Hi experts i have some doughts

i have loaded data into data targets but i want to load data to a particular 0MATERIAL object is it possible or not? if yes how ?if no why?

Hi,
Add that particular field in the datasource and replicate the datasource in BW too, so that the changes to the structure also get reflected. Then you can go about loading the data again. I guess you got the point.
Regards,
Kishore

  • Hi experts i have some while generate purchase,sales and inventry flows

    hai,
           as usual i am using general purchase,sales flow for purchase,sell items to customer and vendor.but its not my issue.the main issue is when i purchase item from vendor i pay some amount to vendor.like this issue when i sell goods to customer i am getting some amount from customer.but whatever amount i am getting from customer and pay to vendor its not hit proper account and its shows negative symbol.
    for example:
             this is my flow for purchasing item
    purchase order------ goods receipt po-- a/p invoicedamaged goods after pay amount-- credit memo
            this is my sales flow
    sales order-- delivery--
    a/r invoice
    while i am doing this process the account whatever generates shows negative sign. its not properly hit specific account.
    plz can u solve this pblm and reply about appropriate account

    Hi,
    you should have a lock under :
    Administration -> Setup -> Financial -> G/L Account
    Under tab purchase and sales you might assign the same g/l accounts for receivable and payable accounts. You should check all accounts, if they are correct.

    Hi all,
    Which client number you use for the current
    project?
    You are running a report. It is taking long time for
    execution. What steps will you do to reduce the
    execution time.
    After running a BDC program in background, next
    day morning when you see the results, few records
    are not updated(error records). What will you do
    then?
    You are given functional specs for a BDC program
    and you need to decide whether to write a method
    call transaction or a session. How u will decide?
    What is the difference between report and script?
    what are the differences between scripts & smart
    forms?
    what are enhancements?
    what are user-exits?
    what is badi?
    what is the difference between user-exit & BADIs?
    what is the difference between user-exit &
    customer-exit?
    how do you get functional specs  when you are
    assigned some object? (specs through email..??)
    How do you write technical specs?
    How do you write UTP?(unit test plan)

    Which client number you use for the current
    project?
    CLIENT NUMBER ALLWAYS VARIES. USUALLY 300/800.
    You are running a report. It is taking long time for
    execution. What steps will you do to reduce the
    execution time.
    THERE ARE SO MANY PERFORMANCE ISSUES TO UPGRADE THE REPORTS. LIKE SQL TRACE ETC...
    After running a BDC program in background, next
    day morning when you see the results, few records
    are not updated(error records). What will you do
    then?
    THE ERROR LOG WILL BE CREATED IN THE DATABASE. WE NEED TO ANALYSE THE ERRORS . THEN, IF THE ERRORS ARE OF SAME KIND, MODIFY THE PROGRAM AS FOR ERROR ANALYSIS AND RUN THE PROGRAM AGAIN. IF ERRORS ARE OF DIFFERENT TYPES. U NEED TO UPDATE MANUALLY.
    You are given functional specs for a BDC program
    and you need to decide whether to write a method
    call transaction or a session. How u will decide?
    USUALLY THE METHOD OF BDC COMES IN THE FUNCTIONAL SPECS ITSELF.
    What is the difference between report and script?
    USING THE REPORTS WE CANT CHANGE FONTS AND FORMAS. LOGOS CANT BE DISPLAYED. WE CANT ENTER THE DATA IN THE PRE-PRINTED STATIONARY. DUPLEX PRINTING NOT POSSIBLE WITH REPORTS. HEADER AND FOOTERS CANT BE INCLUDED. CANT CHANGE THE LANGUAGE.
    bUT ALL THESE CAN BE POSSIBLE THRU SCRIPTS.
    what are the differences between scripts & smart
    forms?
    SMARTFORMS ARE UPDATED VERSIONS. AND USERFRIENDLY.
    what are enhancements?
    SAP IS OF A PACKAGE OF WITH MANY EXISTING OBJECTS. MOST OF THE TIMES WE USE THE EXISTING OBJECTS AND MODIFY THEM AS PER REQUIREMENT AND USE. SOMETIMES SOME OBJECTS CAN NOT OFFER THE REQUIRED FUNCTIONALITY. THEN USING THE ENHANCEMENTS WE CAN ADD OUR OWN FUNCTIONALITY TO THE OBJECTS.
    what are user-exits?
    ALMOST SIMILAR TO ENHANCEMENTS.
    what is badi?
    BUSINESS ADD INS(BADI'S) ARE THE ADVANCED CONCEPTS OF ENHANCEMENTS. THESE ARE ASSOCIATED WITH OOPS CONCEPTS.
    SE18 AND SE19 ARE THE TCODES FOR BADI CREATION AND IMPLEMENTATION.
    what is the difference between user-exit & BADIs?
    BADI'S ARE ADVANCED.
    what is the difference between user-exit &
    customer-exit?
    CUSTOMER EXIT IS A PART OF USER EXIT.
    how do you get functional specs when you are
    assigned some object? (specs through email..??)
    DEPENDS ON THE COMPANY. USUALLY WE GET A ID OF THE SPEC THRU MAIL. USING THAT ID WE GET THE FUNCTIONAL SPEC IN THE CLIENT'S SITE. THERE WILL BE AN OPTION TO SEARCH THE OBJECTS THRU ID.
    How do you write technical specs?
    IT IS LIKE PSUDO CODE DEVELOPED BEFORE GOING TO THE CODING. U CAN COMPARE IT LIKE FLOW CHART.
    How do you write UTP?(unit test plan)
    UNIT TEST PLAN IS A CONCEPT OF CHECKING LIKE WHETHER WE R GETTING THE DESIRED OUTPUT FOR THE SPECIFIED INPUT OR NOT. NOTHING ELSE.

  • I have some queries usage of RAID 1 on OSX

    Hi there
    I apologise for the length of this question, but there's quite a bit of relevant data. I work in a small typesetting company (<10 employees) and since a HDD failed on an old G4 iMac that we used as a data archive we have learnt that without our data we are nothing. I have now been asked to implement a more reliable back up/recovery system (with minimum downtime) that increases the 'safety' of our customer's data. Rebuilding the archive took days to sort out and because the archive was constantly accessed by our production macs and a couple of PC as well, it hit us hard.
    We are looking into turning an old G5 Powermac (1.8Gz single processor 2.5Gb RAM) into a RAID 1 (mirrored) system with 2 x 1TB SATA drives using Disk Utility. We would have this to protect against one HD failing and losing customers' data. I understand that this is not a back up system, just something that would protect customer's data should a drive critically fail. I have some queries regarding how this works though.
    1) How much (if any) maintenance is required on a RAID system? None of use are IT specialists - just typesetters with a bit of technical knowledge.
    2) Is a mirrored RAID system reliable, considering multiple people are reading/writing to the machine throughout the day?
    3) Do RAID 1 systems handle being accessed by different OSs (WinXP, Win7, OSX 10.4–10.6) well?
    4) Am I right in thinking that OSX would see the two drives as separate volumes?
    5) Should one drive fail and need to be 'rebuilt' via Disk Utility, can users still access the one working HD, or do you need to replace the failed HD and rebuild before anyone can access the data again?
    6) Considering Question 4 above, do we need to have a 3rd 'spare' 1TB Drive just in case?
    7) We are looking into a two-week backup system, backing up all the customers data on a daily basis, with the previous week's disk being stored off-site. We were initially looking into either Carbon Copy Cloner or RSync the copy data to external HDDs. How would you rate Time Machine against these products, and does anyone have any experience using these solutions with RAIDed Macs?
    8) Is there any 'downside' to RAID 1 systems?
    I know this is a lot of questions, but I really don't want to start down this route unless I understand it better first.
    Many thanks in advance for your contributions!

    Thanks for your reply!
    So, in order to have a RAID visible and accessible by multiple OSs, and to eliminate downtime during rebuilds, a hardware RAID would be necessary.
    Well, not quite. When you create a RAID in Disk Utility, the volume only exists as a MacOS X file system. Your Mac can share that volume to any other machines or operating systems.
    What I mean by a hardware RAID is some box whose output port is eSATA or USB or some other non-network storage port. On such a device, the logic to create the file system is inside the box. Any machine that is connected to it would see only a single disk. You would still have to ensure that different operating systems could understand whatever file system you were using (HFS+, FAT, NTFS, etc), but that is the same as if you had a non-RAID external drive.
    I have one of those. It is an older FireWire 800 drive that has two 300 GB disks inside. To any machine I connect that to, it appears as a single 600 GB drive. This particular device isn't designed for mirroring, however. If it were, it would only show itself as a 300 GB hard drive and I would have the capability to easily swap out the internal mechanisms when they fail.
    By 'hardware RAID', do you mean inserting a RAID controller card inside the G5, or a separate storage device, such as a RAIDed NAS-type-thing? Would an ethernet-connected NAS be slower to access than a G5 with internal SATA? Am I right in thinking that those RAID-ready NAS devices cannot be partitioned at all?
    I qualified the above to explicity avoid NAS devices just to simplify things.
    I'm not familiar with RAID controller cards. My guess is that they are just a cheaper alternative to an external RAID device. It would allow you to plug your own hard drives into the controller card and create the RAID. They would certainly provide higher performance that if the operating system were handling the details.
    If you want to have a RAID for data reliablity, you really need an external, self-contained device that has a standard hardware storage port you could plug into any machine. It would look and act just like any other external hard drive. But if a drive failed, a light would flash on the box and you could just pull out the failed hard drive and replace it with a new one. You wouldn't even need to power anything down.
    For both RAID controller cards and stand-alone boxes, you may or may not need additional software to partition and format the drive. It depends on the model and manufacturer.
    Such a device could also be NAS. In this case, it would have an ethernet interface instead (or in addition). The difference is that such an interface would almost always be slower than a true storage interface like Firewire or USB. Plus, you would usually have to let the box itself handle its partitioning and formatting. Since it is designed to be a networked drive, you don't need another machine to be the server. It is its own server. This is useful in those cases where you don't want/need a dedicated server. The downside is that it probably runs some lowest-common denominator Windows networking for maximum compatibility. Foreign, networked filesystems are always going to be more flaky. Some software may not work. Some OS upgrade may give you hassles.
    To be honest, I'm no expert on RAIDs. In such situations, I usually just defer to people I know are experts. So, just buy the amount one of these: (http://eshop.macsales.com/shop/hard-drives/RAID/Desktop/), plug it in, and go. I suggest RAID 5.

  • Lists workstations wchich a=have some network printers installed

    Hi to all,
    I really need help. My boss asks me to write  a powershell script wchich can list all the

    network Lexmark printers installed.And where the name of these network  printers start with "BO" for example.
    I'm learning Powershell by myself and i'm not an expert.
    Any help please.
    Thank you in advance for your answer.
    Regards,

    Network printers are not installed to the workstation.  They are usually installed to the user account.
    If there are any attached fromm Group Policy this is how to find them
    get-printer -Name BO* -ComputerName PC01 |where type -eq 'Connection'
    I also recommend that you ask you boss what his definition of "Network Printer" is?

  • I have some dts cd's that I want to import into itunes on a windows pc and then play back on my apple tv 3 (i think its 3, about 9 months old) to listen to through my onkyo amp via hdmi as dts, when I play back I just get white noise.

    I have some dts cd's that I want to import into itunes on a windows pc and then play back on my apple tv 3 (i think its 3, about 9 months old) to listen to through my onkyo amp via hdmi as dts, when I play back I just get white noise. I have seen lots of old posts which go on about converting files but am wondering wherher at the current time with the latest versions of itunes and apple tv whether this should by now be a virtual play out of the box solution.
    I have tried connecting my atv to the amp by optical cable but that didnt produce anything better and am assuming that a hdmi cable should be able to reproduce everything an optical cable does.
    Is this something I should be able to achieve without having to recode the files?
    Tracks are imported to itunes as apple lossless, have tried setting the atv audio settings to auto and 16 bit, neither works yet I was told some time ago by an apple rep that the atv shoud be able to handle any type of audio as it just passes it to the amp to decode. I am not stupid but not that technical when it comes to audio and bitrates etc so any explaination would be appreciated.
    Thanks in advance for any help

    Willy, the procdedure you describe works perfectly for AppleTV G1. In fact, I frequently play DTS music discs ripped to my iTunes library as Apple Lossless (ALAC) and synched to the ATV. What happens is that, as far as iTunes and the ATV are concerned, a conventional stereo 16/44 audio file is being played; however my reciever detects the DTS data stream, and instead of outputting static, it decodes the 5.1 channels correctly. This process parallels the way DTS discs were designed to be played back: a conventional CD player is connceted, via digital out, to a DTS-aware reciever/pre-amp and the two channels of static are recognized as 6 channels of DTS-encoded audio.
    However this process will only work if the player (CD, ATV, PC, etc.) sends a "bit-perfect" 16 bit/44.1 khz data stream to the decoding device. In the case of ATV G2 and G3, as has been discussed elsewhere, the unit resmaples all audio - including 16/44 PCM (Redbook CD)  - to 16/48. While this is not a big deal for conventional audio CDs, MP3s, and AAC files, it mangles the fragile DTS datastream and renders it undecodable. The resulting static that you hear is just like the static you would hear if you played a DTS CD on a non-DTS capable system.
    Sadly, I'm not aware of any easy way around this. You could use a program like Foobar (and the DTS plugin) to convert your DTS CDs to 6-ch .wav or .flac file. From there you could transcode the file to AC-3 and then mux it into a video container that ATV supports. You may need add a dummy video track, for iTunes/AppleTV to be ok with the file, though I'm not sure. This may be a lot of work.
    Sorry for the bad news. I wish that the iTunes/ATV ecosystem had better multi-channel audio support.

  • I have some questions regarding setting up a software RAID 0 on a Mac Pro

    I have some questions regarding setting up a software RAID 0 on a Mac pro (early 2009).
    These questions might seem stupid to many of you, but, as my last, in fact my one and only, computer before the Mac Pro was a IICX/4/80 running System 7.5, I am a complete novice regarding this particular matter.
    A few days ago I installed a WD3000HLFS VelociRaptor 300GB in bay 1, and moved the original 640GB HD to bay 2. I now have 2 bootable internal drives, and currently I am using the VR300 as my startup disk. Instead of cloning from the original drive, I have reinstalled the Mac OS, and all my applications & software onto the VR300. Everything is backed up onto a WD SE II 2TB external drive, using Time Machine. The original 640GB has an eDrive partition, which was created some time ago using TechTool Pro 5.
    The system will be used primarily for photo editing, digital imaging, and to produce colour prints up to A2 size. Some of the image files, from scanned imports of film negatives & transparencies, will be 40MB or larger. Next year I hope to buy a high resolution full frame digital SLR, which will also generate large files.
    Currently I am using Apple's bundled iPhoto, Aperture 2, Photoshop Elements 8, Silverfast Ai, ColorMunki Photo, EZcolor and other applications/software. I will also be using Photoshop CS5, when it becomes available, and I will probably change over to Lightroom 3, which is currently in Beta, because I have had problems with Aperture, which, until recent upgrades (HD, RAM & graphics card) to my system, would not even load images for print. All I had was a blank preview page, and a constant, frozen "loading" message - the symbol underneath remained static, instead of revolving!
    It is now possible to print images from within Aperture 2, but I am not happy with the colour fidelity, whereas it is possible to produce excellent, natural colour prints using its "minnow" sibling, iPhoto!
    My intention is to buy another 3 VR300s to form a 4 drive Raid 0 array for optimum performance, and to store the original 640GB drive as an emergency bootable back-up. I would have ordered the additional VR300s already, but for the fact that there appears to have been a run on them, and currently they are out of stock at all, but the more expensive, UK resellers.
    I should be most grateful to receive advice regarding the following questions:
    QUESTION 1:
    I have had a look at the RAID setting up facility in Disk Utility and it states: "To create a RAID set, drag disks or partitions into the list below".
    If I install another 3 VR300s, can I drag all 4 of them into the "list below" box, without any risk of losing everything I have already installed on the existing VR300?
    Or would I have to reinstall the OS, applications and software again?
    I mention this, because one of the applications, Personal accountz, has a label on its CD wallet stating that the Licence Key can only be used once, and I have already used it when I installed it on the existing VR300.
    QUESTION 2:
    I understand that the failure of just one drive will result in all the data in a Raid 0 array being lost.
    Does this mean that I would not be able to boot up from the 4 drive array in that scenario?
    Even so, it would be worth the risk to gain the optimum performance provide by Raid 0 over the other RAID setup options, and, in addition to the SE II, I will probably back up all my image files onto a portable drive as an additional precaution.
    QUESTION 3:
    Is it possible to create an eDrive partition, using TechTool Pro 5, on the VR300 in bay !?
    Or would this not be of any use anyway, in the event of a single drive failure?
    QUESTION 4:
    Would there be a significant increase in performance using a 4 x VR300 drive RAID 0 array, compared to only 2 or 3 drives?
    QUESTION 5:
    If I used a 3 x VR300 RAID 0 array, and installed either a cloned VR300 or the original 640GB HD in bay 4, and I left the Startup Disk in System Preferences unlocked, would the system boot up automatically from the 4th. drive in the event of a single drive failure in the 3 drive RAID 0 array which had been selected for startup?
    Apologies if these seem stupid questions, but I am trying to determine the best option without foregoing optimum performance.

    Well said.
    Steps to set up RAID
    Setting up a RAID array in Mac OS X is part of the installation process. This procedure assumes that you have already installed Mac OS 10.1 and the hard drive subsystem (two hard drives and a PCI controller card, for example) that RAID will be implemented on. Follow these steps:
    1. Open Disk Utility (/Applications/Utilities).
    2. When the disks appear in the pane on the left, select the disks you wish to be in the array and drag them to the disk panel.
    3. Choose Stripe or Mirror from the RAID Scheme pop-up menu.
    4. Name the RAID set.
    5. Choose a volume format. The size of the array will be automatically determined based on what you selected.
    6. Click Create.
    Recovering from a hard drive failure on a mirrored array
    1. Open Disk Utility in (/Applications/Utilities).
    2. Click the RAID tab. If an issue has occurred, a dialog box will appear that describes it.
    3. If an issue with the disk is indicated, click Rebuild.
    4. If Rebuild does not work, shut down the computer and replace the damaged hard disk.
    5. Repeat steps 1 and 2.
    6. Drag the icon of the new disk on top of that of the removed disk.
    7. Click Rebuild.

    Drive A + B = VOLUME ONE
    Drive C + D = VOLUME TWO
    What you put on those volumes is of course up to you and easy to do.
    A system really only needs to be backed up "as needed" like before you add or update or install anything.
    /Users can be backed up hourly, daily, weekly schedule
    Media files as needed.
    Things that hurt performance:
    Page outs
    Spotlight - disable this for boot drive and 'scratch'
    SCRATCH: Temporary space; erased between projects and steps.

    (normally I'd link to Wikipedia but I can't load right now)
    Disk drives are the slowest component, so tackling that has always made sense. Easy way to make a difference. More RAM only if it will be of value and used. Same with more/faster processors, or graphic card.

  • Today i am going to buy iphone 4s . i have some questions.

      i wanto to buy   IPhone 4S off contract from apple store , will they sell it to me?  is it a factory unlocked  iphone??  if i need any repairs in the future .what happens if i send it to repair , will they give me a AT&T phone ,   do i need to wait for the "factory" unlocked that is supossed to come in november ?  the last one ,
    when there is an update for the iphone, i want to update it. but my iphone is factory unlocked . and i was wondering if it will still be factory unlocked if i updated it?
    because i just heard .someone already bought a  free-contract iphone 4s at the apple store. you just need to CONNECT to itunes and then it said," congratulation your iphone has been unlocked"   is it true ?        can someone answer my question?       
    i am waiting for your question......................
    [ thank.]

    That is impossible since every iPhone sold in the USA until the November release will have some sort of sim card in it. What differs is whether you purchase subsidized or not. Once the item is purchased without any subsidy it is automatically unlocked. I've unlocked two so far just by plugging them into iTunes: "Congratulations, your iPhone has been unlocked".
    The unlocked packaging will be exactly the same but will have different SKU numbers and will not come with a sim card and will have an ejector tool.
    I just had some issues replacing my unlocked phone since it was malfunctioning. They replaced it with a locked unit & then came to the conclusion they are unable to unlock it. I had to return the phone and repurchase another for the unlock to work again. Come Novemeber they will have actual "unlocked" replacements.

  • I have some problems while passing control array as refernce to the sub vi and sub VI crashes not deterministically after few minutes

    Hallo every body,
    i have some questions when i am passing the refernces to the sub_VI
    1)when i run the application, the blink indicator(in main VI) starts blinking. even in sub_vi for true case i set it true and for false case i set it false. why from begining of the execution it starts blinking?
    2)the stop button i am using in main VI is too slow. when i press the stop button it takes too much time to stop the application. why?
    3)the array control (amplitude, freq,total time taken )
    i am creating references of array. then these references i am sending to for loop. where it will convert as scalr values and then these scalar values to the sub_vi. opposite to it i am getting the reference of scalar cycles value and i am buliding an array of these scalar cycles to show it in indicator. it seems not to be working properly. why?
    for this exexution some times i get error 91.
    4) sometimes in the begining i get error 1055. why?
    5) my sub vi crashes not deterministically.some time times after 2 minutes. some times after 5 minutes. by crash i mean i dont get an error but on the oscilloscope i see not smooth sine signal, but some strange broken, unbroken, delayed(all together mixed signals). why?
    thanks for the important suggestions.
    Regards

    1) At some point the Blinking property gets set. Then the errors result in the program terminating. The property never gets reset. Setting a Property node in the main VI with Blinking = False prevents this.
    2) You have 1 second Wait until next multiple delays in both the main and subVI loops. Depending upon which delays have executed when you push the Stop button it can take two seconds or more before all the loops execute again and note the Stop button.
    3) The references are to arrays. (Time Taken, Amplitude, Cycles and Frequency) but you are connecting scalar values to the Values properties. Variant does not mean you can connect anything and it will convert to what you want. Once the Type has been set (when the control was created), the property node input matches that type.
    4) 5) I never got this far so I cannot explain these errors. However, I suspect that once you fix the others, these will either be fixed also or the cause will become more apparent.
