Consolidating In/Out Payments for BPs who are vendors and customers

Hi
We do business with a number of companies who are both vendors and customers and I am wondering if there is a better way of dealing with contra payments..
At the moment I would do the following:
I want to pay a supplier's November AP Invoices but they also owe us (a lesser amount) for November AR Invoices....
1. I create an incoming payment for the amount of the AR Invoices but deposit the payment to a 'contra' account instead of our current account. (No actual funds have been received from the supplier/customer)
2. I create an outgoing payment in the amount of the balance of the 'contra' account which pays off some AP Invoices in full and one AP Invoice in part. I choose the 'contra' account as the payment account.
3. I create a second payment for the balance of the part-paid AP Invoice and the rest of the due AP Invoices. I choose the current account as the payment account.
4. I send the supplier/customer 2 separate remittance advice notes along with a single cheque in the amount of the 2nd payment..
Is there a better way of doing this which doesn't rely on me remembering to check whether a vendor is also a coustomer and whether they owe money for the relevant period before I do a payment run?
Thanks for any advice (SAP 2007A)

    Is there an automated way to scan my multimedia folder for files that are there and not in my i tune library and add them to y existing library ?
    I recenty had a damaged i tune library and had to import an old version.
    This last one does not have many of the CD I have copied the past months. And I don't know which ones these are either as they are too many of them.

    This will list files that are in the iTunes DB but the files are not in the media folder…

    I think it may misbehave with ringtones & some of the obscure media files, but they are both really powerful for repairing mangled libraries.
    I would create a new smart playlist for 'Tracks added since (todays date)' so you can easily find any tracks that you add back to iTunes.

  • For those who are impatient for the Iphone 5 delivery. I got mine and didn't wait..

    If you are impatient and want the iphone 5 in your hand the very next day, I suggest going to the apple site and place an order for in store pickup. Originally I placed my order with verizon and had a 3-4 week wait. Then I decided to cancel the verizon order and I got myself one the very next day and didn't have to wait for long delivery dates. Here is how I did it:
    1) Go to http://www.apple.com/retail/iphone/
    2) Notice the message "iPhone 5 is available in limited quantities. Buy it at your favorite Apple Retail Store or choose in-store pickup when you buy online between 10:00 p.m. and 4:00 a.m."
    3) I have noticed that by the time you fill out the form information at 10pm, the iphone 5's are out of stock at your local store in probably 5 minutes. So they sell out really fast. So what I did to bypass the form was to login with my appleid and pre-fill the form around 9:30pm and SAVE it to the cart. 
    4) At this point, I needed to know exactly what store I wanted to pick it up from. I chose 3 stores around my area in order of preference in case if one didn't have it in stock I could move on to the next without wasting any time thinking about it at the time of checkout. When 9:55pm rolls around, I logged into my saved cart and checked out picking the store I wanted.
    5) Then entered my payment information and picked it up the next day.
    The only disadvantage to this approach was you may not get your preferred store, but this didn't bother me too much as I didn't want to wait 4 weeks for my phone. I hope this helps some people. If there are questions, I will try to answer.. Good luck to those still waiting!!

  • For all who are facing restarts and battery proble...

    I now have N8 with Anna perfectly working without tweaking (except for wifi scanning) any settings without battery life issues and no spontaneous resets..
    Soln 1 :
    Go to post 31 in this  thread /t5/Nseries-and-Symbian-Smartphones/Anna-Battery-Consumption-very-heavy-Nokia-N8/td-p/1121257
    This will solve the problem.
    Soln 2 -
    I still had sluggish performance after soln 1. I also noticed, that all the issues are reported by people who have "upgraded from pr 1.2 to Anna". I have not come across similar issues in the forum from people "who purchased phone with Anna pre-loaded". It seems that the upgrade process probably has some issues.
    I downloaded the "FULL" official firmware of my country's variant of Anna. Using a tool that I downloaded, I completely flashed my N8 with the full firmware. Ever since performance has been a whiz...no battery life issues and no resets. It is as good as the N8 purchased from the store with Anna pre-loaded from factory.
    Some caveats :
    1. This is not for the timid-hearted. The steps have to be followed exactly. Do your research before you attempt.
    2. Take a backup of your N8 before you do this. After you follow the procedure "Do not restore your applications & settings". Re-install them instead.
    3. For reasons that are obovious, I cannot mention the steps nor the links. It is easy enough to get by google search.
    Good luck..

    First off, I can't guarrantee this will fix your particular issue. It fixed mine. Apparently, ICS reconfigures numerous programs and settings. Comcast Email is one of them. The settings have SSL as default in both, incoming and outgoing. Comcast, afaik, doesn't use or require SSL. You need to change SSL to "none" in both, incoming and outgoing settings. That's it. Nothing else need be done. Close it, relaunch email app, let it connect or manually connect. The "no connection" error should be gone and your email should come in and go out. Now, how to to do it:
    Click on the "Apps" circle button, all apps, My Accounts (or Accounts and Sync if you don't have My Accounts), Email & Calendars, --> choose your comcast account and go to Account settings, -->choose Comcast (not General), scroll down to "Server Settings". Here you'll find your incoming and outgoing settings. Under "security type" choose "none" and do that for both, incoming and outgoing. Incoming Port: 110; Outgoing Port: 587. Click done, for each server, incoming, then outgoing. It will validate the server each time. When finished, click done, and let it connect to email and download it.
    I hope this helps all who have been having Comcast Email issues after ICS update. Good luck!
      It changed my GoDaddy account (I have my own domain name with email) settings, along with my wife's RoadRunner email settings. It doesn't look like it is just Comcast email...

  • For those who are interested in buying a W520: flaw summary

    Hey,
    I´m still indecisive whether I want to get my own W520 or not. Part of it of course is the number of issues people have been unveiling in this forum. For all those who are considering too, and for my self I'd like to summarize the bugs and flaws that are still present and those that had been fixed by Lenovo since the launch of the W520 back in march.
    No question, the W520 is a nice and impressive machine and no laptop out there comes with really no problems at all.
    I guess it's just looking like Lenovos are quite flawed these days because everyone expects those to be 100% fine, since they are thinkpads and thinkpads are as a matter of a fact flawless.
    Quick list of things that should (hopefully) sooner or later be fixed:
    Software bugs and flaws:
    power management regulation that's supposed to keep the battery alive by limiting the CPU to 800 MHz does get confused by changing the power supply while sleeping, resulting in a throttled machine with AC power supply or a unthrottled machine running on battery, unless you plug-out and plug-in your power supply again while running
    troublesome bluetooth driver wiped some harddrives (fixed now, or at least that particular driver is no longer downloadable)
    fancontrol goes crazy and pulses every 5 or 30 seconds (for many people)
    fan is too active (too loud) while having no or low load on the system
    warmboot issues with an SSD as main drive delays startup because of an unnecessary check
    some driver seems to constantly write something onto your main drive while the ODD is mounted (which would lead to wearing out a SSD, not confirmed by others yet)
    Hardware bugs and flaws:
    fan creates a high frequent noise starting at 2nd level of speed (?)
    many accessory products like the docking station and the ultra bay HDD carrier were advertised as fitting for the W520 as well as for the W510, but obviously don't fit
    (two people in this forum had dieing speakers that would do nothing but make a clicking noise)
    Is this pretty much what I'll run into when I order my own W520 or did I miss something?
    For the time being:
    using TPFC
    always restart manually with "shutdown" while using a ssd
    double checking if it's the right docking and ultra bay for the w520
    and plugging the power supply just after turning the machine on
    solves all the issues reportet here, except for the high pitched noise of the fan, that many people complain about,
    or doesn't it?
    (not listed abone for beeing more a feature than a bug or something like that:
    ultra nav issues caused by manufacturers settings
    network issues caused by manufacturers setting
    problems with unsupported ram)
    so long,
    and thanks for all the fish

    The issue that is most annoying for me is"
    - warmboot issues with an SSD as main drive delays startup (by 40 seconds) because of an unnecessary check
    (I have the Intel 510 SSD).
    Otherwise, the W520 is the best laptop I have ever owned and very FAST!!!
    W520 4270CTO i7-2820QM Quadro2000M 1920x1080 Display 16GB RAM 2x240GB Intel 510 SSDs (RAID 0) - BIOS 1.42 - PCMark7:4,568

  • How to skip approving steps for users who are also approvers?

    We have a business need to be able to skip the approving steps for the users who are also approvers.
    For this following steps were followed :-
    1) Open .task file and go into the Assignment tab. Double click on the performer box within the routing slip, this should open the "Edit Participant Type" editor. Expand the "Advanced" section and place a check next to "specify skip rule", then click the edit icon to the right. Now enter an XPath expression that will test whether the current user is equal to the task creator.
    2) We used - isUserInRole XPath function in the "Identify Service Functions" dropdown - first param to function is the userID, the 2nd is the role name.
    We tried with hardcoded userID as well as by using
    ids:isUserInRole(/task:task/task:systemAttributes/task:updatedBy/task:id,'California')
    where 'California' is the group name (as one of the forum threads told this function works with groups).
    We also tried with swimlane roles(using bpm.getPerformer() function) but it does not work either.
    Please let me know if any one has any solution to this problem.

    session as DirectorySession = DirectorySession.currentEngineSession
    dirHum as Fuego.Fdi.DirHumanParticipant = DirHumanParticipant.fetch(session : session, id : "myUserId")
    result = hasRoleAssigned(dirHum, role : "Approver")Give that a try...
    HTH,

  • Posting Error for Pensioner who are with some Third party Deductions

    Dear all:
    While posting Payroll result to FI, there is a issue that  "cost centre is not assigned" for the pensioners(Who are with some deductions like income Tax, bank Loan and so on) . The Cost Centre is assigned with Org Unit and Positon, but for pensioners, there is no position in the org unit.
    how we could handle it?
    Any tip is greatly appreciated,
    Thank a lot in advance!

    Hi Sathya,
    This is how we have setup the retirees (pensioners).
    If we speak about the pensioners from Business point of view, then there should be only pensioner department (or PA) and every retiree should be assign to it.
    So we have created one position which is applicable to every retiree and only assigned to org unti (retiree) which has the cost center default on it.
    Try presenting this structure to your client. This will surely simplify the business processes around pensioners.

  • Regarding IOS 7 activation lock.  For people who are not early adopter or wealthy, relying on second hand purchase to own an IOS 7 device, has any consideration been given? Online purchases are routine.  In good faith, many will now suffer for not knowing

    I am part of the second hand market, non early adopter, that's trying to use an IOS 7 device.  I just bought an Ipod touch 5th gen and an Iphone 5 with IOS 7 and quickly learn that I've just lost many hundreds of dollars because of the activation lock.  Of course, I should have known better...be smarter, etc.  Now I have two bricks, basically fancy Apple product that're now junks.  With IOS 7 and the activation lock, isn't Apple concerns that they will soon frustrate a lot of new and existing users and will also be known for creating increasing number of junk (brick) devices.

    Hi Tilnow,
    The hope is that the activation lock will deter future thieves. Apple has long been inundated with irate customers who have had their devices lost or stolen, and who are then angry that Apple cannot protect their phone from would-be thieves.
    With the new security measures, unless the owner of the phone turns off Find My iPhone, and wipes the phone completely, it is unusable to anyone but that original owner.
    I'm sorry you have had such an unfortunate experience with your purchases, but these security measures are as much to protect you from purchasing a stolen phone from an unscrupulous seller as it is to protect a phone you own from being stolen.
    Is there no way you can contact the seller(s) and have them turn off Find My iPhone and wipe the device for you?
    Going forward, it is the best policy for you to ensure that the seller has done both of these things. If they cannot, then you know that they are probably not on the up and up.
    Best of luck going forward,
    Cheers,

  • Question for those who are getting their broken TCs replaced by Apple:

    Are those of you who are getting a replacement TC through Apple all within your warranty period, or is Apple replacing all of the 'power issue' failures, regardless of warranty?
    Do you have Apple care, or are you just calling the Apple Care number?
    What model of TC failed?
    I'm nervous about mine....
    Thank you.

  • Possible upgrade solution for people who have HD and problems in general.

    OK, for me, Leopard has been as painful as going osx from OS9, at least the upgrade has been , dunno about the retail copy., bugs, bugs, bugs with the upgrade for sure.
    Here is what happens generally., you upgrade and basically you need to run disk tools from a external drive or the Leopard DVD., the problems move on still.
    Solution i found was to back up to another drive, that is right guys, spend another hundred bucks no one warned you about., get a external HD or if your living it high and collect macs as Apple assumes you may just have a second Intel mac laying around with a Sata drive in it to start up in "Firewire Target Mode", (hold the "T" at start up)and start cloning your drive with SuperDuper (also need to purchase)..
    Ok
    1- once you clone your drive (usualy a hour for the base system alone).
    2- erase it as one partition,
    3- in the options make sure it is set as GUID partition (takes about a hour) and
    4- then as well zero out all the data., takes about 2 hours there as well.
    5- Now run disk utilities from the Leopard DVD or the computer or booted up drive you used to do all this., if you can not fix permission of th volume you seen to reformat the Drive again 7 pass!, could take 4 hours.
    Finally you will be able re clone it, and run disk tools after a days work no one warned you about.
    *This disk utilities operation may take about 1 hour but say 11, and look like this below;*

    *Good luck*
    *My ADVISE:* if you experienced these problems, as above, reformatting by zeroing out the data works. as for those who want Leopard. *DO NOT UPGRADE but install a RETAIL version of LEOPARD* until apple has a update,
    I read posts where people who have the retail copy (full DVD) have not experienced these problems, mine was a upgrade from Tiger since i got a mac in the last 30 days.
    WARNING: it has been hard to trust Apple fanatics with these things now days, many posts are denials to things not working so i could be wrong there as well, been honest saves time is all i can advise them.
    If anyone has beter advise please do post it.

    And what is yaml all about, shows up in disk utilities for hundreds if not thousands of issues?

  • Important News For Those Who Use Hulu And Other Flash Video Websites.

    Adobe will release the next update to the Adobe Flash software in the next few weeks and that update will bring better GPU video decoding acceleration for Windows if you have recent graphics hardware from ATI, Nvidia, or Intel. This update is VERY important for those who use laptops which have less powerful processors and hardware than desktops usually do. In order to take advantage of this update when it comes out, you MUST have the latest graphics cards drivers for your hardware. ATI, Nvidia, and Intel will all be releasing new drivers  specifically for the updated Flash software so keep an eye on the respective websites for your graphics hardware maker. Of those companies, only Intel and Nvidia have drivers available for testing at the moment, but ATI is not far behind.

    You may be able to disable Flash entirely and just use HTML 5 video codecs to view the videos this is faster but you may lose access to some videos such as ones that have mandatory advertisements.
