PROGRESS ANALYSIS: what does COST PROPORTIONAL measurement method use for?

Hi Experts,
When I tried to use the COST PROPORTIONAL measurement method, I found 1 thing:
+ actual POC = actual cost / overall value
+ BCWP = actual POC x overall value
It means that BCWP = ACWP (actual cost) --> Cost Variance (CV) = BCWP - ACWP = 0
Hence we cannot see the cost variance when we apply the COST PROPORTIONAL method.
Could you please help me to explain the use of COST PROPORTIONAL method?
Thanks and best regards,
Khoa Huynh

Hi Abdul Khader,
Thanks for your answer. I got your point.
But can you explain more about "Cost proportional measurement method is suitable for work packages where costs and services have a constant relationship"
Thanks a lot,
Khoa Huynh

    What does "into corresponding field" addition used for?. I have seen them in open sql statements. Please explain?

    before knowing this you have to know how u write select in ABAP....
    think you have a str./internal table itab with this strucutre:
    data: begin of itab occurs 0,
             vbeln like vbak-vbeln,
             posnr like vbap-posnr,
             netwrt like vbap-netwrt,
           end of itab.
    u have to follow the same order in the select statement...
    select vbeln posnr netwrt
    from vbap
    into table itab
    where......
    Think that u had some concern and coudnt write a select in same order then u write it like this...
    Performance wise its very bad...so ppl generally try to eliminate it..

  • What does 'Usage' really measure?

    I just completed 2 experiments. Both cases I let a fully charged phone sit unused while I slept and checked it in the morning. One time had WiFi enabled, the other had WiFi off.
    With WiFi on, the phone logged 2hrs 33mins of 'usage' during 7 hours of standby while I slept.
    With the WiFi off, the phone logged 1hr 10 mins of usage during 7 hours of standby while I slept.
    I have this intermitten problem where the phone 'turns itself on.' That is, the 'slide to unlock' screen is displayed when I don't touch the phone. This is intermitten, and sometimes is like a 1/10 Hz stobe for 5 mins, and sometime doesn't do it for an hour (and so, I can't convince a 'Genius' that anything is wrong). This is a 5 week old phone in pristine condition. I noticed these symptons about 10 days ago.
    What's going on here? What does usage really measure? Can it be measuring the amount of time the phone has turned itself on, or something else entirely?
    Please advise, Thanks,
    Gravity Mike

    Thanks for the comments. I do not have any auto-checking enabled for my email, I always check manually. I'm not sure of any other background tasks that could be happening.
    I do find it interesting that somebody else has seen the screen 'wake up' without touching their phone. I'm not sure, but this maybe happened with that latest rev - or whatever is broken seems to have happened at the same time. What I noticed first was shortened battery life, then the screen flashes, then the unexplained 'usage' time. Maybe I should try going back to 1.1.2 (but I love the home screen customization feature, I have traffic and weather radar with one button push!)
    I hope this is a bug that can/will be fixed and not a hardware error. I'll keep observing.
    Cheers,

    can u plz give the list of country specific infotypes used for PA n OM Module.
    Thanks
    Archana

    Hi Archana,
    To Upload bulk data I think BDC is the best and effecient way.
    Regarding Infotypes we dont have any country specific Infotypes in OM & PA. In Payroll we do have according to country wise.
    I hope you had understood the point

    I think you not got the real meaning here.
    <local-address> element is used to specify a local address (IP or DNS name) and port that the TCP/IP ServerSocket (opened by the connection acceptor) will listen on. It's not a filter used to confine the client IP address.
    For example, the following will instruct the connection acceptor to bind the TCP/IP ServerSocket to 192.168.0.2:9099:
    <local-address>
      <address>192.168.0.2</address>
      <port>9099</port>
      <reusable>true</reusable>
    </local-address>

  • What does the "i" in "iPod" stand for and why is lowercase?

    What does the "i" in "iPod" stand for and why is it lowercase?

    I dont know, I think that was pretty funny.
    The i first appeared as a prefix for the iMac. As this was the first one to be equipped with the internet it's a pretty safe bet to assume that it stood for 'internet'.
    After that it became a bit of a signature for apple and a kind of unofficial trademark and gets used on everything cos apple think it looks trendy.
    Although to be fair the iPod does play tunes that you download using the internet, so there is a link i suppose.
    I think this is right but will no doubt get some Mac nerd disagreeing.

  • What does 'include render files' option mean for when I duplicate a project. I deselected it and the duplicated file is very slow so maybe this has affected it. It's a shame cause original project is deleted. Have I lost the rendered files? Thanks

    What does 'include render files' option mean for when I duplicate a project. I deselected it and the duplicated file is very slow so maybe this has affected it. It's a shame cause original project is deleted. Have I lost the rendered files? Thanks

    Yes, if you duplicate without the render files and delete the original project you lose the render files. But render files get recreated - automatically if you have it set in the preferences (which is the default option). It just takes time.

  • What's the best flash to use for nighttime sports games?

    What's the best flash to use for nighttime sporting events? I have a rebel XT and I'm pushing it to its limits trying to stop the action. I've tried a speedlite 430 but it didn't have a hook up for an external battery pack and I was told I'd need the extra power. Just tried the 580ex ll on Friday but at the 1/1 setting, it didn't flash for each frame in a burst, even with the external power. I should have backed it down to 1/4 but didn't know at the time. Any thought on a really good flash for night sports? Is the 580 a good choice?

    JUst as Tim_S said. YOu will want a external battery pack. Unforatannly the 430 does not have the option to plug in a external battery pack so will want to pick up a 580 or one of the new 600 series. 
    Then you start looking at the battery packs. I recommend Quantum power packs

  • What is "FND : Diagnostics %"  profile option used for ?

    What is "FND : Diagnostics %" profile option used for ?
    How is it different from "FND : Debug%" profiles ?

    I guess my above update was misleading (Sorry for that) .. Please find below more details about (FND: Diagnostics) and (FND: Debug Log Enabled):
    Both profile options are used to configure logging, the difference between them is (FND: Debug Log Enabled) is a database profile option used to configure logging while (FND: Diagnostics) is used to configure logging to screen.
    Logging to screen provides:
    - The ability to enable logging on a per HTTP request or per HTTP session basis.
    - Dynamic configuration which does not require restarting any servers or changing any log profiles.
    - A convenient lightweight mechanism to diagnose performance issues. Each message is timestamped to the millisecond.
    If Logging to Screen is enabled, then the Java log messages generated for a particular HTTP Request-Response are buffered in memory and appended to the end of the generated HTML page.
    This feature does not affect any existing configurations of file or database logging. File or database logging continues to behave per the configured middle tier log properties and/or log profile values.
    Note that this mechanism currently provides only Java layer messages. Regular file or database logging should be used if messages from other layers (e.g., PL/SQL) are needed.
    In brief ..
    FND: Diagnostics (Self-Service) --> To see this, Login as that user and navigate to self-service, Click the Diagnostics link in the upper right corner
    - Default = “No”
    - Recommendation = “No”
    - Requires APPS password to use Examine function
    - Usually set to “Yes” during development

  • What brands and type can I use for my iMac 20" internal Hard Drive?

    what brands and type can I use for my iMac 20" aluminium internal Hard Drive?
    can I use WD caviar black?
    is it too hot?

    If you are replacing the drive because the existing one is faulty, that's one thing. If you just want more space, you should take advantage of having a decently fast and relatively small capacity drive in there now (instead of a huge drive). Get an external FireWire drive and off-load most of your user data there. Make your internal drive dedicated to mostly your OS and app files, with plenty of free space. That setup will make your iMac run more efficiently. I won't go into more detail, because I'm not answered your specific question... You can post back with any questions, if interested...
    To answer your questions...
    You should be able to use any SATA 3.5-inch drive internally, but you should probably keep it at or under 1TB. The main concerns are power usage and heat dissipation. A drive like the WD Caviar Green would be ideal in terms of power and heat, but they do have slower (or variable) spin rate. I have one as an external drive (750GB) and it is amazingly quiet and cool. If I had to replace the internal drive because the current drive failed, I'd put it inside. I'll trade a bit of pure performance for the efficiency (including low noise), and these drives are more advanced with higher data density and larger cache, so the trade-off from slower spin rate may not be so bad.
    You can check your current drive's model number (which is shown in System Profiler) to get the specs online. The stock drive in my old +Late 2006+ iMac is a 7200 RPM drive. The Caviar Black is a 7200 RPM drive, with a newer design. So if you want to use a Caviar Black in there, I think it would be OK.
