Asset and Serial Inventory

Hello,
Where does the ZCM10 Inventory Asset Tag and Serial Number fields come from
? (The SMBIOS ? Which fields ? )
We purchase generic INTEL PC's from a local pc vendor (not a dell, or ibm).
Currently the only asset/serial information is attached adhesivly to the
PC's.
I'm looking at a process to modify the SMBIOS via Intel's Integrator
Toolkit, I have the option to set the following SMBIOS values:
System Serial Number
System Version
Chassis Asset Tag
Chassis Serial Number
Using a third party SMBIOS browser I've verified the values are being set
and changing. Unfortunatly ZCM 10 does not update the "Asset Tag" or the
"Serial Number" (Even when I click scan now). Where are these values
(Currenly blank) being pulled from on the PC?
Thanks,
-Paul

Hello,
After a bit of research It looks like ZCM is looking for the asset/serial as
part of the BIOS/DMI.
I have the SMBIOS populated with the information that I would like to
inventory.
Is is possible to redirect the asset/serial scanning on the adaptive agent
to the SMBIOS?
Is is possible to add a new field which is autofilled via WMI (SMBIOS) ?
Thanks,
-Paul

HU managed inventory Vs Serialized Inventory

I am looking for feedback on comparison between HU managed inventory and Serialized inventory. To which business scenario one of these are better placed than the other. Also if someone can share the Pros & Cons of these two way of inventory management would be helpful

Hi
HUM is used in conjuction to Wearhouse Management. Where as SrNo is used in IM at storage location level. HUM may be identified as Pallet, Container etc and quantity contained is already defined. Sr Number frofile is unique identification of each quantity which has same material number
If you want more detail then please inform.

Asset and Inventory accounts

Experts,
Is there anyway you can clear these accounts or post to these accounts? - I understand that these are recon accounts and cannot be directly posted to. I am looking for a way to clear these recon accounts like for AR and AP ( Sub Ledger) accounts, we can clear them by vendor/customer # - Is there anyway we can clear these recon accounts i.e for Asset and Inventory. If so, what's the T Code?
All answers would be duly rewarded with points.
Thanks,
Nandita

Nimit,
I was just giving an example of how we can clear AR and AP accounts(F-04 or F-44) - AR and AP accounts have nothing to do with Inventory and Asset accounts in our scenario. So is there anyway we can clear Asset and Inventory accounts in SAP ?
The reason i am saying this is i need to clear the balance of all accounts in a Co Cd using a clearing account - When i am saying all accounts, i am talking about all accounts including sub ledger accounts - AP, AR, Inventory and Sub Ledger.
AP and AR - i can take care of this by using vendor and customer number, as i cannot clear them by their accounts... However how do i do it for asset and inventory accounts ? Is there a way and if so how - tcode?
Thanks,
Nandita

Importing Assets and Timeline problem

Hello I have just purchased and installed Encore DVD 2.0 (inside Production Studio), so I am a novice. I have several movies/ shows/ etc. I created by using the Record TV in the Media Center Edition 2005 software. I've converted the DVR-MS file type to Mpeg2 using Roxio Easy Media Creator 7.0/VideoWave 7.0.
Using Encore DVD 2.0 I tried Importing MPEG2 file using Import as --> Assets and Timeline. It looked like the importing was moving along the progress bar reaching approx. 3/4 point. Then it restarts the importing process again reaching the 3/4 point again stopping with a popup box appears with the text message, "Stream Requested Does Not Exist". When I click the "Ok" button the importing process stops. What can I do to get Encore DVD 2.0 to work properly? Am I doing anything wrong?
My Computer is a HP Digital Entertainment Center Z555 using XP Media Edition Center 2005.
Intel Pentium 4 processor 530j with HT technology
2.5 Giga PC3200 DDR Memory
NVIDIA GeForce 6600 PCI-Express graphics card
250GB 7200rpm Serial ATA hard drive

As far as I'm aware, Nero is just fine as long as you don't create DVD-Video with it, as there was a bug with this when it seemed to not set the correct start sectors for the IFO & BUP files.
It's just fine for burning from ISO images, and for all other tasks though.
And that bug may well have been squashed by now.
Lots of people use Nero with no troubles at all - it's not my personal choice, but that means nothing.
It's certainly far superior to Roxio.
I'm actually quite surprised that Roxio & Nero are actually playing nice on the same system!
The only possible other "Gotcha" with Nero is the packet writing utility. Do not install this - it can and does interfere with burning DVD, as Packet writing works by helpfully "looking" at your burner(s) on a regular basis to "see" if there is any blank media inserted, and it will offer to format this & use it as a drag n drop type writing utility. It's called "InCD", and if already present should be uninstalled.
There is a list of stuff that is known to cause problems - some occasional, some constant - with DVD authoring at
Neil Wilkes, "Things and Software to avoid when authoring for DVD-V" #, 13 Feb 2006 6:43 am
Additionally, the utilities included with Nero are generally of a much better standard than those with Roxio.
Nero Recode, for example, has been praised in many forums.
There are a lot of users who swear by Nero, whereas there are a lot who swear
i at
Roxio!
Hope this helps.

Set Article which control batch and serial number at component level

Dear experts,
I have some concern about set article as the requirement for sale set my company would like to control inventory at component level and at the component level we required to control batch and serial number.
So, when posting GR of sale set article system will auto split material to control inventory at component level with MVT 319 and in this step should possible to manual define serial number for component.
Example
Header Sale Set A (Activate valuation type)
Comp1 : B (Activate serial number and control serial number during GR ref PO , control Batch)
Comp2 : C (Control Batch)
GR : Header Sale Set A
Expected Solution : System should automatic to split to comp1 and comp2 , for Comp1 B will require to input serial number.
Fact : During testing, system auto split to comp1 and comp2 for comp1 I can input serial number but after save the serial number that I input are gone.
I 'm not sure that for set article can we control serial number at component level? If anyone have the expereince in this. Please help ?

Kate

Duplicate and wrong Inventory information

I have a couple of PCs which show duplicate entries in the inventory list of one device - of course they are really on 10.3.4:

ZENworks Wake-on-LAN Handler 10.3.4.13490(C:\Program Files (x86)\...\handlers)
How can I get rid of the wrong entries? Inventory update is performed twice a week.
Servers: 2 prim Server w2k8r2sp1 with ZCM 11.2.2 with MS-SQL 2008 DB
Clients: mainly Win7 64bit SP1 with ZCM Agent 10.3.4 -waiting to upgrade to 11.2.3 due to multiple reboots for previous versions.

Does the "local workstation" version of the inventory report (accessed from the ZENworks Agent properties on that workstation) also show both versions, or is it correct?
I'm seeing something similar (but not entirely identical) on a few workstations - not just one, but certainly not all.
In my case, the "Detailed Hardware/Software Inventory" report on the workstation object in ZENworks Control Center gives, among other things, the following snippet:
Code:
Novell ZENworks Adaptive Agent 11.1.0.12959(C:\Program Files\...\bin) Network Config. Mgmt.
Novell ZENworks Adaptive Agent, Windows 10.3.3.44626(C:\Program Files\...\bin) Network Config. Mgmt.
Novell ZENworks Asset Management 10.3.3.2458(C:\Program Files\...\modules) Asset Mgmt PC Inventory
Novell ZENworks Asset Management Module 11.1.0.10525(C:\Program Files\...\modules) Asset Mgmt PC Inventory
The "local workstation" version of the inventory report for that workstation, however, shows only the 11.1 versions of each of the various components.
I've found this on three workstations so far, all of them checked on because they are listed under the older ZENworks Agent version in the predefined "Software Applications By Manufacturer" report. In one of the three cases (the one shown above), the "old" version is 10.3.3; in the other two, the "old" version is 10.2.0. All three of them appear to be running Windows XP, although the vast majority of our organization is on 64-bit Windows 7 SP1.
In one case, I "fixed" the problem by deleting the workstation object, refreshing the affected workstation (to re-create the object), running the inventory scan, refreshing again, and running the scan again. That's not actually a solution, but it did get rid of the erroneous data from that inventory record. (The double refresh-and-scan is because after the first pair, the "inventory scan" had found no software at all, including the operating system. I'm guessing it had not had time to pick up the appropriate product-recognition data.)
All I've been able to find so far about this online is explicit statements, from old ZENworks versions, that there is no way to remove the inventory data without deleting the workstation object. I hope that claim is now out of date, but I don't see anything to contradict it.

Adobe Store takes too long to deliver download and serial information

Earlier this week we received some Indesign files for a job, but they were in Indesign 5 format, so we were unable to open them with Indesign CS4. So, taking this as a sign that it was time to upgrade, yesterday, at around 1pm UK time I purchased the upgrade from Creative Suite Design Premium 4 to Creative Suite Design Premium 5.5. I logged onto the Adobe.com store, looked at the options - Home and Home Business, Small and Medium Business, Eductation and selected Small and Medium Business (because that is what we are). I purchased the upgrade (as a download), received a confirmation email from Adobe and waited....and waited...and waited. At the end of the day I called Adobe Custopmer support and asked why I have not had any email showing links to download sites, and serial numbers. I was told it can take 24 hrs to process the order.
Well here we are over 24 hrs later and I have still not had any information from Adobe. I tried calling the customer support and it is only open between 9am and 5pm Monday to Friday. The customer support website is down. The Adobe Volume Licensing site is down - and was all day yesterday as well.
In the meantime I have no way of opening the files. My deadline is Wednesday and we had planned to work on the job today and tomorrow (which is why I am sitting in my office now). It appears I cannot access customer support before Monday morning, and the customer support website is down until tomorrow evening UK time - at least. This means working all night on Monday and probably Tuesday - assuming we get access to the download information early Monday.
Adobe is one of the biggest software vendors in the world. When I buy software - online and for download, with a credit card - I expect to be able to access the software immediately. There is no excuse for this delay. None. A business the size of Adobe should not have customer services down for 2 days. Support should run 24/7, 365 days a year. My enquiry yesterday was routed to an offshore call centre, so having a 9 to 5 cut off is simply ridiculous.
The simple fact is that even the smallest software vendors we buy from deliver the goods within minutes. As you can tell I am mightily "annoyed" by this. At this point in time I am wishing these files were in Quark Xpress format (we have both). Quark used to have terrible support but they are now very good - and available.
As a customer of Adobe for over 15 years I am disappointed. Today, in my email inbox I have emails from Adobe about new online cloud services. Well, why would I want to invest any more in Adobe software if I cannot even access the ones I have bought - quickly?
If companies like Adobe want to know why piracy is rife - look at your own delivery systems. The only option I have now to do this job is to either download a pirated version (which I will not) or to download and run the trial for Indesign. How stupid is that?
Apologies for the rant.

Hi Kevin, not sure why it's taken longer than usual, but you can just download the free trial in the meantime. It will work 100% for 30 days, and you can convert it over to the full version once you receive your permanent serial number without reinstalling. This is fine even with a business license.
There's really no reason not to proceed in this fashion, especially with an imminent deadline. Adobe recommends this in cases where there is any sort of delay (for example, student validation) or immediate need. And absolutely you should avoid downloading the software from anywhere else, which is not only illegal but also hazardous to the health of your computer (malware).
Hope this helps!
Acrobat has never had a Trial for Mac. Probably never will.

Step by Step for FICO(GL,Assets and CO) Extraction

Hi gurus,
I am trying to see if i can get a step by step extraction process for FICO extraction cos am abt to start a project to extract and load GL,Asset and Controlling data into a BW system.I am thinking I shd be able to get a lot of the reports needed by installing the 0FI_GL_4.
Please any help will be appreciated and points will be awarded as well.

please search the forum before you post a thread, there are lot of threads discussing the same topic.
coming to steps in extraction:
install DS
replicate DS
create transformation between the DS and DSO
the same applies to DSO and cube.
But most of the times, no delivered DS supplements the clients finacial requirement, so if thats the case you would need to enhance the DS with the additional fields that would be needed in the reporting stand point

Opening and Closing inventory logic from MB5B

Hi Gurus,
I have a requirement to implement the logic used in transaction MB5B for opening and closing inventory.
I went through the program and searched form IMARD, BESTAND tables as some forum posts suggest, but could not figure out the complete set of logic to calculate the opening and closing inventory.
Has any one implemented the same logic and if yes if you can share that part of code that would be of great help as i dont have time to spend on R&D for the same.
Thanks all in advance.
Best Regards,
Ram.

check this logic.

ABST2 - Differences between Assets and G/L accts

Hi Experts
We are working on ECC 6.0 and INR is our local currency.
At the end of FY 2007 by mistake direct postings were made to Dep Fund Account which is a Recon a/c and FY 2007 was closed
And because of which FI-GL and FI-AA doesnt match by INR 37353.71 (amt posted in above doc) as shown in ABST2
I've referred SAP notes 104567 & 69225 and found the note 69225 relevant to follow as the difference has not resulted in the current or open years.
So we have passed direct entry which is exactly the reversal of entry posted above using ABF1 (INR -37353.71)
After posting the 2nd document, in ABST2 another line has appeared of INR -37353.71. Although the sum for my recon GL is now zero.
The output of ABST2 is as below now -
Sc Acct no.   BusA Year SG 1st local difference LCurr Doc.no.    Period
AS 31100                2009               37,353.71-        INR     W004
AS 31100                2009               37,353.71         INR     W004       999
When I come out of ABST2 , addition to 1st, error no 2 is also coming which I thought would disappear.
1.Differences between assets and G/L accts in the balance carried forward
     Message no. MQ555
2.Differences between assets and G/L accounts at the key date
     Message no. MQ557
Is still something else needs to be done?
Or can I move ahead as the summation of the difference is now zero?
Please suggest.
Kapil

We referred to SAP and they suggeted that the tagging of W004 in both the lines means that now there is no error even system prompts it as error.
So we continued with the transactions and after closing the FY 2009, today when we run ABST2, we dont get any error messages as there is no difference left between Assets & GL.

.How do I find out what Version (generation) of Ipod touch I have, as I want to know if I can download IOS 5 onto it? It was a gift so I only know the model and serial numbers but not the type

Hi, can anyone help me out with this question?
How can I find out which version of Ipod touch I have. I only have the model and serial numbers as it was a gift, but I would like to download IOS 5 if it is compatible?
Very frustrated Ipod user, any advice would be much appreciated.
Lynda.

I had the same problem because there are so many iPod models. There is a great article in Wikileaks that explains it all and also has pictures. I'm confident this answer your question.

Can I download Adobe Creative Suite 5.5 Design Premium on a new Mac if I've had it installed on my old one since December 2011? I have the product key and serial number.

I bought a new Macbook Pro 13 inch in December 2011 and I bought the Adobe Creative Suite 5.5 Design Premium shortly after and installed it on the computer. The other day my friend spilled his drink on my computer and it is now going to cost me $800 to get it fixed so I am considering getting a new one instead of getting mine fixed I'm not sure if the memory is still ok or not either. It didn't get that wet and Apple told me it is more than likely ok but there is no guarantee that they are going to keep the memory when they fix it. So I was wondering if I get a new one if I can install the Suite on the new one I still have the product key and serial number for the Suite. Or if I decide to get mine fixed and the memory is swept, then can I reinstall it on mine after it is fixed? If anyone can help me it would be greatly appreciated!!! Thank You
