Need ABAP for scheduling reset batch processes.

Hi!
I need a ABAP like a report or an function module for scheduling a job which restart or reset my workprocesses/batch processes.
Every night we have to logoff all users, delete all lock entries and clear all work processes.
For the steps users and lock entries have i found solutions, but for the step of processes i can´t find anything.
I know that there are transactions like SM37..., but i only need to do this in a job.
Does anyone have experience in this case or can help me?
Best regards
Stefan Kleinrath

Hi,
please have a look at function-group STUM.

Why do I need to use GIMP to batch process?

Dear Adobe,
I'm grinding through thousands of display and template images for an online retailer. Photoshop layering and masks came in quite handy when I was making the templates
but now that it's got down to reusing those templates, I have to look elsewhere.
1 Why does every other piece of software on the market have a batch processing section, and yet you hide yours?
2. Why does Image Processor refuse to resize both horizontal and vertical, although it claims to? It actually refuses to distort the image to resize, which I actually want it to do. I had
to download GIMP to get this capability, as well as to specify the output file and change the dpi. These are all included in GIMP but not Pshop. Thanks for that. And don't tell
me to go to Actions. THat may be useful for something things, but it's hardly the optimal way to do it, recording your exact actions, and then saving or not saving, and then
seeing what happens. The way I wanted it was in GIMP, and its pathetic that 20 years in, Pshop still doesnt have a credible batch processor, or tell me where it is now.
Charge extra for that perhaps?
3.What has changed in Bridge CS6 since CS4? I see absolutely nothing different, but then output is still limited to PDF and 'WEB GALLERY' a dysfunctional glob
of code bested easily by jquery, but maybe you've impoved that end. My last experience with web gallery was so dysfunctional that I'll just stick to fixing what's
under the hood myself. I mean web gallery used to be flash, then something else that's not current. Let's just agree its a hobbyist option. Of course,
I don't know why 'output' might include other options for the batch processing of files, since batch rename does actually work, but you guys are the deciders.
4. Its too bad. This job has taught me a lot of new stuff about layering, masks, and the functionality of the pattern section, which I have no great qualms with, though,
considering how many companies you've bought, you could include tons of patterning capabilities that used to exist in these programs, but that would be too much
expenditure from MGMT. Maybe let's just fix the window views we broke in CS4, and call it a new version.
5. Thanks for forcing me to discover GIMP, who dont ask a thing. I dont really like being in there yet, but we'll see if that changes with time. They actually have some
different filters and rendering options that Adobe could've included years ago for gun, but again, there's just not enough money to go around at Adobe.

Thanks for both of you proving both that the function doesnt exist.
When the Image Processor resizes image it used the Photoshop Plug-in Fit Image to do the resize. Both height and width are resized and the image aspect ratio is preserved so the image is not distorted. That means the image will fit within the height and width used in the dialog. Only image with the same aspect ratio will fill the area. It sounds to me like you want the image the size id the height and width you entered in the dialog. In which case you need to use Photoshop features the can accomplish that. If you do not care the the image is distorted you use Image size check resample uncheck constrain as set the height and width you want to resize to. If you do not want to much distortion you can try content aware resize. That will still distort the image some what but try to maintain some areas perspective it finds object in. You can also help that process by selecting areas. If You want no distortion you need to resize the image to fill the area and mask off the excess to virtually crop the image the the areas aspect ratio. To automate that you need to use some Photoshop scripting. Knowledge is required to get the most out of Programs like Gimp and Photoshop. The function doesn't exist because of your lack of knowledge.

Help needed - ABAP for function modules and routines.

Dear BW gurus,
Hope everyone is doing great.
I gotta project recently and we are going live in 3 weeks.My BWLead is getting rolled out in a week and he has to make the knowledge transfer to me ASAP.The bottle-necking thing is I need to have a good idea about the function modules and routines.So I request our SND community to help me out with good ABAP documents for function modules,routines and query.
my mail id is [email protected]
Thanks in advance
Have a nice day

How to "save for web" via batch processing in Photoshop elements

I have a bunch of logos that need to be resized and 'save for web." How can I process these files as a batch in Photoshop elements. Many thanks!

You can batch save them as jpgs, gifs, or PNGs using Process Multiple Files, and even batch resize them as long as they are all in the same orientation and the same aspect ratio (shape), but the resulting files will be somewhat larger than you'd get with Save for Web because Save for Web removes the photos' exif data, which PMF won't. Since these are logos, there shouldn't be much difference.

Thanks in advance.

A feature I've also got in my own FTP package and very useful for monitoring logs on remote servers through our Apex applications. ;)Ditto - also rolled my own FTP package as doing wildcard file listing requires custom support depending on the type of FTP server you're dealing with. The text part of the responses differ (these are not RFC'ed) and makes parsing more complex than what it could have been.Yeah, the differing responses can be a pain, though fortunately they are far and few between. There was a bug in Chris' package in that it wasn't handling a two code response from a windows FTP server for one of the commands, but I emailed him and he fixed that. Not his fault, he didn't have a windows FTP server to test on at the time.
FTP is a pretty straight forward protocol and easy to wrap a PL/SQL package around (using UTL_TCP).Absolutely. and the RFC details almost everthing you need to handle. It was quite quick to knock up a package, similar to the code hoek has linked to.
I think there is a lot of common stuff that many of us do in this regard. Always wondered how well a proper GPL'ed open source project providing a PL/SQL development framework and libraries would do...I think there'd be a lot of arguments about what is the best way of doing things. :D

Batch processing - can I do these tasks?

Hi,
I'm trying to figure out a way to speed up processing PDF documents. I found a tutorial that talks about a batch processing which isn't in my Acrobat Standard version. However, before I can upgrade (not sure whether it's to Pro or Extended Pro) I need to know whether the batch processing can do the following:
- set the Author
- set to Bookmarks Panel and Page to make sure that the bookmarks panel opens when the document opens
- set the Page layout: to Single Page Continuous
- set to Fit page for A4 documentation
- remove any content in the Custom tab
Any thoughts as to whether this can be automated by Acrobat? I also have ARTS PDF Aerialist (for link checking so far).
Thanks,
Elizabeth

Simple answer - I have Pro 8 and it can do the open options easily - I have anothyer program to change the author though
Cheers

Please Help, Issues when batch processing Multi Frame images in Fireworks

I hope someone will know how to do this and tell me where I am going wrong.
Objective 1
I have a large number of images that all have the exact same number of frames (4) and are all exactly the same size that I want to get resized, cropped and water marked (when I say 'watermarked I mean have my websites logo pasted in a specificlocation on each frame, I have my websites logo as a seperate .png file which I copy from).
Current Process
I create a command which will crop the image then paste my companys url/log onto the first frame, move it to the correct location on the frame then copy it again and then paste it onto each of the other frames, the command then resizes the image tot he exact proportions I want.
I start a batch process and use my command, making sure that I also export from the .png to animated gif (and I edit the settings to make it 256 animated gif).
Error 1
The process described above resizes and crops my images however it does NOT put the watermark in the correct place, it seems to put it int he right place on the first frame and then in a different place on all the followingn frames thus giving the effect of the watermark jumping around. Which is obviously NOT what I want.
Question 1
Please let me know what process I should be following to correct the Error 1 above.
Objective & Question 2
I want to do exactly the same thing as shown above but this time the files have a varying number of frames (from 2 to 45 frames (or instances as CS4 seems to call them)). Is there a way to paste my logo to the to the exact same location on ALL frames?
Other information
I have tried WHXY Paste extension and I can not see how to use that to solve the issue. I have also tried 'Paste in Place' however I can not see how to use the Paste In Place extension as it is not appering in my list of commands.
Many thanks in advance for your help.
Andy

Andy, you could start a batch process which will do most of the things you are asking for. THe batch process can be done using Fireworks. The right way to start is going to Archivo / Procesar por Lotes and then follow all the different option this tool has to offer. Yes, I know I gave you the names in Spanish but that is the way I use Adobe Fireworks.
I hope this was usefull for you!

Bridge - Batch Processing has stopped working...help

I am using Photoshop for Windows in CS2. Have been for years. Work with batch processing and Web Gallery all the time...for years.
Batch Processing and Web Gallery stopped working (along with other Photoshop features). I upgraded to Windows 7, and photoshop/bridge/indesign, etc work once again.
Batch Processing and Web Gallery still don't work. When I select items Bridge and click "Tools", "Photoshop", "Web Photo Gallery" it clicks over to photoshop, as if the process is about to begin. But then Photoshop lies there doing nothing. No action menu pops up if I select "Batch" no "Web Photo Gallery" dialog box initiates if I select the gallery.
Any assistance, that can save me the $1000 on a CS upgrade, will be greatly apprecieated.
Thank you for your time.

Look in edit/preferences/scripts and make sure there is a checkmark for both Bridge and Photoshop. Without that they can't talk.

Need Help for Nokia 6500 slide

Hi all I'm A new Guy here ,
But I do really need help for hard reset my phone
I already try *#7073# But It doesn't work ,
If Anybody know to make a hard reset please help

I'v got te same problem with my 6500 Slide, is there a button combination that we have to press

How does the 6500 slide hard reset?
That's simple.
All you have to do is:
From MENU goto SETTINGS, When there scroll down and select 'Restore Factory Setting'.
There are two options in there:
"Restore Settings only"
and
"Restore all"
Select "Restore All"
When done the phone will delete every thing on the Phone memory(C:\)(contacts,picture,messages etc)
and also restore phone to its original settings and will restart.
This proceedure is mostly common on S40 phone.
Hope this explain and solve the problem.

Complicated question: dialog box-batch processing script

I am adapting the working script I found on this forum.
Script: Open files as layers in Photoshop
https://forums.adobe.com/thread/1313579
The goal of the adaptation is to include a javascript Folder dialog to set the save folder destination at run time and
use this folder destination for the remaining script batch processing functions.
Presently, the script loads a Bridge stack as Photoshop layers and saves the layered tiff using the Folder dialog.
The folder dialog is manifesting every time the script encounters a Bridge stack.
The question is what is the correct script logic to set the destination folder once at run time and keep this destination
folder for the stack batch processing.
#target bridge
var stacks = app.document.stacks;
var stackCount = stacks.length;
for(var s = 0;s<stackCount;s++){
 var stackFiles = getStackFiles( stacks[s] );
 if(stackFiles.length> 1){
 var bt = new BridgeTalk;
 bt.target = "photoshop";
 var myScript = ("var ftn = " + psRemote.toSource() + "; ftn("+stackFiles.toSource()+");");
 bt.body = myScript;
 bt.send(5);
function getStackFiles( stack ){
 var files = new Array();
 for( var f = 0; f<stack.thumbnails.length;f++){
 files.push(stack.thumbnails[f].spec);
 return files;
function psRemote(stackFiles){
app.bringToFront();
var thisDoc = open(File(stackFiles[0]));
var Name = decodeURI(app.activeDocument.name).slice(0,-4);
thisDoc.layers[0].name = decodeURI(Name);
for(var a = 1;a<stackFiles.length;a++){
 open(File(stackFiles[a]));
 Name = decodeURI(app.activeDocument.name).slice(0,-4);
 activeDocument.activeLayer.duplicate(thisDoc);
 app.activeDocument.close(SaveOptions.DONOTSAVECHANGES);
 thisDoc.layers[0].name = Name;
var tifOptions = new TiffSaveOptions();
tifOptions = new TiffSaveOptions();
tifOptions.embedColorProfile = true;
tifOptions.imageCompression = TIFFEncoding.TIFFLZW;
tifOptions.alphaChannels = false;
tifOptions.byteOrder = ByteOrder.MACOS;
tifOptions.layers = true;
var theFolder = Folder.selectDialog ("Select Folder");
if (theFolder) {
 var myFile = new File( theFolder + "/" + app.activeDocument.name);
 app.activeDocument.saveAs(myFile, tifOptions, true);
app.activeDocument.close(SaveOptions.DONOTSAVECHANGES);

I am thinking the Folder dialog is not correct for this application.
On a second thought a persistent dialog to set the save folder path and run the script from the persistent dialog can make sense.
Any ideas?

I am batch processing in PS 2014 (watermark and saving as jpeg from ps file). I get the message for some but not all 'this file needs to be saved as a copy with this option'. And then I have to save it manually. Does anyone know why this happens? (It is just a plain photoshop file, a watermark is added, then save as jpeg - the jpeg is saved to a different folder than the original photoshop file.) It happens for about 10 of 30/40 files approximately . Thank you, Kathryn

I believe I have figured it out - I need to flatten the image, even though there are no layers except for layer 0, first.

Guidance needed please for architecting a scheduled application process (Worker Role vs. VM Role)

I'm close to putting all of the pieces together for an Azure Cloud Services solution that I want to build.
My goal is to build a .NET Library (or perhaps a Windows Service or even a Console Application) that will run once a day to execute dynamic queries against an Azure SQL DB.
There would be 1-x numbers of these query sets that will need to be run during the process, and after each query set an email will be sent out containing data from the query results (which shouldn't be terribly large or processor intensive) to an email
recipient specific to that data set. I plan on using an assigned Office 365 Mailbox as the sender account and email recipients would all be in the same Exchange organization.
I haven't decided on the emailing API yet, but it may require dependencies to be installed on Windows Server (e.g. the MAPI subsystem, AKA the Mail applet in Control Panel - so I can use Redemption which is a third-party replacement for the Outlook Object
Model that doesn't require Outlook to be installed) unless I go with Exchange Web Services or the Office 365 REST APIs.
So my main question is what's more appropriate, a VM or a Worker Role?
Since the processing should only take 5-10 minutes to complete, I'd like to minimize the uptime of the VM or Worker Role and be able to turn it on when the scheduled time occurs, and turn it off when
the processing is done.
I'm also trying to understand how to fit in either the Azure Scheduler Service or the Windows Task Scheduler in the OS to auto-run my .NET application and/or Worker Role/VM.
Any guidance would be appreciated!

Hello Eric,
There is currently no Option for automatically deploying an Azure Role, running it and then Shutting it down or Deleting it. That kind of functionality is possible using the
Windows Azure service Management API which is used by the Windows Azure PowerShell cmdlets.

Batch process (set of Procedures) & schedule a package

Hi OTN Members,
Need to schedule and do a batch process for a package in Sun server environment on oracle 8.1.7.
The process is like this....
1. In a package separate procedures for each tables to upload datas,reading file.dat from a directory using UTL_FILE.
2. This batch process can run twice a day also....
3. If a source file for a procedure not there or any error how do i log..
4.File names like this "Table_Name_DD_MM_YYYY.DAT".
5.Procedure 2 IN parameters r there...one is directory and file name....?
6.For Source file directory we can user V$parameter right in PL/SQL or can handle in scripts ?
Any sample script(shell or Perl)...and do i have to install a perl compiler in SUN or by default perl compiler will be there in SUN SERVER?.
Any sample script for Batch Process...and scheduling?
Thanks.

Take a look at DBMS_JOB package.

Need ABAP for scheduling reset batch processes.
