Question about using 1 SETID for Vendor Master

Hello everyone,
I work for a large healthcare system and we are currently in the PeopleSoft training classes and are about to move into the design phase. We are a multi hospital system and are moving everyone to PeopleSoft for our ERP system. My questions is for Supply Chain purposes and hope that someone can help clarify. It is our goal to use 1 vendor master SETID for our entire hospital system. Please see my question below.
The customer account # for a vendor is currently at the set id. The customer account # is specific to an entity as it identifies where the vendor should ship. How can we have one vendor master (setid) and still allow the correct customer account # to default on the PO (the buyer needs this when calling in an order)?

On each of these 'dumb terminals' I assume you are looking to access the complete Mac desktop from the central Mac?
Unfortunately, this can't be done.
In the past, the setup you describe first was used on mainframes where each end node was a dumb terminal. But it was just text.
Next came X11 which does mostly what you are asking about, but each end node is basically a full computer in itself. You can remotely log into a central server and get a complete desktop session. This would take using a central computer that is running full X-Windows and then you'd need a PC running Linux, or running Windows and a X-Terminal package like Exceed or a Mac with X11 installed (not sure if you can make the Mac X11 do a full-blown desktop X session.) Note that as the central server, you'd need a computer running an OS with full-blown X-Windows (Linux, Solaris, HP-UX, etc.) -- OS X is UNIX but it doesn't run full X-Windows as its window manager.
Finally, there is what are called 'thin clients' ... a good example is Sun Microsystems' SunRay... it's enough hardware on the client side to provide display, keyboard and mouse. They boot off a central Sun Solaris server and work just like X-Windows clients. The difference here is that the SunRay unit can't work on its own; it has no disk, and has to boot from the SunRay server.
And of course there's Windows Terminal Services, which lets you do the same thing with Windows. I think that takes Windows Server edition software on the central computer, and then a regular PC as a client.
Sounds like your only option is to use Mac minis as you suggest. But then there's no need for a central computer to share, obviously.

  • Question about partner determination for customer master

    Hi, experts,
    I have already read the documentation about this topic at forum. Still I have the following question:
    why should we assign the partner function to the account group? According to my understanding, the partner function has to be assigned to partner determination procedure and then through partner determination it is associated with the account group. If the partner can be assigned to account group directly, why do we still need determination procedure?
    Best regards,
    Fan

    Hi
    Let us consider an existing Partner Determination procedure in standard SAP.
    The  Partner Determination Procedure (e.g, ABCD) can contain multiple "Partner Functions". Suppose there are 100 numbers of Partner Functions in the Procedure.
    We assign  "Partner determination Procedure"  to the  "Account Group", so that , the assigned Procedure will be applicable for the Customer master data created under that Account group.
    Suppose, Partner determination Procedure "ABCD" has been assigned to Account Group "XYZ".
    Now, any Customer created under Account Group "XYZ", the Procedure "ABCD" will be applicable for them.  Right?
    We have already discussed , the Procedure "ABCD" contains 100 different "Partner Functions".
    Out of these 100 Partner Functions, only those Partner Functions, which are permitted  by the Account Group "XYZ" , they can only be entered in the Sales area data > Partner Function tab of the Customer master data.
    Suppose, only 6 Partner functions (out of 100 no) are assigned to Account Group "XYZ".
    So these 6 Partner Functions are permitted by the said Account Group "XYZ" and these 6 Partner Functions can only be entered in the Customer master data.
    So, to summerise it,  if you want to enter a Partner Function in the Customer master, then
    - First, that Partner Function must be available in the Procedure which applicable, and
    - Second, that Partner Function also  must have been permitted (assigned) by the Account Group .
    I hope, it is clarified.

  • Question about using plans for more than one device

    I have a Verizon wireless broad band modem I currently use in conjunction for my lap top. I am looking at getting a cell phone soon and I am curious if I can use that plan, that is currently attached to the modem, with this hypothetical cellphone as well, or if I would need get separate plans for both devices.

    If you want to keep your data from being merged, you will need to have separate iCloud accounts with separate IDs.  You can still track your devices using Find My iPhone, you will just need to be signed into the iCloud account for the device you are trying to track.  You can also continue to share the same ID for iTunes purchasing; it does not need to be the same as the ID used for iCloud.
    In order to migrate your daughter to her own account, on her phone go to Settings>iCloud, scroll to the bottom and tap Delete Account.  (This will only delete the account from her phone, not from iCloud.  Your devices will not be effected by this.)  When prompted about what to do with the iCloud data, choose Keep On My iPhone.  Next, set up a new iCloud account using a different Apple ID (if you don't have one, tap Get a Free Apple ID at the bottom).  Then turn iCloud data syncing for contacts, etc. back to On, and when prompted about merging with iCloud, choose Merge.  This will upload her data to the new account.
    You can then go to icloud.com on your computer and sign into each iCloud account separately and manually delete the data you don't want from each account (such as deleting your daughter's contacts from your account, and vice versa).

  • Design question about using DHCP for an SSID

    I've got an SSID that I would like to send out to a public subnet (wifi for guests in the building) but because it's public i don't want to waste a lot of addresses.  So i'm considering a DMZ-type area for the clients to get a RFC1918 address with a single address on the outside.
    Something like this:
    Clients -> WLC4402 -> 10.x.x.xpool -> ??? -> Public subnet
    I know the WLC can dish out my 10.x.x.x subnet to the clients. But my question is the ??? between that and a single IP address and the Public subnet.
    The WLC can't handle that part can it?
    Obviously i could just use a simple linksys router or something to handle that and the ip address pool, but i was hoping there was something in the WLC that can handle it all for me.
    Ideas?  Suggestions?
    Thanks in Advance!

    I guess you are looking for the NAT on the WLC.. this feature is not der on WLC yet.. the WLC acts as a perfect layer 2 device.. this is done only on the layer 3 device currently..
    let me know if this answers your question!!

  • Questions about Using Itunes for Nano. New User

    Hi everyone! i am a new ipod user that is new to the itunes software. I have a few questions regarding making playlists and transferring them into the ipod nano and deleting songs from the ipod nano thru itunes or the device. Can someone provide a link or a detail procedure? i've tried already and i can't figure it out. Thank you!

    If I understand what it is you want to accomplish correctly, you can do this if you turn off automatic synchronization. Connect your iPod and click the iPod Options button at the bottom of iTunes. Click the Music button and select "Manually manage songs and playlists." You can then delete specific tracks and playlists directly from the iPod, In addition, iTunes will then not automatically remove the tracks from the iPod if you delete them from iTunes. Note that you'll have to drag songs from your library or playlist to iPod in the Source list to add new tracks.
    For further information, please see page 22 of your iPod nano manual.
    Hope this answers the question.

  • LSMW for Vendor master

    Hi All,
    I am trying to use LSMW for Vendor Master upload.
    I have gone through all the steps and it is showing correct data in "Display Read Data".

    However when i am running step "Create Batch Input Session" , it is giving following errors:
    (1) Transaction XK01 is not supported
    (2) editing ws terminated.
    Wt could be possible reason for this,I am using standard Batch method for object 0040 and program name RFBIKR00.

    hello,
    in the field mapping step, check whether tcode field has been assigned as XK01 properly.
    Reward Points if it is Useful.

    Make sure that your bean is implementing the serializable interface and that

    your post is rubbish, substitutions and validations are in use in document posting, not for master data creation. Even the OP told this, when he asked his question...

  • Workflow for Vendor Master

    Do we have any functionality of workflow for vendor master.

    Thanks for your reply.
    Dual control functionality we have already explained to the users. they are not convinced with that.
    what users are looking at is the the purchase clerk will enter the purchasing related data in vendor master then the mail for approval will go the manager purchase. Upon approval, the accounting clerk will enter the company code date and for approval it will go to accounts manager. Once vendor master has been approved then only the transaction against this vendor should be possible.
    Clerk creates vendor master> Manager Approves> then only vendor master is available for use in transaction.
    this is the functionality the user is looking at.
    Since I am a MM consultant does not know about work flow. If this kind of functionality is feasible in workflow then we can raise request in our company to arrange for a workflow consultant.
    before that we need to be sure on that whether it is achievable or not.
    Please confirm.

    Hi!
    You don't need to program the 'translation' from a file into input data for RFBIKR00 yourself. SAP has done this, so that you can do this (nearly) without programming. If you need some special conversion rules, then you can add some coding, but most is possible without.
    Have a look at transaction LSMW. It's not so complicated it looks at the first time. Just look at <a href="http://help.sap.com/saphelp_erp2004/helpdata/en/ad/2d54a41d7011d2b42e006094b944c8/frameset.htm">help</a> for the way to use LSMW.
    Regards,
    Christian
    P.S.: sorry for lost your efforts, but you should switch to LSMW
