Difference between ECC and NW and MySAP series and MyERP2005 ..
How they are interrelated?
ECC has more components installed than NW.
ECC 5.0 is just the core ERP system. It has been changed from R/3 to ECC. It runs on top of the WebAS 6.40 which is a component of the netweaver platform. Just remember that ECC 5.0 is the same as the ERP system R/3, its just been renamed and improved.
SAP is an ERP (Enterprise Resource Planning) module, ECC is the version of SAP, like 4.6, 4.6c and 4.7 in that series new version is ECC-6. Its known as Enterprise core component.So you can say the sequence is:
SAP R/3 4.6C
SAP R/3 Enterprise 4.7
SAP ECC 5.0
SAP ECC 6.0
ECC stands for Enterprise Resource Planning Central Component.This is similar to R/3.The name of this component has been evolved, but the essential function of system component has not changed much.This component has its own several sub-modules such as MM (Material Management), SD (Sales Distributions), FI/CO (Financial and Costing and Billing), PM (Plant Maintenance/Production Planning), WM (Warehouse Management) and HR (Human Resource Management). It has Workbench environment where staff can develop customized program using ABAP programming and database tables to support companies' own internal business processing. Each sub modules support many screens/transactions and reporting transactions to easily keep track of inventory, orders, movement of
goods. Both Business customers or traditional IT staff will group together to design and develop various business processes. ECC (Enterprise Central Component) is recent name for R/3 or ERD. Even huge company can be sufficiently supported by this one component.
NW is basically an oceshtra of various components.There is a base WEB AS on top of which all other components like EP,XI,BI,MDM etc sits.There are different combinations of OS and database on which you can install NW.
