What is the diff b\w open form and start form in scripts.

Hi,
     can any one tell me what is the diff andb\w open form and start form in scripts.when we should use open form and when start form.

Hi Friend.
I have understood some usefull information and would like to share with you.
Within one transaction, you can open and close several layout sets using OPEN_FORM and
CLOSE_FORM, however not simultaneously. You can use parameters in the OPEN_FORM to control
whether the output is stored in the same print request. But also the SAP spool decides,
depending on several plausibility checks, whether new output is appended to an existing
print request or whether to create a new print request anyway.
CALL FUNCTION 'OPEN_FORM'
CALL FUNCTION 'CLOSE_FORM'
CALL FUNCTION 'OPEN_FORM'
CALL FUNCTION 'CLOSE_FORM'
You cannot combine ABAP/4 list output and SAPscript output in one print request.
START A LAYOUT SET AGAIN
Usually a print program does not print only one urging letter or one account statement, but
several layout sets for different customers. To have the output for each customer begin with
the start page of the layout set, you must start the current layout set again and again.
To start a layout set again, you must first end the current layout set and then open the
layout set again. Within one print request, first call the function module END_FORM. It
executes the final processing for the current layout set. Then start the layout set again
using START_FORM. Output then begins again on the start page of the desired layout set.
CALL FUNCTION 'OPEN_FORM'
CALL FUNCTION 'START_FORM'
CALL FUNCTION 'END_FORM'
CALL FUNCTION 'START_FORM'
CALL FUNCTION 'END_FORM'
CALL FUNCTION CLOSE_FORM
Hope your obstacle is cleared.
If not do ask me again?

  • What is the diff b/w flat file and legacy system?

    Hi everyone,
           when v say v r working on scenario FILE to FILE? which format of file r v usually working on? and what is the diff b/w flat file and legacy system?
    thanx

    Hi,
    <i>when v say v r working on scenario FILE to FILE? which format of file r v usually working on?</i>
    >>>Many a times it will be a Flat file with CSV format,Tab delimited format, fixedlength fields.
    <i>what is the diff b/w flat file and legacy system?</i>
    >>>We can not differeniate like this..
    Flat file may come from any systems, it may be live system or legacy system.
    Legacy system- is something like old, or past one. If you talk about SAP , then older versions of SAP can be  called as a legacy system.
    So it may be a file system, or any system which is old version but it doesnot mean it is not in use,

  • What is the diff b/w transactional cube and std cube

    What is the diff b/w transactional cube and std cube

    Hi Main differences,
    1) Trasactional infocube are optimized for writing data that is multiple user can simultaneously write data into it without much effect on the performance where as the std infocube are optimized to read the data ie.e through queries.
    2) transactional inofcubes can be loaded through SEM process as well normal laoding process.Std can be loaded only thorugh normal loading process.
    3) the way data is stored is same but the indexing and partionong aspects are different since one is optimized for writing and another one for reading.
    Thanks

  • What is the best way to open emails and attachments without using wifi?

    For I-phone and I-pad, what is the best way to open emails and attachments without using wifi?  I turned off wifi in my settings but my boss thinks there may be another way and a better way to use something else instead of wifi.  Any help would be appreciated!  Thank you!

    Thanks!  That is a very good question you post.  My boss asked me that and I am assuming that he is having issues with using wifi wherever he is at.  My boss is the kind of person that when he asks something you look into it and ask him no questions...he's the only one asking questions!  But thank you for your response I will tell him the information you told me and hopefully that will help!

    Hi,
    No, Below is a bit from the Session Manager Help
    Currently, Session Manager supports the following instrument session types:
    IVI Sessions—Use an IVI session to obtain the C-based instance handle for an IVI logical or virtual instrument name. NI Session Manager does not support IVI-COM drivers at this time. When IVI-COM drivers are available, you can use an IVI session to obtain an ActiveX interface reference to an IVI-COM driver.
    VXIplug&play Sessions—Use a VXIplug&play session to obtain a C-based instance handle for a VXIplug&play logical or virtual instrument name. Configure VXIplug&play names in the <VXIplug&play directory>\<Platform directory>\NISessionMgr.ini file.
    VISA Sessions—Use a VISA instrument session to obtain a C-based viSession handle to a VISA resource or logical name. Configure VISA logical names in the <VXIplug&play directory>\<Platform directory>\NISessionMgr.ini file.
    Custom Sessions—Use a custom session to create a data container object that shares ActiveX objects you create or other data between software components you write. Use the Attach and Get methods to attach data to and retrieve data from a session. A custom session does not initialize, close, or own an instrument handle. The data you share with a custom session does not have to be instrumentation related. You can create a custom session with any name you request.

  • What is the diff in term of fastness and performance between retina and last mbp version in percentage ?

    What is the diff in term of fastness and performance between retina and last mbp version in PERCENTAGE ?
    Ty to not give links i want an answer here and now by someone who knows what hes talking about.

    But old mbp is not available with ssd you have to buy the option right ?
    Anyway, outside reboot speed is there a speed difference between retina and old version in term of general processing  ?
    I have a 2009 MBP that originally came with a SATA drive. Recently, I swapped drives; now, it has 512GB SSD. In other words, you can easily increase the speed of a standard MBP. There is going to be an increase in general processing with the Retina MBPs, but the significance depends on the application. For example, booting Photoshop used to take just over 30 seconds with a SATA drive; with an SSD, it's just under 10 seconds. But controlling for the SATA vs SSD, the differences are smaller and incremental.
    Ok you speak about a diff with the retina in term of better graphics when zooming but will this advantage be relevant also on my external  giant monitors ?
    I can't answer that, so I'll leave that to someone with more expertise in this area.

  • What is the diff b/w web as and Netweaver 7.0.

    hi
    SAP 4.7 is based on Web AS
    ECC 6.0 is based of Netweaver 7.0.
    pleze illusterate this one

    Now SAP evolved into using the Internet technology and is called as service oriented architecture (SOA). There are lots of functionalities available in ECC 5.0 and ECC 6.0 compared to R/3 in integrating with other systems. Probably to understand the specific release dependent changes, you can go thro the help documentation. For example to understand the diff between ECC 6.0 and ECC 5.0
    1.      ECC 6.0 enables Business area posting - Segment reporting made easy.
    2.      Profit center accounting is through new GL.
    3.      Document splitting: Split of entry to post assets and liabilities to respective profit centers. (Balance sheet items)
    4.      Enables commitment of FM, improved CRM feature & Mobile sales feature
    Here are the list of Transactions not their in ECC 6.0
    QAS1 Download Insp. Specs. (Obsolete)
    QAS2 Download Basic Data (Obsolete)
    QAS3 Upload Results (Obsolete)
    QAS4 Upload UD (Obsolete)

  • WHAT IS THE DIFF B/N DRILLDOWN REPORT AND INTERACTIVE REPORT

    HI
    EXPERTS CAN U HELP ME FOR THIS
    THANKU

    Hi....
    There is no difference between drill down and interactive report, they are the same.
    With drilldown reporting, SAP provides you with an interactive information system to let you evaluate the data collected in your application. This information system is capable of analyzing all the data according to any of the characteristics that describe the data. You can also use any key figures you wish to categorize your data. You can display a number of objects for a given key figure, or a number of key figures for a given object. In addition, the system lets you carry out any number of variance analyses (such as plan/actual comparisons, fiscal year comparisons, comparisons of different objects, and so on).
    You can produce both simple, data-directed lists (basic reports) and complex, formatted lists in drilldown reporting (form reports).
    Drilldown report provides you with comfortable functions for navigating through your data. For example, you can jump to the next level of detail or the next report object on the same level, hide individual levels and switch between the detail and drilldown lists. It also provides a number of additional functions which let you process lists interactively (sorting, conditions, ranking lists, and so on). SAP Graphics, SAPmail and the Excel List Viewer are also integrated into drilldown reporting.
    The drilldown functions are divided into three groups which differ in the number of functions available. That way each user can choose the functional level most suited for his requirements.
    In addition to the online functions for displaying reports, drilldown reporting also provides functions which let you print reports. A number of formatting functions are available to let you determine the look of your printed reports (page breaks, headers and footers, underscores, and so on).
    The menus and the functions available directly on the drilldown report make it easy to use the information system.
    What is an Interactive Report?
    An interactive report generally works in the following fashion:
    1. Basic list is displayed.
    2. User double clicks on any valid line
    or
    User selects a line and presses as button on the tool bar.
    3. The corresponding event is triggered
    4. Then in the code, the line on which action was done, is read.
    5. Depending on the values in that selected line, a secondary list is displayed.
    6. Steps from 2-5 are repeated till the end.
    From the above explanation, I believe, its clear that, the 20th list, will essentially depend on the "selected line" of 19th list. According to your question, you want to move to 20th list directly, without "a prior list". May I know the exact requirement so that, an appropriate solution can be suggested?
    Again, your question was, how to move to 20th list directly on pressing of execute button. Its not possible to move to 20th list. You must cross over a basic list, before you can go to a different list level, using the code given by Pavan.
    What are Drilldown reports?
    The lines of basic list of a drilldown report when clicked, will take the user to the corresponding (standard) object's display.
    For eg: Suppose your report's primary component is purchase requisition, (assume you are printing PR details), and the basic list displays details of many PRs.
    Eg: when clicked on a particular line of the PR basic list, it takes you to std t-code me53 (display of purchase requisition). This is the 'Drill-down' functionality.
    For this, in the at-line selection of your program, as per the above ex: you'll set the parameter ID of PR number BAN (that you can get from Data element) in memory (using set parameter id) and then calling the corresponding transaction (usually skipping initial screen of the std t-code).
    Likewise, if it's Material Number (Matnr), you'll be displaying MM03 transaction w.r.t. the line's matnr
    Hope it will help u
    regards

  • What is the diff b/w Abstract class and an interface ?

    Hey
    I am always confused as with this issue : diff b/w Abstract class and an interface ?
    Which is more powerful in what situation.
    Regards
    Vinay

    Hi, Don't worry I am teach you
    Abstract class and Interface
    An abstract class can have instance methods that implement a default behavior. An Interface can only declare constants and instance methods, but cannot implement default behavior and all methods are implicitly abstract. An interface has all public members and no implementation. An abstract class is a class which may have the usual flavors of class members (private, protected, etc.), but has some abstract methods.

    Hi all,
    Could anybody tell me the differences between ITS ESS/MSS and Webdynpro ESS/MSS?
    Presently we have ITS based ESS/MSS in our landscape and customer wants to go for Webdynpro ESS/MSS. and Webdynpro ESS/MSS is already installed in the sandbox system where ITS based ESS/MSS is already there.
    my doubt is can we install both ESS/MSS in the same server? if it is installed we may get any problems?

  • What is the Diff B/w  Occur 0 and Occurs 10

    Hi ,
            I am creating an internal table one with occurs 0 and other with occurs 10
    if i extract the data from the data base and store in  the internal table's then what will be the difference ,how these two internal tables will differ.

    The number <N> indicate how many lines has to have the table in initialization time: i.e. when the program is loaded in memory, the space for the table depends on the initialization numbers of the records.
    AT run time if the table needs more space, this'll automatically be enhanced.
    But If you know your table can have a certain numbers of records, you can indicate it in the defination, what'll improve the performance:
    all the space the table needs is taken at the beginin, so it doesn't need to enhance the space at run time.
    When this initial area is full, the system makes twice as much extra space available up to a limit of 8KB. Further memory areas of 12KB each are then allocated.
    You can usually leave it to the system to work out the initial memory requirement. The first time you fill the table, little memory is used. The space occupied, depending on the line width, is 16 <= <n> <= 100.
    It only makes sense to specify a concrete value of <n> if you can specify a precise number of table entries when you create the table and need to allocate exactly that amount of memory (exception: Appending table lines to ranked lists). This can be particularly important for deep-structured internal tables where the inner table only has a few entries (less than 5, for example).
    To avoid excessive requests for memory, large values of <n> are treated as follows: The largest possible value of <n> is 8KB divided by the length of the line. If you specify a larger value of <n>, the system calculates a new value so that n times the line width is around 12KB."

  • What is the diff. b/w certificate login and normal login?

    Dear All,
    I have recently cleared my SAP certification, so i am now operating with a new account with MY S.NO and Password provided by SAP. prior to that i had a normal account.
    I cant find difference in both the acounts. I was told that in case of certified candidates the SAP logo is displayed. Is It?
    If its tru, y cant i see any logo or diff. by my name?
    rgds,
    Prashant

    Dear Prashant
    No SAP Logo will display with your name after certification but it will display when you will become the employee of SAP, So have to wait for this.
    You can just request for Logo of your Certification but this will not display with your name on SCN
    I think you were using your P account before this one. The main difference between these two is that you can login to [Server Marketplace|http://service.sap.com/] with your S ID but can't with P ID and also you can use Certificate Login (Sign Sign-On) option for your S ID.
    one other thing that i noticed that when you will go to edit your Business Card in the Last Tab (COMMUNITY) you will see option MY RELATION TO SAP here you can show Customer I think this option is available for P account.
    Thanks and Regards,

  • What is the diff between SAP Netweaver B1i and B1i that comes with SBO 2007

    Hi
    There is SAP Netweaver B1i which is used for integration with SAP R3. But when you get SBO 2007 it also comes with B1i. Is there a difference or is it the same tool??
    Thank you for your time.

    Louis,
    B1i on the SAP Business One 2007A Preview release is the same as B1i 2005A as far as what it is and how it works with relation to integrating SAP Business One and R/3.  There are new features that are part of B1i 2007A of course that are not in 2005A such as integration with SAP BW, an updated Control Center as well as some other features such as the installation and upgrade routines.  You should have a look at the documentation in the ..\Documentation folder and specifically in the "Integration" and "PEP" folders on the preview media.  This is also, as mentioned, the PREVIEW version, so there will be updates to it forth coming before general release.
    HTH,
    Eddy
