RU255 : No incorrect confirmations were founds

Dear Experts,
When a user log him on the system, the information message "RU255 No incorrect confirmations were founds" appear automatically, before to become on the SAP Menu.
I've found the transactions CN30 (project) or IW36 (maintenance&services) which have the same effect (Sales -> Product cost by sales order -> Actual posting -> time sheet -> Transfer -> Post processing confirmations)
Can someone explain me the reason of the apparition of this message at this time and how can I prevent it without a desactivation with transaction SE91?
Thanks a lot for your assistance.

Hello Mr Lakshmipathi,
Thanks for your answer.
We are actually working on version ECC6.0. This note is dated from 2002 and is not precisely relevant with my problem.
I've also see the note 370387 (2001 but more relevant), but the problem isn't solved yet.
If you have an another idea... thanks in advance.
Regards.

No FireWire ports were found on MacBook Pro 15.4" running Mac OS 10.6.4

Hello all,
I recently bought a Mac Book Pro with Intel Core i7 and 2,66 GHz with a 4 GB RAM. The system is good, until I connected my external hard drive from Mac Way that connects to the laptop through a Firewire 800. The HD mounts well with a USB but not with a Firewire 800. I then went to the System Profiler and found this message in Hardware/Firewire - No FireWire ports were found.
I restarted the system and the system hangs or takes like three minutes to start, usually it starts in less than a minute. So I pressed on the power button for 5 seconds and again started the machine.
This time, surprise the HD mounts and in the Firewire in System Profiler, I have Firewire Bus, and when I click on it I have OEM ATA Device 00 and below

No Open Items were found

Hi
I am trying to clear open items using F-44
I am getting an error "No Open Items were found" .
But when i go and see in FBL1N , I can see the open items there.
What can be the reason ?
PS: The posting date of the items is in 2005. Is this causes any problem?
Thax. for your help.
-erpMAN-

The most common reason is that the invoice is in a payment run.
try to run a f.80 on the invoice in question ( in test mode) to see if you can reverse it.
If you cant more than likely it will be in a payment run.
Have a look in the payment run tables to confirm this. REGUH & P
Are you sure the document is an open item? Is it in BSIK or BSAK?
Hope this helps.

Incorrect structure was found in the PDF message

I have a folder level javascript that creates a custom menu item which when clicked inserts a page at the end of the open document.
Sometimes when executed, a dialog box appears that says "An incorrect structure was found in the PDF file" but the page is inserted anyway.
We work with a lot of documents that have been scanned as a PDF. However, as I said it only occurs with some documents....
Is it just the way they have been scanned? Or is there an error in my script? Or perhaps another explanation?
Could I suppress that particular alert since the page is inserted anyway?
---edit----
I have just checked the script with Acrobat 7.0 and although I don't get the 'Incorrect structure was found in the PDF' message the javascript debugger appears with this message in the console:'Exception in line 19 of function anonymous, script folder-level:App:InsertSummaryPage.js' but once again the page is still inserted anyway.
Here is the javascript I am using to insert a page:
trustedNewDoc = app.trustedFunction(function ()
app.beginPriv(); // Explicitly raise privilege
this.insertPages({nPage:this.numPages-1, cPath:"/C/Program Files/Adobe/Acrobat 7.0/Acrobat/Javascripts/SummaryPage.pdf"});
app.endPriv();
app.addMenuItem({cName:"Insert Summary Page", cParent:"Tools", cExec:"trustedNewDoc()"});
Thanks

Larry – I did what you said and got the form to comply. I combined all the pages and suffered as the software bombed about every third or fourth move I made. For some reason, the form fields work like they should, but the text never goes into the order you want it to. I was having to move the text to the bottom and it would bomb every time I did. I would launch the software again and it would work for about 5 or 6 moves, but every time I moved the text to its proper place in the order, it bombs the program.
But your suggestion was the correct one.
I did get the message that some of the names were the same and I’ve had that happen before. I’ve gotten better at my naming convention. I’m hooked up to a network here and some times when they are doing whatever they do behind the scenes, I’ve had the software not cooperate or not perform optimally.
Our forms here were all built long ago, and the nature of them is to cram as much info onto a page as you can. It’s not uncommon to have 150 – 200 items per page. This makes compliance a real effort.
Thanks again for all your help.

I have seen this problem also. To be clear, this occurs straight out of the box. In other words - launch eclipse, create a new workspace, create a new portal EAR project with the wizard, and then try to deploy it without touching anything. In fact, try changing the portal's facets to anything, plain EAR, 11g default, Portal EAR - it doesn't matter. It will not deploy. Either you get this error or you get deployment errors complaining about missing library references in the weblogic-application.xml. Then - you have to do surgery just to get an 'out of the box' portal to run. Very frustrating.

Errors were found when compiling the workflow. The workflow files were saved but cannot be run.

Greetings All,
I am having issues with a SharePoint Designer workflow. This is a SharePoint 2013 environment, I'm using SharePoint Designer 2013 and working on a SharePoint 2010 workflow. I'm developing this as a SharePoint 2010 workflow because I need to do
impersonation.
The environment and workflow have been running, in the past week, without issue. I went to add a couple steps and now I cannot publish the workflow. While in SharePoint Designer, I receive the error:
"Errors were found when compiling the workflow. The workflow files were saved but cannot be run." When I click the Advanced button on the error dialog, the message is "Unexpected error on server associating the workflow."
That is all the error information I have available; nothing is in the log files.
I have investigated this error and tried the following:
Cleared the SharePoint Designer cache.
The WebApp.UserDefinedWorkflowMaximumComplexity was at 7000 so I increased it to 10000. Restarted the servers (which may not have been necessary) and tried again receiving the same error. I then increased it to 30000 with the same error result.
Since this is a large workflow, I tried created a workflow with a single action, write to workflow log, with the same error results.
I reboot the servers and try again and now I can publish the small test workflow but not the original. However, neither will run. When I attempt to manually run the small test workflow on an item, I get an error: "Sorry something went wrong.
An unexpected error occurs. I checked the log files for the correlation id and nothing, nothing was logged for the error. ~arg~
Also, now no workflows can be published in this web app. Not just the one I was working on but none of them!
Does anyone have a clue what has happened to the SharePoint 2010 workflow service? Or some suggestions for me to try?
Thank you in advance for your help!

Hi Sagar,
I appreciate it but if you see my original post, this is a SharePoint 2010 workflow that cannot be published; which has now caused all SharePoint 2010 workflows in the same web app to error.
Your first link is specific to SharePoint 2013 workflows.
Your second link refers to the UserDefinedWorkflowMaximumComplexity. If you read my original post, I've already tried this and I've tried to publish a small (single activity) workflow.
Your third link also refers to large workflows with many approval activities. My workflow doesn't contain any approval activities.
And you fourth link refers to 2013 workflows not 2010.
My issue is with publishing and running a SharePoint 2010 workflow in SharePoint 2013.
Thank you...

Windows 7 Installation problem: "no drives were found, click to load driver..."

I just purchased a Toshiba Satellite laptop (U945-S4140) that came with windows 8. I am trying to install windows 7 enterprise 64 bit.
I have the installation file on a bootable USB stick. In order to boot from the USB, I have to go into the BIOS settings and change from UEFI to CSM boot mode. Then the computer will boot from the usb stick and the windows 7 installation begins to work fine.
However, I soon get an error message that "no drives were found. click to load driver to provide a mass storage driver for installation."
I cannot figure out how to proceed. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Cheers

I have tried many solutions....Maybe I should provide more details on my options.
Through my university I am granted the rights & license to use a copy on windows enterprise. From them I obtained a valid product key and also downloaded an ISO install file. It seems as if this file was designed to be burned to a dvd. I used windows 7 usb/dvd tool to burn the ISO file to a DVD. No problem there. However, my new laptop does not have an optical drive. So, I borrowed an external one that plugs in via USB. Again, in order to get ANYTHING to happen, I need to boot the USB(dvd rive) in CSM mode. Even then, it doesn't work. (I'm sorry but I forget the specific error I got here.....there have been so many methods and so many errors today)
Now, with this DVD, I have had a little bit of progress if I click the setup.exe file while Windows 8 is running. It begins the Windows 7 setup program, and even sees the harddrive! It asks me what partition I want to install to, and I selected the only 1 (of 4) that it said was 'available' to write to. Then, it loaded the installation files, but when it went to automatically restart, it froze during the 'starting windows' screen just as the little colored circles appear, that eventually form the windows logo. Again, I think the problem here might have been that during the restart, it looked to the USB-DVD drive, which needs CSM mode to boot properly, but Windows 8 can only start in UEFI mode.
Any attempt to put this ISO file onto a USB stick have not worked well. I used Rufus and the only thing that slightly worked was burning the ISO to the USB stick with a 'GPT partition scheme for UEFI controller' with the 'FAT32' file system. When using this to boot, I did not have to change the BIOS to CSM mode. The screen for 'loading files' came up like the installer was going to work. However, the computer then froze during the 'Starting Windows' screen, however, this time the little circles actually were able to form the windows logo. But, at that point I was left with a pulsing windows logo and it was stuck. It did not even make it to the actual installer.
The situation I posted about originally is slightly different. Some tech guys at my department's electronic shop have a bootable USB stick with the windows 7 enterprise installation software already on it. I used that and was at least able to get a little bit into the windows 7 setup before it told me it cannot find a disk to install to (as in my original post).

Hello Maxxpower33, thank you for your words.
I looked through the error logs that could be generated from the tool and found this one which may be what you experienced. Kindly let me know if this is what you got:
"Files copied successfully. However, we were unable to run bootsect to make the USB device bootable. If you need assistance with bootsect, please click the "Online Help" link above for more information."
Some further information is that I found this post where another user experienced the same error on a laptop, although the speculation mentioned in the post is that the user does not have a Windows store account under which he purchased the license for Windows
7 Home Premium, which is the flavor he was trying to get on the bootable drive. However, this does not seem to be a valid response due to the fact that the tool does not check Windows XAuthCert Servers for validation on licensing. So ignore that
portion of the post, but the 2nd post helps a bit by linking to another article, providing both below.
Forum Port With Same Error
Article with 4 methods to create
a bootable Windows 7 USB Drive
In that first post, further down, is another reply to a tool that I have not tested with. So please use caution on this one as I cannot find very much feedback other than on their own website, but sounds much like the first tool I mentioned in my first
post "Unetbootin", but this one is called Rufus, and two people did mention they had good success with this tool after having difficulties with the Windows utility.
Rufus
After all that is said and done, there is not 1 tool that will work for everyone all of the time on every environment. Why? I would like to know also...but speculate hardware/firmware/bios combinations could be the culprit. One of these
tools should work for you and it would be my recommendation to try them in this order (skipping what you've already tried):
1) Windows 7 USB/DVD Download Tool
2) Unetbootin
3) Manually creating the partition and xcopy'ing the extracted ISO to it
4) Rufus
5) Borrow a PC with a DVD-R in it and burn the ISO to a disc and install from it. If your laptop does not have a DVD drive, an external drive can be purchased for roughly $25 or less. Or if you have an internal drive laying around, buy an enclosure
for about $15 and put the drive inside there and attach it to your laptop via USB or eSATA.
As always, my advice is nothing more than my opinion, which are like bungholes...everyone has one and they all stink! LOL!

Seagate external drive: Partition map check failed because no slices were found

I have a 3TB Seagate Expansion external backup drive connected to my Retina Macbook Pro via USB. The disk will not eject from a regular Finder window - it will only eject from Disk Utility. Backups seem to otherwise be running fine. I tried to verify/repair the disk in Disk Utility, and I got the following error: "Partition map check failed because no slices were found." I am able to verify/repair the partition without any problem, and no errors are found.
