Daily forecast - beginner's problems

Hi All,
within my planning implementation I have daily calendar and daily historical data for several previous years.
the task is to forecast account set (0-level members belonging to one parent) for each day of a month basing on the historical data for these days.
I can forecast one account for one day. the script is like this:
FIX(Budg,Income,Final)
SET CREATENONMISSINGBLK ON;
Acc1 (@TREND
(@LIST(Fact03->FY03->"Jan-1",Fact04->FY04->"Jan-1"
,Fact05->FY05->"Jan-1",Fact06->FY06->"Jan-1")
"Fcast-Jan07"->FY07->"Jan-1",LR
endfix;
but how to do it for several accounts and for the days of a month?
thanks in advance.
Andrei

Andy,
thank you very much.
this is great suggestion.
this gave me the forecast for each day of January:
FIX ( @CHILDREN("01 00 00000 00 0000 000"), @ICHILDREN(Jan), Final, FY07 )
SET CREATENONMISSINGBLK ON;
"Fcast-Jan07"
(@TREND
(@LIST(Fact03->FY03->@CURRMBR(Period),Fact04->FY04->@CURRMBR(Period)
,Fact05->FY05->@CURRMBR(Period),Fact06->FY06->@CURRMBR(Period))
@CURRMBR(Period),LR
endfix;

Beginner Has Problem With Loading JDBC Driver Using MySQL

Hi, I am having problem with loading JDBC driver, and need your diagnotic help.
1. I have installed MySQL (C:\mysql), created a databse (soup), and created a littel table (VIDEOS). I am able to see the table in the console:
sql> select * from videos
2. I have downloaded the latest version of Connector/J (mysql-connector-java-3.1.0-alpha.zip), and unzip the zip file into my C:\ directory.
3. I copied the mysql-connector-java-3.1.0-alpha-bin.jar to the C:\j2sdk1.4.1_02\jre\lib\ext folder and it is in my CLASSPATH
4. MySQL server is running
C:\> C:\mysql\bin\mysqld-nt --standalone
5. open another DOS window and use the database
mysql>USE SOUP
6. succesfully compiled a Java program (javac Test.java):
import java.sql.* ;
public class Test
public static void main( String[] args )
try
Class.forName("org.gjt.mm.mysql.Driver").newInstance();
try
Connection con = DriverManager.getConnection( "jdbc:mysql://localhost:3306/soup" );
try
Statement statement = con.createStatement();
ResultSet rs = statement.executeQuery("SELECT TITLE FROM VIDEOS");
while ( rs.next() )
System.out.println( rs.getString( "TITLE" ) );
rs.close();
statement.close();
catch ( SQLException e )
System.out.println( "JDBC error: " + e );
finally
con.close();
catch( SQLException e )
System.out.println( "could not get JDBC connection: " + e );
catch( Exception e )
System.out.println( "could not load JDBC driver: " + e );
7. when I run the Java program (java Test), I got
the message:
could not load JDBC driver: java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: org.gjt.mm.mysql.Driver
What am I missing?

Hi,
I missed to specify test in my last post.
Try running your program by explicitly setting the classspath when
running your program . java -classpath c:\mysql-connector-java-3.1.0-alpha-bin.jar test
Make sure your jar file contains org.gjt.mm.mysql.Driver class

Beginner - Deploytool problems

Hi Everyone,
I am just starting to learn to run the j2ee server and have run into problems with the 'depoloytool'. Whenever the i try to connect to the server (localhost:4848) via the deploytool the deploytool hangs. Wierdly, the problem goes away when the network cable is disconnected. deploytool also detects an incorrect password and hangs only when the password is correct.
I have verified the following
1) My OS is supported. My OS is Windows XP Professional
2) The right version of jsdk is installed (j2sdk1.4.2)
3) The right version of j2ee is installed (j2sdkee1.4)
4) Server was running before deploytool was started. Some deployed applications were also verified from the web browser.
I have tried fiddling with the following
1) the java.policy file in the jre\lib\security folder to allow "listen,accept,connect,resolve" privileges to localhost
2) The hosts file to specify 127.0.0.1 as localhost.
I am at loss of what to do. If anyone has any ideas please help me.
I have gone through the these forums and have come across one similar thread.

Hey
I had this problem on both windows XP pro and linux
<quick solution>
edit all your xml config files so that they refer to "localhost", not your computer network name
<quick solution>
The reason:
The problem for me was that some of the configuration files referred to my computer as its fully qualified network name, terrence.
the files (for me) are:
<install-dir>/domains/domain1/server/config/*.xml
I use a NAT dsl modem, so the modem was just discarding all the requests to connect to terrence were getting dropped (no pinholes set up!)
even though deploytool calls your local computer localhost, it still tries to acces it thru ur network name some times, i think
Hope that helps
P.S. Any idea why sun doesnt just use "localhost" in the config files?

Beginner CSS problems and questions

I'm trying to learn CSS, but first, I have to knock out this simple site for a client, CSS or not, asap.
Problem #1:
Here is the page: http://larrysullivandesign.com/sourceprintmedia.com/_contact.html
Here is the style sheet: http://larrysullivandesign.com/sourceprintmedia.com/sourceprintmedia.css
I want the email link the same font size as the text around it, which is:
class="bodycopy-content"
I don't understand why it appears in the text-links page bottom (class="link-typeA") size.
Problem #2:
Dreamweaver WYSIWYG shows the text links at page bottom in the #00F blue, (see attached jpg: "scrncap_DW_WYSIWYG.jpg) when clearly they should display only as the grey in the external stylesheet. In the browser, they look good. Frustrating, DW bug?
Problem #3:
I tried to merge all the CSS into one style sheet but no matter what I try, DW won't let me. Now I have 3 CSS categories. (see attached jpg "scrncap-csspanel.jpg") How come I can't have any/all style sheets in one?
thanks in advance!
-Larry

Problem #1:
You have defined a font size (8px - which btw, renders extremely small on my 1440x900 laptop, suggestion to follow) for the "a" tag. Because of this any link regardless of where it is will be that font size. Personally speaking I would recommend taking the font-size off of the "a" tag in your CSS document and then let the other classes control the font size throughout your page.
Problem #2:
You defined a class fine, but links do not work on a class. They will always work on a:link, a:active, a:visited, and a:hover. With this in mind what you need to do to change the color of links in a particular area is to do the following:
.link-typeA a { CSS stuff goes here }
That will change the links in that class to have certain features.
Problem #3:
This has to do with code in the header of your page where you have re-declared link styles. Delete that from your page and you will be set
Now back to Problem #1 about the fonts. Your best bet is to use "em" to define your font size. Think of the EM like a multiplier. It takes the default size of the end-users settings and 1.1em would be 1.1x larger than the default font, 2em would be twice as large, and .5em would be half the size. This way your text is readable on all screens regardless of the end-users resolution.

Help with CSS beginner layout problem?

Making my first CSS website. See http://www.capeannphysicaltherapy.com/index-test.html
The DIV layout held up fine even after I copied text into the #main_text DIV. But when I turn it into html the #main_content DIV jumps down even though the text stays in place. I'd appreciate any help.
Thanks

Simple beginner script problem

I'm reading Scripting InDesign CS3/4 with Javascript from O'Reilly and this simple example doesn't seem to work. Can someone please see what's up?
Another useful application of split () and join () is processing paragraphs in a text frame. To see how this works, create a new InDesign document; draw a text frame big enough to hold about half a dozen names; and type a list of half a dozen names, one a line. Select the text frame or place the cursor somewhere in the list. The following script sorts the list alphabetically:
// check that a story is selected
if (app.selection[0].parentStory.constructor.name!="Story")
exit ( );
// create an array of paragraphs by splitting the story on hard returns
myArray = app.selection[0].parentStory.contents.split ("\r");
// sort the array
myArray.sort ( );
// join the array as one string separated by hard returns
myString = myArray.join ("\r");
// replace the contents of the selected story with myString
app.selection[0].parentStory.contents = myString;

It highlights
if (app.selection[0].parentStory.constructor.name!="Story")
and says undefined is not an object
Edit: solution, I had to choose Adobe InDesign CS5 from the ESTK menu instead of ESTK CS5

Forecast weekly and daily data using BPS

Hi, we forecast cash on a weekly basis for 16 weeks and also do the current month daily forecast (daily forecast data gets rolled up to the current month weekly forecast numbers, so technically we do 12-13 weeks forecast on a weekly basis)...How can I set up such a scenario where both daily and monthly forecasting can be done...
Also, I have only one characteristic(line of business) other than time characteristics (Day, week, month, year).
We are on SEM-BPS 3.2
Thanks for the help,

Hi Srinath, users can enter both Daily and Weekly forecasting. They do daily forecast for current month and also do 16 week forecast (which includes the current month). How can I integrate the current month daily with Weekly forecast. Any time they change the daily forecast, they want the weekly forecast for the current month to get updated based on the new data. I created a layout for daily with week as a selection variable. that way when they enter daily data, week infoObject info gets loaded. But how can I update the daily infoobject when they enter the weekly data.
I created two levels for Daily and Weekly before but it creates duplicates for weekly data...
Daily Data
Line of Business | day               | week                        | Key Figure |
   1                        03/01/08           1                             10.00
   1                        03/02/08           1                             11.00
   1                        03/03/08           1                             12.00
   1                        03/04/08           1                             13.00
   1                        03/05/08           1                             14.00
Weekly Data
Line of Business | day               | week                        | Key Figure |
   1                                             1                             60.00
How can I include a day field in the weekly data forecast. I may have to distribute the weekly data to each day of the week. kind of lost.
Thanks,

Forecast Transfer to R/3 in Daily/Weekly buckets

Hi,
We have 2 planning areas in DP - Weekly and daily planning area. For the first 3 weeks, the forecast will be transferred to R/3 in daily buckets and for the remaining 2 weeks, the forecast will be transferred in weekly buckets. I have created 2 separate transfer profiles - one for daily transfer from the daily planning book and another one for weekly transfer from weekly planning book. When I run the forecast transfer from the daily planning book for the first 3 weeks, the forecast gets successfully transferred to R/3 Demand management. But, when I run the forecast transfer from the weekly planning book for Weeks 4 & 5, the forecast gets released successfully although it overwrites the previous forecast in daily buckets. Please bear in mind that the time periods for daily and weekly transfer are different. The same thing happens if I run the weekly transfer first and then do the daily transfer. For another location, we release the forecast to SNP in the same way and it works fine. Does anyone has any clues about this situation? Thanks.

Hello,
The following are the planning book/data views that I am using to transfer forecast
Planning book2: Background Daily Planning book
Dataview2: Daily Forecast Transfer View
Time bucket profile: 21 days
Transfer profile: Daily Transfer profile (Released to active version A)
Activity: Daily Transfer Activity
Job: Daily Transfer Job (based on planing book2 and data view2)
Planning book1: Background Weekly Planning book
Dataview1: Weekly Forecast Transfer View (Offset field is set to 3 so that forecast could be transferred to weeks 4 & 5.
Time bucket profile: 2Weeks
Transfer profile: Weekly Transfer profile (Released to active version A)
Activity: Weekly Transfer Activity
Job:Weekly Transfer Job ( based on planing book1 and data view1)
Yes, I am transferring both the daily and weekly forecast to the same active version, but different time horizons. So, in order to do this, do I need to transfer to 2 different active versions. If this is the case, can DRP be able to use forecast from 2 active versions?

SAP Forecast & Replenishment flat forecast (plain)

Hi,
I am currently configuring SAP F&R (Forecast & Replenishment) and I've found that it doesn't matter which is the configuration of any of our product / locations and we will always find a flat forecast after FR Processor run.
The forecast will take in consideration the DIFs so it will show the spikes, but no consumption fluctuations will be shown when the forecast is weekly displayed during a non-DIF period. The dayweights are dynamically calculated since the daily-forecast output reflects different values (only weekly forecast is constant).
If anyone had this problem or can give me any indications about how could it be resolved I would really appreciate it.
Kind regards,
Xavi

Hi Xavi.
I am configuring SAP F&R 4.1 too. I am not sure about your problem but the flat forecast after FR Processor could be because your time serie data (consumption values) are very constants (similar values). On the other hand what Replenishment Type do you have selected in F&R Mass Maintainance for Location / Product?.
In my case I have a problem with automatic order proposals release since I don't get the automatic release. I use Replenishment Type 11 and I have the profiles with large restrecitions to avoid the exception cases. I get forcasting and automatic order proposals but no automatic release. The system generates this message exception: (High Priority) Exception-based release check enforces manual release for order prop. 0000000179.
If anyone had this problem or can give me any indications about how could it be resolved I would really appreciate it.
We could get more working together.
Best regards.
Alberto.

Cvs daily snapshot packages

Hi there,
I have some questions about cvs daily snapshot.
The problem is for the package eo-snapshot in AUR
Here is the PKGBUILD
# Contributor: Sebastien Piccand <[email protected]>
pkgname=eo-snapshot
pkgver=20060411
_ver=11Apr2006
pkgrel=1
pkgdesc="EO is a templates-based, ANSI-C++ compliant evolutionary computation library"
url="http://eodev.sourceforge.net/"
license="LGPL"
depends=()
source=(http://www.lri.fr/~marc/EO/snapshot/eo_src.tgz)
md5sums=('f4e001d00405292712e5a62599749c3d')
build() {
cd $startdir/src/eo${_ver}
./autogen.sh
./configure --prefix=/usr
make || return 1
make DESTDIR=$startdir/pkg install
I have to remove the _ver variable which is not required.
I have to use the daily snapshot because:
1. The stable version does not compile
2. I don't have access to CVS
The version(=folderOfSources=date) of the package is a bit weird and stored as:
11Apr2006.
I was asked to change the version so I moved it to 20060411 which seems to be the case for the usual snapshots.
I used the variable _ver so that one has just have to modify the beginning of the PKGBUILD when a new snapshot comes. But it is definitely not really needed so I have to remove it, which means you have to edit the build() function at each snapshot.
A workaround is to use
cd $startdir/src/eo*
instead of
cd $startdir/src/eo11Apr2006
in the build(function)
In this case now the version of the snapshot is only discriminated by:
1. the pkgver
2. the md5sum
But the package is updated daily and there should be a way to simplify the update process. The daily snapshot does not contain the date so we can't have access to the previous snapshot.
Can I, as for the CVS versions, use an empty md5sum() and just the date for the pkgver ?
Or should the package be a mess to maintain ?
Thanks

Thanks a lot.
The package is working.
I now have some questions about the provides() and conflicts() fields of some packages.
Here are 2 packages I put on AUR recently: eo-snapshot, eo-cvs
I am thinking of removing eo-snapshot but it can be good to keep it for people who don't have access to CVS.
In this case eo-snapshot and eo-cvs will conflict. Once a new, working, stable version of eo will be out, I (or anybody) will probably make a package (called eo).
So I am thinking of using the fields provides=('eo') for both packages, and conflicts=('eo-snapshot') or ('eo-cvs')
Is it the right thing to do ?
An other question:
libge can use galib if it is compiled with galib support, so should I make a libge-galib version (with galib in makedepends) or put a comment somewhere (where) that asks the user to install galib before building libge to enable the galib support ?
An other one
eo-cvs(or eo-snapshot) and galib both provide a /usr/lib/libga.a file, so they conflict with one another. Is there any workaround to install both?

Weather 2 and 3 times daily in iCal

I cannot figure this out but I have daily weather forecasts varying between 1, 2 and 3 times on each day (for example, the next 3 days has weather in there 3 times), the rest of the week, it's twice.
What's even more odd is that each of the daily forecasts are different. Today is 90/71 and 87/71 and 87/66 in the 3 occurences.
How do I figure out where these are all coming from and stop it. It has completely cluttered up my iCloud iCal. It's making my iMac desktop a mess, my phones a mess...I just want them gone!
I checked the Accuweather app that was on one ipad and it's turned off for the calendar option.

Are these monitors being detected with serial numbers?
If so, are they identical serail numbers or different ones?

Several problems with CS4 Bridge

I select all images, and go to image processor to make web-size images. Nothing happens.
I process one image in Camera Raw, hit Open, nothing happens.
Bridge has been crashing almost daily, prior to these problems.
Now, any image I process in raw, opens in Raw dialogue, and I can't open. So, once I process, I can't open it!

Don't have CS4 installed anymore but it looks to me you have the latest updated version. (can you also check the Output Module and see if you have the option for Header and Footer, if not you could also use the Adobe Output Module to update and see if that helps.)
In general restarting Bridge holding down option key and refresh prefs solves many problems. You can also quit Bridge, go to the user library in your user account and from user/library/ caches/Adobe/BridgeCS4 delete both cache file and plug in. (it refreshes itself after restarting Bridge with a new empty one and you will have to recache which can take some time)
Then from same user library go to application support/Adobe/BridgeCS4/Workspaces and in here delete the file called: !!LastMenu.workspace
Finally from same user library preferences folder find and delete the Bridge plist file (com.adobe.bridge3.plist) It is version 3 for Bridge that came with CS4 so this the one you must delete.
Then use Apple Disk utility (or Cocktail or other maintenance software) and check and repair your disk permissions. After this restart Bridge Holding down option key again and again choose reset preferences.
For image processor problems you also might want to reset the preferences for PS but first try the above method for a start.

Importing weekly or monthly Forecasts for MRP

I would like to import a weekly or monthly Sales Forecast for MRP using the DTW.
If it is possible, can anyone tell me how? The DTW templates seems to expect Daily forecasts.
As a second question, the DTW template for the Forecast headers has a field called Numerator. Can anyone tell me what it is used for?
Regards,
Douglas

I wondered if the Numerator was a setting for the forecast type. However, it seems to be OFCT.AbsId - the internal key of the forecast.
That means that it looks like DTW does not have a field to set OFCT.FormView, so you cannot import forecasts other than Daily.
Can anyone confirm if that is the case?
Regards,
Douglas

Executing Forecast for material - original and corrected forecast values

Hi,
When we execute a forecast for amaterial that has a corrected forecast value this info is then moved the the correcponding period to the historical value. There are two historical values, the original forcast value and the corrected one. I would expect my original and corrected values to be moved to the hostorical values indvidually but what happens is that both the original and corrected historical take their value from the original forcast and the corrected vale is lost.
Is this what should happen or can this be corrected?
Thanks

I just forgot to execute forecast calculation in forecasting view, now problem gets solved, sorry, then I need to close it.
