  • What are the differences between attributes and variables?

    I am trying to develop a firmer understanding of the difference between attributes and variables. I understand attributes are lexically scoped to a class and variables are lexically scoped to the enclosing block. The lifetime of an attribute is linked to a class' instance. What is the lifetime of a variable? What is the lifetime of variables declared in a script file's top-level?

    It depend on whether the script is running in standalone mode or been called by others (library mode).
    If running as standalone, the variable of the script in the top level exists until the the script exit. If run as library mode, the variable in the top level of the script will never get to execute. Only the function and class available for call.
    Try calling another script with top level variable (place print statement to verify), you realize in library mode, it will never been called. That's why the main method as in Java is never needed because of this reason.

  • Differences between attribute and user defined attributes

    1.what is commit block

    When uncommitted access is enabled (by default)
    Commit Block - number of blocks modified before a sycornization point occurs
    Relates to how calc scripts are processed and written to the database during a transaction.
    If this setting is too low, Essbase will automatically adjust it.
    Default setting is 3000.

  • Difference between resizeEffect and resize ?

    Hy
    does anyone can explain me the difference between resizeEffect and resize ?
    example:
    <mx:Button label="hello" resizeEffect="" resize="" />
    thanks !

    resize is an event that the component dispatches whenever it's size is changed.
    resizeEffect is the effect that takes place when the resize event happens.

  • Difference between automatic and non-automatic page attributes

    Hi,
    Can anyone tell me difference between automatic page attributes and non-automatic page attributes?
    and also difference between stateful and stateless mode with examples?
    Thanks
    Narendra

    Hi Mullapudi,
    If you mark a page attribute as u2018automaticu2019 (auto in the system), the attribute automatically gets its values via the calling URL or
    via the navigation process from other pages.
    This kind of attribute only has to be declared for one page.
    It is identified by its name equivalence.
    If another page uses a parameter with the same name,
    at runtime that parameter automatically
    gets the same values as the attribute.
    Non-automatic page attributes
    If you flag a page attribute as non-automatic, the attribute gets its values from the class attribute.
    The visibility of page attributes when parameters are transferred between BSP pages depends on whether the navigation is explicit or implicit.
    Explicit navigation
    For example, if navigation->goto_page(page.htm)
    Implicit navigation
    With implicit navigation, the page attributes are transferred automatically from OnInputProcessing to OnInitialization, both in stateful and stateless mode.
    The auto page attributes are refilled by the request, both in stateful and stateless mode.

    HR deals with the INFOTYPES which are similar to Tables in General ABAP.
    There are different ways of fetching data from these infotypes.
    There are different areas in HR LIKE Personal Admn, Orgn Management, Benefits, Time amangement, Event Management, Payroll etc
    Infotypes for these areas are different from one another area.
    storing of records data in each type of area is different
    LDBS like PNP are used in HR programing.

    HR Long texts Upload
    Look at the below link
    And finally,
    Few notes are below:
    InfoSets in the HR Application
    You can use SAP Query in HR to report on HR data. Queries are maintained as described in Creating Queries. The special features of queries created for HR are described in Maintaining Queries in the Human Resources Application. The maintenance procedure for HR InfoSets differs from the described procedure inasmuch as HR data fields are grouped together in infotypes.
    InfoSet management in SAP Query is also used for InfoSet Query. For further information, see Functions for Managing InfoSets.
    If you want to create InfoSets for HR, you can use logical databases PNP, PNPCE, PAP, and PCH (see HR Logical Databases). The database you must use to create your InfoSet depends on the component in which the data you want to report on is stored.
    The reports you can execute using InfoSets based on logical databases PNP (or PNPCE) or PCH are similar, but differ in that they can select different objects. The following table describes the connection between the logical database, and the infotypes you can include in an InfoSet. It also provides you with one or two examples of reports that you can execute using the appropriate InfoSets.
    Logical database PNP/PNPCE* PCH PAP
    Selection of Persons Objects from Personnel Planning Applicants
    Infotypes that can be included in the InfoSet Infotypes for· Personnel Administration (0000-0999) · Time Management (2000-2999) · Payroll infotypes · Infotypes for Personnel Planning objects that can be related to persons If the object type is specified:· Infotypes for the object type · Infotypes for objects that can be related to the specified object typeIf the object type is not specified:· All infotypes · Infotypes for Recruitment (4000-4999)· Some infotypes for Personnel Administration (such as 0001 and 0002)
    · Customer infotypes
    Reporting examples · Selection of all persons who participated in a specific business event, output of prices for reserved business events · Selection of all persons assigned to a specific personnel area, output of qualifications held by these persons · Selection of all business events held in London in March, output of all persons who participated in these business events · Selection of all positions assigned to a specific organizational unit, output of all persons assigned to the positions · Selection of all applicants hired last year to work on special projects, output of addresses for the applicants selected
    Logical database PNPCE (PNP Concurrent Employment) functions just like logical database PNP. The procedure for creating InfoSets is also the same. It only becomes significant if you work with Concurrent Employment.
    Creating InfoSets
    The maintenance procedure for HR InfoSets differs from the procedure described so far in this section inasmuch as HR data fields are grouped together in infotypes. To set up an InfoSet for the HR application, proceed as follows:
    1. On the initial screen for maintaining InfoSets, enter a name for the InfoSet and choose Create.
    2. On the next screen, enter a name for the InfoSet and select one of the HR logical databases in accordance with your reporting requirements.
    Customer infotypes can be created on all HR logical databases. In each individual case, therefore, you must decide which database to select so that you can report on customer infotypes.
    This screen enables you to enter an authorization group. All of the queries that are subsequently created using this InfoSet can only be executed by persons who have this authorization group.
    3. Choose .
    This takes you to the Infotype Selection for InfoSet  screen. You now have the option of creating field groups and assigning fields as required for non-HR InfoSets. Field groups that correspond to infotypes and already contain fields, however, are always created for HR InfoSets. The field groups are displayed in an overview tree in the top right section of the screen.
    The infotypes that you included in the InfoSet are displayed in an overview tree on the left of the screen. The infotype fields that are already included in field groups are displayed in a different color, and the corresponding field group ID is displayed.
    In the standard system, a field group is created automatically for each infotype that you included in the InfoSet (a field group corresponds to an infotype).
    In the standard system, each field group contains the infotype-specific fields. To ensure that working with the InfoSet is as easy as possible, you are advised to restrict your use of fields in each field group to those you really require. This means you should remove fields that are not required.
    An infotype's fields must only be assigned to the pertinent field group. Make sure this assignment is correct. If the assignment is incorrect, the InfoSet could be rendered unusable.
    When an InfoSet is created, the following fields are transferred automatically to the first field group:
    § Logical database PNPCE or PNP Personnel number
    § Logical database PAP Applicant number
    § Logical database PCH Object ID, plan version, and object type
    6. Determine the fields that must be included in the field groups of your InfoSet. If you require further information, see Assigning Fields to a Field Group.
    If you want, you can change the default sequence of field groups and fields as required using Drag&Drop.
    7. To save the InfoSet, choose .
    8. To generate the InfoSet, choose .
    On the Change InfoSet (InfoSet name) screen, you can choose Edit ® Change infotype selection to add more infotypes to the InfoSet, or to remove infotypes from the InfoSet. Remember to regenerate the InfoSet afterwards.
    This screen also enables you to update InfoSets if, for example, the system contains new additional fields for specific key values. To do so, choose InfoSet ® Additional functions ® Update additional HR fields.
    9. Go back to the initial screen for InfoSet maintenance.
    10. Choose User group assignment.
    11. Select a user group, and save your entry.
    sample code
    START-OF-SELECTION.
    GET pernr.
    rp_provide_from_frst p0000 space pn-begda pn-endda.
    if pnp-sw-found EQ '1'.

  • Difference Between Transport and message protocols in XI

    Hi,
        Can u please explain with some example , Difference Between Transport and message protocols in XI.
    thanks
    dhanush

    Hi dhanush,
    This two can have different attributes which were assigned in the adapter metadata. Please see this help for some info on this:
    http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/79/e462405c910272e10000000a155106/content.htm
    Go to SAP BASIS 6.40 or 7.00 software compoenent and open namespace http://sap.com/xi/XI/System. Go to Adapter objects and open Adapter metadata. Then open any adapter. Here you can see all the properties of your adapter which support.
    Transport protocol gives information about outside of message details, kind of system, security details.
    A transport protocol is a network protocol that has the capability of transferring some payload from one node to another, thus providing some level of transparency from the underlying network.
    Transport protocols are used as a mechanism to move payloads around a network. Typically, a payload will have a transport binding associated with it. For example, SOAP (acting as a payload) has a predetermined binding for HTTP (a transport protocol).
    Some common transport protocols include: HTTP, HTTP-R, SMTP and BEEP.
    Message protocol gives you an idea of message type XI payload

  • Difference between S_PROGRAM and S_DEVELOP!!

    Hi All,
    Can anyone please tell me the difference between S_PROGRAM and S_DEVELOP..??
    I think both are used to protect the access to the ABAP programs..Then how it's different from each other?
    Thanks in advance,
    Ram

    Hello Ramkumar,
    S_PROGRAM authorization object is used as mentioned, to protect execution of the program:
    For example ig you have a program called "ZPROGRAM" and you want to secure the program such that only a select few people can execute it, you need to assign an "authorization group" (dont confuse this with the authorization group value used in S_TABU_DIS).
    To assign the authorization group to the prgram go to transaction SE38 type in the progrm name and click on edit
    (Please note that you need a DEVELOPER key to edit the program)
    Then once you the program is displayed use the menu option:
    GOTO--> attributes
    One of the field displayed here is "authorization group". You have to assign the authotization group here (the field name is SECU) (these authorization group values are stored in table TPGP).
    But as suggested by Julius RSCSAUTH is a better option especially since Security guys wont have access to developer keys.
    Once this is done, the authorization group has to be assigned in the object S_PROGRAM in an authorization role.
    Only if the role containing this object (with the appropriate value) is assigned to the user, he will be able to execute that program.
    S_DEVELOP is used to create / modify / change programs (and their attributes). This authorization is only necessary for ABAP developers / prgrammers and you should avoid assigning this to anyone else.
    Hope this helps.

    Prashant

  • MAIN DIFFERENCES BETWEEN PARALLEL AND SEQUENTAIL PRCESSING???

    HI PALS,
    I WANT THE COMPLETE DIFFERENCES BETWEEN PARALLEL AND SEQUENTIAL PROCESSING!
    IN THE CONTEXT OF RFC.

    Hi
    Parallel Processing
    To achieve a balanced distribution of the system load, you can use destination additions to execute function modules in parallel tasks in any application server or in a predefined application server group of an SAP system.
    Parallel-processing is implemented with a special variant of asynchonous RFC. Itu2019s important that you use only the correct variant for your own parallel processing applications: the CALL FUNCTION STARTING NEW TASK DESTINATION IN GROUP keyword. Using other variants of asynchronous RFC circumvents the built-in safeguards in the correct keyword, and can bring your system to its knees
    Details are discussed in the following subsections:
    ·        Prerequisites for Parallel Processing
    ·        Function Modules and ABAP Keywords for Parallel Processing
    ·        Managing Resources in Parallel Processing
    Prerequisites for Parallel Processing
    Before you implement parallel processing, make sure that your application and your SAP system meet these requirements:
    ·        Logically-independent units of work:
    The data processing task that is to be carried out in parallel must be logically independent of other instances of the task. That is, the task can be carried out without reference to other records from the same data set that are also being processed in parallel, and the task is not dependent upon the results of others of the parallel operations. For example, parallel processing is not suitable for data that must be sequentially processed or in which the processing of one data item is dependent upon the processing of another item of the data.
    By definition, there is no guarantee that data will be processed in a particular order in parallel processing or that a particular result will be available at a given point in processing. 
    ·        ABAP requirements:
    ¡        The function module that you call must be marked as externally callable. This attribute is specified in the Remote function call supported field in the function module definition (transaction SE37).
    ¡        The called function module may not include a function call to the destination u201CBACK.u201D
    ¡        The calling program should not change to a new internal session after making an asynchronous RFC call. That is, you should not use SUBMIT or CALL TRANSACTION in such a report after using CALL FUNCTION STARTING NEW TASK.  
    ¡        You cannot use the CALL FUNCTION STARTING NEW TASK DESTINATION IN GROUP keyword to start external programs. 
    ·        System resources: 
    In order to process tasks from parallel jobs, a server in your SAP system must have at least 3 dialog work processes. It must also meet the workload criteria of the parallel processing system: Dispatcher queue less than 10% full, at least one dialog work process free for processing tasks from the parallel job.
    Function Modules and ABAP Keywords for Parallel Processing
    You can implement parallel processing in your applications by using the following function modules and ABAP keywords:
    ·        SPBT_INITIALIZE: Optional function module. 
    Use to determine the availability of resources for parallel processing. 
    You can do the following:
    ¡        check that the parallel processing group that you have specified is correct.
    ¡        find out how many work processes are available so that you can more efficiently size the packets of data that are to be processed in your data.
    ·        CALL FUNCTION Remotefunction STARTING NEW TASK Taskname DESTINATION IN GROUP:
    With this ABAP statement, you are telling the SAP system to process function module calls in parallel. Typically, youu2019ll place this keyword in a loop in which you divide up the data that is to be processed into work packets. You can pass the data that is to be processed in the form of an internal table (EXPORT, TABLE arguments). The keyword implements parallel processing by dispatching asynchronous RFC calls to the servers that are available in the RFC server group specified for the processing.
    Note that your RFC calls with CALL FUNCTION are processed in work processes of type DIALOG. The DIALOG limit on processing of one dialog step (by default 300 seconds, system profile parameter rdisp/max_wprun_time) applies to these RFC calls. Keep this limit in mind when you divide up data for parallel processing calls. 
    ·        SPBT_GET_PP_DESTINATION: Optional function module. 
    Call immediately after the CALL FUNCTION keyword to get the name of the server on which the parallel processing task will be run. 
    ·        SPBT_DO_NOT_USE_SERVER: Optional function module. 
    Excludes a particular server from further use for processing parallel processing tasks. Use in conjunction with SPBT_GET_PP_DESTINATION if you determine that a particular server is not available for parallel processing (for example, COMMUNICATION FAILURE exception if a server becomes unavailable).
    ·        WAIT: ABAP keyword
    WAIT UNTIL
    Required if you wish to wait for all of the asynchronous parallel tasks created with CALL FUNCTION to return. This is normally a requirement for orderly background processing. May be used only if the CALL FUNCTION includes the PERFORMING ON RETURN addition.
    ·        RECEIVE: ABAP keyword
    RECEIVE RESULTS FROM FUNCTION Remotefunction
    Required if you wish to receive the results of the processing of an asynchronous RFC. RECEIVE retrieves IMPORT and TABLE parameters as well as messages and return codes.
    Managing Resources in Parallel Processing
    You use the following destination additions to perform parallel execution of function modules (asynchronous calls) in the SAP system:
    In a predefined group of application servers:
    CALL FUNCTION Remotefunction STARTING NEW TASK Taskname
    DESTINATION IN GROUP Groupname
    In all currently available and active application servers:
    CALL FUNCTION Remotefunction STARTING NEW TASK Taskname
    DESTINATION IN GROUP DEFAULT
    Sequential Processing
    In the following cases, the system chooses sequential (non-parallel) processing:
    ●      In table RSADMIN, entry QUERY_MAX_WP_DIAG has value (column value) 1.
    ●      The entire query consists of one sub-access only.
    ●      The query is running in a batch process.
    ●      The query was started from the query monitor (transaction RSRT) using various debug options (for example, SQL query display, execution plan display). See, Dividing a MultiProvider Query into Sub-Queries.
    ●      The query requests non-cumulative key figures.
    ●      Insufficient dialog processes are available when the query is executed. These are required for parallel processing.
    ●      The query is configured for non-parallel processing.
    ●      You want to save the result of the query in a file or a table.
    In Release SAP NetWeaver 7.0, the system can efficiently manage the large intermediate results produced by parallel processing. In previous releases, the system terminated when it reached a particular intermediate result size and proceeded to read data sequentially. This is no longer the case. Therefore, the RSADMIN parameter that was used in previous releases for reading a MultiProvider sequentially is no longer used.

  • What is the difference between DSo and Infocube

    Hello,
             Kindly tell me what is the difference between DSO and Infocube?
    And please tell me how to take the desicion that in whichi case we can use DSO and in which case we can use Infocube..

    Hi ,
    DataStore object serves as a storage location for consolidated and cleansed transaction data or master data on a document (atomic) level.
    This data can be evaluated using a BEx query.
    A DataStore object contains key fields (for example, document number/item) and data fields that can also contain character fields (for example, order status, customer) as key figures. The data from a DataStore object can be updated with a delta update into InfoCubes and/or other DataStore objects or master data tables (attributes or texts) in the same system or across different systems.
    Unlike multidimensional data storage using InfoCubes, the data in DataStore objects is stored in transparent, flat database tables. The system does not create fact tables or dimension tables.
    Use
    The cumulative update of key figures is supported for DataStore objects, just as it is with InfoCubes, but with DataStore objects it is also possible to overwrite data fields. This is particularly important with document-related structures. If documents are changed in the source system, these changes include both numeric fields, such as the order quantity, and non-numeric fields, such as the ship-to party, status and delivery date. To reproduce these changes in the DataStore objects in the BI system, you have to overwrite the relevant fields in the DataStore objects and set them to the current value. Furthermore, you can use an overwrite and the existing change log to render a source delta enabled. This means that the delta that is further updated to the InfoCubes, for example, is calculated from two successive after-images.
    An InfoCube describes (from an analysis point of view) a self-contained dataset, for example, for a business-orientated area. You analyze this dataset in a BEx query.
    An InfoCube is a set of relational tables arranged according to the star schema: A large fact table in the middle surrounded by several dimension tables.
    Use
    InfoCubes are filled with data from one or more InfoSources or other InfoProviders. They are available as InfoProviders for analysis and reporting purposes.
    Structure
    The data is stored physically in an InfoCube. It consists of a number of InfoObjects that are filled with data from staging. It has the structure of a star schema.
    The real-time characteristic can be assigned to an InfoCube. Real-time InfoCubes are used differently to standard InfoCubes.

  • Difference between char and varchar, also the difference between varchar2

    Hi,
    Can anyone explain me the difference between char and varchar, and also the difference between varchar and varchar2...

    Varchar2 is variable width character data type, so if you define column with width 20 and insert only one character to tis column only, one character will be stored in database. Char is not variable width so when you define column with width 20 and insert one character to this column it will be right padded with 19 spaces to desired length, so you will store 20 characters in the dattabase (follow the example 1). Varchar data type from Oracle 9i is automaticlly promoted to varchar2 (follow example 2)
    Example 1:
    SQL> create table tchar(text1 char(10), text2 varchar2(10))
    2 /
    Table created.
    SQL> insert into tchar values('krystian','krystian')
    2 /
    1 row created.
    SQL> select text1, length(text1), text2, length(text2)
    2 from tchar
    3 /
    TEXT1 LENGTH(TEXT1) TEXT2 LENGTH(TEXT2)

  • Difference between ok_code and sy-ucomm

    Hi,
    Can any one tell me the difference between ok_code and sy-ucomm

    Hi,
    Actually OK_CODE and SY-Ucomm are the same. But experts suggest use of OK code for following reason:
    In each PAI event that a user triggers by choosing either a pushbutton on the screen or an element in a GUI status, the corresponding function code is placed into the system field SYST-UCOMM or SY-UCOMM and placed in the OK_CODE field (as long as the function code is not empty). Empty function codes are placed in neither the SY-UCOMM field nor the OK_CODE field.
    In your ABAP programs, you should work with the OK_CODE field instead of SY-UCOMM. There are two reasons for this: Firstly, the ABAP program has full control over fields declared within it, and secondly, you should never change the value of an ABAP system field. However, you should also always initialize the OK_CODE field in an ABAP program for the following reason:
    In the same way that the OK_CODE field in the ABAP program and the system field SY-UCOMM receive the contents of the corresponding screen fields in the PAI event, their contents are also assigned to the OK_CODE screen field and system field SYST-UCOMM in the PBO event. Therefore, you must clear the OK_CODE field in the ABAP program to ensure that the function code of a screen is not already filled in the PBO event with an unwanted value. This is particularly important when the next PAI event can be triggered with an empty function code (for example, using ENTER). Empty function codes do not affect SY-UCOMM or the OK_CODE field, and consequently, the old field contents are transported.

    regards

    Hi Nishant Arora,
    Modify: It works in performing two actions.
    They are: Insert + Update.
    For Example If a record that is exited in database, so you are modifying that record, it updates that particular record.
    Similarly, If the is not existed in the database, you are modifying it, it inserts a new record.
    Update: Update means just it updates the status, I mean it only updates the record. It doesn't inserts any new record if that particular record is not present in the database.
    These are the cases you need to write these statements.
    Syntaxes: :
