Hi Rama
Retailing consists of the sale of goods or merchandise, from a fixed location such as a department store or kiosk, in small or individual lots for direct consumption by the purchaser.[1] Retailing may include subordinated services, such as delivery. Purchasers may be individuals or businesses. In commerce, a retailer buys goods or products in large quantities from manufacturers or importers, either directly or through a wholesaler, and then sells smaller quantities to the end-user. Retail establishments are often called shops or stores. Retailers are at the end of the supply chain. Manufacturing marketers see the process of retailing as a necessary part of their overall distribution strategy.
Shops may be on residential streets, shopping streets with few or no houses, or in a shopping center or mall, but are mostly found in the central business district. Shopping streets may be for pedestrians only. Sometimes a shopping street has a partial or full roof to protect customers from precipitation. Retailers often provided boardwalks in front of their stores to protect customers from the mud. Online retailing, also known as e-commerce is the latest form of non-shop retailing (cf. mail order).
Shopping generally refers to the act of buying products. Sometimes this is done to obtain necessities such as food and clothing; sometimes it is done as a recreational activity. Recreational shopping often involves window shopping (just looking, not buying) and browsing and does not always result in a purchase.
Most retailers have employees learn facing, a hyperreal tool used to create the look of a perfectly-stocked store even when it is not.

[edit] Retail pricing
The pricing technique used by most retailers is cost-plus pricing. This involves adding a markup amount (or percentage) to the retailers cost. Another common technique is suggested retail pricing. This simply involves charging the amount suggested by the manufacturer and usually printed on the product bize the manufacturer.
In Western countries, retail prices are often so-called psychological prices or odd prices: a little less than a round number, e.g. $6.95. In Chinese societies, prices are generally either a round number or sometimes a lucky number. This creates price points.
Often prices are fixed and displayed on signs or labels. Alternatively, there can be price discrimination for a variety of reasons, where the retailer charges higher prices to some customers and lower prices to others. For example, a customer may have to pay more if the seller determines that he or she is willing to. The retailer may conclude this due to the customer's wealth, carelessness, lack of knowledge, or eagerness to buy. Another example is the practice of discounting for youths or students. Price discrimination can lead to a bargaining situation often called haggling, in which the parties negotiate about the price. Economists see this as determining how the transaction's total surplus will be divided into consumer and producer surplus. Neither party has a clear advantage, because of the threat of no sale, in which case the surplus vanishes for both.
Retailers who are overstocked, or need to raise cash to renew stocks may resort to "Sales", where prices are "marked down", often by advertised percentages - "50% off" for example."Sales" are often held at fixed times of the year, for example January sales, or end-of-season sales, or Blue Cross Sale
[edit] Retail Industry
Retail Industry has brought in phenomenal changes in the whole process of production, distribution and consumption of Consumer Goods all over the world. In the present world most of the developed economies are using the Retail Industry as their vital growth instrument. At present, among all the industries of U.S.A the Retail Industry holds the second place in terms of Employment Generation. In fact, the strength of the Retail Industry lies in its ability to generate large volume of employment.
Not only U.S but also the other developed countries like U.K, Canada, France, Germany are experiencing tremendous growth in their Retail Sectors. This boom in the Global Retail Industry was in many ways accelerated by the Liberalization of Retail Sector.
Observing this global upward trend of Retail Industry, now the developing countries like India are also planning to tap the enormous potential of the retail sector. Wal-Mart,the world's largest Retailer has been invited to India. Other popular Brands like Pantaloons, Big Bazar, Archies are rapidly increasing their market share in the retail sector. According to a survey, within 5 years, the Indian Retail Industry is expected to generate 10 to 15 million jobs by direct and indirect effects. This huge employment generation can be possible because of the fact that being dependent on the the Retail Sector shares a lot of Forward and Backward Linkages.
Emergence of a strong Retail Sector can contribute immensely to the economic development of any country. With a dominant retail sector, the farmers and other suppliers can sell their produce directly to the major retail companies and can ensure stable profit. On the other hand, to ensure steady supply of goods, the Retail Companies can inject cash into the production system. This whole process can result into a more efficient production and distribution system for the economy as a whole.
[edit] Etymology
Retail comes from the French word retaillier which refers to "cutting off, clip and divide" in terms of tailoring (1365). It first was recorded as a noun with the meaning of a "sale in small quantities" in 1433 (French). Its literal meaning for retail was to "cut off, shred, paring". Like the French, the word retail in both Dutch and German (detailhandel and Einzelhandel respectively) also refer to sale of small quantities or items.[citation needed]
[edit] Retail types
According to Jim there are three major types of retailing. The first is the market, a physical location where buyers and sellers converge. Usually this is done in town squares, sidewalks or designated streets and may involve the construction of temporary structures (market stalls). The second form is shop or store trading. Some shops use counter-service, where goods are out of reach of buyers, and must be obtained from the seller. This type of retail is common for small expensive items (e.g. jewelry) and controlled items like medicine and liquor. Self-service, where goods may be handled and examined prior to purchase, has become more common since the Twentieth Century. A third form of retail is virtual retail, where products are ordered via mail, telephone or online without having been examined physically but instead in a catalog, on television or on a website. Sometimes this kind of retailing replicates existing retail types such as online shops or virtual marketplaces such as futurebazaar.com or Amazon.[2].
Buildings for retail have changed considerably over time. Market halls were constructed in the Middle Ages, which were essentially just covered marketplaces. The first shops in the modern sense used to deal with just one type of article, and usually adjoined the producer (baker, tailor, cobbler). In the nineteenth century, in France, arcades were invented, which were a street of several different shops, roofed over. counters, each dealing with a different kind of article was invented; it was called a department store. One of the novelties of the department store was the introduction of fixed prices, making haggling unnecessary, and browsing more enjoyable. This is commonly considered the birth of consumerism [3]. In cities, these were multi-story buildings which pioneered the escalator.
In the 1920s the first supermarket opened in the United States, heralding in a new era of retail: self-service. Around the same time the first shopping mall was constructed [4] which incorporated elements from both the arcade and the department store. A mall consists of several department stores linked by arcades (many of whose shops are owned by the same firm under different names). The design was perfected by the Austrian architecht Victor Gruen[5]. All the stores rent their space from the mall owner. By mid-century, most of these were being developed as single enclosed, climate-controlled, projects in suburban areas. The mall has had a considerable impact on the retail structure and urban development in the United States. [6]
In addition to the enclosed malls, there are also strip malls which are 'outside' malls (in Britain they are called retail parks. These are often comprised of one or more big box stores or superstores.
Non-traditional exterior of a SuperTarget, JacksonvilleLocal shops can be known as brick and mortar stores in the United States. Many shops are part of a chain: a number of similar shops with the same name selling the same products in different locations. The shops may be owned by one company, or there may be a franchising company that has franchising agreements with the shop owners (see also restaurant chain).
Some shops sell second-hand goods. Often the public can also sell goods to such shops, sometimes called 'pawn' shops. In other cases, especially in the case of a nonprofit shop, the public donates goods to the shop to be sold (see also thrift store). In give-away shops goods can be taken for free.
There are also 'consignment' shops, which is where a person can place an item in a store, and if it sells the person gives the shop owner a percentage of the sale price. The advantage of selling an item this way is that the established shop give the item exposure to more potential buyers.
The term retailer is also applied where a service provider services the needs of a large number of individuals, such as with telephone or electric power.
IS Retail was original develop to meet specific needs of Retail industry where standard SD/MM cannot.
- Significant functionality difference are:
- Store specific features are built into IS Retail where as it is not in
standard SD/MM.
- Mass processing of pricing (some of the retail features were
included as standard SAP as of 4.6)
- Assortment handling is not in standard SAP
There are other differences in inventory costing/valuation etc.
Retail valuation only available in SAP Retail.
What is known in the trade as the "retail inventory method" or the "retail method" involves valuating stocks at retail, often aggregated at merchandise category or departmental level.
Both the cost method and the retail method can be used in SAP Retail.
Actually IS-Retail is a combination of MM and SD plus other funtionalities speacially developed for the retail industry such as:
Promotions
Pricing
Assortments
Clasification
Merchandise category
Seasons
Is important to mention that all the funtionality of MM and SD is avialable in SAP IS-Retail with some diferences in some transactions:
Material master data (article in retail) has some diferences.
Vendor master data.
Site master data.

Problem in Project progress

Hi,
I am facing problem in Project progress report CNE5.
System is calculated 300 % poc in Adjusted aggregated actual POC & Aggregated actual POC field only after full confirmed the activity (Degree of Processing is showing in report as 100%).
If I confirmed 50 % then system is showing above value 0% .
Also while CNE1 system is taking default method as :SAP 0-100, so i changed it into activity by 00006 (Work) then system calculate the Progress but only after full confirmation, but again it is 300%. which should not.
The configuration settings are as
1. Progress Version: -
Progress Version : 100
Plan Version          : 0
EV Basis                 : 1 ( Cost Plan)
POC weighting      : 4 Work, Basic ( Active Project)
2. Group of Progress version:-
Controlling Area & 1
3. Assign Progress Versions to Group Progress Versions:-
Controlling Area, 100 & 1
4. Define Statistical Key Figure for Percentage of Completion:-
                                                 Usage               SKF (with unit of measurement= %)
       Controlling area                   1 10
       Controlling area                    2 20
       Controlling area                    3 30
5. Define Measurement Methods:-
Measurement method :0000000006 (Work)
Meas. technique : E ( Degree of Processing)
Max POC                : 100
6. Define Measurement Method as Default Value
Progress version(100), Object Type (2:Activity, Internal Processing), Plan/ Actual( 1 &2 :both), Method (00000006 :Work)
7.Maintain Assignment of Cost Element Group
Cost element (PS) , Default selection( Yes) & cost element group(PS_PROP)
I hope above information is sufficient.
My problem is system is calculating poc only after full confirmation but i want at partial confirmation. Also after full confirmation poc is showing 300% which i want 100%.

Shutdown repair - "On hold - Need information" ???

I was bummed today to see my MacBook's repair status (2nd time it's gone in for Random Shutdown in a month) with "On hold - Need information" and "Your repair is currently on hold. Please contact AppleCare".
Wasn't sure what to expect when calling AppleCare, but certainly wasn't expecting them to ask what they did: "what are you doing when the shutdowns occur?" Um. I've answered that question, every single time I've talked to folks at the Genius Bar (about two hours over two trips) and at AppleCare (5-7 calls). It's in the case report. It's gotta be in there multiple times!
The answer is, of course, "it doesn't matter". What I'm running is completely irrelevant. I might be rendering a DVD, or reading a web page, or the computer might be asleep, or it might be doing nothing, or I might be recompiling a couple hundred Java files, or ...
What have other people been telling AppleCare? I must be doing something wrong; people have been getting theirs fixed, right?
I've been using "Random Shutdown" and "Intermittent Shutdown" since day one, in describing this. What do you call it?
BTW, was on hold for an hour tonight; Dispatch (?) said it was all the kids going back to school. I expect it's going to be hard to get AppleCare for the next month or so, unless they staff up a bit more.

A similar thing is happening with me. My Macbook was sent in for repair a few days ago. Early yesterday, it showed up as "Repair in progress" or whatever but now it shows as "on hold - need information" and instructs me to contact Apple Care. So I called them and they were essentially clueless.
The support agent I spoke to basically had me repeat the story of the problem I'm having (even though that information is already in the ticket) and then just said he was updating the ticket with that information.
I then called the Apple store who had shipped my laptop to the depot after being unable to repair it themselves. The repair guy there said the ticket indicated that the folks at the repair depot couldn't reproduce the issue. Ummm...ok.
So, the Apple store guys couldn't fix my "broken" speaker and decided it was the logic board, so they sent it out for repair. Now they can't reproduce the issue? Just replace the logic board!
I'm really getting fed up here. From the run around I'm getting about my repair to the goon in customer service who had the nerve to tell me that "the logic board didn't decide to fail after the 14 day return period," I've become completely disenchanted with Apple.
All I want is to continue enjoying my laptop without any problems--exactly what I paid for.

Project Progress Calculation

Dear All,
I have query for project progress calculation.
As you know that we have std project progress reports( CNE1/ CNE5), In these reports , project progress are calculated monthwise because as per the prerequisite of CNE1 report, input parameter is period ( month, year). If client wants project progress report on a specific date e.g. 15.11.2008 then system gives the progress report , considering plan poc by the end of the month Nov i.e. 30.11.2008, not upto 15.11.2008.
If you faced such scenario, please share your experience.

Ashok Sangal

Project Progress Catch-up Plan

Dear PS Friends,
I would like to know if any of you have worked on Project Progress Catch-up Plan.
Basically, it is the third dashed-curve which comes in a project progress graph of plan vs actual to cover u2013up the delay.
Below is an example to explain this.
M3 being the current month.
Months     M1     M2     *M3*     M4     M5     M6     M7     M8     M9
Plan PoC     0%     12%     20%     35%     42%     52%     60%     72%     90%
Actual PoC     2%     7%     12%
Catch-up               12%     18%     24%     40%     52%     72%
If yes, please let me know and also how we can implement in SAP PS.
Thanks in advance for your help!
Regards,
Aparna

Hi Abdul,
We are using the planned dates and actual dates spread over duration to calculate the monthly PoC.
Now, if there is a delay i.e. there is a variance between planned and actual, then we need to reschedule   or u2018crashu2019 the project .
This in turn will give us a new planning curve that would need to be followed in order to make up for the delay.
But the problem is that if we reschedule, the original plan is overwritten and hence, the u2018baselineu2019 vanishes.
So the requirement is that in CNE1 , we should be able to calculate three set of dates u2013 original planned PoC ,actual Poc till date, rescheduled PoC.
Given that progress version supports only two set of dates, is there any way to achieve this ?

Aparna

I need Information about Grid

Hello,
The first, i don't speak english very well.... ;)
the company for which work has 3 seats now, but is going to open 5 more.
All these seats are small, and the cost to install Oracle in each one of them is very elevated.
i would like to know to me if Grid Computing can help me centralizing everything in a Seat. The scalability is something very important. and i need have several instances of BD oracle up...
I need information...
Yo can write me to [email protected]
Thanks in advance

Hi.
By seat, I assume you mean site or location.
It's difficult to answer this type of question as it depends on so many factors. Personally, I would always go for the centralized solution. This way you don't need to worry about replication or distribution of data. Those things are always a nightmare.
RAC is great for high availability, and it will allow you to increase your horsepower as and when you need it, but you still need to consider your performance erquierments up front.
Of course, centralization comes with it's own set of problems. Are you going to connect to the central server via the web, VPN, leased line? What happens when the connection is unavailable?
There is just so much to consider...
Cheers
Tim...

The last 12 months' worth can be obtained via your on-line MyVerizon account; look under View Bill and use the drop-down to select the appropriate bill. Anything prior to the past 12 months would need to be obtained via Customer Service; there is a charge (I believe $5 per copy, but I'm not sure).
