What is the need to clone an object

What is the need to clone an object
give me the scenarios where we use cloneable interface

In a very simple statements,
clone method will return the new object with the
SAME SOURCE STATE. Where as
creating an object using "new" will give completely
new object.According to whom? I was under the impression that the state of the object returned by calling close was not defined except from what is returned by the Object class.
As for clone being faster than constructors, it can be. It depends on what the constructor does. For instance, I'm sure its faster to clone an ArrayList than to create a new one by passing the old one into its constructor. Depends on the implementation of the constructor vs. the implementation of the clone.
Again, do not expose clone because its behavior is not defined. Create an interface with a methd on it, and define what that method returns. Then use clone to create your base object to construct the copy to return.

What is the need of ALE/ IDOC

Hi All,
What is the need of ALE/ IDoc and why we go for ALE?IDOC with conditions
Let me know the answers if anyone have the solution
Regards'
Ramesh

ALE (Application Linking and Enabling)
Ale Technology is SAPs technology to support distributed yet integrated processes across several SAP systems.
IDocs (Intermediate Documents) are the crux of ALE. These are the documents with the help of which data is exchanged between SAP R/3 and non-R/3 systems. As the name suggests, these documents act as intermediate storage of information, which can be sent bi-directionally. Message types are responsible for creation of Idocs.
IDocs
Data Creation in Idoc
IDocs are text encoded documents with a rigid structure that are used to exchange data between R/3 and a foreign system. Instead of calling a program in the destination system directly, the data is first packed into an IDoc and then sent to the receiving system, where it is analyzed and properly processed. Therefore an IDoc data exchange is always an
asynchronous process. The significant difference between simple RFC-calls and IDoc data exchange is the fact, that every action performed on IDocs are protocolled by R/3 and IDocs can be reprocessed if an error occurred in one of the message steps.
While IDocs have to be understood as a data exchange protocol, EDI and ALE are typical use cases for IDocs. R/3 uses IDocs for both EDI and ALE to deliver data to the receiving system. ALE is basically the scheduling mechanism that defines when and between which partners and what kind of data will be exchanged on a regular or event triggered basis. Such a set-up is called an ALE-scenario.
IDoc is a intermediate document to exchange data between two SAP Systems.
*IDocs are structured ASCII files (or a virtual equivalent).
*Electronic Interchange Document
*They are the file format used by SAP R/3 to exchange data with foreign systems.
*Data Is transmitted in ASCII format, i.e. human readable form
*IDocs exchange messages
*IDocs are used like classical interface files
IDOC types are templates for specific message types depending on what is the business document, you want to exchange.
WE30 - you can create a IDOC type.
An IDOC with data, will have to be triggered by the application that is trying to send out the data.
FOr testing you can use WE19.

An IDoc is simply a data container that is used to exchange information between any two processes that can understand the syntax and semantics of the data...
1.IDOCs are stored in the database. In the SAP system, IDOCs are stored in database tables.
2.IDOCs are independent of the sending and receiving systems.
3.IDOCs are independent of the direction of data exchange.
The two available process for IDOCs are
Outbound Process
Inbound Process
AND There are basically two types of IDOCs.
Basic IDOCs
Basic IDOC type defines the structure and format of the business document that is to be exchanged between two systems.
Extended IDOCs
Extending the functionality by adding more segments to existing Basic IDOCs.
To Create Idoc we need to follow these steps:
Create Segment ( WE31)
Create Idoc Type ( WE30)
Create Message Type ( WE81)
Assign Idoc Type to Message Type ( WE82)

What is the need of creating partner functions for sales document type.

Hi SAP (SD-GURUS),
Actually we create partner functions before creating customer ex: sold to party, ship to party, bill to party, and payer.
These partner functions are going to be copied into sales order while processing sales order.
Again what is the need of creating partner functions for sales document type.
Thanks&Regards
sreenivas peruru

There are some Partners you could enter at Sales ORder Level. E.g. Sales Person, Employee Responsible, Forwarding Agent, Broker, etc.
Thus these partner Determination need to be carried out at Sales Order Level & not at Customer Master level.
So we have to configure partner Determination for various levels e.g. Customer Master, Sales Order, Delivery level etc...
Hope this helps...
THanks,

What is the need of creating New order type in PO

Dear Experts,
I have a doubt in MM, what is the need of creating New Order Types? Please explain with Business scenario. Thanking you,
Regards,
Elangovan.A

Hi Elangovan
Whenever you have a doubt like this...
--- just verify the config settings for your parameter (order type here).
---Also check whether authorizations can be given for this ?
---Do you need it for specific analysis ? Are there standard reports/listings available ?
So, some of the uses of order type are:
1) What are the parameters controlled by order type ?
It controls the number ranges and screen layouts etc. So, if you want to have different set of number ranges and different screen settings, then you may need a new order type.
2) Authorizations can be controlled with order type.
3) You can also use it in analysis/listings
Best regards

What are the lock modes in Lock object

What are the lock modes in Lock object ?
what are the divfferences between
Exclusive , cumulative
Shared
Exclusive , not cumulative
Could any body explain what happens in each table lock ?
How the lock consists ?

HI
Lock objects are used to synchronize access to the same data by more than one program.
The lock mode controls whether several users can access data records at the same time. The lock mode can be assigned separately for each table in the lock object. When the lock is set, the corresponding lock entry is stored in the lock table of the system for each table.
There are three types of lock modes
1.Exclusive
2.Shared
3.Exclusive not cummulative
Exclusive lock: The locked data can only be displayed or edited by a single user. A request for another exclusive lock or for a shared lock is rejected.
Shared lock: More than one user can access the locked data at the same time in display mode. A request for another shared lock is accepted, even if it comes from another user. An exclusive lock is rejected.
Exclusive but not cumulative: Exclusive locks can be requested several times from the same transaction and are processed successively. In contrast, exclusive but not cumulative locks can be called only once from the same transaction. All other lock requests are rejected.

A manufacturer part profile contains indicators and control parameters, which define the conditions for using (inventory-managed or non-inventory-managed) manufacturer parts in the procurement process.
The manufacturer part profile specifies how manufacturer parts (MPN materials) can be used in the procurement process.
The manufacturer part profile is assigned to the master record for a firm's own inventory-managed material.
Among other things, it determines whether:
u2022     The MPN material or the inventory-managed material is to be entered in a purchase order
u2022     Info records can be created for the MPN material or the firm's own material
u2022     The MPN material can be changed during the procurement process

What is the use of an access object in a BOL hierarchy ????

Hi All,
I want to know what is the use of an access object in BOL hierarchy .... if we can use a search object to search for entities ... then in what scenario will an access object be used ?
Regards,
Ashish

Hi Dominik,
Thanks for the repy !!!!
Now, as you said we can access a (deep) node of the whole model using an access object.
Let us consider the component set ONEORDER. As seen we can use the following path to reach BTDocFlowAll using search object :-
BTQuery1O -> BTOrder -> BTOrderHeader -> BTHeaderDocFlowSet -> BTDocFlowSet -> BTDocFlowAll ....
Also, to reach BTDocFlowAll we can even use the access object as follows :-
BTAdminI -> BTItemDocFlowSet -> BTDocFlowAll....
Now my question is :-
Normally we use the class cl_crm_bol_query_service to fire a search based on a search object. Can we use the same class to fire a search based on access object ?
(actually I currently dont have a CRM system so I could not try it out myself).
If not, then how do we fire a query using an access object ?
Regards,
Ashish

What is the use of various text objects in text determination

Dear All,
What is the use of various text objects in text determination.e.g the sale document header object(In this what we define and where that text is copied further) and
other text objects i.e customer/accounting,billing header etc.
Regards,
Ashima

Hi,
To exchange information between the User and the System as well as between the objects (Ex: Customer to Sales document, Sales document to Delivery Document) SAP uses Text Determination to determine or to propose Text. Text can be determined for objects like customer master, all documents, condition records, customer material info records, etc...

What is the Need for communication between Flex ActionScript to Javascript

Hi ,
Flex has made it communication possible from FLEX Mx:script to Java Script .
Can anybody could please tell me what is the need or any scenario for communication Flex with Javascript
Thanks in advance .

1- Printing in Flex is terrible (although for simpler requirements it can do fine), true, but it's not incredibly better elsewhere in the browser unless I'm missing the point. This can be gotten around for many by streaming PDFs or Excel spreadsheets from a server, though.
2- If it has to be web, I guess you're stuck. If it can be an installed app (AIR) I'd prefer to hook into Java. Like I said, there may be some limited specific uses, but good reasons to base the majority of your app on JS hacks are hard to come by.
