Crazy Discount Behaviour

Goodness me!
I have found a very strange problem in SAP 8.81 PL09!
If I have an item with period and volume discounts, SAP uses the row level discount to calculate the row total price. The total discount at the bottom of the screen is ignored - this is fine.
The problem is: if I enter a discount in the discount field at the bottom, and then enter an item/qty which fires a volume discount, the discount field at the bottom of the screen is changed - this is most unwelcome!
Could someone help me? I am more confused than Maureen off Driving School navigating the Arc de Triomphe
Thank you

Hi Claudio Mucho,
What other versions have you used before than give you desired result?
Thanks,

Crazy email behaviour - N86

When it works it is great, but the IMAP mail on N86 seems to have a life of its' own.
I have 2 email accounts which I synchronise onto my N86. My Yahoo.com mail seems to work fine and is set up to use nokia-prem.imap.mail.yahoo.com as server.
However, my work email which is also set up as IMAP has been really tempramental. I have to use non-default ports for this connection. It worked fine for a long time and then just randomly stopped working. It seems to lose menu items (the menu items just are not there any more!), when I look at
options-settings-mailbox settings- advanced mailbox sett
I did a hard reset of the phone and got it going again. However the mail has now stopped working again. I can now send a mail but can't receive.
I'm on 20.115 - tied to this by O2 in UK.
Any ideas folks???

.............and so it gets stranger. I was in Rep of Ireland today and the mail synch started again, and continued to work after I got back to UK.
How can this be explained??
Has anyone else experienced anything similiar or should I report to Nokia and what are they likely to do?
Thanks in advance

Apple Bluetooth Devices and Rechargeable Batteries

Hi,
Both from my own experience, and other posts on this forum, there seems to be a problem using Bluetooth devices, especially mice, with rechargeable batteries (symptoms, not being able to point, crazy tracking behaviour etc.).
I know that Apple recommends that non-rechargeable batteries are used, but in this day and age that seems a bit archaic and, well, not very eco-friendly!
So is there a good reason why Apple couldn't design (or re-design) bluetooth devices with re-chargeables in mind?
If there's anyone out there who has been able to get reliable performance from blue-tooth devices with re-chargeables, can you share some brands/details?
I've tried Energizer Ni-MH 2000mAh, and they do not work.
PowerMac G4 Ai/Intel Mac Mini Mac OS X (10.4.8)

Hello Ellis:
Welcome to Apple discussions.
Apple indicates that rechargeable batteries are fine for use in wireless mice/KBs (see paragraph #2):
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=86651#faq1
As the other poster correctly indicated, the voltage is lower in rechargeable batteries so they do not last as long as lithium ones. I use 2500 MaH batteries and the life is "reasonable." I do use an Energizer recharger that recharges batteries in 15 minutes (takes both AA and AAA batteries).
FWIW, I have not detected any behavior problems related to using rechargeable batteries - nor have I seen more than anecdotal posts that indicate such problems,

Download stack overlay

Hi! I recently downloaded a few overlays for stacks that I really like, there just one problem for the download stack, when I download something, the icon is replaced with the newly downloaded item. I want my overlay to remain on top, but still show the newly downloaded item right after it in the stack. Is there any way to do this?
Thanks!
Brandon

Further to the above, you can tell the stack to sort by name to give you the icon you want and then open in Finder where the sort order can be by date, but that kind of defeats the purpose of having the Downloads folder in dock. In fact Downloads folder, I would have thought, is one of the few examples of why you would want the (crazy) Leopard behaviour of showing the latest icon on top.

BT Yahoo account suspended

Hope someone can help. I was accessing my emails this morning, but a few hours later and my password did not work. I tried to reset my passwork and it said that my account had been suspended. Why? How do I get my emails?
Thank you for your help.

Hi.
Welcome to the forums.
It's not spam, it's a crazy system behaviour - which is also copying to email addresses that have nothing to do with BT.
I have many email addresses from old legacy days, so it's obvious that something is wrong.
When BTSport started, I initially got their weekly updates on one email address, then it was randomly sent to any of the sub accounts on my main account. They have since stopped, probably due to the amount of complaints - and this is on mail accounts not transferred to BTMail.
Frankly the sofware coders are getting things badly wrong - it's a pure software issue, not a "server" issue.
These emails can cause many people to be scared in that the implication that someone has altered the password. This should be investigated ASAP, and a statement exactly why it happened.
I am still waiting for the replies why other faults have happened, it's not good enough that people are not told the reason.

Crazy behaviour with contacts sync

IOS 5.1 / iTunes 10.6.1 / Snow Leopard 10.6.8
On USB sync with computer strange behaviour...
Deleted numerous contacts within Address Book on MAC, the old contact exist on iPad. Sync via iTunes (USB) and ticked "replace contactas on this iPad". Sync finishes but all the old contacts still remain.
2) Unticked "Contacts" in iTunes - sync with device and all contacts disappear - Great, exactly as expected. However after ticking "contacts" nad performing 2nd sync - all the old contacts reappear on iPad.... How, they are not in the address book anymore. If I look in the address book folder I can still see the deleted .abcdp files.

Problem with devices running IOS 5.1.1, but not 4.2, where it works as expected.
Anyway, this worked....
1) backed up address book … File>Export
2) deleted all contacts in address book
3) deleted all files within: library>user>application support>address book
4) unticked sync contacts in iTunes - synced with device
5) open address book: import file (the backup file)
6) open iTunes: tick sync contacts and sync'd

Spry.Effect.GrowShrink crazy behaviour

Hi, I was wondering if someone could help me figure out why
when I pass the mouse over the thumbnails in my photo gallery, they
act all jumpy. I used the same effect as in the Spry demo photo
gallery yet they behave differently. My gallery is located here
http://www.fotosite.ca/temp/index.htm
my grow function looks like this (and shrink is similar)
function GrowThumbnail(img, from, to){
img.style.zIndex = 150;
img.style.borderStyle = 'solid';
img.style.borderWidth = '3px';
img.style.borderColor = '#ffff00';
Spry.Effect.GrowShrink(img, {duration: 500, from: from, to:
to ,toggle:false });
Thanks in advance for any help,

Hi,
I see 2 problems:
1. The Grow/Shrink effect do not know to consider the margin,
border and padding so when you add these properties from the
JavaScript you'll have the weird behavior of images moving down and
right before animation start and then up and left when the mouse
leave.
We automatically include the 1px border in the thumbnail view
and we only change its color. You remove 2px from the border while
the mouse is not over the element and when you add them the effect
is really visible and disturbing. If you consider in keeping a such
big value for the border then you should keep it when the images
are not focused.
2. While you move the mouse over the thumbnails fast some of
the images will remain open. This is a bug that also reproduce in
our photo gallery too and I will look to fix it while the new Spry
will be released. The issue is basically generated by the fact you
are not using the toggle option while running the effect.

Crazy behaviour with actions

Hi
I downloaded some automator actions for office2004. Somehow, dont ask me how, one of the folders containing actions has been "converted" so that every action is displayed as a folder containing certain files. In otrher words the file/folder "New Powerpoint Project.action" is a folder containing the folder Contents -> Resources and Info.Plist
It looks in other words like I'm looking in a package.
Somehow the finder automatically "looks in the package" and I can't really understand why it does that.

Problem with devices running IOS 5.1.1, but not 4.2, where it works as expected.
Anyway, this worked....
1) backed up address book … File>Export
2) deleted all contacts in address book
3) deleted all files within: library>user>application support>address book
4) unticked sync contacts in iTunes - synced with device
5) open address book: import file (the backup file)
6) open iTunes: tick sync contacts and sync'd

How to stop this crazy behaviour? CC = crappy cloud.

I have tried CC for a short time. I don't like it, so I removed it completely.
Next I installed CS6 again.
Install proceeds without any errors. Next update all. Done.
So far so good, but when I try to open Illustrator or Premiere Pro, I get this:
I have no CC subscription. I installed with a serial number, so what the heck is Adobe doing?

Hi All,
You may any one of try this,
1.Run the CC Cleaner tool to completely uninstall by the following method.
.http://www.adobe.com/support/contact/cscleanertool.html
2.Uninstall Adobe Creative Suite on Windows
A.Open the Add or Remove Programs Control Panel (Windows XP) or the Programs And Features Control Panel (Windows Vista/Windows 7/Windows 8). B.Select the Adobe Creative Suite product and click Remove or Uninstall. Please Check the preference before uninstalling
C. After uninstall is completem,restart your system and close all open applications.
3.Uninstall Adobe Creative Suite on Mac OS
A.Navigate to /Applications/Utilities/Adobe Installers.

Clearing issue Incoming payment due to Cash discount ( customers)

Hello,
During processing automatic incoming payments the system don't clear the customer open item in case the customer has taken a cash discount.
The clearing should be done automatically in the posting area 2 but now the the user needs to do manual interventions in the FEBAN in order to clear the customer
We checked the payment terms and verified the discount taken by the customer and they are ok
After investigation we guess that the original SD invoice don't send the Discount amount and Discount base amount to FI, because we saw that those fields are empty in the FI document (RV),
Also in Billing the Cash discount base field in empty...
When i tried to create a manual customer invoice those fields are well filled in and the system clears the customer open item perfectly !
Any one an idea how to fix it ?

Hello,
Thanks for your feedback but the issue is not solved.
Is there difference in clearing behaviour in case the open item posting is orginated from a SD invoice ( Billing) because as stated before, when I make a FI sales invoice (FB60) the system perfectly accepts the cash discount and post and clears in postingarea 2
Also when I consult the open item position (FBL5N) the cash discount amount field is empty which is not the case when I post an FB60 invoice
Summarized
We are usiing the automatic bank statement program ( FEBC), during posting the system post perfectly posting area 1 (FEBP) but fails the post postingarea 2 ( the system makes a payment advice) the message the system generates ' Difference to large for clearing F5263'
Many thanks for help

ScreenUpdating=False fails to prevent screen updating, and causes bizarre behaviour

I have recently installed Office 2013 (MSO Standard 2013) on my (Win 7 Professional) computer. During a brief transitional period, Office 2003 will remain on my computer.
I had been looking forward to running the many Excel VBA applications on Excel 2013, but am not only disappointed, but alarmed. We are significantly dependent on over 50 business applications running in Excel VBA (many of which are complex,
and many of which I have developed), but we now find that seemingly one difference alone (though we may yet discover more) is rendering many of them virtually unusable. That difference is the behaviour of the Application.ScreenUpdating method.
In Excel 2003, the ScreenUpdating method behaved intuitively, predictably and reliably. It basically does what it says - all screen updating, except for the status bar, is frozen. To allow users to peek at any updates, one would simply
set ScreenUpdating=True and at the appropriate point freeze updating with ScreenUpdating=False. Now, in Excel 2013, we are instead finding behaviour which has to be described as bizarre, counterintuitive and destructive. Essentially, what is happening
is that whenever another worksheet is activated, ScreenUpdating=False does not prevent screen updating - and for good measure, there are a number of other unpleasant side-effects. I have spent many long hours searching through hundreds of forum posts
and testing workarounds - all without success. I have seen many posts complaining about ScreenUpdating in Excel 2013, but not a single implementable solution. Yes, I've seen the advice about replacing Select or Activate methods with objects, but
this workaround would not only be extremely costly and impractical in our case (it would require reworking tens of thousands of lines of code and would probably take many person months of unjustifiable work), it almost certainly wouldn't work. (You'll
have to take my word on that.) And all because ScreenUpdating=False doesn't really prevent screen updating any more! I cannot accept that ScreenUpdating is working properly in Excel 2013, nor that its functionality is in any way acceptable.
The problems are best illustrated with a simple example. I created this example to verify that the flickering was unrelated to the complexity of the business applications I referred to above. In this example, there is a "master"
workbook named "ScreenUpdatingTest.xls". This contains a single button on its only worksheet, and this button executes macro "TestScreenUpdating". This macro turns screen updating off, then sequentially opens workbook AAA.xls,
workbook BBB.xls and workbook CCC.xls with a 3 second interval between each workbook being opened. After 3 more seconds, it activates workbook ScreenUpdatingTest.xls and then turns screen updating on. Along the way, it reports these actions in
the status bar. One would expect that this would result in AAA, BBB and CCC being opened in the background, with the user seeing no changes on the screen apart from the status bar and the workbooks appearing in the task bar. This is precisely what
happens in Excel 2003.
By contrast, Excel 2013 seems to do absolutely nothing for about 12 seconds (even the task bar and the status bar remains unchanged), then, AAA, BBB and CCC can be seen to open (in maximized windows) in rapid succession. The only message I see in the
status bar is the last one, "Switched back to ScreenUpdatingTest.xls." Even more bizarrely, that there is a call to Msgbox "Hi" just before the Application.ScreenUpdating=True at the end of the subroutine - and this should be unrelated
to which workbook the focus end up with, right? Wrong! If Msgbox "Hi" is commented out, the focus ends up with CCC.xls - in other words, Workbooks(ThisWorkbook.Name).Activate seems to be ignored. But if Msgbox "Hi" is
uncommented, the focus ends up with ScreenUpdatingTest.xls! This is crazy, isn't it?
Sub TestScreenUpdating()
Application.ScreenUpdating = False
Application.Wait Now() + TimeValue("00:00:03")
Workbooks.Open ThisWorkbook.Path & "\AAA.xls"
Windows("AAA.xls").Activate
Application.StatusBar = "AAA.xls has been opened."
'Excel 2003:
' I see workbook ScreenUpdatingTest.xls on the screen with no flickering.
' AAA.xls is open in the task bar.
' The message that AAA.xls has been opened appears in the status bar.
'Excel 2013:
' I see workbook ScreenUpdatingTest.xls on the screen with no flickering.
' AAA.xls is >>>NOT<<< open in the task bar
' >>>NO<<< message that AAA.xls has been opened appears in the status bar.
Application.Wait Now() + TimeValue("00:00:03")
Workbooks.Open ThisWorkbook.Path & "\BBB.xls"
Windows("BBB.xls").Activate
Application.StatusBar = "BBB.xls has been opened."
'Excel 2003:
' I see workbook ScreenUpdatingTest.xls on the screen with no flickering.

Application.Wait Now() + TimeValue("00:00:03")
Workbooks.Open ThisWorkbook.Path & "\CCC.xls"
Windows("CCC.xls").Activate
Application.StatusBar = "CCC.xls has been opened."
'Excel 2003:
' I see workbook ScreenUpdatingTest.xls on the screen with no flickering.
' AAA.xls, BBB.xls and CCC.xls are open in the task bar.

Application.Wait Now() + TimeValue("00:00:03")
Workbooks(ThisWorkbook.Name).Activate

MsgBox "Hi"
Application.ScreenUpdating = True

' AAA.xls, BBB.xls and CCC.xls are >>>NOT<<< open in the task bar.
' The message that we have switched back to ScreenUpdatingTest.xls appears in the status bar.
End Sub
Surely it is reasonable to expect that such functionality should remain consistent from one version to the next! Our applications in Excel 2003 had a professional, elegant user interface, and they behaved predictably, intuitively and robustly.
With Excel 2013, this is utterly trashed, with flickering, unpredictable behaviour (who knows what will get the focus?) and inefficiency (things are so much slower when the screen updates). With Office 2003 going out of support, vast numbers of people
in my company will be moving to Excel 2013 as Excel 2003 is decommissioned. I imagine the same will be happening in many other companies. We now find ourselves on the cusp of being dealt us a devastating blow due to ONE DYSFUNCTIONAL METHOD, and
we are desperate for a solution. A solution would either have to restore the former Excel 2003 functionality of ScreenUpdating, or it would have to introduce a new method which really does turn screen updating on or off without exception.
Please, HELP!
-Peter

Thanks for the input, Jim.
I don't think the Single Document Interface is contributing to the problem. Since installing Office 2013, Excel 2003 has also inherited a Single Document Interface - yet while it behaves like a charm, Excel 2013 behaves ineptly.
Whatever the reasons for the problem, the fact is that this functionality is now broken - one might even say catastrophically broken - and some sort of resolution is essential. It would be madness to allow something like this to have such a severe
impact on business operations.
My call for help is still out there, as loud as ever! BTW, I can send my example files, zipped, to anyone who might like to look at them.

Discount after Tax Calculation!!

Dear Friends,
i want to calculate my discount after tax calculation.
Gross Price : 1000
Packing & Forwarding : 100
Total : 1100 (amount on this VAT calculated) 1100 * 4% = 44
Freight : 100
Total value of PO = (Gross Price + Packing & Forward + Tax + Freight)
=(100010044+100) = 1244
Up to this its calculating correctly, after this i want to calculate discount 10 % on my Gross value (1000) ie,100
Now total value of PO after TAX = (1244-100) = 1144
This 1144 values are correctly calculating, but the behaviour of the VAT amount changing (Now this 100 rs is subtracting on my Total:1100 tha Vat 4% is recalculating to 40 Rs)
from satish...

Hi
Try this
After calculating Total value of PO ,(1244)
add one condition absulute discount like PB00
give it sub toatal 6
give this amount 100 rs in po manually
next step final price (1244-100) = 1144

Incoming payment - post discount & small differencas a total as one item

Hi Guru,
When posting incoming payment cash discount and small differences are posted as one item for each open item.
For example:
Open item    discount    Small difference
100               1               0.05
200               2               0.10
At posting SAP post
Item 1   300 (to clear the open item)
Item 2   1 (cash discount)
Item 3   2 (cash discount)
Item 4   0.05 (small difference)
Item 5   0.10 (small difference)
Is there a way that I can group ALL discount and All small difference into one item each ie
Item 1   300 (to clear the open item)
Item 2   3       i.e. 1+2 the total of item 2 and 3 above (cash discount)
Item 3   0.15 i.e. 0.05+0.1 the total of item 4 and 5 above (small difference)
If so, where is the setting??
Thanks
Linda

Hi,
In general SAP clears on line item basis and posts line item for each clearing. If my understanding is not wrong this is the standard behaviour. This facilitates you to know each item that is cleared. But please check the settings for clearing differences / charge off under business transactions/accounts receivable and accounts payable. Unfortunately, I do not have a system handy to give you exact path.
thanks,

Payment terms and discount voor the purchasing invoice

Hi all,
In the definitions of the payment terms, you can choose how the Due date should be based on: Document date, Posting date, System date or Closing date..we choose for the Document date. (due date = doc. date + 30 days)
In the payment terms you can also define a cash discount if we pay the suppliers invoice within certain days, than we can deduct a discount of the total amount to be paid.
So we define f.e. within 14 days, 2%.
However the title of this colums says: Days after Posting date and the system also react like this.
The posting date of the suppliers invoice can ofcourse be different as the document date of this suppl.invoice.
F.e.: Suppliers Invoice: doc. date 30/9/2008, Posting date: 18/10/2008, Due Date 1/11/2008 (Doc.date + 30 days)
Payment at 25/10/2008 by the payment wizard.
The wizard still deduct 2 % as the due date of this invoice has not been reached, while the 2% should only be deducted if we pay before 14/10/2008.
So as we defined the due date based on the Document date, but the cash discount uses the posting date. (column title)
Is this wrong in the definitions or standard behaviour.
How can I use the cash discount in the payment terms?
Please advise.
Best regards,
Carl Verhagen

Hi Peter,
I'm talking about the A\R invoice.
The supplier sent his invoice with document date 1/10/2008 and his payment terms is payment within 30 days.
We receive the invoice at 3/10/2008 and after control etc. we will post the invoice at 7/10/2008.
If we use the posting date as a base for the due date, the invoice have to be paid at 6/11/2008, but the suppliers due date is 31/10/2008 and that's a difference of 1 nearly week.
If there are problems (f.e. caused by ourself) and the invoice will be booked at 20/10, we still have time to pay it before the due date 31/10 instead of 19/11/2008)
I think that the supplier will not be amused if we use the posting date as the base for calculating the due date.
We can discuss what's right to use, but SAP B1 gives the opportunity to choose between Doc.date, posting date and system date as a base for calculating the Due date but for cash discount it's automatically the posting date??
Best regards,
Carl Verhagen

Settlement Discount on Credit note

Hi All,
I have a client running 2005A SP01 PL 20 and no settlement discount is being calculated on credit notes when they select them as part of an incoming payment. The payment term with a cash discount is linked to the credit, but the discount value and discount percentages are both blocked on the incoming payment. Is this standard system behaviour?
How do we then treat the following scenario:
Invoice $100
Credit note $100 (not linked to invoice)
Incoming payment:
Invoice $100 les 2.5% settlement disount = $97.5
Credit note $100 less no settlement disoucnt = $100
this will calculate that we owe the customer $2.5 which is incorrect.
Please help.

Hi Riana,
It is not system behavior but because your client's no link credit notes. Since they have not linked the credit notes to the invoice, system will never know how to adjust it. They have to use manual JE to adjust any discrepancies.
Thanks,
Gordon
