What exactly is the difference between :"Refresh" and "Expand All"?
They seem to do the same thing most of the time. What is the difference?
Hi Dermot,
Well, for a report that uses no expansions the time it takes for Refresh and Expand All should be about the same. Maybe a little bit faster for Refresh. But if your report does have expansions, Refresh should be significantly faster.
Here is the list of what happens to each EVDRE in your workbook when you click the "Expand All" button: [http://help.sap.com/saphelp_bpc75_nw/helpdata/en/fb/b03d0099e8428d95eb7de2c964cf18/frameset.htm] It has 8 steps. I believe that when you click the "Refresh" button it only executes steps 3 and 4 (not completely sure about that, but you get the point - it doesn't do everything).
Expand All can get especially problematic when you have a workbook with a large number of EVDREs. In this case, a nice option is to right-click on the worksheet and take a look at the options under the top menu item. One of the options is to expand only the active sheet, which can save you a lot of time.
Cheers,
Ethan

What exactly is the difference between enqueue,latch & lock
Can someone explain in simple words (with example if possible) what exactly is the difference between enqueue,latch & lock?
I have gone through documentation & other links,but just not able to figure out the exact & clear difference between these three..
Cheers,
KunwarIn addition to links provided by Sb and nice explanations by Aman, i would like to add below :
1.Latches and enqueues are lightweight serialization devices used to coordinate multi-user access to
shared data structures, objects and files.
Latches are locks that are held for extremely short periods of time, for example the time it takes to modify
an in-memory data structure. They are used to protect certain memory structures, such as the database
block buffer cache or the library cache in the shared pool (as described in Chapter 2, Architecture). Latches
are typically requested internally in a ‘willing to wait’ mode. This means that if the latch is not available,
the requesting session will sleep for a short period of time and retry the operation later. Other latches may
be requested in an ‘immediate’ mode, meaning that the process will go do something else rather than sit
and wait for the latch to become available. Since many requestors may be waiting for a latch at the same
time, you may see some processes waiting longer than others. Latches are assigned rather randomly, based
on the ‘luck of the draw’, if you will. Whichever session asks for a latch right after it was released will get it.
There is no line of latch waiters, just a ‘mob’ of waiters constantly retrying.
Oracle uses atomic instructions like ‘test and set’ for operating on latches. Since the instructions to set
and free latches are atomic, the operating system itself guarantees that only one process gets it. Since it
is only one instruction, it can be quite fast. Latches are held for short periods of time and provide a
mechanism for clean-up in case a latch holder ‘dies’ abnormally while holding it. This cleaning up
process would be performed by PMON.
Enqueues are another, more sophisticated, serialization device, used when updating rows in a database
table, fro example. They differ from latches in that they allow the requestor to ‘queue up’ and wait for
the resource. With a latch request, the requestor is told right away whether they got the latch or not.
With an enqueue, the requestor will be blocked until they actually attain it. As such, they are not as fast
as a latch can be, but they do provided functionality over and above that which a latch can offer.
Enqueues may be obtained at various levels, so you can have many ‘share’ locks and locks with various
degrees of ‘shareability’.

What's the difference between shuffle and shuffle all?
What's the difference between shuffle and shuffle all?
Thanks but I have no playlists. Perhaps you know then how the buttons work:
ie. when "shuffle" is showing, does that mean it set to "shuffle all" and vice versa?
the logic on these Iphones is whacky...
Thanks! -
Ever since i've bought my macbook pro i used iPhoto to organize my photos. Now apple added this new photos app and i don't really understand what is it meant for? can someone please explain me the difference? I'm very confused about the purposes of both apps....
Now apple added this new photos app and i don't really understand what is it meant for? can someone please explain me the difference? I'm very confused about the purposes of both apps....
Photos is a completely new designed photo application, designed for Yosemite and the MacOS X versions to come. Many differences are under the hood. It uses the new system libraries and frameworks for more efficient image processing on the new powerful macs, like the mac pro, it is extensible by app extensions, if other developers will add functionality, and most important, it brings integration with iCloud Photo Library. With Photos you can store your photo library in iCloud and sync it across all devices.
Some features are still missing however, and you can continue to use iPhoto, if you like. Or create a small Photos library for testing and explore Photos, while keeping your main libraries in iPhoto. -
What exactly is the difference between these two lenses?
CanonEF-S 55-250mm f/4-5.6 IS STM Lens
CanonEF-S 55-250mm f/4-5.6 IS II Lens
I'm stuck between a rock, and not sure what my best option would be...any help is greatly appreciated!!!The difference is in the type of motor used to focus the lens. The focus motor in STM lenses are more or less silent to the camera's audio system. This is important when shooting video but not for still photography. This may help.

What is the difference between retore and erase all content and settings
i was wondering what is the difference an ordinary retore in itunes and a erase all content and setting on my ipod touch. do they both do the same thing because i might sell my ipod and also does this process require you to connect to itunes after or can you just give it to the new user.
Erase all settings restores the device to its original factory state. All your stuff is gone and there is no iOS installed.
iTunes Restore simply replaces the device content with that from your last backup. It does not change the version of nor install a version of iOS. Whateve version of iOS is on the device remains.
Restore is used if you are having a problem with something on your device. Erase all Settings is used to remove everything in the event you were selling the device and wanted to clear it of all your files and data.

What exactly it the difference between iTunes Wifi-Sync and iCloud Backup?
Okay, i do not yet have a mac, only an iPod touch, but am (hopefully) buying a mac soon (MacBook Pro to be specific). I buy all my music etc on my iPod, and am currently use iCloud sync which i have all the buttons in the ON position. Anyway, i am rather confused after reading alot about the two methods of syncing there exact differences. When i get my mac can i use both- for reasurance or do i have to choose one? Also, does iTunes wifi sync my photos and videos (thats photos ive taken and videos ive made/filmed) and does iCloud do this. Also if i use both photostream and iCloud/iTunes for my photos, will that create double ups of all my photos?
Thanks
The_Ele4antWi-Fi sync works in the same way as syncing over a USB cable, albeit more slowly, and can be used when your iTunes library can see your device on your local network.
iOS: Syncing with iTunes
iCloud backup saves the settings and documents from your apps to the cloud instead of your own computer. It seems you either backup to your computer or to iCloud, but not both, at least not on a regular basis. You may still be able to trigger a local backup manually when using iCloud for backup.
iCloud: Backup and restore overview
Photostream operates independently of either of the previous features to move your pictures to your computer and other iOS devices when in range of any working Wi-Fi connection.

The specs look virtually identical and the form factor is also much the same.
The price is not.Extreme: three LAN ports, Express: one (four total Ethernet ports vs. two, respectively)
Extreme: Gigabit Ethernet, Express: 10/100 base-T
Only the Express can stream iTunes (AirPlay) music
The first two limitations make it resemble the original AirPort Extreme. Dual band is a big plus though, and will go a long way toward alleviating a lot of people's problems with wireless interference.
The form factor is different as the new Express is not designed to be mounted directly to a power receptacle. Also, the new one allegedly supports 50 clients whereas the 802.11n Express was only 10. However, those never seemed to be limitations in actual use.

What's the difference between groupings and compilations?
I have an 80 GB iPod, which I use primarily for classical music. And I like to shuffle among symphonies and other multi-part selections.
I have set the iPod to shuffle by albums, but much of the time it moves to a new piece before playing all the movements, say, of a symphony.
I've set the Grouping entry to be the same as the Album entry, but that doesn't seem to help. Should I also mark all the movements of a particular work as part of a compilation?
And what exactly is the difference between a Grouping and a Compilation? Maybe if I understood that, I could work things out?
Hope someone can enlighten me!

Could anybody explain what is the difference between cloning and refresh
Hi,
Could anybody explain what is the difference between cloning and refresh
What exactly we do in only E-business suite clone(Database and applications) and only database clone and refresh
Regards,
raviWelcome to the forum,
Database Cloning includes cloning the ORACLE_HOME of the database and the copying of data from source to target instance.
Database Refresh includes copying of data from source to target instance. ORACLE_HOME is not copied during a Database refresh.
Similarly Apps cloning includes cloning the techstack, i.e the 806, iAS homes along with APPL_TOP, COMMON_TOP and the Database
Apps refersh is again copying the database from source to target. The techstack or the APPL_TOP or COMMON_TOP are not copied during an Apps refresh

What is the difference between #variable_name and :variable_name?
Hi!
What is the difference between #variable_name and :variable_name?
I have found that if we use alphanumeric variable then :variable_name return value in quotes but #variable_name without quotes.
Why it does not work in the same way for variable default values when variable is used in filter? (It works in mapping)
I use variable in filter like T.OUT_DATE>convert(datetime,:LAST_UPDATE_DATE,121)
When I use my variable in package and do refresh it works fine. But when I try to execute the same interface with variable default value I get error. Seems that variable name has been not changed to the value. It does not work with default value in quotes neither without quotes.
Any ideas how to solve that?
Thank you in advance!
Edited by: user13278245 on Sep 15, 2010 4:34 AMQuestion is how to make it work with default value, when I execute interface standalone, not in package? And why it works in mapping but not in filter?
+ I have found that it works if source is Oracle. It doesn't work only for MS SQL source.

What exactly is the diff between main window and variable window
what exactly is the diff between main window and variable window in SAP script?
hi,
MAIN WINDOW :- In a main window you display text and data, which can cover several pages (flow text). As soon as a main window is completely filled with text and data, the system continues displaying the text in the main window of the next page. It automatically triggers the page break.
You can define only have one window in a form as main window.
The main window must have the same width on each page, but can differ in height.
A page without main window must not call itself as next page, since this would trigger an endless loop. In such a case, the system automatically terminates after three pages.
VARIABLE WINDOW :- The contents of variable windows is processed again for each page, on which the window appears. The system outputs only as much text as fits into the window. Text exceeding the window size is truncated; the system does not trigger a page break. Unlike constant windows, the page windows declared as variable windows may have different sizes on different form pages.
As far as the processing of the window contents is concerned, the system currently treats constant and variable windows alike. The only difference is that constant windows have the same size throughout the form.
hope this will be useful.
If useful then reward points.
with regards,
Syed -
What is the Difference between Consolidation and Aggregation
Hi Masters
What is the difference between Consolidation and Aggregation? i think both are same, what is the exact difference in-terms of HFM and Essbase?
regards
TaruniThe differences lies in the mechanism used to calculate and store the value. Dynamic members such as parent accounts or customs, derived views, parent periods, or <Total> members in the value dimension are performed on the fly in the HFM app server's memory without any discrete action on the user or adminisrator's part. These are aggregations in this context, and are distinct from amounts that are calculated and then stored in the HFM database which are either the result of direct data entry (from data loads or journals) or calculated amounts resulting from HFM's rules. "Consolidation" in your question would be one of the stored, calculated amounts in HFM.
