Difference between types of plan data

Hi Friends,
BPS
1. Cost Center Planning: Costs and Allocations
2. Cost Center Planning: Activity Type Prices
3. Cost Center Planning: Cost Center/Activity Type Prices
4. Cost Center Planning: Cost Driver
For the above types of data, I like to understand what is the difference them.
For type 1, I understand it is for primary costs.
For type 2 and 3 they are related / same type of data. So what is the difference between them?
For type 3, seems like combo of types 1 and 2.
For type 4, I am not sure what it is about.
Questions I have:
1. Why is it only primary costs. Where is secondary costs?
2. Type 1 costs is identified by cost elements of costs centers. But type 2 is by activity, quantity and rates ( i think). And costs calculated. So, is this type of cost outside the cost calculation of type 1 such that to get wholistic cost picture, need to add types 1 and 2 at least? Thus, are they mutually exclusive.
3. Now, how does the same apply to type 4?
4. What is the purpose of type 3?
Hope you could advise me friends
Regards
Michael

Hello Michael,
Different types of CO planning relate to how an organization is using SAP Controlling functionalities. Activity represent typically internal labor/machine provided by one department (cost center) to a production order, project network etc. depending on the type of organization (production activities or project-driven operation etc.). Activity price would set per cost center for time of periods (months), representing standard price for valuation of actitivities.
More CO documentation attached:

Difference between DEclaring Itab with DATA & TYpe Statement?

HI Friends,
What is the Difference between Declaring Itab with DATA & TYpe Statement?

Hi,
The Statements TYPES and DATA
Each ABAP program define its own data types using the statement.
TYPES dtype TYPE type ...
and declare its own variables or instance attributes of classes using the statement
DATA var {TYPE type} ...
Within the program or a class, you can also define local data types and variables within procedures. Local variables in procedures obscure identically-named variables in the main program or class.
When creating data types and data objects, there are a number of naming convention that also apply for other local program definitions, such as procedures. These are described in detail in the keyword documentation.
The Additions TYPE and LIKE
The additions TYPE type and LIKE dobj are used in various ABAP statements. The additions can have various meanings, depending on the syntax and context.
·        Definition of local types in a program
·        Declaration of data objects
·        Dynamic creation of data objects
·        Specification of the type of formal parameters in subroutines
·        Specification of the type of formal parameters in methods
·        Specification of the type of field symbols
TYPES: BEGIN OF struct,
         number_1 TYPE i,
         number_2 TYPE p DECIMALS 2,
       END OF struct.
DATA: wa_struct TYPE struct,
       number    LIKE wa_struct-number_2,
       date      LIKE sy-datum,
       time      TYPE t,
       text      TYPE string,
       company   TYPE s_carr_id.
This example declares variables with reference to the internal type STRUCT in the program, a component of an existing data object wa_struct, the predefined data object SY-DATUM, the predefined ABAP type t and STRING, and the data element S_CARR_ID from the ABAP Dictionary.
Reward Points if found helpfull..

Difference between 0FI_AP_30 and 0FI_AP_4 Data source

HI,
What is the difference between 0FI_AP_30 and 0FI_AP_4 Data source.
Thanks in advance

Hi,
In addition to above differences. Below is the functional difference between 0FI_AP_30 & 0FI_AP_4:
0FI_AP_4 gives you accounts payable line items in your report. Here GL account shows the balances of particular types of vendors/payables to which that particular GL account is been assigned.
And If subledger is activated in ECC, then by using 0FI_AP_30 you can get the break up of that particular GL balance according to vendors.
To make use of datasource 0FI_AP_30, subledger accounting must be activated in ECC.

What are the differences between Essbase and Planning?

What are the differences between Essbase and Planning?

Planning is an enterprise application built around the Essbase OLAP engine.
You can create planning applications with Essbase only, but Planning uses best practises and has built-in enterprise features.

Without Data Guard Broker:
http://www.oracle.com/pls/db112/to_toc?pathname=server.112/e17022/toc.htm
With Data Guard Broker:
http://www.oracle.com/pls/db112/to_toc?pathname=server.112/e17023/toc.htm
See especially why you want to use the broker:
http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E11882_01/server.112/e17023/concepts.htm#i1013106
In short: You should have a good reason if you do not use the broker, because it is the officially recommended way to maintain Data Guard. It is even required for some features like Fast-Start Failover.

Difference between relational integrity and data intigrity

hi
could anybody tell me
what is the difference between
relational integrity and data intigrity
tahnx
kals.

hi,
Data Integrity
Data integrity means, in part, that you can correctly and consistently navigate and manipulate the tables in the database. There are two basic rules to ensure data integrity; entity integrity and referential integrity.
The entity integrity rule states that the value of the primary key can never be a null value (a null value is one that has no value and is not the same as a blank). Because a primary key is used to identify a unique row in a relational table, its value must always be specified and should never be unknown. The integrity rule requires that insert, update, and delete operations maintain the uniqueness and existence of all primary keys.
The referential integrity rule states that if a relational table has a foreign key, then every value of the foreign key must either be null or match the values in the relational table in which that foreign key is a primary key.
What is a Relational Integrity?
A relational database contains tables of data which are related to each other. For example, articles are related to the author who wrote them, and conversely, authors are related to the articles they wrote. (Sounds obvious, and it is.) That's the relational part.
When we work with a relational database, we naturally expect that data in related tables stay related. For example, articles written by MartinB should always be related to MartinB and never be confused with articles written by any other author. That's the integrity part.
Relational Integrity is also called Referential Integrity, perhaps because the mechanism for ensuring integrity is implemented by the way the tables reference each other. Both terms are okay with me. I usually just say RI anyway.

Sourabh

Difference between passive and active data connection mode for FTP

Hi,
Does any body have the idea of passive and active data connection mode for the transport protocol FTP.
I have one server with FTP, I have to pick the data from this FTP to XI.
What is the difference between active and passive data connection? Does XI supports both the connections?
Thanks & Regards
Katta Mohan Reddy

Hi
According to SAP Note - 821267
Q: Does the File Adapter support active data connections when connecting to an FTP server?
A: Up to and including SP14, the File Adapter exclusively uses passive data connections. Starting with SP15, active connections will be available.
Difference between active and passive,
You can definitely refer to the site mentioned by Suraj

Difference between type lvc_t_fcat and slis_t_fieldcat_alv

Can you tell me the difference between type lvc_t_fcat and slis_t_fieldcat_alv?
Both are used for field catalogue so which one is better to use?

Hi,
the field catalog using lvc_t_fcat has some better and enhanced features over the old slis_t_fieldcat_alv.
Ideally when displayed a normal ALV using these fieldcatalogs does not have any difference...
You can more enhanced features of ALV using lvc_t_fcat but these cannot be done using slis_t_fieldcat_alv
For using lvc_t_fcat, you require a screen and a container area...
Based on the requirement, use the fieldcatalogs.
Also slis_t_fieldcat_alv does not have any classes or methods but the other has so..(objecct oriented)

Hello Everybody,
Could anyone please tell me the difference between below two declarations:
Field-symbols: <lv_first> type any,
<lv_second> type data.
Edited by: Matt on Nov 6, 2008 1:34 PM

I will tell you where you can find the details;
1) Goto Tcode ABAPHELP ,enter "TYPE DATA" in the keyword and press ok,
2) In the Appearing list double click on the data, built-in generic type under sub-node ABAP Environment.

Difference between "Database Variant To Data" and "Variant To Data"

Can anyone tell me the differnce between the 2 VI's "Database Variant To Data" and "Variant To Data"?
I am using the database connectivity toolset and making a query.
I have tried using both, but the give me the same result.
Attachments:
Variant to Data.JPG ‏45 KB

You won't see a difference between these two functions with just a string or other simple data types. Where you'll see a difference is with clusters and more complex data types that come from the database. The variants returned by databases can be slightly different than the standard variant. That is where the Database Variant To Data is needed. Otherwise, if you are just reading string information, either function will work fine.

Difference between SXPG_COMMAND_EXECUTE and Open data set mechanism

Can you please help me to know the difference between moving a file using FM "SXPG_COMMAND_EXECUTE" and moving file using "open data set - transfer file- close data set" mechanism?

Through 'SXPG_COMMAND_EXECUTE' u can execute a External command (ie.. UNIX /Windows/OS/400) In ABAP programming..
for Conversion Of Aplication server File/Move the file from one directory to Other...
The Command must be present in SM69.
Using this function module'SXPG_COMMAND_EXECUTE' , you can check the authorization of a user to execute a particular external command and run the command:
With the arguments specified in ADDITIONAL_PARAMETERS
On the target host system defined by OPERATINGSYSTEM and TARGETSYSTEM
If an SAP profile parameter is inserted in the portion of the command stored in the database, then the value of this parameter is substituted into the command. If an SAP application server is active on the target system (TARGETSYSTEM), then the profile parameter values are read from the profile that is active on that system. No parameter substitution is made in ADDITIONAL_PARAMETERS.
After substitution, the command is checked for the presence of "dangerous" characters such as the semicolon ( ; ) on UNIX systems.
If an additional "security function module" is specified in the command definition, this function module is also called in the course of processingebenfalls. This function module can prevent execution of the command.
If the authorization checks complete successfully, the command is run on the target host system.
Through Open Data Set u can read and write the file in the same directory...
Thnaks,
SD

Practical Differences between types of routines....

Hi ,
Which are the practical differences between :
1) a function so as to return a value/data set....
2) a procedure which defines an OUT parameter so as to return a value/data set....Thanks ,
Simon

Performance is another aspect that at times can play a role.
A function passes a value from one stack to another stack - reference by value. This means the result of the function is copied from the function's stack to the caller's stack when the function terminates and its stack is popped.
A procedure can use reference by name (pointers). In this case the output of the procedure's parameter is written directly into the variable of the caller. No copying.
When the parameter is large (think CLOBs for example), a function returning a CLOB can be significantly slower that a procedure with a IN OUT NOCOPY CLOB parameter.

Capturing the difference between Actual and planned time

Hii...
I have created and released a production order which contains 25 operations and qty: 3 nos. I have done operation confirmation for 0010 operation as 2.5 hours (where as planned time is 1.5 hours). I would like to know how to get a report which can show the difference between actual & planned times.
And also I would like to know the operation time 1.5 hours which entered ny me was for operation of 1 number qty or its for 3 quantities.
Best regards,
Haneesh R

if you maintained in routing 1 qty = 1.5 hrs, when you create production order qty 3 = 3 * 1.5 hrs so total 4.5 hrs for that operation 0010 to completed
