What is meant by ASN and importance of ASN

Hi gurus,
      Please let me know What is meant by ASN and importance of ASN.
Venkat

Hello,
<b>ASN is an acronym for Advance Shipping notification</b>. ASN is an electronic transaction through EDI. One can pay when shipment is received by referencing the order number/shipment number on these notices instead of receiving an invoice. <u><i>ASN are generally/universally accepted to be generated at time of shipment</i></u>, in rare cases before the shipment to give the receiver enough time if the shipment time is very short like the Fedex Hub across the street. The receiver may use it for receiving to reconcile invoices, they may use it for dock preparation, dispatch trucks among others and <u>speeding up payment</u>.
<b>ASN should not be confused with the Packing List</b>. A packing list is a subset of what a ASN contains or used for, as one is supposed to see an ASN before the physical shipment. In case the business requirement is about receiving everything and scan in the packing list after verifying it physically it should match the ASN.
Though these days documents/definition is used/interpreted by different people and in different industries for different reasons.

  • What is meant by breakpoint and watchpoint

    hi experts
    how we can define breakpoint and watchpoint
    what is the functionality of breakpoint and watchpoint
    thanks in advance

    Hi
    These are two things which are used to debug any program
    We keep a Break point (soft or hard) in the code and execute the program, so that the execution stops at that break point line of code , so that you can check the values of the fields nd internal tables.
    When you are debugging in the loop of a internal table when you wants to reach a particular record in the loop of a internal table define watch point by giving some condition like field = value. and execute then that loop pass stops at that particular record and check the values

  • What is meant by criteria of Updateability in MDM Import manager

    Hi,
    What is meant by criteria of Updateability in MDM Import manager? i read some information, but i could understand, it says original data source be  updateble. what is meant by Original data source.?
    what is the use of option "Read-only"  in Import manager logon screen.
    Thanks

    Hello Ankam,
    You can check the Read-only option to prevent MDM from updating your data source.
    Kindly see the below information on "DATA SOURCE UPDATES"
    DATA SOURCE UPDATES
    Some MDM Import Manager operations require that the original data source be updateable, thereby allowing new fields and/or entire new tables u2013 and the corresponding data values for each record u2013 to be automatically added to the data source before further processing.
    Other operations simply create virtual fields in the MDM Import Manageru2019s workspace, although if the data source happens to be updateable, some of these operations instead add the new fields to the original data source as well.
    NOTE ►► Updating the data source when possible allows you to
    perform additional operations on the new fields as if they were part of
    the original source data, and also use them as record matching fields.
    NOTE ►► Fields that are added only if the data source is updateable
    can be deleted automatically by the MDM Import Manager when you
    exit or switch data sources based on the setting of the Delete Created
    Fields on Exit configuration option.
    Updateable Data Sources
    Whether or not a data source is updateable depends upon the following:
    u2022 Source type. The source Type must permit the MDM Import Manager to update its schema and insert the additional fields of data; some supported types are updateable and some are not.
    u2022 Media. The media on which the data source resides must itself be updateable. If the media on which the data source resides is readonly, such as a CD-ROM, the data source cannot be updated.
    u2022 Permissions. You must have the proper file system permissions to update the file, or the proper DBMS permissions to update the schema of the database.
    u2022 Read-only option. You cannot have checked the Read-Only option, which prevents MDM from updating the data source even if the other conditions would otherwise permit it.
    NOTE ►► The Read-Only option is: (1) enabled for source types that
    can be updated (Access, Oracle, SQL Server, and XML); (2) disabled
    and unchecked for those that use Access as an updateable staging
    area (Delimited Text and Fixed Text); and (3) disabled and checked for
    those that cannot be updated (Excel and ODBC).
    NOTE ►► When the data source is SQL Server, the table names in
    the database must not contain spaces; otherwise any operation that
    would update the data source will fail.
    Hope this helps.
    Regards,
    Vikas

  • What is main diff b/w imported Archives and External Defination in IR

    What is main diff b/w imported Archives and External Defination in IR

    Hi Vijay,
    ED-standard schema for describing the message structure.If you have the structure provided to you from some external application you can use it in PI directly without recreating in PI.you can import following formats which are used to describe message schema
    WSDL (Web Service Description Language),
    XSD (XML Schema Definition Language),
    DTDs (Document Type Definitions)
    Imported Archives: its used basically for java and xslt mapping where you create the required mapping externally using some tools
    (java-eclipse/NWDS .XSLT-stylus studio).You can also implement XSLT and Java mappingsf and save them as archives in the Integration Repository.

  • I am using Iphoto 11 ver 9.4.3 on mac using oxs 10.8.5 i want to export calendar projects to an external hard drive. what is the easiest way to do this? i have tried export and import but it didn't seem to work.

    I am using Iphoto 11 ver 9.4.3 on mac using oxs 10.8.5 i want to export calendar projects to an external hard drive. my goal is to store them in an external hard drive so it doesn't use up memory on the mac hard drive. is it possible to copy the specific projects without copying the entire library? what is the easiest way to do this? i have tried export and import but it didn't seem to work.

    What do you not understand?
    You can duplicate the iPhoto library (command - D ) and delete everything except the project and its photos from the copy and move that
    Or
    However the calendar takes very little space - it is simpy database entries - it is the photos in the calendar that take space - and for most people you would wnat to keep those photos in your library
    you can use a photo in 50 calendars and it still is only one photo in your library - as I explained calenders do not exist as such - they are simply database entries telling iPhotop how to display the calendar - they take almost no space at all

  • What is the best way to import and edit a large amount of footage?

    Hello Apple world,
    As a newbie to Final Cut 10 I have a question regarding best ways to import footage. I'll give you a quick run down.
    I have a 150 gig of gopro footage that I just hit 'import' to recently (from my external HD), it took around 10 hours to process it all.
    Its all under one event, but then somewhat organised into dates etc. But it is very slow. I imported it all at once because it was all footage from the last 6 months of my Whistler/states/fiji trip and want to make a movie out of it, using clips from all over the time, not just in chronological order.
    I have the latest mac book pro, 4 gig ram,2.4 GHz i7, 750 hard drive, with nothing else on the computer.
    Ive read about creating proxy media, after ive imported, but am still somewhat confused as to the benefit. Does it create duplicates? that will fill up my pretty large HD as it is!
    Can you suggest any ways that might make my laptop run a bit faster? Should i delete and work directly from external HD etc etc?
    Any suggestions will be greatly appreciated!
    Thanks in advance

    Hello,
    I've just finished shooting what I am considering to be my directorial masterpiece.  Shot it on the Canon 5D (1080p, 24fps), and the footage looks amazing.  Now I am ready to start editing and have been using premiere lately, but I have yet to figure out the proper pipeline.  I want to know the best way to retain resolution before I delve into this project.
    My questions:
    1)  What is the best way to start a new project and import the footage without having to render whilst editing, so as to retain all resolution and originality of the source footage?
    2)  What is the best way/ codec/ format to export this same footage once editing is complete so as to retain that crisp 1080p for which the 5D is so recognized?
    3)  What is the best way/ codec/ format to import and export/ render between premiere and after effects?  I am speaking mostly of vfx and color correction.  I also have some 30fps footage that I intend to slow down in AE and then import into premiere.
    I know this is pretty broad, but as a solo filmmaker I really need someone's guidance.  I rarely ever finish my films with the same, crisp look as the footage.  I need pipeline help, and really appreciate it!
    1. Follow the advice above. Also use the Media Browser to import the footage in case you have spanned media files. Import files with the Media Browser.
    2. It largely depends on what you wish to ouput to: Blu-ray, web, etc. This FAQ gives the best answer: What are the best export settings?

  • What is the best way to export and import updates between WSUS servers for specific KB's with environments that have different data sets?

    We are under strict regulations and monitoring at my company. Because of this, we have to define what updates are being installed during a patch cycle by KB Article. Two production networks and one test network. The installed updates have to be the exact
    same in the test environment, run for a few days with no problems, and then we install them in our production networks. The issue is, not all of the software in the environments is identical.
    I need to figure out a way to take failed/needed updates from production that are unapproved, export that list so I can approve all of those updates in the test env.. Then once I approve those and any other needed updates in test, I need to be able to export
    all approved updates from the test env (which includes the needed ones from production) and import those approvals in production.
    How can this be done?
    Thanks!

    the easiest way will be to use a single wsus infrastructre for all your environments.
    Tis blog article explains how to duplicate the approvals over groups:
