Dear Raj,
you can go through the following questions and answers which will help you.
How can a planning version be frozen and unfrozen?
A Planning Version can be frozen and unfrozen using Function Module /SAPAPO/TS_PAREA_VERSIO_FREEZE so that no further changes to the planning version can be done.
What is Release Profile?
Release Profile is used to release timeseries data from DP to SNP/PPDS. You need to define the DP Planning Area and timeseries keyfigure the data in which is released and the SNP Category Type (typically FA) to which data is released. You may maintain a Daily Buckets Profile it will define the number of working days (working days determined based on Shipping Calendar maintained for the location master) starting on and from the From Date if released online/ interactively or that many workdays of the planning horizon when release is carried out in background. The Period Split (blank, 1 and 2) field in the SNP2 tab of location-product master determines how demand plan is released to SNP from DP (how bucketed data is disaggregated to the workdays).
What is the usage of Period Factor?
Period Factor maintained in the SNP PPM or Transportation Lane determines the Availability Date of a Receipt element within a time bucket (period). The system determines the exact availability date/time of the receipt elements within a period, by adding a time interval (that it gets by multiplying the period factor with the period length) to the start time of the period. You can enter a factor between 0 and 1, where 0 is the start of the period, 0.5 the middle, and 1 the end of the period. When calculating the availability date/time, the system takes into consideration all weekdays, meaning that it does not take into consideration any days that have been defined as non-workdays in the calendars.
Period Factor used is .71 = 7x0.71 = 4.97 or 5 days from ptimizer of weekly bucket resulting in a Friday.
If Period Factor is not maintained in PPM or Transportation Lane then the User Period Factor indicator and the Period Factor value maintained in the Lot Size tab of the location-product combination is used. If this is not maintained a default value of 0.5 is used.
What determines stock categories displayed in Stock on Hand keyfigure?
The categories defined in Category Group ST1 (can be maintained in table /SAPAPO/APOCGC) determine the stock categories that are displayed in the Initial bucket in the Stock on Hand keyfigure. Subsequent buckets are dynamically computed.
Does dynamic alerts show up in Alert Monitor?
Dynamic Alerts do not show up in the stand-alone alert monitor. Network alerts are to show pegging relationships.
What is the report to execute MASSD?
The report for executing MassD in background job is MASSBACK.
What is the shortcut to change location type in APO?
Report /SAPAPO/CHECK_LOCATION_TYPE can be used to change location type (say from 1001 to 1002 or vice-versa) of existing locations in APO. The table to refer is /SAPAPO/LOCMAP. SAP does not recommend this process.
How can a transaction be executed even when no authorization?
SE93 - Transaction code for Transaction Code E.g. CRC1 Create Resource has txn code CRAH. So if you do not have authorization to create resource you can use SE93 and enter txn CRAH and then Test F8 button to go to the txn.
How to copy a Process Chain?
To copy a process chain to another process chain, goto the Process Chain you want to copy and then type copy in the tool tar and hit enter. It will allow you to copy the Process Chain to another Process Chain that can be modified as per user's requirement, saved, activated and used.
What is the process to copy planning versions in R/3?
Use OLIX to first delete previous MRP planning versions. Then use MCB& to create the new MRP planning versions by choosing the appropriate version you want to create as ICO Version. The info structure in this case is S094.
How to use create planning book with two tables?
To use two tables on one screen of Planning Book/Data View - select indicator next to second page title and give name. Additional tab page is displayed in Planning Book Maintenance wizard to define the keyfigures for the second table.
What is Master Data in DP?
Master Data in Demand Planning primarily is Charcateristic Value Combinations commonly termed CVCs. CVCs are the planning combinations against which data is stored in keyfigures.
What is the behaviour of Procurement Type X?
Procurement Type X - source selection is based on matching due date then priority then cost. If both In-house Production and External Procuremnet is possible then In-house Production (PPM) is chosen as source of supply.
What is PPDS Fixing Horizon?
PP/DS fixing Horizon defines the PP/DS time Fence - within that period if heuristic is run no orders get changed.
What is the reuse mode in Product Heuristic?
Reuse mode in Product Heuristic - makes the system to reuse orders already present in the heuristic run i.e. orders are not deleted and recreated.
What is Planning Procedure?
Planning Procedure in Product Master (PP/DS) defines that when you convert a planned order to process order it is in Deallocated state and not Scheduled state and more.

EP,ESS/MSS and webdynpro for java interview questions.

I am an ep and ESS?MSS consultant and work on webdynpro for java.I have also worked on PDK like customization of masthead and logon page.I would like to know how to prepare for an interview? I mean what should I read ? and what topics should I cover?

HI Anzar
Instead of posting this here, you could have googled it. There are no. of sites for the same thing.
Since you wrote, so just curious... EP & ESS/MSS Consultant... what does that mean?
If I am not taking it wrong, by that sentence you are trying to tell that you have worked on ESS / MSS modeule. Right?
See, if you are an EP Consultant, you must know all the below atleast -
1. PORTAL SIDE
a. Different types of iView configuration
b. User Management
c. Internal / External Portal Configuration
d. Content development
e. UWL
f. Portal bottlenecks (I mean portal related issues, like slow responding etc.)
g. Display & Desktop Configuration
h. System Landscape Directory
i. NWDI
2. WEB DYNPRO SIDE
a. Calling iviews from wd applications
b. RFC/ BAPI calls
c. JCO Connections
d. SC/DC Concept
e. Import/Export Parameters
f. Scenario Based Answering (like... if your imported BAPI import parameters are changed by BASIS, what will you do to make it work for you.... etc)
g. Singleton/Non-Singleton nodes
h. Controllers
i. Interfaces
j. Multi-lingual Applications
k. EJBs
l. PDK applications
This is the basic list, it can contain many more items... This is the list which I faced for my interview. As an EP consultant, you must be good in both Portal as well as WD end.
1 more thing, every interview is different from other, so no point in just mugging them out. Go through with there concepts. That way, you can answer twisted & scenario based questions.
Hope this will help.

if question solved, close the thread after marking it answered.

SQL Statement for Post-Interview Question

Hello,
I was recently asked a question for an interview and think I got (part of it) wrong, but here is the question followed by my query with output. If someone could show me where I went wrong I would greatly appreciate it. It would be a great learning experience
for me. I think where I fell short was the count of each repeating output row.
Q: There is a table called Member with three columns: MemberID, FirstName, and LastName. We need a query to find how many First Name and Last Name combination duplicates exists.
The desired output is First Name, Last Name, total number times the combination is repeated.
• BONUS question 1: Have the result set with the largest number of duplicates first.
• BONUS question 2: What do you do if there are extraneous leading or trailing spaces on each name cause the same first name last name combination showing up on multiple lines?
SELECT * FROM (
SELECT (ROW_NUMBER() OVER (
ORDER BY a.LastName, a.FirstName, a.MemberID DESC
)) AS ROWNUM
, a.MemberID
, rtrim(ltrim(a.LastName))
, rtrim(ltrim(a.FirstName))
, a.name
FROM User_Details AS a INNER JOIN
(SELECT rtrim(ltrim(LastName)), rtrim(ltrim(FirstName))
FROM User_Details
WHERE LastName !='' AND FirstName != ''
GROUP BY LastName, FirstName
HAVING
(COUNT(*) > 1)) AS b ON rtrim(ltrim(a.LastName)) = rtrim(ltrim(b.LastName)) AND rtrim(ltrim(a.FirstName)) = rtrim(ltrim(b.FirstName))
WHERE 0=0
--first placeholder condition
) AS TEAM_OUTPUT
WHERE ROWNUM BETWEEN 1 and 100
Output:
123456 Allen Michael
123456 Allen Michael
46683 Allen Michael
46683 Allen Michael
71795 Allen Mike
71795 Allen Mike
32171 Allen Mike
32171 Allen Mike
38058 Allen Patricia
32524 Allen Patricia
211454 Allen Susan
34679 Allen Susan
29826 Allen Susan
39684 Allen Teri
77557 Allen Terri
227006 Allen Theresa
107360 Allen Theresa
Thanks,
Buster

Shouldn't it be as simple as
SELECT FirstName, LastName, COUNT(*) AS C
FROM Member
GROUP BY FirstName, LastName
HAVING COUNT(*) > 1
ORDER BY COUNT(*) DESC
(add the LTRIM AND RTRIMs back in to deal with the possible extra spaces)

Want to buy a MacBook Pro - looking for tips, got questions

Dear reader,
I bought a 27" iMac in april 2010 (the late 2009 model) with 8gb of memory, an i7 2,7 GHz quad-core and the Ati Radeon HD 4850 512MB. I really like Apple and Mac but the iMac is not my best gamble. I have alot of eye strain because I have a small desk, and I notice I'm still not at the desired speed level.
*Please note:* I talk alot and I have many questions. If you want to answer 1 or 2 questions and save time, please add the question number and answer that specific question. Thanks!
*This is what I will be using the MacBook Pro for:*
- Photoshop, Indesign, Illustrator. I am a webdesigner/graphic designer (for hobby, still studying) - see wwww.openmindedmedia.nl
- Everything for personal use. I am selling my iMac so I will use this machine for music, watching dvds by connecting it to a tv screen, playing games eventually (Diablo 3), surfing the web
- Word, Excel, etc.
- Sitting outside in the sun (photoshop/illustrator/indesign etc)
- I want to hook it to 2 external LED monitors, both 22-24 inch.
I value speed and quick responses alot. My current iMac is still lacking this.
*This is the setup I had in mind:*
- MacBook Pro 15" 2,2 GHz quad-core i7 with the AMD Radeon HD 6750M with 1GB GDDR5, 4GB memory
- 256 GB SSD
That's € 2575 already, with student discount..
*My questions to you:*
Q1. I multitask alot. At most moments I have mail, firefox, skype, photoshop, path finder, itunes activated at the same time. Is it worth considering the upgrade from 4GB to 8GB? (extra € 185)
Q2. Is it possible to hook the laptop to 2 external monitors? There is only 1 thunderbolt connection for 2 monitors.
Q3. Will this actually be better than my iMac in overall performance? It has a slower processor (from 2,7 GHz to 2,2 GHz), less RAM (from 8GB to 4GB). And I really don't understand how a video card as small as a post card can be as effective as the sandwich-sized videocard in my iMac right now.
Q4 I don't understand this aboult ThunderBolt. If I have an external HDD with ThunderBolt connectivity attached to my MacBook Pro, will that mean I can put alot of programs, music and files on the external hdd and access them even FASTER then when they are on my SSD? Because SSD's have a read speed of something like 200 or 300 mb/s right? But with ThunderBolt I can read with 900 mb/s from a HDD, so would that mean that a HDD with ThunderBolt is 3 times faster than an internal SSD? As in: I could buy a 128GB SSD and put my bigger files on the External HDD to access them even faster. Searched my *** off for an answer.
Q5. Right now I am thinking about NOT taking the apple care protection plan. It's another € 290 and I personally never had any problems with desktop computers. How is your personal advice for this matter? I am only afraid of it getting stolen but that's not covered anyways.
Q6. Do you have any other advices/tips?
I really hope someone (or more than one!) could help me with this. Especially Question 3 (and 4) have my interest.
Thanks alot for your time. Have a good day,
Julius van der Kwast

Hi Julius,
As you can see in my profile section, my MBP is older by 5 years, 2GB RAM and with regards to question 1 (Q1), has no problems with having all those programs open at the same time with the possible exception of Photoshop since I use Gimp instead. With twice the RAM and much overall much better specs, Photoshop shouldn't be an issue. But you listed some other activities that might need that additional RAM. But the advise most give is to not get it from Apple but from a third party.
Q5 - I always get Apple Care. Only had to use it once but it paid for itself that one time.
Sorry, can't help you much with the questions you really want answered since I won't have a new MBP until (hopefully) next week but for Q4, I believe it depends on the peripheral. My current monitors are too old to allow them to be hooked up in a chain. Supposedly, if the monitors do have the ports, you could via the MBP Thunderbolt port. The speeds are also dependent upon the peripheral. If the external hard drive is using a USB 2 port, you are limited by that speed (480 Mb/s). If it has a Thunderbolt port, then from what I understand, we, my friend, are in for some great times because I believe your RAM will have the ability to access data as fast as it can take it at 10Gb/s (and if will need those kinds of speeds, the 8GB of RAM may be the way to go). The Thunderbolt demos on YouTube where they are accessing four video files from a Raid drive, then sending them back out via Final Cut Pro to a monitor are amazing. I'll probably never push this machine to anywhere near it's limits but I can't wait to see what others do.
Peace,
Jeremiah

Interview Question for C# - other problmes

Hi,
I've recently found a good interview question and answer to it placed on that forum - writing a method
protected int GetSum(int from, int to)
At first glance too easy, after reading a good answer I've admitted that's a really good questions.
(https://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/vstudio/en-US/6facee9e-cb42-4e8f-987a-081c68864a08/interview-question-for-c?forum=csharpgeneral )
I'm looking for more questions like this. Thanks for any suggestions.
Sylvia

It shows only that it is a fool who asks this. (the interviewer not the OP)
Nobody should create a function GetSum(int from, int to)
It is only hard to maintain, serves nothing beside that it shows the programmer who made is was paid per line of code.
Normally this is simply
var x = y+z;
Success

I have a question that I think I know the answer to, but am looking for confirmation. I have a dell computer at home that has clip art available on it for putting pictures into documents. Do I need to install an APP to get something similar to clip art?

I have a question that I think I know the answer to, but am looking for confirmation. I have a desktop computer at home that has clip art loaded onto it. I recently got an iPad and am looking for something similar. I assume I need to get an APP for it, and if that is correct, does anyone have one that they like?

Sort of. There is an app called art shop that gives you a place to park clip art. But I don't think you really need it.
If you have a collection of clip art you want available, move it to the camera roll on your pad/ phone, then copy paste into your document the clip you want.
You can get them into the camaera roll by putting them in a single event in your picture library and syncing them over, or e mail them to your self, and save to the camera roll, or send them to drop box, and bring them down that way.
The challenge is getting them all in one place to make it easy for you to find, which is why syncing might be the best approach in the long run.
As near as I can tell there is not a ready made clip art collection in app format laying around.

Hi, I am looking for a printing solution for iPads in the office space, my question is how can I print from iPads and if the iPads are connected to a wifi router on a network would I be able to print from a networked printer?

Looking for an app for a blue tooth, type I want to use on my Iphone is a "jawbone" Question is out of the many available in the store which one would be the best and most reliable?

Looking for an app for blue tooth on my Iphone. Out of the many in the app store which one(s) would be the best & most reliable? Currently trying to set up for an older Jaw Bone?

You are asking several different questions. If you need to store your photos, music, and movies on an external volume, you certainly can. Any externally connected hard disk drive will work, connected either directly to your Mac or to your Time Capsule as a shared volume.
You should not rely upon using that as a backup device though. Although you certainly may use it for both purposes, it is a better idea to have dedicated backup devices for a variety of reasons not limited to redundancy. You would not want to simultaneously lose all your pictures as well as your backup. If they are all on the same device, that could happen. Furthermore, a backup cannot back up the volume on which it is running.
As for adding an Extreme or Express, using its LAN port for your iMac, and then enable Internet sharing so you can effectively use the iMac as a "hotspot", you can do that too, but I am unclear on what benefit you believe this arrangement would convey for you.
An Extreme's Guest network is separate from its Main network; that is the reason for having it.

Click on the Apple and then on about this Mac. In the new window, click on the "version 10.9.2" until you see the serial number displayed.
