CTM: Difference between Order creation Frame & Maximum earliness

Hi Experts,
Could any one please explain me the difference between Order Creation Frame & Maximum Earliness in CTM Gloabl Customizing and their implact on the planning run
Thanks,
Naveen

Hi,
Order creation frame is a variable planning parameter and has to be set in CTM profile.Using this planning parameter one can define a range within a certain demand has to be fulfilled.In other words a time frame can be set within a supply has to be planned to fulfill a certain demand.
Maximum Earliness is maintained for Planned Orders which is the time period (in days) before the demand date, within which SAP APO can create planned orders early.
Thanks,
Dipankar

Difference between ECC 6.0 and earlier versions

Hi,
one of the difference between ECC 6.0 and earlier versions is that instead 'WS_UPLOAD' and 'WS_DOWNLOAD' in ECC we should use 'GUI_UPLOAD' and 'GUI_DOWNLOAD' respectively.
(of course SPDD and SPRO tcodes is known by everone i suppose)
Similarly can u all put down some differences here, atleast one entry by each, I think we can make a good docu. I have searched the net for the differences but could not get much, so by each of us contributing one each, it would become good docu..for all of us.
Thanx in advance

Unicode Errors Encountered and their Solutions
E1. In u201CTEXT MODEu201D the u201CENCODINGu201D addition must be specified.
     Error:
     OPEN DATASET FILE FOR OUTPUT IN TEXT MODE.
     Solution:
     OPEN DATASET FILE FOR OUTPUT IN LEGACY TEXT MODE.
E2. In Unicode, DESCRIBE DISTANCE can only be used with the IN BYTE MODE or IN
      CHARACTER MODE addition.
     Error:
     DESCRIBE DISTANCE BETWEEN T_KOMK AND T_KOMK-HIEBO01 INTO BPOS.
     Solution:
DESCRIBE DISTANCE BETWEEN T_KOMK AND T_KOMK-HIENR01 INTO BPOS
IN CHARACTER MODE.
E3. u201CUSR02-UFLAGu201D must be a byte-type field (Typ X or XSTRING )
     Error:
     IF USR02-UFLAG O YULOCK.
     Solution: Since the data type of USR02-UFLAG is type INT and is compared with data type
                X u2013 Hence the error. So we define a new variable ZULOCK and assign the
                value of USR02-UFLAG to ZULOCK.
              New variable
              DATA: ZULOCK(1) TYPE X.   "APBRP00
              Assign value
                            ZULOCK = USR02-UFLAG.
        Compare -
               IF ZULOCK = YULOCK.   u201Creplace IF USR02-UFLAG O YULOCK.
E4. HT cannot be converted to a Character type field
Error :
WRITE ht TO t_data+10(2).
Solution : Since the data type of ht is a type u2018Xu2019 and the data is been transfer to
         t_data which has a data type u2018Cu2019. value of one data type cannot be copy to
         another data type where one of them is type string .Hence the error occur,
         so the data type of ht is been change to Type u2018Cu2019
     OR
           A Tab ( value 09 ) is introduced as part of the row. The value 09 is not converted in Unicode environment. Instead we need to use class
     Error:
          DATA: BEGIN OF ht,
               x(1) TYPE x VALUE '09',
          END OF ht.
     Solution:
              Define Class after the Tables definition.
                   CLASS cl_abap_char_utilities DEFINITION LOAD.
              Data Defination : Comment internal table HT and define a variable HT type C.
       *   Insert + APRIA00 05/02/2007 Unicode project
       *   DATA: BEGIN OF ht,
     *         x(1) TYPE x VALUE '09'
       *   END OF ht.
     *   Insert - APRIA00 05/02/2007 Unicode project
       DATA HT type C.
       Before using HT assign Horizontal tab.
                 Ht = CL_ABAP_CHAR_UTILITIES=>HORIZONTAL_TAB.
E5. In Unicode programs the u201C#u201D cannot appear in names, as it is does here in the name    u201C#LINESu201D
     Error :
     #LINES                 TYPE I,
     Solution : Since the # is used in the start of name, it is not allowed. We need to
              remove it.
     Solution for the above
     V_LINES                 TYPE I,
E6. In u201CTEXT MODEu201D the u201CENCODINGu201D addition must be specified as well as the addition was required FOR OUTPUT,FOR INPUT, FOR APPENDING OR FOR UPDATE was expected.
     Error:
     OPEN DATASET PATH_NAME IN TEXT MODE.
     Solution:
     Download =     OPEN DATASET PATH_NAME FOR OUTPUT IN LEGACY TEXT MODE.
     Upload        = OPEN DATASET AUSZUG-FILE IN TEXT MODE FOR INPUT ENCODING DEFAULT.
E7. u201CTABu201D must be a character-type data object( data type C,N, D, T or String). Field string)

                into z_download-line separated by tab.
            ( In the above command the two field are to be separated with a horizontal Tab. The earlier      way of assigning the tab value u201809u2019 will not work in Unicode environment.
     Solution:
     Define a class just after the Table defination.
          CLASS cl_abap_char_utilities DEFINITION LOAD.
            Define variable Tab as shown below :
          Data : TAB           TYPE C.

Difference Between Order Change Management & Engineering change Management

Dear,
What is the Difference Between Order Change Management & Engineering change Management ?

Hi,
ECM will help for Master data changes management.
OCM will help to manage changes in Transaction Data like Production Orders.
In brief,you have to first Create Change Number(part of ECM activity).then using that Change number, Master data(like BOM, Routing etc) has to be modified.
Then through OCM affected Transaction Data(like Production Orders) for each change number to be Processed.

What is the difference between Macbook Pro late 2008 & early 2009 ???

I just bought a Macbook Pro on 1/1/09. I'm assuming I got a Late 2008. What is the difference between Macbook Pro late 2008 & early 2009 ???

The "late 2008" macbook pro refers to the new 15 inch MBP currently out, and the early 2009 refers to it's big brother, the 17 inch which is due to come out in the near future.

Difference between "Order to Delivery" and "Order to Cash"

Hi,
This could be a basic question. But, can any one tell me the difference between 'Order to Delivery" and "Order to Cash" Process.
Thanks
Anitha

hi
Order to cash cycle in SD starts with Inquiry -> Quotation -> Order -> Delivery ->Picking-->Post Goods Issue -> Invoice -> Accounting Document generation
For Inquiry
Doc. Type: IN
T.Code: VA11(create), VA12(change), VA13(display)
Process: Quotation
Doc. Type: QT
T.Code: VA21(create), VA22(change), VA23(display)
Process: Order
T.Code: VA01(create), VA02(change), VA03(display)
Doc. Type: OR
For Delivery
Doc. Type: LF
T.Code: VL01N(create), VL02N(change), VL03(display)
For Billing
Doc. Type: F2
T.Code: VF01(cre ate), VF02(change), VF03(display)
For Accounting Document
T.Code: FB03(display)
where as ORDER TO DELIVERY
Delivery Order is the term of core team normally used for Delivery. Ideally insome of the legacy, they do not create Sales Order & use the term Delivery Order for Delivery.
InSAP, we mornally map it as Sales order --> Delivery --> Post Goods issue --> Billing.
At times we have to give meaning to the term sprecified by core team / end user & arrive at SAP terminology.

Difference between ordered by and sorted by?

hi,
Can any1 tell me wats the actual difference between ordered by and sorted by???

Generally speaking, when talking math, one talks about an "ordering" in some set of values. Usually one doesn't actually place them in order; the order is already there, implicit in the values. When talking computer science, one talks about "sorting" because the values may be in a sequence which violates the desired order, and you have to sort the sequence to match the order. "Sorting" isn't as relevant in math because there is no sense of the items being out of sequence when the order is established.
So "order" describes the ideal (which mathematicians care about).
"Sort" describes the practical, the activity needed to make the real match the ideal (which computer sciences care about).
That's my intuitive feeling on it, anyway.

Difference between reference creations

What is the difference between
Object anObject;
Object anObject = null;

They are logically the same. But they are not the same.
The folliwng program does the same number of declarations twice and prints
Run time with no initalisation 579 ms
Run time with initalisation to null 2265 msYou can argue this is next to no difference, but there is a difference.
    public static void main(String[] args) {
        long start = System.currentTimeMillis();
        final int size = 500000000;
        for (int i = 0; i < size; i++) {
            Object a;
            Object b;

The are any difference between the late 2008 and early 2009 15' MacBook Pro

Hello,
This is my first post here so I salute you all. I would like to know if there is any difference between the 15 inch MacBook Pro produced at the end of 2008 and the one produced AFTER iLife 09 has been launched (at the beginning of 2009). I see that the declarations of conformity are a little bit different: http://images.apple.com/euro/compliance/pdf/M98EMC_IntE_EuroDoC.pdf vs http://images.apple.com/euro/compliance/pdf/M98AIntE_EuroDoC.pdf (see the Emissions and wireless radio equipment sections). I don't know if those declarations are relevant and if the fact that they complies with different standards and/or directives means that the hardware is different... What do you think?
Just a little note: I am NOT talking about the late 2009 17' version. I'm referring only at the 15' versions produced before and after the launch of iLife09

Hi, I think I know why Apple is able to offer 8gb ram support on the revised 2.66 MBP and not on the 2.53 or 2.4 MBP.
Take a look at this:
15'' 2.4-2,53 NVDA Chipset
http://s1.guide-images.ifixit.com/igi/oEmmaxSOKDDvZfZh.large
17'' NVDA Chipset
http://s1.guide-images.ifixit.com/igi/SSLSgODWYbiIuTLL.large
There are TWO different revisions. The first is B2 and the latter is B3.
I think that the former does not support 8GB of RAM and the latter does. That explains why the 17'' has support and now the NEWs 15'' also have, Apple gave the 15'' not only a speed bump but also the newer revision of the chipset!

Difference between contract creation and project creation

I am new to Oracle Projects. In Oracle Project Contracts I can see that we create a new contract. Also in Oracle Projects we can create a new Project.
Can anyone please let me know what is the difference between creating a contract and creating a project in Oracle Projects.
Can we create a project based on an already created contract?
Regards

Hi Dina,
thanks for your reply. We are currently implementing Oracle Projects in our company where our main business is construction works.
As you have said that a contract is a commercial agreement between the customer and the contractor. We get a Bill of Quantities(BOQ) along with the contract documents. In the BOQ all the different types of works for the project is defined along with the quantities which are known as BOQ Items. We have to quote our rates for the BOQ items. We generally perform an operation called Rate Analysis of these BOQ Items by assigning various quantities of resources that shall be required to execute each of the BOQ items. Thus we arrive at the cost of each BOQ items. Once the work gets executed, this BOQ happens to be the basis for invoicing or application to the client. So we create our budget based on the BOQ itself. We make our Business plan based on the items of this BOQ itself and also book the expenditure on these BOQ items.
Although we create Project plan using Primavera, there is no one-to-one correspondence between activities of the project plan and the BOQ items. So we cannot really create our budget based on the project plan.
So if we manage everything only on the basis of the BOQ items, we loose important project management related information like earned value management etc. And if we depent only on the Project plan we loose important cost related information.
So we need to plan in such a way so that both these are fused together.
Can you kindly advice me about how to proceed ahead with our implementationso that we can use Oracle Projects optimally for our business.
Thanks & Regards

Difference between Order Header BSD and operation schedule SSD

Hi,
One of your Client is operating on SAP 4.7
There are some cases where Order Header Basic Start Date and operation Schedule Date are no same.
example:
Present Order Basic Start Date 24.06.2011
Present Order Basic Finish Date 01.07.2011
Forward Schedled order.
Operation 1
Operation 2
Work Center has sufficient capacity and is available to perform work 24hrs.
Using planning board CM10 user dispatches operation 1 to 30.06.2011 and operation 2 to 01.07.2011.
The problem is order basic start date is remaining same i.e. 24.06.2011 and not chaning to 30.06.2011.
Can any one please help in this issue.

yes for all order types and also i have observed that most of work order has basic start date as 24.06.2011 when all the operations of orders are scheduled in future dates (date other than 24.06.2011).
The first time scheduling of work order operation is done on 24.06.2011 (CM10) and then after re-scheduling (through IW38) of operation changed the schedule start date but work ordre basic start date remained same i.e 24.06.2011.
Dispite of first time scheduling and then re-scheduling basic start date remained 24.06.2011.
Note: Same profile was selected in both CM10 and IW38 while accessing planning board.
