The difference between SOAP adapter and WS adapter in PI 7.1

Hello all,
can anybody explain what is the main difference between SOAP adapter and WS adapter in PI 7.1?
I have checked this [link|http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nwpi71/helpdata/en/0d/5ab43b274a960de10000000a114084/frameset.htm]
but was not able to find the real difference.
Or better, what can I do with WS adapter I can't do with SOAP adapter? What are their advantages/disadvantages?
Thank you all, Igor.

In addition to RM, ws adapter also support other ws standard like SAML which is not available in SOAP adatper. Beside:
if your sender or receiver is SAP system, you can also monitor the message in the sender/receiver in addition to the PI box. This is a very good thing, because sometime the MONI in PI shows nothing wrong, but the MONI in your receiver will show you error message that's only related to the receiver system.
However, if you define ws sender CC, and your ws client doesn't support RM, you will have issue sending ws request.
And ws CC will generate ws runtime in PI box, if your configuration is wrong (like user name and password not correct), even if you correct it, the ws runtime sometime won't be regenated based on the correction. In this case you need to delete the ws CC/agreement, and re-create it with all correct information.
Beside make sure your basis team configured the PI system properly regarding ws. If not, you will have lot of pain to figure the problem which was my case.

Can Anybody explain me the difference between a Bapi and a webservice?

Can Anybody explain me the difference between a Bapi and a webservice?

Hi Anil,
<b>BAPI</b>
BAPI is a library of functions that are released to the public
as an interface into an existing SAP system from an external
system.A BAPI function is a function module that
can be called remotely using the RFC technology
BAPI are RFC enabled function modules. the difference between RFc and BAPI are business objects. You create business objects and those are then registered in your BOR (Business Object Repository) which can be accessed outside the SAP system by using some other applications (Non-SAP) such as VB or JAVA.
In this case you only specify the business object and its method from external system in BAPI there is no direct system call. while RFC are direct system call Some BAPIs provide basic functions and can be used for most SAP business object types. These BAPIs should be implemented the same for all business object types. Standardized BAPIs are easier to use and prevent users having to deal with a number of different BAPIs. Whenever possible, a standardized BAPI must be used in preference to an individual BAPI. It is not possible to connect SAP to Non-SAP systems to retrieve data using RFC alone. RFC can acces the SAP from outside only through BAPI and same is for vice versa access.
<b>Webservice</b>
In simpler terms, WebService is an application on the Web/Internet. Wheneever Service is requested by the user, it provides the service (i.e Request/Response)
A web service is a collection of protocols and standards used for exchanging data between applications or systems
In SAP world, we can expose an application into the Webservice. For e.g We can expose ABAP programs into Webservice.
XI uses SOAP adapter to communicate with webservices see below...why only soap adpater???
-> Some remote clients or Web services providers are only able to communicate by means of SOAP messages
->SOAP adapter enables you to exchange SOAP message between remote clients and Web Service Servers and the Integration Server.
-> The SOAP Adapter provides a runtime environment that includes various SOAP components for the processing of SOAP message.
-> You use the SOAP adapter to connect such systems to the Integration Server directly
-> The SOAP adapter uses a helper class to instantiate and control these SOAP components
->The SOAP adapter receives a msg from the remote client or Web service provider, converts the SOAP protocol into XI msg protocol and then sends the msg to the Integration Server to be processed further.
Basically RFCs BAPI are all SAP oriented, Webservices are language / environement independent. So, all one has to do is publish a Webservice and any external system by providing the data in the correct format, can get the approopriate response back.

What is the difference between Video-out and mirroring?

What is the difference between Video-out and mirroring? I can't get iPhone 4 video to work on my TV screen
I have just bought an MD098ZM/A (Apple 30-pin Digital AV Adapter). I am struggling to get it to show a picture on my TV. I know I'm doing something right because the audio is coming out of my TV speakers but no picture on the TV screen.
I have used the same HDMI channel (on the TV side) with the same cable and my thunderbolt port (MacBook Air) without any trouble - and on the same app (BBC iPlayer download then full-screen mode).
Now I note that the packaging for the MD098ZM/A says video-out on iPhone 4 but mirroring only on iPhone 4S. I only have an iPhone 4 (not the 4S). Now if the lack of iPhone 4 support for mirroring means that I can't play video material out to my TV, then in what sense is there any video-out capability at all?
There is only safety and warranty paperwork in the Apple adapter packaging - no help information. And I haven't found further guidance online either.
I do note somewhere online that it suggests that basic non-mirroring video-out (for this adapter) only works with some external TV sets. Any way of finding out which? I'm using a Sanyo CE32LD90-B LCD TV if it helps.
So far not doing very well.

Now found these but have had to give up on this adapter!

What's the difference between reguler KDE and KDEmod?

Hello all,
In two weeks I get my new laptop, which will be capable of running Arch and KDE ( as my current computer isn't, somehow it only runs Fedora w/ Gnome)
Since I really like Arch and already got it working on Virtualbox, I want to install it on my new laptop. I'd like to get it working with KDE, but I noticed Arch also has KDEmod. I already searched the forums but couldn't really find an answer to my question: What is the difference between regular KDE and KDEmod and which one is better for me to use?
Thanks in advance!

Allan, i forgive you for your poor paragraph construction and sorry for me being a bit peeved
However, i know you have read more from the IRC log than just that one sentence by me...
Allan wrote:
From the IRC log, I do not think that conclusion is too far off, especially if you are considering Arch-Stable as your base... So saying "plain wrong" seems... well... plain wrong. Especially given the irc log:
<funkyou> in one sentence: to do what we really want to do, we need a stable platform.
So why not showing the whole picture and clear this up:
<funkyou> ok, to start: i think at least some of you have noticed that arch linux is a fine platform for what we want to deliver, but there are some little "annoyances"
<funkyou> mainly:
<funkyou> -.so bumps every few weeks
<funkyou> -the general "freshness"
<funkyou> -a lot of manual interaction needed (sometimes)
<funkyou> everyone can see these problems when looking at the forums, _most_ of them are related to updates
<funkyou> in one sentence: to do what we really want to do, we need a stable platform.
Makes more sense now? Its not that Arch is too unstable, its just that we cant keep up will all the changes... And this is not Archs "fault" nor anyone elses fault, its just going too fast for us. Most annoying or severe bugs in our tools are there due to upstream updates. And the reasons are not really the .so bumps (which are mostly solved by a simple rebuild) but also constantly changing apis and stuff. This is not a big problem in KDE (they keep their apis clean), but a big one when it comes to other stuff like parted, to give an example. And this is our main problem, we need to constantly adapt our code to upstream changes.
This even resulted in a repo with modified or "frozen" Arch packages just to keep our liveCD going, and now we are looking for solutions for this problem, and "stable" snapshots seem to be one way... Oh, and if we would do this (there is nothing announced yet), we would do our own snapshot every X months because ArchStable seems to be a dead project. We also considered cooperating with the ArchServer guys, but their stuff is really made for servers, so even while their project is really nice its not really an option for us.
Well, we'll see what we will do during the next months, now we are still testing and evaluating some solutions... Oh, and people, please stop any "we dont need another ubuntu" complaints...

What is the difference between smart forms and scripts.?

what is the difference between smart forms and scripts.?

Differences between Smartforms and SAPscript
a) Multiple page formats are possible in smartforms which is not the case in SAPScripts
b) It is possible to have a smartform without a main window .
c) Routines can be written in smartforms tool.
d) Smartforms generates a function module when activated.
e) Smartforms can create web enable forms like XML
f) smartforms itself contine subroutine pools need not to main separetly like in case of scripts
Request you to refer the following links
www.sap-img.com/smartforms/smartform-sapscripts.htm
www.erpgenie.com/abap/smartforms_sapscript.htm
Sapscript vs Smartforms
Difference with SMARTFORMS vs. SapScript(SE71)
The Following are the differences :-
a) Multiple page formats are possible in smartforms which is not the case in SAPScripts
b) It is possible to have a smartform without a main window .
c) Labels cannot be created in smartforms.
d) Routines can be written in smartforms tool.
e) Smartforms generates a function module when activated
Scripts are client dependent whereas smartforms aren't.
Upto 99 main windows are possible in scripts and only one in smarforms.
To create multiple main windows in scripts, you just have to give the window type as MAIN whnever you create a window.
Scripts still exists but smartforms are in use from 4.6c version, now the lastest version of these two is adobe forms
SAP Smart Forms is introduced in SAP Basis Release 4.6C as the tool for creating and maintaining forms.SAP Smart Forms allow you to execute simple modifications to the form and in the form logic by using simple graphical tools; in 90% of all cases, this won't include any programming effort. Thus, a power user without any programming knowledge can
configure forms with data from an SAP System for the relevant business processes.
Advantages of SAP Smart Forms
SAP Smart Forms have the following advantages:
1. The adaptation of forms is supported to a large extent by graphic tools for layout and logic, so that no programming knowledge is necessary (at least 90% of all adjustments). Therefore, power user forms can also make configurations for your business processes with data from an SAP system. Consultants are only required in special cases.
2. Displaying table structures (dynamic framing of texts)
3. Output of background graphics, for form design in particular the use of templates which were scanned.
4. Colored output of texts
5. User-friendly and integrated Form Painter for the graphical design of forms
6. Graphical Table Painter for drawing tables
7. Reusing Font and paragraph formats in forms (Smart Styles)
8. Data interface in XML format (XML for Smart Forms, in short XSF)
9. Form translation is supported by standard translation tools
10. Flexible reuse of text modules
11. HTML output of forms (Basis release 6.10)
12. Interactive Web forms with input fields, pushbuttons, radio buttons, etc. (Basis-Release 6.10)

Q<WWO-13> What are the difference between WLS6.1 and WLS7.0 web services?
A<WWO-13> The differences are huge, so different in fact that 6.1 web services cannot
be deployed in 7.0. WLS7.0 and Workshop have much greater functionality than the
limited stateless session (RPC-style) and JMS destination (MSG-style) approach of
6.1. Workshop web services can interact with any type of EJB, any JMS destination
as well as other web services and directly accessing databases. The framework for
building the web service is better and more adaptable and Workshop provides a fully
integrated develop, deploy, test and debug environment. Additionally, WLS7.0 have
the capacity to be much better at performance since due to XML parser enhancements
and the addition of XML maps.

If you want to take existing WLS6.1 web services and convert them to WLS7.0 you can
do so quite easily. The WLS7.0 Ant still supports wsgen so you do not need to even
change your build.xml file. The generated web service however will be implemented
is a manner compliant with the WLS7.0 environment. More details are at:

You use message monitoring in the following cases:
● To track the status of messages
● To find errors that have occurred and establish what caused them

You use end-to-end monitoring in the following cases:
● If you want to monitor message processing steps in a number of SAP components (to be configured).
● If you want to monitor the path of individual messages through these SAP components, from start to end.

End-to-end monitoring includes message monitoring, adapter monitoring, BPE if BPM is involved.. so end-to-end monitoring tells you complete description of your scenario......but message monitoring is concerned only with source message coming to target message successfully generated.

The difference between chapter markers and dvd studio pro markers

Does anyone know what is the difference between chapter markers and dvd studio pro markers? I can not find anywhere on Google. Also in the tutorials I have seen, suggesting DVD Studio Pro markers, but it did not mention the chapter markers.
Thanks,

"Adding Chapter and Compression Markers to Your Sequence
Once you have your edited sequence or program finished, you can add markers to the sequence for use on DVD. Markers are reference points you can place within clips or sequences that identify specific frames. There are two kinds of markers you can add that directly relate to authoring a DVD—chapter markers and compression markers.
• Chapter markers allow DVD authoring applications to create a navigable chapter list for your exported QuickTime movie. Chapter markers force MPEG keyframes (known as I-frames) at their location, since the DVD specification requires an I-frame at each chapter point.
• Compression markers identify areas of abrupt change and include two types: those that are automatically inserted by Final Cut Pro at all edit points, and those you manually place in the clip or sequence. Like chapter markers, compression markers force I-frames at their location, although in this case it is for better quality encoding, and they are not used to create a chapter list.
Note: When you export a QuickTime movie, you have an option to export various kinds of markers, including compression, chapter, or DVD Studio Pro markers. *When you choose to export DVD Studio Pro markers, Final Cut Pro actually exports chapter markers and all compression markers.* This includes compression markers you set manually, as well as ones created automatically by Final Cut Pro at edit and transition points."

The difference between an iphone and an ipod touch?

i want to know if the difference between an iphone and an ipod touch is just that the iphone is like a phone that has internet and is a phone. or what else is it?

The iPhone includes the same as an iPod Touch but also includes a phone, a camera, and a GPS radio.
In addition to having internet access via wi-fi, the iPhone also has internet access via the cellular network, so as long as you have cellular reception with the iPhone, you have access to the internet in addition to having access via an available wi-fi network.

The difference between system restore and last good known configuration

hi,
what is the difference between system restore and last good known configuration.
in which situation you use system restore ,and in which situation you use last good known configuration.
very short answer wil be enough.
thanks
johan
h.david

Last Known Good Configuration deals only with Starting Windows eg. a bad registry or incorrect driver is preventing Windows to start.It recovers the registry settings of HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet
While System Restore uses restore points to return your system files and settings to an earlier point in time without affecting personal files. Restore points are created automatically every week, and just before significant system events, such as the installation
of a program or device driver. You can also create a restore point manually.You can undone system restore but there is no such option in Last Known Good Configuration.
Last Known Good Configuration is disabled in Windows 8 or,Windows 8.1 by default.
Try using Last Known Good Configuration if you can't start Windows, but it started correctly the last time you turned on the computer.
Try using System Restore to return the system to an earlier point in time when things worked correctly.

What is the difference between Topic Keywords and Index File Keywords?

What is the difference between Topic Keywords and Index File Keywords? Any advantages to using one over the other? Do they appear differently in the generated index?
RH9.0.2.271
I'm using Webhelp

Hi there
When you create a RoboHelp project you end up with many different ancillary files that are used to store different bits of information. Many of these files bear the name you assigned to the project at the time you created it. The index file has the project name and it ends with a .HHK file extension. (HHK meaning HTML Help Keywords)
Generally, unless you change RoboHelp's settings, you add keywords to this file and associate topics to the keywords via the Index pod. At the time you compile a CHM or generate other types of output, the file is consulted and the index is built.
As I said earlier, the default is to add keywords to the Index file until you configure RoboHelp to add the keywords to the topics themselves. Once you change this, any keyword added will become a META tag in the topic code. If your keyword is BOFFO, the META tag would look like this:
<meta name="MS-HKWD" content="BOFFO" />
When the help is compiled or generated, the Index (.HHK) file is consulted as normal, but any topics containing keywords added in this manner are also added to the Index you end up with. From the appearance perspective, the end user woudn't know the difference or be able to tell. Heck, if all you ever did was interact with the Index pod, you, as an author wouldn't know either. Well, other than the fact that the icons appear differently.
Operationally, keywords added to the topics themselves may hold an advantage in that if you were to import these topics into other projects, the Index keywords would already be present.
Hopefully this helps... Rick

What is the difference between jsp :include and server side include

what is the difference between jsp :include and server side include(request dispatcher include method)????
i understand that both request dispatcher include method and jsp:include take dynamic data,so when would one use request dispatcher include and when jsp:include.
Is the usage interchangeable?i believe jsp include is used only for jsp/html but include directive can be used to include servlets ,jsp and html....correct me if i m wrong and
do suggest if u hav ny other diff in this context...

The difference really is: in what format do you want your inclusions? If your environment has many Java developers and only a few designers that focus mainly on, say, Flash, that might push you more towards the server-side include() directive. Or, if you have a large set of pages that receive dynamic content that is displayed in a consistent fashion (such as a workflow header area on a page).
If, on the other hand, you have more web designers, there may be a greater desire to deal in markup rather than Java code. Java developers themselves might prefer to view markup (JSP) that more resembles the eventual output than something occuring in Java code.
Finally, there are considerations of tiering. While it is totally possible to (and I have previously) implement 'view classes' that render markup or generate layout templates, JSP's offer, IMO, a subtle, psychological advantage. By forcing a developer to work in a different format, markup versus Java source, the separation on view from controller and model becomes a bit easier. It is still possible to make mistakes, but if a developer at some point notices, "Wait, I'm in a JSP, should I be importing a java.sql class?", then the choice to use JSP includes has paid off in spades.

Whats the difference between arrayCollection = null and arrayCollection.removeAll()?

Whats the difference between arrayCollection = null and
arrayCollection.removeAll()?

In arrayCollection = null; statement you're setting this
reference to null and potentially making it available for garbage
collection. I say 'this reference' and potentially because, as you
may know, there might be other references to this array collection
object that won't be affected by this statement and hence it won't
be GC'ed.
arrayCollection.removeAll() says that I want to empty this
array collection for all the reference that we pointing to it. That
is, remove all the objects from the collection -- and of course
make them 'potentially' available for the GC -- the size of the
array collection would be reduced down to zero and all the
references would be pointing to a valid but empty collection.
Hope this helps.

    In which table can we see the item number for rebate agreement

Hi,
If you have to deal with more complex situations, you can define a delivery cycle in the material master record in addition to the planning cycle. In so doing, you determine the days on whichthe vendor delivers his goods. The delivery cycle is entered in the material master record as a planning calendar in the Planning calendar field.
You enter a delivery cycle if the delivery date (or the goods receipt date) depends on the day on which you order the goods. For example, you carry out the planning run and place your orders on Mondays and Tuesdays. If you place the order on Monday, the delivery is made on Wednesday, if you wait until Tuesday to place the order, the delivery is not made until Friday
Where as Planning calander is Three character number (numeric or using letters) that specifically identifies a PPS-planning calendar. The difference between Planning calender and delivery cycle is If you have selected the MRP type "MRP" and have set a period lot-sizing procedure according to planning calendar, you enter here which planning calendar is to be used.
If you selected the "time-phased planning" MRP type, the planning calendar that you specify here defines the delivery cycle. This specifies the days on which the vendor delivers the material. You can enter the planning cycle in addition to the delivery cycle
