Difference between MRP group and plant parameters

hai friends,
please let me know, what is the main difference between the MRP group and plant parameters?,
what are the extra activities or features with one, when compare to the other?.
Edited by: Mourya.v on Sep 22, 2010 6:36 AM

Dear Mourya,
Why to assign MRP group? - If planning for each plant is not specific enough for your purposes and you would like to assign
control parameters that differ from the control parameters defined for the plant to certain material groups.
1.For all materials without an MRP group, the system uses the plant parameters that is the settings present in OPPQ, or the
entries in the initial screen of the planning run.
2.For all materials with an MRP group, the system uses the parameters recorded in the MRP group that is the settings in OPPR.
3.The MRP group is an organizational object that can be used to allocate special control parameters for planning to a group of
materials. You can maintain MRP groups if planning control per plant is not precise enough for your requirements and you want
to allocate certain material groups different control parameters from the plant parameters. For this purpose, MRP groups are
defined with these specific control parameters and are assigned to the material in the material master record (MRP 1 screen).
4.The MRP group, groups material from the material requirements planning point of view to allocate them control parameters for
planning.The control parameters include the strategy group, the planning horizon and the creation indicator for the planning run.

What is difference between bus.Area and plant

dear experts,
what is difference between bus.Area and plant?
thanks
Rajakarthik.

Hi
Plant and Business Area are not the same.
Business Areas are configured in FI module as per the Product lines or geographical operations basis.
Where as The plants created in the logistics (General) module are assigned to the company code. That means all transactions taking place in the plants are posted to the attached company code in SAP FI.
You can post a business area to several company codes and use it for cross-company-code reporting.
The R/3 System uses a combination of plant and division to assign the relevant business area. When you use the R/3 System to automatically draw up accounts for business areas, you can assign only one business area to a combination of plant and division. Plants and divisions can be assigned and combined in several different ways.

Difference between AP groups and HREAP or flexconnect

Hi Experts ,
Can anyone please tell me the difference between AP groups and HREAP functionality?
Is the AP group for within one office location ? and Hreap is over WAN?
Regards,
Vijay.

AP groups and H-REAP/FlexConnect are used differently. AP Groups define what SSID's and WLAN to VLAN mapping (local mode) that ap's in the group will have. H-REAP/FlexConnect group is only used when the ap's are in this mode and you define ap's that are close together in that group for fast roaming if using 802.1x. If your only using pre-shared key or non-802.1x, then you really don't need to use H-REAP/FlexConnect groups. You can have ap's in both ap groups or h-reap/flexconnect groups, that is why you need to understand what each does.
FlexConnect Grups:

Difference between bridge-group and VLAN

Hi all,
I don't understand very well the difference between bridge-group and VLAN...
Could someone explain me or give me a site which could help me?
Thx U by advance!

Khay
bridge-group is used on a router to enable bridging on an interface. In terms of functionality a bridge-group is very similar to a VLAN. For example if you create bridge-group 1 and assign it to interfaces FastEthernet 1/0 and 2/0 and you create bridge-group 2 and assign it to interfaces FastEthernt 1/1 and 2/1 it is like creating 2 VLANs. Devices in bridge-group 1 (interfaces 1/0 and 2/0) can communicate with each other but not with devices in bridge-group 2 (intefaces 1/1 and 2/1).

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 "account group" and "reconciliation account"

Hello,
I am new to SAP and I would like to understand the difference between the "account group" and the "reconciliation account" that appear both in the vendor master records.
From what I read, "account group" is just a classification but has no "accounting" impact whereas "reconciliation account" (goods suppliers, overhead expenses suppliers...) do have an accounting impact.
However I am not sure so I would like a confirmation on that and if possible examples so I could really understand.
Thank you.

Hi,
The account group is a way to divide vendors into groups for reporting later on.
The account group is also the link to the number range and the field selection functionality.
Please refer the below link for more clarity.

Account group
The reconciliation account is the account is the account which is posted to at invoice receipt stage where the vendor account represents the sub ledger and the reconcilation account the ledger.

Difference between material group and external material group

Hi,
Can anybody let me know the difference between the material group and external materila group from the business perspective.
Thanks

Hi Raghunandan,
Material Group : Materials having similar attributes will be goruped together and assigned to a Material Group.
Material groups are Extensively useful during :
Limit the Scope of Analysis
Reporting Purpose
External material group : Key that you can use to assign the material to an external material group or to a material group determined according to external systematics.
In General, External material groups are nothing but external representation of group of material which are extensively used in supply souce determination for provions materials related to retail and some other functions
In short if your Internal material group for example bearing is 0001 you can group externally further based on manufacturer like FAG for NRB. No accounting activity is based on it

CSM: Sticky timeout parameter: difference between sticky group and vserver

Hi,
Concerning the example in the CSM manual about configuration of stickiness:
What (or why) is exactly the difference between the timeout parameter (100 minutes):
sticky 12 cookie foo timeout 100 AND the sticky 50 group 12 in the vserver.
The timeout parameter is overruled in the vserver configuration. (100 -> 50)
For what could this be usefull?
Thank you!
Kind regards,
Wim
This example shows how to configure a virtual server named barnett, associate it with the server farm
named bosco, and configure a sticky connection with a duration of 50 minutes to sticky group 12:
Router(config)# mod csm 2
Router(config-module-csm)# sticky 12 cookie foo timeout 100
Router(config-module-csm)# exit
Router(config-module-csm)#
Router(config-module-csm)# serverfarm bosco
Router(config-slb-sfarm)# real 10.1.0.105
Router(config-slb-real)# inservice
Router(config-slb-real)# exit
Router(config-slb-sfarm)#
Router(config-slb-sfarm)# vserver barnett
Router(config-slb-vserver)# virtual 10.1.0.85 tcp 80
Router(config-slb-vserver)# serverfarm bosco
Router(config-slb-vserver)# sticky 50 group 12
Router(config-slb-vserver)# inservice
Router(config-slb-vserver)# exit
Router(config-module-csm)# end

if you configure the group under a policy, there is no option for the timeout.
This is why the option exist under the stick-group.
In the vserver, you can overrid this timeout - so the timeout is per vserver.
If you want the same timeout, just configure the same value.
gdufour-cat6k-2(config-module-csm)#policy test1
gdufour-cat6k-2(config-slb-policy)#sticky-group ?
<1-255> sticky group ID
gdufour-cat6k-2(config-slb-policy)#sticky-group 12 ?

What is the difference between function groups and Object Orientation

Hello all
I have read about this on the help.sap.com site, I still do not understand it completely, can some one explain me with a simple example please ? (Not the increment counter example please !).
Thanks a ton.
Rgds
Sameer

Hello Sameer
When you call a module of a function group for the first time in your program then the entire function group is loaded. However, this can happen only once within your report and all global variables within the function group will have the same values all the time (except they are manipulated via fm's).
In contrast, you can create as many instances of the same class as you want and all of them can have different global attributes. And all these instances are independent of each other.
On the other hand, if fm_A changes global attributes of the function group and fm_B reads these attributes then fm_B read the changed values.
Or in other words:
Function Group = can be instantiated only ONCE
Class = can be instantiated unlimited

Uwe

Accounting the differences between the group and statutory record

Hi guys,
In our set up, the group reporting requires the book to be closed within 10 days from the year end. However, due to various tax reasons, the stutory books can be kept open till 25th.
For example, there could be a credit note to be accounted between 10th and 25th which should appear in the statutory books as part of current year. But in Group reporting it should consider as the transaction for next year.
We have considered 2 options:
a) Do an adjustment transaction using Gl accounts with differnet range and exclude these accounts from group reporting. next year, reverse these transaction and account using normal GL accounts.
b) Account the adjustment transactions in a special period. In Group reporting, exclude these spacial transactions. However, the group reporting should include the special period from the previous year.
c) Use special purpose ledger. Account the transactions in special period and consider changing the period in the mapping rule (yet to prove).
Can anbody think about any other options?
many thanks

Commitment limit is not related to order value.

A warning message appears if <the customer's account balance>+ <the total amount in undeposited checks> + <the amount of the current document> exceeds the customer's commitment limit.
