Destruction PO Process

Hi I want to design a new process for destruction / scrap, it is like this:
1. We create a subcontract PO - with custom doc type on a material / text
2. This PO has account assignment
3. The components are the materials that need to be destroyed
4. The vendor is paid for the destrruction service
5. Once vendor completes destruction , the GR is posted.
6. The GR will post for the account assigned material, it should then remove the materials in the component from inventory with the scrap movement type. ( we dont want 543 as it will clash with account assignement for a similair combination)

Hi,
Lets Try to put it in bit other way!
in the defined process of yours you are not reciving any material in return, so we can not go for subcontracting as GR will going to inward somthing.
And u r going to pay for distruction service only. so lets try to put a simple process.
1. Create a service PO with the vendor
2. send the material with that PO and offline gate pass.
3. vendor will only going to send serive bill with service tax, if I'm not getting it wrong.
4. do the service entry & IV to clear the payment.
5. once you create the service entry, scrap the material with 551 and add the service entry sheet number in text for tracking.
or, if think in ur way, it may be in this way
1. Create a subcontracting PO. with material component as same material for which u r creating PO (recursive BOM)
2. transfer the material with 541 mvt & create subcontracting challan subsiquently to vendor
3. now once vendor raise the bill, do GR. system will again bing the material back with FI entry in process charges. ( But u'll not recive any material here actually)
4. now do scrap posting with 551 mvt on that material.
5. clear the bills for payment wrt to PO.
or, need to do custom process.

  • Sticky proposal: Logic Pro (first draft)

    Ok, here's a first draft of the proposed sticky for this forum. After looking at what we had, I decided to basically do it in four parts - introductory stuff (please post version numbers etc), problem solvers, tips, and audio general stuff.
    I'm not making this a work of art, but value feedback in order to make this useful before we ask the mods for a sticky. It's not complete, such a task is a much bigger job, but it's a start. What's not there? What's confusing? Is it too much stuff? Too newbie unfriendly?
    When we are happy I will probably style/format it a little better as well.
    Lemme know - cheers,
    This is a compilation of Logic tips, useful threads and information for Logic Pro users, compiled mostly by Eriksimon (thanks!) with additional contributions from Bee Jay and (final forum member list to be completed)
    - Getting the best help from the Apple Logic Pro Discussions
    This forum is intended to be a user-to-user support form to users of Logic Pro.
    Please keep your posts on the topic of Logic Pro, or you risk your post being removed for being off-topic. There are plenty of other general audio and recording forums better suited for asking general audio questions.
    Questions about third-party software and hardware are welcome as long as they relate directly to using these products in conjunction with Logic.
    This forum is dedicated to the post-Apple versions of Logic, which means questions for Logic Pro 7, Logic Pro 8, and Logic Pro 9 are welcome. However, please include the version of Logic you are using, in order to give useful advice (as things change between versions.) Better still, put your Logic versions and system information in your signature, to save having to ask for it.
    If you are a user of Logic Express, you should post in the Logic Express forum, rather than the Logic Pro forum, in order to get advice suited to your particular software version (as some things are different between Logic Express and Logic Pro).
    Remember that many questions, especially if you are new to Logic, have been asked multiple times before, so it's good practice to use the Discussions Search feature in the top right of the page to search for previous discussions relating to your issue. You will find a wealth of information. Often you can find a solution to your question without needing to post and have someone type out a response they've already typed out hundreds of times before - or worse yet, have your question ignored.
    Please be respectful of the members on the board at all times - we are happy to help people out, but do so in our own free time and don't have a duty to do so.
    Posts discussing non-Logic related items, off-topic or controversial subjects, abusive posts and harsh language are not welcome and will likely be removed, as will posts discussing illegal software. Please read the Terms of Use of this board for more info at:
    This post is a user-contributed compilation of links to content on this forum, official Apple documentation, and occasionally some other outside content where useful to Logic users. It is not in itself an official Apple document, and Apple do not take responsibility for it's content. It is not intended to be complete or comprehensive, just a helpful start for common issues.

    Okay, here I marked some of the links because at the time it was not clear if they adress things that are still actual in L9.
    It may be a good idea to name the topics that apply to all Logics' (7, 8 and 9) simply Logic Pro (or leave 'm nameless), and the others after the specific version they apply to. The topics with a (9?) behind it, have still to be confirmed to also apply to L9 (.0.2)

  • Using Disk Utility to create a partition on an external drive

    Hi Everyone
    I have a 250gb external HD drive which is currently split into two partitions of Fat32. I'd like to use this drive for storing images of OS X, but when I tried to create an image using the OS X startup DVD, I was told that FAT32 didn't allow large enough file sizes (or something along those lines) in order for me to backup my OS X.
    Disk Utility appears to offer the ability to split partitions on the external drive, i.e. I can select the largest of the two partitions and choose to split it into two 96gb partitions. However, will this be a destructive partition process, and can I reasonably expect my external hard disk to be reformatted with a 96gb Mac OS X formatted partition whilst still keeping two FAT32 partitions and all the data that resides on them?
    Any help is much appreciated!

    You will not be splitting existing partitions. Instead, you will be creating a new partitions from scratch.
    Run Disk Utility. Select the hard drive to be partitioned. Make sure you select the hard drive in the sidebar, not the volume indented below the drive. Go to the Partition tab. If you want one or more of the partitions to be MS-DOS, you must first click on the Options... button. Select the Master Boot Record option and OK. Select Volume Scheme of 3 Partitions. Now set up your three new partitions as you want them, in terms of size and format. For the Mac partition, select Mac OS Extended (Journaled) as the format.

  • Satellite M40-256 - error while booting via CD

    Hello,
    a well-known friend owns Satellite M40-256 which has Windows problem (error while updating/handling by her children).
    She doesn't own an external Toshiba FDD or ODD. Also this portable has no built-in FDD. Buying one only for this issue? NO
    The boot priority has been changed to: CD-network-HDD.
    I've tried another non Toshiba branded ODD (in BIOS not mentioned/found)
    The original ODD works/boots in another pc (via adapter) very great.
    Ive tried several CD/DVDs to boot from (no error displayed): instant-Linux like knoppix, suse, other windows CDs, recovery CD, ... no success
    Every time the same result: the laptop has a black screen, the ODD speeds up and after about 3 to 5 seconds windows starts with the black-white progress bar.
    I also tried to press C to force booting from CD.
    Some time ago, I had only access to windows in secured mode. But after uninstalling some updates it ends in a licence problem. This issue can be only solved by booting windows-cd via cd.
    It has a Toshiba bios 1.00 (interesting, seems quite old).
    I've trying at the moment to boot via network. Does the Toshiba show some messages about succeeding/failing at boot via network or CD?
    Has setting the execution bit an influence on behaviour?
    Does anybody know a solution booting windows?
    Thanks in advance

    Thanks for help.
    I will look for an other ODD from Toshiba trying for boot.
    Does the toshiba bios show messages about booting via cd or network? Even choosing network ends in a faulty Windows boot.
    After choosing an item there's no message while booting
    As I mentioned: the most interesting issue is ODD works/boots well via adapter in a normal pc and also after windows has been started (secured mode). But no boot possible.
    I suspect meanwhile BIOS or Mainboard. But is there a chance for update in secured mode? (the only thing it starts is "secured with prompt"). Cats bites itself in tail.
    BIOS also was saved with default setup. Nothing changed.
    In event viewer I've found entry about probs with hard-drive and controller.
    Does a destructive data processing influence the toshiba bios

  • RAW filter not displaying correctly

    Hi guys,
    i have recently started using Photoshop CC and love the idea of using the Camera RAW engine as a filter i can go back and revisit if needs be, the problem i have is that when i convert my 32bit image to a smart object and then use the RAW filter any alterations i make in ACR don't seem to transfer properly over to photoshop once i ok my alterations. The overall look is usually way to bright and doesnt seem to hold the quality of all the tones. Is this a 32 bit issue as i don't tend to get it so much with 16 bit files.   I am running PS CC 64bit.
    Any help would be greatfully accepted, it's driving me nuts.
    thanks
    Lee

    There is also a Camera RAW forum you may want to ask in.   Perhaps camera raw does not support 32 bit depth Color.  I do not do HDR stuff so I have no knowledge about Adobe 32 bit color depth support.
    https://blogs.adobe.com/richardcurtis/?p=1044http://
    In there I see this also, turn on the “Complete Toning in Adobe Camera Raw” (the histogram is greyed out once this box is checked).
    The “Complete Toning in Adobe Camera Raw” will open the combined image into Camera Raw, enabling non destructive 32bit processing.

  • Intensify as external editor: how, and how well, does it work?

    Intensify from developer macphun I have assigned as an image editor in iPhoto Preferences/Advanced.  In iPhoto when i click on Edit the image opens in Intensity and can be edited.  Unfortunately, saving after editing the image presents a standard file dialog offering to save the edited image in Documents.  Getting the edited image back into iPhoto requires importing.  Afterwards other data, such as Places, Faces and notes, are gone, although the original unedited photo remains in iPhoto and still has the data. 
    To edit with Intensify seems to require exporting, editing, then re-importing the photo.  Is this how all iPhoto external editors work?  I had thought that an external editor would substitute for iPhoto's editor and edit the existing photo while it remained in the iPhoto library  I see on the MacPhun web site that Intensify Pro can be run "...as either a standalone app or as a plug-in to Adobe Photoshop, Adobe Photoshop Elements, Adobe Photoshop Lightroom and Apple Aperture."  Does iPhoto need a plug-in version to simply replace its internal editor? 
    In past versions OS X allowed applications to provide services to one another.  I have not kept up with how services are implemented, but I think I expected iPhoto to essentially use its services when an editing program was selected. 
    Can someone more familiar with OS X services, iPhoto's use of external editors in general and/or Intensity in particular, help me understand this?

    Terrence,
    Thanks for the comments. I appreciate the help.  Sounds like you have considerable expertise in what I need to learn.  Some of what you said I do not understand.  If you could clarify these points it would help me more. 
    You say "No it's not like this with any editor used as an external editor in iPhoto."  I assume you mean an external editor would edit the photo while the photo remains within the iPhoto database, so export to edit followed by import to return the edited photo to iPhoto would not be needed.  Is this correct?
    You say "... Intensify isn't an editor, it's a non-destructive database-based application."  In my very limited reading and experience, it seems Intensity modifies single image files.  How is an application intended to modify image files to change their appearance not an editor?  How is an application intended to work with single files a database-based application? 
    While posting here I also asked MacPhun support a similar question.  They replied "This editing procedure is fine, you can send the edited image from Intensify to iPhoto as shown at the screenshot attached." 
    The menu choice shown does allow saving in iPhoto after pressing in Intensity.  However, the edited image imported into iPhoto has lost metadata such as found faces, places and comments associated with the original, and it is placed in a new Event.  That MacPhun support refers to the product of what Intensity does as "the edited image" shows why I referred to Intensity as an image editor. 
    You say "In essence, you cannot use a non-destructive processor as an editor" yet "With Aperture I have used it as a plug-in."  To me this sounds like one can use Intensity as a non-destructive processor if Intensity's function is accessed as a plug-in.  That is, the necessity to export images from iPhoto to "process" (what I would call edit) them in Intensity results from how Intensity and iPhoto access the image files, not from the type of processing involved. 
    You say "This has nothing to do with services ..."  Agreed.  I mentioned services because I thought one application modifying data for another seemed like a service. 
    On further consideration I realize that non-destructive, eh, processing of an image requires storing the original plus the processing steps which have been implemented.  This seems similar to what iPhoto's built-in editing functions do.  However, I suspect Intensity's more complex processing of the image requires a more complex file structure, which iPhoto cannot read or write. 
    Supporting this idea of different file structures, I see my originals in iPhoto are typically JPGs of size 800 KB - 5 MB.  After processing by Intensity, "-edit" is append to the file name, the format changed to tiff, and the file size increase by a factor of 8.  The format conversion and consequent increase in file size I have not seen mentioned in Intensity's literature, but may be of significance to other potential users. 
    You say "There is no plug-in for iPhoto - perhaps you should ask the developers to make one."  Agreed.  Not for iPhoto, which is being terminated, but for its replacement Photos. 

  • Kespersky mobile security.

    hi..
    I installed kespersky mobile security 9.0 in my nokia N 8 few months back but  I forgot the password. As it was for one month only and now of no use, I want to uninstall it but I can't as it doesn't allow to do any thing without password.
    Is there any way I can recover my password or I can Uninstall the software.
    thanks in advance.
    Neo 

    @Kespersky
    You may have to contact the Kaspersky support:http://www.kaspersky.com/contacts
    Suggest that you have a look at this thread:http://forum.kaspersky.com/index.php?showtopic=155189 as although it can be removed by carrying out a "hard reset" this is too destructive a process to recommend on N8.
    I believe that proof of purchase plus IMEI may have to be submitted to Kaspersky Lab.
    Happy to have helped forum with a Support Ratio = 42.5

  • How can i do a destructive processing with my au plug-ins

    here is the chapter from logic 8 user manual below,but where is the audiosuite menu? and what's the meaning of "AudioSuite plug-ins can only be used with hardware addressed by the DAE"?
    i'm fixing a vocal track,and i need to use a pitch tool to change the origenal file offline.
    Using AudioSuite Plug-ins
    The Sample Editor allows the use of AudioSuite plug-ins. These plug-ins work
    destructively—the result of the editing process is written into the audio file.
    Note: AudioSuite plug-ins can only be used with hardware addressed by the DAE
    (Digidesign Audio Engine). Any properly installed AudioSuite plug-in will be displayed
    in the AudioSuite menu.
    anyone help me? i'm in hurry~~~~~

    You could, however, open Soundtrack Pro (you could even set this to open from a key command in Logic), and destructively apply AU's from within Soundtrack Pro.
    Because you would be applying the AU's on the same Audio File Logic is referencing, Logic should automatically update to reflect these changes, once they are rendered from within STP.

  • External process execution and destruction (multi-platform)

    I want to execute a program from within java and then stop it later on also from within the same java program. Since some programs do not have a way to cleanly kill them off (say exit or stop) I'm looking for a way to kill a process.
    The process is created using:
    process = Runtime.getRuntime().exec(.....);So the Process Object can be used for some thing such as getting output and sending input to the process it can also be used in a form like:
    try {
                        // the process located at i from the list as see if it is valid
                        Process p = (Process) l.get(i);
                        int stillRunning = p.exitValue();
                        if (p.exitValue() != 0) {
    catch (IllegalThreadStateException e) {
                       System.our.print("process is still running");
    }Also you can do something like:
    Process.destroy();However this will only destroy the shell used to create the process on a UNIX system and not the process that was executed as a result that process will then be picked up by init, so process.destroy is not a good solution to killing off a process.
    an example:
    XXXXX  28393 28389  0 14:10 pts/4    00:00:00 /bin/sh /home/egandt/IdeaProjects/JumpstartKit/RunTime/Email_Server/james-2.3.1/bin/phoenix.sh run

    egandt   28497 32547  0 14:10 pts/7    00:00:00 grep 28393In this example james is execute by running run.sh which starts the actual process, now if I kill the process for run.sh then james will be inherent by init (id 1).
    I'm kind of out of ideas how to get around this problem on UNIX I if I had the ID of the process pointed to by the object process that could be used to find the child ID which is actually running, but this does not help on windows?, Any ideas?
    Thanks,

  • IPhoto (most recent) just crashed while uploading photos.  It tried to fix itself and in the process erased every single photo.  Is there any way to retrieve them?

    While uploading my family Christmas photos, my computer went completely blank.  When it started back up again, I had a message that iPhoto had been damaged and needed to be corrected.  So I let it restore and it took several minutes.  Then I had a message that it could not find any photos or data and it restart the computer.  If that didn't work it said to push "option and command" buttons while starting iPhoto.  Nothing worked. 
    It appears as though I have lost thousands and thousands of pictures including all vacations, last moment s with my father, kids entire childhoods.  The photos are invaluable.  I understand that they are on the hard drive.  I have had to restore everything from the hard drive once when my laptop was stolen and I lost about a third of the photos because they came back damaged.  I hope this is not the only solution to the problem. 
    Does anyone know how to restore iPhoto or retieve my photos? What happened?  I am guessing iPhoto is not a reliable place to keep my pictures anymore. 
    Any help would be greatly appreciated. 
    A

    Do you have a back up?
    What version of iPhoto? Assuming 09 or later:
    Option 1
    Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Repair Database. If that doesn't help, then try again, this time using Rebuild Database.
    If that fails:
    Option 2
    Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. (In early versions of Library Manager it's the File -> Rebuild command. In later versions it's under the Library menu.)
    This will create an entirely new library. It will then copy (or try to) your photos and all the associated metadata and versions to this new Library, and arrange it as close as it can to what you had in the damaged Library. It does this based on information it finds in the iPhoto sharing mechanism - but that means that things not shared won't be there, so no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your events, albums and keywords, faces and places back.
    Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one.

  • How do I increase the processing speed on my Pro Retina in Final Cut ProX?

    I have a 2012 pro retina w/ 16 GB, I am trying to make a time lapse video in FinalCut w/ appx 10,000 stills shot at 1080 on a GoPro.  I know this is a lot and life would be a lot easier w/ a Thunderbolt.  I'm using CleanMyMac2 to free up some space and am moving the nearly 80 GB of photos onto a 1TB external to see if that speeds processing up a bit. 
    Any other thoughts/suggestions on increasing speed?

    You can't use Disk Utility to securely erase a Solid State Disk drive, because of the fact that SSD's have limited write capability, unlike hard drives, thus have to protect the sectors from as little writes as possible.
    In fact TRIM (wear leveling) is enabled to write new data to the least used sectors on a SSD each time.
    The NSA guidelines for secure data destruction on SSD's is to grind them into a fine powder.
    If you don't require this level of data destruction, you can do this trick below, but not often or you'll premaurely wear out your SSD.
    Finder > Duplicate a small file repeatly in a folder until slightly more than 50% of the remaining free space on the SSD is used up, (use Activity Monitor) then delete this folder.
    Then duplicate a different small file repeatly in another folder in the same manner.
    What this will do is, because of the small file, OS X will fill the smallest unused spots on the SSD, the duplicates will fill the remaining free space half way, then the second folder will (because of TRIM) fill the other remaining 50% of the free space.
    You can't fill your boot drive or the machine can refuse to function or boot, but because of the wear leveling this should overwrite all your available free space on the SSD once.
    If you have a laptop and TimeMachine, there is a hidden database on the boot drive which will store a copy of the deleted data.
    Then there is "versions" and it's possible a copy of the deleted data is stored in that cache file still on the SSD.
    I can advise how to delete the TimeMachine backup file on the boot drive, but not the "versions" database or what it contains.
    How do I securely delete data from the machine?
    If your really paranoid it's likely best to reformat the entire MacintoshHD partition from recovery and then with a new user, then do the Finder > Duplicate procedure to overwrite the deleted data off the SSD, this way the "versions" and TimeMachine databases are also overwritten.
    Nothing is safe anymore.

  • Saving processed files in original raw (or DNG?) format

    Hello. I'm new to Lightroom, so although I've spent a day or so ploughing through the tutorials, please accept my apologies if my question seems dumb.
    However I can't see an answer to my problem so far.
    It is this: after importing my raw files (CR2) into Lightroom and processing them etc to get them to a result I'm happy with, I'd now like to be able to keep the new, processed version of my images somewhere in Lightroom in the original raw format so that I can quickly access those processed images again in the future and then export in  appropriate formats as I choose, which might be screen jpegs or prints or whatever – different from my first export.
    In other words, I know I can 'save' (export) files to a folder as jpegs etc, but if I subsequently decide to export those same files in a different format (e.g prints), I don't want to have to go back to the original raw files and start the processing all over again to arrive at what I'd already been happy with, in order to re-export.
    I suspect I'm missing something really basic here, but it's so basic I can't work out what it is!
    I suppose another way of reframing the question might be: is there a way I can save and store my processed raw images in Lightroom so that I can access them easily, and not have to re-process them unless I want to?
    I haven't yet got my head around DNG files. Is this part of the solution perhaps?
    Lightroom is incredibly fantastic, but now that I've managed to get my images to where I want them, I don't want to re-visit the processing on them un-necessarily, which is what I seem to be doing at the moment...
    I have Lightroom 5.4 on a Macbook Air running Mavericks OSX 10.9.2 if it makes any difference.
    Thank you, I would be very grateful for your advice.

    While the advice to read Victoria bampton's Quick Start Guide is excellent, I'd like to provide a little shorter piece of philosphy that might help
    Lightroom works differenlty than any other software you may have used in the past. You would be wise to eliminate from your brain your ideas about how to manage files and edits that might have been present in your mind from your use of other photo editing software. You would be wise to start using Lightroom with a clean slate in your mind about how things work. Your statements above show clearly that you are thinking that Lightroom works the same as other photo managing/editing software, and this will lead you/already has lead you in the wrong direction, and in harmful directions.
    So wipe the slate clean. Prepare to learn how to manage files and manage edits from a clean slate.
    Things that are different about Lightroom
    Lightroom is completely non-destructive editing. This means that the pixels in your original photos are NEVER (that's NEVER, a very strong word, chosen intentionally to mean, well it means NEVER) changed by Lightroom. This implies that you do NOT need to make a copy of a photo before you start editing it. Making a copy of a photo before you start editing it is a complete waste of time and disk space. (Also see side comment below)
    Edits are not stored by saving a copy of the edited photo on your hard disk, as Photoshop or Photoshop Elements would do. Edits are not, by default, stored in the photo file itself. Edits are stored in the Lightroom catalog, which is a database file. The edits are essentially stored as numbers (example: Exposure +0.5, contrast +20, Highlights –15) in the catalog. You cannot turn this method of saving edits in the catalog off. As a result, if you close Lightroom after you perform some edits, and then open Lightroom again at some later time, your edits will be in the catalog, and displayed for you automatically, without you taking any specific "save" action or without you taking any specific action to tell Lightroom to display the edits.
    However, some people make the critical mistake of removing the photos from Lightroom after the edits are completed ... this also removes the edits from Lightroom and (in Lightroom's default mode of operation) the edits are now lost forever. Even if you use an option in Lightroom to store the edits with the file, this mode of operation requires you to do more work and you recieve less benefits from Lightroom, than simply leaving the photos in Lightroom. Removing photos from Lightroom after the edits are completed is highly unrecommended.
    Photos are never stored in Lightroom. Photos are always stored on your hard disk. They are stored wherever you put them, or where you instruct Lightroom to put them on your hard disk during Import. Lightroom maintains a link in its database to the file's location on disk. As a result, if you move or rename or delete your photos (or the folders that contain them) outside of Lightroom, then Lightroom cannot find the photos and you can no longer work with them in Lightroom. There are ways to fix this, but the best solution IN MY OPINION, is to no longer manage/organize your photos via operating system/folders/file names and to no longer manage/organize your photos by moving them from here to there after importing them; rather you should manage/organize your photos using Lightroom tools such as keywords and other metadata and then you not only have more powerful tools for managing/organizing than you have in your operating system, but the issue regarding Lightroom not being able to find your photos goes away
    Side comment: in item 1 I said you don't have to make a copy before you edit the photos. However you do need to make backups (identical copies) of your original photos and catalog file on a different hard disk. This is to protect against the future situation where your hard disk will fail, resulting in the loss of your photos, and to protect against accidental erasure of your original photos. It is not to protect against Lightroom changing the pixels of your original photos, which as I said, Lightroom does not do.

  • Is it possible to replace masters with versions without going through the process of exporting and importing?

    Is it possible to overwrite the master files with the versions without having to go through the entire process of exporting and importing back the images?
    Thnx in advance

    A small refinement if you shoot RAW. Remember, no RAW file can ever be edited or rewritten. Thus, in the old days, the flow was:
    RAW>TIFF/PSD and you ended up with two large files. (This is why some folks used to delete the RAW Masters.)
    With Aperture the flow is something like:
    RAW+Version(s) Only the Version is only 30 KB. (There is, of course, additional overhead of Thumbs and Previews, but, depending on your settings, this is only a fraction of the size of a TIFF or PSD.)
    You question goes right to the heart of the concept of a non-destructive workflow. With Aperture you always preserve your original Master file; the only things that are ever at risk are your edits (called Adjustments). Ironically, this is even more valuable if you shoot JPEG or TIFF as those files could be rewritten.)
    Aperture goes to great lengths to give you the best of both worlds; you always have the Master to revert to and your "edits" take up very little disk space. And you don't have to waste time trying to sync folders of RAW, TIFF, and JPEG. Similarly, you never have to worry about resizing images, changing color spaces, or any number of other things that get locked into an image file when you use a destructive workflow.
    Remember, Aperture will happily Export files in any format you may need. Export 'em, use 'em, delete 'em - your Masters are still safe in Aperture.

    If the CM still fails to run, please check the CM log file for details about the error.
