How to use the admin user account in reports and dashboards?

Hi Everyone,
I want to use the admin user account in report and dashboard connections. But the Hyperion is automatically using the current user's credentials to fetch data.

Can I use the same user accounts for both Lion & SL?

I have one Mac that I can upgrade to Lion but it is the one that the entire family uses every day (I only can use it (and administer it) on weekends), so I have to make sure that there are no problems and no issues so my plan is to:
Move all of the users accounts to a different drive.
Configure 10.6.8 (SL) to use the user accounts on the different drive.
Back up SL to a bootable drive.
Repartition the Mac for a SL & Lion partition.
Reconstitute SL on both partitions.
Upgrade one SL partition to Lion.
I should now have a partition for SL and Lion that both use the same users accounts so when I (and then my family) are comfortable with Lion, the switch will be transparent.
Any problems that I am unaware of (and how to remediate it)?
TIA.

There are a few discussions here on the topic that I was planning to employ:
Moving Home folder to different HDD From Mac OSX Snow Leopard via Terminal?
Moving some Users to different volume
How do you move a user account to a different drive?
Another way of doing it is to move the directory, and then alter the user's home directory using the NetInfo utility (Tiger) or Directory Utility (Leopard). In both, you can change the user's home directory from the command line in Terminal.app like so:
$ sudo dscl . -create /Users/user NFSHomeDirectory /Volumes/volname+/+user
In the SL System Preferences -> Accounts one can select a user's account, right click and choose Advance Options presents the screen below. This is how I intend to point each OS to the same user account on an external HDD.
Does that answer your question?
TIA.

Safari problem & how do I do admin user account fix

Using Safari 1.3.2, QT 6.5.2, OSX.3.9 on Mac G4. I have not chosen to upgrade to QT 7 or Tiger because of other apps on this machine.
Safari crashes when I try to empty cache. Problem started after upgrade to above and installing flip4mac. - not sure which caused the problem.
I've already thrown out the suggested things from Safari prefs, plist, cache files from prefs, etc. I also trashed all of the fllip4mac pieces. Didn't fix the problem.
The only solution has been to log in as a different user. So, I guess I have to fix or delete and re-do the problem user account, which is my main admin. user account. I see that the dialogue box says I can save the user folder items into a "deleted user" folder.
Before taking this step, I want to know what happens then? Do I just drag the items back into the new admin. account? I would like some info before I take this step - don't want any regrets. If I can and do drag stuff back, any chance it would bring the problem with it? Will I get all my setting back? How about a step x step on setting up as new admin.?

How to use the G/L Accounts, COA and related transactions from the SDK?

Hi all
Where can I find more documentation or examples on how to manipulate the G/L Accounts?
Does SAP makes journal entries automatically from an User Defined Table, Form or Field?
If I indicate an account to my table, how does the amounts entered in the amount column get reflected on the G/L Account? Do I have to run a query that enter the information into the G/L Account?
And if so, by running an update/insert query to the G/L accounts table does my add-on provokes losing SAP support over the clients data?

Hi Neftali,
I got simple answer.
Where can I find more documentation or examples on how to manipulate the G/L Accounts?
-> DTW is a great example. And you can find the APIs in SDK help file.
Does SAP makes journal entries automatically from an User Defined Table, Form or Field?
-> Nope. User Defined something can't make any automatic journal posting, I guess.
If I indicate an account to my table, how does the amounts entered in the amount column get reflected on the G/L Account? Do I have to run a query that enter the information into the G/L Account?
-> I can't understand this question. Can you explain more?
And if so, by running an update/insert query to the G/L accounts table does my add-on provokes losing SAP support over the clients data?
-> Yes. (Sure.)

How to replace corrupt Admin user account (OS 10.2.8)?

My OS 10.2.8 Admin user account has somehow become corrupted, and is causing problems opening my Photoshop CS2 properly.
I have set a new user account and the problems with Photoshop CS2 are gone.
So therefore, I would like to set up a new user "Admin" acccount WITHOUT LOSING any of my functioning software attached to the current account (as Photoshop CS2 is all that seems to be wrong with
the current user account).
I'm pretty sure that I would just go into System Preferences and set up a new account user (me), and then delete the old Admin account.
Would this affect any of my existing installed software, as I really don't want to have to go installing about 20 GB of software again!
Any suggestions would be welcome ...... Thanks.
-David

Open the Accounts pane of System Preferences and create a new administrator account; from here, log in with that account. If all your software works properly in this account, it is safe to delete the original one. If you are asked which account you want to reassign items to, pick your current account.

How to change the "short name (account name?)" and home directory name?

Hi,
I recently purchased a new iMac and migrated account info from my MacBook Pro. I happened to use random account name during migration without knowing it will not be easy to change the short name (account name?) and home directory name. As a result, I am now having extremely confusing short name and home directory name on my new iMac.
I did online search to find out how to change the two names, but I could only found somethig like "enabiling root user and....." I have no idea what it was talking about and I don't want to take risk altering such advance set up manually.
Please advice how I can change the short name and home directory name safely without much PC knowledge.
Thank you very much in advance.

There are a few ways of doing this. The easiest method is logging into the first account and copying everything to an external drive (or flash drive or whatever), which changes the permissions so that others can see the files.
Then, login with the new account and copy the files over. Once they are copied, the correct permissions will be applied again (so other people on your computer can't access them).
If you can't do this method for one reason or other, you can do some terminal commands to change the ownership of the files. Login to the new account. If it is an admin account, open terminal and type the following command:
sudo chown -R -v yourusername:admin /Users/originalaccountnamehere
That should change the ownership of the files from your old account to the new one. At that point, you can simply drag the files into place.

How to use the validation work in Both TAB and Mouse keys in Forms6i

Hi,
I have a validation script once it's validated it should execute the query.But using When-Validate-Item i can't use execute_query.I am able to use the validation in Key-Next-Item trigger but if the user moves the cursor using mouse then it's not working.
How to use the validation script working in Both Scenarios(Tab and Mouse keys).
Can anyone please give inputs to rectify the above issue?.

So you have multiple fields, but on at least one of them if it's valid you immediately want to execute the query?
You could create a hidden field in a control block Query_Now default 'N'. In a WHEN-VALIDATE-ITEM on your item, if it's determined to be valid, then set Query_Now to 'Y'.
In a WHEN-NEW-ITEM-INSTANCE at block level, check if Query_Now is 'Y'. If it is then execute the query (and set it back to 'N').

How to use the region parameter of main report for subreport chart titles?

I am using Crystal Reports 11.
I create 1 main report with 10 sub-reports that contain cross-tabs & charts. The main report has a parameter regarding 3 different areas: region1, region2, and region3.
I use the method of adding the u2018regionu2019 parameter of main report to the selection formula of the sub-reports. So, I can select 'region' from main report to controll outputs in sub-reports by region.
I use formulas for chart titles, e.g.:
Select {Product Code}
Case 'a111':
u2018Region1 u2013 a111 Counts'
Case u2018b222u2019:
u2018Region1 u2013 b222 Counts'
u2026
u2026
Default:
u2026
Since I pass the u2018regionu2019 parameter of main report to sub-reports, I have to change chart titles dynamically based on the region I select.
How can I use the region parameter from main report in the formulas to get chart titles dynamically?
Thank you in advance.

Thank you.
I am not using Chart Title with "Chart Expert".
I am using a formula for chart titles, e.g.:
Select {Product Code}
Case 'a111':
u2018Region1 u2013 a111 Counts'
Case u2018b222u2019:
u2018Region1 u2013 b222 Counts'
u2026
u2026
Default:
u2026
I drag this formula above the charts and it looks like a dynamic title. So, for product a111, the chart title would be "Region1 u2013 a111 Counts"; for product b222, the chart title would be "Region1 u2013 b222" Counts; and so on ...
Because I pass the region parameter from master report to subreport, I want to change the region part of the chart titles dynamically.
For example,
when select Region1, the chart titles should be: "Region1 u2013 a111 Counts"; "Region1 u2013 b222"; ...
when select Region2, the chart titles should be: "Region2 u2013 a111 Counts"; "Region2 u2013 b222"; ...
I want to add the region parameter into the tiltle formula.
How should I do?

How to use the (gigabit) ethernet for data exchange and WLAN for Internet?

I have following setup:
- MB Pro SL 10.6
- Desktop PC Windows 7
- Wireless Printer
- Netgear WLAN Router
At the moment all my data and internet communication is done via the WLAN router on 192.168.1.x That works fine and I can exchange data, print and surf the internet. My problem is that big data exchanges > 10GB take ages via my 54Mbit WLAN Connection. Furthermore the WLAN router is far away from the PC so that it is not possible to plug in the Ethernet Cable of the PC and the MB to the router.
Now I've thought that there must be a possibility to use a 1 gigabit (cross) cable (like in the 90s ;)) to connect the MB and the PC directly. I know that I will need different IP ranges and so on, but I have no clue how to do that.
The final solution should be that the setup stays as it is (data exchange, print, internet via WLAN) and that additional it is possible to connect PC and MAC some times for big transfers via a Gigabit ethernet cable. because I only want to connect those two machines I don't think that a switch makes any sense, or?
Does someone know how to do that?
Thanks a lot in advance!

Well if it were 2 Macs, I would configure each Mac with a fixed IP address (same subnet as my router, but outside of the routers DHCP assignment range).
I would give the same fixed IP address to both my Airport AND my ethernet interfaces. I would do the same to the other Mac using another fixed IP address.
My network service order would have the ethernet higher than the Airport on both systems.
Normally I would use WiFi, so ethernet would be idle and out of the loop.
When I wanted faster transfers, I would connect each Mac to the router via their own ethernet cables, and the Mac would automatically detect that the ethernet became available, and would switch to use the faster ethernet. Since Airport and ethernet have the same fixed IP address, I could even do this in the middle of a file transfer and no one would notice as packets were always going to/from the same IP addresses, just using a different route, which doesn't matter.
NOTE: I've been doing this on Macs since Mac OS X 10.3 days (or was it 10.2; to long ago to remember).
However, you have thrown a Windows system into the mix, and since I do not use Windows, I do not have a clue about what can be done on Windows. However, maybe this will give you some ideas, and asking the right questions in a Windows oriented forum may provide the Windows side of this setup.
Sorry, that is the best I can do. Maybe my reply will encourage someone else to offer their approach.

The best practice for creating reports and dashboard

Hello guys
I am trying to put together a list of best practice on how to create reports and dashboards using OBIEE presentation service. I know a lot of those dos and donts are just corporate words that don't apply consistantly in real world environment, but still I'd like to know if Oracle has any officially defined best practice or not.
the only best practice I can think of when it comes to building reports and dashboards is:
Each subject area should contain only one star schema that holds data for a specific business information
Is there anything else?
Please advice
Thanks

Read this book to understand what a Dashboard is, what it should do and look like to be used by the end users. Very enlightentning.

How to use the SYSTEM user in hana cloud

Hello guys, I started with HANA cloud trial, but I havent been able to activate any projects due to an error with permissions,
Repository operation failed
Repository request failed. Cause: Repository: User is not authorized to execute specified operation;User 'DEV_7UKVVFEAC54C2E59OZZQSHXEN' has no authorization, privilege: 'REPO.EDIT_IMPORTED_OBJECTS', package: 'hello'!, code: 40,156, argument:
Now I believe the problem is obvious is that I dont have enough privileges, I went to the Users view and tried to add permissions to my user but I found out other error:
SAP DBTech JDBC: [7]: feature not supported: grantor and grantee are identical
Now I saw in several threads that if we want to add more privileges we should add them using SYSTEM user, but I just dont know how to log in with the SYSTEM user or how to switch to that user.
Any ideas or steps on how to do it?
Greetings!

I just tried performing the exact same steps as described in the tutorial and I can confirm that I get the same error. I get the same error from the Web IDE when trying to activate folders created via the sharing wizard of the Studio.
The problem would seem to be with the Studio version that is currently available from the HANA Tools update site. When packages are created from the project explorer (either directly or through project sharing), they are marked incorrectly as foreign projects (the little blue arrow on the icon).
However if you create the packages via the Content folder of the Systems view (as I did above for the hello package) or via the Web IDE; they are created correctly. I was able to setup a project in the Studio by pre-creating the package in such a way and then creating/sharing the project into the existing package. I still got an error on the .settings sub-folder, but I could ignore it and still activate the other objects.
Therefore I would suggest this approach or using the Web IDE.

Why is a new user account created every time I upload files from my old PC. Can't you just use the same user account all the time?

I'm a new Mac user and am finding my way slowly around it. One question: why is a new user account created every time I upload files from my old PC?

Because you're using the Migration Assistant, and it can't migrate data to an existing user account. Transfer everything at once or use a different method.

How to: using the Place command in an action and remember the correct source filename...

I have a large set of product, architecture, and other subject-specific photos, that I’m preparing for a new website; all to be placed in various galleries.
For each photo, I want it to have the same background. If I were doing this manually, I would simply “place” the subject photo into the background, and save it – back to the original photo name.
In other words, doing this manually, PRODUCT_001.TIF gets placed into STANDARD_BKGRND.TIF, (thereby automatically correctly sizing and centering it), and then saving the result back to PRODUCT_001.TIF; either overwriting the original, or into a new folder. (I have the original file somewhere else, and am working with an intermediate copy).
But since I have several hundred photos, how do I create an action (and really – a droplet) that will save the resulting file to the desired name? Typically placing photo ‘PRODUCT_001’ into photo ‘B’, alters photo ‘STANDARD_BKGRND’, so I can’t save the result back to ‘PRODUCT_001’. Said differently, in a droplet, each time it's run saves the result back to the same filename 'STANDARD_BKGRND'.
The end result – I want to apply that droplet to all the PRODUCT_***.TIF files in a given folder, and end up with the same file names as before.
Thanks in advance for your help!
Jerry
PS - I have no scripting experience in PS, but have written code in other applications/scenarios.

Its great that your products are cutouts layers, Its easy to put cutouts on backgrounds and even add layer style to the product layer to enhance the composite. Still cutouts have size and resolution as do your background images.
When you make composites. A document that is place in or pasted into the current document will be resample to match the current documents DPI resolution to preserve the size of the document being place or pasted in size.
Additionally if your using place if the document being placed in does not fit within the current document's canvas size. Photoshop may scale the image to fit within the canvas. It depends on your user id Photoshop Preference setting.
That means you need you handle the sizes involved.
I would think that you would want the final composite to be the size of the background image.
You need to know its size and dpi resolution. You must use image size on your product image and make the image have the same dpi resolution and a size smaller then the background image. Perhas they have the same dip resolution as the background and are smaller in size. If that the cast their size are good no image resize is required,
Then you need to use canvas size to make the document have the same size and resolution as the background image.
You may want to center the product layer over the canvas however Canvas size will add canvas evenly around the produt layer's layer bounds when you leave the anchor point in the center.
When you then place in the background image it will not be resampled for it has the same dpi resolution as the current document and it will not be scaled for it is an exact canvas size fit. All that remains to be done is move the current placed layer below the product layer
The document name is the product image file name opened by you or by Photoshop automate batch process.
