Why we need BPM?

I am new to SAP-Netweaver.
What r benefits of using BPM?Plz let me know some scenarios that are possible through BPM only.
What is Business process?.

Hi vijay,
Simple message processing on the Integration Server is stateless. This means that the Integration Server does not know of any connections between various messages.
BPM, on the other hand, describe related processes, which can use the knowledge about messages that have already been processed to further control the process.
As for scenarios that can be done using BPM,
1. Consider a case when you need to say collect ten files and then start processing, you need a BPM
2. Consider a case, when you need to collect info from 2 different SAP systems and then start the processing, again a BPM is needed.
3. consider a case, when you perfrom some validation of your payload, and then on the basis of the validatio need to perform different mappings and neeed to send info to different comm channels etc , a BPM would help.
Performance is a concern with BPM, it is a very important issue to be taken into account.
Hope this info helps,

Bhavesh

Why we need BPM Exactly

Hi All,
Why We Need BPM Exactly in XI .
Please Explain me Clearly & Give me the Answer in the Interview Perspective
Regards
Vamsi

Hi Vamsi,
BPM provides you...."<b>Stateful Integration</b>"....these two words are enough to satisfy any interviewer...:-)
1) Collecting of messages till a certain count
2) Merging messages
3) Splitting messages
4) Processing of error files
5) Parallel Processing etc..
Kindly look at the above examples shared by one of our friend......
Lets take first case...
we want to collect 100 messages and when we have collected 100 messages the only want to proceed...here collection of 100 messages is a state...
Similarly we can make the scenario stateful on the basis of a particular time, time period...etc...
for practical example...plz go through BPM patterns under basis objects...where you can see collect patterns,sync/Async bridge...very beautiful examples...to under the need of BPM...

Why exactly do we need BPM in XI?

Hi,
Why exactly do we need BPM in XI?

Hi Jeba,
BPM in XI is ccBPM - i.e. cross component BPM
It is used to control complex document choreography - e.g. when you need to wait for two different types of messages to arrive and then send out another message of a 3rd type, or when you need to wait for a series of messages to arrive, and combine them into a single message to be sent out.
You don't need it for simple mappings.
Strongly suggest you read the FAQ at the top of the forum and also take a look at http://service.sap.com/bpms to get some background.

Why we need abap XI ?

why we need abap XI with one business scenario?

Hi Narendra,
Good Check this documentation and corresponding links
SAP Exchange Infrastructure
Purpose
SAP Exchange Infrastructure (SAP XI) enables you to implement cross-system processes. It enables you to connect systems from different vendors (non-SAP and SAP) in different versions and implemented in different programming languages (Java, ABAP, and so on) to each other. SAP Exchange Infrastructure is based on an open architecture, uses open standards (in particular those from the XML and Java environments) and offers those services that are essential in a heterogeneous and complex system landscape:
●     Modeling and design of messages, transformations, and cross-component integration processes
●     Configuration options for managing collaborative processes and message flow
●     Runtime for message and process management
●     Adapter Engine for integrating heterogeneous system components
●     Central monitoring for monitoring message flow and processes
SAP XI supports internal company scenarios and cross-company scenarios.

You can't view your back up files at icloud.com.
You can't view your camera roll and you can't view your Photo Stream files at icloud.com.
The icloud back up plan allows you to "restore" your iOS device from the files you backed up at icloud.com.

Sir, your Apple ID can be used as an iCloud account as well. They are both the same thing.

Can you give me some reasons about why I need to buy an iPod touch 5.Although I have the iPhone ,iPod nano, iPad ,MacBook pro,I think the iPod touch 5 is so attractive that I can't help buying it at once.If I have it,what I can do with it,can you tell me?

All I can say is that I REALLY like my Touch 4th gen because I have all sorts of capabilities in a small form: e-mail, web browsing, news, weather, books, magazines, etc. etc. Plus lots and lots of apps out there, including so many free ones. I use the Cloud a lot so it's great to have everything sync'd to my MacBookPro (e-mail, Evernote, Pocket, etc.)
It would be easier, though, to do some of this, especially magazines, on the iPad mini, but, again, I love the small size of the Touch.
As for the 5th gen instead of the 4th, the fifth has Siri and the 3D feature in maps, which are great. And I'm sure it's a lot faster in iOS 6 than the 4th gen. And cool colors!
Don't know if this helps . . .

IF Auto Update Statistics ENABLED in Database Design, Why we need to Update Statistics as a maintenance plan

Hi Experts,
IF Auto Update Statistics ENABLED in Database Design, Why we need to Update Statistics as a maintenance plan for Daily/weekly??
Vinai Kumar Gandla

Hi Vikki,
Many systems rely solely on SQL Server to update statistics automatically(AUTO UPDATE STATISTICS enabled), however, based on my research, large tables, tables with uneven data distributions, tables with ever-increasing keys and tables that have significant
changes in distribution often require manual statistics updates as the following explanation.
1.If a table is very big, then waiting for 20% of rows to change before SQL Server automatically updates the statistics could mean that millions of rows are modified, added or removed before it happens. Depending on the workload patterns and the data,
this could mean the optimizer is choosing a substandard execution plans long before SQL Server reaches the threshold where it invalidates statistics for a table and starts to update them automatically. In such cases, you might consider updating statistics
manually for those tables on a defined schedule (while leaving AUTO UPDATE STATISTICS enabled so that SQL Server continues to maintain statistics for other tables).
2.In cases where you know data distribution in a column is "skewed", it may be necessary to update statistics manually with a full sample, or create a set of filtered statistics in order to generate query plans of good quality. Remember,
however, that sampling with FULLSCAN can be costly for larger tables, and must be done so as not to affect production performance.
3.It is quite common to see an ascending key, such as an IDENTITY or date/time data types, used as the leading column in an index. In such cases, the statistic for the key rarely matches the actual data, unless we update the Statistic manually after
every insert.
So in the case above, we could perform manual statistics updates by
creating a maintenance plan that will run the UPDATE STATISTICS command, and update statistics on a regular schedule. For more information about the process, please refer to the article:
https://www.simple-talk.com/sql/performance/managing-sql-server-statistics/

Why we need ABAP if we can connect With Crystal Reports to SAP R/3

Hi,
I am new to Crystal reports.I came to know that we can connect SAP R/3 by using SAP InfoSet,SAP Table Cluster and Function connectivity in Crystal Reports.So we can generate reports for SAP R/3 database with out need of ABAP.So why we need to go ABAP module.Is there any disadvantages if we dont use ABAP to generate reports or we can use always Crystal Reports to generate Reports for R/3 database?

Hi,
it is correct that you can built a Crystal Report without the need to use ABAP, but we have lots of customers that have invested over the years into ABAP Routines and Crystal REports is able to leverage those as well. So with Crystal Reports you have the choice to leverage existing ABAP Functions as a source for reporting - which might help to leverage complex processing on the backend - or to use InfoSets and tables.

Why I need a code for rent a film and where ist the code? (I dont have a card)

Why I need a code for rent a film and where ist the code? (I dont have a card)

it's unclear what you mean
you say you dont have a card which I guess is you don't have a creditcard
in which case the other option is to pay by a giftcard which include a code which you put in
because to rent you have to pay otherwise it's not really renting

Why we need Java Class in c++ pof Serialization

Hi,
I'm really confused why we need java class which implements PortableObject to support complex objects of c++. If we are not using any queries or entry processors in the application can't we keep the object as serialized byte format and can't we retrieve in from the c++ deserialization.
Please share your thoughts if there's a way if we can skip any Java implementation.
regards,
Sura

feel both are doing same work. Also can anyone tell me what is teh difference between Serilization and Exgternalization.If you need someone to tell you the difference, (a) how can you possibly 'feel both are doing the same work'? and (b) why don't you look it up in the Javadoc?
It's not a secret.

Why we need crm middleware for material replication?

Hi Experts,
Why we need CRM middleware for material replication from ECC to SRM when we can do the vendor replication from ECC to SRM with ABAP report? IS there any technical limitation?
Thanks and regards,
Ranjan

Hello,
Vendors and locations, for example, you can replicate from ECC to SRM using ABAP reports.
However, if you want to replicate the following information, you should use the middleware:
- DNL-CUST-BASIS3 - Basis CRM online
- DNL-CUST-PROD0 - Material number conversions
- DNL-CUST-PROD1 - Product : categories
- DNL_CUST_SRVMAS - Customizing: Service Master
- MATERIAL - R/3 Material Master
- SERVICE_MASTER - R/3 Service Master
Check note 872533. It provides more information.

Ricardo

Why we need doGet() or doPost() instead of service()

Though we have service() method in http servlet why we need to override the doGet() or doPost() of Httpservlets
2services methods are availbale in HttpServlets
1.protected void service( Httpservelt request hreq, HttpServletResponse hresp);
2. Public void service( servletRequest req, servletResponse resp)
Read this and tell how it is(it was collected from documentation of Jguru site)
NOTE: the doGet() and doPost() methods (as well as other HttpServlet methods) are called by the service() method.

The service() method from the Servlet interface is overloaded in HttpServlet to accept HttpServletRequest and HttpServletResponse. If you read the API documentation, you will note that it says the overloaded service() method will dispatch to doGet, doPost, doPut, etc. based on the type of request.
This approach makes sense, because it is bad design to put all your code in one method, or one class for that matter. Usually the doGet/doPost/do<Whatever> methods are themselves dispatcher methods that call the proper classes/methods based on the logical contents of the request.
This is in fact a common pattern in servlet frameworks like Struts and Spring. Said frameworks use a generic DispatcherServlet that redirects requests to the appropriate classes/beans as declared in the configuration files.

Why we need a BDoc

Hi,
Can anyone tell me why we need a BDoc in CRM. As we already have an IDoc concept which is similar to BDoc. Why can't we use the same the IDoc to exchange data with CRM.

Hi kumar,
Bdoc concept is the technology used in CRM Middleware where as Idocs used in ALE and EDI. Middleware is used for data exchange with in CRM system and between CRM and any other sap or non-sap system.
Please also look into the following sap help link which gives the differences between BDoc and IDoc messages
