How to setup costing by location

Hi all,
Could please guide me on the most effective way of setting up costing by location. We have around 4000 employees an about 100+ locations with each locations having itsown account numbers for all elements. I was told that i had to create as many element links as the number of locations. So if i have 10 elements then that's a lot of links to create. Can someone please advise me on the most effcient way to achieve this.
Any suggestion will be greatly appreciated

Hi
Costing can be defined in the following levels:
1. Payroll
2. Element Link
3. Organization
4. Assignment
5. Element Entry
Each successive level has higher precedence than the previous, ie if any data is entered a particular level, then it overrides the previous level data. Costing is usually done at Element Link level. However, it solely depends on the business requirement.
You have to map the segments of Cost Allocation Flexfield with the segments of Accounting Flexfield. This is done at HRMS Manager -> Payroll -> GL Flexfield Map. This has to be done for each payroll defined.
Hope This Helps

  • How to setup Cost Centres driven purchasing approval Hierarchy

    Hi Guys,
    My client has a Cost Centre set as a segment of their Key Flexfield
    Every Approver has cost centre limited approval limit attached
    Eg:
    Approver AAA can approve upto 100$ for cost centre 1111 only
    Approver BBB can approve upto 200$ for cost centre 2222 only
    Approver CCC can approve upto 200$ for cost centre 1111 only
    Required:
    When Requester creates a requisition for a certain cost centre (ie cost centre 1111), oracle should build an approval list based on approval limits.
    In our example:
    Requestor creates requisition for 150$ for cost centre 1111
    Generated Approval List: Approver AAA -> Approver CCC
    Any ideas?
    Thanks,
    Iana

    Thanks Sandeep!
    My problem is not how to define approval groups (this will work!), but how to generate an approval list (or how to setup hierarchy)
    Approval list should be generated from those people who can approve my cc, not my next in line manager
    Eg:
    when I create Req for cc 1111,
    My approval list shd be: Approver AAA -> Approver CCC
    when I create Req for cc 222,
    My approval list shd be: Approver BBB
    One solution can be to create a separate hierarchy for each CC range (ie Marketing, IT, etc) and let requestor to choose the correct hierarchy from LOV. The problem here will be that multiple hierarchies are difficult to maintain. For example, if the position for Deputy CFO changes, I have to adjust each hierarchy

  • 1 How to setup new company name   2 How to setup row, rock and bin

    Hi,
    Anybody who can help me how to setup new company.
    And also how to setup row, rock and bin because we need to assign a location for our spare parts inventory.
    Thanks in advance.

    Row/rack/bin sounds like an inventory system. For a simple system you might want to build your own from scratch, but for even a mid-sized company you really want a shrink-wrapped solution -- i.e. Oracle apps or SAP.
    You don't want to be figuring out how to model material transactions, move orders, etc. Nor do you probably want to dive into various cost accounting options.

  • How can I remove the Location column from the search results in a .chm file?

    How can I remove the Location column from the search results in a .chm file?
    I generated the file in Robohelp HTML 9.
    As far as I know it's used when you've combined more than one source into the final help file. It is possible (though I don't remember doing it) that I did that once a couple of years ago but now I'm only using one source - the project that's generating the .chm.
    Can anyone tell me how I can remove it?
    Thanks

    In Project Setup look at the Window properties. I think you will find Advanced Search is ticked.

  • How to setup the Airport Extreme for PSP?

    Can anyone tell me how to setup the Airport Extreme for PSP? I have been searching the Discussions but none of the posting seems to explain detail enough. A step by step guide would be very appreciated. Thanks.
    PowerBook G4   Mac OS X (10.4.3)  

    Sorry, I forgot to mention a few points:
    1) I don't have the Airport Extreme base station;
    2) My PowerBook is connect to the internet thru wired connection with the Built-in Ethernet;
    3) The Airport is turned on, but my PSP's scan cannot locate the PowerBook at all (while it find someone else's network)
    So, I wonder if I can just connect my PSP to the built-in Airport in the PowerBook directly. So that I can have internet access on my PSP.

  • How to setup a Seamless Transaction Gateway with PayPal (Australia Only)

    I've been working with the team at PayPal to allow BC Partners to set up a cost effective way to setup a Seamless Transaction Shopping Cart Process on their BC eCommerce website without the need for a 3rd Party Merchant Provider like eWay or Secure Pay or their bank. This is designed for entry level businesses who want to control their setup costs and keep all funds in one place (PayPal).
    Currently BC doesn't support Paypal's Payments Pro plan in Australia so you are limited with either a non-seamless payment process or using a 3rd Party Merchant provider with can be costly.
    Without going into too much detail, the setup on PayPal's side is a mixture of a couple of plans, and is a little complicated however through our discussions we come to an arrangement of any additional fee's associated with the setup being waived since this is more so of a technical workaround than anything else.
    Basically PayPal is the merchant provider, and the customer doesn't leave your website when making a purchase through the Shopping Cart. The setup is only $25/month plus transaction fees of between 1.1 to 2.4% + 30 cents depending on the number of payments (this is just an initial guide and confirmed on your discussion with the PayPal).
    Because the setup involves quite a few steps and departments I've arranged a contact that will fast track this process and is familiar with this unique setup.
    How to setup PayPal for a Seamless Transaction Process
    Sign up for PayPal Business account  Timeframe: <20 minutes
    Email Peter [email protected] or phone (02) 8288 0333. CC me [email protected] or mention my name so he can correctly setup the process and apply the discounted pricing.
    Prepare for the Verification process for the PayPal account (Proof of ID, Proof of Address, Business documents etc).
    Wait for Account Verification. You will be informed to setup both PayFlow Pro* and Website Payments Pro (*the PayFlow payment will be waived as mentioned previously). Timeframe: up to 5 business days depending on swift supply of required documentation.
    Wait for your Billing Agreement for Website Payments Pro once application has been approved. Sometimes they will receive a phone call to verify details of the application. Timeframe: Up to 72 hours
    Login into your PayPal account to accept the Billing Agreement.
    Notify Peter once the Billing Agreement has been accepted so your PayFlow Pro can be linked to your Website Payments Pro
    Login into your Business Catalyst Website and navigate e-Commerce > Payment Gateways
    Select PayPal PayFlow Payment Gateway (..,AU, ..)
    Enter your Username, PayPal Password, and add VSA as the Partner
    Setting up PayPal Payments
    If you also want to make payments via PayPal (ie, with the customers Pay Pal account) you can continue with setting up the PayPal Website Standard secure with your PayPal Customer ID and your PDT Token which you'll need to setup in your PayPal Account.
    If you have any questions give me or Peter an email. I'll continue to update this document as I go.
    Please note this setup is current for Australian Pay Pal Customers only. This process does not support re-occurring billing.

    Dennis, sounds like you are having issues connecting to your network. Here is what we are going to do. 
    On your first question,  and second question for that matter, I would suggest using a WPA password. Our printers doe not associate with the other types as well as WPA. You should be able to do that, though I have not personally set up a router that way to have experience in how it will react with the networked devices. As for the issues you are having, once the settings are all in the correct order I am going to suggest we connect the printer to the network through the computer. 
    What you will do is install the printer using a USB connection, then re-run the setup software. Here there should be an option for USB to  Wireless. This will be the easiest way to be sure that all the settings are correctly transferred over.

  • How to Setup Flash Builder ActionScript only project for iPad?

    Hello!
    Can someone give a short guide on how to setup an ActionScript only prject in flash builder such that it can be compiled using adt and deployed to the iPad?
    i created successfully iphone games using FlashIDE and PFI.
    now I'd like to create an iPad app using Flash Builder (ActionScript only). but I fail to load the compiled IPA to the ipad, keep getting different errormessages thus i think something with my projectsetup is wrong

    Yes, in Terminal you type a single line which is made from the path to the adt application, some parameters, and paths to other documents. Here's the full list of things:
    /Location/to/AdobeAIRSDK_2.6/bin/adt
    -package
    -target ipa-test
    -provisioning-profile /Location/to/Provision.mobileprovision
    -storetype pkcs12
    -keystore /Location/to/Certificates.p12
    -storepass password
    NameOfApp.ipa ApplicationDescriptor-app.xml
    -C /Location/to/swf  NameOfApp.swf
    splashscreens
    icons
    That "-C" line is clever, it does a directory change to the folder you give it, so after the -C /location/to/swf part it will then look in that same folder for other documents, and for where to build the IPA file.

  • How to setup oracle database to archivelog mode and auto delete ?

    Oracle 11g R2
    - How to setup database to archive log mode and have oracle only save 24 hours of archive logs
    and delete the rest. So at any given time I will have only 24 hours of archive log and not more.
    So only 1 day of archive logs.
    - Let me know the database parameters I need to setup to accomplish this.
    - I don't want to use the RMAN
    - I am not setting up the database to archive log mode for recovery purpose. I am setting up archive log mode
    so we can use the log miner tool to dig up achives to see log activity for any performance & tuning.

    Thanks everyone for there responses.
    I need to rephrase and explain everyone as what I wanted to do exactly. This might help everyone understand and suggest me.
    We have oracle database 11g r2. Its a test database. Nothing is critical. We use EXPDP utility to backup the entire database every night. Which is enough for us to recover incase something happens. Even if we loose some data. That's fine.
    We are testing our web application on this oracle test database for performance & tuning.
    One thing we have noticed is that the redo logs are switching very frequently. 50MB each log file and there are 5 logs. each log switches every 40 seconds. So we wanted to see what is getting written in this redo logs. We wanted to use the LOG MINER tool in OEM to read the logs. It needed our database to be setup in archive log mode. So the log miner can read the archive logs and show us the sql's within the archive logs.
    Now when we setup the archive log mode on our database. By default the archive logs destination was set to flash recovery area ( may be oracle default archive log location is flash recovery area folder).
    We have setup the db_recovery_file_dest_size to 100GB. Now within 2 days we have filled up the flash recovery area folder. Database was frozen. Then we realized that its because oracle couldn't write archive logs. Because it reached the 100GB. Then we physically deleted files in the flash recovery area folder. Thinking it would help us start the frozen oracle database. But it didn't . The we realized that we are doing something wrong. As Oracle does not know that at OS level we deleted the files. Then temporarily we changed the db_recovery_file_dest_size to 130GB and were able to start the oracle database. Later we turned OFF the archive log mode.
    Being a rookie DBA we would have not read something properly.
    Finally:
    We wanted to know how to always keep only 1 day of archive logs (only for our performance tuning ) and not more than that. All we need this 1 day of archive logs is to use the log miner to read them. Backup is NOT our priority here. Only be able to read the archive logs from LOG MINER is PRIORITY.
    Correct me if I am wrong.Okay, so its making much more sense now, thanks for explaining your requirement.
    Database won't honor anything that you would do over the o/s without telling it. Your deletion of the archive log from the o/s location is NOT updated in the control file of the database and that's why, even when you had deleted the entire 100GB , from the db perspective, the space was still marked as used. This is the same which would happen even if you would increase the space from 100gb to whatever size as well. To delete the space, you would need to update the database's control file and that you can do from RMAN using its two commands , crosscheck backup following with deleted expired backup . The first command would find that which database backup files are NOT on the o/s which are shown in the control file and would mark all of them as expired. The second command would simply delete those expired files. This would update the control file and you would have your 100gb or whatever space, given back to you.
    To keep the archive logs of just one day, set up that Retention Policy for RMAN to either number of copies using the Redundancy option(default and set to 1) or Recovery Window. I believe for you Redundancy would be a suitable choice but you can have a read and play around with it. Setting it up would mark the files as Obsoleted and finally, you can write a small RMAN script to delete those obsoleted files.
    Now, what I don't understand is that why you want to keep on generating the archive logs just for the log miner? If you would have generated them once and figure out the reason for extensive redo generation(did you try increasing the redo log file size, 50mb seems to be smallish) , I don't think that there is any reason to keep on generating the archive logs still .
    And last part, for your question asked about that whether we can use RMAN to put the db in the archive log and is it a backup tool, yes and yes.

  • How to setup OWF and 2 OWB repositories in 1 database

    I have 2 OWB repositories in 1 database, 1 for development (OWBOWN_D schema) and 1 for testing (OWBOWN_T).
    In the same database I have a OWF repository (OWF_MGR schema).
    The objects in the development and test OWB repository have the same names, including the workflow package names.
    In both OWB-repositories OWF_MGR is referenced in the Oracle Workflow location.
    The problem is that both repositories create a synonym <workflow package name>WBRTI_WORKFLOW_UTIL in OWF_MGR schema. The one that is created as last (executed by OWBOWN_T) overwrites the first one. So the process flows in the workflow package from OWNOWN_D gives errors and can not be executed.
    My first thought to solve this, was installing OWF twice. But because the OWF-installation creates public synonyms for the OWF-schema this also good give problems.
    Has anyone a suggestion how to setup 2 OWB repositories together with the possibility to use ProcessFlow packages with the same name in both repositories and the 2 OWB repositories and 1 or 2 OWF-repositories installed in 1 database?
    Thanks
    Wilfried

    Hi,
    i think that for ou to solve this problem you will have to create an additional OWF schema, or create two different packages and duplicate the process flows, this will sove your problem.
    Since OWB deploys all mappings in a package even if you want to deploy just one i usually use a sandbox package where i test my process flow before adding it to the production package and there are cases when i have a process flow name repeated but in two different packages, so this will work.
    Hope this helps.
    Cheers

  • How to setup stack files on desktop

    I just got my first macpro and accidently blew away my stacked files that were located on bottom rgt corner of screen. could not find in trash so do not know where it went ... just know that while dragging this stack across screen and released it I saw a cloud icon then it was gone. anyone know how i can get it back or how to setup a stack again...should be easy?

    Items in the Dock are just aliases (shortcuts) to the actual files/folders somewhere on the computer. I can't remember exactly what is on the right side by default, but probably the Downloads folder or the Documents folder.
    If you want a stack in the Dock, just drag a folder from the Finder to the Dock and the OS will make an alias to the folder in the Dock. When you drag off the dock, you are deleting the alias to the item. if you control-click or click on hold on the folder in the Dock, you can choose the display options that you want it to have.
    Stacks only exist in the Dock. You can't move them to the Desktop.
    If you want an alias to a particular folder on your Desktop, cmdoptdrag the folder to the desktop. While you are dragging you will see the alias badge (a swooped arrow) indicating you will create an alias, not move the file/folder. Keeping things on the desktop takes up lots more resources than other folders, so it is not a good idea to put a lot of items there.

  • How to setup antispam correctly?

    I set anti-spam to true and do not fill in any of the rejectdomains, rejectsenders or rejectrecipients.
    when i use telent <ip> 25 to connect the smtp_in serivice
    it's failed.
    550 5.7.1 Spam check failed for your IP address
    If I set anitspam to false.It's all ok.
    why?
    And how to setup antispam correctly?

    I have struggled somewhat with the antispam settings, and find it a little confusing. Raffa is right when it comes to reverse DNS lookup. Reverse DNS must be configured by the originating ISP (where the physical connection goes), and has nothing to do with the "normal" DNS set up administered by the registrar for the domain name.
    This is possible when you know what network the user connects from. I find this to be a problem for users whith å portable PC connecting from different locations (home/office/travel), as normal user identification fails with the "Spam check failed for your IP address" error message.
    Has anyone successfully set up an OCS SMTP_IN that correctly allows users to send mail through this SMTP with the SPAM-check enabled? The documents in Metalink does not address my problem, as far as I can see.
