Regarding Customers numbers

Hello all,
Are the customer and vendor numbers same in all companies. For example say Circuit City's customer number in Sharp electronics SAP R/3 system is 74023 . Will the customer number of Circuit city be the same i.e. 74023 in Sony electronics SAP system too. My friend told me thats how it is and there is a specific company which assigns the master data numbers.

Hi,
NOPE. Not at all. Every business organization (different company...not company code) has their own system and where is the question of maintaining the same vendor and customer numbers....You need not listen to learn about this from anybody...take yourself as an example. You will receive bills from gas/electricity/telephone dept,/ home appliances companies etc....do you see your account number unique on any or all of these bills? no way....so, just ignore looking at others as experts on everything....:-)

Need some help regarding PO numbering

This is for a Real Estate Company. Here each Project is Inventory Org.
Presently we are following automatic numbering for purchase orders.
However here client is insisting for Purchase order numbering to be automatic- alpha numeric and again the crucial requirement is that it should be inventory organization(project) wise i.e. different alphanumeric numbering sequence for each inventory org.
Eg: If we have two inventory orgs (say A, B) , then Purchase orders for A should follow numbering like A-001,A-002.......
Similarly for inventory org B, it should be B-001,B-002....
Can anyone suggest is there any way to achieve this..
Ram

So I have seen this done, but none of it was standard. You would leave your normal numbering system in place, but then have a SQL guy create a custom script to upload PO directly into your system. Typically with these loaders you can script in the use of any PO numbering scheme that you designate. If you migrated Oracle from a previous system you may have some of these tools especially if you had your historical data uploaded prior to going live. We used to call these PO Loaders, but the function operates in a similar fashion to a requisition loader which takes a flat file and uploads it directly into the system.

Need Help Regarding Document Numbering

We have created new menu in Purchase A/R and I need to add the same to Document Numbering Screen. How to add the same? We want to know which all tables need to be modified?
Jayanth

Hi Jayanth,
I strongly recommend not to use 'UPDATE' or 'INSERT' clause directly to the system table. (I'm sorry to say exactly same as SAP technicians, but this is the only way I can say).
the tables I know are ONNM, NNM1.
Research it carefully, and try that.
And please remember, I recommend not to do that.
Hope this useful.

Activities in Finance that involves moving of customer numbers

Hi,
I would like to know what are the activities in SAP that are involved with transferring of customers numbers ?

Why can't I open just one of my numbers files?

Hello,
I am unable to open a rather important numbers file on my macbook pro. I can open all other numbers files but when I double click this one, it sort of "shines" as if its going to open then nothing happens. The data in it is really important and I can't get to it. I also have set up my time machine (as I don't know how) and wondered if anyone has any suggestions?
Many Thanks

If you meant that you have not set up your time machine, the following may help with that: Mac Basics: Time Machine backs up your Mac - Apple Support
Regarding the Numbers file -- this is a long shot, but rather than double-clicking on it you might try first starting Numbers and then use its File menu Open command and see if that will open the file.

How do I insert a row in Numbers?

I see no function for the insertion of a row or column available. Is it even possible?

"There's a side tab to the box when you click on it. I'm very new."
It's called the Row Reference Tab for that row.
Here are two other ways to insert a row into a Numbers table:
Click any cell to select it. Go Table (menu) > Insert Row Above toinsert a row above the selected cell, or Go Table > Insert Row Below to insert a row below the selected cell.
Click any cell to select it. Press option-up arrow OR option-down arrow to insert a row above or below the selected cell.
To insert multiple rows, use a variation of the first method:
Select a column of as many cells as you wish to add rows. Go Table > Insert Rows Above (or Below).
I'll second Jerry's remarks regarding the Numbers '09 User Guide.

How does Oracle JDBC thin driver handle numbers via getString?

Hi,
I have a query regarding how numbers are handled by the oracle jdbc thin driver. The issue I am facing is with regards to the decimal separator (. is en_US and , in pt_BR)
e.g. Consider the below code,
Connection conn = DriverManager.getConnection(...);
Statement stmt = conn.createStatement();
ResultSet rset = stmt.executeQuery("select value from test_table1");
while (rset.next())
System.out.println (rset.getString(1));
test_table1 has a single column of sql type 'number' with a single row having value "123.45"
NLS_NUMERIC_CHARACTERS = ".,"
Database version = 10.2.0.2.0
There is a (generic) method to which a ResultSet is passed and it returns a dictionary of key value pairs. All column values from the ResultSet are retrieved using getString method of ResultSet.
My question is whether the jdbc driver formats numbers (based on the locale) before returning it as a string as part of the getString method?
e.g.
java -Duser.language=pt -Duser.region=BR TestJDBC
prints "123.45" and not "124,45"
Is there a reason why getString always retrieves a number column value with '.' as the decimal separator?
To help make things a bit more clear, all the column values retrieved are then converted into an XML (and hence the conversion to string)
At present, the only way I see out of this is to handle numbers differently.
i.e. something similar to,
if (resultsetmetadata.getcolumntype .. = double OR float OR int OR long.. )
NumberFormat.getInstance().format(rset.getDouble(1));
Is there a better way to resolve this issue?
Thanks,
Binoy

user565580,
As has been already stated, Oracle does not have data-types INTEGER or SMALLINT, only NUMBER.
So even though Oracle lets you write INTEGER, it really creates a NUMBER.
(As Joe mentioned.)
Other databases don't have a NUMBER data-type, they have INTEGER, SMALLINT, etc.
Originally, Oracle database only had three data-types:
CHAR
DATE
NUMBER
If you're going to be working with Oracle database, then you need to adapt yourself to its limitations.
So you'll probably need to define NUMBER data-types using scale and precision.
(As Kuassi mentioned.)
Good Luck,
Avi.

Word Mail Merge does not accurately import a Text field in Excel with more than 15 numbers

Hi, I've looked through some of the discussions regarding importing numbers from excel into word mail merge. I'm having a problem. In Excel I have a column that includes numbers with more than 15 digits. In Excel, I have made this column a text format, so
now in Excel those long numbers show up correctly. However, when doing a mail merge in Word, again the numbers past 14 digits change to zeros. I've read many help articles about this but am still not finding a solution. I even tried going the DDE route and
that didn't do it either. I checked out this answer: http://www.techsupportforum.com/forums/f57/mail-merge-data-corruption-429351.html which was the most helpful, but again, DDE seemed to work for this person but not for me. I hope someone can offer a solution.
I was hoping that I could do a picture switch, but that does not seem to be an option for this particular problem. I don't know why importing it in DDE format did not solve the problem. Thanks for any help!

Wow! After all my searching and just after posting this I figured out the solution! I originally had { MERGEFIELD Field_Name \# # } But then I just removed everything after the field name, as is normal for any other text field, so not indicating it was
a number, and now it shows up correctly even if the number (from a Text formatted field in Excel) is longer than 15 digits. Hope this helps anyone else who has a problem. I did not use DDE to solve this problem.

BI Publisher Section Re-numbering problem

I am trying to use BI Publisher add in for MS Word 2010 to create a template for a document which contains sections, headers and footers, page numbering with re-numbering within sections, table of contents, etc. It can be rendered in either .DOC or .PDF format, whichever works.
Two problems I can't get around.
Re-numbering within each section - although I can restart the numbering on a section break and it looks OK in the RTF, when I preview it with BI Publisher the renumbering fails - it fails if I restart numbering at 1, but curiously works if I restart numbering at 2.
I have a table of contents which works OK in the RTF, but when I preview it as RTF/DOC it fails, when I preview as PDF it works OK. I have therefore been using the PDF option, but would prefer to use the RTF/DOC option.
If anyone has come across this problem I would like to know. If anyone has a solution, even better. Grateful for any help.

Thanks for the RTF/DOC suggestion, unfortunately, when viewing using the BI Publisher preview facility, the table of contents is no longer a table of contents and has been rendered as straight text, so updating it (using F9 or other) is not possible, recreating it would be necessary. However, as it works in PDF I can probably stick with that.
Also regarding page numbering, unfortunately I am unable to pass you the document to try out. In essence, however, I have 3 sections set up, and in each one I want to restart numbering at 1, i.e.
first section - page 1, 2,...<number of pages in section 1>
second section - Annex A1, A2,...A<number of pages in section 2>
third section - Annex B1, B2,...B<number of pages in section 3>
Even trying this with a simple test document works ok when setting it up in RTF, but BI Publisher preview, in either PDF or RTF/DOC, reverts to numbering from page 1 upwards. Perhaps this is not supported in BI Publisher?

Query regarding organization

Hi ,
I am creating an application , where there my be quite a few customers and each customer has a set of users.I am defining each customer as an organization.The customer has lots of details such as building number , number of employees etc.How can I add these attributes to a organization.I need to store and fetch these info regarding customers and I guess I need to store these are additional attributes to organization.Is there any way to create additional attributes to organization or is there any other way out?
Thanks for you time!
Regards,
Vivek

Hi Shabbir,
Oil Industry will be one Client and under Oil Industry client you can create company codes for Oil1, Oil2, Oil3 etc...
Because each company has its own balance sheet and loss / profit account, so you need to maintaine separate company code for each company Oil1, Oil2, Oil3 etc...
For Example: L&T is a client, under L&T client yo have different verticle companies like Construction, manufacturing, Information Technology etc... each verticle companies under client L&T will have different company code because each company maintaine separate balance sheet profit / loss account.

Need help with skype numbers....urgent please!

Question regarding skype numbers..... So i plan to buy hongkong skype number,......say for example + 852 8192 6362, and if im right , i can receive the calls on my PC /desktop, etc. But what about if im traveling , for few days to mainland china or london , will my family still be able to call the same number with appropriate county code, n will i continue to recive calls on my PC. { *Example calling me in china +8621 8192 6362 } In short, can my family call my anywhere in the world by using proper country codes, or is skype number limited to hongkong only, I travel alot, and cant change numbers frequently. Thanks....

Hi, ajamal786, and welcome to the Community,
Yes, your one Skype Number travels with your account regardless of wherever you are. Such is the beauty of a Skype Number: people can call you on the number you set up, which in theory would be a local call to them depending upon the availability of numbers from which you can choose (my Skype Number exchange is a few townships away, but still a local call), and reach you on Skype.
So, no need to change a Skype Number.

Alfa Numeric document numbers

Hi All
The client wants to use Alfa numeric doc number. eg AK1000.
The system does not allow above. Does any one know a work around for this.
The client wants to maintain this number in the system as well as use it as the invoice number when printing
Thank you
Regards
Apsara

Document numbers are alwyas saved in SAP as numeric fields. You can set prefix in document numbering series to show it as alphanumeric on reports such as PLD or crystal.
or as a work arround if you want to have it on document , create UDF (alphanumeric type) on maketing document header level, apply FMS , concatenate aphnanumeric text with document number.
hope this will help.
Thanks,

Installing InDesign upgrade versions and serial numbers on new computer

I have a brand new iMac with a clean install of Yosemite. I want to install several versions of InDesign in order to be able to work in whatever version my clients use.
I am planning to install CS5, CS5.5, and CS6. I understand the need to install the oldest version first and to proceed upward, and that I will need to install Java beforehand for the earlier versions.
My question is regarding serial numbers to activate these installs. I have used InDesign since the day it came out (InDesign version 1 - full purchase). All the versions since have been upgrades. So, when I go to start CS5, what serial will it want? My previous CS4 or the CS5 one, and so on?
I'm trying to avoid installation failures where I have to run cleaner and reinstall -- I want to do it correctly from the start. I am confused about whether the upgrade versions will be looking for the original full purchase, which is ancient and not on the computer.

First off, anything earlier than CS6 is unsupported. That out of the way.
If CS5 was an upgrade, you’ll need its serial as well as the serial of the qualifying product. You’ll be prompted for the qualifying product after you enter the serial for CS5.
Lather…rinse…repeat for 5.5 and 6 but those installers should see the earlier one that’s been installed.
