Difference between SAP MI and CRM Mobile Sales

hi experts,
we need to understand difference between SAP MI and CRM mobiles sales solutions. what are SAP's recommendations: where to use MI and where to use Mobile sales.
can some of you explain the pros and cons of each solution or let me know the place where i get such info.
thanks in advance.
RH

SAP MI apps are aimed at PDAs while CRM Mobile Sales is aimed (and can only work with) at laptops.
PDA solutions are mostly used by sales agents while the laptop solution is more suitable to account managers. The laptop has much more information available that includes:
- Marketing planning and execution capabilities
- Account Planning
- BW Reporting
Mobile Sales for PDAs has more basic functionalities like order & activity management and business partner data maintenance (which are also included in the laptop version).

Difference between R/3 and CRM systems

Hi,
I want to know difference between R/3 and other systems like CRM, SCM. Shall we need XI to integrate them..
I think that CRM,SCM are the modules of R/3 is correct..
What kind of applications they are...
Thanks,
RamuV

Hi Ramu,
As you said they are R3 Applications only.
can be connected with the help of XI.
CRM uses BDOCs but XI can only deal with IDOCs. So when you will be working with BDOCs of CRM, then in CRM you will have to create custom IDOCs for the corresponding BDOCs and then you can have File-IDOC and IDOC-file scenarios working via XI to communicate between your CRM server.

Difference between Item Proposal and Dynamic Product Proposal

Dear All,
What is the difference between Item Proposal ( VA51) and Dynamic Product Proposal?
Thanks and Regards
Deepak Joshi

Hi,
In item proposal when u enter the details in the sales document you have to click on propose items to get the list
the customer regularly purchases.
While in dynamic product proposal once you specify the sold to party and press enter , system automaticall gives you
the list of the materials the customer regularly purchases, it a faster way of entry than item proposal.
please let me know if i am wrong.
Thanks,

What is difference between SAP R3 And SAP IS Mills Product

HI Friends
What is difference between SAP R3 And SAP IS Mills Product
What are the futures are availables in IS MIlls
Regards

Hi,
SAP R/3 is the central enterprise version. It is not specifically designed for any inducstry sectors and it can cater many of the industry types.
Is is developed for specific industries an for SMB's (small and medium business). It will have components specifically for the industry.
The SAP Mill Products component adds sector-specific functionality to an ERP system to satisfy the complex requirements of mill industries (e.g. metal, wood, paper, textiles, construction materials, and cable sectors).
These industry segments differ from others primarily in that the materials used have a large number of characteristics and variants. The materials in the segments listed above are also predominantly area-based (e.g. paper, textiles, plastic film) or length-based (e.g. cables, piping). Account must be taken of these material characteristics throughout the entire supply chain.
To cater for the particularities of these industry segments, SAP Mill Products features processes and functions that cover the entire supply-chain cycle from product design and configuration, through planning, order processing, capacity planning and production, to final delivery. Additional functions are available in costing and inventory management. SAP Mill Products are also integrated into Quality Management, Financial Accounting, and Controlling.

I do video productions for a small local TV station. I use Final Cut Express to edit. I need a new video camera but am at a loss as to what to buy. I know I will get a digital camera but do not know the difference between just digital and digital HD.

I do video productions for a small local TV station. I use Final Cut Express to edit. I need a new video camera but am at a loss as to what to buy. I know I will get a digital camera but do not know the difference between just digital and digital HD. Also, I can not afford an expensive camera and need some advice on which of the available cameras would be best and also work well with a Mac. One last issue, I currently use a Panasonic #CCD camera that takes a tape. When I load video to Final Cut the audio and video are out of sinc. Go figure. Can anyone help with these questions. Karen

Hello Karen,
If you are using Final Cut Express, then look for camcorders that are AVCHD camcorders. Look especially for the AVCHD logo and specific mention of AVCHD in the specs. Most of the major manufacturers produce good quality camdcorders - Canon, Sony, etc.
Also, be aware that there are a lot of "not quite AVCHD" camcorders on the market (sometimes they say they record video as MPEG4-H.264/AVC) - buyer beware!
Most everything you are going to find on the market today is HD, which stands for "high-def".
Regarding your question about the Panasonic camcorder, it's best if you post that as a separate question, and please identify the specific model camcorder and the Easy Setup you are using in FCE.

AppID during application update and Difference between app id and product id

Hi
I understand once a app is in store it has a associated Appid. How does this differs from the product id?
During each app update does the product id's should be same?
or during the store certification process will the appid and the product ids be mapped?
How does the product id and App id differ if this is not the case?
Can you provide some article which actually explains what is the difference between XAP uploaded and xap after certification?
Regards
Varun
Varun Ravindranath Please 'Mark as Answer' if my post answers your question and 'Vote as Helpful' if it helps you.

Hi
In that case the dev account from which the update is done will have the unique id or appid and the appid or the product id mapping will be always done by the store certification process.
I'm not clear on this part whether the developer who does the update of the app should update the id or the process which does the certification of the app as an update will update automatically do it?.

Difference between process order and Production order

Hi Experts,
Can any buddy tell me the difference between process order and production order. Why process order is used for process industries. Why do we use recipe for it and routing for production order ?
Regards,
Amit

Hi Amit
There is a difference between production order and process order.
Supposing a 10,000 lit tank is being manufactured in discrete manufacturing. You have to follow the necessary routing steps and can make by physically seeing its development stage by stage. For this type production you can have a production order.
In case of process of order if some chemical in a reactor is loaded with intial temp of 30 C and need to be heated to 80 C then there is phase change. Hence we use Heating as an operation and the change of temp is phase. For such type of process we process order.
Hope this is useful. Pl reward.

Difference between co-product and By-product

Hi,
Can anyone tell me Difference between co-product and By-product with example?
What is their impact on costing?

Hi,
By-Product : By-Product is a Product Created While Making Production
1. The System Does not create a separate order item for each by-Product
2. The Material Valuation of a by-Product is always based on the price, specified by the price control in the material master
3. The by-product must be listed as an item in the bill of material of the main product .The bill of material item must have a negative quantity (for example 1 -)
4. Byproduct has only the -ve quantity in BOM component, it does not go for joint production costing.
5. Movement type 531 to post the By-Product during Confirmation.
6. Settlement of cost is done to the header of the material
Co-Product :A co-product is a product that is produced in conjunction with other products. The system creates a separate order item in the production order for each co-product. As a result, it is possible to display actual costs at co-product
Settings: 1.) You have to activate check box in MRP2 view for co product.
2.) For co products we also need to define the apportionate structure with equivalence number for costing purpose, this will be done in "Joint Production" details in the same view. (30:30:20:20)
Prerequisite for the main product:
1.) The indicator Co-product must be activated in the material master of the main product (MRP area)
Prerequisites for a co-product:
1.) The indicator Co-product must be activated in the material master of the co-product (MRP area)
The co-product must be listed as an item in the bill of material of the main product
2.) On the Basic data tab page of the BOM item, the indicator Co-product must be activated in the field group General data

Difference between Plannnig Horizon and Production Horizon

Hai Can somebody explain me the difference between "Planning Horizon and Production Horizon"?
Here is the text that led me to this question:
"If the Production Horizon of SNP is smaller than PP/DS horizon, the planning horizons of SNP and PP/Ds overlap with each other." In this horizon, SNP determines the receipts with most cost effective sources of supply and lot sizes and PP/DS receipts generated by SNP in more detail.

check the following entries in Product master
The SNP production horizon is maintained on the SNP 2 tab page in the product master (transaction /SAPAPO/MAT1).
It also appears in the PPDS tab page along with PPDS horizon
The PPDS Planning horizon and PPDS Production horizon are the same. PPDs only plans inside this Horizon.
What is outside the SNP production Horiozon lies in the SNP planning horizon. Actually thought the name is a bit misleading - SNP does not plan anything inside the production horizon.
If you do not enter a value or you enter the duration 0 for the PP/DS horizon, the system automatically uses the SNP production horizon as the PP/DS horizon during planning. Therefore, the PP/DS horizon is exactly the same length as the SNP production horizon and this means that the SNP and PP/DS planning periods follow on from each other seamlessly and without overlapping.
If the SNP production horizon is smaller than the PP/DS horizon, the planning horizons of SNP and PP/DS overlap. SNP and PP/DS can both use this overlapping period for planning.
A gap between the end of the PP/DS horizon and the start of the SNP planning period is a time segment that is neither planned by PP/DS nor SNP. This can lead to inconsistencies.
So think of two lines - one with its right side shaded(PPDS) and the other with its left side(SNP) shaded. Depending on where you place these lines the shaded sections get planned. how you get the two regions to mesh will ensure the effectivity of your plan
you can also get a better understanding looking at the product view screen and changing the product master values for the horizons and running heuristics

Difference between Time dimension and product(regular) dimenstion

Hi All,
I would like to know what is the difference between time dimenstiona and regular dimenstion. How can we differentiate and how Oracle bi server knows a dimension
as Time dimenstion.
Thanks,

Hi,
By using Logical Dimensional Structure and chronological keys it identify time or other types of dim.
Just double clik time dimension then you can find the
root type (Time, Ragged and skipped) and for the chronological keys > just double click logical level then select keys tab -- here u can find chronological keys
Thanks

Differences between B2B IPCUI and CU50 IPCUI?

Dear all.
We have SAP ERP 6.0 installed with integrated IPC in VMC running. On another box we have NW 7 with E-Commerce 5.0 and TREX 7.0 and MS ISS 7.5 running.
We have two scenarios:
Scenario 1: http://host:port/b2b/b2b/init.do
After a logon a shop list appears. After going into a shop, navigating through the catalog and choosing a configurable product, the IPC UI gets displayed.
Scenario 2: SAP Gui transaction CU50
After choosing the same configurable material as in scenario 1 and running it through the IPC, the IPC UI gets displayed.
The IPC UI via CU50 shows correctly status ligths as configured through XCM parameter appearance.showstatuslights=T.
But the IPC UI in the B2B does not show the status lights, but the texts.
My assumption is that both scenarios are using the same IPC UI.
Or is there maybe a difference?
What I also do not understand is:
Why do I have XCM configuration for IPC two times?
One "Internet pricing and configurator" in ../ipc/admin/xcm and another "IPC" in ../b2b/admin/xcm
Maybe this is a silly question, but I haven´t found any solution nor answers to these issues and questions after long investigations.
Thanks and regards
Stefan

Your Scenario 1: uses IPC-SCE (Configuration Engine) for runtime configuration of a configurable product. This uses the IPC as the runtime engine for configuring the product. The IPC UI (along with appropriate Java application) helps you render the design and get your input.
Your Scenario 2: SAP Gui transaction CU50 uses the classical Variant Configuration LO-VC module of the SAP R/3 (ECC 6.0) system. The SAPGUI Variant configuration screens don't use IPC at any instance.
The IPC UI via CU50 shows correctly status ligths as configured through XCM parameter appearance.showstatuslights=T. But the IPC UI in the B2B does not show the status lights, but the texts.
It is very likely that you are seeing the default behavior of CU50 set elsewhere. Try changing the XCM setting and see if CU50 display property changes.
My assumption is that both scenarios are using the same IPC UI.
Not correct.
See more detailed functional differences between IPC-SCE and LO-VC at this link Comparison of SCE and R/3 Variant Configuration.
Why do I have XCM configuration for IPC two times?
One "Internet pricing and configurator" in ../ipc/admin/xcm and another "IPC" in ../b2b/admin/xcm
Technically they are two different applications for use in different contexts. ../ipc/ for both design time and runtime of product configuration. This is what actually controls the IPC UI appearance in the web. The ipc component in the ../b2b/ application is for picking up the right configuration type that is defined in XCM of the _ipc application _.
Maybe this is a silly question, but I haven´t found any solution nor answers to these issues and questions after long investigations.
Probably, this was "intuitive" by SAP standards, so they don't have any documentation for developers who don't work in SAP.....
(1) Define a custom configurations for application configuration isab2b and isacatalog in ipc/XCM.
(2) After making changes to ipc application (XCM) for UI settings, you have to restart the ipc application.
(3) Define custom component for application component ipcdefaul in b2b/XCM
(4) In the place of isab2b and isacatalog, input the names of the custom configurations you defined in ipc/XCM
(5) Restart the b2b application.
Hope this helps...

Difference between EDN-DB and EDN-JMS implementation

Experts,
Looking for a difference between EDN-DB and EDN-JMS implementation. We have EDN implementation going on, where multiple source systems will be publishing business events. Events can be published using SOA Suite or JMS Bridge from AQ and MQ. In this scenario which implementation approach is suited better ?

Oracle Apps Adapter can be used for many other products other than E-Business Suite (JD Edwards E1, OTM, and others). The apps adapter was mainly used in ERP systems and was strong when you needed have added functionality other than just polling a db for a status / calling a stored procedure... It could connect out to other business services, xml gateways and so-on.
From a technical aspect / development perspective I always thought of that the Oracle Apps Adapter simplifies the development but, may is not flexible. The App Adapter's strength is the services that are difficult to integrate with (business services, xml gateway). If you need to hook in to these types of services, use the APPS adapter. (Again like it is named the "Apps Adapter" its for interacting w/ other applications to enable real-time processing / functionality.
That being said the dbAdapter can be very powerful but, like it is named is database focused (to poll some table to know when to kick off other logic and enable real-time functionality through database interaction.
Looking at the Oracle 12C Roadmap I had heard that there is more planned for the Oracle Apps Adapter moving forward, especially as Anuj said in the "Financial Apps" side of the isle at Oracle. Who knows what is real and what isn't though =]
Hope this helps!
