  • Differences between SEM BCS and SAP BPC

    Hello All,
    Can you please let me know the differences between SEM BCS and SAP BPC. What I know is SEM BCS is an SAP product for Financial Consolidation (Legal and Management). SAP BPC is the new product taken over from Outlooksoft. It also features the consolidationa and planning functionalities. Can you please suggest which is a better product.
    Regards
    Vikram

    There is nothing like better or worse product.
    BCS has some strong features like consolidation monitor, investment consolidation and for most consolidation functions, configuration is very easy. In BPC, you may have to write scripts.
    BCS has BW as the backbone  where for BPC 5.1 there is none. Howveer, in  BPC 7.0, the BPC will rest on BI and things will be much better.

  • What's the difference between old SAP appraisal system and the new SAP appraisal system?

    Hi Experts,
    What's the difference between old SAP appraisal system and the new SAP appraisal system?
    Can anyone shed some light please.
    Thanks.

    emgr_update no longer sets or gets the thesaurus from workbench. In 11 all workbench configurations are saved in IFCR configuration directly.
    Hence the thesaurus entry should be added directly in version 11 Workbench as opposed to xml file in older versions.
    And if you want to migrate the changes across environments then import_site script in control directory can be used.

  • Difference between the SAP Mobile Infrastructure and SAP NW MOBILE7.1

    Hello everyone, could you tell me what's the difference between the SAP Mobile Infrastructure http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/a7/893a5889e08b41b615688b1a93b559/frameset.htm and SAP NETWEAVER MOBILE 7.1 http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/nw-mobile-tools;jsessionid=(J2EE3417800)ID0940784850DB22002277755496926773End ? I have to develop a mobile application and I have studied the MDK 2.5 here http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/index?rid=/library/uuid/21eba3a7-0601-0010-b982-92f1fca3258a&overridelayout=true ,  but now I have come to doubt whether I have done well to study MDK 2.5 for my purpose.

    Hi,
    We have this answer in many other threads..
    Mobile infrastructure (MI 2.5 / MI 7.0) is the older release of mobile.The latest version of mobile is NW Mobile 7.1 which comes with a total architectural change, provides better scalability and has advantages in many other areas like better modeling, monitoring options , faster device synchronization time etc.
    Netweaver mobile constitutes of server (DOE) and a default client framework (Netweaver mobile client) .
    Mobile application could be created using NetweaverDeveloper Studio(NWDS) that will present the data required by the mobile device user.
    This mobile application once deployed on a device will work on the local persistency and during synchronization with DOE sends the modified/new data to Backend via DOE.
    Customers can also develop a custom client framework and application that still talks to DOE (and inturn to backend)
    NW mobile 7.1 could be used to build mobile applications suiting offline and onlines scenarios.
    In few words to mobilize enterprise solutions
    SAP R/3 will act as backend
    ---talks to DOE through remote enabled BAPI Wrappers ---
    NW mobile will be middleware that does the data orchestration
    Upon Synchronization of mobile device with DOE using a messaging protocol over http(s)
    Receivers could be devices with client application installed / another server.

    Tags edited by: Michael Appleby

    Hi Nikunj,
    I would recommend going to http://scn.sap.com/community/mobile and reading the What is SAP Fiori UX? page with all of its links.  There is a wealth of information there on the whole topic of Fiori.
    X1 (aka Wave 1) is the first release of Fiori with 25 apps and a starting point referred to as Launchpage.
    X2 (aka Wave 2) is the second release.  It changed the starting point from Launchpage to Launchpad with some rather major changes in design, configuration, installation, and features.
    SAP FIORI FOR SAP ERP is a reference to applications created for use with SAP ERP (as opposed to SAP CRM, SAP SRM, etc.).

  • Differences between .profile,oraenv and dbhome files

    can anyone tell me the differences between .profile,oraenv and dbhome.
    database version is 10.2.0 and OS is solaris 10.
    I have set up the environment variables using .profile
    is the functionality of oraenva and dbhome same like .profile?

    Hello,
    oraenv and oracle home_
    The oraenv and coraenv utilities both aid in setting the Oracle environment on UNIX systems (other utilities exist on Windows platform that enable the Oracle Home to be set.) The coraenv utility is appropriate for the UNIX C Shell; oraenv should be used with either the Bourne or Korn shells.
    Database operations require the ORACLE_HOME to be set before the user may access the database. If ORACLE_HOME is not set, commands such as sqlplus, exp, or any other utility for that matter, will not be found.
    Both utilities are shell scripts that do the same thing in the different UNIX shells. They will prompt for a SID of the database unless ORAENV_ASK is set to N. The utility will also append the ORACLE_HOME value to the path, marking the location of the utility.
    The oraenv command will prompt for the SID of the database that you wish $ORACLE_HOME to access.
    $ . oraenv
    ORACLE_SID = [] ? ASG920
    The dbhome utility can now be used to verify that $ORACLE_HOME is correct.
    $ dbhome
    /usr/oracle/9.2.0
    The “dot space” part of the command is required to make the environment change with the parent shell, as opposed to entering a command without it which would only affect the subshell running that process.
    These commands can be used to avoid specifying the network service name when issuing commands. For instance, without using oraenv, a sqlplus command would look like:
    $ sqlplus system/manager@nameofservice as sysdba
    whereas after oraenv has been executed, the following command would work:
    $ sqlplus system/manager as sysdb
    The profile:_*
    The Profile file in your home directory is a collection of Korn shell commands that are executed whenever you login. Commonly, the Profile file is used to set environment variables and shell options. You can also put command aliases in your Profile file, but it's better to put them in a separate file -- commonly called .env (which is pronounced: dot-e-n-v)-- that you define and execute in your Profile (which is pronounced: dot-profile).
    This document briefly introduces environment variables, shell options, and aliases, and gives sample Profile and .env files.
    The commands in this document assume that you're using Korn shell, which is the default login shell on all the ACCC UNIX machines. Shell variables (like $PRINTER and $ENV, which are introduced below) are defined slightly differently in C shell. For example, to select the U-Print system as your default printer in csh you'd use the printer named uprint:
    PRINTER uprint
    setenv PRINTER

  • What is difference between sy-tabix and sy-index.

    SAP Seniors,
    Can you please let me know what is difference between sy-index and sy-tabix.
    I read the SAP help, it is confusing for me. it looks like both are same from help. please help me.
    Thank you
    Anitha.

    HI,
        Here is a brief description of difference between SY_TABIX and SY_INDEX and using them with several conditions.
    SY-TABIX
    Current line of an internal table. SY-TABIX is set by the statements below, but only for index tables. The field is either not set or is set to 0 for hashed tables.
    APPEND sets SY-TABIX to the index of the last line of the table, that is, it contains the overall number of entries in the table.
    COLLECT sets SY-TABIX to the index of the existing or inserted line in the table. If the table has the type HASHED TABLE, SY-TABIX is set to 0.
    LOOP AT sets SY-TABIX to the index of the current line at the beginning of each loop lass. At the end of the loop, SY-TABIX is reset to the value that it had before entering the loop. It is set to 0 if the table has the type HASHED TABLE.
    READ TABLE sets SY-TABIX to the index of the table line read. If you use a binary search, and the system does not find a line, SY-TABIX contains the total number of lines, or one more than the total number of lines. SY-INDEX is undefined if a linear search fails to return an entry.
    SEARCH <itab> FOR sets SY-TABIX to the index of the table line in which the search string is found.
    SY-INDEX
    In a DO or WHILE loop, SY-INDEX contains the number of loop passes including the current pass.
    Hope this helps.
    Thank you,
    Pavan.

  • What is difference between bex analyser and bex browser

    what is difference between bex analyser and bex browser . please explain what are use of both and what we do in both.

    hi
    Bex Browser
    The Business Explorer Browser (BEx Browser) makes it possible for you to access all document types of the Business Information Warehouse that are assigned to your role or that you have stored in your favorites. You can select and open documents assigned to you in the BEx Browser or store and manage new documents in the BEx Browser.
    Document types that you can work with in the BEx Browser are:
    · BW workbooks
    · Documents that are stored in the Business Document Service (BDS)
    · Links (references to file system, shortcuts)
    · Links to internet sites (URLs)
    · SAP transaction calls.
    · Web applications and Web templates
    · Crystal Reports
    Bex Analyser
    The Business Explorer Analyzer (BEx Analyzer) is the analysis and reporting tool of the Business Explorer that is embedded in Microsoft Excel.
    Features
    You can call up the BEx Query Designer in the BEx Analyzer, in order to define queries. Subsequently, you can analyze the selected InfoProvider data by navigation to the query created in the Query Designer and create different query views of the data. You can add the different query views for a query or for different queries to a work book and save them there. You can save the workbook in your favorites or in your role on the BW Server. You can also save the workbook locally on your computer.
    Beyond that, you can precalculate the workbook and distribute it by e-mail to recipeients or you can export it to the Enterprise Portal and make it accessible to other employees in the company.
    You can start queries in a standard view (with a Standard Web Template set up in Customizing) in the Web browser and forward the URL or continue to navigate on the Web. Similarly, you can export the Web query to MS Excel 2000.
    Overview of the Functional Area of the BEx Analyzer:
    ·        BEx toolbar
    You access the functions of the BEx Analyzer from the BEx toolbar, which takes you to the BEx Open dialog box where you can open existing queries, or to the BEx Query Designer where you can create new queries or change existing queries.
    ·        Evaluating Query Data
    The BEx Analyzer offers convenient functions for evaluating and presenting InfoProvider data interactively. In the BEx Analyzer, you can add queries to workbooks, navigate within them and refresh the data. You can also process the queries further in Microsoft Excel or display them in the Web browser in a default view.
    Navigation of a query allows you, for example, to filter characteristics on a single value, drilldown on all values for a characteristic, regroup characteristics and key figures in the rows and columns of the results area, or hide key figures. Navigation results in different views of the InfoProvider data. In addition, a range of further functions is available which allow you to edit a query interactively (for example, sorting, cumulated output, among others). In addition, you can use the editing functions in Microsoft Excel in order to set up individual format templates, to print results areas, or to create graphics.
    ·        Queries in Workbooks
    Queries are inserted into workbooks so you can display them. When you insert a query, a link is made between the cell areas of the worksheet and the data of the InfoProvider upon which the query is based. A link therefore exists between the Business Explorer and the Business Information Warehouse Server (BW Server).
    When inserting a query into the workbook, a VBA routine is automatically generated in the workbook. You can also connect the Business Explorer with your own VBA programs (Visual Basic for Applications).
    You can create workbook templates, into which you can insert your queries. Workbook templates can contain pre-determined items for the area of the query, formatting settings, logos, VBA macros, and so on.
    ·        Precalculating workbooks
    You can precalculate and distribute workbooks with the BEx Broadcaster, which is a Web application you get to form the BEx toolbar. The system generates MS Excel workbooks with historical data. You determine the time for precalculation yourself: You can have workbooks precalculated at a predefined time or they can be precalculated whenever data in the underlying InfoProvider changes. You can have the precalculated workbooks sent by e-mail or you can export them into the Enterprise Portal, where you can make them available to employees within your company.
    Activities
    To start the BEx Analyzer, choose Start ® Programs ® SAP Front-end Business Information Warehouse ® SAP Business Explorer Analyzer.
    You can also access the BEx Analyzer via SAP Easy Access ® SAP Business Information Warehouse ® SAP Menu ® Business Explorer ® Analyzer or in the Business Explorer Browser using the Business Explorer Analyzer symbol in the menu bar.
    Hope this will solve your issu

  • 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.

  • What is difference between bus.Area and plant

    dear experts, 
                what is difference between bus.Area and plant?
    thanks
    Rajakarthik.

    Hi
    Plant and Business Area are not the same.
    Business Areas are configured in FI module as per the Product lines or geographical operations basis.
    Where as The plants created in the logistics (General) module are assigned to the company code. That means all transactions taking place in the plants are posted to the attached company code in SAP FI.
    You can post a business area to several company codes and use it for cross-company-code reporting.
    The R/3 System uses a combination of plant and division to assign the relevant business area. When you use the R/3 System to automatically draw up accounts for business areas, you can assign only one business area to a combination of plant and division. Plants and divisions can be assigned and combined in several different ways.
