Difference between Maint workcenter and workcenter in Maintenance order

Dear PM Guru's,
i am little bit confusing regard the follow work center descriptions in maintenance order. In Maintenance order header data One Maint work center is there, and one more in Operation tab one more work center is there. Is these two work centers are maintenance related work centers or  not? if these maintenance work centers how we can define these two separately? in which situation we can use these work centers? In general how we can define the work centers in plant maintenance ? for my client i created based on group of people, for maintenance people one work center and electrical people one work center , these two are i am using at Maint work center field. But  i am not understand workcenter in Operation tab? please guide me , yours suggestions help me to overcome the mistakes if i did any thing wrong. i like to know the impact of the these two work centers use also? if user wants each work center for individual work center how i can map where i can assign this work center?
thanks & regards
Jalu

Hi
from SAP help
The Main Work Center
The main work center usually represents one person or a department, responsible for ensuring that the maintenance work in an order is executed by the work centers performing the individual operations.
The Performing Work Center
The performing work center usually represents one person or a group of people who perform the maintenance work in the operations of an order.
Use
The Main Work Center
The main work center must be entered in the order header, whereupon its master data is copied into the order as a default.
During internal processing, the main work center is also used as a default for the performing work center.
In addition to the main work center, you can create a specific employee, who has been represented in the Human Resources (HR) component with their own master record, as Person responsible.
The Performing Work Center
In addition to the main work center, you can create a specific employee, who has been represented in the Human Resources (HR) component with their own master record, as Person responsible. You can also assign other employees to an operation in the Requirement assignment.
The performing work center is managed in the operation data for the order. It is proposed as a performing work center for the operations in the order. Since capacities are assigned to the performing work center and costs assigned using the activity type, the performing work center is required primarily for capacity planning, scheduling and cost determination.
It is also possible to create operations without entering a performing work center. A control key, which is not linked to a cost center or an activity type, must then be assigned to these operations. It may be that the operations are simply used for documentation purposes, for example, operations that only contain safety instructions or specifications for the production/resources tools to be used. Operations without a specified performing work center are also used in external processing.

  • Difference Between D1 PAL and DV PAL field order

    Hey guys,
    so one of the engineers at work stumped me and i wanted to get your thoughts on this.
    Full D1 in NTSC is 720x486 with a PAR of 0.9 (approximate) with a dominant bottom field order.
    DV NTSC is 720x480 with a PAR of approximately 1.111~ with a dominant top filed order.
    obviously, the DV codec is cutting off 3 odd lines of resolution at the top and bottom, therefore the field reversal and resizing the image (where i get the PAR of 1.111~).
    so this is my question:
    Full D1 PAL is 720x576 with a PAR of 0.9375 and a dominant bottom field order.
    why is DV PAL also 720x576 with a PAR of 1.0666 ~ and a dominant top field order?
    thanks for any help, since i know this is not really an editing question

    Dear Hemamashewararao,
    Welcome to SDN !
    As per rules you need to raise only one query as per one thread
    Coming to your first query
    As per business requirement formula will be defined
    The most important difference between Capacity formula and scheduling formula
    In SPRO

  • Wat is the exact differences between clustered table and pooled table

    hi,
       can you tell me ravi...wat is the exact differences between clustered table and pooled table
    with regards//
    anilreddyg

    Hi Anil Reddy
    Pooled Tables, Table Pools, Cluster Tables, and Table Clusters
    These types of tables are not transparent in the sense that they are not legible or manageable directly using the underlying database system tools. They are managed from within the R/3 environment from the ABAP dictionary and also at runtime when they are loaded into application memory.Pool and cluster tables are logical tables. Physically, these logical tables are arranged as records of transparent tables. The pool and cluster tables are grouped together in other tables, which are of the transparent type. The tables that group together pool tables are known as table pools, or just pools; similarly, table clusters, or just
    clusters, are the tables which group cluster tables.Not all operations that can be performed over transparent tables can be executed over pool or cluster tables.
    For instance, you can manage these tables using Open SQL calls from ABAP, but not Native SQL.These tables are meant to be buffered and loaded in memory, because they are commonly used for storing internal control information and other types of data with no external (business) relevance. SAP recommends that tables of pool or cluster type be used exclusively for control information such as
    program parameters, documentation, and so on. Transaction and application data should be stored in transparent tables.
    Table Pools
    From the point of view of the underlying DBMS as from the point of view of the ABAP dictionary, a table pool is a transparent table containing a group of pooled tables which, when created, were assigned to this table pool.
    Field Type Description
    TABNAME CHAR(10) Table name
    VARKEY CHAR(n) Maximum key length n =< 110
    DATALN INT2(5) Length of the VARDATA record returned
    VARDATA RAW(m) Maximum length of the data varies according to DBMS
    Table Clusters
    Similarly to pooled tables, cluster tables are logical tables which, when created, are assigned to a table cluster. Therefore, a table cluster, or just cluster, groups together several tables of type clusters.Several logical rows from different cluster tables are brought together in a single physical record. The records
    from the cluster tables assigned to a cluster are thus stored in a single common table in the database.A cluster contains a transparent cluster key which must be located at the start of the key of all logical cluster tables to be included in the cluster. As well, a cluster contains a long field (VARDATA), which contains the
    data of the cluster tables for this key. If the data does not fit into a field, continuation records are created.
    Field Type Description
    CLKEY1 CHAR(*) First key fields
    CLKEY2 CHAR(*) Second key field
    CLKEYN CHAR(*) nth key field
    PAGENO INT2(5) Number of the next page
    TIMESTMP CHAR(14) Time stamp
    PAGELG INT2(5) Length of the VARDATA record returned
    VARDATA RAW(*) Maximum length of the data section; varies according to database system
    Working with Tables
    The dictionary includes many functions for working with tables. There are five basic operations you can perform on tables: display, create, delete, modify, copy. Please do not confuse displaying a table with displaying the table entries (table contents). In order to display a table, it must previously exist; otherwise the system will display an error message in the status bar. For the following example, the table TABNA is used. To display this table, from the main dictionary screen, enter the table name in the Object name
    input field with the radio button selected next to Tables. Then, click on the Display button at the bottom of the screen, or press the F7 function key, or, alternatively,
    select Dictionary object Display from the menu.
    In this screen, you can see table information such as
    ¨ Table type, shown next to the name of the object. In the example, it is a transparent table.
    ¨ Short text description.
    ¨ Name of the user who made the last change, and the date of the change.
    ¨ Master language.
    ¨ Table status. On the screen, you can see this table is saved and active.
    ¨ Development class. For information on development classes, refer to Chap. 6.
    Delivery class, which sets the maintenance group for the table. It controls how tables will behave during client copy procedures, upgrades, and so forth.¨
    Tab. Maint. Allowed flag, which indicates whether you can generate a screen for maintaining table entries.
    ¨Then, on the lower part of the screen, you can see the table fields with all associated characteristics such as:
    ¨ Field name.
    ¨ Key indicator. When set, this field is the primary key, or part of it.
    ¨ Data element.
    ¨ Basic data type.
    ¨ Length.
    ¨ Check table.
    ¨ Short text, describing the field.
    Additional information about the table can be displayed by selecting the corresponding functions from the menu or directly from the application toolbar, such as keys, indexes, or technical settings
    Standard table:
    The key access to a standard table uses a sequential search. The time required for an access is linearly dependent on the number of entries in the internal table.
    You should usually access a standard table with index operations.
    Sorted table:
    The table is always stored internally sorted by its key. Key access to a sorted table can therefore use a binary search. If the key is not unique, the entry with the lowest index is accessed. The time required for an access is logarithmically dependent on the number of entries in the internal table.
    Index accesses to sorted tables are also allowed. You should usually access a sorted table using its key.
    Hash table:
    The table is internally managed with a hash procedure. All the entries must have a unique key. The time required for a key access is constant, that is it does not depend on the number of entries in the internal table.
    You cannot access a hash table with an index. Accesses must use generic key operations (SORT, LOOP, etc.).
    Index table:
    The table can be a standard table or a sorted table.
    Index access is allowed to such an index table. Index tables can be used to define the type of generic parameters of a FORM (subroutine) or a function module.
    Just have a look at these links:

  • Difference between Field symbols and field group

    Hi experts,
    Can you please advice me what is the difference between field symbols and field groups.
    Thanks in advance,
    Logu.

    Field symbols: are placeholders or symbolic names for other fields. They do not physically reserve space for a field, but point to its contents. A field symbol cam point to any data object. The data object to which a field symbol points is assigned to it after it has been declared in the program.
    Whenever you address a field symbol in a program, you are addressing the field that is assigned to the field symbol. After successful assignment, there is no difference in ABAP whether you reference the field symbol or the field itself. You must assign a field to each field symbol before you can address the latter in programs.
    Field Groups:
    A field group is a user-defined grouping of characteristics and basic key figures from the EC-EIS or EC-BP field catalog.
    Use
    The field catalog contains the fields that are used in the aspects. As the number of fields grows, the field catalog becomes very large and unclear. To simplify maintenance of the aspects, you can group fields in a field group. You can group the fields as you wish, for example, by subject area or responsibility area. A field may be included in several field groups.
    When maintaining the data structure of an aspect, you can select the field group that contains the relevant characteristics and basic key figures. This way you limit the number of fields offered.
    A field group combines several existing fields together under one name
    like
    FIELD-GROUPS: fg.
    then you can use one insert statement to insert values in fields of field-group.
    INSERT f1 f2 ... INTO fg.
    Field symbols
    If u have experience with 'C', then understand this to be similar to a pointer.
    It is used to reference another variable dynamically. So this field symbol will simply point to some other variable. and this pointer can be changed at runtime.
    FIELD-SYMBOLS <FS>.
    DATA FIELD VALUE 'X'.
    ASSIGN FIELD TO <FS>.
    WRITE <FS>.

  • Difference between class report and interactive report

    please give me the differences between  classical report and interactive report

    Hi,read the following :
    In ABAP, there are a total of 7 types of reports. They are:
    Classical Reports
    Interactive Reports
    Logical Database Reports
    ABAP query
    ALV Reports (ALV stands for ABAP List Viewer)
    Report Writer/Report Painter
    Views (There are different types of views also)
    Classical Reports
    These are the most simple reports. It is just an output of data using the Write statement inside a loop.
    Classical reports are normal reports. These reports are not having any sub reports. IT IS HAVING ONLY ONE SCREEN/LIST FOR OUTPUT
    Interactive Reports
    As the name suggests, the user can Interact with the report. We can have a drill down into the report data. For example, Column one of the report displays the material numbers, and the user feels that he needs some more specific data about the vendor for that material, he can HIDE that data under those material numbers.
    And when the user clicks the material number, another report (actually sub report/secondary list) which displays the vendor details will be displayed.
    We can have a basic list (number starts from 0) and 20 secondary lists (1 to 21).
    Logical Database Reports
    Logical database is another tool for ABAP reports. Using LDB we can provide extra features for ABAP reports.
    While using LDB there is no need for us to declare Parameters.
    Selection-screen as they will be generated automatically.
    We have to use the statement NODES in ABAP report.
    ABAP Query Reports
    ABAP query is another tool for ABAP. It provides efficency for ABAP reports. These reports are very accurate.
    Transaction Code : SQ01
    Report Writer / Report painter
    Super users and end users can use Report Painter/Report Writer tools to write their own reports.
    Giving them the ability to report on additional fields at their discretion shifts the report maintenance burden to them, saving SAP support groups time and effort normally spent creating and maintaining the reports.
    ALV reports
    Sap provides a set of ALV (ABAP LIST VIEWER) function modules which can be put into use to embellish the output of a report. This set of ALV functions is used to enhance the readability and functionality of any report output. Cases arise in sap when the output of a report contains columns extending more than 255 characters in length.
    In such cases, this set of ALV functions can help choose selected columns and arrange the different columns from a report output and also save different variants for report display. This is a very efficient tool for dynamically sorting and arranging the columns from a report output.
    The report output can contain up to 90 columns in the display with the wide array of display options.
    There is no difference between drill down and interactive report, they are the same.
    With drilldown reporting, SAP provides you with an interactive information system to let you evaluate the data collected in your application. This information system is capable of analyzing all the data according to any of the characteristics that describe the data. You can also use any key figures you wish to categorize your data. You can display a number of objects for a given key figure, or a number of key figures for a given object. In addition, the system lets you carry out any number of variance analyses (such as plan/actual comparisons, fiscal year comparisons, comparisons of different objects, and so on).
    *More on Classical Vs Interactive*
    Classical Reports
    These are the most simple reports. Programmers learn this one first. It is just an output of data using the Write statement inside a loop.
    Classical reports are normal reports. These reports are not having any sub reports. IT IS HAVING ONLY ONE SCREEN/LIST FOR OUTPUT.
    Events In Classical Reports.
    INTIALIZATION: This event triggers before selection screen display.
    AT-SELECTION-SCREEN: This event triggers after proccesing user input still selection screen is in active mode.
    START OF SELECTION: Start of selection screen triggers after proceesing selection screen.
    END-OF-SELECTION : It is for Logical Database Reporting.
    Interactive Reports
    As the name suggests, the user can Interact with the report. We can have a drill down into the report data. For example, Column one of the report displays the material numbers, and the user feels that he needs some more specific data about the vendor for that material, he can HIDE that data under those material numbers.
    And when the user clicks the material number, another report (actually sub report/secondary list) which displays the vendor details will be displayed.
    We can have a basic list (number starts from 0) and 20 secondary lists (1 to 21).
    Events associated with Interactive Reports are:
    1. AT LINE-SELECTION
    2. AT USER-COMMAND
    3. AT PF<key>
    4. TOP-OF-PAGE DURING LINE-SELECTION.
    HIDE statement holds the data to be displayed in the secondary list.
    sy-lisel : contains data of the selected line.
    sy-lsind : contains the level of report (from 0 to 21)
    Interactive Report Events:
    AT LINE-SELECTION : This Event triggers when we double click a line on the list, when the event is triggered a new sublist is going to be generated. Under this event what ever the statements that are been return will be displayed on newly generated sublist.
    AT PFn: For predefined function keys...
    AT USER-COMMAND : It provides user functions keys.
    TOP-OF-PAGE DURING LINE-SELECTION :top of page event for secondary list.

  • Difference between Conversion progs and INTERFACES

    Hi  plz     tell me  ...
    whats  the difference between    Conversion progs and Interfaces in ABAP .
    wat are  conversion progs  ( exmple) and interfaces  ( exmple ) ?
    thnks in advance....

    Hi
    CONVERSION programs are the ones which have one time usage, usually when a legacy system is being replaced by a system like SAP, then the data has to be mapped from the legacy system to SAP system. Here the data to be converted is given on a flat file & is uploaded to SAP tables mostly using LSMW only. Conversions programs are BDC,BAPI and LSMW programs in which you upload all the related tables from the flat files.Those are one time programs.
    Interface programs are those programs in which you fetch the data from the application server and process on theose data.These are helpful when you have to run any program in the backgroup when the presentation server is not working.
    INTERFACE programs are the ones which are run at regular intervals, say weekly, monthly or even daily. Here the legacy system continues to co-exist along with SAP system, the legacy system might be useful for certain functionalities but the data might have to run thru SAP transactions for complex data maintenance at regular intervals.
    In Simple
    CONVERSIONS : Converting Legacy System DATA into a flat file
    INTERFACES : Converting Flat File into SAP
    Conversion Program

  • Difference between Session Facade and Business Delegate design patterns

    Can someone tell me the differences between Session Facade and Business Delegate design patterns

    1. Session Facade decouples client code from Entity beans introducing session bean as a middle layer while Business Delegate decouples client code from EJB layer ( Session beans).
    2. SF reduces network overhead while BD reduces maintenance overhead.
    3. In SF any change in Session bean would make client code change.
    While in DB client is totally separate from Session bean because BD layer insulate client from Session beans(EJB layer).
    3. In only SF scenario, Client coder has to know about EJB programming but BD pattern no EJB specialization needed.
    4.SF emphasizes on separation of Verb, Noun scenario while BD emphasizes on separation of client(presentable) and EJB layer.
    Anybody pls suggest more differences ?

  • 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).

  • EXACT DIFFERENCE BETWEEN  FULL LOAD AND REPAIRFULL LOAD?

    HI Champ,
    Can anyone explain me the exact difference between  full load and Repairfull load?Give e some senario where we can go for this?Please.....
    10zin

    Hi,
    Full repair can be said as a Full with selections. But the main use or advantage of Full repair load is that it wont affect delta loads in the system. If you load a full to a target with deltas running you again will have to initialize them for deltas to continue. But if you do full repair it wont affect deltas.
    This is normally done we when we lose some data or there is data mismatch between source system and BW.
    Check the OSS Note 739863 'Repairing data in BW' for all the details
    Symptom
    Some data is incorrect or missing in the PSA table or in the ODS object (Enterprise Data Warehouse layer).
    There may be a number of reasons for this problem: Errors in the relevant application, errors in the user exit, errors in the DeltaQueue, handling errors in the customers posting procedure (for example, a change in the extract structure during production operation if the DeltaQueue was not yet empty; postings before the Delta Init was completed, and so on), extractor errors, unplanned system terminations in BW and in R/3, and so on.
    Solution
    Read this note in full BEFORE you start actions that may repair your data in BW. Contact SAP Support for help with troubleshooting before you start to repair data.
    BW offers you the option of a full upload in the form of a repair request (as of BW 3.0B). If you want to use this function, we recommend that you use the ODS object layer.
    Note that you should only use this procedure if you have a small number of incorrect or missing records. Otherwise, we always recommend a reinitialization (possibly after a previous selective deletion, followed by a restriction of the Delta-Init selection to exclude areas that were not changed in the meantime).
    1. Repair request: Definition
    If you flag a request as a repair request with full update as the update mode, it can be updated to all data targets, even if these already contain data from delta initialization runs for this DataSource/source system combination. This means that a repair request can be updated into all ODS objects at any time without a check being performed. The system supports loading by repair request into an ODS object without a check being performed for overlapping data or for the sequence of the requests. This action may therefore result in duplicate data and must thus be prepared very carefully.
    The repair request (of the "Full Upload" type) can be loaded into the same ODS object in which the 'normal' delta requests run. You will find this request under the "Repair Request" option in the InfoPackage (Maintenance) menu.
    2. Prerequisites for using the "Repair Request" function
    2.1. Troubleshooting
    Before you start the repair action, you should carry out a thorough analysis of the possible cause of the error to make sure that the error cannot recur when you execute the repair action. For example, if a key figure has already been updated incorrectly in the OLTP system, it will not change after a reload into BW. Use transaction RSA3 (Extractor Checker) in the source system for help with troubleshooting. Another possible source of the problem may be your user exit. To ensure that the user exit is correct, first load a user exit with a Probe-Full request into the PSA table and check whether the data is correct. If it is not correct: Search for the error in the exit user. If you do not find it, we recommend that you deactivate the user exit for testing purposes and request a new Full Upload. It If the data arrives correctly, it is highly probable that the error is indeed in the user exit.
    We always recommend that you load the data into the PSA table in the first step and check the result there.
    2.2. Analyze the effects on the downstream targets
    Before you start the Repair request into the ODS object, make sure that the incorrect data records are selectively deleted from the ODS object. However, before you decide on selective deletion, you should read the Info Help for the "Selective Deletion" function, which you can access by pressing the extra button on the relevant dialog box. The activation queue and the ChangeLog remain unchanged during the selective deletion of the data from the ODS object, which means that the incorrect data is still in the change log afterwards. After the selective deletion, you therefore must not reconstruct the ODS object if it is reconstructed from the ChangeLog. (Reconstruction is usually from the PSA table but, if the data source is the ODS object itself, the ODS object is reconstructed from its ChangeLog). You MUST read the recommendations and warnings about this (press the "Info" button).
    You MUST also take into account the fact that the delta for the downstream data targets is created from the changelog. If you perform selective deletion and then reload data into the deleted area, this may result in data inconsistencies in the downstream data targets.
    If you only use MOVE and do not use ADD for updates in the ODS object, selective deletion may not be required in some cases (for example, if incorrect records only have to be changed, rather than deleted). In this case, the DataMart delta also remains intact.
    2.3. Analysis of the selections
    You must be very precise when you perform selective deletion: Some applications do not provide the option of selecting individual documents for the load process. Therefore, you must first ensure that you can load the same range of documents into BW as you would delete from the ODS object. This note provides some application-specific recommendations to help you "repair" the incorrect data records.
    If you updated the data from the ODS object into the InfoCube, you can also delete it there using the "Selective deletion" function. However, if it is compressed at document level there and deletion is no longer possible, you must delete the InfoCube content and fill the data in the ODS object again after repair.
    You can only perform this action after a thorough analysis of all effects of selective data deletion. We naturally recommend that you test this first in the test system.
    The procedure generally applies for all SAP applications/extractors. The application determines the selections. For example, if you cannot use the document number for selection but you can select documents for an entire period, then you are forced to delete and then update documents for the entire period in the data target. Therefore, it is important to look first at the selections in the InfoPackage exactly before you delete data from the data target.
    Some applications have additional special features:
    Logistics cockpit: As preparation for the repair request, delete the SetUp table (if you have not already done so) and fill it selectively with concrete document numbers (or other possible groups of documents determined by the selection). Execute the Repair request.
    Caution: You can currently use the transactions that fill SetUp tables with reconstruction data to select individual documents or entire ranges of documents (at present, it is not possible to select several individual documents if they are not numbered in sequence).
    FI: The Repair request for the Full Upload is not required here. The following efficient alternatives are provided: In the FI area, you can select documents that must be reloaded into BW again, make a small change to them (for example, insert a period into the assignment text) and save them -> as a result, the document is placed in the delta queue again and the previously loaded document under the same number in the BW ODS object is overwritten. FI also has an option for sending the documents selectively from the OLTP system to the BW system using correction programs (see note 616331).
    3. Repair request execution
    How do you proceed if you want to load a repair request into the data target? Go to the maintenance screen of the InfoPackage (Scheduler), set the type of data upload to "Full", and select the "Scheduler" option in the menu -> Full Request Repair -> Flag request as repair request -> Confirm. Update the data into the PSA and then check that it is correct. If the data is correct, continue to update into the data targets."

  • Difference between Simple maintanence and Export mode and Organisation plan

    Hi all,
    Can any one please explain the difference between Simple maintanence and Export mode and organisational plan in SAP easy access.
    Thanks & Regards,
    Naga

    Expert Mode Infotype Maintenance: This interfaces allows you to edit individually selected objects in OM (Org Units, Positions, Jobs) via infotypes. 
    Expert Mode: Simple Maintenance Interface (PPOM_OLD) is used to quickly create a new Organizational Plan. As a user, you can pretty much maintain large volumes of data very easily ( i.e create several objects simultaneously), without having to go through the more "Performance Intensive" Org and Staffing interface.
    In accessing the Simple Maintenance interface to create your org structure, the initial screen requires you to specify which evaluation path you want to create your org structure.
    Organizational Plan: This is what provides you with a complete picture of an enterprise's environment. It comprises elements (objects like Org Units, Positions, Jobs etc) which are used as building blocks for creating an Organizational structure.
    Need more information? Let me know.

  • Difference between sap query and sap ad hoc query

    Hello Experts-
    Is there any difference between sap query and sap ad hoc query. If yes, I will appreciate if you can provide some input.
    Thanks,

    Hi,
    SAP Query
    Purpose
    The SAP Query application is used to create reports not already contained in the default. It has been designed for users with little or no knowledge of the SAP programming language ABAP.
    SAP Query offers users a broad range of ways to define reports and create different types of reports such as basic lists, statistics, and ranked lists.
    Features
    The SAP Query comprises five components: Queries, InfoSet Query, InfoSets, User Groups and Translation/Query.
    Classic reporting- the creation of lists, statistics and ranked lists- are covered by the InfoSet Query and Queries components. Other components’ range of functions cover the maintenance of InfoSets, the administration of user groups and also the translation of texts created in the SAP Query.
    All data required by a user for a report can be read from various tables.
    To define a report, you first have to enter individual texts, such as titles, and select the fields and options which determine the report layout. In the WYSIWYG mode, you can edit the lists using Drag & Drop and various toolbars.
    AD Hoc Query
    Definition
    A Web item that enables you to create and change queries in a Web application on an ad-hoc basis.
    Use
    You can use the  Ad-hoc Query Designer Web item in the Web Application Designer to structure Web applications in which you create or change queries. The Web item is as a tool for designing ad-hoc queries in a Web environment.
    In particular it enables you to:
    ·        Create queries by assigning characteristics from an InfoProvider to rows, columns, filters, and free characteristics, and including key figures from the InfoProvider in the key figure structure of the query.
    ·        Restrict or filter key figures and characteristics
    ·        Use predefined key figure structures and restricted or calculated key figures in the query
    ·        Set or change query properties and key figure/characteristic properties in the query
    ·        Create or change conditions and exceptions
    When compared with the BEx Query Designer, the Ad-hoc Query Designer Web item has the following restrictions when creating or changing queries:
    ·        You cannot integrate variables into the query directly.
    However, you can use variables in reusable structures, or restricted or calculate key figures, which are used in the Ad-hoc Query Designer
    ·        The query can contain only one structure. This structure has to be the key figure structure and be in the rows or columns of the query.
    -        You cannot use key figures or key figure structures in the filter.
    -        You cannot define exception cells, since this requires two structures.
    You cannot create the following objects using the Ad-hoc Query Designer Web item:
    -         Reusable structures
    -         Reusable restricted key figures
    -         Reusable calculated key figures
    -        Local calculated key figures
    You can create local, restricted key figures using the Ad-hoc Query Designer Web item.
    You can edit existing queries in the Ad-hoc Query Designer Web item, if the queries adhere to the restrictions laid out above The Ad-hoc Query Designer checks these requirements when loading a query. If the query is too complex, the query can be loaded into the Ad-hoc Query Designer but you cannot change it there. You then receive the appropriate message. You can still check and execute the query.
    "Ad Hoc" is a Latin phrase which means "for this purpose" and in today's parlance generally means "on the fly," or "spontaneously."
    An ad hoc query is a query that is run at the spur of the moment, and generally is never saved to run again. These queries are run using a SQL statement created by a tool or an administrator. So therefore, such a query is one that might suit a situation which is only there for the moment and later on will become irrelevant.
    As queries become more complex, it can be difficult to write them correctly ad-hoc. To help with this, one can instead write the knowledge needed for queries as business rules in English, and then use a system called "Internet Business Logic" to automatically generate and run the SQL queries. One can then get explanations of the results, in English, at the business level.

  • Difference between define plant and copy plant

    Hi MM experts,
    please explain me what is the difference between define plant and copy plant.
    what are the consequences in future.

    Hi Babu,
    Copy Means
    This function is for creating a new plant using the settings for an existing plant as your template.
    In copying of plant system copy all the objects into the new plantso you can work on them and chnge wherever you require. While in creating a new plant you have to define everything from scratch.
    SAP always recommends to copy the plant from standard template of 0001 or 1000 so that it considerably reducing the time required for maintenance.
    Hope this will help you.

    Greate example. but i would like add one more point..
    a user is a schema and schema is a user. but when this applies to the user that he become a schema, only if he has got some objects. so we can say while creating the user which dosent contain any objects called simple user account but afterwords when he has got an objects then we can say its a schema as the above user has shown you through the exampleIt is just word-play. There is nothing in like a 'status' indicator to say "USER_A is just a user but USER_B has become a schema". Many people use the terms "user" and "schema" interchangeably, and some very good DBAs will insist this is correct. I don't disagree with them even though I usually try to make the distinction.
    In a typical application, all of the objects (tables, procedures, etc) that implement the app will be owned by a "application schema owner" - a user which exists for the sole purpose of owning the schema. Said user will have no privileges at all .. especially not CREATE SESSION. Except for possible maintenance activity no one ever actually connects as this user. User accounts are then given to actual humans who connect with their own accounts. The accounts have the necessary system and object privileges granted to them - via a role. One could also create a special account (let's call it APP_ADMIN) that is used for maintenance and batch operations within the application.
