Notes on Costing

Bagaimana ketahui bhw sebuah sales return dibuat dg exact-cost-reversing (aka. fixed-application) ?
Lihat apakah di table Item Application Entry utk retur tsb, field Outbound Entry No. terisi

Tg 7 JULI sudah jalankan ACIE dg Allow From 1 JUNI
Hr ini tg 12 JULI leo minta ACIE lagi. Perlukah ?
JAWAB :
VE: Filter entry SETELAH ACIE terakhir, cari apakah ada VALUATION DATE dg bln JUNI
Jika ada dan ACIE tidak dijalankan, maka akan ada hasil ACIE utk entry2 tsb yg nantinya akan jatuh di 1 JULI (Allow From saat ACIE berikutnya )

(v2016) Adjust Cost - Item Entries Batch Job
The program uses the posting date of the original value entry in the adjustment entry, unless that date is in a closed inventory period. In that case, the program uses the starting date of the next open inventory period. If inventory periods are not used, the date in the Allow Posting From field of the General Ledger Setup window will define when the adjustment entry is posted.

Posting Date on Adjustment Value Entry
Version 3.70.B..4.0
In the request form of the Adjust Cost - Item Entries batch job there is a Closed Period Entry Posting Date to be entered by the user. The batch job runs through all necessary changes and creates value entries with the posting date of the parent item ledger entry (shipment date of the sale that the adjustment address). If the posting date of the parent item ledger entry is not within allowed posting date range the posting date stated as Closed Period Entry Posting Date will be assigned the Adjustment Value Entry. A date is considered to be in a closed period when it is earlier than the date in the Allow Posting From field in the General Ledger Setup.
From version 5.0:
There is no longer a posting date to be stated in the request form of the Adjust Cost - Item entries batch job. The batch job runs through all necessary changes and creates value entries with the posting date of the value entry it adjusts. If the posting date is not within allowed posting date range the posting date in the Allow Posting From field in the General Ledger Setup, OR if the Inventory periods are used, the later date of the two will be used. See described concept above.

Why you have Negative Inventory Value with 0 Quantity – Navision 3.7b to Navision 5.0
If the adjust cost is processed on 7/31/07, and the Allow Posting From was 7/1/07 on General Ledger Setup, the following would occur:
6/28/07 – Ship and Invoice – $10
7/31/07 – Additional Cost for the sale made on 6/28/07 – $2

Determine why an ILE of Production Output received INVTADJMT
One or more Consumption entry of the same Production must have had its cost adjusted

How does NAV know which items to processed during Adjust Cost Item Entries (ACIE)?
When we a post purchase(?) transaction, a record is inserted to (or updated on) Avg. Cost Adjmt. Entry Point (ACAEP) table
At the end of ACIE process, ACAEP table will be emptied

For FIFO: In Item ledger entry table there is a field called "Applied Entry to Adjust". This is how adjust routine doesn't look at entries it has adjusted.
For Average: it populates the Avg. Cost Adjmt. Entry Point or Average Cost Adjustment table (based on which version you use) upon inventory movements and adjust those items mentioned there with Valuation Date later than the date shown there.
source: adjust cost - never adjust more than once

ACIE: Posting Date in Adjust Cost-Item Entries
If the adjustment entry is not within the allowable posting date range specified on the General Ledger Setup, then it's going to use the date you specify on the Adjust Cost Item Entries process [even if the date is allowed in User Setup table]

ACIE: Error "Posting date is not within your range"
If G/L Setup or User Setup is restricting date from X to Y, check Value Entries for Posting Date outside that range

What's the difference between Appl.-TO and Appl.-FROM ILE column?
Appl.-TO is related with purchase returns where you can select a positive open ILE.
Appl.-FROM is related with sales returns where you can select a negative ILE.

Is there any way to have Navision auto-fill Apply-from column?
sorry but there is no option to aufill that appl. from item entry
(source: Credit Memo error "Appl. from Item Entry...")

Exact Cost Reversal function becomes more humane in Microsoft Dynamics NAV 5.0

1.can access regular documents (rather than item ledger records) and copy one or multiple lines, be they from the same or different documents
2.among the documents to copy from, will find invoices (as well as credit memos, if that's relevant) - the most logical reference document in returns situation  (see screenshot below; click to expand)
3.will not have to manually enter serial/lot numbers for the returned items - the program automatically copies item tracking lines to the return document from the original document
4.can rely on the program to keep track of the already returned and cost reversed quantity on the sales documents - so you don't have to worry about cost reversing return of the same sold quantity more than once.



How to change Cost Amount of an inbound ILE?
Use Revaluation Journal:
..Calculate Inventory Value   (KALO INI, HANYA UTK REMAINING QTY)
OR,
..Fill Item No. (ignore Posting Date, it will be autofilled by next step)
..Fill Apply-to Entry
THEN,
..Change Unit Cost (Revalued) for ILE in question
..Post
Sample scenario that requires above procedure:
..User posted purchase order with right qty but wrong price, realized it then has post return and
..new correct order BUT
..stock from initial order has been consumed/sold

With Average costing method, will Unit Price of Sales Return affects Unit Cost?
No; See screenshot below (post Adjust-cost condition):


Simulate how NAV calculate Average Cost
www.navision-girl.com/2009/03/steps-to-calculate-average-cost-in.html
Note:
Quantity mentioned on the article might refer to "Invoiced Quantity"
It's probably better to sort on "Item Ledger Entry No." as well (after "Valuation Date")

Koreksi atas Purchase yang salah harga dan sudah dibuatkan Purchase Return
- jika pro sdh betul diisi apply-to nya, maka tinggal buat po baru yg benar
- jika pro lupa diisi apply-to nya, maka selain buat po baru yg benar, harus revaluate pr dari po yg pertama (agar cost tidak kacau)

Koreksi atas Retur Penjualan USD yang seharusnya dibuat dengan Apply-from
Buat SRO yang benar dulu (agar stok tersedia utk SO yg nantinya akan dibuat):
- Gunakan Copy Document: Posting Date sesuai SRO yg keliru
- pastikan exchange rate sesuai SO awal
- isi Apply-from
- Pastikan Warehouse Receipt diposting dg lot sesuai SO awal dan dg Posting Date sesuai SRO yg keliru
Buat SO utk batalkan SRO yg keliru:
- Pastikan isi Apply-to (*)
- pastikan exchange rate sesuai SRO
- isi Unit Cost (LCY) sama dengan Unit Cost pada SRO yg keliru (!!!)
- Pastikan Warehouse Shipment diposting dg lot dan Posting Date sesuai SRO
Validasi lunas kedua dokumen tsb
(*) Utk kondisi dimana pengisian Apply-to tidak bisa dilakukan (krn baris ILE sudah tidak Open) _DAN_ tidak ada perubahan avg cost sejak SO awal hingga SRO yg keliru, maka cukup lakukan Revaluation Journal atas ILE milik SRO yg keliru agar sesuai dengan avg cost dari transaksi di "sekitarnya"

Omzet minus tapi profit plus
Retur jual lebih besar dari jual, tapi secara rasio thd nilai transaksinya, retur memiliki hpp lebih besar drpd jual (Retur adalah untuk jual yg lain/terdahulu)
Contoh:
Omzet    HPP  Profit
  2000  -1000  1000    HPP=50% dari Omzet
-4000    3500  -500     HPP melebihi 50% dari Omzet
-------  ------  -----
-2000               500

NAV 4.0: Agar ACIE hanya proses item tertentu
CU 5895 MakeSingleLevelAdjmt:
...

WITH ItemLedgEntry DO BEGIN
  SETCURRENTKEY("Item No.");
  SETFILTER(ItemLedgEntry."Item No.",'ITEM_CODE_HERE');
  IF FIND('-') THEN
    REPEAT
...


      SETRANGE("Item No.",'ITEM_CODE_HERE');
    UNTIL (NEXT = 0) OR LevelExceeded;

Kenapa ada baris Sale yang Cost Amount nya tinggi sekali padahal secara kasat mata terlihat bahwa Purchase terkait memiliki Cost Amount rendah (Catatan: Belum jalankan ACIE)
Jalankan dulu ACIE
Sebelum jalankan ACIE, Cost yang didapat sebuah Sale berasal dari Cost saat Sales Order dibuat
(Bisa dilihat dengan membandingkan Unit Cost yang ada di Sales Shipment Line dengan Average Cost di tanggal-tanggal sekitar saat SO dibuat)

How to setup new company in a new database

As a start you need to restore database default,
you can find it in Navision installation cd, number 2.

Here are the steps that I usually do when creating new empty database :

1. Create New Database
2. Click Tools >> Restore
3. Find standard Nav 4.0 database backup, dialog box appear
4. Do not choose any company, check "data common to all compannies",
check "application objects"
5. Click Ok, restore all application object and common data, but no company
6. Create new company

or

1. Using the Navision client, open the standard database that was sourced
from the Product CD.
2. Create a new company and provide a name for the company. The new company
will then be created and initialized.
3. Switch to the standard company of the database.
4. Delete the standard company which will leave the newly created company
behind.
5. Open the new company and you will notice the same result.

Why need pivot/BA? Can't the same functionality provided through NAV Report?

First, designing NAV report to achieve the same functionality as pivot does is a daunting task

Second, NAV Report's performance in analysis reporting will never come close to pivot's
For testing, try to create Top N Customer List report (based on Sales Amount) inside NAV and pivot.

In ... IDM allows you to limit the speed for a individual downloads
Refreshing Download Links:
Using refresh download links, you can request the file again and IDM will catch the download and resume it from wherever it stopped.
While you can schedule downloads in FDM, it’s nowhere near as powerful and versatile as IDM.
If you are using FDM you will not need a separate torrent client, as the built-in client is more than capable
Another nice feature of FDM is a recycle bin for downloads

4. Under Temporary directory section you will see the path of temporary folder of idm where all parts get stored while downloading a file.
5. Copy the path.
6. Go to Start->Run and type the path and click OK. Or you can follow the path. The path should look like C:\Users\Your user name\AppData\Roaming\IDM\
7. Then open DwnlData->Yourusername folder.
You will see all your temporary folders of IDM download. Open the folder of the video file and play the video with VLC media player. I recommended VLC media player.

Barcode FAQ & Tutorial
Some scanner manufacturers’ ship new barcode scanners with most symbologies disabled, therefore, if a particular barcode cannot be read, make sure it is enabled in the scanner's firmware.
Some barcode scanners also read different symbologies better at different sizes. For example, the Symbol Laser Barcode Scanner dependably reads the Code 39 Barcode Font when printed as small as 6 points, but only reads the Code 128 Barcode Font when printed at 8 points.

Which Bar Code Scanner Interface is right for me? RS232, Keyboard, or USB

How to Identify a Barcode

Generating barcode: using font OR 3rd party program?
I always recommend interfacing with a third party bar code labeling program. The prices of these are reasonable, they offer layout design features, scaling features, compatibility with a wide variety of printers and they generally are reasonably priced.
While you can utilize fonts, you are very limited in the symbology and, depending upon how the bar code is being used and the types of controls you need, you cannot create a checksum in a font-style bar code.
In cases where the application is totally in-house (and you have more or less total control and quick access to resolve problems) or where the bar code is a convenience factor on a complex text document (as might be the case printing the invoice number on an invoice), then the use of a bar code font on a standard laser printer may be the reasonable choice. Even in these latter cases, you may want to have a QC process where you check the readability of the printed results with a sampling frequency to be determined (again) by the potential cost of an error.

Report with Multiple-detail-band scenario: Associating a variable with certain detail band

Selecting Detail n as the Reset based on value tells Visual FoxPro to only process this calculation when processing the detail records in the target alias of this Detail band. The report variable is not altered while records in other target aliases are being processed. This allows you to tie a report variable to one particular Detail band. The value of the report variable is not cleared until the Detail Header band of this same Detail set is processed for the next parent record.

VFX: Where temporary run-time report file is stored

\Documents and Settings\\Local Settings\Temp\.frx and .frt

Security / permission related

A newly added windows login can't log in with error "...permission to read the Object table"
Synchronization doesn't help
Add db_owner to Database role membership

Quickly filling newly created Role with all objects [of certain type]
Add one line for DataTable, ID=0, set all permissions to Yes [and save*]. Click All Objects button, remove all Yes from tables you want to not access to, click OK
[*]you can save it only if you do some change. Changing some permissions to Indirect or empty, move cursor to next line (the line is saved), go back and change the value back. This is shortest way how to create the line for TableData ID=0 with all permissions. It is tricky but it is "the way how it is done".
source: How to set multiple roles for a user?
UPDATE:
Because NAV 2016 does not have "All Objects" button, the best we can do is copy list of objects from Object Designer to Excel and import it using Configuration Package

User can open NAV up to open company but can't open any menu (some error like "don't have access to G/L Setup")
For database in question, make sure that db_owner on Database role membership is checked (SQL 2005)

How security filters on a table are applied:
Same field on one role [more than once]: not possible
Same field on multiple roles: OR-ed
Different fields on one role: AND-ed
Different fields on multiple roles: AND-ed


UNANSWERED question:
If "How security filters on a table are applied" above is correct, then why scenario below could happen:
Among roles assigned to a user, there are two like these:
1st role: Read/Insert/Modify/Delete "Sales Header".Creator = (USERNAME)|''
2nd role: Read/Insert/Modify/Delete "Sales Header".Salesperson = '1010-001'|''
According to explanation above, user should be able to insert (and then modify) Sales Header only when he/she is the Creator and using his/her Salesperson code, but what really happened was that the user was able to create a Sales Header for Customer XYZ (which has Salesperson code '2020-002' assigned to it and that code is automatically inserted to Sales Header)

Connecting front audio ports to mainboard headers

Basically there is an Audio Header on the K7S5A labeled "Audio2" this header is used to plug in front audio ports located on most newer cases. In the manual this header has 9 pins as #7 is the KEY pin. There needs to be 2 jumpers placed on this header if rear audio jacks are to work they are: -(as labeled in the manual)

#5 - AUD_FPOUT_R - Right Channel Audio signal to Front Panel
#6 - AUD_RET_R - Right Channel Audio signal to Return from Front Panel

to Clarify.. #5 and #6 pins to be closed with a Jumper

#9 - AUD_FPOUT_L - Left Channel Audio signal to Front Panel
#10 - AUD_RET_L - Left Channel Audio signal Return from Front Panel 20

to Clarify.. #9 and #10 pins to be closed with another Jumper

If you decide to use front audio in the future with the K7S5A you will need to remove these 2 jumpers to plug in the connectors for front audio ports and in turn will disable your rear audio ports again. both front and back ports can NOT be used at the same time for this mother board.

Retrieve video stream from mozilla/firefox cache

(Different trick) Open Broadcaster
see post "Enable mic at remote computer"
(Haven't try it)
---

Ever wanted to save streamed videos when using adobe flashplayer?
(Haven't try it)
---

Youtube (or another streaming video) can't be found on temp folder:

I've found there has always been some videos that download in sections but this has always been specific to those videos rather than a transient site bug.
I can usually tell which videos will end up complete and which split by the way the grey download bar moves from left to right ahead of the red playback bar.
If the grey bar moves left to right at a more or less steady speed the resulting file will be whole and playable offsite. If the grey bar moves in sections, pausing occasionally for a few seconds before continuing I know the resulting file will be split and unusable.
Maybe youtube want to stop downloading completely as watching offline/offsite means we don't view any site adverts
(source: Problems downloading videos from you tube, have they changed something)


Sites that provide downloadable video file/streaming:
http://laxx.dj/:
see temp dir and use hobocopy (pause video at last second to prevent it from replay and resetting temp file)

UPDATE Aug 11, 2011:
Look for file named fla*.tmp at your temp folder
You might need tool described here if the file cant'be copied:
How To Use HoboCopy To Copy Locked File In Windows 7?
usage: hobocopy source_path dest_path file_name
caution: path must NOT closed with backslash and should NOT be root folder

If the copied file seems can't be played, it's probably just a matter of finding an appropriate player software (examine file header if necessary)
FLV can be played with WMP

Older trick:
Let the video finished playing.

Type 'about:cache?device=disk' in your mozilla.

Locate the entry for the video in question:
Use Last-modified date, website address and size (video file usually has a big size) to find it.

Click the link on 'key' line.

'File on disk' will show the real file location.

Copy it to another location (Don't forget to add proper file extension).

Once you know where the cache folder is, it's much faster to directly open the folder anytime you need to find latest cached video file (as long as your OS isn't reinstalled)

If the intended video cannot be found in the cache folder, it's probably because the cache is full; try to empty it or set it to larger size ( Tools \ Options \ Advanced \ Network \ Cache )

Install SQL Server 2005 on Vista

http://msmvps.com/blogs/martinpoon/archive/2006/12/08/installation-of-sql-server-2005-in-windows-vista-warning-message-on-iis-feature-requirement-during-system-configuration-check.aspx

On Windows 7
------------
Make sure that you install it before Visual Studio, and also make sure you enable these Windows features first:

Common HTTP Features

Static Content
Default Document
HTTP Redirection
Directory Browsing

Application Development

ASP.Net
ISAPI Extension
ISAPI Filters

Security

Windows Authentication

IIS6

IIS 6 WMI
IIS Metabase

Then install SP2 at least, but preferably SP3

FAR LESS capable than ReFox...but it's free ;-)

It won't even decompile encrypted file(s)
Quote from Readme file:
Last question was why do we not decompile encrypted files? It has two reasons. The main reason is because I do not know how FoxPro ciphers its App (Refox knows). But I nearly never use encryption for my FoxPro Application. And last this program is not a contribution to piracy.

Protect Word document to prevent Copy

This [trick] is what's known as "a fool's errand".

You can click Tools > Protect Document, in the task pane click the
check box under "Editing restrictions", set the dropdown to "Filling
in forms", and click the Start Enforcing Protection button. If your
document doesn't contain any form fields, it will behave as you
described -- clicking anywhere in the document will send the cursor
back to the top of the document.

However, this "protection" is so easy to defeat that it's laughable.
Just open a new blank document and use the Insert > File command to
insert the protected document. Presto, no protection.

Even if you manage to come up with a better protection scheme, such as
using Microsoft's Information Rights Management (IRM), it's still true
that if someone can see your document they can reproduce it in
editable form. The best you can do is to make it more difficult for
them.

Prevent object from being selected

Let say you have an Excel worksheet which has an embedded signature image of which you don't want it to be selectable:
- Select whole worksheet > right-click > Format Cells > Locked=No
- Format the image you want to protect with Locked=Yes
- Tools > Protection > Protect Sheet
- uncheck "Select locked cells" and check "Select unlocked cells"
- assign password to unprotect

2003: Locked-out Administrator account is unlocked

A locked-out Administrator account is unlocked if the correct authentication credentials are sent to Windows 2000 Server
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/838156

My note:
The "Applies to" section says that this issue is on Windows 2000 but I experienced this on 2003 R2 as well

When Administrator account is locked out, nothing appears on Event Viewer.
But failed authentications do appear as Event ID 675 (Source=Security Type=Failure audit)

Send e-mail to undisclosed recipients

QUESTION:
Recipient A allow to see all other recipients but Recipient A himself must be hidden from all other recipients
Where to put Recipient A ?
ANSWER:
...
---

When composing new message, leave "To:" section blank and put all destination e-mails in "Bcc:" section

Blind carbon copy
To send a message to multiple parties with none of them knowing the other recipients. This can be accomplished by addressing a message to oneself and filling in the actual intended recipients in the BCC field

Bcc vs. Cc
Example of CC vs BCC
From: Frank Sinatra
To: Kurt Cobain
Cc: Bob Dylan; Jim Morrison
Bcc: Mark Knopfler; Paul McCartney

In the above example, all recipients of the email (including Mark Knopfler and Paul McCartney) will see the following email header information when they receive the email:

From: Frank Sinatra
To: Kurt Cobain
Cc: Bob Dylan; Jim Morrison
This means that none of the recipients will know who the Bcc recipients are. Each of the BCCed recipients will, of course, realize that they were on BCC but they will not know who else was on BCC.

and remember to reboot after.

This patch provides several fixes for DriverStudio 3.2 which include item for Softice and Visual Softice. Below is the link to zip file containing the patch. Download this file and unzip it to a temp directory, then follow the instruction on included readme file to install.

Toshiba laptop: Display suddenly goes blank while still in use

If using the Fn+F6/F7 keys do not brighten or dim your display and it's not a result of a power option (power / battery save) option, it may be hardware related. It sounds like either the 'backlight' in your internal LCD display or the laptop's FL inverter board is defective. When the backlight is not present, as in the two situations above, you can still faintly see the display although, it is very dim/dark.
The backlight is a very thin fluorescent tube at the base of the LCD panel. The backlight is built into the LCD panel. Fluorescent tubes are fragile and break easily. The FL inverter board is a small circuit board that ramps up the voltage going to the backlight and is controlled by the system board. In most cases like yours, the backlight is the failing component. The fix would require replacing the laptop's LCD panel which includes the backlight. If you have an extended warranty, I recommend contacting Toshiba. If the laptop is not under warranty, you could take it to a local ASP and have it diagnosed. Sadly, replacing the LCD panel out of warranty can be a bit pricey.

How to use PC3000 ISA (Summary)

Use "safe mode" jumper setting only when the drive "hangs during start" or does not start without the safe mode jumper.
Why? Because "safe mode" has drawback:
We won't be able to load defects table from the firmware zone.
(Manual book section 7.1)

Find a working LDR file (and its associated .RAM file?) from Internet and put it on the root folder of PC3000
(We can also use "Create an LDR file" if we have a functional drive)

Load an LDR file

Modules loader

Standard mode [?]

Work with firmware zone

Read modules

Read groups of modules

Test firmware zone recording
(Manual book section 7.1)

Check firmware structure
Make note if any of these modules is damaged:
DMCS, U_LIST, AT_POL (G-List), AT_PDL (P-List)
Damaged/corrupted modules can be identified by their strings displayed with:
NO_PLIST, NO_GLIST, NO_DMCS

Exit program

Examine created folder for bad modules (has extension of .bad)

Copy files of good modules to the same folder (?)

Start program

Perform "Write modules" (?)

Repair header modules:
Firmware data > Work with firmware zone > Restore modules
(Manual book section 7.2)

Find firmware for harddisk

Example:
DiamondMax Plus 8 40GB
Full model: 6E040L0711214
Family: N40P
Code: NAR61HA0 KMBA
Firmware: NAR61HA0
Head code: K,M,B,A
PCB code: B8FED

Googling: 6E040L0 KMBA

Siapakan HDD yg bermasalah. Test dengan power supply only untuk memastikan masalah bukan di PCB.

Setelah yakin bukan PCB yang bermasalah, pasang jumper safe mode pada HDD :

Maxtor N40P (6E0 series)
http://forum.hddguru.com/uploaded_images/6472_N40P_1.jpg

Pasang pada Port ATA-0 di PC 3000 Card (Jangan input Power On dulu)

Setelah terpasang, panggil shell.com dari PC 3000.

Muncul menu utama PC 3000, pilih merk HDD yg bersangkutan, pilih type yang sesuai (lihat sticky !)

Power On (F11), masuk menu utility, Load ldr file dng checksum yg sesuai (lihat sticky !)

Reread drive ID

Enter standard mode.

Firmware operation

Test firmware structure

Periksa apakah checksum sesuai.

Read modues

Read modules group

Defect tables, Read G-List

Defect Table Read P-List

Move G-List to P-List

Ok, setelah read modules dan module groups, di root PC3K nya akan muncul folder [MXDSPMOD] atau [MXPKRMOD]. Cek apakah ada module yg bad saat dibaca.

Exit utility PC 3K, lihat ke root directory dan buka folder yg dihasilkan. Cek seluruh module yg ada, periksa mana yang rusak.

Ok, setelah pengecekan akan terlihat adanya module yang rusak (*.bad). Pastikan kita memiliki module pengganti dengan checksum yang sama.

Juka tidak ada, jangan lanjutkan. Cari sampai dapat module pengganti dengan checksum yang sama.
Lakukan SA Write Test.
Jika ada checksum yg sama, overwrite module dengan yg baru.

Lakukan Module Recovery (ATPOL, ATPDL, DCMS, U List) untuk perbaikan header dan checksum

Exit. Power off (F12)

Set jumper ke standard mode.
Power On (F11)
Pilih utility lagi (Sesuai dengan merk dan model HDD)
Seharusnya jika module yang tepat telah masuk ke HDD, maka HDD akan dikenali sebagai model asli.

Catatan untuk PC 3000 ISA/DOS versi crack:
Anda hanya bisa menggunakannya untuk Maxtor single head drives. Untuk lebih dari single head, useless....tdk bisa pindah head untuk operasi firmware

End Sub

Sub CancelScript
OKClicked.Value = "Cancelled"
End Sub

name="ok_button" onClick="RunScript">
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
<input id=runbutton class="button" type="button" value="Cancel"

Accessing network resources using credentials with VBScript
www.winfrastructure.net/article.aspx?BlogEntry=Accessing-network-resources-using-credentials-with-VBScript

The downsides of this approach:
1) Only works with IE
2) Unless we set security level to Low (which is not recommended), we have to manually 'allow blocked content' each time we launch this script

A more elegant way is to install PassDlg.dll and use the included sample script (combined with part of the above script that establish connection to network shares)
Note for Windows 7 64bit:
Since PassDlg.dll is 32bit, we must associate (Open with, Always) the script with 32bit scripting host (
%SystemRoot%\SysWOW64\cscript.exe or %SystemRoot%\SysWOW64\wscript.exe)
If association fails (error "ActiveX component can't create object 'xxx.xxx'. Code: 800A01AD), create a .cmd file containing the following command:
%windir%\SysWOW64\wscript.exe "Network Resources.vbs"

File and folder management related

File expiration tasks are used to automatically move all files that match certain criteria to a specified expiration directory, where an administrator can then back those files up and delete them.
Can we automate deletion process as well ?
...
If the server is configured to track timestamps for when files were last accessed, this will result in the file management task only being applied to files that have not been accessed for more than the specified number of days.

Can I connect 2.5" laptop SATA HDD directly to desktop SATA connector?

Yes

For a faster data recovery I would suggest connecting your SATA hard drive directly to the SATA ports inside a PC computer. Fortunately, you can use same type of cables as you use for regular 3.5″ desktop hard drives.
(Source: How to recover data from failed laptop or notebook
www.datarecoverytutorial.com/recover-data-from-failed-laptop-notebook/
)

SATA connectors on a laptop hard drive are similar to SATA connectors on a destkop hard drive. You can connect a SATA laptop hard drive to a desktop computer using same SATA cables.

Bridged = your guest looks like just another PC on your network - visible to other machines.

NAT = your guest is hidden from other PCs on your network, but can get out to the network (and others can reach specific services on your guest via port mapping). This is just like a NAT router - whether hardware or software.

Host-Only = a private network between your host and guest. Your guest has no connection to the rest of the network, and no other PCs can reach your guest.
