Why we are using cluster tables mainly HR

can any plz tell me why we are using cluster tables mainly HR???

Nice question -
Am making my guess based on whatever little I know;
PCLn are <i>file</i> systems and not a traditional (RDBMS) table system. Each File may contain one or more data clusters. SAP Defines data clusters thus -
<i>A data cluster is a grouping of several data objects. Elementary fields, field strings and internal tables can be grouped in a data cluster</i>.
<i>Example</i>:<i>Clusters B1 and B2 in files PCL1 and PCL2 are relevant to time evaluation, as is cluster PS, which stores the generated schema</i>.
The reason why file system of data storage is used instead of DB Table system may be for the purpose of storing voluminous data (Payroll and time) and ease of retrieval during processing (RDBMS may hv tough time in this). Also probably because of SAP's origin from Mainframe.
Why data clusters are used -? Probably data clusters are an offshoot (or part) of File system
Pls feel free to contradict the above. Actually DB experts can throw more light on this..

Chandra

  • In BAPI's why the structures are used in table parameters?

    Hello sir,
    what is BAPI sir? In BAPI's why the structures are used in table parameters?  table parameters they are using structures but not using any customized tables ? 
    regards
    rachu.

    Hello Rachu
    BAPIs provide RFC-enabled interfaces to SAP business objects (e.g. like customer, sales order, purchase order, etc.).
    A BAPI does basically the same like you would need to do calling the corresponding transaction (e.g. BAPI_SALESORDER_CREATE -> VA01).
    Since they are RFC-enabled they can be called from external systems.
    BAPIs represent an external interface for the outside world. Very often you will find within the BAPI that there is a mapping done to the (SAP-)internal structures at the beginning of the coding and vice versa at the end of the coding. Thus, you will (almost) never find any DB table name used as type of a BAPI TABLES parameter.

  • Why we are using FILLPV and GENTPB operations?

    Hi Experts,
    Please Explain Why we are using "FILLPV0" ,"FILLPV1","FILLPVT","FILLPV6'.
    and 'GENTPB 0", "GENTPB * ", "GENTPB 01R", "GENTPE B".
    I have a scenorio,
    hrs?16
    -<
    hrs=dxxxx
    hrs-16

    I confusing about what is "L"
    and where it stored?.
    why the need we fill procesing type L when =,> ?
    by using that Fillpv what is the further process.?
    where XXXX is a time type which have 17.
    YYYY is also timetype which stores 1.
    so my question is when we add that 1 to timetype yyyy what is the need to call "GENTPB L"
    and what process will done when we cal that "gentpb l"
    and when xxxx = 16
    we are filling "FILLPV L"
    L is assigned with some wagetype 4xxx.
    what process is done when when we use this "FILLPV L' operation.
    Thanks in Advance,

    Hi Harish,
    Thanks for your reply,
    so
    When we use FILLPVM operation any specific wage type related to overtime  will be populated from table "t510s" ?
    according to your help i assume this rule
    hrs=s
    _hrs?8
    ---<
    ---hrs=s
    ---adddbxxxx
    ---=
    hrs=s
    adddbxxxx
       |--->
            |---hrs=s

            |---gentpe   m
            |---adddbyyyy
            |---fillpvm
        here that 2 hours will split into overtime and stored into yyyy timetype.?
    and  that fillpvm will cal the specific wagetype related to overtime?
    please let me know if i am wrong. 
    Thankyou,
    Mahesh.

  • How to find all oaf pages that are using a table in their VOs

    Hello everyone,
    I need to findout all the View Objects and Entity Objects that are using a table lets say A. Is there a smart way to find out all the VOs and EO's that are using my table?
    Thanks
    Sunny

    Technically there would be only one EO for your table (if its Oracle code). VOs contain queries and there might be many which refer the table.
    One option I can think of is doing a table name search in the various (EO and VO) directories on JAVATOP. Its the XML (99% cases) that would have the queries. Rest 1% having dynamic VOs, it would be difficult to determine.

    Below are a few examples that demonstrate these hierarchyid data type methods.  See the hierarchyid reference in the SQL Server Books Online for more examples of these and other methods (http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb677193.aspx).
    --return a child of this node ('/1/')
    SELECT CAST('/' AS hierarchyid).GetDescendant(NULL, NULL).ToString();
    --returns a child of this node greater than child node '/1/' ('/2/')
    SELECT CAST('/' AS hierarchyid).GetDescendant(CAST('/1/' AS hierarchyid), NULL).ToString();
    --returns a child of this node less than chold node '/1/' ('/0/')
    SELECT CAST('/' AS hierarchyid).GetDescendant(NULL, CAST('/1/' AS hierarchyid)).ToString();

    Why we are using servlet as a controller instead of Jsp?Basically JSPs are suited to do just one thing, to generate HTML with variable content. You can put Java code in there too, but it's not a good place for it. Messy to validate, messy to debug. In fact, with tag libraries like JSTL, actual Java code is rare in professionally written JSPs.
    A controller does the bit that comes before you've decided what kind of response the user is going to get, typically it may invoke one of several JSPs according to validation etc.. There's a lot of logic, a lot of parsing parameters and so on. Much cleaner to do this from a Java class like a Servlet.
    Judging by this forum quite a lot of people come to JSPs from ASP or PHP and don't want to bother with actually writing Java classes. That's never going to be much good.

    where ht = ht_1
    order by upper(true_name)
    Thanks in advance...

    Because one of your developers or DBAs thought it would be neat to use an undocumented hint.Possibly, although Oracle support have recommended us use hints (such as NO_CONNECT_BY_FILTERING) on several occasions to work around bugs in CONNECT BY queries.
    I also recall a specific recommendation to consider the NO_FILTERING hint in the Oracle error messages documentation when running out of temporary space in CONNECT BY queries, I'll see if I can find the link.
    Not that I support the use of hints in production of course, just that there are some mitigating circumstances around CONNECT BY behaviour.

  • Why we are using SID in DSO when there we are using star schema in BI

    can anyone answer me why we are using SID in DSO also, i mean what is the need of SID in DSO?

    The reason basically is that the entire query api in BW is based on SIDs
    If you look at a sql of a query that is generated when you run a report you can see this
    Example..
    If you put a selection of period = 02.2009
    In the SQL you will not see "where period = 02.2009" you will see "where sid.period = '000100001010" or something like that
    The whole query  is like this for Infoproviders of DSOs and Infocubes
    Yes it is annoying - but that't  the way it is..
    So if you have a DSO you wish to report on you need the SID for the SQL to fire..!
    On an operational daya to day side - if my cubes are 1:1 granularity with my DSOs then I prefer to put SID activation on the DSOs - two reasons
    1. so the cube load is quicker because the SID generation has already taken place (is this important? never sure but I always do it)
    2. future use of the DSO as a reporting object (this was before the days of the operational store as part of a LSA structure)

    Hello,

    Also to provide security and trust your publisher. If there is no certificates with form then you might face problem with publish popup. To verify all publishers for your template, just open any infopath form-->select options from file menu-->then
    click trust center-->trust center settings. You should see all certificates which are allowed.

  • Why we are using init() in servlet

    why we are using init() in servlet
    Instead of doing in init() we can do that things in Constructor

    Hi
    In order ti be clear. Do you remeber the applet lfe cycle ?. An applet run inside a browser and a servelts runs inside a servlet container, so is the servelt container who instatiate a servlet, init and destroy, and while servlet is alive calls doService inside a thread.
    The mechanism to fill some parameters or other task is by writing the init(ServletConfig) method inherited from GenericServlet.
    To clear parameters or other clearing stuff you can use the destroy method, inherited from GenericServlet
    Hope this helps
