Automated Phoneline Checking Catch 22

Using BT Infinity Boardband and Telephone.
Only problem cannot receive incomming calls. To any caller the phone just keeps ringing.
Used internet based system to check line. It found no problem. I used test socket using a different phone and it still did not work.
Rang 151 but cannot talk to human being. Forced to go through automated process of checking line. Told I will be called back but I know they cannot get through. Told if no call within 5mins ring 151 and select Update Option. There is no such option and am forced back through the whole process again. I could find no way of getting to talk to a person and after many attempts lied about wanting to upgrade and spoke instantly to a salesman. Apologised and explained what was happening. He told me to just say "fault" and that should get to a person.
I am afraid it didn't HOW do I get to speak to a person?

Automation Phreaks -- Check This Out

I've been doing a TON of plugin automation lately (i.e., EXS attack/release times). To facilitate this I've set up a key command to enable/disable plugin automation (changes are reflected in the automation prefs). While the key command does the job just fine, there's no visual feedback unless you open the prefs pane. So I have another key command to view automation prefs, and I'll view the prefs when I've lost track of whether I've enabled or disabled plugin automation.
There are other key commands that let you enable/disable the other automatable functions such as send, solo, etc., and this is extremely cool. However, if you lose track of whether a particular automation function is enabled/disabled, you have to open the prefs pane to check.
So maaaaaan would I love to see this in "a future version of Logic":

But really, is this something that people need to access continually - even to have in the track list? <<</div>
I'm finding that I need to access these parameters continually.
Here's an example...
I want to ride an EQ's cut/boost. So I enable plugin automation and do my ride. Then I think "maybe I should use a wider Q" so I disable plugin automation and while the track plays back I adjust my Q setting. I don't want to write those moves on the Q; I just want to play with the Q setting and settle on a static value for it.
Then a half-hour later I want to tweak the attack on an EXS patch, but I don't know what the right value should be. But do I remember from 1/2 hour ago if I disabled the plugin automation? Nope! So I have to check...
Sure enough, it's off. So I tweak my attack time. When I find the right value I enable plugin automation, write the attack ride, then disable it again.
So particularly with plugins, as well as sends (to name two) there are times you want to play with settings (but not write them) and other times when you want to deliberately write them. Hence, having these parameters visible would certainly speed up the creative process and make it more intuitive.
It's in the preferences, not the song settings for a reason. People might get confused when they saved a song with them all off, only to find they are magically all on again next time they load the song. <<</div>
I know it's not in the song settings, and there's no need for it to be IMO. They're fine being "global" settings. And if the enable/disable status of the different automatable parameters were always visible (as in my mockup above) then there should be no confusion.
But I have to say... sure, there are many things about Logic that are baffling and mysterious, all the more reason for bringing them up front.
One final thought... Automation isn't, for me, a bell/whistle --- it's an essential part of my work. For comparison, my digital mixer has its automation filters plainly visible so you can enable/disable things on the fly with visible feedback. Would like that for Logic.
Just an idea.

Automating Health Checks

Hi All,
I am working in a support Project on PI 7.1
As per the project, we need to perform health checks 4 times per day. I want to automate this activity to reduce our time & effort.
T-codes using for Health check: smq1,smq2,sm58,sm59,sm50,db12,db16,db02, SXI_cache, sldcheck, swwl, swpr, sxmb_ifr & java stack compoents.
Can anyone suggest/provide the solution for this?

Webdynpro - Check if a portal user has a user in R/3 Backend

Hi Experts,
i have following problem, and maybe some of you can help me out with an idea or (much better) a solution:
Our Company is running an Enterprise Portal on NW2004s (SPS 18). Currently i am developing a Java WebDynpro Application for the portal called Transactionstarter. Withhin this application a portal user can simply add a backend System (R/3), a transaction and a Description. This information will be stored in a xml file in userhome in KM. When the user clicks the description, SAP WinGui will open with the transaction he defined before. We use SSO for opening the transaction if the user has a backend user. If not, the loginscreen of the backend will appear.
All this works fine.
Now we have the requirement for an automated system check.
The portal user can run an initial system check. This system check should check all configured backend systems if the portal user has a user in R/3 backend.
But how can i check if my portal user exists in backend?
I cannot use JCO because we have a lot of Systems (more than 300 all together) and i don´t want to create a destination for every system. Or did i misunderstood something with JCO?
Does anyone of you have a solution, how i can check every system, if the portal user has also a backend user?
Thanks in advance.
Regards
Pascal

Hi Pascal,
with JCO you can use also the method JCO.createClient:
public static JCO.Client createClient(java.lang.String client,
                                      java.lang.String user,
                                      java.lang.String passwd,
                                      java.lang.String lang,
                                      java.lang.String mshost,
                                      java.lang.String r3name,
                                      java.lang.String group)
Creates an instance of a client connection to a remote SAP system (with load balancing)
Parameters:
client - SAP logon client
user - SAP logon user
passwd - SAP logon password
lang - SAP logon language
mshost - Host name of the message server
r3name - Name of the SAP system
group - Name of the group of application servers
Returns:
the newly created client
for connections to other systems. So you can avoid to create destinations

Automator not working properly while setting comments and moving files to folders, how to proceed?

So, this is my workflow, i've converted it into a folder action and applied it to a folder called "Automator" in my desktop:
i've turned "show this action when the workflow runs" so I can see what is going wrong
here's what I get (each action happens to have a problem to it)
1) Get specified finder items
2/3) Filter / find finder items
those are there just to work for this simple porpouse: identify that i've dropped a pdf file in the "Automator" folder
I move the PDF
The workflows starts
4) Ask for a text
this would be a prompt for me to add a comment to go to the "Spotlight Comment" section when I click on "get info"
put instead I get this...
that's the directiory that the file is in!
so I type some random text that would go to the spotlight comment section
then click OK
5) Set Spotlight Comments for Finder Items
that's the actual action, it should have the text that i've inputted in the last step, but instead it has this:
(Text is the variable that i've setted up to be shown on the ask for text and set spotlight comment...)
so, I have to manually input the comments I want to be on the file
and click continue
6) Label Finder Items
That's the action where i'm suppose to choose the label color, so I do that and click continue
this should work, but the file doesn't change label at all
nothing happens.
7) Move Finder Items
It should move to the "untitled folder", but again, it doesn't.
and that's it.
It's a PDF file, but it's not recognized by the system as a PDF.
When it is recognized, if I move more than one PDF file, the workflow works for just one PDF, instead of working for all of them!
I would reeeeally appreciate any help
the whole point in this was for me not to buy Hazel, but I think I will end up buying it :/
thanks for any help anyone can give me!

hey red_menace, thanks veeeery much for your support, I really appreciate it
as you can notice, i'm new to the automator, i'm actually new to the whole software thing, I have no idea what I'm doing so I really appreciated your help, changed my life and made my day
BUT, it didn't work...
well, it did, partially
I still don't get any comments on the "Spotlight comments" area and when I convert the workflow to a folder action, it does not recognize the file!
here's my workflow:
here's what I did, step by step:
first I added find finder's items, that worked really well, but it labeled all the finders files that were in the folder AND subfolders (the ones that were suppose to already be labeled right)
then I removed the find finder's items and tried, worked well, but I hadn't checked the "ignore the input", so the comments weren't working
so then I ignored the input on the actions that didn't require an iput, so my workflow is the same as yours now… and It's not working.
at first it worked for only 1 pdf, but no comments
then it worked for 50% of the pdfs, with comments
then it stopped working at all.
added the find finders items
worked while testing with one
saved
tried with 7 at the same time
worked… but didn't get any spotlight comments
went back on automator
checked "show this action when the workflow runs" for the spotlight comments action
added the variable as an answer on the "ask for text"
the variable ran as expected, I had the same input I've inputed as an answer for the "ask for text" on the "spotlight comments" action, label went okay and stuff, but i did not get any spotlight comment on the spotlight comment section!!
went back on automator and checked out the "append to existing comments" on "set spotlight comments for finder items"
and still didn't get any comments on the files!
btw, I went back on the automator and removed the find finder items
then tried again with only one file, dropping it in the application. it worked, but I still didn't get any spotlight comments!!
I also tried deleting the ask for text and tried just
but it did not work
I also converted the workflow that working for all expect the comments to a folder action, and it DID NOT recognize the pdf I dropped in the folder, what do I do?!

Get VM Automation Level via PowerCli

Setup:
Fully automated DRS cluster
Virtual Machine options - "Enable individual virtual machine automation levels" checked.
Most of the VMs have default automation level set
Few VMs have Disabled automation level
How can I get List of those Virtual Machines whose Automation Level is set to disabled using PowerCli? Is there any way?
Or is there any way just to get list of all VMs and their automation level using powercli?

NEW RESEARCH. HOPE IT HELPS:
Like many of us I tried valiantly to document the problems I was having then gave up cause I needed to make music and needed to be with my kids, girlfriend etc. I've gone back to hyperdraw, but for those who want to nail this puppy here are my archive notes:
Automation folder was easier to see in 6.4.3 than in 7. The manuals refer to commands that have been changed or moved since writing. Once you get them open again suggest you make a screenset for them. It does import into other songs via import settings once you set the windows up.
I was working on a twenty minute orchestral piece which played back with different levels every darn time. The way I finally solved it was study the pickup bar area of the arrange page (bar 0, bar -1 etc) and in automation event view noiced that I was seeing some phantom events that had a space before them:
I had event data for
"send 1" and then event data for
" send 1"
One of these was phantom. Deleting them made all my automation moves on that track play properly again. I then had to repeat this for every one of my 168 tracks of the piece. Since then I never used bar 0 and set all my arrange page events and folders to bar 1 not bar 0.
This was a year ago. So I cant remember (or no longer care) to open up automation folders or events anymore. But when and if you can see those folders or lists, check this anomoly out. Also check the automation folder occasionally to see that it hasn't lengthened its folder to go before bar 1 cause thats when the anomolies return (for me anyway)
Hope this helps. Good luck iSchwartz. Proud of you man for fighting a battle I gave up on.

Automator to select e-mail sender and copy text on excel

I need to use automator to select e-mail sender, extract specific text and append it on an excel sheet. is it possible?
I have OS Snow Leopard; Mail; a Master Excel 2011 file; several Output Excel 2011 files for the output
I want Automator to check daily if new mails, on a specific account, have been received that match the mail address with a given list of names and related mail address in the Master Excel.
If a new mail is present, Automator should: pick up specific text in the mail body; select and open the related Output Excel file (each output Excel file is saved with the name linked with the e-mail address in the Master Excel); append the text on the given worksheet in the Output Excel file; save the output file.
This should be done with all the received mails that match with the Master Excel file
Is it possible do this kind of thing with automator? may be with the support of VBA for some parts?
I would appreciate any suggestion or idea to resources to investigate

Hi Stephen,

Running an automator workflow w/o opening automator

Is it possible to run an automator workflow - (check addressbook for birthdays - then send a card) once a day without having to remember to open automator everyday (the whole point is I forget to do this in the first place, so I'm hoping automator can just take care of it). but I don't want to have to leave automator open all the time... I think I read something about using applescripts, but I havent played with them at all...
Thanks

Hmm, your idea sounds about right. If you created the birthday event in iCal yourself (i.e. it's not the Birthday calendar iCal provides from your Address Book), then you can add an alarm to it. In that case, you have some nice options and effects.
Since you would be adding the alarm to the birthday event, then the Automator workflow won't run every day and will only run when the birthday occurs. As for options, you can set the alarm for the event to activate at a specific time in reference to the event, e.g. the day before or perhaps around noon. (That is somewhat dependent on whether you made the event an all-day event or for a certain time, but it works either way and is pretty self evident.) You could also have it automatically occur a day late or even a week late.
As such, you might consider making the workflow be more specific. You could create a workflow specifically for that birthday, and in that case you'd just specify a person from your Address Book instead of searching it for birthdays. Just depends on how you want to approach it. Regardless, saving the workflow as plug-in in Automator will be the easy way to refer to it as an iCal alarm.
You mentioned iCal popping up reminders and that's an example of what an alarm can do if you set it that way, so you're probably familiar with them. However, you won't see that when you set the alarm to open a file (as in this case) unless you set a second alarm for the event to show a reminder. To add more alarms to the same event in iCal, you can click on the name "alarm" in the info drawer and it will give you a menu to add another alarm. You can also remove extra alarms in the same way. Wasn't sure if you knew that already.

Is Credit Check Per Line Item in Sales Order Possible?

Dear All,
Hope you all are doing well !!!
Infact i am currently implementing OPM and SCM modules for a CSD (carbonated soft drinks) industry. They have a specific requirement on Credit Management. Please look at the Requirement Below.
Credit Management Per Line on SO
Client Charges Distributors for both Liquids (Finished Product) + [Return Glass Bottles and Shells) for the First Time.
Subsequently while returning RGB(Return Glass Bottles)'s and Shell's are being given Credit memos.
CBL gives credit only on Bottles & shells but not on Liquids.
For Liquids CBL takes the Prepayment & Its Compulsory.
So the Credit limit needs to be check on the bottles and shells only.
Oracle E-Business Suite Credit Management does not work per line item for a
Particular Sales Order. It works on total Sales Order. as this is not a standard Process in Oracle how we can achieve this without customization.
Please suggest me through any workaround we can achieve this and its a show stopper for us and business critical for my client.Please help me on this regard.
Thanks & Regards,
Aditya

I'd suggest writing your own might be easier. Oracle buckets the exposure as per the list below whereas you are probably only interested in seeing a total order exposure (by line item for bottles/shells) and total AR exposure summary.
Also the standard report will look at the unit sell * the ordered quantity in calculating transaction amounts on open orders which is your problem. If I've understood your requirement correctly, you only want to consider the shells and bottles in the credit check because you enforce prepayment for liquids so presumably your AR o/s balances are only for money owing on shells and bottles.
In that case, your only real issue is at the order entry stage (again because Oracle will be considering the total transaction value if you're using the standard automated credit check) which is why I suggested the manual workaround there.

Convert to Apple TV from Drop folder with checking?

I'm trying to create a script for use on set. When rushes come off the camera I process offlines with the render software to H264 for quick viewing. I'm looking for a script that will monitor the folder these drop into and then reconvert them to apple tv and drop them in turn into another folder where air video server, serves them to ipads and iphones on set for fast reviewing of shots.
My issue so far seems to be that if my camera-raw to h264 software hits a couple of short clips (B&C) immediately after a long clip (A), then the automator quicktime action is still encoding the A when B+C are dropped into the folder. When Automator next check the folder it seems to only find the most recent clip C skipping clip B. For a while I thought I had a workaround by telling it to pass finder items created in the last 1 day, but that too seems to have stopped working.
If anyone that better understands the finder / quicktime elements of automator could help me on this it would be most appreciated as I really do need to find a robust workflow that can for example check the number of items in the input folder against output folder and automatically encode anything missing.
I hope i've explained what it is I'm doing clearly but feel free to ask any questions.

Automator not working after upgrade to Yosemite

I created a fairly simple Folder Action within Automator in Mavericks that went like this;
1) Receive file in Folder e.g Folder 1
2) Move file from Folder 1 to Folder 2
3) Label file Red
Now I cannot get anything to work in Automator since upgrading to Yosemite, I've tried rewriting it as a new workflow, and even creating new simple ones such as move file from a to b, and nothing is working.
If I run it from within Automator, it works fine, but doesn't do it automatically outside of Automator.
Has anyone else had this problem? So far, for this and a number of other reasons Yosemite is nothing but a waste of time.

The same problem here.
I tried do the same as you but it looks like the Automator don't "check" defined folder and therefore don't start. Accessibility for Automator is checked.
My workflow file:
Get Folder Contents
Filter Finder Items
Move Finder Items

How to expose to test automation dynamically generated third party component

We need to expose to test automation extended check box (which is not our component), that is dynamically generated and works together with tree.
So, our application contains the following code:
import org.sepy.ui.CheckBoxExtended;
checkBox = new CheckBoxExtended();
Then all properties of check boxes are set dynamically.
These check boxes are used with the tree, to select any of its nodes.
When using test automation tool (we are evaluating RiaTest), automation tool agent sees the tree, but it does not see checkboxes, and therefore selection of tree node cannot be automated.
Is there any way to make automation tool agent see this check box? There is a procedure for instrumenting custom components, but this is like third party component.
Thanks,
Miroslaw

I am beginning to think that there is no solution to my problem. Let me better define the problem:
1. Automation tool does not see extended check box.
2. The container of extended check box is standard tree (nothing to instrument).
3. Extended check box is third party component which was derived from standard button, and not standard check box (theoretically nothing to instrument again).
4. Extended check box was used in item renderer class of the tree.
Maybe elements used in item renderers cannot be exposed to automation tools (I have tried FlexMonkey and RiaTest, but they both failed)?

I can't save spell check

How do I save auto-spell check as I work on a document on Pages '09?
I have been attempting to save automated spell check on Pages '09.
I go to Inspector and click to English from None, but when I move the cursor to the document, it reverts to None.

The language setting in the More pane of the Text Inspector, like all Inspector settings, applies only to the Document in which it is set.
If Save that document as a Template, any new document made using that Template will open with the same language setting.

How long does it take to replace a cable?

I reported a problem (no dial tone) on Friday 22 July 2011, the automated line check showed a fault at the exchange. On Monday 25 July 2011 I received a phone call from BT saying the problem was fixed. I have a dial tone so think that's the end of the problem.
On Wednesday 27 July 2011 a BT engineer arrives saying there is still a problem with the line, I let him investigate and he traces the fault to the line between the cabinet and my house. He says an underground engineer will be needed to trace the exact problem, later that day the underground engineer arrives and traces the problem to just outside my driveway, where a fault had been fixed in October 2008. A hole will need to be dug to fix the problem, it would be Friday before this could be done.
Fine my line and broadband are actually working OK. So the delay is not an issue.
Friday the 29 July 2011, the hole is dug and an engineer comes arrives, the patch from 2008 is letting water in and has damaged the cable, the cable from the hole to the feed in point (grid) needs replacing. The cable is currently not in a duct just directly in the ground so a duct needs to be fitted for the replacement cable. Engineer leaves the cables with plastic bags on the ends and one with a label presumably saying it needs replacing.
I now have no phone and therefore no broadband.
Nothing further happens until Thursday 4 August 2011, when workmen arrive but they don't start installing the duct they just fill in the hole.
I contact BT and they assure me after speaking to the engineers that the problem will be fixed on Monday, I will have a working phone line on Monday.
Monday 8 August 2011, no workmen, no engineer, no contact from BT. The BT.com/faults page has not been updated since 29 July 2011. I contact BT and they can tell me nothing, they need to speak to a 'higher authority' tomorrow. They have promised to phone first thing tomorrow but I won't hold my breath.
I realise the promise on the 4 August said Monday not Monday 8 August so which Monday did they mean?.
From a lack of dial tone which is fixed in one working day, I am left with no phone for over a week and no idea when (if?) it will be fixed.
BT is a communications company that has forgotten how to communicate.

Hi there could be a multitude of reasons for a delay as a duct has to be layed that could mean road/footpath closures which need local authority permission also the trench work will be carried out by contractors then new cables laid then openreach back to make connections all this unfortunately can and does take time
