Problem with USPS shipping integration

At this time the USPS shipping calculation in catalyst only takes weight into consideration, not the size of the box. Which is a huge problem for us, as we typically ship boxes that are over 12". Does anyone know of a way to get an accurate quote from USPS? UPS works fine... it just seems wrong to only offer one shipping service for packages that are over 12", our customers should be able to have a wider range of choices.

BC can't and wont fix this (asked and answered). The issues is that this is a NP-Hard problem (google it), to calculate the size of a box based on several different products is easy for humans but very hard for computers (to do well). With that said I spent the better part of 6 months developing a solution to this. I can calculate the size of a box (any size) based on the products ordered in the most optimized fashion and then query shipping company API to get a price and present that to the customer in realtime.
The solution can;
- Calculate a dynamic box sizes based on a maximum box size of multiple products, with a ship alone feature should the product be bigger than the maximum box size.
- Calculate optimal box packing for multiple products based on multiple fixed box sizes.
- Give different shipping options and prices (overnight, ground etc).
- Inject all this information including a dynamic shipping price into the order before final payment.
- Inject tracking number into order itself.
- Print button on order page to print shipping label.
- Offer percentage discounts for shipping rates for orders lower than X amount.
- Many more things
This is a solution I sell as a package. It depends on what your requirements, we are making sales material at the moment, but it's working in the real world and saving my client thousands of dollars a month.
Drop me message on here if you (or anyone else) are interested.

Problems with the groupware integration

Hy experts,
I have some problems with the groupware integration in SAP. I synchronize a own customized contact with a outlook date.
The current problem is, that the outlook date are not generated only for one person. The Sales Representative and the Sales Representative get each a date.
I have customized Map Activity Text Types and Business Partners to Groupware with:
Description= sales visit
Text Type = Z003 (Outlook information our own texttype )
Planner = 00000022 (Person Responsible )
Fct. Participnt = empty
Fctn: Cont. Person = empty
Can anyone tell me, how to customize the system, that only the Sales Representative get the date.
I hope for help.
Kind regards
Torsten

hi
it is pretty simple
you just maintain the calender mentainence only for the sales represntative,
make sure that the person you want to display on calender ,the function category for that should be activity partner only
and in transaction also maintain the calender settings
just "person responsible" should have flag of callender as checked ,rest should be unchecked
so just go inside your PDP and therein partner function maintain the settings
in case of any doubt please revert back
best regards

Problems printing USPS shipping labels

I have trouble almost every time I try to print a shipping label from the Post Office. Usually it just stalls and eventually I get a message the plugin has crashed. While it is tryIng to work the fan speed of the computer always increases as if the CPU is working overtime. I can try this several times and after several minutes it may go ahead and produce the print dialog and print. This happens so often that I have to use Chrome to print USPS labels as it does not use the adobe plugin that will not work in IE explorer or Firefox. I am using Win 7 64 bit and Reader 10.1.1. I have uninstalled and reinstalled without improvement. Any suggestions? Thanks

I have the same problem. Doesn't work with Chrome, Firefox, Windows Ex, or Safari. Also have the same problem with TDAmeritrade. But, for some reason, it does ok with my bank statements. Tried Reader 9 with the same results. No error messages, no nothing. Just does NOT even try to print. Tried taking off the security for the sites, but then I can't use them.

Strange problem with connection to Integrator Server

Hi,
I have a strange problem with making a connection to my Integrator Server.
I have one workspace folder that I share between Integrator version 2.4 and 3.0 (I have several versions installed for testing purposes)
When I try to create a new Integrator Server Project in Integrator Designer I get this nice 'Connect to CloverETL Server' panel.
By default: the connection URL is http://localhost:8080/clover. So by default Integrator Designer wants to connect to my 2.4 Integrator Server.
When I change this to http://localhost:8301/clover by using the drop-down box and fill in my credentials everything is looking fine. I click Next.
The problem now is that every time I switch to the next or previous configuration windows the connection is reset to the default http://localhost:8080/clover.
So it seems like Integrator Designer resets the CloverETL Server URL each time I switch to a different configuration window by using NEXT or BACK.
The problem occurs in both versions of Integrator Designer.
Does anybody know that the problem is? Can I change the default URL to my 3.0 Integrator Server?
Greetings,
Marcow

I'm using iPlanet App server as well and experiencing similar problem. I load my SQL Server driver by Class.forName("com.microsoft.jdbc.sqlserver.SQLServerDriver"), then use DriverManager.getDriver() to obtain the Driver.
However, the Driver returned is not the SQLServerDriver as expected. The Driver returned is com.netscape.server.jdbc.Driver! And then when I do Driver.getConnection("jdbc:microsoft:sqlserver://MyServer"), it throws an SQLException saying that it doesn't accept a jdbc:microsoft:sqlserver subprotocol. Well, of course it doesn't, it's not a microsoft Driver at all.
I suspect the problem is that the netscape Driver's acceptsURL() method ALWAYS returns true in iPlanet app server, thus when you getDriver(), the netscape Driver is always returned (and always returned as the first one since it's default?). Thus even though the same piece of code works fine as a standalone application, it just doesn't work on iPlanet app server.
My work around is:
Class.forName("my.Driver");
Enumeration enu = DriverManager.getDrivers();
Driver useThis = null;
while (enu.hasMoreElements()) {
Driver d = (Driver)enu.nextElement();
if (d.getClass().toString().indexOf("my.Driver") > -1) {
useThis = d;
Mind that my above code does not have an performance issue. If you look into the source code of how DriverManager get a Driver for a particular URL, it also loads the whole set of available Drivers, then call acceptsURL() method on each of them to find the first "suitable" one. Thus time complexity is the same.
I know this is not a very elegant solution and it defeats the purpose of having a DriverManager. Does any one else has a better way to solve this problem, like a way to specify the priority of each Driver so that SQLServerDriver is returned before the netscape Driver?
Thanks a lot.

Problem with nvidia and integrated graphics

I'm having graphics problems with my notebook. I installed the latest Nvidia 820m drivers but still 3d apps are very slow.m Also inside dxdiag it shows that the integrated graphics has only 265mb.

Thanks. I will give it a try tomorrow.
Is it meant to have both the Intel and Nvidia drivers installed?
Sort of. You don't install the regular nvidia drivers package but the bumblebee one.

WWI server problem with report shipping order

Hi everybody,
we have a problem with the WWI server and report shipping orders for Inbound documents (PDF):
after we created an entry in CVD1 and using buttons "Accept" and "Ship immediately" we run the report RCVDEVEN. First time we did it the WWI server started working and ended with error but assigned the correct PDF. After that, the WWI server didt start anyway.
First error message:

The local computer may not have the necessary registry information or message DLL files to display messages from a remote computer. You may be able to use the /AUXSOURCE= flag to retrieve this description; see Help and Support for details. The following information is part of the event: PRD.
Second error message after second attempt:

Any ideas?
Thank you very much in advance and best regards,

Hi folks,
fixed the problem myself. There have been some documents with error in the printer queue of the WWI server.

Problems with my shipping...

Hi, i sent in my Ipod nano first gen to the replacement program, finnaly i got my email today saying that the new ipod nano is beeing shipped to me, they supplied me with a "shipping number" which doesnt work, i have waited 24 hours.
"Your item was sent through , with tracking number 8185217128, which should be active within 24 hours."
Do you notice something wierd?
It doesnt say with which freighting company i will get the package from it's just a space where that should be wroten. when i click the "tracking number" nothing happens, not in my ipad or in my computer.
When i hold my finger over the number in the ipad i get this following adress: x-apple-msg-load://BD8A92F8-E69A-477B-983F-93970DEC16AB/
I tried to put this adress in the ipad brower but it told me that it couldnt open the site, i have never seen such a link so i dont know how it works and where it should take me,
I have tried the "tracking number" in UPS, DHL and Fedex's tracking number searcher with no success.
Help would be appriciated, thanks.

Yeah i did get my ipod, i called apple on friday 1/6 and they told me that my ipod was goin to be delivered trough the local delivery company ( not with ups, fedex, dhl etc) and usually you dont get any tracking number when something is sent trought the ordinary mail service not in sweden anyway, so that may be the deal with you too, maybe they've sent your package trough the mail service that youre from so you should expect it real soon.
I hope i helped you answer your question :)

Problem with activation of integration model

Hi,
I am facing a problem. Whenever I activate the integration model for vendors, a "CIF_LOAD" window appears with message "Should interval be created" with YES and NO option. Why does this window appears? After clicking on NO option the message "Determining delta model" appears in the status bar and after some time the program gets terminated due to time out.
I have tried following solutions.
Refreshed the indexes of the two tables BDCPS and BDCP using DB20.
Executed the transaction BD22 in test run mode, but I am not sure which change pointers option(obsolete or processed) to select for deletion and also which message type. I selected the obsolete option but here too the program got terminated after time out.
After this I selected the message type "CREFET" (Get Vendor Data), "CRECOR" (Core vendor master data distribution), "CREMAS" (vendor master data distribution) but there were no change pointers for this message type.
Besides I am doing this on prduction environment and other integration models like plant etc got activated.
Please help us with this.

Gaurav Patil

Problem with Facebook & Twitter integration in OS X Mountain Lion

I recently downloaded OS X Mountain Lion from App Store, everything went okay until the next few days I noticed that Facebook and Twitter integration doesn't seems to work anymore. Whenever I clicked on 'Click to tweet or post', nothing happened. Help me..Thanks.

Same issue on my machine, OSX 10.8.2, mid-2010 MBP 13-inch
Nothing happens when clicking on "Click to Tweet" & "Click to Post" on the Notification area.
Have done the "Remove all website data" and "Reset Safari" procedure, but to no avail.
Sharing button on Safari works. It's only the buttons on the Notification Area that do not work.
