Help with a database template - Desktop Product Inventory Template

Hello Developers,
I'm trying to develop a database to track purchase orders, supply levels, and supplies issued (with reports). I've been working with the MS Access template called "Desktop Product Inventory", but it has more functionality than I need (i.e. shipping,
sales, invoicing). This template is almost exactly what I'm looking for.
I've tried removing the fields I don't need, but I encounter errors everytime. Frustrated, I created a new database by studying and copying the format of the template. I have the general structure of the database setup with tabs, but I'm completly lost when
it comes to formatting/coding the database. I'm not sure what needs to be done in order to recreate the functionality from the original template.
Unfortunately, I must admit that Access is my least favorite and used MS application.
So, my questions are:
1.) Does anyone know of an "effective" way to edit the Desktop Product Inventory template and maintain functionality?
OR
2.) Would someone mind taking a look at my database and giving me feedback? It's essentially just the layout and what I want the database to show.
Any and all help is appreciated, thanks for reading!

The Microsoft template apps have a lot in them - which is why they are particularly difficult to modify by the novice - so don't feel bad.
A database that does Inventory, shipping, sales, invoicing - is going to be complicated inherently, and is really a matter of development familiarity and experience.

PHP Help with inherited database site

Hope someone can help with this, although I might be a bit vague. (But will be happy to post any code that might help.)
Basically I do a few sites for a company, and everything is coming together nicely moving everything to a new reseller hosting account where everything can site. I'm basically doing some redesign and new database work for them.
But there's one site I'm basically just trying to move over, that already has a database. I've copied the site onto the new hosting, copied the database across and created a new connection file.
I must admit the code is all a bit more PHPO heavy than what I'm used to working with. so have run into a problem trying to figure out what data is not displaying due to queries failing. As far as I can tell the connection is working, and the queries have not changed.
Anyway - the main page is here, where you should be able to click on the furniture images to go to the product page :
http://www.miradatravelmedia.com/lusty/public_html/index.php
But when you click through the product page query is failing :
http://www.miradatravelmedia.com/lusty/public_html/products.php?category=1
The products page is mostly PHP and looks like this :
[PHP]<?php
if (!@empty($_REQUEST["img"])) {
require_once("../includes/hft_image.php");
$img = new hft_image($_REQUEST["img"]);
$img->resize(200,180,"-");
$img->output_resized("");
exit;
$page = "products";
include("../includes/header.php");
include("../includes/db_open.php");
$sql = "SELECT `id`, `name` FROM `categories` WHERE `id` = '" . $_REQUEST["category"] . "'";
$result = mysql_query($sql) or die("Query failed : $sql at line " . __line__);
$category = mysql_fetch_assoc($result);
?>
<div id="trail"><a href="shop.php">Shop</a> > Lloyd Loom <?php echo $category["name"]?></div>
<div class="clear" id="divider1"><img src="images/spacer.gif" alt="<?php echo keyword()?>" /></div>
<h1>Lloyd Loom <?php echo $category["name"]?></h1>
<?php
$sql =
"SELECT * " .
"FROM `products` " .
"WHERE `category` = '" . $_REQUEST["category"] . "' " .
"ORDER BY `order`";
$result = mysql_query($sql) or die("Query failed : $sql at line " . __line__);
if (mysql_num_rows($result) == 0) {
?>
<p>Coming soon ...</p>
<?php
} else {
$n = 0;
while ($row = mysql_fetch_assoc($result)) {
    $n++;
?>
<a href="product.php?id=<?php echo $row["id"]?>" class="product"<?php if ($n == mysql_num_rows($result)) echo " id=\"last\""?>>
<?php
    if ($file = glob("images/products/" . $row["id"] . "_*.*")) {
?>
<img src="img.php?img=<?php echo $file[0]?>&width=200&height=180" alt="<?php echo $row["code"]?>" />
<?php
    } else {
?>
<div id="no_image">No image found</div>
<?php
?>
<?php echo $row["code"]?>
</a>
<?php
    if (is_int($n / 4)) {
?>
<div class="clear"><img src="images/spacer.gif" alt="<?php echo keyword()?>" /></div>
<?php
?>
<div class="clear" id="divider2"><img src="images/spacer.gif" alt="<?php echo keyword()?>" /></div>
<?php
include("../includes/footer.php");
?>[/PHP]
If anyone could shed any light on what's going wrong still, that would be much appreciated.
Thanks.

You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near ''categories' WHERE 'id' = '1'' at line 1
So it does look a bit odd with the quotes.
Column names in a SQL query must not be in quotes. The MySQL error message tells you that the SQL syntax error is "near" the section it refers to. In other words, the error is just before that part of the query. Normally, you need to display the whole query to spot the error, but it's obvious in this particular case, because there's a quotation mark after categories, indicating that you've put the column name in quotes. Anyway, you've solved that problem by using the version I suggested.
I still haven't managed to establish where this vat.php file is - is there any explanation for it not being visible on the original hosting server where the site is working? And could it have anything to do with the query not working?
No, it has nothing to do with the query not working, and the reason you can't see it on the live site is because there's no error. The error message on your test site tells you exactly where to look for the problem. The file vat.php is included by header.php on line 19. Either vat.php isn't on your server, or the code on line 19 of header.php is pointing to the wrong location.

Help with Infomaker tool for editing Contract Manager Template

I am new to Primavera Contract Manager (11i) and has been assigned with a task of editing one Submittals template on the system as the person who was handling it left the company.
On doing some research I found out that it is done through the Infomaker tool and I was able to do so the test server.
But on the live server, whenever I try to open the same template using Infomaker, it will ask to select the database, once we select the database which is Oracle 10 G express, it quits even without showing any error message.
I tried creating a new user on Oracle to make sure it is not because of wrong user name and password, but what ever details we give, infomaker just quits when tried to connect to any database.
Can you kindly help me to trace out the issue?

Hi Suhas,
The rule used in workflow template WS50100021 is a standard one. So try to find out that on what basis it is fetching the agents. It could be the case that the logic specified in the rule does not fulfill your requirement.
The other reason could be that you have not specified the task as general. Please check if the agents tab is activated(green) in the task or not. If it is not you need to set the task as general.
SOLUTION : if you want to get the workitem in your own SAP Inbox for testing purpose, you can set the WFINITIATOR as agent instead of that standard rule. This setting will send the workitem in your own SAP Inbox.

Guddan

HELP with Problem creating a page from a template Suggestions PLS.

Nadia was kind enough to give me step by step in creating a template the right way.
Problem is why won't it work?
1) I create a page exactily like I want the templete to look.
2) I save the child page as a template.
3) I go to FILE>NEW>Page from template, look at the template on the insert on the right and it is just as I would expect it to be. The update is checked on change. I say ok and what appears on screen is I have lost all my formatting. When I look at the code, creating a page from the template causes the process to change the location of (for instance) the background image gif file from ...images/background.gif to the full location name starting the string at the C:/ all the way to ...background.gif. Therefore, the created page from the template loses all of its formatting.
How do I fix this problem????

Okay, here I go again with this problem step by step.
1) Created a basic page that has a header, body and footer: www.goodimage.com and saved it as maintemp.html .
2) I saved maintemp.html in the normal place where all the html are stored because as I was creating the template it told me I needed to save the page I was working on. So I decided to store it as an html until as it was layed out. Then I went to FILE/SAVE AS TEMPLATE storing it as maintemp.dwt.
3) Then I created an edItable area called BODY.
4) Then I did a FILE/SAVE AS TEMPLATE or tried to. As part of this process it wants to know if I want to UPDATE LINKS. If I do then the links will reference the template folder (but it is the DW default - hmmm what do I do) When in doubt take the default. So I did.
5) So now I have a nice looking template called maintemp.dwt with one editablel region. So I feel pretty good until I suspect the next problem I have been fighting all along will appear. I select FILE/NEW PAGE FROM TEMPLATE and I see goodimage site, and my template called maintemp and a nice picture of it on the right screen part. Also update page when template changes is checked. Then I select to do the action.
6) Upcomes an unformatted screen caused by the links not being correct. I save the page as index.html to see if it will correct itself. I does not correct itself. So the index.html page is not formatted even after I closed down DW to see if that would help. It didn't. So I could go in and manually update the page but what a mess that would be.
7) So I will go back to create a page from the maintemp.html with the UPDATE LINKS turned off. Using maintemp.html to create a template just like in step 2). When UPDATE LINKS is not selected then the template falls apart and is unusable.
I HAVE WASTE ABOUT THREE DAYS ON THIS ONE PROBLEM AND I HAVE BUT A FEW MORE HOURS TO GET IT DONE. ONCE THIS WORKS IT WILL GO FAST. I AM TIRED OF BEING TIRED BUT MAYBE THAT IS CAUSING MY PROBLEM. ANYWAY, PLEASE HELP AS I AM AT A LOSE.

Need Help with Zen for Servers 7.0 Inventory & Policies

I have Zen 7.0 for Servers installed on NW 6.5 box. I have installed the
Inventory agents on another 6.5 box. The Inventory database indicates it
is empty. I am not sure where to begin to troubleshoot this. I am sure
I am missing something.....but what....is the question.
Are there any documents out there that lists steps to troubleshoot this?
I also get a message on the server with the Inv database that the
dictionary files are setup to be updated by itself. How do I keep that
message from happening. I thought I needed to place the ip address of
the server that will be providing dictionary updates in the field which
is what I did but, it causes the above message.
Thanks in advance,
TJ

Help with iTunes database and Time Machine after Lion clean install

I did a clean install of OS X Lion and think I've given myself problems with my Snow Leopard Time Machine backup and with my iTunes Library database files.
My iMac (2007) had become very sluggish so I opted for a clean install. Before the install of Lion my Snow Leopard 10.6.8 internal 1TB HD was at about 600GBs. I was using Time Machine to backup to an external 1TB drive. I had my iTunes 10.? library on the same drive.
For the Lion install I partitioned my internal 1TB HD into two partitions - a 250GB Lion boot partition and the rest for Lion data files.
Now I have two problems - 1. I can't work out how to re-connect my Time Machine backups, since they were related to a much bigger original drive, and 2. I can't seem to find my iTunes database files.
I also don't want to restore any application files at this stage, as I'm determined to do a fresh install of only the applications I need as I go along, and hopefully avoid the issues of sluggishness I had with Snow Leopard.
I have all my iTunes files in their pre-Lion external HD folder, but that folder does not seem to have the iTunes Library.XML or iTunes Library files. I didn't delete them so I'm hoping they were in my iTunes folder on my SL boot drive. But that drive was deleted during the install, so I'll be depending on Time Machine to restore the database.
Can anyone suggest a way to deal with Time Machine for my Lion install, and a way to restore my iTunes database? I'd like to keep as much of the Snow Leopard Time Machine data as I can, while continuing to do Time Machine backups from my Lion installation.
Anyone know where iTunes stores those database files, if not in the external drive iTunes folder? Spotlight search doesn't find the files, but is there a way to search my old Time Machine backups without having the Time Machine backups folder re-connected in Lion?
Thanks.

My iTunes folder is organised like this if it helps:
And iTunes uses them from the Prefrences like this:

Help with a database view/table

Hi,
I have seperate oracle9i database on one machine (UNIX).
Myview view has poor performance in dbtest, but it has good performance in dbdev.
Both DBs are having relatively similar configuration.
When I set the autotrace on I realized the indexes are in place on both databases.
But it takes 2 times more to query dbtest than dbdev.
Here is the difference when I query both views and the autotrace is on:
SELECT id from Myview; on DBTEST:
Statistics
105 recursive calls
0 db block gets
83147 consistent gets
456 physical reads
0 redo size
2777 bytes sent via SQL*Net to client
400 bytes received via SQL*Net from client
10 SQL*Net roundtrips to/from client
4 sorts (memory)
0 sorts (disk)
122 rows processed
SELECT id from Myview; on DBDEV:
Statistics
105 recursive calls
0 db block gets
42537 consistent gets
267 physical reads
0 redo size
3601 bytes sent via SQL*Net to client
414 bytes received via SQL*Net from client
12 SQL*Net roundtrips to/from client
4 sorts (memory)
0 sorts (disk)
157 rows processed
How can I identify where the problem is? Why "consistent gets" and "physical reads" parameters are about 2 times in DBTEST. I believe this is why I have poor performance in DBTEST.
Could someone give me a clue on how to idetify the issue?
Thanks

Help with AVI files on Desktop!!

I have two AVI files on the desktop that I want to put into imoive to edit them, but imovie won't import them. I tried by going to the import movie under file but they are both grayed out. THen I tried to rename them, but still they were grayed out. Please someone help!!!

I have two AVI files on the desktop that I want to put into imoive to edit them, but imovie won't import them.
iMovie '08 will only import files which it can edit. If audio and/or video compression format is not editable, then it will not import. For instance, many AVI files use DVI ADPCM compressed audio with M-JPEG video. In this case the audio is not compatible but the video is so the file will not import. In such a case you would have two options. The first is to change the audio, keep the video an import the modified file. The easier option would be to use a conversion application like QT Pro ($30), GarageBand (included in iLife), MPEG Streamclip (free), FFmpegX (donation-ware), Visual Hb (pay-ware) or a similar application to convert both audio and video to iMovie '08 compatible files for import. In most cases, even iMovie HD (free download for iLife users) will convert AVI files as part of the import process.

Help getting help with iTunes (or, the elusive product registration number)

My almost brand-new iPOD classic is now useless because iTunes no longer works on my Vista 64. It was fine for a while. Now, when my computer starts up, I get an error message that reads:
iTunes was not installed correctly. Please reinstall iTunes Error 7 (Windows error 14003).
I tried all the obvious stuff, and then decided, what the heck, I'm a paying customer, I'll get some online help for Apple. But much to my frustration and rage, I can't get any help without my product registration number. I can't read the microscopic number on the back of my iPod, and because i can't open iTunes, I can't find my registration number that way. Do you know, you can't even call Apple without the product registration number? So I can't get any help. I'm so frustrated. I got my iPod on Airmiles, so I don't even have a bill.
Is there any other way to find my registration number?

hi dan,
i am using iWeb for a non .Mac account! the reason behind is that external hosters offer better online space and loading times than .Mac. Yet on the other hand, the iDisk, Web-Mail, Addressbook and iCal features that are offered with .Mac make the 99€ a year quite worthy!
i myself do not use .mac because my website is simply to large and the prices are not accepteable that .Mac offers for more space!
the next thing is that your .Mac account username will be in you URL and you cannot stay anonymous! your address will be something like this:
http://web.mac.com/USERNAME
so now you will share your username with the whole wide world! the other thing is that iWeb was designed to work hand in hand with .Mac. This means that some cool feature fall off when you publish externally, meaning to a different host, eg.: 1and1, godaddy, strato. These features include Slideshows, Password-Protection, Blod-Search and other small things!
yet when you still choose to go for .Mac - no one will get your address unless you tell them what the address is! it is extremely hard to find, if not impossible, your .mac address under Google or Yahoo! So your username is somewhat protected!
Here are some good hosters:
http://godaddy.com

you practically have to also see for your country what hosters offer. 1and1 is extremely cheap and is over the world! Yet when you choose to have a external host - then you have to pay extra and if you close your .Mac account you cannot buy music in the itunes store!
here is a very good FTP program to upload your files to a different host:

Need help with enhanced data source in Production system

Hello Gurus,
1. I enhanced a datasource in BW and populated the field using customer exit using CMOD function. In Dev system, i dont have much data, so I deleted the whole data and did full load.
what shud I do in Production side, so that Delta wudnt be affected??since in production, we have millions of records, we wont do full load., what is the best way to populate the field in production after transporting the datasource to production without disturbing delta's, to reflect the new field for previous years data???
2. can we put 0customer and 0material in the same dimension?? how its going to affect the performance?
Thanks in advance.,
Best Regards,
Pavan

Hi,
Please see this
1.
see this thread
populated the new field with historic data
2. can we put 0customer and 0material in the same dimension?? how its going to affect the performance?
Its better not to use them in a single dimension because one customer and take more than one material so if you have 100 customer and 1000 materials this combination will generate a large number of records. Its always better to keep characteristic which are having 1:N relation ship in one dimensional in you case customer and material will have an M:N type of relationship.which will result in slow performance.

Ravi

hi
i've got this code(below ) ,but i don't get any anything at all, so can u have alook at it, please
<code>
tableData = new Vector();
Vector titles = new Vector();
int currentRow = 0;
try
Class.forName("com.microsoft.jdbc.sqlserver.SQLServerDriver"); // load the driver
conn = DriverManager.getConnection ("jdbc:microsoft:sqlserver://213.107.6.45;user=foo;password=foobar");
// connect to SQL server
conn.setCatalog("Northwind");
// choose the database
Statement stmt = conn.createStatement();
// create an SQL statement
String query = "SELECT * FROM Products;";
table = stmt.executeQuery(query);
ResultSetMetaData md = table.getMetaData();
// get the meta data
final int numberOfColumns = md.getColumnCount();
// Vector columnNames = new Vector();
// for(int i = 0; i < numberOfColumns; i++)
// columnNames.add(md.getColumnName(i+1)); //indexed from 1, not 0
// Iterator it = columnNames.iterator();
// int i = 30;
if(table.next())
//rowData(table.getObject(1).toString());
//jTextFieldField2.setText(table.getObject(2).toString());
Vector rowVector = new Vector();
for (int currentCol = 1; currentCol < numCols; currentCol++)
Object obj = table.getObject(currentCol);
rowVector.addElement(obj);
//rowVector.add(table.getString (currentCol + 1));
tableData.addAll(rowVector);
//tableData.addElement(rowVector);
//currentRow++;
for (int currentCol=1; currentCol<= numCols ; currentCol++)
titles.addElement(md.getColumnLabel(currentCol));
// Close connection to database
stmt.close();
conn.close();
}//end try
catch (Exception ex)
JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(null, ex.getMessage());
}// end catch
JTable table = new JTable(tableData,titles);
JScrollPane scrollpane = new JScrollPane(table);
this.getContentPane().add(scrollpane);
</code>
Thanks in advance

Sorry i long time didn't do java coding alr , so not sure how rite i am
but in order to pass Vector into the constructor.
it had to be Vector of Vector
i.e:
Vector fieldLabel = new Vector
Vector row = new Vector();
Vector data = new Vector();
//using metadata to get the fieldname
while(rs.next()){
data.add(rs.getString("userid"));
data.add(rs.getString("subject"));
row.add(data);
JTable resultTable = new JTable(data,fieldLabel);
Not sure how useful is this..
