Rock classification

I'm an older (53) rock fan...I joined my first band in 1966. Does anybody know how I can isolate classic rock music or, at least rock music that sounds like classic rock?
My problem with iTunes classifications is that what they call "rock" always seems to be "metal" or "punk", when I want rock that might actually have some good vocals or musicianship, instead of "mix for loud".
Any ideas on how I can search for classic rock but not get metal and punk?
iMac G5 Mac OS X (10.4.6)

I figured it out myself; I didn't realize the "browse" feature had so many subclassifications.
(Now if I could figure out how to remove my question.) :-D

How Rock Guitar Legend Slash Hopes to Hack Music Discovery Apps

Editor's Note: What do you guys think about the concept of apps helping artists with music discovery? Does it have legs? Is it monetizeable? Read and then let us know your thoughts on this thread.--ks
http://thenextweb.com/insider/2014/03/10/sxslashathon-rock-legend-slash-hopes-hack-music-discovery (via TheNextWeb.com)
Glance at this year’s SXSW schedule and “Slashathon” might sound like an all-night 80s horror flick screening. In reality, the title is fairly literal: rock guitarist Slash is hosting an artist-focused hackathon on Wednesday with the hopes of drawing in crowds at the perfect mid-point between SXSW’s Interactive and Music sessions.
“It was an idea that came up when we were brainstorming the launch of our new record,” Slash, also uncommonly known as Saul Hudson, tells The Next Web in a phone interview. “I’m sure there are a lot of people out there who don’t have a platform to talk about new tech ideas for music, so we hope that the event helps inspire software developers to create something unique in the spur of the moment.”
Despite having been involved in several apps and video games, Slash says he’s not a particularly techie person, and is mostly interested in music recording apps that aid artists on the go. “I travel a lot, so tuner apps or things that enhance sound recordings are what I’m most interested in.”
A fan of Spotify and Pandora, the guitarist says music streaming apps are great for artists to both discover new music and share with fans, and he hopes to see more apps devoted to helping artists gain exposure.
“This is what people do now: they go to their computers and smartphones and find new music, shows, and artists,” Slash says. “Spotify and Pandora have definitely helped soften the blow on musical piracy… making records is a huge business now, and these apps help artists feel like they’re not doing it for nothing.”
While he doesn’t intend for the Slashathon to necessarily “solve” problems — as most startups tend to focus on — he would like to see music discovery become more catered to recording artists, not just consumers.
“I’d like to see the trend continue on apps that help artists get the word out about their new records and local shows,” he says.
It’s not surprising that a musician like Slash is keen on discovering new music. Thanks to Guitar Hero’s repopularization of “Sweet Child O’ Mine,” it’s hard to escape a dive bar or TV commercial without the familiar rock rhythms, even for Slash himself.
But of course, he’s grateful for the multi-generational love that’s passed along, decades after the song emerged.
“I was definitely more sick of it when we first wrote, recorded, and played it,” Slash says. “But over the years… it’s one of those things where you have to appreciate that a lot of people still like it.”
The SXSW Slashathon takes place at Capital Factory, and begins at 9 AM on March 12.

No key field found for creation of DataSource - Classification Datasource

Hello,
While trying to create a clasiffication datasource based on 0PLANT_ATTR, when i assign a characteristic and push the DataSource button, i get the following message:
No key field found for creation of DataSource
Diagnosis
During generation of a classification or configuration DataSource, only those key fields for the object table (field "Obj.Tabelle") that are already present in the basis DataSource transferred to the extract structure. This is the case when none of the key fields of the object table were found in the structure of the basis DataSource.
System response
A DataSource cannot be created without key fields. The action was cancelled.
Procedure
Check whether you have selected the correct basis DataSource and object table. For more information, please see SAP Note 569849.
Do you know what can be the problem?
Thank you and regards

Hi Alberto,
plants are a special case. The key which is used for the classification
of plants (object type BETR) is not the same as the key which is used in
datasource 0PLANT_ATTR.
BETR has key LOCNR (Site). That's a customer related to a plant. The
customer number will be extracted in field LOCNR.
0PLANT_ATTR extracts the plant in its key field WERKS.
Transaction CTBW and the generic extraction program for classifications
don't know the relationship between LOCNR and WERKS. So they cannot map
them.
I do recommend a solution which would add the mapping between
LOCNR and WERKS:
1. Create please the classification datasource as intended, but use
datasource 0RT_LOC_MGR_ATTR as basis datasource. It's the only
datasource of the content where LOCNR is a key field. So
0RT_LOC_MGR_ATTR is used as a dummy here, to allow transaction CTBW to
create the classification datasource. It's not necessary to extract
data with datasource 0RT_LOC_MGR_ATTR.
2. Extend please the extract structure of the created classification
datasource. Add please field WERKS using component type WERKS_D. Make
this field visible.
3. Fill field WERKS in the extractor user exit EXIT_SAPLRSAP_002. WERKS
can be read from table KNA1 by using the customer number extracted to
LOCNR to select on field KNA1-KUNNR.
4. Transaction CTBW_META on the BW system isn't able to append the
characteristics from the classification datasource to infosource
0PLANT, because the keys are different. So create please a new info
source with CTBW_META. This allows CTBW_META to create the info objects
for the characteristics used in the classification datasource.
5. Add please the characteristics used in the classification datasource
to infosource 0PLANT manually. You will find the info object names of
the characteristics by looking up the characteristic datasources which
are assigned to the classification datasource in transaction CTBW. From
these names you can derive the info object names:
1CL_A... -> C_A...
6. Disconnect the infosource which has been created with CTBW_META from
the classification datasource.
7. Connect please the classification datasource to infosource 0PLANT
Use following info object:
info object   field
0PLANT       WERKS
The info object names for the characteristics are explained in step 5.
8. Add an infopackage to infosource 0PLANT for the classification
datasource.
Now the extraction of classifications of sites should work.
Best regards,
Rolf
P.S. I saw the system messed it up and doesn't display any new and empty lines. Sorry, I hope you still can read it.

Copy of Material Master charac. values to the batch classif. in GR for PO

Dear gurus,
Could you please help me with the following issue. I have a material managed in batches, and it has a classification type 023 in material master. I fill one chaacteristic of this classification with some value. Now I want this value to be copied to the batch classification during the creation of new batch while making GR to production order.
Is it possible?

Hi Nikolaj,
What I am understand your requirement is like,
You want to fetch the value of Characteristic maintain in Batch class in Material master to the Batches, correct?
But my Friend if you maintain value of characteristic in Batch Class in material master then it will works as a validation.
For Example,
Suppose your Characteristic is Colour and in Material Master Batch classification view you have maintain value as Red.Then system will not allow you any other colour in Batches.You will find that value in Drop Down list.
Regards,
Dhaval

Batch managment with classification

Hi,
I have material with batch and classification. Material master have base unit KG, but I need second unit PC or M and other parameters of material. (coefficient between KG and PC is not constant).
I give to classification attributes fields: quantity, length. width, ...
In goods receipt I input batch with classification (quantity, length. width, ...)
Where can I see batch balance with classification ?
Is possible recalculate attribute of classification quantity after goods issue or how I can manage balance of quantity?
thank
beto

Hi,
Once you fix the classification, i don't think you can recalculate the classification, what do you mean by batch balance?

Classification of IFLOT & EQUI via CLB2 / CLB1

Hi all,
I've used CLB2 to mass populate & update classifications assigned to functional locations & equipments. This has worked well to date.
However, I am now attempting to improve processing performance. While reviewing available functionality, I noted the availability of CLB1 to generate batch input sessions from the logical filename provided & supports essentially the same input file.
Experimentation proves that this transaction is essentially completely unsuitable for general use any longer since it applies the batch input sessions against transactions CL20 & CL22 which are no longer used.
Assuming I have 800,000 updates to apply, is there a standard mechanism other than CLB2, where I configure additional logical filenames to allow streaming the updates in the background.
regards
Daniel

Hi Daniel,
Asumming you are trying to update classification data for IS-U type functional locations and devices, you can update classification data for these using ISMW - migration object OBJCLASS. Although I think this object would work for non-ISU FLs and Equipments too.
Wherein, below fields can be defaulted depending if you are updating classification for FL or DEVICES.
HEADER-OBJECT_TYPE = "IFLOT" or "EQUI".
DATA-FIELD = TPLNR or EQUNR
Other structures and fields are self explanatory. But feel free to ask follow up clarification.
ALternately, LSMW also provides for a standard BI object (0130 classification) that may be utilized as well. Although I have not used LSMW object but have used the ISMW OBJCLASS.
Hope this helps.

Automatic batch classification with procedure on goods receipt does not wor

Hi,
I have a material with batch classification.
The material has two characteristics.
One is a number called VALUE.
The other is also a number (called CONVERSION) and shall be deived from the first.
A procedure is created and assigned to the second characteristic.
$SET_DEFAULT ($SELF, CONVERSION , $SELF.VALUE / 6000)
When I post a goods receive (movement Type 501) the characteristics can be filled . The field VALUE is set with 12000.
I was expecting the characteristic CONVERSION to be calculated as '2' and filled by the procedure.
This is not the case.
If however, I try to fill it manually, the system accepts only the calculated value '2'. Otherwise an error is shown.
How can I force the system to calculate and fill the second characteristic when insserting a value in the first ?
Thanks for any help.

Hi Marcus,
i have the same problem with movement type 101.
How did you solve this issue?
Can you help me.
Thank you.

Batch characteristic in classification not updating

Hello expert,
I have created classification for batch (class type 023) with characteristic MCH1 -LWEDT to record last GR date. Batch number has to be entered manually during GR posting. And i expect that during GR posting, characteristic value of GR date will be automatically updated in the classification but i've found that it is blank.
My query is, do GR date in characteristic value of batch class can be automatically updated during GR posting?
If it yes, what's wrong with my class? and how to make it works as expected?
Really appreciate your help.
Thank you in advance

Hi Rahul,
Just to make sure. Have you created a characteristic named MCH1-LWEDT or have you actually linked your characteristic to the field MCH1-LWEDT in the "Addtnl Data" tab in CT04?

Values not getting updated in Classification tab by BAPI_BATCH_SAVE_REPLICA

Hello Experts ,
I am currently facinmg problem with value updation in Classification Tab for Batch Master. To create the classification I have marked BATCHCONTROLFIELDS-DOCLASSIFY = 'X' and to pass values to classification I have done the below coding.
wa_classvaluationschar-value_char = wa_itab-value1.
APPEND wa_classvaluationschar TO it_classvaluationschar.
wa_classvaluationsnum-value_from = wa_itab-value1.
wa_classvaluationsnum-unit_from = wa_itab-meins.
APPEND wa_classvaluationsnum TO it_classvaluationsnum.
Finally called the FM 'BAPI_BATCH_SAVE_REPLICA'. But , inspite of this I am not able to see values in the created Batch. Please advice on the same.
Thanks
-Trishna.

Hi Trishna,
You need to update below mentioned fields to udpate that.
OBJECTKEY = concatenate (Internal Material number & plant & batch number)
OBJECTTABLE = MCHA
in both the structures CLASSALLOCATIONS and CLASSVALUATIONSCHAR. It will udpate.
Cheers,
Luri

Vendor Report without classification.

Hi Experts,
My client wants a report to display all those vendors for whom the classification data is not maintained.
Please help..
Thanks in advance

I dont know a transaction that shows it directly.
I would execute CL30N to get a list of all vendor that have a class assignment.
then I would download all vendor numbers from table LFA1
And then I would compare both e.g. in MS ACCESS or in Excel with VLOOKUP to see which vendor is without classification.
If recurring requirement, then a small ABAP report would do the job.

Report s_alr_87012178 :customer open items - Customer classification

Hi all. The problem concerns the report s_alr_87012178 which is used to display customer open items.I am selecting 'Customer classification' from the dynamic selections and filling it with a value e.g C.
I have assigned risk class A for my customer in XD02 : Marketing tab. When i am running the report, it is displaying the customer even though i have filled in a different customer classification value.
Thanks for input.

Hi Antish,
Were you able to resolve this? If so, could you let me know what was done. I have a similar issue with Customer Classification on FBL5N.
Thanks,
