What is the equivalence of Edit Sequence in QuickBooks POS? - quickbooks

Does anyone know what is the equivalence of EditSequence (in Quickbooks) for QuickBooks Point Of Sale?
Apparently I found, there is none.

There is not an editsequence in POS.

IBM SPSS Data Collection Professional Survey Activation Problem

I'm hoping someone will be able to help me out here.
I need to activate a survey via spss data collection professional. But i'm getting error at the end of activation.
Error;
Unable to merge questionnaire documents.
The following error(s) occurred during the merge: - FATAL,Failed to merge documents Unable to merge due to conflicts: Q8 : Object exist in previous version with different DataType
This may have been caused by a variable which has changed it s question type
Could you please help me? What i need to do?
Thanks in advance.
Sincerely,
since the previous responses didn't actually answer your question, here's a way to fix your problem: rename Q8 in your original metadata, e.g. 'Q8_revised' (or better, a more descriptive name) using Professional. Activation will then not throw an error anymore. When exporting, you will get both variables in your output (if you export all versions).
Background: The reason your problem occurs is that after activating a questionnaire, respondents may have posted answers to questions, which would make analysis (to say the least) confusing if Q8 would exist with answers in different types. Data Collection will lock main question types: Categorical, Text, Long (integers), Double (decimals). You can, however, add or remove answer categories, numbers of allowed categorical answers and the permitted ranges/lengths for the other question types.
Finally, Data Collection will store the actual questionnaire (metadata) version used by each respondent so you will be able to always determine what was actually shown to the respondent when taking the survey, improving the analysis.
IBM divested the SPSS Data Collection software effective October 31, 2015.

A bit late to the party but if you deployed once, you can't change any of the survey's question types: if you had, say, a categorical question named Q1, you can't change it into a loop or an open ended question; you must use a different question ID in that case (Q1_A or something else, but not Q1: Q1 is already defined as categorical type in the DB).

Neo4j using Keywords for label/node/relatonship names

So I've been playing around with Neo4j recently and to my surprise I figured it is possible to set label, node or relationship name to Keyword (MATCH,CREATE,ORDER ... ). I am aware that this is very bad practice.
CREATE (s:CREATE{CREATE: "something"}) RETURN s
But my question is: "Does this result only in less transparet queries or are there consequently any possible errors? If errors could occur, why is it even allowed?"
I know it is a silly question, but nowhere in the neo4j docs I have not found the answer.
I believe the syntax tree is such that the parser shouldn't ever be confused by whether it's evaluating a keyword, label, property, or some other piece.
I don't believe we've seen any issues related to this, at least from versions 3.0 and up (I wasn't around in the pre-3.0 days).

Making custom slots using Regex in amazon Lex

I want to make custom slots that accepts any and all entries as long as those entries follow a certain regex pattern, eg:any number of alphabets or numbers but without a space in between. Can anyone tell me if there is a way in amazon lex to achieve it?
Also, if I want to take a certain type of data, say, email ids, but want to give the user option to give any number of email ids (more than one), what is the way to do that.
I am new to Amazon Lex and any suggestions would be appreciated.
Make a slot in Lex console in your intent but do not tick as required, and give any type as slot type.
Now in lambda code, first set the slot to null and then parse the inputText using regex and assign the correct value to the slot.
This way both of your problems will be addressed.
Hope it helps. Let us know if you run in any problems.

biopython qblast function no data returned

I'm trying to blast an 8-mer (string of length 8) against the NCBI database. However, whenever I use qblast, it comes up empty with respect to matches. This is my code:
from Bio.Blast.NCBIWWW import qblast
import Bio.Blast.NCBIXML as parser
a = qblast('blastp','nr','GGMPSGCS')
b = parser.read(a)
print b.alignments`
Whenever I do this, it just prints the empty list []. Why is this happening? Can anyone shine a light on it?
I can get a match using the NCBI online BLAST tool, and I can even get a match if I use a longer kmer like "SSRVQDGMGLYTARRVR". It just happens that all the 8-mers I search come up empty.
From the FAQ at http://biopython.org/DIST/docs/tutorial/Tutorial.html
Why doesn’t Bio.Blast.NCBIWWW.qblast() give the same results as the NCBI BLAST website?
You need to specify the same options – the NCBI often adjust the default settings on the >website, and they do not match the QBLAST defaults anymore. Check things like the gap >penalties and expectation threshold.
Check that qblast is using the same defaults, if not sure, make them explicit. I wouldn't be surprised if it's doing some sort of "read to short" filtering step.
As in this answer, you have to fine-tuning the qblast to override the defaults. The WWW frontend of NCBI-BLAST automatically adjusts your parameters to match the short (8 bp) sequences, but if you do it through Biopython API you have to do it manually.

Is Oracle's syntax diagram for PL/SQL blocks wrong?

I suspect that the syntax diagram for a plsql_block as given in the
Oracle® Database PL/SQL Language Reference for Relese 2 is wrong.
(For reference, here's the current link to that document)
The following piece of PL/SQL compiles fine:
declare
cursor
cursor_definition
is select * from dual;
variable_declaration number;
begin
null;
end;
The following statements are assumptions that I make based on the piece of PL/SQL above and based on Oracle's syntax diagram.
The declare section (above) consists of a cursor definition followed by a variable declaration (which in turn is an item declaration).
An item declaration can only be an element of an item list 1.
A cursor definition can only be an element of an item list 2.
An item list 2 can never be followed by an item list 1.
Now, the variable declaration following the cursor definition contradicts point 4. Therefore I conclude that the
syntax diagram is wrong.
Maybe I am overlooking something, in which case I'd be very grateful for pointing this out to me.
Please understand that a wrong syntax diagram per se is no big deal to me. But I am in the process of writing a PL/SQL parser
and the parser stumbles for the exact situation given with the example PL/SQL code. So, in order to improve the parser, I'd like
to have a more authorative sequence diagram.
I concur. The syntax diagrams explicitly state that a plsql_block is effectively item_list_2 preceded by an optional item_list_1.
Further, cursor definitions (with the is bit) can only occur in item_list_2 and variable declarations (with or without an =) are part of the item_declaration set and can therefore only be in item_list_1.
Those facts make your code sample incorrect so, if it manages to compile, then either:
the syntax diagrams are wrong; or
the compiler doesn't follow them to the letter; or
your looking at code that's covered by different syntax diagrams.
On that last bullet point, interestingly enough, the syntax diagrams for 11.1 are slightly different.
The declare section can be item_list_1 or item_list_2 or item_list_1 followed by item_list_2.
Where it gets interesting is that item_list_1 can have any number of item_declaration entries and this includes both variable_declaration and cursor_declaration.
In 11.1, a cursor_declaration can be either a declaration or a definition, based on the language elements in 11.2 (in other words, there is no cursor_definition type since the declaration allows both in the declaration).
So what you have is perfectly valid in 11.1 so the first thing I'd check is that you're actually running 11.2 where that successful compilation is taking place.
It's still possible of course that you're running 11.2 and the syntax diagrams are wrong, in which case you should complain bitterly to Oracle but I don't know what sort of a response you'll get from a company whose flagship database product can't tell the difference between an empty varchar and a NULL (a).
(a) I'll never pass up an opportunity to mention this and advance the cause of my beloved DB2 :-)
