When moving material from Uml-zone, we -zone etc.

When moving material from UML-zone, We-zone, etc. Can you get the system to generate individual SU#'s.
I have 30 items of XYZ, I want to move all 30 at one time and generate 30 individual SU#'s......Is there a way?

Yes, this is possible and standard
If you post a material document to place the stock into the interum storage type try LT06 and use the document as a refrence, you will need to maintain the LE quantity in your material masters and the system will automaticaly propose the correct number of SU when you click "palletization".
if you do not maintain the LE you can enter the qty as (for example) 60 X 3000EA / 1 x 2500EA (or whatever unit of measure you use)
This is very standard for WM and easy to do once the configuration is in place and you learn the transactions.
LT06-LT12
Edit: if this doesn't fit for your needs please provide more info about the transactions you currently use to put the stock into the WE-zone and how you are currently moving it out

Chart Features get Distorted when converting a Powerpoint to PDF

When converting a powerpoint file to PDF using Adobe createPDF online, chart titles and axis that were properly formatted in powerpoint get distorted when the file is converted to pdf. Specifically, the chart titles get moved over / cut off and scales on the axis disappear. The charts, however, are pictures, and were not created in a microsoft program. Any idea why this is happening or how to fix it?
Thanks

That an image of a chart was exported is indicative of the "chart" object in the PDF being an image.
And, that is consistent with what must times, for most PPT "chart" input is -- graphic objects -- which, when sent out to PDF don't change from that (how would they eh?).
Result - an image / graphic object in the PDF.
To get the 'dynamic' chart that updates in Powerpoint when the data for the chart is changed you'd re-master in an appropriate application and OLE it into the Powerpoint file.
But that's the good stuff of Microsoft and discussed over in MS web space.
Be well...

Yes. They don't make any sense to me either. Are we supposed to be looking at a blank dark gray rectangle, or has the upload process failed the OP ?

How can I preserve the date and time of photos when moving them from iPhone to iPhoto and then to other folders on my computer?

In the past I’ve had no problem moving photos from my iPhone 4 into various folders on my computer while retaining their original date and time. I would import into iPhoto, then drag the photos from iPhoto into other folders via the Finder or Adobe Bridge (which is my principal image organizer). The original date and time of the photo would always travel with the jpeg into iPhoto and then into other folders. However, sometime during a recent session transferring photos in this way, the dates of the photos started to change at the point when I copied them out of iPhoto. Within iPhoto itself, the various original dates of the photos are retained. But in Finder and Bridge, copies of those same photos all carry the same (worthless) date: the date and time that they were imported from my iPhone. I can’t figure out what would have changed on my Mac to make it start re-dating my photos. I was happily dragging and dropping photos, and suddently I started to lose the original dates. Did I inadvertently change some settings? (I am running OS 10.6.8 and using iPhoto 8.)

(I use iPhoto only to import from my iPhone; I organize all my images, including thousands of RAW files, in folders on a big external drive.)
Why are you using iPhoto at all? use image capture or drag and drop the photos
The problem is that the files I am copying are getting stripped of the EXIF metadata
eliminating iPhoto from your work flow will eliminate one oppertunity to have this happen For photos in iPhoto it is best to export them rather than drag an drop them - this assures your EXIF and IPTC data is correct and uptodate
Why would I be able, over many years, to retain EXIF metadata in photos imported from an iPhone--then one day find that the same workflow strips such photos of EXIF data?
Because exporting is the supported way to "export" photos - I never drag and drop photos out of iPhoto and I never use thrid party programs on the photos in the iPhoto library - try exporting as suggested above and see if that is the solution

JList run time errors when removing items from list

Bridge Freezes when Show Items From Sub Folders

Hi all. I am trying to create a portfolio of past works. Using Adobe Bridge and Show Items From Sub Folders makes it easy to go through thousands of files. One major problem though; Bridge is not stable. When I try to view a folder with thousands of files Bridge will freeze and I have to force quite.
I am running a Mac Pro with Adobe Design CS4 Premium installed. I have 16gb of Ram and have played around with Bridge's preferences and deleted Bridges preference files. I also tried all the options list on Adobe's check list.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Regards
Stephen Thompson

Bridge is not stable. When I try to view a folder with thousands of files Bridge will freeze and I have to force quite.
As a matter of fact, bridge CS4 is the most stable version of bridge, and although still not perfect yo should be able to view the folder in flat view.
It only takes a lot of time to cache if you have not done before. If cache does not start you first should try to purge cache for folder using the tools menu.
If Bridge keeps freezing first thing to try is to restart holding down option key and choose reset preferences. Set prefs again to your own wishes and try again.
You can also try to first cache the folder using the tools menu. In the folderpanel select the main folder you want to view its contents and go to the tools menu / cache and this time select build and export cache.
Depending on the amount and size of files it takes some time. Then try again.
It is able to work, as it does on my system. I have also a main folder that contains around 5000 files organized in stacks and works as it should

Computer freezes when moving files from USB, or to another partitioned HD

Hello, i've been moving files from two USB's to my Macintosh HD, and when I do that, the computer kinda freezes up, i can move the cursor, but not kinda click anywhere, and then a minute after or something, it gets normal again, but the transfer is going horribly slow. this happens when i move from Macintosh HD, to Macintosh HD 2 (a partitioned one). the files are 2 gb each USB. which means im transferring 4 gb at the time.

I have 6 folders on my hard drive. These folders were created by downloading a bunch of rar files, then extracting them each to their own folder. I have not touched the permissions, so they should be the default of me having read/write and everyone else having read (correct me if i'm wrong).
Using two Finder windows, I drag and drop the six folders from one hard drive to another, and hold down the Apple key so that it moves instead of copies. I let go and it starts copying the files (since there is no "move", but rather a "copy and then delete").
I would recommend you don't use this method to move a lot of files between drives. it's much safer first to copy and if the copy is successful to delete the original afterward. there was a data loss bug in OS X a while back that wold sometimes lead to total loss on both the source and the target when doing this.
this bug is supposed to be long fixed but still...
How is the hard drive you are moving the files to formatted? what yo describe sometimes happens when moving a lot of stuff to or from FAT formatted drives. also, repair both drives in disk utility. repair disk, not permissions.

Moving items from sub-folder to inbox are disappearing

Hello everyone,
We have exchange 2010 and we are having issue when user move item from sub-folder to inbox then the item just disappears. I have tested this at-least 3 mailboxes.
If i do this in outlook then it disappears right away. if i do this in OWA then it disappears in 10 seconds. Sometimes it shows up in deleted folder but most of the time it doesn't but it always shows up in "recover deleted item" in outlook.
Please advise how to find what's going on. thanks

I don't think it is a Managed Folder Mailbox Policy which is doing this. We have almost ruled out that the issue is specific to Client but not Server. If you want to check the Managed Folder Mailbox Policy for a mailbox run the command below:
Get-Mailbox -ResultSize Unlimited -Server ServerName |?{$_.ManagedFolderMailboxPolicy -ne $Null}
The above command will help us get all the mailboxes where there is a ManagedFolderMailboxPolicy Applied
To Get the ManagedFolderMailboxPolicy for a Specific Mailbox Run the command below:
Get-Mailbox MailboxName | Fl Name,DisplayName,ManagedFolderMailboxPolicy
If Deleting the outlook profile/ost fixed the issue, then it might have been most likely an issue with corrupted outlook rule. if you want to do it for all the mailboxes across org, i would suggest you force that via group policy using a PRF File.

Illustrator Files get Distorted when Distilled into PDFs

I haven't been able to find anything like this in the discussions so I will start one. The production folks are using CS3 on Leopard Macs. I am using Tiger and can still reproduce the problem, so I don't think it is the OS.
Here's what happens:
Certain .ai files placed in InDesign become distorted when the user makes a PDF either by using Acrobat Distiller or through our DALiM TWiST server. The distortion does not happen if they export to PDF, but they cannot do that since they must use the TWiST system to preflight their files and create the PDFs. The problem is likely related to the postscript stage of both of these methods of making PDFs. It does not happen to all .ai files that we use. Just some of them. It seems to be random, but with newer (CS3-created) Illustrator files as opposed to CS2 or earlier files. The current workaround is to just save the files as Illustrator eps and then they have no problem, but we are trying to get away from always using eps files.
Has anyone ever had anything like this happen?
Thanks,
Laura K.

Wow, you guys are great. Very helpful. The users who have reported this issue have already discovered the workaround of embedding the problem files. That does work. Their problem is that they don't know ahead of time which .ai files will do this. I suppose they could just embed all .ai files as they use them, but one user reports that the embedded files don't "stay" embedded. They use a droplet that was created for them where they just drop a job to be printed onto it and it will go through the TWiST workflow. It is a highly customized workflow, and we plan to have the engineer come back in and do some tweaking eventually. I think there is something in the droplet that can be altered so embedded .ai files will stay embedded. I suspect that is probably easy if you know what you are doing. :-)
But, meanwhile I was just wondering if there was maybe something we could do at the .ai file creation end to prevent the distortion from happening int he first place. The bad part is that it does not happen to all .ai files in our library, just a few of them. The same user reported a couple of years ago when we switched to InDesign that she had problems with .pdf files placed into InDesign printing properly and I think this is related to that.
Here are a couple of screenshots to illustrate what happens as far as the distortion. I have used one of our company's logo files that has been exhibiting the behavior as the example. The first screenshot (InDesignLogos) just shows the logo placed in an InDesign file as it should look. The bottom one has been embedded. The second screenshot (PDFLogos) shows the resulting PDF that was created using DALiM TWiST. Keep in mind that we also get the same result if we make a PDF using Acrobat Distiller. This is why I think it is something happening in the postscript file. I wish we could just export the PDF from InDesign because that takes care of the problem, but it is not an option with the TWiST workflow. The Illustrator file says it was created on Oct 26, 2009, saved as v.13 Created by v.13.02, if that helps.
Thanks for all of your help and good suggestions so far!

Prompted for Password when Moving Item to Trash

Whenever I attempt to send anything from my Startup Disk to the Trash (This problem only happens when moving to the trash from the Startup disk, not with my external hard drive or any USB drives attached) it prompts for my Administrator Username and Password. When I do that, the file then skips the trash and is deleted immediately. Items already in the trash are seemingly unnaffected.
I did some research online, which led me to believe it might be my trashes.db file. I followed some steps to fix this file in the UNIX Terminal, but I can't do that without a SU (SuperUser) account, so I enabled the root account and used that for the repair. However, nothing has changed and I am continuing to see this problem.
I am running OS X Lion, 10.7.2, and it is a 2010 Mac Mini. I am an administrator account and I have access to UNIX sudo commands through the root user set up on my computer. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks to both for your replies.
Eric,
Thanks much for that link and the Apple Token workaround. That did the trick!
Thanks a lot for your help.
Best,
Andre

Populate DB after moving item from right panel to left panel of shuttle

PlD Distorted when multiple Item selected

Hi ,
In our Scenario we want to print Item description,serial no, qty on same page in PLD for multiple Item with single quantity Print Layout is coming without distortion but when multiple item with multiple quantity it goes to next page and some data (Item Description and Qty ) for the last item on First page gets repeat on next page also Borders get distorted in print
So how to fix this issue of data repeating and also how give page border to Print Layout

Just as a note to clarify for all of these posts here.
The real answer is that you can print the serial/batch number right on the main document. You don't need to use the serial number transaction report at all. You can disable it in print preferences (Administration >> System Initialization >> Print Preferences).
In order to print the serial numbers relating to a document you need to use special system variables. Just make a new field and then make it a system variable and use the following variables. They need to be put on the same line as the regular detail info and the data will grow if there are multiple batches or serial numbers so make sure you allow for field adjustments.
490          TEXT     serial number
492          TEXT     batch number
493          TEXT     warehouse code (batch/SN)
494          MONEY (QUANTITY)     quantity (Batch/SN)
495          DATE     admission date (receipt)
496          DATE     date of production set by manufacturer (for Batch/SN)
501          DATE     expiration date (for Batch/SN)
502          TEXT     details (for Batch/SN)
Hopefully this helps.

BI Publisher Report Layout Get Distorted when viewed in different format

Hi Experts,
I am facing issue while running BI Publisher Report.
The Report Layout work fine in one output format (PDF).
But when the same report is generated in different format it get distorted (HTML,EXCEL).
Could any one please let me know how to resolve this issue.
Is there any SR raised for this issue.
Cheers,
Andy

Hi,
I have faced a similar issue, Finally i created a different template for each output type, and tweaked each template through trial and error till the output it provided was what i was looking for in the specified output format, I had a different template for PDF and a different one for HTML. If I used the html optimised template for PDF out, there were all sorts of alignment issues, etc.and vice versa. As for the date format, you can set the parmeter correctly using the word date format properties.
