  • Advise on Migration project

    Hi,
        I have recently completed BI 7.0 training and have the opportunity to move into a upgrade project (don't know whether it is R/3 or BW upgrade yet) to get my first BI project exposure. I am not sure what all should I check before joining the project so that I can better utlise my time in some other implementation project in case this is not an ideal choice.
        Please can you advise in which case it is better - R/3 upgrade or BI upgrade in terms of getting more hands-on experience in BI and also whether a upgrade project is at all advisable as the first project. I checked some other posts and it appears that in case of R/3 upgrade there is not much work required at the BI end. Is it true ? I have lots of experience in ABAP and so want to get exposure in this new technology.
    Tx,
    R

    Why not...this is going to be a great experience ( and since this is your first project, everything is an experience for you). Also, whether it R3 or BI, learning is going to be there for sure...

  • Business delegate pattern doubt

    Hi,
    One of the reasons for going for Business delegate pattern is because the business components is vulnerable to changes.
    Suppose if the business component has a method
    getAccountInfo( int Accountnumber)
    The business delegate pattern may have a method
    getAccountInfoFromBusiness(Accountnumber int)
    return businesscomponent.getAccountInfo(Accountnumber);
    and the presentation tier components will have code containing invoking to getAccountInfoFromBusiness method.
    Now suppose if business component method signature changes then the signature of business delegate class will also change. This turn in requires changes to presentation tier components. I really dont understand why business delegate pattern is needed.

    Hi,
    One of the reasons for going for Business delegate
    pattern is because the business components is
    vulnerable to changes.Abstraction is your first tool to reduce a projects exposure to change.
    Secondly filling you code with getter and setters is a bad idea, it's procedural not OO, Objects should express themselves.
    So instead of :
    Suppose if the business component has a method
    getAccountInfo( int Accountnumber)consider
         Account account = getAccount( AccountID accountID ) ;          // or
         Account account = findAccount( AccountName accountName ) ;
         ... AccountInfo = account.toString( FULL ) ;          // or
         ... AccountSummary = account.toString( SUMMARY ) ;     // or
         ... AccountBalance = account.balance() ;This abstracts the Account's identification, from an int, makes your code robust to change, and more flexible, and easier to understand.
    The business delegate pattern may have a methodThis is not good, the naming is particularly specific and relies on assumptions about the architecture, it looks like a a global function, yet should be a method of businesscomponent, which is also badly named.
    getAccountInfoFromBusiness(Accountnumber int)
              return businesscomponent.getAccountInfo(Accountnumber);
    }Instead consider the following. I've used abstraction to hide the implementation details, and the relations model real life, and I can handle my objects polymorphically.
         class Account { ... }
         class DayBook {
              Hashtable accounts ;
              public Account getAccount( AccountID accountID )
                   accounts.get( AccountID accountID )
         class MyApp
              DayBook salesDayBook = new DayBook() ;
              DayBook purchaseDayBook = new DayBook() ;
              Account account = salesDayBook.getAccount( theAccID ) ;
              Account account = purchaseDayBook.getAccount( theAccID ) ;
              }Here DayBook is a collection of Accounts, I've two instances, one for my sales one for my purchases.
    and the presentation tier components will have code
    containing invoking to getAccountInfoFromBusiness
    method.
    Now suppose if business component method signature
    changes then the signature of business delegate class
    will also change. This turn in requires changes to
    presentation tier components. I really dont understand
    why business delegate pattern is needed.The Business Delegate is not really a pattern as such, it is an appliction of the Proxy pattern abstracted into Business language/terminology.

  • 48-Hr. Film Project Nightmare

    Well, it's been quite a weekend for this editor. I was a participant in the 48-Hour Film Project - and everything was going okay until about 4pm yesterday, three and 1/2 hours before we were to deliver our finished film. At that point things went terribly, horribly wrong. I was trying to export an HD sequence to an SD-format Quicktime. I had done this before in tests and I knew it could be done, and knew how I wanted to do it. But when it came time, that's when the trouble started.
    Every time I would try to export, I would get the most useless message I think anyone could get - "General Error". What??? And this happened EVERY time, no matter what format settings I tried to export with, no matter what I did. I closed out, trashed prefs, rebooted, ran disk utility to repair permissions - all with no success. We had a good entry, and the pressure was starting to rise. We could not get this $%^&^%$& sequence out of the box. Period.
    We never did manage to get a file. With 1//2 hour left we went into a dark bathroom with an SD camera and pointed it at our Apple Cinema screen, running audio from laptop to camera and shot the screen. Desperation and ingenuity at it's best/worst. Shooting the screen ended up working okay, although there were exposure issues that we didn't have time to deal with. We DID manage to get our entry in, 4 minutes before the deadline - although nobody was happy with the outcome and what had happened.
    The worst part about all of this is that when I returned home after going through all of this and turning in our entry, I started to look into what happened and immediately was able to export with no issues. I just wanted to cry uncontrollably at that point, and laugh hysterically at the same time. There are not words to express. After poking around some more the error did show up again using one of the sequence timelines I had created, but not anything like getting that "General Error" literally almost 100 times in the course of those two - three hours yesterday when I was trying anything/everything I know to get it to export just ONCE. I had the settings, I knew the drill - I had even practiced doing this before this weekend with the camera we used and did tests - all that went out the window when the export issue started.
    All I could think about was how I was glad this wasn't a "paying client" but in reality, all the people who donated their time to our project were the client. At least we delivered something, but it was only a sad facsimile for the great looking and sounding short film we created. Everything I had done to try to avoid this nightmare was to no avail, and all I can figure is that in the process of editing, one timeline got corrupted and managed to keep any timelines from exporting, or something was corrupted on my video drive that reset powered off and then back on when I packed up my gear and went home. I don't believe I cut/reset power to the drive when all of the problems were happening, so maybe that had something to do with it.
    Anyway, thought you might be interested in hearing about this - makes you appreciate not being me yesterday.

    Contrary to the information above, your workflow was far from "unnecessarily risky...". Back in 2007 when the HVX200 was all the rage I helped more than one team in the 48-Hr Film competitions that Panasonic sponsored, they used a nearly identical workflow to yours without a hitch. There are some not-so-obvious benefits to shooting in HD and then making a downconversion to SD that many even today just don't understand.
    The "general error" bug has haunted many a FCP editor - myself included - and unfortunately Apple has never been forthcoming in exactly all the things that could cause this error code. In fact, I had an Apple Pro-Care Tech support tech tell me that the reason it's called a "general error" is because the application itself is unable to determine the source of the problem. It happens.
    As you've probably learned from this exercise you should be prepared to do some heavy-duty troubleshooting when things go awry; you've covered a few things in your list of attempts to fix the problem and here's a short list of other things you can check in the future:
    - Connections to external drives, both in hardware (cables, power-supplies etc) and in software (making sure assets/preferences in FCP can still find those drives and are pointing to them).
    - Get a copy of DiskWarrior and make it part of your regular maintenance routine.
    - Speaking of maintenance, download Onyx (free app); use it's maintenance and cleaning routines regularly.
    - Don't forget the obvious; I did see in your original post that you did all the initial troubleshooting (reboot, trash prefs etc) but don't forget things like basic hardware needs: Check internal power-supplies, make sure RAM is fully connected, listen for drive noises (like heads banging themselves silly).
    Don't take this error bug as an issue with your workflow; HD to down-converted SD is not only safe but a preferential method for making superior-looking SD content whether for broadcast or DVD.

  • Smooth jerky exposure changes in Premiere Elements 13

    Folks - can anyone tell me how to smooth jerky exposure changes caused by the automatic camera settings (temporal smoothing) over a video clip? (Can't seem to find the temporal setting in Premiere Elements 13).

    AndyD74
    Thanks for the follow up replies.
    Your Edit Menu/Project Settings/General readings suggest that you or the project have not set the correct project preset for the project. If the Canon is the major source of your Timeline content, then the project should not be 1080i (the project's default). It should be
    NTSC
    DSLR
    1080p
    DSLR [email protected]
    You are going to have to go to a new project to correct that situation. You cannot change the project preset in 13/13.1 once the project preset has been established.
    If the project (automatically) is not giving you the correct project preset, then you need to set it yourself (manually) before you import the source media.
    File Menu/New/Project and Change Settings
    In Change Settings, set for the project preset mentioned above. OK out of there.
    In the New Project dialog that appears, rename the project and make sure there is a check mark next to "Force Selected Project Setting on This Project". OK out of there.
    Then in the workspace, import your source media with Add Media/
    Another factor is the custom made intro that I created in Aurora3d Title Animation. What are its properties and how do they compare with those of the Canon's 1080p29.97. If you remove the Title Animation from the Timeline, do the problems disappear even with the DSLR project preset pointed to?
    Please review and consider.
    Thank you.

  • Any beginners' guide to Project Online?

    Hi all,

    to Microsoft Project or Project Online, I find it extremely challenging to use it. Thus, I would appreciate your help in pointing me to the right direction in my attempt to learn how to use Project Online. Are there any books that I can refer to get started
    (some sort of beginners' guide would be really useful)?
    Thanks for your help.

  • How do i copy an entire project of photos

    Good evening,
    I am a "new" Aperture user and am looking to make a "duplicate" project and tweak the photos so I have 2 different projects
    containing different dpi & bordered photos.
    Is this possible ?
    Thanx,
    Marcus

    & the learning continues...
    Aperture is a brilliantly conceived and implemented application that has at its core a different paradigm of data management.  Your question shows that you are thinking of Aperture as a _file-manager_ and _file-creator_.  It's ... different, in a way that is almost impossible to grasp at first.  Aperture was designed — afaict — to address a problem photographers using digital cameras faced.  As cameras recorded more data, the files containing the data for each exposure got larger and larger, and both storage and data throughput were becoming problems.  All artists ever have been fond of making and trying variants — in painting schools Cling Wrap is used as a disposable clear film on which to paint ephemeral variants that don't alter the painting underneath.  As photographers took advantage of the ease with which variants of digital image files could be created, they were unintentionally using up all the computer resources they had available.  Enter Aperture.  Instead of creating _whole_ new files, it creates variants by saving _the instructions for how to create the variant_ instead of the variant itself.  The instructions require very _very_ little storage space.  The trade-off is that files that can be used by other programs _do not exist_ and are not saved to disk as image-format files.  When you need a file to use in another program, you create it by exporting an Image from Aperture.
    Aperture is a workspace that saves your work as _the potential to make files_, but does not save those files themselves.
    The "tweaking" that is done in Aperture is to make each digital camera file into an Image that is good as it can be for a particular use.  You specify DPI, and add borders, to files based on your Images when you produce those files by exported Images in Aperture.  For borders, use the excellent and highly-recommended Aperture plug-in BorderFX.
    HTH.  You may find my concise intro to Aperture's parts useful.  I echo Léonie's recommendation of the User Manual.  The first 8 chapters provide a good overview of the program and some much-needed information about the UI.  In particular, understanding Projects, Albums, Smart Albums, and Folders — how they operate and how they differ — is essential for using Aperture without frustration.

  • When I share an album from Aperture to my iCloud photo stream, the people that receive it can only see the photos and and no titles or numbers which is necessary to have client's refer to a specific exposure.

    I have had this problem for a while but cannot seem to figure it out, ever since Apple somehow decided it would be a good idea to dump MobileMe ( which worked perfectly for my needs) I can no longer send clients a contact sheet or webpage of a photo project with names, titles or numbers on each exposure. All they get is a webpage with an asymetrical layout which appears that I am trying to affect their decision and then if they do click on the image they will get the image by itself but only the time & date is displayed which is not much help because we may have a dozen shots taken during the same 60 second period. I have tried all kinds of setting withine Aperture but cant seem to change the displayed outcome on the iCloud photostream.

    You can't see the contents of an iCloud backup on the iCloud website.

  • Help with still photo project in premiere 11

    I'm new to Premiere 11.  I did a project using only stills and music from my macbook pro. The project is about 6.5 minutes long and uses only dissolves and a couple of exposure adjustments. The orange line runs across the top of the entire project so I thought it needed to be rendered. When I hit the render button, nothing happens. I tried to burn it to dvd as is and it burns to 99% and ejects. It will not play in a dvd player although it will play on the computer at a very low quality, poor resolution. Obviously I am missing something. Any ideas???...thanks

    RaySull
    Depending on your computer resources and Premiere Elements 11 on Windows 7 or 8 64 bit as a 64 bit application, you may or may not be able to stretch the classic recommendations for sizing for photos for use in a project destined for DVD-VIDEO on DVD disc. Those recommendations are: for SD, pixel dimensions not to exceed 1000 x 750 pixels and for HD, pixel dimensions not to exceed about 2200 x 1238 pixels. But, since you are experiencing problems with the project that you now have in place, I would encourage you to go by the classical recommendation for photo sizing.
    But keep this in mind...your photos are 3072 x 2048 (3:2) and your DVD-VIDEO is going to be 4:3 or 16:9. If it were just a matter of 4:3 to 4:3, then you would resize. But, when you are going from 3:2 to 4:3 or 16:9, you should consider cropping and resizing. Most of the programs offer batch resizing, some batch cropping and resizing. The free IrfanView program is often mentioned for batch cropping/resizing, while programs such as Photoshop Elements (Process Multiple Files) and Photoshop (Automate/Batch) are frequently mentioned for batch resizing.
    When you are ready for Publish+Share/Disc/DVD disc and are in the burn dialog (with your DVD disc in the burner tray) you will see in the Quality area Space Required and Bitrate information.
    All this does throw into the mix what project preset ot use. In this instance, I would suggest that you set the project preset yourself via File Menu/New/Project. If you crop/resize the photos for DVD-VIDEO widescreen, then set the project preset yourself for NTSC (or PAL) DV Widescreen. If you crop/resize the photos for DVD-VIDEO standard, then set for NTSC (or PAL) DV Standard.
    Please do not hesitate ask if you need clarification on anything that I have written.
    Thanks.

  • Split Project in two Projects

    In one of my projects there are about 2000 pics made in two different countries. Because in Places view I always see both countries on the map, I decided to split the Project in two Projects - one for each country. How can I do this without losing the Places assignments? Thanks!

    Each Image in your Library carries its own Places assignment.  You can move any Image into any Project and it will retain its specific Places information.
    All you need to do is select all of the Images you want to put in your new Project, and "File→New→Project" w. "Move selected items to new project" checked.
    There are several ways to select the Images for just one or your two countries.  If you need suggestions, post back (the best way depends a bit on your use of Places and other metadata).
    Generally, users have found Aperture works better with Projects kept to fewer than 1,000 Images.  This was the case when 3.0 first came out -- I haven't tested any later versions, as I stick with the generally recommended "One Project for each out-in-the-world Shoot" and I rarely bring back more than 500 exposures per shoot.
    (For what it's worth -- the human world had a very different level of material sophistication -- Ansel Adams took 12 plates with him for a day's shooting expedition in Yosemite.  Twelve shots for the day, including mis-takes.)

    Hi Rama
    Retailing consists of the sale of goods or merchandise, from a fixed location such as a department store or kiosk, in small or individual lots for direct consumption by the purchaser.[1] Retailing may include subordinated services, such as delivery. Purchasers may be individuals or businesses. In commerce, a retailer buys goods or products in large quantities from manufacturers or importers, either directly or through a wholesaler, and then sells smaller quantities to the end-user. Retail establishments are often called shops or stores. Retailers are at the end of the supply chain. Manufacturing marketers see the process of retailing as a necessary part of their overall distribution strategy.
    Shops may be on residential streets, shopping streets with few or no houses, or in a shopping center or mall, but are mostly found in the central business district. Shopping streets may be for pedestrians only. Sometimes a shopping street has a partial or full roof to protect customers from precipitation. Retailers often provided boardwalks in front of their stores to protect customers from the mud. Online retailing, also known as e-commerce is the latest form of non-shop retailing (cf. mail order).
    Shopping generally refers to the act of buying products. Sometimes this is done to obtain necessities such as food and clothing; sometimes it is done as a recreational activity. Recreational shopping often involves window shopping (just looking, not buying) and browsing and does not always result in a purchase.
    Most retailers have employees learn facing, a hyperreal tool used to create the look of a perfectly-stocked store even when it is not.

    [edit] Retail pricing
    The pricing technique used by most retailers is cost-plus pricing. This involves adding a markup amount (or percentage) to the retailers cost. Another common technique is suggested retail pricing. This simply involves charging the amount suggested by the manufacturer and usually printed on the product bize the manufacturer.
    In Western countries, retail prices are often so-called psychological prices or odd prices: a little less than a round number, e.g. $6.95. In Chinese societies, prices are generally either a round number or sometimes a lucky number. This creates price points.
    Often prices are fixed and displayed on signs or labels. Alternatively, there can be price discrimination for a variety of reasons, where the retailer charges higher prices to some customers and lower prices to others. For example, a customer may have to pay more if the seller determines that he or she is willing to. The retailer may conclude this due to the customer's wealth, carelessness, lack of knowledge, or eagerness to buy. Another example is the practice of discounting for youths or students. Price discrimination can lead to a bargaining situation often called haggling, in which the parties negotiate about the price. Economists see this as determining how the transaction's total surplus will be divided into consumer and producer surplus. Neither party has a clear advantage, because of the threat of no sale, in which case the surplus vanishes for both.
    Retailers who are overstocked, or need to raise cash to renew stocks may resort to "Sales", where prices are "marked down", often by advertised percentages - "50% off" for example."Sales" are often held at fixed times of the year, for example January sales, or end-of-season sales, or Blue Cross Sale
    [edit] Retail Industry
    Retail Industry has brought in phenomenal changes in the whole process of production, distribution and consumption of Consumer Goods all over the world. In the present world most of the developed economies are using the Retail Industry as their vital growth instrument. At present, among all the industries of U.S.A the Retail Industry holds the second place in terms of Employment Generation. In fact, the strength of the Retail Industry lies in its ability to generate large volume of employment.
    Not only U.S but also the other developed countries like U.K, Canada, France, Germany are experiencing tremendous growth in their Retail Sectors. This boom in the Global Retail Industry was in many ways accelerated by the Liberalization of Retail Sector.
    Observing this global upward trend of Retail Industry, now the developing countries like India are also planning to tap the enormous potential of the retail sector. Wal-Mart,the world's largest Retailer has been invited to India. Other popular Brands like Pantaloons, Big Bazar, Archies are rapidly increasing their market share in the retail sector. According to a survey, within 5 years, the Indian Retail Industry is expected to generate 10 to 15 million jobs by direct and indirect effects. This huge employment generation can be possible because of the fact that being dependent on the the Retail Sector shares a lot of Forward and Backward Linkages.
    Emergence of a strong Retail Sector can contribute immensely to the economic development of any country. With a dominant retail sector, the farmers and other suppliers can sell their produce directly to the major retail companies and can ensure stable profit. On the other hand, to ensure steady supply of goods, the Retail Companies can inject cash into the production system. This whole process can result into a more efficient production and distribution system for the economy as a whole.
    [edit] Etymology
    Retail comes from the French word retaillier which refers to "cutting off, clip and divide" in terms of tailoring (1365). It first was recorded as a noun with the meaning of a "sale in small quantities" in 1433 (French). Its literal meaning for retail was to "cut off, shred, paring". Like the French, the word retail in both Dutch and German (detailhandel and Einzelhandel respectively) also refer to sale of small quantities or items.[citation needed]
    [edit] Retail types
    According to Jim there are three major types of retailing. The first is the market, a physical location where buyers and sellers converge. Usually this is done in town squares, sidewalks or designated streets and may involve the construction of temporary structures (market stalls). The second form is shop or store trading. Some shops use counter-service, where goods are out of reach of buyers, and must be obtained from the seller. This type of retail is common for small expensive items (e.g. jewelry) and controlled items like medicine and liquor. Self-service, where goods may be handled and examined prior to purchase, has become more common since the Twentieth Century. A third form of retail is virtual retail, where products are ordered via mail, telephone or online without having been examined physically but instead in a catalog, on television or on a website. Sometimes this kind of retailing replicates existing retail types such as online shops or virtual marketplaces such as futurebazaar.com or Amazon.[2].
    Buildings for retail have changed considerably over time. Market halls were constructed in the Middle Ages, which were essentially just covered marketplaces. The first shops in the modern sense used to deal with just one type of article, and usually adjoined the producer (baker, tailor, cobbler). In the nineteenth century, in France, arcades were invented, which were a street of several different shops, roofed over. counters, each dealing with a different kind of article was invented; it was called a department store. One of the novelties of the department store was the introduction of fixed prices, making haggling unnecessary, and browsing more enjoyable. This is commonly considered the birth of consumerism [3]. In cities, these were multi-story buildings which pioneered the escalator.
    In the 1920s the first supermarket opened in the United States, heralding in a new era of retail: self-service. Around the same time the first shopping mall was constructed [4] which incorporated elements from both the arcade and the department store. A mall consists of several department stores linked by arcades (many of whose shops are owned by the same firm under different names). The design was perfected by the Austrian architecht Victor Gruen[5]. All the stores rent their space from the mall owner. By mid-century, most of these were being developed as single enclosed, climate-controlled, projects in suburban areas. The mall has had a considerable impact on the retail structure and urban development in the United States. [6]
    In addition to the enclosed malls, there are also strip malls which are 'outside' malls (in Britain they are called retail parks. These are often comprised of one or more big box stores or superstores.
    Non-traditional exterior of a SuperTarget, JacksonvilleLocal shops can be known as brick and mortar stores in the United States. Many shops are part of a chain: a number of similar shops with the same name selling the same products in different locations. The shops may be owned by one company, or there may be a franchising company that has franchising agreements with the shop owners (see also restaurant chain).
    Some shops sell second-hand goods. Often the public can also sell goods to such shops, sometimes called 'pawn' shops. In other cases, especially in the case of a nonprofit shop, the public donates goods to the shop to be sold (see also thrift store). In give-away shops goods can be taken for free.
    There are also 'consignment' shops, which is where a person can place an item in a store, and if it sells the person gives the shop owner a percentage of the sale price. The advantage of selling an item this way is that the established shop give the item exposure to more potential buyers.
    The term retailer is also applied where a service provider services the needs of a large number of individuals, such as with telephone or electric power.
    IS Retail was original develop to meet specific needs of Retail industry where standard SD/MM cannot.
    - Significant functionality difference are:
    - Store specific features are built into IS Retail where as it is not in
    standard SD/MM.
    - Mass processing of pricing (some of the retail features were
    included as standard SAP as of 4.6)
    - Assortment handling is not in standard SAP
    There are other differences in inventory costing/valuation etc.
    Retail valuation only available in SAP Retail.
    What is known in the trade as the "retail inventory method" or the "retail method" involves valuating stocks at retail, often aggregated at merchandise category or departmental level.
    Both the cost method and the retail method can be used in SAP Retail.
    Actually IS-Retail is a combination of MM and SD plus other funtionalities speacially developed for the retail industry such as:
    Promotions
    Pricing
    Assortments
    Clasification
    Merchandise category
    Seasons
    Is important to mention that all the funtionality of MM and SD is avialable in SAP IS-Retail with some diferences in some transactions:
    Material master data (article in retail) has some diferences.
    Vendor master data.
    Site master data.
