Screenshare - costs - etc.

I have built a screenshare app using the latest spark code and would like to start using it across
some of my clients that I am working with on a daily basis. Are there any stats available on usage
per minute, etc.? Trying to figure out how much higher volume of usage would cost me.
Also, is there any way to improve on the default video quality while speeding up the response
time? I am using the LCCS service for a bi-directional connection between two PCs in my home.
There still seems to be about a half a second to one second lag time between move points
and actions. Any plans for a P2P version?
Lastly, would like to understand reliability for high-volume commercial applications on LCCS
and terms, etc. Can an employee please connect with me so we can discuss specifics over email?
Thanks,
Michael

To discuss commercial terms you can send us an email at [email protected]
We'll reply to your technical questions tomorrow morning (we are on P.S.T.) but the best way to figure out bandwidth usage is to check the stats in DevPortal.
We have temporary disabled the usage charts due to changes in our backend reporting infrastructure but we'll enable them again in a week or so.

Two questions: how do Skype and iChat compare for group video? quality, reliability, cost, etc are important. 2) Is my MobileMe ID what I need to use in the window in making an iChat buddy? It only says AIM above the window, online tutorial differs.

Hi,
IChat uses better Video Compression than Skype does.
On a top flight Mac you can send a 640 X 480 pixel frame up to 30 frames a sec.
Skype can't match this.
iChat in Video is Peer to Peer. (you can actually Log out of the Buddy list)
Skype seems to borrow something from everyone's bandwidth to make connections.
What do you mean by Business account Tracking ?
iChat Adds (or can add) the First Name, Last Name of your Buddies and create an Address Book Entry
Whether you mark those cards connected with a company is up to you.
(I have heard of issues with earlier version of iChat and the Address Book that "saw" the Company Name as the part of the Name and linking several Screen Names to the one name
Audio on a Mac using Skype tend to be the same as the streaming needs are less.
However you have to rely on any PCs audio abilities from PCs which may not be to the same standard.
Mac to PCs in iChat and AIM can be difficult though. (It should work but it rarely as simple as Plug and go)
Skype may suit your needs better on ocassions.

Need help with EVENT BOOKING: option for multiple, payment (pay pal standard or pro only) add cost, etc

Hello!
I'm at my wits end: please help! It seems straight forward, and I sold my client on BC thinking this was doable in the events module, but it seems maybe not so without a ton of custom coding.
1. Book an event online,
with option for multiple (say 1-5 people at a fixed cost per person),
and checkout using only Pay Pal (standard or pro, doesn't matter, but I think Standard won't work without shopping cart).
2. The events are every day but Sunday all year long (just admission to an attraction), so is there a way to upload months in advance so they don't have to be manually entered?
I'm so grateful for any assistance.

This is all very achievable:
• Events you can add multiple people to book.
• PayPal you use use our APP that's in the BC Appstore (Liam to confirm is works with bookings)
I'm sales and marketing at Pretty, so I'm not the person to advise on how all this fits together. But I'm sure Liam can point you in the right direction.
If you need some consulting or us to do it for you just let me know [email protected]

How to measure Availability Complexity Operation & Maintenance Costs etc

Dear All
We have multiple configurations for attaining High Availability, Maximum Availability with and / or across data centers for databases. Some employ Active - Active Clustering Solution while Some use Active - Passive Solution. Some employ only OS clusters like Sun Clusters,Veritas clusters. Often as I noticed, a combination of OS cluster say Veritas Cluster as well as Oracle Cluster (Clusterware + RAC) in their database solutions.
In such situations how does one come up with Quantitative analysis of each methodology? What are the inputs one would need and how does these calculations come up? While searching on internet, I have seen at times ACTIVE - ACTIVE Database clusters using VCFS and Oracle Clusters RAC say the availability is some 99.xx% while other approaches are accordingly rated. How does one come up to such quantitative decisions? Could you please advice.
I was asked to come up with such numbers in terms of below mentioned items for a few approaches I suggested.
Availability of the Database
Complexity of Architecture and understanding.
Set up costs.
Operational Costs.
Cost of Maintenance
For your understanding I've suggested below approaches to attain High availability with Production Data Centre.
Approach - I : I will have Active - Passive Database running on node a and b respectively. DB1 will be active on node a and DB2 will be active on node b. In the event of failure they will fail over to the alternative.
Approach - I : I will have Active - Passive Database running on node a and b respectively. DB1 and DB2 will be active on node a and node b will always running waiting for a failover event. In the event of failure they will fail over to node b.
Approach - III : I will have DB1 and DB2 active on Node a. We could configure Dataguard (Logical or a physical standby) on node b in the production data centre.
Approach IV : I will have a two node cluster running RAC and will have ACTIVE- ACTIVE database DB1 and DB2 running on them.
Personally I like the Approach IV. However, for business reasons, we need to make a decision based on quantitative analysis done.
If one of you have already done one such excercise, could you please share yoru experiences here?
Many Many thanks for all your guidence in this direction.
Regards!

Non Availability of the Database: Time taken to detect failure+ OS failover + starting of the database
Complexity of Architecture and understanding: From oracle side there is no complexity as hardware cluster takes care about this
Set up costs: If management has already decided to have one server for each database, then no extra cost except the cost of license of the hardware cluster. Else cost of extra server.
Operational Costs: (None) (Excluding the dba/sa task to verify the failover)
Cost of Maintenance: (None) (Excluding the dba/sa task to verify the failover)
Approach - I : I will have Active - Passive Database running on node a and b respectively. DB1 and DB2 will be active on node a and node b will always running waiting for a failover event. In the event of failure they will fail over to node b.
Non Availability of the Database: Time taken to detect failure+failover+starting of the database*2 (Since both the database needed to be failover)
Complexity of Architecture and understanding: From oracle side there is no complexity as hardware cluster takes care about this
Set up costs: If management has already decided to have one server for each database, then no extra cost except the cost of license of the hardware cluster. But you would be underutilizing your one server and over utilizing your another server
Operational Costs: (None) (Excluding the dba/sa task to verify the failover)
Cost of Maintenance: (None) (Excluding the dba/sa task to verify the failover)
Approach - III : I will have DB1 and DB2 active on Node a. We could configure Dataguard (Logical or a physical standby) on node b in the production data centre.
Non Availability of the Database: Since there would be a manual intervantion here. Down time would be (Time taken to detect failure+ time taken to activate standby database)*2 (Since both the database needed to be failover)
Complexity of Architecture and understanding: Complex since data gaurd need to be setup.
Set up costs: License for extra two database and for data gaurd.
Operational Costs: (None)
Cost of Maintenance: Verification that log files are continuously shipped and that there is no lag.
Also note if the database is not in maximum protection mode, chances are that you would loose data. If they are in maximum protection mode, then there would be a performance impact to your production server.
Approach IV : I will have a two node cluster running RAC and will have ACTIVE- ACTIVE database DB1 and DB2 running on them.
Non Availability of the Database: None till the time both cluster goes down.
Complexity of Architecture and understanding: Complex since you would be using RAC
Set up costs: Am not sure about licenscing part of RAC
Operational Costs: None
Cost of Maintenance: Nearly double then using single node Database.
Personally I like the Approach IV. However, for business reasons, we need to make a decision based on quantitative analysis done.
If one of you have already done one such excercise, could you please share yoru experiences here?
Many Many thanks for all your guidence in this direction.

SaratI have not come up with the exact number since it would depends on the infrastructure and hardware.
Moreover Non availibility of database was only due to the fact hardware is not available it does not include the non availibility of database due to the issue with database. If there is issue with database, then even the passive node would not be able to handle it except only inthe case of data guard.

How do I find out info about my G4, where bought it, cost etc

I need information about my G4. I bought it new some years ago but have no longer got the records of my purchase. Where can I find out those details please? The store was in Penrith, but not an Apple store as such. Even the name of the business would be helpful. Thanks.

You could check the location of the business against the Apple - Find Locations
database through Apple Support, to see if any existing independent authorized
Apple resellers appear familiar to you.
Australia
Find Apple Locations for: Sales, Service, Training, Certification, & Consulting.
Enter the city name to help locate nearest authorized Apple business locations.
The above flag icon and country name should be an active link to this URL:
https://locate.apple.com/au/en/
An example of the output the above may provide, is in this link from the Service
location (click on one of four boxes, and add city name, if not a nearby location)
to see a map of the vicinity; in this case authorized Service in Penrith, Australia:
https://locate.apple.com/au/en/service/?pt=4&lat=-33.7521785&lon=150.69104670000002
There are approximately 23 Apple authorized Service locations near Penrith
New South Wales, Australia; to see an other list of possible choices, look in
to the Sales section from the locate link for Australia, instead Service. Some
of the 99 authorized Sales locations also offer specialists, & other experts...
https://locate.apple.com/au/en/sales/?pt=4&lat=-33.7521785&lon=150.69104670000002
In the course of a decade, business names can change or no longer exist; so
even if you did recollect a name that was an authorized Apple reseller, or one
who also provided service, or other support, they'd not have kept records of
each individual sale to now, since that time.
If you kept the original computer carton, those sometimes had the address
and name of the reseller, along with shipping information, on the outside.
Any original receipts, warranty, or bank payment records from the time, you
may have set aside from the purchase, are where you'd find details you ask.
The reason for needing to know the detailed information about the computer,
if explained, may be an easier way to go. What technical or product question
do you have a need to know, at this late a date? Some online databases are
still available, but not ones specific to your singular purchase; even if it were
registered with Apple when new, under warranty considerations at the time.
If you registered the computer with Apple for warranty or AppleCare consideration
at the time of purchase, that in itself would not be enough to pinpoint the store
you bought it from. The Apple Support section may give you minimal info on a
list of former purchases that were sold to you, going back several years, online.
Hopefully you have some researchable technical questions that someone here
in these user-to-user (or peer-based) discussions, can help you with; since the
product is vintage or obsolete, as the trail is quite cold on tracking the item now.
In any event...
Good luck & happy computing!

COGS (Cost of the Goods Sold) in OPM reg.

Hi
Can anyone provide the details about COGS (Cost of the goods sold) documents/set up in R12.
This is very urgent.
Kindly do the needful.
Mail id : [email protected]
Regards
Raj

Hi,
1. Cost of manufacture of a Product is what the value of goods sold or Cost of Goods sold (COGS). Either, you use the SAP Costing module (CO-PC) to let SAP determine COGS or you can manullay input COGS into material master fields (Standard or Moving Average) in Accounting view of Material master. In either case, COGS is stored in the material master valuation (Accounting) view.
2. You mean in a COGS? Whatever costs it takes to manufacture a product is included in COGS, for instance Material cost, Labor cost etc.,
Hope this helps.
PS: There is lot of documentation available online SAP help protals and please refrain from using this forum for asking such basic questions and restrict to only questions of clarificatory in nature or issue based questions.
Make an effort to read the SAP help documentation for all your basic questions.

How much will it cost me to replace the whole top screen of my macbook, including the part that pivots to open and close it?

I'm not sure of what it's exactly called, but my whole screen (including the black part that attaches the screen to the keyboard) is in bad condition. My screen is cracked, and when I open my macbook, the hinge is loose and flops and does not stay in place. Does anybody know how much it would cost for a replacement? Would I be better off buying a new laptop?
Thanks

This is an international community. Prices vary from country, state, city, etc.
You should call the repair shop of your choice and ask for an estimate. Make sure the estimate includes taxes, labor costs, etc.
Remember, no one can give you an exact figure until the repair techs physically examine & run diagnostics on your computer to confirm what is wrong w/it.

Production Orders cost

Hi gurus,
I'm not sure if this is the right forum, but I'm PP consultant and just starting a new projec on which the most important topics are production and costs so here are my questions.
1.- What is the responsability of the PP consultant regarding production costs, order costs, product costing etc?
2.- Can someone explain the integration of PP and CO.
3.- In my client company I see this scenario: it is a consumable goods manufactory industry and they buy cinnamon but they only make a huge one purchase a year, only in january they buy the cinnamon and it lasts for all year, so on that particular month they have to pay for the hole freight of the cinnamon, the product that uses the cinnamon does not reflect the real costs since the whole freight is taken at january, then in february they have excellent results since they produce the same qty but with less costs.
This is a common problem here, because there are like 5 raw materils that are bought in this way, so how to reflect a proportion of the cost while consuming the raw material? and the question also would be if I as PP consultant should do that or is it CO stuff.
Thanks experts I hope you can help me with this, I would really appreciate

Dear standard values and activity types relevant to cost centers are defined in work centers(CR01) which are assigned in
particular material routings(CA01) and activity rates are maintained in KP26.

Cost of replacing glass screen of MacBook Pro?

Yesterday I went to my desk and found a crack curving across the screen of my 15" MacBook Pro. I genuinely have no idea how it happened as it had been sitting alone for several hours. There's no damage to the casing or to the LCD beneath the glass. At first I thought it was a scratch because of how thin and at the surface it is, but then with the way it travels across the screen I realized it was a crack. My husband did a few internet searches and we found a post that said if the laptop gets too hot, it may crack the screen (and my laptop had not been shut down in a while). Has anyone else heard of this happening?
My applecare expired for the device a few months back and because of the age of my laptop (purchased in 2009) I was told I was not allowed to renew it.
So, with me covering the price of replacing the glass, I was wondering if anyone knew approximately how much this would cost (or if Apple would replace just the glass at all because I've read several topics where people said they would only replace the entire upper half of the laptop, including casing and LCD).
If anyone else has had to replace just the glass part, I'd be very much interested in hearing about your experience of getting this repaired.
Thanks in advance.

Split Standard Cost during Goods Issue

Dear Experts,
I have a problem and would like to take your help.
In SD, when we do a good issue to customer i.e. during posting of delivery document, the system credits the inventory and debits the SCOGS. In most of the clients I have worked, the SCOGS always is posted to a singe GL account.
Is it possible to do a SCOGS posting to various GL accounts by splitting the SCOGS into its various components like - Material, Labor, External costs, etc?
Any help will be highly appreciated.
Thanks and regards,
Vishal.

Hi,
OBYC has automatic account assignment (GBB/VAX/VAY) for COGS PGI posting. I don't see a way, you can achieve this in standard SAP. Moreover, how did you plan to determine cost components splits (Mat, Lab etc.,)? from CO-PC?
Is this conceived as a work around to activating CO-PA? Otherwise, I can suggest you to consider activating CO-PA, which does exactly what you expect (margin reporting), provided you have CO-PC active.
If CO-PA is ruled out, then some kind of enhancement should be thought of. Posting cost component break-up to FI-GL may not be a legal requirement and I see this as more of a internal management reporting. So, instead of focussing on posting to GL, focus on creating a report which shows this break up.
Hope this helps.

Hi Moazzam
Actually I am not a new member, just created a new ID. Unfortunately I have lost my old id .
I did search Google and SCN from the last two days before posting this discussion in SCN. Some of the good links which helped me for the configuration are:
Standard Shipment Process
Shipment Cost Processing - Delta - TD - Transportation and Distribution - SAP Library
Transportation Configuration and Process Flow - ERP Operations - SCN Wiki
Shipment cost
Shipment cost basic configuration...
Transportation (LE-TRA) - SAP Library
Shipment cost - VI01
Net value is zero when creating shipment cost
ETC...
Currently get the SDTRA.PDF document which I am reading .....
Infact after reading all the document I still unable to understand the proper technical flow required for shipment cost calculation.
Please share me your concept, it will be helpful for me.

Planned cost for int labour and non stockable material not visible

Hey gurus,
While creating an order with a material, ext service, non stock material, I am able to see the planned cost for materials in stock and ext services procured. But i'm not able to see the planned cost for non stock material and int labour. However i'm able to see the actual cost for all the items. I think I have missed some config. Please help.
Regards,
Abhishek

Hi,
As said by Pithan there is a problem in costing variant for planned cost which you have assigned to prder type at plant level.
Problem underlies within valuation variant assigned to costing variant.PM01 is your costing variant here.Check diiferent heads within valuation variant for this costing variant.There under activities tab what is calculation parameter you have selected.If it is blank you will not get any internal activity cost.You need to select at least one from dropdown like cost from previous period or avaerage cost etc.Then you will get planned cost for internal activities.SAmething applies to non stock material.
Check in OKP6 for all these and make sure that you have selected at least one cost calculation schema there for activities and material and external.
Regds,
