Different types of Tech Docs??

Hi,
I am in the process of creating some Technical Docs. I have been given "Report" Functional Docs off of which I am to create the TD's. There is a reason I am stressing on "Report" FD's. I found a Tech Doc on the shared drive and when I opened it, it has tabs with information like the Data Flow diagram, the Datasource fields, the DSO fields, the Cube (dimensions etc) and the Multiprovider. When I showed this TD to a friend (quite experienced in BI), he said that the TD was not for a report. He said that a TD for a "report" should contain info like Chars and KF's (rows and columns), Free Chars, Selection criteria, the layout, whether Results rows will be suppressed, etc, etc. I think that makes sense but I would like to get more info from some of the experienced members here. My dilemma is, what do I do with the FD that has been presented to me. It contains the description of the report as to what its purpose is. It also contains the fields and other info that the business would like to see. What should be my approach? What questions can I prepare for the BU leads. Do I need "strong" functional knowledge in the area that the report is based on (say for eg. FI-AR)? I am new to this and a step-by-step approach/answer will be much appreciated.
FYI......I am familiar with the definitions of FD's and TD's
Thanks. Points will be awarded

Hi,
The functional document  of your report describes the specification about the functional requirement report in business sense what needs to be achieved. so Functional Specs are requirements of the business user which needs to be mapped to technical document/specifications, i.e technical requirement is how going to achieve . It contains all details about technical things. Technical Specs translate these requirements in a techincal fashion.
Pls chk this links :
Functional specs - tchnical specs
Contents of functional specs for BW project
functional and Technical Specs required
please do send some more specifc details abt your requirement, may be we will help you to acheive  some of your technical specs/document.
Hope this helps,
Regards

  • Convert different types of files and merged them into one pdf

    Hi, everyone. I'm girl from China.
    There is folder containing severl files of different types, like doc, msg, jpeg etc.   And I want to convert and merge them into one pdf following a certain order. I know that PDFmaker can do that nicely, but the problem is that I have like 3000+ fodlders that requires the same work.
    I want to do it with VBA and Acrobat. I have a Acrobat XI Standard Version and a perfect license, by the way
    And I have got the code(Thanks, Karl Heinz Kremer) of merging two pdfs into one, but how can I convert them into pdf first?
    Thank you very much.
    If I can finish this, I would like to publish my code on this forum.

    Wow, that's great news. But how should I add the Action?
    1. There is no action named "Covert files into Pdf" in the tools panel....
    And if I write Javascript code to do this action. How should I write it?
    app.openDoc({
    cPath: "/c/temp/myPic.jpg",
    bUseConv: true
    These code only works when I specify the path of the file.
    If you know how, pls tell me..........

  • Unable to open multiple files of different types simultaneously

    It seems  the MS has made some changes in Win7, and I am no longer able to open multiple files of different types (.doc, .pdf) in Explorer by highlighting the desired files and hitting Enter.  It still works if I select only one file type, but
    the ability to open multiple files of different types has been in place since Win95, and maybe since Win3.11 (my memory is a little foggy that far back).

    Hi,
    Yes, this feature was removed from Windows 7. Now you just can open multiple files which are the same type at once.

  • What�re the different types of reference?

    Hello there:
    I was asked a question during the interview:
    What�re the different types of reference?
    They meant sth like weak reference... anyone can give a more detailed explaination?
    Also someone can talk a little bit about the memory leak in Java? IWhen will it happen? One senario on my mind is that: an array filled with the references of a class, when the program is done with the array, it doesn't apply removeall on the array. Will it cause memory leak?
    Thanks a lot,

  • Different type of planned orders

    Hello Friends,
    I went to an interview, in which I've been asked a question to describe different type of Planned Orders ?????????
    Is there type's of planned orders in MTS or MTO environments ???
    Pls enlighten me on this.
    Thanks Sir,

    Rahul,
    For interview questions, you should first consult with SAP online help before posting a question on this forum.
    In SAP, there are not planned order types, there are planned order profiles.  SAP supplies some basic ones, and you can create additional profiles as well.  Reference to order profiles when creating planned orders

  • Push different type of messages to JMS Queue using JMS Adapter

    Platform: Oracle SOA 11g. JMS Adapter.
    I got to push different types of messages as string to same queue. JMS Adapter requires schema to push a message to a queue. Since messages are of different types, how can I push them into queue. I tried to use singleString schema. Result is that actual message gets wrapped into <singleString> root element which is not the required result.
    Any hints or links shall be appreciated.

    Thanks fo ryour reply and help. I appreciate that.
    Wrapping of original message in <singleString>  element is done by JMS Adapter as the very last activity/setting. I am not composing/transforming message into final shape with singleString through transformation.
    Once message is with JMS adapted on one end, it is in Queue on the other end. No control.
    Since consuming end is not in my control and requires the actual message in Text format, I need to have the message target queue in Text format.
    If I select the Opaque schema, following error message is thrown.
    <bpelFault><faultType>0</faultType><mismatchedAssignmentFailure xmlns="http://docs.oasis-open.org/wsbpel/2.0/process/executable"><part name="summary"><summary>Mismatch Assign. cannot set a nonmessage value to a message-based variable.

  • Different types of Contacts

    Hi
    We have a CRM that is mainly used by our sales team in managing their client relationships and consequently the Accounts\Contacts sections are filled with their data. In addition we have other, smaller teams - eg communications, exec office etc - that also
    have contact records that they'd like to manage. Does anyone have any advice on the best way to manage these records that all share common contact-like features and yet in various ways need to be kept secure and separate etc. I'm aware we could use different
    crm instances and/or different business units and/or custom entities but I'm also aware of the drawbacks with each of these eg outlook client can only integrate with one instance, custom entities lose out on core tracking functionality etc etc.
    What do people generally do in this situation when needing to house different types of contact record?
    Thanks

    Hi,
    We do something fairly similar ourselves and we manage it with business units and multiple security roles. These roles apply to the various business units to determine how they behave within these teams.
    So, for example, any accounts or contacts that are owned by a sales person can be read by anyone in sales but only written to by the owner. They also don't have visiblity of any other business unit's accounts. However, tech staff need to manage their own
    contacts but also create work records against sales's accounts can see everything.
    To be honest, I don't think there's going to be any other way to accomplish this. I would have said that the recommended approach to limiting access is done via security roles and these are closely linked to the business unit set up.
    Field level security is another area to consider but, from what you've said, I don't think it would be relevant here.

  • The workflow could not update the item, possibly because one or more columns for the item require a different type of information. Outcome: Unknown Error

    Received this error (The workflow could not update the item, possibly because one or more columns for the item require a different type of information.) recently on a workflow that was
    working fine and no changes were made to the workflow.
    I have tried a few suggestions, i.e. adding a pause before any ‘Update’ action (which didn’t help because the workflow past this action without incident); checked the data type being written
    to the fields (the correct data types are being written); and we even checked the list schema to ensure the list names and the internal names are aligned (they
    are), but we still cannot figure out why the workflow is still throwing this error.
    We located the area within the workflow step where it is failing and we inserted a logging action to determine if the workflow would execute the logging action but it did not, but wrote the same error message.
    The workflow is a Reusable Approval workflow designed in SharePoint Designer 2010 and attached to a content type. 
    The form associated with the list was modified in InfoPath 2010. 
    Approvers would provide their approval in the InfoPath form which is then read by the workflow.
    Side note - items created after the workflow throws this Unknown Error some seem to be working fine. 
    We have deleted the item in question and re-added it with no effect. 
    Based on what we were able to determine there don’t seem to be any consistency with how this issue is behaving.
    Any suggestions on how to further investigate this issue in order to find the root cause would be greatly appreciated?
    Cheers

    Hi,
    I understand that the reusable workflow doesn’t work properly now. Have you tried to remove the Update list item action to see whether the workflow can run without issue?
    If the workflow runs perfectly when the Update list item action is removed, then you need to check whether there are errors in the update action. Check whether the values have been changed.

  • Mini-DVI to DVI Adapter issues (2 different types, no info from Apple)

    as you can see below, I have an iBook G4 1.2GHz
    three weeks ago I got a Mini-DVI to Video Adapter
    there were two different types in the Apple Store because there are two generations of Mini-DVI outputs, therefore some close inspection and it was easy to get the right part.
    Now, three weeks later, all that stuff is off the shelf so it looks like they only have up the more recent size plug. Thus, I cannot find the slightly smaller Mini-DVI to DVI Adapter. (typical Apple, probably just wants me to spend more money on a new machine)
    Anyone have a line on where to buy the older type of adapter?
    be very careful out there. They are pimping the heck out of the newer generations. I'm looking for the older one.
    (if not, I'll probably just stop buying Apple stuff. No need for the headache any more since they are no longer really different products. Just fashion)

    I have both an iBook G4 and a MacBook, which use each of the adaptors you have described. I found the information on the Apple site by identifying the Model iBook I had, Dual USB, and looking at he detailed views of each model to identify the type of 'video output port'. I obtained a '2 input' VGA switch from Tiger Direct to be able to switch my monitor from iBook to MacBook.
    Hope this helps!

  • How can I get the program to recognize two different types of thermocouples?

    I am using a PCI-4351 card with a TBX-68T terminal block. I was having trouble writing and finding a program that would give me more than one reading/sec. I found a program on the NI website called "435x_logger_triggering", and so far it is the only program that I have found that will actually collect data at 60 Hz. Unfortunately, this program only lets you specify one mode for your thermocouples. This is a problem because we are using two thermocouples, one is type K and the other is a type R, so we get bad readings from one of the thermocouples depending on which mode it is set on. I would like to know how I can program in a seperate mode for each channel in this program. Un
    fortunately, some of the sub VI's in this program are password protected, so I don't know if this is possible. Everything is entered correctly in the Measurement and Automation explorer, so that isn't the problem. I will attach a copy of the program that I am using. I have modified it slightly from the one I got off the NI website, so that the thermocouple readings have a time stamp and are saved to disk. Any assistance you could give me would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks,
    Jordan

    Jordan,
    You should be able to sample two different thermocouples in the example that ships with the 435x driver called "Getting Started with multiple tranducers Continous". Simply put each type of thermocouple in a different index . Each index of the Transducer Group Array can have a different type and specify the channels that correspond to that type.
    One way that you can speed this VI up is to place a wait inside of the while loop. This will reduce the number of times the software polls the card if it has available data(increasing the overhead). I would suggest about 500 ms. The data that you receive will all have the same delta t because the sampling clock is hardware driven not software, so it does matter when the data is polled.
    You will not be
    able to get 60 samples per second when you are measuring multiple channels anyway. The sample rate for multiple channels is about 9/(# channels). This is explained in the 435x Users Manual.
    I looked at your code and noticed that you tried to change some of the enumeration controls. Unfortunately you will not be able to change these because they are password protected on the low level subVIs, which is where they are defined.
    The way you select if you want the notch filter is in the 435x Config you specify fast or slow. If it is slow then it will select 10Hz as the nitch filter. If you select fast the it will select either 50 or 60Hz You would then use the function "435x Set power line frequency"
    Good luck,
    Mike
