Difference between Due Date for All Tasks and Duration per task in an approval workflow

Hello,
I'm starting to read up and learn about approval workflows in Designer 2010. I am confused by the fields "Due Date for all Tasks" and the "Duration per task". I understand that the Due date for all Tasks is the date that all
of the tasks in the workflow must be completed by. And I understand that the duration means each task has x number of days to complete.
But I dont know whey we need them both. If I have the task duration set to two days and there are 3 tasks involved, then wouldn't the due date be 6 days from the start? Why would I have a due date for all tasks that is completely different than
the sum of the duration of days for each task?
Please help shed some light!

Hi Michelle,
Due date for all tasks, this setting specifies the date by which all tasks are due. It’s used for serial and parallel
task.
Duration per tasks, this setting specifies the date by which an individual
task is due, it’s used for serial workflow participants.
Note, when you create an approval workflow, select task process participants(approvers oob approval workflow), we can also
select once at a time(serial) or all at once(parallel).
For more information, see

Is there a way to allow setting of "Due Date for All Tasks" to current date in OOB Workflow

Is there a way to allow setting of "Due Date for All Tasks" to current date in OOB Workflow
I need to set it today because there are tasks that is needed to be completed on the same day.
Is there a way without modifying the page/form. like a configuration or something?

Hi ,
As Ajeet said, for implement your requirement, you can change the data validation on the Due data field.
You can do as the following :
Open the site with SharePoint Designer 2010
Click on Workflows on the left launch, then find ‘Approval-SharePoint 2010’, click on it
On the Forms section, click ‘ReviewApproval_***.xsn’
Then you can find Due Data for All Tasks, and change the validation
In addition, if you create an approval workflow with SharePoint Designer, you can use a specific date, it contains hour and minute.
I hope this helps.
Thanks,

Due Date for Reminders app and iCal

Where is the option to add a due date for a reminder? There is an option to Remind Me but no Due Date.
The only way that a Due Date shows up in the Reminder app on the iPhone is if the Reminder is created within iCal on the Mac and syncs back to iPhone.

It doesn't exist. Please, please, please, report the issue to Apple that both alarms and due dates at the same time are not possible as a bug here:http://www.apple.com/feedback/iphone.html. The more people who submit it, the more likely Apple will listen.

Is there any difference between alv display using Resuable FM and ALV display using classes except the later one uses OO concept.??
One mere thing i want to clarify is that is there any difference exist between REUSE_ALV_GRID_DISPLAY and REUSE_ALV_LIST_DISPLAY? If so, then let me know.
It could be easier to understand me if yuo give scenario where these FM comes into picture
Regards,
Parag

Hi,
(1) REUSE_ALV_LIST_DISPLAY

Find the difference between two dates for the specific month and year

Hi,
I have two dates, start date is 30/12/2012 and end date is 04/01/2013. Using datediff I found the difference of days between two dates. But I find the no of days in January 2013. ie output is 4 instead of 6. I input month and year to find the no of days
for that date. In this case I input Jan 2013. How can I sql this ?

I don't understand how most of the answers provided here not analytically solving the problem with many cases possible.
First let me understand you:
You have 2 dates range and you want to calculate day range for specific month and year between the original date range.
declare @for_month int = 1 --January
declare @for_year int = 2013
declare @StartDate date = '2012-12-20'
declare @EndDate date = '2013-01-04'
SELECT
CASE
WHEN (DATEPART(MONTH, @StartDate) = @for_month and DATEPART(MONTH, @EndDate) = @for_month) and ((DATEPART(YEAR, @StartDate) = @for_year or DATEPART(YEAR, @EndDate) = @for_year)) THEN
DATEDIFF(DAY, @StartDate,@EndDate)
WHEN (@StartDate < cast(CONVERT(varchar(4), @for_year) + '-' + CONVERT(varchar(2), @for_month) + '-01' as date)) and (@EndDate between (cast(CONVERT(varchar(4), @for_year) + '-' + CONVERT(varchar(2), @for_month) + '-01' as date)) and (cast(DATEADD(d, -1, DATEADD(m, DATEDIFF(m, 0, cast( CONVERT(varchar(4), @for_year) + '-' + CONVERT(varchar(2), @for_month) + '-01' as date)) + 1, 0)) as date))) THEN
DATEDIFF(DAY, DATEADD(MONTH, DATEDIFF(MONTH, -1, @EndDate)-1, 0),@EndDate)
WHEN (@EndDate > cast(DATEADD(d, -1, DATEADD(m, DATEDIFF(m, 0, cast( CONVERT(varchar(4), @for_year) + '-' + CONVERT(varchar(2), @for_month) + '-01' as date)) + 1, 0)) as date)) and (@StartDate between (cast(CONVERT(varchar(4), @for_year) + '-' + CONVERT(varchar(2), @for_month) + '-01' as date)) and (cast(DATEADD(d, -1, DATEADD(m, DATEDIFF(m, 0, cast( CONVERT(varchar(4), @for_year) + '-' + CONVERT(varchar(2), @for_month) + '-01' as date)) + 1, 0)) as date))) THEN
DATEDIFF(DAY, @StartDate,DATEADD(d, -1, DATEADD(m, DATEDIFF(m, 0, @StartDate) + 1, 0))) + 1
WHEN ((DATEDIFF(DAY, @StartDate, cast(DATEADD(d, -1, DATEADD(m, DATEDIFF(m, 0, cast( CONVERT(varchar(4), @for_year) + '-' + CONVERT(varchar(2), @for_month) + '-01' as date)) + 1, 0)) as date)) >= 0) and (DATEDIFF(DAY, cast(CONVERT(varchar(4), @for_year) + '-' + CONVERT(varchar(2), @for_month) + '-01' as date), @EndDate) >= 0)) THEN
DATEDIFF(DAY, cast( CONVERT(varchar(4), @for_year) + '-' + CONVERT(varchar(2), @for_month) + '-01' as datetime), DATEADD(d, -1, DATEADD(m, DATEDIFF(m, 0, cast( CONVERT(varchar(4), @for_year) + '-' + CONVERT(varchar(2), @for_month) + '-01' as datetime)) + 1, 0))) + 1
ELSE
0
END as [DD]
I don't know how you calculate day range between 01/01/2013 and 04/01/2013
is 4, it is actually is 3 but if that is the case, you can add 1 from the condition.

Any difference between the RAM for 1.83GHz and 2.0 GHz Macbook Pro?

Hi all,
I want to upgrade my 2.0GHz Core Duo MacBook Pro to 2GB of RAM. So far Crucial.com is my choice however I've noticed the difference in price (due to sale) for the 1.83GHz MBP and the 2.0GHz MBP:
http://www.crucial.com/store/mpartspecs.asp?mtbpoid=8698C1B9A5CA7304
http://www.crucial.com/store/mpartspecs.asp?mtbpoid=B8539EC6A5CA7304
Could you guys confirm there is actuall no difference between the two memory models, and it's just a marketing ploy on Crucial's part?
Thanks,
Eric

The prices indicated on both links are the same. However, the answer to your question is that all MacBooks, MacBook Pros, Intel Minis, and Intel iMacs all use the same type and spec RAM. You will find the appropriate information in the computer's User Guide. It's also described in the Apple guide on how to install the RAM.

Difference between BW statistcs for a cube and for overall system

Hai all,
We have a BW system with a process chain for Bw statistics for the whole system. I made a process chain with DB statistics for one my cube. I am sorry. I have little knowledge of the statistics.
My question is would be useful to have statistics for the whole system or perhaps a BW statistics cube
or
Constructing DB statistics every time when cube is loaded?
Which one is advantageous and more recommended? I would appreciate if somebody could refer me to some kind of documentation on this topic.
Thank you very much.

I'm a little fuzzy on what statistics you are discussing.
There are Database statistics that are collected on the tables in your BW and there are 'BW Statistics" cubes that contain operational data about what goes on in your BW, how many queries have run, load times, compress times, etc.
It sounds to me like what you are describing is there is one Process Chain that is loading data to the BW Statistics cubes, and you created another chain that is collecting Database statistics.
This is just a guess on my part. What is loaded to the BW Statistics cube is completly different data used for different purposes than database statistics.
BW Statistics are loaded to InfoCubes that are named 0BWTC_C* . What Process Types are being used in these two Process Chains - that would clear this up.

What are differences between a N95 for European ma...

Hello. I would like to ask you, what are the differences between a N95 for European market and one for Asian? I bought one for Asian and I have an awkward keypad and a dictionary. I`m wondering are there any other differences, like built quality? Should I change mine for an European one? Is it possible to change a keypad for a normal one? Anything other that hasn`t been mentioned? Thank you all, in advance.

the main difference is between asian version and euro version are:

when press and hold the # key, the phone will not switch to silent mode. instead it switches to "line 2".
camera sound cannot be turned off due to policies in asia
as far as i am concern
Hmmm not sure you can alter the dictionaries that come pre installed, the dictionary is there for when you use predictive sms, so it can match the words and u have the option to add words it does not recognise
holding # key on my generic N95 does not does not either of what u described, i think u should research your info, b4 u commit to a post, maybe the odd network that install there own firmware has the option to use the # key to change between line one and 2 and otheres programe it to scroll between silent and general, my handset being generic it does neither of these, so im guessing Nokia did not design this, why would u need the # key to change profiles when u can do this by pressing the power button once

Calculate the difference between two dates

I would like to calculate the difference between two dates in PL/SQL and return the result as a number of days expressed as an integer value.

Denes,
A fair point, I should really have posted this on the SQL forum (I'm new to the forum as well as PL/SQL) but thanks for responding anyway. It does raise a question as to how to implement this in ApEx though.
I have created the function and am calling it as shown below from the source window of a form. The source type is 'PL/SQL expression or function' and the expression in the source window of the form is:
calc_date_difference (:p26_c_payment, :p26_c_rec)
The two parameters being passed are of type date but I'm not sure how to handle the ruturned number and populate the form in ApEx with this value.
Is it possible to do it this way or am I taking completely the wrong approach?
Regards
Sandy
This is not ApEx related but SQL related:
CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION calc_date_difference (
p_date_1   VARCHAR2,
p_date_2   VARCHAR2
RETURN NUMBER
v_difference   NUMBER;
v_sql_err      VARCHAR2 (4000);
BEGIN
v_difference := TRUNC (TO_DATE (p_date_1)) - TRUNC
(TO_DATE (p_date_2));
RETURN v_difference;
CEPTION
WHEN OTHERS
THEN
v_sql_err := SQLERRM || CHR (10) || CHR (10) ||
SQLCODE;
ND calc_date_difference;and
SQL> SELECT calc_date_difference ('23.01.2007',
'20.01.2007') diff

Difference between " COMPRESS FOR ALL OPERATIONS" and "COMPRESS FOR OLTP"?

I was looking through Oracle's OLTP Table Compression (11g onwards) documentation as well as online resources to find the syntax and came across two different versions:
COMPRESS FOR ALL OPERATIONS
and
COMPRESS FOR OLTP
The documentation I looked through didn't mention any alternative syntax, so i was wondering if anyone here might know the difference.
Thank you!

Table Compression Enhancements in Oracle Database 11G Rel1 as as follows:
The compression clause can be specified at the tablespace, table or partition level with the following options:
•NOCOMPRESS - The table or partition is not compressed. This is the default action when no compression clause is specified.
•COMPRESS - This option is considered suitable for data warehouse systems. Compression is enabled on the table or partition during direct-path inserts only.
•COMPRESS FOR DIRECT_LOAD OPERATIONS - This option has the same affect as the simple COMPRESS keyword.
•COMPRESS FOR ALL OPERATIONS - This option is considered suitable for OLTP systems. As the name implies, this option enables compression for all operations, including regular DML statements. This option requires the COMPATIBLE initialization parameter to be set to 11.1.0 or higher.

Why files in Lightroom mobile and files in the creative cloud not the same? idea- one place(stored date) for all application ??????

Why files in Lightroom mobile and files in the creative cloud not the same? idea- one place(stored date) for all application ??????

Lightroom Mobile is not a cloud storage service. You shouldn't treat it as a way of backing up your files. You are merely storing Smart Previews of your files in the cloud space, high-quality JPEGs of your files regardless of their original format on your desktop. The point is that they are there so you can continue editing them in a Lightroom-like environment even while away from your desktop/laptop computer. The files in Lightroom Mobile can only be used in Lightroom Mobile.
This is very different from what is offered by the Creative Cloud storage, which can be used to synchronize your files between any device (that can support the individual files).
The vast difference in how each service works and its intended use is why they are separate.

Is there is any difference between iPhone4 made for Ukraine and for India?

I would like to know about the hardware / software difference between iPhone4 made for Ukraine and for India.
I purchased my iPhone4 in Ukraine and now I'm in India, and here due to restart problem I visit to a local delear/shopkeeper and he replaced some parts of my device with damaged one (crack screen, etc etc) and told me that it is a scrap and need another iPhone4 to replace some parts of it. Now this cell is totally brick, I can't check the EMEI of that device {because now its not booting} and he didn't accept that he replace some/all parts of my device.
So, I want to know that is there is any way to locate these parts?

Difference between the XML for the "Initial System Data" in the module ERM

Hello,
I wan to know what's the difference between the XML for the "Initial System Data" in the module ERM of SAP GRC AC 5.3.
RE_init_clean_and_insert_data.xml
RE_init_append_data.xml
RE_init_methodology_data.xml
And what "Initial System Data" do I have to put?? the rule set?
I'm new in SAP GRC.
Thank you very much.
Pablo Mortera.

Pablo,
I am sorry but I am not able to get the question so I will explain as per my understanding. All of these three xml files contain necessary out of the box data which is required for ERM to function. Without this data, your ERM would not work so this is the first thing you want to do in ERM after successful installation.
After that, you will have to create connector and landscape and then synchronize transaction code, auth objects, fields, values etc by running through each background job one by one.

Differences between Oracle 8i for a UNIX Platform and Oracle 8i for a Linux Platform

Hello,
J would like to know if there are some differences between Oracle 8i for a UNIX Platform and Oracle 8i for a Linux Platform.
I know that there are some differences on Oracle 8i Parallel Server and i know that some products are not include like precompiler (Mod*Ada, Pro*FORTRAN) on a Linux Platform.
Thank you.

We have installed Oracle 8i on Solaris 8 and it had a great performance, of course that the hardware and licence invested here was costed my the office where i work. Personaly i'd installed linux reh hat 8 and oracle 8i, imagine that, it could be implemented by any individual that has the time to do so.
By buyinng from a company that has a good background you could be sure that you will have support.
Bottom line, if you have the $ to buy great hardware go for a unix platform. But if you don't a Red Hat Linux Server Licence with a 1 year sopport and Oracle data base is about 3500Dls.
