what is common distrn channel? give some examplles?
hi,
If you do not need the master data (customer / material and condition master data) to
be differentiated according to distribution channels, you have to set up a representative
distribution channel. The master data for the representative distribution channel
applies to all distribution channels for which you have set up this reference in
Customizing.
By doing this, you can minimize the effort of entering and maintaining master data.
In addition, you can update statistics for distribution channels without having to create
master data for the various distribution channels.
Consider you have three Dist Chnls (01, 02 & 03) and 10 customers who can buy thru either of these dist chnls. In order to enter a sales order you will have to extend the customers to all the 3 Dist Chnls, which means for 10 customers you will have 30 records in the tables. In real time scenario the number of customers and dist chnls are huge and they keep increasing. Imagine the amount of data you will have to maintain.
For this purpose SAP came up with the Common Distribution Channel Concept where you would identify the dist chnl for which you can maintain records and in the process reduce the number of records and also use it for the other dist chnls too.
If you create the dist chnl 01 as the common dist chnl and link 02 & 03 to it, you will have to maintain only 10 records and still can use it for all the 3 dist chnls. The same is applicable for the common division.

How to define common division? give some examples
how to definfe common division? give some examples
Hi,
You can define that customer master records, which have been created for each sales organization for a distribution channel (or division), are also valid in other distribution channels (or divisions). As a result, you create and change customer master records that are required in different distribution channels or in different divisions only once. This makes it easier to create and change master records.
Divisions
In Customizing, you can specify other divisions in which customer master data (and article master data and prices) from the reference division are also valid.
You do this in Customizing for Master Data (Sales and Distribution) in the following activities:(SPRO>SD>Master data)
Define Common Distribution Channels
Define Common Divisions

What is process in oracle give some examples
what is process in oracle give some examples
The tem "process" has multiple meaning in Oracle but most likely you probably are referring to the Oracle background process used to perform the work for an Oracle session. These are in fact OS processes spawed by Oracle using fork on UNIX/Linux and would be task thread on Windows. You can find infomraion on these proceses via the v$process view. You join v$process to v$session to see the front and backend processes for a connection to Oracle.
The Concpts manual describes Oracle process Architecture:

The use of Common Distribution Channel & Division
Dear All,
What is common distribution channel & common division ? What is the use of it ?
Regards
RakeshHi
To put it simple whenever you enter a distribution channel or division in sales order the system will search for the valid records in the common distribution channel and division which is assigned
E.G if yourcommonDistribution channels assignment is like this
Distribution channels 11 commonDistribution channels 11
For 12 it is 11
For 13 it is 13
Now in sales order when you put Distribution channel 11 the system will search records against 11
Now in sales order when you put Distribution channel 12 the system will search records also against 11
Now in sales order when you put Distribution channel 13 the system will search records against 13
The same concept is applies for Division
Hope you are very clear
This is very important assignment without this you cant do anything in S.D
You test it and see and you will understand it much better
Cheers

What is IMPORT/EXORT statements ?please give some example code?
What is IMPORT/EXORT statements ?please give some example code?
EXPORT :-To read data objects from an ABAP program into ABAP memory, use the following statement:
Syntax
EXPORT <f1> [FROM <g 1>] <f 2> [FROM <g 2>] ... TO MEMORY ID <key>.
This statement stores the data objects specified in the list as a cluster in memory. If you do not use the option FROM <f i >, the data object <f i > is saved under its own name. If you use the FROM <g i > option, the data objet <g i > is saved under the name <f i >. The name <key> identifies the cluster in memory. It may be up to 32 characters long.
The EXPORT statement always completely overwrites the contents of any existing data cluster with the same name <key>.
IMPORT :-To read data objects from ABAP memory into an ABAP program, use the following statement:
Syntax
IMPORT <f1> [TO <g 1>] <f 2> [TO <g 2>] ... FROM MEMORY ID <key>.
This statement reads the data objects specified in the list from a cluster in memory. If you do not use the TO <g i > option, the data object <f i > in memory is assigned to the data object in the program with the same name. If you do use the option, the data object <f i > is read from memory into the field <g i >. The name <key> identifies the cluster in memory. It may be up to 32 characters long.
You do not have to read all of the objects stored under a particular name <key>. You can restrict the number of objects by specifying their names. If the memory does not contain any objects under the name <key>, SY-SUBRC is set to 4. If, on the other hand, there is a data cluster in memory with the name <key>, SY-SUBRC is always 0, regardless of whether it contained the data object <f i >. If the cluster does not contain the data object <f i >, the target field remains unchanged.
they are used to save and reterive data in ABAP memory.
here is an example to clear about them.
<b>REPORT ZWA_TEST2 .
data: it_bkpf type table of bkpf with header line.
SELECT * FROM bkpf into table it_bkpf.
EXPORT it_bkpf TO MEMORY ID 'MID'.
refresh it_bkpf.
IMPORT it_bkpf FROM MEMORY ID 'MID'.
LOOP AT It_bkpf.
write:/ it_bkpf-belnr.

Hi forum,
Can we map Common distribution channel in R/3 to CRM. I know common division can be mapped by defining Common (Dummy) division. Is there any provision for distribution channel.
Thanks in advance,
Regards,Goto VOR1 and VOR2
In VOR1:
Here you have the option of assigning a Reference Distribution Channel to your combination of Sales Org+Distribution Channel.
What ever distribution channel you give here in the Refrence Fields, you will then be maintaining the Material masters using this reference Distribution channel.
Having assigned a reference D Channel to the combination of Sales Organization and other divisions, while creation of a Sales Order with Sales Org and any other division, the system will use the master data maintained for this Reference D Channel for your Sales Area in sales order.
The use of this is that, Master data can be maintained for only Common Distribution Channel & Division. So it reduces a lot of system load.
The same applies to VOR2, here you assign a common division to the combination of Sales Org+Divisions.
Hope this helps you.
Reward points if helpful.

Common Distri channels and Divisions
Dear SD Gurus:
I want to have clarifications pertaining to the maintainance of Common Distri channels and common Divisions: T Code VOR1 and VOR2
The scenario is following:
I have one Sales Organization: ZABC
Distribution Channels : KR, KV, KN, KD
Divisions: TM, TN, TZ
If I have VOR1 as follows:
ZABC KR KR
ZABC KV KR
ZABC KN KR
ZABC KD KR
AND VOR 2 as follows:
ZABC TM TM
ZABC TN TM
ZABC TZ TM
1..Would it suffice to share the common master data of Customer Master and Material Master.?
2..Material 1400 created with ZABC and KR channel. Would this be available for all other channels such as KV, KN, KD?
3. OR in addition I will have to do settings in OVAO, OVAM and OVAN? If yes what would be those settings?
4. Also under Assign permitted document types to Sales Areas would it be okay to assign all the doc types to ZABC,KR,TM.? If I try to assign for other divisions it gives error saying that define that sales area as General sales area!!!
I am fully confused. <b>Kindly guide me and take me out of this confusion</b>.Hi Adiraj,
1)-
To share the master data that config settings which u have mentioned is enuf.
but to share the sales area data by all doc types u need to configure
as combine sales org/combine DC & combine Div.-OVAZ
Ref Sales area would be : ZABC-KR-TM
2)- Yes, that material is available for all other DC's
3)- In
OVAO:
ZABC-ZABC
OVAM:
ZABC-KR-KR
ZABC-KV-KR
ZBAC-KN-KR
OVAN
ZABC TM TM
ZABC TN TM
ZABC TZ TM
Now assign ur sales area (ZABC-KR-TM) to respective sales doc types.
4) Yes itz ok ,the same doc will be allowed for all other sales areas

Can somebody give some real time questions for alv report
hi guru
can somebody give some real time questions for alv report.
answers also.
regards
subhasis.hi,
The ALV is a set of function modules and classes and their methods which are added to program code. Developers can use the functionality of the ALV in creating new reports, saving time which might otherwise have been spent on report enhancement
The common features of report are column alignment, sorting, filtering, subtotals, totals etc. <b>To implement these, a lot of coding and logic is to be put. To avoid that we can use a concept called ABAP List Viewer (ALV).</b>
Using ALV, we can have three types of reports:
1. Simple Report
2. Block Report
3. Hierarchical Sequential Report

What is the Role that gives me access to JCO settings page?
Hi all,
I am at the customer site doing some WDP dev. I need to setup JCO so as to make use of RFC.
Customer has already assigned all the roles they have and i still cant access to the backend setting page.
What is the role to give me the access? how do i operate?
thanks guys!Hi Erv2,
As you have mentioned that you are at your customer, then I presume you would want to get things fix ASAP. Thus I would suggest that you talk to your custmoer that they allow you to have the below authorisations or role assignment to your userID (you can ask one of their Portal Admin to sit with you while you work on it and at the same time, train him/her ).
As already mentioned by Koti, in the backend, ask for J2EE_Admin role to be assigned to you via SU01 transaction. Then next, ask them to give you the "Super Administration" role in the Portal via User management ...this role contains all the neceesary authorisation that a Portal Admin needs to execute most/all Portal admin activities.
Once you have finish setup, you can ask to remove the "Super Administration" role.
As a customer (myself), I give the necessary Admin role in Portal and/or J2EE authorisation on backend systems to our portal consultant with me next to him, so as a reasurring to the SAP security team and also to achieve needed knowledge transfer. Its a win-win situation.
If your customer does not want to give more authorisations...then the above mention roles/steps are to be follow..which at times, maybe afew steps instead of just 1.
Hope that helps.

CMIR Common Distribution Channel
Hi
I have a few distribution channels e.g.
10
20
30
I have a few divisions e.g.
01
02
03
Now suppose I make 10 as the common distribution channel.
My Sales area are defined as
1000/10/01
1000/20/02
1000/30/03
I create a customer master with the following details:
Customer number : 1234
Sales Area : 1000/10/02
It allows me to create the customer and extend it to sales are 1000/10/02
Now I create an order with customer number 1234
The sales are which gets determined automatically is
1000/20/02
Reason for picking up 20 as the distribution channel is because division 02 is only associated with Distribution channel 20.
Now the main problem comes while creating the CMIR ( Customer Material Info Record )
If I try to create a record for customer 1234 using sales are 1000/10, I get the following error
Combination of sales org 1000 and distribution channel 10 is not defined
What should I do in this case.
The purpose of Common distribution channel failed in this case?hi Mona
Do common distribution channels and common division. in spro

Sales org--Distribution channel
10000010
10001010
and go to VOR2

1000-01--01
Make these settings and do again the process.
If any quries get back to me..

Common distribution channel and division
Hi
Following is the scenario in our Process.
We have Sales Org 1000 % Distribution Channel 10 , 20 & 30
In Define Common distribution Channel screen have maintained following Config
Sorg Dchannel DchConds DchCust/Mat
1000 10 10 10
1000 20 10 10
1000 30 10 10
so we have maintained Ref Distribution Channel as 10 for 20 & 30
Now we wish to extend the customer to 1000/20 to main some specific data in certain fields related to that distribution channel. but is giving an error no Sales Area 1000/20/Division could be determined.
We would like to use common ref distribution channel and also if required if specific data is required to be maintined in it should be extended to other disctibution channel.
this will ensure that at the time of preparation of sales documents like sales orders it should check if the customer is extended to that distribution channel if yes it will refer data from that disctribution channel else will refer data from common distribution channel.
Is it possible.
Regards
Sanjeev Bagaraihi
please common distribution channel , and common division , will you check ,

Common Distribution Channels and Common Division
Hi experts,
We are encoutering an error and i think its because of common distribution channels and common divisions.
1:IN Development client we can see the common distribution channels and common divisions setup. But no one says he/she has set them up. Is it possible that the enterprise structure settings filter to this?? May be weird doubt but i wanna make sure.
2: If they are setup in Development , there should be a transport request and am unable to see any??
3: If we need the same settings in Test, We will have to set them up in Test client or we can move the transports from DEV to TEST for these settings??
4:And also if these are not setup , do we get an error while creating customers and materials for sales areas?
Please Advice.
Thanks & Regards

Configuration of common distribution channels and common divisions is a required setting, else it will give an error for Customer & Material Master. This setting has to be done in Development Server & transported to Test & Production Server. If you do not find Transport request, then try to do change in configuration & redo the correct configuration & save the Transport Request.
Hope the above is helpful to you.

<b>How to configure Common Distribution Channel and Divisions and what is the advantage of the same?</b>
dear sunil
distribution channel
If you do not need the master data (customer / material and condition master data) to
be differentiated according to distribution channels, you have to set up a representative
distribution channel. The master data for the representative distribution channel
applies to all distribution channels for which you have set up this reference in
Customizing.
By doing this, you can minimize the effort of entering and maintaining master data.
In addition, you can update statistics for distribution channels without having to create
master data for the various distribution channels.
