Good for beginner?

I've used a PC for years and have edited with Pinnacle Studio 9. I've pretty much mastered it. I'm soon going to buy an Apple powerbook and I plan to purchase Final Cut Express. How difficult will the transition be for me? Has anyone used both Final Cut and Pinnacle?
Thanks

I have used pinnicle briefly right before I used a macintosh.
I tell you when I made the switch! Ohhh boy! I could do soooooo much! The power! The effects! I personally believed it was worth it! So much so I bought final cut studio.
I purchased FCE when I was 15 (im 16 now) and after about 2 days I was able to grasp the basic functions of the program. After fiddling with it more I was able to pull of some really cool effects to wow my video production teacher into allowing me to skip his video 1 class. Personally it is quite user friendly. It may look intimidating, but if you have a good couple of hours and are really interested in learning how to use it, then you will be able to use it like a pro in 2 weeks.
But! I would not go with Final Cut Studio/Final Cut Pro until you learn all about FCE. Once you do that and have the money for it, do it. Just read the manual, and play around with it.
Hope this helps...

    Saging,
    Hmmm.  It seems a bit odd to be creating a 'forecasting-of-material-procurement' tool, when SAP has so many already built in, either within ERP or within APO.  Oh well, I am sure there must be a good reason.
    I have seen from our systems that most loads come from APO going to BI. Is it always that way?
    BI type data can come from any source.  The most common BI solutions I have seen is where BI data are extracted from the main ERP.  However, the beauty of BI is that it doesn't care, SAP builds in functionality to get data from anywhere.
    Are data from ECC considered as well?
    They can be if you design it so.
    You should be aware that most data existing in ERP that are relevant for material planning also usually exist in APO.  The Core Interface between ERP and APO is normally set up to natively replicate substantial quantities of Master data and also transactional data.  It may be that in your business environment, you really don't need to connect to anything other than APO.  However, this is not a limitation of BI, it is just smart programming to try to minimize the number of sources of your data.

  • Free Goods for Materials from the same division

    Hi Friends,
    We are trying to configure free goods based on customer and division in our system. If a customer orders any material belonging to a specific division, he is entitled for a free good.
    For this we created a new condition table based on customer and division and maintained condition records that if he orders 100 qty of any material in Division 10 that he is entitled for 1 qty of material X.
    Now the problem is that at the time of creating the sales order if Material A is entered for qty 50 and Material B is for qty 50 then the system does not give free goods. However, if we enter Materail A for 100 qty it gives the free goods 1 qty of Material X. Similarly, for Mat B with 100 qty it gives Mat X as free goods.
    The system is not adding up the quantities for the multiple line items to calculate the free goods.
    Is there any way by which we can achieve this.
    Regards,
    Abhishek

    Hi,
    So far me too have configured and getting free goods for one material. for your requirement, i think you have to tell your Abaper to do corresponding Enhancement.

  • I am using the Good for Enterprise app to synch my outlook email and when I try to turn on ICloud to synch my music in ITunes I get a warning that I will not be able to synch my Iphone 4S with my computer.  Does this mean my office PC or home Mac?

    I am using Good For Enterprise on my Iphone 4s to connect with my Office PC Outlook email system.  I am having trouble synching my Itunes music from my Mac at home with my IPhone 4s.  I am considering using ICloud to share the music as I also have an IPad2.  When I go to turn on the ICloud application, I get a message that alerts me to the fact I will no longer be able to synch with my computer.  Does that mean with my Office PC and my Outlook email, or my Mac and my home email and other applications?  I want to use the ICloud but don't want to screw up my Good for Enterprise application and connectivity with my Office PC and Outlook email.  What should I do to be able to update all my tunes and photos on my IPhone 4S and IPad2 from my Mac?

    I seem to never tire of saying this. It was for Apple when they first announced 10.7 to disclose this. Yes, it was widely reported -- or rather, rumored -- but not by Apple. And many people who have gotten caught by this assumed that Apple itself would have told them beforehand about the loss of this very important feature which they had come to rely on. As far as I know, not even in fine print, does this appear anywhere on the Lion announcement or any of its links.
    I am not saying Apple had to continue Rosetta in Lion, or forever, just that if it was going to be dropped, it should have been made known.
    As relative "insiders" we should not forget that many people don't have the time, habit or interest to do this kind of research. I think it is a breach of trust that Apple has never directly made this announcement or given people the opportunity to decide beforehand if giving up their PPC apps for a new OS is a worthwhile tradeoff.

  • Edge and Next are good for the corporations but are they good for the consumer?

    Ok so I have never paid full price upfront for a phone!  Ever since my first phone from VoiceStream I have opted for what ever phone was "free" because way back then (I blush as I type) I actually thought the phone was "free!!!" Ah, to be naive again!! But as we all know the phones never were nor will they ever be free. 
    However I say programs like Verizon's Edge and AT&T's Next are good for the corporation if they weren't they would not exist.  The first reason I say this is because Edge and Next allow the cellular service provider to easily recoup the entire cost of the phone in a clear way unlike with subsidized phones that muddy the profit water.  For example, the Verizon 64GB iPhone 5s retails for $849.99, currently with a two year contract you pay $399.99 for that 64GB iPhone 5s.  The EFT for that phone is $350 (minus $10 per month of post paid service).  If you on the 15th the day after you got your phone you paid the EFT but kept service you only paid $749.99 for that $849.99.  Sure you still pay for service but you can leave when ever and Verizon cannot say hey you owe us $100 more for you phone.  Its yours and they can't take it back and the only way Verizon will get that $100 back is though another customer  that subsidized a much lower cost phone that at the completion of that contract Verizon will  more than recoup the cost of that lower priced unit. To top that off you could turn around and sell the phone for $800 go back to Verizon or another provider buy a $450 phone and break even.  I'm not suggesting that people do that or that it may prove to be a big hassle for some that went through all the trouble.  Its just a point to show that subsidized phones make the profits less clear for the service provider to see at first glance.
    Second reason these programs are good for the corporation is they allow the service providers to get a better grasp on the true cost of maintaining their networks and providing us the consumer access to their networks.  Third reason it good for the corporation is the people that feel the need to upgrade every six months to a year are required to pay at least 50% of the retail cost of the phone at the same time they must surrender that device in exchange for the new device.  So the service provider then has the phone refurbished certified to be in "like new condition" and sell it again potentially making more than retail cost when the profits of both sales of the same handset are factored together. 
    That being said what will the impact of programs like Edge and Next have on cost of future cellular service plans and smartphones?  Over time will the service provider give us the best per line access fee (not likely but maybe)? Or will people upgrading their smartphones at faster intervals cause the cost of the smartphones to drop over time? What are your thoughts?

  • I have qualitynet either wired internet. I buy a card good for a month at a time, I can only log into one device at any one time.  Are there settings I can adjust on my airport express to allow all my devices to connect to wi-fi without having to log out.

    I have qualitynet either wired internet. I buy a card good for a month at a time, I can only log into one device at any one time.  Are there settings I can adjust on my airport express to allow all my devices to connect to wi-fi without having to log out of one devise before using another?

    Some Internet providers that limit access to a single device at a time do so by the device's hardware MAC address. If your ISP is one of those, you may be able to substitute the MAC address of your AirPort Express base station for the computer. I would suggest that you contact them to find out if this is allowable.

  • Free Goods for sales order

    There are two sales order type standard(A) and promotion(C) defined in our business.
    when we create standard order it will goods automatically capture the free goods we maintaind.
    However for promotion order, the system shows below message:
    Free goods could not be determined for item 000001
    Document category is not from sales order category (VBTYP <> 'C')
    whether it is unable to use free goods for order type "C"?
    Please advice,
    Many thanks,
    Yang

    Dear Yadav
    There are two order type ZAA1 - standard  ZAA2 - promotion
              two item cateogry ZDC0 - standard  ZDC1 - free of charge.
    I made a test to change the item category assignment as ZAA1 with ZDC1 and ZAA2 with ZDC0.
    Still the free goods can automatically captured with standard order but promotion failed.
    So I think the difinition of item category is no problem and it may related to sales order type.
    My colleague told me it is unable to use free goods for the sales order which SD document category is not "C".
    I try to change the SD document categ from I to C for promotion order and the free goods appear.
    So the result is if i define the SD document category as I that I can't use function of free goods?
    Please advice
    Many thanks,

  • Free Goods for QT order Types

    Can I use automatic Free goods determination for QT order types.
    however i am using it for OR right now and i have done the related configuration for QT as well but system is not detmining Free Goods for QT order types.
    I have also maintained the below entry in "Determine Item Category for Free Goods Item"
    Sa Type   ItCGr         Usg.     HLevelItCa  DfltC
    QT            NORM      FREE     AGN           AGNN

    Hi
    Std SAP itself doesnt support Free Goods at quotation level
    Standard SAP supports Free Goods at quotation level and hence the item categories AFNN and AGNN are provided in the standard SAP. But,  the Automatic determination of Free Goods is not possible for SD documents under category other than 'C'.
    In your scenario...since the automatic determination is not possible, think about handling the functionality manually or through user exits.

  • Multiple free goods for one item in standalone CRM

    Hi Gurus,
    We are trying to implement multiple free goods for one item in standalone CRM.
    As per SAP.help.com, it says that we can configure multiple free goods scenario in standalone CRM system.
    We tried to set up this in our system.  Basically we want to implement the scenario, where a user wants to  purchase item A, he should get a prompt for choosing between two free goods  B and C.
    We did the relevant IMG settings required for Free goods at  IMG ->CRM -> Basic Functions -> Free Goods.-> Set up Free Goods
    We also did the relevant item category determination where we have made an entry with
    Item Usage = " Free Goods" , Main item cat. = "TAN' , Item Category = "TANN".
    Now we went to create condition records in the path  "SAP Menu -> Master Data -> Prices and Conditions -> SAPCND/GCM - Maintain condition"
    We chose Application ="PRT", MaintenanceGrp="PRT_FGOODS", Maintenance context ="GCM"
    Then while creating conditon records , when I try to create two condition records where the Main Product is same but free good product is different, the system is not allowing to save these two condition records.
    it is giving error "Overlapping validity periods for two condition records".
    Please advice, if i am missing something. Thanks in advance for your help.
    thanks,
