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!
Preethi.

Difference between Interface node and normal node?

What is the main difference between Interface node and normal node?
Cheers
Aisurya.

Hi surya,
Interface node or methods comes into picture whenever you want to use one component as used component. I mean to say
Component usages. If you select node as interface node, it will available in another component so you can use that node or methods.
Normal node means in that component only. Simply we can say for component usages we go for interface nodes.

Difference between ISU ABAP and normal ABAP

Hi ,
Can anyone tell me what is the difference between ISU ABAP and normal ABAP..Is there any difference..if So..what is the difference...also it will be veryuseful if any one has document regarding ISU ABAP..
Thanks & Regards.
Srini.

Hi,
From technical point of view, there is no difference, Instead of using R/3 tables you will be using IS-U tables in you select queries etc...
Functionally there are differnce in ISU and R/3 (SD/MM/PM/FI etc..)

Difference between abstract interface and normal interface

Hello Friends,
What is the Difference between abstract interface and normal interface?....

What is the Difference between abstract interface and
normal interface?....The difference is that you didn't follow convention in the first case. All interfaces are implicitly abstract so you don't have to declare them as such.

What is the difference between document class and normal class

Hi,
Please let me know what is the difference between document class and normal class.
And I have no idea which class should call as document class or call as an object.
Thanks
-Actionscript Developer

the document class is invoked immediately when your swf opens. the document class must subclass the sprite or movieclip class.
all other classes are invoked explicitly with code and need not subclass any other class.

Difference between US eliminations and "normal" intercompany eliminations?

Hi,
Can a kind soul please explain the differences between intercompany eliminations and US eliminations please?
Thanks

Hi Varda ,
RDA is Real Time Data Acquisition . In this We can retrieve Live data . While using Normal DTP We can t pull live data
For example :- Today We have Create a 50 orders . This 50 order information pulled after completion of sales order creation . we can t see live . But RDA process pulled the data at the point of sales order creation it self ,It support only Stranded DSO .It will use Some industries like FMCG.Retail,banking sector they want to know current data information from BI Side then RDA.

Difference between Low level and Normal IMAQ ?

There are two options in IMAQ palette a low level and a normal one. Both have the same function names and the same icons the only difference being the balck and white icon of low level functions and colored icons of the normal functions. What is the difference between these two and what is the need of making a low level palette of functions ?

Low level imaq functions gives you relatively more function to control the hardware. Buffer functions is one which is not there on the high level palatte

The difference between FIELD-SYMBOL and normal DATA TYPE

Dear experts,
Please see the example below, both are output the same result.
DATA: EXTERNAL_RECORD(4000),
 POSITION TYPE I,
 LENGTH TYPE N,
 ENTRY TYPE STRING.
EXTERNAL_RECORD = '0005Smith0007Edwards0005Young'.
DO.
LENGTH = EXTERNAL_RECORD+POSITION(4).
IF LENGTH = 0.
 EXIT.
ENDIF.
ADD 4 TO POSITION.
MOVE EXTERNAL_RECORD+POSITION(LENGTH) TO ENTRY.
WRITE ENTRY.
ADD LENGTH TO POSITION.
IF POSITION >= 4000.
 EXIT.
ENDIF.
ENDDO.
--OR It can be written as--
DATA: EXTERNAL_RECORD(4000),
 POSITION TYPE I,
 LENGTH TYPE N.
FIELD-SYMBOLS <ENTRY>.
EXTERNAL_RECORD = '0005Smith0007Edwards0005Young'.
DO.
LENGTH = EXTERNAL_RECORD+POSITION(4).
IF LENGTH = 0.
 EXIT.
ENDIF.
ADD 4 TO POSITION.
ASSIGN EXTERNAL_RECORD+POSITION(LENGTH) TO <ENTRY>.
WRITE <ENTRY>.
ADD LENGTH TO POSITION.
IF POSITION >= 4000.
 EXIT.
ENDIF.
ENDDO.
Is there any special circumstances we need to use FIELD-SYMBOL?
Why is FIELD-SYMBOL is introduce in the first place?
Kindly advice with example.
Thanks in advance for those who can help me on this.

HI,
You can use field symbols to make the program more dynamic. In this example the name of a table control is substituted by a field symbol. Thus you cal call the form with any internal table, using the name of the table control as a parameter.
Example
form insert_row
using p_tc_name.
field-symbols <tc> type cxtab_control. "Table control
assign (p_tc_name) to <tc>.
insert 100 lines in table control
<tc>-lines = 100.
Field symbols allow you to:
** Assign an alias to a data object(for example, a shortened
 name for data objects structured through several hierarchies
 - <fs>-f instead of rec1-rec2-rec3-f)
** Set the offset and length for a string variably at runtime
** Set a pointer to a data object that you determine at runtime (dynamic ASSIGN)
** Adopt or change the type of a field dynamically at runtime
** Access components of a structure
** (from Release 4.5A) Point to lines of an internal table
 (process internal tables without a separate work area)
Field symbols in ABAP are similar to pointers in other programming
languages. However, pointers (as used in PASCAL or C) differ from ABAP
field symbols in their reference syntax.
The statement ASSIGN f to <fs> assigns the field f to field
symbol <fs>. The field symbol <fs> then "points" to the
contents of field f at runtime. This means that all changes to the
contents of f are visible in <fs> and vice versa. You declare
the field symbol <fs> using the statement FIELD-SYMBOLS: <fs>.
Reference syntax
Programming languages such as PASCAL and C use a dereferencing symbol
to indicate the difference between a reference and the object to which
it refers; so PASCAL would use p^ for a pointer instead of p, C would
use *p instead of p. ABAP does not have any such dereferencing symbol.
** In PASCAL or C, if you assign a pointer p1 to a pointer p2,
you force p1 to point to the object to which p2 refers (reference semantics).
** In ABAP, if you assign a field symbol <fs1> to a field
symbol <fs2>, <fs1> takes the value of the data object to
which <fs2> refers (value semantics).
** Field symbols in ABAP are always dereferenced, that is,
they always access the referenced data object. If you want to
change the reference yourself in ABAP, you can use the ASSIGN statement
to assign field symbol <fs1> to field symbol <fs2>.
Using field symbols
You declare field symbols using the FIELD-SYMBOLS statement.
They may be declared either with or without a specific type.
At runtime you assign a field to the field symbol using the ASSIGN
statement. All of the operations on the field symbol act on the field
assigned to it.
When you assign a field to an untyped field symbol, the field symbol
adopts the type of the field. If, on the other hand, you want to assign
a field to a typed field symbol, the type of the field and that of the
field symbol must be compatible.
A field symbol can point to any data object and from Release 4.5A,
they can also point to lines of internal tables.
The brackets (<>) are part of the syntax.
Use the expression <fs> IS ASSIGNED to find out whether the field
symbol <fs> is assigned to a field.
The statement UNASSIGN <fs> sets the field symbol <fs> so
that it points to nothing. The logical expression <fs>
IS ASSIGNED is then false. The corresponding negative expression
is IF NOT <fs> IS ASSIGNED.
An unassigned field symbol <fs> behaves as a constant with
type C(1) and initial value SPACE.
MOVE <fs>
TO dest Transfers the initial value SPACE to the variable dest
MOVE 'A' to <fs>
Not possible, since <fs> is a constant
(runtime error).
To lift a type restriction, use the CASTING addition in the
ASSIGN statement. The data object is then interpreted as though
it had the data type of the field symbol. You can also do this
with untyped field symbols using the CASTING TYPE <type> addition.
The danger with pointers is that they may point to invalid areas.
This danger is not so acute in ABAP, because the language does not
use address arithmetic (for example, in other languages, pointer p
might point to address 1024. After the statement p = p + 10, it would
point to the address 1034). However, the danger does still exist, and
memory protection violations lead to runtime errors.
A pointer in ABAP may not point beyond a segment boundary. ABAP does
not have one large address space, but rather a set of segments.
Each of the following has its own segment:
* All global data
* All local data
* Each table work area (TABLES)
* Each COMMON PART
You should only let field symbols move within an elementary field or
structure where ABAP allows you to assign both within the global data
and beyond a field boundary.

What is the difference between CE Portal and normal Portal

Can someone tell me the difference between CE Portal & Normal Portal. I mean, I keep hearing that SAP EP 7.2 is CE portal whereas SAP EP 7.3 is not CE portal.
Can I assume that CE (Composite environment) is a failure model so SAP switched back to Non-CE environment ? Your inputs please.

Hello,
SAP NetWeaver Composition Environment 7.1 and 7.2 have been introduced as a lean "side-car" approach to complement the SAP NetWeaver standard release. Main reason was to provide composition tools and services based on a enhanced Java technology stack (back the time).
The official successor of SAP NetWeaver 7.0 (or any of the enhancements packages) has been SAP NetWeaver 7.3 (where we brougth various tools together back into one SAP NetWeaver codeline.) Nowadays we recommend the latest release: SAP NetWeaver 7.4 including the Enterprise Portal 7.4.
Customers & Partners who did not want to install the full SAP NetWeaver Java stack had the chance to only go with the Composition Environment - that contained selected portal core services. These are mainly used for application integration / launching scenarios and not supportin full enterprise portal (intranet / extranet) scenarios - that's why there is no KM included.
Hope this helps to get a better understanding.

Thomas

BAdIs Concept
Use
BAdIs or Business Add-Ins are used to create predefined enhancement options in the SAP ERP components, which are then appropriately implemented by the individual industry solutions, country variants, or even by partners and customers.
Classic BAdIs have been present in ABAP-based SAP systems since Release 4.6. In contrast to the enhancement technology used up to then (for example, function module exits,) BAdIs are based on ABAP objects.
The reimplementation of BAdIs for Release 7.0 had two main goals:
· By integrating the BAdIs in the ABAP programming language through the new language elements GET BADIand CALL BADI, their performance was considerably enhanced.
· The new BAdIs provide more flexibility in the conversion of predefined enhancement options through new, orthogonal properties such as contexts and filters.
The new ABAP language elements and their additions ensure that these additional options can be used comfortably in ABAP programs. Within the Enhancement Framework, a new BAdI is always meant by the term BAdI. If there is explicit reference to the previous BAdI concept, such BAdIs are referred to as classic BAdIs.
Definition of BAdIs
Use
When you define a BAdI, you must specify a name, a BAdI interface as the interface for the enhancement option, and the required filters. The name of a BAdI is in the same namespace as data types from the ABAP Dictionary, global classes, or interfaces. It is recommended that you use suitable prefixes, such as BADI_.
A filter consists of a filter name and a data type (integer, string, and so on).
In addition, you also define BAdI properties that are relevant at runtime of a program with the appropriate statements GET BADI and CALL BADI. For more information, see Instance Generation Mode and Multiple Use.
Other properties that can be assigned to a BAdI include:
● An optional fallback BAdI implementation class. This option is used if no BAdI implementation with suitable filter conditions and no standard implementation is found.
● Whether the BAdI is internal or not.
An internal BAdI must only be implemented by SAP and is not visible outside of SAP.
● Whether the BAdI is a function code or screen enhancement.
A BAdI that is defined as a function code enhancement must not have any filters, must not be defined for multiple use, or assigned to any switch. It may contain methods that are independent of the actual function code enhancement.
A BAdI that is defined as a screen enhancement must be defined in the instance generation mode for the reused instantiation and must not be defined for multiple use. It may contain BAdI methods that can be used to fill or evaluate the screen fields of the respective subscreens.
Calling BAdIs
Use
After their definition and independent of an implementation, BAdIs can be called using a combination of the ABAP statements GET BADI and CALL BADI:
· GET BADI FILTERS f1=x1 ... fn=xn selects the BAdI implementations whose filter condition is met by the filter values specified in the statement. The BAdI implementation classes assigned to the selected implementations are instantiated and passed to a simultaneously created BAdI object which serves as a handle for the implementation.
· CALL BADI badi->meth addresses the BAdI object which passes the call of BAdI methods to the object plug-ins known to the BAdI handle.
For detailed information about these statements, see the ABAP Keyword Documentation.
In the context of the Enhancement Framework, the above statements together form the enhancement spot element calls of an explicit enhancement option. Conceptually, they are part of the definition of an enhancement option.
Procedure
For a multiple-use BAdI, several implementations can be called one after the other using CALL BADI. The sequence in which several object plug-ins are called consecutively is the same in repeated calls, but it can be determined in advance in the BADI_SORTER enhancement spot using the predefined BAdI BADI_SORTER:
1. Create the new implementation BADI_SORTER.
2. Enter the name of the BAdI whose object plug-ins you want to call in a sorted sequence as the filter condition for the BADI_NAME filter.
3. Create a screen enhancement to query any kind of sort criterion.
The Enhancement Builder then displays this subscreen with each implementation of the BAdI to be sorted.
4. Implement the methods of the BAdI interface IF_BADI_SORTER according to your sort criteria in the BAdI implementation class.
Without this procedure, the sequence is undefined.
Reward me if its useful.

Abhay.

Difference between BEx tansport and normal transport

Dear Experts,
Could someone please explain the difference between normal transport truck button and the truck with 'BEx' as label.
Please let me know the context where these will be using
Kind regards
Shanthi

If you press the help button this appears:
Transporting BEx Objects
BEx objects (queries and workbooks) are transported differently in BI to
other objects. When you maintain these objects, you do not get a dialog
box asking you to create a transport request. Instead, an administrator
has to generate requests for these objects in the Data Warehousing
Workbench (function area Transport Connection).
Standard BEx Transport Requests
All BEx objects that have been transported already and have therefore
been assigned to a package, are written to a standard BEx request
whenever they are changed. This request is set by the administrator. All
changes are written to this request regardless of the current user.
When this request is released, the administrator needs to create a new
BEx request immediately. If there is no request stored as a BEx request,
you are not able to process queries or workbooks.
BEx Transport Requests for Single Packages
In some cases, one request is not big enough for all the BEx objects.
This can be the case, for example, if you want to transport objects from
a development system into various different productive systems.
If this happens, you can create BEx request for each package. The BEx
objects are distributed among the different requests according to their
package. The package specifies among other things the transport target
of an object, and this means that you are able to use this process to
put BEx objects that you want to transport to different transport
targets into different requests.
If you do not create a special request for the package of an object, the
object is written to the standard BEx transport request.
Remember to create a new request as soon as one request is released.
Hope it helps.
