Difference between the 3 availability checks

Dear SD experts,
Could you please explain me to understand the difference between the following 3 availability checks?
a) Available to Promise
b) Product allocation
c) Against Planning (Rule based)
In what kind of scenario, the above availability check should be carried out? Please explain with example
Thank you
Regards

Good Afternoon,
Check on the Basis of the ATP Quantities
The ATP quantity (ATP = Available To Promise) is calculated from the
warehouse stock, the planned inward movements of stock (production
orders, purchase orders, planned orders) and the planned outward
movements of stock (sales orders, deliveries, reservations). This type
of check is performed dynamically for each transaction, taking into
account the relevant stock and planned goods movements with or without
replenishment lead time. Planned independent requirements are not
taken into account here!!!

Check against planning
The check against planning is performed against independent requirements
which are usually created for an "anonymous" market rather than being
customer-specific (for example, in the strategy #Planning without
assembly#, when production occurs only up to the stocking level). The
planned independent requirements result from demand program planning and
are used for planning expected sales quantities independent of orders.
But the stock and receipt won't be included in such check!!!

Difference between TOR & Availability check

Hi all,
what is difference between availability check & TOR?????
when i create sales order what TOR will do for the material & what availability check will do for the same material????? i hope my point is clear.
Pl dont paste configuration material .
Pt will rewarded accordingly

Dear Neil,
Before answering your question let me tell you that " pts will be rewarded " this word is against the forum rule, we all are here for helping each other and not for collecting "pts" .
now coming to your question, this is will tell you with an example of TAP and WATER. Till then TAP wont be Open Water wont come out from the TAP.
Similarly TOR and Availability check works. While creating the sales order the first thing is Requirement will pass to the MRP, i,e TOR will function. Then it will check the availability of the stock, means availability check will happen.
I hope its clear your doubt.
thanks,
Raja

What is the difference between the 4 options available while we activate a Legal Regulation

Hi All
Please help me to understand the difference between the below 4 options available while we activate a Legal Regulation
1.Check Dispatch (Exclusively)
2.Check Export (Exclusively)
3.Check Dispatch/Export (Excluding Domestic)
4.Check Dispatch/Export (Including Domestic)
Thanks
Akhil..

Hi Akhil,
Actually, there are three different business scenario's when we talk in terms of trade. These are as follows:-
1.Domestic Trade:- This is internal to a country and needs to adhere to only country's internal rules/regulations.
2.Dispatch:- It is cross border trade but withing an Economic Zone of the concerned country. Economic zone is an area or group of countries to promote trade between themselves for example EU. Dispatch is further subjected to cross border trade rules/regulations but also enjoys benefits of certain agreements.
3.Export:- When we talk in terms of cross border trade with a third country with whom we didn't have any trade relation/ agreements, that is known as an Export. Export is further subjected to more scutinisning by authorities when it is processed as compared to other's.
Hence, to conclude Domestic trade is internal trade(within the country) while Dispatch/Export is the cross border trade subjected to more rules and regulation and keeping these in mind ,business can take a desicion to use a legal regulation for any of your above mentioned 4 options.
Hope I answered your question.

Aman

My student has been using Lightroom 4 with Photoshop CS5 on her Mac for well over a year. Because of the difference between the Camera raw version available to her in Photoshop CS5 and the raw process in Lightroom 4, she has been exporting her raw images

Any ideas?

My student has been using Lightroom 4 with Photoshop CS5 on her Mac for well over a year. Because of the difference between the Camera raw version available to her in Photoshop CS5 and the raw process in Lightroom 4, she has been exporting her raw images from Lightroom and choosing the "Render using Lightroom option when it popped up in the dialogue box. She has been doing this for over a year and a half without any problem. Today when she hit Command E no dialogue box appeared and the image just opened in Photoshop. I'm concerned that all of her Lightroom edits are not being rendered to Photoshop. Anyone have an idea as to how we can get the "Render using Lightroom" dialogue back?

What is the difference between the iPhoto that came pre-downloaded on my MacBook and the iPhoto available for download on the App Store?

I have had my MacBook for 5 years and ever since upgrading to the new system which added the App Store to my computer, I have been curious about the difference between the iPhoto that came pre-downloaded when I purchased my computer 5 years ago and the iPhoto available for purchase on the App Store. What makes the iPhoto from the App Store so different that I have to pay $15 for it, when I already have it for free on my computer?

Lots and lots of new features - and since you have upgraded to Mavericks much better operation
For information on what has changed there are many. many reviews on the web as well os a writup on the App store recapping the new features of the latest version vs the previous version
as to your choice - totally personal - do or don't - you choose - it does no involve anyone here in any way

CE 7.1 Trial - Differences between the versions

Hi there,
I would like to check out the new BPM Feature within the NetWeaver CE, but I'm a little confused about all the different versions available. There is a CE 7.1 Trial SP 3, CE 7.1 Trial SP 5 and a CE 7.1 Trial EHP 1...
Whats the current Version and what are the differences between the Version?
Does anyone know if ther will be a 64 Bit Version available soon?
EDIT:
Another question just occurred to me.... The installation guide says the system requirement is Windows XP SP2 (or higher). Does anyone have experience using the Trial with Windows 2008 (32bit)?
thx in advance

Difference between the PI 7.1 and PI 7.0

Hello all,
Please kindly give the differences between the PI7.1 and PI7.0.
Please don't mention the features of new PI 7.1as I already know the features and enhancements.
I need the differences between the version with comparing the their features.

Hello Babu,
a)The message server and the enqueue server can be separated from the central instance (CI) to the ABAP SAP Central Services Instance (ASCS) in the ABAP stack
also (recommended)
In SAP NetWeaver 7.1 ,Only ASCS is supported
b)SAP has changed the signatures of the relevant Java classes,So in these cases the Java coding effort should only be "mere syntax check".
And...
1. PI 7.0 is the part of Netweaver 2004s and PI 7.1 is key entity in eSOA.
2. PI 7.1 have various mapping Enhancements as well as reusability of UDFs across the mappings etc. which is not available in PI 7.0
3. PI 7.1 comes with the concept of folders for more flexibale and Organized way of developements.
4.Advanced adapter engine is used in PI 7.1, which have overcome the various communication related limitations of previous versions
5.High Volume support in PI 7.1

What'z the difference between the Commercial Invoices and

What'z the difference between the Commercial Invoices and
Invoices/Excise Invoices? Also I understand that we can combine 2~3
invoices and can create one commercial invoice? If it is possible, how
to create the same?
cheers
shalsa007....

Hello,
A commercial invoice is a bill for the goods from the seller to the buyer. Commercial invoices are utilized by customs officials to determine the value of the goods in order to assess customs duties and taxes.
In general there is no standard form for a commercial invoice although they tend to contain many of the following features:
     seller's contact information
     buyer's contact information
     consignee's contact information (if it is different from the buyers)
     invoice date
     a unique invoice number
     sales terms (usually in incoterm format)
     payment terms
     currency of sale
     full quantities and description of merchandise (Generally this includes unit price and total price. Product descriptions should be consistent with the buyer's purchase order. Including the Harmonized System commodity codes can be helpful, especially in countries that are WTO members.)
Excise invoice Original for Buyer copy, whether prices are inclusive or exclusive of excise duty.
The invoice in which the Excise duties are included.
As per Indian tax system, Excise duty (16%) is payable by each manufacturing unit on the value of manufactured goods / on the value added. The manufacturing plant is supposed to submit an excise duty report on fortnightly / monthly basis. Various registers (RG1, RG23A, RG23C, PLA) are maintained for that purpose, which record all the transactions including movement of goods, cenvat credit available and cash balance available.
In SAP, we use transaction j1id for configuration and j1iin, j2i7, j1i5, j2i5, j2i6, j1ip for creating, extracting and printing excise invoice.

PM Order settlements - Difference between the amounts settled

Hi All,
This is regarding the PM Order settlements.
Every month end finance team run KO8G and settle the PM Order costs for that period (month). In the process the Orders are settled using a variant, which captures all the orders that has changed/created during the focused period.
But in the report S_ALR_87013015 - List: Actual Debit/Credit there are balances for previous settlements and thereu2019s a difference between the amount settled and the debit/credit amounts.
When drilling gown we found that this is due to following reasons,
1. Some orders are not settled fully.
2. Equipments issued against a Order are returned after the settlement process
Ex: one Order has settled in Oct 2008 initially and fully in Jan 2009. However one material has been returned to stores in February 2009. Therefore a difference (cost of the material) between total actual cost (Dr Amount) and settled amount has been arisen.
The Orders of nature 1 will be captured and settled in the subsequent run of KO8G.
But my question is how can we address the orders of nature 2? Changing the settlement variant is one option.
Also appreciate if someone can explain the SAP-best practice of PM-Order settlements.
Thanks,
Thushantha.

Hi Thushantha,
After returning the material to store check the actual cost of maintenance order. Once you fully settle the order means it becomes zero.
When you will return material to warehouse against maintenance order once again carry out settlement of maintenanc order then check for your nature 2.

I am trying to check the last date (i.e. max date) and also check the penultimate date (i.e. the second to the last date). And then find the difference between the two (i.e. last date minus penultimate
date).
I would like to do that for each of the companies listed in Table 2: Tickers. I am able to do it for just one company (MSFT) using the queries below:
SELECT
[First] = MIN(ExDate),
[Last] = MAX(ExDate),
[Diff] = DATEDIFF(DAY, MIN(ExDate), MAX(ExDate))
FROM (
SELECT TOP 2 Dividends.ExDate
FROM Dividends, Tickers
WHERE Dividends.symId=Tickers.symId
AND Tickers.Symbol='MSFT'
ORDER BY ExDate DESC
) AS X
Outputs the following result:
First
Last
Diff
2012-11-13
2013-02-19
98
But what I would like instead is to be able to output something like this:
Symbol
First
Last
Diff
MSFT
2012-11-13
2013-02-19
98

Can anyone please let me know what do I need to add on my query in order to achieve the desired output?

TS3899 Why is the number of e-mails higher on my iPhone than in my e-mail when I log into it on my computer? The difference between the 2 keeps climbing.

Why is the number of e-mails higher on my iPhone than in my e-mail when I log into it from my computer? And how do I fix it? The number keeps climbing on my phone, making the difference between the two greater.

You're welcome.
In order to have the account's Sent mailbox synchronized with the server with the Mail.app on your Mac and with the iPhone's Mail application, you must store the account's Sent mailbox on the server with each. The same applies to the account's Drafts and Trash mailboxes.
With store sent messages on the server deselected for the account preferences with the Mail.app on your Mac, create an "On My Mac" location mailbox. At the Mail.app menu bar go to Mailbox and select New Mailbox. Choose On My Mac for the mailbox location - which will be stored locally on your computer's hard drive and enter a name for the mailbox. You can name this mailbox MobileMe Sent. Select OK to create the mailbox, which will be available under "On My Mac" in the Mail.app mailboxes drawer.
Select your MobileMe Sent mailbox. Select a sent message in the mailbox and at the menu bar go to Edit and choose Select All. Follow this - at the Mail.app menu bar go to Message and select Move To and then select the new On My Mac location mailbox in the window provided. This will move all messages from the account's locally stored sent mailbox to the newly created On My Mac location mailbox. When this transfer has been completed, re-select store sent messages on the server for the account preferences.
Now do the same with the newly created On My Mac location mailbox where all sent messages were transferred to. Select a message in the mailbox and at the menu bar go to Edit > Select All. At the menu bar go to Message > Move To and select your MobileMe account's server stored Sent mailbox under Sent in the window provided. This will transfer all messages stored locally on your computer's hard drive from the newly created "On My Mac" location mailbox to the account's server stored Sent mailbox. These messages will no be available when accessing the account with the iPhone's Mail application.

What is the difference between the 4th generation ipad and the ipad 3 with retnia display?

What is the difference between the 4th generation iPad and the "New iPad with retina display"? i don't quite understand. are they stilll the same size or would i have to get a different case?

The 3rd and 4th generation iPads are the same size. The 4 has a faster processor, and a little better iSight camera for FaceTime. The 4 also has the lightning connector so your old cable will not work with the iPad 4.
You should always check with the manufacturer of the case to see if it will fit. You can probably do that on the manufacturers website.
This might be of some interest to you.
