Thanks in advance.

Nithi.

Hi Nithi,
1 ) MDM has Coding or do we have only navigation.
2 ) Is programming knowledge is essential for MDM.
3 ) How is the future for MDM.
1. MDM has no coding in it. However, we can use ABAP or Java API's etc, for additonal functionalites. But for MDM, no coding is required.
2. MDM is basically a configuration based tool. There is a lot of modeling which is done according to the requirement.We have 4 GUis' namely Console, Import Manager,Data manager and Syndicator. We can get them installed and access the MDM server via them.
3. MDM is a hot cake in the market right now as companies are thinking of moving into ESOA and for that MDM will be the base of it as you need to have clean Master data to achieve ESOA.
For additonal info, pl go through the link below:

I want to learn MDM

Hi..Friends,
I am having 2 years exp on SAP XI. i am planing to learn MDM , is it suggestable or not. pls suggest me
Thanks,
Pasi.

Hi Pasi,
MDM stands fro Master data Management and it is used to import the master data from various source systems, cleans it, manages it, governs it and export the data back to the source systems.
Hence, there is a lot integration involved when it comes to MDM. And sometimes when the format of file exchange is not same between MDM and the other systems, a middle war is required. And as you have experience in XI, you can always use that knowledge in MDM scenarios and projects.
So, by extending your knowledge bank to MDM, you can become very valuable in the market. Also, as companies will be moving to ESOA, MDM will become more important in the landscape as MDM is the base for ESOA.
MDM is a hot cake in the market and I would adive you to go with it. Please refer to some very useful links which are very useful for people who are thinking of learning MDM. The links answer important questions such as How is career in MDM and how to learn MDM etc.
Please go through these links below for better understanding:

Want to learn SAP NetWeaver.

Hi All
I have 2.5 years of Experience in developing java/j2ee applications. I am interested in Learning SAP Netweaver. Can u please suggest me the carrer prospects in this field.
I am good at Java,J2SE, please also let me know which modules of Netweaver suits to me.
I dontnt have any knowledge in SAP i.e ABAP
Thanks in Advance
W.Mahendra

On other hand, I'll say that I'm also mostly a NewGen girl (C#.NET, WCF/WWF/WPF, J2EE, JBoss, jBPM, ...), and from some point of view ABAP is refreshing.
From my up to now really short experience (a few days), programming SAP NetWeaver in ABAP is rather simple...
Besides, maybe a stronger argument for ABAP :
From what I can see using "/h" (debug mode), it looks like most SAP is in fact in ABAP, so if you're planning on working in SAP, isn't ABAP a better choice ? Or do SAP plan on abandonning ABAP for JAVA ?
Any opinions on these last thoughs?

Bonjour VAGRAI
1) To write math expressions in a text :
     — Microsoft Office 2011 etc. for Mac use its included Equation Editor.
     — OpenOffice.org (OOo) and NeoOffice : download free Dmath 3.3.
     — iWork (Pages, Numbers, Keynote), download free MathType 6.7, fully functional for 30 days, then becomes « Lite » for life as good as the Microsoft equation editor ; it’s better than using Grapher’s equation editor (Applications > Utilities) because MathType can be called from Pages and allows editing equations by clicking the math expressions your text (details on MathType website) .
     — Graph.app 2.3 in Mountain Lion is built to draw curves and surfaces from equations, so it uses an equation editor less powerful than mathType, but it’s easier typing expressions. You may get 2D 3D geometrical drawings from clever equations. Suggest a glance at   http://y.barois.free.fr/grapher/ to know all about Grapher (83 pages Instructions for Use - Grapher) and some examples
2) Geometrical schema :
     — GeoGebra is very popular and used by math teachers.
     — Google SketchUp 8 was not built for mathematics but for architecture, but it’s very easy using it to draw 2D 3D surfaces and solid figures.
     — ShapeOnYou.app allows simples geometrical figures http://pierre.chachatelier.fr/programmation/shapeonyou_en.php
3) Some useful websites for screen shots of geometrical schema :
     http://www.mathcurve.com/
     http://perso.orange.fr/roger.assouly/
Drawings files PDF, TIFF, JPG … can be inserted in an iWork window (Pages).
I hate LaTex : not necessary to write math books !
Au revoir VAGRAI,
YB24
Attachment : lines and curves were made with Google SketchUp 8, screen copied (Command-Shift-4), inserted on a Pages sheet to add letters figures rectangles title.
SketchUp allows drawing precisely an arc of circle 325 mm radius 22,5° angle for instance.

WANT TO DO CERTIFIATON IN SIEMENS AND THEY OFFERING E-LEARNING..IS IT GOOD

WANT TO DO CERTIFIATON IN SIEMENS AND THEY OFFERING E-LEARNING..IS IT GOOD TO LEARN E-LEARNING THEIR B COZ I AM NEW TO SAP-XI..PLZ GUID ME ... THEY OFFERING XI-3.0 IS IT GOOD TO LEARN 3.0 OR 7.0 PLZ HELP ME..

Hi Krishna,
<i>WANT TO DO CERTIFIATON IN SIEMENS AND THEY OFFERING E-LEARNING..IS IT GOOD TO LEARN E-LEARNING THEIR B COZ I AM NEW TO SAP-XI.</i>
The best thing would be..try to check out if your company is giving the SAP XI training. Try to attend so if yes. I don't think e-learning would be of so much help. I mean u need to do a lotta RnD then and study. Better try to attend the certified training.
Get the details here:
WHT IS THE DIFFERANCE BETWEEEN XI 3.0 AND XI 7.0?
For certification, it is important for u to go thru the TBIT materials:
TBIT40 (XI Fundamentals)
TBIT41 (Mapping Concepts)
TBIT42 (Adapter Concepts)
TBIT43 (Business Process Management Concepts)
TBIT44 (Mapping, Adapters and BPM)
Check out this-
/people/community.user/blog/2006/11/03/a-beginners-guide-to-xi-certification-details
See this threads on certification:
regardig Certification
for xi certification...
Re: regarding certification in SAP-XI
XI certification questions
<i>THEY OFFERING XI-3.0 IS IT GOOD TO LEARN 3.0 OR 7.0</i>
Well, XI 3.0 and XI 7.0 rather it is PI 7.0 are identical. Only some of the features of the XI 3.0 are enhanced. And PI7.0 is a part of SAP nw2004s platform.

I do not want the learner to be able to click through the project until they hear the audio recorded on each slide, however I also would like them to have click to advance to the next slide. Is there a way to set up these 2 functions together?

I do not want the learner to be able to click through the project until they hear the audio recorded on each slide, however I also would like them to have click to advance to the next slide. Is there a way to set up these 2 functions together?

I don't like that approach for adult learners, cannot refrain from mentioning that.
Don't use a playbar but create custom navigation. You'll need a next button on each slide that appears after the audio (in timeline). Since slides will not all have the same duration you'll need an individual button per slide, a shape button on master slide or timed for the rest of the project will not be possible.

For all the newbies who wants to learn Java

I was a newbie like 4 months ago. i have some skills of OOP in C++ like 2 years back but since then i did'nt took any of programming language courses. I have experience in MSaccess and MYsql. i did my internship Last summer with Tennessee Education Lottery as a Database Analyst. At that time i realized what a Corporate Enviorment looks like. Trust me it was a formal interview and i passed it and they placed me in the IT department to write some scripts for the GUI terminal and at the same time create a Company Security Database. i did completed my project but i had to Learn Mysql. and then i realized Java was getting very popular. alot of people told me in the forums to go Java tutorial but i will not agree to start from the sun tutorial. you can do it only if you have a good or may be medium experience of OOP. it was really tough for me and then this magic guy came on the forum and told me to go on this website if you want to learn Java.
http://chortle.ccsu.edu/java5/cs151java.html
This site is a brilliant site specially the exercise problems and the quizes really attracted me to Java alot and now i came to realize how easy it is to program in Java rather than C++. Java forums have helped me alot in solving those exercise problems (not with the code but with a good explanation) which was very helpful for me. out of my 210 post i guess i have helped 30 people out and the rest of the questions are regarding those exercises. i came to know encapsulation, inheritance and all that stuff. though i am still not very perfect like i am still having trouble with ComparTo thing but it takes more practice. the more you practice the more you learn. so all the newbies if you really want to learn java even if you dont have any experience in OOp this is the site where you need to start. Hope this will definitely help you alot. thanks to all the Senior members navycoder, captain, paulcw, duffy, turingpest and others also who have helped me in the past. without you i would have not achieved the goal of learning java. now my next step is going to be learn GUI programming Swing. looks fun to me. but at the same time i have my final project for this semester to make on ONline Testing program which will have a database, php scripting and html and xml.
I will post if i have any problems

I want to Learn webcenter

I want to Learn Oracle WebCenter.
Please guide me.
I have jdeveloper 11g(11.1.2.3.0) installed.
Thanks,
Dilip

What steps have you taken so far?
There are Oracle University classes that are quite good.
There are many blogs out there that are quite good.
There is the Oracle.com WebCenter homepage that contains the documentation, software, and community links. It is also quite good.
There are many resources available to start learning, but you must take the first step and read. Read the blogs, read the forums, but most of all, read the documentation. At least the summaries and table of contents to see where information is. When you need to answer a question, to to the manual. Chances are, there's a walkthrough just waiting to be followed.
Here's a quick starter:

Anyone here have good experience with iPhone compatible Ip Cameras?

Hi
i wanted to know if anyone here actually owns a decent camera they can recommend with a iPhone that records to SD remotely or when motion detection is activated (remotely), has night vision, an zoom tilt or simply works so good and you can use a few at the same time.
i tried a few lower end linkseys and d-links models as well as rimax fixed and wireless models, all which where a mess to set up since the software was written for PCs and some only ran on internet Explorer which does not exist on mac osx any more.
So please let me know
Cheers

How does working in wide screen seem when you want full pages?
I have a Dell 20+ (24", I think) at the office. It is 9:16 ratio and a delight to use with InDesign. I regularly compose with binding in mind, so this allows me to have pallets open and view the full spread at the same time. However, if you are needing large type on your icons and menu bars, then you will lose a lot of real estate. I'm not sure you will be able to get the full benefit I receive. I have the resolution set to the monitor's native resolution.
At home, I work with a 15" laptop (9:16) and a second monitor (4:3) that is the same width as the laptop. The second monitor is an LCD and very old (hardware age), so it doesn't do well at the same resolution the laptop does. But the laptop is shorter than the old monitor. Anyway, I do my page view on the laptop because of the better resolution. I put all my menus and pallets on the other monitor. This works well.

Want to Learn about J2ME

I am begineer in J2ME
I have a good knowledge of J2SE and some of J2EE.

I want to learn more about linux

So, I started off with Ubuntu about 5 months ago. It was spring break and I got bored of Ubuntu so I decided to install Arch. Things went well and I have never looked back. After about a month of really customizing and figuring stuff out I felt smarter, but when I put things into perspective I still feel as though I am lacking knowledge.
I have currently come to a point where I love my setup and don't want to change stuff in case I mess it up. Don't worry I have good news. I will be receiving a laptop soon and that is going to be my guinea pig for the summer.
Some of my ideas so far:
1) learn vim - I tried it back in my Ubuntu days, but it was too hard so I just used nano. I now feel as though I should know how to use it...
2) try a tiling window manager - With Arch came openbox, and although it was very different from gnome / explorer.exe it has grown on me and I could never go back.
3) learn to program - I know some very basic stuff, but I could never make a functional program. Considering I am going into "computer engineering" next year it may be a good idea.
any suggestions on other things (chances are I haven't done it), or how to do the ones already on my list would be awesome.

1) learn vim - I tried it back in my Ubuntu days, but it was too hard so I just used nano. I now feel as though I should know how to use it...
Why bother? Just learn the deleat comands, the input comands, the save commands, and paste commands. Don't let the editor rule you, it is ment to be used.
2) try a tiling window manager - With Arch came openbox, and although it was very different from gnome / explorer.exe it has grown on me and I could never go back.
I wouldn't bother. I tried a tiling WM, but I'm on KDE mod atm, and while I miss cirtain things, I think I found most of them in non tiling WM. I especialy recoment JWM, it's funny at first, but I grew to love it, and my KDEmod works very similarly now
3) learn to program - I know some very basic stuff, but I could never make a functional program. Considering I am going into "computer engineering" next year it may be a good idea.
I suggest Python, as it has many great resorces (I suggest "Learning Python", by O'Reilly) and is commenly used. It also gets you into many good habits (forced indentation, easy documentation strings, and general good code manners), and the syntax is very clean.
any suggestions on other things (chances are I haven't done it), or how to do the ones already on my list would be awesome.
Learn how to use bash properly. By that I mean being able to use almost all of bash's features. It's an incredibly powerfull tool, and you do it a disservice if you do not learn it fully.

I want to learn about workflow any one can provide the guidence for me

i want to learn about workflow any one can provide the guidance for me

SAP Business Workflow can be used to define business processes that are not yet mapped in the R/3 System. These may be simple release or approval procedures, or more complex business processes such as creating a material master and the associated coordination of the departments involved. SAP Business Workflow is particularly suitable for situations in which work processes have to be run through repeatedly, or situations in which the business process requires the involvement of a large number of agents in a specific sequence.
Features
SAP Business Workflow provides a number of tools for defining and analyzing workflows as well as for monitoring operation.
The Workflow Builder is for displaying and making changes to workflows. You can make small extensions directly to the original workflows supplied by SAP, such as carrying out your own agent assignments or changing deadline monitoring.
There are several Workflow Wizards to support you in the definition of workflows, with which you can create specific parts of a workflow. The Workflow Wizard Explorer gives you an overview of the existing Workflow Wizards.
In order to make the functions of the R/3 Systems available to a workflow, you use business objects, which you can define and analyze in the Business Object Builder. These business objects are made available to the workflow in reusable tasks. The Business Wizard Explorer gives you an overview of all existing tasks.
You can also use SAP Business Workflow to respond to errors and exceptions in other, existing business processes. You can start a workflow when predefined events occur, for example an event can be triggered if particular errors are found during an automatic check.
