How do you all schedule iterative                          "rework"

This deals with anticipated iterative "events" in a
Schedule.
We are an electric
utility and one of our hard spots is scheduling re-work.
For example, we route a path for a transmission line so
that we can survey, permit, and enter into negotions for
easement acquistion. A number of things can happen during
negotiations but often times there are requests to
"re-route" or move a pole location which leads to
unplanned design work.
Anyhow this
can happen a number of times on longer lines and I'd like
to capture the effort(s) so I'm curious how you all might
handle these in a schedule. This does fall into "Change
Management" but we don't use Contract Manager.<br
/>
Thanks,
Patrick

One way is to add a new WBS for each Change Request
and add new activities under this WBS for the re-work,
assign resources and budgets to these and re-jig the
relationships between these and the pre-existing
activities.
By creating a new
WBS for each Change Request you can track the impact
of each Change Request to the cost and the
schedule.
I know this is
painful, but it works.
Cheers

  • How to drop all scheduled jobs

    Hi,
    in 8i, how to drop all oracle scheduled jobs ?
    Many thanks before.

    SELECT job FROM user_jobs;
    exec dbms_job.remove(23);
    To remove all jobs, you can write a pl/sql block to loop through all jobs and remove them.

  • How to cancell all scheduled jobs

    Is there a Command line (or) any other option to kill all scheduled jobs, because when cloning of data happens from Production to other testing instance, scheduled jobs will still be running and are consuming space.
    We could use admin screen , killing one by one is taking lot of time.
    Appreciate your input
    Thanks

    Hi user10596151,
    you can try the following:
    To disable all of the scheduled workbooks immediately, use the following PL/SQL block. The PL/SQL block should be run as a privileged user (such as 'system').
    Declare
    cursor c1 is
    select job from all_jobs where what like '%EUL5%';
    begin
    for i in c1 loop
    dbms_job.broken(i.job,true);
    end loop;
    end;
    Note: For Discoverer 4 replace EUL5 with EUL4

  • Project Manager? How do you all use it?

    Hi. Im new to the project manager. It seems as if it could be of benefit to me using it to organise my sessions. What is it for and how do you use it. I have read the manual but want some personal feedback. Thanks, Ben

    in theory, the PM keeps tabs on all the files used/made in your sessions.
    sorta like a dedicated version of spotlight.
    the initial scan takes a while, but then all your audio, midi and patches are in one place after that.
    i do a PM scan before and after each important session.
    PM can miss stuff, so if you've just added a new sample lib, or tracked some vox for eg., it's a good idea to scan just the audio file section of the tree on the left.
    similar with new esx instruments, songs, etc.
    the find function allows you to see all clips that meet with the critera set and i use that to check for copies, duplicates, redundant files, etc.
    you can also edit any files PM finds. in this way, it's like a bigger, better version of the audio window.
    it's too bigger subject to go into too much more detail here, but sufficed to say, i have a lot less trouble with logic finding things if PM is kept up to date.

  • How did you all get your new alum iMacs so quickly?

    As you can see from my profile, it it time for a new Mac! I have been told by various Mac suppliers in my area that they would not get their shipments of alum iMacs until the end of August. I tried to get one through the Apple online store, same release date.
    However, since reading this forum, as well as the display forum, I am starting to have second thoughts, due to the calibration and screen quality issues.
    Could it be that Apple is delaying shipments now, because they are busy fixing the bugs in the screen?
    Any thoughts? Thanks!

    Thanks for the replies, folks.
    +A handful of people who do not actually own a new iMac have generated a large number of posts about glossy screens and color matching between the iMac monitor and paper printing being unsuitable for professional graphics design work. It's a tempest in a teapot as far as the rest of us go.+
    I am beginning to agree with this statement! It is easy getting caught in "the tempest" while one is reading all the various posts. It is heartening to read more and more posters having positive experiences with the new iMacs. I am not a graphic artist, designer, nor a professional photographer. I do use iphoto and photoshop to "tweak" my family photos. I also enjoying tinkering with idvd and imovie with my kids. My son especially enjoys making stop action Lego movies! My PowerPC has handled these tasks admirably, yet slowly, so it is time to move on.
    I don't rush into any purchase of this sort without extensive research and reading. I obviously get full value out of my computer purchase (10+ years since the last one), and I don't feel the need to buy another computer anytime soon.
    Now I just need to decide on the 20" or the 24". Any thoughts?

  • How are you all able to test Workflow

    I'm trying to implement workflow (update values). It is my understanding that any changes made to the workflow don't show up until the next day. If I am correct this makes it hard to test a workflow (in a timely manner)to be sure it is set up correctly.

    One thing I've learned is to debug the workflow creating tasks that are assigned to yourself. Once that is working, then go switch to email (assuming that's what you are trying to do). I've found the task creation to be very dependable. Email delivery has disappointed me more than once.

  • How do you all...........

    How do apply for a student version of the latest, Adobe Photoshop lightroom program.

    The easiest way, in my opinion, is to go to your local university or community college bookstore where they sell software.  Present appropriate credentials, and purchase Lightroom.  That's how I do it.

  • Curious how you all organize your videos/music/pictures

    I am curious to know: How do you all organize/keep/archive (1) the videos you have created, (2) your music in iTunes, (3) your photos in iPhoto?
    Do you keep each individual video on a separate CD or DVD? Or all in one ex. hard drive? Or?
    ~L

    I keep my iTunes Library on my iMac's drive, with a backup copied to another external drive.
    My iPhoto Libraries (I have 12 right now) are on an external drive, with backup on another external drive, not the same one that backs up my iTunes.
    For my iPhoto Libraries, I number manually all the photos in each 'Family Photos' album for each year, aftr I have finished putting them in chronologic order. I do this myself because I want the photos to sort the way I placed them. I burn those photos to DVDs from Finder so I can save those discs as backups of all my photos. If my drives fail, or if my family ever needs to print some of these photos, I have the photos in the order they would be in if they were printed and put into an album chronologically. There are other photos in my iPhoto Libraries that are either similar, not great shots or some that I don't necessarily want in my Family albums. I do not need to save them for posterity and if they were lost or forgotten it would not matter to my kids and grandkids.
    I am not yet using iMovie 9 a lot so I don't have more than a couple of small movies there.
    I use iMovie 6 and have my in-progress movies on the external drive that has my iPhoto Libraries. I have copies of all those movies on another external drive and I try to update that whenever I do any extensive editing of my iMovies.
    After I have finished editing an iMovie, I export it back to miniDV tapes using my camcorder. Apparently exporting back to camcorder is not a feature of iMovie 8 or 9.
    I then put my iMovie(s) into iDVD projects, burn 5 DVD disks from each project (one for us, one for each kid, one extra and one for secure saving) and save each project as a disc image file. After checking that the DVD has burned correctly and that the iMovie does not need to be further edited, and after the edited iMovie has been exported back to tape, I then delete the iDVD project and the iMovie used in that project.
    I put one DVD copy of each iDVD project in our safe-deposit box.
    I keep all the disk image files on two separate external drives. I even went back to the DVD discs that I had made before iDVD had the option to create disk image files and created disk image files from the discs. I can now reburn any of my projects whenever I need another copy. Even though I have several copies of each project, DVD discs can crack, melt, scratch and break, so I wanted to be sure I could always have another copy.
    I am somewhat concerned that newer technology will produce some sort of image/video-storage device and all my DVDs will need to be converted to that format, but I figure that will be the job of my children and/or grandchildren. At least I will have all our old photos and videos preserved in a digital format.
    I am almost finished with my project of putting all our photos/videos on DVDs for the years 1890-2010. I have completed 1974-2009 except for the last two months of 2009. I am working on the 'early years' and when finished with that, I will be up to date. At that point, hopefully in the next two or three months, I am going to learn iMovie 9 and FCE and purchase a new HD camcorder and a better still camera, so maybe my organization plan will change a bit for movie clips.

  • How do you carry the darned thing around?

    OK, this will sound like a really stupid question, but seriously: I've ordered a new RAZR MAXX and it seems absolutely enormous to me.  This will be my first "smartphone" and while I'm looking forward to all the features and functionality, I'm seriously wondering where I'll put it.  It seems too big to fit comfortably into a pants pocket (where I'm accustomed to carrying my ancient, tiny dumbphone.)  I see people at work who literally carry "smartphones"  around in their hands from meeting to meeting, placing them like status symbols on each conference room table.  I'm not into that, and would surely forget to pick it back up and would leave it behind at some point.  I see a few people with those belt holsters; let's just say I'm not seeing those as a fashion statement that's for me. So what does that leave?  How do you all do it comfortably (and without breaking it by, say, sitting on it?)

    Jerry sometimes i put my Maxx in my Oakly Glasses Bag:  I put one in another for a little more thickness an Protection an they make for a really good thing to Clean the Razr's Display as the Bag is Made for this type of thing.  Jerry Here is Also the Body Glove Case Not a Big Picture but if you Click on it.

  • How to find and export all Scheduled Tasks in Domain with multiple servers.

    Hi everyone,
    I have been given a task of finding all of Scheduled Tasks in the Domain on all of the servers. So far I have manage to create a script that will pull out all Scheduled Tasks from one Server, in this case Domain Controller. 
    Butt in my company are more than 150 servers so I am looking for a script that can connect to AD (or LDAP), than to certain OUs, then pull out Server list and than query them for Schedule Task. I have found already some scripts online and tried to adjust
    them butt they simply didnt work.
    I am new in the company and still learning about the system,  this is my first real task so any help will be greatly appreciated.

    Just a tip that I found after running across this myself - if you run a
    Get-AdComputer -filter {operatingsystem -like '*server*'} | ft name | out-file servers.txt
    and then save the output to a text file, it may look good, but there may be white space at the end of the computer names. Make sure that only the computernames are in the file and then the script works great.
    http://absoblogginlutely.net
    This would happen because you are trying to get around the format of the output.  When you want the raw value do it this way;  it is faster and easier:
    Get-AdComputer -filter {operatingsystem -like '*server*'} |
         %{$_.Name } | out-file servers.txt
    Now there can never be any extra spaces and there will be no header to cause problems. 
    This is why it pays to spend time studying the details of how PowerShell works instead of just sticking things together until you get a result.  PowerShell is designed to do all of these things without fudging or guesswork but it requires that you actually
    learn how it works.  I highly recommend stating with a good technical book on PowerShell.
    ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I "upgraded" to Lion and hate it - it was so much easier before. I managed to delete on MacBook (to start from scratch there), but cannot delete from iphone or ipad. I am so frustrated! Please help

    Hi Cynthia!  If you are syncing from something like Gmail you can go into the iPhones Settings>Mail, Contacts, Calendars>(account you are syncing)> and turn off contacts. It will ask you if you want to delete them from your phone - just click delete.  Exit Settings and turn phone off by power button (not all the way OFF).  Then re-open Settings>mail, Contacts, Calendars>(account you are syncing)> and turn Contacts back on - This is where you need to be careful - When you turn contacts back on you will be prompted to delete or save the contacts already on your phone. CLICK DELETE.  You should now have only your synced contacts on your phone!  Hope it helps!
