Upgrade Billing Schedules from 11.5.9 to 11.5.10

Hi,
I need to take care of an extension in an upgrade project from 11.5.9 to 11.5.10, it uses an API OKS_BILL_SCH.Create_Bill_Sch_Rules.
But the IN parameter that was passed to the API i.e StreamLvl_Type was changed from 11.5.9 to 11.5.10.
In 11.5.10, it looks like:
TYPE StreamLvl_Type Is Record
id number,
CHR_ID Number,
CLE_ID Number,
DNZ_CHR_ID Number,
Sequence_no Number,
uom_code Varchar2 (3),
start_date Date,
end_date date,
level_periods Number,
uom_per_period Number,
advance_periods Number,
level_amount Number,
invoice_offset_days Number,
interface_offset_days Number,
comments Varchar2 (240),
due_ARR_YN Varchar2 (1),
AMOUNT Number,
LINES_DETAILED_YN Varchar2 (1),
Rule_Information1 Varchar2 (450),
Rule_Information2 Varchar2 (450),
Rule_Information3 Varchar2 (450),
Rule_Information4 Varchar2 (450),
Rule_Information_Category Varchar2 (90),
Object1_Id1 Varchar2 (40)
In 11.5.9, it looks like:
TYPE StreamLvl_Type Is Record
Rule_Id Number,
Rule_Information1 Varchar2 (450),
Rule_Information2 Varchar2 (450),
Rule_Information3 Varchar2 (450),
Rule_Information4 Varchar2 (450),
Rule_Information5 Varchar2 (450),
Rule_Information6 Varchar2 (450),
Rule_Information7 Varchar2 (450),
Rule_Information8 Varchar2 (450),
Rule_Information9 Varchar2 (450),
Rule_Information10 Varchar2 (450),
Rule_Information11 Varchar2 (450),
Rule_Information12 Varchar2 (450),
Rule_Information13 Varchar2 (450),
Rule_Information14 Varchar2 (450),
Rule_Information15 Varchar2 (450),
Rule_Information_Category Varchar2 (90),
Object1_Id1 Varchar2 (40),
Object1_Id2 Varchar2 (200),
Object2_Id1 Varchar2 (40),
Object2_Id2 Varchar2 (200),
Object3_Id1 Varchar2 (40),
Object3_Id2 Varchar2 (200),
Jtot_Object1_Code Varchar2 (30),
Jtot_Object2_Code Varchar2 (30),
Jtot_Object3_Code Varchar2 (30) );
But my extension in 11.5.9 is making use of the 11.5.9 pl/sql structure ie. rule_id, rule_information6..rule_information15 which are not available in 11.5.10.
Can anybody suggest me, how to handle those missing values like rule_id, ..rule_information15. in 11.5.10.
Thank You,
Madan

Some of the information in rule groups was moved to tables. Stream info being some of it. Check the query below. I think I got it from tracing the form. It has been a while since I looked at this
SELECT le.date_start date_start,
le.date_end date_end,
le.id id,
le.amount amount ,
le.date_revenue_rule_start date_revenue_rule_start,
le.date_receivable_gl date_receivable_gl,
le.date_transaction date_transaction,
nvl(le.date_to_interface,sysdate) date_to_interface,
le.date_due date_due,
le.date_completed date_completed,
le.rul_id rul_id,
le.date_print date_print,
le.sequence_number sequence_number,
str.uom_code advance_period,
str.uom_per_period tuom_per_period,
str.start_date tp_start_date
FROM oks_stream_levels_b str
,oks_level_elements le
WHERE le.cle_id = /*line id here*/
AND le.rul_id = str.id
AND le.date_completed IS NULL
AND trunc(nvl(le.date_to_interface,sysdate)) <= trunc(to_date('21-SEP-06'))
AND le.date_start > nvl(to_date('25-SEP-07'), to_date('0001/01/01 00:00:01','YYYY/MM/DD HH24:MI:SS'))
ORDER BY le.date_start;

I have been using iCloud since it came out to coordinate my schedules from my phone, ipad and Mac laptop. Last week they stopped synching...I can't upgrade b/c of memory. Could this cause the problem?

I have been using iCloud since it came out to coordinate my schedules from my phone, ipad and Mac laptop. Last week they stopped synching...I can't upgrade past OS 5.1.1. b/c of memory (1st generation iPad and iPhone 4s). Could this cause the problem after the release of the new OS?

Welcome to the Apple Community.
First check that all your settings are correct, that calendar syncing is checked on all devices (system preferences > iCloud on a mac and settings > iCloud on a iPhone, iPad or iPod).
Make sure the calendars you are using are in your 'iCloud' account and not an 'On My Mac', 'On My Phone' or other non iCloud account (you can do this by clicking/tapping the calendar button in the top left corner of the application ), non iCloud calendars will not sync.
If you are sure that everything is set up correctly and your calendars are in the iCloud account, you might try unchecking calendar syncing in the iCloud settings, restarting your device and then re-enabling calendar syncing settings.

Service Contracts Billing Schedule Creation Error

Hi,
I have a requirement of creating service contracts from back-end for which I am using the oks_contracts_pub.create_contract_header, create_service_line, and create_bill_schedule. I am creating my contracts with active status and renewal type of EVN (Header level), FUL(Line Level). My contract is of type subscription. The contract header and line are creating fine but the Bill schedule API is throwing an UNEXPECTED ERROR. The billing schedules need to be created based on accounting rule which can be quarterly or monthly. I have included the bill schedule code (hard coded values) for review. Any help is greatly appreciated.
Also the version I am working on is R12

Changing Billing Schedule Level for OM originated Service Contracts

Hi,
When we create a Service Contract from Order Management, the Billing Schedule Level is always set to Top Level and only one Billing Stream gets created.
Can we get the Billing Schedule Level changed to other Levels viz., Equal Amount or Covered Level using any setups.
Has anyone did any customization/extension to be able to change the Billing Schedule Level.
The basic requirement is to have multiple billing streams for the contract, created from Order Management.
Gurus, any ideas/suggestions to get this accomodated.

Sid,
I don't think you are on the right track (in my opinion). You are right that we can only create service contract from the order management (service or Extended Warranty Lines).
If I understood correctly, you sell electronic subscriptions (like my internet service I have at home) and you are looking for way to take it from the order management so that you can bill it from Contracts and not from OM. As this is electronic service, looks like you do not have fulfill any tangible product (like magazines) from contracts. Hence you do not care about the schedule for the contract shipments. Is that correct?
As this is not something Oracle offers (I did not find anyway), you may want to consider extending OM workflow or a batch program to create a subscription contract once the order line is fulfilled (not the program where we create service contract). This way you have flexibility to create the contract the way you want it.
But you can always create a service contract covering a subscription item as covered product. Like I have internet service as subscription but they cover me for any incidental visits of technicians for this subscription charging me some amount every month.
Thanks

Iam currently using Quicken for Mac 2007. Can I upgrade my os from 10.6.8 to 10.9

Eric:
You are more trusting of "waiting" for Intuit to live up to their promises than I am!
From Baltwo's quoted article:
This happened when Lion released and Apple decided to remove Rosetta which was a software tool to allow old software to run on the new Intel based Macs. It took a bunch of developers 8 months to get 2007 working again on Lion even though they didn’t add any new features.
Intuit had six years notice that Rosetta was a temporary solution to its PPC versions of Quicken, yet waited until Apple finally removed Rosetta from Lion before instituting its programming for an Intel version!?!
This is very consistent with their history of how they treat their Mac customers relative to their Windows customers...
Morale of the story... don't wait! For $15, start using Quicken now.

TS1363 I was upgrading iPhone OS from 5.1 to 5.1.1 on Win 7 using iTunes 10.6.1.7. The iPhone hung. It is no longer visible by iTunes on Win 7

While upgrading iPhone OS from 5.1 to 5.1.1 on Win 7 using iTunes 10.6.1.7, the iPhone hung. I could not get iTunes to find it and Win 7 does not see it.
When I connect the iPhone to the USB, Win 7 issues the welcome sound, but that is it. The same happens when I disconnect iPhone.
The Devise Manager has the Apple Mobile Device USB Driver correct without any problem. I updated this driver called usbaapl64.
The iPhone is still hung.
I restarted the iPod service
I restarted the Apple Mobile Device Service
I tried to empty and delete the temp directory in C:\users\myname\AppData\Local\ but could not
The iTunes I am using is the latest version
I updated the Apple Mobile Device Driver as stated above correctly
The iPhone is still hung and is not recognized by Win 7 or iTunes, so I cannot restore the OS to the previous working version
What else can I do to restore the previous working OS on my iPhone 4

I was connecting the iPhone 4 to a USB 3.0 port. I was told by Apple Express Support (at US$29.99) not to use USB 3.0 and to use USB 2.1 instead.
If you are connecting your iPhone to the computer using a USB 3.0 port, disconnect it immediately. iPhones will lock up if you try to update while using a connection through a USB 3.0 port.
Disconnect the iPhone from the computer
Go to Device Manager and find the connected USB port. Click the mouse right button and update the driver
Shut the iPhone by pressing the sleep button and the home button concurrently for some time
Move the USB cable to a USB 2.1 port or older without the iPhone.
Restart iTunes.
Connect the iPhone
Your computer should recognize the phone and reloads the correct USB 2.1 driver (Apple Mobile Device)
Then iTunes should recognize the iPhone and starts reloading the firmware.
When that is complete it may ask if you wish to restore, naturally you say YES
iTunes will restore the iOS
Using iTunes, restore the latest backup to get your data back.
When all of the above is completed. Start enjoying your iPhone.
If the above does not work. Throw your iPhone out of the window and get a replacement Android phone.

I upgraded MacbookPro 2009 from 10.6.8 to Yosemite 2 weeks ago. My iphoto is now a nightmare. i went to our local apple retailer but they could not help either. Perhaps someone can help. Beforehand the OS upgrade I made a backup copy of my Iphoto library onto an external hard drive. Lets call it BU with 50GB. I also deleted half of my photos from the default library on my laptop, lets call it DE, now with about 20GB, to gain space. I then upgraded to Yosemite.
I have also installed since a long time Iphoto Library Manager 3.8.6. (this may be the cause of the problem as it was not upgraded and perhaps thus not compatible with iphoto 9.6 which I have now after the upgrade to Yosemite) It all worked fine before the upgrade, switching in iphoto between the two libraries DE and BU.
It also worked fine after the upgrade for a few days. At one stage Iphoto asked me to upgrade the iphoto version as it otherwise could not read the photos when I tried to load the BU library into iphoto. I did click yes to upgrade iphoto. As a result I became a brand new but totally empty library, no photos.
BU was still on the external disc, however the "Master" file was empty. We fortunately discovered all photos were in another file called Old Master, also under BU. We made another copy of the Old Master file onto the external disc. Lucky we did, because shortly afterwards we could not open anymore the BU file thus had no access to anything in there. Now I have 17000 photos in a file called Old Master on my external disc and another smaller library DE on my laptop. When I tried to import the photos from Old Master into a new iphoto library it was very messy. All events dates were mixed up, many photos were imported twice. I have no idea whether all my 17000 photos have been imported.
Can anyone suggest what is the most time efficient way? How do I best import my 17000 into a new library ensuring I don't loose any in the process. I do not wish sorting through 17000 photos for a week or so. Shall i also get a new iphoto library version now? Thank you for anything that may work.

Yes, the Old Master file has a folder for each year where I find all photos from that specific year. I am attaching a screen shot of the file.
In the meantime i have managed to download all photos (it did not download any video files though in mpg, avi, 3gp, m4v,mp4 and mov format) to a new iphoto library. Unfortunately the photos are quite mixed and often doubled up. I ma considering to purchase iphoto library which checks all duplicates in iphoto. this will save me a lot of time. What do you think?

4. what should i know that my card support version 9.8? In my idea, i think it should be support but i may need confirm or information from this before. (my card have OSC-CSM, OPT-PRE, AD-2C, MXP-10DME and TCCP2)
5. Have any interrupt between upgrade ? and Is it upgrade in each TCCP2? because that may help when card reset or reboot. And the traffic still flow to another TCC2P.
Thanks

1. I try to using your upgrade tool, my ONS15454 is SDH version 7.0 so, I can choose only 9.3 for destination version. It means that i must to upgrade to 9.3 first and then go to 9.6 and 9.8, Correct?
yes it is true you go directly to 9.3.0, it is not a multi-shelf node.
please be sure that your software version is 7.0.0.
So upgrade path is 7.0.0 to 9.3.0
2. Is it possible to upgrade without downtime ? as my understand that ONS15454 have 2 site (east and west), Can i do upgrade east site before west site? and when finish upgrade east site and go to upgrade west site after that, can i ?
becase as i understand when finish upgrade per site all card in that site will reboot, so, i think that another site will take the traffic without downtime. I don't sure that i am correct or not if you have any mention please let's me know
no not possible without downtime,
there will be a traffic hit or 10seconds or less than that, it you are using MXP_MR_2.5G cards without Y-cable protection. same for GE_XP cards there will be a traffic loss for few seconds.
yes you can upgrade east node and after that upgrdae west node, but not like doing upgrade to 9.8 for one node and another still on 7.0
3. I don't have multishelf, i just have one shelf per site
4. I have plan to upgrade to customer soon, but i may need to give a plan for them. But right now, i may confuse about the way and solution to upgrade that include how and impact to upgrade.
1. There will be a traffic impact on MXP and GE_XP card for less than 10 seconds.
2. If MXP client ports are y-cable provisioned, than upgrade will be error less, in case of Y-cable protection just lock protection before proceeding to upgrade.
3. traffic will impact as MXP cards have to do FPGA upgrade also and for this they will take a reboot, but in case of y-cable other card is taking over.
4. As you have TCC2P card, so always select lite versions, if its SDH than SDH-DWDM.
5. also if possible, arrange spare TCC2P card, atleast one at each site, just to be on safe side.
6. here is the path which you have to follow:
7.0.0 to 9.3.0
9.3.0 to 9.6.0
9.6.0 to 9.8.0
also please feel free to reach for any queries.

I have upgraded Apple Aperture from version 2 to version 3 and I'm having a problem with the "Highlights and Shadows" adjustment. According to the user's manual, I should have access to an advanced disclosure triangle which would allow me to adjust mid contrast, colour, radius, high tonal width and low tonal width.
If anyone has any suggestions as to how to access this advanced section, I'd be most grateful.

Hi David-
The advanced adjustments in the Highlights & Shadows tool were combined into the "Mid Contrast" slider in Aperture 3.3 and later. If you have any images in your library that were processed in a version of Aperture before 3.3, there will be an Upgrade button in the Highlights & Shadows tool in the upper right, and the controls you asked about under the Advanced section. Clicking the Upgrade button will re-render the photo using the new version of Highlights & Shadows, and the Advanced section will be replaced with the new Mid Contrast slider. With the new version from 3.3 you probably don't need the Advanced slider, but if you want to use the older version you can download it from this page:

Hi all,
We have recently upgraded our rpd from 10g to 11g. And a part of Webcatlog is being upgraded. We observe issues with the upgraded reports.
As the for the report prompts the script was taking lot of time. And the browser pop's a message either to 'stop' or 'continue'.
The report is taking lot of time to run than the usual 10g environment. And the path BP1 is also applied for the 11g environment.
Please suggest a troubleshoot method to overcome the issues with the upgraded reports.
Thank you,

I just upgraded my iPad from 4.3.3 to the newest - I think 6.1.3. I cannot find my photos and videos. I tried a restore, but after 3 hours, it's timing out. Pardon my ignorance on asking this question; but is there a way to find my photos?

I just upgraded my iPad from 4.3.3 to the newest - I think 6.1.3. I cannot find my photos and videos. I tried a restore, but after 3 hours, it's timing out. Pardon my ignorance on asking this question; but is there a way to find my photos? I do nto care about anythign else.
Here are the steps I though I took this morning:
Backup iPad
Connect to iTunes and downlaod newest version of iTunes and then newest iOS
restart Vista Laptop
upgrade to newest iOS
I knew somethign was wrong when it took about 6 hours to upgrade the iPad
at the end it errored with this message error (-50), but the upgrade worked
I was expecting to see all my photos but didn't see them
I have tried a restore to a back up 2 times. The first time took 3 hours and just sort of timed out - it kept saying that there was an hour to go
I tried it again 2 hours ago and same message.
They are very valuable to me and so now I am panicking
Your help is much appreciated

Hi Eric Ferguson,
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
For troubleshooting on this, take a look at this article:
iTunes: Specific update-and-restore error messages and advanced troubleshooting
http://support.apple.com/kb/ts3694
Error 13, 14, 35 and 50 (or -50)
These errors are typically resolved by performing one or more of the steps listed below:
Perform USB isolation troubleshooting, including trying a different USB port directly on the computer. See the advanced steps below for USB troubleshooting.
Put a USB 2.0 hub between the device and the computer.
Try a different USB 30-pin dock-connector cable.
Eliminate third-party security software conflicts.
There may be third-party software installed that modifies your default packet size in Windows by inserting one or more TcpWindowSize entries into your registry. Your default packet size being set incorrectly can cause this error. Contact the manufacturer of the software that installed the packet-size modification for assistance. Or, follow this article by Microsoft: How to reset Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) to reset the packet size back to the default for Windows.
Connect your computer directly to your Internet source, bypassing any routers, hubs, or switches. You may need to restart your computer and modem to get online.
Try to restore from another known-good computer and network.
Best of luck,
Mario

Billing Doc from a Contract with WBS, how to ??

Hello there !!!
I need to make a billing doc from a rental contract MV against a WBS Element, i cant see the field on the position of the contract.
Can you tell me if there is a way to make this field visible for the position of the contract?
or what changes do i have to do in the copy control from the contract to the billing doc so it can take the WBS from the header or the contract to the position in the billing doc.

Wow, can't believe I didn't see that - I looked in all the "International" sections, just not in the "Phone" section. Duh. Tried calling and it working (flashes an "international" warning while dialing).
The curious thing is that this was already enabled. I'd tried texting someone else who was in India with me and he never received it, so I assumed I wasn't dialing correctly. Perhaps the problem is only with texting, or only with my friend's phone. In any case, if the problem reappears, this gets me closer to troubleshooting it.
Thanks, all!

Project Pro hangs while opening a schedule from Project 2010 server.

Hi,
We have an issue with opening a schedule from Project server 2010. Project client is not responding. when we try to open schedule in PWA. I am getting unable to open file do you want to open in default view. No matter which view I choose keep getting the
same error. The only view i can see resource view however it will not let me edit. I did notice Project Manager had entered resource names first, last name format which do not exist in our resource pool. We can open other schedule except this particular
one.
Thank you

Obviously, my first thoughts are that this plan is corrupted in some fashion. Entering Resource names differentluy should not cause this issue, they will just not be recognized as Enterprise Resources by the system.
Are you experiencing the issue if you try to open the schedule from PWA? If you are able to open from PWA, try publishing it from PWA and see if it throws any errors.
Also, how about trying it from a different machine?
And finally, it might be worthwhile to check if you have the latest Client Update for Project installed (or atleast matching with the server).
If none fof these work,
a) you could try restoring it from Archive Database (assuming you have a daily schedule backup running)
b) If you are able to open it from another machine, you could use the "Save for sharing" feature to try and resolve any corruption with the schedule itself.
