What is the use of Return indicator in Service entry sheets

Hi,
I would like to know the use of Return Indicator ?, and When actually we can use this. Please advise.
Thanks
Udaya

Hi
The Return Active indicator enables you to specify that a return is possible when time sheets are converted into external services (i.e. incorporated in service entry sheets).
If you have selected the activation indicator for the return, you can retrospectively change a time or quantity in a time sheet that you have already incorporated in a service entry sheet. As soon as you convert this changed time sheet into external services, the system generates generates both a service entry sheet with the new data and a return document cancelling the original data. The system sets the Return Indicator in this document.
Where you can use this Indicator
In a time sheet for which you have already created a service entry sheet you subsequently change a specified time or quantity and reconvert the time sheet into an entry sheet for externally performed services. The system then creates both an entry sheet with the new data and an entry sheet in which the original data is cancelled and the returns indicator is selected.
The return indicator cannot be selected manually, but is set only by the system after the conversion of a changed time sheet into external services.
To facilitate the return of time sheets during the service entry process, you must select the relevant Activation Indicator in Customizing for External Services Management.
Source Determination and Default Values -> Specify for Client -> Returns Active.

What is the use of OR and AND functions in counter based maint plan

Hi
I want to create a counter based maintenance plan...
I entered the measurement reading for the counter, reading is 4000 hrs
IN IP43
I created the counter plan with cycle as 6000 hrs. Once the document reaches 6000 order will be created. While creating the maintenance plan, in the maintenance schedule parameters, i check there is OR and AND functions avaliable...
I know the basic use of both the functions..
But what is the significance in the maintenance plan....
Will it give any effect, between the schedule date and measurement docu entries...
Since i need to maintain like... once the counter reaches 6000 hrs only order should be created.. it should not create once the date as been reached... since due to present condition, i am not running the DG....
Give ur inputs
- Pithan

Hi
Thank you for your reply
As you said...
If you want order to be created only after certain Hrs to be reached to cycle value then you may opt for single cycle or strategy cycle
can u explain how to do it...
In single cycle or stratergy... if u schedule the plan itself, the dates will be populated.. it will calculate with respect to the annual reading we have entered in the measurement document...
My DG overhaul to be taken in every 6000 hrs... i create a plan... i have given the annual reading as 8000 hrs... if i schedule the plan for 5 yrs... wat will be the call objects...
Then i am running the DG for 3 hours a day... my annual running hrs will be 1000 hours.. but my order will be released since it has crossed the dates...
how to control... is it possible to do it in IP43 with multiple counter...
How to do this ?
Cna u explain

What is the use of initial value in a database table?

Hi can anyone help me in knowing what is the use of initial value which is present besides primary key while creating a table?

Initial Value:
Indicator that NOT NULL is forced for this field
Use
Select this flag if a field to be inserted in the database is to be filled with initial values. The initial value used depends on the data type of the field.
Please note that fields in the database for which the this flag is not set can also be filled with initial values.
When you create a table, all fields of the table can be defined as NOT NULL and filled with an initial value. The same applies when converting the table. Only when new fields are added or inserted, are these filled with initial values. An exception is key fields. These are always filled automatically with initial values.
Restrictions and notes:
The initial value cannot be set for fields of data types LCHR, LRAW, and RAW. If the field length is greater than 32, the initial flag cannot be set for fields of data type NUMC.
If a new field is inserted in the table and the initial flag is set, the complete table is scanned on activation and an UPDATE is made to the new field. This can be very time-consuming.
If the initial flag is set for an included structure, this means that the attributes from the structure are transferred. That is, exactly those fields which are marked as initial in the definition have this attribute in the table as well.
hope it helps,
Saipriya

What is the use of Storage loc.ref.in LE-WM Interface to Inventory Managemt

Hi Guys
What is the use of below fields
Special movement indicator for warehouse management and Storage loc. ref.
In the WM configaration LE-WM Interface to Inventory Management
How we can do the below scenario with this configaration
I have 3 scenarios all scenarios have MIGO and placing stock to WM
2 scenarios requres Immediate TO creation after MIGO 101 mvt type
But last scenario does not want Immediate TO ,it is having another Z transaction to create TO
But problem is for the last scenario also creating Immdiate TO after MIGI 101
How to avoid this Immdiate TO for this scenario
And How to allow it for first 2 scenarios
How we can to with that configaration

Hello ,
It is not possible directly in customising as all three cases are using the same Mvt Type.
Alternate Solution :
You may try an by creating a new Mvt Type 901 i.e making a copy of 101.
Thereafter try to link a new Ref Mvt Type to the same .You should use this case for the third scenario.
This may resolve your problem.

What is the use of 'keep' parameter in BDC

Hi
In BDC while transfering data, what is the use of 'keep' parameter in BDC.

Hi Jyothsna,
In the function module BDC_OPEN_GROUP, the EXPORTING parameter KEEP acts as a deletion indicator for session in which the batch data executed.
CALL FUNCTION 'BDC_OPEN_GROUP'
EXPORTING
CLIENT = SY-MANDT
DEST = FILLER8
GROUP = FILLER12
HOLDDATE = FILLER8
 KEEP = FILLER1
---
KEEP retains the session after successful processing if its value is set to 'X'. A session that is kept remains in the input/output queue until an administrator deletes it in SM35 transaction.
Sessions that contain errors in transactions are kept even if KEEP is not set.
Default: If not set, then sessions that are successfully processed are deleted. Only the batch input log is kept in SM35 transaction.
Hope this sort out your query.
PS If the answer solves your query, plz close the thread by rewarding points to each reply.

WHAT IS THE USE OF COPY/MATCH OPTION IN BUISNESS CONTENT

WHAT IS THE USE OF COPY/MATCH OPTION IN BUISNESS CONTENT GIVE DETAILS

Hi,
Match (X) or Copy
If the SAP delivery version and the active version can be matched, a checkbox is displayed in this column.
With the most important object types, the active version and the SAP delivery version can be matched.
From a technical point of view, the SAP delivery version (D version) is matched with the M version. As in most cases the M version is identical to the active version (A version) in a customer system, this is referred to as a match between the D and A versions for reasons of simplification.
When a match is performed, particular properties of the object are compared in the A version and the D version. First it has to be decided whether these properties can be matched automatically or whether this has to be done manually. A match can be performed automatically for properties if you can be sure that the object is to be used in the same way as before it was transferred from Business Content. When performing matches manually you have to decide whether the characteristics of a property from the active version are to be retained, or whether the characteristics are to be transferred from the delivery version.
Example of an automatic match
Additional customer-specific attributes have been added to an InfoObject in the A version. In the D version, two additional attributes have been delivered by SAP that do not contain the customer-specific attributes. In order to be able to use the additional attributes, the delivery version has to be installed from Business Content again. At the same time, the customer-specific attributes are to be retained. In this case, you have to set the indicator (X) in the checkbox. After installing the Business Content, the additional attributes are available and the customer-specific enhancements have been retained automatically. However, if you have not checked the match field, the customer-specific enhancements in the A version are lost.
Example of a manual match
An InfoObject has a different text in the A version than in the D version. In this case the two versions have to be matched manually. When Business Content is installed, a details screen appears which asks you to specify whether the text should be transferred from the active version or from the D version.
The Match indicator is set as default in order to prevent the customer version being unintentionally overwritten. If the Content of the SAP delivery version is to be matched to the active version, you have to set the Install indicator separately.
The active version is overwritten with the delivery version if
¡        the match indicator is not set and
¡        the install indicator is set.
In other words, the delivery version is copied to the active version.
If the Install indicator is not set, the object is not copied or matched. In this case, the Match indicator has no effect.
In the context menu, two options are available:
                            a.      Merge All Below
The object in the selected hierarchy level and all objects in the lower levels of the hierarchy are selected as to Match.
                            b.      Copy All Below
The Match indicators are removed for the object in the selected hierarchy level and all objects in the lower levels of the hierarchy. If the Install indicator is also set, these objects are copied from the delivery version to the active version.
The most important properties which are taken into account when versions are matched are now listed.
When referring to InfoObjects it is important to differentiate between:
§         Characteristics
§         Time characteristics
§         Key figures and
§         Units
Valid for All InfoObjects Named Above:
Properties Matched Automatically:
Properties Matched Manually:
·        Texts
·        Description
If texts/descriptions in the delivery version do not yet exist in the active version, they are transferred.
·        Attribute only (flag)
·        Short and long text (description)
·        Time dependency of attributes
·        Transfer routine
Valid for Characteristics
Properties Matched Automatically:
Properties Matched Manually:
·        Compounding
New InfoObjects are included in compounding
·        Referenced characteristic
Reference characteristics are transferred automatically. A warning is issued.
·        Attributes / navigation attributes
New attributes are included.
If an attribute is added by the customer, the settings for this attribute are transferred (for example, F4 sequence).
·        Application components
If the entry for the active version is initial, the delivery version is used.
·        BEx display
·        Characteristic constants
·        Default member
·        Authorizations (flag and field)
·        Selection (CHASEL)
·        InfoObject is document attribute
·        Data type
·        Length
·        Output length
·        Conversion routines
·        Lower case allowed (flag)
·        Contains master data (flag)
·        Master data is authorization relevant (flag)
·        Export DataSource (Flag)
·        F4 query design
·        F4 query runtime
·        Check ODS object
·        Contains text tables (flag)
·        Texts are language-dependent (flag)
·        Short, medium and long texts exist (each with flag)
·        Default currency
·        GIS attribute
·        Hierarchies exist (flag)
Valid for Key Figures
Properties Matched Automatically:
Properties Matched Manually:
·        Type of key figure
·        Fixed unit
·        Fixed currency
·        Aggregation
·        Exception aggregation
Valid for Units
Properties Matched Automatically:
Properties Matched Manually:
·        See the table above (Valid for Characteristics), if these properties are also relevant for the units.
When referring to InfoProviders it is important to differentiate between:
¡        MultiProviders
¡        InfoCubes
¡        ODS Objects and
¡        InfoObjects
InfoObjects are discussed above (see the first table Valid for All Objects Named Above).
Valid for All InfoProviders Named Above:
Properties Matched Automatically:
Properties Matched Manually:
·        New InfoObjects
If InfoObjects in the delivery version do not yet exist in the active version, they are transferred.
·        Manual matching is not necessary.
Valid for MultiProviders
Properties Matched Automatically:
Properties Matched Manually:
·        New InfoProviders
If InfoProviders in the delivery version do not yet exist in the active version, they are transferred.
·        Manual matching is not necessary.
Valid for InfoCubes
Properties Matched Automatically:
Properties Matched Manually:
·        New dimensions
If dimensions in the delivery version do not yet exist in the active version, they are transferred.
·        Manual matching is not necessary.
With the InfoObject catalog object type, InfoObjects that are assigned to a catalog in the delivery version are transferred to the active version automatically. Manual matching is not necessary.
With the transfer rule object type, those objects that exist in the delivery version but are not yet contained in the active version (for example, additional attributes) are added automatically when the match is performed. Manual matching is not necessary.
With the process chain object type, those objects that exist in the delivery version but are not yet contained in the active version (for example, additional objects in the process chain) are added automatically when the match is performed. Manual matching is not necessary.
·        Active Version Available
In this column, the following display options are available:
¡        : The object is available in an active version. You decide whether you want to retain this version or reinstall the latest version of the object.
¡        Date symbol: The object is already available in an active version. However, the active version belongs to an older Content release. SAP recommends that you install the latest version.
¡        Gray symbol: An activated version of the object is available in the system. However, the object status is inactive. If an object version is activated, this indicates that all metadata for the object can be created successfully. The inactive object status indicates that the processed object is inconsistent and cannot currently be used for processing data. Transfer the object again from the SAP delivery version (D version). If this is not enough to change the object status from inactive to active the object has to be postprocessed. You find notes on postprocessing in the activation log.
Postprocessing: An inactive object status may also occur for an InfoObject if changes are made to the structure at field level. Postprocessing the object involves converting the relevant tables in accordance with the activation log.
¡        No indicator: The object is not available in an active version.
7. Make Settings in the Selection List and Install.
Make the required settings in the Install selection list:
Installation Type
Installation Type
Information
Simulate installation
The system runs a test to see whether any errors are likely to occur during the installation. However, not all errors that may occur can be identified during simulation: Some error messages can only be generated when a real A version (and not just a simulation) is available in the system. You should, therefore, only use the simulation function as a rough guide to help you identify and remove basic errors.
Install
The selected objects are installed immediately.
Install in background
The selected objects are installed in the background.
Install and transport
The selected objects are installed immediately and then written to a transport request.
SAP recommends you use the Install in background option because installing a large number of objects can take a long time. Modifying objects that are already active can take an especially long time to complete. Make sure that when you install objects in the background that the versions are not matched. It is always the delivery versions that are installed. These are not matched with any available customer versions.

What is the use of for all entries in select statement

what is the use of for all entries in select statement

hi,
FOR ALL ENTRIES is an effective way of doing away with using JOIN on two tables.
You can check the below code -
SELECT BUKRS BELNR GJAHR AUGDT
FROM BSEG
INTO TABLE I_BSEG
WHERE BUKRS = ....
SELECT BUKRS BELNR BLART BLDAT
FROM BKPF
INTO TABLE I_BKPF
FOR ALL ENTRIES IN I_BSEG
WHERE BUKRS = I_BSEG-BUKRS
AND BELNR = I_BSEG-BELNR
AND BLDAT IN SO_BLDAT.
*******************************8
look another example
what is the use of FOR ALL ENTRIES
1. INNER JOIN
DBTAB1 <----
> DBTAB2
It is used to JOIN two DATABASE tables
having some COMMON fields.
2. Whereas
For All Entries,
DBTAB1 <----
> ITAB1
is not at all related to two DATABASE tables.
It is related to INTERNAL table.
3. If we want to fetch data
from some DBTABLE1
but we want to fetch
for only some records
which are contained in some internal table,
then we use for alll entries.
1. simple example of for all entries.
2. NOTE THAT
In for all entries,
it is NOT necessary to use TWO DBTABLES.
(as against JOIN)
3. use this program (just copy paste)
it will fetch data
from T001
FOR ONLY TWO COMPANIES (as mentioned in itab)
4
REPORT abc.
DATA : BEGIN OF itab OCCURS 0,
bukrs LIKE t001-bukrs,
END OF itab.
DATA : t001 LIKE TABLE OF t001 WITH HEADER LINE.
itab-bukrs = '1000'.
APPEND itab.
itab-bukrs = '1100'.
APPEND itab.
SELECT * FROM t001
INTO TABLE t001
FOR ALL ENTRIES IN itab
WHERE bukrs = itab-bukrs.
LOOP AT t001.
WRITE :/ t001-bukrs.
ENDLOOP.

What is the Use of u0093Over write CC Areau0094 In the Assign'of C.Code to CC area

Dear GURUs
In the Assignment of Company code to Credit Control area what is the use and meaning of Over write Credit control Area field. Kindly guide me with an example.
When I checked in F1 it is saying that
"Indicator: Can credit control area be overwritten?
Use
If you set this indicator, you can overwrite the credit control area defaulted from the company code's global data.
This applies only to document posting.
When making changes to documents, you cannot change the credit control area."
I did nt understand what does it mean.
Regards,
Bhanu

Hi Bhanu,
There is a option to enter the Credit control area in the company code global parameters(OBY6).When you do this,when ever you did not enter a credit control area or the system could not determine one, the cerdit control area is defaulted from the OBY6 screen.
Now if you want to overwrite this defaulted value,you can check box this.
Hope im clear

What is the use of Payroll Identifier

Dear Freinds,
I would like to know what is the use of payroll Identified in infotype 0267. When i read in the documentationt the the payroll identier "distinguish between different off-cycle payroll runs created on the same day". so I have to tried created two different off-cycle payroll records in the infoytpe 0267 through PA30 on the payment date 01012009 with amount 200 INR , so i have created first record with payroll indicator as 1, but again with the same payment date 01012009 when iam trying to create on more record with amount 300 INR with payroll indicator as 2, found that first record getting overwritten the second record.. There byonly one record exists in overview.
Could any one please let me know how can i have two records . So i would like to know what is the significance of the payroll identifier.
regards
divya

Hi,
" found that first record getting overwritten the second record"
I guess your problem is caused by incorrect manipulation.
When you run payroll driver for off-cycle payroll run, there are 3 blanks after < Off-cycle payroll > line.,the 2nd blank is for payroll ID. Specify it with payroll ID that you entered in IT0267. Thus, you will find there is no overwritten any more.

What is the use of additon in up to 1 rows in SELECT statement

Hi All,
         What is the use of up to 1 rows in select statement.
for example
SELECT kostl
      FROM pa0001
      INTO y_lv_kostl UP TO 1 ROWS
      WHERE pernr EQ pernr
      AND endda GE sy-datum.
    ENDSELECT.
I'm unable to get in wat situations we hav to add up to 1 rows
please help me out...
Thanks,
santosh.

Hi,
Use "select up to 1 rows" only if you are sure that all the records returned will have the same value for the field(s) you are interested in. If not, you will be reading only the first record which matches the criteria, but may be the second or the third record has the value you are looking for.
The System test result showed that the variant Single * takes less time than Up to 1 rows as there is an additional level for COUNT STOP KEY for SELECT ENDSELECT UP TO 1 ROWS.
The 'SELECT .... UP TO 1 ROWS' statement is subtly different. The database selects all of the relevant records that are defined by the WHERE clause, applies any aggregate, ordering or grouping functions to them and then returns the first record of the result set.

What is the use of Alternative Calculation Type =2 and 4

Dear Friends
In pricing procedure in gross value, Net value for Item and Net value has Alternative calucation type is 2.
What is the use of it?
Without using it these value line are also fetching net value then what is the work of it. Please give me detail information with its effects in pricing condition tab page in sales document.
Thanking You
Arun

Arun biswal,
Correct Biswal. We have at varoius stages within Pricing procedure the "net value" which is calculated. Not only the alternative calculation type "2" is used if you notice carefully they are stored as subtotals at various levels.
For Ex Gross Value --> Subtotal =1 --> Calc type = 2
similarly for Net value for Item --> Subtotal =2 --> Calc type = 2
Net value 2 --> Subtotal =3 --> Calc type = 2
See, these are used to calculate the net value at various levels in pricing. The calculation Type has got a set of routines that will facilitate us in pricing. SAP has provided certain clauclated formulas or routines to facilitate us during calculation within pricing . Here the "2" is used for calculation without tax and store it as subtotal and display it or use it for further calculations.
We can use this "netvalue" amount for further calculations. It is used for clarity purpose when you issue a statement to customer. (like Confirmation order) at various levels like discount amt involved, Freight involved, Rebate amount invloved.....
Even without this Calc type or using sub total u can proceed....
Finally we have TOTAL --> Subtotal =A --> Calc type = 4
In the above line we have Calc type as 4, which means when you use TAX this calc type is used .
Routines are used to facilitate your process....
