Hi VP,
I am forwarding through Workflow..
I got the output by using FM (with example)
call function 'STRING_UPPER_LOWER_CASE'
         exporting
           delimiter       ='_'
           string1         = note

departure point : YYYY and destination location is : AAAA
if material goes from XXXX then frieght charged is one rate.
if material goies from YYYY then frieght charged is one rate.
can any body suggest me
how many routes we have to configre
how we can maintain only one route which appears automatically in sales order and delivery level.

Route Determination
· Route may consist of different stages and different transportation connection
points or legs.
· The material can be transported from source to destination by using different
modes of transports with different shipment types.
· Route can be determined for a line item in the sales order.
· Route can be re-determined at delivery document header level by taking u201CWeight
Groupu201D into consideration.
· Each line item in the sales document will have its own route, each line item route
will be copied to delivery document header.

Sherlock Holmes' Needed for the Case of the Kidnapped iPad

My cousin's iPad II is wifi only with IOS 6 installed. It goes missing from a grocery cart while she's on holiday on the Oregon Coast. She calls me. I check Find Friends on my iPhone and the app can't locate the device. I sign on to Find My iPhone using my cousin's Apple ID. Her iPad is listed but shows as offline. I put it in Lost Mode, lock the keypad, and enter a message with my phone number.
The next morning i check Find Friends and again the iPad can't be located. Next I check Find My iPhone which now indicates 'No Devices'. I'm not positive what exactly this status change means.
That afternoon I check again. Find My iPhone is the same (No Devices) but now Find My Friend shows the iPad under my cousin's Apple ID is residing in an apartment complex in Salem, OR; 1 hour away from the last known location. It has been there for the last 3 days.
By this chain of events, should I be able to understand what's happened (cause I don't). Here's what has me puzzled:
Is the screen lock command from Find-My-iPhone still working? I'm doubtful. If it did work then my cousin's iPad is a) living in an apartment with an unsecured access point and the gadgetnappers are charging a device they can't use.
If the lock is not still working but it did initially work?. If the answer is to this is yes then what happened? The gadgetnappers reset the device and reloaded IOS software? From their Mac? From their own AppleID? And if the device was reset/reloaded then what accounts for my cousin's AppleID still being associated with the FInd My Friends app and iMessage App (I've sent it messages and they show delivered)
If the lock never worked, why not? Wouldn't Lost Mode identify the device as soon as the iPad touched the Internet?
Why are those gadegetnappers ignoring my messages?
I'm not gonna try and rescue the thing. The neighborhood is decidedly low rent but looks safe (wind chimes and beer coolers on the balconies) and one of the tenants happened to be sitting on the front steps the day the Google Truck drove by and she looked friendly. Still, ya never now when it comes to gadget nappers. Mostly, i'm just curious - about what the apps are trying to tell me
I'm not smart enough to piece this together. Could some of you smart folks reflect on the clues and tell me what you think is going on?
Thanks

If it vanished out of the shopping cart, well I doubt anyone borrowed it.
however, the 'find my' app has a fatal weakness in that unless the device is on the internet, it's invisible. And the iPad can be wiped clean in a matter of minutes (if the device doesn't have any passcode lock on it, you don't even need a computer or software to wipe it and reset it, you can do it from the device)
It's possible that the napper has gotten the iPad on the net without wiping it (if so, then your friend's info and e-mail and passwords are all vulnerable and should be changed immediately). It's also possible that it's been wiped and what you're seeing is just a 'ghost'.
I have to say, even if you have the address of the complex where the device supposedly is....the chances of the cops knocking door to door looking for it....very slim.
they have much bigger fish to fry than a stolen device.
You can register the theft with them, and the serial number, that way if it ever shows up at a pawn shop or part of some other investigation you MIGHT get it back.
But, unfortunatley, it's gone.
Now, one big thing about iOS7, presuming that software keeps its announced features into the release, is that a device can't be wiped without knowing the Apple ID associated with it. So thieves will hopefully have a harder time than they do now. Won't help you, unfortunately, but mgiht help in the future.

Need to find table for dispute case attachments in service for objects

Hi All,
I have a requirement where i need to find some tables which will hold details of dispute case attachments. After a dispute case is created using UDM_DISPUTE transaction, the concerned person may open that dispute case and can attach some documents/any attachments using services for objects icon at the top left corner of the screen. All i want to know is, in which table (tables related to service object) this attachment details will be stored. Even if the attachments details are stored in service objects related tables, there should be some link for this attachment and dispute case. Please let me know if any of you have some pointers and it would be highly appreciated.
Thanks in advance,
Srilakshmi.

Hi a®s,
Thanks for your reply. An entry is getting created in this table SRGBTBREL whenever an attachment/URL/notes is attached to a dispute case using services for object and the link between this table and dispute case table SCMG_T_CASE_ATTR is INSTID_A. This field holds the value of CASE GUID from SCMG_T_CASE_ATTR. Now my requirement is whenever an attachment is present in a dispute case i need to set a customized checkbox present in UDM_DISPUTE screen so that when an user opens the dispute case he/she can understand some attachment is present for this case by seeing the checkbox. I found the SCMG* badi's are not helpful to set the checkbox. Please let me know if you have any idea on how to implement it.
Thanks in advance,
Srilakshmi.

Do I need a new case number for the Transfer of License Form? I am the recipient of a transfer of license product registration. The transferring person has already filled out and returned the transfer of license form. Do I use the same number or do I need a new number.

You need to get a new number for yourself because the transferor and the recipient cannot use the same number.

the subjects contained in combinations

384           Chemistry,Computer Science,Mathematics,Physics
you can use any of the COMBINATION table(either (2) or (3))
and i want to know
1)which design is good in this case
(i think SUB_ID1,SUB_ID2,SUB_ID3,SUB_ID4 is not a
good method to link with same table but if 4 subjects only(and must) comes
detail table is not neccessary )
now i am achieving the result by program-coding in C# after getting the rows from oracle
i am using oracle 9i (also ODP.NET)
i want to know how can i get the result in the stored procedure itsef.
2)how it could be designed in any other way.
any help/suggestion is welcome
thanks for your time --Pradeesh

Well I forgot the table-alias, here now with:
SELECT C.COMB_ID
, C.COMB_NAME
, (SELECT SUB_NAME
FROM SUBJECTS
WHERE SUB_ID = C.SUB_ID1) AS SUBJECT_NAME1
, (SELECT SUB_NAME
FROM SUBJECTS
WHERE SUB_ID = C.SUB_ID2) AS SUBJECT_NAME2
, (SELECT SUB_NAME
FROM SUBJECTS
WHERE SUB_ID = C.SUB_ID3) AS SUBJECT_NAME3
, (SELECT SUB_NAME
FROM SUBJECTS
WHERE SUB_ID = C.SUB_ID4) AS SUBJECT_NAME4
FROM COMBINATION C;
As you need exactly 4 subjects, the columns-solution is just fine I would say.

How many Licenses of Acrobat Professional do I need for Adobe LC PDF Generator

Hi,
At our customer site we have purchased 6 licenses of Adobe LiveCycle PDF Generator and have recieved a license file with the keys for Adobe LiveCycle PDF Generator and Adobe Acrobat Professional. We bought the license from a reseller of the product. We understand that the Adobe LiveCycle PDF Generator is a server based software and needs 1 license per CPU. Each of our server (Dev, Val & Prod) have 2 CPU's so we have sufficient licenses (6). We are under the impression that this would suffice. How ever we are not sure on how many licenses we need for Acrobat Professional.
Here is a brief description of the way we would use Adobe LiveCycle PDF Generator. We are deploying a PLM system and one of the requirement is to render Word documents to PDF so we are using PDF Generator for this capability. On our Adobe servers we will install Microsoft Word, Acrobat Professional V9 Extended and the Adobe Livecycle PDF Generator. We will have around 150 users for the PLM system being deployed. The PLM system is a Web based system which means the PLM application server will be running on a Solaris server in our case. As part of the workflows in the PLM system, at the end of the workflow process, the PLM server would trigger a request to the Adobe server to convert the word document to PDF. The Adobe server processess the request and returns the PDF file that gets generated.
Based on the above usage of the system how many licenses of Acrobat Professional do we need? We will be installing Acrobat only on the server where we install the Livecycle PDF Generator. We had a call with our purchasing person today and she cautioned us that for Adobe Acrobat Professional we might need 1 license per user of the PLM system. She has asked us to check this with the Vendor of the product. Somehow I don't think it makes sense to purchase so many Acrobat Professional licenses even though we install only once.
So can someone tell me How does the licensing for Adobe Livecycle PDF Generator work? How many Acrobat Professional licenses we actually need? Is it based on the number of users in the system that is triggering the request? Appreciate your response on this.
Regards,
Ragha

You really should talk to your Adobe Sales Rep about this. There are all kinds of special deals, licenses and such for customers using LiveCycle. (For instance the license for PDFG may include Acrobat licenses for certain uses).

I am able to get color images in the continues shot but when i try to snap a color image which i need for my processing i get only a monocrome image

I have been using lv_vfw.llb VI's for grabbing images from a CREATIVE WEB CAM ,i am able to get color images in the continues shot but when i try to snap a color image which i need for my processing i get only a monocrome image ,i have been trying to play around with the RGB weightings but i am unable to get a color iamge,it shall be of great help if you could help me in doing this as it is urgent for me.Thanks for your help.

vicky,
I am unfamiliar with the lv_vfw.llb, and have not used it before. However, I noticed that you stated that you are able to grab in color, just not snap in color. If this is the case, why not just perform a grab and then extract a single buffer from this grabbed data, which would likely be in color? This seems like a possible solution to the issue that you are seeing.
Other than that, I really don't know enough about the lv_vfw.llb to be of much help on this issue. Hopefully another member of this forum will be able to assist you with this software.

Help needed for THE decision

Hi everyone ☺
I’m finally planning to start recording what I play, and after some hours of wandering on the web I found some interesting possibilities. Now what I need is to decide which one is more suitable for my needs, and here comes the moment for apple discussions
Basically, I will record my own music one track/instrument at a time (I’m still not able to play more than one…and I dont’ want to spend 2.000$ to buy a 24-ins device just to record drum tracks), I’d like to have a software with built-in effects for guitar/bass/voice, integrated soundtrack possibilities (to play with video recordings), mixing options for both stereo and surround mixing, and I don’t want any card to be placed into my mac. Well, and obviously the sound quality must be pro-like…as anyone probably wants.
So, here’s what I came up with:
a) getting logic pro studio 8 and apogee duet
b) getting pro tools m-powered and mbox 2
c) getting one of the two softwares and a Monster iStudioLink Instrument cable and plug instruments directly into the mac
Now, the questions are:
if I can plug an instrument directly into my mac and control all parameters via one of the two softwares, what do tools like duet and mbox2 serve for?
In the case this tools are useful [ ☺ ], why ☺ … and which is the couple software/hardware that can best suit my needs?
I assume that every software has a proprietary file extension in which audio tracks are saved, so that it should be impossible to record an audio track with one software and edit it with another that has different functions/plugins (ex. from logic to pro tools, from pro tools to cakewalk sonar which I have on a pc etc.). Am I right, or is there any “standard”, non compressed high quality file type in which track can be saved and exported to be edited with different softwares?
I know that from this post it may easily seem that I’m a hopeless digital idiot, but I swear the situation is not really that bad so no need for the kind of explanations with drawings like the ones you find in the “for dummies” guides lol so every experts’ advice will be greatly appreciated
Neptune

Thank you Bee Jay and Pancenter for the lighting-fast and useful answers
now I am aware that an interface IS NEEDED lol (that means they are not produced without a reasons, are they?). I know Pro Tools is the industry standard but I don't like anyone/anything to tie me to their choices/interests (so that's why I was asking about Pro Tools, knowing that there's some sort of "hardware threat"). What I look for is just quality and if I understood what you both mean, as far as this aspect is concerned, Logic and Pro Tools are substantially comparable...isn't it? On the interfaces side, I already checked the Saffire ones (they seem quite good, and cross-platform use is definitely a plus), I will check the others mentioned and will let you know In fact, I didn't consider the "platform problem" but, as I wrote, I also own a PC with an Audigy 2 soundcard (midi/analog/optical/digital inputs/outputs and firewire port...not Madonna's private studio, but not as sad as Mac's little hole) and Sonar 6 Producer Edition, so that has been a really good point to ponder. And now, in the middle of this software/hardware battle...any personal suggestions based on tests/personal experience?

IN DESPERATE NEED FOR HELP flashing question mark appears MacBook

Hello everyone, I got this White MacBook Mac OS X 10.4.11 yesturday I was updating limewire and iTunes, I was downloading some songs from Limewire when all of a sudden my macbook frozed. I was not able to do a thing. Not even minimizing nor quiting the app nor even opening another aplication, so I decided to shut it down by holding the power button until it shut down (about 8 secs). So I restart my macbook and I got this grey=blank screen whit a flashing question mark on it. I've tried EVERYTHING on this link http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1440?viewlocale=en_US even these one http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1533 and all I was able to accomplish, was to hold the mouse (/trackpad) button to eject a Cd, and while pressing Shift during startup (in order to start in Safe Boot mode) all I get is this lock image and this space to type a password. I've tried typing every password I know and I can't fix my macbook. Can anyone please help me out on this one?

It means certain system files needed for startup are corrupted. You will have to reinstall OS X. If your hard drive is unaffected you can try the following:
How to Perform an Archive and Install
An Archive and Install will NOT erase your hard drive, but you must have sufficient free space for a second OS X installation which could be from 3-9 GBs depending upon the version of OS X and selected installation options. The free space requirement is over and above normal free space requirements which should be at least 6-10 GBs. Read all the linked references carefully before proceeding.
1. Be sure to use Disk Utility first to repair the disk before performing the Archive and Install.
Repairing the Hard Drive and Permissions
Boot from your OS X Installer disc. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Installer menu (Utilities menu for Tiger.) After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list. In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive. If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported, then quit DU and return to the installer.
If DU reports errors it cannot fix, then you will need Disk Warrior (4.0 for Tiger) and/or TechTool Pro (4.5.2 for Tiger) to repair the drive. If you don't have either of them or if neither of them can fix the drive, then you will need to reformat the drive and reinstall OS X.
2. Do not proceed with an Archive and Install if DU reports errors it cannot fix. In that case use Disk Warrior and/or TechTool Pro to repair the hard drive. If neither can repair the drive, then you will have to erase the drive and reinstall from scratch.
3. Boot from your OS X Installer disc. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button. When you reach the screen to select a destination drive click once on the destination drive then click on the Option button. Select the Archive and Install option. You have an option to preserve users and network preferences. Only select this option if you are sure you have no corrupted files in your user accounts. Otherwise leave this option unchecked. Click on the OK button and continue with the OS X Installation.
4. Upon completion of the Archive and Install you will have a Previous System Folder in the root directory. You should retain the PSF until you are sure you do not need to manually transfer any items from the PSF to your newly installed system.
5. After moving any items you want to keep from the PSF you should delete it. You can back it up if you prefer, but you must delete it from the hard drive.
6. You can now download a Combo Updater directly from Apple's download site to update your new system to the desired version as well as install any security or other updates. You can also do this using Software Update.

Need for multiple ASM disk groups on a SAN with RAID5??

Hello all,
I've successfully installed clusterware, and ASM on a 5 node system. I'm trying to use asmca (11Gr2 on RHEL5)....to configure the disk groups.
I have a SAN, which actually was previously used for a 10G ASM RAC setup...so, reusing the candidate volumes that ASM has found.
I had noticed on the previous incarnation....that several disk groups had been created, for example:
ASMCMD> ls
DATADG/
INDEXDG/
LOGDG1/
LOGDG2/
LOGDG3/
LOGDG4/
RECOVERYDG/
Now....this is all on a SAN....which basically has two pools of drives set up each in a RAID5 configuration. Pool 1 contains ASM volumes named ASM1 - ASM32. Each of these logical volumes is about 65 GB.
Pool #2...has ASM33 - ASM48 volumes....each of which is about 16GB in size.
I used ASM33 from pool#2...by itself to contain my cluster voting disk and OCR.
My question is....with this type setup...would doing so many disk groups as listed above really do any good for performance? I was thinking with all of this on a SAN, which logical volumes on top of a couple sets of RAID5 disks...the divisions on the disk group level with external redundancy would do anything?
I was thinking of starting with about half of the ASM1-ASM31 'disks'...to create one large DATADG disk group, which would house all of the database instances data, indexes....etc. I'd keep the remaining large candidate disks as needed for later growth.
I was going to start with the pool of the smaller disks (except the 1 already dedicated to cluster needs) to basically serve as a decently sized RECOVERYDG...to house logs, flashback area...etc. It appears this pool is separate from pool #1...so, possibly some speed benefits there.
But really...is there any need to separate the diskgroups, based on a SAN with two pools of RAID5 logical volumes?
If so, can someone give me some ideas why...links on this info...etc.
Thank you in advance,

The best practice is to use 2 disk groups, one for data and the other for the flash/fast recovery area. There really is no need to have a disk group for each type of file, in fact the more disks in a disk group (to a point I've seen) the better for performance and space management. However, there are times when multiple disk groups are appropriate (not saying this is one of them only FYI), such as backup/recovery and life cycle management. Typically you will still get benefit from double stripping, i.e. having a SAN with RAID groups presenting multiple LUNs to ASM, and then having ASM use those LUNs in disk groups. I saw this in my own testing. Start off with a minimum of 4 LUNs per disk group, and add in pairs as this will provide optimal performance (at least it did in my testing). You should also have a set of standard LUN sizes to present to ASM so things are consistent across your enterprise, the sizing is typically done based on your database size. For example:
300GB LUN: database > 10TB
150GB LUN: database 1TB to 10 TB
50GB LUN: database < 1TB
As databases grow beyond the threshold the larger LUNs are swapped in and the previous ones are swapped out. With thin provisioning it is a little different since you only need to resize the ASM LUNs. I'd also recommend having at least 2 of each standard sized LUNs ready to go in case you need space in an emergency. Even with capacity management you never know when something just consumes space too quickly.
ASM is all about space savings, performance, and management :-).
Hope this helps.

Clarification is needed for Tittle Case
