Diff between Thin client and Rich client

Hi Everyone,
Can someone give me a clear picture of the what is the diff between Thin client and Rich client.
Thanks,
Krishna

Hi,
thick client (rich client) has/stores all the data inside itself
so it can do application processing without the server with data
thin client uses resources from host computer (from server)
and wihtout that you are not able to work with that kind of client
does that answer your question ?

Diff between Java,Window and HTML Clients

Hi can any body clear me
what is the difference between
1. JAVA Client
2. Windows Client
3. HTML Client.
regards
mmukesh

The Windows client requires SAPGUI for Windows loaded on the dekstop (400+ MB of disk), but it works most efficiently.
The HTML client requires an ITS and is not as efficient, but need no specialized software on the desktop.
The Java client is almost never used except by Mac and Unix users!
Cheers
try searching SDN for SAPGUI variants for more details

HFM Thin Client and Thick Client

Hi
can anyone tell me what is HFM thin client and thick client
Thanks

Thick client is the actual application client view. Most administrators limit that view to only them and provide a workspace (the thin client) as a method of accessing hfm. This is because more can be done in terms of metadata and security changes in the thick client than the thin client.

Difference between system copy and Remote Client copy?

Hi,
Can any body suggest me , What are the major difference between System copy and Remote Client Copy.
As per my knowledge , Both are different
1.In system copy entire data recovered mean copy from Source to target
2.In Remote client copy All Client data can't me import if you choose SAP_ALL profile also
I hope Transaction data and user data can't copied
Anybody share this Question and Give me some idea about this
If anybody give brief explanation that is very gratefull.
regards,
Balaram

Hi,
System copy will replicate all database from source to target system.
In remote copy only client in which you are performing the copy will get refresh. Also, remote client copy will be done between systems on same patch level. with SAP_ALL profile you can bring all data in target system including your transactional data.
Thanks

Difference between Golden Client and Master Client

Dear,
What is the Difference between Golden Client and Master Client?
Thanx & Regards,
Mohammad Nabi,
[email protected]

Golden Client is similar or is the the same as Development Client, which should not be used for testing.
Master Client ???
Note on SAP Landscape:
Landscape is like a server system or like a layout of the servers or some may even call it the architecture of the servers viz. SAP is divided into three different landscape DEV, QAS and PROD.
- DEV would have multiple clients for ex: 190- Sandbox, 100- Golden, 180- Unit Test.
- QAS may again have multiple clients for ex: 300- Integration Test, 700 to 710 Training.
- PROD may have something like a 200 Production.
These names and numbers are the implementer's discreet on how they want it or they have been using in their previous implementations or how is the client's business scenario.
Now whatever you do in the Sandbox doesn't affect the other servers or clients. Whenever you think you are satisfied with your configuration and you think you can use it moving forward, you RE-DO it in the golden client (remember, this is a very neat and clean client and you cannot use it for rough usage). As you re-do everything that you had thought was important and usable, you get a transport request pop up upon saving every time. You save it under a transport request and give your description to it. Thus the configuration is transported to the Unit Test client (180 in this example).
You don't run any transaction or even use the SAP Easy Access screen on the 100 (golden) client. This is a configuration only client. Now upon a successful transport by the Basis guy, you have all the configuration in the Testing client, just as it is in the Golden client. The configuration remains in sync between these two clients.
But in the Testing client you can not even access SPRO (Display IMG) screen. It's a transaction only client where you perform the unit test. Upon a satisfactory unit test, you move the good configuration to the next SERVER (DEV). The incorrect or unsatisfactory configuration is corrected in Golden (may again as well be practised in the sandbox prior to Golden) and accordingly transported back to 180 (Unit Test) until the unit test affected by that particular config is satisfactory.
The Golden client remains the 'database' (if you wanna call it that) or you may rather call it the 'ultimate' reference client for all the good, complete and final configuration that is being used in the implementation.
In summary:
Landscape : is the arrangement for the servers
IDES : is purely for education purpose and is NOT INCLUDED in the landscape.
DEVELOPMENT ---> QUALITY -
> PRODUCTION
DEVELOPMENT : is where the the consultants do the customization as per the company's requirement.
QUALITY : is where the core team members and other members test the customization.
PRODUCTION : is where the live data of the company is recorded.
A request will flow from Dev->Qual->Prod and not backwards.
1. Sandbox server: In the initial stages of any implementation project, You are given a sandbox server where you do all the configuration/customization as per the companies business process.
2. Development Server: - Once the BBP gets signed off, the configuration is done is development server and saved in workbench requests, to be transported to Production server.
3. Production Server: This is the last/ most refined client where the user will work after project GO LIVE. Any changes/ new development is done is development client and the request is transported to production.
These three are landscape of any Company. They organized their office in these three way. Developer develops the program in Development server and then transport it to test server. In testing server tester check/test the program and then transport it to Production Server. Later it will deploy to client from production server.
Presentaion Server- Where SAP GUI has.
Application Server - Where SAP Installed.
Database Server - Where Database installed.

Difference between native client and workstation client.

hi,
I am confused with the difference between native client and workstation client.In
some docs,it is said that native client is one which run on the same system as
the server,in other it is said running on other machine in the same domain.So
what about workstation client?So can anyone please helpme out in knowing this
difference?

what about workstation client?So can anyone please helpme out in knowing this
difference?The simple answer is that /WS clients are compiled with the -w option.
The complicated answer has to do with how the client connects to Tuxedo during the
tpinit(), and all subsequent traffic. A Tuxedo Domain (instance) has a Bulletin
Board, which is a chunk of shared memory with all kinds of information about Servers
and Clients. A Native Client, since it is running on the same machine that the
Bulletin Board exists on, can directly access the shared memory. However, /WS client
(also called a remote client) cannot access this shared memory. Instead, we have the
WSL server to make connections with, and then WSH processes that access the Bulletin
Board on behalf of the remote client.
So Native Clients run on the same machine as the Servers and where the Bulletin Board
is located, and have direct access to shared memory and other IPCs. Workstation
Clients/WS Client/Remote Clients (all the same thing) cannot access IPCs and have the
WSH do it on their behalf.
In NT, the Tuxedo IPC Service mimics Unix IPCs, and so all the above is still true.

Network bandwidth requirement between MDM server and MDM Clients

The MDM Sizing document for 5.5 states that 'a network connection between MDM Servers and MDM clients should be at least 100 Mbps'. Is this true? This would preclude MDM being offered as a hosted service. I'm interested in MDM Catalogue for SRM, so the catalogue content managers would need the import and data manager clients.

One factor I noticed, in our project...
I would recommend a 4 GB RAM for someone who is working with Import Manager.
As far as the Network connection goes, I am not sure what the requirements are.
We have faced several issues when the end user's laptop are less than 2 GB.
If someone is working with Image Manager, then I would recommend 4GB.
For bulk imports, I would use Import Server.

In LSMW, what is diff between LSMW-BAPI and LSMW-IDOC

hello all
In LSMW, what is diff between LSMW-BAPI and LSMW-IDOC

Hi Swamy,
The differences between IDoc and BAPI are as follows:
IDOC
IDocs are text encoded documents with a rigid structure that are used to exchange data between R/3 and a foreign system.
Idocs are processed asynchronously and no information whatsoever is returned to the client.
The target system need not be always online. The IDOC would be created and would send the IDOC once the target system is available (tRFC concept). Hence supports guaranteed delivery.
With asynchronous links the sub-process on the client can be finished even if the communication line or the server is not available. In this case the message is stored in the database and the communication can be done later.
The disadvantage of asynchronous links is that the sub-process on the server cannot return information to the calling sub-process on the client. A special way for sending information back to the client is required. In addition, a special error handling mechanism is required to handle errors on the receiving side.
IDOCs may be more changeable from release to release.
IDOCs are poorly documented.
BAPI
BAPIs are a subset of the RFC-enabled function modules, especially designed as Application Programming Interface (API) to the SAP business object, or in other words: are function modules officially released by SAP to be called from external programs.
BAPIs are called synchronously and (usually) return information.
For BAPIs the client code needs to do the appropriate error handling.
Problems with synchronous links occur if the communication line or the server is temporarily not available. If this happens, the sub-process on the client cannot be finished (otherwise there would be data inconsistencies).
Synchronous links have the advantage that the sub-process on the server can return values to the sub-process on the client that has started the link.
BAPIs are not totally immune to upgrades.
BAPIs are reasonably well documented.

Difference between Thin Drivers and Thick Drivers

hi all,
can any one tell me the difference between Thin Drivers and Thick Drivers.
regards
ravi

OCI is Oracle Call Interface. That's the lowest-level client API Oracle offers and the API that every thick client application eventually uses. For example, a C++ application using ADO would use the OLE DB driver which is itself written in OCI.
From a deployment standpoint, the major difference is that the thin driver can be deployed to any machine that has Java installed. The OCI driver can only be deployed to machines that have the Oracle client installed.
From a performance & functionality standpoint, there are features that only the OCI driver provides. Depending on the application, the OCI driver may also be faster.

There are so many differences between the version in different objects
I will explain in two or more objects the difference
1 in the customer master in 4.6 version there is no partner function tab in the customer in xd01 t-code
and also there is no CIN tab in that version
but it is there in the 4.7 EE version
This is the major change from the 4.6cc to 4.7EE
2. in 4.7EE there is some settings that are related for CIN
which cannot be done in 4.7EE that means they need some patches for doing the configuration setting for the CIN
But we can do the same in the 6.0 version
These are the some of the settings that are differed in the two versions and in that two objects

Diff between Seeburger Adapter and File Adapter

Hi All,
My company needs to interact with some banks and the banks are particular that they want SFTP, which is not supported by File Adapter, so we have decided to go with Seeburger adapter.
Now what are the differences between File adapter and seeburger adapter?
I believe that Seeburger adapter does not support File Content Conversion, Archiving etc.
Could you all pls put some light on the diff between file adapter and seeburger adapter when it comes to dealing with files?
Xier

Hi
You are aware with working of File Adapter.
The most direct way of using the Seeburger adaptors is to configure the BIC as a module. There is a software component from seeburger called bicmapper which will allow you to
1. Define or import the inbound message metadefinition in various formats ( edifact, xml,...)
2. Using a mapping create an xml variant as the output metadefinition or edifact in the other direction.
3. Create a one to one mapping between input en output.
4. Export the metadata in xsd or sda format for import in XI
5. Generate an SDA which can be deployed in XI and used as a module.
Have a look here,

Diff. between Tax Code and Condition Types

Hi,
What is the diff. between Tax Code and Condition Type???
Why we maintain Tax Codes under Invoice Tab in PO, when Condition Types are available for Calculation Procedure...???
Please guide..

hi..
Tax code : Tax code in some what more specific for calculating the tax...some material is having 2% tax..some having 3 % tax..etc..and these are input tax...so..these tax code will be of type input tax..
now..based on the nature of tax type amount will be calculated....
suppose tax code is calculation of 2 condtion type so ..we can do it in tax code conditon record fv11 also..
so..tax code can be a combination of cond type...
where as through cond type also we can also achieve this..by using one statistical cond type...
Cond Type : cond type is for the daily pricing configuration..how system will calculate the price for a centain material we can make define the rules here...

Diff between interactive report and interactive alv

Diff between interactive report and interactive alv? Suppose I have been given certain program then how I will diffrentiate that this prog should be done in interactive alv or interactive report.

hi
both are used for same purpose
interactive report means an output list which displays basic details & allow user to interact, so that a new list is populated based on user-selection. With interactive list, the user can actively control data retrieval and display during the session.
I suggest to use ALV.by using ALV we can display in Grid as well as list format.
Output format will be good . Sorting,Filtering facilities are provided by itself.We can have column headings also.
