Group item mystery

Hi,
In copying grouped items from my master document to my new document, I use a line similar to the one below.
masterDoc.groups.item(n).duplicate newSection.pages.item(1)
(Where n = to the group item number.)
My question is: What is the logic behind the numbering of these groups? For instance: I could have an item on top of page 3 and it will be groups.item(1) and then an item on top of page 1 that will be groups.item(28)....
Thanks so much for your help.
Jon

I believe the numbering reflects the order in which the groups were created (although there might be an element of back-to-front per layer involved, too).

Discount Groups - Items. How to get the Buy One Get One Free discount in the Marketing Document

Hi Experts,
Can anyone help on this one please?...
Under Stock Management -> Price Lists -> Special Prices -> Discount Groups -> Items -> I have selected a specific BP and then have selected a specific Item Code. I have stated the Paid Qty as '4' and the Free Qty as '1'.
The option 'Do Not Apply Discount Groups' is not ticked on the BP or the Item Master Data.
There are no Special Prices for this Item for the BP. Nor are there any period and volume discounts.
Can anyone think of a reason why in the Sales Order I can never get the discount when putting in '3' in the Qty column on the SO please?
Many thanks,
Caroline

Hi Gordon,
Thanks for your email, and sorry for the confusion!
I believe that when I enter '5' into the sales order the discount should come up as the Paid Qty is '4' and the Free Qty is '1'.
Either way I can never get the discount into the Sales Order...
Can you help please? I was wondering if I had missed a setting somewhere or something...
Thanks,
Caroline

One tray for multiple button group items

THanks
Sany

OK, I'm having trouble again. I need multiple items to drag
to one target. I'm putting all my actionscript in the same frame,
and here's how it looks:
stop();
name_mc.onPress = function():Void {
this.startDrag(true);
name_mc.onRelease = function():Void {
this.stopDrag();
if (eval(this._droptarget) == safe_mc) {
this.swapDepths(this._parent.getNextHighestDepth());
this.removeMovieClip();
address_mc.onPress = function():Void {
this.startDrag(true);
address_mc.onRelease = function():Void {
this.stopDrag();
if (eval(this._droptarget) == safe_mc) {
this.swapDepths(this._parent.getNextHighestDepth());
this.removeMovieClip();
And I'm getting the following error message:
**Error** Scene=Recap, layer=actions, frame=1:Line 21:
Statement block must be terminated by '}'
address_mc.onRelease = function():Void {
**Error** Scene=Recap, layer=actions, frame=1:Line 27: Syntax
error.
Total ActionScript Errors: 2 Reported Errors: 2
Do you know what I'm doing wrong?

WAD: Add variable to a called javascript function on button group item

Hi All,
I need your expertise regarding the following problem:
To increase performance, I've decided to hide all analysis tables. To set these tables to visible, there is a button to switch the state for each table.
Because this function is needed for each table, the function has two parameters for the analysis item name and the new state.
Unfortunately, I get an useless error message after calling the function.
The function in script item looks like
function switchTable(itemName, newState)
The function is started by a button of a button group item as javascript and the following script function
switchTable('ANALYSIS_ITEM_1', 'VISIBLE')
If I enter a without parameters, that will call the function with these parameters, it works.
But if i try this directly from the script function in the button parameters, the function will be called correctly, but an error occurs and the analysis item wasn't displayed or the sendCommand wasn't processed completely.
I hope there is a way to call javascripts by a button with variables, otherwise I would have to create many functions with only an other item_ref.
Many thanks in advance and points of course for any help.
Regards,
Tobias

One short note:
It's possible to trigger the same function by an html input form button with onlick switchTable('ANALYSIS_ITEM_1', 'VISIBLE')
and this works.
Has anyone an idea what's the problem with a normal button item of the button group item?
Another possibility is a menu item. The functions were called, but errors were shown.

How not to suppress printing grouping items

In group by reports, the printing of group items is suppressed until the values change. How can I get the report to not suppress printing the duplicates values?

In the select query , specify the group columns once more with alias names and make its frequncy below the grouped items..
Now your report will work as though you have not grouped it and also will return the group values..
For eg :
Select emp_code,emp_Dept ,emp_name, emp_dept dept_wise_emp
From employee_master
First group is emp_dept
Below level has rest of the columns..
Select the sum /count of the desired columns from the report wizard...

Recursive tables (grouping items)

I have a requirement to allow Users to create groups of items and groups of groups of items( via web interface). [Any item can fall under any number of groups and any group can fall within any number of groups]
I planned to use 2 recursive tables, but I want to see if there are alternative solutions. [This also has to be flexible enough to work with Oracle and mysql]
Also, if anyone has examples for the interface(using jsp), those are greatly appreciated.
Any comments are welcome.
Thanks in advance!

I meant a table that has a foreign key which points to itself, but I would use 1 table (not 2 as I mentioned earlier).
Another way of looking at it using Roles/Users vs. Groups/Item:
(Probably making it muddier, but here it goes)
For Example:
Role Table
role_id parent_id(references role_id)
A          null
B          null
C          A
D          C
D          B [note Group D is child of group C and B]
E          null
RoleUserMap Table
role_id          user_id
A          1
A          2
A          3
B          4
B          5
C          6
C          7
C          8
D          9
D          10
D          11
E          1
E          2
E          3
E          4
E          5
E          11
User Table
user_id          name
1          John
2          Jane
3          Mary
4          Bob
5          Stephanie
6          Bill

Can't apply fills to grouped items

Just switched to MX from 10. Applying fills or strokes to
grouped items was very simple in 10 - now when I try to recolour
groups of objects (or text converted to paths) I'm being
continually frustrated. I add a fill to a group of objects and they
don't change colour, so I have to ungroup them to apply the fill.
Why oh why is it so?

This is good advice, but requires one more step. Uncheck
Preferences>Object>'Changing object changes defaults'.
For some reason, this
preference interferes with the display of attributes of
groups of identical
objects. This is another FHMX pain if you're used to working
with this
preference enabled.
Here's how I super- and sub-select on a Mac/English keyboard.
Modify keyboard shortcuts to
Subselect: F1.
Superselect: tilde key (`) is already hard-coded into FH.
These two keys are close together on the keyboard, so
alternating between
them allows you to dive down or swim up to group level.
If, for example, you have a line of text converted to paths,
with pointer
too, option-click to subselect one path, then hit Tilde to
superselect to
group level, then hit F1 to subselect. You should now see the
fill and
stroke attributes in the object inspector. Change them there.

Group Items - Pick List PLD

Hi Guys,
Is it possible to change the standard 2007A PLD Pick List document so that it can group items together?
For example a pick list is created for 5 orders. In 3 of the orders is the same product, item AAA.
Instead of the standard report grouping the documents so that AAA appears 3 times, is there a way to group items so that it will appear only once?
Thanks,
Liam.

Hi Liam,
Crystal would be easy to get this.
Here's a link to how to do this in PLD (I've tried it - it takes some testing): http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/businessone-elearning
Part 3 - Depencies covers grouping & sorting.
Hope that helps,

IDCS2 Win: How to iterate all items in a group item?

I want to access each item in a page group item, How to do that? Any guide or code snippet will help. Thanks in advance.

you can use InterfacePtr<IHierarchy> hier(group, UseDefaultIID()); <br /><br />and then hier->GetChildCount() & hier->GetChildUID(n) or hier->QueryChild(n) to visit all its direct children. Hier->GetDescendents gets a list of all items in the group (including items in a group that are in the group).<br /><br />Ian

Access Item Group Item of BoM

Hello everyone,
I'm trying to find/create an unambiguous link between the items that appear in a supply to production task and the line item of a Bill of Material (BoM) it's based on. The reason for this is that a customer would like the `line item details text' field that appears below each item in a BoM to appear on the supply to production task form in the same row as the corresponding item. Unfortunately this doesn't seem very simple --- practically all links back to the PBoM business object eventually lead to collections, which don't provide unambiguous links. I can't use material ID as a BoM variant can potentially have multiple versions of the same product but with different base quantities etc., so that's out the window. I found that going through production lot > released execution production model > production segment leads me to be able to grab the BoM/Variant/Item Group IDs fine, but the association that supposedly links to item group item is not set --- my guess is that this association is the one I need. Below is a screenshot of the code I'm using to try and access this --- as you can see, the ProductionBillOfMaterialItemGroupItem association is not set in either case, yet the corresponding association for item group is, and returns the correct item group ID. Anyone able to help/have experience with this? Thanks.
Lewis

Spoke to SAP about this. Whilst there's a 0..1 association from AcitivtyAssignment to ItemGroupItem, it's never set. Which makes me wonder why it's even there in the first place, but never mind.
They suggested going via ItemGroup first. When I did this there was no 0..1 association from ItemGroup to ItemGroupItem, merely a collection of all items in the item group. When I pointed this out, they acknowledged that there is no link. So basically, this isn't possible per se; what I've done to emulate it is a bunch of calculations based on quantity etc., as well as use the ability to manually set the item group ID of a row in a BoM, to ensure I can reliably find the row of a BoM a production task row refers to. I suppose it's case closed on this; if anyone's interested in the code, they can send me a message.

Apply Fill Color to Group Item with Applescript

Is it possible to set the fill color of a group item using applescript and CS3? The group contains paths and text that have the same fill color with no strokes.I am able to select the group and delete it or move it (with applescript) but have had no success in setting the fill color.
Thank you in advance for help on this question. And thanks for everything I have picked up from browsing.

Now that I am addressing the path items and text items of the group separately I am having some success. Now I am having difficulty getting the correct terms for assigning a Spot Color to the file. Here is a piece of the script.
This works:
tell application "Adobe Illustrator"
set openDoc to document 1
set ftClr1 to (first group item whose note is "Front3") of openDoc
set ftClr1Paths to path items of ftClr1
repeat with thisPath in ftClr1Paths
set fill color of thisPath to {red:255}
end repeat
set textFrames to text frames of ftClr1
repeat with thistext in textFrames
set fill color of every line of thistext to {red:255}
end repeat
end tell
Need help to set the fill color to a Spot Color that already exists in Swatches.
Thanks
Nick

PLD: Grouping Item description: Line number is not sequential

Hi All,
I am facing a typical problem.
I have invoice PLD where I am grouping item description and other details like price and tax. Which is working correctly.
However Line number is also getting grouped.
ex line 1(sl No) : xyz (item description)
line 10(Sl No) :abc (item description) where in correct line number should be "line 2"
Please let me know how can we solve this.
Thanks In advance
Regards,
Aditya

Thanks Fasolis,
But I have added a column Linenum() both in repitative area and repitative footer where grouping is done.
the value it retrieves is not sequential since grouping is done. That is the problem, the Field Linenum() gives the output like 1, 15, 55 etc.. based on the starting of line of the item description from transaction which is grouped in PLD.
To be more clear example: there are 2 item codes with same description which is being grouped in PLD.
In transaction,
Line 1: itemcode 01: item name A Quantity: 3
Line 2: Itemcode 02: item name A Quantity: 5
Line 3: Itemcode 03: item name B Quantity: 10
Line 4: Itemcode 04: Item name B Quantity: 15
So in PLD
Line 1: Item name A Quantity 8
Line 3: Item name B Quantity 25
Desired result should be
Line 1: Item name A Quantity :8
Line 2: Item name B Quantity : 25
Regards,
Aditya

Diff between Gen Item Catg Group & Item Cat group In MM01

HI Gurus,
What is the difference between Gen Item Catg Group & Item Cat group In MM01?
Cheers,
Chitty

Hi
There are several posts on same issue you can find out in sdn threads
Item Category determines the processing of any Item/material that we enter in a sales order and in this way it also effects the procesing of any sales doc in which it is used.
Item Category Group is one of the component which along with the Sales Doc Type, The Item Usage and Higher Level Item Category decide about the Item Category in a sales doc.
for example we can ERLA as item cat group and carry out the header level pricing or we can LUMF and do the item level pricing in case of a Sales BOM.
General item category group talks about further classification of a material. Like NLAG- non stock material can be used to identify bom header items, service items.
Item category group and general item category group difference
Re: difference between general item category group /item category group

Difference - set g/l account by warehouse,item group,item level

hi all,
Pl. explain what is difference between setting
g/l accounts by warehouse,item group,item level ?
Jeyakanthan

Hi Jeyakanthan,
Let us consider an example that will make you understand this better. Consider that you are creating GRN's for Item A and Item B. The accounts that get updated are :
1. Inventory Account/Stock account: gets debited
2. Goods Received Not Invoiced Account : Gets Credited.
Now let us consider that Item A has been grouped under the item Group Raw Materials and Item B has been grouped under Item group Finished Goods. Now as mentioned above if you choose the Set G/L accounts by as Item Group in the Accounting tab of the item Group Raw Materials you will have to choose the Inventory/Stock Account as Inventory - Raw Material and for the Item Group Finished Goods the Inventory/Stock account has to be Inventory- Finished Goods. In all cases the Goods Received not Invoicved account will remain the same.When you create the GRN's the respective Inventory accounts will get debited and when you create the A/P Invoice for these the Goods Received Not Invoiced account will get Debited and the Vendor account will get credited.
Now in case if your company manages goods according to the Warehouse i.e. if the company has different warehouses for different types of goods like Raw Material warehouse for Raw Materials , Finished Goods warehouse for Finished goods then you should set the G/L accounts by Warehouse so that in the item master in the inventory Tab the respective warehouse is chosen and the relevant accounts are updated. Just for example when you choose Set G/L accounts by Warehouse for item A then in the accounting tab of the Raw Material Warehouse choose Inventoty - Raw material.
In the 3rd case consider that you are buying a Machine to be used in your workshop which is costing you around Rs. 10,00,000/- and the management wants to know the monthly utilisation costing of the machine like power, labour charges and overheads for that particular machine then it is better to define G/L accounts based on that item i.e. if Item C is a machine for which the Management wants to know the costing details then it would be better off defining a G/L account as Inventory - Item C. This option is better to be used for capital goods or Fixed assets.
For better understanding in the item master you need to initialise thru the Form settings the various G/L accounts like Goods received Not Invoiced accounts, Inventory accounts , Allocation Cost account etc.
Hope this calrifies matters.
Nagesh.
