   If any comparison chart, it would be helfull.
Do reply asap.
Thanks in advance,

Hi Nilesh,
Looking at the image below, you will find out that ECC6 is under SAP ERP, and SAP ERP is under SAP Solution:
SAP solution is of a bigger element and ECC 6 is a component of it.

Using the Open Catalog Interface (OCI) between SAP-ECC 6.0 and SAP-MDM

Hello ASUG Community.
I'm working on an SAP-MDM project where we will configure the OCI interface between SAP-ECC 6.0 and SAP-MDM. The business requirement will be to punch out to SAP-MDM's catalog from SAP-ECC for expensed items (e.g., no material master record exists in SAP-ECC).
The data that will be returned to SAP-ECC will be purchase price info, material group, short text, & our global SAP-MDM item number.
The question I've been trying to design around is "where to store the SAP-MDM item number"?
I've looked into creating a custom filed on EKPO but now feel that a configured text field will be the best solution from an SAP-ECC point of view (less effort on the SAP-ECC side from a development perspective, no need to regenerate the EKPO table, etc.).
The question I'd like to pose to ASUG is.... Does anyone have experience or an opinion to offer using this functionality? It seems that I will have to code in a user exit or BAdi to insure that the SAP-MDM item numbers are returned to the appropriate text field on my POu2019s. Or can this be done using the standard OCI functionality?
I found OSS note 1347656 which references BADI "ME_CATALOG_INTERFACE" but I'm not sure if this right path to go down or if this would be the correct place to code non-conforming OCI mapping requiremetns.
Any insight would be most appreciated.
Thanks. Sincerely,
Rich Wortmann

I would suggest you create a new field for this as you may require thois going forward for reporting as well. Text fields are difficult to report.
Sorry not sure about the BADI to use.

Difference between 4.7, ECC 5.0 and 6.0

Hi
Can some one explain the basic difference beteween the latest three versions in SAP i.e., 4.7, ECC 5.0 and 6.0.
Regards
Venkat

HI
HI
There are so many differences between the version in different objects
I will explaint in two or more objects the differece
1 in the customer master in 4.6 version there is no partner function tab in the customer in xd01 tcode
and also there is no CIN tab in that vrsion
Re: differnce b/n 4.7 and ecc 6.0
but itis there in the 4.7 EE version
This is the major change from the 4.6cc to 4.7EE
2. in 4.7EE there is some settings that are related for CIN
which cannot be done in 4.7EE that means they need some patches for doing the configuration setting for the CIN
But we can do the same in the 6.0 version
These are the some ofthe settings that are differed in the two versions and in that two objects

A universe from SAP ECC 6.0 and SAP BW 7.3... Possible?

Hello,
We are looking to create one universe from two SAP data sources;
1) SAP ECC 6.0 with EHP5 and
2) SAP BW 7.3
Can this be done?
In UDT there is a SAP BW connection that can satisfy need for cubes but connection to ECC is a challenge.
I think it's possible in in CR 2011 but exploring webi options.
Any suggestion / work around ?.
Thanks,

Hi,
With Feature Pack 03 (ramp up registration open now, and RU starts ~16 March), you will be able to use IDT driver to access ECC (R/3) data. and generate a universe.
In the current, 4.0 SP02 Patch2.x codeline, you cannot do the above.
today, You can create a Multi Source-enabled Universe (UNX in IDT) for relational BW-SQL access to underlying BW table schema (by passing OLAP engine and all BEx semantic concepts.)
But - if you have the XI 3.1 Data Federator product already - then you can go from IDT, and use the DF XI3.1 as a datasource into a UNX universe.
I have not tried combining BW-SQL and DF 3.1 connections into a MSU universe.
Yes, using CR 2011, you can consume ECC.
I'd recommend joining ramp up (go via your account team) and evaluating the new features asap.

URL
https://websmp108.sap-ag.de/~sapidp/011000358700000210952005E
The course contents for both the certificatiosn are very similar. So I would like to know whats the difference between the two certifications and as an SAP basis administrator which one should I go for ?
Thanks.
Sandeep.

Hello Sandeep,
this forum is about software product certification and not consultant certification.

Difference between SAP ECC IDES 6.0 and SAP NetWeaver?

Hello everyone!
I am a bit confused since I am also new to SAP world, so I would to ask you, we have a SAP IDES ECC 6.0 in our server here to our company, I was trying to see a little of SAPUI5 and in a tutorial a guy was using SAP NetWeaver Visual Composer.
1- But, what's the difference between the SAP IDES ECC 6.0 and SAP NetWeaver?
2- What are the other parts I am missing? Are there any other IDES or such a thing around those terms?
3- How can I get installed SAP NetWeaver?
4- I have also got some info about SAP ERP, SAP CRM, SAP MM, SAP BW.. And those?
5- What are they in term of software/patch/ide/plugin/addon... ?
Please, I really need an overview in order to make all the things clear in my mind,
Thank you!
Denis

Hi Denis,
SAP is a big umbrella where lot of products are developed and made to use in various industry solution like Engineering, Chemical, Retail, Oil & Gas. I used the term Solution to relate SAP application to these solutions.
SAP NW is comprised of following components SAP_BASIS, SAP_ABA, PI_BASIS and SAP_BW. In totality we refer this as NW stack.
SAP application will have underlying database like Oracle, DB2, MSSQL or MaxDB where actual business data is stored.
Please check link Products | SAP to have more insight of SAP products ,services and offerings.
Hope this helps.

Difference between Data warehouse BO and SAP BO

Dear All,
can anyone let me know the difference b/n data warehosue Business Objects and SAP Business Objects.....and aslo can u suggest which is the better future among these two tools....
explaining in detailed view is highly appreciable!
Thanks & Regards,
V.Ravi Teja

Hello,
in the SAP BusinessObjects portfolio there is no solution for a DWH. A DWH is a DataStore based on a Database technology like Oracle. SAP BusinessObjects doesnt have its own Database. SAP BusinessObjects Tools support loads of Databases like Oracle, DB2, MS SQL etc.
What the SAP BusinessObjects portfolio has is an ETL tool to create a DWH - called "DataServices". Also there is a tool for creating a virtual DWH - called "Data Federator"
SAP has its own Datastore for a DWH - called "SAP Business Warehouse" (SAP BW)
Hope this helps.

Difference between ECC 6.0 and earlier versions

Hi,
one of the difference between ECC 6.0 and earlier versions is that instead 'WS_UPLOAD' and 'WS_DOWNLOAD' in ECC we should use 'GUI_UPLOAD' and 'GUI_DOWNLOAD' respectively.
(of course SPDD and SPRO tcodes is known by everone i suppose)
Similarly can u all put down some differences here, atleast one entry by each, I think we can make a good docu. I have searched the net for the differences but could not get much, so by each of us contributing one each, it would become good docu..for all of us.
Thanx in advance

Unicode Errors Encountered and their Solutions
E1. In u201CTEXT MODEu201D the u201CENCODINGu201D addition must be specified.
     Error:
     OPEN DATASET FILE FOR OUTPUT IN TEXT MODE.
     Solution:
     OPEN DATASET FILE FOR OUTPUT IN LEGACY TEXT MODE.
E2. In Unicode, DESCRIBE DISTANCE can only be used with the IN BYTE MODE or IN
      CHARACTER MODE addition.
     Error:
     DESCRIBE DISTANCE BETWEEN T_KOMK AND T_KOMK-HIEBO01 INTO BPOS.
     Solution:
DESCRIBE DISTANCE BETWEEN T_KOMK AND T_KOMK-HIENR01 INTO BPOS
IN CHARACTER MODE.
E3. u201CUSR02-UFLAGu201D must be a byte-type field (Typ X or XSTRING )
     Error:
     IF USR02-UFLAG O YULOCK.
     Solution: Since the data type of USR02-UFLAG is type INT and is compared with data type
                X u2013 Hence the error. So we define a new variable ZULOCK and assign the
                value of USR02-UFLAG to ZULOCK.
              New variable
              DATA: ZULOCK(1) TYPE X.   "APBRP00
              Assign value
                            ZULOCK = USR02-UFLAG.
        Compare -
               IF ZULOCK = YULOCK.   u201Creplace IF USR02-UFLAG O YULOCK.
E4. HT cannot be converted to a Character type field
Error :
WRITE ht TO t_data+10(2).
Solution : Since the data type of ht is a type u2018Xu2019 and the data is been transfer to
         t_data which has a data type u2018Cu2019. value of one data type cannot be copy to
         another data type where one of them is type string .Hence the error occur,
         so the data type of ht is been change to Type u2018Cu2019
     OR
           A Tab ( value 09 ) is introduced as part of the row. The value 09 is not converted in Unicode environment. Instead we need to use class
     Error:
          DATA: BEGIN OF ht,
               x(1) TYPE x VALUE '09',
          END OF ht.
     Solution:
              Define Class after the Tables definition.
                   CLASS cl_abap_char_utilities DEFINITION LOAD.
              Data Defination : Comment internal table HT and define a variable HT type C.
       *   Insert + APRIA00 05/02/2007 Unicode project
       *   DATA: BEGIN OF ht,
     *         x(1) TYPE x VALUE '09'
       *   END OF ht.
     *   Insert - APRIA00 05/02/2007 Unicode project
       DATA HT type C.
       Before using HT assign Horizontal tab.
                 Ht = CL_ABAP_CHAR_UTILITIES=>HORIZONTAL_TAB.
E5. In Unicode programs the u201C#u201D cannot appear in names, as it is does here in the name    u201C#LINESu201D
     Error :
     #LINES                 TYPE I,
     Solution : Since the # is used in the start of name, it is not allowed. We need to
              remove it.
     Solution for the above
     V_LINES                 TYPE I,
E6. In u201CTEXT MODEu201D the u201CENCODINGu201D addition must be specified as well as the addition was required FOR OUTPUT,FOR INPUT, FOR APPENDING OR FOR UPDATE was expected.
     Error:
     OPEN DATASET PATH_NAME IN TEXT MODE.
     Solution:
     Download =     OPEN DATASET PATH_NAME FOR OUTPUT IN LEGACY TEXT MODE.
     Upload        = OPEN DATASET AUSZUG-FILE IN TEXT MODE FOR INPUT ENCODING DEFAULT.
E7. u201CTABu201D must be a character-type data object( data type C,N, D, T or String). Field string)
     Error:
            data: begin of tab,                   "Excel Parameter Split at TAB
        t type x value '09',          "Tabulator
       end of tab.
            concatenate 'Material' 'Package Status'
                into z_download-line separated by tab.
            ( In the above command the two field are to be separated with a horizontal Tab. The earlier      way of assigning the tab value u201809u2019 will not work in Unicode environment.
     Solution:
     Define a class just after the Table defination.
          CLASS cl_abap_char_utilities DEFINITION LOAD.
            Define variable Tab as shown below :
          Data : TAB           TYPE C.
     Before the concatenate statement assign the value of Tab using pre-defined attributes.
          TAB = CL_ABAP_CHAR_UTILITIES=>HORIZONTAL_TAB.

Difference between SAP CRM Security and SAP ECC 6.0 security

Hi
I have extensively worked on SAP ECC security but haven't have chance to work on CRM Security.
Can anyone please let me know the difference between CRM security compared to ECC security.
Thanks...

I am sorry to say, but instead of giving the guy a decent answer you are starting a fight or discussion about stupid forum points...
really sad.....
The big difference between SAP ECC and SAP CRM Security (up to release 5.0) was the following:
1) For sure there are very different transaction codes in SAP CRM as compared to SAP ECC in the first place
2) If you are familiar with R/3 or ECC authorizations; then you know that already on transaction code level, the 'allowed activity' is controlled on tcode level , whereas in SAP CRM , in most cases the 'allowed activity is not controlled by the Transaction code, but on authorization object level....
E.g. transaction code BP allows you to create/change/display any type of Business Partner (e.g; sold-to/ship-to/contact person/employee/customer) which is based on the business partner ROLE concept.... anyway...you can control the allowed activity based on different authorization objects.....
another example is business transaction processing...which can be launched by:
a very generic transaction code: CRMD_ORDER
transaction category related transaction codes :e.g.
> CRMD_BUS2000126 for activity management
> CRMD_BUS200115 for Sales processes
Again...allowed activity is not controlled by the tcode, but on authorization object level...
3) As of the new WEBCLIENT UI (which is valid as of release CRM2006s/CRM2007/CRM7.0) SAP also invented an extra authorization layer, which is UI COMPONENT LEVEL and logical links.... controlled by object UIU_COMP.
However, they also introduced the BUSINESS ROLE Concept (e.g; SALESPRO/MARKETINGPRO/...) which defines actually the functionalities, navigation bar, screen configuration, logical links you can use/see within the new WEBclient UI.
Another thing is that instead of using TRANSACTION CODES, as of these new releases, you are actually using 'external services'....so you do not authorize on tcodes basically....but the logic between tcodes and external services in relation to the authorization objects that are checked is more or less the same....
STANDARD authorization setup in the new WEBUI client is therefore controlled by both backend authorizations (not UIU component related) and the UIU_COMP (restricting access to workcenters/logical links/...)
4) Additionally SAP also provides a concept called ACE (which stand for ACCES CONTROL ENGINE)....
This requires a bit of customizing...and the rest is more or less pure customer development, as you will create your own methods where you'll define a logic which dynamically will verify what kind of access you have for an object....
You should now that ACE is actually implemented on top of your 'normal' sap crm security setup....
