Help with SD scenario

Hello,
I have configured a SD intercompany scenario (process flow OR>LF > F2 > IV) where the goods are supplied from the manufacturing plant to the customer.
However, the user wants to be able to run the scenario where the goods are delivered from the manufacturing plant to the receiving plant and then from this to the customer.
Ex:
1. Sales organization 0001 receives a sales order X from customer XYZ.
2. Item 10 should be manufactured in a plant 0002 of different company (make-to-order production).
3. The manufacturing plant 0002 delivers the item to sales organization 0001 (plant 0001).
4. The item of sales order X is delivered to customer XYZ from plant 0001.
In normal intercompany, the item is delivered from plant 0002 directly to the customer.
Please, any idea how to implement this scenario in SAP?
Thanks a lot in advance!

Hi Mr.Nieves,
It can be set up but there are many ways. Can you please tell me the following:
1. What kind of postings and blocks are required at plant 0001?
2. Should the process be automated?
3. What is the purpose behind all this? is it relevant for recording alone?
4. Plant 0002 is with the same sales organization and company code?
All these questions are relevant to me only if you want to consider options other than STO that Senoir Barco mentioned.
Thanks and regards
Vijay

Please help with subcontracting scenario............

Hi All,
Can anyone please help me in dealing with subcontracting scenario with scrap taken into account. Please provide the screen shots from BOm creatio to challan closing. the requirement is urgent. please help me. all replies will be suitablly rewarded.

Sub Contracting Cycle
(1) You have a material that can be procured externally, and you have maintained BOM with components. Any waste generated and received during subcontracting process can be maintained as component with negative quantity.
(2) You create a subcontracting PO (PO with Item Category L). You can also maintain Purchase Info Record for Subcontract category for material and subcontractor.
(3) You make a transfer posting to issue components for SC PO. Material is sent to subcontractor. As material remains under your ownership, system does not make any value entry. But quantity is shown as "Material Provided to Vendor"
(4) You receive finished material against SC-PO. You also specify components consumed in manufacturing of finished goods. Additionally, if you have negative components in BOM, now you'll also receive subcontracting by-products. There are three events, so three accounting entries are generated:
DR FG Stock/ SC By-Product Stock
CR Change in Stock (FG/ SC By-Product )
(for finished goods received)
DR Subcontracting Charges
CR GR/IR Clg
(for moneys payable to Subcontractor)
DR Consumption (Components)
CR Change in Stock (FG/ SC By-Product )
(material provided to Vendor is now charged to expense)
(5) You do the IV for SC Invoice, and the process is complete.
Process of Subcontract in MM
Sub-contract business process:
You want to buy material from the supplier (processed material/ assembled item) , but for some reason (quality of certain item / price ) you will give some component to vendor .
Vendor shall process the item / use the item provided & supply the final item.
SAP process:
1.Create the finished goods material code.
2.Maintain the BOM for the material.
3.Create PO with item category as "L" .
4.Issue material to vendor with movement type 541
5.Receive the material against the PO with movement type 101.
6.MIRO to account for vendor's invoice for the service charge& material used by him.
Can anybody tell me how a process has to be given to subcontracting?
Suppose, I have 3 operations 1)weaving 2)dyeing 3)cutting & packing
if no 2 process (i.e Dyeing) has to be given to subcontracting, what process should i follow ?
The following process to be followed for subcontracting.
1. Item code(material master) to be created at the stage of before dyeing.
2. Item code(material master) to be created after Dyeing as subcontracted item.(F30)
3. Bill of material to becreated for the material(2) calling for material(1)
4. Inforecord and source list to be created for material(2) with the corresponding vendor
5. PO to be released for material (2)
6.Along with PO the material(1) to be issued to vendor
7.On receipt of material when GR is made the stock with vendor will get updated.
How to Create a Subcontract Order?
To create a subcontract order, proceed as follows:
Enter the material you want to order and the item category for subcontracting (L) in the order item.
Press ENTER to display the screen for component processing.
Enter the components that the vendor requires to manufacture the product.
Please note:
You do not need to enter the date required for the components. This date is proposed by the system when you press ENTER.
It is calculated as follows:
Delivery date of the item - Planned delivery time
If you do not want the quantity of the components to be changed if the order quantity of the end product is altered, set the indicator Fixed quantity (column F).
You can determine whether the components are available on the date required by selecting Edit -> Availability check.
If you entered a bill of material as the material in the subcontract order, the components are created automatically.
If you want to determine the components in the bill of material at a later date (for example, if the bill of material is subsequently changed), choose Item -> Component -> New BOM explosion. The existing components are deleted and redetermined in the bill of material.
Save the purchase order.
When you print the purchase order, the components are printed per order item
Subcontracting - Key Points
Special Procurement Process.
Item category: L
Order type: NB
In info record vendor should be maintained as subcontractor.
Vendor (Subcontractor) receives the components used to manufacture a finished product directly from your company or through third party.
Your company should place a purchase order for the finished product. In this manually you can enter the required individual components or it can be determined via the explosion of BOM (if exists).
Stock check at vendor level: ME2O
Company stock check: MMBE
GR for individual components through movement type: 501 or 561 (if with out PO or without reference).
GI to subcontracting vendor: through movement type 541.
GR from sub contracting vendor: through movement type: 101
Movement type 543 is displayed to cancel the material cost account.
If the subcontracting order has to be generated through materials planning,the special procurement key has to be set in MRP 2 screen.
- To create the Subcon Info Record : Tcode ME11 - Info Category - Click Subcontracting
- To create Material BOM : Tcode CS01
- With the Info and Material Setup, you can then create the Purchase Order in Tcode ME21N
Hope this is helpful.

Help with Security Scenario

Hi, I have a security scenario I am hoping someone can me help with.
Right now a user is authorized to "Sales Office" 100 only.
In the below scenario I need the user to be able to:
1. See Transactions where the "Sales Office" is 100
2. See Transactions where the "Sales Office of the Ship-To" is 100 even if they don't have access to "Sales Office" value.
So if the "Sales Office" is not 100, but the "Sales Office of the Ship-To" is 100 then they should see that as well.
Access
Sales Office
Sales Office of Ship-To

Help with a scenario

Hi all,
Scenario :
Data warehouse environment
Source DB is upgrading to Oracle 10g AL32UTF8
Data warehouse DB for now is Oracle 9i UTF8 ( i know should upgrade , that is in the works though till then have to continue on this platform )
ETL via Informatica on the ODBC connection will define codepage as UTf8 with Unicode data movement configured.
What i am grappling with is
In theory AL32UTF8 manages supplementary characters differently as compared to UTF8 so would there be a situation of data corruption when i load into the warehouse.
Has anyone come across such a scenario ,
what testing strategy was used to confirm / deny data corruption questions
Appreciate all pointers , Thanks in advance.
Regards,
--Amol

Thank you for the feedback .I will followup with Informatica . Shall let you know their response as soon as i have something concrete.

HELP WITH UPADTE SCENARIO

Hi All,
I have a small update scenario on which i need advice.
It is as follows:-
Suppose I have a table
      A              B                C
    1            2                  8
    2            5                 10
    3            6                 11 Here A is column like rownumber while B & C are with random numbers.
What i want to do is update column C with values of column B and set column B to 0
Like:-
      A              B                C
    1            0                 2
    2            0                 5
    3            0                 6 Can it be done in one update query like
     UPDATE <TABLE-NAME>
       SET C = B,
       B = 0 or is there a chance oracle change the update order and first set B = 0 and wrongly update values of C with 0 ?
Please advice.
Also i would like to know if whatever soultion is provided works the same for a small set of rows say 10-15 as compared to bulk updates of lakhs of rows?
Thanks in Advance.

Can it be done in one update query like
UPDATE <TABLE-NAME>
SET C = B,
B = 0 or is there a chance oracle change the update order and first set B = 0 and wrongly update values of C with 0 ?
Please advice.If oracle does that then it would be out of market by now. Its time to read about [url http://docs.oracle.com/cd/B19306_01/server.102/b14220/consist.htm] 13 Data Concurrency and Consistency

Need help with this scenario....

Hi, here I want the out amount to be calculated with the variable ranges..
I attached the report output.
I took doc.no and doc.date in column,
restricted doc.date with current day ( date changed to 05.05.2006)
2 variables as manual entry, 2 variables as customer exit.
with those manual entry variables i calculated different dates for 2 customer exit variables using ABAP
everything is going fine till here.
when i drag amount in a selection n restrict it with range of customer exit variables in doc.date
the output does not shows the value for the range
its just show the output for the particular date
dates
05.05.2006
05.04.2006
i want the output to show the total sum of amount for 30 days (or the no. which user enters)

Hi Praveen,
i hope this is what your requirement(sample output as below):-
Customer
Amount(01.05.2006 - 05.05.2006)
Amount(06.05.2006 - 10.05.2006)
C1
$100
$500
C2
$200
$700
if so, can we do this way: on KF1, restrict the document date with user input variable 1
and KF2 with user input variable 2.
if user enters first user input variable as 01.05.2006 - 05.05.2006
and the same way for the second one. in that case, no need of further logic to determine the variable ranges.
Let us know if this works?
Regards,
Sakthi.

Auto Loading on FDM - Need help with this scenario

Okay, I just waNt to know if there is a better way to load data from FDM to HFM.
We have txt files containing data for every month. For example, there 12 files for year 2007 (1 file per month) for one country and similarly we have data arranged in this manner for every country.
Now, what we are doing is that we are taking every file (every month) and loading it one after the other doing the FDM process of import, validate, export and check. This process is taking too long because we have to load monthly data for every year AND for every country. Too many files to load.
Now, how can batch loading solve this problem. Where is the script written on FDM to do this process. Currently, the files for importing (monthly files) are NOT located in Inbox but a different directory. Would copying all these files into Inbox make it any better?
This could save our company enormous amount of time loading and so I would certainly appreciate a better work around?
There must be a way by which these loading of every file can be automated. Let me know. I have no idea about the script that is used but is the script present on the FDM admin manual for batch loading what we have to copy paste? Thanks.
-- Adi

Adi,
This is why I originally stated that more advanced scripting might be needed.
If there is an error, it stops at the error. You can then either manually run a report or check the fish status inside of the FDM web interface. If you wanted something to automatically be done when an error is encounted, the more advance scripting is required.
As for the invalid map, it would stop just as it would from the web interface. The BatchLoader assumes you have all your information correct and that loads will be sucessfull.
There is a feature called 'AutoMapCorrect' that is explained in the Admin doc as well. It is used to push all non-mapped data to a particular value. You then would need more advanced scripting to either let you know it automapped values, or run batch reports manually. Then you would need to correct the 'pushed' mapping to actual values and reload the data (import, validated, export, check)
Thank you.

HELP for all 5 TYPES of STO Stock Transport Orders with detailed scenario

PLEASE help me understanding the detailed scenarios for all 5 TYPES of STO s
as in my day to day job activities , i frequently handles issues related to STO s
PLEASE HELP WITH DETAILED STEP BY STEP SCENARIOS

Hi Jagatram,
Standard SAP has the following methods For Stock transport order:
1) One Step Transfer stock without using purchasing documents; Use movement type 301.
2) Two Step Transfer stock without using purchasing documents; Use movement type 303 in Supplying plant and movement type 305 in receiving plant.
3) Using Standard Transport Order (STO) without delivery in two steps. STO created in T-Code ME27, receiving plant posts goods issue (for returns), movement type 351 and supplying plant post goods receipt from using movement type 101.
4) Using Standard Transport Order (STO) with delivery in one step. STO created in T-Code ME27, Receiving plant creates shipment and Goods issue document (for materials to be returned) with movement type 647 and goods receipt document with movement type 101 both created in one step.
5) Using Standard Transport Order (STO) with delivery in two steps. STO created in T-Code ME27, Receiving plant creates shipment and Goods issue posted (for materials to be returned) with movement type 641.Goods receipt is posted in the supplying plant, movement type 101.
6) Using Transportation scheduling agreement (TSA) with delivery in two steps. TSA created in T-Code ME37. Receiving plant creates shipment and Goods issue document (for materials to be returned) with movement type 641. Goods receipt is posted in the supplying plant, movement type 101.
To achieve it, necessary configurations has to be done in Tcode- OMGN.
SPRO>> Materials management>> Purchasing>> Purchase Order>> Set up Stock transport Order:
1. Plant: For the receiving plant, maintain customer No-Plant (If using STO with delivery), for the Sales Org, Dist channel and Division.
2. Checking Rule: Create checking rule.
3. Define checking rule : Usually no change required here.
4. Assign delivery type/checking rule: Assign the document type(UB) - Supplying plant- Delivery type(NL).
5. Purchasing document type: Maintain the supplying plant- Receiving plant relationships for the doc type-UB, either 1-step or 2-step, as per business.
Hope this helps!

Is there a Java utility class to help with data management in a desktop UI?

Is there a Java utility class to help with data management in a desktop UI?
I am writing a UI to configure a network device that will be connected to the serial port of the computer while it is being configured. There is no web server or database for my application. The UI has a large number of fields (50+) spread across 16 tabs. I will write the UI in Java FX. It should run inside the browser when launched, and issue commands to the network device through the serial port. A UI has several input fields spread across tabs and one single Submit button. If a field is edited, and the submit button clicked, it issues a command and sends the new datum to the device, retrieves current value and any errors. so if input field has bad data, it is indicated for example, the field has a red border.
Is there a standard design pattern or Java utility class to accomplish the frequently encountered, 'generic' parts of this scenario? lazy loading, submitting only what fields changed, displaying what fields have errors etc. (I dont want to reinvent the wheel if it is already there). Otherwise I can write such a class and share it back here if it is useful.
someone recommended JGoodies Bindings for Swing - will this work well and in FX?

Many thanks for the reply.
In the servlet create an Arraylist and in th efor

The best way to get help with logic

I was posting in a thread on support for logic which appears to have been deleted. anyway, what I was going to say I think is useful info for people, so I'm going to post it anyway. to the mods - it doesn't contain any speculation about policies or anything like that. just an explanation of my views on the best way to deal with issues people have with logic, which I think is a valuable contribution to this forum.
I think there's a need for perspective. when you buy an apple product you get 90 days of free phone support to get everything working nice and neat. you can call them whenever, and you could actually keep them on the phone all day if you wanted, making them explain to you how to copy a file, install microsoft office, or any number of little questions no matter how simple - what is that red button thingy in my window for?.. on top of that, you've got a 14 day dead on arrival period (or 10 days I can't remember) in which if your machine has any kind of hardware fault whatsoever it's exchanged for a totally new one, no questions asked. a lot of people complain that applecare is overpriced.. and if you think of it just as an extended warranty, then it is a little pricey. but if you are someone that could use a lot of phone support, then it's actually potentially a total bargain. the fact that 2 or more years after you bought a computer, you could still be calling them every single day, asking for any kind of advice on how to use anything on the machine, is quite something. many people on this forum have had problems when they made the mistake of upgrading to 10.4.9 without first creating a system clone or checking first with their 3rd party plug in vendors to make sure it was ok. so, with apple care, you could call them and keep a technician on the phone _all day_ talking you through step-by-step how to back up all of your user data, how to go through and preserve your preferences and any other specific settings you might not want to lose, and then how to rollback to an earlier OS version.. they'll hold your hand through the whole thing if you need them to.
as for applecare support for pro apps like logic, I'd be the first person to agree that it's not great for anyone except beginners and first time users. if you look at what it takes to get even the highest level of logic certification, it's all pretty basic stuff. and logic doesn't exist in a vacuum, there is an entire universe of 3rd party software and hardware, as well as studio culture and advanced user techniques that are going to be totally invisible to some poor phone support guy at apple that did a logic 101. but it's not hard to see that apple are trying to promote a different kind of support culture, it's up to you to decide whether you want to buy into it or not.
the idea is that they are able to provide basic setup support for new users, including troubleshooting. because it's a simpler level of support, at least they can do this well. so there's no reason why any new user with say a new imac and logic can't get up and running with the 90 days of phone support they get for free.
but the thing is, for extremely high end pro users it's a different matter altogether. pro use of logic within the context of say, a studio or a film composition scenario is a very different world. it's almost a nonsense to imagine that apple could even hire people capable of giving useful support for this end of the spectrum, over the phone. there are so many variables, and so many things that require a very experienced studio person or in-work composer to even begin to understand the setup, let alone troubleshoot it. and it's a constantly evolving world, you actually have to be working in it and aware of developments on 3rd party fronts as well as changes in hardware.. not to mention even changes in the culture of studio production and the changed expectations that come from that. there's no way some poor little guy sitting at a help desk at apple can even hope to be privy to that kind of knowledge. it's already good enough that they don't outsource their support staff to india, let alone go out to studios and hire the very people with the skills that should be staying in the studio! not answering phones for apple.
so, given this reality.. companies have two choices. they can either offer an email based support ticket system, which others do. but in my opinion.. this can just be frustrating and only a half-solution. sure you 'feel' like you are getting a response from the people that make the software and therefore must know it.. but it's not really the case due to what I said above. DAWs don't exist in a vacuum, and so much of what you need to understand to help people requires an intimate knowledge of the music industry in which they are working. you still won't get that from steinberg, even if they sort of answer your emails. the other problem is that this kind of system can mean sporadic answers, a lot of tail-chasing, and quite often you won't get an answer that helps you in the end anyway.
the other model is to foster a strong user support culture. some people react in the wrong way to this idea.. they just think it's a big brush off from the manufacturer, saying we don't care, go sort it out yourselves.. but this isn't true. apple has a classification for pro resellers called 'apple solutions expert - audio'. what this means is that these dealers are recognised as audio specialists and they can receive extra support and training from apple for this. but more importantly than this.. most of them are music stores, or pro gear dealerships that are also mac and logic dealers. they already employ people that have worked or do work in the music industry, and are constantly on top of all of this stuff. apple encourages these dealers to run workshops, and to provide expert sales advice in the very niche area that logic is in, which they can do far better than some generic apple store ever could. but most importantly, they are encouraged to offer their own expert after-sales support and whatever other value-adding expertise they can, to get sales. because margins in computer gear are so tight nowadays, discounting is not really a viable option for these dealers to guarantee getting musicians to buy computers and logic setups from them. the only companies that can entice people with a lower price a big online wholesalers or big chain stores. so the best idea for these niche expert stores to get sales is to offer you their own experts to help with configuration, ongoing support and to generally make it a better idea that you bought your system from them rather than from some anonymous online store. I can see the wisdom of this.. it puts the support back out there on the ground where it's needed, and also where it can work best. apple could never hope to offer the same level of expertise in helping a film composer work through some issues with a specific interface or some highly specific issue they have with getting a task done. no big software manufacturer could do this anywhere near as well as people out there that have worked in studios or currently do work in studios. so in my opinion it's a far better model to foster this kind of support culture, along with training courses, books and training video support. also user forums like this one are possibly one of the most valuable ports of call anyone could ask for. apple couldn't replicate this with their own staff, even if they tried. and even if they made a system where some of the people close to logic development were able to answer emails, it would still be nowhere near as useful, as rapid or as capable of being up to speed with logic use out in the real world with 3rd pary gear, as any of these other methods are.
the only thing I think they could do better would be to publish a list of known bugs which are officially recognised. this would help everyone and put an end to a lot of wasted time and speculation on if something is a bug totally to do with logic, or if it's a specific issue raised by a particular configuration.
but really, in my view, a 3rd party support and training culture through a combination of specialist dealers, consultants that literally run a business setting up computers for pro-users and helping them keep it all working, online user-to-user forums and published materials really are the way forward.

In all honesty this is currently the 3rd "logicboard" (motherboard)
in my powerbook due to a design flaw regarding the 2nd memory slot....
Yep. Mine failed five weeks after I bought it. However, I bought it for work and couldn't afford being without it for four weeks while they fixed it, so I had to live with it. My serial number did not entitle me to a replacement either, post Applecare.
My firewire ports have burnt out from a third-party defective device (no hot-plugging involved)
My screen is blotchy (my PW serial number did not entitle me to a replacement).
My battery serial number did not entitle me to a replacement, and is not that good these days.
My guaranteed Powerbook-compatible RAM is actually not, causing RAM related problems, most notably these days meaning that as soon as I switch to battery power, the laptop crashes, so I can only use mains power. The company I bought it from stopped taking my calls and wouldn't replace it after they replaced it once, so I'm stuck with it. And of course, only one ram slot is working, so I can't even use my original stick in the first slot, which would shift the dodgy stuff away from the lower system area.
My power supply failed at the weak spot and caught fire. I managed to break apart the power supply and recable it so I didn't have to buy a new power supply, although the connection at the laptop end is loose (all the more fun that as soon as power is lost, the laptop crashes - see above). The power supply is held together with gaffa tape. Silver gaffer tape though, so it's still kind of 'Appley"...
My internal hard drive is dying - four or five times now it clicks and won't power up, causing the laptop to die.
One foot has fallen off (but glued back on).
The lid is warped.
The hinge is loosish.
The S-Video adaptor cable is intermittent.
But aside from all that, I have looked after it well, and I love it to death. Just as well, because it doesn't look like it will be that long...
But it still "just works". Apart from the battery power obviously. And the ram slot. And the ram. And the screen. And the hard drive. And the firewire ports. And the feet.
But everything apart from the main board, the screen, the case, the hard drive and the power supply works fine. So thats... er..
Hmm.

Noob needs help with Logic and Motu live setup.

Hello everyone,
I'm a noob / semi noob who could use some help with a live setup using 2 MOTU 896HD's and Logic on a Mac.
Here's the scenario:
I teach an outdoor marching percussion section (a drumline and a front ensemble of marimbas and vibes). We have an amazing setup of live sound to amplify and enhance the mallet percussion. There is a yamaha PA system with 2 subs and 2 mains which are routed through a rack unit that processes the overall PA balance. I'm pretty sure that the unit is supposed to avoid feedback and do an overall cross-over EQ of the sound. Other then that unit, we have 2 motu896hd units which are routed via fire-wire. I also have a coax cable routing the output of the secondary box to the input of the primary box (digital i/o which converts to ADAT in (i think?)..?
Here's the confusion:
There are more then 8 inputs being used from the ensemble itself, so I need the 16 available inputs to be available in Logic. I was lead to believe that the 2nd motu unit would have to be sent digitally to the 1st motu unit via coax digital i/o. Once in Logic, however, I cannot find the signal or any input at all past the 8th input (of the 1st unit).
Here's the goal:
All of my performers and inputs routed via firewire into a Mac Mini running OSX and Logic pro.
I want to be able to use MainStage and run different patches of effects / virt. instruments for a midi controller keyboard / etc.
I want to be able to EQ and balance the ensemble via Logic.
Here's another question:
How much latency will I be dealing with? Would a mac mini with 4gb of ram be able to handle this load? With percussion, I obviously want the sound as latency free as possible. I also, however, want the flexibility of sound enhancement / modification that comes with Logic and the motu896hd units.
Any help would be REALLY appreciated. I need the routing assistance along with some direction as to whether or not this will work for this type of application. I'm pretty certain it does, as I have spoken with some other teachers in similar venues and they have been doing similar things using mac mini's / logic / mainstage / etc.
Thanks in advance,
Chris

You'll definitely want to read the manual to make sure the 896HDs are connected together properly. ADAT is a little tricky, it's not just a matter of cabling them together. Go to motunation.com if you need more guidance on connecting multiple devices. Beyond that initial hookup, here are a couple of quick suggestions:
1. Open CueMix and see if both devices are reported there. If not, your connections aren't correct. Be sure to select 44.1kHz as your sample rate, otherwise you are reducing the number of additional channels. For instance at 88.2kHz you would get half the additional channels via ADAT.
2. You may need to create an aggregate device for the MacBook to recognize more than the first 896HD. Lots of help on this forum for how to do that. Again, first make sure you have the 896HDs connected together properly.
3. As for latency with Mainstage on the Mini, no way to know until you try it. Generally MOTU is fantastic for low latency work but Mainstage is a question mark for a lot of users right now. If the Mini can't cut the mustard, you have a great excuse to upgrade to a MacBook Pro.

Urgent Help with Planning Book

Hello Gurus,
Need your help with a very urgent issue. I cannot see my key figure values in my planning book(Interactive Planning). I could sucessfully generate my CVC, then initialised my planning area. Then when I go the interactive planning I can see all my characteristics -Ex Material master( has all values), Prod type has values, etc. Iam in DEV system and have to move the whole config to QA now. I have to validate that the config works in QA. Its works ok in the sandbox but I cannot figureout why I can not see the values for key figs that Iam loading from a Flat File. Please help!!!!!!

Hello Suresh,
I have one more question for you. Let me tell you my scenario. I have the client giving me a rough forecast for the future. I have to do stat forecast based on the history and check that against the initial forecast given by them. But, the problem I realised now is that when I go to my planning books I can see the values for 2008 in mothly buckets since I have 0calmonth. But the client gave me another file with forecast for 2008 in monthly buckets and for 2009 and 2010 in quarter buckets. So, i have a planning buck profile defined to meet that but, how do I upload the file with both 0calmonth and 0calquarter in a single file. Please let me know!! Urgent task.
Thanks again,
Chinna.

Please help with CS3 -shobat

I would like to know where I can get help regarding reinstalling Photoshop CS3. I bought Photoshop a long time ago when it was on a disk. I kept upgrading it until I had upgraded it to CS3. Recently my computer crashed that had the Photoshop CS3 on it. I'm trying to get the Photoshop CS3 on my new computer, but it wants the serial # of the original program, but it DOES NOT list the photoshop 3 or photoshop 4 that I bougt years ago. I registered Photoshop CS3 so it should be on file that I own it. Can anyone tell me where I can get help with this. CS3 cost me a lot of money and I like using it.

You might be out of luck since Adobe no longer provides support for CS3. The only hope you might have is to contact Adobe Support by chat or by phone and explain to them your scenario and hope that you get someone who is willing to work a bit and see what they can do to help you thru.

Help with oracle 11g pivot operator

i need some help with oracle 11g pivot operator. is it possible to use multiple columns in the FOR clause and then compare it against multiple set of values.
here is the sql to create some sample data
create table pivot_data ( country_code number , dept number, job varchar2(20), sal number );
insert into pivot_data values (1,30 , 'SALESMAN', 5000);
insert into pivot_data values (1,301, 'SALESMAN', 5500);
insert into pivot_data values (1,30 , 'MANAGER', 10000);
insert into pivot_data values (1,301, 'MANAGER', 10500);
insert into pivot_data values (1,30 , 'CLERK', 4000);
insert into pivot_data values (1,302, 'CLERK',4500);
insert into pivot_data values (2,30 , 'SALESMAN', 6000);
insert into pivot_data values (2,301, 'SALESMAN', 6500);
insert into pivot_data values (2,30 , 'MANAGER', 11000);
insert into pivot_data values (2,301, 'MANAGER', 11500);
insert into pivot_data values (2,30 , 'CLERK', 3000);
insert into pivot_data values (2,302, 'CLERK',3500);
using case when I can write something like this and get the output i want
select country_code
,avg(case when (( dept = 30 and job = 'SALESMAN' ) or ( dept = 301 and job = 'SALESMAN' ) ) then sal end ) as d30_sls
,avg(case when (( dept = 30 and job = 'MANAGER' ) or ( dept = 301 and job = 'MANAGER' ) ) then sal end ) as d30_mgr
,avg(case when (( dept = 30 and job = 'CLERK' ) or ( dept = 302 and job = 'CLERK' ) ) then sal end ) as d30_clrk
from pivot_data group by country_code;
output
country_code          D30_SLS               D30_MGR               D30_CLRK
1      5250      10250      4250
2      6250      11250      3250
what I tried with pivot is like this I get what I want if I have only one ( dept,job) for one alias name. I want to call (30 , 'SALESMAN') or (301 , 'SALESMAN') AS d30_sls. any help how can I do this
SELECT *
FROM pivot_data
PIVOT (SUM(sal) AS sum
FOR (dept,job) IN ( (30 , 'SALESMAN') AS d30_sls,
          (30 , 'MANAGER') AS d30_mgr,
(30 , 'CLERK') AS d30_clk
this is a simple example .... my real life scenario is compliated with more fields and more combinations .... So something like using substr(dept,1,2) won't work in my real case .
any suggestions get the result similar to what i get in the case when example is really appreciated.

Hi,
Sorry, I don't think there's any way to get exactly what you requested. The values you give in the PIVOT ... IN clause are exact values, not alternatives.
You could do something like this to map all alternatives to a common value:
WITH     got_dept_grp     AS
     SELECT     country_code, job, sal
     ,     CASE
              WHEN job IN ('SALESMAN', 'MANAGER') AND dept = 301 THEN 30
              WHEN job IN ('CLERK')               AND dept = 302 THEN 30
                                                                 ELSE dept
          END     AS dept_grp
     FROM     pivot_data
SELECT     *
FROM     got_dept_grp
PIVOT     (     AVG (sal)
     FOR     (job, dept_grp)
     IN     ( ('SALESMAN', 30)
          , ('MANAGER' , 30)
          , ('CLERK'   , 30)
;In your sample data (and perhaps in your real data), it's about as easy to explicitly define the pivoted groups individually, like this:
WITH     got_pivot_key     AS
     SELECT     country_code, sal
     ,     CASE
              WHEN job = 'SALESMAN' AND dept IN (30, 301) THEN 'd30_sls'
              WHEN job = 'MANAGER' AND dept IN (30, 301) THEN 'd30_mgr'
              WHEN job = 'CLERK'    AND dept IN (30, 302) THEN 'd30_clrk'
          END     AS pivot_key
     FROM    pivot_data
SELECT     *
FROM     got_pivot_key
PIVOT     (     AVG (sal)
     FOR     pivot_key
     IN     ( 'd30_sls'
          , 'd30_mgr'
          , 'd30_clrk'
;Thanks for posting the CREATE TABLE and INSERT statements; that really helps!
