Payables Import Performance after Match Option changed to PO

We changed the match option from 'R' to 'P' and since then payables import has been running longer and taking nearly 100% of the CPU while all other pending processes are erroring out with Signal 11.
Has anybody here got this kind of issue with Payables Invoice Import?
Looking for suggestions
Thank a lot.

Not seen this kind of an issue. May be you n can try taking a sql trace for both the cases and locate what the problem might be.

  • How to Delete imported JPEGS after matching RAW files are imported as masters

    Using a 5D Mark III and shoot JPEG (SD) and RAW (CF).
    Aperture 3.5.1, using a managed library
    Perviously, using a 7D so new to shooting JPEG and RAWs from an aperture Aperture workflow standpoint.
    I know that i can import the JPEGs > delete images that do not make the cut > then import the matching RAW files in the import dialogue that correspond to the JPEGs in the Aperture Library.
    I use the RAW files as my Camera Master images and once the RAW files are imported, the smaller resolution JPEGs are no longer needed or viewed in my normal edit workflow.  I only need the JPEGs to quickly go through the images to find out which RAW files i need to import at a later time to increase the speed of import > edit > deliver.
    My Assumptions:
    1.  Logic would lead me to believe that after import the user should see a stack like image representation with whatever file type is considered Master to be on top and the viewable secondary file type on the bottom.  clicking on the image stack should allow you to see both file types as you would normally see with image stacks with the same files types.  This is not the case...  What am i missing here?
    2.  Logic again would lead me to believe that when i have the ability to delete one of the 2 image types as i do not need both in the end.  After the import process is complete and RAWs are backed up, I want to delete the JPEG files as they are just taking up more space on my DAS drive array...  There is no need to keep a duplicate of every file in both JPEG and RAW format.  This is not the case as when i delete the JPEG or RAW, both files formats are deleted simultaneously.  What am i missing here?
    Problems: (correspond to Assumptions above)
    1.  I do not seem to have access to both images (JPEG & RAW) in a stack where i can expand and close the stack to see both?  It seems like i only have access to the image type i have selected as Master?  This seems counter intuitive to what the workflow should be as why would aperture 'lock the secondary file types away' so you can't easily view both file types as the same time for comparison?
    2a.  Reality seems to be that i do not have access to the JPEG and RAW image files.  I can only see one at a time by selecting the images and choosing 'make JPEG master’ and then respectively... 'make RAW master', but you can't see both at the same time for file comparison.
    2b.  Also, I can't find a way to delete the JPEG images after the RAW files have been imported.  I would presume most professional photographers shoot RAW and do not shoot JPEG as their camera master or editing master images.  I do not understand why aperture has captured both as a pair in the library that does not allow me to delete the JPEG (in this case) as i have selected the RAW as my master.
    If someone can please help...  The function seems like either i am missing something obvious or that the implemented function of using RAW + JPEGs files for import is broken from a real world workflow standpoint.

    leonie...
    thank you for clearing that up for me.
    I think that at this point it is silly to use the JPEG+RAW import functionality as it seems that it takes longer to do the above steps than to just import only the RAW files and press on from there.
    I seems what i have done in the past of only importing the RAW files and then using the quick preview functionality to reduce image load times is the best thing in can come up with without keeping 'duplicates' in the database.
    That really baffels me that there is no built in functionality to remove the JPEG from a RAW+JPEG pair and i wonder how the real world photographers who help Apple test and implement software to solve real world workflow problems thought the JPEG+RAW import was going to be used.
    I do understand that i can use a smaller JPEG file size to reduce the bloat of the database, but used over hundreds of thousands of images is certainly going to make a dent in my total aperture database size and therefore storage needs down the road.
    If you have any other workflow thoughts, or know of a 3rd party plugin/ etc... to fix this obvious shortcoming then i am all ears..
    thank you again Leonie and have a great week

  • Why does the menu option change to "save as" after I select the print button?

    why does the menu option change to "save as" after I select the print button?

    >>The print command is selected in the File pull down menu, the print menu page pops up, I can then select my networked printer (which incidentally is confirmed to work with other software), the print command is in the bottom right hand corner and finally after depressing this print button a "save as" pop-up menu appears and then it only re-saves the file. Is this an issue with the pdf reader install?  

  • PE9 scanning options change after installed new printer

    Operating Windows 7 64bit, Epson Perfection 1650 scanner.   I have PE9, and after I installed a new Epson printer, my scanning options changed, I no longer have the Twain option, and the scanning window that appears is the one that is for the new printer.  I have the option to choose my old Epson 1650 scanner, but it still has the new scanner window, which I don't like, it consistantly scans the entire flatbed even though I only have a small photo on it, and it will not save my settings nor allow me to scan multiple images.  Any suggestions for me.

  • Text Caption Timing Options Changing after an Edit

    I am trying to highlight a matrix in four seperate slides. I
    made my text caption box and highlight box on one slide and copied
    and pasted for the next three. When I went in to edit the text in
    the 3 copied captions, the timing options changed on me. For
    example, on one I set the timing to 10 seconds and when I tested I
    realized it was showing for only about 3. I have no idea why this
    changed. I found an old post from someone and the suggestion was to
    uncheck some "calculate timing" box. I am using Captivate 3 and
    have found no such box to uncheck. Any help would be wonderful!
    Thanks,
    Kim

    Hi Kim and welcome to our community
    Click the Project menu and see if you have a check mark
    beside the option "Calculate Caption Timing". I'm guessing you do.
    DE-select it and the timing should be left alone.
    Cheers... Rick

  • WHAT IS  THE USE OF COPY/MATCH OPTION  IN BUISNESS CONTENT

    WHAT IS  THE USE OF COPY/MATCH OPTION  IN BUISNESS CONTENT  GIVE DETAILS

    Hi,
    Match (X) or Copy
    If the SAP delivery version and the active version can be matched, a checkbox is displayed in this column.
    With the most important object types, the active version and the SAP delivery version can be matched.
    From a technical point of view, the SAP delivery version (D version) is matched with the M version. As in most cases the M version is identical to the active version (A version) in a customer system, this is referred to as a match between the D and A versions for reasons of simplification.
    When a match is performed, particular properties of the object are compared in the A version and the D version. First it has to be decided whether these properties can be matched automatically or whether this has to be done manually. A match can be performed automatically for properties if you can be sure that the object is to be used in the same way as before it was transferred from Business Content.  When performing matches manually you have to decide whether the characteristics of a property from the active version are to be retained, or whether the characteristics are to be transferred from the delivery version.
    Example of an automatic match
    Additional customer-specific attributes have been added to an InfoObject in the A version. In the D version, two additional attributes have been delivered by SAP that do not contain the customer-specific attributes.  In order to be able to use the additional attributes, the delivery version has to be installed from Business Content again. At the same time, the customer-specific attributes are to be retained. In this case, you have to set the indicator (X) in the checkbox.  After installing the Business Content, the additional attributes are available and the customer-specific enhancements have been retained automatically. However, if you have not checked the match field, the customer-specific enhancements in the A version are lost.
    Example of a manual match
    An InfoObject has a different text in the A version than in the D version. In this case the two versions have to be matched manually. When Business Content is installed, a details screen appears which asks you to specify whether the text should be transferred from the active version or from the D version.
    The Match indicator is set as default in order to prevent the customer version being unintentionally overwritten. If the Content of the SAP delivery version is to be matched to the active version, you have to set the Install indicator separately.
    The active version is overwritten with the delivery version if
    ¡        the match indicator is not set and
    ¡        the install indicator is set.
    In other words, the delivery version is copied to the active version.
    If the Install indicator is not set, the object is not copied or matched. In this case, the Match indicator has no effect.
    In the context menu, two options are available:
                                a.      Merge All Below
    The object in the selected hierarchy level and all objects in the lower levels of the hierarchy are selected as to Match.
                                b.      Copy All Below
    The Match indicators are removed for the object in the selected hierarchy level and all objects in the lower levels of the hierarchy. If the Install indicator is also set, these objects are copied from the delivery version to the active version.
    The most important properties which are taken into account when versions are matched are now listed.
    When referring to InfoObjects it is important to differentiate between:

    With the InfoObject catalog object type, InfoObjects that are assigned to a catalog in the delivery version are transferred to the active version automatically. Manual matching is not necessary.
    With the transfer rule object type, those objects that exist in the delivery version but are not yet contained in the active version (for example, additional attributes) are added automatically when the match is performed.  Manual matching is not necessary.
    With the process chain object type, those objects that exist in the delivery version but are not yet contained in the active version (for example, additional objects in the process chain) are added automatically when the match is performed.  Manual matching is not necessary.
    ·        Active Version Available
    In this column, the following display options are available:
    ¡        : The object is available in an active version. You decide whether you want to retain this version or reinstall the latest version of the object.
    ¡        Date symbol: The object is already available in an active version. However, the active version belongs to an older Content release. SAP recommends that you install the latest version.
    ¡        Gray symbol: An activated version of the object is available in the system. However, the object status is inactive. If an object version is activated, this indicates that all metadata for the object can be created successfully. The inactive object status indicates that the processed object is inconsistent and cannot currently be used for processing data. Transfer the object again from the SAP delivery version (D version).  If this is not enough to change the object status from “inactive” to “active” the object has to be postprocessed. You find notes on postprocessing in the activation log.
    Postprocessing: An inactive object status may also occur for an InfoObject if changes are made to the structure at field level. Postprocessing the object involves converting the relevant tables in accordance with the activation log.
    ¡        No indicator: The object is not available in an active version.
    7. Make Settings in the Selection List and Install.
    Make the required settings in the  Install selection list:
    Installation Type
    Installation Type
    Information
    Simulate installation
    The system runs a test to see whether any errors are likely to occur during the installation. However, not all errors that may occur can be identified during simulation: Some error messages can only be generated when a real A version (and not just a simulation) is available in the system. You should, therefore, only use the simulation function as a rough guide to help you identify and remove basic errors.
    Install
    The selected objects are installed immediately.
    Install in background
    The selected objects are installed in the background.
    Install and transport
    The selected objects are installed immediately and then written to a transport request.
    SAP recommends you use the Install in background option because installing a large number of objects can take a long time. Modifying objects that are already active can take an especially long time to complete. Make sure that when you install objects in the background that the versions are not matched. It is always the delivery versions that are installed. These are not matched with any available customer versions.

  • ITunes automatically imports music after re-boots (damaged .itl file)

    Every time I start ITunes after my computer has been re-booted, ITunes starts importing my music library and says I have a damaged Music Library file (itl). If I allow ITunes to import my music files then it works fine (all playlists and ratings intact) even if I exit & re-enter the Itunes Application. However, as soon as I reboot the system I get the same damaged file dialog box. Also, I've tried waiting after I have booted the system for a long time to make sure it isn't conflicting with startup processes.
    I have a lot of songs and it takes ITunes a long time to import each time, and it is really frustrating. A temporary work-around is that I make a backup copy of the "itl" and "xml" files each time after I exit Itunes when I have made changes. Then after a reboot when I start Itunes, I stop it from importing the library, finding artwork, gapless scan, etc... I copy the previously saved "itl" & "xml" files into the ITunes folder and the ITunes program will then start up correctly with all my music files, ratings & playlists.
    _*A. COMMENTS*_
    1. Since the "itl" file I copy into itunes folder (as per my work-around)is an exact copy of the "itl" file that was originally in the ITunes folder after a reboot, I don't think the ITunes file is actually damaged, since ITunes will boot from this file after Itunes is started a 2nd time. This also shows me that it is not a path issue.
    _*B. SETUP*_
    1. Dell 3.4Ghz Pentium 4
    2. MS Windows XP Home Edition (service pack 3)
    3. Recently upgraded to ITunes 9.0.3.15 (did not resolve problem)
    4. McAfee Security Center virus/firewall software
    5. Ad-Aware spyware checker(resident)
    6. Spy-bot Search and Destroy spyware checker(resident)
    5. My Music files are located in C:\Documents and Settings\My Name\My Documents\My Music\ (itunes folder is also in same folder)
    6. My Itunes Library .itl file is 2,842 KB
    7. My Itunes Music Library .xml file is 16,580 KB
    _*C. WHAT I HAVE TRIED SO FAR*_
    1. I have re-installed ITunes
    2. I ran scan disk (fixed errors & checked physical disk). It did say it repaired something with an "XML" extension, but I didn't write it down because I thought it fixed the issue, but I don't think it was the itunes xml file
    3. I cleaned a bunch of junk files (internet cache, etc) and defragged
    4. I completely un-installed ITunes and ran a registry cleaner to remove all references to Itunes, Then I installed ITunes. ITunes imported my library and lost all my ratings & playlists however it found all of my artwork (not just automatically created from internet) I re-used an old .itl file for ratings/playlists. However I did try with the newly imported "itl" file and the same problem was persistent
    5. I tried restoring my computer to month ago when everything was working correctly
    6. I tried for hours looking through multiple forums and the ones that I found that have the same problem (only after reboots) were never resolved. Most of the others just tell people how to get their library back
    7. I tried to call Apple Itunes tech support on the phone and was told that Apple does not provide Itunes phone support for PC's. I did pay good money for 30Gb & 16Gb Iphones, so I am giving Apple Money. I would own a Mac however my profession uses software not supported by Apple.
    _*D. QUESTIONS*_
    1. Does anyone have any idea why this is happening? I'm going to try to figure out how to start in some sort of safe mode and log the processes to see if there are any conflicts, but I'm running out of options.
    2. I did copy rather large 1200x12000 artwork from the internet into some of the CD's because I was printing them, however I later removed the artwork and replaced it with 300x300. I noticed the Album artwork Cache & Download folders seems rather large and convoluted. I was thinking about possibly deleting all artwork from my library and deleting these folders to see if there is something in there.
    Please Help, I've spent far too many hours trying to resolve this issue. I just don't understand that after uninstalling, and cleaning registry that re-installing didn't fix this issue.

    Followup:
    The link you posted wasn't really any help, but I believe I have finally resolved the issue (after 2 consecutive reboots without problems -- knocks on wood). I wish I could single out exactly what resolved the issue, but I went crazy and did a lot of things last night/this morning (and didn't have the patience to reboot after each single change).
    Here's a list of a few things I remember doing
    1. Installed updated hardware drivers using Uniblue driver update software (a couple were bundles that affected quite a few things). I booted up this morning only to get a repeated "REFMONINITIALIZATIONFAILED" dialog with the blue screen of death. I wasn't worried as I did a complete backup of all my personal files last night, anticipating a full rebuild today. So the next time I rebooted I used the "last known good configuration".
    2. I don't have any indexing programs (that I'm aware of), but I clicked the library file, xml files and all other files in the itunes library root directory and unchecked the "For fast searching, allow Indexing Service to index this file" box after right clicking and selecting "properties" and then "advanced"
    3. I rolled back ALL Uniblue SpeedUPMYPC2009 system tweaks (except internet) that were automatically done when I ran the program on 1/10/10.
    I have a strong inclination that one (or more) of the Uniblue system tweaks did something that prevented my library file from being accessed the first time after after a boot that I started ITunes. I apparently hadn't accessed ITunes for a couple weeks after I ran the Uniblue program, so it didn't register that it could have caused the issue. At some point in the future I'll try to pin down which tweak caused the problem, but for now I've wasted far too much dealing with this and don't care if my computer runs a few milliseconds slower.
    Thank you for responding

  • PO Releases 'invoice match option'

    Hi,
    The PO has one match option at the header and a different match option at the release line. This is causing an inability to match the invoice in Payables until it gets correctd.
    How do i check where this invoice match option is defaulting from?
    Is it from the supplier level or the Po header level.
    and how can this problem be corrected?
    Any ideas?
    Thanks,
    Ashwathy

    Hi,
    I think you are mixing the two things,well i think anyway. Match approval level and match invoice options are independent. You can set the match approval level as default in the setup to say 2-way. Assuming you have done that when you enter the shipment details you can select the match invoice option to PO or to receipt.
    Now match approval and match invoice are part of the optional information on the shipments. SO if you do not enter the match approval the default which is set to 2-way will be picked up.If you want match invoice to be PO, i suggest you don't enter any value for it, if the match invoice is NULL it will be displayed as PO so i am assuming it will be default unless you change it to receipt.
    I think this should resolve your issue.
    Regards,
    Utsav.

  • Another "horrible performance after upgrading to Lion" post

    Hi,
    Sorry for yet another "my computer has horrible performance after upgrading to Lion" post.  I did search the forum before posting.
    I have a relatively new Macbook Pro, 8 GB RAM, 2.8 MHz Intel i7 CPU.  I upgraded from Snow Leopard to Lion, then Lion to 10.7.2.
    The first time I upgraded, I no longer had my user account, so restored from Time Machine back to SL.  After a month or so, I hoped Apple had fixed the bug, so I redownloaded and reinstalled, and this time the upgrade succeeded.
    Ever since the upgrade, my MBP runs like a dog.  I get the spinning beach ball constantly, across all range of applications, both Apple and 3rd party.  Occasionally it doesn't wake up from sleep (close, open lid) and I have to kick it in the head by holding down the power button. 
    I've tried booting into the recovery partition, running disk utility, and repairing disk and permissions.  I've read elsewhere (Google hit) that doing a completely clean install fixes the performance issues (for those users anyway).
    I know this is a fairly generic post, but any advice on how to maximize machine performance under Lion, or should I revert to Snow Leopard?  Do I really have to wipe the disk, install fresh, restore all non-OS files (don't accidentally wipe a required OS file), then reapply the 10.7.2 maintenance?  Yuck.
    Thanks,
    Scott

    try an SMC reset if you are not seeing any weird spikes in Activity Monitor and you've deduced that none of your third party drivers or apps are interfearing with the way lion works.
    Resetting the SMC on portables with a battery you should not remove on your own
    Note: Portable computers that have a battery you should not remove on your own include MacBook Pro (Early 2009) and later, all models of MacBook Air, and MacBook (Late 2009).
    Shut down the computer.
    Plug in the MagSafe power adapter to a power source, connecting it to the Mac if its not already connected.
    On the built-in keyboard, press the (left side) Shift-Control-Option keys and the power button at the same time.
    Release all the keys and the power button at the same time.
    Press the power button to turn on the computer. 
    Note: The LED on the MagSafe power adapter may change states or temporarily turn off when you reset the SMC.

  • After Burning options:: Disk Utility and Using Finder

    I have a Burning Question.
    When burning from the Finder, the dialog box I get doesn't have the same options and the dialog box when using Disk Utility.  Is this normal?  Is there a way to have the options available in the Finder dialog box??  It would be convenient to have the Finder eject the disk after burning, but I can't seem to find a way to turn on that option.
    Screen shot using Disk Utility::
    Screen shot using the Finder::
    Am I missing something?  I can't find anything in Preferences to adjust the After Burning options while using the Finder to burn.
    Can someone shed some light on this??  Thank you.

    Are you saying then that the dialog boxes I get are normal (as shown in my screen shots)? And, those options are not available using the Finder?  There is no way to change the preferences for the Finder burning method?
    So, whatever options you have set in Disk Utility with carry over to the Finder automatically?
    Also, I noticed there is no way to set these options without performing an actual burn??  I tried to change the check from Mount to Eject and it doesn't stick (I chose Cancel), so I'm guessing it only sticks if you actually burn a disc.
    Correct?

  • Performing Quick Match Programmatically

    Hi Experts,
    I 've a requirement to perform quick match of AP Invoices with POs programmatically. Here is the scenario:
    1) Invoice is imported through an external source
    2) Invoice has only one line (equal to the sum of "ITEM" type line amounts on the PO)
    3) My approach is to invoke the ap_matching_pkg.quick_match_line_generation seeded API to generate the invoice lines matching the PO lines and then invoke the AP_MATCHING_UTILS_PKG.MATCH_INVOICE_LINE for the invoice lines that have the PO number set.
    I 'am facing the following exception while invoking the ap_matching_pkg.quick_match_line_generation and I 'am not able to proceed further.
    ORA-20001: APP-SQLAP-10000: ORA-00001: unique constraint (AP.AP_INVOICE_LINES_U1) violated occurred in
    Generate_Lines_For_QuickMatch<-Quick_Match_PO_RCV<-CUSTOM_PO
    with parameters ( invoice_id = 362527, match option = P)
    Any inputs on where I 'am going wrong will be immensely helpful.
    Thanks,
    Ganapathi

    Hi and welcome to the forum.  
    Unfortunately, I understand your frustration.
    The best advise I can give is a particular way to try and enter a Quick Match room.
    When you choose your event, it will then start to load and a white flag will cross the screen.
    This is followed a few seconds later by a second white flag.
    As soon as second white flag crosses the screen, hit the 'X' button.
    (Essentially you are hitting 'X' on the 'warmup' option even before it appears on screen)
    For whatever reason, I find this helps to successfully load into a Quick Match event.

  • Bulk import performance

    Hi Folks,
    We're getting ready to migrate our first teams into our new Vibe environment but I'm wondering if we can do anything to improve the performance of bulk imported documents (drag and drop into the webclient).
    Our environment: Vibe 3.3 on SLES11 SP2 (3 virtual servers)
    Server 1 (Tomcat):
    2x CPU
    8GB RAM (Java cache 6GB)
    Server 2 (Lucene):
    2x CPU
    8GB RAM (Java cache 6GB)
    Server 3 (MySQL):
    2x CPU
    4GB RAM
    When I do a bulk import, files import and everything is fine but if I'm concerned about the time it takes. During my test imports the only process that has any significant utilization is Java on the Tomcat server, but it bounces from between 30-90% on a single CPU. If needed I can easily crank these VMs up to 8 CPUs and 64GB RAM if needed. That said, if I can't tax the current servers, there's no need to increase resources.
    Does anyone know a way to improve the import performance? I want to be able to peg all my CPUs at 100% if need be.

    Hi John,
    many thanks for your reply. Import and gathering stats is done through an application. I have only the following information about what is supposed to happen when we run the statistic gathering process:
    "Optimization - Uses sub-commands for database optimization (DBMS_STATS*). These are important for the Oracle optimizer to generate optimal execution plans.
    Optimize Schema - Runs the DBMS_STATS.GATHER_SCHEMA_STATS(USER,cacade=>true) command. This procedure gathers (not estimates) statistics for all objects in a schema and on the indexes.
    Optimize the schema after you import a industry model from a dump file, and run the Optimize command whenever you have extensive changes to the data, such as imports or major updates.
    Optimize Feature Classes - Runs the DBMS_STATS.GATHER_TABLE_STATS([USER], [Table], cascade=>true) command for the feature class tables. This procedure gathers table, column, and index statistics."
    The application we use allows to the gather statistics in two different places. I now realise that we have only used one of the two so far and if my understanding of the documentation is right the one we have used does not gather all statistics. With your explanation the observed behavouir makes sense. Next time I will gather statistics using the second functionality to see if that one gathers all statistics at once.
    Many thanks again, Rob

  • Asset query execution performance after upgrade from 4.6C to ECC 6.0+EHP4

    Hi,guys
    I am encounted a weird problems about asset query execution performance after upgrade to ECC 6.0.
    Our client had migrated sap system from 4.6c to ECC 6.0. We test all transaction code and related stand report and query.
    Everything is working normally except this asset depreciation query report. It is created based on ANLP, ANLZ, ANLA, ANLB, ANLC table; there is also some ABAP code for additional field.
    This report execution costed about 6 minutes in 4.6C system; however it will take 25 minutes in ECC 6.0 with same selection parameter.
    At first, I am trying to find some difference in table index ,structure between 4.6c and ECC 6.0,but there is no difference about it.
    i am wondering why the other query reports is running normally but only this report running with too long time execution dump messages even though we do not make any changes for it.
    your reply is very appreciated
    Regards
    Brian

    Thanks for your replies.
    I check these notes, unfortunately it is different our situation.
    Our situation is all standard asset report and query (sq01) is running normally except this query report.
    I executed se30 for this query (SQ01) at both 4.6C and ECC 6.0.
    I find there is some difference in select sequence logic even though same query without any changes.
    I list there for your reference.

    But it changed to first select ANLA,and open cursor ANLP,then select  ANLC,ANLB,ANLZ,at last fetch ANLP.
    Probably,it is the real reason why it is running long time in ECC 6.0.
    Is there any changes for query selcection logic(table join function) in ECC 6.0.

  • Low quality video after import from After Effects in FCP 7, but not FCP5

    Hi everyone,
    I trying to export a video from final cut pro. This video has motion graphics I built in After Effects, as well as footage from my T2i camera. I then took it into FCP to drop in audio and edit all my elements together.
    When I exported a 30 second preview a few days ago in FCP5, the .mov file retained the quality of the export from AE and looked great - no quality lost, smooth animations, high quality video.
    However, I then upgraded to FCP7, and now the quality is lower and the video components are a bit grainy when I export using the same settings. I've tried tweaking the settings, different ways of compression, but nothing is giving me the same clean export. I've even tried changing the sequence settings and putting my footage back down.
    The only other thing that's different is I compressed my T2i footage to ProRes422 before taking it into After Effects, however even the 15 seconds of original footage I didn't compress is grainy now (and so is the original and new graphic work) so I don't think that's it. When I change the timeline sequence settings, I can get it looking good in the preview - but as soon as I render it or send it to compressor it loses quality again.
    The ONLY differently between the two exports was upgrade Final Cut, but that doesn't make any sense to me. I've even tried reopening the preview FCP file (which then asks me to update the file to FCP7) and when I do it exports grainy as well - and NOTHING else has changed in that file or the export settings since my initial export of a 30 seconds preview.
    Does anyone have any suggestions on what the issue may be? Or, what settings I can use to retain the quality when exporting?
    Thanks,
    Lauren

    Thank you so much! Although it's not exporting quite as clear as before, it's much, MUCH better now that I've corrected the timeline dominance - I'd say 95% better; and it will be re-compressed by my clients for web streaming so it doesn't need to be perfect - but the initial quality was garbage.
    I suspect when I exported my T2i footage as a ProRes file, than imported into After Effects, then back into FCP something happened along the way that messed up the quality slightly. Although the only difference in my method between FCP5 and 7 was converting to ProRes; which I only did for editing purposes as the native T2i footage needs to be rendered... which ended up being redundant as all my After Effects work needed to be rendered anyway. Ho hum.
    Do you think the ProRes conversion could account for the quality loss? It wasn't just the footage that was grainy/fuzzy, it was also the After Effects graphic work, which is why I didn't think the converstion could be the culprit. Hm. I'll have to look into this more!
    Thanks again - and so sorry for my delayed reply, I went on vacation shortly after I posted that message and only just got back to this project now

    because of the changes done by me in config tool, the username / password combination is not considered by the system properly i think. Anyways not sure what went on wrong ?
    Any idea ?
    Raja

    If so , then how do i do it at database level .
    Also today i noticed the simillar problem in SDN.but solution is not provided there
    Changed password of SAPJ2EDB user, cannot start WAS 6.40 anymore
    When i search sap.dom fo the same ( as per the above thread says ) , i could see few relevant documents(http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw2004s/helpdata/en/cd/14c93ec2f7df6ae10000000a114084/frameset.htm ) , but not able to follow the instructions. because i couldnt able to open the visual admin to create new user or group .
    Any one have any idea ?
    Thanks
