OTL (Additional Input Value) help greatly appreciated

Hi there,
I have a requirement where we wish to use OTL for a front end to a number of allowances which require the population of additional input values on the element. These could be for example miles travelled or the method of travel.
Does anyone know how this can be done?
I am envisaging creating an element with the following input values :-
Hours
Multiple
Rate
Rate Code
Miles
I need the additional field to be displayed on the timecard. Does this require custom timecard templates? How do I make the additional field on the timecard populate the Miles input value when the time entry is transferred from OTL to BEE.
Any advice on this would be very greatly appreciated.
Many Thanks and have a great week
Kev

You need to follow these steps:
1. Add the input values to your Element, check element link, include the element to your element set, run "generate flexfield process" with the above element set.
2. Create mapping components for each of the new fields which you want to show on the timecard to let system know which column these attributes will get mapped to.
3. Add the mapping components to your receiving application's Retrieval and Deposit process.
4. Now modify your timecard layouts to show the additional fields you want to show.
For detailed information, please ,follow the Note:207333.1

OTL: Additional Input Values on Timekeeper

Hello team,
I have a requirement where I need to have an additional field on Timekeeper form called "Unique Hours". For this I did the following steps:
1. Created this additional input value in the relevant element.
2. Added to element set and ran Generate... process.
3. Created a value set.
4. Registered the input value + value set in Alternate Name Mapping and then with Alternate Name Definition.
5. Also put in the Alternate Names Definition for timekeeper.
After doing this, I can see the new field on the TK screen and enter value in it but it doesnt transfer to BEE.
I need some real help on this please.
Thanks in advance...

Have you defined the mapping component for the new input value and added it to the retrieval process?

I'm trying to transfer data (docs, emails) from G4 iMac running os 10.3.9 to brand new iMac on 10.8.1 I'm stuck, any help greatly appreciated. (Ethernet or wifi networking are both options if I can figure out how to get the machines to communicate.)

I have the old machine backed up onto an external firewire disk but can't hook that up to the new imac as I'm waiting for delivery of a firewire 400/800 adaptor - therefore starting the old machine up as a slave is also subject to the same delay.
I was hoping there might be some way to create a network between the 2 machines (and 2 different versions of the OS) to be able to transfer data across immediately but perhaps I'll just have to wait for my firewire adaptor to arrive.
I don't understand why you're buying a Firewire adaptor, since AFAIK both of your computers have Firewire already built in.
All you need is a firewire cable. Connect the Firewire socket on the old machine to the Firewire socket on your new iMac.
Then start the old machine in Target Mode (i.e. by holding down the T key on its keyboard, while it's starting up, until you see the three-legged T icon hopping around the screen of the old machine.)
At that point you will also see a new icon on the screen of your new iMac. This is the hard drive of your old machine. By clicking on it you can navigate through it any way you like, just as you would normally.
Just drag across whatever you want from the old computer to the new one. This will leave everything on the old computer untouched.

Do you have a video card with at least 512 MB of vRAM?
I only have 256 MB vRAM on my older iMac and still have 3D capability in PS CS5, but not in PS CC. The newer versions of PS require 512 MB in order to enable 3D.

Hi, back ups to my TC suddenly won't work saying there's a problem with network username/password. Any help greatly appreciated!

I've deselected the disc, reselected it & re-entered the password 3 times now with no luck.
Any help greatly appreciated!

It sounds like you have much more issues than simply the TC..
I can suggest or have suggested the workaround to the TC problem.
Did you try it??
What happened if you did?
Did you simply try the standard old reboot the TC.. ie yank out the power cord. count to 10.. plug in the power cord.
That magically fixes lots of network issues.
Mavericks has some major issues.. do you upgrade install.
Let me strongly recommend a clean install.. if you haven't done it. Your issues with safari look like a corrupted install to me.. but I am not an eggs spurt in OS issues.. by any long stretch of the imagination.. post the issue over in the Mavericks area.
But as an old computer support man.. (old should be emphasised) upgrade installation are anethma.. I have never seen them work 100% and that includes with Mac. Of course you cannot expect windows to work.. but things go wrong in every OS.. no matter how wonderful.
Make sure you have a good TM backup .. clean install and migrate your documents back.. maybe reinstall software from scratch. Not easy but the only way.

Why has my ipad mini stopped connecting with my iPhone 4S? I used to use it to download books, or transfer emails to my ipad mini. It was fine 3 days ago, now I get a message saying " cannot join with iPhone" Any help greatly appreciated.

You can try resetting your iPad and iPhone by simultaneously pressing and holding the Home and Sleep/Wake buttons until you see the Apple Logo. This can take up to 15 seconds so be patient and don't release the buttons until the logo appears.
Try again to see if the problem persists.

OTL - Adding additional Input Value

Hi,
I am trying to modify the timecard layout to add Rate field. The idea is user should be able to enter Hours and Rate paid. I added a input value 'Rate' as sequence 12 to the element. after this submitted the process 'Generate Flexfield and Mapping information' and enabled and displayed the segements for Hours and Rate in the OTL Information Types DFF.
Now i defined a new context called Rate in OTL Alternate Names DFF and added 3 segments to it. PAYROLL_ELEMENTS, IDENTIFIER and RATE. Defined Alternate Mapping also.Modified the layout through ldt. i can see the field displayed in the timecard layout, though no label for it.
But when i enter a value in this field ( also hours ) and click continue i am getting a error message "you have entered some time information without associating any time with that information.Enter some time for this information, or remove it". When i delete the value in this field leaving only hours it goes through fine. I am modifying the Payroll Layout.
appreciate your help in resolving the issue. I referred OTL White Paper. If you have any other useful documents for this purpose please share with me.
Many Thanks
Chandra

Losing communication with DAQ devices - help greatly appreciated

All,
I have been working on a VI whose function is the following:
- Acquire data from three sources
     - A block of eight displacement sensors connected via RS232 (using a USB adapter)
   - An NI-USB 6210 card measuring voltages across eight batteries
   - Another NI-USB 6210 card measuring voltage across four load cells (these correspond to batteries one through four).
   - Data acquired at 1 Hz, written at 0.2 Hz (no buffer - simply writes one fifth of data recorded)
- Open/close a relay board based on certain inputs
- Provide basic UI functionality to control data manipulation, display data, and write data to text files
- Write data to text files
We have run four tests with this VI. Each test runs for anywhere from 24 to 48 hours. During three of these four tests, we have lost connection with one or both of our NI DAQ cards. I have attached one of the output files - notice that in the 'Current (mA)/Voltage (V)' and 'Load (N)' columns, at a certain point on of the cards starts reading 'NaN', followed soon after by the other card. Note that this has happened on two different computers, one laptop and one desktop, both of which had hibernate/sleep disabled.
For your reference, I have attached the VI. This VI will not run as there are some subVIs that I have not included; these subVIs do not do anything critical to the execution of the program. The program generally runs as follows:
- Initially, a subVI runs that aids the user in selecting the appropriate COM port and USB devices.
- The VISA device and DAQ cards are initialized, all relays are opened, variables are initialized
- In parallel, there are two producer timed loops, one consumer for loop and an event loop
   - One producer loop continuously acquires voltage data from both DAQ cards. When the loop is over, basic DC voltage values are taken from all samples in each buffer, and the values are enqueued
     - One producer loop acquires one reading per loop from the displacement sensor (via a VISA Write -> VISA read), and the response string is enqueued.
   - The consumer loop runs at a similar timing as the producer loops (blocked using queues). It manipulates, displays, and records acquired data. It also opens relay channels if the corresponding displacement values are greater than a set threshold.
     - The event loop opens text files for writing when a button is depressed, as well as performing basic tasks such as clearing graphs, etc.
What is the cause of this issue? What am I doing wrong? This error is preventing us from running tests at our company. Any help is greatly appreciated.
Thank you,
Bryan

Wayne,
Thanks for your reply. Unfortunately, my knowledge is limited in this area. We are using an ADU208 USB relay from Ontrak (information here: http://www.ontrak.net/ADU208.htm). We are using the bundled subVIs to open/close each channel of the relay depending on the acquired data. How could this relay board affect the DAQ communication?
It may also be important to note - I have tried to make this VI so that all devices need not be used all of the time. That is, sometimes we choose to not use the relay, sometimes we choose to not measure load, and sometimes we choose not to measure current. This means that we do not always have the same hardware connected, but the software runs the same and deals with the resulting errors appropriately (hopefully). The previously attached output file is from a test where the relay was not connected, however the relay commands were still run (and presumably threw errors).
Thanks again for your help
Bryan

Add a loop to display 20 blank lines (effectively clearing the screen).
After the switch statement, prompt the user to press the ENTER key and then read a line from the keyboard. This stops the code from looping to the next menu display, so the user can read the response to their choice.

Now let's improve your code :

Hi,
My MacBook Pro won't connect to the internet, although it says it is connected. The laptop is about 2 years old and up until now has worked fine. My work PC laptop is connecting to the internet fine so I know it can't be the connection. I've checked for Adware/Malware (just in case) via safemac and that all seems fine.
I'm running OSX 10.8.5.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Believe it or not, that article helped me find a temporary solution. After reading it I realized that the problem did have to do with my DNS settings. I had taken the DNS settings that my ISP gives me when I dial up and plugged them into the configuration for my AirPort card. This apparently caused a problem because, although my wireless network is always on, it's not always connected to the internet. So those DNS settings were invalid most of the time.
I found that as long as I leave the area for DNS servers blank, the computer logs in normally. This further confirms my suspicion that something was trying to access the internet at login. I guess as long as I don't specify any DNS servers, the computer realizes it doesn't have an internet connection through my AirPort card.
So I just created two network locations: one for when my network is connected to the internet and one for when it isn't. In the first, I kept my original DNS settings because they work as long as I have an internet connection. In the second I did not specify any DNS servers. This seems to work fine, but I'd still like to know what is trying to access the internet at login. I've disabled the automatic update feature in all my programs that have it, but that doesn't seem to help the slowdown at login. Does anyone know how I could figure out what program is trying to access the internet?

Heirarchy input value help

Hi,
Have been referring to the sap documentation for Heirarchy variable input which uses a
webtemplate with a button element which shows the heirarchy value help in a html view.
This actually works fine.
But I have a variable form with an input field and wish to pass the value selected by means of this heirarchy value help as the input in the input form.How could I possibly do that .
Rgds

Basheer,
Appreciate your quck response,had referred this earlier.But my query input variable is a
heirarchy enabled variable ,while this refers to normal variables only .
The value help here in the VC model only retrieves values for leaf nodes into the input form while for root nodes it shows "no applicable data" in the output table.
The query executes fine on the BW side with proper output.Also while testing query in
"Define/test query" in VC the query fails to execute . What could possibly be the problem?
Thank You
Rgds

I cannot find this 300GB "Backup" in the Finder, only in the Storage info when I check "About This Mac".
You are probably using Time Machine to backup your MacBook Pro, right? Then the additional 300 GB could be local Time Machine snapshots. Time Machine will write the hourly backups to the free space on your hard disk, if the backup drive is temporarily not connected. You do not see these local backups in the Finder, and MacOS will delete them, when you make a regular backup to Time Machine, or when you need the space for other data.
See Pondini's page for more explanation: What are Local Snapshots? http://pondini.org/TM/FAQ.html
I have restarted my computer, but the information remains the same. How do I reclaim the use of the 300GB? Why is it showing up as "Backups" when it used to indicate "Photos"? Are my photos safe on the external drive?
You have tested the library on the external drive, and so your photos are save there.
The local TimeMachine snapshot probably now contains a backup of the moved library. Try, if connecting your Time Machine drive will reduce the size of your local Time Machine snapshots.
