Can a quote be created without defining a Customer?

We wish to activate the Quotations process in SAP, but one of our business requirements (and I'm sure it is the same of many companies), is that the Quote can be created without having to create a Customer Master before hand.
Our company receives hundreds of Quote requests from potential customers, but not always make the sale.
We do not want to have to create a new customer master, just in order to create a Quotation for a potential customer. If we had to do this, we would have hundreds of "Customers" on the master that we never made a sale to for example ... and we don't want to clog up the Customer master file with this information.
Is there a way that we could just type in the potential customer's name and address information into the Quote and send it out to the customer for approval.
If they accept the quote and it is time to create a sales order, then at that time we would create the Sold-To Customer Master.
Any insight into this delima would be appreciated.
Scott.

"Since it is not posible to enter a order type without a customer, what you can do is to create a dummy customer master(along with ship-to).
When the customer asks for a quote, enter the dummy customer & create the quotation.
Pls note that in a quotation you specify for what price you guve the materials to the customers & other applicable discounts. It has a validity period.
If you are sure that you are going to quote the same price & other details to all the customers, then you can use this dummy customer master.
Regards,
Sivanand"
I was thinking of something along those lines, something like a customer number OTUS (One Time US), or OTDE (One time Germany), with minimal information assigned to Customer Account Group "CPD". Then the person entering in the information could go to the Sold-To partner and change the name and address info.
Since the products we sell usually start in the $10,000 range on up, each potential customer can have any sort of specialize pricing. For these "One Time" customers we would have the regular Material price automatically default in (PR00) at just the material level, then any discounts would be applied manually.
I'm going to give this a shot and see what happens.
Thanks for the info.

Can a prompt be created without any reference column?

Hi,
here is my requirement..
Prompts:
======
Tested in ==> should display 3 values as date1, date2, date1&date2 in a dropdown. This column is not available in any of the tables. I have to hard code it.
test Date1 ==> calender prompt
test Date2 ==> calender prompt
columns :
======
product
test date1
test date2
When I Select date1 in tested in prompt, the report should display values only for date1 and not date2. Likewise when date2 is selected in tested in prompt, the report should display values only for date2 and not date1. And when date1&date2 is selected the report should display records containing both date1 and date2.
The date columns are present in my fact table. It contains 48 million records. I have created tested in column in the BMM layer. when i pulled the same in dashboard prompt, its taking much time and the server goes down after some time.
If anyone has come across such requirement please let me know the approach
Thanks.

Returning table without defining structure

Hello, I'm back again, finally I can work with general tables without defining structures but now I found a problem, I want introduce the modified fields into a table for returning it, but the question is that this table hasn't the structure definition because is for general purpose so I need return it a then work with it.
I was looking for a solution here and into the sap help but I'm not able to find the solution.
How can I work with the fields (field1-a = xxxxx)?
This one is my code:
DATA: itab_spfli TYPE spfli OCCURS 0 WITH HEADER LINE,
 itab1_spfli LIKE itab_spfli OCCURS 0 WITH HEADER LINE,
 wa_spfli LIKE spfli.
SELECT * INTO wa_spfli FROM spfli.
APPEND wa_spfli TO itab_spfli.
ENDSELECT.
PERFORM read_table TABLES itab_spfli[] USING 'ITAB_SPFLI[]'.
LOOP AT itab1_spfli INTO wa_spfli.
WRITE: / wa_spfli-carrid.
ENDLOOP.
*& Form read_table
text
-->P_TABLA text
FORM read_table TABLES pe_itspfli USING ti.
FIELD-SYMBOLS: <f1> TYPE STANDARD TABLE,
 <f2> TYPE ANY,
 <f3> TYPE ANY.
DATA tabla(20).
tabla = ti.
CONDENSE tabla NO-GAPS.
ASSIGN (tabla) TO <f1>[].
Get data into table
LOOP AT <f1> ASSIGNING <f2>.
 WHILE sy-subrc = 0.
 ASSIGN COMPONENT sy-index OF STRUCTURE <f2> TO <f3>.
 ENDWHILE.
Working with table
 APPEND <f2> TO itab1_spfli.
ENDLOOP.
ENDFORM. " read_table
Thank You Very Much In Advance.

Hi Jose
ASSIGN COMPONENT sy-index OF STRUCTURE <f2> TO <f3>.
<f3> = <new value>.
This will change the value in the internal table automatically.
Hope this is what you are asking.

How can I verify an apple id already created without attaching a credit card?

how can I verify an apple id already created without attaching a credit card?

Why do you need to verify it? Have you received an email telling you to click a link to do so? - if so it's very possible that it's a scam designed to trick you into entering your credit card details. If you have received such an email don't follow any links in it. If it's not addressed to you by name it's unlikely to be from Apple.
You could copy and paste the email into a post here so that we can have a look at it - remove your own email address when you do this.
If there is some other reason you want to verify the ID please give more details.

Can a 1099 be manually created without reference to an AP Document ?

Our AP department cut a cheque against a vendor id which included the names of two vendors in the description. They added the second name to the existing vendor in order to meet a requirement that the settlement cheque be made out to both parties.
E.G.:> Vendor 100 = John Dow & Jane Smith. The tax-id/SSN for vendor 100 belongs to John Dow.
A seperate vendor code exists for attorney Jane Smith. E.G.> Vendor 200 = Jane Smith. And the tax-id/SSN for vendor 200 belongs to Jane Smith.
We can generate the 1099 for this payment document which references vendor 100 and John Dow's tax-id. Can another 1099 be created against the same payment for vendor 200? And/or is there a manual way to create a 1099 without reference to an AP document?

The solution we used to create a second 1099 was as follows:
1: Post an AP item to the 2nd Vendor for the amount that you want to report - FB60.
-Credit Vendor Account
-Debit Any account to clear with - We used petty cash
2: Use the F-51 to Clear
-Doc type ZV
-Credit: The account you used to clear with
-Debit: Select the open item for the vendor
This will give you a payment document for the vendor for the amount you wish, but nothing paid to the vendor.

Creating print files that clients can modify in the future without using Indesign

If I create a print/design piece for clients in Indesign CS3 is there a file format I can give them that they can modify in the future without coming back to me to modify it for them? Essentially build them a design template which they can use for another program such as word / publisher / something like that?
Yes, publisher is gross...I know, i know, i cringed a little too...

I'm with David on this one. If you can charge the client for making changes to a project you already created, why not do so? If the client has ASKED you for an "editable" format of the project so they can "save money" by making their own edits, they're cheating you.
In a nutshell, if a client wants to edit a project, as Rodney mentioned, they'll need to pony up and purchase the required software, and THEN learn how to use it--nothing is free, right?
Also be aware that by giving a client access to your production files, you are setting yourself up for the possibility of many phone calls "asking" how to do this or that in the files. Unless you also plan on adding a cost update for program tutorials, I wouldn't even think of it.
Another thing to consider is this; once you turn over any production files, you may also be blamed for "corrupt files" when the client takes those files (edited or not) to an unknown printer who may tell the client, "I can't use these files". The client will then call you in frustration, exclaiming "The files you sent me are bad! The printer can't use them. You have to fix this right away." At this point, your best option is to add a disclaimer such as a READ-ME file on the disk, that states you aren't responsible for the quality of output of any files which you do not maintain final production control.
Remember: we (as designers, printers, etc.) are in business to make money doing a job that a client doesn't know how to do. That's what business is all about. Just because a client might want to "save money" by doing it themselves doesn't mean you have to "train" them to do it without charging for that service, as well. In my business, I have an actual cost update item entry called "Software Assistance and Training", and we charge $180 per hour or fraction thereof to walk clients through editing a document we created, if they insist on requesting the project files from us. It makes sure we get paid for the time spent on all projects, even if it means spending an hour on the phone to "walk" a client through the steps of using the program. And finally: A client that doesn't want to pay for your services is a client any profitable business doesn't need.
Just something to think about...

You are trying to find a loophole to circumvent a basic rule that prohibits the transfer of purchased content from one Apple ID to another.
Content tied to an Apple ID are bound to that Apple ID forever. You can not merge or trade accounts. Well, not (officially) anyway...

1. If settings for automatic PO is on, yes its possible when you create GR, Po gets created automatically, or you do GR against other with movement type 501 which is without PO.
2. If you use P, then you need to enter WBS element. You can use U in combination with D = service, then you enter wbs at service entry time.

How can I indent a paragraph WITHOUT creating spaces above or beneath?

I am using Dreamweaver CS3 on a G5 Macintosh running OS
10.5.5.
I selected a new HTML document (Dreamweaver opened it as a
CSS) and pasted text from a MS Word document.
When I "Indent" ALL of the text everything stays the same
except that it is ALL indented.
BUT when I "Indent" only one paragraph then that paragraph is
not only indented BUT there ALSO appears an extra space before and
an extra space after that paragraph.
What this is doing is inserting <blockquote> before and
after the paragraph.
How can I "indent" a paragraph without any spaces appearing
before or after the paragraph?
Also can this be easily done from the Design page?
I tried inserting a tag by pressing the "tag" button on the
keyboard but that did the same thing as using the "indent" function
(i.e. also inserted spaces before & after the paragraph).
BTW: I am a novice, so please try to make it as simple as
possible.

When you paste from Word, you often get line breaks instead
of paragraphs.
I think that's the problem.
Instead of this -
this is a paragraph
this is a paragraph
this is a paragraph
this is a paragraph
you get this -
this is a paragraph 
this is a paragraph 
this is a paragraph 
this is a paragraph
In which case the symptoms are completely understandable.

How To Calculate the % business without Defining Structure

Hi Experts,
Report Requirement is displaying the Customer Number, Business Value, % Business
%Business = (customer business * 100) / Total Business Value.
Report Output sholud Looks
CNO   Business   Business in %
C1        100               50%
C2         50                25%
C3         50                25%
How can we achive This without defining the Structure(because we have lot of Records) or VB macro coding.
Thanks
Chandra

Hi,
U neednt create any structure. The CNO u can keep in rows. Business in columns. and right click and create a new formula as
( business * 100 ) / SUMGT(business)
This is multiply the value in business for that particular row by 100 and then divide it with the overall sum of business.
Hoep it helps

Rathy
