hi gurus
i want to know the difference between varient configuration and super bom??
i think as per my knowledge it is same.
but my friend says  both are different.

hi,
Variant Configuration : You do not need to create a separate material for each variant of a product in your company. You can use one configurable material to cover all variants. You create a super BOM and a super routing for this material, containing all the components and operations for producing all variants of the product.
Super BOM : The bill of material (BOM) of a configurable material contains all the components that are required to manufacture the material. The BOM contains components that are only used in specific variants (variant parts), as well as components that are used in all variants (non-variable parts).
<b>This is why BOMs for configurable materials are known as super BOMs.</b>
Thanks

    Hello,
    Can anyone tell me the difference between Disk:0 and Sup-bootflash. Where does the IOS boot from by default Disk:0 or Sup-bootflash. Can you configure 6509 Switch to boot the IOS from whaterver flash you want Disk:0 or Sup-bootflash?
    Any Suggestions.
    Thanks,

    Disk:0 (and Disk:1, on the sups that support it) is an accessible CF slot.  Sup-bootflash is an internal flash for the SP.  With native mode, it's not used.  Bootflash is an internal flash used by the RP.
    Default booting, usually uses the internal flash, on many of the later native IOSs, this can be overridden by IOS boot statements.
    Older sup720s internal bootflash isn't large enough for the later IOS images so you're forced to boot from the external flash.  (I work with quite a few of these.  Often we keep an older IOS image on the internal bootflash so if someone pulls the CF, we have something to bring a sup720 on, although it may not recognize later line cards.)
    Later sup720s have had their internal flash upgraded (to use an CF).  The larger internal flash has been renamed to bootflash.  BTW, there's also an upgrade kit to replace the older internal RP bootflash with a CF.
    Besides the boot commands in an IOS image, the config-register also controls booting.  If a sup720 just boots into ROMMOM, you can select different media/IOS images to boot from.  Also BTW, there's different versions of the ROMMOM, which have some impact on how a sup720 can boot its IOS.

  • Difference between component configuration and application configuration in webdynpro

    what is the difference between component configuration and application configuration in webdynpro?

    Hi Rohit,
    With the component configuration, you can control the behavior of each individual component within a Web Dynpro application or the user interface of individual views. For each component, several records of configuration data can be created.
    Using the application configuration, it is now possible to assign the configuration required in the current application to all the components used.
    In short : Component Config belongs to WDP Component and Appl'n Config. belongs to WDP Appl'n.

  • Difference between RSP-720 and SUP-720 on 7600

    Hi all,
    I wonder what's the big difference between RSP-720 and SUP-720. both have almost the same feature set, performance and also same price. Anyone can explain in detail?
    This can also be applied to difference between 6500 and 7600 and narrow difference between routers and switches these days.

    There are tons of differences between the RSP and the SUP 720.
    http://www.cisco.com/en/US/prod/collateral/routers/ps368/product_data_sheet0900aecd8057f3b6.html
    Look @ the " Hardware Enhancements over Supervisor Engine 720" section
    The 6500 and 7600 are diverging in terms of software release support on 12.2(33)SX* for 6500 and 12.2(33)SR* for 7600 which means the feature sets will be diametrically opposite.
    E.g. VSS on Cat6k's is not available on 7600's

  • Difference between Variant Configuration and iPPE

    Dear All,
               Can anybody tell me the difference between the Variant Configuration and iPPE(Integrated Process and Product Engineering).
    Thanks,
    Rajesh.

    Hai Rajesh
    The SAP standard system have the following user profiles:
    S_ASTACT (Process Structure)
    Part of the S_PPEALL profile; calls up a process structure as an application tree in the detail area of the iPPE Workbench Professional.
    S_ASTCMP (Product Structure)
    Part of the S_PPEALL profile; calls up a product structure as an application tree in the detail area of the iPPE Workbench Professional.
    while creating the user profile - settings for relationship , model definition . environment , reports.
    u can try using the Process and Product profile in IDES as I am exploring on iPPE.
    is this iPPE scenario going to use in SAP PS or in cProjects.
    ENJOY SAP PS.

  • CF Installations :Key differnces between Multiserver configuration and J2EE Configuration

    Hi,
    Can anyone give the important differences between Multiserver
    configuration and J2EE Configuration installations?..

    Hello Dalibor,
    While the service account user object has Use DES selected it would appear your user session is still sending the AS Java an RC4 service ticket.  This might occur if your user had requested a service ticket before Use DES was selected, or before that setting had replicated to the appropriate domain controller.  The fix might be as simple and logging out and logging back in now that some time has passed.
    You could also download the Microsoft kerbtray utility and inspect the service ticket enc type to validate this.  kerbtray can also be used to clear old tickets and is generally useful for troubleshooting this kind of thing.
    Thanks!

  • The difference between system restore and last good known configuration

    hi,
    what is the difference between system restore  and last good known configuration.
    in which situation you use system restore ,and in which situation you use last good known configuration.
    very short answer wil be enough.
    thanks
    johan
    h.david

    Last Known Good Configuration deals only with Starting Windows eg. a bad registry or incorrect driver is preventing Windows to start.It recovers the registry settings of HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet
    While System Restore uses restore points to return your system files and settings to an earlier point in time without affecting personal files. Restore points are created automatically every week, and just before significant system events, such as the installation
    of a program or device driver. You can also create a restore point manually.You can undone system restore but there is no such option in Last Known Good Configuration.
    Last Known Good Configuration is disabled in Windows 8 or,Windows 8.1 by default.
    Try using Last Known Good Configuration if you can't start Windows, but it started correctly the last time you turned on the computer.
    Try using System Restore to return the system to an earlier point in time when things worked correctly.

  • Difference between Free goods and BOM (ERLA)

    Hi,
    Could any body throw some light on the Difference between Free goods and BOM(ERLA) to clarify my weired thought.
    AS of what i know is Free goods is 1:1 ratio.
    The main item will be prices and sub item will be free .
    Than same thing is also With BOM (ERLA)
    Regards,
    Venksys

    Hi Venksys
    Please note as given below :
    Free Goods : This function allows you to offer your customers a product free of charge in the form of free goods when a certain quantity of products is ordered. Free goods is a kind of quantity discount, and is granted in the form of a goods delivery that is free of charge when a certain quantity is purchased. There are Two types of free goods :
    1.Inclusive : The customer only pays for part of the goods ordered. The rest of the products are provided at no extra cost. For example, a customer orders  for 3 bottels but pays for 2 bottels  and 1 is supplied free .
    2.Exclusive - The customer pays for the goods ordered, and also receives additional products for free. The materials delivered as free goods will not be the same as that of ordered onces. For examples customer orders 5 bottels , but will receive 1 Bottle opener free.
    BOM : It consists  of 2 or more items combined and sold as an package : Example : Combination of 1 Tooth paste  + 1 tooth brush  packed as BOM.
    The Higher level Material ( BOM) is  not relevant for pricing but relevant for picking : The tooth paste and brush is relevant for pricing  and also can be sold independently : The Item cat group of the Header BOM material will be ERLA  and for Tooth paste and brush material the Item category group will have TAN.

  • Is there any actual difference between Release, Debug and Debug Local configurations in SSRS project?

    Is there any actual difference between Release, Debug and Debug Local configurations in SSRS project?
    For example in VC++ Debug build would have all optimization turned off (by default) and included additional Debug information in executable.
    Since there is no executable produced for SSRS - is there any actual difference between configurations? Or are they only for the purpose of deploying to different destination servers?

    Hi JoeSchmoe115,
    The Project Configuration and Configuration Manager is a feature supported by Visual Studio, on which Business Intelligence Development Studio or SQL Server Data Tools is based. We can use Configuration Manager to create and manage sets of project properties
    in project configurations. You are right that the project configurations is only for deployment purpose in a Report Server project.

  • Difference between repetative manufacturing and discreate manufacturing

    Hi,
    Guru's
    What is the difference between repetative manufacturing and discreate manufacturing in product costing.

    Dear Manish,
    Repetitive Manufacturing 
    In repetitive manufacturing, master plans are typically created on a period and quantity basis (reduction in individual lot and
    order-specific processing). A quantity of one product is manufactured over a certain period. The product is processed in a constant flow and interim products are generally not stocked. In repetitive manufacturing, you usually find that the effort required for production control is significantly less than is required for single lot and order-based production control and the recording of actual data is kept simpler. Repetitive manufacturing can be used for various industries, such as the
    consumer packaged goods industry, the electronic industry, packaging industry, for example.
    You can use Repetitive Manufacturing purely for make-to-stock production, or in a sales order-oriented environment, such as found in the automotive industry.
    Discrete Manufacturing
    Discrete manufacturing is characterized by requirements that occur on an irregular basis and a workshop-oriented process.
    The Discrete Manufacturing scenario can be used in different variants, production by lot size, make-to-order production and assembly processing. The variants differ mainly in the type of planning conducted before-hand and in the relation to the sales order. Production by lot size is identified by the grouping of requirements into lots during requirements planning, and by planning with existing basic data. Production by lot size is independent of a particular sales order. Make-to-order production describes the production of a material with reference to a particular sales order. The manufactured quantities are managed, in terms of stock, directly for the individual sales order. They cannot be exchanged with the stock of other sales orders. Starting from the sales order, single-item planning can be allowed as far down the bill of material (BOM) structure as you like. Assemblies and
    components can also be procured for the sales order that generates the requirements, and managed in stock for this sales order. If the product is a configurable product, the system chooses a variant for the customer based on the characteristics that he or she selects. A sales order BOM can then be generated for the sales order. This BOM is used to produce the product.
    Assembly processing is a form of make-to-order production, in which the production order (assembly order) is created together with the sales order. In assembly processing the components for the product have, in general, already been produced. They only need to be assembled. The advantage of assembly processing is that an availability check is carried out for the components when you create the sales order. This increases the reliability with which dates can be confirmed
    considerably. Changes to the sales order are automatically also made in the production order and vice-versa.
    And also you can follow the below link to know more about REPITITIVE MANUFACTURING its a pdf document from help.sap.com
    http://help.sap.com/printdocu/core/print46c/en/data/pdf/PPREM/PPREM.pdf
    One More Example
    Repetive is usually a continuos flow, good example is making 5000 tv dinners you know how long it takes to make qty1 very little defects or fall out and you always have everything on hand to start the run, you may also make the same run 2-3 times per month so a cost collector is ok all cost go to top level.
    Discreet, You do have falls out reworks and move into production missing materials, long lead time its essential to know what and where it is at in production, cost may vary a little but each production order will be costed independantly for review.
    Best Regards
    Mir

    Appriciate help.
    Tom

    Thanks for marking thread useful.
    Class 300 and 200 are both defined for the materials.class 300 is mainly used for a variant material used for variant configurartion.We can also classify materials under class 200 which do not have to be configurable materials.But allows to use the defined characteristics and restrict the usage for a specific purpose..
    Please check below threads

  • What is the difference between Topic Keywords and Index File Keywords?

    What is the difference between Topic Keywords and Index File Keywords? Any advantages to using one over the other? Do they appear differently in the generated index?
    RH9.0.2.271
    I'm using Webhelp

    Hi there
    When you create a RoboHelp project you end up with many different ancillary files that are used to store different bits of information. Many of these files bear the name you assigned to the project at the time you created it. The index file has the project name and it ends with a .HHK file extension. (HHK meaning HTML Help Keywords)
    Generally, unless you change RoboHelp's settings, you add keywords to this file and associate topics to the keywords via the Index pod. At the time you compile a CHM or generate other types of output, the file is consulted and the index is built.
    As I said earlier, the default is to add keywords to the Index file until you configure RoboHelp to add the keywords to the topics themselves. Once you change this, any keyword added will become a META tag in the topic code. If your keyword is BOFFO, the META tag would look like this:
    <meta name="MS-HKWD" content="BOFFO" />
    When the help is compiled or generated, the Index (.HHK) file is consulted as normal, but any topics containing keywords added in this manner are also added to the Index you end up with. From the appearance perspective, the end user woudn't know the difference or be able to tell. Heck, if all you ever did was interact with the Index pod, you, as an author wouldn't know either. Well, other than the fact that the icons appear differently.
    Operationally, keywords added to the topics themselves may hold an advantage in that if you were to import these topics into other projects, the Index keywords would already be present.
    Hopefully this helps... Rick
