Difference between SAP-PS, SAP_RPM, Cprojects, SAP-ppm

Hi
can anyone please tell me the difference between
1. SAP-PS
2. SAP Resource and Portfolio Management (SAP- RPM)
3, SAP Project Portfolio Management  SAP-PPM)
4. cProjects
Thanks..

Hi Julio
1. SAP-PS --> Project Systems SAP ERP based Project Management tool. It is tightly integrated with SAP Core modules like MM,SD,FICO.
it is SAP GUI based just like other core modules. it is used in project oriented scenarios like EC&O, real estate, complex MTO scenarios.
2. SAP Resource and Portfolio Management (SAP- RPM) --> SAP Enterprise Portal based Resource and portfolio management tool, it is used to manage portfolio of multiple projects, proposals, initiatives. Its UI is SAP Enterprise portal and it is integrated with SAP cProjects/ SAP PS.
3, SAP Project Portfolio Management SAP-PPM)
Same as 2, but SAP is now using term PPM for next relelases of xRPM, SAP is coming up with SAP PPM 5.0 ,
current version in market is SAP RPM 4.5
4. cProjects - It is web based Project Management tool. It is used for simpler projects like IT Projects, R&D projects etc, which does not require very tight integration with SAP ERP core modules. cProjects is integrated to some extent with SAP PS & FI-CO
Hope i have done my best extent to give answer.
Thanks

  • What's the difference between WorkflowTask and WorkflowJob in SAP MDM API?

    Hi Support,
      Could you tell me the differences between WorkflowTask and WorkflowJob in SAP MDM API? And which can represent a workflow in Workflows tab in MDM Date Manager.
    Thanks & Regards,
    Song

    Hi Songxu,
    Workflow Task: It is the task(workflow steps like Process, Approver etc) assigned to different user during Workflow. User's  use the workflow tabs in Data Manager to view and process workflow tasks. see page 91/654 of Data Manager Guide.
    http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nwmdm71/helpdata/en/4b/72b8aaa42301bae10000000a42189b/MDMDataManager71.pdf
    Workflow Job: Each workflow is invoked as a job that can consist of multiple records that move through the steps of a workflow (how many records are involved into your Workflow) as a group while simultaneously maintaining record-level granularity. Once the job has been launched, it moves automatically from step-to-step and from user-to-user, showing up in the inbound task queue in each useru2019s Workflows tab for disposition and processing.

  • Difference between Tech-Ed and Normal SAP Certification

    Hi,
    Is there any difference between SAP TechEd certification and other Normal certification (Other than Tech-Ed, conducted by SAP) ?
    I am planning to give C_TBIT51_70, which is not in TechED
    (TBIT40,TBIT50 and TBIT51).
    Is there any experts who cleared this exam, please provide your inputs.
    Thank you.
    Shylesh

    Hi Shyl,
    The most important differences are:
    1) The evaluation criteria and pass percentage !!
    2) Certification fee
    1) In teched, you will not be given any partial credit but the pass percentage is less than that of the exams which you take in other months.
    For me the normal certfication pass percentage was 70 % for which the same in teched was 57% BUT REMEMBER NO PARTIAL CREDIT IN TECHED.
    but the normal monthly exams would be granted partial marks for each question but percentage is 70.
    2) The certification fee in teched also differs in the case. its less than that of direct certification.
    BUT MY SUGGESTION IS GO FOR TECHED SINCE YOU LL HAVE GOOD EXPOSURE ON THE TECHNLOGY YOU DO. NEVER MISS IT!!
    Hope it helps!!
    Thanks!

  • Differences between AIX and Windows for SAP

    Dear All,
    I have a problem regarding SAP Software.We want to change our company software .First we order SAP On Windows with Oracle10g But Now We want SAP on AIX with Oracle10g.
    SAP delivered us software on Windows platform.
    Please Suggest me for this as what are the differences between the above two platforms and what are the differences between the above 2 platforms.
    Regards,
    Pankaj Kalsayan

    hi Pankaj,
    well, this is a very general question. perhaps you could specify a little more.
    in general i would see no difference regarding the end user sitting in front of his pc using sapgui.
    as far as i know all server side sap software is available for aix and windows (and many more).
    for administration on the other hand there is of course lots of difference. AIX is a UNIX operating system running on special hardware with power processors. it offers quit extensive virtualisation abilities using so called LPARs and supports real big number of CPUs and large RAM. Windows is a completly differnet operating system running mostly on x86/amd64 hardware.
    therefore you should also consider what know-how is available in your system administration.
    not shure if that is partly answering your question ...
    btw. if you are going forward with AIX you should perhaps consider switching oracle with db2. so you have a consistent IBM based landscape. also to me, sap and db2 seem to "like" each other more than sap and oracle

  • Difference between 2 sub-totals in SAP query

    Hello Experts,
    Is there any possibility to find out the difference between 2 sub-totals and display it at the bottom of the ALV output( like total) in SAP Query using SQ01.
    For example: see below example(Request you to paste the below in an excel sheet for more readability).
    PRZ     25.05.2011     A 007 008 01 15     10     EA           0,00     INR          0,00     INR          2,00     INR               0,00     INR
    PRZ     27.05.2011     A 007 008 01 00     1     PC          10,00     INR          0,00     INR          0,20     INR               0,10     INR
    PRZ     27.05.2011     A 007 008 01 00     1     PC          10,00     INR          0,00     INR          0,20     INR               0,10     INR
    Sub-total               10     EA     20,00     INR          0,00     INR     2,40     INR     20     INR
                   2     PC                                        
    DRP     26.05.2011     WDB2020261X744924     1     PC          60,00     INR         50,00     INR         30,00     INR               0,00     INR
    DRP     31.05.2011     WDB2020261X744924     1     PC          60,00     INR         50,00     INR         30,00     INR               0,00     INR
    Sub-total               2     PC     120,00     INR     100,00     INR     60,00     INR               0,00     INR
    Grand totals               10     EA     140,00     INR     100,00     INR     62,40     INR     20     INR
                   4     PC                                        
    In the same way as Grand total, Is there any possibility to find out the difference between the 2 sub-totals and display at the bottom after the Grand Totals row.
    Please let me know if there is any possibility for the same.

    Just to update on my question.
    In the sub-totals line you can see that there is 20,00 INR value which is summation of the above fields present in individual line numbers above. And the same way for the rest of the fields as well.
    After calculating the sub-totals in this manned, I need to find out the difference between the subtotals and display it at the bottom of the output.
    Please let me know if this is possible.

  • Difference between Data warehouse BO and SAP BO

    Dear All,
    can anyone let me know the difference b/n data warehosue Business Objects and SAP Business Objects.....and aslo can u suggest which is the better future among these two tools....
    explaining in detailed view is highly appreciable!
    Thanks & Regards,
    V.Ravi Teja

    Hello,
    in the SAP BusinessObjects portfolio there is no solution for a DWH. A DWH is a DataStore based on a Database technology like Oracle. SAP BusinessObjects doesnt have its own Database. SAP BusinessObjects Tools support loads of Databases like Oracle, DB2, MS SQL etc.
    What the SAP BusinessObjects portfolio has is an ETL tool to create a DWH - called "DataServices". Also there is a tool for creating a virtual DWH - called "Data Federator"
    SAP has its own Datastore for a DWH - called "SAP Business Warehouse" (SAP BW)
    Hope this helps.

  • Difference between two infopackage delivered by SAP after cube active

    under datasource 0EMPLOYEE_TEXT we can see two infopackage, 0EMPLOYEE_TEXT_FULL_R3 and R/3 --> 0EMPLOYEE (Text)
    To infopackage 0EMPLOYEE_TEXT_FULL_R3 under schedule, the setting was Start Later in Background
    To infopackage R/3 --> 0EMPLOYEE (Text) under schedule, the setting was Start Data Load Immediately.
    Question: why does SAP provider two infopackage, what's the difference? How to use?
    Thanks!

    Hi,
    The two IP will work fine for two scenarios,
    first one which is a background will be helpful ,whenever the job was not included in Process chain and also mainly for the
    Init like that kind of stuff
    Second one will be helpful if you are doing to run immediately ,so tht you can schedule them as periodic or based on event
    Hope i answered your question.
    Reward point if helpful

  • What's the difference between  compensation and payroll  in SAP?

    Can someone give a answer?
    Thanks!

    Hi James,
    SAP Compensation is for Employee Merit Increase, Bonus, Equity etc.. It helps to setup rules for Employee eligibility and propose % increase or flat amount ..Once you apply compensation, it has option to create/change infotype 8, 15 .. You can create 267 through user exit.. Once you activate applied compensation for an employee, corresponding infotype records get created/changed (8 or 15 or 267)..which will get processed by SAP Payroll subsequently..
    Hope this help.
    Regards,

  • Difference between using the Enterprise Portal and SAP GUI

    Hi Gurus,
    Could one of you please send me a document that lists the differences between the Enterprise Portal and SAP GUI?
    thanks in advance

    Hi,
    For groups, managedBy is an administrative convenience to designate “group admins”. Whatever principal listed in
    managedBy gets permission to update a group’s membership (the actual security is updated on the group’s AD object to allow this).
    In Win2008 and later managedBy also became the way you delegated local administration on an RODC, allowing branch admins to install patches, manage shares, etc. (http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc755310(WS.10).aspx). 
    On the RODC, this is updating the RepairAdmin registry value within RODCRoles.
    So the difference between them should be only the way they do the same thing.
    For more details, please refer to the below article:
