FI-COPA Links

Hi,
I have returned to look into this again and was wondering if any one could help find the links between FI and COPA again. Can some one tell me if these links are possible to find out and how. Any help on CO-PA would be great. For example a COPA field or SD condition type must be linked to a GL Account? so where would the account assigned me displayed.
Regards,
V Rajeshwari

Hi,
I explain whatever I understood from your question.
How to identify the assignment made to SD condition type.
Use transaction KE4I
FI-COPA Link:
1. PA settlement structure has to be defined using transaction KEI2 so actual posting from FI can be flowed to PA.
2. Then you have to create characteristic group using tra for actual posting using transaction KEPA. Customization you maintain here determine the order of characteristics appear at the time of FI posting.
3. Now, characteristics group create in step 2 has be assigned to transaction using transaction KE4G. Enter RFBU in Bus.Tran. and insert the characteristic group created.
This is how you will be able to flow your FI posting to Profitability Analysis.

Chintan Joshi.

Purch. Req. to COPA link causing problems for PO Goods Receipt

A problem just started occuring in the past week and a half where our Warehouse staff could not receive in goods due to error: "Complete PA transfer structure FI".
What I have found out is that when a Purch. Req. is created with Account Assignment "F" (Internal Order - GR), the corresponding EKBN segment is being created with a Profitability Analysis segment ID (EKBN-PAOBJNR) and the Functional Location field (EKBN-FKBER) is left blank.
Previously, the PA Seg ID has been blank and the Functional Location fields has always contained a value.
This COPA link issue is causing havoc in our Receiving department and I can not find if there was a configurator's transport that caused it (no is fessing up to anything), or if a customer in the MM system set some type of flag -or- is some G/L Account was set up incorrectly that is causing a link to COPA when the PR eventually gets received into inventory.
Help.

I have checked the KEI2 before and for our Assignment 30 we have "Other Costs", and in the "Source" for the Assignment Lines for #30, we have defined a Group (OTHERCOSTS).
This group or set contains the Cost elements which we now have to add to, every time we come across a new cost element or G/L account that is assigned to a PO with line items of Account Assignment Category "F".
The problem is that approximately 3 weeks ago if a PO was created with type "F" line items and the G/L account (cost element) in the Account Assignment portion of the PO was not one that was in the OTHERCOSTS Group/Set ... we had no problem doing the Goods Receipt of the PO -AND- a PA segment was created as well.
For now, we are just adding any new Cost elements to our OTHERCOSTS set if the need arises.

[CS3 JS] event crashes InDesign

Scripting ladies and gentlemen,
I'm working on this event script that searches for linked PDF files and
lets the user copy/relink them. Using the afterOpen eventListener however
crashes InDesign no matter what I do. This is also the case with
beforeClose. It appears that my function cnvrtPDFlnk is causing the crash
(I'm able to alert succesfully with the afterOpen event if I //-comment
the cnvrtPDFLnk(myDocument)).
Do one of you scripting gurues have a tip?
#targetengine "session"
main();
function main() {
   app.addEventListener("afterOpen", myEventFunction, false);
function myEventFunction(myEvent) {
   var myDocument = myEvent.parent;
   var label = docLabel(myDocument, "PDFCheck");
   if(label) {
      //myEvent.stopPropagation();
      //myEvent.preventDefault();
      exit();
   else {
      cnvrtPDFLnk(myDocument);
function docLabel(myDocument, key) {
   var hasLabel = (eval(myDocument.extractLabel(key))?true:false);
   return hasLabel;
function cnvrtPDFLnk(myDocument) {
   var graphics = myDocument.allGraphics;
   var link; var linkExt; var linkType; var linkPath; var linkPageRef; var myConfirm; var myFolder; var myFile; var myOrgPath;
   var myLinkObjects = [];
   for (var i = 0; i < graphics.length; i++) {
      link = graphics[i].itemLink;
      linkExt = link.filePath.split('.').pop().toLowerCase();
      linkType = link.linkType.toLowerCase();
      if (linkExt == 'pdf' || linkType.match('pdf') != null) {
         link.show();
         if(myConfirm= confirm(link.name+"\nDo you want to convert this link?")?myLinkObjects.push(link):alert("Link skipped!\n"+link.name));
   if (myLinkObjects.length > 0) {
      myFolder = Folder.selectDialog("Point me to a hotfolder..");
      copyLink(myLinkObjects, myFolder); // run copyLink function - copies links according to myfolder
      if(myConfirm = confirm("Do you want to relink now?")) {
         reLink(myLinkObjects); // run reLink function - relinks according to myFile dialogue
         app.menuActions.item("Fit Page in Window").invoke();
         app.menuActions.item("First Page").invoke();
   myDocument.insertLabel("PDFCheck", "true");
   }// no links
}// end cnvrtPDFLnk

Hi Rasmus,
Here is an example of scripted plug-in — very simple yet useful for me.
Its goal is to check color settings in InDesign and Photoshop after a document opens. We use two profiles at work: one for the main part of our magazine and another profile for its cover and the inset for another magazine. Sometimes, although rarely, we forget to switch on the correct setting.
That's where the plug-in comes to the aid. After a document opens it checks if the file name contains certain characters – e.g. if file name starts with "Obl_" that means that this is a cover and the script checks the color settings, if they are not correct it gives warning.
Here is short description of how to do it:
Create a new scripted plug-in project from APIDTemplate.indd file.
Open APID panel
Enter 'docLoaded' into Event Filter field and press Enter
Here is the script that does the job (the script file is generated in the same folder as indd-file):
if (theItem.eventCode == "docLoaded") {
   var gKasmyDoc = app.activeDocument;
   var gKasDocumentName = app.activeDocument.name;
   KasCheckProfile();
   KasinfoFromPS();
function KasCheckProfile(){
   var myIssueNumber = parseInt(gKasDocumentName.substr(2, 3));
   if (gKasDocumentName.substr(0, 2) == "Q_" && myIssueNumber >= 730 && myIssueNumber <= 999 && gKasDocumentName.match("_Vshivka") == null){
      if (app.colorSettings.workingSpaceCMYK != "ISO Web Coated"){
         alert("Внимание! Для газеты должен использоваться провиль \"ISO Web Coated\", а установлен. — " + app.colorSettings.workingSpaceCMYK);
   if (gKasDocumentName.substr(0, 2) == "Q_" && myIssueNumber >= 730 && myIssueNumber <= 999 && gKasDocumentName.match("_Vshivka") != null){
      if (app.colorSettings.workingSpaceCMYK != "ImationMatchprn175lpi_avr.icc          "){
         alert("Внимание! Для вшивки должен использоваться провиль \"ImationMatchprn175lpi_avr.icc\", а установлен. — " + app.colorSettings.workingSpaceCMYK);
   else if (gKasDocumentName.substr(0, 4) == "Obl_"){
      if (app.colorSettings.workingSpaceCMYK != "ImationMatchprn175lpi_avr.icc          "){
//         alert("Внимание! Для обложки должен использоваться провиль \"ImationMatchprn175lpi_avr.icc\", а установлен. — " + app.colorSettings.workingSpaceCMYK);
         if (confirm("Внимание! Для обложки должен использоваться провиль \"ImationMatchprn175lpi_avr.icc\", а установлен. — " + app.colorSettings.workingSpaceCMYK)) {
            app.colorSettings.cmsSettings = "Listovaya Mashina";
function KasinfoFromPS() {
   var bt = new BridgeTalk;
   bt.target = "photoshop";
   bt.body = "app.colorSettings;"
   bt.onResult = function(resObj) {
      var myResult = resObj.body;
      KascheckPsColorSettings(myResult);
   bt.send();
function KascheckPsColorSettings(myColorSettings){
   var myIssueNumber = parseInt(gKasDocumentName.substr(2, 3));
   if (gKasDocumentName.substr(0, 2) == "Q_" && myIssueNumber >= 730 && myIssueNumber <= 999 && gKasDocumentName.match("_Vshivka") == null){
      if (myColorSettings != "ISO Web Coated"){
         alert("Внимание в Photoshop! Для газеты должен использоваться провиль \"ISO Web Coated\", а установлен. — \"" + myColorSettings + "\"");
   if (gKasDocumentName.substr(0, 2) == "Q_" && myIssueNumber >= 730 && myIssueNumber <= 999 && gKasDocumentName.match("_Vshivka") != null){
      if (myColorSettings != "Listovaya Mashina"){
         alert("Внимание в Photoshop! Для вшивки должен использоваться провиль \"ImationMatchprn175lpi_avr.icc\", а установлен. — \"" + myColorSettings + "\"");
   else if (gKasDocumentName.substr(0, 4) == "Obl_"){
      if (myColorSettings != "Listovaya Mashina"){
         alert("Внимание в Photoshop! Для обложки должен использоваться провиль \"ImationMatchprn175lpi_avr.icc\", а установлен. — \"" + myColorSettings + "\"");
You can put your own stuff into the script:
if (theItem.eventCode == "docLoaded") {
// do your stuff here
And finally generate the plug-in.

Photo in video cut when going from "Quick" to "Expert"

I created a video using Premiere Elements 11. I used a video I took on a Canon T3I and pics saved on the computer and edited using Photoshop Elements 11. I created the video with the Premiere Elements 11 set to "Quick." With the video created this way it worked fine and it up;loaded to you tube and worked perfectly on there. I then opened the completed video file and saved a copy. I then opened the copy and clicked the "Expert" button. After the screen had changed to go from "quick" to "expert" I noticed that one of the pics in the video was cut and replaced with a red and black screen that says "media off-line" in several languages. The caption from the original pic is still there but when I play the video on Premiere Elements 11 the picture is not there and when the video plays it shows the red and black media offline screen. The pic that was eliminated is a .tiff file. what happened to that pic and how can I fix it? Thanks.

Henry XYZ
I suspect that somewhere along the line you moved the source media that went into the project.prel after the project prel (project file) was saved closed. Let us see.
But, I need to go through your details to see where that might have happened. I want to make sure we are distinguishing between import source media, source media on the Quick view Filmstrip, source media on Expert view Timeline, and the export of the source media to a file.
1. You set up a project with video and photo content in the Quick view. And, uploaded that to YouTube. Am I correct that the uploaded to YouTube was from Quick view Filmstrip via Publish+Share/Online/YouTube?
2. What did you save when you wrote
I then opened the completed video file and saved a copy.
Was that a copy of the project.prel (project file) that you saved via File Menu/Save A Copy or something else?
3. Then you wrote
I then opened the copy and clicked the "Expert" button. After the screen had changed to go from "quick" to "expert" I noticed that one of the pics in the video was cut and replaced with a red and black screen that says "media off-line" in several languages.
Assuming that is the copy of the project.prel file and given that you switched to the Quick To Expert view and noticed a missing photo (.tif) when viewing in Expert view, what next?
a. When you first opened the project.prel copy, apparently it opened in Quick. Did you see the photo at this point?
b. When you went to Expert view and found the photo missing, did you go back to Quick? If so, was the photo still there?
4. Do you have any drive letter changes going on in all this? Where is the source media for this project saved?
Please review. Your reply will help us to help you resolve this matter.
It is not uncommon for the Quick view not to offer features or present as does the Expert view. But I have rarely if ever run into instances of the reverse.
So, please check the save location of the "missing" photo in Expert as to what is going on there. Premiere Elements project has only copies of the source media and these copies link back to the originals at their hard drive save location.
Thanks.

Using Typekit fonts in print projects

I have just started using a Typekit font for my demonstrations.
However, I am interested in using it for my next book but I have questions.
Are the Typekit fonts suitable for print production? They are listed as OpenType. Is that ordinary OpenType?
The Typekit fonts don't show up in the Documet Fonts folder when the job is packaged? If I have to send native ID files to my publisher, what would they have to have to edit the job?
Are the fonts embedded in PDF files?
Anyone have any caveats I should know about?

Mario,
There is absolutely nothing underhanded about what Ben is telling you.
There are two ways you can use the Typekit fonts for print publishing workflows.
(1)     The first way is to compose in InDesign with the Typekit fonts as you would with any fonts that you have otherwise licensed and have installed on your desktop system. For the purposes of printing, export PDF (preferably PDF/X-4 settings) and send the resultant PDF file to your print service provider. All the Typekit fonts are properly embedded in the PDF file and your print service provider should have no issues with printing the text formatted with said fonts.
(2)     The second method assumes that your print service provider (or some intermediary) is going to be doing further edits to your work before producing the PDF file that you would have created per (1) above. Typically you would “package” such documents into a directory structure that copies linked content and fonts. The only difference with the Typekit fonts is that such fonts are not included in the package. But since whoever is going to do those further edits and/or PDF export also needs the CC version of InDesign, they will also have access to the same Typekit fonts that you do via the Creative Cloud software. There is no need to package the fonts from them. If they have older CS versions of InDesign, they will not be able to open your CC version InDesign document anyway.
So what is exactly the problem you are complaining about? You have access to the fonts. Your print service provider has access to the fonts (assuming they have the software necessary to even open up your InDesign document).
The only difference is that Typekti fonts are not available as “loose” font files. You can't install them on any system that isn't currently licensed for the Adobe Creative Cloud.
(For what it is worth, common practice notwithstanding, the ability to package the fonts - other than Typekit fonts and certain Asian fonts - used in an InDesign document does not free the recipient of the obligation to fully and properly license such fonts. The packaging operation is provided as a convenience, not as a substitute for properly licensing the digital assets in question!)

I have set up a second iTunes user account on my PC, but when I create the new iTunes account it copies the music, videos etc from the original account and they seem to be linked. What am I doing wrong?

I have set up a second iTunes user account on my PC, but when I create the new iTunes account it copies the music, videos etc from the original account and they seem to be linked, so that when I delete a song from one library it deletes from the other one.
On the online tutorials I've seen it shows that when you create a new iTunes library it should open as a blank account, but that isn't happening.
What am I doing wrong?

If you have iTunes 11 turn on the Sidebar. Go to iTunes>View and click on Show Sidebar. You can also do a Crtl+S to show the sidebar. The sidebar is where Devices appears. and Control+B to show the Menu bar
If necessary:
iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows
or

InDesign CS4 packages multiple copies of links from book

I use the Book feature to package the 20-some-odd newspaper ads we create weekly at our in-house art dept for a grocery chain. These ads consist of placed JPEGs of products surrounded by supporting copy and prices. Each ad is a different size and sometimes the products vary from ad to ad, but most use links common to eachother.
The trouble I'm having with ID CS4 is that when I package the book containing all these ads, each common link is copied separately for each ad into the Links folder. For example: File.jpg, File_1.jpg, File_2.jpg, etc.
I've experienced this in CS3 only when the links have had the same file name but were linked from different paths. In CS4, even when the .indd files are all linking to the same files with the same paths, extra copies are created.
I've found it tedious to use the Finder to delete all the extra copies and then re-link everything in InDesign.
Is this a bug or am I missing some setting somewhere?
Thanks,
Amanda

I recreated this problem using a single PSD file that I placed in a 6 page Book file. I found that when you resize the image and/or re-crop the picture box, the book package with create copies of the image.
So, my vote is that this is a bug too.

No warning when deleting a Master image that is linked to Virtual Copies?!

Scenario: I am trying to clear out old images to free up storage space, so I go back though thousands of images looking for weak . unrequired shots.
Problem; when dealing with "mass deletions" it is near impossible to detect which images are "Master copies" from which I have any number of Virtual Copies. And when you hit delete you might well be ruining Virtual Copies without knowing it.
Surely there is a way to warn you that pics, X, Y & Z are linked to Xcopy1, YCopy1 & Zcopy1 etc, and give you an IMAGE SPECIFIC option to see those copies and make a choice of delete the master or not? I can't beleive Adobe think its user-freindly to have people trawl through each image to check before a deletion?
I know others have expressed similar concerns, and it seems a REALLY glaring omission in an otherwise decent ptoduct.
Comments from Adobe staff more than welcome.

your responce to the observation from the above forum member is a little inelegant and harsh. It is a very good way of telling you where there are VC's of images, but as you said, your methods are your own. Doing things your way and then asking for help and then biting like that is, well up to you how you reply to those offering help and positive suggestions
I dont' expect Adobe would be so prescriptive and +1 your comment and request is a very valid one

Link between COPA and FI documents

Hello,
I am working on one object in which I am selecting records from CE1NROC table based on some selection criteria and posting these records using FB01 transaction.
The requirement is - There should not be any duplicate posting for the Sales Order + COPA Doc.
Is there any way to check this ?
Please suggest.
Thanks.

COPA report assignment - missing link

Hello
In our COPA line-item reports I have setup some report assignments in a way, that via the outgoing invoice number we step directly into the invoice in VF03. Similar setup has been made for FI dokuments, but the FI document number in the COPA is not copied to FB03 - instead I just get the latest document number I have entered in another transaction.
Before our upgrade from 4.7 to 6.0 this 'feature' did work.
Any ideas what to do?
BR
Søren Kirch

Hi
Unfortunatey this didn't solve my problem.
I have made some report assignments in our COPA reports to the invoice and FI document, but after upgrade from 4.7 to 6.0 the FI document number is no longer linked to COPA (not copied into FB03) eventhough the fiscal year and company code are copied...
Best regards

Linking an object to copies of itself

Can an object be linked to copies of itself, such that
changing the attributes of one object will change the attributes of
all its copies at the same time? For example, if you have the same
button on many slides in a project, it would be very desirable to
change it in one place and have all the changes reflected in its
sister buttons.

Hi Kevin,
This button feature is, of course, not full relational
capability but it can be handy for changing global features.
As far as I can tell (and your question made me curious
enough to do a lot of searching), the only object in Captivate with
the capability you're looking for is common backgrounds, which are
not actually duplicated but multi-used among as many slides as need
the same one. Edit one that is multi-used without first making and
applying another copy and they all get changed!
That functionality, however, should be possible to apply to
other objects (I'd love to have it for repetive captions that I
like to format in specific ways) in a future release. It would
probably, however, require a bit more manipulation for a multi-use
object than a simple copy and paste (it would at least require
naming) ... but if you have a lot of repetition in a project, it
would be woth it. So ... I'm off to the wish list to add my request
to yours!

Table linking FI Doc # and COPA doc #

trying to reconcile fi to copa and there are many manual entries in fi that didnt reach copa. is there a doc flow table per se linking fi doc to copa doc?
thanks

Go to FI Doc and then click on environment and then click on accounting docs to see if you have any Profit Center doc etc to find out the Segment #
Check to see whether you can see that document # in the table CE3XXXX (XXXX is the Operating Concern)
Thanks,

Is there a way to link duplicate objects or artboards so that you can manipulate multiple copies simultaneously?

Is there a way that I can link copies of an object so that I can manipulate one copy and the others will change also in real time?
Maybe with artboards? Wondering if there's a way to make a duplicate instance of an artboard that is 'linked' so it changes when I manipulate the original. Like you can do with files and comps in Aftereffects.
I have a really complicated set of paths that needs to be duplicated in multiple spots throughout a single composition. But I would like to be able to work on them AFTER they've already been placed, and I need each copy to be an exact match.
any help much appreciated. thanks

magnificent,
In addition to what imagecollection said, for some regular repeat patterns you may (also) use Effect>Distort&Transform>Transform with Move and Copies, possibly multiple times with possibly different copy numbers (such as twice for horizontal and vertical), symbol or no symbol.
