Automated Realignment for DP

I have a process chain that loads my Shipping History and Inventory monthly. One of the steps of this process is to realign my products from old to new (and obsoleted). This works fine but each time I run the process chain the records in the realignment table are set the status to processed ("X").
Is there a way to not have these records maked as processed (remain status " ") or a way to reset the status in another process chain step back to " ". I would like them to be applied the next month automatically when the load runs again without someone having to remember to go in and set them back tr "ready".
Any thoughts or comments on how to do this or alternate ways would be great! many thanks!

Hi Tim and all,
were you successful in Realignment.
we have a similar situation -
Old Product gets phased out & replaced by other product; both have history
now in this we are trying to use Realignment - copy function to add the values from the Old product to the new product after the forecast run with a certain percentage.
but the problem with the copy function is that , it can only calculate the number of months we define in the "period" but cannot use "copy Factor" for each month.
For eg:
Month 1 - i want to copy 15% of product A to Product B ( Statfcst)
Month 2 - i want to copy 30% of prouct A to Product B (statfcst)
like this for may be 5 or 6 months.
After which i run the phase in profile where it calculates the history from both Product A and B to calculate the Statfcst.
Is there any BADIs avaialble or Have you succeeded in implementing a custom solution?
Hoping to find a solution.
Regards,
Rorie

How to prevent BPC from automated calculating for hierarchies / nodes?

Hi experts,
I am looking for a practicable way to prevent the system from automated calculating for hierarchies, and especially for nodes within hierarchies?
Let's say, I have ENTITIES (AS A HIERACHY) in rows and ACCOUNTS in COLUMNS. Now I want the system to block adding up the values for one specific account on node XY. Instead of the sum of all base member entities, the cell for account XY should be left empty.
Is there a practicable way to deal with this?

Hi Stefan,
you can prevent the system to calculate a node by editing the Formula Property in the Dimension.
You can insert 0 or null to the Formula field for the specific element.
But in this case the values from your leaf elements lying under your node wont be calculated even in higher hierarchy nodes.
For ex.: with the following structure
-A
---A1
A11
A12
---B1
B11
B12
If you set A1 to 0, the top node A will only be calculated by values of B1

Hi! How do I switch existing automation data for one parameter to another?

Hello! I am new to Logic 8, and actually to using the Logic automation feature. Here is the deal: I have some old-school Logic event data that I recorded as a kind of automation (before the current kind of dedicated automation) for an EXS24 parameter. I need to change this event 'automation' to actual Logic automation, as Logic 8 does not read it (as Logic 7 did before it). So, I highlighted all of the events in my old-school 'automation' region in the event list. I had to change the number value to a common number assignment so that I could Change Selected Event Data into Track Automation. I selected volume (number seven, I believe), and than highlighted all events, clicked on the event region, than went to options and selected my desired automation transformation destination (say that three times fast). Great! I have my region as automation! Logic 8 knows what to do with this! But, it is volume. I need it to control the LFO 2 Rate of the EXS24. Problem is, that when I switch the automation parameter from Volume to LFO 2 Rate, the automation disappears. It seems as though that automation data is only for Volume. So, how might a charming gentleman, such as myself, go about keeping/converting the same automation, but for the parameter I want to change it to?
Thanks! =)

Hold "command" when switching between automation parameters.
Then you will get a dialog offering you the option to convert the existing parameter's data into the destination parameter, or "copy and convert" (which does the same but leaves the existing volume automation data intact.)

Help Needed: Automator Applescript for Folder Action - Encode Video

Hi !
I have created an Automator Applescript for a Folder Action to do the following:
When a new video file is moved to the target folder (i.e. Download of Vuze is done), automatically launch the Applescript Action that does the followin g(Applescripted):
1) Using "run shell script" and FFMPEG on a UNIX command line, determine Width/Height, Framerate, Bitrate
2) Calculate encoding parameters (slightly reduced bitrate, reduced Aspect etc.)
3) Using "run shell script" with ffmpeg on the command line and the calculated parameters to encode the video file
At the same time, the action is written to a log file so I know if a file is recognized, when encoding started etc.
It works fine if I save this Action as an .app, make an alias on the Desktop and drop video files on it.
It also works fine if I attach the script to a folder as a folder action and drag a video file in there.
However, when I attach the script as a folder action to the Vuze download folder, it encodes only some video files, i.e. if there was a download of 5 files, chances are good that it will not encode 1 or 2 files out of those 5.
If for example a second download finishes while the encoding for the first download is still going on, sometimes the second file starts encoding after the first encode finishes, sometimes it does not, the file does not make the log file at all, i.e. the folder action missed it or the automator action dropped it because it was still encoding. Still, sometimes it happens, sometimes not.
As I need a solution that is 100% accurate, I would like to ask if there are any ideas on how to do this better maybe? As I am not an Applescript Guru, I would need some help to know what works and what doesn't and what the syntax is.
My main idea right now:
Similar to how ffmpegX works with its "process" application, have a second script (as .app) that receives the files to be encoded from the automator action and puts them in a queue, then proceeds to encode this queue while the main automator action is free to receive the next file.
Writing this second app is quite straightforward (a modified version of my current script) but I have some questions I need help with:
1) How do I call another applescript from within an existing applescript that launches the new applescript in a new process?
2) How do I pass parameters to this new applescript?
3) In case of this "Queueing" Idea, once I called the external applescript the first time, how do I make sure when I call next time, that I don't open a second instance of this script but rather pass another queue item to the original instance to be processed?
Or in general: Is there a better way to achieve this automatic encoding solution that I have not thought about?
Alternatively:
Does anyone know how to call the "process" application that comes with the ffmpegX package with the correct parameters to use as a queueing / processing tool?
Thanks!

To do this, I created an Automator workflow with an Applescript snippet to change the 'media kind'.
Here is the 'Run Applescript' workflow step code:
on run {input, parameters}
          tell application "iTunes"
                    set video kind of (item 1 of input) to movie
          end tell
          return input
end run
Prior to this running, I have an 'Import Files into iTunes' workflow step.
You can switch out 'movie' with: 'TV show', 'music video', or anything in ITLibMediaItemMediaKind.
Good luck,
Glenn

Automation testing for sap bw backend

Hello Gurus,

Many thaniks

Hi,
If you are looking about data reconcolization or Data testing between ECC and BW then I already given solution in your previous thread. i.e. Who will involve in UAT thread.
Automation testing for sap bw backend: What testing?. We don't have such kind of concept, for Java, VB etc applications they will test all fields and code, but we don't have automation testing for sap bw backend.

Hi There,
I have been using flex automation plugin for a while which comes with Flex Builder 3.0. Where it is mentioned that flex only supports automation with IE browser. Is the same comment applicable with Flas Builder 4 automation plugin. or is it supporting other browsers other than IE from Flash Builder 4 like Firefox.
Thanks,

What can Automator do for me?

Can anyone give me specific examples of useful things the Automator does for you? The concept intrigues me, but I cannot figure out how it can help me.

Tyra,
There are quite a few things you can do with Automator. For example, if you had 250 pictures in a folder that all needed the same color setting applied to it, you could build a script that did it all at one time.
Or maybe you'd like to rename a mass amount of files to a generic name like Document_1.doc, Document_2.doc, etc.
Automator essentially allows us to do things that would be very repetitive to do otherwise.

Coded UI automation support for MIcrosoft Dynamic CRM 2013

Hi,
I have been checking for a UI automation tool for Microsoft Dynamic CRM 2013. Even though it is mentioned as coded UI fully supports Dynamic CRM, I was not able to automate CRM with VS2013, VS2015 Preview. Please reply if you have any workaround to make
it possible to automate UI testing of CRM 2013 using coded UI.
Regards,
Vinu chandran.

Hi Vinu,
According to your description,
could you please tell me what version of VS you use to test your coded UI test?
In addition, I did some search and don’t find any information about CRM2013 support for Coded UI test.
Based on this article:
Supported Configurations and Platforms for Coded UI Tests and Action
Recordings, Dynamics CRM web client is fully supported. Even though I am not sure whether it includes CRM2013, I suggest you should use VS to drag the crosshair
on the control to check the control can be identified by Coded UI Test.
In addition, since the issue is related to the Microsoft Dynamic CRM, I suggest you can ask the issue to
Microsoft Dynamic
CRM forum, may be you will get better support.
As you said that you are not able to automate coded UI test with VS2015 Preview, because VS2015 Preview is still a preview version
instead of final released version, I suggest that you should submit this feedback to Microsoft Connect feedback portal:
http://connect.microsoft.com/VisualStudio/feedback/CreateFeedback.aspx,
Microsoft engineers will evaluate them seriously.
After you submit the feedback, you can post the link here which will be beneficial for other members with the
similar issue.
Thanks for your understanding.

Can I know the automation object for firefox like "InternetExplorer.Application" for IE?

Can I know the automation object for firefox like "InternetExplorer.Application" for IE?

Firefox is not a COM-based application, so there is no equivalent. Over the years, different approaches have been offered for automating or embedding Firefox. The current one is [https://developer.mozilla.org/en/XULRunner XULRunner].

CUP 5.3: Automated Provisioning for UME Roles

Hi,
Does CUP 5.3 provide automated provisioning for UME roles or just for R/3 roles?
Thanks in advance. Best regards,
Imanol

In order to use UME provisioning though, the WebAS must have Portal components installed (not necessarily used). The Portal RTA uses the Portal's SPML interface that is installed with portal components.
And please make sure to check the PAM - I think the Portal RTA only works for 7.00, if I'm not mistaken!

RE: Test automation tools for Forte applications

Mark,
There is a basic automated testing program already

AutoTest.Pex. It records events and can replay them.
It can be a bit tricky and is a bit basic, but
may have some of the functionality that you want.
This is specifically for window / widget testing.
Hope this helps,

There is also TestComplete by AutomatedQA but it is of
limited usage because it is not mx.automation aware and in many
difficult cases reverts to dumb mouse X,Y recording.
And there is the upcoming RIATest that will be specifically
designed for Flex using mx.automation. Here is the site:

Automator Actions for Photos

As you may know, Apple has not (yet, anyway) included any Automator actions for the new Photos app. However, there is a set available from the Mac OS X Automation web site that some may find useful, & there may be others available from other third party sources too.
If you are interested in such things, the Mac OS X Automation web site is a good place to start -- not only can you download the action set, the site includes descriptions & example workflows that should make it easy to see how they can be used.
If anybody knows of any other third party sets for Photos, I would appreciate it if you would post a reply about them here.
TIA!

That's pretty cool! Thanks!
Any idea why I might be getting the following output from my Get XML action? I am using the exact same information (shared secret, Admin credential, and Site URL) as for the other actions (that work just fine)...
