  • Blueprint for trading company

    hi guru's

    Edited by: dev on Dec 30, 2008 12:15 PM

    Hi Dev,
    Let me give you a brief understanding of what a business blueprint is. BBP is mothing but a detailed documentation of the organizations business process which it intends to do through SAP.
    Before doing the BBP it is quite logical that the consultants need to understand the business processes of the company as it is done withpout SAP or in legacy system. This study and the documentation thereof is called "AS-IS study" document. The further reengineering of the processes depending on the best practices with an intent of doing the same in SAP is called "TO-BE document.
    Traditionally both AS-IS and TO-BE document used to be aprt of BBP but these days there had been enough of advance tools such as Solution Manager through which the buisness blueprint is generated.
    Hope with this bac\kground you would have understood that the BBP of a pharma comapny can never be used as a BBP for trading company because the two of them will have completely different business processes.
    You can use the headings of the same BBP but the contenets will be entirely different for a trading company.
    Hope this helps. Let me know if you need any other help.

  • Company Code creation for non SAP transaction company

    Hi Expert,
    Need your advice. 
    The user requesting to create customer/vendor master data for a new inter company for their AR/AP posting.
    However this inter company do not have full setup of SAP configuration (eg. GL/Cost center/Profit center).
    So, could we just create a new company name for this inter company in Enterprise structure without activate the company code in SAP : Financial Accounting > Financial Accounting Global Setting > Company Code > Set Company code to productive ?
    We even adviced the user to use the 1 time vendor/customer code for the AP/AR posting (due to transaction is not frequent happen in the inter companyu).   But they reply prefer create as a new company code for their inter company, for better tracking purpose.
    How can we handle this kind of situation ?
    thanks.
    rgds,
    tee

    Hi,
    if you want to use the new company as an  intercompany business partner / trading partner (to assign the company in customer/vendor master data) just maintain the COMPANY in SAP (not the company code). This is done in
    IMG: Enterprise structure / Definition / Financial Accounting / Define company. Each company defined here can be used as trading/business partner in customer/vendor master data to create postings where BSEG-VBUND contains the IC-number.
    Best regards, Christian

    Hello Jacky,
    To combine all the answers above and have a topic-based reply please go through the below steps:
    #1. Inactivate the current extension field Company (I see it is actually a String value and this is not what you want to have)
    #2. Go to Setup -> System Setup -> Extension Reference Types
    Check if you already have a Company reference type
    If not, create a new Extension Reference Type for Class Company. Fill in all required information.
    #3. Create a new Extension Attribute

  • Warehouse Management for Third Party Logistic Company

    Dear All,
    I need your input for the following scenarios:
    Company having 5 legal entities
    One Legal entity ( X) is Mnaufacturing Cosmetics
    Legal entities ( A, B & C ) are the Distribution Companies
    5th legal entity ( Y ) is 3PL for the 3 Distribution Companies, A, B & C. Y has a warehouse which stocks the goods of the 3 distribution companies A, B and C. Inventory and goods still belongs to A, B & C
    We need to implement warehouse management for Y ( 3 PL) company
    Our proposition is to create warehouse structure which will address all the 3 legal entities ( A, B & C). So essentially the assumption is that warehouse is above the company code
    We wanted to know the folloiwing:
    1)If Y has to service all A, B and C at the same time and it needs to plan the routes for the deliveries created across the legal entities, how is this possible?
    2) How will this impact the shipment planning, pick pack and the shipment cost?
    Thanks in advance.

    I would assume you have separate sales orgs and distribution channels for A, B and C.
    But you would have to tie them together at a higher level may be at the comp code level and plan the supply chain from a higher level.
    A good forecasting tool will help in distributing and managing inventory across the 3 different distribution companies.
    There has to be some type of segregation of distribution between the 3 companies either at geographic level or by volume or something else. Otherwise it will be a real complex business planning and forecasting process if the 3 companies overlap in all aspects.
    Hope this helps.
    Good Luck.

    The SAP Software Partner Program is an established program that encompasses all types of qualified application vendors with certified integration and broadly targets all types of software applications and tools that complement SAP solutions.
    The Powered by SAP NetWeaver Partner Program is a value-added addendum to our partner programs that is intended for vendors who specifically certify solutions as “Powered by SAP NetWeaver.” A separate, platform-centric program, the Powered by SAP NetWeaver Partner Program does not require pre-enrollment in the SAP Software Partner Program. The program accommodates the special needs of both a platform ecosystem and vendors who provide solutions based on and certified for the SAP NetWeaver platform.
    Independent software vendors (ISVs) can create innovative, high-impact solutions and sales opportunities for the SAP customer ecosystem by becoming “Powered by SAP NetWeaver” and immediately helping customers lower IT investment costs and risks.
    How do I join the Powered by SAP NetWeaver Partner Program?
    Please contact us directly at [email protected].
    For general information about Powered by SAP NetWeaver, take a look at the resources available at the SAP Developer Network (SDN) site at http://sdn.sap.com.
    Will SAP ensure that other partners (and SAP) will not offer solutions that compete with mine?
    The Powered by SAP NetWeaver partner program is open to all enterprise software vendors who wish to certify and run their solutions on SAP NetWeaver. Part of being an open ecosystem is open and fair competition among partners, and between SAP and partners. SAP cannot guarantee exclusivity of individual partner solutions, nor can we guarantee that we won’t offer competing solutions.
    What are the requirements for vendors to join the Powered by SAP NetWeaver Partner Program?
    To qualify to become a member of the Powered by SAP NetWeaver Partner Program, you must meet the following minimum criteria:
    Have at least one developer trained on SAP NetWeaver technologies.
    Deploy your solution according to one of the Powered by SAP NetWeaver qualified certification scenarios and certify it with the SAP Integration and Certification Center (SAP ICC). Qualified Powered by SAP NetWeaver integration scenarios:
    Certification of SAP NetWeaver (Web) Application Server (SAP NetWeaver AS, compliant with J2EE or ABAP) and SAP NetWeaver (Enterprise) Portal, or
    Certification of XI-Adapter with full integration in SAP (NetWeaver) Exchange Infrastructure (SAP NetWeaver XI), or
    Certification of XI-Content integration in SAP NetWeaver XI in combination with SAP NetWeaver Portal (XI Content certification can additional be certified against certain industry standards)
    Have at least two sales resources trained on SAP NetWeaver sales messaging.
    Have an assigned contact person.
    Attend a minimum of one SAP customer event each year.
    Actively support positioning SAP NetWeaver as an open technology platform.
    Adhere to SAP logo and branding guidelines.
    What specific benefits will I receive if I join the Powered by SAP NetWeaver Partner Program?
    The Powered by SAP NetWeaver Partner Program offers many benefits. By becoming a certified Powered by SAP NetWeaver partner, you and other certified ISVs will be able to share knowledge and collaborate with SAP at the most cost-effective level to develop, integrate, and deploy world-class solutions that are supported by SAP business planning, enablement, and go-to-market resources and that drive innovation and growth. Another benefit of solutions that are “Powered by SAP NetWeaver” is their inherent flexibility. Enterprise Services Architecture, the SAP blueprint for service-oriented business solutions, allows you to integrate people, information, and processes and create solutions that enhance and extend current touch points while maintaining open standards and interoperability with other platforms.
    ISVs that are certified Powered by SAP NetWeaver partners can reduce their customers’ total cost of ownership (TCO) and risk by adopting the platform that is quickly becoming the de facto standard among the Global 1,000: the mySAP™ Business Suite family of business solutions, which are powered by SAP NetWeaver.
    The following are some of the benefits of the Powered by SAP NetWeaver Partner Program.
    Technology Benefits
    Development package
    SAP NetWeaver test and development licenses (available)
    SAP NetWeaver training (available)
    Two days of consulting support (available)
    Remote consulting (available)
    Sneak preview of new SAP NetWeaver technology and early participation in SAP partner go-to-market initiatives
    Marketing and Sales Benefits
    Use of Powered by SAP NetWeaver logo
    Sales kit templates, such as solution brief
    Inclusion in the SAP Partner Directory, available to SAP field personnel, customers, and partners
    A prominent web site profile
    Access to the online/downloadable SAP NetWeaver Partner Playbook for ISVs
    Press release support announcing customer wins (optional)
    Active promotion of Powered by SAP NetWeaver partner solution into SAP channels
    Opportunity to participate in SAP events, such as SAPPHIRE and SAP TechEd
    Exposure to SAP installed base
    Inclusion in the SAP NetWeaver Partner Solution Catalog
    As a Powered by SAP NetWeaver partner, how will information about my certified solution reach SAP customers and account executives?
    SAP provides many avenues for members of the Powered by SAP NetWeaver Partner Program to communicate the availability of certified products through our sales channels, including the use of marketing materials and events. All members are given the opportunity to establish a high-profile presence on SAP.com that highlights their Powered by SAP NetWeaver solutions. SAP also provides a series of templates for building collateral and demos that are pushed out through the SAP intranet to the entire SAP global field sales force. In addition, SAP makes the library of Powered by SAP NetWeaver solutions available to customers through both online and printed materials distributed by SAP. On occasion, SAP will hold seminars, Webinars, and road shows with select partners to co-market the partners’ Powered by SAP NetWeaver solutions.
    What are the major reasons an ISV should switch now from Oracle, BEA, or Microsoft to SAP NetWeaver?
    Most ISVs will support more than one platform. We believe that SAP’s unique position as a true Applistructure provider makes SAP NetWeaver compelling as a primary platform of choice for ISVs who are looking to make full use of Enterprise Services Architecture and realize the potential of web services.
    What does it cost to become a member of the Powered by SAP NetWeaver Partner Program?
    There is no fee to join the Powered by SAP NetWeaver Partner Program. There are, however, costs associated with individual elements of the program, including certification, training, and test/demo software licenses, when needed.
    What does the Powered by SAP NetWeaver certification process entail?
    Several options exist for third-party applications to become Powered by SAP NetWeaver and achieve integration certification with the Powered by SAP NetWeaver branding. Current opportunities include the following:
    Portal Integration
    All Powered by SAP NetWeaver endorsed solutions have a certified integration into SAP NetWeaver Portal, usually via certified business packages.*
    *[exceptions are SAP NetWeaver XI adapters and some ABAP add-ons]
    J2EE Applications
    J2EE applications are certified for deployment on the J2EE Engine in SAP NetWeaver AS.
    ABAP Add-Ons
    ABAP add-on applications are certified for deployment on the ABAP stack of SAP NetWeaver AS and proper packaging via the ABAP add-on assembly kit. Some SAP NetWeaver Portal integrations may be accomplished via SAP GUI for HTML instead of the business package integration mentioned above.
    SAP NetWeaver XI Adapters
    SAP XI adapters leverage the easy and efficient integration of third-party applications on the process and content level via the SAP NetWeaver Exchange Infrastructure component.
    SAP NetWeaver XI Content
    SAP NetWeaver Exchange Infrastructure offers a complete EAI solution that integrates SAP business system applications as well as non-SAP business solutions (A2A and B2B scenarios). SAP XI content includes all information and knowledge necessary to enable the integration of applications and business processes (collaboration knowledge). Additional certification of XI Content for interoperability with industry standards is also available.
    Details of the certification process can be found in the accompanying Powered by SAP NetWeaver Partner Program presentation.
    What technical assistance will I receive along the way?
    We offer three types of technical assistance:
    The SAP Developer Network (SDN) web site: SDN is a community of fellow developers who work with SAP NetWeaver technologies. Please join this community to participate in online forums, Webcasts, and Weblogs around SAP NetWeaver. On SDN you will also find a dedicated SAP ICC Web site containing documentation materials for all integration scenarios above.
    SAP Education: SAP education offers basic training for SAP NetWeaver and its different components. Please check the ICC web site on SDN for recommended training classes.
    For companies with a valid certification agreement with SAP ICC: SAP assigns an SAP ICC technical consultant(s) to each ISV to provide integration-certification specific education and knowledge transfer in SAP NetWeaver. SAP ICC offers integration consulting and can provide certification testing either remotely or on-site at the SAP ICC certification lab.
    What software and licenses do I need?
    We provide free trial licenses of software components for development and testing (J2EE engine, SAP NetWeaver Portal, SAP NetWeaver Developer tool, and portal development kit (PDK) on SDN).
    SAP sales offices provide in-house licenses – for example, ABAP development workbench and SAP Partner Connectivity Kit for SAP NetWeaver XI adapters.
    The ICC provides hosted test systems, SAP XI and back-end SAP ERP systems suitable for XI Content certification
    How long will it take to complete the Powered by SAP NetWeaver certifications?
    The complexity of the application and the integration scenario you select generally determines the timeline. For J2EE deployment, our experience indicates that the average time it takes for certification is three weeks. SAP NetWeaver Portal and iView window and business package integration takes another three weeks. Previous experience integrating with enterprise portals via iView windows or portlets and deploying on J2EE application servers has proven helpful. The duration may therefore greatly differ from vendor to vendor. As a rough estimate for ABAP add-on and SAP NetWeaver XI adapter certification, approximately two to six months are needed to complete a project from registration to publication.
    We currently run our application on the IBM WebSphere Application Server (or the BEA WebLogic platform), and customers are very happy with that. Why should we support SAP NetWeaver AS, which is newer and less well-known?
    ISVs can reduce their customers’ TCO and risk by adopting a platform that is quickly becoming the de facto standard among Global 1,000 customers: mySAP Business Suite, powered by SAP NetWeaver. Additionally, SAP NetWeaver is the technology foundation for all new SAP products going forward. As such, it will be implemented at more than 60,000 global SAP installations. Partners can take advantage of this rapidly growing ecosystem by providing customers with solutions that can quickly integrate with SAP NetWeaver.
    You should also browse through the information in the SAP/J2EE migration kit.
    Why are there both “Powered by SAP NetWeaver” solutions from SAP and “Powered by SAP NetWeaver” partner solutions?
    SAP is using SAP NetWeaver as the technology platform to power all SAP solutions, including mySAP ERP, mySAP CRM, SAP Industry Solutions and SAP xApps. Partners can take advantage of the large and growing installed base of SAP NetWeaver, and leverage the platform that is already installed, thereby lowering the implementation costs of their “Powered by SAP NetWeaver” solutions and lowering the customer’s TCO (total cost of ownership). SAP-built “Powered by SAP NetWeaver” solutions will therefore run side-by-side with partner-built “Powered by SAP NetWeaver” solutions.
    What is the difference between Powered by SAP NetWeaver solutions and the SAP xApps portfolio of packaged composite applications?
    Except for SAP NetWeaver XI adapters, a certified Powered by SAP NetWeaver solution can be almost any type of enterprise application that runs on SAP NetWeaver AS and integrates with SAP NetWeaver Portal as the user interface. On top of that, the SAP xApps packaged composite applications meet the requirements of Powered by SAP NetWeaver and are consistent with the architecture, features, and functions of a true composite application.
    SAP xApps composite applications combine web services and data from multiple systems in an application design made possible by the SAP Composite Application Framework tool within the SAP NetWeaver platform. This framework includes the methodology, tools, and run-time environment to develop composite applications. It provides a consistent object model and a rich user experience, and it gives developers a productive way to create composite applications on top of a set of heterogeneous applications. In addition, SAP xApps composite applications are uniquely differentiated in that they are innovative and highly complementary to SAP applications.
    Where can I find more technical information about SAP NetWeaver?
    SDN is a knowledge and collaboration environment for the SAP community that is developing and implementing within the SAP NetWeaver technology platform. You can find it on the SDN homepage.
    For information on SAP ICC, go to “Services” on SDN and select “Integration & Certification.”
    SAP NetWeaver Portal Business Package Integration
    What is required for a business package to pass certification?
    All requirements of the business package certification are specified in the test plan, which can be requested from your SAP ICC. The technical requirements for successful certification of a business package include:
    Support single sign-on (SSO) to SAP NetWeaver Portal (where applicable).
    Adhere to the SAP NetWeaver Portal look and feel (branding)
    Provide full support for at least one web browser that is also supported by SAP NetWeaver Portal.
    What tools can I use to develop a business package?
    We recommend using SAP NetWeaver Development Studio as the integrated development environment (IDE) for your development. In addition, SAP provides the Portal Development Kit (PDK), which provides a wealth of documentation, tutorials, and tools to help you with your content development. The PDK for the Java platform, as well as the PDK for the .NET platform, can be downloaded free from SDN for SAP NetWeaver Portal 5 (only Java) and SAP NetWeaver Portal 6 - see the SDN Download Catalog.
    Our application does not require authentication. Do we still need to support SSO requirements for business package certification?
    No. The basic idea behind the SSO requirement is to eliminate the need for further manual authentications for an end user who has already logged on to SAP NetWeaver Portal. If your back end (and thus the business package) does not need to authenticate users, this requirement does not apply to your business package.
    How can a business package support SSO with SAP NetWeaver Portal?
    A business package can implement SSO with SAP NetWeaver Portal in either of the following ways:
    SSO based on user mapping, where the portal user is mapped to another user in the external system of the business package. (For information on user mapping-based SSO, see the SAP Library.
    SSO based on SAP logon ticket, where the business package retrieves the information about the logged-on user in SAP NetWeaver Portal and verifies it so that the external system can authenticate the user. (As part of the PDK 6.0, please see the javadoc for the class com.sap.security.api.ticket.TicketVerifier as part of the user management service APIs.)
    See the SSO-related Weblogs on the SAP ICC homepage on SDN.
    J2EE Deployment
    What versions of the J2EE standard does SAP NetWeaver support?
    SAP NetWeaver supports two versions of the J2EE standard:
    J2EE 1.2: SAP NetWeaver AS 6.20
    J2EE 1.3: SAP NetWeaver AS 6.40
    What Java Development Kit (JDK) versions does SAP NetWeaver require?
    Two JDK versions are required:
    SAP NetWeaver AS 6.20: JDK 1.3.1 or higher version, below JDK 1.4
    For supported platforms, please contact the SAP ICC.
    SAP NetWeaver AS 6.40: JDK 1.4.2_07 or higher version below JDK 1.5
    SAP supports the following platforms (latest operating system patches as of March 2005):
    Solaris SPARC 32 Bit + 64 Bit
    Linux 32 Bit + 64 Bit (Itanium)
    Windows 32 Bit + 64 Bit (Itanium)
    NOTE: On Windows 2003 server, please make sure you have installed Microsoft Hotfix 841176, to be found at http://support.microsoft.com/?id=841176
    For up-to-date requirements, please contact the SAP ICC or visit the SAP ICC homepage.
    What do we need to do to have our J2EE application certified?
    Certification of deployment on the J2EE Engine in SAP NetWeaver AS has two basic requirements:
    First, the third-party J2EE application must be successfully deployed onto the J2EE Engine in SAP NetWeaver AS.
    Second, after deployment, the application must run as expected based on a mutually agreed-upon test plan.
    How can I deploy my application into the J2EE engine in SAP NetWeaver AS? Does the certification require that we use a particular method?
    You can use any of the deployment methods provided by SAP for certification. However, the deployment process will differ, based on the version of the J2EE Engine in SAP NetWeaver AS that you use.
    For J2EE Engine 6.20, a J2EE application can be deployed onto SAP NetWeaver AS in four different ways, as documented in the deployment manual.
    For J2EE Engine 6.40, refer to the “Deployment: Putting It All Together” section in SAP online help for a detailed explanation of the different deployment methods in version 6.40 of the J2EE engine and SAP NetWeaver AS.
    What enhancements does version 6.40 of the J2EE engine in SAP NetWeaver AS offer versus 6.20?
    Find out how version 6.40 of the J2EE Engine in SAP NetWeaver AS improves on 6.20.
    Are there any advantages to using SAP NetWeaver AS to develop J2EE applications that run in an SAP solution-based environment (compared to using IBM WebSphere or BEA WebLogic)?
    The broad customer base of SAP that has installed the SAP NetWeaver platform can select your J2EE application, which can be deployed and run on the J2EE engine. No other non-SAP/J2EE application server is needed.
    How difficult will it be to port my J2EE application that currently runs on IBM WebSphere or BEA WebLogic to SAP NetWeaver AS?
    SAP NetWeaver AS is fully J2EE-compatible; if your application was developed following the J2EE specifications, the porting of your J2EE application to SAP NetWeaver AS should be very easy. You should also browse through the information in the J2EE migration kit.
    What if I run into problems during the porting/deployment of my J2EE applications to SAP NetWeaver AS?
    We recommend that you join SDN and consult its forums and documentation. Here you will find a wealth of experience in installing SAP NetWeaver, porting, and so forth from your fellow developers. If you have a contract for consulting or certification with SAP ICC in place, a designated SAP consultant would help you resolve the problems.
    ABAP Deployment
    How does an ABAP application become certified as Powered by SAP NetWeaver?
    The ABAP application (add-on) needs to meet all of the following criteria:
    The add-on must be ABAP-certified on the ABAP stack of SAP NetWeaver AS 6.20 or higher and contain GUI elements that are supported by the SAP GUI for HTML.
    If the add-on solution contains additional J2EE parts, these parts must also run on the SAP NetWeaver platform and could be certified for their deployment on the J2EE stack.
    The add-on needs to be packaged and distributed using the SAP add-on assembly kit. This tool is available as part of the certification agreement.
    What are the benefits to an SAP customer of using an SAP-certified ABAP add-on?
    Customers can import and maintain the third-party add-on using the SAP standard transactions SAINT and SPAM. It is assured that the add-on can be used and controlled using SAP NetWeaver Portal.
    SAP Netweaver XI Adapters
    How does an SAP NetWeaver XI adapter become certified as Powered by SAP NetWeaver?
    SAP ICC provides certification opportunities for third-party adapters for the SAP NetWeaver XI adapter framework (NW-XI-AF). These adapters must be implemented as resource adapters of the Java Connector Architecture 1.0. Adapters enable the SAP NetWeaver XI integration engine to talk to different application components or industry standards. Within SAP NetWeaver XI, it is important that the adapters are “lightweight,” in case the integration directory must be used to keep track of required services and mappings. To pass integration certification testing, SAP NetWeaver XI adapters are also required to build the connection directly to other applications or technical systems and must be deployed to SAP NetWeaver XI.
    ISVs can use SAP Partner Connectivity Kit, available through any SAP sales office, as the platform to develop their SAP NetWeaver XI adapters.
    What are the benefits to a customer for using an SAP-certified SAP NetWeaver XI adapter?
    Customers are assured that the adapter is embedded properly on the SAP NetWeaver platform. Monitoring and configuration of this adapter can be centrally handled via SAP NetWeaver XI. No additional software systems are needed to run an SAP- certified SAP NetWeaver XI adapter.
    SAP NetWeaver XI Content Certification
    How does a SAP NetWeaver XI content become certified as Powered by SAP NetWeaver?
    The XI content needs to meet all of the following criteria:
    All XI objects must be embedded in one or more integration scenarios
    Optional XI content can be developed supporting industry standards. The industry standard interfaces must be utilized on one side of the integration scenario
    ISVs have to specify required functional test cases to ensure the functional correctness of all objects contained in the integration scenarios
    ISVs must provide the documentation of the required design and configuration steps
    What are the benefits to a customer for using SAP-certified SAP NetWeaver XI content?
    XI Content is a key differentiator of our integration solutions. SAP delivers XI content to facilitate the implementation process and thus reduce the TCO for the customers. Customers easily understand the underlying business scenarios of XI content objects.

  • BluePrint / Sales Structure of a Company

    Can somebody help me with the blueprint / Sales Structure of any company?. It would be helpful for me to understand the realtime scenario in sales process...like the number of sales organizations and the number of divisions in a company.

    Your question seems a little general. There is a lot of docmentation on the net for explaining the sales structure. However, you a small overview.
    A company can have several company codes which form legal organisations each having to maintain balance sheets & other financial statements for legal requirements. Each company code can sell through several sales organisations located at different locations in the world. Sales Org. forms the highest level in the sales processes and every sale takes place from a sales org. So, a company code can have several sales org. Now, you can sell products by either whole sale, or retail or any other way by which you approach a customer, that is called a distribution channel. You assign a distribution channel to a sales org. Products that you sell can be classifed into divisions. You can assign divisions to sales org. All these three together form Sales Area. This is the most basic org. structure of any company fro sales view point. You can look at the settings using spro ->Enterprise Structure ->Definition and also at, Assignment.

  • Default document type for F-28 per company code wise.

    Hi SAP Experts
    My client wants to default document types per company code wise for F-28.
    As per my knowledge in OBU1 is cross client and OBZO is accepting only customer invoice and credit memo but not customer payment.
    Please help with possible ideas to solve this issue, including any idea relates to substitution also. Your help is appreciated.
    Thanks in advance
    Prathima

    Hi Prathima,
    As mouri said it can be done only by Substitutions
    Since OBZO is only for enjoy transactions
    I have verified the notes aslo but there is no possibility for F-28 by company codes
    Better you can use
    Prerequisite
    SYST-TCODE = F-28
    Substitution
    use Exit
    Inside exit you need fetch the document type as per the companycode
    to achieve this you need define one ztable with company code and document type columns
    Thanks

  • Need advice for wireless iTunes access (have router already)

    I'm having a hard time sifting through all the info to find the best solution. I have a MacBook Pro that I'll soon be upgrading to Lion from Snow Leopard, as well as an iPhone, with a second iPhone soon to enter the family. We also plan to get an iPad. We actually have an older iMac that we won't be upgrading, so we're going to move our iTunes library from the iMac over to the MacBook (basically turning the MacBook into our primary computer). We want to be able to play iTunes without having to keep the MacBook plugged into wired speakers. That seems a bit pointless.
    We have a wireless router already (a D-Link), so I don't need AirPort Express to act as a router. (We have a 1 bedroom condo, really no reason to extend the network or anything like that.) We have a printer that works wirelessly with the MacBook already. All I'm really trying to figure out is the best way to set it up so that we can have iTunes on the MacBook, playing over speakers (either the ones we currently have our iMac plugged into, or our stereo speakers that we have our TV setup with). Ideally if we could do the same from the iPhone and (future) iPad, that would be great, too.
    Does it make any sense for us to get an AirPort Express to do this, or would it just be more straightforward to get wireless speakers that can work over Bluetooth (like the Creative D200 ones in the Apple store)? I feel like the AirPort has the potential to be overkill for our usage, especially since I can't seem to figure out if you can use AirTunes with an iPad, and we don't need it for the wireless printing functions.
    Any advice would be appreciated. Thanks in advance!

    Thanks Leo! Yeah, I was confused about the 2500 series too because they push the Flex 7500 so much as the "real" solution.
    Now that I'm looking in the right spot, it looks like NCS Prime Infrastructure is for the serious folks and we could probably get away without it, right? So that would leave the access points, the controller, and the basic network stuff.

  • Font licensing for a non-profit company

    Hi. I volunteer for a non-profit company here in South Africa that spreads awareness about Childhood Cancer and also raises funds for children with cancer.
    I need to know what type of licensing is required for fonts that I use in posters and such...
    TIA
    Lisl

    You can find all the information about fonts licensed from Adobe (including fonts bundled with Adobe applications) at:
    Font licensing information, end user licensing agreements | Adobe
    There is no restriction against use of any Adobe-licensed font in any print media (such as posters) to answer your specific question. Obviously, though, you can't “give” the font files to the printer or publisher, but you can embed them in print-ready PDF, EPS, and PostScript files. Furthermore, Adobe font licensing makes no distinction between for-profit and non-profit use.
    Note that for fonts from other font vendors (i.e. not Adobe), other licensing requirements including higher cost licenses or even royalties may apply.
