How to assign the same GTIN for different material?

Hi,
I've managed to install an internal number assignment for the GTIN / EAN in material master which works fine.
Now we need to assign the same GTIN to different material numbers.
Since the defined number range is marked as internal I cannot use this number range as the external number range in spro -> Define Attributes of EANs/UPCs (number categories/EAN categories):
I cannot make an external number range with the same data as the internal one, since number ranges must not overlap.
So, here is the question again:
How can I achieve that 1. the GTIN is generated and 2. a GTIN, which is already assigned to another material, can be entered manually in the GTIN field?
Any advice is appreciated,
thanks,
Marco.

1. the GTIN is generated
This should be "external" number range only.
2. a GTIN, which is already assigned to another material, can be entered manually in the GTIN field?
We can enter manually or thru' upload during master data creation provided number range is "external"(refer point no.1 above)
Unable to understand that why you need same GTIN in two different articles?
Request to understand the business process once again as this leads to confusion reg. inventory, PDC and PoS dumping.

You can create a structure for that constant .
You can define in this way
CONSTANTS : BEGIN OF c_pstkey,
                         01 TYPE bschl VALUE '01',
                         02 TYPE bschl VALUE '02',

How to Use the same iview for both KM End User and the KM Administrator

Hi friends,
*This is my scenario :* How to Use the same iview for both KM End User and the KM Administrator but with different Context
Menu Options.
i followed these steps but im getting same context menu for both KM End User and the KM Administrator .
Assign the role Content Administrator to the user km_admin. This is needed so that km_admin can change
the presentation settings for the KM Folder u201EReports_kmFolder‟.
Now, login with user km_admin. Navigate to the Km Folder reports_kmFolder through Content Administration
-> Km Content. Click on Details link of the folder reports_kmFolder.
Go To Settings -> Presentation. Click on the tab u201ESettings for You‟-> Click on button u201ESelect Profile‟.
Select the radio button corresponding to u201Elayout Set‟, and choose u201EConsumerExplorer‟ from the dropdown.
Click u201EOK‟.
Select both the check boxes corresponding to Items Affected as shown above, and click u201ESave‟
Now, remove the u201ESuper Administrator‟ role from the user km_admin and login with this user.
How rto resolve this????
Regards,
Prasad.

Hello Prasad,
Most likely the user km_admin still has system principal roles assigned, even though you removed the Super Admin role, you should check that this user doesn't have any other admin roles, otherwise it will be considered a System Principal user and will therefore still have access to all content. For more information see http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw70/helpdata/en/19/56f28fbd4e11d5993b00508b6b8b11/frameset.htm
Try creating a new user with just read access to the content and you should see that it will not be able to make any changes etc.

MDT Console with more then 15 machines, How to use the same drivers for more machines.

Hello,
I'm am looking for a solution to make our MDT design as effective as possible(as small as posible).
The Situation:
The company has more then 15 different computers added to the MDT console for the automated installation of Windows 7. The installations are done in 2 different ways, 1 with a local USB key installation (with the deployment folder on the USB key) and the other
installation is a network USB key installation (with the deployment folder on the server).
The local USB key exists for offices in parts of the world where the internet connection is poor.
The problem:
We have machines which can use the same driver for different kinds of hardware functions (LAN, WLAN, etc..)
If we add a new machine to the MDT and we don't check the box for "Import drivers even if they are duplicates of an existing driver" we will automatic use the driver which already exists in the deployment folder. If say half a year
later we stop using an older machine which "may" have drivers that are being used for other machines and we delete the machine from MDT we should
NOT check the box "Completely delete these items, even if there are copies in other folders". The problem is that this can also lead to a lot of unused drivers in the deployment folder also because we do not know exactly how many
computers are using a certain driver.
At the moment we have another deployment share with for each machine its own drivers installed (so some drivers will be multiple times in the deployment folder) as you can guess this becomes really big.(deployment folder of more then 24 GB). The advantage
of this is that we can delete a machine from the MDT list without having to worry if the drivers for that machine might be used by other machines. It is now just becoming to big in size(GB).
The Question:
Is there not an option within MDT that checks automatically if the drivers connected to a certain machine in MDT are being used by other machines? In this case we would check the box "Completely delete these items, even if there are copies in other folders"
and MDT would not delete the drivers which are still used for the installations of other computers.
Thanks in advance.
Greets,
Arie

Arie,
I think you are over-complicating this. Basically using drivers that already exist is the way to go. Otherwise drivers will be imported a second, third or fourth time. Which also takes up allot of disk space. If you're concerned about driver management,
then I would suggest to drop your concerns, since there is nothing to less you can do about this particular issue. As long as you don't delete the driver that's been imported earlier by another machine there is nothing to worry.
Ask yourself:
- how long am I going to support model x
- how many times do I want to update drivers
With selection profiles you can easily target which content needs to go where (on your USB drive of-course)
I can imagine that managing 25 shares for 25 different models, just because you 'refuse' to have old drivers in your share, or have removed support for some hardware models, isn't really time and energy efficient too.
If you take a look in your deploymentshare\control folders you will see some XML files. These XML files hold all the entries in your deploymentshare. So your drivers.xml and drivergroups.xml (depending on the number of groups you have) are going to be very
big XML files. These XML files are read by MDT to identify the objects in MDT and under which folder the objects are located.
It's not possible to create or have an dependency between driver files and hardware models, other then creating groups under "Out-of-box Drivers" and using selection profiles.
Another suggestion would be to decrease your number of hardware models drastically. On the other hand, having 25 Gb of offline media isn't really a big deal either. Portable and removable media of those sizes (32 and 64 Gb) isn't that expensive as it used
to be 5 years ago.
Don't get me wrong, I perfectly understand your desire to manage this, but MDT doesn't provide any other way, then the things I have pointed out to you here.
Good luck! :)

Hi,
First go thourh the FM import export parameters list.
Try to create an internal table of type INRI-NRRANGENR for number ranges.
We can provide the lower and higher values for this table so that what ever PO is created will be with that range.
Try to create the ncessary ones using this FM.
In the Exit, EXIT_SAPMM06E_001,
the Export parameters are-
EKKO-EBELN- the PO ios created with in that specified range

PPOME - Can't insert the SAME task for different organization unit

Hi all,
I have a doubt; in SAP 46C, it seems that is impossible to insert in PPOME, Detailed window, Tasks tab the same task for different organization unit. The only way to do this is in PP01 - General management, where you can explicitely create a [B-007] relations with the same "T" Object. Now, it is a little bit difficult for a user to switch from PPOME ad PP01 when defining new organizational structure.
The question: is there any way to insert the <b>SAME</b> task directly in PPOME, overwriting the standard behaviour of the system that by default create a new task for each new insertion?
Thanks all
Paolo

Hi Naveen
thank you for your prompt reply.
The issue that I want to solve is that some organization unit (not all) must be flagged for an external export to another system, depending on some characteristic of each org unit. I didn't find a similar attribute on standard field, so I thought to insert a common task to all the org units to export, so that this relation can serve as the missing attribute on org unit definition.
PP01 let me insert a task (type T, and not TS) on an org unit directly, so I want to know if I'm going to break some standard behaviour of SAP if I insert a task on OU.
Thank you
Paolo

How to force SQL*Loader to assign the same SYSDATE for all rows?

I want to use SQL*Loader to load some rows and a "SYSDATE" generated column, but making sure this date is THE SAME for all rows. I have seen that if I load HUNDREDS of rows there is a little difference between them (in terms of seconds). I guess it is "the moment each row entered the DB", but I need the same value for all rows (preferably, "the moment SQL*Loader was launched"). Is there any way to achieve this?
Thank you very much.

Hello user2393320.
Given some thought, using a date value to identify all records from a single load isn't very wise.
Are you able to create a procedure on the database that could be executed during SQL*Loader's execution? If so, you could develop the procedure to take in the record number of the row being loaded as an input parameter and output this unique date value for all rows loaded. The procedure would need to store the date value in a table when the first row is being loaded and return the stored date value as its output. This obviously assumes that only one sqlldr session is running at any time.
I highly recommend using a numeric sequence in the control file instead of a date to identify each file load:
, file_load_seq SEQUENCE(MAX, 1)
Another approach would be to load the record number being loaded in addition to the sysdate:
, record_number RECNUM
Hope this helps,
Luke

How to use the same component in different applications

How to use the same keypair for both encrypt/decryprt-SunPKCS#11

Dear All,
Subject: To access iKey 2032 token, to retrieve public/private key from iKey 2032 token using pkcs#11 in sdk1.5, to encrypt/decrypt files.
When I separate the encrypt and decrypt part of java program, encryption program works well, whereas decryption program does not decrypt anything in the decrypt file (But there is no error). I printed out the public and private key in both encrypt and decrypt part of java program, its displayed differently::

I suspect that every time program generates different set of key, therefore we need to store the generated key during encryption part (i believe it is to be in the keystore) and to use the same for decryption part. Could you please give me a tips how to do this?

It occurs to me often that I use the same element in different photoshop files, a header or footer shown in the example below. So when the footer changes in one document, I need to change this footer in every other single document.
Is there a possibility to use some kind of template, one single document, that can be placed in different files , which is still editable afterwards?
Thanks in advance.
I'm using Photoshop CS6

In a single document you can have several pages and these pages may have headers and footers that share smart objects. If you replace the contents of the an embedded smart object on one page page that is shared on an other page the pages you will see both pages contents are changed. For they share the common object. It is also possibly to have independent smart object layers. It depends how you create the layers in the single document.
Example one sharing a smart object hi-light a smart object layer and use menu layer>Duplicate Layer... This will create a second smart object layer that share a common smart object. Each layer has is own associated transform. Do it again and you will have three layers the share a common smart object. So you can use each layer associated transform to position and size the layers contents. Make a picture package for example. When you hi-light any of the three smart layers and you use menu Layer>Smart Objects>Replace Contents... all three layers contents will be replace with the new smart object. Care must be taken to replace the smart object with an identical size object for only the object is replaced the three associated transform for the three layers are not replaced or changed.
Example two independent smart objects hi-light a smart object layer and use menu layer>Smart Objects>New Smart Object via Copy. This will create a second smart object layer that has it own embedded smart object copy. Do it again and you will have three all have independent embedded smart object that are identical. However they do not have to remain identical. For example if the first smart object layer was created by using ACR to open a RAW file as a smart object layer the embedded object is a copy of the raw file and its associated RAW conversion settings. Double clicking on one of the smart object layers and you will see ACR open on its embedded RAW file with the embedded RAW conversion setting. Changing these settings will update the layer smart object content with new ACR setting and pixel when you click OK in ACR. Repeat for the third and you will find you have three different raw conversions in Photoshop you can mask and blend together to bring out detail.
I think what your missing is that a smart object contains a copy of the original object. Changing the original after creating a smart object layer in document will not effect the smart object layer at all. Its independant from the original having a copy of the original. Only changes to the smart object layer and its embedded smart object effect smart object layers.

Help! Can't figure out how to store the same photo in different events

I know that this is just a user error problem, but I can't figure out how to store multiple versions of the same photo in different events. For example, I use Aperture as my main photo library, so I have a big folder set-up by year and then by events within those years to organize and maintain my library. I'm currently working on a project where I would like to pull out certain pictures for other uses. I tried creating new events and then moving the pictures to those events (like I would have in iPhoto) expecting for a new version of the picture to be deposited in the new event. That didn't work - it moved the picture out of my "main library" folder and as far as I can see it now only exists in the new event. Next, I tried creating "new versions" of the pictures I wanted to move and then just selecting those and moving them. In one folder I selected three photos, clicked "New Versions", then in the browser display I could see two of each picture (for a total of six), I selected ONE of each photo and moved those three to the new event. At which point all six disappear from the "main library" and end up in my new event. I don't understand why that happens. Currently the only way I've been able to do what I need to do is by using the flag field, but as far as I can tell there is only one of those - it's on or off that is really not serving my purpose. What do I need to do???

Like Jim said, you most likely want Albums for what you describe. Albums simply consist of "pointers" to a single compilation of image data. Albums can be created and deleted at will, because they are just pointers; an important concept.
Also learn to use Keywords - and unlearn "folder" organization, which is not the way digital asset management works. The power of Albums and Keywords is huge once we lose the film-think of folders organization.

How do use the same crop for multiple images.

I have a number of images that I want to use the same crop on. Instead of go through the whole slow process for each image is there a way to use the same crop for all of the images?
And in iPhoto there was a way to copy the adjustment settings to multiple images, I can't see how to do that in aperture.

Use the "Lift&Stamp" tool:
Crop one image.
Lift the crop using the "Lift" tool.
Select the other images.
Stamp the crop adjustment to all of them.
But caution: By default "Lift" will copy all Metadata tags and all adjustments, but the gps data. If you only want to transfer the cropping rectangle, deselect all lifted items but the crop adjustment before stamping.

Can you change rollover text in the same slice for different triggers?

Hi, I haven't used Fireworks since version 3, which was about 6 years ago, when I dabbled in web development. My past has come back to haunt me, and I need to make a fairly simple website pretty quickly for my boss. I've got myself CS4, and now that I've figured out that you can't use buttons for disjoint rollovers, I'm starting to make progress...
What I want to achieve, is that there are 6 'buttons' on my page, which when you rollover them will display text in a box to the side. I would use separate boxes for each button, but there isn't enough space on the page, as there is quite a lot of text, so I would like to use a box in the same place to display any of the 6 texts, depending on which button is rolled over. Can this be done?
I probably haven't quite got my head round layers, and this may be very simple, but could someone please point me in the right direction, even if it is a link to the right bit on product help?
Because the button disjoint rollover doesn't work, I have created 6 slices for the triggers. I tried hotspots first, but couldn't use them as I also want a rollover live filter effect on the trigger.

Yes, you can trigger different slice contents on rollover from multiple other slices.
It's easier to show than describe, so here is a sample file that does what I think you're looking for:
(1) six buttons
(2) each button has unique text
(3) each button has a rollover state
(4) unique text is displayed in the same place for each button on rollover
Hope this helps!

There is a User template in the System folder. I can't remember where, and I don't know how to edit the contents of that user template.
