Urgent: FI Configuration
Dear all,
I'm facing the problem
After I configure FI, on the screen Enter Vendor invoice/ Payment Tab (T.code:FB60) I lack some fields for inputing accounting entries data such as : payment term, Discount (where I enter cash discount amount if this amount is fixed rather than a percentage rate), Disc.Base,Partner Bank, House Bank, invoice reference. But on the screen Enter Customer invoice that has all these fields
So I can't input enough accounting entries data in Vendor invoice.
Please tell me which step I missed during configuration and How to fix it
Thank so much
Minh
Hi
you would have assigned recon account in the vendor master. go to that recon in FS00 and see the field status group in CREATE BANK/INTEREST TAB. check that field status group. There those fields would have been suppressed. Make it optional. It will surely come.
Award points if it is useful
Thanks & Regards,
A.Anandarajan.

Our setup is such that the SSO hostname is oraprda01.mpx.biz but the AD/KDC realm is AD.MULTIPLEX.BIZ. I found http://www.oracle.com/technology/obe/obe_as_10g/im/wna/wna.htm and we have more or less the same situation so it should work but it doesn't. I've already got this working in the test environment but the SSO hostname there is gfradev01.ad.multiplex.biz. Note that it has the same domain name as the AD realm.
Doing a kinit without using the keytab file works for HTTP/[email protected] but when I use the keytab file, I get the pre-authentication error.
Can anyone advice as to how we can make this work? Are there extra setups which need to be done on the AD server which Oracle did not document?
Thank you very much,
AbigailIf urgent, contact Support.
Is the account option ‘Do not require kerberos preauthentication’ checked (see MicroSoft KB 832572)

Urgent: Newly configured system doesn't show up in Maintenance Optimizer
Dear Experts,
please, I need a quick aid on the following issue:
I have just installed a brand new Java system with usage type Development Infrastructure.
As the system urgently requires installing the latest SPS available, I defined it in our Solution
Manager 7.1 SP10. I have installed the diagnostics agent, then I assigned it to the system,
I made the entire managed system configuration and everything is fine! Just when I started
the MOPZ, in order to calculate the stack, I found out, that the system isn't displayed anywhere!!
In the first step of the managed system configuration, I have created a new logical component
Z_NWDI. Reviewing transaction SMSY, I saw that this logical component is not assigned to the
solution, so I assume that this might be the problem. But I didn't find a way how to make this
logical component a part of our solution! I have checked all the setup in LMDB, and it all seems
to be perfect, I compared things for which I wasn't sure, with another Java system, which is
shown in MOPZ.
Many thanks for your help!Hi Symon,
Great.
check the whether SLD is having proper details.
how you link the system using solution manager SLD or any other SLD. if you use other SLD also please update teh CR content.
After the successful updation in SLD,
https://help.sap.com/saphelp_sm71_sp05/helpdata/en/f6/a41e0402664451b9c4640ff4513527/cont
transaction SE38 and run the report RLMDB_SYNC_TECHNICAL_SYSTEM
.( it will delete the old data and re-synchronize from the SLD )
and select the below option and execute it. so it will delete and re-create the latest details.
once issue is solved. please close this thread.

URGENT: RAID5 Configuration on RD120 Server: Scenario A vs. Scenario B
This particular issue isn't server specific, but I am posting in this forum because it just so happens to be a brand new Lenovo RD120 I am working on.
Also, sorry for the urgent status but I have a very small amount of time to find the answer.
My issue concerns how to config RAID 5 redundancy and get 2 partitions, in the best possible manner, considering disaster recovery, and performance (but I really am not concerned about performance since this server is way over speced for the function it will be performing). The disks are 250GB X 3 so for simplicity let's just say total space is 500GB (of course total space is less due to misc. overhead).
I want to have 2 partitions on my future Windows 2003 installation; A "C" drive which will hold the OS, and an "E" drive which will hold data. I have 2 ways to accomplish this:
1) Config RAID 5 array with a single container to present to the OS. Have the OS installation create a partition 100GB for itself within that single container, then install the OS. Once installed, create a second partition for the remaining 400GB.
OR
2) Config RAID 5 array with 2 containers to present to the OS: 100GB and 400GB. Install the OS to the 100GB logical disk, and use the 400GB logical disk for "E".
I've Googled this every which way, and cannot come up with a difinitive answer. I also checked with our local server "expert" who says it does not matter which way to do it, and that he would do method #1.
Now I understand that both ways will accomplish what I am trying to do. HOWEVER, in terms of disaster recovery, I am leaning toward method #2 because we had a scenario 6 months ago where a server was configged this way and we lost container #1 (the OS), but container #2 remained intact (the data). We rebuilt container #1, then restored the OS, and it was beautiful; no loss of data from container #2.
SO, does having multiple RAID 5 containers introduce any negative concerns such as:
-More likely for RAID5 config to go corrupt (during events such as hard power loss, etc).
-Performance loss (I am not concerned about this but I would like to know)
-Premature hard drive failure (just a guess but I thought I'd mention it).
THANKS EVERYONE!
Solved!
Go to Solution.Just to add to the topic as maybe anyone else might benefit from it.
I would suggest similar what Eric proposed. If you already have 3x250, instead of RAID 5 please buy additional 250GB HDD and use 2x250 RAID 1 for OS and 2x250 RAID 1 for data.
Also for data part I would suggest (if there's available bay) another 250GB disk as hot spare.
Disaster recovery is always more expensive than 1 spare HDD, esp. when server's lifecycle is 3-5 years.

URGENT - Stage Configuration Question
Hello Gurus,
I have received a request from the business to update my workflow so that the aprover can not change anything(either role assignmnent or User details or validity) in the request for approval. He/she should just be alowed to approve or reject the request. The Workflow we are using is only for User Change and is a standard workflow. In my opinion I can achieve this by making the following changes at the stage level:
1. "Change Req Det " field as unchecked.
2. "Add Assignment" field as unchecked.
Would these teo things solve my purpose?Anything apart from this that i need to configure? Can you please suggest?
Would appreciate an early response.
Thanks.

URGENT HELP-CONFIGURE SWITCH 3560
Dear All,
I have here in my company 25 Cisco Switch 3560 .
as i know, i will configure the Switch with the Basic configuration like Hostname & IP-Address - & Gateway.
My 2 question is :-
1- if i configure the switch with the Basic Configuration like IP-Address & Subnet mask & So on , where its saved on the Switch Exactly ?
2- instead of have the 25 Switch in-front of me , and assign each switch his configuration like IP-Address & all the Things, is there any way to copy the Configurations from the switch which i configured on the Text file & then on each switch i will modify the Text file which include the configuration for that switch ( New configuration ) & then apply to that switch ( the New one ) ?
if i can do like that , can i & HOW CAN I DO IT , PLEASE HELP ME BY WRITING THE COMMAND WHICH I NEED TO FOLLOW IT ?
Thanks .
Rania.Hi Rania,
When you just configure the switch all the config is in DRAM (running config) but when you do wr me it is saved in NVRAM (startup config).
What you can do is write all the commands for ip address and the configs what you want on wordpad and from there you can modify the lines what you want for each switch and just copy it and paste on the switch global config mode.
Remember you have to create all the vlans manually in vlan database or you can configure one switch as VTp server and another switch as VTP client and all the vlans will be synched to the switches which are in VTP client mode.
To configure ip address
int vlan 1
ip address x.x.x.x x.x.x.x
no shut
to configure hostname
config t
hostname
This link is a complete config guide which will guide you with all what you want to configure on 3560 switch

Regarding DMS configuration - urgent help
Hi,
I need urgent help with the below scenario.
I created one document,attached a drawing,now i want to submit to a higher level authority using workflow who can approve/reject.how do i do this.
Also i would like to create two vaults Vault A and Vault B ,user A has read/write to vault A and user B has read/write to only Vault B ,but user C has read.write to both vaults.
Please let me know how do i create users,configure vaults and give permissions.
thanks
prasad sureshfirst u have to create status for approval
i give u one example of it
first u have to create different stauts for approval process
for this u have to configure in SPRO with the relevant document type
and give the proper authorization in PFCG to relavant user , who create the doc and who chek and who released the doc
read this carefully , i made this kind of approval process in my project
1 --- "CR" means "Create" by document Creater
2 --- "Ch" "Checked" by X authority / if any mistake found then "R1" "Rework" by X authority
3 --- "Re" " Released" by Y authority / if any mistake found then "R2" "Rework" by Y authority
think that there is three stage for approval of any drawing
first stage -
document creat (Draft Man Creat Drawing and attached )
at that time document status is "Cr" after creating doc , that DIR info is sent to higher
authority using document distribution functionality
second stage----- document checker (Receive document from Draft Man in SAP Inbox)
he chek that drawing (DIR) . if there is not any other mistake than it again
follow the cycle of document distribution to his higher authority. this time
document status updated from " Cr " to " Ch" means from "creat" to "checked "
if any mistake found than he change status "Cr" to "R1" means
create to rework and send it back to drafts man
and drafts man again modify drawing and modify status "R1" to "Cr"
and send it to higher authority
third stage -
document aprover (Receive document from document checker in SAP Inbox)
he chek that drawing (DIR) . if there is not any other mistake than he update
document status from " Ch" to "Re" means from "checked " to "Released"
if any mistake found than he change status "ch" to "R2" means
checked to rework and send it back to drafts man
and drafts man again modify drawing and modify status "R2" to "Cr"
and send it to higher authority
and in second question , pls tell me clear what u wana do
vaults means what ?
is it Repository or what ?
give me idea by some example
