Difference between header and item table

hi experts
I have doubt in choosing header and item table. what is the difference between them. on what situations they can be choosed, how can i conclude that my object needs only item or header table.
thanks in advance.
maaya

Hi
Header will be always a single time data in a transaction
where as Item data is Multiple lines of data
Item data in most of the times consists of more number of lines.
see the header and Item related tables for some Tcodes
Tcode      Header   Item
VA01       VBAK    VBAP Sales order
VL01N     LIKP       LIPS    Delivery
VF01       VBRk      VBRP   Invoice/Billing Doc
ME21N    EKKO     EKPO   Pur order

Difference between header and item movement types in MIGO

Dear all,
what is the difference between movement type entered in header of MIGO and item level?
not all movements are possible in header. how it is controlled? may not be in OMJJ
thanks and regards
gajanan

Hi Gajanan,
Movement types in Standard SAP are predefined. You can also create a new movement type, but generally it is not required.
In MIGO ,movement types on right hand side corner changes as per the transaction your are carrying out in header level like
Good reciept, Good issue, , Cancellation, subsequent adjustment, Remove from storage, placer in storage etc.....
As you go for transaction and make allocation in the allocation field, the movement type changes.

Difference between Header and Item level distribution of GOA

Hi,
Can anyone tell me the difference between distribution of GOA at header level and item level?
can we create multiple operational contracts in ECC when we distribute one GOA?
Thanks
Sindhu

Hi
Which ECC Version are you using ?
The transaction for creating a GOA in SAP Frontend is BBP_CTR_MAINCC. The Transaction BBP_CTR_MAINCC cannot be called in the Easy Access. Go with /N then call the transaction.

Opportunity Header and Item tables

I am looking at the keys on the Opportunity Header and Item table which are GUIDs.
I have the following scenario.
1. My source table contains the Opportunity Header GUID
2. My target table requires all the fields from the source table and some Opportunity Header and Item attributes
I can write WHERE clause logic for my Opportunity Header attributes
For my Opportunity item attributes I was going to introduce a count - this is not possible with Item GUID unless a part of the GUID is incremental for each line by 1 or there is a maintained field otherwise as part of the Opportunity Item which is a number representation for each line.
Can someone advise
Thanks

Hi,
In the CRMD_ORDERADM_H table you have the Opportunity GUID as well as the Object ID which is the opportunity id. In the CRMD_ORDERADM_I table, you have the GUID and also the NUMBER_INT which is the item number. See if you can use the item number.
Thanks.

Header and Item table - Form Design Question

Hi All,
I have a header table and Item table. For every record in the header table I have multiple records in the item table. I want to have a adobe form in the following way
1. A new page starts for every record in the header table and Items in the item table for this header record can span multiple pages with the same header information.
2. When all the items are displayed for that particular header record, a new page should start for the next header record.
I created one internal table in the following way
Header_field1 Header_field2 Item_table(with all the items for this header record)
Header_field1 Header_field2 Item_table(with all the items for this header record)
I am not sure how to use a table for this scenario (Should It be a nested table?).
Please provide me some ideas.
Thanks,
Ganesh.

Hi Balasubramani,
I made some changes and have the following now. Can you please let me know how I can achieve page break for every BP_NUMBER.
I have a nested table like the one below.
Main table u2013 Has header and Items information. Every header record has some header information like BP number, name and all line items for that BP in a nested table .
IT_HEADER:
BP_NUMBER     BP_NAME           IT_ITEMS(Items table)
BP_NUMBER     BP_NAME           IT_ITEMS
BP_NUMBER     BP_NAME           IT_ITEMS
To display this information I created the following
Subform1 u2013 overflow u2013bound to $record.IT_HEADER.DATA[*] u2013 (Repeat sub form for
|                                             each data item)
|->Header sub form u2013 Positioned
|     |
|     |-> Text Field u2013 bound to BP_NUMBER
|
|
|->Item sub form -
     |
     |->Item Table u2013 bound to IT_ITEMS
          |
          |->Data u2013 bound to IT_ITEMS.DATA[*] u2013(Repeat row for each data item)
In the output BP number in the first record of IT_HEADER gets displayed and then all the Item records in IT_ITEMS for that BP get displayed. This is repeated all the records in IT_HEADER which is perfectly fine.
Please provide me some suggestions to solve the following issues I am having
1.     I need a page break between records of IT_HEADER. I want the new subform1 for the next header record to start in a new page. I tried conditional break option, on the only field BP number in header sub form. I have two master pages and two body pages. All the above information is in master page 2 and body page 2. I am also not sure what to select in the TO section of the conditional break screen.
2.     When there is an overflow in IT_ITEMS I need the Header sub form to be shown in the next page too.
Thanks,
Ganesh.

Difference between all_tab_cols and col tables....

krishna

Hi ,
Difference between few columns views
DBA_TAB_COLUMNS has metadata for All columns of all Tables,Views and Clusters in the database.
DBA_TAB_COLUMNS view differs from DBA_TAB_COLS in that hidden columns are filtered out.
ALL_TAB_COLUMNS has metadata for Columns of user's tables, views and clusters .
ALL_TAB_COLS will have hidden columns also , similar to DBA_TAB_COLUMNS

Difference between YVBUK and XVBUK tables

Hello,
   Can somebody explain me the user of Y* and X* tables for application tables such as VBUK, LIKP etc. in user exits?
According to note 415716 Y* tables store the condition of the record currently in the database and X* tables stores the changed value. But what happens if its a new record (UPDKZ = I), shouldnt Y* table be blank?
We have the following code in the user exit
INCLUDE YVUEPRZ1_DOC_SAVE_PREP_CARRIER                             *
perform update only if insert or update carrier
UPDKZ : Update indicator
DATA : ls_vbpa LIKE xvbpa.
LOOP AT xlikp.
v_index = sy-tabix.
CLEAR ls_vbpa.
READ TABLE xvbpa INTO ls_vbpa
                   WITH KEY vbeln = xlikp-vbeln
                            parvw = 'SP'.
CASE ls_vbpa-updkz.
    WHEN 'I' OR 'U'.
      MOVE-CORRESPONDING xlikp TO likp.
      MOVE-CORRESPONDING xlikp TO likpd.
*--   Prepare changes of the delivery header
      PERFORM likp_bearbeiten_vorbereiten(sapfv50k).
      likp-yylfnr = ls_vbpa-lifnr.
*--   Check and confirm changes
      PERFORM likp_bearbeiten(sapfv50k).
      MOVE-CORRESPONDING likp TO xlikp.
      MOVE-CORRESPONDING likpd TO xlikp.
      MODIFY xlikp INDEX v_index.
      IF t180-trtyp = 'V'. "Modification
        xvbuk-uvk03 = 'D'.
        xvbuk-updkz = 'U'.
        MODIFY xvbuk TRANSPORTING uvk03 updkz WHERE vbeln = xlikp-vbeln.
      ENDIF.
    WHEN 'D'.
      MOVE-CORRESPONDING xlikp TO likp.
      MOVE-CORRESPONDING xlikp TO likpd.
*--   Prepare changes of the delivery header
      PERFORM likp_bearbeiten_vorbereiten(sapfv50k).
      CLEAR likp-yylfnr.
*--   Check and confirm changes
      PERFORM likp_bearbeiten(sapfv50k).
      MOVE-CORRESPONDING likp TO xlikp.
      MOVE-CORRESPONDING likpd TO xlikp.
      MODIFY xlikp INDEX v_index.
      IF t180-trtyp = 'V'. "Modification
        xvbuk-uvk03 = 'D'.
        xvbuk-updkz = 'U'.
        MODIFY xvbuk TRANSPORTING uvk03 updkz WHERE vbeln = xlikp-vbeln.
      ENDIF.
ENDCASE.
ENDLOOP.
Now the problem is that SAP is saying that the table YVBUK also has to have the same record as XVBUK but I think its absurd for UPDKZ = I since there will be no database image for that.
thanks

To answer Peluka's question there are no entries in Y* table when UPDKZ = I or UPDKZ = U
and I dont quite understand what Ferry Lianto is saying but I think its pretty much the same as above
thanks for your help

How can i join the header and item table to fetch the data

hi experts,
i have a doubt in using inner join or for all entries, for fetching the data from the item table mseg, by taking the doc.no from mkpf. Plz sort out the difference, what happens, if i use the both statements for fetching data

Hi,
Both has same functionality.
but if u are using FAE, u ahev to check for the
~intial condition of the source table,
~ duplicate entries, if any
Inner join will fetch the data from all the join tables at once. FAE will fetch the date from a table first then use that data to fetch data from subsequent table.
say in ur case, if u r using FAE,
1.select from mkpf.
2.select from mseg fae in I_MKPF.
first try using JOIN. if it is taking lots of time, then try FAE.

madhu

Difference between Infotype and Database table

Hi all,
in SAP ABAP-HR we have the concept of INFOTYPE. will anybpdy please tell me , in simple word, what exactly is it? and what are the difference of INFOTYPE with DATABASE TABLE.
Anirban Bhattacharjee

hi,
    infotypes contains group of logically related fields on a single screen (just like TABLE) and which is bounded by TIME CONSTRIANT (no time constrint for table).
main diffarence is TIME CONSTRAINT, means validity period of data records in infotypes based on time constrint only.
for more information on time constrint follow this link.........
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_erp2005/helpdata/en/48/35c9f24abf11d18a0f0000e816ae6e/content.htm
each infotype contains, its corresponding database table.
ex: 0002---> personal information.
     its database table: pa0002.
    the table pa0002 contains four strctures pakey, pshd1, ps0002 and ci_p0002.
    pakey-->contains key fields information.
    psdh1--->contains last logon detils (usename....)
    ps0002--->contains infotype specific fields.
    ci_p0002--> for furthur addinf an any extra fields

Header and item level approval using N level BADI

Hi Experts,
I beleive we can use either header level or item level approval workflow (WS14000133 and WS14500015) using N Approval-BADI. Please advise what information approval will be able to see if we will be using WS14000133 (Header level approval). Can he see all line item information or header level only.
Regards,
Kamal

In SRM the same BADI is used for SC, PO, Invoice and others as well.. If you see the example implementation provided by SAP, you can see the use of CASE statement with different Business Objects and code under it.
Irrespective of the Header level or Item level approval workflow the same BADI has to be implemented.
The difference between Header and Item Level approval is
1) In Header level, approval or rejection is done for the whole cart (there can be 1 item or multiple items).
Approver will be able to see all the items in the cart.
2) In Item level, approval or rejection is done for each and every line item. here is an example ---
Line item 1 has Cost Center as Account Assignment Category and has to be approved by Users A and B.
Line item 2 has Internal Order as Account Assignment Category and has to be approved by Users C and D.
Item 1 goes to user A and once approved, it goes to B. they will not be able to approve or reject item 2. but we can restrict user A and B to see item 2 or not by setting a flag..
Item 2 goes to user C and once approved, it goes to D. they will not be able to approve or reject item 1. but we can restrict user C and D to see item 1 or not by setting a flag..
The SC will get released only after all the items are approved.
For Header Level approval, you need to fill the APPROVAL_TABLE.
For Item Level approval, you need to make use of APPROVAL_TABLE, ITEM_APPROVAL_TABLE and ITEM_APPROVAL_OBJ.
Examples provided by SAP might give you an idea how to code for Header and Item Level.
Hope this gives you some information .....
Regards,
PR.

Pricing : Frieght calculation - differentiate Header and Item level

Dear friends,
I have a requirement wherein I have to find the sum of the gross weight of all line items at header level and round off the value to the next 500 gms.This value will be shown at the Header Conditions tab in the condition record ZFRD.
The rounding off should not happen at the item level (i.e in Item - Conditions tab ).
I have developed a base type for this.But at the configuration level, the group condition and item condition are checked, Hence the rounding off works at the header as well as the ITEM level.
Can anyone suggest me if there is any field which differentiate between header and item calculation.
So that I can check that field and restrict the pricing only to the header level.
i am trying this functionality at pricing procedure level by creating a new formula for condition base value and passing gross weight to XKWERT field.
Thanks in Advance!!!!

Hi
Have you tried to save a document and check what you can see for that condition?
I think the header value is being transfered to the item while you're debugging
When you'tr header level PRICING_COMPLETE should be called
Max

In SAP we have the various Level of Data...
for example of a Sales Document.
The Sales Header Data would Contain various bussiness flowws how the document should behave should it be a Sales Order or a Quotation or A frwee of charge delivery.
Now the Item which you enter in the order the materails I mean will have the controls from the Item Data that you maintain in the Item categories.
The Sales Order next to be delievered by a delivery so these data goes to the schedule line level control.....
Hope you will get some light on what is explained above.
