If You Could Give Creative Labs' Developers an Idea For Features

What feature(s) would you try to talk them into putting into their next player?I'd say keep it around the size of the vision:M, the same look, but include a TV tunor, bluetooth connectivity (for bluetooth wireless headphones), put it in 30 and 60 gig sizes, and call it the "Zen Ultimate"?do you really think ipod could compete with a player like that?

yeah wireless headphones will be great. I just think creative should implement new features and beat iPod to the punch, have wireless bluetooth technology BUILT INTO the unit, that way, you won't have to worry about that bluetooth adapter hangin off your player.

The Glu Customer Care answer my question;
Hello, and thank you for contacting Glu Mobile Customer Care
The game you mentioned does not save online. If you have made a backup using "iCloud" or "iTunes backup" then you may be able to restore to that last save point on your device which will include whatever you had for currency at the time when the save was created.
Unfortunately, we do not have a way to restore game progress, this is done by the user on the device itself using the backup and restore method for the entire device.
If you have not performed a backup save for your device before this problem happened and you have lost currency from purchases, please contact the iTunes store customer service to inquire about your purchase and request help regarding this loss of currency issue.. Apple does not allow developers to handle billing issues.
If you get an answer saying that In-App purchases are the responsibility of the developer, please insist that they assist you as we have no way of accessing their purchase records. We are the developer and do not have access to any account or billing information on the iTunes App Store.
We hope this information assists you and we sincerely apologize for the inconvenience.
Regards,
Glu Mobile Customer Care

We are fellow users here on these forums, you're not talking to iTunes Support. You say that you used the pack that you bought and that it then ran out - does that mean that you used it all up ? If you didn't use it all up but your game lost the purchase then you can try the 'report a problem' page to contact iTunes Support : http://reportaproblem.apple.com
If the 'report a problem' link doesn't work then you can try contacting iTunes support via this page : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/- click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page, then Purchases, Billing & Redemption

LuigiWelcome.
My dear friend, please don't take my words personally. If you have any alternative easy process then you should go for that. Always try to achieve this with a Single SQL. If you cannot then only you should go for PL/SQL and if you are restricted there due to some non availability feature then you can go for Java Based Procedure.
Even if you are using PL/SQL, don't make simple thing complicated. Because, that may hamper your performance, too.
And, finally it will be wise to decide and design your PL/SQL solution in a simpler manner rather than making things more complicated way. Results may not only increase the overhead but also create a maintenance problem in future of that coding.
Hope you get my idea.
My best wishes. :)

Creative labs new tech 'support' for Austra

Up until last week, I'd been dealing with the australian branch of crati've labs tech support. It appears over the last week or so theres been a changeover and its been sourced to singapore or something. I'd just like to say how utterly useless its been. I've been dealing with a terrible phone line, through which it is incredibly hard to understand anything i hear, that is sokmething i could overcome, but, the next problem is the operators.
Many of them cannot understand me, at all, now, I'm the first to admit I have somewhat of an Australain accent, its nothing extreme though, and I'm told I'm quite well spoken. These guys in some instances cannot udnerstand a word I am saying, in other instances they do sort of get me, but, when it comes to giving out say, an email address, are totally lost.
Yesterday I spent, oh, 5 minutes, trying to tell this guy that my last name, was spelt like this 'mcmahon', not like this m3mahon. It seems C and 3 are not easy to seperate. Not even giving a C for Cat, or C for Congo could help matters. I did manage to give out a phone number eventually, but still, no good.
All I was chasing up was the cost of a repair for my zen touch, the touch pad has gone haywire. A week or so ago I dealt with the aussie service center, and, they informed me of the cost, faxed me out a form to fill out, to start off the repair and I was good to go. I misplaced the repair cost, so, I thought it would be easy to chase this up. No way, no one in the new help center had a clue what i was talking about, even once i got past the enormous and extremly frustrating language barrier.
Just letting you know creative that unfortunately, this is the last straw. Your products are good, but, they arn't that good.Message Edited by macka_x on 03-07-200607:32 PM

Creative Labs Firmware Update: Zen Touch Overv

This message is to give Creative Labs a clear overview of what is missing/needs updating in the next firmware download.
) Touch Pad Sensitivity- The Touch Pad sensitivity settings need to be changed to provide a slower scrolling speed.
2) EAX Sound Features- Including EAX support just like in Xtra models.
3) Volume Synchronization- The ability to apply the same volume to all music.
I think all Creative Zen Touch users would have to agree that these are most important things to be updated.
Yes, it is possible to adjust to the sensitivity of the scroll pad, however for new users is somewhat a disappointment. Most Zen Touch users would agree that the Touch Pad is over sensiti've and that such a problem is one of the reasons users buy the iPod. Based on the reviews which potential consumers use to decide on a purchase the Zen Touch loses points to the iPod for having the over sensiti've Touch Pad. The comparison was very close and the Zen Touch lost by fraction of points which can easily be solved with an update.
The comparison result can be found here: http://www.mp3.com/iPod+vs.+Zen+Touch/stories/090.html
The Zen Touch lost by only 3 points, however the Zen Touch as everything over the iPod besides the little things such as the style, and clearly the Touch Pad.
The EAX feature is highly supported by Zen Touch users and more information an be found here:
http://forums.creative.com/creativel...&message.id=88
Lastly, another key features that was included on the Xtra models, but not included in the Touch was the Volume Synchronization. This is key for Ripped and Download music. The Ripping volume is often times different from volume that is provided by the MP3 download sites. This is another feature that is worthy of upgrade.
Creative has a lot of potential right now, mainly because the features on the Zen Touch outperform the iPod yet Apple still has the market on MP3 Players. It would not hurt at all to update these features mainly because the iPod has been around longer so they obviously had more time to perfect the MP3 Player.
Thus, I encourage Creative Labs to take a lead on the MP3 market by releasing the next firmware with these updated features.
No matter how you look at it the Zen Touch should be leading the MP3 market.
With these small updates I think more consumers will purchase these players, thus increasing Creative revenue.
Please Creative you have heard loyal customers speak out, now it would be a great time to show loyalty and boost your customer service reputation from great to the best support.
If anyone agrees or support these firmware updates please post here.
Sincerely,
-Coolrulez
<EM>Thank you for listening and please update me on any confirmated releases of a firmware update.</EM>

well, I have to disagree with #3. You should actually be able to set the Sync Properties on the Program you use to put music onto the Touch anyhow. the Easiest way to do this without this, is putting all music in the same format, and in the same size. Unless the recording/file is already bad, that should do you well. I use WMP0 and all my files were ripped in the same Quality, and if not, they were automatically converted to fit the specifications I chose, which was WMA-28KBPS. And mostly it all sounds the same. Of course, the classical music I listen to quieter than the Rock I listen to, but thats normal.

Creative Labs: A Boy's St

Hi everyone,
I came to these forums after I heard of the recent developments from Creative Labs. After reading what many people wrote, I?thought I would share?the story of how Creative became a part of my life.
I was twelve years old when I first learned of Creative. I had saved up enough money over a year and a half?and finally bought a 486 DX-2 50Mhz computer. I cannot tell you how many lawns I mowed and dri'veways I shoveled. Take a minute to remember what prices were like in the early 990s and you'll understand why it took so long. I would have been able to get a sound card included with the computer had I saved for another month or two, but I was twelve - I wasn't going to wait anymore!
Two?months after that purchase, I had saved up enough money to buy a sound card and speakers. Finally my system would be complete!? I started looking for a sound card and heard from many people that SoundBlasters were the only kind I should consider. Thus, the SoundBlaster 6 was my first sound card. Indeed, it was the first component I ever installed in a computer and it went flawlessly.
Because "Soundblaster" compatibility was important back then, I purchased only Creative products. Even as a teenager, I noticed the bloatware that was starting to get bundled with the drivers. I also noticed that the quality of the drivers was deteriorating, but I was always able to make them work well most of the time. There were a few blue screens of death, but I just shrugged and rebooted.
As we approach the present, it is clear to me the trend I noticed has reached a breaking point. I was stunned when I saw that Creative had the nerve to tell someone who was doing their job for them to stop. For this reason, my sound card has been placed in the garbage and I am using the onboard audio included with my Shuttle system. On a side note, installing those drivers was a cakewalk compared to some of the installations I went through with Creative products.
It is obvious to me, someone who has only been without a Creative sound card for two months, that the company either has no idea what they are doing or does not care. I will not purchase another Creative product again, nor recommend that anyone do so, until new management is present and is turning the company around. This includes making higher quality, less bloated, more stable drivers that activate all of the features present on the card and work on all operating system in the same way.
I have signed the petition (link below), and encourage people to do the same. I know perfectly well that a petition is unlikely to change the policies of management, but it is at the very least one more way to make my displeasure heard. I am number 26 on the petition, and I hope many more will sign so that the extent of their customers' displeasure becomes known.
That is my Creative story, and it is a sad one. I am sad to see a company so capable of producing excellent hardware fall into the trap that is poor management.
To Creative: Please turn around your company and realize that hardware and software must work together seamlessly. Please reorganize your management team and put in place individuals who understand how to build relationships with customers. Please realize that people who pay you money have taken the time to earn it and are worthy of higher levels of support for their products. And finally, please recognize that punishing a member of the community who picked up slack where you left off is a horrendous way to build customer relationshi
ps.
Indeed, that is how you are losing mine.
I wish everyone on here the best, and thank you for reading this little story. I was told growing up that words can move mountains, so I encourage everyone to leave some words of their own.
Thank you,
Tim

Creative was infringing upon Aureal's patents, not the other way around. Yet is was Creative who sued Aureal for patent infringement.
See : http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aureal
On March 5th, 998, [url="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Creative_Labs">Creative Labs[/url] sued Aureal for patent infringement. Aureal countersued because they believed Creative was guilty of patent infringement. After numerous lawsuits Aureal won a favorable ruling in December 999, which vindicated Aureal from these patent infringement claims, but the legal costs were too high and Aureal filed for [url="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bankruptcy">bankruptcy[/url]. On September 2st, 2000, Creative acquired Aureal's assets from its [url="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bankruptcy_trustee">bankruptcy trustee[/url] for US$ 32 million. The purchase included patents, trademarks, other property, as well as a release to Creative from any infringement by Creative of Aureal's intellectual property including [url="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/A3D">A3D[/url]. The purchase effecti'vely eliminated Creative's only competition in the gaming audio market. It also eliminated any requirements for Creative to pay past or future royalties as well as damages for products which incorporated Aureal's technology.
See : http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Soundstorm
[url="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Creative_Technology">Creative's[/url] acquisition of [url="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sensaura">Sensaura[/url] in late 2003 put a halt to development of drivers for Sensaura-based sound hardware, including the code that ran on the SoundStorm APU. Further development of SoundStorm hardware and drivers would have been considerably more costly for Nvidia without middleware support from Sensaura.

Another CRM Forum where you could discuss about your issues !!!!!

Another SAP Forum where you could discuss about your issues and cookbooks for various SAP modules -
http://sapcookbook.com/sapcookbook.com/forum/.
There are plenty of users (many of them are very experienced) there as well to discuss your issues.
The idea is not to affect SDN ,but to increase the SAP knowledge among all its users and newcomers and to help each other. Sometimes what i have seen is that people don't have access to SDN(because of several reasons), so they don't get a chance to get involved here. You can find those experts/users at SAPCOOKBOOK forums.

CAN YOU PLEASE GIVE INFORMATION RELATED TO CIN INFORMATION

hi gurus,
Can any body provide information about the Setoff excise duties in the country india version.
can any provide detial information about Excise Transaction type
Thanks in advance
Regards,
ch.srinivas

Hi,
Excise Invoice:--
J1ID for configuration and J1IIN, J2I7, J1I5, J1I5, J2I6, J1IP for creating, extracting and printing excise invoice
Basically Cin is divided in to two types:
1. TAXINJ - Is a Routine Based that is used in the condition types. it will work on the logic what ever is there in the Routine.
2. TAXINN: - Is a condition Record based. Means we have to create condition records for each and every condition type that you are going to use in the Pricing Procedure.
Since Version 4.7 this TAXINN came into picture and start using this.
And one of the important points is since 4.6 c CIN comes a separate package. But after introduction of 4.7 Version, CIN is coming the SAP Package itself and even in the Customer Master Record also we will find the CIN Icon.
Basically 4 types of Pricing Procedures are used in CIN and are as follows:
1.JDEPOT - Depot Sales
2.JEXPOR - Export Sales
3.JFACT - Factory Sales
4.JSTKTR - Stock Transfer
Country Version India comes with four pricing procedures as follows:
JINFAC (Sales from manufacturing plants)
JINEXP (Export sales)
JINDEP (Sales from depots)
JINSTK (Stock transfers

Recommendation
Under normal circumstances, excise authorities require every business to maintain only one set of excise registers and one set of accounts. But through exemption from the authorities, multiple books can be maintained.
If your company has only one set of excise registers, then you need to maintain only one excise group.
Activities
1. Create one excise group for each set of registers that you need to keep.
1. Assign the excise groups to plants.
2. Maintain whether this Excise group is for a depot or not.
3. If you receive only one consignment for an Excise challan then you can leave GR's per EI as blank. If you receive multiple GR's for a given Excise challan and would like to avail multiple credit mark the GRs per EI as 'Multiple GR's for one excise invoice, multiple credit'. Alternatively if you want to avail the credit only after all the goods receipts have been made mark it as ' Multiple GR for one excise invoice, single credit'.
4. If you want to automatically create Excise invoice during Sales cycle at the time of billing the tick the indicator 'Create EI'
5. During depot sales if you do not want to do RG23D selection and posting separately and would like to complete RG23D selection in one step mark the indicator 'RG23D Auto post'. This will post the selected records into RG23D automatically. You cannot cancel the selection later.
6. If the indicator 'Default GR qty' is marked system will default the Excise challan quantity on to the Goods receipt if the Excise invoice number is given in the pop-up.
7. If the indicator 'Folio no creates' is marked system will generate Folio numbers for RG23D during receipt of excise invoice into depot.
8. 'Automatic posting' when ticked will post the Excise invoice other movements automatically along with creation in single step.
9. 'Create Part1 for Block Stock' when marked will create a Part1 during the receipt of material into Blocked stock.
10. 'Create Part1 for STO' when marked will create a Part1 during the receipt of material through inter plant transfers.
11. 'Create Part1 for consumption stock' when marked will create a Part1 during the receipt of material into consumption stock.
Excise Group
Governs which set of excise registers a business transaction will be included in.
Following is the relation between excise group, plant and registration.
Dependencies
In define excise groups in Customizing.
Then, in transactions involving excise duty, for example, when you post a vendor's excise invoice, you specify which excise group you are using. This information tells the system which G/L accounts to post the excise to.
At the end of the period, when you come to prepare your excise registers, you create different sets for each excise group.
Indicates that the plant in question is a depot.
Dependencies
Depots are required to prepare register RG 23D, and follow different procedures for goods receipt and invoice generation.
GR Per Excise Invoice
Multiple GR for one excise invoice , Multiple credit
Multiple GR for one excise invoice , Single Credit
Create Excise Invoice Automatically
Instructs the system to automatically create a Sales and Distribution (SD) excise invoice immediately you create a commercial invoice or a pro forma invoice.
The excise invoice is created in the background.
Dependencies
If you want to make use of this function, you must also define the default plant, excise group, and series groups in Customizing for Sales and Distribution (SD), by choosing Excise Group - Series Group Determination.
RG23D Sales Creation and posting option
RG23D Automatic Option if selected will create Depot excise invoice by posting the selection of excise invoices in single step.
If this is not selected then you need to separately do RG23D selection followed by PGI and then RG23D verification and posting.
If you need automatic posting of RG23D selection then the Post Goods Issue should have been completed before running RG23D selection.
Default excise qty in GR
If this indicator is ticked then while doing Goods Receipt using 'MB01' system will default the excise invoice quantity on to the Goods receipt document.
Folio number for depo
Posting
If this indicator is marked then while creating Excise invoice for other movements system automatically does the Verify and Post. You need not separately Post the excise invoice
Also we can set indicator for creation of part 1 for:
Blocked stock
Stock transport order
Consignment stock
Maintain Series Groups
Use
In this IMG activity, you define the different excise series groups within your company. Series groups allow you to maintain multiple number ranges for the outgoing excise documents.
Based on excise regulations and exemptions from the authorities you can maintain multiple number series for outgoing documents. But each of these series has to be declared to the excise authorities.
Activities
Define excise series groups based on type of outgoing document
Assign series group to excise registration ID
If no financial postings are required for an Excise invoice in this seris group then you tick the 'No utilization' indicator.
If the CENVAT has to be paid immediately and you need not wait for the Fort nightly payment then mark the 'Immediate Utilization' indicator.
Example
You could define two series groups, group 001 for excise invoices, and group 002 for 57 F4 documents.
No account postings for CENVAT in sales cycle
No utilization Flag
If you do not need any CENVAT utilization for an excise invoice but would like to just generate an excise invoice then you need to mark this indicator.
IF the flag is checked then system will create an Excise invoice in the given Series group but there will not be any account postings or Part2 postings.
Immediate Utilization of CENVAT
Specifies that when you create an excise invoice, the system immediately pays the amount from CENVAT and creates the Part II entry. Such invoices will not be listed for fortnightly utilization.
If you have both fortnightly and immediate utilization for the same excise group, the account determination within CIN IMG should point to the ED interim account.
Account determination for immediate payment will be done exactly the same as being done for fortnightly utilization program.
Maintain Excise Duty Indicators
Use
In this IMG activity; you maintain the excise duty indicators.
IMG > Logistics - General > Tax On Goods Movement > India > Basic Settings > Determination of Excise Duty >
Select Tax Calculation Procedure
Use
In this IMG activity, you specify which tax procedure you want to use for determining excise duties and sales taxes on input materials in India.
If you use condition-based excise determination, use a copy of the tax procedure TAXINN.
If you use formula-based excise determination, use a copy of the tax procedure TAXINJ.
This tax procedure also supports condition-based excise determination, so that you can work with both concurrently.
We strongly recommend that new customers use condition-based excise determination. Note that once you have started using a tax procedure, you cannot switch to another one, otherwise you will not be able to display old documents.
Maintain Excise Defaults
Use
In this IMG activity, you define which tax procedure and pricing condition types are used in calculating excise taxes using formula-based excise determination.
Activities
If you use condition-based excise determination, fill out the CVD cond. field and leave all the others blank.
If you use formula-based excise determination, fill out all of the fields as follows:
Enter the tax procedure and the pricing conditions that are relevant for excise tax processing.
Specify the purchasing and sales conditions types used for basic excise duty, additional excise duty, special excise duty, and cess.
Specify the conditions in the sales order that are used for excise rates.
Specify the countervailing duty condition type used for import purchase orders.

Condition-Based Excise Determination
Use
When you enter a purchasing document, for example, a purchase order, the R/3 System automatically calculates the applicable excise duties using the condition technique.
Features
The standard system comes with two tax calculation procedures. TAXINN is only supports condition-based excise determination, whereas TAXINJ supports condition-based excise determination and formula-based excise determination. Both tax procedures contain condition types that cover all of the excise duties and sales taxes applicable.
Since the exact rates of excise duty can vary on a large number of factors, such as which vendor you purchase a material from, or which chapter ID the vendor stocks the material under, you create condition records for every sort of excise duty.
When you come to enter a purchasing document, the system applies the excise duty at the rates you have entered in the condition records.
Activities
Customizing
IndiaMake for Logistics General, by choosing Taxes on Goodsthe settings in Customizing Basic Excise Duties Using Condition Technique and Movements Account Settings Determination.
These activities include one activity where you define a tax code for condition-based excise determination.
Master Data
Create condition records for all excise duties that apply, and enter the tax code for condition-based excise determination in each.
Day-to-Day Activities
When you enter a purchase order or other purchasing document, enter the tax code for condition-based excise determination in each line item. The system then calculates the excise duties using the condition records you have created.
When the ordered materials arrive, you post the goods receipt and the excise invoice. The system posts the excise duty to the appropriate accounts for deductible input taxes when you enter the excise invoice.
Creating Condition Records for Excise Duty
1. In the command field, enter FV11 and choose .
2. Enter the condition type that you want to create a condition record for and choose .
The Key Combination dialog box appears.
3. Select the combination of objects that you want to create the condition record for.
On the dialog box, Control Code means "chapter ID."
So, for example, to create a condition record for a tax that applies to a combination of country, plant, and chapter ID, select Country/Plant/Control Code.
4. Choose.
5. Enter data as required.
In the Tax Code field, enter the dummy tax code that you have defined.
6. Save the condition record.
Formula-Based Excise Determination
Use
When you execute a business transaction involving materials that are subject to excise duty, the system automatically calculates the duty for you.
Prerequisites
In order for the system to be able to determine which rate of excise duty to apply, you must have maintained all the data on the Maintenance screen, which you can MasterExcise Rate access from the SAP Easy Access screen by choosing Indirect Taxes Excise Rate Maintenance.Data
You maintain the following types of data:
Plant master data
You assign each of your plants an excise duty indicator. You can use the same indicator for all the plants with the same excise status from a legal point of view, such as all those that are in an exempt zone.
See also the information about manufacturers that are only entitled to deduct a certain portion of the duty (see Partial CENVAT Credit).
Vendor master data
For each of your vendors with the same excise status from a legal perspective, you define an excise duty indicator. You must also specify the vendor type for example, whether the vendor is a manufacturer, a depot, or a first-stage dealer. You must also stipulate if the vendor qualifies as a small-scale industry.
For each permutation of plant indicator and vendor indicator, you then create a final excise duty indicator.
Customer master data
similarly, you assign the same excise duty indicator to each of your customers that share the same legal excise status.
Again, for each permutation of plant indicator and customer indicator, you then create a final excise duty indicator.
Material master data
each material is assigned a chapter ID.
Excise tax rate
For every chapter ID and final excise duty indicator, you maintain the rate of excise duty.
If your business only qualifies for partial CENVAT credit, you must customize your system accordingly.
Activities
Let us consider an example to illustrate how the system determines which rate of excise duty to apply to a material. Assume you are posting a sale of ball bearings to a customer. The system automatically determines the rate of excise duty as follows:
1. Looks up the customer master data to see what status you have assigned the customer.
Let's assume you've assigned the customer status 3.
2. Looks up the plant master data to see what status you have assigned the plant.
Similarly, your plant has status 2.
3. The system looks up the table under Excise Indicator for Plant and Customer to see what the final excise duty indictor is for customer status 3 and plant status 2: It is 7.
4. The system determines the chapter ID of the ball bearing for the plant.
Lets assume the chapter ID at plant for the ball bearings is 1000.01.
5. Finally, the system looks up the table under Excise Tax Rate to see what rate of duty applies to chapter ID 1000.01 under status 7.
Define Tax Code for Purchasing Documents
Use: In this IMG activity, you define a tax code for the purposes of calculating excise duty when you enter purchasing documents.
Only carry out this activity if you use condition-based excise determination.
Activities: Create a new tax code, and set the tax code type to V (input tax). Do not make any other settings for it.
Assign Tax Code to Company Codes
Use
In this IMG activity, assign the tax code for purchasing documents to the company codes where it will be used.
Only carry out this activity if you use condition-based excise determination.
Classify Condition Types
Use
In this IMG activity, you specify which condition types you use for which sort of tax. Note that this only applies to condition types that you use with the new excise determination method.
The system uses this information when you create a document from another one. For example, when you enter an incoming excise invoice from a purchase order, or when you create an outgoing excise invoice from a sales order, the system determines the various excise duties in the excise invoice using the information that you have entered here.
In addition, when you create a purchasing document, the system only uses the condition types that you enter here.
For taxes on purchases, use the condition types contained in the tax procedure.
For taxes on sales, use the condition types contained in the pricing procedures.
Standard settings
The standard system comes with sample settings for the tax calculation procedures and pricing procedures.
Use these settings as a basis for your own.
IMG > Logistics - General > Tax on Goods Movement > India > Account Determination
Define G/L Accounts for Taxes
Use
In this IMG activity, you specify which G/L accounts you will use to record which taxes.
Requirements
you have set up G/L accounts for each of the processing keys listed below.
Activities
Assign an account to each of the following posting keys. The accounts for VS1, VS2, and VS3 are used as clearing accounts during excise invoice verification.
VS1 (basic excise duty)
VS2 (additional excise duty)
VS3 (special excise duty)
VS5 (sales tax setoff)
MWS (central sales tax)
MW3 (local sales tax)
ESA (service tax)
ESE (service tax expense)
Specify Excise Accounts per Excise Transaction
Use
In this IMG activity, you specify which excise accounts (for excise duty and CENVAT) are to be posted to for the various transaction types. Enter all the accounts that are affected by each transaction type.
If you use sub transaction types, enter the accounts for each sub transaction type as well.
Activities
Transaction type UTLZ is used for determining accounts only while posting excise JVs and also if the payment of excise duty has to be done fortnightly.
The fortnightly CENVAT payment utility picks up the credit side accounts from the transaction types of GRPO, EWPO, and TR6C for determining the CENVAT and PLA accounts. There is no separate transaction type for fortnightly payment.
Example
Excise TT DC ind Account name
GRPO CR CENVAT clearing account
GRPO CR RG 23 BED account
GRPO DR CENVAT on hld account
Specify G/L Accounts per Excise Transaction
Use
In this IMG activity, you assign the excise and CENVAT accounts to G/L accounts.
When you come to execute the various transactions, the system determines which G/L accounts to post to by looking at the:
Excise group
Company code
Chart of accounts
Furthermore, if you want separate account determination settings within an excise group, you can also use sub transaction types.
Requirements
You have already:
Defined the G/L accounts
Defined the excise groups
Maintained the transaction accounts
Activities
For each excise group, assign the excise and CENVAT accounts to G/L accounts. For most businesses, one set of accounts will suffice for all transactions.
Note
You need not remit the CENVAT to the excise department immediately, so maintain the credit account for transaction type DLFC as an excise duty interim account. This will be set off when you remit the duty.
Config setting needed to be done in order to get the Excise Details Screen in Material Master.
Even though this functionality is available in enterprise version, a small config step has to be made in Screen Sequences for Material Master.

Stuck In Rescue Mode (could someone from creative labs rep

No mattter what I do my mp3 returns to the rescue mode. When I go to format it says Harddisk Problem. I don't know how this happend or how to fix it could anyone tell me what I should?
Message Edited by Winter_wolfhnv on 03-2-2005 06:5 PM

I have a 5 month old Nomad Jukebox Zen Xtra that recently developed the same problem. I went through all the postings on this site and followed the link to www.nomadness.net. This is an excellent site. Check it out.
After a number of days of research here's the bottom-line:
> You can try the "Clean Up" option in Rescue Mode. Don't give up - let it run for a few hours, and then try to reformat. Some people report results after trying this 0+ times. (Unfortunately, it did not work for me.)
> You can try the "whack it" method. A number of people have recommeded this. (Unfortunately, it did not work for me.)
> You can send it in to Creative Labs for a repair. Very mixed reviews on this.
> You can go to www.nomadness.net and follow the link to www.blurbdesigns.com/ZenUpgrade and see how to replace the hard dri've yourself. This is what I'm doing. I opened up my Xtra, got the model number of the hard dri've, went to the Fujitsu site and followed the links to places to buy it. I found an exact replacement 60GB hard dri've for just under $00.
Good luck!

Is there any Sound card 5.1 include stereo mix that working with MacBook Air such as Creative Labs SoundBlaster X-Fi Surround 5.1 Pro Entertainment System ? and if there any another sound card can you tell me what is it please ? Thank you.

Okay, I did my best searching and I couldn't find anything that matched all your descriptors. I did do a search on both decoder numbers. SB0256 returned very little results, but with SB0466, I was able to find this ebay listing:
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...6_fvi%3D&_rdc=
This card isn't a Champion like you suggested. And with my complete lack of knowledge, I don't know what I/O dri've bay means. But since it is PCI and the decoder matches the number you gave me, this card should be adequete, right?
Whether it works or not, my search indicated it might be very hard for me to find that card (or any PCI card for that matter). Everything I saw was out of stock. I know this is a forum for Creative, but are there any other manufacturers that will allow me to accomplish my goal, either with current cards, or discontinued cards? Thanks again
Oh, and I will vote on that thread. I probably won't wait for them to release the decoder since I need it now, but I still believe Creative should be giving the customer what they want

[HELP] Could you please give me a solution to BW reports of ECC purchasing

Hey, guys,
I want to do some customized spend analysis reports of MM purchasing.The purchasing data will be retrived from 2 source systems ( 1 is ECC 6.0 and the other is R/3 4.6c ) And these reports should be viewed by "commodity" , however, there is no commodity code maintained in material master data.
So my solution is :
1. to find a idle field in material master data to maintain this "commodity", this could be flexible for me, however, it's not easy to push other guys to do this. ( I don't have the authority to do the master data maintainence.)
2. to maintain a mapping table in BW, and material and commodity(also description)should be the fields of this table. However, I don't think it's a good way. Because, this table is not easy to maintain and synchronized.
<b> Could you please give me any suggestion for this situation. Is there any good solution to my question? </b>
Thanks a lot

first things first .. if they want a report by commodity .. ask them to maintain it ..
1. if you can make the guys maintain commodity in a idle field, you can as well make them enhance the material master and add a new field ... its upto the flexibility u have
2. i dont think thats a bad idea.. but i would prefer somebody maintain the same mapping table in source system and ask them to RFC it to BI .. so that u can use it as a look up table ...
