How do I automatically create a new file at the beginning of a new day, otherwise I only want to append that days file?

In my robotics application I store my data using "Write to Spreadsheet.vi". I would like to append the file each time I run the program on any given day. On a NEW day I would automatically like to create a new file with a smiliar name and append that file for the day on which it is created. It's easy to do using the "Write to Measurement File. vi" but the text file created is vertical rather than horizontal, so I would like to use "Write to Spreadsheet". Any suggestions?
Also how to I include my VI as part of this question for others to see?
Thank you.

Does the file you are writing have a timestamp in it? If so you could read the timestamp from the last time it was written and see if the day has changed, handling the name of the file appropriately. The easiest way to record the timestamp is probably to write the timestamp as the number of seconds that have elapsed since 12:00 am on Firday January 1st 1904 in UT. The "Get Date/Time in Seconds" function will give you this value.

Assuming you have RAW photos
Edit->Catalog Settings > Metadata then check “Automatically Write Changes to XMP”

How can I automatically create the files with serie-name?

Hello, Everyone,
I have a question again.
How can I automatically create the file with a serie-filename?
e.g. I have a program, it will repeat 5 times, and every time it will create a bmp-file, and I want to let this program automatically save these 5 files with a Serie-filename like File001.bmp, File002.bmp, .... File005.bmp.
How can I do it?`
Thanks a lot.

How do you automatically create paragraph styles from a document?

Hi,
(posted in general indesign as well - advised to post over here)
I know I've seen this somewhere but can't for the life of me find it...
How can I automatically create paragraph and character styles in an InDesign CC document? I'm sure I saw a script to do this and though I'll download that later...only i can't find it now.
The scenario is that I have a document created by someone else which has lots of paragraph styles, but each one has over-rides on (so they're not really much use). I'm wanting something that will go through the document and create all the different styles that have been used.
Any ideas?
Thanks

Hi
I was given this tip to try: PerfectPrepText (http://indesignsecrets.com/perfectpreptext-a-smart-way-to-style-local-formatting.php) but couldn't get it to do what i was after unfortunately...however it did point me in the direction of something that does the trick:
PowerStyles (DTP Tools - Power Styles for Adobe InDesign).
Not sure if it's available for CC yet though.
Thanks

How are deliveries automatically created from scheduling agreement?

How are deliveries automatically created from the schedule line of the scheduling agreement? Can anybody explain this step by step? Can we use the code VL10BATCH for this purpose? If we can, how is this code used?
Thanks in advance.

hi
A customer scheduling agreement is an outline agreement with the customer containing delivery quantities and dates. These are then entered as schedule lines in a delivery schedule. You can either create schedule lines when you create the scheduling agreement or you can create them later.
You fulfill a scheduling agreement by creating the deliveries in the schedule as they become due. You process deliveries for a scheduling agreement in exactly the same way as you process a normal delivery. After you have carried out the delivery, the system updates the Delivered quantity field in the scheduling agreement item with the delivery quantity.
The scheduling agreement is used as a basis for delivering a material. The customer sends in scheduling agreement releases, referred to as delivery schedules, at regular intervals to release a quantity of the material.
Document Types
To configure document types for scheduling agreements, choose Sales -> Sales Documents -> Sales Document Header -> Define sales document types in Customizing for Sales and Distribution.
The R/3 System contains the following document types for component suppliers:
LZ - Scheduling agreement with delivery schedules (no external agents)
LZM - Scheduling agreement with delivery orders
LK - Scheduling agreement with delivery schedules (external agents)
ED - Delivery by external agent (consignment issue)
EDKO - External agent correction
RZ - Scheduling agreement returns (no external agents)
KAZU - Consignment pick-up for external agents
KRZU - Consignment returns for external agents
Item Categories
To configure item categories for scheduling agreements, choose Sales -> Sales Documents -> Sales Document Item -> Define item categories in Customizing for Sales and Distribution.
The system determines the following item categories for the related document types in
documents containing materials with item category group NORM:
Item category LZN for scheduling agreement type LZ
Item category LZMA for scheduling agreement type LZM
Item category LKN for scheduling agreement type LK
Item category KEN for document type ED
Item category EDK for positive corrections (or the manual alternative EDK1 for
negative corrections) for document type EDKO
Item category REN for document type RZ
Item category KAN for document type KAZU
Item category KRN for document type KRZU
Schedule Line Categories
To configure schedule line categories for scheduling agreements, choose Sales -> Sales Documents -> Schedule lines -> Define or Assign schedule line categories in Customizing for Sales and Distribution.
The R/3 System contains the following schedule line categories for component suppliers:
L1, BN, L2, and CN for item category LZN
E4, E0, E5, and BN for item category LKN
L2 for item category LZMA (standard for delivery order processing)
Schedule Line Types
To configure schedule line types for scheduling agreements, choose Sales -> Sales Documents -> Scheduling Agreements with Delivery Schedules -> Define schedule line types in Customizing for Sales and Distribution.
Creating Scheduling Agreements
To create a scheduling agreement with delivery schedules:
1. In the Sales menu http://Ext. choose Scheduling agreement ->Create.
2. Enter scheduling agreement type LK (standard) or LZ (external agents) and the
relevantorganizational data.
3. Choose ENTER.
4. Enter the following data:
Sold-to or ship-to party number
Purchase order or closing number
Material or customer material number
You can use the Description field to identify the scheduling agreement. For
example,
you could enter the model year for a particular production series.
The system allows up to 35 digits for a customer material number.
Rounding quantity
Usage
Choose Goto -> Header -> Sales to enter the usage at header level, or Goto ->
Item-> Sales A to enter it at item level. The system proposes usage S, for series, as default in both cases.
Planning indicator
Choose Goto -> Header ->Sales.
Target quantity
Mark an item and choose Goto -> Item -> Sales A
Partners
For scheduling agreements with external agents , choose Goto -> Header
->Partners to enter the external agent as forwarding agent and special stock partner
on the partner function screen.
5. Create a delivery schedule
Mark an item in the scheduling agreement and choose Goto -> Item -> <Delivery
schedule>. Enter:
A delivery schedule number and date
The cumulative quantity received by the customer
The last delivery confirmed by the customer
A schedule line with date, time, and quantity
To enter additional data in the delivery schedule, choose DlvSch.Hdr (delivery schedule header).
configuration:
img->SD->Sales->sales document->scheduling agreements with delivery schedules->
step1: define schedule line types
schedule line types are not schedule line categories. Schedule line types are used for information purpose only.
stds are 1. fixed date 2. backlog 3. immediate requirement
4. estimate
step2: maintain planning delivery sched. instruct/splitting rules
The planning delivery schedule is an internal delivery schedule used to plan requirement s more efficiently. It is sub divided into 3 parts
2.1 delivery schedule splitting rules
2.2 dly schedule instrusctions
2.3 assign dly schedule splitting rules
step3: define sales documents type
step4 : define item categories
step5: define schedule line categories

How to add a created Z function module to the existing list in WE21

Hi all,
There is some existing function modules ( like EDI_PATH_CREATE_CLIENT_DOCNUM ) in WE21 in the function module field.
here, i need to create one Z function module as per user requirement & want to add to that list. is it possible???
actually, i want the file name format is like
" Document Number_YYYYMMDDHHMMSS.xml ". but existing function modules are not giving this format.do anybody give any idea.
correct answers will be rewarded.
Thanks & Regards

HI Pabitra,
Yes, can always change the existing fm and add it with message type as follows pls note step 7 and step 8. (for inbound it is we42 and for outbound it is we41 )
Basic IDOCs have supplied by SAP with standard structure. (Segments). You can extend them with your own segments.
IDOCs does have unique number. They contain control, data, and status records.
Useful Transaction Codes:
WEDI : IDoc Menu
WE02 : IDoc List (can enter IDoc number to select on)
WE05 : IDoc List
WE19 : Transaction WE19 can be used to test the IDoc
WE30 : IDoc Type Development: Initial Screen
WE31: Development Segments: Initial Screen
WE60 : Documentation for IDoc Types. This allows you to view the IDoc you have created.
WE81 : Display View EDI: Logical Message Types: Overview
WE82: Display View Message Types and Assignment to IDoc Types: Overview
WE21 - Creation of POrt
WE20 - Partner Profile creation
SALE - ALE (Application Linking and Enabling) settings
For Outbound ALE Configurations: (Example)
IDoc definitions and necessary ALE configurations settings for the outbound .
Create Idoc segments Transaction WE31.
Create Idoc type Transaction WE30.
Create Message Type Transaction WE81.
Assign Message Type to Idoc type Transaction WE82.
Create a distribution Model - Transaction BD64
An IDoc is simply a data container that is used to exchange information between any two processes that can understand the syntax and semantics of the data...
1.IDOCs are stored in the database. In the SAP system, IDOCs are stored in database tables.
2.IDOCs are independent of the sending and receiving systems.
3.IDOCs are independent of the direction of data exchange.
The two available process for IDOCs are
Outbound Process
Inbound Process
AND There are basically two types of IDOCs.
Basic IDOCs
Basic IDOC type defines the structure and format of the business document that is to be exchanged between two systems.
Extended IDOCs
Extending the functionality by adding more segments to existing Basic IDOCs.
for creating a IDOC
see the below steps for outbound processing IDOCS..
2.1 Outbound Interface
PROCESS DIAGRAM
Outbound Interface
1. Analyse Hierarchy Levels
2. Create New segment
3. Create New IDoc Type
4. Create New Message Type
5. Link Message with IDoc Type
6. Create an entry in EDP13 via transactions WE20 and BD64
7. Populate the Custom IDoc via ABAP Program
7b Error Handling
7c. Send Status Email
8. Test the Population of the Custom IDoc
Step 1 Analyse Hierarchy Levels:
Analyse the data relationships being processed in the interface. Define the appropriate hierarchical Parent-to-Child relationships.
Navigate to transaction code WEDI
Transaction WEDI displays the IDOC main menu. This allows navigation around the various development and control areas to create a customised IDOC.
Step 2 Create a new segment:
via wedi : Development - IDOC Segments or Transaction code WE31.
Enter segment name and click on Create.
The? name of the segment type must start with Z1 , and have a maximum of eight characters.
Enter description and enter the relevant field names and data elements.
The segment should represent a structure in the program so for? each field in the segment a field name and a data element must be defined.
Save the segment and enter Person Responsible and Processing Person .
Go to Edit and Set Release.
Repeat this procedure for each new Segment in the IDOC.
Step 3 Create a new IDOC Type
via wedi Development - IDOC Types or Transaction WE30.
Enter segment name (starting with Z), click on Basic Type and then Create.
Create as new, enter Person Responsible and Processing Person and enter description.
On Create Basic Type screen decide where segments should be inserted and go to Edit/Create Segment.
Complete relevant fields in the Maintain Attributes screen:
From the relevant segments created in Step 2 enter the Segment type and if mandatory segment.
The Minimum and Maximum number of segments to be allowed in the sequence. (One minimum and one maximum if segment is mandatory).
The Parent Segment and Hierarchy Level will be automatically created depending on where in the IDOC tree you decided to create that particular segment.
Repeat this process for each segment needed in the IDOC type, deciding whether to add the next segments at the same level or as a Child.
When IDOC created return to initial screen. Go to Edit and Set Release.
Go to Transaction WE60 to view the IDoc Type you have created.
Step 4 Create new Message Type
via wedi Development - Message Types or Transaction WE81.
Display/Change and click on New Entries
Create a new Message Type and Save.
Step 5 Link Message Type to IDOC Type
via wedi Development - IDOC Type/Message or Transaction WE82.
Display/Change and then click on New Entries.
Enter Message Type, Basic Type (IDOC Type) and Release (46C) and Save.
Step 6 Create an entry in EDP13 via transactions WE20 and BD64.
The partner profile for the Idoc must be set up and generated in the transaction BD64 and transaction WE20.
WE20 Add Message Type to appropriate Partner Type, Enter Message Type, Receiver Port and Idoc Type and Save.
BD64 Create a Model View, Enter Sender and Receiver Ports, Attach Message Type. Go to Environment on Menu and click on Generate Partner Profiles and generate (not save) profile.
Step 7 Populate the custom IDOC via ABAP Program
See Test Program ZOUTBD_IDOC_TEMPLATE, Appendix IV.
Create an Internal Table for each segment type, this should be exactly the same structure as the segment type.
The control record is filled into a structure like EDIDC. The message type and the Idoc type for the Idoc must be populated into the eddic structure.
- PERFORM populate_Control_structure USING c_mestyp
c_SEGMENT_type1.
The data segments are filled into a structure like edidd-sdata; sdata and the segment name are populated into the edidd structure.
- PERFORM transfer_Parent_data_to_seg.
The standard SAP function module MASTER_IDOC_DISTRIBUTE is called to pass the populated IDOC to the ALE Layer.
- PERFORM master_idoc_distribute.
NOTE: This function module is only called for stand alone programs and Shared Master Data programs (SMD). It is not called when using extensions or output determination.
The ALE Layer handles the sending of the IDOC to the receiving system.
Error Handling (see Step 7b).
Commit work.
Project SpecificStep 7b Error Handling
Analyse which fields in the interface are mandatory for the receiving system and who needs to receive error notification.
Declare a structure of type MCMAILOBJ for sending instructions.
Enter values for the internal table based on structure MCMAILOBJ
For selection processes, on SY-SUBRC checks and where fields are mandatory for the receiving system; insert Function Module MC_SEND_MAIL.
Enter values in the following parameters: -
MS_MAIL_SENDMODE = B (Batch Mode)
MS_MAIL_TITLE = 'Mail Title'
MS_MAIL_DESCRIPTION = Error description (e.g. MATNR not given)
MS_MAIL_RECEIVER = Name of Receiver (To be determined)
MS_MAIL_EXPRESS = E (Express Delivery)
MS_MAIL_DLINAME = Leave Blank
MS_MAIL_LANGU = 'E' (Language)
MS_MAIL_FUNKOBJ_NAME = Leave Blank
TABLES
MS_MAIL_CONT = I_MCMAILOBJ
Note:
It has to be determined separately for each interface how these errors and mail notifications are to be grouped dependant upon the number of errors that are potentially likely. One possible approach is to send an email for each reason for rejection and include all the records that failed for that reason in the mail notification. Another possible approach is to send an email for every failure.
When error checking for mandatory fields it is common SAP practice to reject a record on its first failure (irrespective of subsequent errors in that record)
<b>Step 7
(Transaction WE57)
Assign the custom function module to the IDoc type and the message type.
Set function module to type F and direction 2 for inbound.
Step 8
(Transaction WE42)
Create a new process code and assign it to the function module. The process code determines how the incoming IDoc is to be processed in SAP.</b>
Step 9
(Transaction BD67)
Assign the function module to the process code created above. Got to New Entries and enter the process code and the function module name.
Step 10
(Transaction WE20 and Transaction BD64)
Create a partner profile for your message and ensure that in transaction WE20 the process code is the one that points to your function module. (See step 6 of creating Outbound Idocs).
Step 11
Ensure that error handling functionality is present.
If u still have doubt, i can send u the print screen doc - hope this helps u

I hired a commercial artist to create a color image for the cover of a self published book. I want a black and white image for the inside. The commercial artist has not responded to this request. How do I determine the format of the color image, I'm guessing it's Illustrator's formatting but I don't know. How can I find out if Illustrator will open the file and allow alterations? The image opens only in Apple's Pages software?

rons,
It seems that all you have is a raster image, presumable PNG24 or JPEG, in RGB.
It may have been created as raster artwork in Photoshop, or it may have been created as vector artwork with the help of Illy, or as a mixture of vector and raster artwork in either application, or both combined.
If you just need to have a raster representation in black and white based on the current colour image, you may try this, in a new RGB document (View>Smart Guides are your friends):
1) File>Place the image (you may tick Link or untick and have it embedded);
2) Create a rectangle with black fill (R = G = B = 0), at least as large as the image, and place it behind the image (you may ClickDrag with the Rectangle Tool between opposite corners, then Ctrl/Cmd+X+B);
3) Select all and in the Transparnecy palette flyout click Make Opacity Mask with both Clip and Invert Mask ticked.

Automatic creating a Interaction record in the WebClient

Please help! I need a way to automatically create a Interaction Record in the Web Client from a file. Is anybody know how to do this. I need to extract data from another system like R/3 and automatically load this into the interaction record, but I don't which ways to approach.

Hello,
In a SAP standard scenario an interaction record is always created. You can however control this behaviour in the "Business Transaction profile" which is linked to the "main IC web profile". In that business transaction profile you need to define a "leading" business transaction. This leading bus. trans. is the transaction that is created the moment a business partner is confirmed.
To automatically fill this "leading" bus. trans. (an interaction record in your case) you have multiple options, you can code this directly in the webclient BSP pages (eg by subscribing to the "bp confirmed" event and then fill the interaction record that is created) or in the overall system by working with events on bus. obj. To control what is initially filled there is no standard process foreseen in this flow.
Hope this helps,
Kind regards,
Joost

How can I easily create a playlist contain all the songs on my iPhone

How can I easily create a playlist containing all the songs on my phone? I have iOS 7.1.1. on the iPhone. Older versons of iOS had a one button operations to add all songs. iOS 7 does not seem to have this one button operation, which requires me to add songs individually. Considering I have over 1500 songs on my iPhone this takes a long to to do.

It has always been very basic to always maintain a backup copy of your computer for this very occasion. Use your backup copy of your computer to put everything on the new one.
If for some reason you have failed to backup, big mistake, then you can transfer itunes purchases from the iphone to the computer: File>Transfer Purchases
You may be able to buy a 3rd party program to get any other music off of the iphone ( not supported by Apple).
When you sync the iphone, it will erase the current content and replace with content form the new computer.
"Not happy with itunes right now, more then a bit of a joke"
Not itunes fault that you did not do the very basics and maintain a backup copy.

I've created a fillable PDF document in XI Pro. I need to change the body of the document and create a new fillable PDF document. When I do that it won't let me create a new PDF. It keeps saying "no new fields recognized. What can I do to redo my document with the changes in the text, but no changes in the fillable fields?

You start with a source / authoring file for the "static" content (e.g., Name, Last:). Say this is an MS Word file.
You master the "static" content..
You keep this authoring file and have a backup of this file.
You output a PDF and use Acrobat to build and fine tune the "form" (form = the form fields, not the "static" content).
The authoring file and output PDF (with form fields) gives you "rev 00".
Now, you must change something in the "static" content.
Open the authoring file and save as to a new version (e.g., "wordfile_v00" becomes "wordfile_v01).
Output this to "pdffile_v01".
Use Acrobat to open the PDF form file "pdffile_v00". Save As to a new file name ("pdffile_v00update").
Using Acrobat XI Pro the click-path Tools - Pages - Replace lets you replace a page or pages of "pdffile_v00update" with a page or pages from "pdffile_v01".
This replaces the "static" PDF page content and does not affect the form fields on the page.
(you may have to adjust position of form fields)
Save "pdffile_v00update" to "pdffile_v01" to reflect the revised status of the PDF form file.
Be well...

How can I add a dip to white at the beginning of a clip?

How can I add a dip to white at the beginning of a clip? I know where to find it on Pr, but I'm new to AE. I have 2 clips that need to transition one to the other. The first clip ends by dipping to white; therefore, I need to either dip to white at the beginning of the 2nd clip & line them up so they overlap well, OR I need to find a white transition to place between them like in Pr.

Make a whote solid. Animate its opacity from 0 to 100 and back again.
You'll use couple-three layers -- no automatic transitions in AE. That's what Premiere's for.

How do I automatically create a new file at the beginning of a new day, otherwise I only want to append that days file?
