Why do we put similar infoobjects into single dimension.

Why do we put similar infoobjects(Char ex: 0material, 0matl_type, 0matl_group, 0matl_cat, 0mat_plant) into single dimension(MATERIAL DIMENSION). and other similar like(0CUSTOMER, 0SHIP_STCK, 0SOLD_TO, 0DIVISION, ZORD_MAT) into single dimension(CUSTOMER DIMENSION), What will happen if i put all these infoobjects into single Dimension, Can some one answer me in the system prospect, data base prospect as well as performace point of view or may in general.
Points will be given.............. thats what u definitely deserve for a right answer.

Santosh,
This is an important thing while deciding upon the dimensions. Its not the similar things we are putting together but based on the data realtion and cardinality we put the chars in a dimension. If dimensions are not properly designed the tables size increases drastically and lead to poor performance. Taking an example the relation between the chars in a dimension should be 1:m and not n:m. A material can have one material type and belons to one materila group for a plant is the relation which is a 1:n relation. Chars with high cardinality are put in separate dimensions instead of grouping with other chars.
The grouping of classification groups (characteristics) whose content is logically connected, under a single generic term. If the dimension contains a characteristic whose value already uniquely determines the values of all other characteristics from a business-orientated viewpoint, then the dimension is named after this characteristic.

Similar channel into single channel

Dear All,
Is there any way to merge the multiple similar channel to single channel without flattening layers.
If pantone reflex blue 3 times is there means i need to merge it into single reflex blue channel.
Pls help..
Thank you,
Joe

Yes spot channel only and in Same document itself.
And the above script need to run in Extend tool script?. Coz by this script there is no changes happening.
By using Apply image can merge only two channels at a time. And after merged into a single channel source channel also remains.
For ex, Pantone Reflex Blue 1
Pantone Reflex Blue 2
Now i need to merge into 1. so after Merging by using Apply image
Pantone Reflex Blue 1 2
Pantone Reflex Blue 2 (But this is to be automatically deleted after merging, which is not possible by using Apply image)
By using the script this needs to be recover
1) In channel options
Color indicates - Spot Color
Color - Reflex Blue
Solidity - 0%
In same way i have taken the separation in different area of my image with same spot color.
2) If process color are taken as spot channel that also need to merge with process channel (CMYK)
Color indicates - Spot color
Color - C100%
Solidity - 0%
If this is option selected in this channel to be merge with Cyan process color channel.
By using Apply image option i used to give Multiply only and Opacity to 100%. Same need to apply this script. Pls help..
Thank you,
Joe

Adding More InfoObjects into a Dimension

Hi Team,
I have enhanced 2lis_11_vahdr with 5 partner functions (in 7.0).
In order to load the data into 2sd_c03 ,
Would it be OK to add these 5 infoobjects into the CUSTOMER dimension which already has 10 info objects.?
Is there a better way to handle this.?
My generic question is how many infoobjects should a Dimension contain for optimal purposes.?
Thanks for your time.

I am not sure if there is limit on the number of char you can have in the dim table, you can have all the char added to the customer master data but if you need any of the fields added is required for nav. then you need to turn it on as nav. attribute which will slow down the query peformance. Instead you could just add the fields in the cube in one of the dim related to customer so that your query performance is not affected, but the problem with is this that if one of the attribute you just added changed over time, the user will see the historical value of the attribute but not the new one. So, basically based on the scenario you have, you can come up to the best approach.
thanks.

CLUB similar items into single item

In 0PROFIT_CTR, I have values like
555, 555_US, 555_CA, 555_MX
777,777_US, 777_CA,777_MX
In my BEX output, I need to show all 555 series as 555 and 777 series as 777
What is the best way to do it.
Thanks

Hi Jagannadha,
In transformation level, write this field routine in your 0PROFIT_CTR:
RESULT = SOURCE_FIELDS-PROFIT_CTR(3).
So that you will only get the first 3 characters of your PROFIT_CTR..Then in reporting you will have the all 555 series combined as 555..
OR
If your PROFIT_CTR is keyfield, you create an object similar to your PROFIT_CTR (let's call it ZPRFT_CTR) and do the routine above in the new object..Using this, your original data in PROFIT_CTR will be retained..
Then in your query designer, you use the ZPRFT_CTR to be able to get all 555 series as 555..

Why is Merge into single pdf using InDesign CS3 and not CS4 ?

I'm new to this so the question may be trivial, but it beats me:
I've created some InDesign files in CS4 and want to combine them into one PDF. So I opened Acrobat 9 Pro and
navigated to "Merge files into single pdf". I chose the CS4 InDesign files to Add and clicked the Combine Files button.
BUT, this starts up InDesign CS3 and not InDesign CS4 and returns a pop-up saying "unidentified error".
Why is starting CS3 InDesign and not CS4, and what is the "unidentified" error ! ?
As background I intially installed CS3 and then updated to CS4, leaving the CS3 applications intact. When I initially
bought CS3, just before CS4 was released I may have created pdfs from InDesign as an experiment, but it is possible I have not done this
since upgrading to CS4.
Thanks for any help

Thanks Michael, I was not aware of quality issues. Actually this is not really significant for my usage this time. What I'm doing is just using ID to capture notes/images/links etc in several free format ID documents. I then planned to merge them quickly into one pdf using Acrobat. I can easily shuffle the file order around to create a handy portable pdf reference document with the Merge feature.
Doing something similar from ID seemed to me to require me to create pdfs for each ID doc and them to merge them in Acrobat. I did start to write a simple script to do this in ID, but I then realised that I wanted the ordering to vary and the ID files would likely to change. Then I found the merge and bingo, that solved it..... Well it solved it on another CS4 installation that had never seen CS3, but not on my machine which had been upgraded from CS3.
I tried looking in the registry for obvious entries that might point Acrobat to use ID CS3 rather than CS4, but couldn't spot anything. I wonder if there is something buried in there ?
Thanks again for helping
Regards.

Why do we need to put \\\\ for inserting a single \

Hi,
I wanted to replace the string h"i with h'i. The following code does that.
public class replace {
     public static void main(String a[]) {
          String hel = "h\"i";
          System.out.println(hel);
          hel = hel.replaceAll("\"","\\\\");
          System.out.println(hel);
My question is why do we need to put 4(\\\\) back slash for inserting a single \? Why not just put 2(\\) back slash? Your help is appreciated.
Sundar.

Hi,
Could you please explain bit more on this. Im talking about the second argument in replaceAll method.
All i want is to replace the double quote in the string h"i with h\i.
Why cant the code look like this hel = hel.replaceAll("\"","\\");
If i use this code i get the following exception.
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.StringIndexOutOfBoundsException: String index out of range: 1

Why can't i put my emails into folders

why can't i put my emails into folders

You must have an IMAP email accounts in order to create additional folders in the mail app on the iPad. There is now way to create folders locally like you can on a computer if you are using a POP email account.
If you go to your email account in the Mail app and look at the window where your inbox, trash folder and sent folder are - if there is an Edit button at the top of the window - tap that and then tap Add Mailbox at the bottom.
If the Edit button is not there - you cannot create folders on the iPad. Your email account is not IMAP. Only IMAP email accounts can create folders on the iPad. Any folders that you would already have in an IMAP account would sync to the device as well.

Why can't I put News stand into a folder?

I want to know why I can put iBook into a folder but not Newstand? I have no intention of using it right now and don't want to look at an empty stand on my page. Any suggestions?

There is a work around for Newstand to be added to a folder like with all the other apps:
First, take two apps and create a folder. Second, as soon as the apps are in the folder, drag Newsstand into the folder too. As long as you’re quick enough, Newsstand will go into the folder!
This next step is vital as if you dont follow this step then you will crash Newsstand:
If you open Newsstand while it’s in a folder your springboard will crash. If you want to use Newsstand at some point just take it out of the folder and you’re good to go!

HI, can you tell us how you know it's Safe Mode?
Not sure if this applies to the new Macs, but if not I doubt it'll hurt anything...

Why does Discoverer put my custom function into GROUP BY

To make things clear with simple example:
I have 10 id's from people (people.id) and sum function on their salary [sum(people.salary)] during a period of time that i set in my parameters.
The sql looks something like this:
SELECT PEOPLE.ID
,SUM(PEOPLE.SALARY)
FROM FRS_PEOPLE
WHERE [MY CONDITIONS]
GROUP BY PEOPLE.ID
I registered a function that uses people.id, and some other parameters to calculate something for each people.id!
I made a calculation:
MY_FUNCTION(people.id,'xxx','yyy')
,so my sql looks like this now:
SELECT PEOPLE.ID
,SUM(PEOPLE.SALARY)
,MY_FUNCTION(people.id,':xxx',':yyy')
FROM FRS_PEOPLE
WHERE [MY CONDITIONS]
GROUP BY PEOPLE.ID,MY_FUNCTION(people.id,':xxx',':yyy')
It runs but never finishes....?!
When i run my sql in sqlplus i do not put my function into group by, but discoverer does so, despite it already has people.id item in GROUP BY!
And if i put instead of people.id an actual id it works correctly and does not put my function into group by!
The sql i am looking for and works correctly is:
SELECT PEOPLE.ID
,SUM(PEOPLE.SALARY)
,MY_FUNCTION(people.id,'xxx','yyy')
FROM FRS_PEOPLE
WHERE [MY CONDITIONS]
GROUP BY PEOPLE.ID
Please someone help!
My select clause is much more complicated, with many outer joins so i made the above up just to explain to you what my problem is!
I hope i made my self clear!
Help would be very appreciated.

Hi,
I think there is a problem with your function. That fact that the report completes when an actual id is used must not when a people.id is used suggests that it works when the function is called once with an actual id but not when it is called many times with a people.id.
If the function is doing complex lookups and calculations to obtain a salary for each people.id then often this type of report will run quicker with the salary calculation is brought into the report SQL using joins etc.
Tracing the Discoverer session running the report will show you all the SQL processed by the database and the execution plans used. It will show you how often the function is being called and what SQL is being run by the function.

How to split a parallell-page PDF into single-page PDF

My situation: I have a few hundred pages of files I made quite a few years ago, optimized for "self-publishing" via the printer. I no longer have any source files (my own bad). These files have 2 pages next to each other in an A4 landscape PDF. I would like to change and combine these files into a US Letter portrait PDF.
I have browsed earlier, similar threads, most notably the most referred to thread:
http://forums.adobe.com/message/3331516
which recommends using Adobe PDF printer. However, as this thread points out, and as I for one have found on my own system (10.8.3), Adobe PDF printer is no longer an option on Mac OS X (version 10.6 and on):
http://forums.adobe.com/thread/556366
So the question then is: How do we now split double-page landscape PDFs into single-page portrait PDFs?

Since at least OSX.5 adobe has removed PDF Printer which was begining to fail it was written in Adobe's altered version of javascript and it was a wonder it was working to begin with They replaced it with an Automator action that's called up through the print Driver.
Here are the steps for applications other than Acrobat.
create you doucument. laying it out the way you want it.
Go to Print menu.
click and hold the pdf button - a context menu pops up.
now scan the list of choices and choose Adobe PDF or Adobe Quality PDF (depends on version of OS)
wait for direction fields to come up and make the desired choices (the first screen is basically job options).
when asked ask for name either ecept name give or choose name of your choice.
Browse to desired location for file
then click save.
How the PDF is layed out in acrobat is determinedby acrobat. Adobe add an additional Layer on top of the Print Driver. You can by pass it and use the Print Driver but if there is an orientation switch in your docment the page is turned so everything comes out with same edge of Paper
Oh, look out for a Grand idea Adobe did that even Forest Gump would have left alone.
If you want to do duplex printing to a PDF with more than one page you won't be able to do so whether you have your printer setup for duplex printing. You can go back and forth from printer setting s to Printer setting toggling off and on til you turn blue in the face. You have to go into the document properties and loo for a command called SIMPLEX printing its on by default and needs to be turned off. Even my cat Boots would be smart enough not to put that in.
This settinging does not permanently turn off and you have to do with each document you create or resave.

Batch Merge Files Into Single PDF

Just wanted to know if there's a way on Acrobat 9 Pro,i can select a folder using Merge Files Into Single PDF and have it merge each of the subfolders in the folder into separate single PDFs and have then retain the names of their corresponding subfolders? At the moment i'm having to do one folder at a time and then name them.
Any help would be great
[Thread moved from comments forum to Acrobat forum]

Hello again. I took the long weekend off, so haven't replied for a while.
While trying to set up a few documents out of the package I wanted to create, I discovered that there
is only one file that is causing the problem.
The biggest problem is that it is a confidential financial file, and I'm loathe to put it up on the web.
I'm going to try to re-create the file without the confidential part, then send it to this forum. I can't
figure out why it should cause problems when all the others don't and they have all been created by
the same person with the same version of Office.
So thanks for your help so far. I really appreciate the quick response from a couple of you. I will get back to you.
