Last time entry for a project

Hi,
I have to get the last time entry of each project.
I am using the below logic.
Join PROJ and PRPS table to get the list of WBS elements for all projects.
for each of the projects, get the latest work date from CATSDB .
But CATSDB table has 3 crores entries in QA.
above logic is taking 2 hours to execute.
Please suggest any better logic for the same.
Regards,
Kiran

Hi Kiran,
Are you doing a SAP Query or are you writing an ABAP program? Consider using logical database PSJ (display using transaction SE36) - this already joins PROJ and PRPS for you...then look at joining with the CATSDB table.
Kind regards,
Tammy

Accounting entries for a Project purchase order - reg

Hi,
I am processing a purchase order with Account assignment category as " Y " which requires a WBS element in the account assignment tab of Purchase order. A G/L account(XYZ) is defaulted in to the field G/L account under the tab account assignment.
There is no GR based invoice verification hence no Goods receipt (MIGO) is required for this purchase order.
When i am trying to process the invoice verification, the accounting enties are as follows
Vendor                         1000
GR/IR account              0.000
G/L Acct (XYZ)              1000
But in actual the GR/IR account will zero value should not be displayed in the accounting doucment.
Could any body suggest me how to eradicate the second non valuable entry duirng invoice verification in MIRO transaction.
Please expedite.
Regards,
RitiG

Hi
Can you check account assignment category Y with P - is there anything uneven?
I hope you are doing PO based IV - it means when you check Goods receipt tab in PO item details delivery tab, invoice entries will be vendor (credit) and GR/IR (debit). In case Goods receipt indicator is not ticked, entries will be vendor (credit) and expense GL account (debit). Can you check both of these?
Thanks

Restrict Time Entry for Future Date in Portal

Hi Gurus,
My scenario is to restrict users from entering future date attendance in Portal.
I know the configurations for restrictiong the user from scrolling to future week.
But in my scenario users will be able to scroll to future weeks but should be restricted with an error message while trying to enter future time.
Please let me know if you have any suggestions.
Thanks.
Regards
Sairam Maharaj S
Please search in the ESS forum as I remember responding to a similar scenario some time back. Thread is moved.
~Suresh

Hi Srini,
Thanks for your reply.
I have achieved this by deselcting Release Future Time option. But user wants the future time to be restricted even from getting saved. Can I make changes to the default information message "1 out of 1 future time not released" to an error message so that the user will not be able to save. If so please let me know if this can be achieved from any configuration of messages or it should be done from the programming side.
Thanks.

CAT2 for Time Entry (single and multiple)

Hello all,
We have been using CATW for time entry and CAT2 for multiple time entry and have security set up accordingly. We're thinking of moving to CAT2 for all time entry but need to make sure we can configure to allow single time entry for those reporting only their own time, and multiple time entry for those reporting their own as well as others. I think this may be doable between a combination of security and IMG/Data Entry profile work. Does anyone have any experience using CAT2 in this way?
Thanks,
Doug

First create a data entry profile/CVR through SPRO for a time sheet,
Then assign this profile to a user through user parameter CVR (Cats Variant for Recording) in the table USR05.
This CVR is used in CAT2 to access the time sheet corresponding to the profile assigned to the user.
Thanks

Need a VB-Script that read a txt-file and only the lines that are new since last time

Hi,
I need help to write a VB script that read all new lines since the last time.
For example: The script reads the textfile at specific time, then 10 minutes later the script read the file again, and it should now only read the lines that are new since last time. Anyone that has such a script in your scriptingbox?
cheers!
DocHo
Doc

Based on the excellent idea by Pegasus, where is a VBScript solution. I use a separate file to save the last line count read from the file, then each time the file is read I update the line count. Only lines after the last count are output by the program:
Option Explicit
Dim strFile, objFSO, objFile, strCountFile, objCountFile, strLine, lngCount, lngLine
Const ForReading = 1
Const ForWriting = 2
Const OpenAsASCII = 0
Const CreateIfNotExist = True
' Specify input file to be read.
strFile = "c:\Scripts\Example.log"
' Specify file with most recent line count.
strCountFile = "c:\Scripts\Count.txt"
' Open the input file for reading.
Set objFSO = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
Set objFile = objFSO.OpenTextFile(strFile, ForReading)
' Check if the line count file exists.
If (objFSO.FileExists(strCountFile) = False) Then
    ' Initial count is 0, so all lines are read.
    lngCount = 0
Else
    ' Open the line count file.
    Set objCountFile = objFSO.OpenTextFile(strCountFile, ForReading)
    ' Read the most recent line count.
    Do Until objCountFile.AtEndOfStream
        lngCount = CLng(objCountFile.ReadLine)
    Loop
End If
' Read the input file.
lngLine = 0
Do Until objFile.AtEndOfStream
    ' Count lines.
    lngLine = lngLine + 1
    strLine = objFile.ReadLine
    If (lngLine >= lngCount) Then
        ' Output the line.
        Wscript.Echo strLine
    End If
Loop
' Close all files.
objFile.Close
If (lngCount > 0) Then
    objCountFile.Close
End If
' Ignore last line of the file if it is blank.
If (strLine = "") Then
    lngLine = lngLine - 1
End If
' Save the new line count.
Set objCountFile = objFSO.OpenTextFile(strCountFile, _
    ForWriting, CreateIfNotExist, OpenAsASCII)
objCountFile.WriteLine CStr(lngLine + 1)
objCountFile.Close

CATS Time Entry - Charging time to a different cost center

We are looking at using CATS for time entry for our salaried non-exempt employees. Some of these employees charge their overtime to a different cost center. For example, normally their overtime is charged to their own cost center but periodically they help another group and need to charge the overtime to the other group's cost center. In the CATS profile where you select the fields you want to be available for input, display, etc., I see cost center as an option. However, when I select it as a field for input, it does not appear on the timesheet. I see there are other cost center fields (receiver cost center, sender cost center) but I thought these had more to do with work orders (not sure of that, though) and work orders are not used for this group of people. Currently, the time is being charged to an alternate cost center when the time administrator enters the overtime via PA30 and then selects the 'Cost assignment' button to record the appropriate cost center. I would appreciate any information/guidance you can provide. Thank you.

Hi Kathleen,
We are trying to do the same thing so I understand exactly what you are asking. We made the sender cost center field an input field via the IMG - Cross-Applications Components> Time Sheet> Time Recording> Choose fields> - select data entry section and look for sender cost centre - field name CATSD-SKOSTL - ensure "input" is selected.
Eventhough we have been able to enter an alternative cost center with an attendance (i.e., different from the employee's cost center saved on IT0001), it is not being transferrred to HR (does not appear on attendance infotype) therefore payroll does not pick-up the cost center with the attendance hours and it is not posted to FI. Payroll continues to use the employee's home cost center.
Have you been able to get any further with this issue?
You can contact me directly if you like - 1-613-599-8600 - ext 243.

How implemenataion process going for a project in an orgn?

hi friends
i am deva
how implemenataion process going for a project in an orgn?

Dear Deava,
During an implementation project you follow 5 phase.
1.Project preparation: In this you will know your team members and you will have kick meeting. You will decide the time frame for the project also.
2.Blue print: In this stage you will map the business scenarion.The client will give the requirement(AS-IS) and you will map in sap(TO-BE). If there is any development you need to do the GAP analysis.
3.Realization/Testing:In this stage you will configure in the development server and test the configuration you have made in quality server.
4.Final preparation: In this stage your configuration is done . You will get the sign off from project manager.
5.Go live & Support: In this stage you will upload all your developments in the production server.Then you will golive and stay in the client place for sometime for support and solving few queries.
The above 5 stages are followed in any project.
If your happy with the answer award point for me
Regards,
R.Francis Noel Manoj

Conflict exists with another time entry

Hi, a user tries to submit a vacation leave for April 1 2009 in ESS and gets the following error:
Conflict exists with another time entry from 16.12.2008 to 19.12.2008
I checked her infotype 2001 records and the there are no time entry for April 1 2009
How come the error message is saying the conflict is with a date in 2008 when she is entering a vacation request for 2009.
Any suggestions how to resolve this?
Thanks.

there is an absence from 12/19/2008 to 12/26/2008 but it was processed successfully so there shouldn't be any conflict there but the system seems to be thinking there is.
Another thing - the absence for 12/19 to 12/26 is not a vacation but sickness with certificate. The user is trying to do a vacation time for April 14 and system is saying it conflicts with 12/16 to 12/19 dates (which there weren't any dates in infotype 2001).

Time Entry ADI Uploads

I have been searching for detailed information on how to use ADI uploads to mass load time entries for testing purposes and have not found anything useful.
We use the timekeeper screen to manage time and I need a way to mass upload test entries. Does anyone have a good document that describes this or could you provide me the steps on how to go about executing this?
Thanks!

you would have to call Deposit APIS to mass upload time.

Project Managers to know when a task has been updated for the last time

Hi,
I would like know if there is any timestamp feature in Project Server 2007, so that it can be possible for Project Managers to know when a task has been updated for the last time.
Thanks in advance

Hi,
If you are using the My Tasks to drive the task updates then you can use the 'Applied Requests and Errors' available under 'Go To' in the Task Updates area. Here the PM can find when requests have been approved and how many updates he/she received for a
particular task (by clicking the task name) etc.
Hope this helps

you can bump into probs only when it comes to sheer amount of data:
for instance cheap 'digital frames' are sortof over-whelmed, if you try to playback 720/30p in high quality.

My itunes won't update. It's looking for 10.6.0.40. Last time it tried to update, I downloaded the msi to my desktop and I deleted it within the last six months. Now I can't uninstall or update.

The last time my iTunes couldn't update. I used support from Itunes and downloaded it my desktop. My mistake. Because without thinking, I deleted it within the last six months from my desktop, without thinking I'd need it later. For the past month I've needed to update my Itunes and it can't find the msi. Now, my Ipad, my kids' ipod touches and my iphone can't update. Especially the ipod touches, iphone and work ipad have already updated to the OS6. And, now they won't work with this outdated iTunes. Help.

(1) Download the Windows Installer CleanUp utility installer file (msicuu2.exe) from the following Major Geeks page (use one of the links under the "DOWNLOAD LOCATIONS" thingy on the Major Geeks page):
http://majorgeeks.com/download.php?det=4459
(2) Doubleclick the msicuu2.exe file and follow the prompts to install the Windows Installer CleanUp utility. (If you're on a Windows Vista or Windows 7 system and you get a Code 800A0046 error message when doubleclicking the msicuu2.exe file, try instead right-clicking on the msicuu2.exe file and selecting "Run as administrator".)
(3) In your Start menu click All Programs and then click Windows Install Clean Up. The Windows Installer CleanUp utility window appears, listing software that is currently installed on your computer.
(4) In the list of programs that appears in CleanUp, select any iTunes entries and click "Remove", as per the following screenshot:
(5) Quit out of CleanUp, restart the PC and try another iTunes install. Does it go through properly this time?

Back up iPhoto 08' for the first time (different than last time I did it)

The last time I backed up my photo library was before I got iPhoto 08'. I know I should have done it a long time ago and backed things up at least once a week but I kinda got busy. Since my last backup I have also upgraded to Leopard, which yes I did back up my hard drive when I did that, but I also had the advantage of having an IT person personally helping me.
Today when I went to back up my library things were different. Rather than the old "iPhoto Library" folder that use to be in the pictures section, I just see a single file named "iPhoto Library" and when I click it, it launches iPhoto.
So my question is how do I back up my library now, and what ever happened to the "Original" and "Modified" folders? What I would really like to do is save my current library on an external with everything intact. Events, Albums, the order I added them in, etc. I want to clear iPhoto out completely and then re-import my current library.
I should probably mention that on the external hard drive right now is a back up of my old library from before my upgrade to Leopard and it still has the old setup of the iphoto folder and then inside that is the "Original" and "Modified" folders. How should I handle this, just delete it?

With iPhoto 7 (iLife 08) the old iPhoto Library Folder is now a Package File. This is simply a folder that looks like a file in the Finder. The change was made to the format of the iPhoto library because many users were inadvertently corrupting their library by browsing through it with other software or making changes in it themselves.
Want to see inside? Go to your Pictures Folder and find the iPhoto Library there. Right (or Control-) Click on the icon and select 'Show Package Contents'. A finder window will open with the Library exposed.
Look familiar? Standard Warning: Don't change anything in the iPhoto Library Folder via the Finder or any other application. iPhoto depends on the structure as well as the contents of this folder. Moving things, renaming things or otherwise making changes will prevent iPhoto from working and could even cause you to damage or lose your photos.
What I would really like to do is save my current library on an external with everything intact. Events, Albums, the order I added them in
Simply copy the iPhoto Library from the Pictures Folder to the External. That's it.
I want to clear iPhoto out completely and then re-import my current library.
I'm afraid that doesn't make a lot of sense to me. If you back up a library then trash it, then restore the selfsame library, how does that constitute a “clear out”?
I would delete nothing until I had the Maintenance project finished.
As an Fyi
There are many, many ways to access your files in iPhoto:
*For Users of 10.5 and later*
You can use any Open / Attach / Browse dialogue. On the left there's a Media heading, your pics can be accessed there. Command-Click for selecting multiple pics.
Uploaded with plasq's Skitch!
(Note the above illustration is not a Finder Window. It's the dialogue you get when you go File -> Open)
You can access the Library from the New Message Window in Mail:
Uploaded with plasq's Skitch!
*For users of 10.4 and later* ...
Many internet sites such as Flickr and SmugMug have plug-ins for accessing the iPhoto Library. If the site you want to use doesn’t then some, one or any of these will also work:
To upload to a site that does not have an iPhoto Export Plug-in the recommended way is to Select the Pic in the iPhoto Window and go File -> Export and export the pic to the desktop, then upload from there. After the upload you can trash the pic on the desktop. It's only a copy and your original is safe in iPhoto.
This is also true for emailing with Web-based services. However, if you're using Gmail you can use iPhoto2GMail
If you use Apple's Mail, Entourage, AOL or Eudora you can email from within iPhoto.
If you use a Cocoa-based Browser such as Safari, you can drag the pics from the iPhoto Window to the Attach window in the browser.
*If you want to access the files with iPhoto not running*:
For users of 10.6 and later:
You can download a free Services component from MacOSXAutomation which will give you access to the iPhoto Library from your Services Menu. Using the Services Preference Pane you can even create a keyboard shortcut for it.
For Users of 10.4 and later:
Create a Media Browser using Automator (takes about 10 seconds) or use this free utility Karelia iMedia Browser
Other options include:
1. *Drag and Drop*: Drag a photo from the iPhoto Window to the desktop, there iPhoto will make a full-sized copy of the pic.
2. *File -> Export*: Select the files in the iPhoto Window and go File -> Export. The dialogue will give you various options, including altering the format, naming the files and changing the size. Again, producing a copy.
3. *Show File*: Right- (or Control-) Click on a pic and in the resulting dialogue choose 'Show File'. A Finder window will pop open with the file already selected.
You can set Photoshop (or any image editor) as an external editor in iPhoto. (Preferences -> General -> Edit Photo: Choose from the Drop Down Menu.) This way, when you double click a pic to edit in iPhoto it will open automatically in Photoshop or your Image Editor, and when you save it it's sent back to iPhoto automatically. This is the only way that edits made in another application will be displayed in iPhoto.

TD
