What is client in SAP???how to explain as a technical Consultant??

Can anyone giv me a proper Answer
Thanks in Advance.

Hi,
Normally we have 3 clients in our real time scenario.Development,Quality and production client.Each client has different client numbers like 100 ,200, 300. First we develop our applications in development client.We will assign this to a package like ZDE. at this time a request will be assigned .then we will release this from se01 or se10. then we need to import themin quality client. In quality client we have the data which is closed to Production system.Here we will perform all the testing .If any changes we want to do then once again we will do in dev client and transport it to quality.If everything is ok.Then we will transport this to Production client where key users will use our applications.
Hope u understand.

Before taking training I would suggest you, go through the SAP library of BI and get an understanding of BI. When you have an rough idea, then go for training and it will be really useful. You will be able to ask lot of questions as you know already little bit otherwise you won't get time to go through the materials during training as it's so fast. Check the links:

How to email support, no outgoing calls?

How do I email customer support?
I am Manila, Philippines on global roaming, Internet is spotty and intermittent, online chat hours are the middle of the night here. There are no Verizon stores to pop into.
All phones on my account (2 in Ph, 1 in US) have stopped making outgoing calls or text ("outgoing calls not permitted"). I have no way to call support. The My Verizon phone app won't connect.
I am at a complete loss how to contact support for assistance getting our phones working again.
Urgently needing support,
Brian
Manila, Philippines
>Personal info removed<
Message was edited by: Verizon Moderator

Since you can't make calls and there is no longer an option to e-mail Customer Support, I'd suggest the chat feature next ... but that won't work for you due to the time zones. So, one option would be to contact Verizon via their Twitter account:
VZW Support (VZWSupport) on Twitter
Another option is to contact John Bianchi; he's the VP, National Customer Service. Maybe you could explain your situation in an e-mail and he could forward it to the appropriate contact. To e-mail him, go to this link, scroll to the bottom and click the blue Contact John Bianchi:

Daily activities of a support consultant

Hello Masters,
What would be the daily activities of a support consultant?
I am bound to give points
Thanks and Best wishes,
I-BI

HI
These are the Daily Support processes & related links,
***From SDN
Normally the production support activities include
Scheduling
R/3 Job Monitoring
B/W Job Monitoring
Taking corrective action for failed data loads.
Working on some tickets with small changes in reports or in AWB objects.
The activities in a typical Production Support would be as follows:
1. Data Loading - could be using process chains or manual loads.
2. Resolving urgent user issues - helpline activities
3. Modifying BW reports as per the need of the user.
4. Creating aggregates in Prod system
5. Regression testing when version/patch upgrade is done.
6. Creating adhoc hierarchies.
Also refer these posts:
Re: In production Support , how i can acquire the knowledge
Re: How to resolve tickets its urgent
Re: production support issues
production support
we can perform the daily activitiesin Production
1. monitoring Dataload failures thru RSMO
2. Monitoring Process Chains Daily/weekly/monthly
3. Perform Change run Hirerachy
4. Check Aggr's Rollup
To add to the above
1) check data targets are ready for reporting,
2) No failed or cancelled jobs in sm37 monitors and Bw Monitor.
3) All requests are loaded for day, monthly and yearly also.
4) Also to note down time taken for loading of critical infocubes which are used for reporting
5) Is there any break in any schedules from your process chains.
It's totally a client specific tool.
The common features here can be
A ticket Id,
Priority,
Consultant ID/Name,
User ID/Name,
Date of Post,
Resolving Time etc.
There ideally is also a knowledge repository to search for a similar problem and solutions given if it had occurred earlier.
You can also have training manuals (with screen shots) for simple transactions like viewing a query, saving a workbook etc so that such queried can be addressed by using them.
When the problem is logged on to you as a consultant, you need to analyse the problem, check if you have a similar problem occurred earlier and use ready solutions, find out the exact server on which this has occured etc.
You have to solve the problem (assuming you will have access to the dev system) and post the solution and ask the user to test after the preliminary testing from your side.
Get it transported to production once tested and posts it as closed i.e. the ticket has to be closed.
---If there is a dataload failure, what steps/checks do i need to follow. Etc.
it means thats depends upon the failure we need to monitor and take corrective action ..
generally we do in load failures...
ST22 for any shortdumps
sm21 for log entries and
TRF entries
sm12 for any locks
we need to analyze from these t-codes.
Changing query/object
-change ticket from open to working.
-get additional details if any required.
-create transport request in dev.
-make the change and save in transport.
-check that transport goes through OK.
-do testing in QA system.
-after testing is OK,get change transported to prod.
-update ticket and resolve it.
-usually helpdesk closes ticket after confirmation with user who raised ticket.
data load failure
-regularly check rsmo(monitor) for data load failures.
-if load fails,get details from details tab of monitor.
-usual errors are:master data missing,special characters in data,datasource not replicated,delta load issues etc.
-get root cause of error,and fix data load manually.
-check that manually updated data is GREEN and available for reporting in data target.
-update ticket and resolve it.

Persistent Wi-Fi connection problem: How to get support?

I bought my iPad few days ago in Hawaii and returned home yesterday to Germany. I had connected Wi-Fi a few times at my B&B in Hawaii and it seemed to work. But now Wi-Fi connection with my iPad is a mess while connections with iPhone, MacBook Pro, PC at the same locations work very good.
I tried several solutions including those recommended by http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3304. Additionally I tried to manually assign IP to my iPad.
On different locations (i.e. airport, at home) the Wi-Fi connection indicator fluctuates and connection speed seems to drop down. Just right now connection is lost approx. every 5 - 15 minutes. Switching Wi-Fi off and reconnecting sometimes helps but sometimes I have to wait some 5 or 15 minutes until Wi-Fi works again. Sometimes I even have to reset all connection data. When Macbook, iPhone or Windows PC show me 10 available Wi-Fi networks the iPad may only list 2 or 3.
Yes, I tried to contact Apple Support:
"If after attempting the troubleshooting tips provided above you are still having difficulty connecting to a network please contact Apple."
I called your support phone number 1-800-275-2273 several times from Germany but each time the system tried to connect me to an iPad advisor the call didn't go through.
Several tries to open a case via http://www.apple.com/support/expert/ failed. After filling out the form the website just tells me: "We're sorry, but we are unable to complete your request at this time. Please try again in a few minutes or start over now." Next try same result.
You link to worldwide support telephone numbers:
http://www.apple.com/support/contact/
http://www.apple.com/support/contact/phone_contacts.html
I called the given German technical support number but Apple Support denied support and instructed me to reset the iPad to it's original state. Resetting the iPad did not resolve the problem.
German Support told me she has no information ("no email received") about http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3304. She told me Apple Support in Germany will not give any else support prior to official start of iPad availability in Germany. But when German Apple Support is not even aware of that problem Apple posted on the support site how would they support me?
How do I get support to resolve that issue?

I configured my router to only use 802.11b and 802.11g and NOT 802.11n. It seems like my iPad keeps steady connection with two or three bars and recovers good from sleep mode since about half an hour sigh But I would like to use it also at hotspots... and would like to enjoy appropriate speed when transfering files or watching videos

How to explain. OK 1st all photos are visible in my iPhoto library; however, some are stored on hard drive and some are stored on external. All can be viewed in itunes, but none on the external will sync to my iPad. What's up with that.

How to explain. OK 1st all photos are visible in my iPhoto library; however, some are stored on hard drive and some are stored on external. All can be marked or unmarked in itunes, but none of the photos stored on the external drive will sync to my iPad. Anybody know what's up with that?

What really cheeses me off here is that Apple isn't allowing users enough customization. With each update of iTunes (and the OS and iOS) we're forced to give up something that worked well for the way we want to use the app and make do with fewer (and lamer) options. If Apple keeps this up, they're going to start losing customers fast. I mean if this isn't fixed soon, I'm pretty sure I'm going to give up on iTunes, and then I'll probably go ahead and get a Galaxy when I need to replace my iPhone.
What I don't understand about how they won't let users delete the list of available podcasts now is why? How is this making it a better program? I can understand that not all users are capable enough to right-click on a feed and select "Show all available episodes", so I can see why they want the complete list to be the default (and, surprise, it already was). But to not give users the option to delete that list? It's inconsiderate because it makes navigating feeds with a large back catalogue really frustrating. I'm flabbergasted that no one at Apple considered all the podcast feeds that keep hundreds of episodes available when they removed this feature. It smacks of rank incompetence.
What improvement were they trying to make here anyway? There was nothing wrong to my mind about how podcasts were managed in previous versions. Whatever improvement they were trying to make here, they should have realized that many users would at least want the option to keep things the way they were.
And reverting to a previous version is no solution. I can't sync my iPhone with the new iOS without this update, and (while I do have some issues--specifically how you can't play podcasts in the Music app anymore) I do like the new iOS.

Automatic payment program how to explain in interviewes

hi friends
asking automatic payment program explanation in interviewes. how to explain the automatic payment program pls tell me my mail id [email protected]

The payment program can be broken down into the following steps:
1. Define parameters (Parameters TAB on the F110 screen)- Based on the parameters defined the program picks up the vendor 'open' items to be paid and displays them in the payment proposal. The parameters tell the program the following:
    a. Which company codes you want to include in this payment run (If the AP cleark who is running the program is responsible for only North American companies, he/she will include only those company codes in the payment run)
    b. Which Vendor you want to pay (suppose there are lot of AP clerks in an organization, they can use this to restrict the selection to the vendor for whom they are responsible for payment)
    c. What are the payment methods you want to use to pay these vendors
    d. What is the next date when you will run payment run. Based on this date the program picks up all the items which become due till the next date of payment run, even though those open items are not due today.
2. Free selection TAB - In this TAB you can restrict the 'open' items you want to select. You can use any field in the BSEG table and restrict the selection. For e.g. You can select the field ' Document no.' from BSEG and give a range of documents you want to pay. The program will pick up only those documents for payment.
3. Additional Log TAB - In this TAB you can select the logs you want the system to create if there are any errors or for all items even if there are no errors. If the results of the program is not what you expected, then you can read the log to understand the reason why the program did not select what you wanted.
4. Print/data medium TAB - Here you supply the program variant for all the payment methods you are using. For e.g. in US if you use the 'Check' payment method, then in this TAB you supply the variant for the RFFOUS_C program. If you are using EDI payment method then a variant for the program RFFOEDI1 has to be supplied in this TAB.
5. Status TAB - Once you enter all the information in the above 4 TAB's you will come to the status TAB.
Initial status will be 'No Parameters have been entered'
Before you run the program, the status would be 'Parameters have been defined'.
After you run the proposal the status will change to 'Payment proposal has been created'.
After you run the Payment run the status will change to 'Payment run has been carried out. Posting orders: 10 generated, 10 completed'.
Thus the status tells you in what stage of the Payment program you are in.
Please note that the buttons you see here is dynamic. Based on the status the button will appear or disappear. But all the functionalities which these buttons offer can also be selected using the dropdown list appearing at the top of the screen.
6. After you completed the payment run, you have to print the payment media - If the payment method used is check, you print checks. If it is wire then you create the wire file etc. This is the last step in the payment run.
Important Note: After running the proposal, you should not leave the payment program. Either you should complete the payment run completely , all the way till you print the payment media, or delete the payment proposal.
If you do not delete the proposal, then the vendors in this proposal will not be included in any of the subsequent payment runs.
Hope this helps you in answering your Interview questions.
Good luck.

How to explain the business requirement of a file to rfc scenario

Hello Experts,
 How do i explain the business requirement of
 1. FILE TO IDOC.
 2. FILE TO RFC.
 3. FILE TO JDBC scenarios?
 Cud anybody explain me how to explain the requirement of these scenarios in an interview?Cud u pls send me the example for these and the systems involved and the documents involved...helpful answers will be rewarded...
 cheers
 Jay.
my mail : [email protected]

1. FILE TO IDOC.
When u have ur master data stored in a file thru a legacy system say in some xml format then u may need to have this scenario configured.
2. FILE TO RFC.
Consider pt1 but here for example consider delete scenario. when u have deleted the mater/transaction u may need to update another file...so in this case u will need to config this scenario...y we cannot use idoc is becoz sync scneario is not possible with idoc but yes with rfc
3. FILE TO JDBC scenarios?
u have some business data extracted from a file and before u update a r3 transaction u may need to refer a datbase table to read some data baed on keyfield...so u will take a jdbc response and based on that u may validate with the data for r3 updation.
the scenario keeps varying in real life and the above are very few examples of the kind of scenario that would exists in the business world
