Difference between Technical and Business transaction archiving?

Hi Guys,
Can any one explain the difference between Technical and business transaction archiving with practical example?
When we will go for Technical archiving and when we will go for business transaction archiving?
Thanks,
Vinod.

Hello Vinod,
To me, Archiving Objects can be separated into 3 categories; Technical, Master Data and Transactional.  Technical Archiving would include archive objects such as IDOC's, BC_SBAL (application logs), BDCLOGPROD (batch input logs), etc.  Master Data Archive Objects would include MM_MATNR (material master), FI_ACCPAYB (vendor master data), FI_ACCRECV (customer master data), etc.  And, Transactional Archive Objects would include FI_DOCUMNT (financial documents), SD_VBAK (sales orders), MM_EKKO (purchase orders), etc.
Techincal Archive Objects usually are easier to implement and require less resources.  Master Data and Transactional Archive Objects usually take longer to implement as they will require business testing and sign-off.
This is a high-level explanation and I hope it helps answer your questions.
Best Regards,
Karin Tillotson

  • Difference between wc27 and md01 transactions?

    Hi Experts,
    Could you please tell me what is the difference between wc27 and md01 transactions?
    Best Regards,
    Parag Save.

    MD01 is the transaction for running the MRP in the foreground (online).  WC27 is for running the MRP in the background (batch), but you can also do via MDBT.  In MDBT when you create or edit total planning variant you are running the same program as WC27.  Typically you use just MDBT if you want to create MRP batch jobs.

  • Difference between ob08 and oc41 Transaction code in Exchange rate

    Hi,
    Can any one help me out what is the difference between OB08 and Oc41 in transaction code in Exchange rates...
    Thanks in Advance
    Sivanand

    hi Siva,
    When foreign currencies are valuated, all the open items that were posted in a foreign currency are valuated. The valuation is based on the individual open items in a foreign currency, that is, each open item in a foreign currency is valuated individually.
    The exchange rate table is OB08
    AND
    OC41 is another transaction to the exchange rate table.
    When you try to change you cannt change the rates sometimes.... but u can see the rates displayed.......

  • Difference between SWEC and SWED transactions

    Hi all,
    SWEC is used to link the Change Doc. Object with Business Object event.
    SWED is used to link Change Doc. Object with Primary Table.
    My qus. is ->
    (1) Change Doc. object which is used in SWEC is linked to table(s) in SCDO tcode. Then what is the need to configure again in tcode SWED ?
    (2) While linking Changed Doc. obj. with workflow through Business Object, do we need to configure in both (SWEC and SWED) or only in SWEC ?
    Thanks,
    Deb

    Hi DM,
    If you are aware of change documents, then you must be aware of change document tables i.e; CDHDR & CDPOS.
    There table capture all changes made to a document like PO, SO, PR etc.
    Similary, in SWED, you define which changes should be captured/recorded for your documents with respect to workflow.
    For example, if you have created an entry in SWED table for PO & you have checked all the checkboxes, i.e; CREATE, CHANGE & DELETE, then whenever a PO is created/changed & Deleted, it will be logged.
    You make use of this log to trigger your workflow using events.
    This event-->CDO relation is done through SWEC.
    Here you define which event should be triggered upon which action.
    For example if you want to trigger your Z-event upon PO deletion, then you can configure it here.
    Hope i was able to explain you.

    Raj

  • Difference between Technical & Business Systems??

    Hello Experts,
                        What are the differences between Technical System & Business System in SAP PI??Why we need to create Technical & Business Systems??

    Hi Ashley!
    To say it in simple words:
    The technical system represents the "technology" or "server" level of a system. On a technical system Software Products and Software Components are installed (SLD).
    Business Systems are one or more logical systems sitting on top of a technical system.
    In case of SAP systems a physical SAP System (with one SAPSID) is represented by a Technical System in SLD while the clients (and logical systems) of such a SAP system are represented by Business Systems (one for each client/logical system).
    I know there are much more differences and explanations, but to get a first idea of the differences and purposes I hope these few words are enough for you ....
    The most important part for PI are the business systems.

    Volker

  • Difference between ME58 and ME59

    HI,
    What is the difference between ME58 and ME59 transactions?

    HI,
    ME58 allows the user to pick assigned requisitions and manually convert them into POs. First you enter the criteria to select the purchase requisitions. These are then grouped by vendor (and contract). User manually selects a vendor to process. Select the order type, purchasing group etc., copy the requisition lines into the PO and save.
    ME59 selects requisitions and lists the ones it was able to convert into POs.
    There is a big difference on the level of control between the two transactions and businesses using ME59 should put a manual review step in if they are converting requisitions generated from MRP.

  • Difference between SPAM and SAINT

    hi all,
          Can anybody tell me that what is the difference between SPAM and SAINT transactions
    and can anybody explain me the senarios in which they are used with examples and step by step guidance
    waiting for your reply..........
    regards,
    Hardik.

    SPAM (Support Package application manager)- It is used for applying support packages

    SAINT (SAP Add-on installation tool) - It is used to install add-on's (eg. SEM or FINBASIS add-on for BI)

  • Difference between CO88 and KO88?

    Hi All,
    1. Any difference between CO88 and KO88 transactions(Please explain clearly)?
    2. Found one <b>REVERSE</b> menu item in the menu bar in both transactions. What is the purpose?
    3. Any <b>Functon module or BAPI</b> to acheive same result?( Above SAP transactions are performing for Reverse and Settlement).
    Any help will be appreciated.
    Thanks
    Rocky

    KO88 allows you to settle production orders one at a time.  You specify the order number
    CO88 is a collective process and will settle all order in a plant (or all plants) that have had WIP and Variance calculations pocessed.
    We use CO88 in the background as an overnight process and then use KO88 if orders needed correction and settlement individually (no point in running the entire plant to get 1 order)
    KO88 and CO88 should both be tested when new processes are created.

  • What is the difference between action and workflow? How do I decide that I need an action in a transaction and not a workflow and vice versa?

    Dear Experts,
    I have few doubts and request your expert inputs to clarify my doubts.
    What is the difference between action and workflow? How do I decide that I need an action in a transaction and not a workflow and vice versa?
    Your earliest response is highly appreciated.
    Thanks,
    SMTP

    Hi SMTP,
    First of all, as I mentioned action is nothing but an executable work item which is designed in the workflow itself. In other words, Workflow is like your OOPS class. At run time, workflow instances are created just like objects of classes. Now, the steps designed in the workflow are called TASKS and the instances of tasks are called WORKITEMS. Now, the work items where any user action is required are called executable work items. ANd the work items where no user action is required (for example, sending an email in background) are called non-executable work items.
    Whether to go with development of workflow or not depends upon your business scenario. If your requirement is only to send an email and you find any BAdi or exit where in you can write your logic then there is no need of creating a workflow. If there is a defined business process with defined users and time lines, then you can go with the development of workflows.
    Rest, the below link will help you in understanding basic concepts of workflow :

  • Differences between BADIS and User-exits

    Hi everybody,
    I am new to ABAP and wonder what are the differences between BADIS and User-Exits. I read paper but did not find a SAP documentation yet.
    Does anybody know where to find a sap document which explains both technologies?
    Greetings, AD

    Hi,
    User-Exit is a specific place in a transaction-process where SAP offers
    third parties to include there own business functionality. Actually
    User-Exit is the namespace used for Exits programmed by SAP specifically
    for SD. For the other modules it's called Customer-Exit.=20
    >Business Add-Ins (BADI) =20
    The use of object orientated code within SAP has lead to new method of
    enhancing standard SAP code called Business Add-Ins or BADI's for short.
    Although the implementation concept is based on classes, methods and
    inheritance you do not really have to understand this fully to implement
    a BADI.
