Difference between standard dtp and direct access dtp

Hi,
Can anybody tell me the difference between standard DTP and Direct access DTP other than Help.sap.com.
Regards,
Devi

simple words.. Standard DTP needs to use for Physical data targets loading.
Direct Access DTP needs to use for virtual providers. you won't pull data into BI. it will directly retrive from DS while reporting .

What is the difference between standard,sorted and hash table

can anyone say what is the difference between standard,sorted and hash tabl

Hi,
Standard Tables:
Standard tables have a linear index. You can access them using either the index or the key. If you use the key, the response time is in linear relationship to the number of table entries. The key of a standard table is always non-unique, and you may not include any specification for the uniqueness in the table definition.
This table type is particularly appropriate if you want to address individual table entries using the index. This is the quickest way to access table entries. To fill a standard table, append lines using the (APPEND) statement. You should read, modify and delete lines by referring to the index (INDEX option with the relevant ABAP command). The response time for accessing a standard table is in linear relation to the number of table entries. If you need to use key access, standard tables are appropriate if you can fill and process the table in separate steps. For example, you can fill a standard table by appending records and then sort it. If you then use key access with the binary search option (BINARY), the response time is in logarithmic relation to
the number of table entries.
Sorted Tables:
Sorted tables are always saved correctly sorted by key. They also have a linear key, and, like standard tables, you can access them using either the table index or the key. When you use the key, the response time is in logarithmic relationship to the number of table entries, since the system uses a binary search. The key of a sorted table can be either unique, or non-unique, and you must specify either UNIQUE or NON-UNIQUE in the table definition. Standard tables and sorted tables both belong to the generic group index tables.
This table type is particularly suitable if you want the table to be sorted while you are still adding entries to it. You fill the table using the (INSERT) statement, according to the sort sequence defined in the table key. Table entries that do not fit are recognised before they are inserted. The response time for access using the key is in logarithmic relation to the number of
table entries, since the system automatically uses a binary search. Sorted tables are appropriate for partially sequential processing in a LOOP, as long as the WHERE condition contains the beginning of the table key.
Hashed Tables:
Hashes tables have no internal linear index. You can only access hashed tables by specifying the key. The response time is constant, regardless of the number of table entries, since the search uses a hash algorithm. The key of a hashed table must be unique, and you must specify UNIQUE in the table definition.
This table type is particularly suitable if you want mainly to use key access for table entries. You cannot access hashed tables using the index. When you use key access, the response time remains constant, regardless of the number of table entries. As with database tables, the key of a hashed table is always unique. Hashed tables are therefore a useful way of constructing and
using internal tables that are similar to database tables.

OAB - difference between standard rate and variable rate

What is the difference between standard rates and variable rates

These Variable rates will take into effect only when you check the "uses variable rate" check box in standard rate right?
Yes, variable rates are evaluated only if this flag is selected.
You mentioned Standard Rate is the rate you attach to a benefit. Where do we attach?
You donot attach the rate to a benefit in a separate form. You select the compensation object you want to attach the rate to within the standard rates form.

Difference between Standard Pricing and Moving Average Price

Hi,
Would like to seek some advises on the difference between standard price and Moving average price.
also, how does it affect the account postings differently?
Thanks

Standard Price
Materials whose price control indicator is set to S are valuated in Financial Accounting (FI) at standard price.
This is recommended for semifinished products and finished products.
The moving average price is shown as a statistical value in the material master record.
The standard price is normally calculated using a standard cost estimate for the material. The standard price can also be calculated in a mixed cost estimate.
Moving Average Price
When materials whose price control indicator is set to V are received from in-house manufacturing processes, they are initially valuated with a value you defined (such as the standard price). When you settle, the material stock account is debited with the variances. This results in a new moving average price.
Valuating semifinished products and finished products with the moving average price is not recommended.

Indranil

Difference between Standard Hierarchy and Alternate Hierarchy

Hi
Can anyone explain the difference between Standard Heirarchy and Alternate Hierarchy in Controlling.
Thanks in Advance,
Deepthi.

Standard Hierarchy: It is a hierarchy of cost center groups / profit center groups in which all cost centers / profit centers are gathered together in a controlling area.
In order to create cost centers, you require a structure in master data maintenance to which you can assign cost centers. You create this CO structure, the standard hierarchy, when you create a controlling area. If this hierarchy is not present during controlling area maintenance, the system automatically creates the highest node there.

Alternate Hierarchy: The alternate hierarchy setting in the controlling area enables you to name up to two more alternative hierarchies (according to fiscal year), which can be used for the authorization check in the same way as the standard hierarchy (meaning, that inheritance logic is used). You can also deactivate the standard hierarchy as an authorization hierarchy, and use only the alternative hierarchy.

What is the difference between Standard text and Text Symbols?

Hi,
1.Difference between Standard text and text symbol,?
2. Which we use Standard symbol?

Text symbol
Text symbols are symbols representing text elements. In fact, a text symbol can be defined for every text elements. The reading of the form is easier in the SAPscript editor. The name of the text symbol must not exceed 32 characters and its value 60 characters. The value assignement can be done in two ways:
- Using the following command: "/: DEFINE &SYMBOL&='TEST_SYMBOLE'"
- Using a standard text symbol.
The text symbol value is temporary stored. When the print program finishes the execution, the text symbol does not exist anymore. The text symbol must have a value when it is declared.
Also check this link,
http://www.supinfo-projects.com/en/2005/forms_sapscript_en/5/
Standard text are good, if you are using them in more than one SAPScript, because you have to maintain them only once, and not in every SAPScript.
It is really good to write rarely changing texts into the SO10 standard texts (for example company name, and address).
standard text is not always used in scripts. when ever u want to display some data u need to use standard text so that the data gets displayed. Say, u have a large piece of document which needs to be printed at end of script... rather than writing the whole thing in script, we create standard text using SO10 and then use the name along with standard text in script.

Difference between Batch input and Direct Input

Hi please tell me the difference between Batch Input and Direct Input in BDC?

hi aparna,
DIRECT INPUT
TO ENTER THE DATA INTO THE CORRESPONDING DATABASE TABLES DIRECTLY, THE SYSTEM CALLS A NUMBER OF FUNCTION MODULES THAT EXECUTE ANY NECESSARY CHECKS. IN CASE OF ERRORS, THE DIRECT INPUT TECHNIQUE PROVIDES A RESTART MECHANISM. HOWEVER, TO BE ABLE TO ACTIVATE THE RESTART MECHANISM, DIRECT INPUT PROGRAMS MUST BE EXECUTED IN THE BACKGROUND ONLY. DIRECT INPUT CHECKS THE DATA THOROUGHLY AND THEN UPDATES THE DATABASE DIRECTLY.
TO MAINTAIN AND STRAT THESE PROGRAMS, USE PGM RBMVSHOW OR THE TRANSACTION BMVO.
BATCH INPUT
TYPES SESSION METHOD, CALL TRANSACTION, DIRECT INPUT.
TO SAVE DATA IN THE BDCTAB, USE THE FIELDNAME BDC_OKCODE AND FIELD VALUE OF /11.
BDCDATA
THIS IS A STRUCTURE WHICH CONTAINS THE FOLLOWING FIELDS.
PROGRAM NAME OF TH MOD PROG ASSOCIATED WITH THE SCREEN. SET ONLY FOR THE FIRST RECORD OF THE SCREEN.
DYNPRO SCREEN NUMBER. ALSO SET ONLY FOR FIRST RECORD.
DYNBEGIN INDICATES THE FIRST RECORD OF THE SCREEN. SET X FOR FIRST RECORD OTHERWISE .
FNAM FIELD NAME.
FVAL VALUE FOR THE FIELD NAMED IN FNAM.
THE FIRST STEP IN BDC IS TO UPLOAD DATA FROM THE FLAT FILE OR SEQUENTIAL FILE TO THIS BDCTABLE.
SESSION METHOD
WE USE 3 FUNCTION MODULES IN THIS SESSION METHOD.
1) BDC_OPEN_GROUP
 USER NAME: USER NAME
 GROUP: NAME OF THE SESSION
 LOCK DATE: THE DATE ON WHICH YOU WANT TO PROCESS THE SESSION.
 KEEP: THIS PARAMETER IS PASSED AS X WHEN YOU WANT TO RETAIN SESSION AFTER PROCESSING IT OR TO DELETE IT AFTER PROCESSING.
THIS CREATES A SESSION
2) BDC_INSERT
 TCODE: TRANSACTION NAME
 DYNPROTAB: BDC DATA
THIS CREATES A SEESION AND DATA IS TRANSFERRED O SESSION.
3) BDC_CLOSE_GROUP THIS CLOSES THE BDC GROUP.
ONLY ONE SESSION CAN BE CREATED USING BDC_OPEN_GROUP. BUT MULTIPLE TRANSACTIONS CAN BE PROCESSED USING BDC_INSERT.
CALL TRANSACTION
CALL TRANSACTION <TCODE> USING <BDCTAB>
 MODE <A/N/E>
 UPDATE <S/A>
 MESSAGES INTO <MSGTAB>.
A ALL SCREEN MODE. ALL THE SCREEN OF THE TRANSACTION ARE DISPLAYED.
N NO SCREEN MODE. NO SCREEN IS DISPLAYED WHEN YOU EXECUTE THE TRANSACTION.
E ERROR SCREEN. IF THE SCREEN HAS ERROR RECORD, THEN THAT SCREEN WILL BE DISPLAYED.
S - IF YOU CHANGE DATA OF ONE TABLE THEN ALL THE RELATED TABLES GETS UPDATED. AND SY-SUBRC IS RETURNED I.E., SY-SUBRC IS RETURNED FOR ONCE AND ALL.
A - WHEN YOU CHANGE DATA OF ONE TABLE, THE SY-SUBRC IS RETURNED. AND THEN UPDATING OF OTHER AFFECTED TABLES TAKES PLACE. SO IF SYSTEM FAILS TO UPDATE OTHER TABLES, STILL SY-SUBRC RETURNED IS 0 (I.E., WHEN FIRST TABLE GETS UPDATED
WHEN YOU UPDATE DATABASE TABLE, OPERATION IS EITHER SUCCESSFUL OR UNSUCCESSFUL OR OPERATION IS SUCCESSFUL WITH SOME WARNING. THESE MESSAGES ARE STORED IN INTERNAL TABLE, WHICH YOU SPECIFY ALONG WITH MESSAGE STATEMENT. THIS INTERNAL TABLE SHOULD BE DECLARED LIKE BDCMSGCOLL, A STRUCTURE AVAILABLE IN ABAP/4. IT CONTAINS THE FOLLOWING FIELDS: TCODE, DYNAME, DYNUMB, MSGTYP, MSGID.
DIFFERENCE BETWEEN SESSION AND CALL TRANSACTION
 SESSION METHOD CALL TRANSACTION
1. DATA IS NOT UPDATED IN DATABASE TABLE UNLESS SESSION IS PROCESSED. IMMEDIATE UPDATION IN DATABASE TABLE.
2. NO SY-SUBRC IS RETURNED. SY-SUBRC IS RETURNED.
3. ERROR LOG IS CREATED FOR ERROR RECORDS. ERRORS NEED TO BE HANDLED EXPLICITLY
4. UPDATION IN DATABASE TABLE IS ALWAYS SYNCHRONOUS
 UPDATION IN DATABASE TABLE CAN BE SYNCHRONOUS OR ASYNCHRONOUS.
5. ASYNCHRONOUS PROCESSING SYNCHRONOUS PROCESSING
6. TRANSFERS DATA FOR SINGLE TRANSACTIONS TRANSFERS DATA FOR MULTIPLE TRANSACTIONS
ERROR HANDLING IN CALL TRANSACTION
1) CREATE AN INTERNAL TABLE SIMILAR TO THE STRUCTURE OF YOUR LOCAL FILE.
2) CREATE BDCTAB LIKE BDCDATA.
3) CREATE BDCMSG LIKE BDCMSGCOLL.
4) CREATE AN INTERNAL TABLE SIMILAR TO THE 1ST INTERNAL TABLE.
5) UPLOAD FN UPLOADS DATA FROM THE LOCAL FILE TO THE ITAB.
6) LOOP AT ITAB.
POPULATE BDCTAB TABLE.
CALL TRANSACTION STATEMENT.
PERFORM CHECK.
REFRESH BDCTAB.
ENDLOOP.
7) FORM CHECK.
IF SY_SUBRC <> 0.
CALL FUNCTION FORMAT_MESSAGE.
APPEND ITAB2.

Difference between Standard cost and standard price

Hi:
I have gone through google but i could not find any answer to the question clicking my mind. When we talk about standard cost and standard price..Should they be taken synonymously? Are these two same concepts... If there is any difference between two please do let me know..Similarly is there any difference between Actual cost and actual price. Please guide
Br

For Finished Goods, Cost is nothing but your manufacturing or procurement cost.
Where as Price is nothing but your sales price of the same Finished Goods.
Simply when you buy, it is cost and when you sell it is price.
Price includes cost + Profit or loss.
But from SAP point of view Standard Price field in Material master is Standard Cost.
Standard cost will be arrived when we manufacture or procure
Sale price will be entered in Sale order as condition value.

Difference between - Write Optimized and Direct Update DSO

Hi Gurus,
I know the similarities of the Write Optimized and Direct Update DSO.
But I want to know what is the difference between the both.
Can any expert let me know the difference between the both please.
Thanks

Hi,
Write Optimised DSO:
Write optimsed DSO has been designed to be the initial staging of the source system data from where the data could be transfered to the standard DSO or the Infocube.
The Data is immediately written to the further data targets.We can save the activation time.Reporting also possible on this.
SAP recommends to use Write-Optimized DataStore as a EDW inbound layer, and update the data into further targets such as standard DataStore objects or InfoCubes.
Direct Update DSO:
Dat a store object for direct update conatains daya in a single version.therefore data is stored same form in which it was written to DSO for direct update by the application.We can use this type of DSO for APD.
In IP we can use this dso and directly we can enter the data using RSINPUT.

Difference between standard edition and enterprise edition?

Is there any document describing the feature differences between Oracle 9i standard edition and enterprise edition?
Specifically is Oracle Text bundled with the standard edition?
Thanks a lot
James

Hi,
Check this document:
http://metalink.oracle.com/metalink/plsql/ml2_documents.showDocument?p_database_id=NOT&p_id=112591.1
Apart from the features that are present in E.E. and not in S.E., there is little difference (except the license price...).
Note that some seperately purchased options are only available with E.E., not S.E. (e.g. Partitioning, Enterprise Manager Packs).

Difference between ACH, Wires and Direct Debit

Can anyone tell me the difference between the following:
ACH
Wires
International Wires
Direct Debit
What is the additional configuration required from a functional consultant apart from setting them up as a payment method. Please help with all steps. and what inforamtion shouldbe requested from bank in order to set a data flow to and from the bank

Hi,
ACH - A provider of electronic funds transfer services in the United States, handling automated payments such as direct debit and direct credit.
Companies that use ACH send a DME file with information about the payments to be made. ACH then carries out the payments for them.
Direct Debit - Payment of an agreed amount that is collected from a customer's account by an originator on request.
A direct debit may or may not be subject to advance notice and the amounts may vary. Examples include the payment of utilities, news subscriptions, or the periodic collection of insurance premiums or loan payments.
Wire Transfer: Wire transfer is a method of transferring money from one entity to another
So U can create the APP Config FBZP for the ACH and Wire payments
Additionally search sdn.sap.com, you will find lot of information.
Please let me know if you need more information.
Assign points if useful.

Difference between BLOCK DATA and WEB ACCESS BLOCK?

Currently my account shows I have both BLOCK DATA and WEB ACCESS BLOCK in place. I did this a couple of years to prevent data charges. Works perfectly. Now I'm trying to upgrade one of my lines to a Kin Onem because of the WiFi option and when I add the phone to my shopping cart and go to the Select Features & Services Page I see a message at the bottom that says: Features We Needed To Remove (Because they're incompatible with your phones or plan) - Block Web Access.
It looks like I don't have a choice when ordering the phone, but what exactly will removing the Web Access block do? Maybe I have to turn it off anyway to use the WiFi anyway right? I just don't want to incur any data charges.
Someone please help. Thank you!

"Data block" actually blocks your phone's ability to connect to the 3g data network. What this means is your phone can't create an internet connection on a cellular network. Web Access block specifically blocks the browser/mobile web on your phone from making a connection. Unblocking mobile web will not cause your phone to be able to connect to the cellular data network (resulting in 1.99/mb charges), but will allow the browser on the kin to connect while you're using wifi.
