EQ Templates & Supplier Initiated eQs: Optional versus Required

We are on v6.1.1.1 and have setup our Material Spec eQ with Spec Name and Ingredient Statement as required. There is no selection for shelf life to be required or optional so that it is not rendered on the eQ. The white paper on Supplier Initiated eQs states that all data, by default confiugration, is set to optional when the supplier initiates the eQ. Supplier are currently getting unhandled exception error messages when the supplier submits a change on Supplier Portal. The eQ is never rendered or emails send with the unique link. We are wondering if the eQ template needs to have all fields selected as optional in order to render in supplier portal properly. The documention on Admin, eQ User Guide, and Supplier Portal are all silent on this question. Only the white paper, written before v6.1, mentions anything about optional versus required. The specific questions are:
1. Does the eQ template require that all fields be selected as optional in order to work properly for Supplier Iniated eQs?
2. Does the supplier create tag that allows row selection in custom sections (we have added these to all of our custom sections and they are in our template) have any impact to the Supplier experience with Supplier Initiated eQs?
Thank you for your time.
Best, BeckieC

This sounds like a bug, suppliers should be able to initiate eQs regardless of what options are selected on the template.   Go ahead and submit an SR so support can investigate.
To answer your other questions:
1. Does the eQ template require that all fields be selected as optional in order to work properly for Supplier Iniated eQs?
No, if the data is on the spec it will be included in the questionnaire. Whether spec data is marked as optional or required for the supplier is decided by this config: <add key="EQ.SupplierInitiatedQuestionaire.EQItem.RequireSpecContents.Enabled" value="false"/>   Data that isn't controlled by the spec, like whether a supplier can create a breakdown, is controlled by the eQ template.
You can also add additional attributes to the template and they should be included in the questionnaire. For example, lets say the spec has custom A, B, and C and the eQ template has custom section D.   A, B, C and D should appear on the questionnaire they initiate. Another use case could be an allergen.   Lets say your specs has 12 allergens declared but allergen A is now required to be declared. You would add allergen A to your template and it should be included with the specification data for the supplier to respond to. Page 6 of the white paper discusses each field and where the data comes from.
2. Does the supplier create tag that allows row selection in custom sections (we have added these to all of our custom sections and they are in our template) have any impact to the Supplier experience with Supplier Initiated eQs?
It shouldn't have a negative impact.   If the section that they have create ability for is on the spec or template it should be included in the initiated questionnaire and the supplier be able to add custom section structure.

Propose of Supply Not Found for External Requirement

Hello Experts,
I have a problem where I can't found any source of supply after proposing via button "Propose Sources of Supply" but will work for requirements come from Shopping Cart.
Somehow I found below facts after comparing requirement document created from external and shopping cart with BBP_PD :
- From req created by SC, ORDERED_PROD in table CRMD_ORDERADM_I have 40 digits format
- From req created by ext requirement, ORDERED_PROD in table CRMD_ORDERADM_I have 18 digits format
Then I created PR with external material number to avoid leading zeros difference, but the problem persist. So, ORDERED_PROD number format is not the cause.
Have anyone got the same problem? What's the solution?
Sincerely,
Ted

Hi Ted,
In standard, system stores the product ID in internal tables with
leading zeros.
You have the option to suppress the leading zeros by configuring
SPRO setting
"Define Output Format and Storage Format of Product IDs".
This is an example of systems:
You can see in BBP_PD, if you click on item, there
is a table called CRMD_ORDERADM_I. You can see that PRODUCT_SRC_SYS
for this cart is displayed as SRPCLNT100. Therefore, as setting
for leading zeros is maintained in SPRO for system SRQCLNT100 and
not SRPCLNT100, leading zeros are being displayed to end user.
Usually, when systems are copied you should replace the logical system name using transaction BDLS.
Please take a look at the following notes: 446294 and 121163.
Regarding the use of BBPSC01, check wiki content

Error 1074395241: The template descriptor does not contain data required for rotation-invariant matching.

Hello all,
I am using the IMAQ Match Pattern 4 to detect the rotation angle of a template image. However, it shows the error: "Error 1074395241: The template descriptor does not contain data required for rotation-invariant matching." What is the problem exactly? How to solve this? The details are explained below.
My project is a little bit complicated. Part of the block diagram containing the IMAQ Match Pattern 4 is shown below:
The source image is a series of frames of images read from an AVI video (I used a for loop to process the images frame by frame). The template image is a selected region of the first frame. So it means, the user selected the object of ineterst in the first frame of the video, and in each of the following frames, we need to find the matched object of interest & determine its rotation angle. When I run the block diagram shown above, it does not have any error. However, it shows the rotation angle as zero no matter what it "really" is. Therefore, I changed the block diagram by adding the parameters, shown below:
But in this case, when I run it, it shows the error that I have indicated in the subject line.
If you need more details about my project to identify the problem, please let me know.
Thanks in advance.

-Please go through pattern matching example which comes along with labview fiirst
Go to labview Help>>Find Examples and you can search for example.
-You have create template with angle range and what type of pattern matching you want use.
-For this you have to use IMAQ Learn Pattern before using IMAQ Match Pattern 4

Are there any apps which will allow local calling using data only that do not require any special numbers called out initially and does not require the receiver to have a similar app or account?

Are there any apps which will allow local calling using data only (not minutes, no extra charge) that do not require any special numbers called out initially and does not require the receiver to have a similar app or account? Just for random local calling.

Yup.
Here is a way you could solve this by adding an extra column and a small lookup table:
The lookup table is here for the copying:
0
1
k
kilo
2
M
mega
3
G
giga
4
T
tera
5
P
peta
6
E
exa
7
Z
zetta
8
Y
yotta
In table 8 (the one on the left in the image) column A is where the values are.
B1=A1÷(1024^VLOOKUP(INT(LOG(A1, 1024)), Binary Prefixes::A:D, 1))&" "&VLOOKUP(INT(LOG(A1, 1024)), Binary Prefixes::A:D, 2)&"B"
this is shorthand for... select cell B1, then type (or copy and paste from here) the formula:
=A1÷(1024^VLOOKUP(INT(LOG(A1, 1024)), Binary Prefixes::A:D, 1))&" "&VLOOKUP(INT(LOG(A1, 1024)), Binary Prefixes::A:D, 2)&"B"
select cell B1, copy,
now select all the cells in column B, paste

Optional & not required Fields in webservice

Hi All,
I have published my webservice as orchestration,
Everything is good till now,
But user wants a couple of fields as optional & not required (the process should not break if the fields are not present in request xml),
so,i made that element name to nillable to true & minoccurs to 0, as shown
But in wsdl it creates minoccurs=1, not sure why it sets minoccurs=1, when the published schema has minoccurs=0 !!
the following is the wsdl screenshot.
Please let me know what can i do for making the fields optional & not required.
thanks,
Sarva.

First we will have to understand the issue.
Yes, this is an issue with BizTalk Web publishing wizard. But if you actual see it in practical terms, it’s not much of an issue. May be in some cases this could really cause
an issue when client just use WSDL.
The MSND URL which Rachit has shared may out of date. Because as mentioned in the MSDN blog ““If
you publish a schema that contains minOccurs or maxOccurs attributes
with specific values, these values may be different in schema exposed by the published Web service” – No. It’s not the exposed schema which will have different values
for minOccurs or maxOccurs attributes,
its only for the WSDL file which will have different values. If you
actually see the schema from the virtual directory, this will correct minOccurs or maxOccurs attributes. This is why when anyone who access/consume the web service by WSDL, will
also need to use schema while consuming. WSDL shall be used to access the operation name and data type (Schema) references whereas the actual definition for the data elements are accessed from schema.

This is pretty surprising and wierd that even Reader 10.1.1 is crashing on your system. It works pefectly for me.
Would it be possible for you to get the crash dump, and upload it, so that I can have a look at the same.
Download PROCDUMP from <http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/sysinternals/dd996900.aspx> and extract it to a folder, say, c:\temp\procdump.exe
Open cmd prompt and type "cd c:\temp".
Launch the browser and open the PDF.
Open task manager, sort processed by name. Two AcroRd32.exe instances should have been launched. Note the PID (a small integer like 5588) corresponding to the AcroRd32.exe with the higher memory usage; this is the process that must be crashing. Note this PID.
On the cmd window, type "procdump -e -ma 5588 c:\temp\01.dmp" (replace 5588 with the actual PID of the process noted in Step 4). Procdump will now wait for the aoolication to crash. If it throws a EULA, accept it.
Perform your steps to cause the crash.
Procdump will have created a dump file at "c:\temp\01.dmp". Zip it up (since it will be 100s of MBs otherwise) and share with me.
Thanks in advance for all your help

Fail to create a VD Collection with error "The Virtual desktop template does not meet the provisioning requirements."

I get the following error when I try to create a Virtual desktop
collection;
"The Virtual desktop template does not meet the provisioning requirements."
although I'm specifing a sysprep'd VM installed WS2012 for a virtual desktop template.
Is there any way to resolve?
Or, is there any couses of this message?
thanks.

I realize this is an old thread. I'll post and see if I get a response. If not, I'll create a new thread. My question is how does Microsoft suggest SPLA partners create VDI pools since they cannot license Windows 7 or 8 via SPLA? Why
would you restrict the provisioning to only the desktop operating systems that you won't allow partners to license for deployment?
Are there any plans to change this to include 2008 R2 or WS2012 as the base OS for a VD template?

What happened to the Initial View options under Document Properties??

What happened to the Initial View options under Document Properties? I just updated my Reader and it's no longer accessible! SOS.

Hi kga406,
Please tell me if you are able to access 'initial view' tab in document properties using Acrobat.
You can change initial view settings only in Acrobat and can view PDFs in Reader with the same initial view as set.

Web template - Drop Down Box options - Issue

<b>Requirement:</b> We need drop downboxes for Fiscal Period and Version in our web template. When the query is run, users will choose one fiscal period and one budget version (there are multiple budget versions - 1. Original Budget, 2. Revised Budget 3. Consensus)
After the query is run, users should be able to see data for any of the past 6 periods and any of the budget versions. So in the drop down list for fiscal period, he should see previous 6 periods and in the drop down for Budgets, they should see all the budget versions.
If the read mode is set to "Posted values", then only the values user chooses for the variables at run time will be shown. If the read mode is set to "Dimension table" it'll show all the available periods from the transactional data, which is unacceptable. We also tried the option "Can be changed during Query Navigation" but it will not work the version drop down box as it'll show all the available versions (actual, plan, forecast along with the different budgets)...
So, is there any other way of solving this issue? By any Javascript?
<i>This is what I did for the Fiscal Period drop down, but then the solution is not complete.</i>
For the Fiscal Period variable, I created a new variable and checked the option "Can be changed during Navigation". Then the drop down will be populated with all the possible values. This is how the Fiscal year/ Period combo will work. We'll have two variables. Fiscal year is fixed and we won't have a drop down box for it. So user can not change the year after the query is run. But he can see data for any of the 12 periods of the year he selected.
But there is a catch. This is not exactly what we are looking for. For example, if the user initially selects Year 2005 and period 10, then he can see all the previous 9 period of year 2005 (also periods 11 and 12). No problem there. But If the user initially selects year 2005 and Period 1, then he expects to see previous periods. But since year is fixed, when he selects period 12 from the drop down list, it'll show him period 12 of 2005 instead of 2004.
To avoid that problem, we can also put a drop down box for year, but that will become too complicated, as the all the possible years will show up in the drop down. Still trying to figure out a solution around it. Also same problem arises for Version. We only want to see two versions of the Budget. But it'll show them all the possible versions including forecast, actual etc.
Any insight is highly appreciated.

Hi.
I has the same problem working on BID.
Either you need to save the template with a new name or do it under BIP.
It worked after for me.
That's why I only do my templates under BIP now.
I guess a new support package corrects this error.

Setting default "Initial View" options for new PDFs

I usually want most of the PDFs I create to open with the pages panel displayed and “fit to window”. Currently I open every PDF and change that in the document properties under “Initial View”, save and close.
There must be a better way.
Is it possible to set this as the default for all newly created PDFs as part of the job options definition?
I've searched in the different settings panes, but to no avail.
Any hints appreciated.

The Initial View (IV) settings are not part of the options when creating a new PDF, either in Acrobat or Distiller.
There are several options to apply IV depending on the version of Acrobat you're using. You can create an Action in Acrobat X which applies IV to any open file as per your requirements, and optionally saves it as well. In Acrobat 9 or earlier you can do a similar thing with a batch process sequence.
If you need to attach IV as part of the creation process then you can use an "epilogue.ps" script to add commands which Distiller will append to the PDF, and link that PS file to one of Distiller's presets.
Lori Kassuba has a blog post about this method.

Does FND:Developer Mode Profile Option changes requires apache bounce?

Hi All,
Am getting the following warning message in one of my page. Observed that, the profile option value FND: Developer Mode in the instance is Yes. I have changed it to NO since the recommended settings of this profile option is NO as Oracle stated in the Developer Guide. But, still am getting the warning message. Does this change require apache bounce or am I missing anything to get rid of error?

Saurabh,
I got a clue on this issue. Not sure, will it be helpful.
User clicks on the base page link, which takes him to details page. When i redirect the user from base page to details page, am setting the retainAM value as Y as one of the parameter of the link url.
Am getting the warning message when the value of retainAM is Y. If it is N, it is not throwing the warning message. Any idea, what could be the reason?.
I feel, it might execute the VO's in the AM. Is my guess make sense?

CUP - Initiator for roles not requiring approval (i.e. auto provisioned)

We recently upgraded to GRC 5.3, SP10 and started noticing that using CUP, for roles that should be automatically provisioned (i.e. no approval required), it is taking between 3 minutes 45 seconds to 5 minutes for the request to be successfully submitted and automatically approved with provisioning. I was wondering if anyone is experiencing simlar system performance
Our set-up for auto provisioned role requests is as follows:
1. Created initiator INI_NO_APPROVE using role for attribute
2. Created stage STG_NO_STAGE with Approver Determinator = No Stage
3. Created path definition PATH_NO_APPROVE with number of stages =2 and initiator = INI_NO_APPROVE
Thanks!

F.Y.I.
As per SAP's recommendation - we applied note:1423983 in all target provisioningn systems and this resolved the issue.

Options gestures requires 2 fingers, other screens okay

Hi,
when I open the option form the gestures is very awkward, requiring two fingers to do any button select, list scrolling, etc. This includes wifi setup form. Other screens work as expected with one finger gestures for scrolling and selecting apps etc. other apps seem to work fine. Is this by design? I am running OS Version 1.0.1.1710. About screen also requires two fingers to scroll down to number of documents etc. in landscape.
Have I missed an option somewhere?

I overlooked th fact that there was a separate "project stock" segment that was being planned, for which the requirement was past due. Hence the days' supply was negative.
The coverage for use of normal unrestricted stock would be 999 as per the data.
