Managing DCs in NWDI for different releases in same Client Project

Hi all,
We are working for a client and as part of the first phase of the project, we have developed Portal applications for one geography of the world. Currently maintenance and support for this phase 1 is going on. At the same time, phase 2 of the project has started for a different geography of the world. For this phase, the same Portal applications are going to be used along with enhancements.
My query is how should we manage these DCs at the same time for:
1) doing enhancements as part of Phase 1 support work; and
2) enhancements for Phase 2 new requirements
We cannot put hold on the Phase 1 support enhancements till the Phase 2 goes live. I understand that we would have to create a copy of the current DCs for development in Phase 2. So my first question is can the DCs from one track be copied (exactly) to another track in NWDI? If yes, how?
Once we have done this, we are still confused about how to merge these two parallel developments going on when the right time comes (i.e. Go Live for Phase 2). Please advise on this as well.
Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Ankur

  • Setup Central Contract Management SRM 7.01 with differing release versions

    Hello experts,
    OSS note 1268821 explains how to configure the central contract management between a SRM 7.0 and  an ERP 6.04. So far so good, but how should it be handled if there are differing release versions such as ERP 6.04 and ERP 6.03? I guess that a technical split (xml services/ ALE distribution) is necessary?
    Assuming that there are some backends with differing release versions and in some cases with differing master data (not supported by central master data client) would you always go via PI? Independent of release version, technology and master data.
    Could you give some further detailed informations how to configure such a scenario? What has to be done to transfer existing contracts from an ERP 6.04 into SRM CM component (migration concept)?
    Thanks!!!
    KR Thorsten

    Hi Thorsten
    The minimal ECC version is 6.0 EHP4, Central Contracts require certain business functions in ECC to be activated and as these are included within ECC EHP4 you won't have these available in lower version. Therefore you won't be able to operate central contracts in such an ECC system.
    You would either have to go with patching these systems or go with GOA's for these systems.
    Operating central contracts via PI or SOA i believe provide almost similar functionality. SOA however requires an SRM EHP1 system and ECC EHP5 back-end to operate whilst central contracts configured via PI can be operated onwards from an SRM 7.0 and EHP4 system.
    I can't help you on your migration issue, maybe someone else can.
    Kind regards,

  • Different Class for Different Release Group

    Dear All,
    I want to use different release class for a new group i am creating for Purchase Order Release.

  • Ldt files for different templates have same data

    i was asked to get .ldt files for different templates. I used FNDLOAD to download the files using xdotmpl.lct file. all the .ldt file when open in text has the same data. Am I doing something wrong. If the files are same why do we need seperate .ldt file for each template.

    But if you developing something and you are going to version it, then
    In case of single LDT
    ==================
    Its easy as you said, we can down load all def into one file.
    But, if one of the template def. got changed, all data gets downloaded unnecessarily .
    Single file , so you can say its easy .
    In case of multiple LDT
    ==================
    But, if one of the template def. got changed, then download that one only into ldt.
    Multiple file , little more effort is needed to create them.
    But more easy to maintain,

  • Sharing files for different users on same computer without duplicating

    Newbie here, I got my 1st mac (in ten years) last week and have been really enjoying it. I set up 3 user's accounts and wanted to share files such as iphoto and itune for all users. So I put my pictures in the shared folder, however, when I opened iphoto in each user's account, I had to import all the photos for every user, which resulted in duplicated files on each user's folders. I have tens of thousands of photos and don't want redundant files eat up my hard drive space. For this reason I'm holding off sharing my itune files.
    I'm wondering if there's a way to allow access for different users without making duplicates.

    Preferably only admin can edit/import
    Well this makes things very easy and is the way that iPhoto is intended to share. In your Admin account, go to iPhoto -> Preferences -> Sharing and enable Sharing. Note that you can share an entire library or just individual albums. Leave iPhoto running and use Fast-User Switching to move to the other Account(s). In Launch iPhoto and go to Preferences -> Sharing and enable 'Look for Shared Photos'. The main library will turn up in the Source (or left-hand) pane of the other iPhoto.
    Remember that for this to work, the Admin account must be logged in and iPhoto must be running there.
    I don't really care as long as there's no redundant files.
    Define 'redundant'. You do realise that iPhoto is a database, with built-in image viewer, lightweight editor and version control. Version control means that if you modify a photo then iPhoto makes a copy, including the changes, and keeps the Original. This way you can always Revert to Original from the Photos menu. Many people switching to iPhoto are confused by this at first. If you don't want version control I strongly suggest using a different app. There a many, many image viewers for the Mac.
    As to your point comment about One-Touch DVD. I'm not familiar with that piece of Software, but every DVD (and CD) that you burn is assembled on the HD first, then burned. That assembly is a cache file and should be trashed on completion.
    As to disk space: you need to keep about 10 gigs of space on the Start-Up disk for Virtual memory, Temp files and other OS uses. If you do get an external at some point in the future it is possible to run both iPhoto and iTunes from it to free up space on the internal. Just check the help or post back to the relevant forum before moving them. It's not difficult, but there is a procedure that needs to be followed.

  • Three iPods to be used for different collections by same owner

    Hi.
    I'm the happy owner of three iPods: an older iPod (maybe second or third gen 40 GB), a Nano, and the newer Video. I'd like to reset all of them to factory reset - erase all content and associations. Then, I'd like to reset iTune's knowledge of them.
    I would like to create different subsets of my music from iTunes so I can use them for different purposes. They have different capabilities (storage limits, video, etc.) so this will help me optimize their features as well.
    Does somebody know how to do these things?
    Thanks.

    After some more research, I developed the answer I was looking for. Essentially, use the iPod updater to reset the iPod. Sometimes, you have to quit iTunes when it is updating, even if it is in the middle of updating. Then after reseting the iPod with the iPod updater, when iTunes starts, assign unique names to each iPod.

  • R12 Order Management Setup and API for Pick Release

    Hi All,
    I am doing pick release using Release Sales Order form of Order Management of Oracle Apps R12. Pick Release process is going fine , but the the status of lines are not getting updated. If we explicitly do reservations before pick release and then do pick release from Release Sales Order form, line status is being updated as pick released. If we do pick release from Shipping Transactions Form, then there is no need of explicit item reservations. Please suggest me, is there any setup steps to be done, so that i will tell the functional guys to do it.
    Also I am executing the WSH_PICKING_BATCHES API for create batch and release batch, the same thing i.e the pick release process is working fine but the line status is not getting updated.
    Is Release Sales Order form and Shipping Transactions Form uses different API's to do the pick release?.
    If we have to do explicit Item Reservations, what is the API used?
    Thanks and Regards,
    Mahesh
    Edited by: magu on May 1, 2009 11:59 AM

    I figured out the problem. In Release Sales Order Form, we have to uncheck the Prior Reservations Only check box, so that the items will be first reserved and then pick release.
    Thanks and Regards,

  • How to manage seasrch directorie​s for different TestStand projects and different users?

    I am working with several others and we share some number of directories and at the same time own different directories for each projects. Problem rises when there are duplicated VI names are created by two users working on two different projects. Search path has to be manually changed to avoid loading a wrong VI. Sometimes user forgets to change and load a duplicated VI name. Is there a better way to manage th search paths?

    LegalEngineer -
    Matt's comments above regarding the SearchDirectories object only apply to TestStand 3.0.
    Under TestStand 2.0.1, you have to manage the settings in the config file Testexec.ini. You can also have read access to the search directories by accessing the .Data.SearchDirectories array property that is returned from Engine.ConfigFile().

  • Lens profiles for different bodies, but same sensor size?

    I downloaded LR 4.1 RC today.  Some of my lenses are not profiled in LR so I then downloaded Lens Profile Downloader Preview 3 to see if there are any profiles available for download.  For some lenses I found profiles, but they were not done on the same body that I have (same sensor size though).   Can I use profiles for lenses if they are for a camera body that is different than mine, but still the same sensor size?  My understanding is that wiht a lens profile LR will automatically correct distortion, vignetting, and CA.  Will that work if my body is different than the body used to profile the lens?  Thank you.

    You can find this statement:

  • Constructing Calculated Measures in MDX for different measures using same columns in a fact table

    Hello,
    i have a fact table with 2 columns corresponding to dimensions Dim1, Dim2. In the same table i have 4 other columns Value_Type(int), INT_VALUE(int), FLOAT_VALUE(float), TEXT_VALUE(string). There are a number of measures which are identified by Value_Type and
    depending on their nature could be written in one of the 3 columns (INT_VALUE(int), FLOAT_VALUE(float), TEXT_VALUE(string)) Let's say Measure1 with Measure_Type=1 is age, 2 is account balance and 3 is Name for clarity. There could be other measure types that
    use these 3 same columns for data. So the sample fact table looks like this
    Dim1 Dim2 Measure_Type INT_VALUE FLOAT_VALUE TEXT_VALUE
    10 10 1 25
    10 10 2 2000,34
    10 10 3 John
    10 20 1 28
    10 20 2 3490,23
    10 20 3 Frank
    My task is to write an MDX query for each Dim1, Dim2 combination which returns all 3 measures in the same row. The idea is to construct a calculated member for each Measure that returns value from the right field. For example for Measure1 we take INT_VALUE
    with measure_type=1. The problem is i don't know how to construct MDX query for these calculated members. Can you please help me?
    So my final goal is to write an MDX query that returns all measures in one row for each set of Dim1, Dim2
    SELECT [Measure1], [Measure2], [Measure3] ON COLUMNS,
    NON EMPTY [Dim1].[Dim1].[Dim1].Members*[Dim2].[Dim2].[Dim2].Members ON ROWS
    FROM [Cube]
    Dim1 Dim2 Measure1 Measure2 Measure3
    10 10 25 2000,34 John
    10 20 28 3490,23 Frank

    Hi Kosmipt,
    I would combine the "INT_VALUE", "FLOAT_VALUE" and "TEXT_VALUE" columns into one with STRING data type for the fact table. And there should be one dimension to store the Measure_Type informations. Then in cube, you can write MDX scope for every one of
    "Measure_Type" dimension members. For example,
    scope(
                [Measures].[M]
        [DimMType].[MType].&[1]= CINT([Measures].[M]);                                                                                                                             
    end scope;
    Once the cube is built by the above way, you can write MDX like something like the following to achieve your purpose.
    WITH member [Measures].[Measure1] AS ([DimMType].[MType].&[1],[Measures].[M])
             member [Measures].[Measure2] AS ([DimMType].[MType].&[2],[Measures].[M])
             member [Measures].[Measure3] AS ([DimMType].[MType].&[3],[Measures].[M])
    thanks,

  • Managing Shared iPads and iPod Touches for different Departments

    What would be the best way to manage multiple iPads used for different departments in an educational setting.  I work in an educational setting and have recently purchased three iPads and 5 iPod touches for the sharing of four different departments each having both common and  different uses and app desires?  What are some best practices for managing accounts and workflow? Ex;  Workflow for updating, syncing and maintenance?  What about credit card accounts, does each iPad profile need to have a credit card account attached to it?  What questions do we need to think in terms of creating a standard build without compromising the individual needs that each department may want to have on the iPads.  Any advice would really help?

    Hi Carolina,
    I too would love to know how to do this. I think you can manage multiple ipads/ipods from one computer, but don't know whether you can actually have different setups for apps on various ones.
    If you get any answers, would you please share with me?

  • Creation of forms in Custom list for different departments in share point online .

    Hello ,
    We are using office 365 E3 plan in our organization.Recently we got a requirement from the management to create forms for different departments.I will explain a bit more on requirement.
    We have three departments A, B & C .We want to create a form in such a way ,fields varies based on their respective department .If a form has 30 fields to fill , dept A fills
    only first 10 fields which they need and will forward the form to next dept to fill remaining fields.Here when Dept A forwards the form the first 10 fields has to be hide for other depts .when Dept B and C logged into their accounts to fill the form only their
    fields need to be available in the form and remaining options has to hide .After filling all fields from different dept . After filling the forms Dept A can see all the fields to check the data .
    Any one can please help me out how to initiate the process to meet this requirement.

    The simlest approch for you is to create 3 different list with 3 different forms. But you can update their connection string to store the data(xml) in same list or different list 
    Or try below:
