Determining PST time from SYSTIMESTAMP
Thanks to everyone who answered by previous question about SYSTIMESTAMP.
Here's a PL/SQL function I wrote to convert the current time to PST and return it as a DATE value. The idea is that it should work regardless of what the database's timezone is set to.
Any critiques are welcome - efficiency, style, whatever. In particular, is there a way to avoid the conversion to a VARCHAR2? Is there a system supplied function I am overlooking?
Thanks again!
CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION PST_SYSDATE RETURN DATE IS
th NUMBER;
tm NUMBER;
now TIMESTAMP(6) WITH TIME ZONE;
d VARCHAR2(200);
BEGIN
now := SYSTIMESTAMP;
SELECT
TO_CHAR(now, 'YYYY-MM-DD HH24:MI:SS'),
EXTRACT(timezone_hour FROM now) TH,
EXTRACT(timezone_minute FROM now) TM
INTO d, th, tm
FROM DUAL;
RETURN TO_DATE(d, 'YYYY-MM-DD HH24:MI:SS') - ((th+tm/60+8)/24);
END PST_SYSDATE;
/
You do not need a function for that. Use AT TIME ZONE TZ_OFFSET:
SQL> ALTER SESSION SET NLS_DATE_FORMAT = 'MM/DD/YYYY HH24:MI:SS'
2 /
Session altered.
SQL> SELECT SYSTIMESTAMP EST,
2 SYSTIMESTAMP AT TIME ZONE TZ_OFFSET('PST') PST,
3 CAST(SYSTIMESTAMP AT TIME ZONE TZ_OFFSET('PST') AS DATE) PST_DATE
4 FROM DUAL
5 /
EST PST PST_DATE
08-APR-09 03.25.39.034000 PM -04:00 08-APR-09 12.25.39.034000 PM -07:00 04/08/2009 12:25:39
SQL> SY.

Determine propagation time from signals obtained with Gould Transition software
Hi
I'm trying to analyze signals from measurements of sound waves. I tried to do it with the Transition software, but this software is not sufficient because there are no averaging or filter options (furthermore you have to analyze graph after graph). Signals are saved in ASCII-code and what I'm looking for is a good and fast way to determine propagation time from the differences of the arriving of two waves. FFT would be great to.
Thanks a lot
MarcoAny personal experiences would be greatly appreciated.

Determine audio file play time from size
Hello!
I have a mp3 file and i want to determine it's play time from it's length. Is this thing possible? Could anyone point me in the right direction?
Thanks in advance!
Cheers!
RaduThanks you both for your replies!
I posted yesterday late in the evening and my brain didn't work quite well :)). After i've read your posts today, i realized that i will be using mplayer in slave mode to play the audio file, and a quick google search showed me that mplayer offers a way to retreive the play time of any audio/video file (in seconds). Tested it today and it works! So i guess my question has been answered.
Thanks again
Cheers!

I've never used Print Booklet or your printer, but some things are determined by the printer and printer software, rather than the program from which you are printing. You might want to see if Xerox's website has any info also.

Function Module To Change TIME from GMT to CST
Hello All,
Can anyone tell me if there is any Function Module to convert the TIME from GMT to CST?
RegardsHi Sunil,
use the following code.
DATA :
timestamp like TZONREF-TSTAMPS,
time like sy-uzeit,
date like sy-datum.
The following function module is used to convert the
time and date into GMT timestamp
CALL FUNCTION 'IB_CONVERT_INTO_TIMESTAMP'
EXPORTING
i_datlo = sy-datum
i_timlo = sy-uzeit
I_TZONE = 'INDIA'
IMPORTING
E_TIMESTAMP = timestamp.
The following function module is used to convert the
above obtained timestamp to PST timezone date and time.
CALL FUNCTION 'IB_CONVERT_FROM_TIMESTAMP'
EXPORTING
i_timestamp = timestamp
I_TZONE = 'CST'
IMPORTING
E_DATLO = date
E_TIMLO = time.
write :/ 'Date and Time at PST zone is ',date, time.
Reward if helpful.
Thanks,

Planned Delivery Time from Material Master instead of PIRs
Hi SAP Gurus,
Do you know if there is a way to have MRP look at the Planned Delivery Time from the Material Master (MRP 2 tab) instead of the PIR?
We would like to create global PIRs with a PDT of 1 and have the Material Master PDT set to a different number (example 5). So when MRP runs it will read 5 instead of 1.
Any additional information is appreciated.
Thank you
-nicHi Nicholas,
In Standard SAP will consider Planned delivery time maintained in Inforecord and than time maintained in Material master. Inforecord has higher priority than material master. When a requisition is manually created, the Planned Delivery date will always be taken from the material master.
For MRP you can make setting OMDT for your plant or MRP group to determine planned delivery time.
Deactive the flag 'Scheduling according to purchasing info record or agreement' in Customizing (Plant or MRP group). and test the same.

CCMS issue: "Determining warning messages from CCMS"
Hi!
We have a performance problem by accessing of solution in tcode DSWP.
We retrieve the warning: "Determining warning messages from CCMS"
In order to solve or analyse this problem I have the following questions:
1) How collects CEN the data from satelite systems?
1a) how? --> RFC, etc.
1b) mode? --> Push, Pull, etc.
2) How the data will be transfered from CEN to tcode DSWP?
Any helpful information will be appreciated.
regards
ThomHi Thom,
Have you already installed CCMS agents, the will speed up communication? That's definitely required in your situation with many systems connected to SolMan.
See [http://service.sap.com/monitoring|http://service.sap.com/monitoring]
You can also check CPU, Memory, as recommended by Afi, but I expect that this will not be the bottleneck.
Response times depend on the number of connect systems, number of activated monitoring objects (MTE nodes), number of server, instances.
If you are not satisfied with performance, I would recommend to open a customer message on component SV-SMG-OP or SV-SMG-MON-SYS.

Tcode DSWP, Determining warning messages from CCMS
We use SAP Solution Manager 4.0, SPS 13 for System Monitoring of almost 100 systems.
We configured SOLMAN as CEN system and activated the CCMSPING with push option.
For almost the 2/3 of the systems we configured SAPCCM4X agents.
Our current problem is a performance issue in tcode DSWP. When we try to enter into one of the solutions there (by pressing on it) we get the following warning:
Determining warning messages from CCMS
It tooks a while and then it is possible to access the desired solution.
My important question is of course:
How can this issue be solved?
Is there some techniques to analyse and change the problem
How can I check whether all the agents work in push mode and that we do not use standard CCMS methods that can cause the RFC load?
Thank you very much for any helpful information
Regards

Hello Gurus,
The Determine load. time is C Default from shipping point in define shipping point - config.
But I want to know from where the days are defauted as I could not see this in define shipping point itself.
Please tell me where the load time is mentioned in config to get defaulted.
thank you
muraliHi Murali krishna,
Pls find the path where we are going to define the load time below:
SPRO>Enterprise structure>Definition>Logistics Execution>Define,Copy,delete,check shipping point-->Define shipping point.
In the screen Determine times tab you can find the field Determine load time with options as (blank,A,B and C).
If you want to change then select the second option as Copy, delete, check shipping point.Select your shipping point and edit the one you want.

After returning from an extended trip in Spain, my iPad 1 with iOS 5 retains the Barcelona location when "Automatically Set Date/Time". Most of my Apple devices are affected, how do I get all of my devices back to PST time? Thanks!
Turn off Automatically Set Date/Time and set your time zone.

View more than one sheet at a time from the same file?
I'm trying to view two different sheets at the same time from one file. This was possible in excel by opening a "new" window. Does anyone know how to do this in numbers?

You know what: Happily, _*Numbers is definitively not a clone of Excel*_ !
It's not forced to duplicate every features of this program !
We may see every tables of a given sheet
but we can't see tables of two sheets simultaneously.
This feature is very important because it's linked to
the one which allow us to have different orientation for different sheets.
