Overprinting PMS colours to create others based on the formula guide
I have been looking at my Pantone Formula Guide for solid coated.
Looking at PMS 576C I can see its made up of:
75% Pantone Yellow
25% Pantone Ref Blue
PMS 555C is:
50% Pantone yellow
50% Pantone Ref Blue
If I print 100% PMS 576C then overprint 50% Pantone Ref Blue will I get a colour that looks Exactly, close to or nowhere near PMS 555C?
Thanks
Pantones are not really designed for overprint mixing on press. There are too many variables and too many inks to control the result properly.
Usually when you see Pantones overprinting it's a duotone image (which is difficult to proof), or a 2nd hit of the same ink to ensure a smooth lay down on press.
Reflex is not metallic. Metallic inks use the base colors 871 - 877 as mixing components and all metallic inks start with 8. Reflex however does not have the same tack as the process inks. It can be used in a wet trap process but is better used for mixing in a can, or printing as a standalone color.
One huge obstacle when overprinting Pantones is you cannot always predict the result. It's not like CMYK, where you have the benefit of ICC profiles and color management. The only thing you have are the Lab values which are device independent.
It is nearly impossible to create a precise target color by mixing pre-specified inks. In your case the target is 555, 40L a-30 b12 Solid Coated. All you've got to work with is 576 and Reflex. The Reflex being dark poses a problem. You can tint the inks but the color result still won't be saturated enough.
If the blue was a much lighter blue (298) you could probably get pretty close. 85% 576 and 84% 298 looks like a decent match to 555. Of course that's just going by a soft proof. And the print sequence could affect the press result.
Edit changed 279 to 298

Problem Creating VirtualProviders Based on the DTP
Problem Creating VirtualProviders Based on the Data Transfer Process .
(1) I have created an Data Source(extract structure and extractor) on SYS1. Tested the extractor. It returns data as desired.
(2) Then I replicated this Data Source to SYS2.
(3) In SYS1 I created InfoCube(VirtualProvider based on data transfer process for direct access) .
Till this point I have no issues .
(4) But after that I am not able to "Create Data Transfer Process" for this Virtual Infoprovider . When I try to create DTP the DTP type available for selection is "Scheduled" where as per the documentation I need to create DTP of DTP type "DTP for Direct Access".This DTP type I donot see.
Is it a problem with the BW configuration or some user error.Any suggestions which may help would be realy appreciated.

Creating Delivery based on the Inbound IDOC received.
Hi all,
I have a requirement where in, Outbound Delivery for Sales order is to be created based on the inbound IDOC received from a third party. The standard idoc type DELIVERY03, requires the Delivery Number for updating the order but it cannot create a delivery number.
Can any one suggest which IDOC type can be used for this or if there is any alternative solution?Hi,
You can use FM IDOC_INBOUND_WRITE_TO_DB to create an inbound IDoc.
CALL FUNCTION 'IDOC_INBOUND_WRITE_TO_DB'
EXPORTING
PI_STATUS_MESSAGE = I_EDIDS
IMPORTING
PE_IDOC_NUMBER = DOCNUM
PE_STATE_OF_PROCESSING = STPROC
PE_INBOUND_PROCESS_DATA = I_TEDE2
TABLES
T_DATA_RECORDS = I_EDIDD
CHANGING
PC_CONTROL_RECORD = I_EDIDC
EXCEPTIONS
IDOC_NOT_SAVED = 1
OTHERS = 2.

How to create monitor based on the data collected by rule?
I have an application which comes with a built-in command: GetBackLogNm.exe. Running this command can get the current backlog number in the system.
Now I need to create a monitor which should trigger the alert if the backlog keeps increasing for 2 hours. I am thinking of creating a rule which run command GetBackLogNm.exe to get the number and save it into DW. Then create a monitor based on the collected
data. Is it the correct way? If so, can anyone give me a outline how to do so? An example would be much appreciated if possible.
Thanks!Hi Jonathan, thanks for the quick reply. But System.ConsolidatorCondition seems only available for SCOM 2012. I didn't find it in 2007 libraries.
However the idea your and Vladimir showed in this
post is really helping. I kind of solved the issue not using the exactly the components (since it is available in 2012 only) but following the same logic.
In general I did this:
1. create a script rule which execute the command to get backlog number; then save the log number in the DW and the registry.
2. just like System.Performance.DeltaValueCondition, when the second time the rule triggered by schedule, it will compare the current backlog number and the last known number stored in the registry. If the value is exceeding given threshold AND bigger than
the last known back log number, the rule increase an counter which is also stored in the registry
3. create an unit monitor to monitor the counter stored in the registry and will trigger the alert if the counter exceeding a given value.
This solved the issue. But I feel a little not comfortable to store data in the registry.
So one quick question which might be out of the this topic: what is a good way to store the data generated by one workflow and then share it with another workflow or reuse sometime later? In my case here, I used the registry key. Cook down is one option
to share data but it is very strict and can't solve the issue I have in this case.
Thanks again! -
I am very fond of the light and easy to use PhotoShop Elements.
I am situated in Denmark and would expect an image import to allow the creation of folders based on the international date standard (yyyy mm dd).
This "feature" would allow image folders to be created as follows:
2014 05 06 (6. May 2014)
2014 05 07 (7. May 2014) and so forth
When using the US date format folders are created 2014 06 05 and 2014 07 05 which doesn't make sense if folders should be viewed in a logical order.
It seems that the international date standard has been removed from PhotoShop Elements some where arround version 9-10 and it does create some rather annoying problems for me.
Am I really the the only one to experience this problem?
Since I cant figure out how to setup the organizer by using preferences, then how can I have the folders created automatically in the "normal" numeric/date order ?
Sincerely
HenrikThx for the prompt repåly.
Yes, you are quite right. PSE 12 is the thing.
I checked the import settings under preferences, but still the same problem with the date format.
But I did find though, that the APD Dialog Advanced allows me to actually automatically create the folders as wanted.
So for now it seems to be solved, only not through PSE Preferences, but via the APD Dialog.
Cheers,

As a trainer i would like to train others how to work with either of these tools - the ipad or the Mac Air.
Starting out in the world of Mac as i embark on this journey i want to ensure the path i choose will work.
in other words, based on the experience i gain with the Ipad, can i transfer this knowledge to helping others manage a Mac Air - essentially the operating system, managing files, the desktop, multitasking with apps
i do not want to buy both the ipad and the Mac Air.
thank you for any adviceThe iPad and Mac computers use different operating systems : iOS for iPads (and iPhones and iPod Touches) and OS X for Mac computers. They operate in different ways - Macs have a desktop and a file system, iPads (with the sandboxed iOS) have apps with content stored within the apps (and no file system).

Problem creating new sites. The formula refers to a column that does not exist
Good morning,
I have a problem creating new sites in my development environment. We have a template which works properly when we create new sites with it. However, when we add one new content type in the site created and save it as a new template, we can't create new sites
with this template. The error log is that there are one problem in one column [The formula refers to a column that does not exist. Check the formula for spelling mistakes or change the non-existing column to an existing column].
I have opened the wsp template with visual studio but I can´t discover what column is the problem because the log only refers to the feature (ListInstances).
Anybody knows how to find my problematic column?
The error is:
Feature Activation: Threw an exception, attempting to roll back. Feature 'plantilla Llave en Mano 20141222 v2ListInstances' (ID: '6c61a3bf-3c51-4064-958b-d154729233e7'). Exception: Microsoft.SharePoint.SPException: La fórmula hace referencia a una

Thanks in advanceHi Enrique,
According to your description, after added a content type into the new site and save the site as a template, there is an issue when creating another new with the newly
site template.
Based on the error message “The formula refers to a column that does not exist…”, seems that it would be an issue of a Calculated column in the content type you added,
please go through all the Calculated column in that content type to see if the formulas all work well.
Feel free to reply if there any progress.
Best regards,

Create z_70_255 based from the x_65_255 print format
hi to all,
Just want to ask re. my issue about creating a print format using SPAD.
My question is that I already created a print format z_70_255 based from z_65_255 but when I used it as a print format in one of our ABAP program, its output seems like the size of x_65_255 format. Considering that I adjusted its size of rows from 65 to 70. Please note that I just only copied the codes written in the printer initialization in the x_65_255. The printer that we'll be using is an HP LJ printer.
Hoping for your comments and replies. Thanks a lot.

Q:-
How can I remove my very old Apple ID from my Iphone 4S. The old ID is still staying on my mobile but that email doesn't exist anymore. I cant rest my mobile as everytime i tried it asks ID password which I don't remember.Hello mushysun,
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
If you did not sign out of your Apple ID on your iPhone before creating a new one, then you will need to sign back in with your previous Apple ID and then sign out. If you do not remember your password and do not have access to the email account, then you can reset your password by using the security questions.
If you forgot your Apple ID password - Apple Support

How do I create a dynamic parameter based on a formula?
Hi,
I've developed a report, in CR 11, that is parameterized based on the field "ticket_date". I've created a Min and a Max formula so that I can select a date range. This works wonderfully. However, my date list is growing longer by the day and each day I have to run the report I need to scroll through an even longer list of date values. This will become increasingly impractical with each passing month and year. I would like create a "Year" paramater and a "Month" parameter so that I can first select the Year, then the month(s), then the dates.
When I attempted to create a parameter based on the formula, "Year (), the formula wasn't in the list of available values to create a parameter on.
How can I address this requirement?
thanks in advance!
MarkHi Abhilash,
Looks like I was able to create a Year field in the Command - thanks for the tip!
Before I close this off as answered can you take a look at two sets of SQL I wrote in the Command that I'm getting errors on and offer advice on where the error is occurring.
Example 1
The SQL I attempted to write must be close though:
Select ft.sequence, ft.ticket_date, coff.office_name, comp.subscriptions_id from
field_tickets as ft, company_offices as coff, companies as comp
INNER JOIN jobs ON comp.companies_id=jobs.companies_id
INNER JOIN field_tickets ON jobs.jobs_id=field_tickets.jobs_id
LEFT JOIN company_offices ON jobs.company_offices_id=company_offices.company_offices_id
Where comp.subscriptions_id=7.00
When I attempt to save this I get an error:
"Failed to retrieve data from the database. Details: Exception: Error Message: Java Heap Space"
Example 2
I get the error, "Not unique table/alias: 'custom_jobs_values'" for the following SQL Command
SELECT companies., jobs., field_tickets., regions., customers., custom_jobs_values. FROM
companies, jobs, field_tickets, regions, customers, custom_jobs_values
LEFT JOIN custom_jobs_values ON jobs.jobs_id=custom_jobs_values.jobs_id
INNER JOIN regions ON companies.regions_id=regions.regions_id
INNER JOIN jobs ON companies.companies_id=jobs.companies_id
INNER JOIN field_tickets ON jobs.jobs_id=field_tickets.jobs_id
INNER JOIN customers ON jobs.customers_id=customers.customers_id and
companies.subscriptions_id=4.00
thanks!

Create Directories based on File Names
I have a Folder with all of my digital photos. All of the photos are named using a %Y%m%d_%H%M%S.jpg format. I am trying to write a script that would go through, and create folders based on the %Y%m%d portion of the name. Then move the photos into the appropriate folders. Then, create folders named according to %Y%m of the newly created folders, and move the %Y%m%d folders into the %Y%m folders. So that my folders would be organized as /%Y%m/%Y%m%d/%Y%m%d_%H%M%S.jpg or 200809/20080905/20080905_083026 - for a photo taken today.
Any tips for getting started on this? As always, thanks in advance.There are a number of ways of doing this, here's one model:
set topFolder to (choose folder with prompt "Please select the folder containing your images")
tell application "Finder"
repeat with eachFile in (get files of folder topFolder)
-- get the file name and date elements
set filename to name of eachFile
set YMD to characters 1 through ((offset of "_" in filename) - 1) of filename as text
set YM to characters 1 through 6 of YMD as text
-- make sure the subfolders exist. If they don't then create them
if not (exists folder YM of topFolder) then
make new folder at topFolder with properties {name:YM}
end if
if not (exists folder YMD of folder YM of folder topFolder) then
make new folder at folder YM of folder topFolder with properties {name:YMD}
end if
-- now move the file
move eachFile to folder YMD of folder YM of folder topFolder

Create RFQ based on data supplied by excel document and then create PO
Hello Experts,
I have an requirement to create following scenario.
1. User will upload "Requirement Endorsement Sheet " which contains items and qty in an excel format and this has to be sent to workflow user.
2. Workflow user must able to create RFQ based on the excel document sent in the first step by auto populating item and item qty fields in RFQ.
3. Last step is to create PO based on RFQ created in step 2.
I would like to know whether any SAP standard BAPIs can help to create RFQ adn then using RFQ data create PO.
Appreciate if you can provide some tips for building the above solution.
Regards
KrishnaIn your 2nd step the User will manually enter and or it needs to be auto populated. If it requires auto population of RFQ I think you can use standard method. Just search for Business object of RFQ by doing a F4 in SWO1.
Thanks

Create condition based on date and time
Hi everyone,
I'm using Discoverer Plus 10g. I want to create a condition in my worksheet using StageTime (consists of date and time) as the parameter, i.e. StageTime > StartTimeParameter and StageTime < EndTimeParameter.
I am able to create condition based on the date, but unable to create based on the time. I need to limit the data up to the hour, e.g.
StageTime > 11-NOV-2005 1 AM and StageTime < 11-NOV-2005 3 AM.
But so far I am unable to create a condition for the hour element.
I try to use this:
TO_DATE(TO_CHAR(:Start Date Parameter,'mm-dd-yyyy')||' '||:Start Hour||':00:00','mm-dd-yyyy hh24:mi:ss')
Start Date Parameter is selected using the date picker in Discoverer Plus
and the Start Hour is in the format '00' to '23'
but was prompted with the error: ORA-015858 a non numeric character was found where a numeric was expected.
Would really appreciate anyone's help on this! :)
Thanks,
Angeline :)how about, if :Start Date Parameter is of type DATE and :Start Hour is of type varchar2(2) to simply do
:Start Date Parameter + to_number(:Start Hour)/24

I originally thought this could be achieved using "OSVersion" or "OSCurrentVersion" but (unless I'm mistaken) those variables are in fact tied to the OS from witch you actually launch the MDT Wizard right? i.e. say I run MDT from within
Windows PE to deploy Windows 8. The "OSVersion" and "OSCurrentVersion" will contain values for the Windows PE instance that is currently running MDT and not the Windows 8 OS I am actually deploying right? Assuming that is the case then
is there some variable in MDT that stores version information about the OS you are currently deploying? If so can I use that in CustomSettings.ini to specify different settings for specific OSes I deploy?Rens,
First thanks for responding. Next please don't take my response the wrong way but this is a bit of a pet peeve of mine. Maybe I'm just "doing it wrong" but I have used the TaskSequenceID trick in the past and thats actually where my problem lies.
Too many people are recommending this course of action without including the caveats. Your response implies that using TaskSequenceID is as simple as just adding "TaskSequenceID" to priority and then creating entries based on the TSIDs themselves.
In reality getting this to work is far more challenging. One needs to only check the following threads (and several others) for the issues other people are having when they try to use TaskSequenceID in CustomSettings.ini:
http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/e17a1952-d1f7-41ef-8231-0d6fcc41882e/mdt-2012-settings-per-task-sequence?forum=mdt#f0810428-e6fd-468e-8c76-ca18b210c191

In fact, following the steps outlined here was the *only* way I was able to get TaskSequenceID to work for me:
http://www.the-d-spot.org/wordpress/2012/07/20/how-to-use-different-settings-per-task-sequence-with-mdt-2012/
Even then its causing some erratic issues in some areas like button lag in the Wizard because ZTIGather has to run twice and pre-checked Applications in the wizard still installing even if they are unchecked. Since my needs are more OS-specific (as opposed
to Task Sequence specific) I was hoping for a better solution. I suppose I can check BDD.log but I was hoping someone here had already encounter this same issue and hit upon a solution they could share.
Anyone?
