Risks of two development groups in the same system

Hi,
I need your help.
I'm looking for a document about the risks having two development groups in the same system.
The point is: An external party will come soon and start the implementation of a mini H2R in the same system as we (the internal team) are working for SD, MM, CO,... As the developments are cross-client, I'm asked to write a document explaining the risks in such cases like:
conflicts: working on the same objects
authorisations: each group should be assigned to different packages
planning: the go-live should be at the same time
transports: there can be conflicts on a transport-level
If you have any documentation that can help me, please let me know.
Kind regards, Gilles.

I hope this is not considered a link farm:
Potential conflicts between already released transports:

CProjects - Partition for two or more groups on the same system

Hi,
Our business requirement for cProjects implementation is such that we have two groups (two companies infact) under an umbrella brand. We have already impemeneted cProjects for one of them. It's time now to have this implemented for the other group.
How can we ascertain that there's a partition in the system by which one group is completely independent of the other? One group should not see the projects/data of the other group and vice versa. Authorizations to projects helps but in a system, a user can fetch (in project search) the names of all projects in the system (irrespective of whether one has authorization). How can we take care of this?
Summary:
We are looking for the ssytem where one group of cProjects users works in the system as if it were the only group working. We intend to ensure the same for the second group as well.
Please suggest.
Regards...

Hi Zhenbo,
You get points for the "very helpful answer". Thanks.
I have not been able to make a complete breakthrough though. Please see if you can help.
There are three steps under "Structural Authorization"
1. Create Authorization Profile: I see this defined in my system (comes from HR)
2. Save user in SAP Memory (IMG has enough documentation on this.
3. Assign Autorization profile to users: Here, I assigned one of the "Auth. Profiles" to the user (myself). At this, I see that the system (cProjects front end) returns an empty list.
This means that the system expects the Business Partners, pertainig to that "Auth. Profile" (which I set in step 3 above). And because it does not find any, it returns an empty list.
What I am not looking for is:
How to bring in the Business Partners (we are using the HR Master Employees) under this "Auth. Profile" such that the system picks them when we do a resource search at cProjects front end?
So... what I am looking for is: relation between this "Auth. Profile" assigned to the user and the Business Partners corrresponding to this "Auth. Profile".
Please see if you can help.

One Listener : two Databases in the same system : is it possible ?

Hi,
I am trying to setup a single listener to listen to two Databases running in the same system. We are experimenting a Network Architecture & this is a part of our experiment to see what happens..( most of the documentation I have read point out that running two DBs on a sing le system isn't a good idea..).
One of the Databases is an Oracle Application Server Infrastructure Metadata Respository ( OraInfra ). The other database has been configured for use with Oracle Content Database ( OraContentDB ) .
The two databases are up & running successfully - however, the problem is with the listener. The two listener.ora files are as follows :-
# listener.ora Network Configuration File: C:\oracle\product\10.2.0\OraContentDB\network\admin\listener.ora
# Generated by Oracle configuration tools.
SID_LIST_LISTENER =
(SID_LIST =
    (SID_DESC =
      (SID_NAME = PLSExtProc)
      (ORACLE_HOME = C:\oracle\product\10.2.0\OraContentDB)
      (PROGRAM = extproc)
LISTENER =
(DESCRIPTION_LIST =
    (DESCRIPTION =
      (ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = IPC)(KEY = EXTPROC1))
      (ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = 152.69.191.100)(PORT = 1522))
)and
# listener.ora Network Configuration File: C:\OraInfra\network\admin\listener.ora
# Generated by Oracle configuration tools.
SID_LIST_LISTENER =
(SID_LIST =
    (SID_DESC =
      (SID_NAME = PLSExtProc)
      (ORACLE_HOME = C:\OraInfra)
      (PROGRAM = extproc)
LISTENER =
(DESCRIPTION_LIST =
    (DESCRIPTION =
      (ADDRESS_LIST =
        (ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = 152.69.191.100)(PORT = 1521))
        (ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = 152.69.191.100)(PORT = 1522))
      (ADDRESS_LIST =
        (ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = IPC)(KEY = EXTPROC))
)However, everytime I try to connect via SQLPLUS, I can only connect via the first Listener. If I try to connect via the second listener, I only get this error :-
SQL> connect scott/tiger@localhost:1522/CONTENTDB
ERROR:
ORA-12541: TNS:no listenerCan anyone shed some light on this ?
Thanks,
Sandeep

Hi,
Thanks to everyone for your time ! Yes, I now have an understanding of the architecture & I am trying to set up my listener...
Paul, I reconfigured my Listener.ora and started it :-
SID_LIST_LISTENER =
(SID_LIST =
    (SID_DESC =
      (SID_NAME = PLSExtProc)
      (ORACLE_HOME = C:\OraInfra)
      (PROGRAM = extproc)
    (SID_DESC =
      (GLOBAL_DBNAME = ORAINFRA.idc.oracle.com)
      (ORACLE_HOME = C:\OraInfra)
      (SID_NAME = ORAINFRA)
    (SID_DESC =
      (GLOBAL_DBNAME = CONTENTDB.idc.oracle.com)
      (ORACLE_HOME = C:\oracle\product\10.2.0\OraContentDB)
      (SID_NAME = CONTENTDB)
LISTENER =
(DESCRIPTION_LIST =
    (DESCRIPTION =
      (ADDRESS_LIST =
        (ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = 152.69.191.100)(PORT = 1521))
      (ADDRESS_LIST =
        (ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = IPC)(KEY = EXTPROC))

Two groups with the same name in File and LDAP realms

Hi,
I configured WLS 6.0 SP1 to use an LDAP caching realm
as default one. In the LDAP server (Netscape Directory)
I have a group called Administrators. There is a group
with the same name in WLS own File Realm. When I click
on the Groups menu item in the administration console
I only get the Administrators group from the File Realm
listed. Is that expected? What will happen if I protect
a resource ti the Administrators group? Which one will
prevail - the one from the LDAP or the one from File
Realm? Or maybe the two will be merged?

Hi
First of all I want to know that where you created your class, In SE24 or in any programm.
if in SE24, then go to se24 open that class go to methods tab and check if that method name accurs at two places, if not, then
click on that method and check the code.
or if in a program.
then you must have defined like
class <class name> definition.
public section
method <method name>
endclass.
class <class name> implementation.
method <method name>
code for that method.
endclass.
It might be possible you have set the implementation part twice for that particular method, So please check and delete one implementation for that method.
Thanks

How to put a few pages together as a panel group in the same screen ?

Dear Friends,
Hello. I am developing the accounting application of Journal Entry module. I have developed 5 pages for a journal entry: Journal header, Journal Line, Journal total, Journal Error and Journal Approval. I want to put 5 pages together as a panel group in the same screen so that users are convenient to use them. The format is as follows:
Header | Lines | Total | Error | Approval
When a user click on Header or Lines or Total or Error or Approval, its related page is displayed below it on the screen. But I don't understand how to put "Header", "Lines", "Total", "Error" and "Approval" together as above format and link them to its related page. Can anybody tell me how to do that ? Thanks.
Lucy

Mike,
It's correct to make 5 pages as a seperate component.
I am developing an accounting system using PeopleTools by myself.
Because you understand PeopleSoft financial application, please tell me the 2 questions as follows:
First, In Journal Line page, when select "edit Journal" and click button "process", the system check the Journal against Budget, if it's Ok, the System assign Journal ID for the Journal and put "valid" into the field of "Budget Status" and "Journal Status" in Total page. If it's not OK, the system send error message into Error page. Do you know how developer do that ?
Second, In Journal Line Page, when select "Submit Journal" and click button "process", the system send the Journal to Approval page for approval. Do you know how developer do that ?

Control two different parameters at the same time

Two motors were connected each other rigidly. One motor controlled torque and the other motor controlled speed. I generated some torque and speed data which represented one cycle of motion from a motor simulation. I like to send these two different data sets (torque and speed) to two different motors at the same time. Torque data sends to one motor and speed data sends to the other motor to see the response of the load profile. In order to do this, I thought about using multithread, but I am not sure it will work for this application. Usually multithreading delay the CPU time so the overall control process might be delayed, right? If you have better idea, please let me know.

If you are using one motion controller to control both motors, you will probably run into problems if you try to use multithreading on the PC. However, you can execute up to 10 programs (threads) at a time, in addition to host communication, using on-board programming. For more information on on-board programming please refer to the following tutorial: Developer Zone Tutorial: On-board Programming in FlexMotion

Two Communication Server in the same Server ?

Hi All,
do you know which are the steps and recommendations to install TWO Communication Station in the same server (Windows 2003) ?
The first one is connect to CRM develop system, and the second one to the CRM Quality System.
Regards,
Davide
[email protected]

Hello Davide,
Note 503340 is not valid for 5.0 and above but its major points are still true:
1. Only one default destination can be setup in the DCOM Connector
which is used by the mobile clients after the installation.
2. Only one default COM4ABAP instance can be setup on the
communication station. This COM4ABAP instance is started
automatically after reboot.
DCOM Connector is now .NET Connector and COM4ABAP is now NET4ABAP in 5.0 and higher.
Clearly, connecting to TWO (or more) CRM system has two parts:
a.) For Data Transfer with Conntrans. You can configure A SINGLE COMMSTATION INSTANCE to communicate with MULTIPLE destinations by just adding destinations in the QmtCnfg tool on the CommStation. You can then specify this Commstation and the destination value as you created in the QmtConfg tool on the client and data transfer will work.
b.) For changing passwords of Employees in Tx: SMOEAC. This uses the NET4ABAP service running on the CommStation which is called by the CRM Server. There can be ONLY ONE NET4ABAP service running on a CommStation and this connects to ONLY ONE CRM SYSTEM at a time. Hence it is not possible for one NET4ABAP service to serve multiple CRM systems.
If you need both a and b, it is not possible. If you need only a, it is possible and detailed above and also in the CommStation installation guide.
I also believe you have a message running with SAP Support on this same issue and you would have gotten the same details from them.

Table V_T500P- define different country grouping to the same company code

Hello Gurus,
When I try to update table V_T500P with different country grouping to two personnel areas that have same company code I get the following message:
"The country grpg of company code xxx has been changed. This company code is used in other pers. areas. The country grouping will also be changed. Make changes?"
How can I define two different countries to the same company code in this table?
For example-
Personnel Area DE09 (Germany), Company Code 0234 (KPG EAMER)- country grouping 01
Personnel Area DK05 (Denmark), Company Code 0234 (KPG EAMER)- country grouping 09
when I try to change the country grouping of one of the countries it changes them both with the massage I wrote above.
Thanks for your help,
Ronit.

Thanks for your answer!
Actually, I know that there is a way because the initial definition in my system was: different country groupings to different company code (can I attach here a screen shot?)
But when I try to change one of the country grouping it chnages all the countries from the same company code.
Example:
In the begining it was:
Pers. Area SE01 Company code 0234, country grouping 06
Pers. Area IL03 Company code 0234, country grouping IL
Pers. Area DE03 Company code 0234, country grouping 01
Now if I'm trying to chage the country grouping of Pers. Area IL03 from IL to 05 (for example), it changes everything. I know there is a way to change it without changing them all. I just don't know what is the way...
I will appriciate if someone can help!
Thanks,
Ronit.

Share iTunes purchases between two user accounts on the same Mac?

I have a Macbook Pro, for my bride and I, and a Macbook, for our kids. Both Macs are authorized on my iTunes account.
So, how can I share an iTunes Store purchased song on my account with my wife's? I understand how to turn on sharing and she can see my songs in iTunes on her account, but she cannot synch them to her iPod.
Now, I'm allowed to authorize an iTunes account on up to five Macs. I have two. But I have four accounts. Either way, I won't be exceeding five copies, but can't find a way to get a song I bought in my iTunes to my wife's iPod.
We use the same iTunes account but don't want to have to buy things twice to get them on her iPod. Just seems weird that I could put it on five machines but not two user accounts on the same one.

On my Mac Pro I moved the entire library to "Macintosh HD/Shared/iTunes". Changed the Folder location in iTunes Preferences->Advanced->General to point to that location. Then in each user change the Music/iTunes folder to be an alias or link pointing to the Shared/iTunes folder. You will likely need to change the permissions on that folder to give everyone the ability to read and write. Do that via "Get Info" on the iTunes folder using Finder. I'd suggest backing everything up before you do this.

Two different Resultsets for the same query (running at the same time)

I am using the Thin Driver for Oracle 8.1.6. I am invoking queries in multithreading mode (each thread has his own connection to the oracle DB). If i am invoking the same SQL-Statement in two different threads nearly at the same time, only the ResultSet of the first query is complete. The ResultSet of the second query is not complete (the number of tuples differs each time I run the program). Principally the two ResultSets should be the same (no changes are done at the same time in the DB), but they are not.
Anybody knows this problem and knows how to solve it? Principally read accesses on DBs should not make such trouble ...
I hope anybody can help me.

Pranav,
As this BADI is having option checked 'Multiple use'. You can implement multiple implementations.
You need not to deactivate the existing implementation.

I am trying to store music for two different iPods on the same computer, against two different Apple IDs. When I try and download content from the Cloud I get an error message?

I am trying to store music for two different iPods on the same Windows 8 computer, and when I try and download content from the Cloud I get an error message. Is it possible to have two different Apple IDs on the same computer?

Unfortunately you've discovered too late how important it is to maintain an up-to-date backup of your iTunes library (and all other data of value). You could, before wiping the drive, have considered making use of a commercial data recovery service that could (albeit at considerable cost) have extracted your library from the hard disk, even if virus infected.
In the absence of that option, you will need to restore the content of your library from its original sources:
Depending on your location, you may be able to re-download any iTunes Store purchases that are still available on the Store
Likewise, most digital purchases from Amazon (including auto-rip copies of purchased CDs) should be available from the Amazon Cloud and via the Amazon Music application - the same may be true of other commercial sources for digital downloads
Content imported from your CDs will have to imported again
The specific situation that you describe regarding the music imported from your friend's external HDD suggests that either the source is badly organized and/or originates from a source other than iTunes (other media players may use alternative tags for information like artist, title, album, etc. that are not wholly consistent with how iTunes handle these). Without details of the issues you're seeing it is difficult to suggest a remedy other than going through the media album-by-album, track-by-track, and correcting the inconsistencies.
In the absence of a backup or access to the original library data there is no option other than painstakingly recreating your library as described above. As you do so, you'll now realize how important creating and maintaining backups are - in my case I have at all times three separate duplicates of my library, in two different locations, where none is ever more than a week old compared to the content of my master library.

Two processes running at the same time in Lookout

I have installed Lookout 5.0 with 200 I/O Points onto our server computer. The application of motion control is next to the 200 I/O points through OPC PMAC server/client. Now I would like to have a second process in the same server for trouble shooting and testing without stopping the motion control process. However, this second testing process could have also many I/O points through Serial and USB ports. I assume that the total amount of I/O points of both processes will be greater than 200.I prefer to have independent processes for control and testing because access levels. Can I have these two processes running at the same time when needed?

Hi,
From your description you are using a third party OPC server for the motion application. You could have a second Lookout process communicating with the same OPC server with no problems, as long as you do not exceed the number of I/O points your license supports.
Also, the process you are using for testing obviously could not overwrite datamembers (or registers if you will) that would interfere in the overall application, in other words you can test your application as long as you keep the coherency of the test.
So the answer would be, yes it is possible, however you are still limited to the number of I/O's your license supports... You may even consider upgrade the number of I/O's you have in your license.

It should work in any version of Java as long as the server socket factories are null or equal according to Object.equals() or its override in the SSF.equals() method if any. Which needs to be present and needs to take the form:
public boolean equals(Object object)
return object != null && object.getClass() == this.getClass();
}with further tests if the server socket factories have additional state.

How can I interact between two different frames in the same indesign template as well as from one template to another.

I am looking for the best way (or any way) to interact between two different frames in the same indesign template as well as from one template to another. It's for a DPS app which needs to carry some button initiated data from one page to another and then present it in a table.

There is no simple way to do it, as itunes wont let you use it on another computer without wiping the contents first.
However if you really want to transfer songs to another computer then you could try this;
* make sure that your ipod is accessible as a disk drive (ipod options)
* when you plug your ipod into the computer you want to transfer to make sure you select "no" or "cancel" when it asks to wipe the contents. Leave the ipod connected and quit from itunes.
* go to "my computer" and access the ipod directly. You probably have to select "view hidden files" from windows. You will see a lot of folders with odd names like ZX838aff with similar named files inside.
* copy these files to a folder on your computers hardrive. Now remove the ipod and start itunes.
* import the files from the folder you made in the last step.
* Now your music is on itunes, but with unrecogisable names.
This is the only way I have found to do it, but there may be another way, say with an application to do the hard work for you.

Can you have two itunes accounts on the same computer?

Can you have two itunes accounts on the same computer and if so how do you access them without syncing each others music?

Yes. Use separate iTunes libraries(launch iTunes with the Shift(Windows) or Option(Mac OS X) key held down as needed), or different user accounts on the computer.
