DIfference Between User Exits, Screen Exits, Menu Exits And BADI

Could any one let me know the exact/practical dIfference Between User Exits, Screen Exits, Menu Exits And BADI. ? And why BADIs are more proned to use?

Hi,
User Exits:
A user exit is a three character code that instructs the system to access a program during system processing.
SXX: S is for standard exits that are delivered by SAP. XX represents the 2-digit exit number.
UXX: U is for user exits that are defined by the user. XX represents the 2-digit exit number
Menu Exits:
Menu exits add items to the pulldown menus in standard SAP applications. You can use these menu items to call up your own screens or to trigger entire add-on applications.
SAP creates menu exits by defining special menu items in the Menu Painter. These special entries have function codes that begin with "+" (a plus sign). You specify the menu items text when activating the item in an add-on project.
Screen Exits:
Screen exits add fields to screens in R/3 applications. SAP creates screen exits by placing special subscreen areas on a standard R/3 screen and calling a customer subscreen from the standard screens flow logic.
BADIs:
Business Add-Ins are a new SAP enhancement technique based on ABAP Objects. They can be inserted into the SAP System to accommodate user requirements too specific to be included in the standard delivery. Since specific industries often require special functions, SAP allows you to predefine these points in your software.
And why BADIs are more proned to use?
In contrast to above customer exits, Business Add-Ins no longer assume a two-level infrastructure (SAP and customer solutions), but instead allow for a multi-level system landscape (SAP, partner, and customer solutions, as well as country versions, industry solutions, and the like). Definitions and implementations of Business Add-Ins can be created at each level within such a system infrastructure.
SAP guarantees the upward compatibility of all Business Add-In interfaces. Release upgrades do not affect enhancement calls from within the standard software nor do they affect the validity of call interfaces. You do not have to register Business Add-Ins in SSCR.
The Business Add-In enhancement technique differentiates between enhancements that can only be implemented once and enhancements that can be used actively by any number of customers at the same time. In addition, Business Add-Ins can be defined according to filter values. This allows you to control add-in implementation and make it dependent on specific criteria (on a specific Country value, for example).
All ABAP sources, screens, GUIs, and table interfaces created using this enhancement technique are defined in a manner that allows customers to include their own enhancements in the standard. A single Business Add-In contains all of the interfaces necessary to implement a specific task.
The actual program code is enhanced using ABAP Objects. In order to better understand the programming techniques behind the Business Add-In enhancement concept, SAP recommends reading the section on ABAP Objects.

What is difference between User Exits and BAPI

hello sap gurus
what is difference between User Exits and BAPIs

http://www.sap-img.com/abap/what-is-user-exits.htm
www.****************
Where as this customer exits are again divided into:
1. Menu Exits.
2. Field Exits.
3. Screen Exits.
4. Function module exits.
These all the things comes under Enhancements.
User exits
1.A user exit is a three character code that instructs the system to access a program during system processing.SXX: S is for standard exits that are delivered by SAP.
XX represents the 2-digit exit number.UXX: U is for user exits that are defined by the user. XX represents the 2-digit exit number
2.USER EXITS are FORMS and are called by SAP standard programs
using PERFORM.
3.Inside the form (user exit) you can read and change almost
any global data from host program.
4. User exits are more flexible because you have more information to use in your code but on the other hand , it is very easy to manipulate erroneously global data and lead the standard program to a dump or even to make database inconsistent.
5.While changing User-exit,Access Key is required,
BAPI is nothing function module but which is remote enabled, means you can access this fm through other SAP or non-SAP system by assingning to business object,which we can crea in SWO1 transaction.

Hi,
User exit - A user exit is a three character code that instructs the system to access a program during system processing.
SXX: S is for standard exits that are delivered by SAP. XX represents the 2-digit exit number.
UXX: U is for user exits that are defined by the user. XX represents the 2-digit exit number
Customer exit - The R/3 enhancement concept allows you to add your own functionality to SAPs standard business applications without having to modify the original applications. SAP creates customer exits for specific programs, screens, and menus within standard R/3 applications. These exits do not contain any functionality. Instead, the customer exits act as hooks. You can hang your own add-on functionality onto these hooks. *-- Mani
The following document is about exits in SAP :-
The R/3 enhancement concept allows you to add your own functionality to SAPs standard business applications without having to modify the original applications.
SAP creates user exits for specific programs, screens, and menus within standard R/3 applications. These exits do not contain any functionality. Instead, the customer exits act as hooks. You can hang your own add-on functionality onto these hooks.
Types of Exits
There are several different types of user exits. Each of these exits acts as hooks where you can attach or "hang" your own add-ons.
Menu Exits
Menu exits add items to the pulldown menus in standard SAP applications. You can use these menu items to call up your own screens or to trigger entire add-on applications.
SAP creates menu exits by defining special menu items in the Menu Painter. These special entries have function codes that begin with "+" (a plus sign). You specify the menu items text when activating the item in an add-on project.
Screen Exits
Screen exits add fields to screens in R/3 applications. SAP creates screen exits by placing special subscreen areas on a standard R/3 screen and calling a customer subscreen from the standard screens flow logic.
Function Module Exits
Function module exits add functions to R/3 applications. Function module exits play a role in both menu and screen exits.
When you add a new menu item to a standard pull down menu, you use a function module exit to define the actions that should take place once your menu is activated.
Function module exits also control the data flow between standard programs and screen exit fields. SAP application developers create function module exits by writing calls to customer functions into the source code of standard R/3 programs.
These calls have the following syntax:
CALL CUSTOMER-FUNCTION 001.
Field Exits
Field exits allow you to create your own programming logic for any data element in the Dictionary. You can use this logic to carry out checks, conversions, or business-related processing for any screen field. Example: The data element BBBNR identifies a companys international location number. You might want to set up your R/3 System so that all international location numbers are larger than 100.
The field exit concept lets you create a special function module that contains this logic.
You assign the special function module to the data element BBBNR. You then assign the module to any programs and screens in which users can add new international location numbers. When you activate your field exit, the system automatically triggers your special routine whenever a user enters a company location number.

Difference Between BADI and User Exits
Business Add-Ins are a new SAP enhancement technique based on ABAP Objects. They can be inserted into the SAP System to accommodate user requirements too specific to be included in the standard delivery. Since specific industries often require special functions, SAP allows you to predefine these points in your software.
As with customer exits two different views are available:
In the definition view, an application programmer predefines exit points in a source that allow specific industry sectors, partners, and customers to attach additional software to standard SAP source code without having to modify the original object.
In the implementation view, the users of Business Add-Ins can customize the logic they need or use a standard logic if one is available.
In contrast to customer exits, Business Add-Ins no longer assume a two-level infrastructure (SAP and customer solutions), but instead allow for a multi-level system landscape (SAP, partner, and customer solutions, as well as country versions, industry solutions, and the like). Definitions and implementations of Business Add-Ins can be created at each level within such a system infrastructure.

What is difference between badi and user-exists?
What is difference between enhancements and user-exists? and what is the full form of BADI?
I have another doubt in BDC IN BDC WE HAVE MSEGCALL (i did not remember the > correct name) where the error logs are stored, MSEGCALL is a table or structure.
What is the system landscape?
1) Difference between BADI and USER-EXIT.
i) BADI's can be used any number of times, where as USER-EXITS can be used only one time.
Ex:- if your assigning a USER-EXIT to a project in (CMOD), then you can not assign the same to other project.
ii) BADI's are oops based.
2) About 'BDCMSGCOLL' it is a structure. Used for finding error records.
3) Full form of BADI 'Business addins'.
3) System land scape will be depends on your project
Ex:- 'Development server'>'Quality server'-> 'Production server'......

Difference between user exists customer exists

difference between user exists customer exists

Hi,
User exits are basically modifications done to the std. pgm
for whic u need to have access code,this is not reccomended
in sap as during upgradation none of the mod. will come thru.
   In contrast customer exits are enhancements done to the
std pgm in the space provided by sap so that during
upgrading versions this also will be available.
    Customer exits types
     Function exits, Field exits(absolete), screen exits.
There isn't much difference between the two. CMOD user exits allow greater control, and have a manageable, trackable framework - it's easy to see what's in use and what isn't. A customer exit is a type of user exit. A user exit is a handle that SAP put into their code, allowing a customer to add their own routines.
User exit - A user exit is a three character code that instructs the system to access a program during system processing.
SXX: S is for standard exits that are delivered by SAP.   XX represents the 2-digit exit number.
UXX: U is for user exits that are defined by the user. XX represents the 2-digit exit number

Difference between At selection-screen and At selection-screen field

I need to know the difference between
Difference between At selection-screen and At selection-screen field
Regards
Shashi

Hi,
AT SELECTION-SCREEN is the event triggered in the PAI of the selection screen.
AT SELECTION-SCREEN on field field_name is the event specific to the field and is triggered when u press enter in that field.
AT SELECTION-SCREEN selscreen_event.
Effect
This statement defines event blocks for different events selscreen_event that are triggered by the ABAP runtime environment during selection screen processing.
Selection screen events occur immediately before sending a selection screen and after certain user actions on a displayed selection screen. They assist in selection screen processing in the ABAP program.
AT SELECTION-SCREEN is triggered at least twice during actions on selection screens that are linked into another selection screen as a subscreen - first for the linked selection screen itself, and then for the linking selection screens.
SELECTION-SCREEN FIELD SELECTION
FOR {NODE|TABLE} node [ID id].
Effect
This statement defines a node node in the structure of the logical database for field selection. If a node belongs to type T, you can use the TABLE addition instead of NODE. The statement cannot be used for type C nodes. .
If a node is defined for field selection, you can use an executable program linked to the logical database in the GET statement to control which fields in the node are to be read by the logical database. If you use the function module LDB_PROCESS, the FIELD_SELECTION parameter must be specified accordingly.

What is the difference between the passcode on my iPhone 5 and a password? I am locked out of my phone.

What is the difference between the passcode on my iPhone 5 and a password? I am locked out of my phone.

Not entirely sure what you are asking, but a passcode to unlock an iOS device is normally 4 digits long (so is a 4 digit code), though you can make it alphanumeric and longer (so effectively becomes a password).
If you don't know the passcode to unlock your phone or it's showing the disabled screen then there are instructions on this page for how to reset a device : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1212 - you should then be able to restore/resync your content to it.

How to measure time difference between zero crossing of a sine wave and rise time of a pulse on a same graph?

I have a 50Hz sine wave and a pulse signal on a same graph. The phase difference between two is between 0-90 degrees.
Now I need to calculate the time difference between (when the sine wave crosses zero volts) and (when the pulse rises). The frequency will stay approximately same for both signals.
The application is for a three phase generator. In simple words, when the time difference between the zero-crossing of sine wave and the pulse rises increases, that means that the load on the generator has increases.
I am a beginner user of LabView (version 9, 2009), maybe it is a very simple problem but I've been pulling my hair out for the last few days and coudln't figure anything out. Any help would be greatly appreciated. I am using DAQ USB-6008 to measure these voltages and pulse from the generator and a sensor
I have attached a jpg (a graph that i just made with excel to explain). The time 't' is what I am trying to measure
Cheers

Solved!
Go to Solution.

Hi
Thanks for the code but I'm afraid it won't work. Like you said the probability of choosing a value that is on both graphs may not happen. This is something that I would like the code to do automatically.
But I did use the previous code posted and made some modifications to it and it seems to work perfectly. Now the next thing is to be able to get just that one value that tells you the first time difference.
Here is what I get using that code.
As you can see from the t Values. I only need the one that is highlighted. If there is a way to filter out the rest it would be great.
I was thinking of a while loop and as soon as the value is higher than 3E-5 it would store the number and stop the loop, but I'm not too familiar with arrays in labview.
Here is the the code modified.
As you can see, it wasn't that big of a modification and it still is your code.
I will keep trying.
Thanks for the help

Difference between Hyperion version 11.1.1.3 and epm 11.1.2.1

Hi,
Can anybody suggest me the difference between Hyperion version 11.1.1.3 and EPM 11.1.2.1?
Thanks In Advance

Take a look at the “Installation and Configuration Guide.”
log file..start the server and see the log file
The 11.1.2.1 release also includes new features for upgrading from previous versions. There are several new utilities and enhancements to make the upgrade process easier. You will see some of these new features during the configuration of the various products
Apart from diffrance
Ima not sure y Windows 2008 support in Hyperion 11.1.2 brought with it a host of new challenges..(atleast to make copyrighted windows copys now onwards lol)
Windows 2008 introduced a new feature called User Access Control (UAC). while installing person need to have admin privillage other wise it HELL (nightmare ) and some unexpectedly problematic issues though security is good but .................
Have a read on this
oracle-hyperion-epm-system-certific-131801.xls(google u will get it) at least u get some idea what are new hardware req and software reqs
Some Support answers as well

Difference between Hyperion Financial Reporting version 7.0 and 9.3.1 ?

Hi All,
Can you please difine Difference between Hyperion Financial Reporting version 7.0 and 9.3.1 ?

I migrated from 7.5 to 9.3.1 a couple years back so hopefully this is somewhat helpful.
From a developer perspective, the report designer itself looks about the same. The most annoying changes for me were that they started migrating functionality AWAY from the client program and to the web. For instance, managing security is a pain as it is done through Workspace and it is a bit clunkly. I also ran into some issues where my old report's security information is not visible in Workspace. It is still 'working', but when you view report properties, it shows nothing for who has assigned security. Also, things like deleting/moving reports and creating folders are done through workspace and not the client program. "Copying" can be done through the client program by using "Save As" functionality.
There is a migration tool to move your old stuff to 9.3.1. It seemed to work OK; however, the User Interface was a bit screwy. For instance, it said I was 138% complete when it finished. It copied more reports than it showed as existing.... :)
On the back end, things changed quite a bit. In the older Financial Reports, the report objects existing in a single database table and if you wanted to, you could extract everything from that table. In 9.3.1, part of the information is in Workspace database (i.e. Report names/ID's, security access, hierarchy) and the actual report file itself is stored in a psedo-filesystem under the RM webapp. The names are not user friendly at all and you'll need to XREF from the database to make sense of it. When you finally find the actual report "file", they are compressed/encrypted.
From an end user perspective, things pretty much work the same way as always.

What's the exact difference between "Query Def. Filter Value Selection" and

Hi Gurus,
what's the exact difference between "Query Def. Filter Value Selection" and "Query Execution Filter Val. Selectn" in info-object's "Business explorer" tab?
I found out that if my info-object A has a input-ready variable in a query,after the query running,in the selection screen,my info-object A's F4 value is follow the setting of "Query Execution Filter Val. Selectn",as the setting of "Query Def. Filter Value Selection" I tried every diff setting, it won't effect my query anyway.
so:
1.what's the exact difference between "Query Def. Filter Value Selection" and "Query Execution Filter Val. Selectn" in info-object's "Business explorer" tab?
2.how they effect query's presentation?
I searched forum,didn't find the answer what I want.
Thanks everyone.

Hi Denny,
I will try to explain it again.
Query Def. Filter Value Selection : Let say the value is set to "Only Values in Infoprovider"
Lets take an example infoobject - 0MATERIAL (Material)
Total material records in material Master = 1000 (master Data table /BI0/PMATERIAL)
You create a query on top of an Infoprovider using Material.
Total unique materials in Infoprovider= 500.
Now when you are in design mode in Query Designer, and you try to restrict Material by few materials (for e.g. 1, 2, and 3), for this you right click on material and select Restrict, the pop-up opens with list of materials, this list is all those 500 materials which are in the infoprovider, because the setting is "Only Values in Infoprovider". Which means then when you are trying to restrict a characterstic in query definition the list of values displayed for restricition is derived from Infoprovider.
Query Execution Filter Value Selection - I think you already know what it is , its the read mode for F4 help selection.
I hope this helps.
Thanks

Differences between Oracle Forms 11.1.1.6 and 11.1.2

Hello !
Which version should I choose 11.1.2 or 11.1.1.6
11.1.2 must me the latest one aka 11gR2
11.1.1.6 must be 11gR1 PS5
Am i right ?
but in the forms home page it seems that the 11.1.1.6 is the latest version ??
Oracle Forms 11.1.1.6 Released
The latest version of Oracle Forms (11.1.1.6) has been released.
This can be downloaded from My Oracle Support (MOS)
23-Feb-2012
Oracle Forms 11g Release 2 has been released. Read about the new features.
Oct-2011
I suppose that in a MiddleWare stack : SOA suite + BI publisher + Forms, the 11.1.1.6 (11gR1 PS5) is the best choice.
Can somebody explain me the differences between Oracle Forms 11.1.1.6 and 11.1.2 ?

One important thing to note is that FMw 11.1.2 (11gR2) does not include Portal or Discover. So if you need either or both of these you will need to stick with 11.1.1.Hi Michael,
One of the features which is very very important in my point of view is
Reduced Installation Footprint
In order to reduce the resource requirements on development machines, you can perform an
installation specifically tailored for development. This will limit the number of software products
and servers installed on the machine whilst still allowing a developer to build, run and test their
Forms application.
If this feature is only available for the 11.1.2 release then the choice is made !
Thanks !
