Keeping control over large service POs
Hi everybody,
In our organization, we are implementing a shared service center, and I was wondering if you had any ideas about the handling of large service POs.
We are using a three way match for almost all purchasing. The order and receipts are booked in individual plants, and the invoices will be booked in the SSC.
A good example to illustrate the problem is transportation. Usually, a large service PO is created for a longer period of time, e.g. 6 months. When the goods receipt is booked using the invoice, how do you know the invoice is thoroughly checked? The receipient might not do a good job here, and if he/she doesn't, this will result in the payment of the said invoices.
This is a pretty significant risk, given the large number of service POs and their large values. I was hoping you might have some ideas to tackle this problem, while keeping the auditors and the purchases happy.
Regards,
Richard
If you just want to know where the allocation is coming from, it could
be possible to find that using JRA.
Create a JRA recording. Make sure the JRA recording covers one of your
large allocation events. Open the JRA recording and look at the GC
General tab.
Now, you should be able to find the stack trace for your large
allocation in the "Garbage collection call tree" pane.
If your JVM terminates due to OOME when the large allocation happens, I
don't know whether or not the GC will be part of the JRA recording.

Is there any support in Mission Control (or JRockit itself), to help identify the root cause of large transient memory allocations?
eg. There is a service request that is allocating a set of large temporary buffers (>200megs). Once the call competes, the memory is no longer reachable (is collectable).
Ideally i would like to be able to create an alert that fires if the amount of reachable memory has increase by X-megs over Y-time interval. The alert would also include a heap dump for offline analysis, or at least a dump of all the current stack traces.
A similar feature seems to be available for Weblogic.
http://e-docs.bea.com/wls/docs92/ConsoleHelp/taskhelp/monitoring/LogLowMemoryConditions.html
Is this Weblogic feature inherited from Mission Control, JRockit, or something unique to Weblogic?
Thank you.

I updated my iPhone 4 to iOS6.0.1. I now have no control over location services. Will it always be on and only activate if an application requires it? I want to be sure it will not drain the battery unnecessarily.
I found this answer in ios 4, but it worked on the ios 6 on my iphone 4:

Currently Being Moderated Re: iPhone 4 / iOS 4 - Location Services Always On
Nov 20, 2010 10:25 PM (in response to modular747)
so i actually ended up walking into genius bar today. they couldn't figure out which program was causing the glitch either, but the way they solved it was by resetting all the location service permissions altogether. for those of you who want to know how to do this, navigate to "settings > general > reset > reset location warnings". also fyi, the apple service rep told me the purple location service icon next to each app simply signifies that particular app has requested your location within the past 24 hours, not necessarily that the app is active. hope this helps those with the same problem as i had. iPhone 4, iOS 4
I will mention that I did not have the problem until I downloaded the new googlemaps, which I have deleted off my iphone. -
I hit the replace when publishing the new iweb site (so we could have control over changes - last one was not an apple based site) but new site name is attached to old via a forward slash and underscore after our www address. Makes it very messy with a very long web address. Original address now followed by iweb site name followed by name of first page? Went for iweb as not that computer literate - all going so well?! Cheers for help in anticipation. Have to get off to work now but be great end to week if we could be sorted tonight. Rupes
Well yes of course, if you try and publish through iWeb there won't be an option to publish without your site folder which is exactly why I told you to download Cyberduck and use Cyberduck to upload your site to your server having published your site from iWeb to a local folder. That is what you need to do if you don't want your site name to be included in yoru url.
It would have been easier also if you had used Cyberduck initially to connect to your server and delete your old site yourself - at least that way you would have deleted the correct files rather than relying on your hosting service to do it and doing it incorrectly.
Download Cyberduck and then select the publish to a local folder option from iWeb and then use Cyberduck to upload your site to your server, but rather than uploading the whole site folder and separate index file, upload ONLY the contents of your site folder and then your url will be http://www.domain.com/page_name.html.

How to get more control over DVR recordings
Looking for some advice on how to make sure the DVR records (and keeps) the episodes I want.
An example:
I want to record a series that is still producing new episodes, but is also in repeats in syndication. For example, Big Bang Theory. This has new episodes each week on CBS, but has about twenty or so repeats each day on TBS.
Due to the high number of repeats, any new episodes pretty quickly get overwritten by the repeats. So is there a way to record both first-run and repeat episodes, but prevent the first-runs from getting overwritten before I can watch them?GRubinstein1 wrote:
I have no idea if the format has recently been changed or what the issue is, but when I try to get more control over my DVR recordings, I can't. What I mean by that is that I cannot alter "First-Run and Repeats" to "First-Run Only," I cannot specify the specific channel to record on, I cannot say how many episodes I want it to keep, etc. Here is a step-by-step guide of what I do and what the problem is:
I press the "menu" button on the remote. I scroll down to DVR. I select the option of "manage series recordings." I select one of my shows. I'll use "Masters of Sex" as my example. I select "Masters of Sex." It's at this point where I get a problem. When I select "Masters of Sex," the only option I get is to cancel the series. No option to only record first-runs. No option to keep only 3 episodes instead of 5. No option to change it so it saves until I manually record it. Nothing. I've tried not selecting "Masters of Sex" and instead using the right arrow button to scrol over to the settings of the show. But nothing happens when I do that. It doesn't give me access to these options. This is incredibly frustrating because not only do the shows delete automatically at a certain point, but it records EVERY SINGLE AIRING OF EVERY SINGLE SHOW I RECORD. This means I have to go through several times a day to the "Scheduled Recordings" section and delete scheduled recordings of shows I have already seen. It's absolutely ridiculous, particularly for cable shows, which air episodes frequently throughout the week. Please help me if you can.
Put simply, I cannot change the settings on how I record each show.

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. -
Hi, I'm trying to re-install the latest iTunes on my Gateway w/ Windows XP. I had to update it a while back to put songs on my brother's iPod, but my computer froze halfway through and nothing has worked right since.
I keep getting the message "Service 'Bonjour Service' (Bonjour Service) failed to start. Verify that you have sufficient privileges to start system services."
I looked through older discussions that told me to go to right click My Computer - Manage - Services and Applications - Services - Find Bonjour and restart it.
Well, the only option that I can click on is Start. When I do, it says "Windows could not restart the Bonjour Service service on Local Computer. Error 2: The system cannot find the file specified."
Where do I go from here? Help would be greatly appreciated, I've been trying to fix this for over a year now with no dice. Also, I cannot do a factory reset (last effort) because it says the administor's account is disabled and I do not have the disc.Sorry if double posting is a no-no here, but I forgot to add that I've already tried disabling Spyware Doctor.

Acrobat 9: Control over font in text box
Versions: OS X 10.8.5 with Acrobat Pro 9, latest patch.
I am experimentally preparing a four day training course by adding my instructor information to a PDF of the slide show. There are only 850 slides, so it makes sense to experiment with this small document.
All is going well. I have created some custom stamps. Acrobat has only crashed twice, losing not more than two hours work as a result. I am optimistic I will be good to go in 10 more days.
I have just copied some test into a text box and it copied as black and blue text with a larger font than the standard red font that I have been seeing until now.
It occurs to me that this implies there may be some control over the text. I realize that Acrobat is not meant to be a document preparation tool, so I hunted around somewhat for a way to change the text box text to not-red, gave up and I have been putting up with it until now.
However, there are implications (but no clearly stated solutions) that there is a way to change the font, size and colour of text in text boxes.
Do you know how? I cannot work it out, nor can I find a solutoin. I can see that the Commenting preference pane offers Small Medium and Large text. There does not seem to be any other control other than the style (italic, bold, superscript, subscript) that is offered in the context menu.
Hints? Thoughts?Pryanja.
Thanks again. If offers a dropdown for Colour, a box for style (plain, bold italic etc) and a button marked more, but they seem to do nothing at all. They don't change what I type, and they don't affect selected text. Looks to me tha they just take up some toolbar space.
Is it possible that it does not work on Mac? -

PS keeps crashing (with large files from ACR)
Is anyone else having problems bringing large files in from Camera Raw and PS keeps crashing over and over?*
Using CR2 Raw images working in Bridge and ACR, I was trying out the Tools/Photoshop/Process Collections in Photoshop which made my machine crash the most. The folder in Bridge is 8 GB and has about 230 images, so it was gathering tons of images and making collections. It just may be my machine and OS, need to update. I have not had a chance to read link in prior message above, I will asap. I was worried about putting the beta on my machine, I will read into this some more, thank you for your reply. Love a lot of the new enhancements very excited about some of the simplest changes made.
I am on Mac OS X 10.6.8 -
Keeping two very large datastores in sync
I'm looking at options for keeping a very large (potentially 400GB) TimesTen (11.2.2.5) datastore in sync between a Production server and a [warm] Standby.
Replication has been discounted because it doesn't support compressed tables, nor the types of table our closed-code application is creating (without non-null PKs)
I've done some testing with smaller datastores to get indicative numbers, and a 7.4GB datastore (according to dssize) resulted in a 35GB backup set (using ttBackup -type fileIncrOrFull). Is that large increase in volume expected, and would it extrapolate up for a 400GB data store (2TB backup set??)?
I've seen that there are Incremental backups, but to maintain our standby as warm, we'll be restoring these backups and from what I'd read & tested only a ttDestroy/ttRestore is possible, i.e. complete restore of the complete DSN each time, which is time consuming. Am I missing a smarter way of doing this?
Other than building our application to keep the two datastores in sync, are there any other tricks we can use to efficiently keep the two datastores in sync?
Random last question - I see "datastore" and "database" (and to an extent, "DSN") used apparently interchangeably - are they the same thing in TimesTen?
Update: the 35GB compresses down with 7za to just over 2.2GB, but takes 5.5 hours to do so. If I take a standalone fileFull backup it is just 7.4GB on disk, and completes faster too.
thanks,
rmoff.
Message was edited by: rmoff - add additional detailThis must be an Exalytics system, right? I ask this because compressed tables are not licensed for use outside of an Exalytics system...
As you note, currently replication is not possible in an Exalytics environment, but that is likely to change in the future and then it will definitely be the preferred mechanism for this. There is not really any other viable way to do this other than through the application.
With regard to your specific questions:
1. A backup consists primarily of the most recent checkpoint file plus all log files/records that are newer than that file. So, to minimise the size of a full backup ensure
that a checkpoint occurs (for example 'call ttCkpt' from a ttIsql session) immediately prior to starting the backup.
2. No, only complete restore is possible from an incremental backup set. Also note that due to the large amount of rollforward needed, restoring a large incremental backup set may take quite a long time. Backup and restore are not really intended for this purpose.
3. If you cannot use replication then some kind of application level sync is your only option.
4. Datastore and database mean the same thing - a physical TimesTen database. We prefer the term database nowadays; datastore is a legacy term. A DSN is a different thing (Data Source Name) and should not be used interchangeably with datastore/database. A DSN is a logical entity that defines the attributes for a database and how to connect to it. It is not the same as a database.

HI i would like to know the GR process for Services pos (standard )
thank you
ashHI Ashok,
During Vendor code creation in T-code XK01 of Purchasing Data Screen under Control Data TAB the following option to be tick marked are as follows.
GR - Based Inv.Verif. to be tick marked
Srv.Based Inv.Ver to be tick marked
then the purchase order creating for that vendor and the PO - Item Detail menu Invoice TAB the following option automatically ticked marked based on the above vendor creation option ticked are as follows.
GR-Bsd IV
S.Based IV
After that PO released, if supply PO - GRN made using T-code MIGO and if service PO - Service Entry Sheet (SES) made using T-code ML81N. Based on the above option tick marked GR process internally made for service PO's.
Hope, it is very useful for you.

GR Based IV Tick for SERVICE POs
Hi Friends,
How can we avoid GR Based IV Tick tht is defaulted by system for SERVICE POs with item category D.
When i tried to remove this Tick, system given error message, ": Combination of GR/IR Control not allowed for valuated GR"
I want to remove this GR Based IV Tick for service PO to enable successful automatic removal of invoice blocking for such POs when GR is posted for required balance qty in system after 1st invoice is blocked by system for Price variance.
in short, how can we have SERVICE PO without GR Based IV Tick ?1 ) when we remove GR Tick& GR Based IV Tick,
If you dont want to post GR and GR Based IV Tick, is required for post the invoice.Practically this combination is not possible.
2 ) When we tick Non valuated GR & Remove GR Based IV Tick
.if you want to post GR and you dont want to any accounting document for perticular GR.Remove GR Based IV Tick will help you PO based invoice verfication. -
Third party PO control over quantity?
Dear Gurus,
Firstly, user is creating a sales order with quantity as 98 units..
After this, he is creating PO with 98 units and after that he is changing the quantity to 100 units.
Now, he wants to control over this quantity so that it will not allow him to change the quantity.
how can i restrict user to not allow to change quantity so that the sales order qty and po qty will be same?
Thanks..Hi
Once you have created the PO you can only change the PO quantity manually.
You can block as it was explained here but it will affect all POs.
Do you create the PO against a SO?
What you can do is use an user exit to control that. But you need to know the SO which generates your PO.
Regards

I have a MacBook Pro with OS X 10.7.5 on it. When I'm connected to WIFI I sometimes lose control over my trackpad, even though I may not be surfing the web on safari. Is there a virus on my computer or is there something wrong with my track pad. Ive only had the computer for about 3 months.
It's not a virus, and it's also not a hacker unless a friend or relative with access to your machine is playing a prank on you. As to what it is, there are a number of possibilities. See:
My mouse keeps moving around on its own, as if someone is remotely controlling my Mac! -
Having issues with my MacBook. Even when the internet is disconnected, apps are still closing and opening on their own. I sometimes do not have control over my cursor.....any suggestions?
There are several possible causes for this issue. Please take each of the following steps that you haven't already tried until it's resolved. Some may not be apply in your case.
1. Follow the instructions in this support article, and also this one, if applicable. A damaged or defective AC adapter could be the cause, even if it's the right kind.
2. Open the Bluetooth preference pane in System Preferences and delete all pointing devices other than the trackpad, if applicable. Disconnect any USB pointing devices. By a "pointing device," I mean a peripheral that moves the cursor, such as a trackpad, mouse, trackball, or graphics tablet. A plain keyboard is not a pointing device.
3. Start up in safe mode and test, preferably without launching any third-party applications. If you don't have the problem in safe mode, but it comes back when you restart as usual, stop here and post your results. Do the same if you can't start in safe mode. If there was no difference in safe mode, go on to the next step.
4. Reset the System Management Controller.
5. If you're using a Bluetooth trackpad, investigate potential sources of interference, including USB 3 devices.
6. A swollen battery in a portable computer can impinge on the trackpad from below and cause erratic behavior. If you have trouble clicking the trackpad, this is likely the reason. The battery must be replaced without delay.
7. Press down all four corners of the trackpad at once and release. If there's any effect, it's likely to be temporary, and the unit needs to be serviced or replaced.
8. There's a report that a (possibly defective) Thunderbolt Ethernet adapter can cause the built-in trackpad of a MacBook to behave erratically. If you're using such an adapter, disconnect it and test.
9. There's also a report of erratic cursor movements caused by an external display that was connected but not turned on.
10. If none of the above applies, or if you have another reason to think that your computer is being remotely controlled, remove it from the network by turning off Wi-Fi (or your Wi-Fi access point), disconnecting from a Bluetooth network link, and unplugging the Ethernet cable or USB modem, whichever is applicable. If the cursor movements stop at once, you should suspect an intrusion.
11. Make a "Genius" appointment at an Apple Store to have the machine and/or external trackpad tested.
