Is there a way to create aliases for formulas without using other cells?

I have long formulas in certain cells, that consist of a bunch of smaller formulas that I re-use in multiple cells. Is there a way to create an alias for a formula (or create my own function) that I can then piece together into one big formula? I think I can use another cell to drop the formula in, but that just clutters up the spreadsheet.

David,
it looks like you can't define own formulas or create aliases for formulas.

  • Is there any way to create a HTTP_AAE Receiver without a path in NW PO 7.31

    Hi ,
    Does anyone know how to create a HTTP_AAE Receiver without a path??
    We are in a phase of migrating Interfaces from PI 7.1 to PO 7.31(Java Only).
    For one of the Interface in PI 7.1 there is a RFC Destination for vendor communication through HTTPS connectivity  :
    TargetHost: IP Address
    Post: value
    Path Prefix: Blank
    During migration  requirment is to keep the Path field BLANK of the Communication Channel,however since  PO has mandatory path field   a "/" is been provided, because of which data post fails.
    PI:  https://IP:9443
    PO:  https://IP:9443/  (Since Path Prefix is mandatory)
    As per my understanding The data is supposted to be posted directly to the IP (https://IP:9443) however it is getting posted to (https://IP:9443/) where the service is not available. For Reference attached relevant screenshots.
    Is there any way to  create a HTTP_AAE Receiver without a path. Need ardent support and suggestions
    regarding this.

    1) Material Master purchasing view tick automatic PO check box
    2) Vendor Master purchasing view tick automatic PO check box.
    3) Maintain Source list for Vendor & Material.(ME01)
    4) Maintain Purchase Info Record.(ME11)
    5) Create a Purchase Requisition.(ME51)
    6) Use T.Code: ME59 & execute for PR for vendor, you will be able to create automatic PO.
    During creation of PR , select check box of Source Determination in the 1st screen of ME51
    Ensure that Purchase Info Record should be there.
    If you have more than one vendor then fixes only one vendor in source list.

  • Is there a way to create a toll free number using an app?

    Is there a way to create a toll free number using an app?

    I guess if you owned your own network you could. But, if you owned the network, you wouldn't need an app. Otherwise, how do you think you're gonna just create a "toll free number"?

  • I have hidden unwanted books from the purchased area of the iBooks store, but they're are still appearing on the front page of iOS as cloud downloads, is there a way to remove these from iBooks without using the hide iCloud books button?

    I have hidden unwanted books from the purchased area of the iBooks store, but they're are still appearing on the front page of iOS as cloud downloads, is there a way to remove these from iBooks without using the hide iCloud books button?
    Let me explain a little more. I had downloaded a lot of free books in the past as a trial when iBooks was first released and since then I have decided I no longer want them, because of this I hid them from the purchased section of the iBooks store. The 5 books left are ones I decided to keep as seen in the following picture.
    This is how it appears in iBooks on my mac. There are 4 books downloaded and 1 book that I have decided not to download at this time. I would still like to keep this book available in the cloud incase I want to download it again in the future. You’ll notice that hide iCloud books is not selected, if I wanted to hide the book that I have chosen to keep in the cloud, but have not downloaded yet I could.
    This is exactly how I think this feature should work. If you have hidden a book from your purchases it should not show up in the mac Ibooks app. (I am aware you can never actually delete a purchase, just hide them and that hidden purchases can be restored to your account from within the account management section of the iBooks store).
    The iOS app is working differently for me. Here is a picture of the purchased tab on the iBooks store in iOS Ibooks. Again notice that pictures of Lilly is still yet to be downloaded. This is how I expected it to look.
    If we visit the front page of iOS iBooks the view is very different from what I expected. Here we can see the 4 books I wanted to keep on my device and have downloaded. We can also see the 1 book I wanted to keep, but did not want to store locally on the device and left in iCloud (Pictures of Lilly). However we can also see all the books I had hidden from the purchased section of my iTunes account and which I believe should no-longer be visible, Dracula, frankenstein etc…
    I am aware of the hide iCloud books button within the iOS app, but I did not need to use this to hide the books I had removed from the my purchased section of the iBooks store on the mac, why are they still appearing in iOS?
    I’m still not sure if this is a software glitch or not. This article suggests to me that books can be hidden, but I had already completed these steps.
    https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT201322
    A browse of google also suggests people may have been able to hide past purchases from the front page of iBooks on iOS in the past.
    In case there was an issue with syncing I tried logging in and out of my iTunes account via settings in iOS. Force closing the app, disabling automatic downloads and removing my device from iTunes in the cloud. Syncing with iTunes on the mac did not correct the issue either.
    Interestingly I have the same issue on my iPhone 6 running iOS 8.3 as I do on my iPad mini suggesting that this might be an issue either with my account or with iOS iBooks software in general.
    If there is a way to remove the already hidden iBooks in your account from the front page of iBooks on iOS without using the hide iCloud downloads button? Please help community!

    I recently purchased an old iMac G3 Macintosh. I was wondering, is there a way where I can update it without using an external disc? I've seen the newer Apple products with the dock, if I update my iMac G3, will it have that, and if so, how can I do that?

    I was wondering, is there a way where I can update it without using an external disc?
    If you mean the iMac does not have an internal optical drive capable of reading DVDs, the only option requires another Mac with a DVD-capable drive and FireWire ports. Your iMac G3 will also require FireWire ports. Not all G3 iMacs have Firewire. FW started with the Summer 2000 models with 400mHz and faster processors.
    With FireWire, you can use FireWire Target Disk mode to install from a retail OS install DVD in another Mac. If you supplemental info info tells us if you have another Mac with a DVD reader and the FW ports, we can walk you through the process.
    If the iMac has a tray-loading drive, I'd forget it. They are very limited not only in the OS max (10.3.9) but also in RAM capability. Starting with the slot-loading iMac G3s, the max RAM increased to 1 GB (2 X 512MB modlules). Tiger likes 1GB RAM.
    Understand that pre-Intel Macs are getting harder to use. Even with 10.4.11, your choice of browsers is limited (TenFourFox is the most viable option) and the G3s  rudimentary video hardware means web browsing will be choppy at best.
    If you are in the USA, you can try calling the Apple Store (1-800-MY-APPLE) for an OS disk. As recently as Jan 20, someone posted here that they were able to buy Tiger by calling. It was not clear whether the disks were replacement system install/restore disks or full retail install, but it's a free call.
    When you do "About this Mac" to check teh OS verion, also look at the processor speed and tell us what that says. That can help with recommendations for an upgrade path.

  • Does anyone know how the cutout filter works and is there a way of achieving the same effect without using filters to get more control over final look?

    does anyone know how the cutout filter works and is there a way of achieving the same effect without using filters to get more control over final look?

    Several ways to get similar results.  Image > Adjustments > Posturize with low values similar to what you'd use n Cutout.  This is the most flexible way I can think of as you keep the image in RGB mode with layers intact.  A more radical approach would be to reduce bit depth using Indexed Colour.  You'll need to experiment with settings, try changing Forced to Primaries, and Matte to Foreground Color.  There's no going back from this route, although you can change the mode back to RGB to re-enable layers, adjustment layers etc.
    A nice thing about the Filter gallery filters is that you can change the layer to a Smart object with all the control that gives you.
    Now if only this forum could filter out bizarre content.

  • Is there a way to text someone on iMessage without using your number on an iphone

    is there a way to text someone on iMessage without using your number on an iphone ? there's someone i want to text but it's long distant an ik not sure about giving my number to them just yet. so is there a way to send them a message from iMessage on my iPhone rather then using my number  ? please let me know ASAP !

    Sending an iMessage with your phone number does not matter whether it is long distance phone call or not. That has no bearing on how iMessage works. iMessages from the phone that is activated with the phone number will send from the phone number.

  • Is there a way to create an interactive form without Acrobat

    Bottom line, is there a way to create an interactive form that can either be filled out and saved, or "submitted" with a mailto: button without having to buy a copy of acrobat too.
    I have found numerous tutorials and examples, but everytime I try I run into the "action is not supported" error from adobe reader. Ironically, I have not problems saving a filled out form with OSX preview, but that won't work for PC users.
    It seems like Adobe missed a step or is just forcing users to buy a secondary product to "re-save" a file with a form.

    It’s not a failing at all. It’s just the way it is.

  • Is there a way to create a paid Membership site using Muse?

    A client is wanting a website that has an area that is available to paid memberships. I have already read on how to create the secure zones, just wondering if there was a way to create a paid membership portion to the form. I have seen several hints at this being a possibility. Was just wondering if anyone has experience with this particular area? Or even a direction to search.

    Thanks for the info.
    Steps would be :
    - Create a page in BC which you want to be the landing page for secure zone , where users will login and then they will be directed to that page.
    - Go to Site Manager > Secure Zone > Create secure zone , Check sell membership access , Define currency,amount and frequency. Curreny would be the membership country currency, amount that you want users to pay and Frequency would be the time you want the membership to expire.
    - Go to Site Manager > Web forms> create web form > In edit properties , select the secure zone in secure zone list > Add username and password field > Specify payment method
    - Open page where you want to insert the secure zone login form and the web form to allow users to register for the secure zone and make the payment.
    Now with Muse , you can insert html part of the content that you created in BC
    - Open the page in Muse where you want to insert the sign in form , copy the html of the form which you created in BC and then insert in Muse Page.
    - Similarly do that for sign in form.
    Please note that site published from Muse are web hosting sites which does not includes secure zone, so you would need to upgrade the site plan which is a different site subscription.
    Although you can first try with a trial site( get in touch with support where they can change the site plan of your trial site ) as how this works and then after you finalize your site you can upgrade to paid site.
    This document includes instructions as how to setup secure zone :

  • Is there any way to create a Purchase Requisition without Purchase Inf Rec?

    Hi,
    i am dealing with the Preq creation for services when there is not any previous contract and i have noticed that the vendor and the net price are posible to populate them directly in the Purchase Requisition. if then i try to run the ME59 it is not possible to automatically convert it to a Purchase order because there is no PIR (when i assign the source of supply in the Preq then the PO is correctly created using ME59).
    I have been reviewing customizing but there is not any point related to that.
    Someone knows if it is possible to create a Preq for services without PIR?
    thanks

  • Is there a way to turn the iPad off without using the power button?

    I have the new iPad air.
    LOVE IT!
    One thing though...I have a folio style cover on it, magnet closure = power off.
    The case does not allow for power button access, and there are times when I wish for a way to power it off without closing that cover.
    Does anybody know if there is a gesture that can power it off?
    If, not, needs to be one.
    Or, perhaps, a desktop "button" that can do that too. It would probably be an app.
    So, there's my question, thanks for any reply anybody can make on this!

    Completely power off? no. But it will automatically to go sleep after a period of time. You can set the period of time, 2, 5, 10, 15 minutes or never. in 'settings, general, autolock'
    Really, you don't need to totally power it down during its normal use. Mine just goes to sleep all the time and works just fine.
