Restore Document Numbering file

Good day all,
When I run the Check Document Numbering exercise you do before the Year end procedure I get an error report (i.e. missing documents or duplicated numbers). I was advised by Srujal Patel on this forum to use the "Restore Numbering File" feature unser the Support Desk in B1. I just wanted to know what effect (if any) this has on the actual document numbering on the existing documents in SAP? Does it change any numbers etc?
Please some advice if you have used this feature?
Kind regards,
Greeshma

HI Rahul,
Thanks for the reply but i was told this will resolve the problem of duplicate or missing numbers in the document numbering series. You get these errors in the form of a report when you run the "Check Document Numbering" utility under "Utilities" in B1.
I just wanted to know if iuse this Restore functionality it wont affect document numbers in the system. E.g. if a customer got Invoice number 545 they will still see that they have that invoice even if the number was duplicated and another customer has the same invoice number?
Kind regards,
Greeshma

Problem with document numbering file

Hi,
i created today a new period 2007 and set the numbering serie. After all I connected the document with the current period 2007. Now when i open for example an invoice i get the system message: "Problem in Datei zur Belegnumerierung. Datei wiederherstellen und bei Wiederholung Kontakt mit Software-Lieferanten aufnehmen."
Sorry but i work with an german language SAP B1 Client.
Thx, for reply

Yes, I just want to cover up all the pages for those particular area of document numbers.
Nothing sensitive about it. I just want to show the correct document numbers on all pages in print out.
So, I wanted to cover up by comments, but commenting on each page will be difficult. So, I wanted to comment the same on all pages.

Document Numbering Options appears when files are opened

Hello,
I am about to got to press with a 240 page catalogue. I consists of about 20 separate files in a book and all pages are automatically numbered. When I open files from the list in the book menu the Document Numbering Options menu often appears, even though I have made no changes to the book or files that would affect numbering.
The auto page numbering button is always checked so I just hit OK and get on with my edits. It does not appear to affect page numbering so seems to be harmless but as I am about to print 10,000 of these catalogues I want to be confident that the pages will be numbered correctly!!
Is there a reason why the numbering menu appears without any apparent need for it?

try resetting preferences by holding down shift-ctrl-alt (win) or shift-cmd-alt (mac) while starting ps. you'll see a confirmation dialog if done correctly.
if that fails uninstall, clean and reinstall per, Use the CC Cleaner Tool to solve installation problems | CC, CS3-CS6

How do I import a numbers file into my pages document?

I have created a Pages document that I could like to import a Numbers file into the document for my presentation...any ideas on how to accomplish this? Help!

Hey amyrivera911fire!
While you cannot import the whole Numbers document into the Pages document, you can copy and paste data from a Numbers file into a Pages file:
Add, copy, and cut objects - Numbers for iCloud beta Help

Also, if you are creating a presentation, you may want to refer to this help document about using Keynote in iWork for iCloud beta:

Doubt about Administration\Utilities\Restore\Restore Numbering File

Hi All,
Is it possible to use this functionnality ?
Somebody tell that this functionnality was forbidden by SAP. If there use it, the support of SAP was not available.
So it is prohibited by SAP or not ???
Thanks.
Michael

HI,
I really do not know.
Sometimes, when webex has done by SAP fixing some problems (eg: primary keys, duplicated entries) the SAP Active support was using this.
Otherwise it is cheking the document numbering for duplicates.
On TEst or DEvelopment systems I think we can use it.

Why do my numbers files not email properly?

Disclaimer: I'm fairly computer savvy and have a good amount of experience in using Numbers (mostly Numbers'09).
I've recently encountered a new problem when emailing numbers (.numbers) files.
They are not coming through correctly.
This may be a "new" issue with the recent upgrade from Numbers'09 but I'm not sure since I have not had the need to send a numbers doc from one person/computer to another since the update to the new version of Numbers.
Here's what happens:
The file sends with no problem. I'm able to receive the file with no problem.
I CANNOT OPEN the numbers document.
When i receive the document it is not coming in the full size. For example: A document that is actually 324K in size is only being received as 8K.
- I am unable to preview the document.
- It appears to have no data
In an attempt to self-solve the problem - I saved the file that I'm attempting to send as a "Numbers 09" version. I was able to send and open this successfully.
The computer that I'm on/sending to/opening in, is running the current version and the SAME version of numbers as the other computer (version 3.2).
I'm quite confused and have not been able to find a solution on my own.
If anyone has run into this, has an idea or has a solution it would be HUGELY appreciated!
Thanks in advance for ANY and ALL feedback and support.

Hi John,
I don't really want to switch my method of filing simply for sharing purposes.
Perhaps a solution for now could be to revert a document to Numbers '09 before emailing?
When Numbers 3.0 was released in November 2013, many people were stunned that a so-called upgrade had lost so many features. But slowly (through this forum working together) it became clear that Apple had provided several safety-nets.
- Numbers 3 did not replace Numbers '09 on any computer. Numbers '09 was moved to a folder named iWork '09 inside the Applications folder. It still works on OS X Mavericks just as it always did on previous versions of OS X.
Numbers 3 did not replace the icon on the Dock. That icon continues to point to Numbers '09.
Wayne Contello has written a User Tip for working with the old and new versions of iWork:
https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-6991
- Documents and templates created in Numbers '09 will carry many of the "lost" features into Numbers 3.
- A document "stolen" by Numbers 3 can not be opened in Numbers '09. Numbers 3 has Menu > File > Export To > Numbers '09... to revert that document. However, reverting a document created in Numbers 3 will not magically install lost Numbers '09 features. They are gone (for now).
- Numbers '09 and Numbers 3 run happily together at the same time. Just be sure which version you use when opening a document. Use Menu > File > Open or Menu > File > Open Recent.
With each update (Numbers 3.0 to 3.01, 3.1 and now 3.2) many features have been restored. They may now live under a different menu, button, or Inspector (Format Panel).
This forum has helped me and other users to find out where our cheese is now:

Can't open Numbers file after moving it back to Mac from Dropbox

Please help! Can't open Numbers file after moving it back to iMac from Dropbox. Says I need the newer version of Numbers each time I tried to open the file. I am 100% sure that I had the newest version. Spoke to the AppleCare guy and after doing the checks he is also sure that I had the latest version of Numbers and AppleCare can't help. He suggested that maybe i should run it on a file repair program...any suggestion?... please help...

I've read reports of people having trouble when storing Numbers 3 documents on Dropbox. I think it's related to the fact that they're not really "files." They're "packages" that look like files. I had thought that Dropbox had cleared this up with their latest update. You should be on Dropbox version 2.4 or later.
If you have Time Machine you may have some luck going back in time and restoring the document from a previous version.
Storing Numbers documents on iCloud works much better, at least for me, and (unlike Dropbox) iCloud facilitates automatic syncing to other Macs and iOS devices signed into the same Apple ID.
Perhaps you could consider keeping Numbers documents in iCloud instead. iCloud is deeply integrated into the app, and now works well.

Multiple Mac accounts edit one numbers file

Can two accounts(login) on the same Macbook access and edit the same Numbers file? If so, how? thanks

Hello
After several attemps, I think that the best soluce is to work with several HD or several partitions on the internl HD.
Store the documents on a volume which is not the startup one and every user will be able to work with them.
If you own a single HD and if the machine is intet inside, you may create a partition on the fly.
If the machine is not intel inside and have a single disk, partitionning will require a preliminary backup.
Then you will have to
start from the install disk,
create the partitions with Disk Utility,
install the system on one partition
restore anything on this partition
When the complementary partition is available, move the documents to share on the alternate partition.
It's a bit boring the first time but after that, it is really comfortable.
I have three physical drives so I didn't took care of this kind of problem: I never store documents on the startup volume

Can't open numbers files

Hello,
I've been using numbers for a week or so, and have made lots of numbers files, but today, none of them will open. I have had some problems with my Imac and have had to reload lots of stuff, and restore from back up etc, could this have cause the problem?
The numbers icon is in my dock, when I try to open the file from finder, it flashes but doesn't open. Sometimes the inspector opens, but not the document. I've also tried open recent from file within numbers and get the same problem.
Any ideas? Thanks Sally

Try to open them from an other user account.
If it behaves well we will know that the oddity is linked to your main user account.
If it's that, try to trash the preferences file :
<startupVolume>:Users:<yourAccount>:Library:Preferences:com.apple.iWork.Numbers. plist

Sample Applescript: scraping values from numbers files into a master file

Hi, I have programming experience in c and other languages, but am new to applescript and so am learning a lot from this forum.
My goal is to make a timesheet system for my Dad (for a bday present) where every time he helps a client, he fills out a newly created numbers file - and after a week or so, he can run a script that scrapes certain values from each numbers file and places it into a master numbers file. Then saving and closing the file.
Vince, it sounds like you've written a script that does this feature of looping through all numbers files in a folder and putting select values from each numbers file into a master numbers file (after clearing the previous values of the master file).
Specifically, I'm looking for a sample script that opens up a numbers file, clears its table, then fills this table by scraping one value from a particular cell in every numbers file in a folder.
If anyone has a similar script they would be willing to post or email to me, for me to use as a foundation and to learn from, I would be very very very grateful. My email is forman.jq at gmail dot com.

I guess that this script may be a good starting point.

When I download a Numbers file from iCloud to my Mac, it isn't the latest version.

Today I worked on a Numbers file on my iPad 2 from 4:40 pm to 6:30 pm. A few hours later, when I tried to download the file from iCloud to my Mac, none of today's changes appeared. When I looked at it again on the iPad, on the main Numbers page where you choose the file you want, it showed a time of 4:43 pm associated with the file. However, when I opened it, the two hours of work was still there even though the time was off. I tried sending the file as an email and when I opened the email attachment on my Mac, all of today's changes were there. So the new changes are captured when emailing a file but not when downloading it.
It almost seems as if the file hasn't made it off the iPad and into iCloud, but I can't find any information on ways to force that or know if it's been done.

Two possible problems. 
1. BlackBoard never supports the latest version of Firefox, for a few reasons. Some schools don't run the latest version of BlackBoard Vista or Campus Edition. Also, BlackBoard upgrades seem to be tied to the "school year" cycle, the changes they make to improve and update their software seem to be rolled out for the fall term so that changes aren't being made during the normal "school year" and possibly causing problems for the schools. That also may be a function of their contract / payment cycles with the schools that use their programs.
http://www2.blackboard.com/tuneup/viewpage?name=tuneup_browser_tuneup_windows_firefox 
Select the link for the version of WebCT Vista or Campus Edition ''(version info is usually at the bottom of each page, in the footer)'' that your school is using, then see which version of Firefox is compatible.
Depending upon which version of WebCT your school is using, you will have to use Firefox 3.6.x, Firefox 3.5.x, or Firefox 3.0.x when accessing the Blackboard site.
My advice is to install the Firefox Portable version that you need for Blackboard on your computer, and use that installation only for Blackboard. Continue to use 4.0.1 for all other web browsing. 
http://portableapps.com/apps/internet/firefox_portable/localization#legacy
2. Firefox uses a Plugin ( you have Office Plugin for Netscape Navigator installed) to open files that aren't "internet files", like word processing documents. 
I can't help you directly with Office, as I use Open Office, but there should be a preference for that Plugin within your Office preferences or options under something like Internet, to have those files '''Display documents in browser'''. 
Or see this to make sure you have your "file type" set correctly.

Can't open a numbers file

Dear Colleages
I have a big problem with a numbers file. I work with the numbers version and have saved a file couple days ago on a usb stick. It file with my password login usw. I have done and used that file for months and I have been using the new numbers version since the launch of the new version. Today when I wanted to open the file to adjust it I get the messge "pw.numbers file can't be opened". I have not used dropbox or cloud for that file.
What can I do.
Thanks for your help

Hello Paul,
Can I ask how you are opening the file? I am having similair issues, although I am preferring iWorks '09 apps still but have both installed, and working on files on a remote server (WebDav), I am getting the similiar errors, but if I copy the file to the local desktop and work with it there, then it's fine. Maybe your attempting to open from the USB stick!? Try locally on the desktop/documents folder?

How can I open a Numbers file to the last cell used on from the previous saving of that file?

In Excel, the .xls file would always open on the the cell location where the file was previously saved. Very nice to have feature when the file is long ,so one does not have to keep scrolling down the page to make the next entry every time the file is opened.
Can Numbers do this? I can't find an option for it.
After opening a file, I must always scroll down to the last entry or where I want to start inputting data. What a pain.
Is there a way to open a numbers file to where one was located when it was previously saved?
Anybody know? Please help.
Thanks

CF,
When I Save a Numbers document with a cell Selected and then close the document, the same cell is still selected when I reopen the document. Isn't that what you are asking for? Furthermore, if I have chosen 100% zoom scale, the selected cell is displayed in the same screen position as when it was last saved. What you may be seeing that you don't care for is that if the zoom is other than 100% the table's position in the display window may be different than at the last Save.

How many sheets can you save in a Numbers file?

Hi folks. I am desperate for help. I have a very important Numbers file that I am working with, where I need to add 289 "sheets" to a single file. Everythign was fine, until I am trying to add my 146th sheet. When I add that next sheet, It will no longer auto save or let me manually save!
I can't find any file size or number of sheet limits.
What can I do? I really must have each sheet on the same file.
Please advise.
Drew

Drew,
According to the following discussion, Yvan Koenig states that you can have 255 Tables per Sheet and 255 Sheets per Document:
https://discussions.apple.com/message/7813797#7813797
In my opinion, anything approaching this order of magnitude belongs in an Office or Office-clone app. Numbers is bound to choke sooner or later with this much data.
If you are certain that you haven't hit one of these limits, there may be other reasons you can't save that we can't guess with the information that you provided.
