  • What is the difference between version 4.7EE and ECC 5.0

    DEAR EXPERTS
    what is the difference between version 4.7EE and ECC 5.0?WHAT ARE THE ADDITIONAL FUNCTIONALTIES IN
    ECC 5.0?

    hi,
    Diff between 4.7 and ECC 5.0:
    1. 4.7 is on R/3 platform, while ECC 5.0 is on mySAP ERP 2004
    2. ECC 5.0 is having ESA(enterprise Serviceoriented Architecture)
    3.ECC 5.0 is web enabled with Netweaver technology.
    mySAP ERP is the "newer" ERP with numbering conventions like ECC (which stands for ERP Central Component) 5 or 6
    mySAP (aka mySAP.com) Business Suite contains Solutions like CRM, SCM etc. The important thing to note here is that this contains mySAP ERP, the one above
    mySAP All-in-One Solution is designed for smaller companies (the ad that says SAP is not just for large companies but for great companies where the above mentioned functionality is scaled down and is made to run on one database on a PC type of setup as opposed to the full blown architectures on which SAP traditionally set to run

  • From ABAP view, what is the difference between version 4.7 and ECC 6.0 ?

    Hi,
    I am a ABAP developer. I want to know the difference between version 4.7 and ECC 6.0 from a programmer
    perspective.
    I also want to know  what is obsoleted and what is enhanced.
    Thanks.
    Best Regards,
    Chris Gu

    I'm not sure if any of this is in your 4.7 version, but I know it wasn't available in our 4.6C before we upgraded and we have found the following extremely helpful in ECC 6.0:
    1.  The new ABAP Debugger - Search SDN and you'll probably find a bunch of info on these enhancements
    2.  The Enhancement Framework - this is a great new framework allowing enhancements to standard SAP programs without having to use "core Mods".  Had we known about it prior to our upgrade, we could have probably eliminated 75% or so of our custom Z Programs which are copies of standard SAP code  and 100% of our core mods (of which we only have a handful)
    3. Code Inspector and more importantly the ability to turn it on to automatically run when releasing a transport.
    4. The ABAP workbench has changed a bit with a new editor including some minimal code completion.
    5.  Automatic generation of services from any remote enabled function module.
    These are just a few of the things that I've found helpful in an upgraded environment.

  • Difference between SAP 4.7 and ECC 5.0

    hi frnds
    .what is the difference between SAP 4.7 and ECC 5.0?
    regards

    Hi,
    Following are the basic differences as far as MM Module is concerned
    Pickup list - Batch where-used list display in transaction MB56
    u2022 Until release 4.7, the top-down and bottom-up analyses in the function pickup list for batch where-used list (transaction MB5C) were displayed only in the form of simple output lists. As of release 6.00 of SAP ERP Central Component, the function pickup list for batch where-used list branches to the batch where-used list itself (transaction MB56).
    u2022 In addition, user can define how the data in the batch where-used list is displayed, in the initial screen.
    u2022 User can use all the settings available in the batch where-used list. For example, he can expand transfer posting or display vendor batch. However, it is not possible to limit the selection to valid plants in the initial screen of the pickup list.
    Usability enhancements for transaction MIGO for the posting of goods movements
    u2022 For goods movements that refer to purchase orders as reference documents (for example, goods receipt, goods issue, subsequent adjustment), user can specify the ordering plant as an additional selection criterion directly next to the purchase order number and the item number.
    u2022 There is a new default value: "copy account assignment fields." When entering other goods receipts, user can copy existing account assignment data from the previous item to use as the default values for a new item. To do this, user has to set the copy account assignment fields indicator in the default values.
    u2022 User changes the default values in the menu path "Settings -> Default Values."
    u2022 Goods movement is monitored with reference to a material document. When you enter the following goods movements, it is possible to specify a material document, such as the following, as the reference document:
    Goods receipt
    Goods issue
    Transfer posting
    Remove from storage
    u2022 Note that these material documents must be documents that have arisen from a goods movement without reference ("Others") and that are not reversal documents.
    New report : display list of invoice documents (MIR5)
    u2022 Logistics invoice verification offers a new report display list of invoice documents (RMMR1MDI), w hich user can use to display such a list (Transaction is MIR5).
    u2022 As an addition to the existing program invoice overview (transaction code MIR6), user have extended selection criteria and display options. For example, on the initial screen user can make selections by one-time customers, invoice gross amount, and entry date.
    u2022 User can also show an expert mode, which enables him to select at plant level by FI document, GL A/c posting, and Material Posting.
    u2022 In the output list, the report shows both posted and held invoices.
    u2022 It does not show invoices without a corresponding FI document; such as invoices planned for verification in the background or which the software has already verified as containing errors.
    Requirement prioritizations in materials management
    u2022 With Requirement Prioritization functionality user can assign requirement urgency at item level in purchasing and reservation documents.
    u2022 The software determines the relevant requirement priority (overall priority) of a material requisition from the combination of requirement urgency group and organizational priority.
    Mass maintenance of outline agreements
    The following two transactions available:
    u2022 Mass maintenance for contracts: transaction code MEMASSCONTRACT
    u2022 Mass maintenance for scheduling agreements: transaction code MEMASSSA
    Commitment plan for purchase contracts
    u2022 With the function of the commitment plan for purchase contracts, it is possible to pre plan value consumption for a purchase contract.
    u2022 To this end, a commitment plan is generated for each document item of the relevant contract.
    u2022 This commitment plan itself can have any number of items.
    u2022 User can define a value and a validity date for each commitment plan item.
    u2022 This enables user to pre plan different values for different periods of time.
    u2022 The software generates an earmarked fund document for a defined commitment plan item.
    u2022 This earmarked funds document can in turn contain several different items with different account assignments.
    u2022 The software adopts these account assignments from the item account assignments of the commitment plan.
    u2022 If a purchase requisition or purchase order references this contract, the earmarked funds document is copied into the purchase order, and the account assignment is adopted from that document.
    u2022 Account assignment to a different account assignment object is then no longer allowed.
    Availability check in "Enjoy purchase order and requisition"
    u2022 Display and checking of availability are invokable separately in the "Enjoy purchase order and requisition" function, in line with the software behavior on the sales side.
    u2022 User invoke the display and checking of availability in the "Enjoy purchase order" function (transaction code ME21N) and the "Enjoy purchase requisition" function (transaction code ME51N) as follows:
    To display the availability overview, choose the menu path "Environment -> Availability." - To check availability, choose the "Check Availability" icon.
    Until this release, if user carried out the availability check for an item of a stock transport order, the software adopted confirmations as per the desired date/time only.
    u2022 Two settings are possible with availability check:
    Confirmation as per desired date/time (this is the standard setting and corresponds to previous software behavior)
    Delivery proposal - Full confirmation
    External services: putting service items in the purchase order on hold (changed)
    User can put purchase orders with service items on hold if these items do not contain any errors. Purchase orders with service items can also be put on hold if errors occur only at header level or as a result of the availability check.
    Customizing transactions OX18 replaced by view
    The assigned customizing transactions have been replaced by the following view in the following implementation guide activity in customizing for the enterprise structure: Assign plant to company code: transaction OX18 replaced by view V_T001K_Assign. One will find this activity in the implementation guide under the menu path "Enterprise Structure -> Assignment -> Logistics General -> Assign Plant to Company Code."
    Goods receipt: new movement types in inventory management
    The following new movement types are available in inventory management:
    107: Goods receipt to valuated goods receipt blocked stock
    109: Goods receipt from valuated goods receipt blocked stock
    Prepayment of invoices
    This functionality is characterized as follows:
    u2022 User can trigger prepayment of vendor invoices in logistics invoice verification.
    u2022 User use the prepayment function for vendors with whom organisation has a good, long-standing relationship.
    u2022 The function enables payment soon after issue of the invoice and full exploitation of the date of required payment and existing cash discounts, by posting the vendor liabilities, taxes, and cash discounts in financial accounting in advance.
    u2022 The software executes the payment of the invoice regardless of the relevant goods receipt and the outcome of the invoice verification check.
    u2022 Most logistics invoice verification standard functions are not affected by the prepayment function.
    u2022 When the software posts invoices, it continues to execute the standard checks.
    u2022 If the software has already posted the prepayment document, user can make only restricted changes to the header fields of the invoice.
    u2022 To ensure adequate and orderly financial accounting postings, a prepayment clearing account has been added to SAP ERP Central Component.
    u2022 Upon prepayment, the software debits this account and then settles the account again after executing the check.
    Purchasing accounting information to the former SAP Business Information Warehouse
    u2022 With the transfer of the purchasing account information to the former SAP Business Information Warehouse component (whose functionality is now part of SAP Net Weaver), it is now possible to maintain Info Cubes, reports, and queries that can determine how and where the costs from purchasing documents have been assigned and controlled.
    u2022 As part of the software, a new data source (2LIS_02_ACC) has been created and the purchasing extraction process extended to cover the account information for purchasing orders, schedule agreements, and contracts.
    Automatic settlement of planned delivery costs with evaluated receipt settlement (MRDC)
    u2022 A new report (RMMR1MDC), available within the logistics invoice verification, can be used to automatically settle planned delivery costs.
    u2022 To invoke the report, from the SAP easy access screen, choose the menu path "Logistics -> Materials Management -> Logistics Invoice Verification -> Automatic Settlement -> Automatic Delivery Cost Settlement" (transaction code MRDC).
    u2022 Functionality for report RMMR1MRS is enhanced.
    u2022 User can use the report RMMR1MRS, "Evaluated receipt settlement with logistics invoice verification (LIV)" (transaction code MRRL), to settle planned delivery costs in addition to goods and service items within logistics invoice verification.
    u2022 To do so, set the relevant indicator on the initial screen of the report.
    Parking service items
    It is now possible to put service orders without errors or with commitment errors on hold.
    Report MB5B : Stock on Posting Date
    u2022 This Report is available with u201CNon-Hierarchyu201D display option which provides details of Opening, Receipt, Issue and Closing balances of Stock with quantity and value both for a given period.
    u2022 This functionality is not available in Release 4.7.
    Stock Transfer Between Storage Locations
    u2022 Function of stock transport orders between storage locations is available from ECC 6.0 onwards.
    u2022 As a result of which user can input issuing storage location with supplying plant.
    u2022 Facility of using different delivery types for different issuing storage locations is available.
    u2022 Shipping Point data can also be determined based on the issuing storage location

  • Difference between HR in R3 and ECC.

    Hi,
    What is the basic difference difference between SAP HR R/3 and HCM on ECC 6.0?
    Points will be awarded for useful answers.
    Thanks,
    Sandeep.

    Hi,
    The basic difference would be functional enhancement.
    And frankly you would have observed that change of HR role in organization, Now a days HR have moved from support role to strategic role.
    Following points could be considered while discussing on HR....
    HR moving from administrative function to strategic business partner,
    From an HR support role to human capital management (HCM),
    Increasing automation and integration,
    Need for increased HR analysis,
    Employee self-service (ESS)
    In one of Survey of HR professionals around world identified 5 main areas of competency that determine how much value they add to a firm 4 of which can be facilitated through a fully integrated and utilised HRIS.
    1.  Strategic contribution
    2.  Personal credibility
    3.  HR delivery
    4.  Business knowledge
    5.  Use of technology
    Strategic contribution in managing the culture, facilitating “fast change”, strategic decision-making, and creating an organisation continually linked to the realities of the competitive marketplace.
    Personal credibility with HR counterparts, line managers and others within the business as well as external contacts
    HR delivery covering the traditional and operational activities of staffing, development, organisation structure and performance management.
    Business knowledge including an understanding of the business and industry of the company being served.
    Use of technology including the ability to promote technology for HR practices and delivering value to customers.
    *This leads into the changing face of HR and, in fact, changing name to Human Capital Management (HCM) – as SAP now calls their HR module.*
    You may explore the below mention link to explore the functional enhancement of diff. versions.
