IPod ignores sorting fields

My iPod ignores the sorting fields used in iTunes. Mostly I use the artist sorting field. This means the albums on my iPod are listed differently than in iTunes.
The problem did not exist in version 7.1.0.59, it showed up after upgrading to 7.1.15 . Any thoughts (apart from downgrading)?
5G 30g Windows XP

I encounter the same problem - Sort fields are just ignored by the iPod.
Is there any way to fix it?
How do I downgrade iTunes?

Why does my new iPod touch sort music by album artist, instead of song artist?

I recently go an iPod touch 4th Gen. My old iPod sorted music by song artist, but the new one sorts it by album artist. My problem is this: There is an album called Re:generation. It was a project in which 5 DJs each made 2 songs for the album. So I enter the info for each song, but my iPod sorts it by album artist, which is listed as "Re:generation". I wanted the songs to be sorted by the 5 artists that actually made the songs, so there would be 2 songs under 5 different artists. If I wanted to listen to the whole album, I could press the album tab, scroll down to "Re:generation" and play the whole album. This all worked fine on my old iPod, but now it doesn't.
My first solution was to change the album artist on each song to the artist that created that song. But then by iPod list 5 different albums, so I can't listen to the album as a whole if I wanted to. My next solution was to erase the album artist info for each song, but now none of the ten songs can be found under the artist tab. I have to go over to the album and pick which song I want to hear.
If you don't understand, here's an example. 2 of the songs on the Re:generation album are by Pretty Lights. I want to be able to select Pretty Lights under the artist tab, choose all songs, shuffle, and have those 2 songs play at some point. But I would also like to be able to got to the album tag, select Re:generation, and play all 10 songs in order. However, the new setup won't allow me to do this.
So I'm wondering if I can fix the problem by somehow editing the iPod's sort settings (if possible), or reverting back to the old system (if possible), and why Apple even changed the system in the first place. It seems pretty stupid to me, and I honestly see no reason to change what I thought was a perfect system.

wow, i really don't have time to read all that, but i'll give you an hint when you're in music library click "More" and then "Composers" i think that's what you're lookin for otherwise just ignore it

New View / Sort Field, PLEASE!

I'll start off by saying that iTunes is not at all my favorite software for media organization; I use J. River Media Center. But I have to use it because I proudly own a new iPhone 3GS, and iPod Touch.
If someone could please make my life with iTunes easier by creating a "Filename" or "Folder Path" viewing/sorting field in the iTunes Library that would just be GREAT. I heavily rely on sorting my media by their locations in my directory, and I'm sure many would appreciate it. If you ask me, it's a far more valuable field for sorting than like Disc Number or Skip Count. Please, please, please get a "Filename" field in the iTunes Library asap.

J. River Media Center allows me to (extremely easily) rename, move, and copy files according to certain rules based off their tags. Therefore, all of my music is already in their correct folders etc. by the time iTunes gets to it.
In iTunes I don't need to know which folder a file is in or what the filename is. Frankly, I don't care.
I can find any song, movie, podcast, etc. directly in iTunes.
All I'm asking for is another way to sort my media.
In iTunes, you can sort on any of the columns available (soetihng like 27 different variable).
You can use smart playlists, as weel as selecting any genre, artist, album and sort those by any of the previous mentioned columns.
However, if none of this suits your needs, send suggestions here as Meg mentioned -> http://www.apple.com/feedback/itunesapp.html

Sort field in action monitor

Dear Experts,
I'm trying to take bulk/mass printouts for CRM transactions, using t.code- CRMC_ACTION_JOB.here we have a field called SORT FIELD1.please tell me the significance of this.actually there is no furthur filteration criteria for this.like-user id,service organisation etc.
My requirement is to print the service order as per the service organisations,which is not possible in t.code-CRMC_ACTION_JOB.
please provide some input for this issue.

Hi,
You can use the sort fields to process a series of actions in a defined order during batch processing. For this, you have to assign an attribute of the application object to the sort field in the action Customizing. When the action is generated, the value of this attribute is then entered into the corresponding sort field. First, the sorting defines how the selected actions are displayed in the list. During the batch run, the actions are then also processed in this order.
For the sorting, you must create and specify a variant that orders the ALV according to the entries in the sort fields. The dialog allows you to check the correct sort sequence in the ALV.
For example, if the postal code of the document recipient is entered into one of the sort fields, documents can be printed sorted by their postal code.

Sort field in maint.plan&in ip30

hi
does some one implementd sort field use in img of maint plan
and does dead line monitoring in ip3o
whar are the benifits or scope
ponts will be rewarded

Hi,
The sort field is used to 'sort' plans according to different criteria that you need to configure.
For e.g. If a company has 200 Maintenance plans and you want to know all the plans valid for a certain division of the company. You can have these plans sorted as per company division.
You will need to configure the sort fields in IMG. If company name is COMP, then sort fields may be
COMPDIV1, COMPDIV2 etc (just an example).
For scheduling maintenance plans indvidually IP10 may be used. However in real scenarios. the transaction IP30 is used to do a scheduling of all the maintenance plans together.
Thanks,
KF

Sort field in equipment main screen

We have an equipment having some validity dates(Valid from: 20.11.2009 & valid to: 31.12.9999) . Whenever we enter sort field in the Location tab the validity start date changes to todays date (Valid from:10.06.2009). How we can avoid this changes of dates. What is relation of sort field with valid from date ?

Hi,
It appears you have the sort field marked as relevant for equipment usage period. This will cause a new usage period with valid from date to be set each time the value of this field is changed.
You can check customizing as follows:
Plant Maintenance and Customer Service
Master Data in Plant Maintenance and Customer Service
Technical Objects
   Equipment
   Equipment Usage Period
   Define History-Related Fields
The field to look for is EQFNR.

Sort field in maintenance order

Hello;
I want to make sort field in maintenance order as a mandatory field. But if I make it as a mandatory field, system still allows me to save the order as long as I have not clicked 'Location' tab. So there is no positive control over this field. May I know, how do I achieve this? I have even tried to put order type as the influencing field but it does not help.
Points assured.
Regards
Hemant

Hello Hemant,
access to the SAP service marketplace via www.service.sap.com to create an OSS message. Choose link "product errors". Therefore you need an OSS user and you have to be authorized to create OSS messages.
To create an user-exit, you have to go to transaction CMOD. There you have to create a project and assign the enhancement you want to use (I'm not really sure, but I think IWO10009 is the correct one in your case - you can search the user-exits via transaction SMOD - search for IWO*).
After this you have to implement your coding and then you have to activate the project.
The implementation of the user-exit should be done by an ABAP developer.
By the way - I've had a look at the OSS. There's note 768576.
Reason and Prerequisites
The problem is caused by a missing function.
Influences set via field selection will only become effective if a screen with the corresponding fields is processed. You must also refer to the documentation defined in the corresponding Customizing area. For the location & account assignment data, no additional check is (such as with the general order header data) is realised during the saving.
Prerequisite
Via field selection you declared fields of the location & account assignment data as mandatory field, and no screen that contains these fields was passed.
Solution
By means of the example code, you must implement a corresponding mandatory field check via customer enhancement IWO10009 at the time of the order backup.
1. Create subroutine Z_IWO10009_GET_DATA_FOR_FAW in program SAPMILA0. It would be best if you create an own include ZMILA0F1 for this so that you will not have any unnecessary expenditure for future Support Packages (via Transaction SE80).
FORM Z_IWO10009_GET_DATA_FOR_FAW.
CALL FUNCTION 'CO_IH_GET_HEADER'
       IMPORTING
                 CAUFVD_IMP = CAUFVD.
CALL FUNCTION 'CO_IH_GET_ILOA'
       EXPORTING
                 CAUFVD_IMP = CAUFVD
       IMPORTING
                ILOA_WA    = ILOA.
ENDFORM.                    "Z_IWO10009_GET_DATA_FOR_FAW
2. Create the following source code in customer enhancement IWO10009:
STATICS: XTFAWF LIKE TFAWF OCCURS 0 WITH HEADER LINE.
tables: tfawf.
DATA: wa_screen    LIKE screen.
FIELD-SYMBOLS: 'A'.
perform Z_IWO10009_GET_DATA_FOR_FAW(SAPMILA0).
if xtfawf[] is initial.
    SELECT * FROM TFAWF INTO TABLE XTFAWF
             WHERE PROG = 'SAPMILA0'.
endif.
LOOP AT XTFAWF WHERE CUST_M = 'X'.
    CALL FUNCTION 'FIELD_SELECTION_INFLUENCE'
         EXPORTING
              dynprogruppe = '7   '
              mode        = 'C'
              modulpool    = 'SAPMILA0'
              fieldname    = XTFAWF-MFELD
         IMPORTING
              input        = wa_screen-input
              output      = wa_screen-output
              active      = wa_screen-active
              required    = wa_screen-required
              intensified = wa_screen-intensified
              invisible    = wa_screen-invisible
         EXCEPTIONS
              OTHERS      = 1.
    if wa_screen-required = 1.
      clear lv_mfeld.
      lv_mfeld = 'CAUFVD_IMP-'.
      case XTFAWF-MFELD.
        when 'ILOA-AUFNR'.
          lv_mfeld+11 = 'IAUFNR'.
        when 'ILOA-KOKRS'.
          lv_mfeld+11 = 'IKOKRS'.
        when 'ILOA-BUKRS'.
          lv_mfeld+11 = 'IBUKRS'.
        when 'ILOA-GSBER'.
          lv_mfeld+11 = 'IGSBER'.
        when 'RILA0-ARBPL'.
          lv_mfeld11 = xtfawf-mfeld6.
        when others.
          lv_mfeld11 = xtfawf-mfeld5.
      endcase.
      ASSIGN (lv_mfeld) TO IS INITIAL.
        Message E461(IW)
        with 'Mussfelder der Standort&Kontierungsdaten füllen'.
        EXIT.
      ENDIF.
    endif.
endloop.
endif.
3. Activate the changes
Correspondingly you can implement this solution also for the order release, for example, via customer enhancement IWO10002.
Bear in mind that this is a source code proposal. It might be useful or necessary to adjust this source code to special applications.
Best regards
Stephan

Sort Field to be made mandatory while creating maintenance plan(IP42)

Hi Experts,
Please suggest me the way by which i can make the field "Sort field" mandatory while creating maintenance plan (IP42).
Regards,
Vivek

Vivek,
There is no std config to acheive this. Please use IPRM0004 Maintenance plan/item: Customer check for "Save" to accomplish the same.

How do I have Adobe Acrobat 9.0 calculate the minimum of 10 fields BUT ignore empty fields?

How do I have Adobe Acrobat 9.0 calculate the minimum of 10 fields BUT ignore the field if it is empty? Currently it counts blanks as 0 so when it comes up with the minimum it will always show 0 unless all 10 fields have values in them.

You could loop through the fields and add the non-blank values to an array, and use the Math.min method to get the minimum. Here's an example custom Calculate script:
// Custom calculate script
(function () {
    // Array to hold non-blank field values
    var fa = [];
    // Loop through the fields...
    for (var i = 1; i < 11; i += 1) {
        // ...get the current field value, as string...
        var v = getField("text1." + i).valueAsString;
        // ...if not blank, add value to the array, as a number
        if (v) fa.push(+v);
    // Set this field's value to the minimum value in the array, otherwise blank
    event.value = fa.length > 0 ? Math.min.apply(null, fa) : "";
This assumes the fields are named "text1.1", "text1.2", ..."text1.10" and that they're numeric. This type of field naming simplifies the code, so it would be good to use something similar and adjust the getField statement to match.

Sort Fields Not Working Properly?

If I do Get Info on a track, and change the Sort Artist to anything, then I Right Click on the track in the library > Apply Sort Field > Same Artist it changes the Sort Artist of all tracks by that artist to what I entered.
However, I want to delete all the Sort Artist data. I do exactly the same thing, and change the Sort Artist data to nothing on a track. However when I try to apply the sort field to all tracks by the artist it leaves them alone! It doesn't change all the Sort Artists to nothing! It only does this when I enter no data. Any string at all and it works correctly.
How can I change all the Sort Artists to nothing i.e. delete the Sort Artist data?

Hi there.
How about, instead of leaving the Sort Artist field blank, entering a name that is identical to the actual Artist field instead and then use the Apply Sort Field > Same Artist option.
You can then go to the iTunes View menu > View Options command and uncheck Sort Artist so that it will no longer appear in your iTunes Library display.
Does that bring you anything in the way of satisfaction?

How to ignore some fields on Receiver File?

Hi folks,
I have this inbound structure example:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<ns0:MT_ObrasAdjud_Out xmlns:ns0="http://pt.edp/r3/obrasadjudicadas">
<codforn>123543</codforn>

<filetype>pdf</filetype>
<filedata>01010101001001</filedata>
</ns0:MT_ObrasAdjud_Out>
Using File Conversion with my Receiver File Adapter I want to convert this xml file to a flat file, but only using the element <b><filedata></b> and ignore the others. However, I also need the others elements to use as variable substitution.
Anybody knows how to do it?
Thanks in Advance,
Ricardo.

Hi Ricardo,
>>>>Using adapter specific attributes I can use the elements of source message to do it?
or course!!! that's the idea and you do it all in message mapping
(very small advanced function as shown in many blogs)
>>>>But using variable substitution, I cant ignore those fields with file conversion?
don't know I stopped working with variable substitution
as soon as I learned about adapter specific attributes
as they are sooo much better
>>>>I can do a map excluding all the others elements for target message, my target message will be one element <filedata>.
that's the main idea

The sort field is not used when ordering multiple cds in one alumn folder, how do I correct this?

It is using the track number and not the sort order field. The reason I have multiple cds in one alumn is because they are books on cd.

Sorry for the typo my "b" key was not working correctly.

How to make OWB ignore a field that is not mapped.

Hi,
We're using OWB 10.1.
I'm just doing a simple load from a flat file to a regular table.
I discovered that the data file is missing an entire field or column of data.
The field is not necessary so I'm continuing the load.
I just remapped the OWB map so it doesn't not pull data from the last field in the data file.
When it created the control file to do the load, the last field that was unmapped in the OWB map was re-designated as 'DECIMAL EXTERNAL'.
Then when the map runs to load the data, I get an error message of
Record 1: Rejected - Error on table "STAGING"."TCMBBX", column "PAID_AMOUNT".
Column not found before end of logical record (use TRAILING NULLCOLS)So it looks like OWB is still trying to include the last field in the load for some reason when I had unmapped the field in OWB.
My question is how can one un-map a field or not map a field in OWB and then have OWB ignore the field when running the load?
This is regarding removing the map line drawn from a field in the data file to a field in the staging table.
Thanks!
