Hi,
You assign Roles to Users and not to portals.
Check this to know about Role:
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw70/helpdata/EN/45/c0d8e962336000e10000000a1553f6/frameset.htm
So a role has contents that a user can see and also privilages that the user can have (UME Actions).
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw70/helpdata/EN/fb/33f520d15f8f4092a60381365620b2/frameset.htm
When a user is assigned certain roles which have contents and also UME Actions, this user sees them when he logs on onto the portal and also has this set of privilages.

What is the purpose of GL account in the account assignment tab of PO scree

hi,
in the purchase order screen, in the account assignment tab, there is a field labelled as GL account. May i know what is the purpose of this gl account because as far as i am concerned we need to specify the vendor gl account (in the vendor master) and the stock account and GR/IR account in BSX and WRX transactions in OBYC respectively.
In that case what is the purpose of specifyin a GL account in the purchase order account assignment tab?

Hi,
The fact is quite simple - When you are buying the material, you can be able to define if this is for inventorization or for consumption. If it is for inventory replenishment, then the stock account will be debited during GR posting. Otherwise, P&L account will be debited. The G/L account you have seen in your PO is always needed in case of direct consumption. At the time of GR posting, the posting lines will be -
1)   For stock item:
Dr     Stock Account (BSX Transaction/Event Key);
Cr     GR/IR Clearing Account (WRX Transaction/Event Key)
2)   In case of non-stock item:
Dr     P&L Account (GBB/xxx Transaction/Event Key where xxx is defined in the 'Account Modifier field of the related account assignment category setting in OME9 transaction - which is seen in the PO);
Cr    GR/IR Clearing Account (WRX Transaction/Event Key).

What is the purpose of Multiproviders???

Hi Everyone,
I am currently trying to create a multiprovider.
I have read the SAP documentation but I still do not understand in what circumstances should I create a multiprovider for reporting.
Would appreciate if anyone can provide details on what is the purpose of multiproviders?
Assuming I have the following scenario, should I create a multiprovider for reporting?
Infocube A:-
Characteristic
- Employee Number
- Cal Month/Year
- Shift Type
Key Figure
- Hours
Infocube B:-
Characteristic
- Employee Number
- Cal Month/Year
Key Figure
- Amount
I need to report on both the key figures for each employee and what is the shift type of the employee for the specific cal month/year. The employee number, cal month/year and shift type will be used as selection parameters.
I am thinking of creating a multiprovider for this reporting need but I think there will be some problems.
For example:
1) If I input the employee number and shift type as selection parameters, the amount column will be empty when the report is displayed.
2) If I input on the employee nunmber, then I'll be able to see both the key figures when the report is displayed but the data are on different lines which does not make sense to users.
Emp ID   Shift Type    Cal Mth/Yr   Hours     Amount
200001   Shift         05.2006       10
200001   Not assigned 05.2006                 1000
Only if I don't show the shift type column, then the record will be display in a single line.
How can I rectify such a problem.
Please advise.
Thanks.
Shunhui.

Hi,
A MultiProvider is a type of InfoProvider that combines data from a number of InfoProviders and makes it available for reporting purposes. The MultiProvider does not itself contain any data. Its data comes entirely from the InfoProviders on which it is based. These InfoProviders are connected to one another by a union operation.
InfoProviders and MultiProviders are the objects or views that are relevant for reporting.
Multiprovider - used when we want to report on chracteristics and keyfigures that are in different data targets.

What is new Gl account?what is the purpose of using that New Gl?

What is new Gl account?what is the purpose of using that New Gl?

Hi Kishore,
Let me clarify you. First it is not new GL account but the New GL functionality.
With the introduction of MySAP ERP 2004, SAP introduced also a new functionality with SAP Financials. This functionality is given the name New General Ledger Accounting, or NewGL.
The new GL functionality has many uses like
Supports different reporting purposes: Legal entity reporting, segment reporting, management reporting;
Option to expand standard accounting with industry specific fields and customer-defined fields;
There is a new standard field segment in mySAP ERP: A segment is typically derived from a profit center (PC); it can be filled manually or defaulted recommonded for segment reporting.
You can search the forum for more info on new GL
Thanks

What is the purpose of the 'Create Object View' option? I cannot find it in the documentation.

Hi Karen,
The Object Types are used to define the Parameters for the Callable Objects. We Can create the Object Views for the CAF Core Entity services or UME Pricipal Objects such as Users,Roles Groups etc. While creating the Object View we can select either of these and then we can create a view i..e. Select the required attributes from those Business Objects i.e. Entity Services or the Principals. Once we create the Object View, we can use them to define the Parameters for the callable Objects. While defining the parameters for Callable Objects, if you click the dropdown for 'Type', you'll see an entry 'Reference to BO'. If you select the entry, you'll see the list of Object Views you have created and you can select the Object View you want for defining that parameter. In short it means that you can create the Obect Views for the BOs i.e. CAF core Entity services and Pricipals. And then you can define the parameters for the Callable Objects with type 'Refence to BO' pointing to your object views.

While defining a columnar table, what is the purpose of column store type

Hi folks
I have two questions related to columnar table definition.
1. What is the purpose of column store type.
While defining a columnar table, what is the purpose of column store type (STRING ,CS_FIXEDSTRING,CS_INT etc) , when I define a table using the UI I see that the column is showing STRING but when I goto EXPORT SQL it does not show. Is this mandatory or optional ?
2.VARCHAR Vs. CHAR - In the UI when I create the table I do not see the CHAR option , but I do see lot of discussion where people are using CHAR for defining the columnar table. Not sure why UI dropdown does not show it. I also read that we should avoid using VARCHAR as those columns are not compressed, is that true, I thought the column store gives compression for all the columns. Are there certain columns which cannot be compressed .
Please let me know where I can find more information about these two questions.
Poonam

Hi Poonam
the CS_-data types are the data types that are used internally in the column store. They can be supplied but it is not at all required or recommended to do so.
SAP HANA will automatically use the correct CS_-data type for every SQL data type in your table definitions.
To be very clear about this: don't use the CS_-data types directly. Just stick to the SQL data types.
Concerning VARCHAR vs CHAR: fixed character data types are not supported anymore and don't show up anymore in the documentation.
I have no idea why you believe that VARCHAR columns are not compressed but this is just a myth.
create column table charcompr (fchar char(20), vchar varchar(20));
insert into charcompr (
    select lpad ('x', to_int (rand()*20), 'y'), null from objects cross join objects);
-- same data into both columns
update charcompr set vchar = fchar;
-- perform the delta merge and force a compression optimization
merge delta of charcompr;
update charcompr with parameters ('OPTIMIZE_COMPRESSION' ='FORCE');
-- check the memory requirements
select COLUMN_NAME, MEMORY_SIZE_IN_TOTAL, UNCOMPRESSED_SIZE, COUNT, DISTINCT_COUNT, COMPRESSION_TYPE
from m_cs_columns where table_name ='CHARCOMPR'
COLUMN_NAME    MEMORY_SIZE_IN_TOTAL    UNCOMPRESSED_SIZE   COUNT   DISTINCT_COUNT COMPRESSION_TYPE
FCHAR       3661                    70285738            6692569 20              RLE
VCHAR       3661                    70285738            6692569 20              RLE
We see: compression and memory requirements are the same for both fixed and variable character sizes.

What is the purpose of Destination Function on Submit Button?(Doesn't work)

Hi Gurus,
There is a property "Destination Function" on Submit buttons.
What is the purpose of this field.
I tried setting some values here expecting following behavior in order:
1. Process Form Request will get executed.
2. User will be navigated to the OAF page related to the Destination Function.
Destination Function property probably point to setInvokeFunction method of the OASubmitButtonBean.
Please advise on this.
Thanks and Regards,

What is the purpose of open/close connection data socket?

Hello everyone,
I am writing and reading values in OPC Server through data socket. What is the purpose of open/close connection data socket when writing /reading a value? Without the open/close connection element, it still work correctly. I am writing values in the server thru event stucture.I do not need any buffered reading or writing. What will happen if I didnt not use the open/close connection? Maybe it may cause some problems in my program which i didnt realise?
And I have attached an example of my program. Thanks

Hi YehChia,
I was talking about something like that:
1. Not good. since with every iteration the DS connection needs to be opened and closed.
2. Good. Since you open the connection only once then do the reads and close it afterwords.

IPod Touch Newbie: What is the purpose of the iTunes app on my iPod Touch?

What is the purpose of the iTunes app on my iPod Touch?
All it does is connect to the iTunes store if I'm near a WiFi connection. It appears to be useful only for impulse purchasing of media. So why is it not named "iTunes Store"? It appears to have no other function.
Also, to listen to my iTunes music on iPod Touch I have to click on the Music button...not the iTunes app. What logic is that?
Also, iTunes has synced a movie for me, but I have no clue how to view it on the iPod Touch. It doesn't appear in iTunes on the iPod Touch, and there is no "Movie" button anywhere. What am I missing? I can't find it anywhere.

For purchasing music, downloading podcasts,etc.

OIM: What is the purpose of "Update" while editing group memberships

Hi,
This is when you lookup a user's Resource Profile and go to "Edit" link. The process form shows up along with a drop down to edit the group memberships. When we select one of the choices such as "Groups" another window pops up where we could add more entires into the child form. In this form there is an "Update" column with a radio button besides a "Remove" column. What is the purpose of this "Update" column? We can add or delete child entries but what does update do? Is there a way to remove this selection altogether?
Thanks in advance

Update I can see used for a cases where you have multiple columns on a child table entry and want to change one of them. Strictly speaking, you can update a single column child table rather than delete and insert also. Access policies always do insert and delete actions, but you will want to implement an update task as well if you expect anyone to be editing child tables on resources directly.

What is the purpose of Defining a requirement in the procedure?

Hi
I have a query related to the Output type .
What is the purpose of Defining a requirement in the procedure?
And where shall we code for a new requirement and also what shall we code in it?
Thanks

Requirement Use
If the requirement is fulfilled (SY-SUBRC = 0), then output determination also takes into consideration output type or the access sequence, for which the requirement has been specified.
Output determination:
An object that checks whether the application data (for example, data determined in Customizing) corresponds to the condition records.
If this is the case, one or several messages are "found," which can then be processed (for example, sent electronically).
The condition records are searched for according to a predefined hierarchy in message determination.
After defining a new requirement no say 604 for billing pricing procedure and activating it, the standard sap system creates a routine with the no: 604 specifically for billing. So the name of the program automatically created by SAP will have the naming convention something like RV64A604. then you need an access key to go to the change mode for writing any logic. Then just put a break-point and then execute VF01 or VF04, then the cursor position directly goes into this routine, where the pricing structures KOMK and KOMP have the visibility. So based on the values flowing inside this structures, you can probably code that suites the business requirements.
there are some useful transactions like VOFM for maintaining the requirements and formulaes for a pricing procedure.
For viewing the requirements in the procedure you can also go to V/08 transaction.
