Where to see whether print is availabel or not
Hi all,
My report server is running in Solaris mechine, we installed a printer on the same mechine. When i try to run a report and print directly thru the same printer, i am getting the following message.
REP-3002: Error initializing printer. Please make sure a printer is installed.
Where could i see whether the printer is available for the report server or not.
Thanks
ERROR->>>You get an error about being unable to initialize the printer (REP-3002).
SOLUTION BY ORACLE
1. Ensure Oracle Reports Services has access to printers.
For Windows NT, the System Account does not usually have access to printers.
It could be that you installed Oracle Reports Services as an NT service
and used the System Account or another account without printer access in the Log On As field.
You must specify an account in the Log On As field that has a default printer access.
This printer does not have to exist, but the driver must be installed.
hope it will help you

I have never seen this one before - a print job that magically reappears over and over after being deleted. Does anyone know what this is? Has anyone seen this before? Here are the specifics:
Printer is and HP laserjet connected via USB to computer A which is a G5 iMac running OSX, current update as of today minus one. Computer A has Appletalk enabled over the ethernet, and printer sharing turned on for this printer. The logged in user is not the system administrator, it is a non-administrator user.
Computer B is a G4 iMac, running OSX 10.3, Appletalk enabled via ethernet. The two computers are connected to an ethernet router. The printer for Computer B is set to the remote printer from Computer A.
Computer B sends a print job from Microsoft Word, which get sent to Computer A. It disappears from the print queue on Computer B. It appears on the print queue for Computer A, and starts printing - 100 copies!
The print queue on Computer A is stopped, the job is deleted. The print queue is turned back on.
The job REAPPEARS and starts printing again.
The queue is stopped and the job deleted - same result! The job reappears. So the queue is stopped, the job is deleted, the printer shut off and restarted, and the computer restarted. The print queue is turned back on.
The job REAPPEARS and starts printing again!
Eventually, the only way to kill this job was to DELETE the printer and recreate it!
What on earth was this problem? Has anyone ever see a print job that would NOT go away???Hi ....
I understand the issue with ur printer. and with the present set of OS this issue can be resolved.
!! Prior to this u need to reset the printing services and then have a download of the recent set of drivers from the Vendor website.
IF not then u need to delete the HP Printer folder and the HP Preferences from the Libraby folder....
How to get there ::
Double Click : MAC HDD icon
select Library : and select Preferences.
Do re-install the drivers for the Printer.
Hope this may resolve ur issue. -
My computer does not see my printer
Hi: I am having a problem with my HP Photosmart 4500 printer. My computer does not see it. I have a USB connected to it, have uninstalled and installed the software two time, dowloaded the latest update and nothing. Add to that, I can not connect it by WIFI. WIFI on the printer is on but again, it's no where on any of the screens. The only variable I can think of that has changed has been the router I got recently from AT&T. Everything else works with the WIFI but no computer. I'm running 10.7.5. I have read the install instructions and nothing seems to be working. The one thing I do get from the HP install disc is a message reading the printer isn't recognized but there are no updates in support. OK, what am I missing here?
Try these steps to uninstall the current software using the HP scrubber and then reinstall using the current HP driver available through Apple.
To do so, perform the following steps:
1. Go to Applications/Hewlett Packard/ and then click on “HP Uninstaller”
2. Next click “Continue”
3. Highlight the device on the left pane.
4. Press and hold control+alt+command on the keyboard simultaneously while you click on “Uninstall”.
5. After you do this, you will see a pop up that asks you if you want to uninstall all HP software. Please note, that in doing this, it will remove any other HP printers that you also have installed.
6. Click “continue” and wait for the program to finish.
7. After it completes, reboot your computer.
Once the computer is back on, do the following steps:
WARNING: This is will delete all of your printers.
1. Go into “System Preferences” and then select either “Print & Scan” or "Print & Fax".
2. Right click (or control + click) on the rectangle listing your printers and then select “Reset Printing System”.
After you have reset the printing system, let's make sure you have the most recent HP driver package installed.
You can do this two ways. First, check for any available HP Update's by clicking the Apple icon and then Software Update. If there are any updates available, they should show up here. However, if the printer is connected by USB, it will not show any available updates. The other option is downloading the drivers from Apple's website.
You can download it here: http://support.apple.com/downloads/DL907/en_US/HPPrinterDrivers2.14.dmg
Once you have downloaded the driver package and completed the installation, you will want to plug your printer back in (if you were using a USB connection). After the printer is plugged back in, go into your print settings under System Preferences > Print & Scan. To add the printer, click the plus sign. You should see your printer listed here. If not, click "Add Printer or Scanner." Click the name of your printer and then click "Use:” box. Make sure that says the name of your printer and not AirPrint. If you are using the printer wirelessly, make sure that the printer "Kind:" is set to Bonjour or Bonjour Multifunction. Click "Add" down in the bottom right hand corner.
This will add your printer back using the most recent HP print driver available through Apple. Let me know if this helps resolve your issue or not. If it doesn't, let me know I will see what else I can do.
Best of luck,
Kyle -

I was trying to print something from the internet and when I did what came out was half of the document. What should have been printed in 1 sheet of paper was printed in 2 and it was only half of the document because the letters and images were too large.
I noticed that when I saved the document from the Internet to my folder the document was in half. I tried to save it again but it didn't work. I tried to fix the printer to see if that was the reason but still I continued to see only half of the document. I tried printing again but still the same thing happened.
I thought it was a problem with my printer but then I remembered that the same thing happened with other PDFs files. I then tried the same thing on Internet Explorer and when I saved the document I saved the whole document not only half of it and the letters and images where not large like when I used Mozilla. I was also able to print the whole document in 1 sheet of paper.
I don't how to solve this problem, thank you for your help and attentionHi efacg,
Most printing issues are solved by resetting the Printing preferences. When you print from Firefox and you click on the down arrow, do you see Defualt and Firefox? Please make changes to the preferences here and preview the document.
If this continues to be an issue please also see [[Fix printing problems in Firefox]]
If there are any other questions, please do not hesitate to ask, we are here to help. -

Where to see the output of my Application Engine Program ?
Folks,
Hello. I am creating my first AE program in Application Designer and test it in the 2-tier mode. I open the AE program in Appication Designer and click Edit ->Run Program. Then open the log file to see its execution and know the AE program is running out. But I don't know where to see the output of the AE program.
The AE program is only executing a SQL "select" statement. Its output is the ResultSet of the SQL.
Do any folks know where to see the output of the AE program ?
Thanks in advanced.The AE program is only executing a SQL "select" statement. Its output is the ResultSet of the SQL.
Do any folks know where to see the output of the AE program ?The output of the select didn't go anywhere. You have to actually do something with the values selected. App Engine selects them and puts them in memory (if you tell it to through %Select), but where those values go depends on you. If you have a DoSelect, then your next action may be an SQL insert/update/delete or even another %Select. If it is another %Select, then I would expect your next action to be Call Section or PeopleCode.
If you just want to select data and print it to the app engine log file, then I would setup a step with a DoSelect/%Select and then a PeopleCode action. In your PeopleCode action, use MessageBox(0, "", 0, 0, "The value in field MYFIELD is " MYREC_AET.MYFIELD);
I wrote a blog post a few years ago with additional tips and tricks for AppEngine output: http://jjmpsj.blogspot.com/2008/05/appengine-output-tricks-reporting.html. -
Ipad refuses to 'see' my printer
I am not at all sure where my problem stems from. My ipad cannot 'see' my printer (and nor can my iphone), but I downloaded the HP printer App and that can find it no problem at all. My Airport Extreme appears to be set up and working properly so I'm a bit lost. Any suggestions??

I have an iMac, where are the completed print jobs stored on the iMac and what format are they?
I have an iMac, where are the completed print jobs stored on the iMac and what format are they?
My OSX is 10.10.1Hi
If you are using standard system or HP drivers, than the jobs contents are not saved at all.
You can see the list of completed jobs per printer via this URL: http://127.0.0.1:631/printers/
If you want to save a print job, you can do it in the print dialog, by selecting an action prom "PDF" popup.
It allows to save a job (prior or instead to printing it) as PDF or PostScript. -
Mac OS X 10.8 (Mountain Lion) doesn't see HP1200 Printer over network
Hopefully somebody can shed some light here -- I have an HP LaserJet 1200 on my ethernet LAN. Have never had any problems setting it up to print using earlier versions of Mac OS or ever Windows -- however as fas as Mountain Lion is concerned the printer doesn't exist. I've downloaded and installed the latest drivers from HP, restarted machine, etc to no avail. Can anybody tell me what I need to do to make 10.8 see the printer across the room?

Yes, XP box will print with no problems. The 'Properties' index was where I got the IP address from. Have looked at the 'ports' tab, have a port number and see that the protocol is 'Raw'. SNMP status is enabled and SNMP devide index is 1. Does this mean anything to you?
Yes it does. XP is using RAW Port 9100 to connect, which is called HP Jetdirect-Socket on OS X. Given that you have already tried creating a printer queue using HP Jetdirect and this did not work, there must be something else that you need to do.
It also sounds odd that the configuration page you printed does not show an IP address set in the printer. Does the Ethernet cable connect directly to the LJ1200, or is there some type of adaptor between the Ethernet and printer? -
Copying using HP office jet pro 8610 where do I find printing using fast draft?
Two questions.
When I print a document from by Macbook Pro, on the print menu it lists presets such as:
Photo Paper
Plain Paper, best
Plain Paper, draft
Plain Paper, draft black and white
Other settings
If I want to copy a document, where on the printer do I find these settings?
My other question is if I want to cancel a print job that I am copying, where do I fin this information?
And if there is any place on the HP site that I can find other info, please let me know.
Thank you so much for your help.
barbHi barb,
For copying, you may click on Copy from the printer front panel, then open the Copy ettings menu by tapping the icon.
Click on Quality and change the print quality as needed.
That can be saved as default by changing the option and then clicking on Set as New Defaults if needed.
For the other question, when the printer process a copy or print job you will see a "printing" header at the top of the screen.
Scroll down your finger from that header and an option to cancel the job will appear on the screen.
You may save the user guide of the printer below, it include each and any options to operate the printer:

6. Performance
1. Release strategy
Use the following objects depending on your BW and R/3 or plug-in releases:
a) General information
The following basic principle applies: The 0IC_C03 InfoCube (material movements) replaces the 0IC_C01 (material movement plant) and 0IC_C02 (material movements storage location) InfoCubes. The 2LIS_03_BX (material stocks) InfoSource or DataSource replaces the 2LIS_40_S278 (transfer BW: stock) 2LIS_03_S197 (material stocks storage location) and 2LIS_03_S198 (material stocks plant) InfoSource or DataSource. The 2LIS_03_BF (material movements) InfoSource or DataSource replaces the 2LIS_03_S195 (material movements storage location) and 2LIS_03_S196 (material movements plant) InfoSource or DataSource.
We therefore STRONGLY recommend that you use the OIC_C03, 2LIS_03_BX, 2LIS_03_BF and 2LIS_03_UM objects. We will continue to deliver and support any other objects mentioned in this note, but only for reasons of downward compatibility. These objects will not be enhanced because they are based on obsolete technology.
For information about the general support for DataSources based on information structures, see also Note 543002.
As of PI 2002.2, the 2LIS_03_BX DataSource is available for Release 4.0B and higher.
As of PI 2001.2, the 2LIS_03_BF and 2LIS_03_UM DataSources are available for Release 4.0B and higher.
The 0IC_C03 InfoCube is available as of Release 3.0B.
b) Recommended objects for BW Release 3.0B and higher
InfoCube: 0IC_C03 (Material movements)
InfoSources and update rules:
2LIS_03_BX (stocks) - available for Release 3.0B as of Support Package 10
2LIS_03_BF (movements)
2LIS_03_UM (revaluations)
If your Support Package version for Release 3.0B is Support Package 9 or lower, you have the alternative option of using the 2LIS_40_S278 InfoSource or DataSource. However, for the reasons stated above, we recommend that you change to 2LIS_03_BX as of Support Package 10. For more information, see Note 588015.
c) Recommended objects for BW Releases 2.0B and 2.1C
InfoSources: 2LIS_03_BX (stocks) - available for Release 2.0B as of Support Package 30
- available for Release 2.1C as ofSupport Package 22
2LIS_03_BF (movements)
2LIS_03_UM (revaluations)
If you are using Release 2.0B Support Package 29 or lower or Release 2.1C Support Package 21 or lower, you can alternatively use the 2LIS_40_S278 InfoSource or DataSource. However, for the reasons given above, we recommend that you change to 2LIS_03_BX as of Support Package 30/Support Package 22. For more information, see Note 588015. Unfortunately, we cannot provide the 0IC_C03 InfoCube and related update rules. If you need to use this InfoCube, we can provide a similar solution to the one provided for Releases 3.0B or higher as part of a consulting project. Note that Note 589024 does not apply in this case.
d) Obsolete objects
If you are using R/3 Release 3.1I and do not intend to upgrade to a higher release (regardless of the BW release) in the foreseeable future, use only the 0IC_C01 and 0IC_C02 InfoCubes and the related InfoSources or DataSources 2LIS_03_S195 - 2LIS_03_S198. If you are using the Healthcare industry solution and are interested in using the 0IC_C01_Q0020 and 0IC_C01_Q0021 queries, you can also use the 0IC_C01 InfoCube and related objects. Unfortunately, there is no automatic data migration for the transition from 0IC_C01/2 to 0IC_C03. See also Note 804781 for a complete overview of all key figures in 0IC_C03 that are also possible in 0IC_C01/2.
e) Queries/Web templates of the 0IC_01, 0IC_C02 and 0IC_C03 InfoCubes
For more information, see Note 591063.

3. Extracting non-cumulative data from R/3
This section explains the extraction process in the R/3 system and it gives an overview of known errors and their solutions.
a) Explanations for the extraction
Determining transaction keys
Note 492828
Determining the component
When stocks are initialized, the 'MM' core application is transferred, regardless of which component you specify in Customizing under 'Specify Industry' (TAC MCB_). You must implement Note 323018 for this purpose.
In most cases, the 'MM' Core application is also used when you initialize documents and for the delta load. However, 'IS-R' is transferred as the component if Retail is set as the component and you are working with stock transfers or movements for material group articles (MATNR <> MATBF).
To create the component, the BW enrichment is required during extraction. For more information, see Notes 315880 and 353042.
The "GETSYSDEF" report provides the system setting.
Creating non-cumulative relevance
In general, the non-cumulative relevance is set to '1', meaning 'relevant'. The exceptions are consumption postings (BSTTYP = V and BSTAUS = V) and postings for material group articles (MATNR <> MATBF). Value '2' is assigned in these cases.
Logistics data extraction: Customizing Cockpit (transaction LBWE)
You can configure the 2LIS_03_BF und 2LIS_03_UM DataSources in application 03. You cannot configure the 2LIS_03_BX DataSource in the Customizing Cockpit. To activate the 2LIS_03_BX DataSource, see Note 631345.
Generic extraction of stocks
This function is available as of PI 2003.1. For lower release levels, a consulting solution can be implemented on request (contact SAP in this case).
User exit (SAP enhancement RSAP0001)
Note 413807
Update methods/extract structures/XPRAs
i Update methods (V3 update, DeltaQueue, and so on).
Notes 380078, 396647, 486784 and 505700.
For information about the automatic conversion of update methods in the logistics extraction, refer to the release notes for plug-in 2003.1
DataSources for application 03 are delivered by default with the "Unserialized V3 Update" method.
A change to "Queued Delta" may occur.
For performance reasons, you should not select "Direct Delta".
ii Changes to extract structures/XPRAs
Notes 328181, 489259, 511657 and 566917.
If you try to add another field from the pool to the "2LIS_03_BF" DataSource , the system issues error message "D0 322".
Possible reason:
XPRA "RMCSBWXP_IM_01" did not run after you imported the plug-in. This XPRA is responsible for comparing customer fields in the extract structure (enhancement) with new default fields in the extract structure (SAP). This error message appears as a result.
b) Known errors
Stocks, movements and revaluations are transferred to BW using various extractors. All known errors and proposed solutions of these three extractors are listed below.

c) Update rules
The following special features are provided for updating in non-cumulative cubes:
The non-cumulative key figure has to be included with the relevant cumulative value(s) in the InfoCube definition.
Only receipt key figures are provided for updating from the InfoSource with the stocks.
The issue and receipt key figures are provided for updating from the InfoSource with movements.
Therefore, from a technical point of view, stocks are written to the receipt key figure. The process of differentiating between the stocks and the remaining receipts then takes place in the InfoCube using record type = 1 (InfoObject: 0RECORDTP) in the technical dimension table (this also sets up the connection to the validity table).
The OLAP processor dynamically calculates non-cumulative key figures in the query (taking into account the issues/receipts and the validity table).

"How to... Realize summarized display of stock values on storage"
Stock transfers in the two-step stock transfer procedure/differences between analyses in BW and the R/3 transaction MB5B
If you notice different results for the issue and receipt quantities of the total stock during the analysis of stock transfers in the two-step procedure, for example, storage location to storage location within a plant (movement types 351 and 101), add the "0STOCKTYPE" characteristic to the drilldown. Where necessary, filter according to the values "A" (unrestricted) and "H" (transit). You will then find the same values under stock type "A" and in transaction MB5B (if you select the storage location stock or the valuated stock).
Individual analysis of revaluations
After stock is initialized using the 2LIS_03_BX InfoSource, load revaluations into the 0IC_C03 InfoCube with the 2LIS_03_UM InfoSource. By doing this, you avoid uploading movements with the 2LIS_03_BF InfoSource. If you do so, the non-cumulative values (quantities and values) can no longer be calculated. Reason: When you initialize stocks, DIM IDs are created for 0BASE_UOM and 0LOC_CURRCY. As a result, all stock markers for 0BASE_UOM have an entry other than ' '. With revaluations, only values are updated-all quantities and their units are updated with ' '. This means that you can no longer assign revaluations to the stock markers because the units of measure are inconsistent. Solution: Update the revaluations with quantities also, as you did for the values (the result for the quantities is always RESULT = 0).
Incorrect results if quantity key figures and value key figures are analyzed together.
For example, you only displayed quantity key figures in the current drilldown. If you now add value key figures, the quantity key figures are no longer calculated correctly (the reverse also applies). As in the case of individual analyses of revaluations, movements may not be assigned to the stock markers due to missing DIM IDs. As a result, stock cannot be recalculated correctly either. This should not usually occur when the 0IC_C03 InfoCube is filled with the 2LIS_03_BX, 2LIS_03_BF and 2LIS_03_UM InfoSources (this is also the case with the other relevant Business Content InfoCubes, for example 0CP_IC_C1 or 0RT_C36/37). However, it may occur because of certain loading processes, for example. Solution: Update the quantities (or values) in the same way as the values (or quantities) (RESULT = 0 is always the result for the quantities or values). See Note 643291 for the 0CP_IC_C1 InfoCube.
Enhancing the 0IC_C03 InfoCube with additional characteristics
These additional characteristics must be updated from the 2LIS_03_BX InfoSource, as well as from the 2LIS_03_BF and 2LIS_03_UM InfoSources, only then can movements be assigned to stock markers (see the two preceding points).
The following enhancements are possible:
1. Valuation type (0VAL_TYPE)
Source field from 2LIS_03_BX/BF: BWTAR
2. Company code (0COMP_CODE)
Source field from 2LIS_03_BF/UM: BUKRS
3. Valuation area (0ID_VALAREA)
Source field from 2LIS_03_BX/BF/UM: BWKEY
4. Vendor (0VENDOR/0GN_VENDOR) - for vendor consignment stocks
Source field from 2LIS_03_BX/BF/UM: LIFNR
This is delivered with BI Content 3.3 Add-On (see SRM Business Content Online documentation).
5. Customer (0CUSTOMER) - for consignment stocks at customer
Source field from 2LIS_03_BX/BF/UM: KUNNR
6. Sales order (0DOC_NUMBER/0S_ORD_ITEM) - for sales order stocks
Source field from 2LIS_03_BX/BF: KDAUF/KDPOS
7. Project number (0WBS_ELEMT) - for project stocks
Source field from 2LIS_03_BX/BF: PS_PSP_PNR
8. Evaluation class (0VAL_CLASS)
Source field from 2LIS_03_BX/BF/UM: BKLAS (Note 684789)
Enhancement possibilities for 2LIS_03_BX:
Note that the 2LIS_03_BX DataSource cannot be extended in the same way as the 2LIS_03_BF DataSource, for example.
Only SAP can enhance this DataSource (Note 684789).
Other enhancements are no longer useful since fields, such as the movement type, G/L account or profit center do not in appear in the stock tables (for example, MARC and MARD) but only in the movement tables (for instance, MSEG).
Evaluation restrictions that occur as a result (similar to the two preceding points) can only be resolved by a data enhancement (for example, reading from a DataStore object with all material movements) subsequent to the extraction or by not using 2LIS_03_BX. In both cases, all material movements must exist in the source system. If this is not the case, you must read from the corresponding archive files for the extraction.
Changing the exception-aggregation of the stock key figures
There is a predefined exception aggregation for stock key figures (for example, "last value") in the key figure definition. If you want to override these in the query definition, proceed as follows:
-> Create a new calculated key figure.
-> Drag the relevant basic key figure to the formula area.
-> Choose "OK".
-> In the next window, choose "Extend >>".
-> Then, maintain the required exception aggregation and the reference characteristic.
Mapping FIFO logic
The data structures in the 0IC_C03 InfoCube allow FIFO logic to be mapped using the relevant query definitions. In this case, contact your SAP consultant.
Unexpected or negative stock values due to FI document summarization
If FI document summarization is activated for the MATNR field, revaluations (2LIS_03_UM) are transferred to BW without a material number. As a result, complete analyses are no longer possible at material number level. For more information, see Notes 36353 and 497992.
Options for the R/3 and BW data verification/consistency check

Snapshot scenario
The "How to" document mentioned in section 2 b) "How to... handle inventory management scenarios in SAP BW 3.x" (pdf)" contains important information about the advantages and disadvantages of mapping stocks using a snapshot procedure.
Validity period of stocks
You can use transaction RSDV to determine the time period in which stocks can be calculated. This time period is determined automatically by the oldest and the most recent material movement. If you have a reporting requirement to display further stocks in the past, you can use the RSDG_CUBE_VALT_MODIFY report to manually change the time period.
Evaluations of cross-company code stock transfers.
Corresponding reports are currently not possible using the 2LIS_03_BX/BF/UM DataSources. For further information, see the following "How t"o document:
-> http://service.sap.com/bw
-> In the navigation area on the left: Services & Implementation
-> HOW TO ... Guides -> Guide List for SAP BW3.0B/BW3.1 ->
"How to... Report on cross company stock in transit", which allows you to carry out evaluations in BW similar to the ones in R/3 transaction "MB5T".
0IC_C03 data modeling
Due to the different characteristic value calculation for stock quantities and values, a MultiCube scenario ("sparse tables") is useful in this case, one InfoCube for quantities and one for values.
You can then execute common stock quantities, values and evaluations using queries on a MultiCube.
The 0IC_C03 InfoCube currently uses a key figure model (various specific key figures, such as inspection stock, stock in transit and so on). In this case, an account model is suitable:
- Three key figures: Stock quantity, stock value and valuated stock quantity (including the movement key figures)
- Based on stock instance/type, you can then limit the query to the special stock
- Advantage: Uses less database space
- Disadvantage: The load for the OLAP processor is higher and there is more work during the query definition, the other approach may also be more transparent for the end user.
Inventory management and ODS
ODS objects cannot admit any stock key figures (see Notes 752492 and 782314) and, among other things, they do not have a validity table, which would be necessary. Therefore, ODS objects cannot be used as non-cumulative InfoCubes, that is, they cannot calculate stocks in terms of BW technology.
In this connection, you should use the ODS technology only for:
- Document-related reporting or the Enterprise DataWarehouse layer based on the 2LIS_03_BX/BF/UM InfoSources (see Notes 581778 and 747037).
- The implementation of a snapshot scenario; see the How to document mentioned in section 2 b) for more information:
"How to... handle inventory management scenarios in SAP BW 3.x" (pdf)
Implement Note 773823 to be able to update the 2LIS_03_BX InfoSource to an ODS.
If you want to activate another ODS object for the 2LIS_03_BF and 2LIS_03_UM DataSources before the 0IC_C03 InfoCube, we recommend a parallel update.
However, if you want the InfoCube to be filled by a subsequent update from the ODS, take the following into account:
Documents that are entered after the stock initialization (CPUDT field > stock initialization key date) and are posted back to a period before the stock initialization (BUDAT field < stock initialization key date),
must be updated with a delta request in the InfoCube, because only these requests can be compressed with a stock marker update.
Therefore, mechanisms for which the movements are different before and after the stock initialization (as a result of restrictions on the posting date) are incorrect in this case. However, if you want to work with the requests in question, you must restrict the movements using the date of entry (CPUDT). Otherwise the stock evaluations will be incorrect due to the compression logic used.
The same problem occurs if documents are posted to the future (CPUDT field > stock initialization key date and BUDAT field > stock initialization key date).
Posting to a prior period and postings to the future
If you can post this type of material documents in the system, take note of the documents that caused the initialization run (transaction MCNB, or report RMCBINIT_BW)during the reconstruction in R/3 (transaction OLI1BW, or report RMCBNEUA):
1. BUDAT < stock initialization key date and CPUDT > stock initialization key date
You execute the report with a date restriction (for example, upper limit = key date of stock initialization) to avoid a posting block.
-> Postings to a prior period are selected by mistake.
-> Solution: You MUST set a posting lock (if this is not possible, it may help to select according to the document number).
2. BUDAT > stock initialization key date and CPUDT < stock initialization key date
Here the same applies as described under point 1, however, the documents are then missing in the setup table. You can still make restrictions according to the posting date but you must set a relatively high upper limit.

6. Performance
a) General BW/logistics extraction (TSV_TNEW_PAGE_ALLOC_FAILED/ SYSTEM_IMODE_TOO_LARGE)
Notes 409641, 417307, 419465, 548845 and 589997
b) Extraction 2LIS_03_BX
The recommended setting in the RMCBINIT_BW report for 'Number of data records per LUW' is 5000. Higher values may cause the following errors:
TSV_TNEW_PAGE_ALLOC_FAILED
TSV_TNEW_BLOCKS_NO_ROLL_MEMORY
TSV_LIN_ALLOC_FAILED
You can reduce an extremely long runtime by setting up the stock individually for each plant. For more information, see Note 728360.
When you run the report, the "Transfer Zero Stocks" option must NOT be active, because this will significantly increase the runtime.
This is no longer required as of Note 823951 (for more information, see Note 655798).
c) Extraction 2LIS_03_UM
Notes 537235 and 585750
d) Extraction 2LIS_03_BF
Note 454267
e) Warehouse
Due to the stock marker generation technology, it is normal for the E table to be larger than the F table in the non-cumulative InfoCubes.
As a result of the different updating of stock quantities and values (see Note 589024) required by the R/3 data model, movement data usually generates two entries in the F table.
To reduce the data volume of the 0IC_C03 InfoCube, you can distribute quantity and value key figures to two InfoCubes. As a result, the key figures have the same characteristic value update again. You can then use MultiCubes to execute common evaluations of quantities and values.

OK great info!
I found 2 possible ethernet to USB adapters:
By "Plugable": USB 2.0 to ethernet LAN wired network adapter - seems this will work, but I'll contact Plugable.
2. Apple USB Ethernet Adapter
Easily connect your MacBook Air computer to an Ethernet network with the Apple USB Ethernet Adapter. Small and light, it connects to the USB 2.0 port of your MacBook Air and provides an RJ-45 connector that supports 10/100BASE-T performance. BUT NOT SURE IF THIS WILL WORK ON ANYTHING BUT a MacBook Air…
One person commented:
This little gem used to be the device of choice for adding a second Ethernet interface to a Mac Mini Server and I'd been using one that way for about a year. After doing a software update to 10.6.6 it stopped working. Forewarned is forearmed – it appears that Apple is finally enforcing the MacBook Air system requirement.
Thanks for any additional comments.
