Difference between "Export" and "Save As..."

...in QT Pro (or MPEG Streamclip, or any other video software for that matter)?
Cheers

MPEG Streamclip doesn't have a Save As as much as if you start with MPEG 1 or 2 you can "convert" to MPEG and it will not recompress but rewirte your edited file with a new timecode.
All else it does reencode, e.g. to DV or MPEG-4 unless you are demuxing, in which case you get the two files from the one, video and audio.

What is the difference between pause and save in Hyper-V?

hi,
What is the difference between pause and save in Hyper-V?
What are the benefits of using each function?
Thanks

WHen you save VM, Hyper-V saves VM state to disk and frees all memory and CPU resources used by VM. When you pause a VM, Hyper-V saves VM cpu state in memory, and then stops VM's cpu processes without releasing its memory. Since no disk operations are involved,
pausing and resuming can be done much faster than saving and restoring a VM.

FV70 what is the difference between Park and Save as completed?

HI,
Can anyone explain, what is the differences between Park and Save as completed in t-code FV70?
in FBV0 post park document, I still can post both document?
Thanks

Hi,
The main difference between park and save as completed is that in "Save as Completed", system do some checks as it do in posting the ocuments, like:-
(1) Balance should be zero.
(2) All lines should have been filled with the required data.
(3) There should be at least two lines in the document.

Difference between "Export" and "Export form Fact Table" package

Hi experts!
Could you tell me what is the difference between "Export" and "Export form Fact Table" package?
Tkanks
Gabriel

Hi,
Basic difference between Export and Export from Fact Table is
In standard package "Export" : We can perform this function when we are online and we have adequate amount of data to be exported. We can run this package eg: weekly or monthly. Here we use u201CExport Packageu201D to pull the data
And in the administrative package "Export from Fact Table" Mostly it is used to do the backend data loading basically bulk data , also any formula logic has to be implemented on the data in that case we use the administrative package.
Hope this helps.

What's the difference between Export and Publish to Disk?

Hi folks,
I am wondering what's the difference betewwen "Export" and "Publish" to the local Disk?
Greetings from Germany
JK

Export is a one-way process, no connection back to the original images.
Publish creates a connection that allows you to see what images have changed (in LR) since they were first published. Very useful for on-going projects such as images for a book that you may still be editing.

Difference Between Export and Direct Import Process.

Hi SD Gurus,
Can anyone help to understnad difference betwenn Export and Direct Import Process.

Hi,
export = out of the system or country
import = into the system or country
For example in SAP-ABAP
On the EXPORT side
DATA: ls_indx TYPE indx.
ls_indx-aedat = sy-datum.
ls_indx-usera = sy-uname.
ls_indx-pgmid = 'ZNAME'.
EXPORT tab = lt_orders
TO DATABASE indx(v1)
FROM ls_indx ID 'PERCENT'.
On the IMPORT side
DATA: ls_indx TYPE indx.
ls_indx-aedat = sy-datum.
ls_indx-usera = sy-uname.
ls_indx-pgmid = 'ZNAME'.
IMPORT tab = lt_orders
FROM DATABASE indx(v1)
TO ls_indx ID 'PERCENT'

Difference between Export and Adobe PDF presets..?

Hi,
It is possible to export a PDF from InDesign (CS3) using both the Export menu and the Adobe PDF Presets menu (both are sub-menus under File)
Technically they seem to do exactly the same thing, both allow you to use predefined presets to export your PDF.
What I am wondering is, are there any differences between the two? And if so, what are they?
Any help would be appreciated, thanks!

PDF Presets are what they are Presets. You may get a joboptions file from someone to use and use the PDF Presets to load the joboptions (pdf options) file into the Presets.
Then they become available in the Export Options.
Alternatively you can go into the PDF Presets and then choose to Save one of your presets to file, then email that or give the file to someone else to load onto their computer in their version of InDesign.
This way you can both have the same PDF export options.
But the presets are just a way to create, save, load and edit profiles that are available when you go to Export to PDF.

Apparent differences between Exported and Exported Catalog images

In trying to recover from a 'shot self in foot' error when managing some images, I have exported some selected images from Lightroom V3 and also performed an 'Export as Catalog' step. The hard disk destinations for the 2 exports are different. To my surprise the images also appear different and are of different size. The export of selected images appears to create the result I expect - that is when browsing the exported images (within PhotoMechanic for example) the images I see are what I expect. But the images that are exported as part of the export as catalog appear to have discarded all the 'retouching' I did to them in the Develop module ( when browsed in the same way).
Is this because the changes that I made as part of the retouching are kept within some sort of catalog files when I export as a catalog, but are written into the image file when I export a selection of individual images? I notice that there are no sidecar files in the folder where Lightroom is holding the images.
(By the way I am dealing with TIFFs produced by scanning 40+ year old slides in an Epson V700 scanner. The workflow I have been using is the cause of my original 'shot in foot' issue.)

Ah! Thanks for this.
In fact the original form is what I really need, as well as the edited form. (I was not aware that this is how I could get to that original form). Perhaps a litlte more background will help:
I started with a folder of master/original scanned images on 1 drive and then did a physical copy to a 2nd drive. I imported the images . in place - into Lightroom from this second drive, with the intention of leaving the master/original versions untouched. I have been using 2 diffeent scanning applications: Epson Scan and Silverfast Ai. At some stage I started to import directly into Lightroom from the master/original folder on the first drive instead of from the copies on the second drive. I also further fouled things up by scanning images directly into the Lightroom managed folder on the second drive, instead of into the master/originals folder. Having then done some editing I am in the confusing situation of having 'orginal' and edited' images on both drives.
Now what I want to is to put all unedited images only into the master/original folder on the first drive and be sure that the Lightroom library contains all the edited images as well as imported copies of images that I have not yet had a chance to edit.
It is clear now from your advice that I can recreate my 'master/original/images throuhg the 'export as catalog' process. But it is not clear that I can capture all of the edting that I have done already. I have stupidly stored some of those edits in the wrong folder.

iPad apps are designed specifically for the iPad and will not run on the iPhone or iPod Touch. iPhone/iPod apps will run on the iPad, but will only take up an iPhone sized portion of the iPad screen (though you get a 2x button which effectively doubles each pixel in both directions so may appear pixelated). There are also 'universal' apps (which have a '+' symbol against them in the store) which have processing in them to recognise the device that they are on and will tailor the display accordingly (so will make use of the iPad's larger screen).

Difference between Export QT and Export Using QT Conversion?

I am exporting video from FCE4 into iDVD, and can't understand the difference between Export QuickTime Movie and Export Using QuickTime Conversion.
The first is much faster, but the video seems to suffer in quality. Am I missing something?
Thanks!

"Export Using QuickTime Conversion" gives you many more options
(and many more ways of making mistakes); and it always recompresses.
Using "Export QuickTime Movie" gives you the option to uncheck
the "Recompress" box, which should produce a better result,
if you're not changing codecs.

What is the difference between SWF and F4V in the context of Streaming or progressive Download?

Hello everybody,
I am absolutely a beginner in working with Captivate and furthermore my technological know how is not that good.
So, I have problems to understand if the export formats SWF and F4V are both capable to be published in the Internet as streaming video and as progressive Download? Well so, I do not really understand the difference between streaming and progessive download either?
Furthermore I was asking myself if this issue depends on how I imported flash videos (there are these two options) in my Captivate project during the production phase?
I would be very thankful for some helping information!
Greetings,
Mareike the beginner

Welcome to our community
I'm not certain I fully understand the differences myself, but will toss out what I believe to be true about the formats. Hopefully, if I'm incorrect in my bellief, someone with more definitive knowledge will chime in.
It was explained to me a couple of years back and is my understanding that "streaming" only applies to a video based format such as F4V, FLV and it doesn't apply to SWF. With SWF, you may specify a preload value. So when the SWF transmits from the web server to the PC, a certain percentage has to be received before play begins. But that's not streaming. It's preloading.
For streaming to occur, the web server establishes a communication channel between the server and the destination PC. This channel is monitored to see what speed is in use. Only enough information is then transmitted to be comfortable at that speed. If the speed improves during the connection, the server serves data at a faster rate. If the connection degrades, the information transmitted is also scaled back so as to accommodate the lower speed.
With SWF, after it has all been downloaded, a savvy user is able to poke around in their temporary internet files and save the SWF for play later. With streaming, this isn't possible because as the stream is viewed, it evaporates from memory.
Seriously hoping others will chime in here to confirm or deny this.
Cheers... Rick

What is the difference between ABAP and HR-ABAP?

Hi people,
Could u just tel me abt what is the difference between ABAP and HR-ABAP?

HR deals with the INFOTYPES which are similar to Tables in General ABAP.
There are different ways of fetching data from these infotypes.
There are different areas in HR LIKE Personal Admn, Orgn Management, Benefits, Time amangement, Event Management, Payroll etc
Infotypes for these areas are different from one another area.
storing of records data in each type of area is different
LDBS like PNP are used in HR programing.
Instead of Select.. we use some ROUTINES and PROVIDE..ENDPROVIDE.. etc
and in the case of Pay roll we use Clusters and we Import and Export them for data fetching.
On the whole Normal ABAP is different from HR abap.

All custom developed infotypes stsrat with PA9000 onwards.
In payroll processing we use Clusters like PCL1,2,3 and 4.
Instead of Select query we use PROVIDE and ENDPROVIDE..
You have to assign a Logical Database in the attributes PNP.

And finally,
Few notes are below:
InfoSets in the HR Application
You can use SAP Query in HR to report on HR data. Queries are maintained as described in Creating Queries. The special features of queries created for HR are described in Maintaining Queries in the Human Resources Application. The maintenance procedure for HR InfoSets differs from the described procedure inasmuch as HR data fields are grouped together in infotypes.
InfoSet management in SAP Query is also used for InfoSet Query. For further information, see Functions for Managing InfoSets.
If you want to create InfoSets for HR, you can use logical databases PNP, PNPCE, PAP, and PCH (see HR Logical Databases). The database you must use to create your InfoSet depends on the component in which the data you want to report on is stored.
The reports you can execute using InfoSets based on logical databases PNP (or PNPCE) or PCH are similar, but differ in that they can select different objects. The following table describes the connection between the logical database, and the infotypes you can include in an InfoSet. It also provides you with one or two examples of reports that you can execute using the appropriate InfoSets.
Logical database PNP/PNPCE* PCH PAP
Selection of Persons Objects from Personnel Planning Applicants
Infotypes that can be included in the InfoSet Infotypes for· Personnel Administration (0000-0999) · Time Management (2000-2999) · Payroll infotypes · Infotypes for Personnel Planning objects that can be related to persons If the object type is specified:· Infotypes for the object type · Infotypes for objects that can be related to the specified object typeIf the object type is not specified:· All infotypes · Infotypes for Recruitment (4000-4999)· Some infotypes for Personnel Administration (such as 0001 and 0002)
· Customer infotypes
Reporting examples · Selection of all persons who participated in a specific business event, output of prices for reserved business events · Selection of all persons assigned to a specific personnel area, output of qualifications held by these persons · Selection of all business events held in London in March, output of all persons who participated in these business events · Selection of all positions assigned to a specific organizational unit, output of all persons assigned to the positions · Selection of all applicants hired last year to work on special projects, output of addresses for the applicants selected
Logical database PNPCE (PNP Concurrent Employment) functions just like logical database PNP. The procedure for creating InfoSets is also the same. It only becomes significant if you work with Concurrent Employment.
Creating InfoSets
The maintenance procedure for HR InfoSets differs from the procedure described so far in this section inasmuch as HR data fields are grouped together in infotypes. To set up an InfoSet for the HR application, proceed as follows:
1. On the initial screen for maintaining InfoSets, enter a name for the InfoSet and choose Create.
2. On the next screen, enter a name for the InfoSet and select one of the HR logical databases in accordance with your reporting requirements.
Customer infotypes can be created on all HR logical databases. In each individual case, therefore, you must decide which database to select so that you can report on customer infotypes.
This screen enables you to enter an authorization group. All of the queries that are subsequently created using this InfoSet can only be executed by persons who have this authorization group.
3. Choose .
This takes you to the Infotype Selection for InfoSet screen. You now have the option of creating field groups and assigning fields as required for non-HR InfoSets. Field groups that correspond to infotypes and already contain fields, however, are always created for HR InfoSets. The field groups are displayed in an overview tree in the top right section of the screen.
The infotypes that you included in the InfoSet are displayed in an overview tree on the left of the screen. The infotype fields that are already included in field groups are displayed in a different color, and the corresponding field group ID is displayed.
In the standard system, a field group is created automatically for each infotype that you included in the InfoSet (a field group corresponds to an infotype).
In the standard system, each field group contains the infotype-specific fields. To ensure that working with the InfoSet is as easy as possible, you are advised to restrict your use of fields in each field group to those you really require. This means you should remove fields that are not required.
An infotype's fields must only be assigned to the pertinent field group. Make sure this assignment is correct. If the assignment is incorrect, the InfoSet could be rendered unusable.
When an InfoSet is created, the following fields are transferred automatically to the first field group:
§ Logical database PNPCE or PNP Personnel number
§ Logical database PAP Applicant number
§ Logical database PCH Object ID, plan version, and object type
6. Determine the fields that must be included in the field groups of your InfoSet. If you require further information, see Assigning Fields to a Field Group.
If you want, you can change the default sequence of field groups and fields as required using Drag&Drop.
7. To save the InfoSet, choose .
8. To generate the InfoSet, choose .
On the Change InfoSet (InfoSet name) screen, you can choose Edit ® Change infotype selection to add more infotypes to the InfoSet, or to remove infotypes from the InfoSet. Remember to regenerate the InfoSet afterwards.
This screen also enables you to update InfoSets if, for example, the system contains new additional fields for specific key values. To do so, choose InfoSet ® Additional functions ® Update additional HR fields.
9. Go back to the initial screen for InfoSet maintenance.
10. Choose User group assignment.
11. Select a user group, and save your entry.

MAIN DIFFERENCES BETWEEN PARALLEL AND SEQUENTAIL PRCESSING???

HI PALS,
I WANT THE COMPLETE DIFFERENCES BETWEEN PARALLEL AND SEQUENTIAL PROCESSING!
IN THE CONTEXT OF RFC.

Hi
Parallel Processing
To achieve a balanced distribution of the system load, you can use destination additions to execute function modules in parallel tasks in any application server or in a predefined application server group of an SAP system.
Parallel-processing is implemented with a special variant of asynchonous RFC. Itu2019s important that you use only the correct variant for your own parallel processing applications: the CALL FUNCTION STARTING NEW TASK DESTINATION IN GROUP keyword. Using other variants of asynchronous RFC circumvents the built-in safeguards in the correct keyword, and can bring your system to its knees
Details are discussed in the following subsections:
·        Prerequisites for Parallel Processing
·        Function Modules and ABAP Keywords for Parallel Processing
·        Managing Resources in Parallel Processing
Prerequisites for Parallel Processing
Before you implement parallel processing, make sure that your application and your SAP system meet these requirements:
·        Logically-independent units of work:
The data processing task that is to be carried out in parallel must be logically independent of other instances of the task. That is, the task can be carried out without reference to other records from the same data set that are also being processed in parallel, and the task is not dependent upon the results of others of the parallel operations. For example, parallel processing is not suitable for data that must be sequentially processed or in which the processing of one data item is dependent upon the processing of another item of the data.
By definition, there is no guarantee that data will be processed in a particular order in parallel processing or that a particular result will be available at a given point in processing.
·        ABAP requirements:
¡        The function module that you call must be marked as externally callable. This attribute is specified in the Remote function call supported field in the function module definition (transaction SE37).
¡        The called function module may not include a function call to the destination u201CBACK.u201D
¡        The calling program should not change to a new internal session after making an asynchronous RFC call. That is, you should not use SUBMIT or CALL TRANSACTION in such a report after using CALL FUNCTION STARTING NEW TASK.
¡        You cannot use the CALL FUNCTION STARTING NEW TASK DESTINATION IN GROUP keyword to start external programs.
·        System resources:
In order to process tasks from parallel jobs, a server in your SAP system must have at least 3 dialog work processes. It must also meet the workload criteria of the parallel processing system: Dispatcher queue less than 10% full, at least one dialog work process free for processing tasks from the parallel job.
Function Modules and ABAP Keywords for Parallel Processing
You can implement parallel processing in your applications by using the following function modules and ABAP keywords:
·        SPBT_INITIALIZE: Optional function module.
Use to determine the availability of resources for parallel processing.
You can do the following:
¡        check that the parallel processing group that you have specified is correct.
¡        find out how many work processes are available so that you can more efficiently size the packets of data that are to be processed in your data.
·        CALL FUNCTION Remotefunction STARTING NEW TASK Taskname DESTINATION IN GROUP:
With this ABAP statement, you are telling the SAP system to process function module calls in parallel. Typically, youu2019ll place this keyword in a loop in which you divide up the data that is to be processed into work packets. You can pass the data that is to be processed in the form of an internal table (EXPORT, TABLE arguments). The keyword implements parallel processing by dispatching asynchronous RFC calls to the servers that are available in the RFC server group specified for the processing.
Note that your RFC calls with CALL FUNCTION are processed in work processes of type DIALOG. The DIALOG limit on processing of one dialog step (by default 300 seconds, system profile parameter rdisp/max_wprun_time) applies to these RFC calls. Keep this limit in mind when you divide up data for parallel processing calls.
·        SPBT_GET_PP_DESTINATION: Optional function module.
Call immediately after the CALL FUNCTION keyword to get the name of the server on which the parallel processing task will be run.
·        SPBT_DO_NOT_USE_SERVER: Optional function module.
Excludes a particular server from further use for processing parallel processing tasks. Use in conjunction with SPBT_GET_PP_DESTINATION if you determine that a particular server is not available for parallel processing (for example, COMMUNICATION FAILURE exception if a server becomes unavailable).
·        WAIT: ABAP keyword
WAIT UNTIL
Required if you wish to wait for all of the asynchronous parallel tasks created with CALL FUNCTION to return. This is normally a requirement for orderly background processing. May be used only if the CALL FUNCTION includes the PERFORMING ON RETURN addition.
·        RECEIVE: ABAP keyword
RECEIVE RESULTS FROM FUNCTION Remotefunction
Required if you wish to receive the results of the processing of an asynchronous RFC. RECEIVE retrieves IMPORT and TABLE parameters as well as messages and return codes.
Managing Resources in Parallel Processing
You use the following destination additions to perform parallel execution of function modules (asynchronous calls) in the SAP system:
In a predefined group of application servers:
CALL FUNCTION Remotefunction STARTING NEW TASK Taskname
DESTINATION IN GROUP Groupname
In all currently available and active application servers:
CALL FUNCTION Remotefunction STARTING NEW TASK Taskname
DESTINATION IN GROUP DEFAULT
Sequential Processing
In the following cases, the system chooses sequential (non-parallel) processing:
●      In table RSADMIN, entry QUERY_MAX_WP_DIAG has value (column value) 1.
●      The entire query consists of one sub-access only.
●      The query is running in a batch process.
●      The query was started from the query monitor (transaction RSRT) using various debug options (for example, SQL query display, execution plan display). See, Dividing a MultiProvider Query into Sub-Queries.
●      The query requests non-cumulative key figures.
●      Insufficient dialog processes are available when the query is executed. These are required for parallel processing.
●      The query is configured for non-parallel processing.
●      You want to save the result of the query in a file or a table.
In Release SAP NetWeaver 7.0, the system can efficiently manage the large intermediate results produced by parallel processing. In previous releases, the system terminated when it reached a particular intermediate result size and proceeded to read data sequentially. This is no longer the case. Therefore, the RSADMIN parameter that was used in previous releases for reading a MultiProvider sequentially is no longer used.

Difference between "Web" and "Streaming"

Can anyone tell me what the difference between Web and Streaming is when exporting a Movie from iMovie? I know they both go on a webpage but why are there two options?
Thanks

True streaming media is not cached on the viewing machine. No cache means nothing to save as a new file. You can only save a "reference" to the source file stream.
Media Links (very cool feature rarely used by most users) make a .qtl file. This is also just a reference movie (very tiny file size) but can include many features found (usually) in the Pro upgrade of QuickTIme and/or AppleScript and Automator Action features.
Using Media Link files will allow you to add "Presentation" playback features to your QuickTime file (Full Screen, close when done, etc). You can add a "link" inside your QuickTime file so when the image is clicked a Web page would open. One of mine as an example:
http://homepage.mac.com/kkirkster/GetA_MacText.qtl
You'll notice the file will download (0.3KB's) then launch QuickTime Player and play full screen. Click on the movie to learn more.

Difference between LSMW and CATT

Hi all,
Can anybody tell me the difference between LSMW and CATT?

CATT
SAP users use CATT frequently to upload master data or to
make changes to master data records. SAP Consultants and
Abapers tend to use it for creating test data. The
transactions run without user interaction. You can check
system messages and test database changes. All tests are
logged. The CATT records your keystrokes while performing
the actual transaction. You then identify the fields that
you wish to change in that view. Then export this data to a
spreadsheet to populate with the data required. This is
uploaded and executed saving you keying in the data
manually.
To perform CATT, it has to be enabled in your production
environment (your systems administrator should be able to
do this - SCC4). You will also need access to your
development system to create the CATT script.
The process of uploading data with a CATT:
Activate CATT in your client
In transaction code SCC4 - click the change button
Double click on the client number
In the Restriction section, tick Allows CATT processes to
be started.
Upload data using CATT
1. Create Import variant for the fields you need
Transaction SCAT
Goto Parameters
Create Import Variant
Goto Variant -> Edit
Goto Variant -> Fast entry or F9
Duplicate 01
2. To change the MRP Group for a list of Material
Assuming that I want to change the MRP Group for a list of
Material.
My text files should look something like this:
[Variant ID] [Variant Text] &ZDISGR &ZMATNR
--> Parameter texts MRP group Material
--> Default Values M1 A001
Changes to the default values displayed above not
effective
#01 M1 A001
#02 ''     A002
#03 M1 A003
Note : '' denotes a blank in the field. e.g. Material A002
MRP group will be replaced by a blank.
3. Configure the recorded entry fields to read from the
imported text file data
In the CATT : Maintain functions test case Screen
Double click on the Object Name
Double click on the screen number with your desired fields
Park the cursor on the fields
Click Edit -> Details
Fill in the Parameters Name and Field Contents
Finish Save it.
Assign your text file data.
In the CATT : Execute test case Screen
Click External from file and choose your text file
CATT will now read from your text file and update whatever
data you have specified.
LSMW
Using LSMW you can update any kind of data but no changes to database are allowed, where as CATT tool can update only master data, which also allows changes to the master data and also a significant testing of data is possible. LSMW is a tool that offers you 4 ways to import data into SAP, they are BDC, Direct Input, BAPI(BO), IDOC.It is used for migrating the data b/w the Non-SAP and SAP application to do for that we can take the Non-SAP application data and Converts the data into the Legacy data. After the Legacy data creation convert the data in to the "Flat file". That flat file is in the form of text file or excel format.If the file is in the form of text format
we can create the ".txt" file ("ABC.txt")and in the form of
excel ".xls" file is created. flat file for dos and .xls
file for IBM. The converted file (.txt/.xls)is either upload or download. The Upload functionality if used for .txt file to SAP and where as Downloading is the concept while SAP to .txt/.xls file.
Execute the transaction LSMW to start transfer of data,Before using the LSMW we should have good knowledge about the business object and the fields that will be transferred.
There are 14 steps that are normally used and these are :
1)   Maintain Object Attributes.
