Scorecard Time Conversion Issues

Hi -
I'm having an issue with getting the right calculation for the latest year (to date) for a monthly metric with the following 3 values. This is with 3/31/2010 selected for the 'As Of' date in the scorecard, and the metric has the time conversion set to 'Average'.
Jan 2010- 32,905
Feb 2010- 32,766
Mar 2010- 36,940
I would expect the latest year (to date) for the above values to equal 34,203.67, but it is coming back as 34,251.59 (FISCAL is set to standard calendar year). Does anyone know why this may be happening?
Also, when I select 'latest quarter' with different 'As Of' dates within the 1st quarter, the result yields different numbers. I was expecting the same number to come back since the dates selected are within the same quarter. Does anyone know why this may be happening?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Jason

Hi Jason,
Please check the following thread for an explanation on how the latest and latest to date selections work:

Hope this helps!

Automatic time conversion is not possible

Hi Friends,
I have a problem in Transformation Level when i am mapping "automatic time conversion is not possible for source field FISCPER to 0FISCYEAR,FISCPER3".can any one help me in this issue.
Thanks
Narasimha

Yes if it was date filed then it would have been possible.If you are trying to derive the fiscal year between datasource and cube then you can get it with the help of simple filed level routine.
Map your fiscper field from source to fiscal year--Rule type Routine.
RESULT = SOURCE_FIELDS-(Technical name of source field)+0(4).
For Posting period
Map your fiscper field from source to fiscper3 year--Rule type Routine.
RESULT = SOURCE_FIELDS-(Technical name of source field)+4(3).
This will give you the required output.

Conversion issue in encoding in PI

Hi,
I am having a problem in conversion issue for encoding. Let's have a detailed look into the scenario first.
Scenario: SNC->PI (through Proxy)->MQ (through Receiver JMS adapter)->SeeBeyond (It's a middleware system).
Here from SNC, data are coming into PI as in UTF-8 encoding, whereas all the systems shown in the above flow are of ISO 8859_1 format. Hence UTF-8 needs to be converted into ISO 8859_1. PI does this conversion in Receiver JMS adapter. CCSID has been set to 00819 which is for ISO 8859_1 encoding. But the beginning of the xml, it remains still UTF-8, like below:-
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>
Whereas the content of the xml has already been converted into ISO 8859_1 by Receiver JMS adapter. Now let's see the problem now.
Problem: After the data been passed in SeeBeyond, the mapping fails in SeeBeyond, since SeeBeyond tries to look at the XML tag from the beginning and it found it's in UTF-8 as per he tag above. Then it tries to map it in UTF-8 format whereas the content is in ISO 8859_1, so mapping fails in SeeBeyond. Please note, here allthe systems except SeeBeyond are just bypassing the data, no mapping been introduced in anywhere in the systems except SeeBeyond.
Workaround: Is there any other chance where we can change the tag header from UTF-8 to ISO 8859_1 in Receiver JMS adapter itself in PI like this:-
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="iso 8859_1" ?>
This might resolve our problem I think. Any suggestions would be appreciated.
Thanks and Regards
Soumya

Hi Stefan,
Thanks for your reply. I have gone through the link you have specified. Ya, that's the other way to resolve that issue in that case. But here we have asked the receiver system (SeeBeyond) to change the encoding part in their mapping. Because changing the coding part in SeeBeyond is less time consuming than adding a new Bean in JMS adapter. Our problem got resolved by changing the mapping in Receiver end. Thanks anyway for your valuable reply.
Thanks

MBP shuts down when making Quick time conversion

MBP core duo 1.83 2G ram current updated software.
It shuts down when I try to do a Quick time conversion..
went to the Genius bar and booted from another drive and my macbook still shut down when doing a QT conversion. He says that means it is NOT a software issue.. blames the logic bd.. 310. for a fix if I send it out.. they would keep it overnight and do testing for free.
the console says "previous shut down cause: 3"... He said that was a code for shutting down by holding the button for 4 seconds and got all puzzled about that.
I have been able to convert files using Compressor which I have to do before I can use the go pro video in final cut.
it might have shut down once during a conversion that way.

Monitor your CPU core temp and see at what temp the computer shuts off. Also, download SystemLoad and run that for awhile to stress the processor. See if you can get it to shut down with that and at what temp.

Can't use Final Cut Express Export Using Quick Time Conversion with iDVD.

I am using iDVD 08v 7.0.4 and until 3 days ago I could import and create iDVD's using Final Cut Express export using Quick Time Conversion. There was an update that downloaded for iDVD. Since then, I can only use Final Cut Express Exports that is a self contained Quick Time Movie.
I have never had this kind of apple and apple problem. I am disappointed that I'm having apple issues like this.

Are you on latest 10.5.x release and latest FCE updates? Your info line says 10.5.1 and you didn't list FCE version. Not saying that will fix problem, but might help. You also might want to explain how you did your Quicktime conversion.

Currency conversion issue in SPM. We are getting incorrect results with SPM conversion function from one of the document currency to USD.

Currently we are using SPM 2.0 version and we have been facing currency conversion issues.
Please help me in following aspects.
1) Where actually currency conversion happens in SPM. Is it the global program which does the conversion or other way.
2) We have conversion issue for one of the currency where conversion function is giving incorrect results when converting from one of the document currency to USD. here The respective document currency is considering the 1:1 ratio with Dollar which is actually incorrect.
3) We have verified in both BI side(currency tables) and even ECC side.
Please help me in understanding this issue and let me know if you need more information on this.
Its an production issue and appreciated your immediate inputs.
Thanks
Kiran

Hi Arun,
The following information may be helpful to you.The SSA_HELPER_PROGRAM has options regarding currency settings.
EXCH_RATE_TYPE: This flag governs the exchange rate type which will be used for currency conversion in data management. For example if RSXAADMIN contains an entry EXCH_RATE_TYPE = „ZSPM‟ then the conversion type used for currency conversion is ZSPM. The default value for the exchange rate type is „M‟. More details can be found in the note 1278988.
CURRENCYCONVERSION: By default data management converts all the measures in transaction currency to reporting currency and copies over to the corresponding measure in reporting currency. If the measure in reporting currency is already available in source it might be desirable to disable the currency conversion. To disable the conversion you can make an entry CURRENCYCONVERSION = „ „ in the table RSXAADMIN. This can also be achieved by running the program SSA_HELPER_PROGRAM with the option DEACTIVATE_CURRENCYCONVERSION. The conversion can be reactivated by running the same program with option ACTIVATE_CURRENCYCONVERSION.
UNITCONVERSION: Similar to above. To deactivate unit conversion you can use the program with option and DEACTIVATE_UNITCONVERSION and to reactivate ACTIVATE_UNITCONVERSION. By default both the conversions are switched on
EXTERNAL_CURRENCIES: Normally most of the international currencies are stored with two decimal places however certain currencies do have 0 and 1 decimal place too. For example JPY has 0 decimal places. SAP internal format stores even these currencies with 2 decimal places and at the time of display it changes the value to right decimal places. In case a file from external source is loaded to SPM it might have the format with 0 decimal places in the file. To convert it to SAP standard format post processing needs to be done on this value. If that is the case you can set the flat EXTERNAL_CURRENCIES = „X‟ in the table which will enable the post processing for these values. This flag can also be set and reset using the helper program using the option TURNON_EXT_CURRENCY_FORMAT and TURNOFF_EXT_CURRENCY_FORMAT.

I think I solved my time changing issues- hope this helps

Hey everyone, I think I've had some success with my time changing issues. I originally posted this to another user as a follow up to her question, but I'm reposting it here. Hope it helps:
"msteinny,
So i went to the apple store to meet with an apple genius to ask him why my phone's time kept moving up 1 hour everytime I synced my phone. Well he said that he's never seen this problem before, and after a trying a reset and restore he let me exchange my phone. The problem is that when I went to sync my new phone the problem still persisted. They told me it was probably something to do with my computer and its time zone settings.
So I get home and click on my computers clock in the bottom right hand corner to bring up the date and time properties and sure enought my time is correct, the date is correct and the time zone is correct (Eastern Daylight Time). So I look through the different tabs (Date & Time, Time Zone, Internet Time). The first thing I tried to do was to change where my computer syncs its internet time. It was originaly set on NIST time. I then switched it to Windows time, but this didn't do anything. My clock would still change when I synced to itunes. The next thing I tried was fideling around in the Time Zone tabs. I noticed that the box that says "Automatically adjust clock for daylight savings" was unchecked, so I checked it and my computer's time jumped an hour ahead. So I left the box checked but moved my clock one hour back (to the correct time), clicked on apply and left it at that. I synced my iPhone and voila! The time didn't change! It stayed on the correct time! To to make a long story short, make sure that you computer's clock is set on "automatically adjust clock for daylight savings changes, make sure your time zone is correct, and that the time is right when that box is checked. I hope this helps you. I'm glad I got a new phone out of the deal;)
Chris P. "

As I mentioned in my post, whenever I checked that box the time would be incorrect. It would move up an hour. I've messed with this along time ago, way before I got my iphone. I think this had something to do with the daylight savings change that was implemented this year or last year. I dont remember if I never tried correcting it before, or if I couldn't, but this time I didn't have any problems correcting it. Anyway, since I couldn't correct it back then, I just left the box uncheck and decided that I would change the time manually when the next time change occurs. But it seems to work fine now so all is well.

Can I have a Face Time conversation between two Apple devices using the same Apple ID?

Can I have a Face Time conversation between two Apple devices using the same Apple ID?

Yes, you can, but the two devices can't have the same e mail address associated with both. Each, device needs its own unique e mail ADR. In your case, the iPod can call your iPhone if you use the phone number, but the iPhone can not call your iPod because it must use the e mail address, and if the email address is the same on both, the iPhone will think it's calling itself, so the call will not go through.

The Java plugin has created a time unfriendly issue with my e-mail account, I can not open or send any e-mail without using this plugin, how can I eliminate this problem without dropping m. firefox?

A few days ago I tried to e-mail a friend, when I started A box came up and it required me to add a plugin..Java. I contacted my e-mail courier and microsoft, they told me that is was a plugin from Mozilla Firefox. Since then I must go through Java to send or open an e-mail... this is NOT to my satisfaction, it takes too long for all of this to open and if it is not cleared , I am dropping Mozilla and going elsewhere. Why has this occurred? Is this a result of the last update? If so can I delete the last update and continue on the other version?
== This happened ==
Every time Firefox opened
== last week

Sorry, I have no idea what you mean by '''"The Java plugin has created a time unfriendly issue with my e-mail account, I can not open or send any e-mail without using this plugin,"'''.
If you think your problem is caused by the Java plugin, you should visit the Java support forum for assistance.
http://forum.java.sun.com/index.jspa
If you could explain what you mean by '''"time unfriendly''' issue with my e-mail account", maybe we'll be able to help you solve that issue.
It might be helpful for us if we knew exactly which web-mail provider you are using. It seems strange to me that viewing or sending web-mail would actually "need" Java for operation, its more likely that some other item on the web page needs Java to run some advertising or other garbage that isn't a necessary part of the web-mail functionality you want to use.

FM - Budget check at the time of procurement and at the time of Issue

Hi
For a Material there is a budget for a procurement ( Check should happen at the time of procurement and a seperate budget for consumption ( Check should happen at the time of issue).How can I map this in FM- BCS.I am thinking of creating two commitmen items one for Procurement , to be derived thorugh matl grp at the time of PR / PO and One commitment item for consumption to be derived through consumption GL . Does it work , any comments?
Thanks in advance
Chris

Yes you are right , I have to make to sure stock budget doesn't get credited.
If you remember in one of my other threads, i wanted to derive commitment item from Matl grp, it was for this purpose. I will derive commitment through matl group at the time of procurement / GR etc and assign a dummy commitment item to stock a/cs. Where as i will derive a consumption commiment item from consumption GLs.
Thank you
Chris

Different G/L code at the time of issue for projects .

Dear all;
here there is requirement :
Say we are having three different WBS element .for a particular Material ,at the time of issue it should goes to different G/L Code.How to map this in SAP system .
I have configured in OBYC setting as below :
GBB
Valueation Modifier general Modifier valueation Class G/L account
1101 VBR 3000(Raw Mat) XYZ
Kindly give me some solut

Do you mean that every time you issue for a particular WBS element it should post to a differnt G/L account.
If thats you requirement then its not possible to post to a new G/L account every time when you are issuing a material.
The G/L account is determined based on the movement type, and creating new movement type every time to post into a G/L account is not feasible solution.
What you can do is post into a differnt cost object like a profit center or cost center to track down the costs by posting them at the time of Goods issue.
Thanks & Regards

While handling the issue till the time it get fixed, each time the status gets updated but not maintaining the status history along with the description and solution. We need to figure out the status history .

Any report to identify Time Constraint issues?

Hello,
Is there a report that I can run to get the employees and Infotype records with time constraint issues? So until last week, we had not turned on the PC-UI switch in T77S0 table. So the way it worked was, if in history there were 2 records with time gaps for Infotype with time constraint = 1, then it still allowed us to create new records. Now with the switch turned on, it gives an error. Once the historic records are corrected, it allows us to proceed. This is freaking out a lot of data specialists, and we were wondering if we can proactively identify the employees with these historic data inconsistencies and be able to correct them. Please let me know.
Thanks,
