Difference Between Order Change Management & Engineering change Management

Dear,
What is the Difference Between Order Change Management & Engineering change Management ?

Hi,
ECM will help for Master data changes management.
OCM will help to manage changes in Transaction Data like Production Orders.
In brief,you have to first Create Change Number(part of ECM activity).then using that Change number, Master data(like BOM, Routing etc) has to be modified.
Then through OCM affected Transaction Data(like Production Orders) for each change number to be Processed.

Difference between nio-file-manager and nio-memory-manager

Hi,
what's the difference between nio-file-manager and nio-memory-manager? The documentation doesn't really discuss the differences as far as I know. They both use nio to store memory-mapped files don't they? What are the advantages/disadvantages of both?
When to choose the first one and when the second when storing a large amount of data? Can both be used to query data with the Filter API? Are there size limits on both?
Best regards
Jan

Hi Jan,
The difference is that one uses a memory mapped file and one uses direct nio memory (as part of the memory allocated by the JVM process) to store the data. Both allow storing cache data off heap making it possible to store more data with a single cache node (JVM) without long GC pauses.
If you are using a 32 bit JVM, the JVM process will be limited to a total of ~3GB on Windows and 4GB on Linux/Solaris. This includes heap and off heap memory allocation.
Regarding the size limitations for the nio-file manager Please see the following doc for more information.
With the release of 3.5 there is now the idea of a Partitioned backing map which helps create larger (up to 8GB of capacity) for nio storage. Please refer to the following doc.
Both can be used to query data but it should be noted that the indexes will be stored in heap.

Difference between on change of and at end of :

Hi Can any one explain me what is the exact difference between on change of and at end of .
I know the basic differences.
But i would like to know in which case we can use the above two statemetns.
Suppose :
Matnr   plant       sloc       movementype      date                          qty
12       001          002           261                12/11/08                    10
12      001          002            261               12/11/08                      11
12      002          003            261               12/11/08                      12
Here i need to add the quantity based up on the material,
If the materials is maintained in different plants then it should give the total for for that particular plant.
Please help me how to build logic to this :
Regards,
Vinay.

ok sure i will give it to u.

Here i need to write the logic for that material usage :
This material usage will be caliculated based upon the movement types in that particular month :
The formula is :
AT END OF BUDAT.
     FINAL_VALUE_WA-KWMENG12 =   ( W_QTY261 -   W_QTY262 ) + ( W_QTY201 - W_QTY202 ) + ( W_QTY551 - W_QTY552 ).
      CLEAR : W_QTY261,W_QTY262,W_QTY201,W_QTY202,W_QTY551,W_QTY552.
    ENDAT.
Here iam writting the logic as at end of the month iam caliculating.
But what my question is if we have same material in different plant and the usage is in the same month
then i think this query is going to fail.

Difference between "Order to Delivery" and "Order to Cash"

Hi,
This could be a basic question. But, can any one tell me the difference between 'Order to Delivery" and "Order to Cash" Process.
Thanks
Anitha

hi
Order to cash cycle in SD starts with Inquiry -> Quotation -> Order -> Delivery ->Picking-->Post Goods Issue -> Invoice -> Accounting Document generation
For Inquiry
Doc. Type: IN
T.Code: VA11(create), VA12(change), VA13(display)
Process: Quotation
Doc. Type: QT
T.Code: VA21(create), VA22(change), VA23(display)
Process: Order
T.Code: VA01(create), VA02(change), VA03(display)
Doc. Type: OR
For Delivery
Doc. Type: LF
T.Code: VL01N(create), VL02N(change), VL03(display)
For Billing
Doc. Type: F2
T.Code: VF01(cre ate), VF02(change), VF03(display)
For Accounting Document
T.Code: FB03(display)
where as ORDER TO DELIVERY
Delivery Order is the term of core team normally used for Delivery. Ideally insome of the legacy, they do not create Sales Order & use the term Delivery Order for Delivery.
InSAP, we mornally map it as Sales order --> Delivery --> Post Goods issue --> Billing.
At times we have to give meaning to the term sprecified by core team / end user & arrive at SAP terminology.

CTM: Difference between Order creation Frame & Maximum earliness

Hi Experts,
Could any one please explain me the difference between Order Creation Frame & Maximum Earliness in CTM Gloabl Customizing and their implact on the planning run
Thanks,
Naveen

Hi,
Order creation frame is a variable planning parameter and has to be set in CTM profile.Using this planning parameter one can define a range within a certain demand has to be fulfilled.In other words a time frame can be set within a supply has to be planned to fulfill a certain demand.
Maximum Earliness is maintained for Planned Orders which is the time period (in days) before the demand date, within which SAP APO can create planned orders early.
Thanks,

Difference between IntegrationServer and Integration Engine

Hi,
Could you please provide me difference between IntegrationServer and Integration Engine.
functionality of both and what are the runtime environments exits in XI Server.
Could you please show me digaram how message flow from
XI server i.e., through which engines.. what is the input and output of each engine.
Thanks,
RamuV

Hello Ramu,
Go through this link..
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/e1/0c733cb7d61952e10000000a11405a/frameset.htm
Use
Two SAP XI 3.0 Integration Servers are used to exchange messages between the system landscapes of two business partners.
Description
An SAP XI Integration Server of a business partner is connected to the SAP XI Integration Server of another business partner. Both use SAP XI message protocol to send or receive messages.
When an SAP XI Integration Server receives a message from another Integration Server it understands the message format and so processes the message.
Example
A business partner that uses SAP XI wants to send a message to another business partner who also uses SAP XI .
·        The message is sent between the Integration Servers in SAP XI message format
·        The Integration Server of the second business partner then sends the message to the relevant business system
Integration Engine
Purpose
The Integration Engine enables you to process XML messages exchanged between applications in heterogeneous system landscapes. Both applications of SAP components and external applications can communicate with the Integration Engine.
Using adapters, the Integration Engine can also process IDocs (Intermediate Documents) and RFCs (Remote Function Calls). This option is available for applications that have already defined IDocs or RFCs, as well as for applications of SAP components that do not yet have access to the proxy generation functions.
Integration
The Integration Engine is the runtime environment of the SAP Exchange Infrastructure. The following are examples of other important parts of this infrastructure:
·        Proxy Generation
·        Integration Repository
·        Integration Directory
The integration processes involved can take place between heterogeneous system components within a company, as well as between business partners outside company boundaries.
Features
The Integration Engine, as a runtime component of SAP Exchange Infrastructure, has the task of receiving, processing, and forwarding XML messages. During message processing, collaboration agreements are evaluated, the receivers are determined, and mapping activities are executed.
The individual processing steps are called pipeline services and are defined in pipelines. It is the task of the Integration Engine to process these pipelines correctly and consistently. To guarantee this, you must configure the Integration Engine accordingly and monitor the message processing. Both event-driven message processing and prioritized message processing are possible.
Thanks,
Satya Kumar

Difference between ordered by and sorted by?

hi,
Can any1 tell me wats the actual difference between ordered by and sorted by???

Generally speaking, when talking math, one talks about an "ordering" in some set of values. Usually one doesn't actually place them in order; the order is already there, implicit in the values. When talking computer science, one talks about "sorting" because the values may be in a sequence which violates the desired order, and you have to sort the sequence to match the order. "Sorting" isn't as relevant in math because there is no sense of the items being out of sequence when the order is established.
So "order" describes the ideal (which mathematicians care about).
"Sort" describes the practical, the activity needed to make the real match the ideal (which computer sciences care about).
That's my intuitive feeling on it, anyway.

Difference between a Solution Manager project, and IMG project.

Hello,
We are in process of installing and thereby configuring scenarios for Solman 4.
While reading about it on help.sap.com, I came across following:
<b>
"<i>The Change Tracking function of Change Request Management allows you to track everything that relates to changes within the context of a Solution Manager project, or an IMG project."</i></b>
Please help me here by clarifying difference between two.
regards, Shantanu

Hi Shantanu,
Let us assume you have captured everything w.r.to an SAP Implementation project in Solution Manager and this project has gone live. Here all details relating to an SAP Project are captured in a Solution Manager Project. Solution Manager project acts as a container to hold all the details relating to the SAP Project.
Now when this SAP Project comes in the support/maintenance phase, whenever a small change needs to be done to this SAP Solution, it will be raised as a Change Request. This change request will be captured in Solution Manager (starting from the point when the request was raised from an end user as a support message, which eventually might have evolved as a Change Request). All details about this change request, its approval workflow, task control being transferred to different roles(people), movement of the request along the transport path, everything is captured and controlled in the Solution Manager Project.
So, we are clear about Solution Manager Project now.
What is an IMG Project?
For each and every component involved in this SAP project, an IMG project will be created with the same name as the Solution Manager Project in the component systems. These IMG projects in the Satellite systems are the same as the normal Project IMGs which we use in any SAP Project to hold all details relating to an SAP Project w.r.to that component.
In the context specified by you, it has been told that any changes w.r.to a Solution Manager project or an IMG project can be tracked in CHARM. It is because any change that is requested w.r.to any component(say SRM or ECC) will result in a change in the details captured in Solution Manager project about that SAP Project, and also will result in a change in the details captured in the appropriate Project IMG (say SRM or ECC).
Hope it is clear.
Dont forget to reward points for useful answers.
best regds,
Alagammai.

Difference between a Change-run and Activate master data

Hi experts,
Could you tell me what is the difference between making a change-run on a masterdata (rsa1 --> Tools --> Apply Hierarchy/Attribute Change...), and making a right-click on this masterdata and click on "Activate master data" ?
The result seems to be the same, all rows in version M (Revised) are changed in version A (Active)...
Thanks for your help.
Tempka.

Hi
Change run will update the master data changes in Aggregates and update the object master data as well.
Activate master data will only activate the new records and it will not update the aggregates.
check out the below thread
Attribute Change Run VS Master data activation

Difference between Delta "Change Log" and "Active Table (Without Archive)"?

In BI7.0 environment, we perform our Delta loads (the DTP settings under the Extraction tab, there is a field called Extraction Mode and it's value is selected as "Delta") every day among all our DSOs.
There is a section called "Delta Init. Extraction From..." under the same tab in DTP, there are four radio buttons:
Active Table (With Archive)
Active Table (Without Archive)
Archive (Full Extraction Only)
Change Log
Then what is the difference between "Change Log" and "Active Table (Without Archive)" if both Extraction Mode is "Delta" for two Delta loads?
Thanks!

Hi ,
The new options SP16 has are:(Chk Note 1096771)
Active Table (with Archive)
The data is read from the active table and from the archive or from a near-line storage if one exists. You can choose this option even if there is no active data archiving process yet for the DataStore object.
Active Table (Without Archive)
The data is only read from the active table. If there is data in the archive or in a near-line storage at the time of extraction, this data is not extracted.
Archive (Only Full Extraction)
The data is only read from the archive or from a near-line storage. Data is not extracted from the active table.
Change Log
The data is read from the change log of the DataStore object.
Delta will always be picked from change log table.Only during intialization you can choose between getting data from change log or active table.If you are doing the load first time and are initializzing delta in subsequent data targets, then pulling data from active table will get lesse volume of data then it would have got from change log table....All subsequent deltas will be picked up from the change log. And when we need to reload data into the data target (which would be a full load) - we use active table.
From change log : you can take below ones as targets
1) Cube 2) DSO with Addition as the update for the Keyfigures
From Active table: you can take below ones as targets
1) Cube ,if and only if, the records are never changes in the source once after creation
2) DSO with Addition as the update for the Keyfigures ,if and only if, the records are never changes in the source once after creation
3) DSO with Overwrite as the update for the Keyfigures ( incase deletions is not happening in the source system)

Difference between Analytic workspace manager and AWB

Hi could anyone tell me the difference between AWM and AWB , . I finished designing my cube using AWB and i was planing to use OBIEE to browse and view my cube for reporting etc but it turns out that OWB cubes arent diretly compatible with OBIEE workspace we have to use AWM to make it compatible or something.. So why use OWB in the first place ???

Hi Jan,
The difference is that one uses a memory mapped file and one uses direct nio memory (as part of the memory allocated by the JVM process) to store the data. Both allow storing cache data off heap making it possible to store more data with a single cache node (JVM) without long GC pauses.

Regarding the size limitations for the nio-file manager Please see the following doc for more information.
With the release of 3.5 there is now the idea of a Partitioned backing map which helps create larger (up to 8GB of capacity) for nio storage. Please refer to the following doc.
Both can be used to query data but it should be noted that the indexes will be stored in heap.

Difference between Oracle Enetrprise Manager 10.1.2. and 10.1.3

We have J2EE application deployed on Oracle Application Server 10.1.2.
For setting up and deploying application we use Enterprise manager.
We are intending to upgrade onto version 10.1.3. At the beginning we
tried new Enterprise manager. We are unpleasantly surprised how different
new version is.
For start, we need to solve two things:
1. In defined datasource we had oracle Property
NLS_SORT - Czech for making database sort the right way. If we tried to put this property
in new Enterprise manager (Under Data Source, Properties), this is called:
An error has occurred.
"No such property: NLS_SORT, existing writable properties are: [TNSEntryName, URL, connectionCacheName..."
Where to put it now ? Can it be done at all?
2. How to define java parameters ?
In old version, there were Server Properties, Command Line Options, Java Options
In new version we couldn't find any gui interface to define this. We googled, that ompn.xml
must be modified. Strange way to improve...
And finally we tried latest OAS installation available, the http:\\localhost\em address was not working at all.
Are we doing something wrong ? Thanks.

do not edit the datasources from backend. You can do that from em console. If you want to do it from backend. here is what you can try..

In Request type, what is the difference between action 'Change user' and 'Assign object'

Dear All,
I have used only 'Assign Object' for my 'Change User' request type. But the standard request type has 'Change user'. So, could you suggest , what additional purpose does Change Object serve
Regards
Plaban

HI Plaban
not sure if you answered your own question here?
Change User - by itself would allow update of address data, user parameters, defaults, etc
Assign Object - as you mentioned roles and profiles.
However, if assigning, I think you need to have both actions: change and assign
I recall (ages ago) that change was only the user details and not the role or profiles. As a result, there were a few threads where people had to update the action for the request type of provisioning would not occur.
This is something you could test

Colleen
