What is the difference using start condition and check function module

what is the difference  between using start condition and check function module

That's new to me, I thought a start condition was evaluated before the workflow started, and thus now workflow work item is available. That's why I think the only situation in which start conditions/check functions can't be used, is when the availability of a workflow log for investigation of exactly what stopped the workflow is a requirement.
I suppose the <a href="http://help.sap.com/saphelp_46c/helpdata/en/4c/86bf43feca11d2a64f0060087a79ea/frameset.htm">SAP documentation</a> is in need of an update.

  • Start conditions and check function modules

    Hi,
    When we apply start conditions to any particular even linkage you will find check function module as SWB_2_CHECK_FB_START_COND_EVAL. However, what if i want to implement both a custom check function module AND start conditions ?
    My requirement is to implement both start conditions and check function module.
    Is this possible ?
    Thank you,
    Nikhil.

    Hi,
    You can use both of the things, however its advisable to check all start conditions if you are using check FM.
    This is interface for custom  check FM,once you have the key value, you can put all the checks here

  • What's the difference between F.28 and reset function of FD32?

    Dear Exports,
    I have excluded a reconciliation account(Unearned sales revenue) from Credit management update by tcode AKOF.
    Followed, I run F.28 to reset credit data. however, the credit limit data(Special liability & Credit exposure) is not reset; the value only be updated when I excute the reset funtion of FD32(credit management/reset).
    What should I do, if I want to reset all customers' credit data?
    BR, Patty

    Hello,
    Might have to contact SAP on this one, whether there is any MASS transaction that can be used, or an OSS note with a special program.  Because for F.28 the organisational data is not being changed in your situation.

  • 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.

  • In OSX Activity Monitor, what's the difference between 'free' memory and 'inactive' memory

    In OS X Activity Monitor, what's the difference between 'free' memory and 'inactive' memory. My daughters 2Gb MacBook Pro is very slow, it probably needs more memory but there is almost 1Gb of 'inactive' memory but no 'free' memory when an application is opened.
    Thanks

    Free RAM is the one that has not been used by any application since you started up your Mac, and inactive RAM is the one that was used by an application and it is not in use anymore.
    1 GB of inactive RAM is a lot, and it may be the cause of the slowness. There are a lot of apps that allows you to turn inactive into free RAM. I use FreeMemory, but have a look at the Mac App Store.
    If you are a developer, you can do that with a command you can type into Terminal:
    sudo purge

  • What's the difference between gnome, kde and xfce?

    What's the difference between gnome, kde and xfce? Today I heard someone said gnome and kde have more software than xfce. Is that real?
    Thank you.
    Last edited by thesimpsons (2009-04-02 01:50:28)

    Its really a matter of taste, really. KDE is know to be configurable like hell, GNOME very easy to use, and XFCE lightweitgh.
    Keep in mind that whatever desktop environment (DE) you choose, you can use any application in any DE. For example, firefox, a "GTK" application, works without problem under KDE. Or Kile, a latex front-end for KDE, works perfect under Gnome.
    Personnally I prefer KDE. But I mostly prefer KDE applications like the editors (Kate/Kwrite) and file manager (dolphin).
    KDE is slower to start on my EeePC (really small machine) but because it is full featured, I can cut on number of packages installed, so in the end, with the same functionality, I have more room on my disk then using XFCE!
    Just try them, and choose the one you like

  • What's the difference between reguler KDE and KDEmod?

    Hello all,
    In two weeks I get my new laptop, which will be capable of running Arch and KDE ( as my current computer isn't, somehow it only runs Fedora w/ Gnome)
    Since I really like Arch and already got it working on Virtualbox, I want to install it on my new laptop. I'd like to get it working with KDE, but I noticed Arch also has KDEmod. I already searched the forums but couldn't really find an answer to my question: What is the difference between regular KDE and KDEmod and which one is better for me to use?
    Thanks in advance!

    Allan, i forgive you for your poor paragraph construction and sorry for me being a bit peeved
    However, i know you have read more from the IRC log than just that one sentence by me...
    Allan wrote:
    From the IRC log, I do not think that conclusion is too far off, especially if you are considering Arch-Stable as your base...  So saying "plain wrong" seems... well...  plain wrong. Especially given the irc log:
    <funkyou> in one sentence: to do what we really want to do, we need a stable platform.
    So why not showing the whole picture and clear this up:
    <funkyou> ok, to start: i think at least some of you have noticed that arch linux is a fine platform for what we want to deliver, but there are some little "annoyances"
    <funkyou> mainly:
    <funkyou> -.so bumps every few weeks
    <funkyou> -the general "freshness"
    <funkyou> -a lot of manual interaction needed (sometimes)
    <funkyou> everyone can see these problems when looking at the forums, _most_ of them are related to updates
    <funkyou> in one sentence: to do what we really want to do, we need a stable platform.
    Makes more sense now? Its not that Arch is too unstable, its just that we cant keep up will all the changes... And this is not Archs "fault" nor anyone elses fault, its just going too fast for us. Most annoying or severe bugs in our tools are there due to upstream updates. And the reasons are not really the .so bumps (which are mostly solved by a simple rebuild) but also constantly changing apis and stuff. This is not a big problem in KDE (they keep their apis clean), but a big one when it comes to other stuff like parted, to give an example. And this is our main problem, we need to constantly adapt our code to upstream changes.
    This even resulted in a repo with modified or "frozen" Arch packages just to keep our liveCD going, and now we are looking for solutions for this problem, and "stable" snapshots seem to be one way... Oh, and if we would do this (there is nothing announced yet), we would do our own snapshot every X months because ArchStable seems to be a dead project. We also considered cooperating with the ArchServer guys, but their stuff is really made for servers, so even while their project is really nice its not really an option for us.
    Well, we'll see what we will do during the next months, now we are still testing and evaluating some solutions... Oh, and people, please stop any "we dont need another ubuntu" complaints...

  • What's the difference between XI basis and regular basis?

    I am an SAP basis admin for years.
    Now my corp starts to use XI.
    What is the difference between XI basis and regular basis if there is any?
    Thanks!

    Hi,
    No difference... Basis is Basis (Technical consultant)... According to me its just terminology changed. i.e. SAP Administrator instead of SAP basis.
    For XI you may need to additionally control the Java stack administartion along with ABAP stack.
    Please go thourgh the below link to know about SAP NetWeaver Administrator, then you may compare with regular Basis activities

  • What is the difference between standard,sorted and hash table

    <b>can anyone say what is the difference between standard,sorted and hash tabl</b>

    Hi,
    Standard Tables:
    Standard tables have a linear index. You can access them using either the index or the key. If you use the key, the response time is in linear relationship to the number of table entries. The key of a standard table is always non-unique, and you may not include any specification for the uniqueness in the table definition.
    This table type is particularly appropriate if you want to address individual table entries using the index. This is the quickest way to access table entries. To fill a standard table, append lines using the (APPEND) statement. You should read, modify and delete lines by referring to the index (INDEX option with the relevant ABAP command). The response time for accessing a standard table is in linear relation to the number of table entries. If you need to use key access, standard tables are appropriate if you can fill and process the table in separate steps. For example, you can fill a standard table by appending records and then sort it. If you then use key access with the binary search option (BINARY), the response time is in logarithmic relation to
    the number of table entries.
    Sorted Tables:
    Sorted tables are always saved correctly sorted by key. They also have a linear key, and, like standard tables, you can access them using either the table index or the key. When you use the key, the response time is in logarithmic relationship to the number of table entries, since the system uses a binary search. The key of a sorted table can be either unique, or non-unique, and you must specify either UNIQUE or NON-UNIQUE in the table definition. Standard tables and sorted tables both belong to the generic group index tables.
    This table type is particularly suitable if you want the table to be sorted while you are still adding entries to it. You fill the table using the (INSERT) statement, according to the sort sequence defined in the table key. Table entries that do not fit are recognised before they are inserted. The response time for access using the key is in logarithmic relation to the number of
    table entries, since the system automatically uses a binary search. Sorted tables are appropriate for partially sequential processing in a LOOP, as long as the WHERE condition contains the beginning of the table key.
    Hashed Tables:
    Hashes tables have no internal linear index. You can only access hashed tables by specifying the key. The response time is constant, regardless of the number of table entries, since the search uses a hash algorithm. The key of a hashed table must be unique, and you must specify UNIQUE in the table definition.
    This table type is particularly suitable if you want mainly to use key access for table entries. You cannot access hashed tables using the index. When you use key access, the response time remains constant, regardless of the number of table entries. As with database tables, the key of a hashed table is always unique. Hashed tables are therefore a useful way of constructing and
    using internal tables that are similar to database tables.

    Ferry Lianto

  • What is the Difference Between Sys Date and Effective Date ??

    Hi Gurus,
    Can any one pls let me know What is the Difference Between Sys Date and Effective Date ??
    with regards
    User600722

    EFFECTIVE DATE usually refers to a date-tracked record (although not exclusively).
    Date-tracked records in Oracle HR have an EFFECTIVE START DATE and an EFFECTIVE END DATE. The record is 'EFFECTIVE' between these dates. In reports, you often use SYSDATE to compare to these two dates to find the CURRENT effective record, e.g. SYSDATE BETWEEN EFFECTIVE START DATE AND EFFECTIVE END DATE.
    When you make changes to a HR record, you can choose between DATE TRACKING options, such as CORRECT or UPDATE (there are others too). CORRECT will overwrite the record and replace the data with your changes. This is normally used when you need to correct something that is wrong. UPDATE will create a new version of the record from the EFFECTIVE START DATE you choose. It will also set the EFFECTIVE END DATE of the previous record to the day before your new record's EFFECTIVE START DATE. That enables a history of records to be maintained so you can see what your data looked like at ay one point in time.
    Regards
    Tim

  • What is the difference between Data Warehousing and Big Data?

    What is the difference between Big Data and
    Data Warehousing? are they the same? similar? if no, then when to use each of them?
    Any link to a paper that describes the difference?!

    Big Data is a term applied to data sets whose size is beyond the ability of commonly used tools to capture, manage and process the data within a tolerable elapsed time. But Data-warehouse is a collection of data marts representing historical data from different
    operations in the company.
    It means Big Data is collection of large data in a particular manner but Data-warehouse collect data from different department of a organization. However Data-warehouse require efficient managing technique. Conceptually these are same only at one factor that
    they collect large amount of information
    For Big Data - You can start researching on HDInsight and for Datawarehouse check MSBI
