Customer chooses sort of products (price, newest etc) - every other site has this so BC must?
Hi,
Does anyone know how to allow the customers to choose the sort order of some pages?
I don't know about you, but I shop online a lot. Whenever I go to the sale page if I feel like buying something but I know I don't really 'need' anything, I always sort the products from cheapest to most expensive.. Anyone that shops on Asos will know what I mean... And for stores I shop at every few weeks I always sort from Newest to Oldest (as who really trusts those New products pages)..
Most websites have this option and I was thinking on the weekend that almost every time I shop online I do this. Maybe it's a female thing wanting the best value but in today's economic climate I'm suprised we can't do this in BC. I always get annoyed with a website that doesn't have basic functions and to be honest if I was shoping on our website I'd be pretty unimpressed we can't do this so surely our customers feel the same way.
Any ideas?
Hi there,
BC offers two features that you may possibly use. Once is the catalogue browse panel and the other is the product search form. You could convert the product search form into a single button that will return the products in the search results (hide the keyword field) and sort the products according to the dropdown selection. This could be price, alphabet etc. Otherwise you may want to look at some jQuery sorting techniques.
Cheers,

How to deal with the product price difference g/l account
Hi:
When I went to the transaction fs10n to look at the g/l account 281500(gain from own product price differences) and I found there has 40 EUR in credit column,then the cumulative balance is credit 40 EUR,obviously this 40 EUR credit is due to the difference between order price and invoice price. My question is how to deal with it?The Finance department needs to coordinate it with the Purchasing on the correct price. If the invoice price is the correct one, then there is a need to recognize the difference as per accounting standard. If in case that the order price is the correct one, they should inform the Vendor about it and once the Debit or Credit note is received, you just need to post it as "subsequent debit or credit" the amount will offset to this price difference.

MacBook Pro won't stay asleep with external monitor attached. When sleep is selected from the Apple menu the computer will go to sleep only to continually wake up...go back to sleep...wake up...etc. every few seconds. This only happens when using the external monitor. Does anyone have any suggestions?
Mine does that too. The worst thing is when it goes to sleep, then wakes up and keeps running while the lid is closed and it is wrapped up in a case. I am afraid when the hot weather comes it is going to burn up. I am hoping Apple fixes it in the software or they may have a melted MBP to replace.
Then when I open the lid it is crashed running at fill tilt, pumping out heat to beat the band. I am forced to hold the button down and reboot.
I wiped my hard disk and reinstalled my OS, but it didn't help. I reversed my OS to 10.5.0 and it solved the DVI problem but still won't sleep. This post will probably be deleted by Apple, they did it a few days ago. I just don't know what to do, and I consider myself a real Apple expert. Just hoping you realize you are not the only one. -
Sort the products in transaction COMM_PCAT_ADM
Hi All,
We are using catalog views in transaction COMM_PCAT_ADM, but it's difficult
for user to tick/choose the product id, cause of such many of products and
not sorted.
Can someone tell me how to sort the product id in product catalog views ?
or is there any function to search product id ?
Your help is very appreciated.
Thank you in advanced.
JayaHi Jaya,
The products in VIEWS are displyed as per the products assigned in the Catalog Areas or Sub-catalog area.
The sequence in which the products are displayed is as per the products assigned in the Catalog Areas or Sub-catalog area.
1.Unfortunately as a STANDARD there is no provision to search the product/s in the VIEW section in comm_pcat_adm
2. Sorting is also not possible in the views section. You need to develop a custom program to fetch all the products in VIEWS to an excel file and after SORTING upload the same file.
Hope this will help

Dear Experts,
my customer wants to make price studies for the finished products, they want when the exchange rate of dollar changed that they can make studies for all current products by changing the raw materials price and see their effects on finished products before they make any actual changes because raw materials are standard not average I tried to use Reference and Simulation Costing but I can do that for just one product but they need to do that for all products for example when I change the price of one raw material I can see the effect on all products price to make a decision.
so I need your advice if there is another solution in SAP
Thanks
NassarHi Nassar,
The costing results are stored in DB tables. There is no way to check all changes on-the-fly.
I can only think of make CK40N costing in another costing version. But still data will be stored in DB.

CCM 2.0: Alphabetic sorting of product categories
Hi,
We are using CCM 2.0. I am interesting in influencing the sorting of product categories during a catalog search. We use both the hierarchy and the index search.
It seems that the product categories are sorted by the product category number. We would prefer to provide an alphabetic sorting of product category description to the employees.
Can we influence this? and if so how?
Your reply is highly appreciated.
Kind regards,
Martijn
P.S. Edit Catalogs > tab Content > Radio button "Sort by" ID or Description keeps jumping back to ID as default even after saving.
Message was edited by: M. RoggebandHi Martijn
Unfortunately there is no simple way to influence the sorting of categories in the hierarchy search. We are focusing the same problem. Due to this problem we recently wrote an OSS-Call to SAP. They replied that this system behavior (sort by category-id) is standard and we should either modify our system or send a customer request. We are doing both. Last week I sent a customer request to SAP and soon we will try to modify the method SORT_CATEGORY_LIST in an appropriate way.
If you think SAP should solve this problem, please send a customer request to SAP too. The more requests they get the better chance we have, that they will do something.
Kind regards

Traceability from customer invoice to initial production order
Scenario : We have activated basic management for Raw material, semi finished, Finished materials. (fert, halb, herb) Semi finished material is sent from one plant to other plant and finally
invoice raised to customer at receiving plant. We need to track the Initial production order for an invoice or for supplies made during a particular period.
In routing we have 22 operations both in house and external with separate semi-finished codes.
Ex: Material A u2013 Inhouse, Material B u2013 External, Material C u2013 Inhouse etc.,
Bill of Material maintained respectively.
Ex: Semi-Finished code X
.1 B EXTERNAL
..2 A IN HOUSE
After doing in house operations A material is inwarded to a location and sent to subcontractor against 541 movement. Here the Batches are entered manually.
After receipt of Material B from subcontractor Again one more production order is released with purchase order as reference in batch .
After In house operations Material X is moved to Location and Stock Transfer Invoice raised to
other plant. By doing VL10B.
Bill of material at receiving plant
Receiving plant Finished code Y
.1 S EXTERNAL
.2 R IN HOUSE
.3 X STOCK TRANSFERRED MATERIAL RECEIVED
MIGO is done at receiving plant with reference to outbound delivery.
Production order is released at receiving plant under R material and X will be issued.
MIGO done against production order and and R material sent to Subcontractor with production order as reference in Batch.
S material is received from subcontractor with Purchase order as reference in batch.
Production order released on Y material and S material is issued.
MIGO is done for Y material against production order with production order number as Batch.
Invoice raised for Y material with reference as Production order as Batch.
Here We need to track the Initial Production order.
Advance thanks for suggetions/advice
regards
hariHi,
Use the batch where used list for the batch .T code MB56.It will give the entire history of that batch incuding in the prduction orders. You will be having the batch number of raw material , you cdan use this for the purpose.
Also may this link will be useful for finding out the production order number.

How to Control Finished Product Price based on Raw Material
Hi Experts,
Our client manufactures Steel Products where basic Raw Material is Steel.
Customer will give annual contract/Sales Order on the rate prevailing on the contract date. But there is clause that if Steel prices increase / decrease by 5% then correspondingly Finished product price will change by 3%.
How can this be mapped in SAP where by based on Raw Material price, Finished product can vary?
RegardsHi Ajay,
Please go through this link. you will get an idea
Price list change according to raw material cost

Customizing column sorting in new jsf table
The new JSF table in the creator 2 is great. I like it. It includes so many out of the box features. It is the reason we use the creator for our current project.
But I cannot figure out how to customize the column sorting.
Why do I need column sorting?
I need to sort a column that can include ad IP address or a host name. Our customer can either use a host name or an IP address to address a device in the network, both in the same column.
Now sorting an IP address is already difficult. It is actually a sort over a 4 byte number. Sorting over host names is normal alphabetic string sorting.
How to sort over both in the same column?
This cannot be done using standard sorting. I need to use a validator or something similar to customize the sorting of this column.
Can anybody help me with a hint if:
1- Customizing sorting over a column is possible. (I really would like to keep all other sorting features (icons, multi column support...)).
2- A hint or code sample, how to do this.
If this is not possible, I urge the creator team to think of implementing this soon. Otherwise one killer feature of the creator 2 will lose a lot of its teeth.Thx mayagiri for your reply!
But including the src-code for the dataprovider package into a test project, and debugging in the creator-ide has done the thing!
Here our solution:
Class ToCompare is the object type which address field displayed in a page, simply containing a table with 2 adress colums, that can be sorted either according to our ip/hostname-comparison or according to String.compare().
* ToCompare.java
* Created on 10. Februar 2006, 10:41
* This class is a basic model object,
* with a field - String address - according
* to which it shall be sortable.
package comparator;
* @author mock
public class ToCompare {
* holds the IP or Host address
private String address=null;
* Instance of a Comparator class that
* provides our sorting algorithm
private RcHostComparator hostComparator=null;
/** Creates a new instance of ToCompare */
public ToCompare() {
this("defaultHost");
* when creating a new ToCompare instance,
* the hostComparator is created for it
* @ param aAddress - IP or Hostname
public ToCompare(String aAddress) {
address=aAddress;
hostComparator=new RcHostComparator(address);
public String getAddress() {
return address;
public RcHostComparator getHostComparator() {
return hostComparator;
}Here the code of the Class RcHostComparator, it is created with the address field of the ToCompare object that it holds. It first checks if the address field is an IP or not, and then chooses the comparison algorithm according to its own field state and the field state of the object to compare to:
* RcHostComparator.java
* Created on 10. Februar 2006, 10:43
* This class is used to provide a method for
* comparing objects that have an address field,
* containing either IP adresses or hostnames.
package comparator;
import java.text.CollationKey;
import java.text.Collator;
import java.util.Comparator;
import java.util.Locale;
* @author mock
public class RcHostComparator implements Comparator
* holds the IP or Host address
private String address=null;
* Is the address an IP
private boolean isIPAddress=false;
* if (!isIPAddress) this is created out of the address
* to provide a performant way of comparing it with another
* CollationKey, in order to sort Strings localized
* @ see java.text.Collator
* @ see java.text.CollationKey
private CollationKey hostnameCollationKey=null;
* if (isIPAddress) this array holds
* the 4 byte of the Ip address to compare
private int[] intValues=null;
* minimum for IP bytes/ints
private static final int minIntValue=0;
* maximum for IP bytes/ints
private static final int maxIntValue=255;
* Creates a new instance of IpComparator
* @ param aAddress - holds the IP or Host address
public RcHostComparator(String aAddress) {
address=aAddress;
* check if address is an IP
isIPAddress=checkIP();
* if Hostname -> instantiate localized CollationKeys
if(!isIPAddress){
Collator _localeCollator=Collator.getInstance(Locale.getDefault());
hostnameCollationKey=_localeCollator.getCollationKey(address);
}else{}
* Here the comparison of the address fields is done.
* There a 4 cases:
* -1 both Hostnames
* -2 aObject1 IP, aObject2 Hostname
* -3 aObject1 Hostname, aObject2 IP
* -4 both IPs
* @ param aObject1, aObject2 - Comparator objects
public int compare(Object aObject1, Object aObject2)
int _result= 0;
if(aObject1 instanceof RcHostComparator && aObject2 instanceof RcHostComparator )
RcHostComparator _ipComparator1=(RcHostComparator)aObject1;
RcHostComparator _ipComparator2=(RcHostComparator)aObject2;
* Compare algorithms, according to address types
if(!_ipComparator1.isIPAddress()&&!_ipComparator2.isIPAddress()){
* If both addresses are Strings use collationKey.compareTo(Object o)
_result=_ipComparator1.getHostnameCollationKey().compareTo(_ipComparator2.getHostnameCollationKey());
}else{
* IPs are smaller than Strings -> aObject1 < aObject2
if(_ipComparator1.isIPAddress()&&!_ipComparator2.isIPAddress()){

}The page bean holds an array of ToCompare objects. It is the model for a new table component, hold by an ObjectArrayDataProvider. Here a code excerpt:

new ToCompare("2.1.1.1"),
new ToCompare("9.1.1.1"),

new ToCompare("0172.0172.0172.0172"),
new ToCompare("123.1.1.1"),
new ToCompare("a"),
new ToCompare("o"),
new ToCompare("u"),
new ToCompare("z"),
new ToCompare("�"),
new ToCompare("�"),
new ToCompare("�")
* This method is automatically generated, so any user-specified code inserted
* here is subject to being replaced
private void _init() throws Exception
objectArrayDataProvider1.setArray(toCompare);
private TableRowGroup tableRowGroup1 = new TableRowGroup();
private ObjectArrayDataProvider objectArrayDataProvider1 = new ObjectArrayDataProvider();
}The relevant .jsp section for the two column table looks like:
<ui:tableRowGroup binding="#{Page1.tableRowGroup1}" id="tableRowGroup1" rows="10" sourceData="#{Page1.objectArrayDataProvider1}" sourceVar="currentRow">
<ui:tableColumn binding="#{Page1.tableColumn1}" headerText="SortIP" id="tableColumn1" sort="#{currentRow.value['hostComparator']}">

</ui:tableColumn>
</ui:tableRowGroup>Sorting localized with Locale="DE_de" according to ip/hostcompare sorts:

Please pass on your valuable comments.
Thanking you,

I need sample basic data file containing Product,Market,Measures etc
I need sample basic data file containing Product,Market,Measures etc to load data in to Sample Basic applications. Where can I get this?
As I am the World Domain Lead for Sample.Basic (this is a joke, btw, it's sort of like being King of my front stoop, and besides, I just made it up) I will note two things about CALCDAT.TXT.
1) It is not in columnar format, but instead in Essbase free-form data load format as user2571802 notes. This means if you take a look at it with a text editor, it's a bit confusing to read till you realize that it contains all dimensional information in the data file itself. See the DBAG's section on [Data Sources That Do Not Need A Rules File|http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E10530_01/doc/epm.931/html_esb_dbag/ddlintro.htm#ddlintro1029529].
2) CALCDAT.TXT contains level 0 and calculated results. Just load it -- there's no need to calculate it.

I searched and searched through Bridge and found NO way to save a custom sort (manual) with a name (or a collection if you prefer). I created a manual custom sort in a folder and ran a PS action to reduce the size of each photo and put them into a new folder. When I opened the new folder the sort was alpha, not like the old folder. I now have to manually sort over 300 photos in new folder.
Is there a way to do this and if not, can a script be written for it. I create slide shows and no of hundreds of examples of how I would use this. It is really labor intensive to put the photos in a special order and then have no way to save it for future use.
Any suggestions or help would be appreciated. If I have to pay someone to do this, I will. thanks.I am using Bridge (Version 1.0.4) and CS2 on WinXP, SP2. I am extremely disappointment in a limitation in Bridge that seems to be related to JamesAGrover's challenge to save a manual sort that he has created in a collection.
A review of topics related to manual sorting in these Adobe forums indicate that there is a general limitation to sorting a collection. This limitation seems to exist in any of the Adobe products for Mac or PC that offer the ability to view "collections" of images, for example, Lightroom and Bridge.
A "collection" seems to be a set of file names that are handled independently of the real files themselves. The magic resides in the user's experience of handling the "collection" of filenames as if they were the actual files themselves.
Of course, there is no "magic"; the collection is working with some kind of pointer to the actual files, where ever they may truly reside.
There are many powerful reasons for offering functionality of this kind. The one that primarily interests me is that by working with pointers to the same file from different collections, I can create different subsets of images and unique sort orders without copying the original files. I avoid filling my harddrive with copies, but I can burn thousands of CDs and DVDs each with different selections and sorts.
But unfortunately, inside a "collection", I am unable to execute a manual sort at all. The problem exists if my collection includes files from a single directory or from several different directories (folders). Since this seems to contradict the basic promise of a "collection" of filenames, I keep thinking that I misunderstand the user's interface.
I have set the "View - Sort" menu with every permutation of checks and unchecks for "Ascending Order" and "Manually" with no luck.
I have discovered a workaround to my problem: I have been able to manually sort, and save, a direct view of a real file system directory from the Bridge interface. But that has forced me to create copies of my images in one unique new directory for every selection and sort that I need.
To tie this back to the first post in this topic, I must observe that for me, after creating and manually sorting a collection, I will want to save the collection with its unique and idiosyncratic, manual sort. I don't want to copy the original files umpteen times! It seems that I will encounter the problem described by JamesAGrover.
I wonder if any forum member, or any one at Adobe, has a comment. Specifically I wonder about two things:
1) Am I misunderstanding the user's interface? Is there a setting that I have not discovered?
2) Is there a basic limitation with "collections" that has been removed in CS3? -
Can I sort movies by price, least expensive first, etc. Also, by county of origin. I would like films made in France, Germany or Britain.
Step by step, how did you arrive at seeing this agreement?

Hide/ unhide option for Product prices
Hi All,
We want to implement hide/ unhide option for Product prices i.e. whenever the user wants to unhide the price of a product, the user should click on a link u201CHideu201D and then it should hide the price of all the products. And similarly, when the user clicks on u201CUnhideu201D link, then it should display the prices of all the products.
Can it be done through some config or through some code changes. Can you please let me know how to achieve this.
Thanks,
NikhilHello Nikhil,
I assume that you would want to achieve this at the catalog page level or at a basket level. There is no standard config that can be used at runtime to hide/unhide price elements as per user choice.
What you could do is modify the corresponding JSP files to add your custom logic via combination of some Javascript and div tags.
PS: Refer to the section of the item details div on the order screen which uses similar logic to collapse/unfold item details on click of the arrow buttons.
