General issue

hi all,
can any one explanation about the given senarios:
Credit Memo (for goods returned, damages, disputes etc,)
1. Entering of Credit memo and adjusting against invoices.(business senarios)
Invoice selected and credit memo adjusted.(expacted results)
what all the t codes to be process by sap end user.

HI,
Credit memo can be raised through F-27 for customers with an invoice ref.
Aster you can clear the Credit Memo with the Invoice through F-32, the invoice amount will get adjusted once you clear them.
Enter the Customer no in the Header Screen screen and in the process open items screen.

Mac book pro - general issues i'm having

I swear since i bought my macbook pro 9 months ago there has been nothing but trouble with it. The longer i have it the more that seems to go wrong. Now i have a few issues and were wondering if these were normal or not really.
The first issue i have is with the touch pad button. Over time it feels as if it has become slightly raised to one side since i tend to use the left side of it to click down on and my right hand to maneuver the track pad. Anyway basically the right side has now become raised up and makes a horrible clicking noise whenever its used and has to be pressed down with alot of pressure.
Another issue i've had is the heat of my laptop. I know they get hot on your legs which isn't the issue. I'm more worried if it's healthy for it to be so hot. Using a widget i have i can check the temp of certain parts, some parts get up to 70 degrees celcius or more =/. On a normal computer that would mean goodbye from what i know.
Atm just using safari and nothing else but coconut battery open here's the following temperatures (Degrees Celcius):
HD: 42
CPU A: 57
Airport Card: 55
Enclosure base: 36
GPU Diode: 65
GPU Heatsink: 56
Heat Sink A: 57
Heat sink B: 45
Now I'm a big multi tasker, and when i have photoshop, firefox, safari (I us them both for different tasks) and illustartor open as well as MSN and skype these can get in excess of 60 degrees C. When playing games it gets even worse, often 70+ degrees C. Now these temperatures are worrying to me. Should i be worried?
Now i also have the issue of my macbook pro being horribly sluggish. My hard drive has 60GB free. Now what possibly may be the problem is I have windows XP dual booted as well as I often use a virtual machine for MIRC (I have yet to find a decent alternate mac based client i'm happy with). Anyway what can i do to increase my performance, because i'm not very happy right now with how sluggish it gets.
Another problem is the damned chargers. I am currently on my third one. I'm worried that when my warrenty goes im going to have to keep replacing them =/. My first one basically overheated, sparked and died. Wouldnt work no more. Second one the cord had exposed wires at the base of the charger. Now has anyone else had issues with this?
Ok, and that's it for now.

What gets to 70ºC, smash_you2 ? There is nothing abnormal about CPU temps around 70ºC when the computer is working moderately hard. Core 2 Duo temps can get much higher than this. Many Dell users, for example were reporting temps closer to 100ºC for their C2D CPU's on their discussion boards recently. 70ºC is typical of working fairly hard, but far from extreme.
One thing I would be worried about from your comments, though, is the suggestion of deformation in the track pad/ button area. THis can sometimes result from a defective battery becoming deformed. THis, in turn can result in greater heat from the charging system and the battery itself. I'd be more stressed about this possibility than the temperatures that your widget is quoting. Check your battery condition using system profiler.
Running in "dual boot" mode will, of course, always diminish performance generally, as your computer won't have the same CPU and memory resources available for the primary OS that it would otherwise possess.

General issues during Installation

Hi Experts,
What are issues generally we are facing during installation of data sources and loading of data in to DSO or Cube.(with real time example).
and how that can be solved?

Discussed so many times.
While installing the BC DS based on the Data flow the error occurs, Normally the Shortdump if you select much Object at Grouping with Dataflow before after based on the time lines.
The Connectivity / RFC issues between the systems
The Data Init fails due to data inconsistencies.
Hope it helps and clear

Leopard general issues (slow boot-Blue screen of tolerance)?

I upgraded it to leopard 10.5.2 a week ago. I thought my old system with tiger (10.4.11) used to boot faster and work faster and I thought I was being cynical. I just checked with my buddy's computer which is completely identical to mine (2GHz intel Core 2 Duo, 2gb ram, 120gb hard disk macbook). She still has tiger 10.4.10. It boots drastically faster. As soon as dark grey apple disappears tiger shows a progress bar showing the log on process and it logs on in less than 5 secs. Overall boot up was around 20secs. First of all I don't know why leopard doesn't have that progress bar. Secondly leopard hangs on a blue screen during startup for another 20 seconds which makes the overall time 40-50 secs.
I deleted all cache everything and unused files while installing. I never got a blue screen of death either. It is almost a clean install. People might suggest erase/install or archive/install but I checked other forums people suffering with this issue has not been successful to eradicate it this way.
I checked my logs. they are pretty clean except some launchctl convert stuff.
I am pretty convinced it is leopard issue.
I have two questions:
1) Is Apple aware of this issue (blue screen on startup for 20 sec) and would be address it in next update? or is it not fixable?
2) Can I somehow have that auto-logon progress bar back?
3) Sidebar fonts are very small. Tiger sidebar was much easier to use. Is their a way to increase font size.
In general I am quite disappointed with Leopard. It is much slower especially with respect to finder windows. I wish I could downgrade to Tiger but it is to much hassle..taking backup..reinstalling all applications. I kinda like quicklook too. I'll miss it if I downgrade.
I would like to know whether apple addresses such issues in upgrades? I am patient.

I have two questions:
Actually I count three questions.
1) Is Apple aware of this issue (blue screen on startup for 20 sec) and would be address it in next update? or is it not fixable?
Not a problem with OS X. More likely a problem with your installation or setup. I have 5 Macs running Leopard and have no similar problem nor ever have. Although boot times differ with hardware, startupitems, login items, etc. they are not much different. My Mac Pro takes half the time as my laptops typically.
2) Can I somehow have that auto-logon progress bar back?
No. It's no longer included in OS X.
3) Sidebar fonts are very small. Tiger sidebar was much easier to use. Is their a way to increase font size.
Not aware of any control over this in Leopard, but if there is someone else may let you know.
If you want to improve performance on your computer then try some maintenance:
Kappy's Personal Suggestions for OS X Maintenance
For disk repairs use Disk Utility. For situations DU cannot handle the best third-party utilities are: Disk Warrior; DW only fixes problems with the disk directory, but most disk problems are caused by directory corruption; Disk Warrior 4.0 is now Intel Mac compatible. TechTool Pro provides additional repair options including file repair and recovery, system diagnostics, and disk defragmentation. TechTool Pro 4.6.1 is Leopard compatible; Drive Genius is similar to TechTool Pro in terms of the various repair services provided. The current version, 1.5.1, is Intel Mac compatible.
OS X performs certain maintenance functions that are scheduled to occur on a daily, weekly, or monthly period. The maintenance scripts run in the early AM only if the computer is turned on 24/7 (no sleep.) If this isn't the case, then an excellent solution is to download and install a shareware utility such as Macaroni, JAW PseudoAnacron, or Anacron that will automate the maintenance activity regardless of whether the computer is turned off or asleep.
OS X automatically defrags files less than 20 MBs in size, so unless you have a disk full of very large files there's little need for defragmenting the hard drive. As for virus protection there are few if any such animals affecting OS X. You can protect the computer easily using the freeware Open Source virus protection software ClamXAV. Personally I would avoid most commercial anti-virus software because of their potential for causing problems.
I would also recommend downloading the shareware utility TinkerTool System that you can use for periodic maintenance such as removing old logfiles and archives, clearing caches, etc.
For emergency repairs install the freeware utility Applejack. If you cannot start up in OS X, you may be able to start in single-user mode from which you can run Applejack to do a whole set of repair and maintenance routines from the commandline. Note that presently AppleJack is not compatible with Leopard.
When you install any new system software or updates be sure to repair the hard drive and permissions beforehand. I also recommend booting into safe mode before doing system software updates.
Get an external Firewire drive at least equal in size to the internal hard drive and make (and maintain) a bootable clone/backup. You can make a bootable clone using the Restore option of Disk Utility. You can also make and maintain clones with good backup software. My personal recommendations are (order is not significant):
1. Retrospect Desktop (Commercial - not yet universal binary)
2. Synchronize! Pro X (Commercial)
3. Synk (Backup, Standard, or Pro)
4. Deja Vu (Shareware)
5. PsynchX 2.1.1 and RsyncX 2.1 (Freeware)
6. Carbon Copy Cloner (Freeware - 3.0 is a Universal Binary)
7. SuperDuper! (Commercial)
8. Data Backup (Commercial)
The following utilities can also be used for backup, but cannot create bootable clones:
1. Backup (requires a .Mac account with Apple both to get the software and to use it.)
2. Toast
3. Impression
4. arRSync
Apple's Backup is a full backup tool capable of also backing up across multiple media such as CD/DVD. However, it cannot create bootable backups. It is primarily an "archiving" utility as are the other two.
Impression and Toast are disk image based backups, only. Particularly useful if you need to backup to CD/DVD across multiple media.
Visit The XLab FAQs and read the FAQs on maintenance, optimization, virus protection, and backup and restore.

Some General Issue Questions

Rather than search thru a lot of messages, thought I'd post a
synopsis of all my recent issues and see if anyone has any
solutions/suggestions...
(1) When I publish, some of my "click Next" hot spots (go to
next slide) do not render in the published Flash move files -
however, they truly exist and are properly configured in the cp
file - and seem to work fine in Preview (movie) mode.
(2) The application I'm trying to "captivate" is a web app,
built using a combination of frames, javascript, and dhtml
components. Most of the mouse clicks I make while recording are
useless, as they are usually AHEAD OF what's actually happening
on-screen, although what I'm capturing APPEARS to be accurate and
where I am on the screen. I initially tried do-overs, and got so
frustrated (changing how quickly I moved the mouse, struck keys,
etc.), that I just turned off the Full Motion recording options,
slowed the frames per second - all of these things, several times,
trying different combindations - nothing was successful.
Any suggestions for settings? Basically, I'm capturing a
sequence of screens and putting in all the information into text
boxes and manually inserting click boxes to create a "demo" - in my
opinion, totally defeating the intent and purpose of using
Captivate to begin with.
At this point, I've spent so much time experimenting and
trying to get the "automated" features to work, I've basically
turned them all off and am doing everything manually, just like
PowerPoint.
So, why is Captivate so much better than PowerPoint? Other
than the Flash rendering of the files, I don't see it...
Anybody experience any of these things?
Thanks and regards,
cyn

Hello thiah,
It sounds like you are very frustrated....
1 - I have never had this issue with Next buttons. Perhaps
you can provide more details on the settings on your next button?
2 - I would definitely remove the full motion recording. I
use the recording feature rarely in general, as I need to modify
the screens to change proprietary data. I usually take screen
captures, modify the screen in Photoshop, then insert the bmp image
as an image slide.
But, I find that the record feature it can be very handy and
a quick easy way to create a demo. Captivate is def better than PPT
for many reasons - the timeline, the ability to insert a mouse
movement, ability to publish as Flash, the ability to customize the
size of the movie or demonstration, ability to have click boxes,
buttons, text entries, etc.
As far as suggestion for settings when recording - on the
Recording Options tab, I usually have Enable Auto Recording
selected and I use the demonstration mode, select to record
keystrokes and hear tap sounds, hear camera sounds during
recording, and move new windows inside recording area.
A good tip to remember, if you think that Captivate didn't
capture a screen while you are recording, you can always hit
<Print Scrn> to capture the screen. If it becomes a
duplicate, you can always delete the slide.
Hope this helps. I love Captivate.... it has it's quirks -
but nothing that can't be worked with.

Finder long term general issues, apple not solving

I have been using mac and their finder since 1991 or so and since osx things seem to go off the rails increasingly. I thought it is time to try to collect and mention them... maybe apple becomes aware of them ?....
In os8.6 and 9 the finder was working for me but since OSX10.1 finder still can not keep the icons in the place that I put them in .... and that after many years of OSX... Some examples: (1) grid size scaling only moves icons horizontally (2) grid is not stable but changes, new icons are all over the place but not on the old grid that you had when you arranged the icons some time ago, and you have to select all and drag them around to get them aligned on the "NEW" grid. This action can badly mess up the original icon positions. (3) you can place icons on top of each other, but only 1 by one ?? (4) is there a way to LOCK I mean FIX POSITION of the icon? (5) what does the "use as defaults" button actually do? (6) Every time I plug in another display my desktop icons are completely hassled, I have no idea to which order, sometimes multiple icons on top of each other.
And many more bugs.... is no one debugging their finder application?
I still find it unbelievable that the pop-up windows they had in OS8.6 still have not been re-invented and that I need to use drop drawers to get this functionality.
Another objection is that there is lacking support for power users. I want to access stuff via a keyboard, keyboard shortcuts for all dialogs, avoid a mouse, see hidden files, and when I give the computer a command it should JUST DO IT, not nag me with "are you really sure blablabla" and force me to use a mouse to click tiny OK buttons. When I ask umount my disk should eject, not give a vague message, nor should the computer crash when I force the eject. Let the applications crash if that's the problem (at least we know what the problem is) but not the OS...
Another major annoyance is unresponsiveness of the finder. Many times I see nothing happen. Or often, spinning pizzas only. IMHO responsiveness is design rule number 1. SHOW the user that the system is doing what he asked. Without quick response I start killing the task and even that is unresponsive in 10.6 in some cases. I remember particularly trying to kill a final cut studio compressor job and I had to wait for 20 seconds or so before even the kill-task interface popped up. And after more than 30 seconds I'm usually reaching for the power button..... which happens increasingly often in spite that my computer is now 1000 times faster than the one I used for os8.6..
I use the finder to control my computer, if anything should be robust and fast it's this part.

Since most of your post is related to how MacOS works, or doesn't (in it's normal fashion), and not to bugs or problems that can be solved by users on this forum, you will probably need to voice your opinion directly to Apple (we don't work for them, and they don't post here officially):

If you need help trouble shooting a specific issue then you should post a new thread about it so that you might get help from people who have experience with the exact same issue.

General issues with N96

Wondering if someone might be able to help me out with some of the below on my N96 (new firmware installed)... haha be prepared, it's long..
PHOTO GALLERY:
1) occasionally, the phone seems to scramble the pics and names/dates in my gallery (ie: it shows the name/date of one item, yet the pic does not match it - but if you go to edit it, the correct pic comes up. And if you try to rename it, then it shows the new name, but with a different pic. and it goes round in circles..)
Note this also happens with the preinstalled pics.
2) When I connect it to Mass Storage on the PC, every single photo shows as screwed up (the colours are all blurred, some are corrupted, some come up like negatives etc. this includes the preinstalled ones)
I have bluetoothed a number fo photo's to my n73 and connected that to Pc and the photo's come out perfectly.
I have also deleted all the photo's and put them all back in again which seems to fix problem (1) above (for a while), but not problem (2).
TURNING ON/OFF DELETES DATA:
3) sometimes when I turn the phone off (just to reboot occasionally, or if it hangs and I have no choice) it deletes all my messages (yes I have checked the settings to see where the messages have been stored), and it also makes some of my pics and vids corrupted/invalid, rendering them no longer able to view.
MUSIC PLAYER:
was playing one minute, then all of a sudden there were no songs available, but they are still playable in music manager.
I've read discussions on this and am yet to try the fixes, but this is just another one of my issues. Will try them soon.
MASS STORAGE ON PC:
There appear to be a number of files/sub-folders which contain corrupted/unable to delete data. These folders I know should not be there (there are some in my images, video, and music folders) and they're names are all in what looks like "wingdings". Is this what is screwing up my applications? and if so how do I get rid of them?
I know that reformatting the mass storage will probably fix all of this, but I'm hoping I won't have to get to that point haha, i know this sounds like a whole buinch of whinging, but really it's not - I'd just like to see these main things work cos the errors seem strange. So long as my calling and tetxting doesn't pack up I'm still relatively happy and the phone is awesome when everythings working.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Hiya! That's what someone else said to me as well...
Funny thing is that I've never just pulled the battery out without shutting off first (never had to cos for some reason the on/off button is the only thing that still works when the phone is frozen...), and even when connected to PC, I always use the "safely remove hardware" thing at the bottom right hand corner of the PC.
And as for the photo's (the preinstalled ones) when I first plugged my phone into Mass storage (before I had stored any other photo's inside) they were already showing up screwed..
But I guess there's no harm doing a reformat so I'll give that a go later
Will it delete applications like Ngage and Office and everything? I don't have a memory card to back up my stuff to... and i'm not sure if I trust "Mass storage-PC" to do it.

If there are specific items with Structured FM or DITA, please use the thread in the Structured FM Forum - http://forums.adobe.com/thread/493912
This patch should update your version to FM9.0p250.

Here I'm only using roman text. I encounter the same problems with several chinese and japanese fonts, which either completely don't work, or only certain fonts out of a family don't work. Interesting: In most cases the "W5" or "Medium" versions of Asian fonts fail.

I get an error telling met "This computer is no longer authorized for apps that are installed on iphone ....... Would like to autorize this computer for items purchased from the iTunes Stores..." then it said would you like to authorise. I clicked yes. Then I get a error message. About directory not found or correct permission. I can not even deauthorise and other authorise. I think I have permission problem.
Further issues is that other user's data has been deleted. i had drag and drop itunes folder in order to get back their downloads. The music appears in itunes and historic purhases on itunes. But when you try and re dowmload the later the user has permission. I checked get info on finder but everything appears fine, i need help!!!

Launch the Terminal application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.

General issues w/ safari & itunes - frequent shutdowns & restarts

Any ideas on why safari quits unexpectedly when I'm:
- watching online films (e.g. YouTube)
- downloading things
Also I can't import a CD onto iTunes, nor buy anything on iTunes, again I'm prompted to restart my ibook (get that transparent grey screen that tells me to restart)
I've checked with my ISP and services seem normal.
Any thoughs or help appreciated - thanks

perhaps a space issue?
That's what I was wondering, but, no. As long as you have over 5 GB available, that shouldn't be a problem.
RAM that has failed is one of the most frequent causes of kernel panics. I would suggest removing the extra RAM and see if that eliminates the kernel panics. I'm told that while it takes 256 MB of RAM to install OS X 10.4 (Tiger), once installed it will run on 128 MB. (Of course, it will run slowly.)
If it proves to be the RAM at fault, most RAM vendors have a lifetime warranty. As an alternative, you may want to consider maxing out the RAM with a 512 MB module.

Blue Screens of Death, Explorer.exe issues, General issues

Hey everyone,
So, windows is a very important part of my mac for me. I bought a mac because apple claimed it was compatible with windows. I need it for my programming classes and I need it for certain art programs that are not available for mac. I need it to be stable and not crash every ten minutes, in other words.
I'm on my third install. All three installs have had various issues. This is the second install getting random blue screens and shutting down and restarting. Also, rarer but still occurring occasionally is either my explorer.exe won't boot up or it'll have an error message upon login.
This is a fresh install minus a few small programs, AIM, Photoshop, Illustrator, Open Canvas, Firefox, and Winamp--that's it. No matter how many times I reinstall windows, it just isn't working right on this laptop. I did an apple hardware test and it turned out okay, but I'm wondering if there's something it (and me) is missing. Surely this isn't what apple calls compatible? It's horrible at best. Is this unusual? If I take my mac to a genius, will they just say "Windows *****, it's not our problem" when it's obviously an issue with the mac environment and not windows itself? For a $3000 laptop, right now I'm just totally disappointed and depressed, I'd love some advice. T_T

Sierra Wireless EM7345 ThinkPad 8 and 10 general issues

This was posted as a reply to german forum but it was deleted Symptoms (mobile connection is connected)
1. mobile connection randomly disconnects. It is possible to reconnect again. 2. when resume from Connected standby mode the mobile connection appears to be connected but it is dead. It is not possible to disconnect nor turn off the mobile connection, it is stuck. Windows restart is required to resolve it. 3. when resume from Connected standby mode the EM7345 composite device disappears at all from Device Manager and new unknown device '1 CDC' appears. Windows restart is required to resolve it. Note: Issues 2 and 3 occurs when running on battery only. I don't have any occurence when the tablet was plugged in AC, turned off (into Connected standby mode) and on, yet. I have already tried to reinstall the 1.6.10513.4153 driver, no luck. I have also tried to disable 'USB selective suspend' feature in driver settings and switch off GNSS device (because it has Sierra Wireless driver), no change. I have latest BIOS 1.24 (ThinkPad 8, 64 bit). It is hard to reproduce the case 3 but I have almost reliable steps: 1. uninstall current driver (even it is the latest version)2. restart3. install current 1.6.10513.4153 driver, select Custom Setup, make sure the 'WWAN Logging Tool' is selected, finish the installation4. restart 5. establish mobile connection6. go to Start menu, Intel group, start 'M.2 WWAN Logging Tool'7. press Start Trace button8. turn off the tablet (while the tracing is running) by power button, wait for a minute 9. turn on the tablet(repeat steps 8 and 9 multiple times, in case you can not reproduce it at the first time) EM7345 device disappears with typical unknown 1 CDC device. Yes, it is not a standard operation but it is easily reproducible with the same result. Similar issue is reported in other forum posts for ThinkPad 8 and 10

Old firmware 1.1 that can not be updated to 1.2, read this thread http://forums.lenovo.com/t5/T400-T500-and-newer-T-series/T540p-Sierra-WWAN-EM7345-reliability/m-p/1839271#M106663 The 1.2 firmware might help to resolve the issue (although this post states it actually did not help). Technical details When the USB composite device (EM7345 = WWAN + GNSS) disappears it incorrectly identifies itself as VID = 1519, PID = F000 so Windows can not find proper driver for the device and displays it with (?) icon. If you remove the '1 CDC' device from Device Manager and perform 'Scan for hardware changes' this time it is correctly identified as VID = 1199, PID = A001 and installed (these tasks can be automated using devcon.exe command-line tool, so the fix wouldn't require OS restart everytime it occurs. It is still hack, not a solution). It looks like a firmware bug because the USB composite device and WWAN MBIM device uses Microsoft generic driver. Summary Given the price tag of ThinkPad 8 and 10 tablets, Lenovo should fix that because this is basic functionality failure. Disappearing WWAN device that needs full restart is really serious issue. And again, please diagnose and resolve the issue (hint , hint) instead of "try to reinstall this, try to reinstall that, replace this, replace that" advices. It leads to nowhere because the driver/firmware is buggy as it was in the past with Ericsson device. (copy of the post is stored)

Time Machine general issues!

Hi all!
ok, i tried time machine out and im very disappointed with the experience.
I have a Airport Extreme (newest) and a USB harddrive and running snow leopard.
All versions of everything is the latest.
At first when i start the first backup, it does NOT backup my folders iv´e created on my desktop.
Time Machine-backups is just alias-folders but not the folder with the contents.
The second thing is that it keeps backing up everything i do every minute! It drives me crazy because it slows down my computer. There is no way to set it to do the backup-interval yourself. So i have it turned off now and do backup manually! Not so very smart!

Thanks for the suggestions. My Time Capsule has ALWAYS been slow to me. It barely finishes one backup till it's starting the next and it makes my computer run slower while it is running. That's why I was using the Time Machine Editor to schedule the backups every 5 hours.
From D2 suggestions:
1. Exclude your TM disk/partition from any anti-virus scanning.
I don't think I am using any anti-virus scanning.
2. Exclude it from Spotlight (System Preferences > Spotlight > Privacy).
This could be the problem as I do see it referenced in one of the logs today.
What do I exclude here? The Time Capsule?
I had downloaded the widget this afternoon. I will copy and paste the log here for you.

MS Word Issue ( It's general issue)

Hi All,
I am facing the following problem with MS word.
Normally we attaché graph and code screen shots in the Technical design documnets(TDD). The size of one of the TDD became 33MB and as a result it got corrupted. We are not able to open it. This is rework for us. Here is the error message.
"There is not enough memory or disk space to complete the operation"
for time being we did the following.
If code is too huge, save that code into notepad and attach that notepad in the word document instead of attaching screen shot as .JPEG takes more memory than notepad. There is no alternative for attaching graph screen shot. If anyone has alternative for the same please share.
Thank you,

Dear user!
Well I'm not exactly sure why you're posting your question here. This is a forum all around Oracle products and it has nothing to do with Microsoft Word/Excel/Powerpoint or other MS products. But apart from that I think I can give you a helpful advice. If you have to create documents with a lot of screenshots and more than a hundred pages than you should not use a word processing software like MS Word. Instead of that use LaTeX. I don't know if you ever heard from LaTeX so I'll write a few word about it.
LaTeX is a type setting software that allows you to create huge and professional documents with very complex layouts. It original purpose of LaTeX has been to create mathmatical dissertations with complex equinations formulas. But this system has grown rapidly in the last years and now a days it is capable to do a lot more than type setting equinations formulas.
Concludingly I would advice you to look for MiKeTex (that's LaTeX for Windows) and LyX (that's a graphical console for MikeTex). Both is free for use.
Yours sincerely
Florian W.

SD- general issues

I want to know the basics or meaning of the following terms in SAP terminology / language :
1.Line Items means
2.Archiving means
3.Retro billing
4.Sort key
5.User Exit , Customer Exit
6.Clear Payments, Down Payments
7. Customer Hierarchy
8.Posting key, Account key
9.Schedule line date , Delivery date

Hi there,
From the kind of questions that you ask, it will be evident that you have learnt SAP & you are on job trails.
It is also evident that you have not done your preparation. Looks like you are making a note of questions that will be asked in interviews.
Frankly speaking, this is not the kind of preparation that is expected from you.
Posting threads like this you will make a note of 100 questions. Fine. But what if in the interview they ask a question which is not in your 100 question list? There is every chance that they will ask which is not there in your 100 questions list. You will come back & post it again?
There is lot of material available in SAP library. Pls go to link http://help.sap.com/erp2005_ehp_03/helpdata/EN/80/ea89395eb58c4f9d0c3e837cf0909d/frameset.htm.
Go there & click on Logistics. You will have entire information on SD. One cannot expect to learn SAP SD by posting threads.
Remember that if you practise only then you will become perfect on the system & screens & values in the screens.
Regards,
Sivanand
