Job and dates

Hi, How could I submit a job that executes every day at 12:00:00AM ?
Thanks!

For instance
DECLARE
X NUMBER;
BEGIN
SYS.DBMS_JOB.SUBMIT
( job => X
,what => 'your_stored_procedure();'
,next_date => to_date('07/07/2007 12:00:00','dd/mm/yyyy hh24:mi:ss')
,interval => 'trunc(sysdate) + 1.5'
,no_parse => TRUE
END;
You will get the assigned job number in X.
Regards

How to Capture print jobs and Data with WIN32 API?

My organization has about 5 network printers and copiers to which a computer can print. What I'd like to do is build, if possible, a simple JAVA program to intercept what the users are printing (from any application) and capture certain information about the print jobs before it gets sent off to the specified printer.
For example, when a user selects print from the menu in MS Word, and after the Ok button is pressed on the printers dialog window, have my program then pop up asking the user to fill in specific information (who they want to charge for the print job...this is typically an internal billing code, etc.).
The program would have to capture the name/driver of the printer users are printing to, the document they printed, number of pages, number of copies, date/time, etc.
Is/are there Windows API's to help in my programming of this application? I've been, unsuccessfully, searching MSDN, web sites, etc. on how to intercept/detect a print job. Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks ahead of time...

Hi,
Printing is nothing to do with database transaction. SP will not apply here. You may only try SDK.
Thanks,

Data pump for HR Jobs and HR positions for v11i

I am trying to use Datapump (v11i/11.5.2)
to load the data for HR Jobs and Hr Positions. I am loading HR_PUMP_BATCH_HEADER and HR_PUMP_BATCH_LINE TABLEs with records having required valid values but I am getting error. I have succefully loaded the employee data using same method before.
Have anybody done this ? PLase help.
null

I got the below from Metalink.
Pl. see whether it is helpful for you, since I have little knowledge about HRMS.
The HR_PUMP_BATCH_LINE_USER_KEYS table must be seeded with value in order for the package that follows to work. In some cases, the user must provide this value.
I ran into this problem when trying to run the create_job_requirement API through the Data Pump. Within my PL/SQL block, this is how I passed the value to my variable:
pv_id_flex_num_user_key := sel.sun_job_id| |sel.name| |sel.job_requirement_id| |sel.id_flex_num| |':ID FLEX NUM USER KEY';
I then performed the following after calling the insert_batch_line procedure and passing all the parameter values:
SELECT hpbl.batch_line_id,
coj_hr_ci.devl_seq_s.nextval,
coj_hr_ci.devl_seq_s.nextval
INTO v_batch_line_id,
v_sequence1,
v_sequence2
FROM hr_pump_batch_lines hpbl
WHERE hpbl.pval058 = pv_id_flex_num_user_key;
INSERT INTO hr_pump_batch_line_user_keys(batch_line_id,
unique_key_id,
user_key_id,
user_key_value)
VALUES(v_batch_line_id,
50141,

Why does Verizon hide the fact on their network an iPhone cannot deliver simultaneous voice and data

For me the breaking point was when the local Corporate Store clerk lied to be about their return policy. He even documented the information he gave me and that didn't matter to management or corporate. I made a decision to switch to the iPhone and was specifically told I had 30 days to evaluate weather I could make the transition from android to iOS. If I couldn’t for any reason, I could just return the phone and pay the $35 restocking fee and we were then free to choose from one of the many androids.
After weeks of challenges and countless hours spent with first tier then second tier then a product specialist we all came to the documented conclusion that the iPhone, on Verizons network could not support data and voice at the same time... Every other smart phone on Verizons network could and always has... the IPhone on ATT's network can support both voice and data at once... but Not On Verizons network...
Each tech I spoke with seemed shocked and in utter disbelief that this could be so. They blamed ATT for harboring special privileges hold over from their exclusive relationship with Apple. Which is not true. Then they blamed Apple for delivering handicapped phones to Verizon on purpose. Well, with an Apple Product Manager on the phone listening in on a Verizon Tech giving me this among other excuses why I could not be on the phone and using google at the same time, the Apple Rep finally jumped in and very politely cleared up any miss information the Verizon tier 2 support rep was fumbling out.
So after I had done everything in my power to make the phone work the way I had understood it would. And had every reason to believe it would. As did every Verizon rep I spoke with at first until they did a little research and found Verizon had deliberately been hiding this fact from customers. So I conceded to go back to the Android world for now and let Verizon sort out this glaring deficit hopefully in the near future… Though every support rep concluded that there was no mention of this being fixed or even a problem so not to hold my breath…
I couldn’t have been more shocked or infuriated when I went to exchange the “still in the plastic mint condition iPhone” I was told I had to have brought it back in the first 14 days… I pleaded and argued, even directed the manager to the notes entered in verizon’s own support documentation regarding my case and he said “well I see here where you were told that but that rep was wrong”. That may be so but I based my entire testing and evaluation timeline based on the dates the rep clearly and admittedly told me! The store manager said there was nothing he could do.
Now I mentioned I’m a Network Solutions Provider and being able to be on the phone doing a support call and using my cellular internet at the same time are an absolute must for me to be able to preform my job. Every Verizon smart phone I have ever owned had been able to do this. Now I am told I am STUCK in a two year contract with an inadequate device that I cannot exchange and therefore functionally useless to me.
Verizon corporate nor the store manager cared one bit about my position. They stood behind a little register tape that by signing my credit card receipt I now owed them two more years of my life and now they could care less weather I had a functioning solution or that I had been a loyal customer for over 17 years. Or that I had brought entire small business offices to them for cell services. Just stood there and held a copy of my receipt and said, well you signed it so here is what it will cost ya to get out of it!
He got out a calculator and started running numbers for what I would have to pay to fix this situation… What I would have to pay to even leave Verizon and go get cell service from someone else. It felt dirty … seedy… like being at some 3rd world used car lot where some shyster had gotten someone wrapped up in a contract and now was going to squeeze the life out of a customer even though they couldn’t’ even deliver the service they implied you were going to get in the first place.
In 30 years of being a small business owner I have never encountered an organization that had less integrity or more unscrupulous business practices…
I see post after post of Verizon Customer Support reps answering threads… funny I haven’t found one where a user honestly thanks the rep for actually helping them out……. Please Verizon Customer Support, show me you actually can look at a situation and see an equitable solution where a Customer and the Share Holders can both win…..

Well if this information was as ubiquitous on the web as you suggest, I am puzzled why it took three weeks of troubleshooting with many levels of Verizon support before we collectively concluded this was the situation...
Regarding Reading what I sign... Thanks for that advice though in this situation I was handed a stylus and told to sign a Signature Pad at the check out counter... ONLY AFTER I signed (for the purchase only) was I presented with this return policy conveniently nested in a 3 foot long reciept consisting of paragraphs of Helvitica 6 type set info... I made the assumption that the sales person could correctly answer a direct question regarding the policy I inadvertently signed for when authorizing the credit card charge... Even more concerning is that when by my actions and constant communications with Verizon, my intent was clearly based on the information I had gotten from the sales rep. and if I was given misinformation it would seem Verizon could show some integrity and support the situation with some equitable solution rather than hiding behind contracts collected from sales staff who do not tell customers the truth.....

GUI_* WS_* Function In Background, CSV Upload
GUI_* and WS_* function modules do not work in background
When scheduling a job in the background the appropriate statement to read in your file is OPEN DATASET, and the file must be on the file system that the SAP server can see.
At anytime, a user can switch of the Personal Computers even though the job is still running in the background. Therefore GUI_* and WS_* function modules are not designed to work in that way, as they need to access your personal computer file.
To choose the correct download method to used, you can check the value of SY-BATCH in your code,
if it is 'X' use OPEN DATASET and if it is ' ' use WS_UPLOAD.
*-- Open dataset for reading
DATA:
dsn(20) VALUE '/usr/test.dat',
rec(80).
OPEN DATASET dsn FOR INPUT IN TEXT MODE.
IF sy-subrc = 0.
DO.
    READ DATASET dsn INTO rec.
    IF sy-subrc <> 0.
      EXIT.
    ELSE.
      WRITE / rec.
    ENDIF.
ENDDO.
ENDIF.
CLOSE DATASET dsn.
*-- Open dataset for writing
DATA rec(80).
OPEN DATASET dsn FOR OUTPUT IN TEXT MODE.
TRANSFER rec TO '/usr/test.dat'.
CLOSE DATASET dsn.
What is the difference when we use upload, ws_upload, gui_upload function modules?
UPLOAD, WS_UPLOAD, GUI_UPLOAD, are used in BDC concepts. ie., Batch Data Communication.
Batch Data Conversion is a concept where user can transfer the Data from non SAP to SAP R/3. So , in these various Function Modules are used.
UPLOAD--- upload a file to the presentation server (PC)
WS_UPLOAD----    Load Files from the Presentation Server to Internal ABAP Tables.
WS means Work Station.
This is used upto SAP 4.6 version.
GUI_UPLOAD-------    Replaces WS_UPLOAD. Upoad file from presentation server to the app server. From 4.7 SAP version it is replaced.
How to Upload csv file to SAP?
Common File Download Upload Questions:
How you upload the data from text file to sap internal table? From my knowledge its by upload or gui_upload.
How you download the data from sap internal table to text file?
How you upload the data from xls (excel) file to sap internal table how you download the data from sap internal table to xls(excel) file.
You can upload data from presentation server to an internal table using gui_upload. Use gui_download to download from internal table to flat file.
Use fm ALSM_EXCEL_TO_INTERNAL_TABLE to upload data frm excel.
Use function module GUI_UPLOAD
The FILETYPE refer to the type of file format you need: For e.g 'WK1' - Excel format , 'ASC' - Text Format etc.
CALL FUNCTION 'GUI_UPLOAD'

I recently changed jobs and no longer have access to the computer that contained my Firefox bookmarks. I don't have a Firefox profile. Is there any way to find and transfer my bookmarks to my new computer?

I recently changed jobs and no longer have access to the computer that contained my Firefox bookmarks. I don't have a Firefox profile. Is there any way to find and transfer my bookmarks to my new computer?

If you don't have access to the old computer any longer, '''no'''. Unless you were using something like the Google Toolbar & Google Bookmarks or Xmarks, which would have your bookmarks in an online account that you could access. Firefox doesn't include an online storage feature for personal data, yet. That is coming in a future version.
If you have a friend at your old job maybe they have access to that old PC and they could export your bookmarks to a file and email that file to you.

Is there a way to manually custom-edit the "Date created" and "Date modified" attributes of files in Mac OS 10.6?

In "List View" in a Finder window, among the many column options are "Date created" and "Date modified." In "View Options" (command-J) for any folder, one can add these columns, along with the standard ones "Size," "Kind," "Label," etc.
A user can alter a file's name, and a file's "label" (i.e. its color). On the other hand, a user can NOT arbitrarily edit/alter a file's official "size" -- other than by physically altering the contents of the file itself, obviously.
But what about a file's "Date created" and "Date modified"? Can either of those be manually edited/changed, just as a file's name can be changed -- or is a file's creation-date an immutable attribute beyond the editorial reach of the user, just as a file's "size" is?
And yes, a person can "alter" a file's "Date modified" by simply modifying the file, which would change its "Date modified" to be the moment it was last altered (i.e. right now). But (and here's the key question) can a user somehow get inside a file's defining attributes and arbitrarily change a file's modification date to be at any desired point in the past that's AFTER its creation date and BEFORE the present moment? Or will so doing cause the operating system to blow a gasket?
If it is possible to arbitrarily manually alter a file's creation date or modification date, how would it be done (in 10.6)? And if it is NOT possible, then why not?

sanjempet --
Whew, that's a relief!
But as for your workaround solution: All it will achieve is altering the created and modified dates to RIGHT NOW. What I'm looking to do is to alter the modification/creation dates to some point in the past.
I'm not doing this for any nefarious reason. I just like to organize my work files chronologically according to when each project was initiated, but sometimes I forget to gather the disparate documents all into one folder right at the beginning, and as a result, sometimes after I finish a job, I will create a new folder to permanently house all the files in an old project, and when that folder is places in a bigger "completed projects" folder and then is organized by "Date created" or "Date modified" in list view, it is out-of-order chronologically because the creation and modification dates of that particular project folder reflect when the folder was created (i.e. today), and not when the files inside the folder were created (i.e. weeks or months ago).
The simplest solution would simply to be able to back-date the folder's creation or modification date to match the date that the project actually started!

SQL Server Agent and Jobs and executing @EventData

I have a SQL Server Agent Job and within it a Job Step which states "Execute Report Subscriptions" and a command which has...
exec msdb.dbo.sp_start_job '6FF53AED-855F-43AB-9FB7-064062B8012E' --9:07 subscription
GO
WAITFOR DELAY '00:08';
Now, I find within SQL Server Agent the Job '6FF53AED-855F-43AB-9FB7-064062B8012E' and its step command which is...
exec [ReportServer].dbo.AddEvent @EventType='TimedSubscription', @EventData='ca4e5410-2758-4a1a-9b06-513821e0d962'
How can I drill-down further into the @EventData 'ca4e5410-2758-4a1a-9b06-513821e0d962' to see what it does? I do not see 'ca4e5410-2758-4a1a-9b06-513821e0d962' within SQL Server Agent and Jobs or am I way off base here as to what exactly the @EventData
parameter seems to be?
Thanks for your review and am hopeful for a reply.

Hi ITBobbyP,
According to your description, you need to know the what does SQL Server Reporting Services do when fire a subscription, right?
When you create a subscription several things are added to the RS server
A row is placed in the Subscriptions table identifying the name of the report, along with parameter settings, data driven query info and so on to process the subscription
A row is placed in the Schedule and ReportSchedule tables with the timing of the subscription
A SQL Server Agent job is created to control the scheduled execution of the report, and this is stored in the sysjobs and sysjobsteps of the MSDB database.
When the subscription runs several things happen
The SQL Server Agent job fires and puts a row in the Event table in the RS catalog with the settings necessary to process the subscription
The RS server service has a limited number of threads (2 per CPU) that poll the Event table every few seconds looking for subscriptions to process
When it finds an event, it puts a row in the Notifications table and starts processing the subscription
Please refer to the links below to see the details.

R/3 job and get the details of variants like (from and to)

Hi,
How to find R/3 job and get the details of variants like (from and to) for that job.
the job is extraction job and running for 4 hours in R/3 once atfer this job completes BW job will start executing. Now i have to analyse R/3 job that how many years of data it is extracting (from, to) and other useful information why it is taking time for 4 hours.
Please let me know what transaction i have to use and how to check this information in R/3 side.
Thanks,

Hi........
Go to SM37 >> select the job >> Click on Job log.........Check there whether u r getting any Clue or not...........Is this load is through PSA..........? if so check the records of the First data packet...........then the Last data packet............from there u can get some idea..................
Also u can check the data in the Extractor.......is it a full load?.............Go to RSA3 >> Execute..........there check the data........
Is it a LO datasource ? if so................Go to LBWE >> Click on maintenance link for your datasource........>> Here in the Right pane u can see the Structute associated with that Datasource ...........If u remove MC from those structure name............u will get the table name..............In those tables also u can check the data...............there should be some data field.............from where u can get some idea.........
If ur Extractor is extracting data using some Function Module.............then open the datasource using RSA2.............there double click on the Exrtractor..............u will get the function module.................u can try to analyze the function module............
For Variants..................select the job >> click on Step in the top >> then Go to in the top >> Variant..............but I don't think this will help u............this will tell u that this Extraction job is part of which chain or IP......

Pg Number, File path and date automatically printed?

Is there a way to automatically print the page number, complete file path and date at bottom of each page (set to landscape)?
Thanks!

Thanks Carlos,
It looks like the work72a would work if we were using macs, but we're not...
And there is NO WAY my boss will pay $999 for the other one, even if it did work.
So, now I'm open to other suggestions. We have hundreds of clients that we do work for, and our jobs are organized in folders for each client. A lot of clients with the same name but different locations (ie., Fox Meadow OH, Fox Meadow TX), and each has a different folder. The files are named by dept and year (ie., 2012 Glass, 2012 Art). We often access old files (which, there are thousands of, because they have been organized this way for years.) We need to have the client folder on the page along with the file name (hence the file path).
The script that Carlos created is great, but there are too many steps. Open the script, change location and select info to be displayed (3 steps), close script. There are days we access 50 jobs and the script just added 5 plus steps to each job.
Is there a way to use a hot key run a script that will place the info when and where we need it and auto close the script? Or is there a way to display the full path (in the Illustrator tab?) where we can see which folder the file is in and we will manually type the folder? Or does anyone have another suggestion?

How to backup all database settings and data for SOA suite to file(s) ?

During the installation of the SOA Suite a couple of tables and schemas are created
in Oracle database through the irca.bat script.
Later the tables are filled with content by all the servers and services of the
SOA Suite.
How can I backup all these tables and SOA related stuff to one (or more)
files (for a possible later restore)?
This backup should contain only SOA Suite related tables and data.
Possible other tables (for other applications) should not be considered.
Is there a script (e.g. for sqlplus) or menu which does the
SOA database backup job for me ?
If there is no official backup script maybe someone in this forum
wrote a personal script.
Thank you
Peter

I am facing the same problem.
I have spend a few days to configure and train my Sony tablet to configure for all my remotes such as aircon and lighting. I did a backup using the Sony companion to my PC. When my tablet was faulty and serviced. But the backup did not recover the IR remote settings and codes which I programmed previously. I also tried your backup restore app but it also does not save the configuration.
It is VERY IMPORTANT for me to backup the settings.
Please provide the folders and path of where the IR REMOTE settings and personal configuration and codes trained were kept so that I could back them up. Are these path protected area that required rooted access?
Hope that Sony could update the app to include backup of new trained codes and settings and in the meantime to provide a procedure of how to backup the setting and trained IR codes with or without rooting the device.
