OAB - difference between standard rate and variable rate

What is the difference between standard rates and variable rates

These Variable rates will take into effect only when you check the "uses variable rate" check box in standard rate right?
Yes, variable rates are evaluated only if this flag is selected.
You mentioned Standard Rate is the rate you attach to a benefit. Where do we attach?
You donot attach the rate to a benefit in a separate form. You select the compensation object you want to attach the rate to within the standard rates form.

Difference between Temp table and Variable table and which one is better performance wise?

Hello,
Anyone could you explain What is difference between Temp Table (#, ##) and Variable table (DECLARE @V TABLE (EMP_ID INT)) ?
Which one is recommended to use for better performance?
also Is it possible to create CLUSTER and NONCLUSTER Index on Variable table?
In my case: 1-2 days transactional data are more than 3-4 Millions. I tried using both # and table variable and found table variable is faster.
Is that Table variable using Memory or Disk space?
Thanks Shiven:) If Answer is Helpful, Please Vote

Check following link to see differences b/w TempTable & TableVariable: http://sqlwithmanoj.com/2010/05/15/temporary-tables-vs-table-variables/
TempTables & TableVariables both use memory & tempDB in similar manner, check this blog post: http://sqlwithmanoj.com/2010/07/20/table-variables-are-not-stored-in-memory-but-in-tempdb/
Performance wise if you are dealing with millions of records then TempTable is ideal, as you can create explicit indexes on top of them. But if there are less records then TableVariables are good suited.
On Tables Variable explicit index are not allowed, if you define a PK column, then a Clustered Index will be created automatically.
But it also depends upon specific scenarios you are dealing with , can you share it?

Difference between Standard Pricing and Moving Average Price

Hi,
Would like to seek some advises on the difference between standard price and Moving average price.
also, how does it affect the account postings differently?
Thanks

Standard Price
Materials whose price control indicator is set to S are valuated in Financial Accounting (FI) at standard price.
This is recommended for semifinished products and finished products.
The moving average price is shown as a statistical value in the material master record.
The standard price is normally calculated using a standard cost estimate for the material. The standard price can also be calculated in a mixed cost estimate.
Moving Average Price
When materials whose price control indicator is set to V are received from in-house manufacturing processes, they are initially valuated with a value you defined (such as the standard price). When you settle, the material stock account is debited with the variances. This results in a new moving average price.
Valuating semifinished products and finished products with the moving average price is not recommended.

Difference between standard dtp and direct access dtp

Hi,
Can anybody tell me the difference between standard DTP and Direct access DTP other than Help.sap.com.
Regards,
Devi

simple words.. Standard DTP needs to use for Physical data targets loading.
Direct Access DTP needs to use for virtual providers. you won't pull data into BI. it will directly retrive from DS while reporting .

Difference between Standard Hierarchy and Alternate Hierarchy

Hi
Can anyone explain the difference between Standard Heirarchy and Alternate Hierarchy in Controlling.
Thanks in Advance,
Deepthi.

Standard Hierarchy: It is a hierarchy of cost center groups / profit center groups in which all cost centers / profit centers are gathered together in a controlling area.
In order to create cost centers, you require a structure in master data maintenance to which you can assign cost centers. You create this CO structure, the standard hierarchy, when you create a controlling area. If this hierarchy is not present during controlling area maintenance, the system automatically creates the highest node there.

Alternate Hierarchy: The alternate hierarchy setting in the controlling area enables you to name up to two more alternative hierarchies (according to fiscal year), which can be used for the authorization check in the same way as the standard hierarchy (meaning, that inheritance logic is used). You can also deactivate the standard hierarchy as an authorization hierarchy, and use only the alternative hierarchy.

What is the difference between standard,sorted and hash table

can anyone say what is the difference between standard,sorted and hash tabl

Hi,
Standard Tables:
Standard tables have a linear index. You can access them using either the index or the key. If you use the key, the response time is in linear relationship to the number of table entries. The key of a standard table is always non-unique, and you may not include any specification for the uniqueness in the table definition.
This table type is particularly appropriate if you want to address individual table entries using the index. This is the quickest way to access table entries. To fill a standard table, append lines using the (APPEND) statement. You should read, modify and delete lines by referring to the index (INDEX option with the relevant ABAP command). The response time for accessing a standard table is in linear relation to the number of table entries. If you need to use key access, standard tables are appropriate if you can fill and process the table in separate steps. For example, you can fill a standard table by appending records and then sort it. If you then use key access with the binary search option (BINARY), the response time is in logarithmic relation to
the number of table entries.
Sorted Tables:
Sorted tables are always saved correctly sorted by key. They also have a linear key, and, like standard tables, you can access them using either the table index or the key. When you use the key, the response time is in logarithmic relationship to the number of table entries, since the system uses a binary search. The key of a sorted table can be either unique, or non-unique, and you must specify either UNIQUE or NON-UNIQUE in the table definition. Standard tables and sorted tables both belong to the generic group index tables.
This table type is particularly suitable if you want the table to be sorted while you are still adding entries to it. You fill the table using the (INSERT) statement, according to the sort sequence defined in the table key. Table entries that do not fit are recognised before they are inserted. The response time for access using the key is in logarithmic relation to the number of
table entries, since the system automatically uses a binary search. Sorted tables are appropriate for partially sequential processing in a LOOP, as long as the WHERE condition contains the beginning of the table key.
Hashed Tables:
Hashes tables have no internal linear index. You can only access hashed tables by specifying the key. The response time is constant, regardless of the number of table entries, since the search uses a hash algorithm. The key of a hashed table must be unique, and you must specify UNIQUE in the table definition.
This table type is particularly suitable if you want mainly to use key access for table entries. You cannot access hashed tables using the index. When you use key access, the response time remains constant, regardless of the number of table entries. As with database tables, the key of a hashed table is always unique. Hashed tables are therefore a useful way of constructing and
using internal tables that are similar to database tables.

What is the difference between Standard text and Text Symbols?

Hi,
1.Difference between Standard text and text symbol,?
2. Which we use Standard symbol?

Text symbol
Text symbols are symbols representing text elements. In fact, a text symbol can be defined for every text elements. The reading of the form is easier in the SAPscript editor. The name of the text symbol must not exceed 32 characters and its value 60 characters. The value assignement can be done in two ways:
- Using the following command: "/: DEFINE &SYMBOL&='TEST_SYMBOLE'"
- Using a standard text symbol.
The text symbol value is temporary stored. When the print program finishes the execution, the text symbol does not exist anymore. The text symbol must have a value when it is declared.
Also check this link,
http://www.supinfo-projects.com/en/2005/forms_sapscript_en/5/
Standard text are good, if you are using them in more than one SAPScript, because you have to maintain them only once, and not in every SAPScript.
It is really good to write rarely changing texts into the SO10 standard texts (for example company name, and address).
standard text is not always used in scripts. when ever u want to display some data u need to use standard text so that the data gets displayed. Say, u have a large piece of document which needs to be printed at end of script... rather than writing the whole thing in script, we create standard text using SO10 and then use the name along with standard text in script.

Difference between Standard cost and standard price

Hi:
I have gone through google but i could not find any answer to the question clicking my mind. When we talk about standard cost and standard price..Should they be taken synonymously? Are these two same concepts... If there is any difference between two please do let me know..Similarly is there any difference between Actual cost and actual price. Please guide
Br

For Finished Goods, Cost is nothing but your manufacturing or procurement cost.
Where as Price is nothing but your sales price of the same Finished Goods.
Simply when you buy, it is cost and when you sell it is price.
Price includes cost + Profit or loss.
But from SAP point of view Standard Price field in Material master is Standard Cost.
Standard cost will be arrived when we manufacture or procure
Sale price will be entered in Sale order as condition value.

Difference between standard edition and enterprise edition?

Is there any document describing the feature differences between Oracle 9i standard edition and enterprise edition?
Specifically is Oracle Text bundled with the standard edition?
Thanks a lot
James

Hi,
Check this document:
http://metalink.oracle.com/metalink/plsql/ml2_documents.showDocument?p_database_id=NOT&p_id=112591.1
Apart from the features that are present in E.E. and not in S.E., there is little difference (except the license price...).
Note that some seperately purchased options are only available with E.E., not S.E. (e.g. Partitioning, Enterprise Manager Packs).

Difference between this,var and variables

Hi all,
Can you give in simple English "this","var" and "variables"
differ and their purposes?
The docs in google are confusing,Thank you all.

Consider this:
X.CFC
==========================
<cfcomponent>
___<cfset this.foo = "foo"> <--- Public
___<cfset Variables.bar = "bar"> <--- Private
___<cffunction name="tryme">
_____<cfoutput>
______#this.foo#
______#Variables.bar#
_____</cfoutput>
___</cffunction>
</cfcomponent>
==========================
Example 1: You can do this:
<cfobject type="component" component="x" name="xObj">
<cfoutput>#xObj.tryme()#</cfoutput>
It'll output "foo bar"
Example 2: You can't do this:
<cfobject type="component" component="x" name="xObj">
<cfoutput> #xObj.foo# #xObj.bar#</cfoutput>
It'll get upset on the #xObj.bar# part because it's private -
meaning only the CFC can access and manipulate a Variables variable
inside it's CFC.
However #xObj.foo# works because it's public, the CFC can
access and manipulate it's own this variable, and anything outside
of it can too.

Difference between standard costing and average costing

Can someone please explain the difference in simple terms...what are the factors should be considered when selecting which costing we should opt for..
I did get a note from oracle...but couldn't understand much from it
http://docs.oracle.com/cd/A60725_05/html/comnls/us/cst/stdavg.htm
Any advise will be useful
Mahendra

The page really gives a good overview. You may want to sit down with the CFO /Cost Accountant and discuss the page.
But as a rule of thumb:
If the company makes same (or similar) things then you use standard costing. Think of a company making computers, humidifiers, spoons etc.
If the products or activities are not always the same, you use avg. costing. Think of a company making oil rigs or performing repair jobs.
Typically, your client will already have a costing philosophy. Just talk to the CFO/Cost accountant and ask them which method they use.
