Student need details about Business One prices.

Hi
I'm a german student and i have to do a project about SAP Business One. It's necessary for me to get more informations about the prices for this ERP software. I've searched the I-net for many days but couldn't find any helpfull informations.
I need detail informations about asset costs, follow-up costs, license fees, costs for training the employers to handle the software and maintenance costs. If anybody can help me about that i will be very glad.
greetings, daniel

Well, first thing is the pricing is dependant on the country or at least the region you are buying B1 from. For example in Europe you could buy a SAP B1 license for 2500 euros when in Australia you can buy it for AUD2500 (FX rate 0.62).
The price is based on the market, the performance, the index of investment etc.
You also have to differenciate in your analysis the cost of licenses and the cost of implementing. Some partners are using a rule of thumb saying that the cost of implementation is roughly the cost of one license. I tend not to agree with it but that's a base I guess.

Need details about "Lock Profiling" tab of JRockit JRA

Hi,
I'm experimenting with the JRockit JRA tool: I think this is a very useful tool ! It provides very valuable information.
About locks ("Lock Profiling" tab), since JRockit manages locks in a very sophisticated manneer, it enables to get very important information about which monitors are used by the application, helping for improving the performances.
Nevertheless, the BEA categories (thin/fat, uncontended/contended, recursive, after sleep) are not so clear. A short paper explaining what they mean would greatly help.
Fat contended monitors cost the most, but maybe 10000 thin uncontended locks cost the same as 1 fat contended lock does. We don't know.
So, there is a lack of information about the cost (absolute: in ms, or relative: 1 fat lock costs as N thin locks) of each kind of monitor. This information would dramaticaly help people searching where improvements of lock management are required in their application.
Thanks,
Tony

great explanation! Thanks

About thin, fat, recursive and contended locks in JRockit:
Let's start with the easiest part: recursive locks. A recursive lock
occurs in the following scenario:synchronized(foo) { // first time thread takes lock
synchronized(foo) { // this time, the lock is taken recursively
}The recursive lock taking may also occur in a method call several levels
down - it doesn't matter. Recursive locks are not neccessarily any sign of
bad programming, at least not if the recursive lock taking is done by a
separate method.
The good news is that recursive lock taking in JRockit is extremely fast.
In fact, the cost to take a lock recursively is almost negligable. This is
regardless if the lock was originally taken as a thin or a fat lock
(explained in detail below).
Now let's talk a bit about contention. Contention occurs whenever a thread
tries to take a lock, and that lock is not available (that is, it is held
by another thread). Let me be clear: contention ALWAYS costs in terms of
performance. The exact cost depends on many factors. I'll get to some more
details on the costs later on.
So if performance is an issue, you should strive to avoid contention.
Unfortunately, in many cases it is not possible to avoid contention -- if
you're application requires several threads to access a single, shared
resource at the same time, contention is unavoidable. Some designs are
better than others, though. Be careful that you don't overuse
synchronized-blocks. Minimize the code that has to be run while holding a
highly-contended lock. Don't use a single lock to protect unrelated
resources, if that lock proves to be easily contended.
In principle, that is all you can do as an application developer: design
your program to avoid contention, if possible. There are some experimental
flags to change some of the JRockit locking behaviour, but I strongly
discourage anyone from using these. The default values is carefully
trimmed, and changing this is likely to result in worse, rather than
better, performance.
Still, I understand if you're curious to what JRockit is doing with your
application. I'll give some more details about the locking strategies in
JRockit.
All objects in Java are potential locks (monitors). This potential is
realized as an actual lock as soon as any thread enters a synchronized
block on that object. When a lock is "born" in this way, it is a kind of
lock that is known as a "thin lock". A thin lock has the following
characteristics:
* It requires no extra memory -- all information about the lock is stored
in the object itself.
* It is fast to take.
* Other threads that try to take the lock cannot register themselves as
contending.
The most costly part of taking a thin lock is a CAS (compare-and-swap)
operation. It's an atomic instruction, which means as far as CPU
instructions goes, it is dead slow. Compared to other parts of locking
(contention in general, and taking fat locks in specific), it is still
very fast.
For locks that are mostly uncontended, thin locks are great. There is
little overhead compared to no locking, which is good since a lot of Java
code (especially in the class library) use lot of synchronization.
However, as soon as a lock becomes contended, the situation is not longer
as obvious as to what is most efficient. If a lock is held for just a very
short moment of time, and JRockit is running on a multi-CPU (SMP) machine,
the best strategy is to "spin-lock". This means, that the thread that
wants the lock continuously checks if the lock is still taken, "spinning"
in a tight loop. This of course means some performance loss: no actual
user code is running, and the CPU is "wasting" time that could have been
spent on other threads. Still, if the lock is released by the other
threads after just a few cycles in the spin loop, this method is
preferable. This is what's meant by a "contended thin lock".
If the lock is not going to be released very fast, using this method on
contention would lead to bad performance. In that case, the lock is
"inflated" to a "fat lock". A fat lock has the following characteristics:
* It requeries a little extra memory, in terms of a separate list of
threads wanting to acquire the lock.
* It is relatively slow to take.
* One (or more) threads can register as queueing for (blocking on) that
lock.
A thread that encounters contention on a fat lock register itself as
blocking on that lock, and goes to sleep. This means giving up the rest of
its time quantum given to it by the OS. While this means that the CPU will
be used for running real user code on another thread, the extra context
switch is still expensive, compared to spin locking. When a thread does
this, we have a "contended fat lock".
When the last contending thread releases a fat lock, the lock normally
remains fat. Taking a fat lock, even without contention, is more expensive
than taking a fat lock (but less expensive than converting a thin lock to
a fat lock). If JRockit believes that the lock would benefit from being
thin (basically, if the contention was pure "bad luck" and the lock
normally is uncontended), it might "deflate" it to a thin lock again.
A special note regarding locks: if wait/notify/notifyAll is called on a
lock, it will automatically inflate to a fat lock. A good advice (not only
for this reason) is therefore not to mix "actual" locking with this kind
of notification on a single object.
JRockit uses a complex set of heuristics to determine amongst other
things:
* When to spin-lock on a thin lock (and how long), and when to inflate it
to a fat lock on contention.
* If and when to deflate a fat lock back to a thin lock.
* If and when to skip on the fairness on a contended fat lock to improve
performance.
These heuristics are dynamically adaptive, which means that they will
automatically change to what's best suited for the actual application that
is being run.
Since the switch beteen thin and fat locks are done automatically by
JRockit to the kind of lock that maximizes performance of the application,
the relative difference in performance between thin and fat locks
shouldn't really be of any concern to the user. It is impossible to give a
general answer to this question anyhow, since it differs from system to
system, depending on how many CPU:s you have, what kind of CPU:s, the
performance on other parts of the system (memory, cache, etc) and similar
factors. In addition to this, it is also very hard to give a good answer
to the question even for a specific system. Especially tricky is it to
determine with any accuracy the time spent spinning on contended thin
locks, since JRockit loops just a few machine instuctions a few times
before giving up, and profiling of this is likely to heavily influence the
time, giving a skewed image of the performance.
To summarize:
If you're concerned about performance, and can change your program to
avoid contention on a lock - then do so. If you can't avoid contention,
try to keep the code needed to run contended to a minimum. JRockit will
then do whatever is in its power to run your progam as fast as possible.
Use the lock information provided by JRA as a hint: fat locks are likely
to have been contended much or for a long time. Put your effort on
minimizing contention on them.

Do we need a SAP Business One & Business Objects Forum?

Hi all,
We have made the Crystal Reports Add-on for SAP Business One available in the [Knowledge Center|https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/sdn/businessone?rid=/webcontent/uuid/807d22cb-cb1d-2b10-8794-fb76d7feca88]
For all discussions arround SAP Business One and the new Add-On Crystal Reports we have at the moment one [Thread|SAP Business One and Crystal Reports; with very high contribution.
So we would like to ask you, if a new Forum is needed and if yes where to put it (beneath the SAP Business One Forums or the Business Objects Forums)?
Thanks for your feedback,
Richard and Darius

Richard/Darius,
Having experience both SAP Business One and Business Objects, I would suggest that all reporting aspects of Crystal Reports should stay in Business Objects Forum.
I would still agree to create a sub-forum for Crystal Reports in SAP Business One, as long as the topics are more of the integration of Crystal Reports with SAP B1.

Need details about messageName

I am using the following code to display a confirm message, once a new record inserted. This a program from the Tool Box tutorial.
MessageToken[] tokens = { new MessageToken("EMP_NAME", employeeName),
new MessageToken("EMP_NUMBER", employeeNum) };
OAException confirmMessage = new OAException("AK", "FWK_TBX_T_EMP_CREATE_CONFIRM", tokens,
OAException.CONFIRMATION, null);
pageContext.putDialogMessage(confirmMessage);
This is working fine. But I could not understand what are these values "AK" and "FWK_TBX_T_EMP_CREATE_CONFIRM". Do we need to configure these any where in the code?
Please give me the details about this?

Please see
<JDEV_CLIENT_INSTALL_DIR>/jdevdoc/javadoc/fwk/oracle/apps/fnd/framework/OAException.html#OAException(java.lang.String, java.lang.String, oracle.apps.fnd.common.MessageToken[], byte, java.lang.Exception[])
The arguments are "Application Short Name", "Message Name".
You would need to define the message in FND Message Dictionary.
