24P Assets - Importing and remaining 24P...

In the iDVD Studio Pro manual it explains in order to build your project as a 24P asset you have to import it the right way:
"If you import 24 fps MPEG-2 assets, they are handled correctly and remain 24 fps when
you build the project".
It also explains if you import a 24P Quicktime file it is going to be turned into a 29.97 fps when it reaches iDVD Studio Pro.
"If you import 24 fps QuickTime assets, they are encoded as either 29.97 fps or 25 fps
MPEG-2 files, based on your project’s video standard, and are no longer 24 fps when
you build the project".
I have 24P footage that I have spent hundreds of hours on. If I want to capitalize on utilizing the frame rate at the 24fps by the time it reaches iDVD I need to know what setting to use in Compressor. It explains:
"To create a 24 fps MPEG-2 asset, you need to use Compressor (included with
DVD Studio Pro) or a third-party encoder that supports encoding 24 fps MPEG-2 assets".
The problem is it does not explain the procedure/format/setting in order to reach the final project in iDVD with a 24P asset.
Can someone please clarify if you know something?

What is the difference between /assets/account/import and /data/account ?

Does anybody knows what is the use of /assets/account/import and /data/account.
What is the difference between these two and their functional use.
thanks

/assets/account/import is used in the context of performing account file uploads through the E10 UI. If you navigate to Contacts > Accounts > and click Upload in the top right corner (above search), you'll get the upload wizard:
The moment you click the cloud icon and select a file, two actions take place:
1) POST to /assets/account/import is made, where you are passing the name, import source and purpose of the import. The response includes the id of the new import object you created
2) Another POST to /assets/account/import/{id}/csv is made, which includes the data in your chosen file
Afterwards, you perform the mappings and go to step 4 of the wizard. When you click Finish, another two actions take place:
1) PUT /assets/account/import/{id} to update the import definition with your mappings from Step 3
2) POST to /assets/account/import/{id}/queue to send this import into the import/upload queue. At this point it becomes visible from Setup > Integration > Inbound > Reporting > Upload History
Note that this workflow is not meant for client use, but rather helps facilitate UI functionality for marketing users. You should be using Bulk API to add or update records, which also confers other advantages such as the ability to use syncActions. The only functionality not available in Bulk API which is available through this workflow is the ability to delete Accounts. For obvious reasons, its recommend that you do NOT automate the deletion of any records. Accounts especially are not subject to any band limits or rates, so its best to have Marketers remove them as needed.
Regarding the second part of your question, the /data/accounts endpoint will provide you with up to 1000 account records when using GET. A POST can also be made to create a new account record (company) within Eloqua. Otherwise, GET /data/account/{id} will retrieve the details of a particular record and PUT /data/account{id} will update a particular.

Fixed Asset import - Life Parameter

Hi All.
I'm attempting to import legacy fixed assets. In the log file I am getting a Life Parameter error.
Can you please check my logic and / or correct me.
End of Financial Year is 30/06/09 (2009-06-01) . Useful life = 48 months. Depreciation start date = 2009-07-01
I am attempting to upload a remaining life of 47 months
Capitalisation date = 2009-06-01
Depreciation Start Date = 2009-07-01
Remaining Life = 47
Have I got this right? Anyone have any ideas on what could be the issue?
Thanks
Peter

Hi,
The import functionality is mainly designed to import legacy data , meaning that user wants to have start of fiscal year values of a fixed assets with capitalisation-start depreciation date in a year earlier than fiscal year of the import
In your scenario, the Fiscal year of start depreciation is 2009 and you want to import values at start fiscal year of 2009, logically this
means that start depreciation date is not earlier than first day of fiscal year 2009, so the reamining useful life must be equal to total useful life.
For acquisitions in current fiscal year I would recommend to use the module 'adquisition' rather than import
I stronlgly recommend to visit in SAP Channel portal, Business One, SELF-HELP & LIBRARY, Financial Add-ons: There, under root cause , there is one item dedicated to Fixed assets problems and in particular to import processes.

How do I import and export PDF's from Ibooks

How do I import and export PDF files from Ibooks on the IMAC running Mavericks?
How do I sync my PDF files in IBooks to the IPAD when they were not purchased from the bookstore?
I noticed that I could email the PDF and then add it to IBOOKS on the IPAD.
Is there a 3rd party IBOOK type reader that will address this issue?
When I upgraded Mavericks it moved all of my PDF files in ITUNES application to IBOOKS and removed all reference to those
books in ITUNES. When I purchase a book from IBOOKS store on the IMAC, the books shows up in IBOOKS on the IPAD.
All of my PDF files will not sync up with the IPAD.
I do hope this is a problem that Apple will address and would like to know when the fix will be available.

Hello,
Thank you. I found that option you pointed out. I can now change it from 1080i to 1080p and I can chance the resolution. However I still can't change the frame rate. It still stays at 29.97.
Could this be due to the camera? I am using a Canon VIXIA HF S100 with 30p and 24p frame rate options. I suspect that it does not really shoot at true 24p and only does 24p within 60i.
Frankly, I don't really care about getting 24p support too much but it would be very nice to have the option.
I'll keep toying with the program. Still, anymore ideas or thoughts would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you Wild Giles.

Fixed Asset Importation Issue (Capitalisation Date)

Hello experts,
I have an issue regarding fixed asset importation.
I've import the fixed asset master data correctly in the system, with it's correct capitalisation date, APC, depreciation cumulative value and everything else correctly in the master data. Under Administration --> Data Import/Export --> Data Import --> Import Fixed Asset Master Data from Microsoft Excel.
However, where the issue is, it's now on the fixed asset history sheet, where the capitalisation date, is defined as the first date of the fiscal year "01/01/2014". Where by none of these assets were purchased on that date. But everything else on the report is correct except the capitalisation date.
Due to this issue, it is hard to explain how an asset was purchased on 01/01/2014, which have a use full life of 4 years, has depreciate completely in 2015. But if I check in its master data, I find out the capitalisation date is like in 6 years ego.
Note: I'm using SAP Business One 9.0 PL11
Any suggestion, comment or help is highly appreciated.
Best Regards,
Cedric Kayitare

Hi Cedric,
Capitalization date won't change it self after import. Check your import sheet which capitalization date you have enter. you need to execute fiscal year change and then import sheet.
If you have capitalization date for different years then you should have all period created and then year transfer.
In that case you will have to run depreciation from SAP for all corresponding year.
Post your sheet with heading for more understanding.

Chintan

Fixed asset import problem because of validation

Hi all,
I have a problem caused by the validation of the import tool for fixed asset.
Because the customer is using a depreciation method starting on the first day of the next period I cannot import the remaining life in months properly.
Here are the facts for my example:
- Fiscal year from January to December
- 36 months linear depreciation
- Import done on Jan 1 2009
- Asset bought in March 2008
- Start depreciation in April 2008
As per the validation in the import tool I need to put 26 months remaining but the reality is 27 months remaining.
What can I do to solve this issue?

Internal table with Import and Export

Hi All,
Hi all
Please let me know the use of <b>Internal table with Import and Export parameters and SET/GET parameters</b>, on what type of cases we can use these? Plese give me the syntax with some examples.
Please give me detailed analysis on the above.
Regards,
Prabhu

Hi Prabhakar,
There are three types of memories.
1. ABAP MEMORY
2. SAP MEMORY
3. EXTERNAL MEMORY.
1.we will use EXPORT/ IMPORT TO/ FROM MEMORY-ID when we want to transfer between ABAP memory
2. we will use GET PARAMETER ID/ SET PARAMETER ID to transfer between SAP MEMORY
3. we will use EXPORT/IMPORT TO/FROM SHARED BUFFER to transfer between external memory.
ABAP MEMORY : we can say that two reports in the same session will be in ABAP MEMORY
SAP MEMORY: TWO DIFFERENT SESSIONS WILL BE IN SAP MEMORY.
for ex: IF WE CALL TWO DIFFERENT TRANSACTIONS SE38, SE11
then they both are in SAP MEMORY.
EXTERNAL MEMORY: TWO different logons will be in EXTERNAL MEMORY.
<b>Syntax</b>
To fill the input fields of a called transaction with data from the calling program, you can use the SPA/GPA technique. SPA/GPA parameters are values that the system stores in the global, user-specific SAP memory. SAP memory allows you to pass values between programs. A user can access the values stored in the SAP memory during one terminal session for all parallel sessions. Each SPA/GPA parameter is identified by a 20-character code. You can maintain them in the Repository Browser in the ABAP Workbench. The values in SPA/GPA parameters are user-specific.
ABAP programs can access the parameters using the SET PARAMETER and GET PARAMETER statements.
To fill one, use:
SET PARAMETER ID <pid> FIELD <f>.
This statement saves the contents of field <f> under the ID <pid> in the SAP memory. The code <pid> can be up to 20 characters long. If there was already a value stored under <pid>, this statement overwrites it. If the ID <pid> does not exist, double-click <pid> in the ABAP Editor to create a new parameter object.
To read an SPA/GPA parameter, use:
GET PARAMETER ID <pid> FIELD <f>.
This statement fills the value stored under the ID <pid> into the variable <f>. If the system does not find a value for <pid> in the SAP memory, it sets SY-SUBRC to 4, otherwise to 0.
To fill the initial screen of a program using SPA/GPA parameters, you normally only need the SET PARAMETER statement.
The relevant fields must each be linked to an SPA/GPA parameter.
On a selection screen, you link fields to parameters using the MEMORY ID addition in the PARAMETERS or SELECT-OPTIONS statement. If you specify an SPA/GPA parameter ID when you declare a parameter or selection option, the corresponding input field is linked to that input field.
On a screen, you link fields to parameters in the Screen Painter. When you define the field attributes of an input field, you can enter the name of an SPA/GPA parameter in the Parameter ID field in the screen attributes. The SET parameter and GET parameter checkboxes allow you to specify whether the field should be filled from the corresponding SPA/GPA parameter in the PBO event, and whether the SPA/GPA parameter should be filled with the value from the screen in the PAI event.
When an input field is linked to an SPA/GPA parameter, it is initialized with the current value of the parameter each time the screen is displayed. This is the reason why fields on screens in the R/3 System often already contain values when you call them more than once.
When you call programs, you can use SPA/GPA parameters with no additional programming overhead if, for example, you need to fill obligatory fields on the initial screen of the called program. The system simply transfers the values from the parameters into the input fields of the called program.
However, you can control the contents of the parameters from your program by using the SET PARAMETER statement before the actual program call. This technique is particularly useful if you want to skip the initial screen of the called program and that screen contains obligatory fields.
Reading Data Objects from Memory
To read data objects from ABAP memory into an ABAP program, use the following statement:
Syntax
IMPORT <f1> [TO <g 1>] <f 2> [TO <g 2>] ... FROM MEMORY ID <key>.
This statement reads the data objects specified in the list from a cluster in memory. If you do not use the TO <g i > option, the data object <f i > in memory is assigned to the data object in the program with the same name. If you do use the option, the data object <f i > is read from memory into the field <g i >. The name <key> identifies the cluster in memory. It may be up to 32 characters long.
You do not have to read all of the objects stored under a particular name <key>. You can restrict the number of objects by specifying their names. If the memory does not contain any objects under the name <key>, SY-SUBRC is set to 4. If, on the other hand, there is a data cluster in memory with the name <key>, SY-SUBRC is always 0, regardless of whether it contained the data object <f i >. If the cluster does not contain the data object <f i >, the target field remains unchanged.
Saving Data Objects in Memory
To read data objects from an ABAP program into ABAP memory, use the following statement:
Syntax
EXPORT <f1> [FROM <g 1>] <f 2> [FROM <g 2>] ... TO MEMORY ID <key>.
This statement stores the data objects specified in the list as a cluster in memory. If you do not use the option FROM <f i >, the data object <f i > is saved under its own name. If you use the FROM <g i > option, the data objet <g i > is saved under the name <f i >. The name <key> identifies the cluster in memory. It may be up to 32 characters long.

Asset sold and purchased back

Hi Gurus,
I wanted to find out how other companies handle this situation. We have an asset that was sold last year and it was purchased back this year. From what I understand from the user, is they wanted to see the history and total accumulated depreciation in AW01N (before the asset was sold and after it was purchased back) since it is the same asset.
It will be recorded at the NBV at the time of purchase (APC less accumulated depreciation as if we owned the asset).
For example, APC = $3000, asset life is 3 years. Asset sold after 1 year (NBV = $2000). Asset purchased on second year (NBV = $1000). So we want to post using Gross method, showing asset value of $3000 and an accumulated depreciation of $2000. The remaining life should be 1 year.
Is there a transaction in ABSO to do this? Do we put it back to the same asset number and remove the deactivation date? Will the monthly depreciation be the same?
Thanks,
Arnold

Hi,
Since you have sold your asset in last year, then now it should be treated as a new asset purchase as per the best practises.
1) Create a sub asset number under your old main asset master and post the F-90 with the amount, which need to be paid back to your customer. Then you can have the history against the main asset atleast
2) Or else, if you want to re-initiate your old asset master, try to reverse your sale entry with current date using AB08. In this case, i am assuming that you have to return the same amount of money, which you have taken from your customer last year when selling your asset.
I am not sure about the 2nd case, whether it is advisable or not.

Integrating barcode asset management and LR

I have discovered to my delight that you can integrate Lightroom and barcode based print asset management. This is a way to:
automate the printing of labels for images without any rekeying of information, and
automate the process of finding the image from which a print was made
Why do this? You may sell prints or just make them for your own pleasure. It is good practice to provide some labelling of prints so you (or the buyer) knows what they are looking at. It can be helpful to be able to quickly find the source image of a print. Of course you can just include the filename in the label and type it in to find the source image. But the labels produced look a bit messy with a sometimes arbitrary filename stuck in there. An option is to include a neat barcode on the label. You can then use your webcam to read the label and direclty insert the filename in the LR search field. Presto! Up pops the image from which the print was made.
Caveat: Apologies to Mac users, I have only worked this out on a PC. I'm sure there are substitutes for each of the things I've used.
What you need to do this [on a PC]:
Lightroom (LOL)
LR/Transporter (incredibly useful for many things)
Excel (optional but part of my workflow)
A way to print labels with barcodes. I use a cheap Brother label printer which comes with the P-Touch Editor software.
A webcam
Webcam barcode reader software. I use bcWebCam which is free
How I do it:
I'll sketch how I do it with the specific gear I have and then suggest how you may get by with other gear.
Simplest workflow:
Set up LR/Transporter to export a summary file from image exports that includes all the fields you may want on your label (including filename of course). Format for comma delimited a CSV file with a header line to define the exported fields. This is saved and reused as an export preset. Routlinely I can then select the images I am printing and export them to a dummy folder which I use for the purpose of transferring Image information.
I use my label printer software with a template that merges the CSV file data onto a label, with the filename printed as a QR barcode. I generally put one label directly on the print reverse and, if framed, another on the frame rear. With high quality art prints I only do the latter to avoid any possibility of problems of with the adhesive discolouring the paper obverse. Here's an example.
Having previously installed bcWebCam, if I need to find an image that needs a bit of a search (only likely if I've not worked on it recently), I load bcWebCam while LR is running, place my mouse cursor in the search field in the library view (having selected the root of my catalogue), and hold the print label in front of the web cam. Presto! bcWebCam inserts the filename in the search field and up pops the image in LR!
In reality, I use excel as an intermediary to read the LR/Transporter data and reformat some items. One reason is the GPS information exported by LR/Transporter has some weird characters in it and they need to be cleaned out. Characters with accents or umlauts also need some special treatment. Excel also lets me define how many of each label I want printed... The label printer software reads the excel file as a database and allows printing of the required number of labels.
If you are interested in this solution you are likely to have tens or hundreds of thousands of images in which case camera generated filenames will not be unique. I add a month and year in import and conversion to DNG into LR to ensure filenames are unique. There are a range of other work-arounds that may suit your workflow better. But remember, you need something that LR will find in a single search. It may be you create a unique identifier in a EXIF or IPTC field - this will work too... Some smart bunny may point out to me there is some foolproof automatic unique identifier for each image built into LR which can be accessed and exported but I am not aware of it. I guess image creation time (to the second) comes pretty close but I cannot see how to search on this from a search field entry...
Where you may need to find some workarounds:
If you are on a PC, the one thing that is not available on the net is the barcode label printer. In the past I used to print labels on multi-label sheets with a laser printer. It's not obvious to me how to translate the unique image identifier into a barcode for this approach but I'm sure there will be one out there. But I came to the conclusion that a dedicated "on demand" label printer would save a huge amount of messing around. I think the Brother model I use is about US$79 which doesn't exactly break any bank. And the continuous paper roll I use means labels end up about 2.5 cents a pop... What makes this or even the more capable models (with auto-cutters) such a great deal is the P-touch sofware which does do all the linking of database to label and info field to barcode. This is worth the price alone I reckon. There are other free and for-fee webcam barcode readers out there too; the one I've noted works for me...
This may sound pretty complex to set up. But the reality is, once export, database and print templates are in place, it's all automatic.

Hi,
Great use of LR/Transporter
The strange characters result from the fact that LR/Transporter outputs files with a UTF-8 encoding. You need to be able to read that so see them. Most applications can read UTF-8 nowadays.

Asset import purchase order

Hi expert
While doing migo for asset Import Purchase order i am getting valuation class error for account keys FR3 " account determination for entry FR3 not possible"
my question is does how does i link the asset po to valuation class, in OBYC we requires valuation class and G/L account.
Regard
Nabil

Dear Sayed,
In obyc for transaction key FR3 you have to maintain G/L account for custom clearing.
If you want to know how its working then go to me23n and at item level click on conditions tab and then click "Analysis" where you will able to find pricing procedure which is used in perticular PO ....then go to M/08 and find out that pricing procedure,select the same and click on control,you will find FRE key linked to some of your condition type...so for that it is not able to find G/L as it is not linked in OBYC so it is throwing above error.
Linked reqd G/L in OBYC with help of FI consultant.

Folders per se cannot be imported - only pictures (or movies) in a folder can. So, you have to select a folder containing at least one picture or movie (all pictures and movies found are automatically selected when the import dialog opens). This is probably not the case for the folder you want to add, so "no photos found" is displayed in the dialog center and the "Import" button is greyed out.

Import and use custom Illustrator Symbol Library in Photoshop?

I would like to import and use my own (project-specific) Illustrator Symbol Libraries in Photoshop
Background info
- I create BIG amounts of assets (for UI design) in Adobe Illustrator which I save as Symbols.
- I store these symbols in a custom symbol library so I can re-use them in a different file
- Reason A: to be able to re-use these symbols within the Illustrator file to visualize different "interaction flows" to my clients
- Reason B: I use vector assets because they allow me to accomodate for different screen resolutions in the future
Wish
A: I would like to be able to open the same symbol library I created in Illustrator in Photoshop and drag the symbols onto my Photoshop canvas
B: If I change a symbol in Illustrator it should be updated in my Photoshop file
Question
- Does anyone know of a way to do this? A work-around, a plugin or a Script would be fine too...
regards, Koen

B: If I change a symbol in Illustrator it should be updated in my Photoshop file
Check out this Panel:
http://www.ps-scripts.com/bb/viewtopic.php?f=27&t=3045&sid=70f368dca9bfd96f3c974ee11b798f9 7
But that is for placed Smart Objects, and would affect changed Symbols in ai-files naturally only if there were instances of them in the document.
Basically I find what you are asking pretty unrealistic* and would be surprised if an easy solution would be forthcoming.
Scripting might offer possible work-arounds that use BridgeTalk to get Illustrator content over to Photoshop, but that would probably be slow and not meet what you are expecting.
The possibly easiest approach might be to have a Script create a new Layer and place one Symbol on it for each one of the Symbols in Illustrator, then save a psd with Layers.
Why do you need the Symbols in Photoshop anyway, if I may ask?
Edit: *) unrealistic in terms of the functionality currently being realizable with a reasonable expenditure of resources; but I’m admittedly a layman with regard to that.

HT1338 My MacBook Air is very slow. Every time I click the mouse, the spinning wheel appears and remains for up to 30 seconds. Can you help me?

My MacBook Air is very slow. Every time I click the mouse, the spinning wheel appears and remains for up to 30 seconds before the screen changes. This has been happening the past 24 hours. Any ideas?

First, back up all data immediately, as your boot drive may be failing.
If you have more than ten or so files or folders on your Desktop, move them, temporarily at least, somewhere else in your home folder.
If iCloud is enabled, disable it.
Disconnect all wired peripherals except keyboard, mouse, and monitor, if applicable. Launch the usual set of applications you use when you notice the problem.
Step 1
Launch the Activity Monitor application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ If you’re running Mac OS X 10.7 or later, open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Activity Monitor in the page that opens.
Select the CPU tab of the Activity Monitor window.
Select All Processes from the menu in the toolbar, if not already selected.
Click the heading of the % CPU column in the process table to sort the entries by CPU usage. You may have to click it twice to get the highest value at the top. What is it, and what is the process? Also post the values for % User, % System, and % Idle at the bottom of the window.
Select the System Memory tab. What values are shown in the bottom part of the window for Page outs and Swap used?
Step 2
You must be logged in as an administrator to carry out this step.
Launch the Console application in the same way as above. Make sure the title of the Console window is All Messages. If it isn't, select All Messages from the SYSTEM LOG QUERIES menu on the left.
Post the 50 or so most recent messages in the log — the text, please, not a screenshot.

I successfully synched photos from my mac book iphoto to my new iphone 5 (icloud did not do the job). Now these photos appear on my phone in three places--iphoto app, last import, and photo library. Does that mean that they take up three times the memory? Will that affect iCloud? Sorry for the end-user questions!!

HHi, thank you for the reply. I have checked my iPad and iPhone and neither has iCloud Photo Library (Beta) enabled. Turned off in both. Photostream is turned on.
i tried to sort it out by dragging all the photos to Events on the Mac and then deleting them from iCloud - (left hand side of iPhoto under the section 'Shared'). the photos now show up in Events. I did force quit but the issue remains. The message reads ' photos are bing imported to the library. Please wait for import to complete.'
i can't empty iPhoto trash either. The message read "Delete error. Please wait for import to complete.'
WHen I was moving the photos to the Events I always had a message about duplicates - to the effect that the photos already existed, did I want to import them? I clicked on Yes, import all duplicates. But when it showed the images - duplicates side by side - one showed the photo and the other was blank.
I really don't know what to do! And I don't know how to handle my iOS devices. Is it to do with the large number of photos? Any help, advice appreciated.
