What's the purpose of negative posting ?

Hi
Pls check help provided by SAP
Negative stocks are necessary, for example, when goods issues are entered for organizational reasons prior to the corresponding goods receipts and the material is already physically located in the warehouse.
Once the goods receipts have been posted, the book inventory balance must again correspond to the physical stock, that is, the book inventory balance may no longer be negative.
Negative stocks are always a sign that physical movements must be be entered in the system at a later stage.
Example
1000 pieces of a material are delivered. Due to lack of time, the goods receipt is not yet entered in the system.
Physical stock: +1000 pieces
Book inventory balance: 0 pieces
The material is needed urgently and 100 pieces are withdrawn from the warehouse. The goods issue is entered in the system straightaway.
Physical stock: +900 pieces
Book inventory balance: -100 pieces
At the end of the day, a goods receipt is posted for 1000 pieces.
Physical stock: +900 pieces
Book inventory balance: +900 pieces
Reward if usefull
vishal..

What is the purpose of GL account in the account assignment tab of PO scree

hi,
in the purchase order screen, in the account assignment tab, there is a field labelled as GL account. May i know what is the purpose of this gl account because as far as i am concerned we need to specify the vendor gl account (in the vendor master) and the stock account and GR/IR account in BSX and WRX transactions in OBYC respectively.
In that case what is the purpose of specifyin a GL account in the purchase order account assignment tab?

Hi,
The fact is quite simple - When you are buying the material, you can be able to define if this is for inventorization or for consumption. If it is for inventory replenishment, then the stock account will be debited during GR posting. Otherwise, P&L account will be debited. The G/L account you have seen in your PO is always needed in case of direct consumption. At the time of GR posting, the posting lines will be -
1)   For stock item:
Dr     Stock Account (BSX Transaction/Event Key);
Cr     GR/IR Clearing Account (WRX Transaction/Event Key)
2)   In case of non-stock item:
Dr     P&L Account (GBB/xxx Transaction/Event Key where xxx is defined in the 'Account Modifier field of the related account assignment category setting in OME9 transaction - which is seen in the PO);
Cr    GR/IR Clearing Account (WRX Transaction/Event Key).

What is the purpose of the Serial / Normal switch on the SUP-NS3S lens support.

Hello Dkaer,
The SUP-NS3S lens support is a very specific product and handled a bit differently than our consumer [and even professional] level equipment. Meaning, we will need to consult with our broadcast lens engineers to provide a complete answer. Once they respond back to us, the response will be posted either back to this forum thread, or relayed via email directly to you.
Thank you for your patience on this matter. We hope you have a great day.

What is the purpose of F-03 clearing? How to clear GL account there in F-03

HI,
What is the purpose of F-03 clearing? How to clear GL account there in F-03.Please help me in understanding the concept.
Thanks
Supriya

Hello,
There are cases where you pass some manual entries which might not have cleared against the other related item, THOUGH the balance has been ZERO. Like cases where you reverse logistics invoice through MR8M, then entry gets reversed but they are still open items. Like some GRIR accounts might have debit and credit entries for same purchase order and the balance MIGHT have become ZERO, but still they are open item. To clear all these open itesm (changing the status of the open items to cleared items, you need to use F-03)
Please go to F-03 and give the GL account which want to manually clear the debit and credit items.
Normally you will this kind of activity for clearing account, where there is no automatic clearing mechanism explained in OB74.
now click on open items. (if you know any specific things like document number etc. you can fill them, then they will act as a FILTER and only those document numbers you feeded will be appeared)
Now select the items you want to clear. Deselected all other you do not want to clear. Selected items will be in blue colour and the difference at the end of the screen MUST be ZERO to post (unless you configured otherwise)
Click on save button.
The entries passed will GL Account A Dr and GL Account B Cr. Meaning that there is no implication but posting the debit and crediting the same account and clearing the status of the line items from OPEN to CLEARED.
Hope I am clear.
Regards,
Ravi

What's the purpose for the resistor in the jack of Pismo's power supply?

Recently the power supply of my Pismo started failing and I decided to troubleshoot it. Turned out the cable next to the jack was broken. I went on with the repairs and inside the jack I found a resistor connecting the negative terminal with the shield of the jack. What's the purpose for it? What would happened if I just removed it (I found a site that said it wasn't really necessary)?
Andy

After talking to a couple of experts in the field of electronics, they both confirmed tat that resistor is there in order to suppress any RF interference that the PowerBook might produce.

What is the purpose of using rush order doc type?

what is the purpose of using rush order doc type?

hi,
In a rush order transaction, the customer picks up the goods or you deliver the goods on the same day as the order is placed. In the standard system, when you save this sales document type, a delivery is automatically created and billing is related to the delivery.
In the standard system, sales document type SO is saved for rush orders with immediate delivery type LF. Once the goods have been removed from storage, the goods are picked, and goods issue is posted.
Once the billing documents are created (for example, in collective processing), invoice papers are printed and sent to the customer.

What is the purpose of using cash sales doc type?

what is the purpose of using cash sales doc type?

You can go through the link
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_46c/helpdata/en/70/a7853478616434e10000009b38f83b/frameset.htm
Update from help.sap.com
Cash sales is an order type for when the customer orders, picks up and pays for the goods immediately. The delivery is processed as soon as the order has been entered. A cash invoice can be printed immediately from the order and billing is related to the order. Receivables do not occur for the customer as they do for rush or standard orders, because the invoice amount is posted directly to a cash account.
Process Flow
In the standard system, sales document type BV is saved for cash sales with immediate delivery type BV.
When the sales employee creates a cash sale, the system automatically proposes the current date as the date for delivery and billing. Once the order has been posted, a delivery with type BV is created immediately in the background and the system prints a document that is used as an invoice for the customer.
The invoice papers are controlled with output type RD03, contained in the output determination procedure for order type BV.
If the customer has already received the goods, this delivery should not be relevant for picking. If the customer is to pick the goods up from a warehouse, the delivery should be relevant for picking. If the goods are to be sent, this can be processed by maintaining the delivery in the usual way.
The system automatically creates a resource-related billing index which updates the billing due list. Billing document BV is created as the system processes the billing due list, but an invoice is not printed.
Once the customer has received the goods and is satisfied with them, the transaction is considered to be complete. We recommend that you post goods issue in the background using a program designed specifically for this purpose. You can then bill the transaction.
The cash sale can only be billed if the order quantity is the same as the goods issue quantity. If this is not the case, you need to adjust the cash sale document so that the delivered quantity and the quantity to be billed match.
You use an order-related collective billing process to bill the cash sale, but an invoice is not printed. The sales order number is used as the reference for the accounting document, created in Financial Accounting.
Dealing with Problems and Complaints
If the transaction does not run smoothly, manual intervention is necessary. For example, if the required quantity of goods is not found in the warehouse, you need to adjust the delivery quantity. Equally, if the customer is not prepared to pay the agreed price, because, for example, the goods are scratched, you can change the price in the cash sale document.
In extreme cases, you can delete the entire transaction, starting with the delivery.
If the delivery is damaged before it is picked up but after it is paid for and there is no replacement stock, you can initiate a subsequent delivery.
If you make changes to the cash sale, you can issue a new cash sale invoice using the repeat printout function.
Creating a Cash Sale
In the initial screen, choose Logistics ® Sales and distribution ® Sales.
Choose Order ® Create.
Enter the order type for cash sales (BV in the standard system) and, if necessary, the organizational data.
The values for sales organization, distribution channel and the division are usually proposed from user-defined parameters. Entries for the sales office and the sales group are optional.
Choose Enter.
Enter the following data:
Customer number of the sold-to party
Material numbers
Order quantities for the materials
Choose Enter.
If the system carries out an availability check and finds that there is insufficient stock for an order item to be delivered on the requested date, it displays a screen on which you can choose between several delivery proposals. Normally, in a cash sale, you only sell the quantity you can deliver on the spot.
Save your document.
The system automatically processes the delivery in the background and prints out a cash sale invoice. The amount of the sale is processed later in an order-related billing transaction. The amount is posted to financial accounting, using the order number as reference. Because this is a cash sale, no invoice is produced during the billing run.

What was the purpose in removing the visibilty of cropmarks?

1). What was the purpose in removing the visibilty of cropmarks?
2). Why, when I go to create a jpeg using 'Save for web & devices', are my cropmarks ignored?
3). How is this new pop-up slider bar for gradients, better? It is absolutely unwieldy, and frustrating and complicates what was very simple.
I am a professional using your product ever since Illustrator88. What you've done here are not improvements. What you've done is uselessly tinker with things that worked perfectly. Why?

I frankly don't care what you think, Wade. I don't recall seeking your input at all. As I said earlier, I thought this forum was moderated by Adobe. I thought I was asking Adobe. Did I post "hey, Wade Zimmerman, let me get your advice"? No, I didn't. And believe me, just because you can't think of a reason, that doesn't mean there are none.
I set up print jobs in Illustrator. If you throw crops on the artboard when you start, you don't have to sweat format saves such as PDFs or save-to-web jpegs (which are less memory intensive than just saving to jpeg), grabbing content from outside the artboard. I realize there is a clip to artboard option in save-for-web, and a newly added 'use artboards' option when saving a PDF, but prior to CS4 you didn't need to mess with it, for everything to come out fine. My jpegs and PDFs are for client review. I realize you "do not need crop marks for web publishing", but when you use (in CS3) object>crop area, every other format you save respects those crops. I never said they should be visible in 'save-for-web', just respected. I want them visible when I set them on my artboard.
By the way, You're the only that I see in this thread, who says I'm complaining about nothing (frankly, I wouldn't care if everyone was). Do me a favor, Wade. Don't ever give me the benefit of your smug certainty or your "more logical approaches" on any further posts I may make. Let me suffer. There are a million ways to use this application. To assume that if you can't conceive of a use or process then it must be wrong, just drips with arrogance. If I want cropmarks, and apply them, then I want to SEE them on the artboard.

While defining a columnar table, what is the purpose of column store type

Hi folks
I have two questions related to columnar table definition.
1. What is the purpose of column store type.
While defining a columnar table, what is the purpose of column store type (STRING ,CS_FIXEDSTRING,CS_INT etc) , when I define a table using the UI I see that the column is showing STRING but when I goto EXPORT SQL it does not show. Is this mandatory or optional ?
2.VARCHAR Vs. CHAR - In the UI when I create the table I do not see the CHAR option , but I do see lot of discussion where people are using CHAR for defining the columnar table. Not sure why UI dropdown does not show it. I also read that we should avoid using VARCHAR as those columns are not compressed, is that true, I thought the column store gives compression for all the columns. Are there certain columns which cannot be compressed .
Please let me know where I can find more information about these two questions.
Poonam

Hi Poonam
the CS_-data types are the data types that are used internally in the column store. They can be supplied but it is not at all required or recommended to do so.
SAP HANA will automatically use the correct CS_-data type for every SQL data type in your table definitions.
To be very clear about this: don't use the CS_-data types directly. Just stick to the SQL data types.
Concerning VARCHAR vs CHAR: fixed character data types are not supported anymore and don't show up anymore in the documentation.
I have no idea why you believe that VARCHAR columns are not compressed but this is just a myth.
create column table charcompr (fchar char(20), vchar varchar(20));
insert into charcompr (
    select lpad ('x', to_int (rand()*20), 'y'), null from objects cross join objects);
-- same data into both columns
update charcompr set vchar = fchar;
-- perform the delta merge and force a compression optimization
merge delta of charcompr;
update charcompr with parameters ('OPTIMIZE_COMPRESSION' ='FORCE');
-- check the memory requirements
select COLUMN_NAME, MEMORY_SIZE_IN_TOTAL, UNCOMPRESSED_SIZE, COUNT, DISTINCT_COUNT, COMPRESSION_TYPE
from m_cs_columns where table_name ='CHARCOMPR'
COLUMN_NAME    MEMORY_SIZE_IN_TOTAL    UNCOMPRESSED_SIZE   COUNT   DISTINCT_COUNT COMPRESSION_TYPE
FCHAR       3661                    70285738            6692569 20              RLE
VCHAR       3661                    70285738            6692569 20              RLE
We see: compression and memory requirements are the same for both fixed and variable character sizes.

What is the purpose of Destination Function on Submit Button?(Doesn't work)

Hi Gurus,
There is a property "Destination Function" on Submit buttons.
What is the purpose of this field.

What is the purpose of open/close connection data socket?

Hello everyone,
I am writing and reading values in OPC Server through data socket. What is the purpose of open/close connection data socket when writing /reading a value? Without the open/close connection element, it still work correctly. I am writing values in the server thru event stucture.I do not need any buffered reading or writing. What will happen if I didnt not use the open/close connection? Maybe it may cause some problems in my program which i didnt realise?
And I have attached an example of my program. Thanks

Hi YehChia,
I was talking about something like that:
1. Not good. since with every iteration the DS connection needs to be opened and closed.
2. Good. Since you open the connection only once then do the reads and close it afterwords.

IPod Touch Newbie: What is the purpose of the iTunes app on my iPod Touch?

What is the purpose of the iTunes app on my iPod Touch?
All it does is connect to the iTunes store if I'm near a WiFi connection. It appears to be useful only for impulse purchasing of media. So why is it not named "iTunes Store"? It appears to have no other function.
Also, to listen to my iTunes music on iPod Touch I have to click on the Music button...not the iTunes app. What logic is that?
Also, iTunes has synced a movie for me, but I have no clue how to view it on the iPod Touch. It doesn't appear in iTunes on the iPod Touch, and there is no "Movie" button anywhere. What am I missing? I can't find it anywhere.

For purchasing music, downloading podcasts,etc.

OIM: What is the purpose of "Update" while editing group memberships

Hi,
This is when you lookup a user's Resource Profile and go to "Edit" link. The process form shows up along with a drop down to edit the group memberships. When we select one of the choices such as "Groups" another window pops up where we could add more entires into the child form. In this form there is an "Update" column with a radio button besides a "Remove" column. What is the purpose of this "Update" column? We can add or delete child entries but what does update do? Is there a way to remove this selection altogether?
Thanks in advance

Update I can see used for a cases where you have multiple columns on a child table entry and want to change one of them. Strictly speaking, you can update a single column child table rather than delete and insert also. Access policies always do insert and delete actions, but you will want to implement an update task as well if you expect anyone to be editing child tables on resources directly.

What is the purpose of Multiproviders???

Hi Everyone,
I am currently trying to create a multiprovider.
I have read the SAP documentation but I still do not understand in what circumstances should I create a multiprovider for reporting.
Would appreciate if anyone can provide details on what is the purpose of multiproviders?
Assuming I have the following scenario, should I create a multiprovider for reporting?
Infocube A:-
Characteristic
- Employee Number
- Cal Month/Year
- Shift Type
Key Figure
- Hours
Infocube B:-
Characteristic
- Employee Number
- Cal Month/Year
Key Figure
- Amount
I need to report on both the key figures for each employee and what is the shift type of the employee for the specific cal month/year. The employee number, cal month/year and shift type will be used as selection parameters.
I am thinking of creating a multiprovider for this reporting need but I think there will be some problems.
For example:
1) If I input the employee number and shift type as selection parameters, the amount column will be empty when the report is displayed.
2) If I input on the employee nunmber, then I'll be able to see both the key figures when the report is displayed but the data are on different lines which does not make sense to users.
Emp ID   Shift Type    Cal Mth/Yr   Hours     Amount
200001   Shift         05.2006       10
200001   Not assigned 05.2006                 1000
Only if I don't show the shift type column, then the record will be display in a single line.
How can I rectify such a problem.
Please advise.
Thanks.
Shunhui.

Hi,
A MultiProvider is a type of InfoProvider that combines data from a number of InfoProviders and makes it available for reporting purposes. The MultiProvider does not itself contain any data. Its data comes entirely from the InfoProviders on which it is based. These InfoProviders are connected to one another by a union operation.
InfoProviders and MultiProviders are the objects or views that are relevant for reporting.
Multiprovider - used when we want to report on chracteristics and keyfigures that are in different data targets.
