About users/workspaces/schemas

Hi,
I'm sorry if this question sounds stupid, but i'm not very clear on it.
At my company, we've developed a client/server app, and we want to migrate it to the web.
Right now I got 5 different clients working with same database structure: tables, views, sequences,etc... but, of course, data is different.
I need to know if these scenarios are possible on Apex for my 5 different clients with their 5 different data collection, so i can choose an apex hosting plan.
a- Having 1 oracle user owning 5 differet workspaces. Each workspace will hold database structure of each client
b- Having 1 oracle user owning 1 workspaces with 5 different schemas. Each schema will hold database structure for each client
c- Having 5 oracle user owning 5 differet workspaces. Each workspace
will hold database structure of each client.
Please let me know which one is possible or the best (in your opinion).
Thnx in advance
Fernando

Without addressing your problem here is some information:
1. Workspaces are logical boundaries around developers, nothing more. Workspaces have no corresponding database structures. They are merely a name+number association.
2. Workspaces can have developer and administrator accounts. People who use those accounts are allowed to develop applications, do admin tasks, and use the database tools like the SQL Workshop. Application Express keeps developers and admins in each workspace "away from" developers and admins in other workspaces.
3. When you develop an application using your workspace developer account, the application is associated with the workspace in ways that isolate it from other applications associated with other workspaces in the same database. This is the basis of Application Express security.
4. Applications are allowed to contain SQL and PL/SQL code that is "parsed as" a particular database schema. This schema is one of the schemas that has been associated with the workspace. So you might have a workspace named W1 that has schema S1 associated with it and a workspace named W2 that has schema S2 associated with it. Applications developed in workspace W1 will parse as schema S1, and apps developed in workspace W2 will parse as schema S2. Both workspaces W1 and W2 could have schema S3 associated with them too. Then developers in either workspace could choose to build applications that parse as schema S3.
5. Workspace developers using tools like the SQL Workshop can see the schemas associated with their workspace.

Users / Workspaces / Schemas ?

Please can someone clarify the relationship between Users, workspaces and schemas . .
I have 3 schemas (say SchemaA, schemaB and SchemaC) in the database and created three workspaces to correspond to them (WkspA, WkspB and WkspC).
When it comes to users:
Manage Application Developers --> create
Fill in the details and associate userA to SchemaA and workspace wkspA.
If I also want to allow userA access to WkspB and wkspC how is this achieved?
Do I have to go back into Manage Application Developers and put in ALL the same info (username, email , first name etc) and associate them to the next schema (WkspB) and then repeat for WkspC.
Is this correct - Is there no way of creating a user once and then associating him with multiple workspaces?
Any advice appreciated.
Thanks
Jon

Jon,
1. Workspaces are completely isolated from one another in all respects. Nothing is shared between workspaces (except site-wide environment settings).
2. When you login to the service admin application (htmldb_admin) admin you can use that Manage Application Developers link to manage developer accounts in any workspace in the instance. However, you may find it more convenient to manage developers on an individual workspace basis by logging in as the administrator of each workspace and using the administration pages there.
3. As stated above, user accounts with a given name in one workspace have no relationship to user accounts with the same name in another workspace. User 'JON' in ws A is as separate and distinct from user 'JON' in ws B as User 'X' is from user 'Y' in those two workspaces.
4. The main reason to create distinct workspaces for different groups of developers is to keep them from seeing/altering/running each other's applications.

Export users from one workspace/schema to another

Hello,
I need to export APEX users from one workspace/schema to a different workspace/schema. I only know how to export a sql file that combines the workspace with the users.
In addition to that I would like to bundle that with an application package so that I will be able to deploy the entire application all at once. Is this possible?
In an ideal world, it would be create if someone could send me "step-by-step" directions on how to package and deploy an APEX application so that everything (i.e. all database objects, seed data, application definition, users, graphics, css, js - and tell me in what order each should be created) would be in one script.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks
LEH

LEH,
You asked a similar question here: How to Create a Packaged Application
It's best not to start multiple threads on the same topic.
It is 100% impossible for anyone on this forum to tell you how to create seed data scripts without seeing your schema and understanding what data needs to be seeded. Have you taken the time to read the APEX user's guide on packaging applications? I believe that it's a good place to start, as once you understand the fundamentals of packaged applications, many of your questions will likely be answered.
As for moving APEX users, you can navigate to any application, click Import/Export, select Export, then click on the Workspace Users tab.
Thanks,
 Scott

How to define user defined schema in LDAP

Hi guys,
I have created user defined fields in OIM through design console.
Could any one please help me in writing user defined schema in LDAP with the fileds created in OIM.
Thanks,
divya

Hi Divya
I'm a little confused about what you're asking. Does the custom schema already exist within your target LDAP server? Are you trying to work out how to pass custom attribute values through as part of an OIM provisioning operation? Which particular LDAP Server and Connector are you using?
Or are you perhaps asking how to actually create a user-defined schema extension within the LDAP directory? In this case, that will completely depend on which LDAP Server implementation you're using and you should probably refer to the product docs for that product.
Hope this helps
Cheers
Rob

CREATE/DROP synonyms in another user's schema without ANY privilege

What's the best way to enable a user to create/drop synonyms in another user's schema without doing any of the following?:
1) Granting CREATE/DROP ANY SYNONYM or CREATE/DROP PUBLIC SYNONYM to the synonym creator.
2) Logging in as the user that will own the synonym to create the synonym.
* Although option #2 might be ideal, it would require reworking a lot of code in our environment.
I thought about creating a stored procedure in the syn-owner's schema that issues the "CREATE SYNONYM" DDL command and then granting EXECUTE on this proc to the syn-creator -- but, it's my understanding that it's best to avoid putting DDL inside stored code.
Any ideas?
Oracle version is 10.2.0.4

DBA should recognize"should" is the operative word here :)
One clarification: the user from which the DBA's are planning to revoke the "ANY" privs is an account used internally by one of our ETL tools -- not a developer account. In fact, only the ETL tool itself and the DBA's can log into the account in TST/PRD (developers can log in with it in DEV). Even so, the DBA's still want to revoke "ANY" privs from ALL non-DBA accounts in ALL databases (including DEV). I kind of think that this is overkill, but then again, I don't make the rules here!
Anyhow, it seems that what we need here is the insight of a political scientist rather than that of a DBA. (not that your perspective is not valued!!)
Seems that I'll be going back to the drawing board...
Thanks for your help.

Storing users workspace information in XML

Hi,
I have to store users workspace information in XML file so that user can retreive it later. The information that needed to be stored can be any thing. This XML file will be stores in oracle back end.
Well i am not totally well aware of XML advantages and how well we can use it.
If any one who is is well aware of XML can provide me some information that will help in understanding it better like any related site, white papers etc.
For more clarification about the information that needed to be stores can be like,
1. Customization of Menu
2. Customization of ToolBar
3. Child windows opened
4. Which window is currently loaded
etc
Also i need a generic way to manuplating my code so that i wont have to make major changes during the process.
Thanks in advance.

you might be better asking this in the XML forum.
What will probably happen is that the XML structure is your template eg
Store1 xml
<menu> store1 menu</menu>
Store2 xml
<menu>store2 menu</menu>
From your xml dtd you can derive what is needed to create a Java model which you will have to populate with the values of the XML tags.
Then your gui will reflect any changes made in the model
If you do a search on sun for XML there is a tutorial which may be of use. Also depending how big your project is you may wish to look at JAXB

HTML editor in user workspace landing page

I followed the instructions in the Advanced User Guide to enable the use of landing pages in user workspaces. When adding a html element to the landing page in a user workspace, the editor is just a blank text box with no tool or menu bar and you cannot click OK, only Cancel, if you add anything to the box. The editor works fine in landing pages in team workspaces.
I recently upgraded to 3.4. This is the first time I enabled user workspace landing pages, so I don't know if the upgrade has anything to do with it.
Does anyone have any ideas what I did wrong or where to look?

Privilege to allow a user to create a view in another user's schema

Hello,
I need to allow a user to create a view in another user's schema.
Say, to connect as USER_A and run statement: 'create view USER_B_SCHEMA.myview as select...'
Is there any way to accomplish that without granting USER_A privilege to CREATE ANY VIEW? I want to keep USER_A at the lowest profile possible.
Thanks!

You have the option to create an stored procedure, here a test case (no optimized, no bug free):
SYS@orcl > create user sp_owner identified by sp_owner;
SYS@orcl > grant create any view to sp_owner;
SYS@orcl> create procedure sp_owner.create_view (
2 view_name varchar2, view_sql varchar2 ) is
3 begin
4 execute immediate 'create view '||view_name||' as '||view_sql;
5 end;
6 /
Procedure created.
SYS@orcl > create user test identified by test;
SYS@orcl > grant create session to test;
SYS@orcl > grant execute on sp_owner.create_view to test;
TEST@orcl> execute sp_owner.create_view('scott.emp_vw','select * from scott.emp')
PL/SQL procedure successfully completed.HTH

Questions about user-defined functions

Hello all,
I've got some questions about user-defined function in a message mapping:
1) How can I get the current date/time in format yyyy-mm-dd hh:mm:ss ? What is the java code for this?
2) I want to use the StreamTransformation constant TIME_SENT, only this is not in the right time-zone.
It is GMT and it should be CET (1 hour difference). How can I convert this in Java?
Can somebody help me with this?
Thanks in advance.
Kind regards,
Marco van Iersel

Hi Marco,
If the date format is fixed as you have mentioned,please use this:
                                String test = "2009-03-27 23:15:30";
          String test1 = test.substring(11,13);
          if(!test1.equals("23"))
          int a = Integer.parseInt(test1);
          int b = a+1;
          System.out.println("b"+b);
          String c = Integer.toString(b);
                                test = test.substring(0,10)+" " + c + test.substring(13,19);
                                return test;
          if(test1.equals("23"))
          test = test.substring(0,10)+ " 00" + test.substring(13,19);
          return test;
                                else return "";
Kindly let me know if this works.
Thanks.

Know about user activity

Hello,
We have the need of knowing the following data about users:
1.- How many time is the user conected every day.
2.- Which days do users connect.
We have tried with the audit, sm19, but the information we need is not there.
I know with STAT/STAD transaction we can seethese data, but it will be a lot of daily work and we cannot aim that time.
Do you know any other way to do it? Something like some tables to extract the data and make a report?
Thanks and best regards,
Alfonso.

Hi Alfonso,
You can query table USR02 which contains informations about user, last logon date (TRDAT) and last logon time (LTIME), but the duration is not stored.
Also, report RSUSR200 can record the users logon date and time.

A question about users assigned roles extraction

Dear all,
I have a question about users assigned roles list extraction. I need the list of the users who have already been created along with their assigned roles. According to what I found on Google, there is a table named AGR_USERS which provides the roles assigned to each user. Yet, this table provides only the SAP ID of each user along with the assigned roles. What I need more is to have also the first name and second name of each user.
So, do you know any table providing at least the following information:
1) First name of each user
2) Second name of each user
3) SAP ID of each user
4) All assigned roles to each user.
NOTE: I really need to have first name and second name in separate columns
Thanks in advance,
Dariyoosh

Thanks to you and others for your attention to my problem
I don't know anything about ABAP programming, is there any transaction allowing to create this join? As it seems to me the column "UNAME" in the table "AGR_USERS" and the column "BNAME" in the table "USER_ADDR", both refer to the SAP ID of the user. As a result the condition of the join would be "WHERE (UNAME = BNAME)", is there any transaction/programme allowing to create this join?
Thanks in advance,
Dariyoosh

Want to know about User exit in detail

Hi ALL,
I M NEW TO sap ABAP. I WANT TO KNOW ABOUT USER EXIT IN DETAIL. PLS DO THE NEEDFUL . If there are eny document regarding this pls mail to this id [email protected]
thanks and regards
Nandha

Hi Nanda,
Welcome to SDN,
Userxits allow us to add our own functionality to SAP standard program
without modifying it . These are implemented in the form of subroutines and hence are also known as FORM EXITs. The userexits are generally collected in includes and attached to the standard program by the SAP.
User exits are used when the flow for a particular transaction has to take some other route other then the normal flow. this can be the case when you have to attach some additional functionality lik u need a customised screen, or new functionality (using a functional module). based on these things user exits can be classified as screen exits, function module exits, field exits( not used anymore). hope this gives some help on userexits.
The naming standard of function modules for functionmodule exits is:
EXIT_<program name><3 digit suffix>
The call to a functionmodule exit is implemented as:
CALL CUSTOMER.-FUNCTION <3 digit suffix>
To find a Exit.
Goto Transaction -- Find The Package
SMOD >f4>Use the Package here to Find the Exits In the Package.
Else if you Want to search by Application Area wise ,
There is one more tab to find the Exits in the Respective Application Area.
Implementing the Exit-- CMOD Create ProjectsAssgn your Component .
Now Run ur Transaction to Check if it Triggers.
Thats it..
