Former PageMaker user has questions

Am switching to a Mac from PC. Have used PM for years on both platforms. Currently using PM 7.0 for windows.
I have a lot of files that i would like to be to access without using Boot Camp or going that route.
Can I import my PM docs into Pages or am i better off buying Indesign?
thanx

Far as I know, the only program that can import PageMaker files is InDesign - which did a good job of importing all the import PM templates I'd been using. Whether you can use Pages to replace PM depends on what you were doing with PageMaker.
Lots of things, like brochures and newsletters, I created in PM and ID because it made the task simpler than trying to do it with AppleWorks or Word. I'm now using Pages for quite a few of those tasks (because even with 2GB having ID and Photoshop open (along with the other tools of my daily trade) is a bit too much. But for more demanding tasks I use ID.
iWork has a 30 day downloadable demo - give it a try and see how it works out.

Potential Forms user has questions

I've tried to find basic information about Forms on Oracles's website but have so far failed.
I need technology to build websites quickly.
We already use Oracle here and I wondered about Oracle Forms. I'm not sure if we have it here.
Right now I need to be able to build forms to input data on the web, store that data in a database and be able to retrieve it on the web and make updates. I need to be able to use digital signatures so the forms can be 'signed' by different people.
I'd like the forms data to be available in XML format and the database where it is stored to be accessible by custom-written programs.
The processing needs to be able to email Microsoft Outlook when certain form processing takes place (e.g. signatures).
Its essential that no client software be needed by users accessing the forms - only by the developers that create the forms.
Does Oracle Forms support all/any of this?

I thinks Oracle forms support this.
form can run on browser (IE) but there should be proper website server connection with the database

Former Windows user has basic questions...

Hey everyone:
I purchased my first Mac - a black MacBook laptop - last week. Up to this point, I've used Windows PCs. I am getting frustrated with my Mac because I can't figure out some basic navigational functions. Please help!
Is it possible to add a desktop icon to the Dock on my MacBook laptop? I frequently have to access items in the Macintosh HD. On my IBM I could just add a desktop icon to the bottom nav bar or double-click on the desktop itself to access it. On my MacBook end up having to hit F11 to get there. F11 is fine - except that I don't want to close all the open applications windows. Is there a way to either (1) add a desktop (or Macintosh HD) icon to my dock?
Also, is there a way to navigate open application windows easily (i.e. if I have 3 Firefox windows open and want to surf back and forth between them)? I though the apple key + the ~ key would allow that - but it's not working on my laptop.
Also, in Excel - if it possible to navigate to a cell with a formula and click something that highlights the other cells being referenced for the formula? On my IBM, hitting F2 shows the formula and highlights the referenced cells in different colors. My MacBook Excel only shows the formula...
Thanks!!

Scatterman,
For Photoshop, you might find this info helpful. Also, you might get everything you need from GIMP (open source, free software that does everything Photoshop will do), or one of the products based on it.
It sounds like you would benefit from some quality time spent just "feeling out" the OS X way of doing things, without necessarily jumping right in and trying to work, work, work. Take a bit more time, and pay attention to the little details that you might otherwise overlook.
For example, Expose. Pressing F11 will not close any windows, but it will quickly "wisk" them off the display so you can grab something on your Desktop. Once grabbed, another press of F11 brings all the windows back, just the way they were, and you can place your grabbed item where you like.
Also, drag and drop is more pervasive, goes way deeper, and is more flexible than in Windows. Items (files, folders, etc.) can be dragged into the Dock, but they can also be to either the Finder's Side Bar (left side) or Tool Bar (top) to create semi-permanent "shortcuts." Selected text in any application window can be dragged out of that window to your Desktop (or anywhere else in the Finder) to create "clippings" that work just like the clipboard (cut and paste), only creating semi-permanent "clipping files" that can be dragged into any other application window. I have entire collections of these "text clippings" that I use to populate my forum replies (instructions, links, commands, etc.).
In general, just about anything you are accustomed to in Windows is available in OS X, but it may look and/or feel different. In the end, however, it usually works better/easier/faster the OS X way. Keep looking, check Help, or ask here, and be patient in the meantime. Before you know it, you'll be an OS X wiz!

New Mega Pc User has questions!

Hey Guys, I'm new to this forum. I just bought a Mega PC, running a 2.6 celeron, 1 gig of samsung ram and an 80 gig maxtor HD. I've read through the many threads in this forum but couldn't find what i'm looking for
1) has anyone been able to mod the mega pc so that the LCD can be functional in PC mode? its such a nice display! such a waste to just show the time in pc mode
2) i've read through the forums here and some people say that they can use the remote in PC mode specifically when using windows media player to play music. Did you have to update anything to allow this?
I'm new to this board so any info regarding moding the mega pc in terms of LCD and remote functionality would be great!
finally i place where i can find other mega pc users!

WOuld it be possible for someone to be kind enough to post a link to the greeting program for the LCD display? so many of us would like it!
Also Could you tell me if the light on your card readers is always on?
Also when running MSI live update it always says i need the drivers again after i downloaded! and the version for the mega pc on the web page only does the radio!
i didnt get a CD with the PC so i have the web drivers. am i missing alot?
Did the MSI media center come on the CD?
any one in the UK want to sell me a CDR copy?
if so please email [email protected] can send you a couple of quid on paypal or somthing
yes if you download the latest version of msi radio from the support page, you will be able to use the remote when the computer is on for media player. For example. if the computer is on, and you press "hi fi" on your remote, media player will automcatically open and the lcd lights up and says "cd", has the play arrow and the circle rotates. i wish the equalizer came on! :P
yes my card reader light is always on, don't worry i don't think this really matters
Actually if you run live update 3 (the website based version) it tells you the version you have, and the version on the web. I think its up to you to compare each version and download if necessary.
If you didn't get the cD don't worry you are not missing anyhting i think. IT just had agp, video, network, modem, and audio drivers, all of which are on the website with latest versions. Some utilities are on the cd as well, but all and MORE are found on the website.
AND YES IF ANYONE HAS THE "GREETING" PROGRAM PLEASE POST!!

Forms 10g user logon question???

We've just done an upgrade from 6i to 10g. In 6i the users are externally identified so once they've logged onto the PC they don't need to enter any more logon details to run the forms system.
Can I do the same in 10g? i.e. the user logs onto the client PC but does not have to provide any more logon details when connecting to forms/oracle on the app server? SSO still needs them to re-enter their logon details when running up the forms session???? Can we avoid this?

Thanks, but that still requires the user to logon again after they have logged onto the client machine. They need to logon to the SSO system.
Is there anyway to pick up the logon from the client as in forms 6i - externally authenticated, meaning once they're logged on to the client PC they don't need to logon again - to anything????

AProTools User Has Questions?

So I have a pretty elaborate ProTools System.
Hd2 w/ separate G5 to output uncompressed HD/SDI video to a 50" plasma.
I just got booked on a job and they want to mix using STP.
Can I use My Digi Hardware, or do I need a firewire audio box?
Can I use my PLug-Ins (TDM / RTAS)?
Can STP export Midi TimCode?
Can I work with Full Frame Picture on my Plasma or do I need to work on the
Computer monitor?
Can I use a Command 8 Midi Control Surface?

Can I use My Digi Hardware, or do I need a firewire
audio box?
You can use your Digi hardware with the Digi CoreAudio drivers
Can I use my PLug-Ins (TDM / RTAS)?
No, you'll need AudioUnits versions of those.
Can STP export Midi TimCode?
Yes
Can I work with Full Frame Picture on my Plasma or do
I need to work on the
Computer monitor?
You can export video to FW. However, I think that when you use a Canopus or anything like that, the audio is output to the video device...
Can I use a Command 8 Midi Control Surface?
I don't think so. STP is only compatible with Mackie Control protocol
Honestly, try to convince the guys who hired you to forget about using STP...

Former PC user has a problem with volume short cut

Can someone help me? My mac book pro is 2 weeks old and somehow I just disengaged the handy volume short cuts on the keyboard. How do I get the volume controls and mute button to come back to F3-F5?

Hi, lycidas, and welcome to the discussions.
Try heading to System Preferences (under the Apple menu). Now select "Keyboard and Mouse" and choose the "Keyboard" tab.
Make sure there ISN'T a tick in the box next to "Use all F1, F2 etc. keys as standard function keys".

How to make a slide wait until user has answered a question correctly, even after activating a smartshape?

Background:
I have created a quiz in which the user must answer each question correctly before proceeding to the next slide. This is what I did:
Set preferences to Settings > Required > Answer All - The user must answer every question to continue
Set the number of attempts on the question level to Infinite
Made the Next button invisible and disabled the playbar
This way, the user can only proceed to the next question slide with the Submit process – and, since attempts are infinite, that means only after successfully answering the question.
Current goal:
I want the user to be able to click on a prompt for a hint. To set this up, I did the following:
Created a smartshape labeled “click_for_hint” displaying text that says, “Click here for a hint”
Created a smartshape labeled “hint” displaying text hint
Set “click_for_hint” to show “hint” on success
Now, when the user clicks on the text that says, “Click here for a hint,” the hint pops up. So, that works – awesome! However, once the hint is activated, I would like for the user to be able to continue infinite attempts until successfully answering the question… and only then, after answering correctly, proceed to the next slide.
The problem:
If the user has submitted one or more incorrect answers and then activates the hint, the slide no longer waits until the user has answered the question correctly. Instead, it automatically resumes playing, proceeding to the next slide. I tried setting the smartshape “hint” to pause on success, but that did not work.
Is there a way to make the slide wait until the question is answered correctly before proceeding to the next slide, even after the hint has been activated?

Are you aware of the fact that your Required setting can cause problems, blocking the user? It is also totally unnecessary, because you have infinite attempts on question level, and did hide the Next button (hope you don't need Review, otherwise I would recommend not to hide that button but to drag it under the Clear button: Question Question Slides in Captivate - Captivate blog)
The hint problem is linked with the fact that a simple action will release the playhead. I would like to see the timeline of the slide, to compare the pausing points of the shape button and the question slide. And maybe this blog post can also clarify difference between simple/advanced: Why choose Standard over Simple action? - Captivate blog
As for shape buttons on question slides: Buttons on Question/Score Slides in Captivate 6? - Captivate blog

Can i see what questions a user has answered incorrectly??

Hi
We have various Captivate training modules that are placed on a GeoLearning LMS.
All the modules have 5 Questions at the end. The quiz preferances are set up in such away that the user is required to get 100% to pass and is allowed to retake the quiz one more time if they fail first time round.
My issue is that some of our users in Malaysia are failing the course even after the second attempt.... yes its fine and simpl enough to re-asign them the course but ideally i would like to see what question they are failing on.... if there is a trend then maybe there is a gap in the actual training material.
Is it possible for me to review the quid the user has taken and understand where thay are answering incorrectly?
Any help appreciated
Darren

All
i have been using this Wodget now and the data is appearing on the adobe dashboard .. Brilliant
1 question... if i have a course set so the user can retake the quiz another time if they get it wrong will there quiz results be sent to the dashboard twice, or will only the second attempt be logged?
For example i have a module with 5 questions and a pass rate of 100%
If the user gets 2 questions wrong they then have the option to retake... hopefully then getting them all correct... if not they then Fail the course and need to be re assigned it.
If they pass on the second attempt will the dashboard show that the 5 questions have been taken twice and 2 were answered incorrectly the forst time... or will just the second attempt here they got them all correct be logged?
Thanks

User has to enter a specified number of CHARs length while filling the form

Hello
I am developing a interactive form, which got context interface from WebDynPro ABAP. I have a input field on the form, its NAME, i binded it with NAME1 of WebDynPro context, in SAP its length is 35 CHARs.
My requirement is user can not enter more than 35 CHARs in the form, while user is fillling it. So, to achive this,
1) Its enough just binding form NAME to WebDynPro SAP NAME1 attribute of context, then, SAP will automatically take care this?
2) or do i need to put the 35 number lenght in Max Chars field of Object-Field in the FORM?
Thank you

Hi,
While binding a field on layout you get an option to specify properties of the field in regards with bound data element. If there you have chosen the property of max chars then its not mandatory to specify it again in object properties of the field. But if you have not mentioned it while binding then it will be required to separately mention in the object property.

How to check if the user has only the display authority of a message

hi,
How to check if the user has only the display authority of a message but does not have the change authority for a certain message?
Best regards,

hi blake
though i am an application consultant and for authorisation u need to have help of BASIS person if u r not the one but still i can guide u regarding the same,
Basically Authorization Management
Use
You can use the following authorization objects to control the authorizations for maintaining business partner data:
        Authorization objects for the Business Partner:
             B_BUPA_GRP
             B_BUPA_ATT
             B_BUPA_FDG
             B_BUPA_RLT
Authorization objects for relationships:
             B_BUPR_BZT
             B_BUPR_FDG
In addition, you can assign an authorization group to a business partner in the dialog. The authorization group controls which users may maintain data for this business partner.
You can also define authorizations for fields and field groups using the Business Data Toolset (BDT). Depending on the settings you have made, the system carries out the relevant authorization checks.
In the dialog in the SAP GUI, you can display an overview of the authorizations assigned to you by pressing the button Settings.
For more information on authorization management, see the Implementation Guide (IMG) of the Business Partner, as well as in the Developers Handbook for the BDT under Authorizations.
IntegrationAuthorization management for the Business Partner forms part of the SAP authorization concept.
Prerequisites
You have made the necessary settings in Customizing of the Business Partner under Basic Settings--> -Address Management.
Moving over
AS ABAP Authorization Concept
The ABAP authorization concept protects transactions, programs, and services in SAP systems from unauthorized access. On the basis of the authorization concept, the administrator assigns authorizations to the users that determine which actions a user can execute in the SAP system, after he or she has logged on to the system and authenticated himself or herself.
To access business objects or execute SAP transactions, a user requires corresponding authorizations, as business objects or transactions are protected by authorization objects. The authorizations represent instances of generic authorization objects and are defined depending on the activity and responsibilities of the employee. The authorizations are combined in an authorization profile that is associated with a role. The user administrators then assign the corresponding roles using the user master record, so that the user can use the appropriate transactions for his or her tasks.
Authorization Checks
To ensure that a user has the appropriate authorizations when he or she performs an action, users are subject to authorization checks.
The following actions are subject to authorization checks that are performed before the start of a program or table maintenance and which the SAP applications cannot avoid:
        Starting SAP transactions (authorization object S_TCODE)
        Starting reports (authorization object S_PROGRAM)
        Calling RFC function modules (authorization object S_RFC)
        Table maintenance with generic tools (S_TABU_DIS)
Checking at Program Level with AUTHORITY-CHECK
Applications use the ABAP statement AUTHORITY-CHECK, which is inserted in the source code of the program, to check whether users have the appropriate authorization and whether these authorizations are suitably defined; that is, whether the user administrator has assigned the values required for the fields by the programmer. In this way, you can also protect transactions that are called indirectly by other programs.
AUTHORITY-CHECK searches profiles specified in the user master record to see whether the user has authorization for the authorization object specified in the AUTHORITY-CHECK. If one of the authorizations found matches the required values, the check is successful.
Starting SAP Transactions
When a user starts a transaction, the system performs the following checks:
        The system checks in table TSTC whether the transaction code is valid and whether the system administrator has locked the transaction.
        The system then checks whether the user has authorization to start the transaction.
The SAP system performs the authorization checks every time a user starts a transaction from the menu or by entering a command. Indirectly called transactions are not included in this authorization check. For more complex transactions, which call other transactions, there are additional authorization checks.
             The authorization object S_TCODE (transaction start) contains the field TCD (transaction code). The user must have an authorization with a value for the selected transaction code.
             If an additional authorization is entered using transaction SE93 for the transaction to be started, the user also requires the suitable defined authorization object (TSTA, table TSTCA).
If you create a transaction in transaction SE93, you can assign an additional authorization to this transaction. This is useful, if you want to be able to protect a transaction with a separate authorization. If this is not the case, you should consider using other methods to protect the transaction (such as AUTHORITY-CHECK at program level).
        The system checks whether the transaction code is assigned an authorization object. If so, a check is made that the user has authorization for this authorization object.
The check is not performed in the following cases:
You have deactivated the check of the authorization objects for the transaction (with transaction SU24) using check indicators, that is, you have removed an authorization object entered using transaction SE93. You cannot deactivate the check for objects from the SAP NetWeaver and HR areas.
This can be useful, as a large number of authorization objects are often checked when transactions are executed, since the transaction calls other work areas in the background. In order for these checks to be executed successfully, the user in question must have the appropriate authorizations. This results in some users having more authorization than they strictly need. It also leads to an increased maintenance workload. You can therefore deactivate authorization checks of this type in a targeted manner using transaction SU24.
             You have globally deactivated authorization objects for all transactions with transaction SU24 or transaction SU25.
             So that the entries that you have made with transactions SU24 and SU25 become effective, you must set the profile parameter AUTH/NO_CHECK_IN_SOME_CASES to Y (using transaction RZ10).
All of the above checks must be successful so that the user can start the transaction. Otherwise, the transaction is not called and the system displays an appropriate message.
Starting Report Classes
You can perform additional authorization checks by assigning reports to authorization classes (using report RSCSAUTH). You can, for example, assign all PA* reports to an authorization class for PA (such as PAxxx). If a user wants to start a PA report, he or she requires the appropriate authorization to execute reports in this class.
We do not deliver any predefined report classes. You must decide yourself which reports you want to protect in this way. You can also enter the authorization classes for reports with the maintenance functions for report trees. This method provides a hierarchical approach for assigning authorizations for reports. You can, for example, assign an authorization class to a report node, meaning that all reports at this node automatically belong to this class. This means that you have a more transparent overview of the authorization classes to which the various reports are transported.
You must consider the following:
              After you have assigned reports to authorization classes or have changed assignments, you may have to adjust objects in your authorization concept (such as roles (activity groups), profiles, or user master records).
              There are certain system reports that you cannot assign to any authorization class. These include:
              RSRZLLG0
              STARTMEN (as of SAP R/3 4.0)
              Reports that are called using SUBMIT in a customer exit at logon (such as SUSR0001, ZXUSRU01).
              Authorization assignments for reports are overwritten during an upgrade. After an upgrade, you must therefore restore your customer-specific report authorizations.
Calling RFC Function Modules
When RFC function modules are called by an RFC client program or another system, an authorization check is performed for the authorization object S_RFC in the called system. This check uses the name of the function group to which the function module belongs. You can deactivate this check with parameter auth/rfc_authority_check.
Checking Assignment of Authorization Groups to Tables
You can also assign authorization groups to tables to avoid users accessing tables using general access tools (such as transaction SE16). A user requires not only authorization to execute the tool, but must also have authorization to be permitted to access tables with the relevant group assignments. For this case, we deliver tables with predefined assignments to authorization groups. The assignments are defined in table TDDAT; the checked authorization object is S_TABU_DIS.
You can assign a table to authorization group Z000. (Use transaction SM30 for table TDDAT) A user that wants to access this table must have authorization object S_TABU_DIS in his or her profile with the value Z000 in the field DICBERCLS (authorization group for ABAP Dictionary objects).

See if a user has a record open

Hi all,
We have been caught out by two users editting the same form (BP/Quote etc) and of course losing the actions of one user as it isn't until they ty and update the form that they are told that it cannot be done due to another user.
Is it possible to see if a user has opened the form or has it in edit mode - at which ever point SAP locks the record so it can't be updated by anothe user?
We don't mind if its just a query that updates a search define that updates a UDF, as long as we can see that the record is open already - or is there an easy way we are not aware of?
Any help is much appreciated.
Kind Regards,
Matthew

Matthew,
I understand that this can be frustrating at times but the whole purpose of a multi-user environment is the possiblity for multiple users to use the system at the same time. Transaction are no different as there could be different departments accessing the same transaction but it is the way SQL works that two people cannot edit the same transaction.
The first user who updates the transaction change the current values and the data on the screen of other user has already changed and thats why you get the message " Another user modified table ..."
Unfortunately there is nothing you could do about it for now.

How to find out which user has the permission to execute startsap ?

Hi All
How do I find out which user has the permission to execute the startsap and stopsap? Do I control the permission on those script using windows standard authorization? For example: only allow certain user have the read and write permission?
Thank you.!
Vincent Lo

Well to me this is really weird question..
<b>noone un-authorized should have access to OS on your system</b>
If this is valid you do not need to solve problems who can and who cannot start/stop SAP, because if you want to prevent some users from shutting down the SAP you have really hard job to do - there are many ways how to kill the SAP (for example killing relevant process from task manager, killing of database, messing with services etc.) - yes, this is harmful way of stopping SAP, but we are talking about attack, right? I would contact some Windows specialist to help you disable all the ways how to harm the running SAP. But still after that - there are many files that can be modified/deleted so SAP will crash after restart - you need to protect them too, etc.
In case you take the first assumption as granted (and you really limit access to this server) you do not need to worry who can stop or start SAP - at the other hand it may be handy to be able to start/stop SAP from other users - for this you can run the stop/start script "under different user".
But to answer the question - to me this is question just of access control (but really never tried that myself):
<a href="http://technet2.microsoft.com/WindowsServer/en/library/c6413717-511e-42bd-bd81-82431afe4b2a1033.mspx">Permit or restrict access to a snap-in for a domain</a> (or see other related links down there on this page)
Please award points for useful answers.

Reader SDK: any way to see what text the user has selected?

I'm using the Adobe Reader SDK with C#, looking at the interapplication communication features.
I can open a document in Reader and allow the user to user the reader tools like select text, etc.
Here's the problem: I want to have my application know what text the user currently has selected. And I'd like it to know the name of the field that the user has selected, not just the text of the field.
Microsoft Office's Interop has something like this:
currentDocument.GetSelectedText();
Is there any way to do this with IAC or the javascript or plug-in features of the Reader SDK?
If not, can it be done with the Acrobat API? I've looked through both sets of documentation, and haven't found what i needed.
Thanks for any help!

To write a plug-in for the Adobe Reader you need to go through 2 separate steps.
Step one - Download the Adobe Acrobat SDK (from here http://www.adobe.com/devnet/acrobat)
and build your plug-in against the Acrobat product, following the documentation to make sure you only use API's that are available in the Reader program. The documentation tells you what version of the Adobe ACrobat or Reader program is needed for the function and whether the function can be called in Reader.
Step two - Apply for a Reader certificate to allow your plug-in to be loaded by the Reader, the link is on the same web page as the above link. This step can be initiated before you have created your plug-in, and I would recommend that you do start this process before you develop your plug-in as Adobe can refuse to give you the certificate in which case all your development would be wasted.
Only once you have permission form Adobe can you make your plug-in work with the reader application.
Once you have done both these steps there are plenty of people on this forum that can help you with specific problems you may encounter.
If you are not sure you have the knowledge to build the plug-in, there are plenty of people that you can hire to create the solution for you.

Identify when a user has change value in USEREXIT_CHECK_VBAP before saving

I originally posted and closed this question, but I am still struggling with the code.
The req is now to also update the value of VBAP-LPRIO, so I now have to use the Exit : USEREXIT_CHECK_VBAP.
The issue is that my solution must take into account when a user manually overwrites a value and not replace it with a value determined in the user exit.
My problem is that the user might do the following
1 - Create a sales order and enter a new item line, press enter
2 - The user exit is triggered, and I check that XVBAP-UPDKZ = I (user add a new line)
3 - The user-exit determines the new value and populates the field
4- the user then click on the item line, and then manually changes the value of VBAP-LPRIO
5- The user-exit is triggered again, and because XVBAP-UPDKZ = I , my code is triggered and updates the field.
What I want is to identify that a user has manually changed the value and not overwritte the value.
1 - I have check YVBAP and it is blank, as the user has not saved the sales order.
2- The values of VBAP and XVBAP are the same..
3 - I cannot re-read the database (KNVV) table as the user could have populate the value with the same value.
What I need is how to identify when a user has made a change to a field before they save the sales item, as YVBAP is never filled.
Previous post----
Hello,
I am writing a bit of code that will overwrite the payment terms in a sales order item based on a number of factors. (ship-to, incoterms, document type, etc)
I am using the following program MV45AFZB at Exit : USEREXIT_CHECK_VBAP. I am using this exit as the users need to see the payment terms after an item has been entered into the sales order and not have the value determined at sales order save.
I am not using USEREXIT_MOVE_FIELD_TO_VBAP as it is only triggered once at the time of creation and not when I change the document. I need it in USEREXIT_CHECK_VBAP as users could change the incoterms in VA02, so the code must be redetermined.
My code is working as expected, however, I have a problem when a user enters a sales order item line and then manually changes the payment terms, as my code then is over writes the users values.
The flow is as follows
As user creates a sales order
They populate the sales order header
They populate material number and qty
User exit USEREXIT_CHECK_VBAP is triggered and correctly determines the payment terms
The user then double clicks on the sales order item and decides to overwrite the payment terms.
My user-exit is retriggered and check to see if XVBAP-UPDKZ = I (insert)
As it is still an insert, my code triggers.
I have tried to check YVBAP, but no entry exist as it stills is seen as in insert? What I really need to know that while it is still an insert, the user has change the field value and my code should not over write the users value.

When do you need to update LPRIO ? When user makes the change at the Payment terms on line item?
