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)
     Error:
            data: begin of tab,                   "Excel Parameter Split at TAB
        t type x value '09',          "Tabulator
       end of tab.
            concatenate 'Material' 'Package Status'
                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.
     Before the concatenate statement assign the value of Tab using pre-defined attributes.
          TAB = CL_ABAP_CHAR_UTILITIES=>HORIZONTAL_TAB.
E8. Upload/Ws_Upload and Download/Ws_Download are obsolete, since they are not Unicode-
      enabled; use the class cl_gui_frontend_services

         of a Unicode character.

Difference between Data warehouse BO and SAP BO

Dear All,
can anyone let me know the difference b/n data warehosue Business Objects and SAP Business Objects.....and aslo can u suggest which is the better future among these two tools....
explaining in detailed view is highly appreciable!
Thanks & Regards,
V.Ravi Teja

Hello,
in the SAP BusinessObjects portfolio there is no solution for a DWH. A DWH is a DataStore based on a Database technology like Oracle. SAP BusinessObjects doesnt have its own Database. SAP BusinessObjects Tools support loads of Databases like Oracle, DB2, MS SQL etc.
What the SAP BusinessObjects portfolio has is an ETL tool to create a DWH - called "DataServices". Also there is a tool for creating a virtual DWH - called "Data Federator"
SAP has its own Datastore for a DWH - called "SAP Business Warehouse" (SAP BW)
Hope this helps.

What is the difference between version 4.7EE and ECC 5.0

DEAR EXPERTS
what is the difference between version 4.7EE and ECC 5.0?WHAT ARE THE ADDITIONAL FUNCTIONALTIES IN
ECC 5.0?

hi,
Diff between 4.7 and ECC 5.0:
1. 4.7 is on R/3 platform, while ECC 5.0 is on mySAP ERP 2004
2. ECC 5.0 is having ESA(enterprise Serviceoriented Architecture)
3.ECC 5.0 is web enabled with Netweaver technology.
mySAP ERP is the "newer" ERP with numbering conventions like ECC (which stands for ERP Central Component) 5 or 6
mySAP (aka mySAP.com) Business Suite contains Solutions like CRM, SCM etc. The important thing to note here is that this contains mySAP ERP, the one above
mySAP All-in-One Solution is designed for smaller companies (the ad that says SAP is not just for large companies but for great companies where the above mentioned functionality is scaled down and is made to run on one database on a PC type of setup as opposed to the full blown architectures on which SAP traditionally set to run

From ABAP view, what is the difference between version 4.7 and ECC 6.0 ?

Hi,
I am a ABAP developer. I want to know the difference between version 4.7 and ECC 6.0 from a programmer
perspective.
I also want to know what is obsoleted and what is enhanced.
Thanks.
Best Regards,
Chris Gu

I'm not sure if any of this is in your 4.7 version, but I know it wasn't available in our 4.6C before we upgraded and we have found the following extremely helpful in ECC 6.0:
1. The new ABAP Debugger - Search SDN and you'll probably find a bunch of info on these enhancements
2. The Enhancement Framework - this is a great new framework allowing enhancements to standard SAP programs without having to use "core Mods". Had we known about it prior to our upgrade, we could have probably eliminated 75% or so of our custom Z Programs which are copies of standard SAP code and 100% of our core mods (of which we only have a handful)
3. Code Inspector and more importantly the ability to turn it on to automatically run when releasing a transport.
4. The ABAP workbench has changed a bit with a new editor including some minimal code completion.
5. Automatic generation of services from any remote enabled function module.
These are just a few of the things that I've found helpful in an upgraded environment.
