Inactive PA

Hi All,
My client is going for PA reimplementation.
Long time back they implemented PA which actually lacks strong strutural base in SAP.
I have one issue. They have some Personnel Areas which are said to be Inactive eg.
Brazil inactive
SFO inactive and so on
They are no more using these PA's
But now they want to delete them from system as a step to clean up the system.
Now when we run report to find out do we have any employees in these inactive PA, we came across
employees in these PA who are all withdrawn.
Now my please suggest me on:
1. Should we delete these inactive PAreas with withdrwan employees.
   If yes, how abt the historical data in that.
2. Or is it possible that we create a single new Personnel area with country grouing as 99 say INactive PA
   instead of so many inactive PA based on different countries and run some action in PA40 for all withdrwan employees
   in these Inactive PA where we move all these employees in one Inactive PA and delete the other Inactive PA which are not
   in use now.
   Now here I have one issue, that there are many inactive PA which belongs to diffeent countries
   which are of no use, and these PA are tied up with diff comapny codes also based on countries.
   so if i suggest to create a new PA and link it to one compoany code. in thgat case do i also need to
   ask FI to create a dummy Cost center and link it to country gruping 99.
One more thing they don have time or any other module in place except OM.
So deletion should not affect any groupngs
Pls suggest e the best way to tackle this.
Regards
Aryan

Hi All,
Please do not confuse org units and Personnel areas.
to Sailu and mj : Org units are a part of OM.....they r no way connected to Personnel areas.
No coming to the question by aryan rai .
If you don want to use personnel areas..u shd not delete them.
as per SAP best practice,
Have them in the system and control /filter them in the drop downs so tat going forward nobody uses old or inactive ones.
We have done such a requiremnt for PSAs..it works fine. Pls take a HRabapers help..to filter .
U may need the old inactive for time payroll and other reporting requiremnts...so its nt advisable to delete.
Aryan ...let me know if you need more clarity.

IF-statement in Personas that is checking if control is inactive?

Hi,
I have this simple script in screen personas that is clicking the option: "Attachment list". Everything is working great if there is attachments.
If there are no attachments the option is "inactive" or "greyed out". This will result in a script error.
I thought this was going to be an easy fix by adding IF statement to the the script. But howerver I specify the critera for the IF statement the script will always try to click the Attachment list. The condition will simply always be TRUE.
Am I missing something here or is it not possible at this time to script an IF statement that is checking if the control is inactive or similar?
Best Regards,
Oskar Söderlund

There is another way, but it will get a little tricky.
Outside of the transaction IE03 you can check for the existence of attachments for a piece of equipment by looking in table SRGBTBREL. Field TYPEID_A will be "EQUI" and field INSTID_A will be the equipment number, zero-padded on the left to 18 characters long. Use SE16 to look in the table and you'll get the idea.
You could wrap this test in an RFC-enabled ABAP function and call that from your Personas script button. Use the return value from that RFC to decide if attachments exist or not and how the script should respond. Details for how to write such an RFC and call it from a Personas script are in this blog: Calling RFCs from a Personas script.
Like I said, this isn't straightforward and perhaps Personas scripting should include an active/inactive test in addition to the exists/doesn't exist test. Until then, however, there is a way if you don't mind a bit of ABAP programming.

Error while activating all inactive infoobjects in DEV

Hai
Im trying to activate all inactive infoobject by using program RSDG_IBOJ_ACTIVATE. But it says the following error
System error in lock management
Message no. AD025
Diagnosis
A system error has occurred in the lock management function.
The system was unable to determine whether a lock entry existed for the selected object.
System Response
The selected object could not be locked.
Only display mode can be used.
Procedure
Make a note of the error code and inform your system administrator.
why it is like this
how can i activate all inactive infoobjects in development server.
kumar

Hi,
It seems objects are locked in transport request. Check the 'object directory entry' for the object and find out the transport request/task under which objects are locked. Remove the objects from TR or release the request and then try to activate.
Hope it helps.

Active version of BW Data Source Dev Appears inactive in Q

Hi All,
This is urgent..needs to move to prod today but I am stuck in D still!
Does anyone know why a particular BW data source which is active inn Dev might appear to be inactive in Q after the transport?
We tried manual replication, transporting replica and reapplying the transports, recollecting the data source in both r3 and BW
I also verified that I am collecting the active version in my transport
Thanks,
DB
Points will be assigned if I can get rid of this issue!

Hello Darshana,
Make sure the appropriate "Conversion of Source System names after transport" are maintained in target system QA and Prod.

Inactive component cost not rolled up to top level item

Hi
Our scenario is as follows: we have a top level item with a BOM. And some components of the BOM are having material status u2018inactiveu2019. Inactive means materials will not procured and sold, however we could have inventory which can be consumed in production of other materials. In other words inactive items are like old items. These inactive items already have costing value. And we donu2019t want to recost inactive items.
Having described above scenario, the requirement here is when we run costing for top level item, system should take costing value of inactive items and roll up into top level item costing which is NOT happening now. Client donu2019t want to recost inactive items. The reason for not recosting inactive items is the recosting could change cost of inactive items significantly. We are using 4.7 version and standard costing.
Would appreciate any ideas or suggestions in this regard.
thanx
Sunil

Thanks Young for the reply.
We already set 'do not cost' indicator for inactive components. And these inactive components do have standard costs valid up 10 12/31/2999. It seems bom explosion is excluding these materials. it is ok to exclude. However the existing standard cost of these inactive components did not roll up in to top level. when I checked the costing status log, it says material ABCDF123 in plant 3344 has material status 40: Inactive.
I checked BOM as well and inactive component is flagged as 'relevant for costing'.
We are using following valuation varaiant
Strategy Sequence -> 1. Planned Price 1 2.Standard Cost
Transfer Control - Complete Transfer
thnx

What is diff b/w active and inactive DCs

hi
please let me know what is diff between Active and Inactive DC's.
If possible send some FAQs on JDI
Thanks
-mmukesh

Hi Mukesh,
When you are developing somthing through JDI (NWDI), you will have inactive dc and active dc.
If you want to do some changes in code then you can do these changes through inactive dcs. Whatever changes you do in inactive DCs and until you check-in that activity. other developers cannot have those changes.
but, when you check-in your activity those changes will be visible to other developers who are working on the same DC but this updated code will not be reflected in active DC.
But when you activate that activity, those changes will be reflected in active dc and this active dc will be deployed on Development server.
In summary, inactive DCs contain intermidiate code which is not ready to deploy on Development server yet. This updated code is available in Active DC.
Hope now you are clear with Inactive and Active DCs.

Is there a setting that allows firefox to follow redirects on inactive tabs?

I usually browse multiple pages at once. While one page is busy loading I like to switch tabs and read another page. The problem Ive recently encountered is that whenever there is a page redirect firefox will wait until the tab is active before following it.
For example sometimes when Im posting a message to a support forum (lets say forums.fedoraforum.org as just one specific example) it will submit my message and then try to redirect me back to the thread that I was posting to. I often switch tabs right after I click submit and expect the page to be loaded when I come back, but to my disdain firefox will wait until the tab is active before following the redirect, thus when I switch back it still has not even started loading the page yet.
I was hoping maybe there is an about:config setting or something that will allow firefox to follow these redirects while the tab is inactive?

A standard diagnostic step is to try Firefox's Safe Mode to see whether it is caused by a custom setting or add-on.
First, I recommend backing up your Firefox settings in case something goes wrong. See [https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Backing+up+your+information Backing up your information]. (You can copy your entire Firefox profile folder somewhere outside of the Mozilla folder.)
Next, restart Firefox in [http://support.mozilla.com/kb/Safe+Mode Safe Mode] using
Help > Restart with Add-ons Disabled
In the Safe Mode dialog, do not check any boxes, just click "Continue in Safe Mode."
If redirects now work normally, you can assume that an add-on or custom setting is the culprit.

Global inactivity vs appl. session timeout

Hi
We are planning to use sso for authentication . And we also have several j2ee applications which we are going to deploy. My question is this- typically how do we use global inactivity timeout with respect to application sesion timeout?? Are there any examples that I can look at?
Thanks
Krishna

Hi Steffen,
The direct answer to your question is NO :).
But:
- for WEB sessions, there is a possibility to set the default inactivity timeout with the global-web.xml. This applies only for the applications that haven't specified their timeout in their xml.
- for EJB sessions, again there is a possibility to specify the inactivity timeout via xml
If you need specific details, ask here and I or some of our other experts will fetch them for you.
Best wishes,
Nikolai.

Bonjour + Fast User switching = messages going to the wrong (inactive) user

We use iChat for Bonjour in our office– fast file transfers etc.
If a user is one of 2 or more logged in on a machine– through the use of fast user switching, we've noticed that incoming messages (initiated by another user on the network) will often go to the switched user (i.e. the inactive user) not the user we're currently logged in as.
We've been able to repeat the issue.
1. Log in as user 1, fast user switch to user 2 (leaving user 1 logged in but inactive)
2. Go to new machine, log in as user 3
3. Send message from user 3 to user 2
4. Look at user 2 screen. No messages
5. Send message from user 2 to user 3. User 3 will receive message, and will be able to send message successfully back to user 2.
6. Log out use 2
7. Log in as user 1
8. Notice all the messages that were going to the 'inactive' user profile.
Has anyone else seen this type of behavior?

HI MAtthew,
Welcome to the Apple Discussion Pages.
I have not seen this (I only have one Mac).
However there is an item in IChat Preferences > General section that can set the staus of the Users account to Offline or Away when using Fast User Switching.
What is yur set to and does it make any difference when changing it ?
Away in normal circumstance menas someone can still Invite you to chats (or Text you)

Quota deduction when EE has been inactive for more than 180 days / Advance quota days when employee does not have enough balance

Dear experts,
We have two requirements regarding to the "Anual leave" quota.
1. Quota reduction when employee is inactive for more than 180 days
2. Advance quota days when employeee does not have enough balance
We have in place an "Anual Leave" quota related to a calendar year period, that gets generated dialy in time evaluation. This quota gets the employee entitlement from a set of rules that stored the corresponding balance in a period time type, that is the one that we defined in the customizing. This is working fine. The problems start when we try to incorporate the other two requirements.
Regarding the first requirement, if the employee has been inactive for more than 180 days in a calendar year due to unpaid leave, we need to start quota reduction as follow,
First, we need to clear the balance that was calculated above in the schema.
Then, we need to calculate one leave day for every 20 days worked till the end of the year, considering as such, everyday the employee is expected to work, except days on which the employee has been absent on unpaid leave.
For the second requirement we created a manual quota call "Advance Anual Leave". So, if the employee, wishes to take 20 working days holiday, but in his/her Anual Leave quota has only 10 days available, we have to create an "Advance Anual Leave" quota manualy for 10 days. When the quota for next year gets generated, we need to deduct these advanced 10 days from it. This deduction should stop the year after.
The problem we are finding with these two requirements is that, due to the Anual Leave quota gets generated dialy, we can't get the balance right.
Thanks in advance!
Kind regards,
Alex

CUCM 8.6.2 LDAP User Delete Pending LDAP Sync Status Inactive

BE6K ver 8.6.2
Client has a user who recently got married. They changed her account information in Active Directtory to reflect her new last name. At that point CUCM shows her as
Delete Pending
LDAP Sync Status Inactive
CUC shows
LDAP User has been deleted.
The user still exists in both CUC and CUCM and is actively takign and receiving calls. User has VM access.
Shorrt of deleting the user in AD and recreating her, is there a way to force this to re-sync?
Thanks
Matt

Then that's expected to happen, for all purposes to CUCM/CUC eyes, msmith no longer exists and will be deleted, and a new user mjones now will be imported.
Depending on when the change was done and when CUCM detected this, it might take up to 48 hours maximum to delete the user
You'll need to associate everything to the new user, and also add that new user into CUC.
Or switch back her userID to the old one, and just change the surname for directory purposes.

On What devices is iMessages not working ?
What have you done on each effected device ?
What, if any, error messages are you seeing ?
There are 4 error messages in the Link I posted above.
There is the separate issue of the missing Serial Number that is not listed by Apple any where.
There are more recent issues of the one to Contact Support.
There is a more "silent" issues where Contacts are reported as "Not Registered" only on the Mac.

I'm currently having trouble understanding why my Inactive Memory (Displayed in Activity Manager) is running at such a high rate.

I'm using Quicktime Player to export movies. I'm just bothered by the fact that is says "Inactive" rather than "Active". Can someone please explain to me why I have such low Free Memory?
Computer Specifications:
iMac i7 3.4Ghz
RAM: 16GB DDR3
1TB HDD
AMD Radeon 6970m 1GB

Inactive Memory is memory which has been allocated to applications which were previously, but no longer, using it. It remains available to them on a "first call" basis. In theory, it should be readily available to other applications on demand, but in practice it doesn't seem to work this way.
Looking at Page outs and Swap used down at the bottom -- and I won't go into any details right now -- it looks like you are low on RAM, but maybe not critically, and could use more. Either that or run fewer memory intensive applications concurrently.
One (little known) way to regain some of that Inactive memory to Free memory, which right now on your system is quite low and will end up causing your Mac to run sluggishly or freeze it completely, is to open Disk Utility in Utilities and run repair Permissions. Another way is to simply restart. If you want to read more on memory
