Diff in functionality betwen centralised and decentralised Warehouse magmt

Hi Gurus,
Could anybody clarify the difference in functionality between centralized and decentralized warehouse management linked with inventory management in SAP System.
mail me related doc or pdf to mai ID: [email protected]
fFull points for answer
regards,
Venkatesh

Hello Venkatesh,
Functionality are same in centralized warehouse management and decentralized management, but is all about the volume of transactions, system performance and independency.
The following document will give you very good idea about the decentralized warehouse management.

Diff between function,procedure/packages and Diff bet delete,truncate,drop

Dear all
I am your pal ranga from IT capital bangalore india. I would like have detail discussion with respect to subject. Pls discuss
Thanks and Regards
B.Rangarajan

Justin gave good advise but here is the short version of the answer just for the heck of it
Function => stored code suitable for use in the select list of a query and in the where clause conditions that generally accepts one parameter and returns one value. Allows user to extend list of Oracle provided row queries.
Procedure => stored code designed to return one or more values to the caller. Procedures are generally called from other stored code routines or directly from the user application and not as part of a query or DML statement.
Package => a collection of stored procedures and functions
Delete => DML row operation to remove rows from a table
Truncate => DDL operation to quicky and with minimum overhead mark a table and its associated indexes as empty
Drop => DDL operation to remove a table or other object from the database
Maybe these definitions will help until you cover the reading. You can also learn this from the Concepts manual. If you are a DBA this manual is where you should start. For a Developer I would start with the Application Developers - Fundamentals.

Diff betwen Simple and Advanced function

Hi,
What is the the diff betwen Simple and Advanced user defined function in message mapping ?
Thanks,
Ram

Hi,
Simple function : Simple functions without paramters work like constants and produce the target element exactly once for each context.
if I use simple Functions (Which should be called every time and context, the target field should be build - in a single context) and advanced function(which should identify, depending on the result of the actual simple function call values from queued source fields) in a single element
Advance function : Advanced functions with paramters seem to produce the target element for each context
If you use advanced Functions, its little more complicate, then you have allready to provide a queue, which tells the advanced function - how many times to run and how how many result entries to create, 'cause these must match with the number of occurency of your target element (in simple words: you control the number of runs, that your single field mapping is processed).

Difference between 1.Centralised 2.Decentralised 3.Lean Warehouse

Difference between
1.Centralised 2.Decentralised 3.Lean Warehouse

Hi,
Centralised warehouse: manage goods movements and stock changes in the warehouse at storage bin level.
Decentralised warehouse: standalone system, is used for the storage of goods and for the distribution of goods, represents the link between internal and external logistics.
3rd party ERP also can be integrated with Decentralised warehouse.
Lean warehouse - Inventory can be managed at storage location level, can not be managed at bin level using the quants.
Solely for goods receipts and goods issues.
Implement Lean WM in a fixed bin warehouse;
Random storage is not possible.
Lean wm does not update stocks at bin level
Adv: reprint transfer orders
split transfer orders
Disadv: can not process stock differences
Thanks,

Diff b/w Data warehouse and Business Warehouse

Hi all,
what is the Diff b/w Data warehouse and Business Warehouse?

hi..
The diferrence between Datawarehousing and Business Warehouse are as follows.
DataWarehousing is the concept and BIW is a tool that uses this concept in Business applicaitons.
DataWarehousing allows you to analyze tons of data (millions and millions of records of data) in a convinent and optimum way, it is called BIW when applied to Business applications like analyzing the sales of a company.
Advantages- Consedering the volume of business data, BIW allows you to make decisions faster, I mean you can analyze data faster. Support for multiple languges easy to use and so on.

Diff between LIS,LO,COPA and Genric extarctions.

HI,
Can anyone brief me the diff between LIS,LO,COPA and Genric extarctions.

Hi,
LIS:
The Logistics Information System (LIS) is a data warehouse used for reporting in all of the application areas in Logistics (LO).
Typically, the data stored in the LIS is an aggregated subset of the data stored for your transactions. For example, you would not usually find the full information stored with all sales order documents. Instead, you would find key field values such as order quantities, total order costs, and item costs. These values could also be stored according to business entities such as sales organization, distribution channel, division, and sold-to party. Similarly, the document detail for all material movements is typically not stored, but the aggregated stock quantities and values are stored based on plant and material.
COPA:
Profitability Analysis (PA) is an integrated component in the SAP R/3 system.
All of the data related to profitability from the other SAP R/3 applications is mapped in CO-PA in accordance with the corresponding business transactions.
This allows you to transfer into CO-PA billing document data from SD, cost object costs from CO-PC, and overall costs from overall cost controlling.
CO-PA collects all of the OLTP data for calculating contribution margins (sales, cost of sales, overhead costs)
CO-PA also has powerful reporting tools and planning functions
Generic Extractors:
When should you use generic extractors?
Business Content does not contain a DataSource for your application.
The application does not feature its own generic delta extraction method
You are using your own programs in SAP R/3 to populate the tables
The tools for generic data extraction can be used to generate an extractor for all applications.

Wht is diff b/w sy-ucomm and ok code

hi,
what is diff b/w sy-ucomm and ok-code
Regards,
Rani.

Hi,
sy-ucomm is for doing the functions what the user wishes to do at that particular event. You use it in menus and other place . this mainly in using <pfstatus>
ok_code is generally used in screen as of I have used. You will define the function in the screen. and you can use it in the main program.
ok_code acts just as a temporary variable that stores the value of sy-ucomm.
When user interacts with the screen elements, the function code that you have assigned is filled in the sy-ucomm field which is turn gets reflected in OK_CODE.
In your ABAP programs, you should work with the OK_CODE field instead of SY-UCOMM. There are two reasons for this: Firstly, the ABAP program has full control over fields declared within it, and secondly, you should never change the value of an ABAP system field. However, you should also always initialize the OK_CODE field in an ABAP program for the following reason:
In the same way that the OK_CODE field in the ABAP program and the system field SY-UCOMM receive the contents of the corresponding screen fields in the PAI event, their contents are also assigned to the OK_CODE screen field and system field SYST-UCOMM in the PBO event. Therefore, you must clear the OK_CODE field in the ABAP program to ensure that the function code of a screen is not already filled in the PBO event with an unwanted value. This is particularly important when the next PAI event can be triggered with an empty function code (for example, using ENTER). Empty function codes do not affect SY-UCOMM or the OK_CODE field, and consequently, the old field contents are transported.

Diff. b/w 3.5 and 3.0b

Hi bwers,
Please let me know the diff. b/w 3.5 and 3.0b. Tell me in an explanation way rather than sending the documents. Thanks in advance.
And one more query is i have a cube consisting of a 3requests in green and 1 red request and a 3 requests green.. Is it possible to delete that red request and if so what will be the affect ..

Hi,
the main difference of 3.5 in respect to 3.0b is the broadcasting and some other front-end functions... The datawarehousing workbench is the same.
Business content is also enhanced in 3.5....
SEM-BPS also enhanced...
Yes you can delete that red request and you will then miss this data. Check if this request needs to posted in the cube. If yes then analyze why it failed. Take the corrective measures and try to repost it.
If you don't need it then just delete it.
hope this helps,
Olivier.

Diff b/w primary key and unique key?

what is the diff b/w primary key and unique key?

Hi,
With respect to functionality both are same.
But in ABAP we only have Primary key for the Database tables declared in the Data Dictionary.
Unique is generally is the term used with declaring key's for internal tables.
Both primary and Unique keys can identify one record of a table.

What is the diff b\w open form and start form in scripts.

Hi,
can any one tell me what is the diff andb\w open form and start form in scripts.when we should use open form and when start form.

Hi Friend.
I have understood some usefull information and would like to share with you.
Within one transaction, you can open and close several layout sets using OPEN_FORM and
CLOSE_FORM, however not simultaneously. You can use parameters in the OPEN_FORM to control
whether the output is stored in the same print request. But also the SAP spool decides,
depending on several plausibility checks, whether new output is appended to an existing
print request or whether to create a new print request anyway.
CALL FUNCTION 'OPEN_FORM'
CALL FUNCTION 'CLOSE_FORM'
CALL FUNCTION 'OPEN_FORM'
CALL FUNCTION 'CLOSE_FORM'
You cannot combine ABAP/4 list output and SAPscript output in one print request.
START A LAYOUT SET AGAIN
Usually a print program does not print only one urging letter or one account statement, but
several layout sets for different customers. To have the output for each customer begin with
the start page of the layout set, you must start the current layout set again and again.
To start a layout set again, you must first end the current layout set and then open the
layout set again. Within one print request, first call the function module END_FORM. It
executes the final processing for the current layout set. Then start the layout set again
using START_FORM. Output then begins again on the start page of the desired layout set.
CALL FUNCTION 'OPEN_FORM'
CALL FUNCTION 'START_FORM'
CALL FUNCTION 'END_FORM'
CALL FUNCTION 'START_FORM'
CALL FUNCTION 'END_FORM'
CALL FUNCTION CLOSE_FORM
Hope your obstacle is cleared.
If not do ask me again?

What is the diff b/w Sap Scripts and Smart Forms

Hi,
Whats the diff b/w SAP Scripts and Smart Forms..
I need the internal explanation for both Smart Forms and SAP Scripts mean when we execute what happens whether Print Program r Forms starts execution 1st and SIMILARLY FOR SMARTFORMS WHETHER FM'S R FORMS.
Thanks & Regards,
Gopi.

Hi
Difference with SMARTFORMS vs. SapScript(SE71)
The Following are the differences :-
a) Multiple page formats are possible in smartforms which is not the case in SAPScripts
b) It is possible to have a smartform without a main window .
c) Labels cannot be created in smartforms.
d) Routines can be written in smartforms tool.
e) Smartforms generates a function module when activated.
f) Unlike sapscripts (RSTXSCRP), you cannot upload/download Smartform to your local harddisk.
It was said that it was provided in CRM 3.0 version, but not available in R/3. You can download smartforms into Local PC in a XML format. In the same way you can upload this XML format into Smartform. From the smartform editor itself you can call download option, if you are working in CRM 3.0 environment.
In R3 also, you can download into XML format. However, it's not sure about uploading. Refer to the program 'SF_XSF_DEMO'.
In 4.7 Enterprise, other have seen this utlity which is completey missing in 4.6c. There is functionality to downlaod a complete form or only a particular node. (Utilities -> Download form). It will create a XML file and save it in the hard disk.
For others, if you want to download/upload the Smartforms source, you will need the help from the Basis people. What you can do is to create a Transport and then FTP down to your local harddisk. When you need the Smartform source in another system, you have FTP up the Smartforms file back to the SAP server. Finally, the Basis team, will tp it into your system.
g) The protect and endprotect command in sapscript doesn't work with smartforms. For example on a invoice: First data of position no 80. is printed on page one, other data of position no 80 is printed on page 2. And there's nothing you can do about it. Actually, there is something you can do about it. By using a folder node and checking the 'protect' checkbox, everything in that folder will be page protected.

About Business Intelligence and Business Warehouse.

Greetings Gentilemen,,
I'm currently working as an ABAP Consultant, but i want to get information about Business Intelligence and Business Warehouse because I want to pursue my career as a functional consultant.
What do i need to study and do i have to get access to BW system to do some self studying ?!
TIA

Hi
You're on the right track. The Oracle 11g database does indeed come with OWB. Out of the box, OWB can and will work with OLAP. However, are you licensed for OLAP? That is an add-on to the standard Oracle database license and, if I'm not mistaken, a separate install option too. I'm not 100% certain but I don't think the base Oracle database installer gives you the OLAP objects, I think you have to choose the custom install. Please make sure you buy the right license though.
As for ad-hoc querying and reporting, Discoverer will do you just fine. It is very reasonably priced and, as you say, it is part of the Oracle BI Standard Edition.
BI Enterprise Edition is the top of the range Oracle model for BI. It can do the same as Discoverer plus some - at a price! Personally, if you only want to work with some ad-hoc queries I would start out with Discoverer as it is the easiest to install and learn. Its also the cheapest entry point into the BI world. Later, if you decide that Discoverer is not for you then you can pay the BI EE license fee and upgrade. Oracle will even have tools that will allow you to upgrade your metadata and existing reports. Therefore, don't think that by starting out with Discoverer that you will be locking yourself into that tool because you will not.
Best wishes

What is the main diff b/n ldb pnp and pnpce?

hi ,
what is the main diff b/n ldb pnp and pnpce?
thanks.

Hi Arun,
PNP/PNPCE - Both are Logical Databases for PA Module
In PNPCE - CE stands for Concurrent Employment.
The differnces are:
The PNPCE logical database supports the evaluation of HR master data. It includes the functions of the PNP logical database and offers additional evaluation options. Therefore, you should use the PNPCE logical database instead of the PNP logical database for all new developments.
The enhanced functionality of PNPCE in comparison to PNP essentially concerns the evaluation of Concurrent Employment, that is the possibility to group evaluate several assignments/personnel numbers of a person. The new events 'GET PERSON' and 'GET GROUP' as well as an enhanced syntax for the INFOTYPES statement (addition AS PERSON TABLE) for the procurement of infotype data enable you to use the new functionality. The use of these new functions is optional. You can run a PNPCE report that does not use the new events and the addition for the INFOTYPES statement in a PNP-compatible session. Since the PNPCE also has an improved selection screen, each report benefits from this even if the report does not use the functions for evaluating Concurrent Employment.
Hope this helps you.
Regards,
Chandra Sekhar
