Transfer of hours spent between projects

Hi,
We have a very simple setup of projects, through CJ2B where I'm trying to investigate a small business wish:
We would like to have the complete number of hours spent on a specific project to figure as a single operation on another project.
Basically I want the project manager to just see 1 operation in his/her project and not having to worry about structure or allocations of this "sub-project". ie a development project using a delivery center in another department without having to know or allocate the ressources there.
It this possible?
I've looked around a bit, and know that a lot of people talk about WBS Elements, but we dont use cost/budgetting on these projects, its simply to collect the hours spent on the projects.
Have anyone tried this?
Thanks in advance.
/Michael

My apollogies for not making my problem clear enough. I'll try to clarify with an example:
Project A consists of 4 operations, with a number of allocations:
<Project A - New system>
Scope
      - employee 1
      - employee 2
      - employee 3
Development
      - "Project B - Development"
Test
      - employee 1
      - employee 2
Implement
      - employee 1
      - employee 2
However the "development" operation is oursourced to another department and therefor the project manager should not worry about allocations on this operation. He just allocated the development project to the task.
From the development departments point of view they see their own project; Project B - Development with their own ressource allocations.
<Project B - Development >
Requirement
      - employee x
      - employee y
      - employee z
Development
      - employee x
      - employee y
Deliver
      - employee y
      - employee z
So now comes the project reporting:
- When Project B is asked to report hours spent of Project they pull the hours registered in CATS for their project.
- When Project A pulls hours registrered in Cats, is shows hours spent on Project A + Project B
Thus Project B and all of its operations is a sub project of Project A.
Is this possible to implement in PS? Or is it too tricky and should be handled manually by the reports?
It would surprise me, if no one has tried doing this before?

I can no longer drag photos in Aperture (within a project, between projects

I find that suddenly I cannot drag photos in Aperture. In other words, I cannot MOVE a photo at all, whether within a project or between projects and albums, &c. Not only this, but I cannot copy & paste either. I can still export photos, though.
I noticed this first a couple of hours ago when attempting to attach a photo into an email using the Mail application. It wouldn't budge. I thought it might have been a problem with the Mail program but no, it appears to be in Aperture because I then tried to drag the photo directly from Aperture into the email (which I've been doing for years).
I've done a rebuild and all that, yet the problem remains.
Any suggestions as to what I might do other than export the whole library to Lightroom and start learning all over again?

Can you confirm:
- that this is true for many Images? Try different Images in several Projects. If possible, try with an Image you had been able to drag-and-drop into Mail in the past.
- that you can't drag from a Project to an Album.
- that the Image you can't drag-and-drop has a Preview? ("Photos➞Update Preview")
What do you mean us to understand with the "and all that" part of "I've done a rebuild and all that, yet the problem remains"?

Hours spent on a WBS

HI all,
My company wants to input Hours spent by month somewhere in the WBS master record. Do you know where this can be done? I will also need 2 more fields where I can enter the Employee name and an ID.
Any help will be appreciated
thanks
Brian

Try OPS1, there are 6 fields you can use. They can be the type of text, quantity, date, and value.
Enter then this user defined fields to projet prfile OPSA...
Standart SAP explanation:
There are the following user-defined fields, defined in the R/3 System:
General text fields
You can use these fields to enter your own data, for example:
information on people responsible
information on substitutions/proxies
internal phone numbers
quantity fields and their units
You can also define formula parameters for quantity fields. The formula parameters are used in for example, work center formula calculation or network costing.
Value fields and their units
Date fields
You can use these fields to enter internal start data, for example.
Checkboxes
Here, you can enter information for analyses in the Information System.
The key words for the user-defined fields are determined by a key word ID.
Further notes
Please note that the contents of user-defined fields is not checked by the SAP System.
You can make your own enhancements (i.e. customer-specific functions) to the user-defined fields.
The enhancement CNEX0001 is available for you to do this in development class CN (application development R/3 PS Project management). Create a check of user-defined fields

Why does formatting get lost when copy and pasting slides between projects?

I'm beginning to copy and paste several slides from a project that was created in Captivate 6. I've opened the project in 7.0.1 and saved it. Next, I've copy and pasted about 20-30 slides from the old project into my new template. In the process, many slides have lost "bold" and "bullets". It's worth noting that many slides have remained correct. I also find myself having to reset slide templates and toggle off quiz buttons that I've already toggled off in old project.
This isn't part of the same problem, but related. When I copy slides from the new template I mentioned into the old one (in hopes that Advanced Actions would transfer correctly), I've noticed that none of the item names have transferred over with the copy and paste. Instead of seeing the button name I've created, it changes to "shape, text_caption, etc", the default.
I'm hoping the copy pasting between projects becomes more efficient, I'm finding myself burning unneccessary time doing more QA and microscopic investigation, although I suppose more QA isn't always a bad thing.
System is the following:
OSX 10.8.5
Captivate 7.0.1
Safari 6.0.5
Blood Type: oops, wrong forum.

When copy/pasting between different versions that has always been a problem, especially with question slides. There seem always to be changes that make such a transfer difficult. Did you try to open the CP6 project first in CP7 and see what worked? And do you use exactly the same theme (object styles, master slides, skin editor)?
Copy/paste slides, objects with advanced actions: bit same problem, works best if done between CP7 projects. The problem that each object needs to have a unique ID (name) is what causes the renaming to generic names.

Link between Project and Sales Order

Apart from sales order can we have a link between project and customer master ??
I know that WBS element assignment can be made in sales order but i want to have link between
customer master and project. I don't want any user field or text field in sales order.
Any idea ?
Regards
Ashish

Yes Mr Ashish!
As far as iam concern there is no link between Project & Customer Master, you have to link it with SALES order, I had check in XD03,XD01, the complete customer master, i didnt find any field in customer master which links with Project.
I'll let you know if i find any links.

File not found in Link Between Projects Window - test no edit rights to other file

Hi,
I am doing a test to see if i can create a link by typing the link path (f.i. <>\plan2\1) in the predecessor column without having edit rights to the other plan.
I expect this to be possible as the edit in the other plan (creation of link) is only done after the change is accepted through the LBP (link between projects) window. Besides, when i do it to both my own plans, in this LBP window i get 'create external
link' as difference to accept.
When I do it on Project Server 2010 to a plan I do not own or having edit rights on, I got the message 'file not found'.
Is this message related to what I am trying or does it have another cause?
Does someone know if what I want can be done?
Rgds
Sander

Hi Sander,
I confirm that for creating a link between projects, you need to have access in read-write to both files.
Indeed creating such a link will write in both files information about successors (in the source file) and predecessors (in the destination file).
Note that if you only need to update the successor, you don't need anymore to open in read-write mode the source file, since you won't write any more information in it.
Hope this helps.

Why can't I cut and paste photos between project?

I recently made the transition from iPhoto to Aperture. One of the weird things is that I can't cut and paste photos between projects. In iPhoto this is an easy way to organize your projects if some photos are in the wrong place.
You also can't split projects, in iPhoto you can do this easily. Say, if two day's photos ending being in the same project, in iPhoto there's a button that you split them in the middle. Is there something like this in Aperture?

Copy and Paste:
In iPhoto "copy and paste" was possible, because it was not possible in the early versions, to see both projects at the same time, the one you are moving from, and the one you are moving to.
In Aperture you simply drag from the source project to the destination project to move image versions around. Also, it is easy to see more than one project in the Browser at the same time, see: Aperture 3 User Manual: Working with Two or More Browsers Open
To drag to another project, select the images in the project, then drag to the other project in the source list, for example:
To split a project, select the images you want to have in the split part, then create a new project from these images: Enable the check mark "Move selected items to new project". This will split the original project.

How do I share a compound clip between projects?...

Hello everyone,
I have created a 10 second intro/title graphic clip in Motion and published it to FCPX. I have added this generator sequence to a project's timeline in FCPX. I then added a lower third title set. I have edited my text (font, style, etc) of my lower third text to where I want it. I then created a compound clip of the two parts (title generator and the lower third text element).
Now that it is dialed in, I need to be able to use it as a template for a series of videos I am working on. I can't seem to find a way to save it and make it availible to drop into other project sequences. I have tried to make a favourite out of the clip, I tried to copy and paste between projects (and into a new event)... nothing works fo rme.
What am I missing?
Any help is appreciated, thank you,
Shea A.J. Comfort

Hi Andy
Thank you for the advice.
I tried your method but there definitely seems to be a fault or glitch in my software. If I highlight a number of connected clips and audio tracks the program will not copy and paste them into the newly created compound clip in my event library.
I therefore decided to do it the slow ay and copy each individual item. This worked fine until I came to the final audio track. No matter how many times I copy this track Final Cut refuses to do this. It always comes up with the previous item I copied. I have retried this and it will copy all the items except one. As you would expect I have done a fair amount of work on this track in the form of equyalisation, a comnpression filter and numerous keyframes on the level to come out with a mix that I am happy with. I cannot however move it from the original project.
I find this totally unacceptable and consider the software to be unfit for purpose as a result. Unfortunately the apple terms and conditions state that all purchases are final and I have no recourse upon them for the fact that it does not work.
I cannot see how an update will fix a problem with my software that is not universal to all users. I believe that I can reinstall it without being charged again but am hesitant to do this for fear of losing the large amount of work that I have put into the project.
My only hope now is to ring the premium rate number for customer support in the unlikely hope that it can be solved this way.

Thanks for the reply.
For now assuming that you are using Premiere Elements 11, 12/12.1, or 13/13.1 on Windows 7, 8, or 8.1 64 bit....
I am not sure that Left and Right channel audio editing is the answer to your DVD echo issue, but the opportunities for audio channel editing in Premiere Elements would include (before burn to)
1. Audio Mixer - Balance.
2. fx Effects/Audio Effects
Please refer to https://helpx.adobe.com/premiere-elements/using/effects-reference.html#audio_effects
for explanations of the Audio Effects.....
Balance
Channel Volume
Left Fill, Right Fill
Invert
Swap Channels
And, there is the free audio editor, Audacity Audacity: Free Audio Editor and Recorder for channel editing.
Do you hear the echo before the burn to disc?
Is any of the Timeline video content from your cell phone? If so, did you have any issues with a variable frame rate when you were preparing the video in Edit area for burn to in Publish+Share?
What audio effects, if any, did you apply to the Timeline audio content prior to burn to?
Please consider.

Can you Share Scenes between projects?

Can you Share Scenes between projects?
I would like to take already created scenes and share them
between files and projects so multiple people can use them as a
resource. Can it be done?

Scenes are just for authoring convenience, they basically
blank frames giving an end to one
and beginning to another timeline so you can't actually
define scene like you could a movie clip.
What you can do however is to Copy frames by unlocking all
the layers, highlighting all the frames
and CTRL ALT C than open new file and paste the frames CTRL
ALT V
That's the only way to share the scene.

The Acrobat 9.x product family passed into "End of Support" mid-year of 2013.

For Office 2013 support you must use Acrobat XI (11.0.1) or newer.

Capture travel time expenses and working hours spent on the service call

Hi Experts,
I have One Year AMC contract with my customer.Under AMC he called me for 10 times.I need to
Capture travel time expenses and working hours spent on all the service call, Non of them will be billed to the customer.
This is just for our internal tracking.this particular data will reside within the office premises.
Explain how efficiently we can track this particular requirement in SAP Business One
Regards,
Vikram

Hi Vikram
You will notice on the item master records that there is a field called Item Type. The options are Item, Labor and Travel. In order for the service module to recognize the expense or charge type, either Labor or Travel must be select. Create a service item (untick inventory item) and choose the Item Type as Labor or Travel. When you now create a Delivery/Invoice from the expenses section of the service call, it will identify and warn you if you charge the customer, as this would be defined in your service contract template as non billable charges. You can still create a Delivery for the charges and put quantities and values on the Delivery document. In this case you are not going to invoice the customer for the charges, so you can "Close" the Delivery. Just be aware that closing the Delivery will post the value to an offset account defined in the Account Determination.
The benefit of this approach is that the Delivery will post a debit and credit in your G/L that will "accrue" what the costs are of servicing the customer. My suggestion would be to set the account determination for the Labor/Travel item(s) to item level and define the Revenue/Expense accounts to specific G/L accounts.
Let me know if you need more information or assistance with the above.
Kind regards

Importing Between Projects Takes FOREVERRRR

All I'm doing is copying a 3-minute clip from one project to another via the copy/paste options. It's been about 15 minutes and all I see is a dialog box that says Importing Files...Preparing. Trying to cancel the import or Force Quit iMovie has no effect. I guess this is the equivalent of a system hang.
Well, just finished import. It took about 20 minutes for a 3 minute cilp. Why? This makes no sense. iMovie 3 could import a 9-minute clip from another iMovie project in under 3 minutes. Upgrade my ***.

Note that Copying and Pasting clips from one project to another in iMovie 6 is a very different task than importing a file into iMovie 3. (For the sake of those who never used it, iMovie 3 didn't allow Copying and Pasting clips between projects. We had to import the clip's Media file stored in the Media folder of Project A to Project B.)
Because of the non-destructive editing features of iMovie 6, iMovie 6 copies the entire Media file of the clip, not just the clip itself. So if a 5-second clip that's part of a 3 minute file is Copied from Project A and Pasted into Project B, the entire file is copied to Project B. That's so the pasted clip inherits all the non-destructive editing features it had in Project A. (In Project B, you can restore the 5-second clip to 3 minutes it was in Project A.)
So if the 3 minute clip you Copied and Pasted was from a 30 minute file, the entire file was copied with it and it may take some time.
Importing a file is actually lots faster in iMovie 6 than iMovie 3. I just tested importing a 3 minute Media file from one iMovie 3 project to another. It took 56 seconds. In iMovie 6, importing the same file took just 15 seconds.
The difference may be that iMovie 6 is smart enough to recognize the file is a DV file, so instead of converting it to DV, it just duplicates the file, which is a lot faster.

Best way to transfer single point data between loops on FPGA

Hi,
    I used quite number of loops on FPGA and need to transfer single point datas between loops. Only the current value of data is needed so buffer is not necessary. I don't want use target scope FIFO since it require minimum 21 elements and I only need the current value. Is there other way other than local variables?
    Thanks for help!
    Regards,
   Tom

Hi Godel,
Since this discussion thread is over 3 years old, it would be better to start a new thread with your specific questions to get quicker help.
I did a bit of research on your question, and found this helpful White Paper (http://www.ni.com/white-paper/7727/en/) that discusses the resources used for components in LV FPGA code. For local variables (although it depends on hardware), it looks like it uses Flip-flops and LUTs.
As for using local variables with different clock rates, I found this KnowledgeBase article that might help shed some light on your question - some issues can arise from using them with more than one clock rate (http://digital.ni.com/public.nsf/allkb/C683585460E88508862570D1006B7434)
Hope this helps! Again, if you have follow-up questions, I would definitely recommend creating a new thread
