GR using Special Movement key

Hi All
I have set up a Special Movement key that receipts in project stock in to a warehouse bin and confirms putaway that we use when processing internal stock transport purchase orders (YUB doc type).
I would like to automate this process so that the special movement key is automatically populated for YUB purchase orders. Currently, we have to manually enter the key per line. I looked to see if there was a PID but no luck.
We receipt approx 300 PO lines a day of the YUB doc type and always follow the process that all goods go in to one warehouse bin which is why I have created the sprecial movement key
Any suggestion would be greatly appreciated
Thanks in advance
Darren

Thanks Florian for the reply
We are currently using the default values as you mentioned but the users are constantly having to remember to change the default value when they are receipting in standard (YNB) purchase orders. We receipt anything up to 800 lines a day from external vendors and approx 300 lines from internal plants.
Previously, they were grouping the YUB docs and processing at the end of the day but this was not giving a true delivery time and our metrics were meaningless.
I was hoping to configure that when a YUB doc is entered in MIGO that the special movement would default to a pre-defined key. When a normal PO (YNB doc) it would revert back.
Thank you for your response but I still have an issue
Regards
Darren

Moving Stock Directly to a Fixed Bin using a Special Movement Indicator

I am trying to set up moving stocks directly to fixed bin using special movement indicator.
Found the below in SAP documentation:
==========
Each time a goods receipt is posted for material ABC, you want to move the material directly to storage bin FIX-ABC in storage type 005 of warehouse number 001 without creating a transfer requirement or transfer order. To do this, you need to set up the system as follows:
1. Create the fixed bin FIX-ABC in storage type 005 that is defined in the standard system using the fixed bin search strategy.
2. Create a special movement indicator for your warehouse number.
3. Add the special movement indicator and the fixed bin FIX-ABC to the material master for material ABC.
4. Create a new WM movement type to move materials directly into fixed bins without creating transfer orders or transfer requirements.
5. In the reference movement type table, create a new entry that links an appropriate IM movement type to the new movement type using the special movement indicator.
==============
I have completed the steps 1 to 4. I am not sure of step 5 in IMG. Can some one please give me the menupath and guide me?
Appreciate your help as always.

Sadanand

Hello,
You can go to LE-WM-interfaces-Inventory management-Define movement types-
a) Assign WM Movement Type References to IM Movement Types - here you can assign your IM mvt to WM mvt
b) then LE-WM Interface to Inventory Management - here you can assign the ref movement type assigned in 1 above to the actual WM movement type you want to carry out and you can assign your special movement indicator here as well.
So this will be
<WH No.> <ref. mvt say 101> <mvt indicator say B ( for PO)> <spl mvt indicator that you have created> <Wm mvt type> <TR creation - X or A > <Immediate To creation X or A >
Thanks,

Cost component Split not transferring while costing using Spec Prc Key

Hi Fellow CO consultants,
I have come across an strange scenario in my work could you help me on it . We are using special procurement key to get the prices between cross company code costing while doing costing run the Materials which have the cost component split from KKPAN (costing without quantity structure ) we find an strange behaviour of update of the costing price .
scenario 1:That is Using KKPAN the FG materials are costed with fixed and variable cost and are marked (future ) but not released in the Production plant . Now while doing the CK40n at warehouse level the Cost component split is correctly picked up the receiver plant using the Spec Prc key properly the fixed and variable cost split .
But
Scenario 2: Using KKPAN the FG materials are costed and then price is released and the material price is at current standard price .Now while doing the CK40N run the cost component split is not picking the variable and fixed contribution its picking up the Total price of the material .( this behavior is observed only in materials done with KKPAN other materials with quantity structure provides the variable and fixed itemization even in the current price of the material ) The prerequsite of the transfer control statergy is set as fist to check the future price for the fiscal year and next the current price of the material if no future price exist. The cost component split and the costing variant are the same .
Appreciate your thoughts .. on helping Scenario 2 case why does the cost component split take the fixed and variable cost while the price of the material is in Current.
regards
GK

Dear Prasad
Try masking costing variant too at assignment to plant and co code.

Ncmpcpp and using odiaeresis as next_column movement key

Hi!
Just started using MPD, and having tried a lot of clients, I ended up settling for ncmpcpp. I have a small problem however. Using i3wm and vim, I have gotten used to controlling any and all movement with keys "o k l ö" (ö is odiaeresis), for up, left, down, right.
But no matter how I try, I cannot get ncmpcpp to allow this in library view. The special scandinavian keys åäö are all displayed correctly, this is the only problem I have ever had with any of them. Using any other key for "next_column" such as 'p' works no problem. I also tried the vimpc client, and there ö works as intended, so it really does seem to be a ncmpcpp-only problem. Does anyone have any tips for solving this?
Thanks alot!

not sure I am totally following but are you saying you are unable to use the no data found error
because you are using an aggregate function?
if that is the case just check for its existence and raise your own error.
declare cnt integer;
begin
select max(1) into cnt from dual where 1 = 0;
dbms_output.put_line('the no data found error was not thrown');
if cnt is null then
RAISE_APPLICATION_ERROR(-20000,'cnt is null');
end if;
exception
when no_data_found then
dbms_output.put_line('no data found');
end;
the no data found error was not thrown
ORA-20000: cnt is null

Hi,
Did you find a way to solve your problem ? We have exactly the same for one application and we are using the same version of HFM : 11.1.2.1.
This problem is only about webforms. We can correctly input data through Data Grids or Client 32.

When I use my Delete key to delete a song, I get a pop-up. This is OK, except the Keep File button is defaulted and I cannot tab or arrow to the "Move to Trash" button, and so i need to use my mouse. How can I do this only with keyboard?

When using iTunes on my iMac, I use my Delete key to delete a song and I get a pop-up. This is OK, except the Keep File button is defaulted and I cannot tab or arrow to the "Move to Trash" (or Cancel) button, and so I need to use my mouse. How can I do this only with keyboard?

Huh.. Interesting. I went back to check these proceedures and found there is a difference between using the return key or the space bar as the action command.
tabbing the blue ring moves the selection and then spacebar takes that action. The return key takes action of only the blue collored button.

The scroll bar on the right is gone the only way I can move the screen up or down is with the arrow keys Why how do i get it back and have it stay there

Yep. For all us spreadsheet geeks, this is a real sinker. Anyway, here's my workaround. Not free, unfortunately. I have a macro program called QuicKeys installed on my Mac that I've used for countless years, and which I highly recommend for other reasons. Anyway, one of QuicKeys' many features is simulating a scroll wheel using the keyboard. I have it simulating a cell-by-cell scroll using cmd-arrow keys. The only drawback is that I have to release the cmd key each time I want to move another cell.

Using the arrow keys to move objects in photoshop issue

When I move objects around in Photoshop using the arrow keys something odd to me happens. When I press the left arrow key it seems to move 2 pixels then when I press the right arrow key it seems like it moves 1 pixel. I noticed this when I had 3 objects. One was centered and I wanted to move both the other objects 20 pixels away. One looked twice as far away. I looked closer and I found out that was the problem. This also happens when using the up and down arrow keys. Is that supposed to happen and is there a way to fix it? Thanks

I can not use the tab key to move to the next field or use the shift and tab to move to the prior field in forms.

After updating to 7.0.1 I can not always use the tab key to move to the next field or use the shift and tab to move to the prior field in forms. This always worked in previous versions and it's much needed for my type of work. Does anyone know of a setting to activate this? If not can the Firefox developers work on this issue (please). I love Firefox but desperately need this feature to work correctly. Thanks!

I tried in safe mode and the tab key worked just fine. I'm not sure about all web forms I've only recently updated to 7.0. The wen form I was using was for appraisal purposes and it has multiple data fields to fill in and also drop down menus to select from. Might I always have to use Firefox in safe mode to be able to utilize the tab between field feature? Thanks for your help!

Use special string as key of DES

I want to use a special string as key of DES.
I f I want to use a string which length is more than 8 as key,what should I do?
Thanks

Although DES has been designed for using keys composed of eight 7-bit ASCII characters with parity (i.e., plain-text passwords), you do not need to use such "weak" keys. Common passwords have almost no "entropy" (i.e., random information); so you must not use passwords directly in any algorithm (DES, AES, RC4 etc.).
Remember - keys are not passwords; keys can be derived from passwords. Cryptographic algorithms usually use keys, not passwords.
The PBE algorithm (Password-Based Encryption) use passwords for encrypting, but do not use the passwords directly. It calculates a special function than derives a key from a password.
Study the PBE algorithm instead of trying to use the password as a key directly.
I will give an example to make you understand the problem better.
There is a class of functions called "cryptographic hashes" that works "digesting" the bytes you pass to it.
They receive any quantity of bytes as input, and return a fixed-size result (160 bits = 20 bytes for SHA-1, 128 bits = 16 bytes for MD5).
Examples of cryptographic hash are the MD5 and SHA-1 functions.
I will give several words that are very near in spelling, but their hashes are completely different.
The SHA-1 of "password" is 5BAA61E4 C9B93F3F 0682250B 6CF8331B 7EE68FD8
The SHA-1 of "passwords" is A267F7DB A707256B 0B664DEE 86AB9AE8 B4941218
The SHA-1 of "passwort" is 2E2B6533 A81BC154 30CF65DE 46DC097E EB5BA70C
The SHA-1 of "Password" is 8BE3C943 B1609FFF BFC51AAD 666D0A04 ADF83C9D
If you modify a byte in the content, the value is completely altered. You can see that the SHA-1 of "password" and "Password" are completely different.
The "naive" way of deriving a key from a password is simply to calculate the SHA-1 of the password, throwing out the unneeded bits (for instance, if you use DES, you can use only the first 8 bytes - 64 bits of the SHA-1 value.)
The PBE algorithm uses a more sofisticated and secure scheme but the inspiration is that you can derive a key from a password, and use the key to encrypt your data.

Using the Alt key and numeric code from Character Map to insert special characters in Office 2010 programs

I am used to using the ALT key and specific numbers for characters from the Character Map to place characters in Office programs like Outlook, Word, Excel. I have a new Lenovo T530 Laptop running the Windows 7 Professional Operating System. I have MS Office
2010 Home and Business. In previous versions of Office, this feature worked first time, every time. On this machine, it is a 'no go' situation. Lenovo tech support says it is a Microsoft issue and Microsoft says it is a Lenovo issue. Either way, I'm having
difficulty resolving the issue and getting this wonderful featrure working for me. Any suggestions and guidance would really be appreciated. Thank you.

Hi,
Haven't been verified this myself, but since this feature require to use the numeric keypad to input the value, I suspect the cause of the issue is the laptop keyboard.
To workaround this issue, try enable the numeric keypad from your laptop keyboard, normally, we can enable it by press
Fn + Num Lock.
After that, try insert characters again.

Key Bindings using the arrow keys

Following is some code that allows you to move a component around the screen using the arrow keys. I've noticed a problem and I'm just wondering if its Java or my keyboard.
Lets start with an example that works:
Press the down and right keys. Then press either the up or left key. The image moves proving that it supports 3 keys.
Now for the problem:
Press the up and left keys. Then press either the down or right key. Three things to notice:
a) the direction doesn't change when the third key is pressed
b) no output is displayed, so the ActionListener is not being invoked
c) after a short time, the program starts beeping
Now try rerunning the code after removing the comments that assign the key bindings to the "a, s, d, f" keys. Redo the above test and it works even if all four keys are pressed.
I don't remember this problem when I wrote the code a while ago, but I did recently get a cheap new keyboard so I'm just wondering if the problem is my keyboard or whether its a quirk with Java.

if you hold down left and right (so it doesn't move), down works, but not up.
hold up/down, right works but not left.Yes, the problem only seems to be when the up and left in combination with the right or down key is pressed.
num lock off - use the number pad arrow keys and all works OK Thats interesting, I didn't notice that. Although it just confuses the issue as to what the problem is.
So it appears to me that:
a) left + up + down, and
b) left + up + right
are special key combinations that are intercepted by either the OS or the JVM. Do these key combinations ring a bell to anybody?
I'm use JDK1.4.2 on XP. I wonder if other OS will have the same problem?
Again, this isn't a real, problem, just more of a curiosity. Thanks,

Obya cross company using special ledger

Hello all,
I´m trying to configure obya, to post a cross company movemente in financila, but using a posting key = special ledger and and the system does not allow, someone can help me??
In one part of the movement I need to post in customer acc with special ledger.
Thanks,
Ana Santos

Hi, thanks for your help. The problem is that I have two situations for the same relation company A and company B.
Example 1 u2013 OBYA
Company A: Debit = 01 customer acc in comp. A / Credit = 50 profit acc u201CXu201D in comp. A
Company B: Debit = 40 cost acc u201CYu201D in comp. B / Credit = 31 in vendor acc in comp. B
When Iu2019m posting, I can start with the debit movement in customer acc (with PK 09 and special ledger) in company A; and credit vendor acc in company B (31 u2013 vendor acc), simulating I will have the automatic movements from OBYA (in bold). With this I have the problem of the special ledger solved in I only have one movement / relation to post.
But the problem is that I need another relation for example 2, and I can only make one entry in OBYA by Relation Company A - B.
Example 2 u2013 OBYA
Company A: Debit = 01 customer acc in comp. A / Credit = 50 profit acc u201CZu201D in comp. A
Company B: Debit = 40 cost acc u201CUu201D in comp. B / Credit = 31 in vendor acc in comp. B
Thanks again,
Ana Santos

Ut2003 special moves

If like me, you're playing UT2003 on your nForce mobo :D you may want to try these special moves )
courtesy of Gameguru:
Quote
Adrenaline Moves (When Adrenaline Is At 100):
BERSERK: Fwd, Fwd, Back, Back
INVISIBILITY: Right, Right, Left, Left
BOOSTER: Back, Back, Back, Back
SPEED: Fwd, Fwd, Fwd, Fwd
Other Special Moves:
DOUBLE JUMP: Jump, then jump again at the top of the first jump
DOUBLE DODGE: Double tap Strafe Left or Right, Forward or Backward
DODGE JUMP: Perform dodge, then jump before you land
WALL JUMP: Run along a wall and jump into it. Press jump and opposite strafe when you hit the wall. (If the wall is to the right, jump + strafe left and vice versa)
LIFT JUMP: When very close to the top of a lift, jump and you receive a great deal more momentum, propelling you a lot further
SHIELD JUMP: Charge up the primary fire mode of the shield gun, look towards the floor and release. After the kickback, jump again to pull off the shield jump
DOUBLE DODGE and DOUBLE JUMP can be particularly useful for climbing rocks and slanted walls that might otherwise seem to steep. Simply try double dodging or double jumping forward as you face upwards against the wall or rocks in front of you. You can double jump to get to high areas and jump over large holes and gaps that might otherwise be too long for a single jump to get past.
For example, in the Bombing Run game, when you deliver the ball into the ring, you must Double Jump in order to reach the ring barrier and get 7 points. You can shoot it into the ring for 3 points if you wish to score lower but not have to respawn
Another tip: if like me you use Inverted mouse, then you may have to reverse some of the special moves to get them to work.
Happy Fragging!

In BEHINDVIEW mode, if you select the "Electric Sniper" weapon, which should be at the far right of the weapons HUD at bottom of the screen, and then click the RIGHT mouse button as you would to zoom in to get a head shot, it will zoom in on your third-person view of your character. This way you can get closer to watch the movements and special effects of the character. It is a pretty slick effect.
How to get the Redeemer (courtesy of Evil Avatar):
Edit the user.ini in the ut2003 system folder and set the following line:
Z=set XWeapons.Rocketlauncher FireModeClass class'XWeapons.RedeemerFire' | set XWeapons.RedeemerFire AmmoClass Class'XWeapons.RocketAmmo'
or to use the Guided Redeemer, use:
Z=set XWeapons.Rocketlauncher FireModeClass class'XWeapons.RedeemerFire' | set XWeapons.RedeemerGuidedFire AmmoClass Class'XWeapons.RocketAmmo'
('Z' being a random key that's not assigned)
After that you can use the rocket launcher to shoot Redeemer ammo, you just have to hit whatever key you assigned it to before using the weapon.
Performance Enhancements
Jason in our comment areas posted two good tips for increasing performance on some systems. I have personally tried them and they work pretty well.
SET SOUND TO SOFTWARE AUDIO - This change in the settings area seems to provide a speed boost over the Hardware EAX option that some people have chosen as their default configuration.
DISABLE REDUCE MOUSE LAG - Edit the UT2003.INI file so that the "reducemouselag = true" statement under the section with the heading "[D3DDrv.D3DRenderDevice]"reads "reducemouselag = false". This one seems to make the game somewhat more "perky" overall.

Error with Links if using x3 primary keys

Hi Folks:
Here is the error code I'm receiving:
ORA-01422: exact fetch returns more than requested number of rows
Unable to fetch row.
Background: I am using Application Express 3.2
All of the pages I have created that rely on x2 primary keys (first_name, last_name) work fine.
I have a table that has x3 primary keys: Table is called "time_off_awards". The x3 primary keys are: last_name, first_name, approval_date.
I created a report that works properly and lists the awards for each person (each person can receive more than one award-on different dates).
I also created an edit link that works properly IF *(only if)* each individual has only one award. If the individual has more than one award then I get the error above. When I set up the link I used all three keys. The x3 PK's should uniquely identify each row, but if the same last name/first name appear more than once (that is if the person has more than one award) I get the error. I thought at first maybe it was just not reading the 3rd key/part of the link (approval_date), but it shows properly if you move your cursor over the edit link.
Here is a link to a screen pic of how I have my link set in Apex:

Here is a link to a pic of the report with some info:
[http://www.wczone.com/report_link.gif]
If needed, here is my table info:
CREATE TABLE PERSONNEL.TIME_OFF_AWARDS (
LAST_NAME VARCHAR2(40) NOT NULL,
FIRST_NAME VARCHAR2(25) NOT NULL,
APPROVAL_DATE DATE NOT NULL,
HOURS_OFF NUMBER(3),
CITATION VARCHAR2(1500),
/* Keys */
PRIMARY KEY (LAST_NAME, FIRST_NAME, APPROVAL_DATE),
/* Foreign keys */
CONSTRAINT TOA_PERSONNEL
FOREIGN KEY (LAST_NAME, FIRST_NAME)
REFERENCES PERSONNEL.MARC_PERSONNEL(LAST_NAME, FIRST_NAME)
TABLESPACE PERSONNEL;
Thanks for any help, I've tried looking at a couple of Apex books, but they didn't help much.

Thank you everyone for the help and information you gave to me.
Your ideas and advice helped me to think through the issues involved.
The way i actually found to work around this issue was a little different.
What I did was the following (which may only be usable with empty tables. If its possible to create a new column with a sequence and trigger on a table that already contains data it should work also):
1. I removed the current PK's that were currently set.
2. I added a single, unique PK (that used a sequence and trigger to automatically increment) to the table as was suggested in this thread and other APEX forum threads.
3. I changed the link on the report so that it used the new PK, and also changed the PK used on the forms (under Processes - both the page rendering and page processing processes).
The Difference:
4. Next I changed the table (not by using APEX, but directly) from using the automatically generated ID as the PK, back to using the compound PK (x3 keys). I then added an constraint to make sure that the automatically generated column was unique. So now I have the compound PK that my supervisor wants us to use, and I'm able to use a unique, automatically generated key for APEX to use.
I found also that if you already have a column that uses a unique/auto-generated key you can still use it with APEX without switching keys around.
1. I added the new column to the sql in the reports source section so that the new column was searched (and then used 'hidden' so it wouldn't be displayed on the report users would see).
2. You can still add the unique key under the processes on the form that is being linked too under the Primary key tabs. If its not a PK it won't show up in the pop up which is to the right of "Item Containing Primary Key Column Value" but it can be entered manually (i.e. p23_AUTO_ID) and it will work fine. You would also need to edit your form so that the auto ID that is being passed from the report is part of the form - but hidden if desired).
