Limited Sales Office in drop down

All,
At present we have 5 sales office in the live system now management redifined Sales Offices due to which one new sales office needs to be created ,2 will become obselete due to merging and 1 will remain as it is
Now sales office which become obselete should not be in usable state menas user should not see it in drop down option at the time of creation of customer and at the time of created of Sales Order.
How to control this ?
We cannot delete them as transactional data lying with them.
Please suggest.

Hi
You can remove the assignment of sales office with Sales area so that they will not be displayed while creating Sales order.
In case if you do not want to remove the assignments of the Sales office from the system you can rename the Sales office as do not use so that they are not picked by the order entry team.
Hope this helps you.
Thanks,
Arun

How to include a new Z Partner Function in Sales order header drop down lis

Hello SAP experts,
We have come up with a new requirement to include a custom Partner Function-ZI in dropdown of SO header-Partners field.
Current scenario- Presently we are maintaining this partner function ( Say ZI- Institute ) in customer master data-Sales area tab.There could be more than one partners under this PF in master data. While entering sales Order, all partners associated are displayed in Header- partners tab, where only SP, SH, BP, PY partner functions are displayed.
Requirement- 1. Is to provide Drop down of this ZI-Institute partner function (which I did not find presently) in SO header-partners field and user should be able to provide one of partner function as available in Customer master ( as there are more than one partners that can be set in Customer master data but user need to be able to provide ONE of this ZI partner fucntion in DROPDOWN of PF tab in SO header ).
2. In addition, How can I link this new partner function in related sales reports against that particulat order and invoice?
Kindly suggest your valuable inputs as what should be the procedure to get this.
Many thanks in advance.

Hi,
Go to partner determination by VOPA
OR
IMG >> SD >> Basic function >> Set up partner functions >> set up partner function for sales document header
click on partner function and Maintain partner function ZI and back
Then select your existing partner determination procedure (Standard is TA) and click on PARTNER FUNCTIONS IN PROCEDURE and add partner function. and make it mandatory so even user forget to mention then at the time of saving system can remind user
Then double click on PARTNER DETERMINATION PROCEDURE ASSIGNMENT
Assign partner procedure to sales document
Now when you creating sales order go to header partner tab and enter you institute partner number
For sales order and invoice report
Execute this report by selecting partner function ZI in VA05N and VF05 respectively

Create hierarchy for sales district info-object in following way.
Sales District         Text Node                          Level 1
Sales Distirct         Characteristics Node         Level 2
                              value 1 = ZBHDEL
                              value 2 = ZBHYD
sales Office          Characteristics Node         Level 3
                              values will be according to district (include diff sales offices for diff districts in level 2)
restrict district to this hierarchy in planning level and plan according by both approaches (create 2 seperate layouts):
Top down - to plan at main node i.e. sales district
bottom up - to plan at sub node i.e. sales office

I have a new computer with Windows 7 professional, Office 2007, Adobe XI. I have just created a word document and tried save it as a PDF but the PDF option doesn't appear in the drop down menu. Any ideas please? Thank you.

I have a new computer with Windows 7 professional, Office 2007, Adobe XI. I have just created a word document and tried save it as a PDF but the PDF option doesn't appear in the drop down menu. Any ideas please? Thank you.

What is "Adobe XI" - Reader, or Acrobat?
But either way, 'Save as Adobe PDF' is a Word function, independent of what Adobe software you have installed.

Maintain a drop down as sales order item text

Hi,
I need to add another text type to sales order item text,. However instead of entering text isnt it possible to have a drop down where users can select a text?
Any ideas?
Thanks
Keshi

It is not possible to select a text using drop down menu. You only can add a text type and populate the text during transaction.
Alternatively you can do the following.
Create some text elements and maintain texts for them. say 5 texts.
Now create a text type in normal text determination.
Using some user exits, you can automatically decide based on your requirement the text element from where the text has to be populated for this text type.
This should work fine for you.

Limitation of the entries in the drop down box of Interactive Report

Hi all,
Our team are currently using interactive report as an easy way to inquire the data stored in the database.
Our entire table had close to 2000 entries, and we notice some of the entries are not displayed in the drop down box when we cllck on the column heading. Probably the first 1000 entries showed up in the drop down box. The rest don't show up.
The drop down box is the one with the button sort ascending, sort descending, hide column, control break, and a textbox for user to type the data.
We are just wondering is this a number being set in Oracle Apex, and whether we can modify it.
FYI. we are using Apex 4.0, and Oracle 10.
Thanks,
Thomas.

Hi Thomas,
please have a look at http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E17556_01/doc/user.40/e15517/limits.htm#BGGEIHBG
The workaround is to define a custom LOV for the filter.

New Firefox upgrade limits my drop down options & I don't want to move browsers!

Ever since I upgraded to the new Firefox, my drop down options are limited for example when I need to select a birth date it only shows up to the 20th.
Makes it really difficult for me to do everything especially for university.. I have to use another computer or browser but I really don't want to move from Firefox so I'm holding on!
I have tried taking off add ons, uninstalling and safe mode. Nothing worked. It only happened after I updated.
Please help!

Are you able to scroll from 11 down using the down-arrow key?

New version of Thunderbird has limited the size of the drop-down that shows my open emails. How do I change it back to show all open ones?

There is an icon in the upper right corner that, when clicked on, drops down a list of open emails (i.e. a list of tabs). In the previous version of Thunderbird it would expand (vertically) to list all emails. However now it is a set vertical size and this is terrible and basically defeats the purpose. The purpose of that drop down was so that I did not have to scroll through all my open tabs to find an email. Now I have to do that again, as it is a set vertical size with arrows up and down to scroll through the list. How do I get the old functionality back, or solve my problem of somehow seeing a list of all open tabs? Thanks!

Is there a setting in about:config that controls the length of the alltabs list? I would look for such a thing, and change the setting if it is there. A setting of -1 should make it limitless.

ListViewWebPart has limited to 50 views item in Selected View drop-down property

Hello, we are currently in a context where we have over 70 view in one document library. When we add this document library into a custom webpart page, and choose "Modify Share Web Part". the "Selected View" drop down only contain the first 47 view + 4 default view. We are unable to chose view #48 to 70.
Does it exist any config to show more then 47 view in the "Selected View" drop down property of a "ListViewWebPart".
N.B.: We know 70 view is a lot, but we are in a context where we needs those 70 views and they are named a easy way so the end-user can easily choose from them.
Thanks!

Also having the same problem.
The views in the dropdown are sorted alphabetically so the first 50 are selectable.
A workaround:
- create a new view called aaa which is an exact copy of the view you want to display in the LVWP
- now select the aaa view in the LVWP to display

Linking a library to a list - filtering data per selected drop down / check box item

Good day,
I am rather new to SharePoint and have run into a dilemma. Is it possible to link a library to a list, then create a parent-child relationship between the the department (list) to document (library)?
Example - I have a library that contains 100+ documents, the library is filtered using groups/subgroups.
IT
-> IT TX (30 docs)
-> IT WI (10 docs)
Biz Ops
-> Biz Ops WI (8 docs)
-> Biz Ops CA (5 docs)
In the list I created I have departments as a required field, and a dropdown tool that shows the 5 departments that contain items that need to be grouped together. (Biz Ops, IT, HR, Sales, and Compliance)
I have linked the library of documents to the form (list), using "Lookup (information already on this site)". All the documents in the library appear in the selection box within the list. However is it possible to first select a department which
then filters documents only tied to said department? So at the beginning of the list you choose the department you wish to browse the documents, then it filters out all documents not related to that department?
My apologies if this is long winded and confusing. Your help is most appreciative.
Cheers.

Hi,
According to your post, my understanding is that you wanted to filter the corresponding documents from a Document Library when you selected a department in a List.
I recommend that you can follow the steps as below to implement it in your environment.
1. Create a new Web Part Page and add the Document Library and the List web part into it.
2. Click the List web part, click the current web part’s drop-down arrow, choose Connections, Send Row of Data To, and then choose the Document Library web part.
3. Click the Document Library web part, choose the “All Items” view from the Selected View, click the current web part’s drop-down arrow, choose Connections, Get Filter Values From,
and then choose the List web part.
4. Open the Configure Connection – Webpage Dialog, choose the “Department” column from the Provider Field Name drop-down list and choose the “Group” column from the Consumer Field
Name drop-down list.
5. Click Apply, OK button, save the Web Part Page and test it in your environment.

DW CS4 Horizontal Spry drop down menu not displaying correctly in Internet Explorer 8

Hi,
I have created a horizontal Spry drop down menu in Dreamweaver CS4 with my own background images. I have done various modifications to the CSS script to accommodate the style and feel needed; including making the main buttons' height twice the size of the sub menu buttons and some alignments. It seems to work different depending which browser is used.
It works well in Google Chrome.
It works well in Firefox with the exception that if any of the buttons are clicked, thereafter a thin black line is diplayed horizontally across center of the top main buttons when the mouse rolls over them. I would like to correct this but is not nearly as bad as the problem I'm having in Internet Explorer 8.
Here is my biggest concern and I would greatly appreciate if anyone can shed some light on this matter.
Once opened in Internet Explorer 8 the main navigation buttons appear as they should. IE8 prompts me the following: "To help protect your security, Internet Explorer has restricted this webpage from running scripts or ActiveX controls that could access your computer. Click here for options..". Once I allow IE8 to run scripts or ActiveX controls, the background image disappears and only shows on any menu or submenu button when the mouse rolls over that particular button. Can someone please help.
The menu can be seen at work by clicking on this link:

SpryMenuBar.js
This file handles the JavaScript for Spry Menu Bar. You should have no need
to edit this file. Some highlights of the MenuBar object is that timers are
used to keep submenus from showing up until the user has hovered over the parent
menu item for some time, as well as a timer for when they leave a submenu to keep
showing that submenu until the timer fires.

Hello Nancy,
I was troubleshooting For the next 8 hours after my post here and eventually I got it right, I uploaded the files to the test server and at the time did not have the chance to post the solution here. This is why, as you saw, it is working correctly now. Both the CSS and HTML files needed modifications. While working on the code I had to run IE8, Chrome and Firefox simultaneously and refresh all three after every change in the code because what would fix the problem in one would cause a problem for the other.
In addition to the problems listed in my original post, there were also other graphical issues in IE8, such as; the main menu buttons without sub-menus would only display at half their size vertically. The border around the buttons would not display despite that the background images were rendered in Photoshop as flattened JPEGs with boarders as part of the background image. Being so, I removed all borders from the CSS script.
By the way.. the IE8 security measure did pop up while working from the server.
Anyhow for those of you who are experiencing similar problems you can take a look at the working code bellow and compare it to the initial code. I've included detail comments on every line I have changed, modified or added.
Good luck.. as I know it can become a complicated task when creating custom Spry menus.
<b>Here is the finished CSS script</b>

Sales office data missing after patching in CRM

Hi,
We have CRM 4.0 for internet sales.
Recently, we patched our Development and QA CRM systems from SAPKU40009 to
SAPKU40016.
Immediately after the patching, we see that the Sales office information in the BP (Sales area- organization tab) is missing. We have only one Sales org and Dist channel with division not active. All the sales office belong to the same sales org. Nothing has changed w.r.t org model before and after patching and all the org units are checked for determintation.
Everything was working before the patching. Just after patching, we find the sales office information blanked out in the BP and as well as the drop down list is empty.
I can see the sales office table entries for all the BPs in CRMM_BUT_SET0140. But when ichange the BP data (for some other field) and save, the table entries get deleted as i am not able to assign the sales office any more.
We have not buffered the attributes. I tried that also and ran the report HRBCI_ATTRIBUTES_BUFFER_UPDATE, but it is of no use.
Can somebody help?
Thanks
Shankar

Hi ,
What you can do is,
Create a request for a material whose Sales Area data is missing in
CRM , and perform the request load in transaction:R3AR4.
And please check whether sales area data flows to CRM.
Put a filter in txn:R3AC1, to download single material or material
range.And before performing an initial load in txn:R3AS,please make
sure that sales area data is missing in CRM.Now, perform the initial
load in txn:R3AS.And please check whether sales area data flows to
CRM.
Check the filter settings in transaction R3AC1 for
object MATERIAL and please make sure that it would bring down all
the expected materials from R/3 along with the sales area data. I guess there is some
filter setting which is blocking it.
Please check the entries you have maintained in table MVKE - the entries
for the sales data maintained here must match with the ones maintained in the
filters.
thanks & regards,
Krishnen

Sales office not available and SHOULD not be used for determination

Hi experts,
I am encounting an issue with the organizational model.
We do not want the sales office to be determined through the org model, we just want to be able to add it to the right sales areas in BPs or transactions.
I have build ang enhanced org model where the sales offices and groups are assigned to more sales areas. I have not marked the determination on the office and groups, since I do not want to determine this automatically and since if I mark this, my pop-ups for the transactional data determination becomes impossible to overview.
However, if I do not mark the determination in the sales offices and groups, they are not availeble in the drop downs for Bps and transactions.
Can someone please advise how to solve this?
Thanks

Robert,
     As soon as an EntryProcessor or EntryAggregator get delivered to the server nodes, it will get executed regardless of the requestor's state.
     In regard to long-running operations the only thing you have to be conscious about is a number of worker threads allocated for such a processing. Since there is a single client thread issuing a request, it would suggests allocation as many worker threads (across the cache server tier) as there are client thread (across the presentation/application tier).
     Regards,
     Gene

I installed a new printer and Acrobat Pro is not listing it as an option in the drop down box. Other apps are working. Printer is networked, platform is Windows.

sorry, other apps are working fine and finding the new printer. HP Officejet 8620.

I've rebooted numerous times, reloaded the software twice, spent 4 hrs on the phone with HP and 2 with Adobe. No luck. It simply doesn't show the new printer in the drop down menu for Pro or Reader and yet shows time in all in Office, Paint, Web options. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated! Thanks!
