Question regarding index function in fortran

Hi guys,
we are currently migrating to F90 from F77 fortran.
When I link the code, I get link error on index function with f90 compiler, but it works fine with F77.
Symbol not found error
__f_index_a dbg/driver.o
Can you please tell where can I find the symbol definition.
-Prabhu

As I mentioned before, the value of a constant that does not fit in the space allocated for it is undefined. Different compilers will handle it differently.
Sun's f77 compiler was derived from the BSD UNIX f77 compiler, which in turn was derived from AT&T's f77 compiler. AT&T's f77 compiler was written by Stuart Feldman while he was at Bell Labs. Perhaps influenced by the C programming language, he chose to increase the space allocated for an integer constant if its value did not fit in the space that would normally be allocated for it, up to the size of the largest supported integer type.
Sun's f90 and f95 compilers were derived from the CraySoft f90 compiler. The CraySoft compiler chopped off the high-order bits of integer values that did not fit in the available space.
Sun's Fortran team recognized that the behavior of Sun f90 and f95 in this regard would be a problem for some users. We devised a scheme that would resolve the problem in most cases. The scheme has been partially implemented, but there is still a lot of work left to be done.

Question regarding decode function.

Hi friends,
I have a question regarding using decode.
I'm try'g to explain my problem using emp table.
Can you guys please help me out.
For example consider emp table, now i want to get all manager id's concatenated for 2 employees.
I tried using following code
declare
v_mgr_code number(10);
v_mgr1      number(4);
v_mgr2      number(4);
begin
select mgr into    v_mgr1
from    scott.emp
where   empno = 7369;
select mgr into    v_mgr2
from    scott.emp
where   empno = 7499;
select v_mgr1||'-'||v_mgr2 into v_mgr_code from dual;
end;now instead of writing 2 select statements can i write one select statement using decode function ?

Questions regarding update function module

Hello experts,
I am on customer site to help them investigate one issue: they have a background job which runs periodically.
In the report database table A is changed firstly ( new entries are inserted ), then a update function module is called via keyword CALL FUNCTION ... IN UPDATE TASK.
Inside the function module database table B is updated. ( existing entries are updated )
Customer issue:
sometimes they find A is updated as expected, however B remains unchanged at the same time.
customer could not find exact steps to reproduce the issue. However the issue does exist there and occur from time to time.
the issue could only be reproduced in their production system, but works perfectly well in dev & Q system. It is difficult to debug in their production system for trouble shooting.
After analyzing related code, I have one doubt: according to ABAP help on CALL FUNCTION aaa IN UPDATE TASK, I know the function module aaa is called in a new update work process. I wonder whether there is any possibility there this issue might be caused because the update function module fails to get called at all? ( perhaps due to heavy system load so no free update function module could serve the table B update ? )
If update function module fails to execute, is there any system utility to record this? That is to say, will it be recorded in such as SM13 or SM21?
Looking forward to your expertise on this topic!
Best regards,
Jerry

Hello friends,
Thanks a lot for your interests on this issue. I update all my findings:
1. issue background: this issue occurs in SAP CRM Channel manageement Solution, software component CRM-CHM-POS.
2. due to some limitations, the table CMSD_CI_HISTORY and history table are not updated in the same LUW. Instead the first one is updated in normal work process while the other is done in update work process. Since I am not the original developer I didn't know the whole complex scenario ( I did see this is done delibrately in note 1764006 - CMS:Sell In Release creating PB with zero available quantity ).
So for the moment we have to accept this design.
3. during our testing ,we ensure COMMIT WORK is always called.
4. So why sometimes the first table update fails, however there is no hint at all for this failure in the system like ST22 and SM21 ?? ( forget SM13, since it is updated in normal work process ).
The root cause is the flaw of SAP code below.
The code has planned to raise exception if insertion failed due to duplicate records to be inserted.
Unfortunately, the fact is if we use "INSERT db FROM TABLE xxx" to insert records into database and some record already exists with the same key, it will result in a termination but SY-SUBRC is STILL 0; Just compare it with single insertion using "INSERT db FROM <work area>", in the same error situation, processing does not terminate, and SY-SUBRC is set to 4.
As a result in this case even the insertion fails, line 29 will never be executed as sy-subrc is always 0. Since the insertion fails and the exception is caught without any notification, so customer sufferred because they do not know what has happened.
Best regards,
Jerry

JTable question regarding Index/ID's from a VB guy

Greets!
So i am coming from VB6 where i use an ActiveX object table to display data from a SQL database table. When populating the table i include the 'ID' field from the database table as a hidden column. So when a user selects a row, i pull the hidden column's ID# and use that to do whatever (bring up another edit form, etc)
So here i am in Java now, i've been playing with jTable for a while now and seem to be getting the hang of the basics, but when i replicated the above scenario, hiding the ID column had weird results (cursor would dissappear when i scroll over with the arrow keys). I also saw another post where another person said that along with populating the jTable i should also have an array that stores the ID that matches the RowIndex from the jTable itself.
This is the table model that i am using:
public class jTableModel extends AbstractTableModel {
 private double xTotal;
 private int colnum;
 private int rownum;
 private String[] colNames;
 private ArrayList<Object[]> ResultSets;
 private Icon zIcon;
 /** Creates a new instance of FoodTableModel */
 public jTableModel(ResultSet rs,frmMain frm) {
 ResultSets=new ArrayList<Object[]>();
 Icon icon1 = new ImageIcon(getClass().getResource("/main/images/bullet_ball_glass_blue.png"));
 Icon icon2 = new ImageIcon(getClass().getResource("/main/images/bullet_ball_glass_red.png"));
 Icon icon3 = new ImageIcon(getClass().getResource("/main/images/bullet_ball_glass_green.png"));
 try{
 while(rs.next()){
 switch (rs.getInt("Type")) {
 case 1: zIcon = icon1; break;
 case 2: zIcon = icon2; break;
 case 3: zIcon = icon3; break;
 Object[] row={zIcon,rs.getString("Name"),rs.getString("Description"),rs.getString("ID")};
 ResultSets.add(row);
 String[] zNames={
 "","Name","Description","ID"
 colNames = zNames;
 colnum=4;
 catch(Exception e){
 System.out.println("(jTableModel: There was an error: " + e);
 public Object getValueAt(int rowindex, int columnindex) {
 Object[] row=ResultSets.get(rowindex);
 return row[columnindex];
 public int getRowCount() {
 return ResultSets.size();
 public int getColumnCount() {
 return colnum;
 @Override
 public String getColumnName(int param) {
 return colNames[param];
 public double getTotal() {
 return xTotal;
 @Override
 public Class getColumnClass(int column) {
 return getValueAt(0, column).getClass();
 }Can anyone give me any tips in this area or point me in the right direction?
Any help would be appreciated.

Question regarding editing functions that are no longer showing up in photoshop

Hi!
I purchased editing functions from a company that allows me to use them within my PhotoShop Elements 10 software. I have been using these functions for quite some time & when I opened my PhotoShop Elements software this morning, all of my editing functions were gone.
The functions are still listed in my folders under my C drive.
Any ideas as to how to get them back into my PhotoShop Elements 10 so that I can use them?
Thanks so much!

Are you sure you're in full edit? Go up to the Edit tab at the upper right of the PSE screen and click where it says Full, to make sure. If that's not the problem, what is missing?

Quick question regarding "put" function on Dreamweaver CS5:

Hey folks:
I hope you'll bear with me. I've inherited a website that uses CS5, and was given instructions...ambiguous at best...about updating the site. In the past, I'm told (using CS3) the process was simply to update a template, save the template on our server, and "put" the page onto our site. I've done the same, and in "previewing" the website, my updates appear correct.
The only problem is the "put" function, or more specifically the lack thereof. Under "site," there is a "put" function, but it is greyed out (and Ctrl + Shift + U is likewise fruitless). Might anyone have a suggestion or two for how to get around this? I'd be hugely appreciative.
Thanks!

In order to upload files to remote server, the site needs to be properly defined in DW CS5.
In CS3, go to Site > Manage Sites and Export the site definition settings .ste file to a safe place on your hard drive. Close CS3.
Open CS5, go to Site > Manage Sites > Import.

Question regarding Dashboard and column prompt

My question regarding Dashboard and column prompt:
1) Dashboard prompt usually work with only for columns which are in subject area. In my report I've created some of the columns which are based on other columns. Like I've daysNumber column that is based on two other columns, as it calculates the difference of two dates. When I create dashboard prompt I can't find this column there. I need to make a prompt on this column.
2)For one of the column I've only two values 1 and 0. When I create prompt for this column, is it possible that in drop down list It shows 'Yes' for 1 and 'No' for 0 and still filter the request??

Hi Toony,...
I think there was another way of doing this...
In the dashboard prompt go to Show option > select SQL Results from dropdown.
There you need to write your Logical SQL like...
SELECT CASE WHEN 1=0 THEN PERIODS.YEAR ELSE difference of date functionality END FROM SubjectAreaName
Here.. Periods.Year is the column which is already exists in repository's presentation layer..
and difference of date functionality is the code or formula of column which you want to show in drop-down...
Also write the CASE WHEN 1=0 THEN PERIODS.YEAR ELSE difference of date functionality END code in fx of that prompt.
I think it helps you in doing this..
Just check and inform me if it works...
Thanks & Regards

Question regarding ONT connection via Ethernet and Cable cards

Hi,
We recently upgraded to Fios Quation 150Mbps/65 plan. We are not getting the advertised speeds (we only get like 5mbps upload) so verizon is sending a tech to switch the ONT connection from coax to ethernet.
I have 2 questions regarding this new setup:
1. If the ONT communicates with the Fios Actiontect router via ethernet instead of coax from now on, How will the set top boxes and Tivo-esque cable card powered device I currently have connected to coax, talk to the verizon system from now on, if coax is taken out of the equation? Will fios signal still flow through the internal coax wiring of the house? And moreover, I was under the impression that coax was the way set top boxes communicated and derived independent ip addresses from the Fios router, for on deman purposes and what not. How will this work from now on?
Quiestion 2.
Right next to the wall where the ONT sits, theres's a basement office where we have a PC that connects to the Fios system via an Actiontect MoCa adapter (ECB2500C) which I assume derives it internet connection from the Fios Actiontec router which sits upstairs in the living room.
Again, with the Coax about to be disabled next Friday in favor of ethernet connection from the ONT, I assume this PC will be left without internet because of the lack of internet signal in the coax? Is this correct?
Question 2.5 If my above assumption is correct, since this office is right on the other side of the wall where the ONT sits outside the house, would it be possible to run an ethernet wire through the wall that connects straight from the ONT to an ethernet switch inside the office, from which I would derive a connection for this basement PC (properly firewalled of course) and then, from said switch, continue running the ethernet wire that would ultimately reach the Actiontec Fios router upstairs from which the rest of the house derives it's internet? and would this setup affect in any way the propper functioning of the cable boxes in the house?
I'd appreciate your input and any help you can provide so I can have a ballpark idea of what to tell the Fios guy to do when he comes on Friday.
Cheers.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

It's not valid to have two devices connected to the ONT, PC and VZ Router. Must be a single device. The ONT locks onto the MAC Address of the first device it sees. Since you have TV you should have the VZ router as the internet facing router.
Other options:
1. Have the VZ Router located next to the PC in the basement and then use Wireless for all other PC's.
2. Have the VZ Router located next to the PC in the basement but run one wire upstairs and connect a switch where other PCs and devices can connect via a wire.
Hope that helps.

I have some questions regarding setting up a software RAID 0 on a Mac Pro

I have some questions regarding setting up a software RAID 0 on a Mac pro (early 2009).
These questions might seem stupid to many of you, but, as my last, in fact my one and only, computer before the Mac Pro was a IICX/4/80 running System 7.5, I am a complete novice regarding this particular matter.
A few days ago I installed a WD3000HLFS VelociRaptor 300GB in bay 1, and moved the original 640GB HD to bay 2. I now have 2 bootable internal drives, and currently I am using the VR300 as my startup disk. Instead of cloning from the original drive, I have reinstalled the Mac OS, and all my applications & software onto the VR300. Everything is backed up onto a WD SE II 2TB external drive, using Time Machine. The original 640GB has an eDrive partition, which was created some time ago using TechTool Pro 5.
The system will be used primarily for photo editing, digital imaging, and to produce colour prints up to A2 size. Some of the image files, from scanned imports of film negatives & transparencies, will be 40MB or larger. Next year I hope to buy a high resolution full frame digital SLR, which will also generate large files.
Currently I am using Apple's bundled iPhoto, Aperture 2, Photoshop Elements 8, Silverfast Ai, ColorMunki Photo, EZcolor and other applications/software. I will also be using Photoshop CS5, when it becomes available, and I will probably change over to Lightroom 3, which is currently in Beta, because I have had problems with Aperture, which, until recent upgrades (HD, RAM & graphics card) to my system, would not even load images for print. All I had was a blank preview page, and a constant, frozen "loading" message - the symbol underneath remained static, instead of revolving!
It is now possible to print images from within Aperture 2, but I am not happy with the colour fidelity, whereas it is possible to produce excellent, natural colour prints using its "minnow" sibling, iPhoto!
My intention is to buy another 3 VR300s to form a 4 drive Raid 0 array for optimum performance, and to store the original 640GB drive as an emergency bootable back-up. I would have ordered the additional VR300s already, but for the fact that there appears to have been a run on them, and currently they are out of stock at all, but the more expensive, UK resellers.
I should be most grateful to receive advice regarding the following questions:
QUESTION 1:
I have had a look at the RAID setting up facility in Disk Utility and it states: "To create a RAID set, drag disks or partitions into the list below".
If I install another 3 VR300s, can I drag all 4 of them into the "list below" box, without any risk of losing everything I have already installed on the existing VR300?
Or would I have to reinstall the OS, applications and software again?
I mention this, because one of the applications, Personal accountz, has a label on its CD wallet stating that the Licence Key can only be used once, and I have already used it when I installed it on the existing VR300.
QUESTION 2:
I understand that the failure of just one drive will result in all the data in a Raid 0 array being lost.
Does this mean that I would not be able to boot up from the 4 drive array in that scenario?
Even so, it would be worth the risk to gain the optimum performance provide by Raid 0 over the other RAID setup options, and, in addition to the SE II, I will probably back up all my image files onto a portable drive as an additional precaution.
QUESTION 3:
Is it possible to create an eDrive partition, using TechTool Pro 5, on the VR300 in bay !?
Or would this not be of any use anyway, in the event of a single drive failure?
QUESTION 4:
Would there be a significant increase in performance using a 4 x VR300 drive RAID 0 array, compared to only 2 or 3 drives?
QUESTION 5:
If I used a 3 x VR300 RAID 0 array, and installed either a cloned VR300 or the original 640GB HD in bay 4, and I left the Startup Disk in System Preferences unlocked, would the system boot up automatically from the 4th. drive in the event of a single drive failure in the 3 drive RAID 0 array which had been selected for startup?
Apologies if these seem stupid questions, but I am trying to determine the best option without foregoing optimum performance.

Well said.
Steps to set up RAID
Setting up a RAID array in Mac OS X is part of the installation process. This procedure assumes that you have already installed Mac OS 10.1 and the hard drive subsystem (two hard drives and a PCI controller card, for example) that RAID will be implemented on. Follow these steps:
1. Open Disk Utility (/Applications/Utilities).
2. When the disks appear in the pane on the left, select the disks you wish to be in the array and drag them to the disk panel.
3. Choose Stripe or Mirror from the RAID Scheme pop-up menu.
4. Name the RAID set.
5. Choose a volume format. The size of the array will be automatically determined based on what you selected.
6. Click Create.
Recovering from a hard drive failure on a mirrored array
1. Open Disk Utility in (/Applications/Utilities).
2. Click the RAID tab. If an issue has occurred, a dialog box will appear that describes it.
3. If an issue with the disk is indicated, click Rebuild.
4. If Rebuild does not work, shut down the computer and replace the damaged hard disk.
5. Repeat steps 1 and 2.
6. Drag the icon of the new disk on top of that of the removed disk.
7. Click Rebuild.
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2559
Drive A + B = VOLUME ONE
Drive C + D = VOLUME TWO
What you put on those volumes is of course up to you and easy to do.
A system really only needs to be backed up "as needed" like before you add or update or install anything.
/Users can be backed up hourly, daily, weekly schedule
Media files as needed.
Things that hurt performance:
Page outs
Spotlight - disable this for boot drive and 'scratch'
SCRATCH: Temporary space; erased between projects and steps.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/StandardRAIDlevels
(normally I'd link to Wikipedia but I can't load right now)
Disk drives are the slowest component, so tackling that has always made sense. Easy way to make a difference. More RAM only if it will be of value and used. Same with more/faster processors, or graphic card.

Some important questions on MDM functionality

Hello All,
I have some basic/imp questions to be understood on MDM 7.1 for a data consolidation project.
1) When importing records in import manager, some of the records are failed with this error message "Import failed. Unable to find value map index". When checked the records in excel source, those records are having one or two fields carrying some square like char, ? and some non readable char (chinese, japanese). SAP is the source and SAP CRM has those characters successfully maintained in the system but MDM has some issue. How do we tackle these in MDM to successfully import those records?
2) How do we archive a repository to create a new one which needs to have empty records in main table but need to carry look up table records?
3) There are some records attached to workflow and when deleted those records from data manager, system throwing error "attached to workflow". Can anyone help me how to remove this attachment and delete those records?
4) The max number of records which can be imported at one shot in import manager is 100K? What happens when we exceed this records let's say 200K? Does the process go infinite loop? Is there a way out to import more than 100K records at one shot?
5) What are the different types of data consolidation projects MDM Gurus encounter? Elaborate please.
6) How many clients use Hierarchy, taxonomy, family tables for repository design? Is it very common or rare? And what would be some of the reference use cases (articles) I could find in sdn blogs for these?
Thx and appreciate for responding to these and also please let me know if any additional articles around MDM which are very popular and must see for a MDM consultant.
-Mike

1) When importing records in import manager, some of the records are failed with this error message "Import failed. Unable to find value map index". When checked the records in excel source, those records are having one or two fields carrying some square like char, ? and some non readable char (chinese, japanese). SAP is the source and SAP CRM has those characters successfully maintained in the system but MDM has some issue. How do we tackle these in MDM to successfully import those records?
Thats a known issue in MDM 5.5 but i am not sure about the current 7.1 SP08 release it might by fixed too, MDM Import manager does not support some special characters,only solution is to identify those records which has special characters in excel and exclude them from the load, may by unmapping the field which has special characters and load the other fields data using the map. and then login to Data manager and copy the text to the corresponding record manually.
2) How do we archive a repository to create a new one which needs to have empty records in main table but need to carry look up table records?
We can not create a repository from an archive with out main table data automatically. you need to clean the main table manually or by using an import map we can delete the data.
Check the below link for deleting data from a main table through import manager:
http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/go/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/d0245870-0adf-2b10-46a8-ca9dcf8e1a4d?QuickLink=index&overridelayout=true
3) There are some records attached to workflow and when deleted those records from data manager, system throwing error "attached to workflow". Can anyone help me how to remove this attachment and delete those records?
Click on workflows tab in data manager and you can find in which workflow the record is and check the history by right clicking on the record. if you have rights to stop the workflow do that , or else login with the workflow owner and stop the workflow so that record will come out of the workflow and will be able to be delete that record.
4) The max number of records which can be imported at one shot in import manager is 100K? What happens when we exceed this records let's say 200K? Does the process go infinite loop? Is there a way out to import more than 100K records at one shot?
Importing 100K data in one shot is not a good idea, and the system will go in infinte loop. you need to split the source files in to multiple chunks. chunk size in your system will be set in MDS.INI file, talk to your MDM Basis guy he will help you in getting details of those..
5) What are the different types of data consolidation projects MDM Gurus encounter? Elaborate please.
Let us know which kind of consolidation project you are working in, Tricks will be based on the particular requirement
6) How many clients use Hierarchy, taxonomy, family tables for repository design? Is it very common or rare? And what would be some of the reference use cases (articles) I could find in sdn blogs for these?
Again for this question it will be based on the requirements... i am sure you will be able to find blogs how to use hierarchies,taxanomies and family tables but not the client names...
Hope i answered your questions.

Questions regarding creation of vendor in different purchase organisation

Hi abap gurus .
i have few questions regarding data transfers .
1) while creating vendor , vendor is specific to company code and vendor can be present in different purchasing organisations within the same company code if the purchasing organisation is present at plant level .my client has vendor in different purchasing org. how the handle the above situatuion .
2) i had few error records while uploading MM01 , how to download error records , i was using lsmw with predefined programmes .
3) For few applications there are no predefined programmes , no i will have to chose either predefined BAPI or IDOCS . which is better to go with . i found that BAPI and IDOCS have same predefined structures , so what is the difference between both of them .

Hi,
1. Create a BDC program with Pur orgn as a Parameter on the selection screen
so run the same BDC program for different Put organisations so that the vendors
are created in different Pur orgns.
2. Check the Action Log in LSMW and see
3.see the doc
BAPI - BAPIs (Business Application Programming Interfaces) are the standard SAP interfaces. They play an important role in the technical integration and in the exchange of business data between SAP components, and between SAP and non-SAP components. BAPIs enable you to integrate these components and are therefore an important part of developing integration scenarios where multiple components are connected to each other, either on a local network or on the Internet.
BAPIs allow integration at the business level, not the technical level. This provides for greater stability of the linkage and independence from the underlying communication technology.
LSMW- No ABAP effort are required for the SAP data migration. However, effort are required to map the data into the structure according to the pre-determined format as specified by the pre-written ABAP upload program of the LSMW.
The Legacy System Migration Workbench (LSMW) is a tool recommended by SAP that you can use to transfer data once only or periodically from legacy systems into an R/3 System.
More and more medium-sized firms are implementing SAP solutions, and many of them have their legacy data in desktop programs. In this case, the data is exported in a format that can be read by PC spreadsheet systems. As a result, the data transfer is mere child's play: Simply enter the field names in the first line of the table, and the LSM Workbench's import routine automatically generates the input file for your conversion program.
The LSM Workbench lets you check the data for migration against the current settings of your customizing. The check is performed after the data migration, but before the update in your database.
So although it was designed for uploading of legacy data it is not restricted to this use.
We use it for mass changes, i.e. uploading new/replacement data and it is great, but there are limits on its functionality, depending on the complexity of the transaction you are trying to replicate.
The SAP transaction code is 'LSMW' for SAP version 4.6x.

Questions regarding Optimizing formulas in IP

Dear all,
This weekend I had a look at the webinar on Tips and Tricks for Implementing and Optimizing Formulas in IP.
Im currently working on an IP-implementation and encounter the following when getting more in-depth.
Id appreciate very much if you could comment on the questions below.
1.) I have a question regarding optimization 3 (slide 43) about Conditions:
If the condition is equal to the filter restriction, then the condition can be removed.
I agree fully on this, but have a question on using the Planning Function (PF) in combination with a query as DataProvider.
In my query I have a filter in the Characteristic restriction.
It contains variables on fiscal year, version. These only allow single value entry.
The DataProvider acts as filter for my PF. So Id suppose I dont need a condition for my PF since it is narrowed down on fiscal year and version by my query.
a.) Question: Is that correct?
I just one to make sure that I dont get to many records for my PF as input. How detrimental for performance is it to use conditions anyway?
2.) I read in training BW370 (IP-training) that a PF is executed for the currently set filter (navigational state) in the query and that characteristics that are used in restricted keyfigures are ignored in the filter.
So, if I use version in the restr. keyfig it will be ignored.
Questions:
a.) Does this mean that the PF is executed for all versions in the system or for the versions that are in the filter of the Characteristic Restrictions and not the currently set filter?
b.) Id suppose the dataset for the PF can never be bigger than the initial dataset that is selected by the query, right?
c.) Is the PF executed anaway against navigational state when I use filtering? If have an example where I filter on field customer thus making my dataset smaller, but executing the PF still takes the same amount of time.
d.) And I also encounter that the PF is executed twice. A popup comes up showing messages regarding the execution. After pressing OK, it seems the PF runs again...
3.) If I use variables in my Planning Function I dont want to fill in the parameter VAR_VALUE with a value. I want to use the variable which is ready for input from the selection screen of the query.
So when I run the PF it should use the BI-variable. Its no problem to customize this in the Modeler. But when I go into the frontend the field VAR_VALUE stays empty and needs a value.
Question:
a.) What do I enter here? For parameter VAR_NAME I use the variable name, but what do I use for parameter VAR_VALUE? Also the variable name?
4.) Question regarding optimization 6 (slide 48) about Formulas on MultiProviders:
'If the formula is using data of only one InfoProvider but is defined on a MultiProvider, the the complete formual should be moved to the single base InfoProvider'.
In our case we have three cubes in the MP, two realtime and one normal one. Right now we have one AggrLevel (AL) on op of the MP.
For one formula I can use one cube so it's better to cretae another AL with the formula based on that cube.
For another formula I need the two realtime cubes. This is interesting regarding the optimization statement.
Question:
a.) Can I use the AL on the MP then or is it better to create a new MP with only these two cubes and create an AL on top of that. And than create the formula on the AL based on the MP with the two cubes?
This makes the architecture more complex.
Thanks a lot in advance for your appreciated answers!
Kind regards, Harjan


Marc,
Some additional questions regarding locking.
I encounter that the dataset that is locked depends on the restrictions made in the 'Characteristic Restrictions'-part of the query.
Restrictions in the 'Default Values'-part are not taken into account. In that case all data records of the characteristic are locked.
Q1: Is that correct?
To give an example: Assume you restrict customer on hierarchy node in Default Values. If you want people to plan concurrently this is not possible since all customers are locked then. When customer restriction is moved to Char Restr the system only locks the specific cutomer hier node and people can plan concurrently.
Q2: What about variables use in restricted keyfigures like variable for fy/period? Is only this fy/period locked then?
Q3: We'd like to lock on a navigational attribute. The nav attr is put as a variable in the filter of the Characteristic Restrictions. Does the system then only lock this selection for the nav.attr? Or do I have to change my locking settings in RSPLSE?
Then question regarding locking of data for functions:
Assume you use the BEx Analyzer and use the query as data_provider_filter for your planning function. You use restricted keyfigures with char Version. First column contains amount for version 1 and second column contains amount for version 2.
In the Char Restrictions you've restricted version to values '1' and '2'.
When executing the inputready query version 1 and 2 are locked. (due to the selection in Char Restr)
But when executing the planning function all versions are locked (*)
Q4: True?
Kind regards, Harjan

Questions regarding new functionalities in EhP 4 - Reporting Financials 2

Dear Forum,
in a project we would like to use some new functionalities from Reporting Financials 2 - ie. Datasource 0FI_AA_20 for Depreciation and Amortization loading to BI for following years as this can not be done by old extractor.
We are know looking for reliable information about impact and changes that are made in ERP if we switch on the functionality Reporting Financials 2 via SFW5? Will old extracors work nevertheless? Will all reports in ERP work without problems? Is there any impact on business processes? Or is this just additional functionality which will not affect current implementation?
Can anybody give information about this?
Thanks, regards
Lars

Question Regarding Mesh with 3702 and non AC ap´s

Hello!
quick question regarding MESH deployments with 2 different sorts of AP´s: AC and non-AC modells: If my 3702i is my root AP´s, and 3602i my MAP - will AC still work in 80Mhz, or will I have to switch to 40mhz (and thus crippling (???) AC performance?)
Not 100% sure on this... I *think* it should still work for the normal 802.11n connection, but I´m not sure if the 80mhz channel width (needed??) for AC, will cause the non-ac 3602i to be stranded?
Thanks alot for your insight!

Currently, my network DHCP server is a software based DHCP server. In reading over your post if I understood correctly it sounds like the managed switch would have its own hardware based DHCP server to assign IP addresses to those clients identified on the "external" VLAN. Did I understand that correctly or did misread something?
DHCP server will be software based, even though you defined it on your switch, it is DHCP service running on its OS.
I am configuring this setup for a small business application and will need to purchase a managed switch with 16 or 24 ports. Do you have any recommendations on a particular managed switch that will handle the VLAN configuration and include POE while keeping costs in mind.
In this forum, most of us discussed about Cisco enterprise grade wireless. Here is 2960X series switch detail, if you are interested

You may need to check the pricing with your Cisco account manager or from a Cisco partner.

Question regarding JRockit

Hi All,
Question regarding JRockit.
I do not know this software nor am I a java developper.
What I would like to do is monitor JVM running inside OC4J in Oracle e-Business Suite.
Could this tool be use to do so?
Also, I think want I really need is JRockit Misson Control. Can I simply install JRMC or do I need to install JRockit then MC?
Thanks to share some lights :)

I am not sure if JRockit is ceritified with OC4J on EBS, but I seriously doubt it.
You could look into a utility called jvisualvm which resides in $JAVA_HOME/bin
