Hi,

Commonalities:

SAP 4.7 has all the features such as development workbench, transport management system, monitoring, versioning and business object repository of already existing SAP 4.6C.

Web Application Server6.20 of 4.7 includes all the features of SAP Basis of SAP 4.6C.

Differences:

SAP 4.7 has a more structured approach as compared to SAP 4.6C from a technical perspective. It is based on mySAP.com technology, which is actually the Web Application Server 6.2C. This not only includes SAP Basis Technologies with their latest advancements but also the new features of SAP Web AS 6.20.

SAP 4.7 is more structured even from a functional perspective as this version has been developed after functional and infrastructure developments of earlier SAP R/3 4.6C.

In SAP 4.7 the functional and infrastructure developments are made on separate levels. The functional developments are made in the Enterprise Extensions and infrastructure developments are made in the Enterprise Core unlike SAP 4.6C in which both the developments take place within the systems.

SAP in its Web AS has additional enhancements in the form of package concept, global parameterization with business configuration sets, Unicode compliance and accessibility that are not present in 4.6C.

SAP 4.7 Core supports the above-mentioned enhancements that SAP 4.6C does not.

SAP 4.7 unlike 4.6C has Enterprise Extensions that can be separately deployed and have their own releases.

hi dear

From the ABAP perspective.

The WS_* function modules used in 4.6c has become obsolete from 4.7C. All the WS_* FMs have been replaced by GUI_* FMs.

(ii) Concept of Unicode is introduced.

(iii) Few tables have been modified in ECC6.0.

Tables TVARV & TTREX have been replaced by TVARVC & TTREXN respectively.
