Advance Procurement /Long Lead item

Hi Experts,
We have some long delivery items in BOM for which we are trying advance procurement. We have maintained strategy 70, item category'L' in material master and attached the material to an activity which is 2 months prior to the scheduled production. We generated PR for this item and created PO however during the Project MRP run, system is generating PR again for this item. Please inform which are all the settings required to prevent the PR getting generated again during project MRP.
Any help on this issue is highly appreciated.
Points assured.
Best Regards
Afroz Ahmed

Hi Afroz,
Please maintain individual collective indicator in material master MRP-4 view of the long lead time material to
"2-collective. So that the system will consume the existing stock.
Thanks and regards

Procurement of Long lead item for Projects

Hi Gurus,
I have a scenario where the main item required to execute the Project has a lead time of more than one year. The project is executed in 4-5 months period hence it is decided only at the start of the fiscal year. In such cases, the project will be created only after the fiscal year starts or just before that and the budget will be allocated only after the fiscal year started whereas the PO for material has to take place long before so that the item is received on time to execute the project. How to handle such cases ?
Thanks
Vinodh.

Hi,
What will happen if I maintain the "No Stock" indicator and raise PRs through activities ?
thanks in advance.

Advance Procurement through Sale Order

Dear All,
I required detail infromation pertaining to advance procurement of ROH items against sale order. If manual Purchase requisitions are being created by assigning sale order as account assignment, exception-20 is coming. I also like to inform project system is n't used. Your earliest reply is highly appreciable.
Thank you in advance.
Best Regards,
Ranjan

Dear Biplap,
Exception Message 20 is Cancel process, meaning the system is directing the relevant person to delete the requirement in order to avoid excess inventory.
This is bound to come, since u have not run MRP but you are manually procuring the material. This need not be a point of concern as long as u are aware that the material and qty in consideration is what u require. Once u run the mrp at a later date, the exception message will change based on the planning results.
The exceptional messages will not stop you in any of your transaction but it is only a message for the MRP controller to take corrective action, if need be.

Reg planning of long lead materials

Dear all,
To make a finished material there are 4 stages below which we have raw materials which are expensive and require 8-10 months lead time to procure and here planning of raw materials is done once in a quarter, how to plan for such long lead time materials ( can we use MRP planning) here we should plan only raw materials and later on all the semifinished materials once we get the customer order
please help me
Thanks in advance
venu

Venu,
Use planning strategy "50" for your finished product, and you can create PIR for the forecast for the Finished Product. Take up MRP run and after MRP run for finished product you would get Planned orders of type "VP" and you would get dependent requirement for Components which can be processed further. Planned orders VP cannot be converted to Production orders, when a sales order is created for this product this planned order quantity would be reduced and new planned equal to the quantity of sales order would be created for execution.

Error in Shuttles - leading:items has been tampered.

Hi folks , I am facing the below error in a page, when we select any value from the LOV.
"You are trying to access a page that is no longer active.
- The referring page may have come from a previous session. Please select Home to proceed."
To give a bcakground, we have LOVs and shuttles which are linked to same VO. On getting the diagnostic log, we get
[41]:UNEXPECTED:[fnd.framework.webui.OAPageContextImpl]:MACCHECK: . Parameter failing validation is : ReportingNameShuttleRN:leading:items. Parameter ReportingNameShuttleRN:leading:items has been tampered.
Where ReportingNameShuttleRN is the custom Region.
If we remove the above shuttle from the page, the error is not thrown on selection of LOV, however after adding it we again get this error.
This shuttle does not have any data with null valies
BY looking into th error , I can understand that its throwing because of the Shuttle. But not sure of how to fix it.
Please help as soon as posisble.

Hi Anand , thanks for the quick reply.
yes you are right , I am using a custom VO for it.
One fuzzy thing in this issue is , I am not getting this error in development instance. But its throwing the error in our testing instance.
Is there any instance specifc change I need to do ?

Procurement as Stock Item Can it be used for Projects & Maintenance

Hi Experts,
I have new business requirement with respect to Stock Item.
We have two Material Types
1. ZPRJ - These stock items are exclusively used for Projects - further capitalization - Valuation Class & GL Account is different
2. ZRSA - These stock items are exclusively used for maintenance spares - Valuation class & GL Account is different
we received requirement for a material,
1. Procurement as Stock Item (Inventory) first and later use the same
1. Stock Item in Projects
2. Maintenance Purchase
is it possible in standard SAP the above requirement can be met,
Pl help
Thanks in advance
Srihari

Hi Srihari,
Any valuated material type can be purchased directly to consumption (project, maintenance, etc.) or first purchased to stock and then issued from stock charging the corresponding object (project, maintenance, etc.)
You purchase to consumption using a PO with account assignment category (AA categories K, Q and E are a bit special - there you purchase to stock, but special stock). You purchase to the (general use) stock using PO without AA category. The receipt (101) goes to stock (and stock account). Later when you want to use your material for a project, use trs MB1A (or MIGO with "goods issue" option) with mvt type 221 (or 261 if you don't use SAP PS system, but handle projects as "internal orders"). To issue material charging a PS "network", use mvt 281. To issue to PM order use mvt 261 and to issue charging a cost centre directly use mvt 201.
Hope this is clear.

Long Lead Out Times!!!!! Help

Anyone know how to cut down on writing lead-out times with dvd-studio pro 4
Took about 7 min for a 30 sec clip

The reason that the shorter the clip is, the longer the lead out is because of what I posted earlier. The dvd spec requires a gig minimum of data/content. Not all burners/burning applications will hold true to that spec, so some might not experience the longer lead out times (which is the burning application adding dummy padding data to fill the gig up). If you are using media, then that type is 'approved' by the dvd consortium; and typically is the type of media that will result in the long lead out times (complying to spec). Depending on the speed of the media and burner, 7 minutes would be about right for 1 gig (since the 30 sec clip wouldn't take up much by itself).
If you use media (not 'officially approved by the dvd forum), then it's basically looked at as a data disc, and generally don't end up having the padding data added on; and hence they burn quicker.

Has anyone implement paging / page breaks in long content items?

Has anyone implement paging / page breaks in long content items? Eg when a text item is long it would be nice if there was a portlet or something to be able to separate it in pages that fit in the users screen and display a message in the bottom like "page 1 of 3" etc with next and previous links.
Any ideas?

Oracle has a pretty good Oracle By Example on OTN covering this at [http://www.oracle.com/technology/obe/obe1014portal/html_templates/html_templat.htm]. I'd also recommend following on with the one on Item Placeholders to complete the picture [http://www.oracle.com/technology/obe/obe1014portal/item_placeholders/itmplacehold.htm].
My announcements are text items in one region. The region has a HTML content layout that uses pl/sql to determine where the first space is after 650 characters and if it is larger than 650 characters opens the item in a page using the item placeholder (hence my suggestion above). The code to generate this looks like this on the template. v_length is declared at the top of the tempalte so it is easy to change the length of the announcements:
      IF LENGTH ('#ITEM.CONTENT#') > v_length THEN
      v_space := INSTR('#ITEM.CONTENT#',' ',v_length,1); /*Find first space after designated length*/
         HTP.p('
<table width="100%" cellpadding="3" cellspacing="0" border="0">
    <tr>
      <td>#ITEM.IMAGE#</td><td valign="top">' || SUBSTR ('#ITEM.CONTENT#', 1, v_space) || '</td>
    </tr>
    <tr>
      <td align="right" colspan="2"> <MORE...</td>
    </tr>
</table>'
      ELSE
         HTP.p ('
   <table width="100%" cellpadding="3" cellspacing="0" border="0">
    <tr>
      <td>#ITEM.IMAGE#</td><td valign="top">#ITEM.CONTENT#</td>
    </tr>
</table>'
      END IF;Check out the OBE's and post back with any questions. They can sometime be challenging to get to work just right, but you can do a lot with these templates.

Since the recent Firefox update, our customers can no longer place items selected for purchase into the shopping cart; what is the cause and the fix?

Since Firefox was recently updated, customers who use Firefox as their browser can no longer place items selected at our e-commerce site into their shopping cart. We are not experiencing this problem with customers who use IE as their browser.

I created a brand new blank Captivate 6 file, applied a theme, inserted a few new slides and tried Preview. It worked! All four of the Captivate files I used in my previous testing were based on one file which hadn't been touched for two weeks. Somehow while working in the lastest file, either removing unused items from the Library or killing errors while Publishing, something somewhere got corrupted or removed. Something that all four files must have pointed to, since as soon as the latest file broke, all of the other files stopped working as well. Since the original file was inherited, I'm not even sure how to go about finding the problem. In my case, it won't be too big of a deal. I will create a clean template file and rebuild.
Thanks for your help!

In Apple Mail I can no longer paste items where I need them.

In 10.9.5, all of a sudden in Apple Mail I can no longer paste items where I need them. Everything goes to the bottom of the mail being composed. What's happening?

if it's an appletv 1g then you should go to settings on your appletv and remove the bind with the computer
and then set it up again
if it's the small black appletv then you don't pair them from itunes you only use it as airplay speaker and the atv access the itunes shared lib

SuperDrive: Long Lead-Out Times

I've recently created an iDVD project for my graduation and I've been burning a lot of copies to hand out to friends and family. When I used iDVD to burn my first copy, the DVD burned relatively quickly, but when it got to the Lead-Out step it took a very long time. I initially shrugged it off thinking it was just something weird with iDVD.
I then made an image of the DVD so it would be easier to duplicate and I've been using the Universal version of Toast to burn. That is suffering from the same issue of a very long Lead-Out time. The DVD burns in about two minutes with the Lead-Out taking about 6-10 minutes. That just sounds ridiculous since the Lead-Out is taking ~4x longer than the actual burning.
Is this normal across all MacBooks? I don't think my PC DVD burner ever took this long to do a Lead-Out. It's just kind of annoying since I'm trying to make a ton of copies and the Lead-Out is really slowing me down.
If it matters my SuperDrive is a MATSHITA UJ-857.

Yes, anything outside of 60 seconds wuld be considered a bit too long. Have you tried resetting PRAM?

What is the deal with the long lead time on delivering

boards. As a leader in test and measurement for industry, you should be examples as to fast lead times and reasonable delivery times. I regret that I will think twice when I quote an NI board for a project again. The long lead time is simply unacceptable!ARGHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!

boards. As a leader in test and measurement for industry, you should be examples as to fast lead times and reasonable delivery times. I regret that I will think twice when I quote an NI board for a project again. The long lead time is simply unacceptable!I too have felt the frustration about lead times. As an Alliance Member, I have ordered countless NI products and had lots of tense conversations with clients who are wondering what is holding up the turn-key system I promised them.
What we need to keep in mand is that NI is subject to part shortages just like any other manufacturer. They do their best to get things out on time, and in fact they do much better than others. I've been forced to order lots of Agilent equipment with > 20 WEEK lead times! Not only was there a 20 week lead time quoted when I ordered it, they MISSED the target by 4 weeks! In those cases, Agilent had the only solution and NI products couldn't cover it.
In many cases your DSM and / or ISR can help you locate a loaner to tide you over until yo
u board is shipped. I have had very good experiences in the past with those folks.
Hey, I'm also noticing that the standard lead times are now listed online when browsing the catalog. That should help you plan your project shedules in the future.
Again, for what it's worth, I feel your pain.

Since upgrading to ios8, pages very slow to load, and can no longer read items in my reading list when offline. ?????

SI since upgrading to ios8, Safari pages are very slow to load, Kindle crashes upon opening, and I can no longer read saved artices from my reading list when offline. Big disappointment. Is it possible to downgrade to previous ios?

I actually managed to fix it! But unfortunately I don't know what I was that I did that helped.
Anyways, this is kind of what I did.
1. I tried to reset form bakup via iTunes, no change.
2. I tried to reset as a new iPhone, problem still there and reading list also as bookmarks!? (several hundred)
3. Noticed that I could delete a bookmark, once in a while, the other times I got the 'Bookmarks are being synced. Please edit the bookmarks once syncing has completed.' message.
4. Because I figured that it was a memory problem, I thought it made sense to delete as many as possible, witch I did.
5. Noticed that it was more likely that I coould delete a bookmark if I restarted Safari.
6. Notice that it was even more likely that I could delete a bookmark if I turned the Safari sync with iCould off (with option detete information on iPhone) and then back on again.
7. When I was about half way through deleting the bookmark list I suddenly discovered that all but one of the items in my reading list was 'waiting' and one was downloading. I kind of was 'unstuck' now.
8. I started to delete items in my reading list, but every other time I got the 'Bookmarks are being synced. Please edit the bookmarks once syncing has completed.' message.
9. It took a while to delete all bookmarks and items in the reading list.
Hope you guys could use the info here to fix your problems too!
