What is the use of Match(X) or Copy in Business Content Collected Obj..?

Hi All,
In Business Content, After doing Drog nd Drop on Collected Objects, There, after Install Icon(I) we will find <u><i><b>Match(X) or Copy (M)</b></i></u> ......
Can anybody tell me what is mean by it and why and where do we use it.....?
Please Reply me.......

Hi Kiran,
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.
hope this helps.

    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 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 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....

  • What is the use of Withholding tax identification number field?

    Hello SAP Experts,
    I posted this question earlier but had to close because of no replies from anybody. Posting it again to see if I am lucky to get some answer this time.
    Can someone tell what is the use of field Withholding Tax Identification Number? Does it help with the reporting? Where does it get populated on the report if given at vendor or master record or within the withholding tax customization for company code? What is the difference between creating it in the customization for withholding tax information for company code and vendor/customer master record?
    As per SAP:  Withholding tax identification number
    This is a number issued by the tax authorities per withholding tax type.
    This number must be specified in Customizing either:
    (a) As part of the withholding tax information defined for the company code, or
    (b) As part of the withholding tax information defined in the customer or vendor master record.

    Hi Pete,
    The only thing that I could check is the content used in US:
    See content of this field for US:
    LFA1-STCD1      Social security number
    LFA1-STCD2      Employer identification number
    LFBW-WT_WTSTCD  Withholding tax identification number for WT Type
    In order to populate it, please kindly check the following:
    The reason why you cannot fill in the field WT_WTSTCD in transaction
    Fk02 however you can do it in XK02 (Change vendor centrally) can be due
    to wrong customizing of the field status group.
    Kindly check the following:
    SPRO->
    Finantial accounting -> Accounts receivable and accounts payable ->
    Define screen layout per activity (vendors) -> Change Vendor(Accounting)
    Company code data -> W/holding tax data, w/h tax 2 ->
    FIELD Withholding tax code,w/h tax 2 will be probably just available to
    display. Please, change it to optional entry.
    I hope I could be of assistance.

  • What is the use of HTTPS 8181 port

    Hi,
    I am wondering what is the use of the port 8181 on the EE5 application server.
    the second question. Why the application server open so many port on the same local machine. I agree that for security raison it is a good idea. But does application serveur use tcp connection to communicate between the server thread ?
    So it is possible to add a thread in the serveur application to process some internal work. And of course it is possible to include this new thread in the communication process of the server ?
    Can we have the map of all the tcp trhead use by the server application.
    Regards
    Herve Terrolle.

    Your app has to run as root to listen on ports up to 1024,
    also, some other app (apache?) may already be listening on port 443.
    AFAICT port 8181 is just arbitrarily chosen, it might as well have been port 4430, or any other free port above 1024.

    End Routine
    An end routine is a routine with a table in the target structure format as input and output parameters. You can use an end routine to postprocess data after transformation on a package-by-package basis. For example, you can delete records that are not to be updated, or perform data checks.
    If the target of the transformation is a DataStore object, key figures are updated by default with the aggregation behavior Overwrite (MOVE). You have to use a dummy rule to override this.
    hope this helps.

    Hi Srini,
    just read the documentation (although the current status on SAP Help Portal isn't really up-to-date):
    1. [Entry point|http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw70ehp1/helpdata/en/cc/85414842c8470bb19b53038c4b5259/frameset.htm]

    W/r to "Application Component" etc., docu on Help Portal is definitely not sufficient. Here, the following applies:
    An application offers attributes for the application component and the software component. The application component and software component have to be the same as defined for the development package. Application and software component are automatically derived from the development package if they are not set explicitly.
    For the definition of the development package, application component, and software component, we recommend that you choose the same values that are in effect for the software solution that you want to enhance by a new BRFplus application. This simplifies all activities related to the software infrastructure, especially transports.
