Difference between Time dimension and product(regular) dimenstion

Hi All,
I would like to know what is the difference between time dimenstiona and regular dimenstion. How can we differentiate and how Oracle bi server knows a dimension
as Time dimenstion.
Thanks,

Hi,
By using Logical Dimensional Structure and chronological keys it identify time or other types of dim.
Just double clik time dimension then you can find the
root type (Time, Ragged and skipped) and for the chronological keys > just double click logical level then select keys tab -- here u can find chronological keys
Thanks

  • Difference between Plannnig Horizon and Production Horizon

    Hai Can somebody explain me the difference between "Planning Horizon and Production Horizon"?
    Here is the text that led me to this question:
    "If the <b>Production Horizon</b> of SNP is smaller than <b>PP/DS horizon</b>, the <b>planning horizons</b> of SNP and PP/Ds overlap with each other." In this horizon, SNP determines the receipts with most cost effective sources of supply and lot sizes and PP/DS receipts generated by SNP in more detail.

    check the following entries in Product master
    The SNP production horizon is maintained on the SNP 2 tab page in the product master (transaction /SAPAPO/MAT1).
    It also appears in the PPDS tab page along with PPDS horizon
    The PPDS Planning horizon and PPDS Production horizon are the same. PPDs only plans inside this Horizon.
    What is outside the SNP production Horiozon lies in the SNP planning horizon. Actually thought the name is a bit misleading - SNP does not plan anything inside the production horizon.
    If you do not enter a value or you enter the duration 0 for the PP/DS horizon, the system automatically uses the SNP production horizon as the PP/DS horizon during planning. Therefore, the PP/DS horizon is exactly the same length as the SNP production horizon and this means that the SNP and PP/DS planning periods follow on from each other seamlessly and without overlapping.
    If the SNP production horizon is smaller than the PP/DS horizon, the planning horizons of SNP and PP/DS overlap. SNP and PP/DS can both use this overlapping period for planning.
    A gap between the end of the PP/DS horizon and the start of the SNP planning period is a time segment that is neither planned by PP/DS nor SNP. This can lead to inconsistencies.
    So think of two lines - one with its right side shaded(PPDS) and the other with its left side(SNP) shaded. Depending on where you place these lines the shaded sections get planned. how you get the two regions to mesh will ensure the effectivity of your plan
    you can also get a better understanding looking at the product view screen and changing the product master values for the horizons and running heuristics

  • Difference between Time Management and Time Evaluation

    Hello
    Is there any Difference between Time Management and Time Evaluation? if yes, then what is it? I guess there's no diff, time evaluation is a report..
    please advice
    Thanks

    Hi Charlene,
    Time management can be divided into 3 steps
    1.Time Recording
    2.Time Evaluation
    3. Planning
    Time Evaluation :
    The recorded time data is grouped and converted to wage types which can be used by payroll for compensation.SAP provides a time evaluation program RPTIME00 for this purpose.
    Standard schemas TM00 and TM04 are used for evaluation of time data got from positive and negative time recording approaches.
    time evaluation program RPTIME00 also calculates accrual and entitlement for employees.

  • Difference between process order and Production order

    Hi Experts,
    Can any buddy tell me the difference between process order and production order. Why process order is used for process industries. Why do we use recipe for it and routing for production order ?
    Regards,
    Amit

    Hi Amit
    There is a difference between production order and process order.
    Supposing a 10,000 lit tank is being manufactured in discrete manufacturing. You have to follow the necessary routing steps and can make by physically seeing its development stage by stage. For this type production you can have a production order.
    In case of process of order if some chemical in a reactor is loaded with intial temp of 30 C and need to be heated to 80 C then there is phase change. Hence we use Heating as an operation and the change of temp is phase. For such type of process we process order.
    Hope this is useful. Pl reward.

  • Difference between Timer.stop() and Timer.reset()?

    Hello,
    What is the difference between Timer.stop() and Timer.reset()
    functions because it seems that the 2 functions do the same thing?
    I image Timer.stop() to stop the timer and when Timer.start() is
    called the timer starts from where it stopped. For example, if I
    have a 3 sec. timer (3000 ms). If I stop the timer after 2.5 sec.
    and start the timer again, I would expect the timer to expire/trip
    within .5 sec. Is this a correct assumption?
    Thanks,

    Hello,
    Here is a better description of what I am trying to do and
    the problem I encountered.
    I am developing an application that plays multiple sound
    files at different time offsets. For example, snd1 starts at time
    offset 0 and snd2 starts at time offset 5000 ms (5 sec). I have
    created a timer for each sound file and enabled the handlers via
    addEventListener() function. I encounter a problem after the timer
    has been stopped (Stop button pressed) before the timer expires.
    When the user presses the Play Button, the timer seems to be reset
    because the onTimerComplete() function is triggered after an
    additional 5000 ms (5 sec). Is this normal behavior? If this is not
    the correct behavior, is there a workaround Any help would be
    appreciated.
    I have created a small application in Flash CS3 that depicts
    the problem with just a single sound file. I have Flash Player
    9.0.124.0 installed. Sample code is above.
    Thanks,
    Nilang

  • What's the Difference between Time Capsule and OS X Server?

    The only thing i know is that both of them can share and backup files among different computers.
    is that correct?
    I'm still not quite understanding the exact functions of them
    so your help and explanation will be highly appreciated.!!
    Thanks!

    Did i do something to cast your anger upon me o mighty Camelot, backed up bypterobyte?
    Not at all, Mark - at least not in my case. I'm sorry if it came over that way. I was just saying that there's a slew of differences between Time Capsule and Mac OS X Server - it's almost unfair to put them in the same bucket.
    Yes, Mac OS X Server can act as a backup destination for Time Machine clients, but it can also do a lot more than that. To be fair, it wasn't clear from the original post whether the focus was on backups alone (in which case the two are reasonably similar), but my point was that Mac OS X Server is a whole different animal. It's like comparing a Smart Car and an RV - both will get you from point A to point B, but the RV has bathroom, shower, beds, satellite TV, a kitchen, etc.

  • AppID during application update and Difference between app id and product id

    Hi
    I understand once a app is in store it has a associated Appid. How does this differs from the product id?
    During each app update does the product id's should be same?
    or during the store certification process will the appid and the product ids be mapped?
    How does the product id and App id differ if this is not the case?
    Can you provide some article which actually explains what is the difference between XAP uploaded and xap after certification?
    Regards
    Varun
    Varun Ravindranath Please 'Mark as Answer' if my post answers your question and 'Vote as Helpful' if it helps you.

    Hi
    In that case the dev account from which the update is done will have the unique id or  appid  and the appid or the product id mapping will be always done by the store certification process.
    I'm not clear on this part whether the developer who does the update of the app should update the id or the process which does the certification of the app as an update will update automatically do it?.

  • Differences between infrastructure dba and production dba

    Hi DBAs,
    I have graduated and interested in heading into dba path.
    I heard there's 2 kind of dba, infrastrucrue dba and production dba. can anyone advise what's the differences as i'm new to working society?
    heard that the infrastructure dbas are actually task to setup the database infrastructure in r&d environment and tested it before deploying it to production site through raising instructions for production dba to do it. Most of the their time is commited to co-ordinate project between the application team and production team.
    please advise.
    thanks

    Infrastructure is the same as a development DBA sort of.....
    But Infrastructure sort of Architects the system too. Think of a RAC system. He might recommend the RAC, design the interconnects, decide what storage and HBA's to use. You get the idea.
    Production is the one who gets pages when the system goes down. They generally maintain the system day to day and apply patches, setup backups etc...

  • Behaviour's difference between Time Capsule and Airport Extreme + Ext HDD ?

    Hello !
    I would like to know if there is any behaviour's difference between a Time Capsule and an Airport Extreme base station + External HDD ? For instance, once Time Machine configured, have I to mount manually the drive connected to the Airport Extreme to trigger the backup ? Or once my wifi is up, TIme Machine detects the Airport Extreme base station, the hard disk, and triggers the backup ?
    Regards,
    Mr Lejeune

    Theoretically there is no difference between the two. In reality there are two differences. First, Apple does not officially support Time Machine backups on a drive connected to the AEBS. If you run into technical difficulties you'll get no help from AppleCare techs nor from an Apple genius. Second, my experience suggests that it is a fragile backup backup system. My wife is using a TC at work whilst I have a base station and hard drive connected to it at home. Both of us have MacBooks, have the same software, and have the same basic habits. In a three month period I experienced frequent stalled backups - the last one fatal. After numerous attempts to get the backup going again I was forced to format the drive and start over. When I started over, having verified that the backup was working again, I abandoned TM and began backing up wirelessly using ChronoSync. My wife had fewer stalled backups (not none, but fewer) and thus far, nearly a year later, she has never had to format and start over.
    In theory, wireless backup with TM is a great idea but its execution presently leave something to be desired. Frankly, while I am using TM to backup to a tethered hard drive and I'm beginning to trust it despite being a version 1 product, I wouldn't rely on TC and TM as my sole backup scheme.

  • What's the difference between Application ID and Product ID for WP App?

    Anyone know what's the difference between the Application ID on Marketplace and the
    Product ID in WMAppManifest.xml?  Can I get the Application ID before I sumbit the app to Marketplace? Thank you.

    Hello the ApplicationID is the ProductID on the WMAppManifest.xml, when you create a new project, a generic
    ProductID is assigned to your app, and once you send your app to the store, the generic
    ProductID is replaced with a new one (which will be assigned permanently to your app
    unless you do a new App Submission, which means each update will have that same ID). AFAIK once your app is certified you'll get the ApplicationID, you can send it and publish it manually, so you could
    have the AppID before people start downloading the app.
    (if you need the AppID for testing IAP, you may want to try sending your App as a Beta version)
    I hope it helps
    Yassine,
    Now I think I understand them, thank you!

  • Difference between Material Repository and Product Repository

    Hi Guys,
    Can you please explain the difference between the Product Repository and Material Repository.
    Thanks,
    Sandy.

    Hello,
    The MDM Products repository is structured to maintain the "sell- side" of the organization, meaning these are the products that the organization sells.
    The MDM Material repository, however, is structured to maintain the "buy- side" of the organization, meaning these are the raw materials that the organization buys in order to produce/ manufacture its products.
    These differences are also seen in the schema -the data elements that are maintained for each repository.

  • Differences between Time Capsule and Airport Extreme re Time Machine?

    We are [told|http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=2299608] that a "USB drive connected to a recent dual-band Airport Extreme may work as a destination for Time Machine backups," but that "... it's not supported by Apple."
    With regard to Time Machine, what are the relevant differences between a Time Capsule and an Airport Extreme acting as a USB disk server, e.g. protocol used, size limits, server limitations, etc.?

    +We are told that a "USB drive connected to a recent dual-band Airport Extreme may work as a destination for Time Machine backups," but that "... it's not supported by Apple."+
    A bit of clarification. For the record, Apple says that you cannot do this in this Support Document. I haven't seen a similar document for Snow Leopard, but I'm sure it's out there. You will receive no assistance from Apple in the event of any problems.
    Despite this, some users have tried this anyway. Some report success, others report some success and yet others report no success. We've also seen a number of recent posts from users who say that it worked for them for a time...several weeks to several months...but they are now experiencing problems.
    Having experienced the latter myself first hand, my opinion would be that it would be unwise to even consider Time Machine backups with the AirPort Extreme unless you have another backup strategy already in place.
    The Time Capsule was designed to work with Time Machine backups. The AirPort Extreme was not. The answer may be that simple.

  • Difference between Time Machine and Backup

    Besides the fact that to backup more than 100MB of data using Apple's Backup software you have to have a .Mac membership, what is the difference or pros and cons of using Time Machine vs. Backup for restoring lost or damaged files to their original location? Which one is easier and better for this or are they the same? Time Machine you can go back to a previous system state in case a newly installed item has created an issue, but can't you do the same thing by just uninstalling the item?

    Time Machine and Apple's "Backup" are actually quite different. "Backup" creates archives which you can't read directly, and allows you to backup to optical media and online .Mac iDisk, as well as hard disks. You create "plans" for various folders or types of data that you want to backup, such as your Personal Settings, Documents, Photos, entire iLife, whatever. "Backup" typically makes an initial full backup and then does incremental backups after that for speed.
    Time Machine you would typically use to backup your entire drive, and it saves files that are directly-readable. It doesn't backup to optical media like DVDs or to the iDisk.
    The two apps are actually complimentary. You should backup your iTunes, iPhotos, etc to optical media periodically and save these disks off-site, like in a safe-deposit box. If want to keep your Personal Settings, Keychains, etc handy on a USB flash drive you can do that with "Backup" too. Backup allows you to set up custom backup plans that work for you. You can choose how often you want to backup to various destinations.
    It is also good to use a cloner that makes bootable clones as well, such as SuperDuper! or CCC, so that you can restart immediately from the clone if your main drive won't boot.
    I use all 3 methods, and actually used all 3 methods to restore my system just yesterday (after learning that the Leopard Graphics Update causes 12" Powerbooks to crash whenever attempting to use the DVD Player.app). I recloned my internal drive from bootable SuperDuper! backup that I had made before the Leopard Graphics Update (and then reapplied the 10.5.2 Combo and iLifeSupport), used Time Machine to restore more recent files, and then "Backup" to restore recent Keychain changes.

  • Difference between "Times" font and "Times New Roman"

    I see these fonts right next to each other, and I am wondering if there are any differences.

    I see these fonts right next to each other, and I am wondering if there are any differences.
    Ah, the history of type wars in the twentieth century.
    In the nineteen-twenties when Stanley Morison became typographic consultant to Monotype Corporation, newspapers were still printed with nineteenth century types where the verticals are thick and the horisontals are very, very thin in emulation of copper plate printing.
    Morison famously fought The Times over the legibility of its printing type, and was invited to design and develop a different form of printing type that would stand up to production with flatbed assembly, stereotyping (10% condensing after cooling) onto curved half-cylinders, and high speed presswork with thin inks and thin unmoistened and uncoated paper.
    Morison looked to the printing types of the seventeenth and eighteenth century. With these types one can make an optical trick, because the bown (the counter) is asymmetric and the stress is diagonal and not vertical. This makes the type look broad, even if in fact it is condensed, a trick Matthew Carter later used at Linotype to develop Olympian as replacement for Corona.
    Morison had Victor Lardent at the drawing department of The Times prepare the large scale masters, differently dimensioned for different printing sizes. From these masters, electro-mechanical pantographic routers in turn made the metal manufacturing masters for machine casting and machine composition with Monotype systems.
    The Times was composed in two machine composition systems at the same time, Monotype for titling and Linotype for body copy. Therefore, the new printing type was also manufactured for Linotype composition, that is, for solid line slug casting in addition to single letter sort casting for Monotype composition.
    During World War II, the Monotype works at Salfords in Surrey manufactured machine gun parts in addition to composing machine parts. Meanwhile, in the United States, the Mergenthaler Linotype company applied for a patent on the Times printing type and was granted the United States patent in the North American market.
    Linotype and Monotype first converted to photo-mechanical composition in the nineteen-sixties and then to electro-photographic composition in the first half of the nineteen-seventies and to electronic composition for laser imagesetting with early page description languages and raster image processors in the second half of the nineteen-seventies.
    In this process, the paper masters for metal casting machines were modified in the process of making masters for the new media. Linotype Times was modified for electro-photographic reproduction by Walter Tracy of the Linotype office in London. Walter Tracy's work became the source of the Linotype Times licenced for the Apple LaserWriter in late 1984.
    Linotype had licenced Dr Peter Karow's type production tool, Ikarus, which was the first to implement type as outlines to be populated with picture elements by the raster image processor instead type as patterns of picture elements painted by the type production team in advance of rasterisation. Dr Karow's outline technology was then converted to Dr Warnock's outline technology for PostScript.
    The first conversion to PostScript suffered from shortcomings, and was subsequently redone. Linotype in the first half of the nineteen-eighties was selling Linotronic imagesetters into the rapidly rising market for PostScript offset printing, with the Linotype Adobe Type 1 Library as the preferred type library for the new production platform.
    Monotype entered into a licence agreement with Adobe in late 1988, and in 1989 the bottom went out of the type market when Apple and Microsoft announced the TrueType Alliance with the promise of publishing a free TrueType Specification, Adobe announced that that the Adobe Type 1 specification would be published, Sun Microsystems acquired Folio and announced that the Sun F3 font format would be available, and Agfa acquired Compugraphic after which Agfa-Compugraphic contracted with Hewlett-Packard to provide the Agfa-Compugraphic Intellifont technology for the Hewlett-Packard Printer Control Language page description language.
    Apple developed TrueType 1 with Linotype Times and Linotype Helvetica as models for gridfitting the same as Linotype Times and Linotype Helvetica had been developed as models for Adobe Type 1 gridfitting. Microsoft did not have the rights to Linotype Times and Linotype Helvetic, so Microsoft approached Monotype for comparable core fonts. Monotype then developed Times (New) Roman for TrueType, and a close match for Linotype Helvetica, Monotype Arial (named after the spirit in Shakespeare's The Tempest?).
    Linotype Times, Monotype Times New Roman, Linotype Helvetica, and Monotype Arial are the four type faces that have attracted most engineering attention in the development of technologies to automatically fit an outline to a raster grid.
