Question { Tech Mahindra, 59902 }

what is the difference between user-exit & customer-exit?

Answer

1.
USER EXITS are FORMS and are called by SAP standard programs
using PERFORM.

CUSTOMER EXITS are FUNCTIONS so they are called using CALL
FUNCTION (or more exactly CALL CUSTOMER FUNCTION).

2.
Inside the form (user exit) you can read and change almost
any global data from host program.
Inside a function (customer exit) you can only acces your
import/export/changing/tables parameters.

3.

User exits are more flexible because you have more
information to use in your code but on the other hand , it
is very easy to manipulate erroneously global data and lead
the standard program to a dump or even to make database
inconsistent.
Customer exits are more restrictive but you are sure any
change you can make to any parameters will never lead to
inconsistency

4.

User-exit doesn’t have any classification.
In customer-exit we have function-module exit , screen exit
, menu exit.

5.
User exits are Basically designed For SD module.
Costomer exits Are available for MM,SD,FI,HR…..Basically
designed for all modules.

What are control commands in Scripts?

Answer

The purpose of these is to allow control of the output
formatting. These commands are not interpreted by the
SAPscript editor, but are passed through to the SAPscript
Composer for processing. The Composer is the program that
converts text from the form displayed in the editor to the
form used for printing. This includes, for example, line and
page formatting, the replacement of symbols with their
current values and the formatting of text according to the
paragraph and character formats specified.

Question { CTS, 14596 }

what is two domain level concept in abap

Answer

Table fields are defined in SAP R/3 by data elements and
domains. This is a key difference between SAP R/3 and many
other systems.
In other systems, a field is defined only by its type
(i.e., character, numeric) and length. These characteristics
are assigned directly to each field.

In SAP R/3, a field is defined by being assigned to a data
element, which is in turn assigned to a domain. These
assignments determine the field’s type and length in
addition to other characteristics.

SAP R/3 refers to this method of field definition as the
Two-Level Domain Concept
