What is the main diff b/n ldb pnp and pnpce?

hi ,
what is the main diff b/n ldb pnp and pnpce?
thanks.

Hi Arun,
  PNP/PNPCE  - Both are Logical Databases for PA Module
In PNPCE - CE stands for Concurrent Employment.
The differnces are:
The PNPCE logical database supports the evaluation of HR master data. It includes the functions of the PNP logical database and offers additional evaluation options. Therefore, you should use the PNPCE logical database instead of the PNP logical database for all new developments.
The enhanced functionality of PNPCE in comparison to PNP essentially concerns the evaluation of Concurrent Employment, that is the possibility to group evaluate several assignments/personnel numbers of a person. The new events 'GET PERSON' and 'GET GROUP' as well as an enhanced syntax for the INFOTYPES statement (addition AS PERSON TABLE) for the procurement of infotype data enable you to use the new functionality. The use of these new functions is optional. You can run a PNPCE report that does not use the new events and the addition for the INFOTYPES statement in a PNP-compatible session. Since the PNPCE also has an improved selection screen, each report benefits from this even if the report does not use the functions for evaluating Concurrent Employment.
Hope this helps you.
Regards,
Chandra Sekhar

  • What is the main diff between the IDOC, RFC,PROXY

    HI,
      May i know in witch situation we will go for : 1) Idoc
               2) RFC
                   3) Proxy.
    i hope we use above three are for posting data in R3 system.
    can any one please clarify when exactly we use witch adapter.
    regards

    Hi
    IDoc
    It is used only for data transfer.It lies on ABAP Atack.also the underlying protocol is tRFC.
    RFC
    It is used when you need to process data and return values to remote system.That is it is used in synchronous scenarios.It lies on J2EE/Java Stack.It is not a data container like IDoc.It calls a functional module which gets executed.The underlying protocol is HTTP.Communication is done suing JCO/JCA.
    Performance wise IDocs are better.
    Proxies are used when large amount of data is involved.
    Also go through this.

  • What are the main differences between Parallels 7,8 and 9?

    Hello!
    I need to run a Windows only program on my computer for school and was wondering if it would be suitable to just get an old version of Parallels 7 or if I need the new software on the 9?  I have a brand new Macbook that I bought a month ago!
    Thanks!

    Your Macbook Pro can run parallels 7:
    To install and set up Parallels Desktop 7 for Mac, you need:
    • A Mac compute rwith:
    • An Intel Core 2 Duo processor or better
    • At least 2GB of RAM (4GB recommended to run Windows 7)
    • At least 1.4GB of space available on the boot volume (the volume that has Mac OS X) for Parallels Desktop installation
    • 15 GB of available disk space for Windows
    • Mac OS X Lion 10.7 or later, Mac OS X Snow Leopard v10.6.8 or later, or Mac OS X
    Leopard v10.5.8 or later

  • What are the main differences in features between FCP and FCE?

    I'm buying filmmaking equipment for my teenage son, who has shown himself to be serious about getting started making shorts. One big decision (regarding costs and $$$ allocation for other system elements such as the computer and camcorder)is whether to get Final Cut Pro (studio version) or Final Cut Express. He has used Final Cut in several camps and film school programs. Feedback will be most appreciated!

    FCP can't be bought by itself, however Final Cut Studio includes Color, Motion, and DVD Studio Pro.... FCE will not edit any format except DV and HDV. FCP will edit most every format. FCP is keyframeable, where FCE really isn't. There really is a ton of difference between the two apps. FCE has no media management, has fewer effects, etc... One's an enthusiasts' program and the other (Final Cut Studio) is a full professional suite of software... it's certainly worth the difference, but might be more than you want to spend. FCE is a subset of code taken from FCP, so learning it will help with learning FCP... the interface is nearly identical.

  • Change existence report LDB PNP to PNPCE

    Hi HR experts !!!
    We want to convert all the existence reports which are using <b>PNP</b> to <b>PNPCE</b>? Do you guys have idea how much time it’ll take? As we have around 1000 reports.
    I need your input guys
    Cheers
    Usman

    Usman,
        I am also on HR project . We’re also discussing the same thing !! but it looks like it need another project to change the LDB to PNPCE as reason being  lots of reports are written using PNP logic in mind.
    But PNPCE Behaves different . Well I must say its another project to change 1000 reports
    FYI...
    It is better to go in for PNPCE even if you do not have Concurrent Employment to take advantage of the new lDB. The one thing PNPCE does do is when the GET executes only the infotype records retrieved for the interval requested will be retrieved. Whereas PNP by default, will retrieve all infotype records for a given PERNR.
    SAP recommends to use PNPCE for all new development. But all the features are not available as of now. The Time Management functions for concurrent employment have not been released for all customers. They are activated for selected pilot customers only. Can get some info in SAP Note : 518520 , 516489..
    OSS Note # 561645 ( LDB PNPCE: compatibility with PNP )
    Symptom
    In some respects, logical database PNPCE responds differently from logical database PNP. This may cause errors in applications that do not know this difference.
    Other terms
    PNP, PNPCE, payroll period, PNPTIMR9, PNPTIMRA, error message, information message
    Reason and Prerequisites
    There are the following differences between logical databases PNP and PNPCE:
    Unlike PNP, logical database PNPCE does not have two radio buttons you can use to set the payroll period (parameters PNPTIMR9 and PNPTIMRA). Instead, the payroll period is set via parameter PNPTIMED (displayed as a dropdown box on the selection screen). This difference must be taken into account when you call a PNPCE report from another program. Otherwise, in incorrect system response occurs in the PNPCE report called. Problems may also occur if you convert an existing PNP report to PNPCE and want to use an old (PNP) variant.
    If you enter an invalid payroll arear or an invalid payroll period, PNP issues an error message whereas PNPCE only issues an information message. This causes problems if you run a PNPCE report in the background because in this case the program runs into an endless loop instead of terminating.
    Solution
    Implement the attached corrections or import the corresponding support package.
    This changes PNPCE in such a way that it responds like PNP
    Moreover, also look at OSS
    PNPCE: Performance improvement  ( OSS note # 687004)
    Symptom
    You use a report that is based on logical database PNPCE. Either the performance of the report is poor, or the program terminates due to a memory overflow.
    Other terms
    Performance, PNPCE, 0000, 0001, buffer, memory space, memory space consumption, partitioning, FILL_0000_0001_BUFFER, T77S0, LDB, PCEPS, PNP mode
    Reason and Prerequisites
    The PNPCE can be used in a PNP-compatible mode. The mode is 'PNP-compatible' if the report does not program on events GET PERSON and GET GROUP and does not use the 'AS PERSON TABLE' extension for the INFOTYPES statements (for more details refer to the documentation of logical database PNPCE in Transaction SE36).
    In this mode the performance is worse, as if logical database PNP is used. After the implementation of the correction from this note, the performance is significantly improved.
    Another problem is that all personnel numbers that meet the entered selection criteria are internally selected during the execution of the report. Then the system imports all data records of infotypes 0000 and 0001 for all these personnel numbers because they are needed for the internal processing for different reasons. If the amount of personnel numbers or the amount of data records per personnel number is very large, memory problems can occur. The attached correction solves the memory problems.
    Solution
    Implement the correction according to the correction instructions or import the corresponding Support Package. If you implement the correction manually, you first have to implement Note 705870.
    A part of the correction causes the internal processing of the persons/personnel numbers in blocks. If logical database PNPCE runs in PNP mode, the block-by-block processing is executed based on personnel numbers. Otherwise (in CE mode) it is executed based on persons. In PNP mode, logical database PNPCE behaves exactly like logical database PNP concerning the block processing. The settings are also made along the lines of logical database PNP. For a more detailed description refer to Note 705870.
    Standard setting of the block size
    In CE mode the block size is set to 10,000 persons by default. That is, as long as the number of selected persons does not exceed this value, no block processing is executed at all. A memory space analyses showed that this does not cause problems with the memory space in a system with an average number of infotype 0000 and infotype 0001 data records. However, if the amount of data records (= splits) is very large in your system, you have to reduce the maximum block size manually.
    Manual setting of the block size
    There are two different options to set the block size manually: a) report-specific by means of a switch which you have to set in the source code of the report, and b) cross-system by means of a switch in switch table T77S0.
    The report-specific switch is called PNP_MAX_PARTITION_SIZE. It has priority (if switch T77S0 is activated) and must be set in the source code of the report at event START-OF-SELECTION at the latest.
    Example: Set the maximum block size (number of persons that can be processed together) to 250:
    START-OF-SELECTION.
      PNP_MAX_PARTITION_SIZE = 250.
    The switch is recommended for customer-specific reports requiring a lot of memory and therefore need to minimize the additional memory space of logical database PNPCE. It is not suited for SAP standard reports because the report would have to be modified in that case.
    The cross-system switch is maintained in table T77S0. It affects all reports that are based on logical database PNPCE and do not use the report-specific switch PNP_MAX_PARTITION_SIZE.
    The switch belongs to the LDB group and is called PCEPS. The switch is maintained in Transaction SM30 (enter table 'T77S0' and choose 'Maintain'). The switch is delivered (for Release 4.70 in a Support Package) with initial value (0). An initial value causes the switch to be ignored and the standard setting to be used instead. If you want to set the switch, set it to a numeric value. This value specifies the maximum number of persons that are processed together in a block.
    Example:
    LDB  PCEPS  250
    For more information on the procedure of a system upgrade refer to Note 317722

    Hi Vijay,
    ED-standard schema for describing the message structure.If you have the structure provided to you from some external application you can use it in PI directly without recreating in PI.you can import following formats which are used to describe message schema
    WSDL (Web Service Description Language),
    XSD (XML Schema Definition Language),
    DTDs (Document Type Definitions)
    Imported Archives: its used basically for java and xslt mapping where you create the required mapping externally using some tools
    (java-eclipse/NWDS .XSLT-stylus studio).You can also implement XSLT and Java mappingsf and save them as archives in the Integration Repository.

    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.
    Regards,
    Samad.
