AII needed at 3rd party end too?

hi everyone,
i was going through the documentation on AII and i came across this:
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_autoid40/helpdata/en/index.htm
getting started--delivery processing
accord to the diagram...the outbound delivery is "unloaded" by AII at the receiver side
now if a company if sending goods labelled wit rfid tags to a third party company...then does dat third party need to have r/3 n AII installed too?? or d company hav to share their AII servers wit them???

hi,
if you customer wants EPC codes he doesn't need to use AII as you can send the ASN (with EPC codes) to
him so he will receive the electronic ASN
and if he also uses RFID (I assume that he does)
he can use the information from the ASN (EPC codes)
to create a inbound delivery in his 3rd party software
(if can be anything even own developed soft)
so you don't need AII on the other side anyway
Regards,
michal

3rd Party End User Portal Offerings

Just wondering if anyone is aware of any 3rd party end user portal offerings.
The out of the box one does not provide the look & feel we are after (too "industrial" & IT-like) for our clients, so I was interested in any 3rd party off the shelf offerings that may available. We are a small, non-Sharepoint IT environment,
so customising the out-of-box version would not be the preferred option. We would be greatly interested in a more "client friendly" offering as delivered by many of the other service management tool vendors. We would also prefer to have a non-Sharepoint
version if one exists.
Another key feature that we would be after is for the incident/service logging to be integrated with the knowledgebase so suggestions are presented as the client enters the title of their issue. I've seen this in the client portal offering of a number of
other service management products and it is a great feature. Effectively can provide an answer to the client without them having to log a ticket.
Any advice or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

The master pages of the SharePoint are locked by Microsoft, so I kind of doubt anyone has any custom portals for you.
However you can obviously easilly change the colours, title and image logo etc via Site Actions \ Site Settings. I'm not a SharePoint expert but this is very little effort and any IT person can manage that. But if you say wanted to move the menu
to a top frame menu, you cant.
To remove that Need Help bit and replace it, refer to this easy to follow blog post by the SCSM engineering team:
http://blogs.technet.com/b/servicemanager/archive/2012/02/06/customizing-the-scsm-2012-self-service-portal-how-do-i-change-the-need-help-or-description-text.aspx
I think your entering Title functionality with Help Article suggestions would be a great future, same as here on the Technet forums, but I cannot see that anyone would have been able to create that functionality in SCSM with the portal. Maybe in future versions,
but I wouldnt hold my breath.
SCSM 2012 is not a quick out of the box product that you just install and off you go in a day, it takes a fair bit of configuring for the portal, ROs, SLAs etc. If you are a small IT counsultancy with small to medium businesses as your market, I might go
so far as to say this is not the product for you. But that is just my personal opinion.

Do we still need a 3rd party firewall ?

Since AEBS comes with a build-in firewall, should we uninstall the 3rd party firewall ? And disable the firewall in OSX altogether ?
Thanks

I've found that the new firewall in OS X Leopard is sufficient enough to protect my Macbook Pro while traveling. I have it set to "Set access to specific services and applications". When connected to the wireless SOHO I've also found the AEBS to have a very secure network firewall to protect the WLAN. Even when connected to the AEBS I still leave my Macbook Pro firewall enable so as to not forget when traveling to turn it back on. I haven't noticed any significant drop in network performance leaving it enabled while still connected to the WLAN via the AEBS. To test your firewall use free firewall test sites such as http://www.hackerwatch.org/probe/ Also if you want to encrypt your data then enable File Vault. For added security of your laptop data I'd suggest third party security tracking software such as LoJack or Undercover http://www.orbicule.com/undercover/
As for the IP address concern this is typical when visiting a website that the site you have specifically asked to visit will be able to see your IP address. You could try spoofing your address but it shouldn't be necessary and it may cause more problems when your surfing. Note: Just because the website you entered can see your IP address does not mean that your IP address is visible to a local hacker sniffing for open ports in your neighborhood. Both Leopard's firewall and the AEBS firewall allow you to set Stealth Mode so as to not broadcast your location and add an extra layer of protection making it more difficult for a hacker to crack your firewall.

Help needed with 3rd party software and Windows XP on MacBook

My Brother embroidery software has stopped working on the XP side of my MacBook. After all kinds of uninstalling and installing with support from Brother, they decided the problem is not the software and I should "contact my computer company." Since this is really a Mac, would Apple be able to help me with a Windows issue? The genius bar said no, Microsoft says no, so what is the point of buying a using a dual platform machine if no one takes responsibility for helping? I'm very frustrated and could use help from someone who works on both platforms.

*"would Apple be able to help me with a Windows issue?"*
Sorry, but no. Apple does not support third party operating systems and applications.

Shipping Papers (BOL, Packing List) needed for 3rd Party Sales Order

The Process followed is as follows:
Plant "A" enters Sales Orders for a Customer.
Sales Orders generate the material requirement on Plant "A"
The material req gets turned into a Purchase order on External Vendor.
Vendor provides the shipment information and a goods receipt is done on Plant "A"
Once the goods receipt is entered, it closes the Sales Order and the customer invoice prints.
The goods receipt, however, does NOT produce inventory, it basically passes through directly to the Sales Order.
Now incase of a export order, need to find a way to configure so that Export Documentation can be trigeered in the form of an Output Type, in short a Delivery needs to be created.

Hi Kaustubh
The answer lies in how the sales order is closed and invoice is printed when the GR is done.
Please check if it is possible to update the invoice with the information you want to be printed on the Export doc and Packing slip.If this can be acheived then you print the information out of the invoice without using the delivery.
Hope this helps.
Thanks

3rd party plug-ins/DSP

My head hurts. Why does my head hurt? Because I've been banging it against a wall for the last few days trying to figure out whether I need 3rd party DSP or plug-ins. So, I'm new to LS. Just bought it on the 11th with my spiffy new Macbook Pro 15" C2D 2.4GHz. I bumped up the RAM to 4GB too. Overall, I have to say that LS looks pretty darn comprehensive. I'm an old skool engineer used to working on real H/W (Neve, SSL, Trident, etc....) I've been evaluating things like T.C. Electronics' Powercore, Universal Audio UAD-XPander, Focusrite Liquid Mix, Waves, etc.....So, my questions are as follows: A.)Do I even really need external/3rd Party DSP? B.)Although the UAD looks cool, doesn't look like it's got much horsepower. C.)I've heard fantastic things about the Waves plug-ins as well, but will they suck up a massive amount of CPU juice and leave me out in the cold when trying to mix? and lastly D.)Has anyone used Liquid Mix with LS? I heard the Firewire latency is less than pleasant.
Thanks,
-Laurence

I'll try to answer your questions:
1) Apple tries to make Logic the only program you'll need for recording, editing, and mixing. They attack all the big plug ins with some variation, that is pitch correction is added so you wouldn't have to buy Antares or Celemony. That being said often the plug in is all a company really does, and thus they do it better. But they are not inexpensive. My off the cuff advice would be to get to know Logic very well and only spend money on areas that you find it to be lacking for you, that is, don't rush out to buy an inexpensive convolution reverb and find out Apple had a great one all along. That's actually what made me get Logic- I couldn't find a good reverb at a price I could live with. (I'm poor as the dirt.)
2) Waves makes a great plug in, and if you can afford it, go crazy, you'll find you use them. However you can demo them, or at least the reverb. They are fully functional and stop working after a certain period.
2) UAD is something I have to say I don't know anything about first hand. I've heard mixed things but that's all you ever hear really. I want to know myself how much actual processing power they add, I've heard 1 GHz but then I've heard other numbers too. Do you know they only work with their own plug ins? So if you don't end up liking those, which seems unlikely but still, you're stuck. But another way Logic can use extra processing power is with a "node", that is, another Mac with ethernet capabilities. If you do some serious mastering with your laptop, and your plug ins are draining you, you can farm some of that out to another computer. The Mac mini is what I'm sort of considering for that should I ever end up graduating from school and making some god **** money. And later turning my G5 into a slave to whatever Apple blesses us with in the form of a G6.
I hope any of this was helpful and good luck!

Advice on 3rd party video converters

Hi-
AppleCare has just told me that I'll need a 3rd party software video converter to turn my JVC GZ-MG155 HDD camcorder's ".MOD" video files into ".MOV" files so that I can edit using iMovie HD. I have no clue what I'm looking at when it comes to third party software or video converters. Any advice on what the best ones are? Which one(s) will get the job done without problems? I'm not concerned if I have to pay a little bit - I'm most concerned with getting something reliable. Thanks heaps!

Google MPEGStreamclip and get the free download. That will convert your files.

3rd party software for new computer

My old computer is no longer available. I have a new computer that I need to download iTunes onto. The problem is that I need some 3rd party software to be able to sync the 2500 songs from my 80GB video ipod to the new computer. I don't really want to pay for this software. Any suggestions on free software that is reliable to download? Thanks.

Why to use 3rd party ftp client

why not using the one in iweb?

There are 3 reasons to use a 3rd party ftp client:
1 - if you intend to use the freeiWeb SEO Tool to add Google Analytics, image alternate titles or other metadata to the site's files. This requires publishing to a folder first and you'll need a 3rd party ftp client to upload from there.
2 - if you intend on using a web site optimizer like Web Site Maestro which also requires publishing to a folder first.
3 - if you experience problems using iWeb's built in client. Some users have reported problems with iWeb's client and switching to a 3rd party client like the free Cyberduck solved their problem. Just a matter of need.
If you don't need to add metadata or optimize your site and iWeb performs as it's intended then there's no reason to use a 3rd party client.

I have a brand new iMac that does not have iDVD. Made a move on iMovie installed a 3rd party burn prog. but DVD won't playback on my regular dvd player. Need to burn one that will. Help!

My new iMac did not come with iDVD as they are not using iDVD any longer. I made a movie that I needed to put on a DVD that would play on any external DVD player. After calling Apple twice, they recommened a 3rd party program so I downloaded "Burn-osx" and made the DVD; however when i insert it into my player connected to the TV it gives the message "disk error --playback feature may not be available on this disk". Ok--now what? I am up against a time line here--need the DVD for a graduation party! Help! What am I not doing correctly?

I have a brand new iMac
If you are still within your 15 day return period. Call Apple they will sent out iDVD at no charge. (There are no realistic substitutes.)
Nicely explain that you may return the computer without iDVD. That usually does the trick. You MUST speak to a senior advisor to get a free copy. The first tier people cannot do it.
408-996-1010
800-692-7753
If that doesn't work you can purchase iLife 11 (includes iDVD) on disk.
IDVD is a wonderful piece of software and well worth the low cost of $40.

Yes, there are programs that will put a movie on a DVD. I have tried most of the other substitutes including Toast, Burn, and others. None of them come anywhere near the ease-of-use and power of iDVD. IDVD is specifically designed to work with iMovie. Get iDVD.

Hi aadeshs
This problem is on my laptop running Vista ( Business) on Adobe 10.0 , for many years I did NOT have a problem with this . No forum Pages on this.
Also i would like to know how screen readers can better interact with PDF as my wife has difficultys on some email attachments on her laptop , again there seems no easy avenue for someone in her situation surfing websites and forums for Hours maybe ok ok for sighted people, but not if you are blind & use a screenreader. No Support Help from Adobe is available.

SAP to 3rd party: EDI and XI: Needed advantages and disadvantages

HI All,
I have a requirement to sent PO data from SAP to 3rd party Vendors.(more than 30 vendors). Client insists on using EDI.!!
I have completed the config on SAP R/3 side and IDOCS are created in SAP R/3.
Since we have XI in the landscape, I have a few questions in my mind. Appreciate if you could give you feedback on these questions:
1. Should we send data directly from SAP to 3rd party using EDI adapter and avoid XI.
2. I assume EDI adapter will automatically convert IDOC to vendor format data and vice-versa.
3. All 30+ vendors will need to access this EDI adapter system or do they all need to have a separate one installed in there landscape.
4. If we use XI, will the adapter be able to communicate to XI. If yes what is the adapter name which connects to XI.
5. All vendors need this data in a slightly different format, so will the EDI adapter do the format conversion for every vendor ?
6. Since all vendors have a diff file format needed, I want to avoid doing extensive message mapping in XI. So can the EDI adapter handle it or is ther any easy way to do this mapping.
7. If mapping is not possible, then does it mean I will have to create a separate IDOC for each vendor in R/3 ( in vendor specific format) and send that to them.
Thanks in advance.
Regards
Shirin

Hi,
1) Should we send data directly from SAP to 3rd party using EDI adapter and avoid XI.
A) For EDI integration u need to have the EDi adapters and for that u need to purchase the seeburger license and which is need to be installed on XI and after that only u can use EDi adapter with Xi.
U can not ignore XI.
2. I assume EDI adapter will automatically convert IDOC to vendor format data and vice-versa.
A) Yes but only when u purchase the seeburger license. there are other ways as well either use conversion agent or module program which convert the XML to EDI format.
3. All 30+ vendors will need to access this EDI adapter system or do they all need to have a separate one installed in there landscape.
A) U have to use the EDI adapters with Xi and configure ur scenario in XI for all the vendors.
4. If we use XI, will the adapter be able to communicate to XI. If yes what is the adapter name which connects to XI.
A) Seeburger provide As2,X400,FTP,VAn adapters for EDi integration.
5. All vendors need this data in a slightly different format, so will the EDI adapter do the format conversion for every vendor ?
A) What EDI format ur vendor receivers the data it depends upon that.
6. Since all vendors have a diff file format needed, I want to avoid doing extensive message mapping in XI. So can the EDI adapter handle it or is ther any easy way to do this mapping.
A) Mapping is the part of desing and mapping changes accroding to the business requirement and mapping rule which is provided by Functional people.
7. If mapping is not possible, then does it mean I will have to create a separate IDOC for each vendor in R/3 ( in vendor specific format) and send that to them.
A) u need to do the mapping between IDOC and EDi then only the data will be mapped with the required target EDI strcuture.

3rd Party Process - Need to create DO

Dear All,
I'm trying to setup the 3rd party process for my current client. Here's my scenario.
1. Create SO, which auto triggers PR. Using item category TAS, which is auto determined from material master item category group-standard
2. Conver PR to PO, then PO appears in document flow.
3. Perform MIGO, but I can't select my virtual location as a storage location. I've not receiving stock physically, as third party vendor will deliver direct to out customer. When I perform MIGO, I have goods receipt check.
PROBLEM
I need to be able to create delivery based on the SO initially created. But because we're unable to PGR into desired location, I can't create my DO. Anyway item category TAS is not regarded for delivery. I need to create my DO due to the shipment documents need to be generated.
4. LIV, based on Goods receipt.
Can anyone recomend whats the best approach for third party order, GR into a virtual location and be able to create my DO based on the virtual goods received.
Any feedback is welcomed, thank you guys.

Hi,
Instead of third party scenario you can use Individual P.O process
In 3rd party you are determining item category TAS, instead determine TAB then you can able to to do GR and then create DO.

Need to do invoice verification even PO price is zero due to 3rd party sale

Dear friends,
AR complained he is not be able to do invoice with message " Billing quantity is zero"
After diagnosis, I found out it's a third party sales order..followed by Purchase order, becasue materials are free stock, thus PO has no unit cost..,after we issue GR, our AP can't to invoice verification (MIRO) due to PO priced is zero, which cause AR is not be able to invoice.
I temporarily solve the problem by reverse the GR, addn cost in PO, followed GR(MIGO) and IR (MIRO), at MIRO I adjust GL to offset the balance to price variance, in this way ,we don't need to actually pay vendor. Then AR is able to do invoice
My question is If there is any way that enable me to invoice verification even if PO price is zero to enable further customer invoice for third party sales process.
Your advice will be deeply appreciated.
Thanks,
Linda

A real 3rd party order does not need a goods receipt.
it only needs an invoice receipt which in turn enables billing to the customer.
As a free of charge delivery is usually not billed, this process is not possible in SAP without modification.
compare OSS Note 498162 - FAQ: Third-party order processing in purchasing:
1. Question:
Why is a free of charge third-party item not possible?
Answer:
In the standard system it is not planned to generate a free of charge item during third-party order processing, here an invoice receipt is required. The invoice receipt updates the purchase order history.Without this update, there is no confirmation stating that the order was delivered.This is controlled by item category table T163 and indicators REPOS and REPOV here.If you want to use free of charge items for 'Third-party', you have to set field REPOV for item category 5 to ' ' in table T163.You have to carry out the changes with Transaction SE16.This is a modification.

AII needed at 3rd party end too?
