Buddies with multiple accounts on iChat/Messages

Ok, this seems like it should be an easy one, but I can't seem to figure it out. There are a few buddies that have two or three accounts. For instance, my sister has a gChat and AIM account. iChat/Messages groups both accounts into one (which is a really nice space-saving feature), but when I double-click on her name to chat, iChat automatically picks one for me (usually AIM).
Is it possible to choose which service you want to use to chat to someone with more than one account? It should be a lot more intuitive, but I just can't seem to figure it out. Anyone know?
Thanks in advance.

Hi,
Once you have the Chat window Open go to the "To" spot.
Her name will be a drop down and offer her other "names" and your "From" options (it is possible that not all combinations will work.).

  • Buddies with multiple IDs: how to message to a specific one?

    Here's a relatively simple problem, on the face of it, that I can't figure out how to solve. Is there in fact a solution?
    I have an increasing number of buddies with multiple IDs (almost always AIM), for instance, one for home and one for work. Because most of them have broadband in both places, they don't shut their computers down in either location and are usually signed in to iChat/AIM in both. I've got their various IDs noted in their cards in Address Book, but in iChat I only see one entry for the person regardless of which ID, or both, is signed in at the moment. There doesn't seem to be much logic to which picture iChat displays along with the entry, so I can't ever tell which ID I am looking at. I know that a mouseover on the iChat entry will tell me the status of all IDs associated with that person, but how can I send a message to the ID that I want?
    Example: buddy is at work and signed in using work ID. Buddy's spouse is at home, also signed in, using home ID. I see one entry for my buddy, showing as active. It might display the home picture and it might display the work picture. If it's the home ID, and open a message window, I'll be messaging with the spouse at home, instead of with my buddy at work -- and I don't see any way to get at the other ID. Is there a way to pick the ID I want to message with?
    I see that I can keep them separate if I create different groups and add each ID, from the same card, to each group. But that's clumsy (as is creating separate cards altogether) and basically removes the meaningfulness of the groups. Is there some obvious trick I am missing, or is what I want to do just not possible?

    Hi Ralph,
    You're exactly right; I need to do the opposite. I suspect it just isn't possible or the solution would be more self-evident. As I mentioned in my original post, the only way I've been able to make it work is to add the IDs separately in iChat and make sure they are added to different groups. Doing this will keep them separate but based on the same Address Book card. In the same group, however, they collapse into one entry and lose their meaning. Unfortunately, keeping separate groups for such a purpose makes the groups essentially meaningless.
    As I would imagine this to be an increasingly common occurrence, this seems to be a definite shortcoming of iChat.
    Thanks for your response.

  • Error creating a contract with multiple account assignments

    Hallo,
    I have created a PO agreement with a single account assignment on tr - ME31K.
    If I open this agreement and open the account assignments for an item I'm able to press the "Change display" button. In the screen which is showed I'm able to set the distribution to set the distribution to 1 - Distribution on quantity basis. If I do so I get the following error message: " Enter Acc. ***. Block". The only thing I could do is set this indicator!. But when I set this indicator this indicator is resettled and the message appears again.
    The thing I want to do is that it is possible to create a contract whit multiple account assignments.
    Could any one say what is missing or what is wrong?
    My SAP version is 47x110 SR1.
    Kind regards,
    Richard MeijnError creating a contract with multiple account assignments

    Rahul,
    The reason why I created a contract with a single Account Assignment is that it was not possible to save the document.
    So I created a document for my example and want to change it to a multiple Account assignment. So I did the steps as described.
    After adding a extra account line and pressing Enter I get the error message as described: "Enter Acc. ***. Block".
    There must be a setting wring in the IMG but I don't know which one?
    I have looked ad transaction "OME9" but couldn't see the cause.
    Kind Regards,
    Richard Meijn

  • Software updates won't install with multiple accounts

    I'm using an iMac with multiple accounts.  When I go to update software, the box comes up and lists the updates. Great.  When I click install, it says it must restart in order to install the updates. Fine.  But after it restarts it goes to the login page, and once I login, it seems to forget that it's in the midst of an install. I've tried this many times, from many other accounts.
    How can I get it to follow through with the updates without getting stuck at the login page?
    Thanks

    Are the apps installed in the main Applications folder or in each User's Applications folder? Apps installed in the root folder will be available for each user. Apps  installed in a User's Applications folder is individual to that User. You can drag these apps to the root Applications folder for easy updating.

  • HT5361 Why is that when I am composing a new message do I end up with multiple versions of my message I am composing up in my Google Trash mailbox?  How can I stop this from happening?

    Why is that when I am composing a new message do I end up with multiple versions of my message I am composing up in my Google Trash mailbox?  How can I stop this from happening?

    It was very hard to see what the box says because the message displays for less than one second. However, I was able to record it with my iphone and pause it until I got a shot of the message. The box says the following:
    "Do you want the application “java” to accept incoming network connections?
    Clicking deny may limit the application’s behavior. This setting can be changed in the Firewall pane of Security preferences."
    I did make some changes. I will see if it works.
    Thank you!!!

  • PO with multiple account assignments - non valuated / valuated GR

    Hi Experts,
    If I create a PO for goods with multiple account assignments the GR will not be valuated, but if I do the same for a service PO the GR will be valuated.
    What is the reason for this?
    Thanks in advance,
    Francisco Melo

    Hi,
    There is more of a qualitative response to the issue, rather than quantitative, If you go through SAP Note 204252 for GR of material it says that: "We have not implemented this function since users who post goods receipts would have to determine the distribution to individual account assignment items during partial deliveries. Generally, users cannot or should not determine this.
    An automatic distribution also causes problems and is also not implemented due to technical reasons".
    Means basically here a stores guy is doing GR and he maynot be competent enough to decide on the Account assignment front.
    However in general the service entry sheet is filled by departments who have got the work done, and are aware of the account assignment for that work.
    Hope this is helpful for you.
    Regards

  • GR Non-Valuated  with multiple account assignment

    Hi, gurus;
    some knows a user exit or badi that is used to undercheck the flag GR Non-valuated when PO with multiple account assignment is created (ME21N) ? It can have some consequence in later invoice verification?
    Thanks in advance
    R.Z.

    gr non valuated is done in case ur procuring the material for direct consumption so at the time of gr no posting to accounts occur but at the time of invoice recipet the system debits the g/l account and crdits the vendor account 
    this multiple account ***. is also necessary to mark with gr non valuated and gr check box so that u can change the account assignment at the time of invoice and that acc. assg. should also be changebale in backend .

  • Valuated GR with Multiple Account Assignment

    Hi SAP Experts!
    I would want to know the logic behind always using a Non-valuated GRs with Multiple Account Assignments.
    I am asking this because we would want to make use of the budget checking during GRs. More specifically, whenever there is a GR, the committed budget will move to the actual budget. In our business practice, more often than not, the invoice is entered much later than the GR. This would mean that the amount of the purchase will remain in the committed state even if the goods have already been received.
    Is there a way to work around this in SAP? Or is this the only way that it does this?
    Hope to hear from you guys soon. Thanks in advance.

    Hi,
    I am sorry but the basic process is that you cannopt have a valuated receipt for a line with multiple account assignments.
    An alternative (albeit a not very good one) is to just use separate lines on the PO instead of multiple account assignment.
    this may not be any help, but I doubt if there are any user-friendly alternatives.

  • Partial invoice with multiple account assignment

    I'm using PO with multiple account assignment with distribution by percentage and proportional distribution for partial invoice.
    When i post invoice verification for this kind of orders the amount and quantity field in PO item are closed for update and no automatic proportional distribution has been performed.
    The only possibility to update amount in case of partial invoice is to update amount of each account assignment manually (using account assignment button).
    Why the amount and quantity fields are closed for update?
    How i can post partial invoice for multiple account assignment order without manual distribution of changed amounts among different account assignments items?
    Thanks in advance.

    Thanks Charlie.
    I am aware of that. But do we have that "partial invoice" field where we can select teh distribution as proportionate or sequence.
    My POs item are having around 30 to 45 account assignments. In that case it is not possible to manual distribute the amount.
    Please advise.
    Thanks,

  • Services with multiple account assignment.

    Hi all,
    How can I find out the POs which are having the multiple account assignment for the service line items from tables ?
    I am looking for services with multiple account assignments
    Regards

    Hi
    Go to SE16 , give table name -EKPO
    Now if you have purchase order nos with you then copy paste the PO numbers here , or select company code or site to restrict your entries. It will control the performance of the data execution.
    Then execute this (remove max no 200 ) . Go to Settings-- Format List -- Choose fields. Deselect all and select fields as per your requirement.If field names are coming in technical names you can change this via settings--User parameter and select -Field Label.
    You can extract this report to excel as well. Same PO number with all account assignment category.
    Please note if you have high volume of data then extract all the POs under service orders first from EKKO table and copy all the service PO numbers availbvale and paste in table EKPO, it will increase performance as well.
    Cheers

  • Limti PO with Multiple account assignment Problem

    Hi,
    Can we create limit PO with Multiple account assignment.
    If yes, i have issue with commitment distribution for all the account assignment. when i post service entry sheet the value is posting for only first one cost centre/Order but not all.
    So in the purchase order for the remaining account assignment commitment remain left.
    Reagrds,
    JM

    Hi Summer,
    We have implemented SAP Note 1165524 for multiple account assignment as suggested, and it is working fine for New POs.
    But we have old Purchase order which still have wrong commitment, and GR and IR are already posted for this PO, we have to reduce the commitment to Zero.
    there is one solution for this is set  'No further Invoice expected' check box selected in this PO, but in our case PO  went into error in process after doing this.
    Please help me to reduce commitment to zero for this old PO
    Thanks in advance

  • PO Error in Process with Multiple account assignment

    Hi ,
    I am working with Extended Classsic scenario.
    Problem is with PO with Multiple account assignement.
    There is only one user who is getting problem with one particular account assignement "CCC" - Cost Center RP.. . When PO gets created with this particular AAC , it goes into "Error in process" only for one user.
    In RZ20 it shows messsage as "Please enter quantity or percentage for account assignment" & "Distr. ind. and partial invoice ind. must be set f or multi acct. assgt.".
    On other hand , other users are able to order the PO with the same AAC without any error.
    What could be the reason behind this only for one user ?
    Regards,
    Sheetal

    Hi ,
    I have checked it intially and both are identical.
    Initialy the problem was, user had entered 128 times AA line items  ( added & deleted ) in the PO while in the SC it was having only 64.... Our system accepts line items till 99 , so i asked him to delete the items above 99 ..
    So after that POs error has gone and it went for approval..
    But after approval it again went into error in process

    Please explain.

    Hi,
    It is possible to create PO with multiple account assignment,but you will not get accounting document at the time of GR.it will happen at the time of MIRO,as i have allready explained.
    If you will create PO with multiple account assignment for Services,System will generate Accounting document at the time of GR.
    I hope it will clerify.
