
Hope that helps

Older iPads got 3G service and were called Wi-Fi + 3G. Newer iPads can connect to faster cellular networks and those are given different names by the major carrier so to simplify things Apple calls the newer models Wi-Fi + Cellular.
iPads with 3G or Cellular are NOT used like a mobile phone. They do not make phone calls or send SMS or MMS text messages, They do connect to the data network and can connect to the web.

What is the difference between Standard text and Text Symbols?

Hi,
1.Difference between Standard text and text symbol,?
2. Which we use Standard symbol?

Text symbol
Text symbols are symbols representing text elements. In fact, a text symbol can be defined for every text elements. The reading of the form is easier in the SAPscript editor. The name of the text symbol must not exceed 32 characters and its value 60 characters. The value assignement can be done in two ways:
- Using the following command: "/: DEFINE &SYMBOL&='TEST_SYMBOLE'"
- Using a standard text symbol.
The text symbol value is temporary stored. When the print program finishes the execution, the text symbol does not exist anymore. The text symbol must have a value when it is declared.
Also check this link,
http://www.supinfo-projects.com/en/2005/forms_sapscript_en/5/
Standard text are good, if you are using them in more than one SAPScript, because you have to maintain them only once, and not in every SAPScript.
It is really good to write rarely changing texts into the SO10 standard texts (for example company name, and address).
standard text is not always used in scripts. when ever u want to display some data u need to use standard text so that the data gets displayed. Say, u have a large piece of document which needs to be printed at end of script... rather than writing the whole thing in script, we create standard text using SO10 and then use the name along with standard text in script.

Can any software provide the printing service for SAP?

I need printers for production tags. It is something like a label for the pack of goods.
I will have to print different tags for different customers as they requested. If better I can find some software which can easily change the layout of printer, with simple GUI, people can just dragging to the correct position.
Please give me some advice.

The tags will be hard to modify by SAP scripts.
I need to find a easier solution, so that maybe even the end user can make customized product tag.
Please give some advice. Thank you.

Can any one brief the difference between MSDN and Developer licensing

We are looking at the licensing for SQL Server for our development Team.
The scenario will be a a common DB server for entire development team.
MSDN is a user based licensce which doesn't suits for our requirement.
Any help on this with appropriate licencing will be appreciated
Thank you
Shahan

Could you please explain difference and limitation between MSDN and Developer edition
The Developer Edition is available to everybody. It costs
$59.95 in the Microsoft Store. But it's only available to be used in *development and testing* scenarios. You cannot use Developer Edition for production purposes. Developer Edition has equivalent functionality to Enterprise Edition.
Within the MSDN Library there are also media and licenses available for the other editions of SQL Server. These instances, also, are only available for development and testing scenarios, but there are scenarios in which one might wish to *TEST* against a
Standard Edition, Business Intelligence edition , or Enterprise Edition installation rather than a Developer Edition instance.
The MSDN Library subscription is licensed on a per-user basis, so anybody using those three editions (Standard, BI, Enterprise) must also hold an MSDN Subscription, or you must own SQL CALs for those users to use Std/BI/Ent editions.

If all your datafiles of all tablespaces are AUTOEXTENSIBLE (YES), then you should get entry like
CPM_DAT 10240 5500 4740 46 %.
Now, maxspace is calculated as sum((((8192*maxextend)/1024)/1024)) from table SYS.FILEXT$. maxextend signifies the maximum number of blocks that a file_id (datafile) can extend upto. That is, as the datafile is AUTOEXTENSIBLE, it has been allocated a minimum extend initially and then it can INCREMENT BY some particular EXTENTs until it reach MAX EXTENTS. So, this maxentend denote the same. Now if your database is using 8K block size (show parameter DB_BLOCK_SIZE), then we can get the maximum size of the datafile it can grow upto by using 8192*maxextend, and converted to MB (/1024/1024).
USEDSPACE and SIZE_GB calculated sam way using SUM(BYTES) from dba_data_files, just one is in MB and another in GB.
FREESPACE in 1st query is calculated as MAXSPACE - USEDSPACE, that is, space available for the file_id(datafile) to grow until reached maxextend. That is, we can guarantee that the datafile will not throw error until this value is reached and can be used out of the operating system disk space. It doesn't signify the free space for the datafile available in DB. FREE_GB in 2nd query signifies that.
% FREE is usual.

What is the difference between logical ROWID and physical ROWID

hello
can u please explain the difference between logical ROWID and physical ROWID
regards,

from the docs (a 30 sec search)
Physical rowids store the addresses of rows in ordinary tables (excluding index-organized tables), clustered tables, table partitions and subpartitions, indexes, and index partitions and subpartitions.
Logical rowids store the addresses of rows in index-organized tables.

Can any please highlight the difference betweeen standard SAP and IS Retai
