How are APO/R3 dates calculated

Hi All,
In APO, for a PO, we have ' Requirement date', 'Availability date' and in R3, we have reqmnt/rect date and delivery date.
How are these dates calculated from a reference?
My understanding- System takes the requirement date( date on which there is a reqmnt for the material), subtracts a time equal to GR+GI time and arrives at Availability date. the same Availability date is transferred to R3 as 'Reqmnt/Rect date'. But how is the delivery date in R3 calculated?
suppose I have a requirement date in APO, what are the details that I need to calculate successive dates?
Regards
Manotosh

Hi,
I have one confusion pls. clarify.
Requirement date=Date of demand on which material is required.
Delivery date= Date of demand- planned delivery time /transportation duration
Availability date= Delivery date+GR process time.
In product veiw in APO you will see as availability date and receipt date.

How are the IC's calculated in the IIR Cascade Filter with I.C. vi

How are the IC's calculated in the IIR Cascade Filter with I.C. vi

Solved this myself.
Attached llb has subVI that computes the IC's needed to remove transient given a constant value step input to the IIR Filter.
Computes filter state (see app note 39) for cascade filter using z-transform final value theorem.
This version works for all filter types, ie lowpass, highpass, bandstop and bandpass.

How to use Dynamic date calculation in some transactions.

Hello everyone.
I have to create some dynamic variants using the dynamic date calculation. The problem is that in some transactions it´s not possible to use some variables that can round a value. For example: in transaction /SAPAPO/MC90, I need to fix 3 months in the horizon like this: From date: 01.01.2009 To date 31.03.2009. The current month is 01.01.2009. Next month the current month will be february, so the horizon would be 01.02.2009 to 30.04.2009.
In 5.1 version, it´s impossible to fix the months, because the options that appear in the match code are:
Current Date
Current date +/- ??? days
current date +/- ??? work days
First day of current month
nth working day of current month
First day of next month
First day of previous month
Last day of previous month
Last Day of the Current Month
Does anybody knows how to do this? This is happening in other transactions to.
Thanks a lot
Regards
Angela

I am not sure where you are looking for..but here is what I can do it in MC90 Tcode:
1. when you try to save the variant, in the variant screen check the two boxes under "Current date" field for Selection Variables attributes "L"
2. Then click on Selection variables option and click on the "D" variable so that it turns to green
3. Drop down in the first current date field, select "Current +/- ??? days. here if you want to start from today's date maintain 0 days
4. In the second Current date field maintain 90 days in "Current +/- ??? days.
5. save it
please let me know if I misunderstod the issue

How are the subst data tags used in Portal Server

I noticed this tags in the authentication pages, where are they stored? How do I modify their value? How are they used? A reference to the admin or programers guide is plenty I just couldn't find one.
Thanks!

They are defined in the auth module properties files (however I don't think any are defined in the product as it ships). The tags are of the form:
<subst data="key">othervalue</subst>
If the key is defined, the value of the key is substituted for othervalue, otherwise it is left untouched.

How are SNP order dates decided?

Hi All,
Where do we maintain the settings to tell SNP to generate orders(PRs/STRs/Planned orders) at the begining of the period OR at the end of the period OR in the mid of the period?
Regards
Manotosh

Hi,
While maintaining Transaportation Lanes (Transaction: /SAPAPO/SCC_TL1 ), in the u201CMeans of Transportu201D detail screen, you have u201CPeriod Factoru201D field . This Period Factor field is used for Calculating the Availability Date/Time (Factor used by the system to calculate the availability date/time of a receipt element within a time period (bucket) ).
Its use is as below:
The system determines the exact availability date/time of the receipt elements within a period, by adding a time interval (that it gets by multiplying the period factor with the period length) to the start time of the period. You can enter a factor between 0 and 1, where 0 is the start of the period, 0.5 the middle, and 1 the end of t
he period. When calculating the availability date/time, the system takes into consideration all weekdays, meaning that it does not take into consideration any days that have been defined as non-workdays in the calendars.
The following applications can take the period factor into account:
u2022 Heuristic in Supply Network Planning (SNP)
The SNP optimizer does not consider any period factor.
u2022 Period lot-sizing procedure in Production Planning and Detailed Scheduling (PP/DS)
There is one more field u201CBucket Offsetu201D and this is also used alon with the above field value, if required.
I hope this gives you insight.

How Are "Top Paid Apps" Calculated?

Hi! I'm curious if anyone knows how the "Top Paid Apps" list is calculated in iTunes?
Is it based directly on # of sales, or total sales $, or maybe rate of sales?
Thanks!

It is like that now, since 4 days ago...
someone I know has experienced it, in French store it was first in free application (because of a promotion, the App was originally not free), He became first of the free Apps, and when the promotion has ended, he passed to paid again, and nothing... It should have shown in Top Paid Apps, but no.
I have seen the same thing with Air Sharing, which was 1st of the paid application, because of its huge download number, when the price changed, it stayed one day on top of paid Apps, and the next day, it was out of the top50, you can't get out of the Top50 so quicly, Apple must have done something about it !

How are the VLANs Data stored in the VTP Domain

Hello All,
I'm confused a bit in the VTP Domains.
Now, I have 3 Switches in the network, with the modes below:
Switch
Mode
Switch A
Server
Switch B
Transparent
Switch C
Client
Now, I know that the Server and Transparent stores the VLANs in a VLAN.dat file in the NVRAM. What about the client? Does it keep the VLANs in the RAM and when rebooted starts getting the VLANs again from the Server?
Best Regards,
Islam M. Nadim.

Hi,
With all recent IOS versions, switches always keep the VLAN database stored in the vlan.dat, regardless of their VTP mode (server, client, or transparent). Some old sources say that clients did not maintain their own vlan.dat file and kept the VLAN database in RAM only. This may have been the case with CatOS and/or very old IOSes, but it is not true anymore.
Best regards,
Peter

How are valid-from and valid-to dates set in TRPROD table in APO during CIF

First question:
How are the valid-from and valid-to dates set in the APO TRPROD table?
For example, if I activate a transportaion lane model on March 1, 2008, will the valid-from and valid-to in TRPROD be 20080301 and 99991231?
Or are these dates defined in the model itself? Or in APO config somewhere?
Next question:
Suppose I rerun the model on May 1 2008 to add some records that didn't get added in the March 1 run. But suppose I want to back-date the valid-from of these records to March 1, rather than use May 1 as the valid-from.
Can this be done?
Or is the valid-from always the date of the CIF that creates the TRPROD records?
Please advise.
Thanks

Hi Srinivas -
Thanks very much for replying so quickly, but your response didn't answer the questions.
Let me try again.
1)
If I run a CIF on March 1 2008 based on a model that will generate APO TLane data, will the TRPROD valid-from and valid-to get automatically set to 20080301 and 99991231?
2)
If the answer to this question is yes, then is it also true that if I run a new set of records in on May 1, 2008 (no duplications with the original set), then the valid-from and valid-to dates will be 20080501 and 99991231.
3)
But if (1) and (2) are both true (if you answer them both "yes", then suppose I want the May 1 record set to have valid-from dates of March 1 (for example, if the May 1 record set includes records that didn't get included in the March 1 set due to an error in selection criteria). How do I get the valid-from to be March 1 when I run the CIF on May 1?
On the other hand, if (1) and (2) are NOT true, then how DO the two dates get set during a CIF ????
Thanks

How is delivery date calculated

How can anyone please explain how delivery date is calculated using forward and backward scheduling
I want to have it broken down into the following steps
for eg for delivery date calculation following dates are used
Material Availabilty Date
Material Staging Date
Pick/pack time
Transportation PLanning date
Loading date
Goods issue date
Transit Date
Delivery Date
Can some one please give me an example and explain wht these dates are
for eg customer needs delivery date on 11/20/2008
how would the system cacluate whether it can meet the delivery date using backward scheduling
and if it doesnt meet how does the system do the forward scheduling
also i am not clear with the following dates
material avaialibilty date
material staging date
transportation date
can some one please explain me all this in detail
Also i have another question at the sales order creation when is shipping point and route determined
coz based on the ATP check only material avaialabilty date is determined and if we have a bacjground job running every 1 hours for atp then immediately when we create a sales order is a route and shipping point determined (just before we save the sales order)
Let me be more clear
Suppose customer representative recevies a order on the phone
he enters sold to party, ship to party ,PO number,delivery date and material number and then hits enter
so at tht time the shipping point and route is determined ?
also when an atp check runs and if the delivery date is not met then the system will propose a new delivery date but if we have a different route configured say for eg overnight so we can meet the delivery date and we want to change this route to overnight what must we do?
should we change the shipping condition in the header?
I am not very sure about the process can you please also explain me this in detail?
Thanks

Hi there,
When a sales order is logged & the user enters the requested delivery date, system 1st does the backward scheduling date. Pla note that the factory calender mentioned in the shipping point & route plays a crutial role in defining the working days & confirmed delivery date.
For eg: Customer has raised an order on 11/15 & requests delivery on 11/20/2008.
the following times are important in delivery scheduling.
Transit time: maintained in route
Loading time maintained in the shipping point
Transportation planing time maintained in the transportation planning point.
pick pack time maintained in the shipping point.
Material availability time maintained in MM02 --> MRP screens. This is the time that the material can be manufactured (for inhouse producted items) or external processing time (for externallly procured materials like TAS items).
From the requested delivery date 11/20 system does the backward scheduling & determines the following dates:
Goods issue date, loading date, pick pack date, transportation planning date & material availability date.
Time between:
goods issue date - reqested delivery date: transit time
Goods issue date - loading date: loading time
transportation planning date - pick pack date: picking pack time
Material availability date - transportation date: transportation planning time.
Consider that the factory calender has all days of the week as working dates (to make it simple to explain). Also transit time is 3 days, loading time is 1 day,pick pack time is 1 day, material availability time is 3 days.
From 11/20 ussing backward scheduling system determines the following dates:
Goods issue date: 11/17
Loading date: 11/16
Pick pack date: 11/15
System will check if material is available on the 11/15 to start pick / pack. If it is available then system will confirm the reqested delivery date. Else it will check when the material is available. For eg basing on the MRP settings mnaterial is available only on 11/18. So from 18th system does forward scheduling & redetermines all the dates. So pick / pack date is 11/18. Loading date is 11/19, goods issue date is 11/20 & possible delivery date is 11/23. So system will confirm the delivery date on 11/23. This is when complete delivery is required. If partial delivery is allowed, then system will check how much quantity is available on 11/15. Accordingly it will give 2 delivery dates.
In the above example include teh factory calender which will have 5 day week with Fri & Sat as holidays. Accordingly dates will change.
Here replenishment lead time also plays an imp role. Pls refer http://help.sap.com/erp2005_ehp_03/helpdata/EN/6b/2785347860ea35e10000009b38f83b/frameset.htm for further information

Hi Experts,
Can anyone make me clear about:How to use Replacement Path Variables to perform Date Calculations???????
Thankyou in advance..
shankar

In left panel select the time Dimension
Then hit new variable in that
give the Name and Description for the Variable
In processing by hit Replacement Path
In reference characterisitcs use Calendar Day...
As ur intention is to use it for Date
Then in adjacent tab use
Replace variable with Query / Variable
Then u can use Offset length and offset start for controoling the display of your variable.
Use as single, multiple single, interval, selection option as uwish
HIt okey
and you are good to go

SSRS 2008 Column Chart with Calculated Series (moving average) "formula error - there are not enough data points for the period" error

I have a simple column chart grouping on 1 value on the category axis. For simplicity's sake, we are plotting $ amounts grouping by Month on the category axis. I right click on the data series and choose "Add calculated series...". I choose moving average. I want to move the average over at least 2 periods.
When I run the report, I get the error "Formula error - there are not enough data points for the period". The way the report is, I never have a guaranteed number of categories (there could be one or there could be 5). When there is 2 or more, the chart renders fine, however, when there is only 1 value, instead of suppressing the moving average line, I get that error and the chart shows nothing.
I don't think this is entirely acceptable for our end users. At a minimum, I would think the moving average line would be suppressed instead of hiding the entire chart. Does anyone know of any workarounds or do I have to enter another ms. connect bug/design consideration.
Thank you,
Dan

I was having the same error while trying to plot a moving average across 7 days. The work around I found was rather simple.
If you right click your report in the solution explorer and select "View Code" it will give you the underlying XML of the report. Find the entry for the value of your calculated series and enter a formula to dynamically create your periods.
<ChartFormulaParameter Name="Period">
<Value>=IIf(Count(Fields!Calls.Value) >= 7 ,7, (Count(Fields!Calls.Value)))</Value>
</ChartFormulaParameter>
What I'm doing here is getting the row count of records returned in the chart. If the returned rows are greater than or equal to 7 (The amount of days I want the average) it will set the points to 7. If not, it will set the number to the amount of returned rows. So far this has worked great. I'm probably going to add more code to handle no records returned although in my case that shouldn't happen but, you never know.
A side note:
If you open the calculated series properties in the designer, you will notice the number of periods is set to "0". If you change this it will overwrite your custom formula in the XML.

How are Game Center "Friend Recommendations" people I know in real life? (Meetup/Facebook data?)

This seems like a major privacy concern, but mainly I'm just very curious how this can possibly happen:
The Game Center app suggests primarily people I have met in real life... but have had NO online interaction with!
I life in a high-population US city, yet at least 2/3 of my Friend Recommendations (maybe more if they had photos or knew these peoples' last names) are people I have actually MET in person and know vaguely... but who I do now know well and who are NOT friends/contacts in any online service.
I have never emailed them (with two exceptions); we don't even know each others' email addresses, and even if we did, my Apple ID email is not one I use for actual emailing purposes. Nor do we know each others' phone numbers, nor gaming nicknames; often not even last names. I didn't even know that they owned iOS devices or played games at all!
We have certainly never played games with one another before; in fact, I have never used Game Center's friend feature and I don't have any GC friends. I only play random matches, and almost always on non-GC game services, for that matter.
None of them has ever made a friend request to me. I've only ever gotten one GC request, long ago, and I denied it; it was not someone I knew.
Some of them list "zero games in common" so it's not even that (and anyway, millions of people have games in common with me).
Only one of them is in my Contacts (iOS/Mac address book), and knowing how serious they are about privacy, I doubt the email address I have is their AppleID. I know your address book can (for now) be accessed without permission, but these people just aren't listed.
But I DO run into these recommendations in person every so often!
These cannot be randomly selected by geography because a) they're not super close to me in miles, and b) there are millions of iOS users near me. No way that most of the suggestions would be people I've met, if this were chance alone. SOME source of data is being used by GC, and I'm baffled as to what it could be.
The closest three theories I can come up with are all pretty implausible:
1. Indirect Facebook connection. These people are NOT my Facebook friends (with a couple exceptions; I never actually use Facebook but I do have an account, and if someone requests, I generally accept). I double-checked that. But they MAY be "friends of friends" possibly. But how would Apple obtain my FB friend list? And if they did have it, wouldn't they just suggest my actual FB friends, not friends-of-friends? My Facebook login email address is an alumni address that I have never used for any other purpuse; it is not my Apple ID. And I have diligently set nearly every option to "hidden" on Facebook: even friends see a mostly blank profile!
2. Meetup.com. This is a 100% correlation! I'm in several local groups that use Meetup.com to schedule meetings, and ALL of these Game Center recommendations are memebers of Meetup groups that I too am a member of. That's how I've met most of them. But Meetup has no "friends" feature, and most of these people have had no online connection with me (Meetup messages etc.) through Meetup. We've just attended the same events--which do have online RSVP lists--or else we are merely listed as members of the same group(s). (But we're talking large groups, so I haven't actually met most of the members, and I have met most of these GC recommendations.) But how would Apple obtain my Meetup info? Again my Meetup account's email address is not my Apple ID, and I have never used that email address with any Apple service (although it is on my Contacts card).
3. Maybe Apple harvested my address book/contacts list (which does NOT contain these people), and also harvested the contacts lists of these people, AND also harvested the contacts lists of people we know in common who happen to have both of us listed. Then they put it all together. (That's a stretch: the people I know the best on Meetup--whose info I do have in Contacts--are Android users!) But again, why not recommend my actual contacts, instead of contacts-of-contacts? My actual contacts--which contain numerous iOS users and games--are notably absent from the recommendations (with one exception).
Obivously Apple cannot, and does not, literally know who I have met. (No foil hat for me!) But they DO seem to have some data source that correlates closely with people I have met (and Meetup activity especially). I'm dying to know how that's possible.
This is a privacy concern, for at least three reasons I can think of:
1. GC lists these people's real names AND GC nicknames together--BEFORE I have accepted them as friends! And vice versa, I'm sure my nickname is being shown with my real name to total strangers. That means strangers, employers, stalkers, whoever, can now tie a person to their nickname (often the same one they use all over the Interner, not just GC). But we're not talking random suggestions: this is being show to people I DO know. Maybe I don't want them Googling my online nicknames! Maybe I complain about my work with that nickname Maybe I want my online friends and real-life acquaintainces kept separate. I definitely want EVERYTHING kept separate from these people I barely know but run into from time to time! One of these people is, in fact, on the sex offenders registry, and has stalked a friend of mine both online and offline. Maybe he'll learn my GC nickname--the same way it has shown me his--and can now Google that!
2. If I have a lot of "games in common" listed, then they can peg me as a "gamer," which is sometimes a negative. Maybe I want my boss (or whoever) to think I'm more serious, even if he games too, and now he knows I have 30 games and wonders why I'm not staying late to work Maybe I just don't want to be roped into being "friends" online with my boss, or having to let him win games! Again, although this is a small issue at first glance, it's less small when things are being shared with people you really DO know in real life. What if my hypothetical stalker sees I have games in common? Sure, I can deny their friend request and cancel their 500 game attempts, but I'd rather be 100% hidden from them in the first place. I have no prior online contact, I want it to stay that way, and I've never given Apple permission, that I know of, to share my real name with people I never friended. (And even if I did, it should be with random strangers--not actual acquaintances.)
3. The big mystery--how is Apple getting data that correlates with who I've met in the first place? I'm guessing that some people see the same pattern I do, and some don't; which might lead to an answer, but so far I'm stumped. (If this does tie to Meetup some bizarre way, that would be unnerving because Meetup ties me to real places and specific times.)
Theories are welcome! And a basic question: what data sources DOES Game Center have available to use in making friend suggestions? I would have guessed maybe Location Services (nearby people) and people who have played a game with me (or made a friend request) in the past. But those sources are not what I'm seeing.
(Even weirder is that nobody else seems to have posted about this happening; it may not happen to everyone, but surely some people have had this same question? I feel like I'm in a Kafka novel...)

That's a good thought that could explain some cases, but not mine: these people definitely don't know my email address, and I'm not in their Address Book. (Some of these are people I might meet on a hike, say, and nod to in passing on other hikes once a or twice a year, and that's the extent of the "relationship"--no contact info ever exchanged. We don't even know what cities each other are from.)
we don't even know each others' email addresses, and even if we did, my Apple ID email is not one I use for actual emailing purposes. Nor do we know each others' phone numbers, nor gaming nicknames; often not even last names.
I should correct my first post: I said I "do now know well"... that should be "do NOT know well".

Me and my partner are currently using the same apple id and have no space left on our devices. We are currently waiting on the iphone 6 plus to arrive and don't know how to transfer all data to the new phones.

Me and my partner are currently using the same apple id and have no space left on our devices. We are currently waiting on the iphone 6 plus to arrive and don't know how to transfer all data to the new phones.?

I don't know if I'm asking this all in a way that can be understood? Thanks ED3K, however that part I do understand (in the link you provided!)
What I need to know is "how" I can separate or rather create another Apple ID for my son-who is currently using "my Apple ID?" If there is a way to let him keep "all" his info on his phone (eg-contacts, music, app's, etc.) without doing a "reset?') Somehow I need to go into his phone's setting-create a new Apple ID and possibly a new password so he can still use our combined iCloud & Itunes account?
Also then letting me take back my Apple ID & password, but again allowing us (my son and I) to use the same iCloud & Itunes account? Does that make more sense??? I'm sincerely trying to get this cleared up once and for all----just need guidance from someone who has a true understanding of the whole Apple iCloud/Itunes system!
Thanks again for "anyone" that can help me!!!
