    Hello Gurus,
    Are there any differences between BI7.0 and BI7.1? Or is it just an enhancement package?

  • Posting of difference between PO and invoice by authorization level

    Hi all,
    I have a question on price difference between PO and invoice. 
    If i want to restrict postings of invoice by authorization like the following, is it possible to be done?  If yes, how?
    Clerks only allowed to post those invoice with no difference and rounding difference (small difference).  Other invoice with difference (not caused by rounding) can be posted by a higher authorised person and not the clerk.  Can this type of authorization be set? 
    Thanks.
    Regards,

    Hello
    First decide on the authorization roles for different users.
    Then these roles can be set by the BASIS team.
    Also tolerence groups for different users and amounts can also be set.
    Tolerances for Employees
    To carry out the activity, choose one of the following navigation options:
    Transaction Code     SPRO
    IMG Menu     Financial Accounting ® Accounts Payable Accounts Receivable  ® Business Transactions ® Incoming Payments  ® Manual incoming payments ® Define Tolerance Groups for Employees
    Tolerances for Business Partners
    To carry out the activity, choose one of the following navigation options:
    Transaction Code     SPRO

  • Differences between authorization role display and display change document?

    Dear All,
    I want to know what are the differences between activity authorization between display and display document change?
    Regards
    Aishah

    Dear Mr Robert,
    thanks for replying me. actually, it is to prevent user from other dept to change the PO even print/message. when i check inside authorization the configuration is only for their own dept by putting dept code at pur org field of change. but still can change. it is because of the me22 layout screen?

  • Structural Authorization: Difference Between AUTSW-DFCON and AUTSW-ORGPD?

    Dear All,
    Can anyone explain to me the difference between AUTSW-DFCON and AUTSW-ORGPD in tbale T77S0?
    And what is the relationship between these two switches?
    Thanks!!

    HI Mr. potato,
    working off dilek's informative post you may be considering ? context vs non-context?
    this image explains how context problems arise in HCM.  http://help.sap.com/saphelp_470/helpdata/en/b3/bfb83b5b831f3be10000000a114084/content.htm
    I would say generally, when an organization decides to use structural authorizations, they also need to take into account a "context solution".  This is most frequently used to "lockdown" how different parts of the HR organization has different authority access to different groups of employees (potentially overlapping).  As an HR manager i might have full read access on IT0002 for the entire company (root org), but IT0008 view access only for a sub-org unit.
    in this case you need to use the DFCON switch.  the 'most restrictive setting for dfcon is value 2.  the most iberal setting is, 4.  Generally, you need to test all 4 to figure out what works for you.
    settings for dfcon:

  • Difference between BW7.0 and BI7.3

    Hi all,
    1.Whats is the difference between bw 7.0 and BI 7.3?
    2. we are using BI 7.3 , have to know that is there any limitations of using BI 7.3 . We are extracting the data from multiprovider to Open hub Destination? Is there any disadvantage ?
    Please gudie me on this...

    Hi,
    Some of the features of 7.3:
    Major Step on enterprise Data warehousing scalability and flexibility
    BW accelerator: SAddditional performance
    Integration improvements with SAP Business Objects Data Services.
    Open Hub Services:
    1) Info spoke functions have been removed the infospoke and open hub monitor functions previously located under Tools-Open hub services. These functions are now obsolete due to the introduction of open hub destination.
    2) One can now extract data in ASCII and XML when using a file as a destination. You can now select either the default setting or direct input as the codepage setting.
    3)It is no longer possible to create new Infospokes.One can still use, display and change or delete existing Infospokes.It is recommended switching to the new Open hub destination concept.With the data transfer process and transformation, the Open hub destinationprovides all of the functions offered by Infospokes and thus replace the Infospoke concept.
    Please find some of the links which may be helpful for you.

  • Difference between SXPG_COMMAND_EXECUTE and Open data set mechanism

    Can you please help me to know the difference between moving a file using FM "SXPG_COMMAND_EXECUTE" and moving file using "open data set - transfer file- close data set" mechanism?

    Through 'SXPG_COMMAND_EXECUTE' u can execute a External command  (ie.. UNIX /Windows/OS/400) In ABAP programming..
    for Conversion Of Aplication server File/Move the file from one directory to Other...
    The Command must be present in SM69.
    Using this function module'SXPG_COMMAND_EXECUTE' , you can check the authorization of a user to execute a particular external command and run the command:
    With the arguments specified in ADDITIONAL_PARAMETERS
    On the target host system defined by OPERATINGSYSTEM and TARGETSYSTEM
    If an SAP profile parameter is inserted in the portion of the command stored in the database, then the value of this parameter is substituted into the command. If an SAP application server is active on the target system (TARGETSYSTEM), then the profile parameter values are read from the profile that is active on that system. No parameter substitution is made in ADDITIONAL_PARAMETERS.
    After substitution, the command is checked for the presence of "dangerous" characters such as the semicolon ( ; ) on UNIX systems.
    If an additional "security function module" is specified in the command definition, this function module is also called in the course of processingebenfalls. This function module can prevent execution of the command.
    If the authorization checks complete successfully, the command is run on the target host system.
    Through Open Data Set u can read and write the file in the same directory...

  • What's the difference between transport route and transport layer

    what's the difference between transport route and transport layer,Can somebody give me some explaination? thks in advance!

    Hi,
    Transport Layer in ABAP Workbench
        The Change and Transport System supports the distribution of development
        work on large projects across multiple SAP Systems.
        The packages in each development system are grouped into one transport
        layer.
        The transport layer determines whether objects are assigned to a local
        or transportable change request.
    Use
        Each of your SAP development systems is assigned a transport layer as
        its standard transport layer. If you use Extended Transport Control, you
        can assign different standard transport layers to certain clients.
        You can define at the most one consolidation target for each SAP System
    and transport layer.
    When you create a package, it is assigned the standard transport layer
    of the SAP System.
    If you want to assign a different transport layer to a package, you
    require the administration authorization for the Change and Transport
    System.
    The objects in a package automatically have the transport attributes
    defined for the corresponding transport layer.
    o   If a consolidation route originating in their SAP System is defined,
         then the objects are assigned to a transportable request, and
         transported into the consolidation target when it is released.
    o   If a consolidation route is not defined, the objects are assigned to
         a local request, and are not transported.
    Customizing settings are not assigned to a package. They have the
    transport attributes of the standard transport layer of the system or
    client.
    It is best to assign a package a standard transport layer for which a
    consolidation route originating in the development system is defined.
    To display and maintain the transport layers and routes, use the
    Transport Management System (transaction STMS).
    Only the system adminstrator can make changes.
    Caution:
         The tables TSYST, DEVL, TWSYS, TASYS are no longer productive as of
         Release 4.0A and cannot be maintained.

  • Difference between SAP CRM Security and SAP ECC 6.0 security

    Hi
    I have extensively worked on SAP ECC security but haven't have chance to work on CRM Security.
    Can anyone please let me know the difference between CRM security compared to  ECC security.
    Thanks...

    I am sorry to say, but instead of giving the guy a decent answer you are starting a fight or discussion about stupid forum points...
    really sad.....
    The big  difference between SAP ECC and SAP CRM Security (up to release 5.0) was the following:
    1) For sure there are very different transaction codes in SAP CRM as compared to SAP ECC in the first place
    2)  If you are familiar with R/3 or ECC authorizations; then you know that already on transaction code level, the 'allowed activity' is controlled on tcode level , whereas in SAP CRM , in most cases the 'allowed activity is not controlled by the Transaction code, but on authorization object level....
    E.g. transaction code BP allows you to create/change/display  any type of Business Partner (e.g; sold-to/ship-to/contact person/employee/customer) which is based on the business partner ROLE concept.... anyway...you can control the allowed activity based on different authorization objects.....
    another example is business transaction processing...which can be launched by:
    a very generic transaction code: CRMD_ORDER
    transaction category related transaction codes :e.g.
          > CRMD_BUS2000126 for activity management
          > CRMD_BUS200115 for Sales processes
    Again...allowed activity is not controlled by the tcode, but on authorization object level...
    3) As of the new WEBCLIENT UI (which is valid as of release CRM2006s/CRM2007/CRM7.0) SAP also invented an extra authorization layer, which is UI COMPONENT LEVEL and logical links....  controlled by object UIU_COMP.
    However, they also introduced the BUSINESS ROLE Concept (e.g; SALESPRO/MARKETINGPRO/...) which defines actually the functionalities, navigation bar, screen configuration, logical links you can use/see within the new WEBclient UI.
    Another thing is that instead of using TRANSACTION CODES, as of these new releases, you are actually using 'external services'....so you do not authorize on tcodes basically....but the logic between tcodes and external services in relation to the authorization objects that are checked is more or less the same....
    STANDARD authorization setup in the new WEBUI client is therefore controlled by both backend authorizations (not UIU component related) and the UIU_COMP (restricting access to workcenters/logical links/...)
    4) Additionally SAP also provides a concept called ACE (which stand for ACCES CONTROL ENGINE)....
    This requires a bit of customizing...and the rest is more or less pure customer development, as you will create your own methods where you'll define a logic which dynamically will verify what kind of access you have for an object....
    You should now that ACE is actually implemented on top of your 'normal' sap crm security setup....
    cheers

  • Differences between 7 and 3.x

    Hello,
    I am looking for a whitepaper/SAP documentation that talks about differences between BI 7.0 and BI 3.x especially Bex reporting. I searched through forums several times but I was not able to answer my question. I found some helpful links but it is not giving me what I need. Here are some of the documents I found. All of them only talk about 7.0 new features instead of differences. I was wondering if someone can help.

    Thanks,

    Hi,
    1. In Infosets now you can include Infocubes as well.
    2. The Remodeling transaction helps you add new key figure and characteristics and handles historical data as well without much hassle. This is only for info cube.
    3. The BI accelerator (for now only for infocubes) helps in reducing query run time by almost a factor of 10 - 100. This BI accl is a separate box and would cost more. Vendors for these would be HP or IBM.
    4. The monitoring has been imprvoed with a new portal based cockpit. Which means you would need to have an EP guy in ur project for implementing the portal !
    5. Search functionality hass improved!! You can search any object. Not like 3.5
    6. Transformations are in and routines are passe! Yess, you can always revert to the old transactions too.
    7. The Data Warehousing Workbench replaces the Administrator Workbench.
    8. Functional enhancements have been made for the DataStore object:
    New type of DataStore object
    Enhanced settings for performance optimization of DataStore objects.
    9. The transformation replaces the transfer and update rules.
    10. New authorization objects have been added
    11. Remodeling of InfoProviders supports you in Information
    Lifecycle Management.
    12 The Data Source:
    There is a new object concept for the Data Source.
    Options for direct access to data have been enhanced.
    From BI, remote activation of Data Sources is possible in SAP source systems.
    13.There are functional changes to the Persistent Staging Area (PSA).
    14.BI supports real-time data acquisition.
    15 SAP BW is now known formally as BI (part of NetWeaver 2004s). It implements the Enterprise Data Warehousing (EDW). The new features/ Major differences include:
    a) Renamed ODS as DataStore.
    b) Inclusion of Write-optmized DataStore which does not have any change log and the requests do need any activation
    c) Unification of Transfer and Update rules
    d) Introduction of "end routine" and "Expert Routine"
    e) Push of XML data into BI system (into PSA) without Service API or Delta Queue
    f) Intoduction of BI accelerator that significantly improves the performance.
    g) Load through PSA has become a must. I am not too sure about this. It looks like we would not have the option to bypass the PSA Yes,
    16. Load through PSA has become a mandatory. You can't skip this, and also there is no IDoc transfer method in BI 7.0. DTP (Data Transfer Process) replaced the Transfer and Update rules. Also in the Transformation now we can do "Start Routine, Expert Routine and End Routine". during data load.
    New features in BI 7 compared to earlier versions:
    i. New data flow capabilities such as Data Transfer Process (DTP), Real time data Acquisition (RDA).
    ii. Enhanced and Graphical transformation capabilities such as Drag and Relate options.
    iii. One level of Transformation. This replaces the Transfer Rules and Update Rules
    iv. Performance optimization includes new BI Accelerator feature.
    v. User management (includes new concept for analysis authorizations) for more flexible BI end user authorizations.

  • Difference between abap & hrabap

    hi experts,
    can anybody tell about the diff between abap & Hr Abap.
    thanks.

    Hello Dear,
    Eventhough there are many similarities to ABAP and HR-ABAP.
    The main difference between  ABAP and HR-ABAP is Time constarint , Efficient use of logical database and Concept of infptypes.
    1) In HR , whenever if you want fetch data, you will compare with time lines.
    ex;  a) what is the status of the employee between these periods
           b) what is the latest grade of employee.
           c) what s the first location of employee e.t.c
    you can observe from the above example you can't use the data with out time lines.
    2) the concept of INFOTYPE is mainly to capture the related information of employee.
    ex: a) if you want capture the address of employee, you will maintain 0006 infotype,
           b) ) if you want capture the  different dates of employee, you will maintain 0041 infotype.
      In the above example the infotype 0006 would  used to maintain only details diffferent kind of 
      addresses, permanent, temporary,emergency and secondary et.c
      0041 would be useful to maintain only for dates,
      Date of joining , Date of transfer, date of retirement , Date of separtaion e.t.c
    3 ) In HR module we need's to manage huge amount of data. in order to get the precise information we use logical databse.
       why use of logical database ?
       a) default selection-scree.
       b) authorization-checks.
       c) to fetch accurate data.

Maybe you are looking for
