Can somebody explain difference between SYS_REFCURSOR and REFCURSOR

I want to know the exact difference between sys_refcursor and refcursor.

Please do not post Re: SYS_REFCURSOR and CURSOR. It makes them soggy and difficult to light, er, hard to follow.
Thank you for your future co-operation.

Can somebody explain relation between BAM and TrackingHost

In My application I have used BAM API to track some business data.
Is it mandatory to have at lease one tracking host is running to move data between BizTalk Message box database to BAM primary import database?
Thanks
Ammu.

Is it mandatory to have at lease one tracking host is running to move data between BizTalk Message box database to BAM primary import database?--> Yes. There should be at least one tracking host (a BizTalk host which has tracking enabled) to move data
from message box to BAM Primary Import.

Can anyone explain Diff between except and Not in.?

Hi experts,
Sometimes "not in" function is not working.Can anyone tell me the reason.please
Query 1:-
Select POL from table_1 where pol not in (select pol from table_2)
Query 2:-
select pol from table_1 except select pol from table_2
Getting output from Query 2. Query1 dosen't displaying output.
Thanks and Regards

While using Except
the resultant result is given after removing duplicates
the resultant result shall include NULL values as well as present in the source table
While using NOT IN
the resultant result is AS IS from the source table (no duplicate elimination)
But, it DOES ignore the NULL values.
The following code should explain in a better way!
declare @tab1 table ( id int)
insert @tab1 select 1
insert @tab1 select 1
insert @tab1 select 2
insert @tab1 select 2
insert @tab1 select 3
insert @tab1 select NULL
declare @tab2 table ( id int)
insert @tab2 select 2
insert @tab2 select 2
--using NOT IN
--duplicates returned/NULL ignored
select id from @tab1
where id not in (select id from @tab2)
--using NOT EXISTS
--duplicates returned/NULL also returned
select id from @tab1 t1
where not exists(select id from @tab2 t2 where t1.id=t2.id)
--using Except
--duplicates Eliminated/NULL returned
select id from @tab1
EXCEPT
select id from @tab2

Difference between billing and invoice?

Hi all
can anybody say Difference between billing and invoice?
thanks

Hi Ipsit,
Invoice is document indicating to delivery goods and Billing is a receipt of payment
Tables are VBRK & VBRP. For flow, go to transaction VF03, enter document number and hit 'Display Document Flow' button on toolbar
VBRK and VBRP holds billing/invoice details..
Billing Document:
Generic term for invoices, credit memos, debit memos, pro forma invoices and cancellation documents.
The tables are VBRK and VBRP.
2) -- once u do PGI the delivery document will be created. There is no way to stop it.. The thing u can to do go to the list of created deliveries in VL09. Select the delivery doc which u created. There u have the option of reversing the goods or canceling it.
Billing is generic term and u can say invoice is a type of billing document.
After PGI only way left is to cancel it by Using TCODE MBST as this Tcode is used to cancel any material document.
Please Reward If Really Helpful,
Thanks and Regards,
Sateesh.Kandula

Whats the difference between implements and extends!??

Can an interface be extended or not??
If it can whats the difference between implements and extends??
Thank you!

Code Sample:
interface a implements aa{This is illegal. An interface cannot implement another interface. It can only extend another interface.
interface a extends aa{That's the way to do it. As already said above:
An interface can only extend another interface.
A class can extend another class.
A class can implement zero or more interfaces.
So, "implements" is only used for classes that implement interfaces. For the rest, "extends" is used.

Can someone explain the difference between TIER_WEB and TIER_WEBDEV

Hi All,
We have two sets of values in Context file as below.
<TIER_ADWEB oa_var="s_isAdWeb">NO</TIER_ADWEB>
<TIER_ADFORMS oa_var="s_isAdForms">NO</TIER_ADFORMS>
<TIER_ADFORMSDEV oa_var="s_isAdFormsDev">NO</TIER_ADFORMSDEV>
<TIER_ADWEBDEV oa_var="s_isAdWebDev">NO</TIER_ADWEBDEV>
Could you explain the difference between
TIER_WEB and TIER_WEBDEV
and
TIER_ADFORMS and TIER_ADFORMSDEV

These values in a shared APPL_TOP system. Pl see ML Doc 745580.1 (Apply Patches in a Shared Application Tier File System Environment) for an explanation.Not necessarily in Shared APPL_TOP, even in traditional multi-node installation you will find these values in the application context file.
I never came across any document which describes the difference between TIER_WEBDEV and TIER_WEB, I just can say that these variables always have the same value.

HT201471 Sorry can you explain what is difference between cellular and cellular (MM)

Sorry can you explain what is difference between cellular and cellular (MM)

The MM or Millenium Media according to what I can find, refers to the CDMA variation of the Cellular iPad for Verizon Networks.
The non MM version is for GSM carriers like AT&T.

Can Oracle be forced to use the spatial index for sdo_filter in combination with an or clause? Difference between Enterprise and SE?

We’re seeing the following issue: sql - Can Oracle be forced to use the spatial index for sdo_filter in combination with an or clause? - Stack Overflow (posted by a colleague of mine) and are curious to know if this behaviour is due to a difference between standard and enterprise, or could we doing something else wrong in our DB config.?
We have also reproduced the issue on the following stacks:
Oracle SE One 11.2.0.3 (with Spatial enabled)
Redhat Linux 2.6.32-358.6.2.el6.x86_64 #1 SMP Thu May 16 20:59:36 UTC 2013 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux
11.2.0.3.0 Standard Edition and 11.2.0.4.0 Standard Edition (both with Spatial enabled)
Microsoft Windows Server 2003R2 Standard x64 Edition
However, the SQL works fine if we try it on Oracle 11.2.0.3.0 *Enterprise* Edition.
Any help or advice would be much appreciated.
Kindest Regards,
Kevin

In my experience sdo_filter ALWAYS uses the spatial index, so that's not the problem. Since you did not provide the explain plans, we can't say for sure but I think yhu is right: Standard Edition can't use the bitmap operations, and thus it'll take longer to combine the results of the two queries (because the optimizer will surely split this OR up in two parts, then combine them).
BTW: when asking questions about queries here, it would be nice if you posted the queries here as well, so that we do not have to check another website in order to see what you are doing. Plus it will probably get you more answers, because not everyone can be bothered to click on that link. It would also have been nice if you had posted your own answer on the other post here as well, because my recommendation would have been to use union all - but since you already found that out for yourself my recommendation would have been a little late.

Can somebody explain to me how java and xml are related?

Hi guys
im new to java and xml.Been reading a lot regarding java and don't seem to have a problem with it...
the problem is the xml part...im doing a simple GUI project using swing(online store) and i have to convert it to xml
I have absolutely NO IDEA why i must convert my java to xml and have no idea how to do that.I been reading on the net that xml is a exten~ markup language and it is better and useful.
Can somebody explain to me in layman terms
1)how is java and xml related in?
2)why do ppl want to convert java to xml when they can just stick to java
3)what is actually xml...
4)Do i need a program to create xml like i need jcreater to create java application
5)How do we actually convert?is there any links that you guys could tell me?
thank you
tomleo

im new to java and xml.Been reading a lot regarding
java and don't seem to have a problem with it...Okay.
the problem is the xml part...im doing a simple GUI
project using swing(online store) and i have to
o convert it to xmlYou have to? So presumably somebody in a position of authority told you that?
I have absolutely NO IDEA why i must convert my java
to xml and have no idea how to do that.I been reading
on the net that xml is a exten~ markup language and
it is better and useful.I have no idea either (besides which, it doesn't make sense). But why ask us? Somebody told you to do that, ask them why.
Sure, XML is useful. But it isn't a programming language so it can't be used as a substitute for Java.
Can somebody explain to me in layman terms
1)how is java and xml related in?They aren't related, except perhaps in that they are both used in computers.
2)why do ppl want to convert java to xml when they
can just stick to javaThey don't.
3)what is actually xml...Start here for numerous definitions:
http://www.google.ca/search?hl=en&lr=&oi=defmore&q=define:XML
4)Do i need a program to create xml like i need
jcreater to create java applicationNo, XML is just text. But then Java code is just text too.
5)How do we actually convert?is there any links that
you guys could tell me?You don't convert Java to XML. My guess is that because you don't know much about Java or XML, you have misinterpreted something that somebody told you.

Can any one tell me the difference between VK11 and MR21

Hi Folks,
I have changed price of a material using VK12.
When I go to the transaction MR21, it is still showing the old price.
Can any one help what is the difference between VK11 and MR21.
And i which scenarios these two were used?
Thanks in Advance
Gopi Krishna

Hii,
VK11: This is price master record to determine the sale price or discounts or freight or taxes which we going to charge to the final customer. Through this transaction we will determine the price automatically either in sales or billing document. These transaction is only applicable for sales & distribution module for determining the pricing for customers.
The price determined through this we use in revenue realisation.
MR21: Through this trnsaction Finance or Cost users upload the cost of the material. The cost is
Standard Cost or Moving average cost.
Cost= Raw Material CostProcessing Cost(product process cost )Overheads(employee salaries)
This cost is maintained at each material master in accounting view either standard cost or moving average cost.
These cost is determined for every material movement within the company.
Example: Production, transfer posting, goods issue- system post the quantity and at the same time system create an inventory entry i.e accounting entry for the transaction. In this accounting entries, system consider the values from material master for generating accounting entry.
If you upload production for 10 MT of material A and in material master if kept the cost of the material as 1000 then the accounting entry in production time as
Finish Goods Dr 10000
To Cost of Production Cr 10000
These cost also determined sales transaction through VPRS condition type.
Rewards if it helps

Can you tell me some differences between R2 and R3 systems?

Hi,
Can you tell me some differences between R2 and R3 systems?
I guess R2 is used only for mainframe systems some time back. But i dont know why we prefered R3 over R2.
Please clarify this!
Thanks,
Venkatesh.R.

SAP R/3 is
Client server
3 tier
Presentation
Application
Database
Relatively hardware and database independent
ABAP/4 applications runs on application servers.
Dispatcher, shared memory, gateway, work processes are major components of an application server.
SAP R/3 offers
Comprehensive suite of integrated applications meeting the needs of most business
Best practice process design
Ability to configure to
Industry sector
Unique business requirements
In a R/2 System - it is a 2 Tier System based on Mainframe Systems with Intelligent terminals
R/3 is based 3 tier Client Server architechture and supports the R/2 system as well.
R/3 Middleware -
Client server
Uses underlying relational databases
Oracle
SQL server
Ingress
Sybase
Its graphical user interface
Sap GUI
hence R/3 is preffered over R/2 systems because they support Client Server Architecture which is easily configurable,scalable and can integrate with ERP systems and integrate with SOA or Web based Apps.

Please give the diagrams to explain the difference between MVC1 and MVC2

Please give the functional diagrams to explain the difference between MVC1 and MVC2

there is no MVC1 or MVC2, only the MVC pattern. The implementation of the MVC is fairly open-ended and there are some variations that are not named as different "versions" because each variation still has the same pattern: there is a model, there are views and there are controllers. What you list as a "feature" of MVC2 in your other post:
http://forum.java.sun.com/thread.jspa?threadID=719812&tstart=0
is merely the implementation of a front controller (becoming more popular nowadays) in stead of using multiple controllers. There is no change in pattern, only in implementation.

Can anybody give me the difference between Catt and Ecatt

Hi gurus,
Can any body give me the difference between catt and ecatt.

Hi,
I think this is new technology in sap.
I know little bit of this can u go through this.
eCATT (extended Computer Aided Test Tool)
What is eCATT?
eCATT is an SAP Testing Tool used to automate & test business scenarios in R/3. Each test generates a detailed log that documents the test process and results. If the testing is smooth without any errors, this means that the business scenarios mapped in R/3 are correct. If the test results in error then the problem can be analyzed using the error log that is generated.
eCATT enables automatic testing in SAP GUI for Windows and SAP GUI for Java.
Features of eCATT:
Following functions can be performed using eCATT:
Test transactions, reports and scenarios.
Call BAPIs and function modules.
Test remote systems.
Check authorizations (user profiles).
Test updates (database, applications, GUI).
Set up customizing tables.
Test the effect of changes to customizing settings.
Perform load testing.
Check system messages.
Integrated with Test Workbench, so allows proper management of scripts using SCAT transaction.
Supports CATT migration to eCATT.
All eCATT Objects are Repository Objects. Therefore one can take advantage of Standard SAP Transport Tools.
eCATT Objects can easily download & upload in XML with XSD format.
There can be several versions of Test Scripts, which allows different implementations with different releases.
The separation of Test Scripts, Test Data & System Data allows for a considerable degree of reuse.
Why eCATT?
CATT is no longer supported by SAP for the creation of new developments. Hence all the test scripts developed in CATT are now need to migrate/Update to eCATT. Comparative to manual testing, the following are advantages of using eCATT:
Due to automation, testing time is reduced to a large extent.
Due to automation, less manpower is required for testing. This helps financially.
Due to automation, manual errors are reduced to large extent. Hence results in error free testing. This helps, as no further problems will occur while the usage of R/3 system by end users and hence increases the efficiency.
Proved to be extremely useful in implementation projects.
In regression testing, automated test scripts are an ideal method of quickly detecting errors. Automatic test logs make it easy to reproduce test results, enabling fast analysis and planning of further activities, leading to cost savings for the customer.
Differences between CATT and eCATT?
Till date, CATT could only be used with the R/3 system. eCATT (which is available with SAP Web Application Server 6.20) covers the automatic testing in SAPGUI for Windows and SAP GUI for Java. For other GUIs and Applications, eCATT provides an interface for external tools. This allows companies to perform automated tests from an SAP system in a complete IT solution landscape across system boundaries. These new options enable complete automation of solution landscapes under standard Windows and Web-based user interfaces- resulting in low-cost operation of an IT Solution.
eCATT (extended Computer Aided Test Tool)
eCATT requisites
Web Application Server (WAS) 6.20 or more.
SAPGUI 6.20 or more.
R/3 4.6C or more. (Target system must have sufficient support package level (Details available in SAP Note 519858) or SAP R/3 Enterprise Release 4.7).
Before creating Test Scripts using eCATT, some system settings need to be done:
Maintain table T000.
1.      Go to transaction SM31
2.      Enter T000 and chose MAINTAIN.
3.      In the Change View Clients: Overview screen, select the relevant client and choose Details
4.      In the CATT and eCATT Restrictions field, select CATT and eCATT allowed.
5.      Click on SAVE.
Enabling scripting at the Front-end
1.      On any SAP GUI screen, choose Customizing of Local Layout.
2.      Choose Options
3.      Choose Scripting Tab
4.      Select Enable Scripting
5.      Click Apply and then OK.
Enabling Scripting on the Application Server
1.      Go to transaction RZ11.
2.      On the Maintain Profile Parameters screen, enter sapgui/user_scripting.
3.       Choose Display.
4.      If the Current Value is not set to TRUE, then click on Change Value:
5.      Enter TRUE in the New Value.
6.      Click on SAVE.
