Difference between count(col_nm) and count(*)
Hi i tried the following
create table chknull (a )
as select 1 from dual union all
select 2 from dual union all
select null from dual And i selected the values which are not null
select count(*) from chknull where a is nullReturns me 1 record
But
select count(a) from chknull where a is nullReturns me 0 record
Why it returns like above;
Could you please give me the hint in this
Thanks
Count(<expression>) where expression is a column, a literal or a calculation, counts all non-null occurences of the expression. Since your column a is null, the count of non-null occurences of the expression is zero. Count(*) is a special case of count(<expression>) where the expression evaluates to a row. So, as long as the row exists count(*) will count it.
Consider:
SQL> WITH t AS (
2 SELECT 1 id, 'A' name FROM dual UNION ALL
3 SELECT 2, 'B' FROM dual UNION ALL
4 SELECT 3, null FROM dual)
5 SELECT count(*) star, count('Banana') literal, count(name) col,
6 count(case when mod(id, 2) = 0 then 1 end) calulation
7 FROM t;
STAR LITERAL COL CALULATION
3 3 2 1John

You can read :
Followup August 31, 2001 :
I'll have to guess, since you don't say, that you are using 7.x and before when count(*) and count(1) were different (and count(1) was slower). In all releases of the databases for the last 4-5 years, they are the same.
Don't waste your time on that.

What is difference between sy-index and sy-tabix and where both are using ?
what is difference between sy-index and sy-tabix and where both are using ?
hi nagaraju
sy-tabix is in Internal table, current line index. So it can only be used while looping at the internal table.
sy-index is in Loops, number of current pass. This you can use in other loop statements also (like do-enddo loop, while-endwhile)
SY-INDEX is a counter for following loops: do...enddo, while..endwhile
SY-TABIX is a counter for LOOP...ENDLOOP, READ TABLE...
Here is an example from which you can understand the difference between sy-tabix and sy-index.
Itab is an internal table with the following data in it.
id Name
198 XYZ
475 ABC
545 PQR.
loop at itab where id > 300.
write :/ itab-id, itab-name , sy-tabix, sy-index.
endloop.
My output will be :
475 ABC 2 1
545 PQR 3 2
Sy-tabix is the index of the record in internal table.
sy-index gives the no of times of loop passes.
So, for the first record in the output (475 ABC), 2 is the index of the record in internal table and as it is first time loop pass occured, sy-index value is 1.

I have a test system which uses a PXI-7352 motion controller with a MID-7602 stepper motor drive to position a 200 step/revolution stepper motor with an attached 1000 line encoder. The MID-7602 is configured for 64 microsteps per step, giving 12,800 microsteps and 4000 encoder counts per revolution. The system is controlled using LabView 7.1 and NI-Motion 6.13. To home the motor, I've defined a sequence in MAX which first finds the reverse limit switch and then moves forward to the encoder index pulse.
When finding its reference in open loop mode, the system its reference at the same microstep each time. When findings its reference in closed loop mode, the system finds its reference somewhere within about a 20 microstep wide range.
I hope somebody out there with more experience with this controller can describe the difference between finding the encoder index in open loop mode and finding the encoder index in closed loop mode.
Thanks,
Mark MossHello Mark,
I suspect that the behavior you are experiencing has today
with the resolution difference between your encoder and your
microstepping. Let me illustrate with an
example:
Example Setup
Stepper
Motor
NI
Motion Controller
10
steps per encoder pulse (Every 10 steps the controller gets an encoder
pulse, therefore positions 0-9 all appear to be 0 to the controller)
The
system has a maximum of 3 pull in moves set
Open Loop Scenario
The
system is commanded to go to position 9.
The
controller sends out 9 pulses.
The
motor moves to position 9.
Closed Loop Scenario
The
system is commanded to go to position 9.
The
controller sends out 9 pulses.
The
motor moves to position 9.
The
controller checks its position and sees that it is still at position 0
because it has not received an encoder pulse.
Because
the controller thinks it is still at position 0, it sends another 9 pulses
as its first pull in move.
The
motor moves to position 18.
The
controller checks its position and sees that it is at position 10 because
it has only received one encoder pulse.
Because
the controller thinks it is still at position 10, it sends1 reverse pulse
as its second pull in move.
The
motor moves to position 17.
The
controller checks its position and sees that it is at position 10 because
it has only received one encoder pulse.
Because
the controller thinks it is still at position 10, it sends and additional
single reverse pulse as its third pull in move.
The
motor moves to its final position of 16.
I believe something similar is happening with your
application as it looks for the index pulse.
Because the controller does not compensate for what it perceives as
position error in open loop mode, the motor always goes to the same commanded
position. In closed loop mode, the motor
is bouncing around inside the single index encoder pulse trying to find a
certain position.
There are several recommendations I can make towards
correcting this behavior. These
recommendations are in order of effectiveness:
Setup
your system so that there are more encoder counts per revolution than
steps per revolution.
Turn
off pull-in moves by setting them to 0 in MAX.
Use an
open loop configuration.
Play
around with the pull in window in MAX.

Question about main difference between Java bean and Java class in JSP
Hi All,
I am new to Java Bean and wonder what is the main difference to use a Bean or an Object in the jsp. I have search on the forum and find some post also asking the question but still answer my doubt. Indeed, what is the real advantage of using bean in jsp.
Let me give an example to illustrate my question:
<code>
<%@ page errorPage="errorpage.jsp" %>
<%@ page import="ShoppingCart" %>
<!-- Instantiate the Counter bean with an id of "counter" -->
<jsp:useBean id="cart" scope="session" class="ShoppingCart" />
<html>
<head><title>Shopping Cart</title></head>
<body bgcolor="#FFFFFF">
Your cart's ID is: <%=cart.getId()%>.
</body>
<html>
</code>
In the above code, I can also create a object of ShoppingCart by new operator then get the id at the following way.
<code>
<%
ShoppingCart cart = new ShoppingCart();
out.println(cart.getId());
%>
</code>
Now my question is what is the difference between the two method? As in my mind, a normal class can also have it setter and getter methods for its properties. But someone may say that, there is a scope="session", which can be declared in an normal object. It may be a point but it can be easily solved but putting the object in session by "session.setAttribute("cart", cart)".
I have been searching on this issue on the internet for a long time and most of them just say someting like "persistance of state", "bean follow some conventions of naming", "bean must implement ser" and so on. All of above can be solved by other means, for example, a normal class can also follow the convention. I am really get confused with it, and really want to know what is the main point(s) of using the java bean.
Any help will be highly apprecaited. Thanks!!!
Best Regards,
AlexHi All,
I am new to Java Bean and wonder what is the main
difference to use a Bean or an Object in the jsp. The first thing to realize is that JavaBeans are just Plain Old Java Objects (POJOs) that follow a specific set of semantics (get/set methods, etc...). So what is the difference between a Bean and an Object? Nothing.
<jsp:useBean id="cart" scope="session" class="ShoppingCart" />
In the above code, I can also create a object of
ShoppingCart by new operator then get the id at the
following way.
ShoppingCart cart = new ShoppingCart();
out.println(cart.getId());
...Sure you could. And if the Cart was in a package (it has to be) you also need to put an import statement in. Oh, and to make sure the object is accessable in the same scope, you have to put it into the PageContext scope. And to totally equal, you first check to see if that object already exists in scope. So to get the equivalant of this:
<jsp:useBean id="cart" class="my.pack.ShoppingCart"/>Then your scriptlet looks like this:
<%@ page import="my.pack.ShoppingCart %>
<%
ShoppingCart cart = pageContext.getAttribute("cart");
if (cart == null) {
cart = new ShoppingCart();
pageContext.setAttribute("cart", cart);
%>So it is a lot more work.
As in my mind, a normal class can also
have it setter and getter methods for its properties.True ... See below.
But someone may say that, there is a scope="session",
which can be declared in an normal object.As long as the object is serializeable, yes.
It may be
a point but it can be easily solved but putting the
object in session by "session.setAttribute("cart",
cart)".Possible, but if the object isn't serializable it can be unsafe. As the point I mentioned above, the useBean tag allows you to check if the bean exists already, and use that, or make a new one if it does not yet exist in one line. A lot easier than the code you need to use otherwise.
I have been searching on this issue on the internet
for a long time and most of them just say someting
like "persistance of state", "bean follow some
conventions of naming", "bean must implement ser" and
so on. Right, that would go along the lines of the definition of what a JavaBean is.
All of above can be solved by other means, for
example, a normal class can also follow the
convention. And if it does - then it is a JavaBean! A JavaBean is any Object whose class definition would include all of the following:
1) A public, no-argument constructor
2) Implements Serializeable
3) Properties are revealed through public mutator methods (void return type, start with 'set' have a single Object parameter list) and public accessor methods (Object return type, void parameter list, begin with 'get').
4) Contain any necessary event handling methods. Depending on the purpose of the bean, you may include event handlers for when the properties change.
I am really get confused with it, and
really want to know what is the main point(s) of
using the java bean.JavaBeans are normal objects that follow these conventions. Because they do, then you can access them through simplified means. For example, One way of having an object in session that contains data I want to print our might be:
<%@ page import="my.pack.ShoppingCart %>
<%
ShoppingCart cart = session.getAttribute("cart");
if (cart == null) {
cart = new ShoppingCart();
session.setAttribute("cart", cart);
%>Then later where I want to print a total:
<% out.print(cart.getTotal() %>Or, if the cart is a JavaBean I could do this:
<jsp:useBean id="cart" class="my.pack.ShoppingCart" scope="session"/>
Then later on:
<jsp:getProperty name="cart" property="total"/>
Or perhaps I want to set some properties on the object that I get off of the URL's parameter group. I could do this:
<%
ShoppingCart cart = session.getAttribute("cart");
if (cart == null) {
cart = new ShoppingCart();
cart.setCreditCard(request.getParameter("creditCard"));
cart.setFirstName(request.getParameter("firstName"));
cart.setLastName(request.getParameter("lastName"));
cart.setBillingAddress1(request.getParameter("billingAddress1"));
cart.setBillingAddress2(request.getParameter("billingAddress2"));
cart.setZipCode(request.getParameter("zipCode"));
cart.setRegion(request.getParameter("region"));
cart.setCountry(request.getParameter("country"));
pageContext.setAttribute("cart", cart);
session.setAttribute("cart", cart);
}Or you could use:
<jsp:useBean id="cart" class="my.pack.ShoppingCart" scope="session">
<jsp:setProperty name="cart" property="*"/>
</jsp:useBean>The second seems easier to me.
It also allows you to use your objects in more varied cases - for example, JSTL (the standard tag libraries) and EL (expression language) only work with JavaBeans (objects that follow the JavaBeans conventions) because they expect objects to have the no-arg constuctor, and properties accessed/changed via getXXX and setXXX methods.

Output a list of all flights from Frankfurt to New York between September 10th and 20th, 2001 that are not sold out:
DATA: DATE LIKE SFLIGHT-FLDATE,
CARRID LIKE SFLIGHT-CARRID,
CONNID LIKE SFLIGHT-CONNID.
SELECT FCARRID FCONNID F~FLDATE
INTO (CARRID, CONNID, DATE)
FROM SFLIGHT AS F INNER JOIN SPFLI AS P
ON FCARRID = PCARRID AND
FCONNID = PCONNID
WHERE P~CITYFROM = 'FRANKFURT'

AND F~FLDATE BETWEEN '20010910' AND '20010920'
AND FSEATSOCC < FSEATSMAX.
WRITE: / DATE, CARRID, CONNID.
ENDSELECT.
If there are columns with the same name in both tables, you must distinguish between them by prefixing the field descriptor with the table name or a table alias.
Note
In order to determine the result of a SELECT command where the FROM clause contains a join, the database system first creates a temporary table containing the lines that meet the ON condition. The WHERE condition is then applied to the temporary table. It does not matter in an inner join whether the condition is in the ON or WHEREclause. The following example returns the same solution as the previous one.
Example
Output of a list of all flights from Frankfurt to New York between September 10th and 20th, 2001 that are not sold out:
DATA: DATE LIKE SFLIGHT-FLDATE,
CARRID LIKE SFLIGHT-CARRID,

AND FSEATSOCC < FSEATSMAX.
WRITE: / DATE, CARRID, CONNID.
ENDSELECT.
Note
Since not all of the database systems supported by SAP use the standard syntax for ON conditions, the syntax has been restricted. It only allows those joins that produce the same results on all of the supported database systems:
Only a table or view may appear to the right of the JOIN operator, not another join expression.
Only AND is possible in the ON condition as a logical operator.
Each comparison in the ON condition must contain a field from the right-hand table.
If an outer join occurs in the FROM clause, all the ON conditions must contain at least one "real" JOIN condition (a condition that contains a field from tabref1 amd a field from tabref2.
Note
In some cases, '*' may be specified in the SELECT clause, and an internal table or work area is entered into the INTO clause (instead of a list of fields). If so, the fields are written to the target area from left to right in the order in which the tables appear in the FROM clause, according to the structure of each table work area. There can then be gaps between table work areas if you use an Alignment Request. For this reason, you should define the target work area with reference to the types of the database tables, not simply by counting the total number of fields. For an example, see below:
Variant 3
... FROM tabref1 LEFT [OUTER] JOIN tabref2 ON cond
Effect
Selects the data from the transparent database tables and/or views specified in tabref1 and tabref2. tabref1 und tabref2 both have either the same form as in variant 1 or are themselves join expressions. The keyword OUTER can be omitted. The database tables or views specified in tabref1 and tabref2 must be recognized by the ABAP-Dictionary.
In order to determine the result of a SELECT command where the FROM clause contains a left outer join, the database system creates a temporary table containing the lines that meet the ON condition. The remaining fields from the left-hand table (tabref1) are then added to this table, and their corresponding fields from the right-hand table are filled with ZERO values. The system then applies the WHERE condition to the table.
Left outer join between table 1 and table 2 where column D in both tables set the join condition:

Dear Hemamashewararao,
Welcome to SDN !
As per rules you need to raise only one query as per one thread
Coming to your first query
As per business requirement formula will be defined
The most important difference between Capacity formula and scheduling formula
In SPRO
for scheduling formula tick mark will be marked for scheduling where as for capacity option tick mark will not ticked
For capacity formula tick mark will be marked for option capacity where as for scheduling option tick mark will not ticked
Currently i am not in front of SAP so i couldn't give you path
Good Luck !!!

I need just to know the difference between plan SKF and Actual SKF in business example and when I use one of them.
thanksHi Salaam,
Statistical Key Figure (SKF) is a base to allocate the cost between cost centers. Usually, common cost centers cost should allocate to respective department cost centers on monthly basis.
Some of SKFs are: Calculating floor rent on SFT, Telephone charges on No. of units, and employees head count is with "Each" in SAP.
Apart from Ajay's reply, you can consider the Canteen exp in an organization. Assume Admin, Fin and Mfg departments are getting food services from Canteen. Here, total monthly cost of Canteen exp should be allocated to respective departments. Here, we use SKF as total head count of each department and distribute the cost.
Planned SKF is what you planned on the beginning of a period. (Assume head count was planned as 30 in the month beginning)
Actual SKF is what exactly you consumed over the period. (Actual employees provided canteen services during the month is 25)

Differences between rate routing and reference rate routings?
Hello PP members:
I would like to differences between rate routing and reference rate routings
Thanks for your time,
Thanks Again,
Suren RHi Mr.Suren,
As explained by other friends Routing is used in Discrete manufacturing and Rate routing is used for REM-Repetitive manufacturing.
In addional to these types SAP has given 2 more types
1.Reference operation set -Used in Discrete manufacturing.
2.Reference rate routing - Used in REM.
If similar rate routing is been used for producing many materials,then instead of entering(these steps) in rate routing of each material you create a refrence rate routing and you enter the work centres used and the other details.After saving you get a group counter number showing reference rate routing is saved with group XXXXXXXXX.
When you are creating rate routing for a material say A ,after giving the name and plant details in the top you will be able to see an icon "copy from" and you can select the radio button for reference rate routing and give the group counter number. or else without giving it here you have got an option to select the reference rate routing after entering into the operation screen also.
In that particular page in operation overview screen,there will be an icon copy,there you can click that icon and you can give the reference rate routing group counter number and very easily you can create rate routing for N number of material.
Likewise you can use reference operation set while creating routing for a material in Discrete manufacturing.This basically reduces the time in creating routing or rate routing for materials in Discrete & REM respectively
CA01,CA02,CA03-Create,Change,display (routing) respectively.
CA11,CA12,CA13-Create,Change,Display reference operation set Respectively.
CA21,CA22,CA23-Create,Change,Display rate routing respectively.
CA31,CA32,CA33-create,change,display reference rate routing resp.
I hope this will help you.
If useful reward your points.
Thanks & regards

Difference between line type and table type
hi,
can any one explain the difference between line type and table type . and how to declare a internal table and work area in BSP'shi,
Go through this blog, this might help you.
/people/tomas.altman/blog/2004/12/13/sdn-blog-how-to-do-internal-tables-in-bsp
People who have worked with ABAP for a while sometimes forget that the internal table concept is rather different than what exists in most programming languages. It is very powerful, but at the same time can be confusing.
In SAP it is possible to have a table which is the rows and a headerline which is the working area or structure which can then be commited to the table.
With a BSP, if we try to create an internal table within the BSP event or layout we will get the following error: mso-bidi-
"InternalTableX" is not an internal table - the "OCCURS n" specification is mso-bidi- missing.
class="MsoNormal"><![if !supportEmptyParas]>The problem we are seeing as an inconsistency has to do with the difference between classic ABAP and ABAP Objects. When SAP introduced ABAP Objects they decided to clean up some of the legacy syntax and create stricter rules. However they didn't want to break the millions of line of code that already existed, so they only implemented these stricter checks when OO is being used. Therefore you can declare a table with a header line in a regular ABAP program or Function Module but you can't have one with a header line in OO.
Because everything in BSP generates ABAP OO classes behind the scenes, you get these same stricter syntax checks. My suggestion is that you have a look in the on-line help at the section on ABAP Objects and always follow the newer syntax rules even when writing classic ABAP programs.
In a BSP when we need to work with a table we must always do the following:
1, in the Types definitions create a structure:
types : begin of ts_reclist,
mso-bidi- style='mso-tab-count:2'> receiver type somlreci1-receiver,
mso-bidi- style='mso-tab-count:2'> style='mso-tab-count: 1'> rec_type type somlreci1-rec_type,
mso-bidi- style='mso-tab-count:2'> end of ts_reclist.
mso-bidi- <![if !supportEmptyParas]> <![endif]>
but we must remember this is only a structure definition and we cannot store anything in it, although we can use it elsewhere as a definition for Structures(WorkAreas)
2, in our Types definitions (this is the best place for this one as we can then access it from many areas without having to create it locally) so in the Types definitions we must create a TableType:
class="MsoNormal"> types : tt_reclist type table of ts_reclist.
class="MsoNormal"><![if !supportEmptyParas]> <![endif]> this TableType is our table definition and again we cannot store anything in it, but we can use it elsewhere as a definition for InternalTables
3, now that you have laid the foundations you can build and in the event handler, it is now simply a case of creating the InternalTable based upon the Table definition:
data: t_reclist type tt_reclist.
and creating the structure based upon the structure definiton:
<![if !supportEmptyParas]> <![endif]> data: s_reclist type ts_reclist.
as described above, the structure becomes the work area and this is where you assign new values for elements of the table eg:<![endif]>
s_reclist-receiver = '[email protected]'. "<-- change address
mso-bidi- <![if !supportEmptyParas]> <![endif]>
mso-bidi- s_reclist-rec_type = 'U'.
and then once the data is in the elements of the structure, the structure can be appended to the internal table as follows: class="MsoNormal">
append s_reclist to t_reclist.
<![if !supportEmptyParas]> <![endif]>
the internal table will then be readable for the ABAP function and can be applied for example as follows: class="style1"> style='mso-tab-count:1; font-family: "Courier New", Courier, mono;'>
class="style1">CALL FUNCTION 'SO_NEW_DOCUMENT_SEND_API1'
EXPORTING
style='mso-tab-count:2'> document_data = docdata
style='mso-tab-count:2'> DOCUMENT_TYPE = 'RAW'
style='mso-tab-count:2'> PUT_IN_OUTBOX = 'X'
style='mso-tab-count:2'> COMMIT_WORK = 'X' "used from rel.6.10
TABLES
mso-bidi-font-size: style='mso-tab-count:2'> receivers = t_reclist
class="style1"> <![if !supportEmptyParas]> <![endif]>
<![if !supportEmptyParas]>F inally, a comment from Thomas Jung,
<![if !supportEmptyParas]> when defining my work area for an internal table I like to use the like line of statement. That way if I change the structure of my table type, I know that my work area will still be OK. Second, your types and table types don't have to just be declared in your code. You can create a table type in the data dictionary and use it across multiple programs(also great for method and function parameters). I really push hard for the other developers at my company to use the Data Dictionary Types more and more.
Hope this helps, Do reward. -

During processing, no transaction is started until the previous transaction has been written to the database.
CALL TRANSACTION METHOD :
This is another method to transfer data from the legacy system.
Features:
Synchronous processing. The system performs a database commit immediately before and after the CALL TRANSACTION USING statement.
Updating the database can be either synchronous or asynchronous. The program specifies the update type.
Transfer data for a single transaction.
Transfers data for a sequence of dialog screens.
No batch input processing log is generated.

Among the two methods call transaction is better compared to session bcoz data transfer is faster in it.
Differences between call transaction and session.
Session Method:
1) Data is not updated in the database table until the session is processed.
2) No sy-subrc is returned.
3) Error log is created for error records.
4) Updation is always synchronous.
Call Transaction Method:
1) Immediate updation in the database table.
2) sy-subrc is returned.
3)Error need to be handled explicitly.
4) updation can be synchronous as well as asynchronous.
2) ya u can use using the N mode no screen.
3)u can't handle multiple transaction in call transaction.
4) u can handle multiple transaction in session using the BDC_INSERT fm.
5)When u go to SM35 u can able to see the error records.
Which is best?
That depends on your requirement. Both of them have there advantages.
According to the situation u can choose any one of these.
difference between batch input and call transaction in BDC Session method.
1) synchronous processing.
2) can tranfer large amount of data.
3) processing is slower.
4) error log is created
5) data is not updated until session is processed.
Call transaction.
1) asynchronous processing
2) can transfer small amount of data
3) processing is faster.
4) errors need to be handled explicitly
5) data is updated automatically
For session method,these are the function modules to b used.
BDC_OPEN_GROUP
BDC_INSERT
BDC_CLOSE_GROUP
For call transaction,this is the syntax.
CALL TRANSACTION TCODE USING BDCDATA
MODE A or E or N
UPDATE A or S
MESSAGES INTO MESSTAB.
Take a scenario where we need to post documents in FB01 and the input file has say 2000 records (2000 documents, not line items in FB01 but 2000 records)
In the BDC call transaction method
We call the transaction FB01 2000 times (once for each record posting) and if the processing fails in record no 3 it can be captured and start with reocord 4.
Eg: Loop at itab.
call transaction FB01
capture errors
endloop.
In the session method.
We do not explicity call the transaction 2000 times, but all the records are appeneded into a session and this session is stored. The processinf of the session is done wwhenever the user wants it to be done. Hence the errors cannot be captured in the program itself

http://www.planetsap.com/bdc_main_page.htm
Batch Input Session method is asynchronous as told by others here. But the advantage of this is that you have all the error messages and the data for each transaction held persistantly. You don't have to code anything for processing them or writing the logs.
But at the same time, the same feature can be disadvantageous if you need to react to an error or if there are too many errors to manually correct in a session. Since the session are created in the program and its execution is done seperately, you loose the trackability of such transactions.
With a call transaction, what was a disadvantage above will become an advantage. Call transaction immediately gives you messages back and you can react to it in your program. But the disadvantage is that, if you have several hundreds of transactions to run, running them from within the program can be resource crunching affair. It will hamper the system performance and you cannot really distribute the load. Of course, you have some mechanisms with which you can overcome this, but you will have to code for it. Also, storing the messages and storing the errored transaction data etc will have to be handled by you in the program. Whereas, in batch input session, your program's job is to just create the session, after that everything is standard SAP system's responsibility.
Ideally, you should do a call transaction if the resources are not a problem and if it fails, put the errored transaction into a session.
You can decide based on the data volume that your BDC is processing. If data volume is high go for session else call transaction will do.The call transaction updates will be instantaneous where as session needs to be processed explictly after creation.
Session Method
1) Session method supports both small amount of data aswell as large amount of data
2) data processing is asynchronus and data updation is synchronus.
3) it process multiple apllication while perfomaning validations.
4) in session method data will be updated in data base only after processing session only.
5) system provide by default logfile for handling error records.
6) it supports both foreground aswell as background process
in bdc we use FM ...
bdc_open_group " for creating Session
bdc_insert " adding transaction and bdcdata table for updating database
bdc_close_group " for closing Session
Call Transaction
1) Call transaction exclusively for small amout of data
2) it supports only one apllication while perfoming validations
3) there is no default logfile, We can explicitly provide logic for creating logfile for handling error records.
we can create logfile by using structure....BDCMSGCOLL
4) it doesn't support background processing.
5) data processing is synchronous and Data updation is Synchronous( default), in
this method also supports daya updation in asynchronus process also.
syntax:
Call transaction <transaction-name> using BDCDATA
mode <A/N/E>
update <L/A/S>
messages into BDCMSGCOLL.
BDC:
Batch Data Communication (BDC) is the process of transferring data from one SAP System to another SAP system or from a non-SAP system to SAP System.
Features :
BDC is an automatic procedure.
This method is used to transfer large amount of data that is available in electronic medium.
BDC can be used primarily when installing the SAP system and when transferring data from a legacy system (external system).
BDC uses normal transaction codes to transfer data.
Types of BDC :
CLASSICAL BATCH INPUT (Session Method)
CALL TRANSACTION
BATCH INPUT METHOD:
This method is also called as CLASSICAL METHOD.
Features:
Asynchronous processing.
Synchronous Processing in database update.
Transfer data for more than one transaction.
Batch input processing log will be generated.
During processing, no transaction is started until the previous transaction has been written to the database.
CALL TRANSACTION METHOD :
This is another method to transfer data from the legacy system.
Features:
Synchronous processing. The system performs a database commit immediately before and after the CALL TRANSACTION USING statement.
Updating the database can be either synchronous or asynchronous. The program specifies the update type.
Transfer data for a single transaction.
Transfers data for a sequence of dialog screens.
No batch input processing log is generated.

Quality difference between S-video and RCA
Can someone tell me what's the difference (in quality) between S-video out and RCA out?
I'm using RCA out because with s-video, the image shows up in black and white on my TV.
It would help to know I'm not loosing too much quality this way...
Regards everyone.pauliewog is speechless
But what Robi says is true!
The various forms of (analogue) signal transfer are, in descending order of quality:
RGB - The Red, Green and Blue signals are generated by the PC (say), and connected by separate wires to ultimately control the Red, Green and Blue electron guns of the display monitor/TV set. The standard 15-pin "VGA" connector is RGB (plus H and V synchronising pulses).
YUV - Also called Component, and YCrCb, as found on DVD players. The Y is the luminance, or Black-and-White component, while the Cr and Cb are the Differences between the Y and the Red and Blue signals respectively. Usually, the Y signal has higher bandwidth than the Cr and Cb signals (twice as many Y samples as Cr and Cb samples on the DVD). Still needs wires, but the Sync is added to the Y signal.
Y/C - aka S-Video. The Y is as above, but the Cr and Cb signals are used to modulate a subcarrier (3.579545MHz for NTSC, 4.43361875MHz for PAL), with one of the signals effectively at 90 degrees to the other - the C signal. The bandwidths of the colour difference signals need to be bandwidth limited to about 1/3 of the subcarrier frequency (about 1.7MHz for PAL from memory), compared to the Y bandwidth of 5MHz for broadcast television. In PAL, the phase of one of the signals is inverted every other line (PAL = Phase Alternating Line, aka Peace At Last). Transmission errors which result in green faces and purple trees in NTSC (National Television Standards Commitee, aka Never Twice the Same Colour) tend to desaturate the colours instead.
CVBS, aka Composite Video (also RCA, named after the company that developed the type of connector used, which is typically yellow for video). The Y and C (and sync) signals are combined one one wire. The TV has a harder job of separating them back to RGB :(
RF (Radio Frequency). The CVBS signal is modulated onto an RF carrier, which could be anywhere between about 45MHz and about 1000MHz (not counting satellite distribution), so that it looks the same as a broadcast TV station to a TV set, and connects via a single cable to the antenna socket of a TV set. So first the TV has to demodulate the signal back to CVBS, before separating the Y and C, then separating the C into Cr and Cb and putting into a matrix with the Y to get RGB back. Nevertheless, this is a useful technique for distributing a signal to a lot of TV sets over a reasonably large area. It is also the only method that works with old TVs without A/V inputs - which is why game consoles used to come with an RF Modulator (aka RF Converter) as standard.
The above methods are also in descending order of signal bandwidth, which restricts the available resolution, or the finest horizontal detail (especially colour detail). Generally, 800x600 is about as good a resolution as you can expect to get on a TV display without resorting to special enhancing techniques.
The above is probably a lot more detail than you need, but is still a fairly superficial explanation. But study it up, the test is next Monday at 9am :D

Difference between sub-query and corelated subquery
Hi,
can anyone please give me the clear difference between sub-query and coreleated subquery with an example.
I am very much confused with the both.
Also please let me know in which cases/situation these are used.
Thanks,Basically Sub Query is Query within Query. There are different type of SubQuery.
1. Scalar Sub Query
Query that is totally independent from the main query.
select empno, (select count(*) from emp) total_emp
from emphere the subquery is totally independent of the main query.
2. Corelated Sub Query
The sub query reffers to the main query.
select empno, (select deptname from dept d where e.deptno = d.deptno) deptname
from emp e3. Inline view
A sub query that is used as a table or view in a SQL
select *
from (select empno, deptname
from emp e, dept d
where e.deptno = d.deptno)
where sal > 100 -
Cumulative values: difference between 3.5 and 7.0
Hi everybody,
I use queries which display an Amount on month.
JAN FEB MAR APR
A1 A2 A3 A4
I modify the Key Figure property to have cumulated values
JAN FEB MAR APR
A1 A1A2 A1A2A3 A1A2A3A4
In Bex 7.0, all is right i have my cumulated values
In Bex 3.5, it doesn't work ...
i have the following result:
JAN FEB MAR APR
1 3 6 10 ...
as if i had:
JAN=>Amount=1 JAN-> 1
FEB=>Amount=2 FEB-> 1+2 =3
MAR=>Amount=3 MAR-> 123 = 6
Why this difference between 3.5 and 7 ?
I would like the right result in 3.5,
How do i proceed ?
Thanks for your help!
Rodolphe.Appararently,
On Bex 3.5 ...
I remplace for my KeyFigure:
Calculate Single Values As ...
"Counting All values" by "Nothing"
and option cumulated activated.
and it does work !!

Difference between production version and routing
hello pp experts,
why do we create production version, and what's the difference between production version and routing?Dear sarfaraz lodhi ,
Production version is a combination of BOM & Routing in the case of Discrete Manufacturing and it's a
combination of BOM & Rotuing/Rate Routing in the case of Repetitive Manufacturing.
Created either through MM02 by selecting MRP4 view or else through C223
A production version determines the various production techniques that can be used to produce a material.
It defines the following information:
· Alternative BOM for a BOM explosion
· Task list type, task list group, and group counter for assignment to task lists
· Lot-size restrictions and period of validity
A material can have one or more production versions.
Routing contains the set of operation that's required for producing a product either a HALB - Semi-
Finished product or else a FERT - Finished Product.
The T code for creating Routing is CA01.
