wat is the purpose of authorization?

If you mean for authorising your iTunes account on your computer, then any content that you purchase or download from iTunes is tied to your account - you need to authorise your account on your computer in order to play (music, films, tv shows) your purchased content on it, and to sync your content from it to your devices. It is an attempt to try and cut-down on illegal content sharing.

  • What is the purpose of TABLE MAINTENANCE GENERATOR IN ABAP DDIC

    CAN ANY EXPLAIN ME
    1.what is the purpose of TABLE MAINTENANCE GENERATOR IN ABAP DDIC?
    2. AND THE CONTENTS IN ITS TABS.
    KINDLY LET ME KNOW.IT IS URGENT

    Go to SE11, give the table name and click on change. Then Go to utilities--> Table maintenance generator.
    In the table maintenance generator screen, we should give Authorization Group, Function Group name (Function Group name can be same as table name), Maintenance type can be one step or two step, usually we will create with one step. we should give maintenance screen number. After clicking on create button, a table maintenance generator will be created.
    To check it go to SM30 . In SM30, we find display, Maintain options.
    We can view the table contents by choosing Display and we can create table entries by choosing Maintain.
    Why we have to go for Table maintenance generator, when we can edit the table by SE16 or SE11, utilities->create entries?
    In the production system, end-users will not be having access to transaction codes like SE11 and SE16. Developers will not be having access to many transaction codes including the above two.
    To view the contents of the database table, we will use SE16n in Production system. Please find out the difference between SE16 and SE16n.All these authorizations will be maintained by BASIS team, by creating access profiles.
    So in order to edit or create the contents of a database table, we should go for table maintenance generator. In real time, authorizations will be maintained in production system. (even in development and Test systems to some extent).
    There is an audit like Sarbanes-Oxley Act for American clients, where every thing will be audited by government agency. To know more about SOX, use the links on the right hand side of this page.
    The second reason is, we can edit or create multiple entries at a time, using table maintenance generator.
    Apart from that we have options like 'Enter conditions' in table maintenance screen SM30. Please try to find out the use of those, by creating an example.Table Maintenance generator: Difference between one step and two steps.
    While creating table maintenance generator, we find below options:
    1. When we choose one step, we have to give the screen number in Overview Screen field.
    2. When we choose two step, we have to give both overview screen number and single screen number.
    You can give any number for screen. Don’t give 1000 screen number. As this number is reserved for selection screen.
    When we choose two step, two screens will be created for table maintenance. For single step only one screen will be created.
    When we choose two step, table maintenance will work as follows:
    Go to SM30, give the table name for which you have created table maintenance-
    Overview screen will be displayed. To create entries, when you click on ‘new entries’.
    Another screen will be displayed, where you give input and save.
    You can enter one record at a time.
    We use single step generally, as it is user friendly.
    To completely understand the difference and above points please do exercise by creating table maintenance generator in both ways (using single step and two step).

  • Wat is the difference between Check and Uncheck in SU24?

    I am confused since documentation says :
    UnCheck(U) :The check for corresponding authorization object is always executed. Field values are not displayed in the Profile Generator.
    Check(C):Check always executed. Field values are not displayed in the Profile Generator
    Wat is the difference between the two ? Any thoughts       delete

    Unchecked just means the check indicator has not been set.  It should not have an impact on the way the transaction works other than the fact that the object will not be pulled into PG for the given transaction(s) for which it was set to unchecked and thus may not allow a user access.
    Your example:
    "For instance if you uncheck all the auth objects in a particular TCODE ( u cant do that with HR and Basis objects) then if u add it to a role then the person will not be able to execute anything in that TCODE"
    If I was giving a user access to a tcode and I did not want them to perform some of the HR or basis functions I would inactivate the sensitive object(s) within the role.  In most cases I would not change the check indicator in SU24 to unchecked.  This way when you add the transaction to a user who <i>should </i>have access the object is correctly added.
    Personally I would not change the check indicator to C instead of CM to make the role <i>look </i>neater.  I would inactivate the object in the role.

  • While defining a columnar table, what is the purpose of column store type

    Hi folks
    I have two questions related to columnar table definition.
    1. What is the purpose of column store type.
    While defining a columnar table, what is the purpose of column store type (STRING ,CS_FIXEDSTRING,CS_INT etc) , when I define a table using the UI I see that the column is showing STRING but when I goto EXPORT SQL it does not show.  Is this mandatory or optional ?
    2.VARCHAR Vs. CHAR - In the UI when I create the table I do not see the CHAR option , but I do see lot of discussion where people are using CHAR for defining the columnar table. Not sure why UI dropdown does not show it. I also read that we should avoid using VARCHAR as those columns are not compressed, is that true, I thought the column store gives compression for all the columns. Are there certain columns which cannot be compressed .
    Please let me know where I can find more information about these two questions.
    Poonam

    Hi Poonam
    the CS_-data types are the data types that are used internally in the column store. They can be supplied but it is not at all required or recommended to do so.
    SAP HANA will automatically use the correct CS_-data type for every SQL data type in your table definitions.
    To be very clear about this: don't use the CS_-data types directly. Just stick to the SQL data types.
    Concerning VARCHAR vs CHAR: fixed character data types are not supported anymore and don't show up anymore in the documentation.
    I have no idea why you believe that VARCHAR columns are not compressed but this is just a myth.
    create column table charcompr (fchar char(20), vchar varchar(20));
    insert into charcompr (
        select lpad ('x', to_int (rand()*20), 'y'), null from objects cross join objects);
    -- same data into both columns
    update charcompr set vchar = fchar;
    -- perform the delta merge and force a compression optimization
    merge delta of charcompr;
    update charcompr with parameters ('OPTIMIZE_COMPRESSION' ='FORCE');
    -- check the memory requirements
    select COLUMN_NAME, MEMORY_SIZE_IN_TOTAL, UNCOMPRESSED_SIZE, COUNT, DISTINCT_COUNT, COMPRESSION_TYPE
    from m_cs_columns where table_name ='CHARCOMPR'
    COLUMN_NAME    MEMORY_SIZE_IN_TOTAL    UNCOMPRESSED_SIZE   COUNT   DISTINCT_COUNT  COMPRESSION_TYPE
    FCHAR       3661                    70285738            6692569 20              RLE
    VCHAR       3661                    70285738            6692569 20              RLE
    We see: compression and memory requirements are the same for both fixed and variable character sizes.

    Leave it in the rice for at least a day and change the rice every other day or so. The rice and iPod should be in a sealed container.

  • What is the purpose of Destination Function on Submit Button?(Doesn't work)

    Hi Gurus,
    There is a property "Destination Function" on Submit buttons.
    What is the purpose of this field.
    I tried setting some values here expecting following behavior in order:
    1. Process Form Request will get executed.
    2. User will be navigated to the OAF page related to the Destination Function.
    Destination Function property probably point to setInvokeFunction method of the OASubmitButtonBean.
    Please advise on this.
    Thanks and Regards,

  • What is the purpose of open/close connection data socket?

    Hello everyone,
    I am writing and reading values in OPC Server through data socket. What is the purpose of open/close connection data socket when writing /reading a value?  Without the open/close connection element, it still work correctly. I am writing values in the server thru event stucture.I do not need any buffered reading or writing. What will happen if I didnt not use the open/close connection? Maybe it may cause some problems in my program which i didnt realise? 
    And I have attached an example of my program. Thanks

    Hi YehChia,
    I was talking about something like that:
    1. Not good. since with every iteration the DS connection needs to be opened and closed.
    2. Good. Since you open the connection only once then do the reads and close it afterwords.

  • How can I remove the Apple ID authorization only on one computer and authorize another in his place?

    how can I remove the Apple ID authorization only on one computer and authorize another in his place?

    De-authorize the computer in question.
    Then authorize the new computer.
    Or de-authorize all computers and authorize only the ones that actually exist.

    HI.
    Do you mean refresh the client ? if that is the case, i think you are posting in wrong forum since this one is for People Centric User Interface. Try in   Customer "Relationship Management (CRM) - General & Framework".

    I need to set up an expense form so that our consultant can "filter" by customer type, program type, and finally the purpose of the trip. For instance: the customer types are churches, schools, organizations. The program type would be dependent on the customer type selection from the first list. Some examples would be: fund raising, gift planning, surveys, and others. The purpose of the trip would be dependent on the program type selected from the second list. Some examples of trip purposes would be: presentation, design, prospecting. Further, the purpose of trip selection from the third drop-down box would then have to determine the values of other fields by expense type: such as commission, airfare, hotel. etc. I've tried pop-up menu but can't figure out how to "select" from the final popup list and have it populate a field for the purpose of the trip. I've tried to look at the JavaScript examples for dependent drop-down boxes, but can't find any that quite fit what I'm trying to accomplish. I am very new to all of this. No training in writing Javascripts - just trying to wing it. The form has to be very simple for our consultants to use, but also give our office the detail we need to process through the correct account numbers. I would appreciate any detailed step-by-step instructions - kind of a javascript for dummies type of info. HELP!

    An AcroForm is the name given to the type of PDF form that you create in Acrobat. An XFA form is the type of form that you create in LiveCycle Designer. Although they are both PDF files, they are very different structurally and have significant;y different scripting models. So pay attention to the information on AcroForms and ignore anything about XFA. Be sure to get the sample PDF forms so you can look at how it works and where the scripts are placed.
    What you want to do will require scripting, and if you don't have the experience and are unable to use the information in the tutorials to create what you want, you might consider getting someone who has experience do this for you. I'll often suggest code if I can do so quickly, but what you want requires more than a few minutes.

  • IPod Touch Newbie: What is the purpose of the iTunes app on my iPod Touch?

    What is the purpose of the iTunes app on my iPod Touch?
    All it does is connect to the iTunes store if I'm near a WiFi connection. It appears to be useful only for impulse purchasing of media. So why is it not named "iTunes Store"? It appears to have no other function.
    Also, to listen to my iTunes music on iPod Touch I have to click on the Music button...not the iTunes app. What logic is that?
    Also, iTunes has synced a movie for me, but I have no clue how to view it on the iPod Touch. It doesn't appear in iTunes on the iPod Touch, and there is no "Movie" button anywhere. What am I missing? I can't find it anywhere.

  • I have an ipad and an iphone.  For the purposes of facetime, I would like to associated my email address with just the ipad and my cell number with just the iphone.  I went to settings facetime on the iphone but it won't let me remove the email address.

    Please see above.  I have both an ipad and and iphoen.  For the purposes of facetime, I would like to associate only my email address with the ipad and only the phone number iwht the iphobne.  However, I cannot remove the email address from the iphone.  So, when I get a facetime via email, it rings on both the iphone and ipad.  Settings>>facetime will not let me remove the email.

    I wouldn't want to say exactly, however I would imagine that it has to do with the fact you use the same Apple ID on both devices. Since Facetime was activated on the phone, with the number, and then activated on the iPad with the email and same Apple ID, they are somehow linked. I'm not sure that you can separate it without having a different Apple ID on the two devices. Otherwise you can look at this support document http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3367 and see if that helps you any.

    We have dozens of synchronous projects but only two of them are writing records to these tables. What makes a sync bpel project write to these tables and what is there purpose? I've seen them listed in various purge scripts so I have to assume they support audit trails or something similar.
    Thanks in Advance.

    I have an update. The two projects use the "inMemoryOptimization" property and that's the cause of the writing to the db. Why would this property trigger a write to the db when the purpose of the property is to do all processing in memory?

  • OIM: What is the purpose of "Update" while editing group memberships

    Hi,
    This is when you lookup a user's Resource Profile and go to "Edit" link. The process form shows up along with a drop down to edit the group memberships. When we select one of the choices such as "Groups" another window pops up where we could add more entires into the child form. In this form there is an "Update" column with a radio button besides a "Remove" column. What is the purpose of this "Update" column? We can add or delete child entries but what does update do? Is there a way to remove this selection altogether?
    Thanks in advance

    Update I can see used for a cases where you have multiple columns on a child table entry and want to change one of them. Strictly speaking, you can update a single column child table rather than delete and insert also. Access policies always do insert and delete actions, but you will want to implement an update task as well if you expect anyone to be editing child tables on resources directly.
