What is Plug-in, SUpport Package, Add in and how R3 and BW are interdep

Hello Every One,
Can some one explain me in simple words about the terms, Plug-ins, SUpport Packs, Service Packs, Add-in's, SAP Notes and how R3 and BW are interdependant in the above mentioned terms? Can anyone give a simple example?
regards,
kishore

Hi,
Plug-ins:[/b]
Additional program which enhances the functionality of an existing program. Additional functions which may not be needed or are mutually exclusive are often implemented as plug-ins.
For example ICMAN contains various plug-ins for the various network protocols which it supports (HTTP, SMTP, FTP,...).
The interface between mySAP.com components (for example, SAP APO, SAP BBP, SAP BW, SAP CRM) and one or more SAP R/3 systems.
The SAP R/3 Plug-In unites the plug-ins APO-CIF, CRM-R3A, BW-BCT and B2B-PRO-PI. This simplifies maintenance significantly and guarantees compatibility between the individual mySAP.com components. With SAP R/3 Plug-In, you can use several mySAP.com components simultaneously in a single system. SAP R/3 Plug-In supplies the mySAP.com component transaction data and master data in real time.
Technically, there are two versions of each release of the SAP R/3 Plug-In, a PI version and a PI-A version.
The technical names of the software components are PI and PI_A
SUpport Packs
A set of corrections for serious software errors in the SAP system.
Support Packages are compiled periodically and made available in the SAP Service Marketplace.
Service Packs
A grouping of different services for a quotation.
A service package can be agreed between a service provider and a customer within a service contract or as part of a complex service plan, which can also be additionally agreed in a service contract.
EXAMPLE
A "Winter Car Check" service package containing the following services is agreed in a contract:
Cooling water check
Brake fluid check
Battery inspection
Light inspection
Add-in's
add-ins are enhancements to the standard version of the system. They can be inserted into the SAP System to accommodate user requirements too specific to be included in the standard delivery. Since specific industries often require special functions, SAP allows you to predefine these points in your software
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_erp2004/helpdata/en/e6/d54d3c596f0b26e10000000a11402f/content.htm
SAP Notes
Documentaion Prepared by SAP for publishing clarity in case of corrections or changes happening to the SAP Software.
R3 and BW are interdependant
Then BW takes the Data from R/3 : so there has to be Support Pluggins which are mapped to the BW server.So the SAP Supported R/3 Versions should be used.
Eg: SAP Stoped the Support for r/3 4.0 series

What is the diffrence between package javax.sql and java.sql

Is javax designed for J2EE?
And when to use package javax?

Hi,
What is the diffrence between package javax.sql and java.sql?The JDBC 2.0 & above API is comprised of two packages:
1.The java.sql package and
2.The javax.sql package.
java.sql provides features mostly related to client
side database functionalities where as the javax.sql
package, which adds server-side capabilities.
You automatically get both packages when you download the JavaTM 2 Platform, Standard Edition, Version 1.4 (J2SETM) or the JavaTM 2, Platform Enterprise Edition, Version 1.3 (J2EETM).
For further information on this please visit our website at http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.3/docs/guide/jdbc/index.html
Hope this helps.
Good Luck.

Hi,
Table pools are special table types in the ABAP Dictionary. The data from several different tables can be stored together in a table pool or table cluster. Tables assigned to a table pool or table cluster are referred to as pooled tables or cluster tables.
This table are similar to the CLUSTER table types but these work on "LINEAR SEARCH" while CLUSTER TABLE uses "BINARY SEARCH to retrieve the data from the various tables and thsi is mainly used in the logical databases "LDB's" used in HR or ABAP-HR.
A table in the database in which all records from the pooled tables assigned to the table pool are stored corresponds to a table pool.
The definition of a pool consists essentially of two key fields (Tabname and Varkey) and a long argument field (Vardata).
Table Clusters Several logical data records from different cluster tables can be stored together in one physical
record in a table cluster.
A cluster key consists of a series of freely definable key fields and a field (Pageno) for distinguishing continuation records. A cluster also contains a long field (Vardata) that contains the contents of the data fields of the cluster tables for this key. If the data does not fit into the long field, continuation records are created. Control information on the structure of the data string is still written at the beginning of the Vardata field.

Question on Appying NW Support Package Stack
Please note that both individual Support Packages and SP Stacks are Non-cumulative. This means that, when you import Support Packages, then you import a gap less series of Support Packages and, if
you use SP Stacks, you also import these without a gap. The only exception is the Support Package for SPAM itself. & Java support packages which comes in SCA format.
Uday, Did you try to copy from what I posted?.. the correct procedure would be to direct to the original link.. not CTRLC & CTRLV!

Right now I'm using version 3.6 somthing, but I would love to update, but I'm nervous cause last time I did my Add ons and Ext that I use didn't work. How would I know if my add ons and exts are compatible with a new version?

I'm using version 3.6.24 (whatever the latest update was that just took place 2 days ago for the 3.6 Version) What I would like to know is if I update to a newer version like 7 or 8, whichever is not a Beta, how will I know if my add ons and extensions will work? Last time I had updated to a newer version, non of my favorite add ons or extentions would work, so I went back to 3.6. Can you please help cause something needs to be done cause my Firefox crashes a lot when Adobe is being used.
I also don't know if any of my add ons are crashing my computer. Either Adobe crashes or my whole computer crashes. Can someone please help me?

you can find which addon are compatible with Firefox 8 by here
* https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/compatibility/10.0

Firefox 5.0 - two users different add-ons and plugins - are they not supposed to be in sinc or are the differencesok per each user? please advise

not necessarily a problem, just inquiring. husband sends me web pages in a format that I cannot read and he tells me that he saved it as one of the "save page as" options - which I do not have multiple options just the one. there are some options I do not need yet are listed as add-ons. how do I get the add-ons and plug-ins more in sinc and delete those that we do not need. some only allow disabling not removing.

As an addition to this issue, I have noticed that Firefox Mobile has done the same thing to these sites. It causes all the same issues to happen in the same spots. Some feedback on this problem would be greatly appreciated.

Can't you fix the mem leaks? Safari has add-ons and there are no mem leaks. Are you guys incapable and do you need better programmers? Why not fix the problem?

nothing new here. you have memory leaks and can't seem to fix them. Why?
Safari has add-ons and no memory leaks there. other browsers don't leak mem. why FF?

tried resetting. that was stupid. took me 30 minutes to get my home page and addon back the way it was.
please don't try to tell me any more things that DON'T WORK.

Support packages SAPKB70021-25 and SAPKA70021-25

Hi Experts,

As per the note 822379, the snote 141187 corrections get delivered via basis patch 22/23.
So you please try to implement 24 and 25 one by one if possible.

What new MacbookPros will support dual booting Lion and Snow Leopard?

I was looking at http://www.macmall.com/n/macNavLinks-305?q=8899071
I need a system that can dual boot so that we can use older software that isn't supported by Lion.

HT1386 my device is plugged in to power, my computer and iPhone are both on the same Wi-Fi network, but my phone doesnt show up

I have a 16 gig iPhone 4s with AT&T and a PC on windows 7 ultimate. i just updated it to iOS 5.1.1 and now it doesnt appear in itunes. it appears when the device is plugged into the computer but not at any other point does it. i restarted my PC, my iPhone and my router and nothing changed a thing. i re enabled Wifi sync and i re installed iTunes. Nothing has worked !! Please help !

Actually I think we need to wait on an update from iTunes to update its compatability with the new iPhone software. They usually release a new version of iTunes with the iOS. So I hope to see an update from apple by the end of the week or maybe even today.
Needless to say. I am experiencing the same issue as well. I've tried all the proposed fixes listed above. It's gotta be a software compatability issue.

I am using CS5 and when I try to upgrade the packages: Bridge, Fireworks, and Photoshop are downloaded but the upgrades always fail -- why?

I can upgrade other components of CS5 but not these three. What can I do to get these updates to be processed on my Windows 8.1 64-bit platform?

you probably moved something.
try updating directly, http://www.adobe.com/downloads/updates/

Ssytem: SAP ECC 6.0
I first updated the Kernel from level 58 to 83. eveything went fine from what I can see.
Then I have been importing a queue to implement some Support Packages. the import has now stopped with the following errors:

Thank you for any explanations or suggestions

Hi Ammey and others ,
The queue import failed with the same error.
I have found in note 822379 that this message can actually be ignored.
SAPK-60006INISOIL - SAPK-60007INISOIL
           Symptom: If the Support Packages SAPK-60006INISOIL und SAPK-60007INISOIL are imported together in a queue, the TEST_IMPORT step returns an error for Support Package SAPK-60007INISOIL. The following error messages are displayed in the test import log:
Function OIUREP_GET_RECENT_ROYHIST (OIUREP_ROY_HISTORY 05)
   does not fit into the existing function group.
   (OIUREP_ROY_REPORTING 09)
Function OIUREP_GET_RECENT_VOLHIST (OIUREP_ROY_HISTORY 06)
   does not fit into the existing function group.
   (OIUREP_ROY_REPORTING 10)
           Solution: You can ignore this error by choosing 'Extras'-> 'Ignore test-import error'. The error will not occur during the later import.
based on your latest message (2.39 PM) suggesting to ignore "Warnings" I should be able to mark the queue now as "Ignore test-import errors" and bypass my original error. That was the only error of type 8 or above.
Thank you
Corinne
