Difference between Hot Pack and Support Pack

Hello,
Can anyone throw some light on difference between Hot Pack and Support Pack(if there is any) and what is Tax Update Bulletins, do we need to configure for TUBs or what is the SAP HR consultants role is Tubs.
Thanks
Charlene

Hi,
I believe both (hot pack and support pack) are one and the same.
For TUBS, you can find more information in:
Service Marketplace -> SAP ERP Human Capital Management -> Country Info -> North America -> United States -> Tax Update Bulletins -> Tax Factory 8 -> Tub Downloads
Hope this helps,
Reward points if helpful,
Thank You,

1. A service pack (in short SP) is a collection of updates, fixes and/or enhancements to a software program delivered in the form of a single installable package. Service packs are usually numbered, and thus shortly referred to as SP1, SP2, etc. It is notable that they may bring, besides bug fixes, entirely new features.

For the ABAP parts of usage type PI, this is the implementation of support packages. For the Java parts, the deployment with the Java Support Package Manager (JSPM) is used.
You can find currently available support packages on SAP Service Marketplace at service.sap.com/sp-stacks.
A description of how to apply support packages is available in SAP Note 879289.

Anywhere to find newly added countries in enhancement pack and support pack

Our HR wants to proactively identify the new countries being introduced through enhancement pack and support pack, so configurations such as V_T503Z (country assignment for employee group/subgroup) can be updated accordingly.
How can I find such a list?
Thanks.
Joan

Hi Qiong
If you have ever tried downloading the notes delivered under CLC or HRSP for SAP-HR Component, you would see that the sub-component names are generally based on country abbreviations example PY-AU, PY-SG etc. Also the country names are mentioned there. So if any new country comes up you would know it from the sub-component name. However, whether you need to configure anything in your system for these new countries depends on the fact whether your client has operations in that country or not and whether your project is supporting that country operations for the client or not.
It is more likely that we keep checking the CLC and HRSP for any new functionalities introduced by SAP for the countries that we are supporting for the client instead of checking for new countries altogether.

OpenSolaris - Difference between hot swapping and hot plugging?

Hello,
I would like to know the difference between hot swapping and hot plugging on
OpenSolaris. I wonder if someone could please help?
Thank you,
Akino

Hi,
Try saying "hot repair" and "hot upgrade" instead. And then think about all the actions you need to perform to do what you want to do (replace a failed component vs add a new component).
Write if you have questions.

Difference between Rollup patch and family pack

Hi all,
thanks in advance to you all who helps me out with this question
can any one differentiate between Rollup patch and Family pack patch.
thanks,
Vamshi.D

In addition to the above ...
Rollup Patch (RUP): An aggregation of patches that may be at the functional level, or at a specific product/family release level. For example, a Flexfields rollup patch contains all the latest patches related to Flexfields at the time the patch was created. A Marketing Family 11.5.10 rollup patch contains all the latest Marketing patches released since, and applicable to 11.5.10
Family Pack: An aggregation of patches at the product family level. Family product codes always end in "_PF" and family packs are given alphabetical sequence such as 11i.HR_PF.B, 11i.HR_PF.C, and 11i.HR_PF.D. Family packs are cumulative. In other words, Discrete Manufacturing Family Pack G (11i.DMF_PF.G) contains everything in 11i.DMF_PF.F, which contains everything in 11i.DMF_PF.E, and so on.
If you search the rollup patch thru Metalink, it would tell you whether it is included in any other patchset (i.e. Family Pack) or not.

Difference between message processor and support team

Gurus ,

need i have to give first level in message processor and the other on the support team ?
(or)
what is the exact purpose and difference of those fields

HI Susin,
Let me tell you what i know about this issue
1) you create your organisation structure in ppoma_crm where Support Team BP is automatically created and you do not need to create explicitly.
2) Message processor is BP of type employee with object type US.
can be said member of Support team (BP) which you will be assigning in the ppoma_crm transaction.This user should also have an valid S User ID.
This support team configuration in transaction ppoma_crm has its direct link with transaction
crm_dno_monitor where you will filtering the messages belongs to various Support teams.

Service Pack Vs Support Pack

Hi All,
Is there a difference between Service Pack and Support Pack ?
Thanks,
Prashanth

Hi,
I think. This are synonyms.
Microsoft takes the name ServicePack.
In SAP there are same objects to changes the system:
note: to correct one program. to correct one mistake.
support package: change a list programs.
support package stack: group of patches for all software components. SAP tests this combination of corrections intensive.

People keep ask which level support are you supporting..? how do we answer to these questions in interview.. could one please provide info on this.
thank you in advance.Since the terms themselves can be defined differently by different organizations, you'll have to ask the interviewer how HE defines those terms. Once you know that you should know the answer. In asking him how he defines them, you might explain that you are asking because you know the terms can mean different things to different organizations.

Inits/Deltas during Uprgrades and support packs

How are people handling the deltas and initializations when upgrades and support packs are applied to the source system. We had to delete our delta queues and reload everything!!! I know that's not right. ( At least I hope that's not right!!!). Please advise...

Ye s- you should not have to reload targets a a result of an SP/Upgrade.
When there are changes to the PI_BASIS plugin (extraction from ERP), you need to clear your V3 and Delta queues.
When SAP Service API (internal and BI Data mart extraction) is changed, you need to clear the BW delta queues. This can require two complete extraction and laod processes.
As a matter of practice, we always clear all queues prior to an SP/upgrade.
See the How to... Checklist: Rapid SAP Netweaver 7.0 BI Technical Upgrade document which is where you can fins this info page 11or 12.

Difference between 4.6 and ECC 6.0

Can anybody tell me what is the difference between 4.6 and ECC 6.0 related to SD Module.

Hi Sunil,
. Please visit the following links:
http://service.sap.com/erp
http://solutionbrowser.erp.sap.fmpmedia.com/ (Functional perspective)
http://service.sap.com/instguides --> mySAP Business Suite Applications --> mySAP ERP --> mySAP ERP 2005 --> Upgrade
http://help.sap.com/printdocu/core/Print46c/en/data/pdf/LOVC/LOVC.pdf
For Functionality Differences pls refer to the below site -
http://solutionbrowser.erp.sap.fmpmedia.com/
After opening the site, please select the Source Release Version which is 4.6 b Then Select the Target Release Version which is "mySAP ERP 2005" or ECC 6.0
Select the Solution Area like Financials, Human Capital Management, Sales....
Select module like MM, PP, SD, and QM.....
Click on Search
then it displays the Release Version and the Delta Functionality. Which can be downloaded to a word document if required.
And also check the release notes of ECC 6.0 in service.sap.com.
A2. When you are upgrading from 4.6C to ECC6
Nothing major, follow the same process you'd follow if you were updating PI service packs in R/3 or enhancing data sources. Empty queues in RSA7 and lbwq. Also empty setup tables through lbwg as the upgrade doesn't like it if these tables contain data. This is all on the R/3 side (although you empty RSA7 by running each delta TWICE in BW).
To transfer queues from lbwq to rsa7, execute jobs through LO cockpit (lbwe).
Some of your data sources could also be using sm13 instead of lbwq, so do check it out as well.
For installing ECC 6.0 you required a solution manager key. With out solution manager key you cannot install ECC6.0.
For ECC 6.0 is called net weaver component here you have ABAP+JAVA stack.
ECC6.0 supports UNCODE.
For installing 4.6 you don't require solution manager key. It only having ABAP stack.
4.6C supports NONUNICODE.
Major difference is ECC6 is netwear product having WASJAVA+ABAP
secondly support unicode apart from this we have other diff. you can get form master guide from service.sap.com/instguides.

Differences Between Infopackage Groups and Process chains

Hi All,
Can anybody explain me what are the differences between Infopackage Groups and Process Chains ? And how process chains are more comfortable

hi nagarjuna,
An InfoPackage group is a collection of InfoPackages. In order to summarize data requests which logically belong together from a business point of view, and to therefore simplify the request, you can collect data requests (meaning the InfoPackages) into an InfoPackage Group. You can schedule each of these groups in the scheduler . With the data request the scheduler can access InfoPackage groups directly and thereby request more than one InfoPackage at a time, corresponding to the setting in the InfoPackage group. Thus, you can support InfoPackage groups with the serialization of your data requests.
While a process chain is a sequence of processes that wait in the background for an event. Some of these processes trigger a separate event that can start other processes in turn. hit this link to know abt PCs:
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/8f/c08b3baaa59649e10000000a11402f/content.htm
Process chains are more comfortable becoz itz not like infopackages where we have to schedule each pack individually. And in PCs, monitoring is very convenient since u see evrything in a single page.

Difference between Free goods and BOM (ERLA)

Hi,
Could any body throw some light on the Difference between Free goods and BOM(ERLA) to clarify my weired thought.
AS of what i know is Free goods is 1:1 ratio.
The main item will be prices and sub item will be free .
Than same thing is also With BOM (ERLA)
Regards,
Venksys

Hi Venksys
Please note as given below :
Free Goods : This function allows you to offer your customers a product free of charge in the form of free goods when a certain quantity of products is ordered. Free goods is a kind of quantity discount, and is granted in the form of a goods delivery that is free of charge when a certain quantity is purchased. There are Two types of free goods :
1.Inclusive : The customer only pays for part of the goods ordered. The rest of the products are provided at no extra cost. For example, a customer orders for 3 bottels but pays for 2 bottels and 1 is supplied free .
2.Exclusive - The customer pays for the goods ordered, and also receives additional products for free. The materials delivered as free goods will not be the same as that of ordered onces. For examples customer orders 5 bottels , but will receive 1 Bottle opener free.
BOM : It consists of 2 or more items combined and sold as an package : Example : Combination of 1 Tooth paste + 1 tooth brush packed as BOM.
The Higher level Material ( BOM) is not relevant for pricing but relevant for picking : The tooth paste and brush is relevant for pricing and also can be sold independently : The Item cat group of the Header BOM material will be ERLA and for Tooth paste and brush material the Item category group will have TAN.
For more details , please refer to the link below:

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" %>

<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,
Alex

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. 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.
