The best method to accept incomplete PO's

Hi SAP Community,
I have come across and interesting conundrum and was wondering if you have a best practice (solution).
Occasionally we place a PO with a vendor knowing that he cannot complete the order with the plan of completing in house, or we request it in early as it is a rush job and need to complete in house. Naturally therefore we have issues with our process for incomplete PO's, when it come to good-in, inspection and stores.
Is there a standard practice for this situation or methodology to address this problem?
Kind Regards,
Ryan

Hi,
How can you order something to a vendor which you already plan to make inhouse.
The best practice would be to plan how much quantity the vendor can deliver in the stipulated time.
Make a PO for that quantity and if yourequire to short close then make "Delivery completed " indicator in PO line item.
Regards
Binoy

  • What is the best method for backing up photos in IPhoto?

    I have over 10,000 photos in IPhoto and am looking for the best method for doing a backup (or an archive?).  I'm now using ICloud and it appears it's just photo streaming and does not have storage capability. External hard drive, copying to a DVD, other suggestions?

    Most Simple Back Up
    Drag the iPhoto Library from your Pictures Folder to another Disk. This will make a copy on that disk.
    Slightly more complex:
    Use an app that will do incremental back ups. This is a very good way to work. The first time you run the back up the app will make a complete copy of the Library. Thereafter it will update the back up with the changes you have made. That makes subsequent back ups much faster. Many of these apps also have scheduling capabilities: So set it up and it will do the back up automatically. Examples of such apps: Chronosync or DejaVu . But are many others. Search on MacUpdate
    My Routine
    My Library lives on my iMac. It’s Backed up to  two external hard disks every day. These disks are permanently attached to the iMac. These back ups run automatically. One is done by Time Machine, one is a bootable back up done by SuperDuper
    It’s also backed up to a portable hard disk when ever new photos are added. This hard disk lives in my car. For security, this disk is password protected.
    I have a second off-site back up at a relative’s house across town. That’s updated every 3 or 4 months.
    My Photos are backed up online. There are many options: Flickr, Picasa, SmugMug etc. However, check the terms of your account carefully. While most sites have free uploading, you will often find that these uploads are limited in terms of the file size or the bandwidth you can use per month. For access that allows you to upload full size pics with no restrictions you may need to pay.
    Every couple of months I test the back ups to make sure they are working correctly. It’s very easy to mis-configure a back up application, and the only way to protect against that is to do a trial restore.

  • What is the best method of backing up my digital files (catalog) in the Photoshop Elements Organizer

    What is the best method or service for backing up my digital files (catalog) in the Organizer from Photoshop Elements 12. Since there no longer is  the automatic  Elements sync available I do not know what to choose. I have tried to back this up using my external drive, but I cannot find the digital images per se. I see the entire program but not the catalog of pictures. Also, I have a windows operating system and Adobe  Revel offers no edit capabilities with this OS.

    I'm in a similar situation including movies I've purchased from iTunes...
    Here's my setup:
    I have all my iTunes data (music, movies, etc.) as well as about 10 GB of photos stored on a nework storage device that uses RAID-5 with SATA disks. This is basically a little toaster-sized NAS machine with four hard drives in it (www.infrant.com). If one of these drives dies, I get alerted and can insert a new one without missing a beat since the data is stored redundantly across all drives. I can also just yank out any one of the four drives while the thing is running and my data is still safe (I tried this after I bought it as a test).
    That's how I prevent problems with a single disk... Redundancy
    Now onto "backups"...
    Nightly, my little RAID toaster automatically backs itself up to an attached 250GB USB drive. However, these backups are only of my critical data... documents, photos and home movies... I don't bother backing up my "Hollywood" movies since I can live without them in a disaster.
    ... I actually don't permanently store anything I care about on a laptop or a desktop. It all goes on the NAS box (Network Sttached Storage) and then my other computers use it as a network drive. It's attached via Gigbait to my main computer and via wireless to most everything else.
    My achilles heel is that I don't store anything outside of my house yet. If I was smart, I'd alternate two USB drives attached to my NAS box and always keep one of them somewhere else (Safe Deposit Box?).
    ...and that's just one way to do it.

  • What is the best method to store session variables

    As the title says, what is the best method to store session
    variables in a Production environment?
    I have been reading the posts on sessions and have been
    getting different ideas on where to store session variables, in a
    db, registery, cookies etc etc
    Can someone clarify possible best practice on this matter?
    Matrix

    From my experience, db is the best to store client variable
    data. Registry will cause you trouble in future (when data gets
    overloaded) and cookies will not serve the purpose for a few % of
    your users.

  • What is the best method for moving iTune Libraries from Old to New Computer

    Hello,
    Thanks in advance for any assistance you may offer.
    My Sony Vaio Desktop recently died and untimely death, so I just purchased an HP Notebook. I was trying to wait out the release of the possible update of the Macbook line. However the old computer didn't agree. This HP will tie me over till a new release.
    I've been doing weekly backups for over 3 years with a backup drive from Western Digital. At this point I just want to transfer my music in iTunes and applications from the App store that are loaded on to my iPod Touch into the new computer and then reauthorize and sync.
    My question is what's the best method. Oh another problem I'm having includes the latest iPhone & iPod Touch software problem of 3rd party apps not working along with the vanishing of my music on the Touch.
    Any guidance would be much appreciated.

    Open up a fresh copy of iTunes. Point iTunes in the direction of your Western Digital Harddrive. Import Folders.
    1. New Copy
    2. Edit -> Preferences -> Advanced -> General -> Change -> <the address of the iTunes library on WD>
    3. File -> Add Folder to Library -> <Select iTunes folder on WD>
    Always keep a backup of your iTunes Library file and the iTunes XML Document. If you have those, then it might be just as simple as copying those to your iTunes file folder. If you are not sure where they are, then do a search for iTunes.xml.

  • What is the best method to provide an option to select "All" for LOV ?

    Some posts sugest that you should "UNION" the origional select with something like (select "all" from dual ) this works as a seperate query but if you want to use and existintg query this is not very clean as viewlinks are not taken into account. We could also pass back an array list and include the all option in the list but that gets away from having the client use the iterator in the pagedef for other requirments of the page.
    Whats the best way to approach this with the new features in 11g?

  • What is the best method to revert back to 'golden' image of database

    Hello,
    I want to have a 'golden' image of my test database. What is the best method to keep reverting back to this 'golden' image after testers are done with testing. What I mean is I want to set up a test database for testers. Testers can insert,update, delete on objects as they like. But after the testers have completed their testing, I want to revert the database back to the 'golden' image. This 'golden' image is the state of the database before testers perform their tests. I need to revert back to the 'golden' image many times over as we have to perform many different tests.
    I thought about export and import (9i database) but takes 6 hours, too long. I tried using rman and was successful the first time, (set until time; restore database; recover database; open resetlogs;). The seconde time using rman, I got error saying the set until time was before the resetlogs time. I think I would have to restore the control file before the resetlog time frame before I can recover to the set until time, again.
    What is a straight forward method to have a 'golden' image so I can keep on restoring back to it? This database is a test 9i database and it is in archive log mode but it doesn't need to be. I just need a best practice method, whether it is rman, exp/imp, manual backup/restore? Something I can use time and time over again. Thank you.

    If it is a Test envionment, can you just take a COLD Backup (database files
    plus control files) ? How big is the database ? What platform is it on ?
    eg in a COLD Backup
    a. If using a script, run multiple "cp" (or cpio/tar) commands in parallel to
    copy different database files
    b. If using RMAN (in NOMOUNT), use multiple Chnanels.
    Note : Remember to include ControlFile Backups and Restores as well.

    Hello:
    You pretty much have it right. Here's what I do to move applications between APEX installations.
    1) Export/Import Workspaces
    2) Export/Import Applications for each workspace. (I retain the source application id in the target)
    3) Export/Import Workspace Images/Files etc
    4) Use Oracle exp/imp , Oracle DataPump or plain old sqlplus scripts to move database objects from source to target.

  • What is the best method for multiple language interface?

    Hi,
    I need to adapt my CVI application to multiple languages.  But I have to be able to do this on the fly.  The Localizer is great for all the panel objects and this works great.  But I was wondering what the best method is for all the dialog box text?  Right now I'm using const char defines for the text. For exampl:
    const char *CONST_NO_STRING         = "No";
    Is there a simple method, or best practice method, to load different language dialog text at run time or on the fly?
    Thanks,
    Andy

    Not sure if Andy's original concern was settled... but let's try and button this up:
    - The UI Localizer does use a text file with manually-written translated strings for each supported language
    - From the Localizer help: this will only aid in translating the panel labels.
    Use this instrument driver to easily display user interfaces in different languages. When loading a panel or menu bar, you can specify a language file that contains translations for all the labels on the panel and all the menu items. You can create different language files for the user interfaces by translating them with the User Interface Localizer utility (localui.exe).
    - If you have additional content to be translated (like the text inside a drop down box), manually loading from .lwl, or similar, files and programmatically setting those dialog box entries would be the solution. - Looks like CVI should handle multibyte languages just fine (see below), though I have never used them.

  • What is the best method for writing Multicolum​n List data to a text file?

    I am trying to find the best method for writing the data from a multicolumn list to a text file. Say the list has 7 rows and 6 columns of data. I would like the final file to have the data resemble the Multicolumn List as closely as possible with or without column headers. A sample VI showing how to accomplish this would be greatly appreciated. I realize this is pretty basic stuff, but I can get the output to the file, but it comes out with duplicate data and I am on a time crunch hense my request for help.
    Thank You,

  • What is the best method for saving files off of the hard drive?

    I would like to save music files and photos somewhere other than my hard drive (eg. CDs, DVDs, zip disks). What is the best method for doing this?

    It rather depends on how paranoid you are
    External hard drives protect you from hard disk trouble on your machine.
    Optical media (CD's, DVD's) protect you from trouble with magnetic disks - such as external hard drives and the HD in your machine. Optical disks are thought to be more reliable that magnetic disks for long term storage.
    Off site back-ups will protect you from fire or theft at your home or office.
    How paranoid are you? Personally everything is backed up across three diferent external HD's. And maybe twice a year I burn a copy of my photos onto DVDs and they go to a relative's house across town.
