Difference between saved views & workbooks

Hello,
I still cannot see what is the technical difference between a view and a workbook. When is one used over the other? Both contains saved results.
Pls could help enlighten.
regards,
Pascal

hi kishore,
We use workbooks for excel formating,like font changes, lay out changes etc...
Workbooks into which queries are inserted are no different in appearance than other Excel workbooks.
They can be saved as files, copied, sent and (using Excel functions) edited however you like and even supplemented with other data.
Views are primarily used for BW Web Reports, it is similar to the concept of workbooks is for BEx.A local view can be accessed only within a workbook in which it was saved, where as a global view can be accessed globally in the system, it is not attached to a workbook. Only Global view can be used in BW Web Templates.
u can seee the help doc for more details:

What is the difference between Saved views and queries

Hi all,
Just i want to know the difference between 2 options in the Bex Analyzer. Those options are "Queries" and " Saved Views". Please check it out and let me know the difference

To add to the previous posts, saved views can also be useful when developing web templates. You can create and save one query and then save a number of views from this query, with different layouts, filters etc. web templated can then be developed using the saved views. BW 2004s introduces a whole load of standard functions to switch dataproviders in web templates. Thes can be used to switch between a number of views in a template. I have used this to present selections of key figures, switch navigation states etc.

Diffrance between saved views and workbooks

Hello Friends,
Good Morning ..
Could any one please tell me what is the diff between saved view and Workbooks. .?
It will be nice help for me.
Thanks .

Hi Jain,
Do not know if your question is already answered. Let me give you my thoughts on this subject ... start with what is a query.
A query definition is saved on the server. Never anywhere else.
Although people say a workbook contains a query (or several queries); it does not. It contains a reference to a query. The workbook can be saved on the server; or anywhere else that you might save an Excel workbook.
What happens if someone changes the query definition on the server? Answer: the next time you refresh the query in the Excel workbook, the new query definition replaces the old query definition in the workbook. Maybe. It depends on what change was made.
For example, if someone added a Condition to the query definition, the workbook will be virtually invisible to this. The Condition is available; but, is not implemented in the workbook. (Until the user of the workbook manually adds the view of the Condition and then activates it.)
For example, if someone changed the definition of a KF in the query definition, the revised KF will show up in place of the old KF in the workbook.
But ... if, for example, someone deleted the old KF and added a new KF, we get a different story. Now the old KF no longer appears (it does not exist); but, the new KF does not appear (it was not marked to be visible in the workbook).
About workbooks as views ... OK, a workbook may very well have a certain "view" of the query (drilldown, filters, et cetera). And, if the workbook is saved to the server in a Role where everyone can access it, this is good. But, if the workbook is saved to one's favorites, then this "view" is only accessible to that individual. Which may be good. Or may not.
A "saved view", on the other hand is stored on the server. So, it is available to all.
If you navigate in a workbook you can back up. You can back up, though, only as far as you navigated in the current session. You cannot back up to where you were in the middle of last week's session. Unless you saved that navigation state as a "saved view". Then, you can jump to that view at any time.
The downside of saved views is that they are easy for anyone to set up and difficult for most to delete.

Difference between Materialised view in 10g and 11g

Hi,
I am beginner . I want to know the difference between Materialized view between 10g and 11g. Is there any impact if the materialized view used in 10g gets upgraded to 11g ?
awaiting ur response.Please and Thanks

In addition to the documentation, you might want to look at the blog of Alberto Dell'Era:
http://www.adellera.it/blog/
Alberto writes quite a bit about materialized views, including this important change in 11GR2:

What is the difference between saving to "Documents" and "Macintosh HD" and when should you use each one?*

What is the difference between saving to "Documents" and "Macintosh HD" and when should you use each one?

When you save to the folder with the little house icon, the file is placed at
/Users/your_user_name/
You would really have to go out of my way to save at:
(the shortcut for the Boot Drive, regardless of its name).
I am not sure how you decided that Time Machine is not saving your files. The default is for Time Machine to do incremental Backups of everything on all attached drives, except for certain temporary information in Cache files. If you have four Users, Time Machine will back them all up.
Looking at the raw Time Machine backups will tell you very little, because it does lots of its work with Hard Links, and because it does incremental backups, so only files that changed since the last Backup are saved at thet cycle. The way to determine whether Time Machine is saving things is to display the window you care about in the Finder, then invoke the "Star wars"/ "Back, back, back in time" Interface.

Is there a difference between saving on your HD and saving on a DVD disc ?

I understand that when I save a photo or page on my HD I only copy the link and when the photo or page is removed I won't be able to see it.
Also when I click on a page with a photo that was on my HD, it will show no image just text, if I'm not connected to the internet. But once I'm connected it will show it.
So saving a page with photos on your HD actually doesn't mean a thing; your page is not saved ! meaning you can't see it whenever you want, even years from now. If they remove the page, you won't see anything (just text and sometimes not even that).
So, once I save/copy the picture on a DVD disc is it permanent ? will I be able to see it even if they remove the photo from the Web ?
Maybe I'm naive but once it is on a DVD disc I should see what is on the DVD disc, just like I watch today a VHS tape with "The Odd Couple" or "Taxi" although these shows are not on the air, the stations doesn't even exist anymore but it's all irrelevant because I COPYED the show, it is physically on my tape and therefore I can see it anytime I want. Isn't it the same with a disc ?
In other words is there a difference between saving something on your HD and saving it on a DVD disc ?

Hi, difference between database view and elementary search help

hi
pl. can any one tell me the difference between
database view and elementary search help,

and database view and help view.
in the output i do not see any difference.
thanx.

HI
An entire table can be included in a database view. In this case all the fields of the included table will become fields of the view (whereby you can explicitly exclude certain fields). If new fields are included in the table or existing fields are deleted, the view is automatically adjusted to this change.
Database view:

Difference between Database view and Table

Hi there,
Can anyone tell me the difference between Database view and Table.
Will the Database view query be more faster than a database table?

Tables and database views can be defined in the ABAP Dictionary.
These objects are created in the underlying database with this definition. Changes in the definition of a table or database view are also automatically made in the database.
Data from several tables can be combined in a meaningful way using a view (join).
You can also hide information that is of no interest to you (projection) or only display
those data records that satisfy certain conditions (selection).
Database views implement an inner join. You only get those records which have an
entry in all the tables included in the view.
in views db modifications are not possible
views only contain data at run time
when they consult the database
in case of views the join definitions are already sstored in the database itself
whereas join as open sql is a query to oracle database as similar select statements
Views are optimized by SAP and stored in the repository while Joins
are in reports that needs to be compiled at every execution
Reward if helps

Difference between materailized view and a table

hey hiii
i want to know what is a difference between a materialized view and a table i.e suppose i create a table A and another table B on table A i have created a trigger which will upload all the changes made in A ie insert,update or delete so whether this will perform all the action that a materialized view can perform on A or is there any difference between them
thks

I'll add to Nicolas' answer that the MV maintenance does have access to mechsnisms other than row-by-row replication of the trigger-based type. Direct path inserts to the base table are very efficiently propagated to the MV, as are partition-based DDL operations. Also MV's come with optional query rewrite built in (you need 10g+ to query rewrite to a non-MV data set), and scheduled refresh so you can defer maintenance of the data set until later.
MV maintenance can be less efficient though -- you may know something about the data and the way that it changes that allows you to write more efficient meintenance than the MV code.

Difference between all views in data dic

hi all,
can any body tell me the diff between all views
projection view ,database view,maintance view,help view
plz tell me the difference with a example
hope for positive reponse

A view is a logical view on one or more tables, that is, a view is not actually physically stored, instead being derived from one or more other tables.
In the simplest case, this derivation process can involve simply suppressing the display of one or more fields from a table (projection) or transferring only certain records from a table to the view (selection). More complicated views can be assembled from several tables, with individual tables being linked using the relational join operation.
Use
Logical views for the application permitting direct access to the data can be generated with the definition of view. The structure of such a view is defined by specifying the tables and fields involved in the view.
Maintenance Views 
Maintenance views offer easy ways to maintain complex application objects.
Data distributed on several tables often forms a logical unit, for example an application object, for the user. You want to be able to display, modify and create the data of such an application object together. Normally the user is not interested in the technical implementation of the application object, that is in the distribution of the data on several tables.
A maintenance view permits you to maintain the data of an application object together. The data is automatically distributed in the underlying database tables. The maintenance status determines which accesses to the data of the underlying tables are possible with the maintenance view.
Database Views 
Data about an application object is often distributed on several database tables. A database view provides an application-specific view on such distributed data.
Database views are defined in the ABAP Dictionary. A database view is automatically created in the underlying database when it is activated.
Application programs can access the data of a database view using the database interface. You can access the data in ABAP programs with both OPEN SQL and NATIVE SQL. However, the data is actually selected in the database. Since the join operation is executed in the database in this case, you can minimize the number of database accesses in this way. Database views implement an inner join
Projection Views 
Projection views are used to hide fields of a table. This can minimize interfaces; for example when you access the database, you only read and write the field contents actually needed.
A projection view contains exactly one table. You cannot define selection conditions for projection views.
There is no corresponding object in the database for a projection view. The R/3 System maps the access to a projection view to the corresponding access to its base table. You can also access pooled tables and cluster tables with a projection view.
Help Views 
You have to create a help view if a view with outer join is needed as selection method of a search help.
The selection method of a search help is either a table or a view. If you have to select data from several tables for the search help, you should generally use a database view as selection method. However, a database view always implements an inner join. If you need a view with outer join for the data selection, you have to use a help view as selection method.

Difference between INLINE view and WITH clause

Can anyone plz explain me about the performance difference between the below queries?
Query using INLINE view:
SELECT e.ename AS employee_name,
dc.dept_count AS emp_dept_count
FROM emp e,
(SELECT deptno, COUNT(*) AS dept_count
FROM emp
GROUP BY deptno) dc
WHERE e.deptno = dc.deptno;
Query using WITH clause:
WITH dept_count AS (
SELECT deptno, COUNT(*) AS dept_count
FROM emp
GROUP BY deptno)
SELECT e.ename AS employee_name,
dc.dept_count AS emp_dept_count
FROM emp e,
dept_count dc
WHERE e.deptno = dc.deptno;

Here's another one:
http://www.oracle-base.com/articles/misc/WithClause.php
And, here on this forum you will see that the WITH-clause is heavily used by all of us in order to generate some sample data (when OP's don't care to post CREATE TABLE + INSERT INTO statements).
The WITH clause enables you as well to 'pretend' you have a table and demonstrate a solution very quickly, without doing actual DDL .
As for the performance difference:
We would need to know your database version and many other things.
See:
HOW TO: Post a SQL statement tuning request - template posting
for step by step instructions you can (and should) explore yourself.

Difference between interface view and interface controller

Hi,
What is the difference between interface controller and interface view?
When we will use interface controller and when we will use interface view?
How do we create an interface view?
How do we attach this interface view to a view in another component
Regards
MQ

Hi
Interface View Controllers
A) Implement event handlers which are called when ..
-starting (start-up plugs) Web Dypro applications
-a component is reached via navigation (inbound plugs)
B) Allow fireing outbound plugs (navigation)
C) Allow firing exit plug
D) Have no own context, public methods or events
Interface Controller of a Component
The interface controller of a Web Dynpro component contains all context nodes, events and methods of the component controller to which you assigned the Interface addition in the Controller Editor. These parts can be displayed in the interface controller view, although you cannot edit them here.
Interface Controller of a Component Interface
A Web Dynpro component interface can be created independently and defined so that it can be implemented later in any components (see working with Web Dynpro Component Interfaces in the Programming Manual of this documentation). That is why in this case you can define the context nodes, methods and events you require in the interface controller view. The relevant implementation then takes place in the component controller of the implementing component.
Check this links and work on it.

Wrong position of objects / difference between editor view and browser view.

Dear Adobe
System info: Mac OS X 10.9, Muse 7.1 Build 329, Chrome, Safari and Firefox in the newest versions.
I use Muse since version 5 and this effect does exist 'til today (v7.1) without any changes.
Many times i have differences in the position of placed objects. But this missbehaviour is not realy logical. For example take a look to this illustration:
Left: Muse Editor, right: Browser (in this case its chrome, but the effect is identical in safari and firefox too)
Left you see one pixel space between the blue bar and the shadow (image-object). In the browser is the space bigger (2px). When i move the shadow-object in muse one pixel higher, then look this so:
The shadow is now within the bluebar. The position has changed in muse for 1 pixel, in browser around 7 pixels... i don't see, why.
Another example:
Left Muse Editor, right Browser... do you see the dramatic difference between?
I hope, this problem can be solved with a future version...
Best regards
Michael

This variation is due to the difference in the layout of text between Design view and Preview, which is representative of the variations that exist between browsers, OSes, devices and individual versions of each of those.
It's impossible to reverse engineer the structure of the objects from the screenshots, but how the objects or individual sized and positioned relative to one another is key to understanding (and explaining) what you're encountering.
If you provide the URL for this page I'll attempt take a look at it and provide some guidance for how to achieve the effect you're looking for within the constraints inherent in working with live text on the web.
