Differences between AIX and Windows for SAP

Dear All,
I have a problem regarding SAP Software.We want to change our company software .First we order SAP On Windows with Oracle10g But Now We want SAP on AIX with Oracle10g.
SAP delivered us software on Windows platform.
Please Suggest me for this as what are the differences between the above two platforms and what are the differences between the above 2 platforms.
Regards,
Pankaj Kalsayan

hi Pankaj,
well, this is a very general question. perhaps you could specify a little more.
in general i would see no difference regarding the end user sitting in front of his pc using sapgui.
as far as i know all server side sap software is available for aix and windows (and many more).
for administration on the other hand there is of course lots of difference. AIX is a UNIX operating system running on special hardware with power processors. it offers quit extensive virtualisation abilities using so called LPARs and supports real big number of CPUs and large RAM. Windows is a completly differnet operating system running mostly on x86/amd64 hardware.
therefore you should also consider what know-how is available in your system administration.
not shure if that is partly answering your question ...
btw. if you are going forward with AIX you should perhaps consider switching oracle with db2. so you have a consistent IBM based landscape. also to me, sap and db2 seem to "like" each other more than sap and oracle

martin

What's the difference between WorkflowTask and WorkflowJob in SAP MDM API?

Hi Support,
Could you tell me the differences between WorkflowTask and WorkflowJob in SAP MDM API? And which can represent a workflow in Workflows tab in MDM Date Manager.
Thanks & Regards,
Song

Hi Songxu,
Workflow Task: It is the task(workflow steps like Process, Approver etc) assigned to different user during Workflow. User's use the workflow tabs in Data Manager to view and process workflow tasks. see page 91/654 of Data Manager Guide.
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nwmdm71/helpdata/en/4b/72b8aaa42301bae10000000a42189b/MDMDataManager71.pdf
Workflow Job: Each workflow is invoked as a job that can consist of multiple records that move through the steps of a workflow (how many records are involved into your Workflow) as a group while simultaneously maintaining record-level granularity. Once the job has been launched, it moves automatically from step-to-step and from user-to-user, showing up in the inbound task queue in each useru2019s Workflows tab for disposition and processing.

What is a difference between MB01 and MBST for GR Cancellation

Hi,
What is a difference between MB01 and MBST for GR Cancellation.
Regards,
Aditya

Hi,
MB01 is used for doing the GR for collective PO at a single instance.
This transaction will be utilize when an individual needs to create a material document. A material document can only be displayed or changed after it has been generated in the SAP system. In a computer based inventory management system, the principal of "no posting without a document" applies. A material document is generated and stored in the SAP system for every transaction that causes a change in stock.
As mentioned, when a goods movement is posted a material document is created. It serves as proof of the movement If the movement updates a G/L account; an accounting document is also created. The material and accounting document s are identified by unique document numbers
Once you have posted a goods movement, you cannot change material numbers, quantities or account numbers in the material document. You can however use the Change command to enter additional or change text information such as comments or references. To reverse the movement or change a quantity, a new transaction must be performed.
MBST:-
Perform this transaction when a previously performed goods issue must be cancelled due to an error in data entry or other circumstances deem the previous transaction unnecessary.
Prerequisites:-
A previously played transaction that requires cancellation.
An existing Material Document in SAP.
This Transaction will be utilized when an individual needs to cancel a material document due to a data entry error or other circumstances deem a previous transaction unnecessary. A material document can only be cancelled after it has been generated in the SAP system. A material document is generated and stored in the SAP system for every transaction that causes a change in stock.
Performing this transaction will "undo" a previous transaction by reversing individual line items in a material document or by reversing an entire material document. This transaction will reinstate the affected cost center, purchase order or stock location to the state they were in prior to playing the original transaction.

Difference between view and window ?

Hi All,
Can you tell me a basic difference between view and window , maybe you can correlate your answers with concepts of HTML.
Rajeev

Hi Rajeev,
A window is a place for displaying your views. Your view is not available to the outside world. View is available only to your component. However, your window is an interface view, which can be displayed in other components.
A view contains your UI elements. It has a layout (a window does not). A window contains embedded views.
In the window, you can define how navigation between views takes place (by creating navigation links).

What situations are better to export to to .PNG or .JPG?

iPad apps are designed specifically for the iPad and will not run on the iPhone or iPod Touch. iPhone/iPod apps will run on the iPad, but will only take up an iPhone sized portion of the iPad screen (though you get a 2x button which effectively doubles each pixel in both directions so may appear pixelated). There are also 'universal' apps (which have a '+' symbol against them in the store) which have processing in them to recognise the device that they are on and will tailor the display accordingly (so will make use of the iPad's larger screen).

Byte count difference between Unix and Windows

Hi,
I use sun.net.ftp.FtpClient to transfer files from a windows machine to a unix server.
The transfer works fine.
However, due to a problem I had a few days ago with the file not completing it's transfer but no side (not my FtpClient object nor the UNIX Ftp server) has thrown an exception or reported an error, I need to verify the transfer is complete.
from the byte count I see that on my machine, the file size is 120743 bytes, and on the server side it's 121047 bytes.
The file has 14172 records, when the last one is an empty line.
There is a 304 bytes difference between the 2 reports.
I downloaded the file I transferred there manually and compared the 2 and they match.
How can I know from my program if the transfer is complete?
Thanks,
Omer.

The file size isn't 304 byte, that's the difference between the 2 files.
I use FtpClient.binary() to set the mode to binary prior to sending the file.
The file has 14172 records which should add up to a total difference of 14172 bytes (maybe 1 or 2 more if there is a difference in the EOF), but not 304.
here's the code:
putClient=new FtpClient(host, port); //initialize the client object
putClient.login(user, password);
putClient.binary(); //set transfer mode to binary
putClient.cd(remotePath); //change directory to the target one
FileInputStream fileIn=new FileInputStream(sourcePath + File.separator + sourceFileName);
long fileSize=fileIn.getChannel().size(); //get the size of the file
TelnetOutputStream telnetOut=putClient.put(remoteFileName);//acquire an input stream from the server
byte[] byteBuff=new byte[8192]; //8 kb buffer
int readSuccesfull=0;
while((readSuccesfull=fileIn.read(byteBuff))!=-1){ // now transfer the file
telnetOut.write(byteBuff, 0, readSuccesfull);
totalByetsSent+=readSuccesfull;
fileIn.close();//release the file stream resource
TelnetInputStream inStream = putClient.list(); // acquire a stream for verifying the file was received
/* now I read the lines of the list() command and parse the lines for the size and date and I get that the file that I sent has a size of 121047, and the line that represents it is this:
-rwxrwxrwx 1 owner group 121047 Jan 10 17:49 ivory.txt
However, the size from my machine's report is 120743 which I get from the fileSize variable*/According to what has been said here, and to my intuition, the size on UNIX should be smaller than the size on Windows, but yet, it's not the case.
This would add up fine if the file that I downloaded from the server wouldn't match the file that I sent, but they do.
I'm pretty much a noob at developing and even more a noob at Java, so there is a very good chance that I do something wrong here, could be with the use of the FileChannel.size() method usage.
Thanks.

Timing difference between Macbook and WIndows system

I uses a web content management system for my website which was developed in windows, IE and firefox compatible. I notice that if I open up the website in a Macbook Pro, the system time is always 8 hours ahead of Singapore time although the Macbook time settings is set locally. I use firefox, safari, IE5, same result. Which means whatever contents I saved only appears 8 hours later. I use Windows IE or firefox and it works just fine. I don't think is the CMS system problem. I thought it might just be on this Macbook, I got someone to try it out using another Macbook, same result, 8 hours ahead. So it it something about the Macbook settings?
na Windows XP Pro

Hi Keonigt,
There are definitely hardware differences between the MacBook and its bigger sibling the MacBook Pro. You pointed out the first difference of screen sizes. Another perhaps obvious difference is the MacBook Pro's external construction is aluminum as opposed to "plastic". Another difference which may affect performance is that the MacBook Pro utilizes dedicated Video RAM as opposed to the MacBook's sharing it's VRAM with its RAM. This will affect gaming and other graphic intensive applications.
Depending on your needs and objectives - these differences will affect your decision. Of course, both are fantastic machines.
Good luck.

Difference between LTS and lT for expression bulide

I am using the OBIEE 10g ,in the administration tools , can you tell me the difference between '...' button for expression bulide(Column Mapping) in the Logical Table Source and '...' button for expression bulide in the Logical Column ?
Thanks.
Edited by: kobe on Jan 8, 2012 10:00 PM

hai..
I wil tell you with example. In bmm layer, amount_sold is there and it is aggregated.Suppose, if you want to reuse that aggregated column, we cannot. At that time, create a new logical column ,goto-->expression builder-->select the logical fact table-->logical column(i.e,amount_sold).By doing this, we can reuse that amount_sold column.
Thanks,

LabVIEW 8.5.1 Student edition - differences between Mac and Windows version?

Hi,
I've just bought the student version of LabVIEW 8.5.1 and am using Mac OS X 10.4.11. What are the biggest differences between the Mac and Windows versions since the box came with a Mac installer CD and a Windows installer DVD?
Cheers
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Looks like you got the LabVIEW Student Edition Software Suite DVD.
It comes with 6 toolkits, and from the product spects, some (or all?) of those are windows only (at least in 8.5), e.g.:
Digital Filter Design Toolkit
Modulation Toolkit
SignalExpress
Since you have 8.5, you are also missing a few basic things that only recevied MAC support in 8.6, such as Mathscript, Control design and Simulation, and Native 3D graphs.

Differences between 7 and 8 for long books

I am considering FM 7 and 8 for producing a long book. The issue with 8 is that it requires SP2 on XP, and I can't put that on my writing system.
So that would favour 7 unless its features are noticably lacking compared to 8. Here are the book requirements, please read carefully --
* There are 4 parallel columns spread across 2 facing pages -- each column has its own text, layout, font and size, different from texts in other columns.
* All 4 columns in the spread (2 on even pages, 2 on odd pages) must retain their positions on the spread, no matter which page of the book you turn to.
* There is absolutely no left to right wrapping of columns in a parallel column layout. This means all columns flow down - even to even, and odd to odd.
* This page flow must be automatic -- I am simply NOT going to draw frames for all pages and manually link them across a 400 page book, it is absurd.
I need to know which one of 7 or 8 supports automatic wrapping of 2 columns on even pages to the next even page, and the two columns on the right odd pages to the next odd page (if you don't understand this requisite column flow, please leave it for other to reply who do -- thank you). If both FM 7 and 8 are more or less the same, that would be very helpful information too. Please give compative capabilities as it relates to parallel book columns.
BTW, another really crucial feature is being able to manually set a FIXED line height in each column -- not in point size, like InDesign does (that does not work for precise alignment) -- I should be able to specify the line height in each column in decimals of an inch. Which one can do this?
Your help on these specific questions is much appreciated. Please no discussion of FM 9. I will not be getting that version. Thanks

ScratchyBoy wrote:
Mike --
That weird work-around is indecipherable to me (column less than a character width??) -- would you care to explain it in the context of this thread?
I noticed that Arnis has already explained the reason for using a tiny frame in each thread to carry the flow across pages where you don't want to display that content.
The reason Jay posted that is because he was on my question in InDesign, realized the serious failing of InDesign to handle a 2-page spread of parallel columns, and obviously wanted to see if FM could do it. He did a book in FM with only 2 columns, hence the "entrenched" concept of even-to-odd page flow worked fine for him.
You know, I have personally read 100+ books with 4 parallel texts like I am describing, and I am sure there are thousands of ones I haven't read with a similar layout. It takes scarcely 2 seconds to realize, looking at the 2 page spread, that even page columns MUST wrap to even page columns, and odd to odd. It's not an "unusual, special" request, it is a NECESSARY REQUIREMENT of 4 parallel columns spread across facing pages. Surely you can see that? But it seems that Adobe developers either never read any scholarly texts, or they just don't understand parallel texts -- period.
Have you contacted the folks who created the books you're referring to, to learn what tools they used for the books? Just seeing the final print version, or even the PDF, can't reveal the underlying construction.
Maybe the truth came out in that thread. Framemaker, as it was originally conceived by the original developers, DID allow correct page flow for parallel columns -- but once Adobe got it, they killed that ability, dumbing it down to InDesign's level, which cannot do it. Peter so much as admitted to that fact on that thread, that somewhere in the versions, this feature was killed. Which confirms the above paragraph.
Winfried Ring responded to my question about the feature not working in later FrameMaker releases, in that other thread, that the technique still works in later FrameMaker releases. The key, Winfried pointed out, is to begin the document with one body page, regardless of whether it's a single-page or facing-page layout. This keeps FrameMaker from getting confused about where the flows should go on the new pages it creates as any of the flows grows to the point that it creates a new page.
I think you're trying to imagine how these techniques will work, rather than trying them out hands-on. I've done that myself; it's a good learning style for some things, but in this particular case, you need the empirical experience of seeing how the software's built-in mechanisms behave. Until and unless you do it and gain the experience, you can't imagine, project, empathize, conjure, or visualize how these things work. You do have a clear vision of what you want for the end result, however.
In FrameMaker, as in InDesign, as in PageMaker, as in QuarkXpress, you draw text frames on document pages, or on master pages, using a text frame tool. It's named differently in each application.
The tools are for users to apply their vision and creativity, so if you need a certain kind of layout, you need to lay it out yourself. If your particular layout were common, there would very likely be at least one template for available in each professional publishing tool's community.
Why should I even consider FM 9 ?? Adobe wants $1000 bucks for it -- they brag on its "improved features for book production". What a laugh! They can't even conceive of scholarly comparative books across a HUGE gamut of subject areas -- so why should I consider it ?? I'd love for someone to tell me: "YES !! I am proud to announce that FrameMaker can do this natively out of the box !! " But I don't see it coming, do you?
Professional tools cost huge money to develop. If you use them professionally, your work should bring in the revenue to pay for the tools.
As has been said by many posters on many threads in regards to most software, especially the professional tools, it's very unlikely that you'll find a legitimate copy of a past version for sale. The older the version, the less likely there will be a legit copy on some dealer's shelf that pops up, and is put on eBay for a song. It's illegal to sell old versions that one uses to upgrade to a new version. You'll not be able to register the license; in recent versions of Adobe products, you won't be able to use the software at all after the trial period expires, without a valid license.
Using a license cracking tool is also illegal.
It sounds as if your hardware and Windows version limitations are constraining your software choices. It's a tough set of choices.
Oh, BTW, here's a link to a PDF of a FrameMaker example of what I think you're talking about:
http://dl.dropbox.com/u/363247/fm%207X7%204-parallel%20flows%20across%20same-side%20pages. recover.pdf
EDIT:
In the PDF, the small fragments of text are the "pass-through" threaded frames that Arnis described. They're larger than a single character, so you can see the text flow through; in real use, they should be teensy.
/EDIT
It's trickier in InDesign because it's built-in ability to create new pages as stories grow is trick to accomplish the same behavior. The In-Tools plugin that was mentioned can do this.
If you're persnickety about typographic control, InDesign is the better tool. FrameMaker isn't a slouch, it's just that InDesign's been bred for the task.
Regarding lining up the text across columns, InDesign and FrameMaker both can control baseline alignment. You'll need to try out both tools to decide which works the way you need.

Is there any differences between the two. I have a nano that is windows formatted, but it also works on my mac. Does it really matter which OS you use to format it?

well yes a mac formatted iPod will not work on a PC

Difference between mac and windows

I'm a beginner user of Adobe Presenter in Japan.
I don't know why the price of this app differs between for Windows($499.00) and for Mac(Video Express:$1.99).
Although I tried using both version(Win and Mac), I confermed no differences in functions, abilities, and so on.
Please tell me the reason why. i think it's unfair.

CS5 differences between mac and windows

Hello all, we just installed CS5 on a new PC and are now comtemplating purchasing a MAC to run CS5 on as well. I was wondering what the differences are and limitations now that they're both on Intel processors.
Our designers are concerned that with out a MAC they won't be able to "if we get any native mac files, we won’t be able to access them—it does happen sometimes"
They mention that some portions of one of our publications are done completely on a MAC.
Any input or justification would be appreciated!

There are no differences to speak of between the applications on the two platforms. The only possible issue would be fonts. Mac Type 1 fonts are not compatible with Windows but almost everything is OpenType today and that's totally crossplatform.

Difference between MIGo and MIRO for GR IR clearing

Hi all,
I hav created one PO in foreign currency for 10 items. GR is happening for all 10 lines with rate say Rs 50. Now when i am doing MIRO with same rate i.e. Rs 50, 8 materials are getting posted correctly. But for 2 materials there is inventory posting for fixed amount (in local currency) irrespective of quantty.this case amount in foreign currency is same but dieefernce for GR/IR account is in local currency.
When line items analysed it was observed that fo these 2 materials exchange rate picked up is different than header exchange rate. the difference in exchange rate is posted to stock account.
In short system icking differen xchange rate for different line items for one invoice ( MIRO is happening against only one invoice)
Can any one please explai this phenomena and any solution for this?
thanks

When you do aut. clearing and the exchange rates account is set up it will clear the GR/IR account.
There is no reason to change exchange rates
