non-cumulatives KF in reporting
Re: use of non cumulative keyfigure
Re: When do we use Non-Cumulative values?
Key figures:
1. Cumulative Vaules
2. Non Cumulative Values
Cumulative Values:
Cumulative Values are Keyfigures for which Keyfigure Values are must posted in every time unit that reported on (= time period specific Values).
Example:
Revenue
Non Cumulative Values:
Non Cumulative Values are Keyfigures for which KeyFigures are only evaluated for selected time Periods.
Cumulative Keyfigures With Exception Aggregation:
It's a 'normal' KF (with summation, min or max as aggregation behaviour), but you set some exception in this behaviour...for example, you can say that a KF, normally aggregated by 'summation', have to show the max value (or the average, or '0' or something else), that is the 'exception aggregation' when you use it in combination with 0DOC_DATE (or other char), that is the 'exception aggregation char reference'...in this case OLAP processor give to you the possibility to see your KF with different behaviour depending from you use 0DOC_DATE (in our example, MAX) or something else (SUMMATION).
Non Cumulative keyfigure with Associated Single Delta:
If you have a stock KF that is fed from only one (other) movement KF that can assume positive and negative sign.
KF1 (initial) STOCK (non-***.) = 100
KF2 flow = -30
KF2 flow = 70
KF1 (final) STOCK (non-***.) = 140
Non-cumulative key figure with associated in and outflow:
This is the case of 2LIS_03_BF KF stocks fields.
Here, we have the same situation in point 2, but you will have not only ONE flow KF, but TWO, one dedicated to in and another one dedicated to out !
You have to use this scenario if you have no KF that have positive and negative sign, but two KFs each one representing positive (in) and negative (out) logical sign!
KF1 (initial) STOCK (non-***.) = 100
KF2 (out))flow = 30
KF3 (in)flow = 70
KF1 (final) STOCK (non-***.) = 140

What is the difference between DSo and Infocube

Hello,
Kindly tell me what is the difference between DSO and Infocube?
And please tell me how to take the desicion that in whichi case we can use DSO and in which case we can use Infocube..

Hi ,
DataStore object serves as a storage location for consolidated and cleansed transaction data or master data on a document (atomic) level.
This data can be evaluated using a BEx query.
A DataStore object contains key fields (for example, document number/item) and data fields that can also contain character fields (for example, order status, customer) as key figures. The data from a DataStore object can be updated with a delta update into InfoCubes and/or other DataStore objects or master data tables (attributes or texts) in the same system or across different systems.
Unlike multidimensional data storage using InfoCubes, the data in DataStore objects is stored in transparent, flat database tables. The system does not create fact tables or dimension tables.
Use
The cumulative update of key figures is supported for DataStore objects, just as it is with InfoCubes, but with DataStore objects it is also possible to overwrite data fields. This is particularly important with document-related structures. If documents are changed in the source system, these changes include both numeric fields, such as the order quantity, and non-numeric fields, such as the ship-to party, status and delivery date. To reproduce these changes in the DataStore objects in the BI system, you have to overwrite the relevant fields in the DataStore objects and set them to the current value. Furthermore, you can use an overwrite and the existing change log to render a source delta enabled. This means that the delta that is further updated to the InfoCubes, for example, is calculated from two successive after-images.
An InfoCube describes (from an analysis point of view) a self-contained dataset, for example, for a business-orientated area. You analyze this dataset in a BEx query.
An InfoCube is a set of relational tables arranged according to the star schema: A large fact table in the middle surrounded by several dimension tables.
Use
InfoCubes are filled with data from one or more InfoSources or other InfoProviders. They are available as InfoProviders for analysis and reporting purposes.
Structure
The data is stored physically in an InfoCube. It consists of a number of InfoObjects that are filled with data from staging. It has the structure of a star schema.
The real-time characteristic can be assigned to an InfoCube. Real-time InfoCubes are used differently to standard InfoCubes.

What is the difference between exists and in

hi all
if i have these queries
1- select ename from emp where ename in ( select ename from emp where empno=10)
and
2- select ename from emp where exists ( select ename from emp where empno=10)
what is the difference between exists and in is that only when i use in i have to bring the field name or what.... i mean in a complex SQL queries is it will give the same answer
Thanks

You get two entirely different result sets that may be the same. Haah! What do I mean by that.
SQL> select table_name from user_tables;
TABLE_NAME
BAR
FOO
2 rows selected.
SQL> select table_name from user_tables where table_name in (select table_name from user_tables where table_name = 'FOO');
TABLE_NAME
FOO
1 row selected.
SQL> select table_name from user_tables where exists(select table_name from user_tables where table_name = 'FOO');
TABLE_NAME
BAR
FOO
2 rows selected.So, why is this? the WHERE EXISTS means 'if the next is true', much like where 1=1 being always true and 1=2 being always false. In this case, where exists could be TRUE or FALSE, depending on the subquery.
WHERE EXISTS can be useful for something like testing if we have data, without actually having to return columns.
So, if you want to see if an employee exists you might say
SELECT 1 FROM DUAL WHERE EXISTS( select * from emp where empid = 10);
If there is a row in emp for empid=10, then you get back 1 from dual;
This is what I call an 'optimistic' lookup because the WHERE EXISTS ends as soon as there is a hit. It does not care how many - only that at least one exists. It is optimistic because it will continue processing the table lookup until either it hits or reaches the end of the table - for a non-indexed query.

What is the difference between ABAP and HR-ABAP?

Hi people,
Could u just tel me abt what is the difference between ABAP and HR-ABAP?
Thanks in advance,

Hi Sir ,
Please have a look below .Hope it is suitable and simpler solution for your question.
Please do reward if useful.
Thankx.
HR deals with the INFOTYPES which are similar to Tables in General ABAP.
There are different ways of fetching data from these infotypes.
There are different areas in HR LIKE Personal Admn, Orgn Management, Benefits, Time amangement, Event Management, Payroll etc
Infotypes for these areas are different from one another area.
storing of records data in each type of area is different
LDBS like PNP are used in HR programing.
Instead of Select.. we use some ROUTINES and PROVIDE..ENDPROVIDE.. etc
and in the case of Pay roll we use Clusters and we Import and Export them for data fetching.
On the whole Normal ABAP is different from HR abap.

Orgn related Infotypes start with HRP1000 to HRP1999.
All custom developed infotypes stsrat with PA9000 onwards.
In payroll processing we use Clusters like PCL1,2,3 and 4.
Instead of Select query we use PROVIDE and ENDPROVIDE..
You have to assign a Logical Database in the attributes PNP.

And finally,
Few notes are below:
InfoSets in the HR Application
You can use SAP Query in HR to report on HR data. Queries are maintained as described in Creating Queries. The special features of queries created for HR are described in Maintaining Queries in the Human Resources Application. The maintenance procedure for HR InfoSets differs from the described procedure inasmuch as HR data fields are grouped together in infotypes.
InfoSet management in SAP Query is also used for InfoSet Query. For further information, see Functions for Managing InfoSets.
If you want to create InfoSets for HR, you can use logical databases PNP, PNPCE, PAP, and PCH (see HR Logical Databases). The database you must use to create your InfoSet depends on the component in which the data you want to report on is stored.
The reports you can execute using InfoSets based on logical databases PNP (or PNPCE) or PCH are similar, but differ in that they can select different objects. The following table describes the connection between the logical database, and the infotypes you can include in an InfoSet. It also provides you with one or two examples of reports that you can execute using the appropriate InfoSets.
Logical database PNP/PNPCE* PCH PAP
Selection of Persons Objects from Personnel Planning Applicants
Infotypes that can be included in the InfoSet Infotypes for· Personnel Administration (0000-0999) · Time Management (2000-2999) · Payroll infotypes · Infotypes for Personnel Planning objects that can be related to persons If the object type is specified:· Infotypes for the object type · Infotypes for objects that can be related to the specified object typeIf the object type is not specified:· All infotypes · Infotypes for Recruitment (4000-4999)· Some infotypes for Personnel Administration (such as 0001 and 0002)
· Customer infotypes
Reporting examples · Selection of all persons who participated in a specific business event, output of prices for reserved business events · Selection of all persons assigned to a specific personnel area, output of qualifications held by these persons · Selection of all business events held in London in March, output of all persons who participated in these business events · Selection of all positions assigned to a specific organizational unit, output of all persons assigned to the positions · Selection of all applicants hired last year to work on special projects, output of addresses for the applicants selected
Logical database PNPCE (PNP Concurrent Employment) functions just like logical database PNP. The procedure for creating InfoSets is also the same. It only becomes significant if you work with Concurrent Employment.
Creating InfoSets
The maintenance procedure for HR InfoSets differs from the procedure described so far in this section inasmuch as HR data fields are grouped together in infotypes. To set up an InfoSet for the HR application, proceed as follows:
1. On the initial screen for maintaining InfoSets, enter a name for the InfoSet and choose Create.
2. On the next screen, enter a name for the InfoSet and select one of the HR logical databases in accordance with your reporting requirements.
Customer infotypes can be created on all HR logical databases. In each individual case, therefore, you must decide which database to select so that you can report on customer infotypes.
This screen enables you to enter an authorization group. All of the queries that are subsequently created using this InfoSet can only be executed by persons who have this authorization group.
3. Choose .
This takes you to the Infotype Selection for InfoSet screen. You now have the option of creating field groups and assigning fields as required for non-HR InfoSets. Field groups that correspond to infotypes and already contain fields, however, are always created for HR InfoSets. The field groups are displayed in an overview tree in the top right section of the screen.
The infotypes that you included in the InfoSet are displayed in an overview tree on the left of the screen. The infotype fields that are already included in field groups are displayed in a different color, and the corresponding field group ID is displayed.
In the standard system, a field group is created automatically for each infotype that you included in the InfoSet (a field group corresponds to an infotype).
In the standard system, each field group contains the infotype-specific fields. To ensure that working with the InfoSet is as easy as possible, you are advised to restrict your use of fields in each field group to those you really require. This means you should remove fields that are not required.
An infotype's fields must only be assigned to the pertinent field group. Make sure this assignment is correct. If the assignment is incorrect, the InfoSet could be rendered unusable.
When an InfoSet is created, the following fields are transferred automatically to the first field group:
§ Logical database PNPCE or PNP Personnel number
§ Logical database PAP Applicant number
§ Logical database PCH Object ID, plan version, and object type
6. Determine the fields that must be included in the field groups of your InfoSet. If you require further information, see Assigning Fields to a Field Group.
If you want, you can change the default sequence of field groups and fields as required using Drag&Drop.
7. To save the InfoSet, choose .
8. To generate the InfoSet, choose .
On the Change InfoSet (InfoSet name) screen, you can choose Edit ® Change infotype selection to add more infotypes to the InfoSet, or to remove infotypes from the InfoSet. Remember to regenerate the InfoSet afterwards.
This screen also enables you to update InfoSets if, for example, the system contains new additional fields for specific key values. To do so, choose InfoSet ® Additional functions ® Update additional HR fields.
9. Go back to the initial screen for InfoSet maintenance.
10. Choose User group assignment.
11. Select a user group, and save your entry.

Looking for new laptop what are the differences between pro and air? Besides size. Does the air preform like the pro?

Looking for new laptop what are the differences between pro and air? Besides size. Does the air preform like the pro?

The NEW macbook Pro and Air are EXTREMELY close in form factor
The newest macbook Pro is essentially a larger macbook Air with Retina display and options for speed in increasing prices up to an independent graphics and quad core processor.
both Air and new Pro now have PCIe SSD and permanent RAM.
The Air is the lightweight portable form factor, fast to boot and shut down, but with longer battery life than any of the macbook pro in 13"
Now the new macbook Pro and macbook Air are extremely close in form factor and nature.
both have 802ac wifi
both have permanent RAM, no superdrive
both are slim profiles and SSD
The only real differences now are (in the most expensive Pros) faster processors and quadcore processors and top end model autonomous graphics.
....and of course the retina display
both are now "very good for travel"
Other than features the form factor of the Air and Pro are VERY close now,....so now its merely a matter of features and price more than anything.
You need an external HD regardless of what you get for backups etc. Drop into an Apple store and handle both and make your choice based on features, such as Retina or non-retina, .... both at a distance now look like the same computer.
The Pro weighs more, ....but nowhere near what it used to just a month ago on the older macbook Pros
The NEW macbook Pro is a different creature entirely than the older macbook Pro, .....the new Pro is thicker than the Air, but id frankly call the NEWEST Pro a "macbook Air with Retina display" , or
Maybe a “macbook Air PRO with Retina display”
Instead of Air VS Pro now,.....its really a smooth transition from Air to pro without comparing say, 2 different creatures, now its like contrasting a horse from a race horse.
Either one in 8gig of RAM (preferably)... the 4gig upgrade costs very little, the I7 you will notice only 15% faster on heavy applications over the I5, and NOTHING on most APPS.....I5 has longer battery life.
As you see below, the non-Retina 13" AIR is 82% of the Macbook with Retina display in resolution
there is no magical number of pixels per inch that automatically equates to Retina quality.
http://www.cultofmac.com/168509/why-you-might-be-disappointed-by-the-resolution- of-those-new-retina-display-macs-feature/
A huge internal SSD isnt a game changer for anything, you need an external HD anyway
what you WONT READ on Apple.com etc. is that the larger SSD are MUCH FASTER due to SSD density
"The 512GB Samsung SSD found in our 13-inch model offers roughly a 400MB/s increase in write speeds over the 128GB SanDisk/Marvell SSD"

What is the difference between action and workflow? How do I decide that I need an action in a transaction and not a workflow and vice versa?

Dear Experts,
I have few doubts and request your expert inputs to clarify my doubts.
What is the difference between action and workflow? How do I decide that I need an action in a transaction and not a workflow and vice versa?
Your earliest response is highly appreciated.
Thanks,
SMTP

Hi SMTP,
First of all, as I mentioned action is nothing but an executable work item which is designed in the workflow itself. In other words, Workflow is like your OOPS class. At run time, workflow instances are created just like objects of classes. Now, the steps designed in the workflow are called TASKS and the instances of tasks are called WORKITEMS. Now, the work items where any user action is required are called executable work items. ANd the work items where no user action is required (for example, sending an email in background) are called non-executable work items.
Whether to go with development of workflow or not depends upon your business scenario. If your requirement is only to send an email and you find any BAdi or exit where in you can write your logic then there is no need of creating a workflow. If there is a defined business process with defined users and time lines, then you can go with the development of workflows.
Rest, the below link will help you in understanding basic concepts of workflow :

What is the difference between view and materialized views

Hi
What is the difference between view and materialized view ? can we update the base table using views

can we update the base table using viewsYes:
VIEWS
1. an updatable view is one that lets you perform DML on the underlying table
(see Oracle Database Concepts 10g - 5 Schema Objects)
2. non-updatable view requires INSTEAD OF Triggers
(see Oracle Database Concepts 10g - 22 Triggers)
SNAPSHOTS
You can have updateable (and writeable) snapshots - in updateable (writeable) MV replication.
Oracle uses snapshots (Materialized Views - MV) for two different purposes:
1. replication
2. automated Query Rewrite facility (first introduced in Oracle Discoverer, later included in Oracle database 8i).
Replication types in Oracle are:
a) Basic replication (MV replication)
- transaction based
- row-level
- asynchronous from master table to MV (Materialized View)
- DML replication only
- database 7 / 8.0 / 8i / 9i / 10g
- Standard and Enterprise Edition
1. Read-only MV replication
2. Updateable MV replication:
2.1 asynchronous from MV to master
2.2 synchronous from MV to master
3. Writeable MV replication
b) Multimaster replication
- transaction based
- row-level or procedural
- asynchronous or synchronous
- DML and DDL replication
- database 7 / 8.0 / 8i / 9i / 10g
- Enterprise Edition only
1. row-level asynchronous replication
2. row-level synchronous replication
3. procedural asynchronous replication
4. procedural synchronous replication
c) Streams replication
- (redo) log based
- row-level
- asynchronous
- DML and DDL replication
- database 9i / 10g (10g has Down Streams Capture)
- Enterprise Edition only (Standard Edition 10g can execute Apply process)

What is the difference between reset and adobe reset??

what is the difference between reset and adobe reset??

Reset and Reset (Adobe) will have the same effect unless you have changed the defaults.
For raw files LR uses its own defaults as the starting point for developing an image. For example, if you don’t apply your own import preset the standard default settings under detail are:
Sharpening:
Amount 25
Radius 1.0
Detail 25
Masking 0
Some users like to adjust these and make the tweaked settings into their own defaults. After making the desired adjustments in Develop simply hold down Alt and the reset button changes to Set Default.
Clicking the button will save the new default settings. This can be useful if you have more than one camera and wish to use different defaults for each.
To get back to the standard defaults simply hold down shift and click Reset (Adobe)
Restore
You can also restore the default settings globally in the develop module from the top menu:
Develop >> Set Default Settings
Then click the button "Restore Adobe Default Settings"
The standard defaults will then apply again to all future imports. For photos already in the catlaog where a non-standard default has already been applied you would need to adjust them manually using Shift+Reset (Adobe) but after adjusting one, it is then possible to sync all the others.

What is the difference between MOVE and WRITE TO ststement?

Hi
What is the difference between MOVE and WRITE TO ststement?
When do we use both of them?
Thank You

Hi,
<b>MOVE</b>
Syntax
MOVE source {TO|?TO} destination.
destination {=|?=} source.
Effect
Both these statements assign the content of the operand source to the data object destination. The variants with the language element TO or the assignment operator = are valid for all assignments between operands that are not reference variables, and for assignments between reference variables for which the static type of source is more specific than or the same as the static type of destination(narrowing cast).
Variants with the language element ?TO or the assignment operator ?= (casting operator ) must be used if the source and destination are reference variables and the static type of source is more general than the static type of destination (widening cast). For assignments between operands that are not reference variables, use of the question mark ? is not permitted.
The data object destination can be any data object that can be listed at a write position, and the data object source can be a data object, a predefined function or a functional method (as of release 6.10). The data type of the data object destination must either be compatible with the data type of source, or it must be possible to convert the content of source into the data type of destination according to one of the conversion rules.
Notes
If source and/or destination are field symbols, then, as in all ABAP commands, the system works with the content of the data objects to which the field symbols point. The actual pointer content of a field symbol can only be changed using the statement ASSIGN or the addition ASSIGNING when processing internal tables (value semantics). If source and destination are reference variables, the reference contained in source is assigned to destination (reference semantics).
Strings and internal tables are addressed internally using references. When assignments are made between strings and between internal tables (as of release 6.10), only the reference is transferred, for performance reasons. After the assignment, the actual string or the actual table body of the source as well as the target object are addressed (sharing). When the object is accessed to change it, the sharing is canceled and a copy of the content is made. The sharing is displayed in the memory consumption display of the ABAP debugger and in the Memory Inspector tool (as of release 6.20).

<b>Write</b>
Syntax Diagram
WRITE - TO
Syntax
WRITE {source|(source_name)} TO destination
                             [int_format_options].
Effect:
This statement assigns the formatted content of the data object source, or the formatted content of the data object whose name is contained in source_name, to the data object destination. The data objects source_name and destination must be character type and flat. source_name can contain the name of the data object to be assigned in upper or lower case. If the data object specified in source_name does not exist, the assignment is not executed, and sy-subrc is set to 4.
The statement WRITE TO has the same effect as the statement WRITE for lists. This statement formats the content of source or the source field specified in source_name as described in the field. It does not, however, store the result in an output area of a list in the list buffer, but instead stores it in a variable. The output length is determined by the length of the variable.
The same additions int_format_options can be specified for formatting the content as in the statement WRITE for lists, except for NO-GAP and UNDER.
System fields
sy-subrc Meaning
0 The data object specified in source_name was found and the assignment was executed.
4 The data object specified in source_name was not found and the assignment was not executed.
For the static specification of source, sy-subrc is not set.
Note:
If destination is specified as an untyped field symbol or an untyped formal parameter, and is not flat and character-type when the statement is executed, this leads to an untreatable exception in a Unicode program. In non-Unicode programs, this only leads to an exception for deep types. Flat types are handled as character-type data types.
Example:
After the assignment, the variables date_short and date_long receive the current date in the order specified in the user master record. The variable date_long also contains the defined separators, as the output length is sufficiently long. The content of the variable date_mask is formatted according to the formatting addition DD/MM/YY.
DATA: date_short(8) TYPE c,
      date_long(10) TYPE c,
      date_mask(8) TYPE c.
WRITE sy-datum TO: date_short,
                   date_long,
                   date_mask DD/MM/YY.
Exceptions
Non-Catchable Exceptions
Cause: Negative length specified for offset/length
Runtime Error: WRITE_TO_LENGTH_NEGATIVE
Cause: Negative offset specified in offset/length
Runtime Error: WRITE_TO_OFFSET_NEGATIVE
Cause: Offset specified in offset/length specification is longer than the field length.
Runtime Error: WRITE_TO_OFFSET_TOOLARGE

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 AM

Question 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 is the difference between start() and run()

Hi:
what is the difference between start() and the run()???
in my app, i have
Console.debug( "starting thread to listen for clients" );
_server = new Server( this );
_server.start();
_server extends Thread..
why everytime i use server.start(); my app will terminate on it is own, even though in my servr.run() method, i have a while loop
and if i call _server.run() explicitly in my code, that while loop will be in execution
can someone let me know??
thnx

what is the difference between start() and the
run()???start() is a method on Thread that tells it to start.
run() is a method in the object that the thread executes.
why everytime i use _server.start(); my app will
terminate on it is own, Err.... I'm not convinced this is true. It'll throw an IllegalThreadStateException, if you try to restart an existing thread.
If that's what you're saying.
even though in my _servr.run()
method, i have a while loopI don't see the connection. Are you saying that the while loop never terminates, and you don't see why the thread is terminating?
and if i call _server.run() explicitly in my code,
that while loop will be in executionIf you call server.run() explicitly, then run() will be executed in the same thread that you called it in.

What's the difference between thunderbolt and mini displayport?

I'm trying to connect my Macbook with a monitor and I'm thinking of what cable to get. I will have to connect using a (Thunderbolt to HDMI cable) or a (mini displayport to HDMI cable).
I was wondering what's the difference between Thunderbolt and mini displayport
Thanks

@bontistic: it is not true that only the Macbook Air supports Thunderbolt. All models(!) support thunderbolt: also the Macbook Pro's and Mini's. Eg.: http://www.apple.com/nl/macbookpro/features.html#thunderbolt
My Macbook Pro from 2011 already supported Thunderbolt...

What is the difference between, DSO and DTP in BI 7.0

Hi Guru's
what is the difference between, DSO and DTP in BI 7.0 , how it will come the data from r/3 to BI 7.0, can u discribe?
points will be assined?
Thanks & Regards,

Hi,
The data will be replicated in the same way as we do in 3.5.

What is the difference between TO_CHAR and TO_DATE()?

Hi everybody,
i am facing a problem in my system.It is quite urgent, can you explain me "What is the difference between TO_CHAR and TO_DATE()?".
According to user's requirement, they need to generate a code with format "YYMRRR".
YY = year of current year
M = month of current month (IF M >=10 'A' ,M >=11 'B' , M >=10 'C')
RRR = sequence number
Example: we have table USER(USER_ID , USER_NAME , USER_CODE)
EX: SYSDATE = "05-29-2012" MM-DD-YYYY
IF 10
ROW USER_ID , USER_NAME , USER_CODE
1- UID01 , AAAAA , 125001
2- UID02 , AAAAA , 125002
10- UID010 , AAAAA , 12A010
This is the original Script code. But This script runs very well at my Local. Right format. But it just happens wrong format on production.
12A010 (Right) => 11C010 (Wrong).
SELECT TO_CHAR(SYSDATE, 'YY') || DECODE( TO_CHAR(SYSDATE, 'MM'),'01','1', '02','2', '03','3', '04','4', '05','5', '06','6', '07','7', '08','8','09','9', '10','A', '11','B', '12','C') ||     NVL(SUBSTR(MAX(USER_CODE), 4, 3), '000') USER_CODE FROM TVC_VSL_SCH
     WHERE TO_CHAR(SYSDATE,'YY') = SUBSTR(USER_CODE,0,2)
     AND TO_CHAR(SYSDATE,'MM') = DECODE(SUBSTR(USER_CODE,3,1),'1','01',
          '2','02', '3','03', '4','04', '5','05',
          '6','06', '7','07', '8','08', '9','09',
          'A','10', 'B','11', 'C','12')
I want to know "What is the difference between TO_CHAR and TO_DATE()?".

try to use following select
with t as
(select TO_CHAR(SYSDATE, 'YY') ||
         DECODE(TO_CHAR(SYSDATE, 'MM'),
                '01', '1',
                '02', '2',
                '03', '3',
                '04', '4',
                '05', '5',
                '06', '6',
                '07', '7',
                '08', '8',
                '09', '9',
                '10', 'A',
                '11', 'B',
                '12', 'C') as code
    from dual)
SELECT t.code || NVL(SUBSTR(MAX(USER_CODE), 4, 3), '000') USER_CODE
FROM TVC_VSL_SCH
WHERE SUBSTR(USER_CODE, 1, 3) = t.codeand yes you need check time on your prodaction server
good luck
