Anyone using SDP billing ?

Hi,
Has anyone used the 2 stage approval process in SDP Billing before ?
If so, does SAP store the business analyst & approving manager anywhere ?
Thanks

I either get the QT movie delivered on DVD-ROM or delivered on an external FW drive already in the size and format that I want. I don't use DV output (I run the video in a window on a 2nd monitor).
I create a separate logic song for every music cue, which I find works for me. it minimises the need to fiddle with locking objects to TC when there are tempo changes etc. in order to hear the other music that I am working on in the film to get an overall global feel etc, I bounce a work in progress from each song and place them in the right place on a dedicated track in every music cue logic song. time consuming but effective.
for the film audio, I extract it to a track from the QT and run it in logic. can be a pain when having to change offsets but I have a technique for cutting the audio file to realign it with the film if I need to offset it.
what I would like to see is far better implementation of movies in logic in general. I tried using the detect cuts feature for a while but found it pretty much useless for me. I am still finding that logic forgets what QT was saved with a song, so I am having to relocate it again, and it irritatingly defaults to looking in the movies folder on my system drive.. so instead of fighting it, I copy the QT to that folder when I can, ie, when it is not too big a file. in general I would like a more elastic and intuitive way to glide a movie start point as far back or forward as I would like, to easily align the start point of a music cue with bar one.
that's all I can think of for now. any other Qs just ask.

  • Anyone Used Kik Messenger Yet?

    I was thinking about installing Kik. Has anyone used it yet and has the carrier tried to charge you for texting? On the Kik Website it says you can text for free. I just do not want to get a bill six months down line saying that I owe them money for texting.
    Thanks.

    If the app uses internet access for exchanging messages, there can be no charge by your carrier in regards to texting - the only charge will be for data access when exchanging messages with the app when connected to your carrier's cellular network - no different from using any other app that requires internet access when connected to your carrier's cellular network.
    The only charge for texting by your carrier can be when using the iPhone's Messages app to exchange SMS/MMS. I'm not aware of any 3rd party app that can replace the iPhone's Messages app for exchanging texts through your carrier's network. 3rd party apps don't have access to private iPhone API's, and such as app would require such access.

  • Is anyone using testing seeing compiler lock-ups? [SOLVED]

    As the title says, is anyone using testing seeing compiler lock-ups? I've been seeing them for about two or three days. Sometimes the system will hang for a few seconds at "Starting make" with 100% CPU usage, then will continue normally. Other times it will stop in the middle of compiling and CPU usage will drop to 0. Also, I've been seeing small hang ups with patches. Maybe four or five seconds when simple patches are being applied. Bringing MAKEFLAGS down to the default 2 from 3 seems to help a tiny bit.

    fakeroot would put it in the right time frame. I linked to your bug report Anarconda as it seems like the same problem. As always if anyone has anything to add, please do:

  • Is anyone using the Calendar Server to send external invites?

    Is anyone using the Calendar Server to send external invites?
    We have a Mountain Lion server running DNS, Open Directory, File Sharing and VPN. We have recently stood up the Calendar server and it is working very well. Internal invites work fine and are instantaneous to computer, iPhone, iPad. We have the ports working so that calendar items created outside the network work fine as well. Only problem is we cannot invite anyone with an external e-mail address. Each time we do the Calendar Error Log populates with:
    2013-04-15 13:11:03-0500 [-] [mailgateway] 2013-04-15 13:11:03-0500 [Uninitialized] SMTP Client retrying server. Retry: 5

    We have set up an internal e-mail address. I have confined that it works fine. I have tried more than one internal account. I have also verified the settings through the command line by typing "sudo serveradmin settings calendar" The iMIP sending and receiving information is correct. There is no authentication type setting listed in the command line output even though there's a place to choose it in the Enable invitations by email - Edit button on the third screen. No matter what I choose it goes back to "login" and still doesn't work.
    The command line settings mention a port number 62310 as being the MailGatewayPort but opening that port on the network's firewall makes no difference. As I said external set up works fine from Mac/iPhone/iPad and push notification works fine as well.
    Is anyone using this functionality?

    I'm sorry. I forgot to add Mail to the list of services. I AM using mail on that server. Here's the iMIP portion of my settings output from Terminal.
    calendar:Scheduling:iMIP:Sending:Server = "boardwalkserver.kuhnwitt.com"
    calendar:Scheduling:iMIP:Sending:UseSSL = yes
    calendar:Scheduling:iMIP:Sending:Username = "calendarserver"
    calendar:Scheduling:iMIP:Sending:Address = "[email protected]"
    calendar:Scheduling:iMIP:Sending:Password = "password"
    calendar:Scheduling:iMIP:Sending:Port = 465
    calendar:Scheduling:iMIP:Enabled = yes
    calendar:Scheduling:iMIP:MailGatewayPort = 62310
    calendar:Scheduling:iMIP:Receiving:Server = "boardwalkserver.kuhnwitt.com"
    calendar:Scheduling:iMIP:Receiving:UseSSL = yes
    calendar:Scheduling:iMIP:Receiving:Username = "calendarserver"
    calendar:Scheduling:iMIP:Receiving:PollingSeconds = 30
    calendar:Scheduling:iMIP:Receiving:Type = "imap"
    calendar:Scheduling:iMIP:Receiving:Password = "password"
    calendar:Scheduling:iMIP:Receiving:Port = 993
    calendar:Scheduling:iMIP:AddressPatterns:_array_index:0 = "mailto:.*"
    calendar:Scheduling:iMIP:MailGatewayServer = "localhost"
    So Add mail to the services being used. Since Calendar is running on the mail server one would assume that it could communicate with it fairly easily.

  • Has anyone used JAAS with WebLogic?

    Has anyone used JAAS with Weblogic? I was looking at their example, and I have a bunch of questions about it. Here goes:
    Basically the problem is this: the plug-in LoginModule model of JAAS used in WebLogic (with EJB Servers) seems to allow clients to falsely authenticate.
    Let me give you a little background on what brought me to this. You can find the WebLogic JAAS example (to which I refer below) in the pdf: http://e-docs.bea.com/wls/docs61/pdf/security.pdf . (I believe you want pages 64-74) WebLogic, I believe goes about this all wrong. They allow the client to use their own LoginModules, as well as CallBackHandlers. This is dangerous, as it allows them to get a reference (in the module) to the LoginContext's Subject and authenticate themselves (i.e. associate a Principal with the subject). As we know from JAAS, the way AccessController checks permissions is by looking at the Principal in the Subject and seeing if that Principal is granted the permission in the "policy" file (or by checking with the Policy class). What it does NOT do, is see if that Subject
    has the right to hold that Principal. Rather, it assumes the Subject is authenticated.
    So a user who is allowed to use their own Module (as WebLogic's example shows) could do something like:
    //THEIR LOGIN MODULE (SOME CODE CUT-OUT FOR BREVITY)
    public class BasicModule implements LoginModule
    private NameCallback strName;
    private PasswordCallback strPass;
    private CallbackHandler myCB;
    private Subject subj;
             //INITIALIZE THIS MODULE
               public void initialize(Subject subject, CallbackHandler callbackHandler, Map sharedState, Map options)
                      try
                           //SET SUBJECT
                             subj = subject;  //NOTE: THIS GIVES YOU REFERENCE
    TO LOGIN CONTEXT'S SUBJECT
                                                     // AND ALLOWS YOU TO PASS
    IT BACK TO THE LOGIN CONTEXT
                           //SET CALLBACKHANDLERS
                             strName = new NameCallback("Your Name: ");
                             strPass = new PasswordCallback("Password:", false);
                             Callback[] cb = { strName, strPass };
                           //HANDLE THE CALLBACKS
                             callbackHandler.handle(cb);
                      } catch (Exception e) { System.out.println(e); }
         //LOG THE USER IN
           public boolean login() throws LoginException
              //TEST TO SEE IF SUBJECT HOLDS ANYTHING YET
              System.out.println( "PRIOR TO AUTHENTICATION, SUBJECT HOLDS: " +
    subj.getPrincipals().size() + " Principals");
              //SUBJECT AUTHENTICATED - BECAUSE SUBJECT NOW HOLDS THE PRINCIPAL
               MyPrincipal m = new MyPrincipal("Admin");
               subj.getPrincipals().add(m);
               return true;
             public boolean commit() throws LoginException
                   return true;
        }(Sorry for all that code)
    I tested the above code, and it fully associates the Subject (and its principal) with the LoginContext. So my question is, where in the process (and code) can we put the LoginContext and Modules so that a client cannot
    do this? With the above example, there is no Security. (a call to: myLoginContext.getSubject().doAs(...) will work)
    I think the key here is to understand JAAS's plug-in security model to mean:
    (Below are my words)
    The point of JAAS is to allow an application to use different ways of authenticating without changing the application's code, but NOT to allow the user to authenticate however they want.
    In WebLogic's example, they unfortunately seem to have used the latter understanding, i.e. "allow the user to authenticate however they want."
    That, as I think I've shown, is not security. So how do we solve this? We need to put JAAS on the server side (with no direct JAAS client-side), and that includes the LoginModules as well as LoginContext. So for an EJB Server this means that the same internal permission
    checking code can be used regardless of whether a client connects through
    RMI/RMI-IIOP/JEREMIE (etc). It does NOT mean that the client gets to choose
    how they authenticate (except by choosing YOUR set ways).
    Before we even deal with a serialized subject, we need to see how JAAS can
    even be used on the back-end of an RMI (RMI-IIOP/JEREMIE) application.
    I think what needs to be done, is the client needs to have the stubs for our
    LoginModule, LoginContext, CallBackHandler, CallBacks. Then they can put
    their info into those, and everything is handled server-side. So they may
    not even need to send a Subject across anyways (but they may want to as
    well).
    Please let me know if anyone sees this problem too, or if I am just completely
    off track with this one. I think figuring out how to do JAAS as though
    everything were local, and then putting RMI (or whatever) on top is the
    first thing to tackle.

  • Anyone using an HP LaserJet Pro CP1525nw printer with SL?

    I'm thinking of getting this printer. Can anyone using this with Snow Leopard please let me know how well it works? Any issues? Nice printer? I will be replacing a Samsung CLP-315 which prints very nicely, but doesn't work well after updating from Tiger to SL.
    Thanks

    It works just fine.  I picked up a 1525 yesterday, configured it using Lion, and I just now configured my wife's SL laptop to work with it.  No problems.  Just don't install the HP disk and let OS-X grab drivers for it and you should be fine.
    It's a little tricky configuring with Lion for wireless printing, but it's doable.  See my post at https://discussions.apple.com/thread/3449512 for a checklist.

  • Does anyone use a LaCie external hard drive with their Mac using imovie '09?  I have some questions.

    Does anyone use a LaCie external hard drive with their Mac using imovie '09?  I have some questions.

    Are you actually having a problem with the new Lacie drive, or are you just asking is the Lacie drive somehow different from your old G-Drive?
    From a connection standpoint, most Lacie desktop drives have both USB and FireWire connections, just like the G-Drives do.  You would connect and use it the same as a G-Drive.
    Regarding capturing to the external HD, if you are using a camcorder that has FireWire (iLink) connection, it is not advisable to have an external FireWire HD connected to your Mac at the same time as your camcorder; there are often communication conflicts between the camcorder and the hard drive if they are connected at the same time.  The conflicts usually appear as either dropped frames or a complete freeze.   This is more common with Canon miniDV camcorders but I have also seen this behavior with Sony miniDV camcorders.  (The problem is the camcorder's FW implementation, not the hard drive.)  The workaround is to capture to your Mac's internal HD and later copy the captured video to your external HD.

  • Has anyone used reMIDI as a plug-in for GarageBand. I downloaded a trial version of reMIDI, which enables MIDI instruments to be strummed or arpegiated, but can't get it to work in Garageband.  How do I set it up?

    Has anyone used reMIDI as a plug-in for Garageband ('08)? The program allows MIDI instruments to be strummed or arpegiated. I have a trial version, but can't get it to work in Garageband. Wonder how to set it up.

    Port Forwarding.....or Port Mapping....as Apple calls it is a difficult and complex configuration method for most users. Because there are so many variables involved in this type of setup, it is not possible to provide a step by step guide that will work for everyone with all devices.
    It is possible that a setup guide exists for the the WD drive and AirPort Extreme, but you will have to go looking for it on the Internet. Even if you find one, it may not be tailored to your specific situation or needs.
    Sometimes, you can do everything right....at least according to someone's article or "how to" guide, and things still will not work correctly.
    In situations like this, when you really don't know what to do, you need to enlist the aid of an IT pro, who will know what to do based on your particular products and unique circumstances. Sometimes....they won't be able to get things working either due to particular circumstances.
    But, before you do this, I would strongly recommend that you use a Static IP address for your Internet connection with your ISP. If you do not have this now, contact them to ask them if they offer this type of connection. Expect to pay more for this type of service, of course.

  • Anyone using Blackmagic Intensity Pro with Premiere CS4

    I've looked through the threads and have seen similar postings, but no real good answers. Is anyone using Blackmagic Intensity Pro to viiew timeline on a HDTV using the HDMI connector?
    I purchasedf the Intensity Pro and can't get it to work with CS4. Any assistance would be appreciated.

    If you're using a Core i7 processor, one of the problems might be with the motherboard.  There's only one Intel board that BM has approved (sorry, don't have the model in front of me -- on a piece of scratch paper in my wife's car).
    I'm looking to build a new system myself and have been looking at the Intensity Pro card as well.  The main feature I'm looking for is real-time preview and program output to an HD monitor that I'd hook up via HDMI.  I probably also would use it to capture analog sources for audio and video.  I don't have any interest in BM's lossless data capture as it creates monster-sized files.  That's why I was also planning to add Cineform once it's fully approved and working for CS4.  However, as best as I can tell, the Intensity Pro card doesn't recognize the Cineform codec on the timeline.  Does anyone know if and how well these two will function together within Premiere?  (I'm also assuming that the new 4.1 release might make these types of Premiere add-ons work better.)
    Thanks.

  • Down Payment processing for Sales orders using Milestone Billing Plan

    Hi,
    The business scenario is as follows.
    The delivery for the sales orders are to be created only after the pre payment( a percentage of the total sales order value) is made by the customer.
    Hence the sales orders while creation are blocked for delivery creation using credit block by means of a userexit.
    The credit manager checks the blocked sales orders using VKM1 transaction and verify if there are any payments made by the customer to cover this pre payment to be made.
    If it is enough to cover then he releases the sales order manually for delivery creation.This is a complex process since there are too many sales orders and the payments made by the customer may not match the amount to be paid(it can be greater or lesser).The customer just pays a huge amount which is to be distributed among the sales orders for pre payments.
    Later, when the invoice is created, the customer account is cleared manually using F-32 transaction for the oldest open invoices.
    Here again there is a huge manual effort involved since he need to distribute the amount against the invoices using oldest open item principle.
    As a solution we are planning to implement "Down Payment processing for Sales orders using Milestone Billing Plan".
    Is this the right solution?
    Can you please give the steps in detail to implement this functionality for above scenario?
    We are using SAP 4.7 version without Project Systems.
    Thanks in advance.

  • What kind of throughput should I expect? Anyone using AQ in high volume?

    Hi,
    I am working with AQ in a 10.2 environment and have been doing some testing with AQ. What I have is a very simple Queue with 1 queue table. The queue table structure is:
    id number
    message varchar(256)
    message_date date
    I have not done anything special with storage paramteres, etc so it's all defalt at this point. The I created a stored procedure that will generate messages given message text and number of times to loop. When I run this procedure with 10,000 iterations it runs in 15 seconds (if I commit all messages at the end) and 24 seconds if I commit after each message (probabliy more realistic).
    Now, on the same database I have a straight table that contains one column (message varchar(256)). I have also created a similiar storage procedure to insert into it. For this, 10,000 inserts takes about 1 second.
    As you can see there is an order of magnitude of difference so I am looking to see if others have been able to achieve higher throughput than 500-700 messages per second and if so what was done to achieve it.
    Thanks in advance,
    Bill

    Yes, I have seen it. My testing so far hasn't even gotten to the point of concurrent enqueue/dequeue. So far I have focused on enqueue time and it is dramatically slower than a plain old database table. That link also discussed mutliple indexed organized tables being created behind the scenes. I'm guessing that the 15X factor I am seeing is because of 4 underlying tables, plus they are indexed organized which adds additional overhead.
    So my question remains - Is anyone using AQ for high volume processing? I suppose I could create a bunch of queues. However, that will create additional management on my side which is what I was trying to avoid by using AQ in the first place.
    Can one queue be served by multiple queue tables? Can queue tables be partitioned? I would like to minimize the number of queue so that the dequeue processes don't have to contain multiplexed logic.
    Thanks

  • Waves 5.9.7.. anyone using it with L8?

    Hi,
    Trying to update my waves plugs (I have the musician II bundle and the NPP bundle). I noticed on their site it mentions the 5.9.7 update, that is also Leopard compatible. Is anyone using this new version of waves with Logic 8? I'm curious if I should wait on updating my plugs until all the kinks are out.
    Thanks;
    J.

    Does FCP still take 30-45 minutes to load the Waves bundle? In my experience, it would launch eventually on some version combinations...
    Even if you can use them in FCP, you would still see the numerical effects tab interface, instead of the nice skins you see in Logic. But at least you don't have to remember to drag them out of the plugins folder each time you want to launch FCP...
    I'm interested about this because I teach FCP at a school where Logic, Pro Tools, and the Waves bundles are on the same student workstations - We'd have to move those Waves files around at the start and end of every class.

  • Anyone Used X-Bench on new iMac?

    Ryan

    In fact, yes, there have been some tests done by Other World Computing. Bottom line: the 2.8 GHz iMac beats the others. Looks like the performance scales equally between the 2.0, 2.4, and 2.8 GHz models.

  • EMI 2/6, 6/2 etc. Anyone using these?

    I'm ready to upgrade to Logic Studio and would like to know if the old Emi 2/6 (A 2/6) or 6/2 usb interfaces will work in Leopard with Logic Studio (or Express/Garageband)
    Thanks

    I have been using the a6|2m, but one of the last updates (I can't tell exactly which) have now made the interface unusable: After a few bars of recording, I get distortion and delay of 1/2 sec. Also, the Audio-Midi-Setup and Logic don't work together anymore, e.g. if I change in Audio-Midi-Setup to 2 recording channels, Logic still offers six (or if I change to 96kHz, Logic doesn't notice the change, which produces quite strange output).
    Can anyone using the a6|2m confirm this problem?
    I've tested the interface with an older system (10.4.9) and a PC, on both systems it worked perfectly, so hardware faults can be excluded.

Maybe you are looking for
