Definition of Sales & Distribution#

For the representation of your company structures in the SAP System, different organizational units are available for the areas of sales, shipping and billing.

In general, these elements are not sufficient for individual demands. Extend the elements accordingly.

Some Questions to Ask Before You Join a Startup

Joining a startup can be an exciting and rewarding career move, but it also comes with risks and challenges. You need to do your homework and understand what you’re signing up for. Here are 10 questions you should ask before accepting a job offer from a startup.

How much cash do you have on hand?#

This is a straightforward question that requires a clear answer. You want to know how much money the startup has in the bank, not how much it expects to raise or borrow. A promise of money is not the same as money in the bank. If the startup runs out of cash, it will go out of business.

Flash z-order — always on top?

I had a problem with a javascript pull-down menu that overlapped with a flash movie. The menu always appeared BEHIND the flash movie, regardless of the z-order. I solved it by:

  • Adding the parameter <param name="wmode" value="transparent"> to the OBJECT tag.
  • Adding the parameter wmode="transparent" to the EMBED tag.

These parameters made the menu display correctly over the flash movie.
