Will any change in tempdb database affect the user defined tables?

Will any change in tempdb database affect the user defined tables?
Suppose I have deleted a table from system database tempdb, will it effect the user defined tables?
Anujit Karmakar Sr. Software Engineer

The short answer is no; deleting a table from tempdb will not affect user databases.
Of course I could make up some connection between the two that you haven't described. For example, if a stored procedure created a temporary table, and was busy using it when you deleted it, the deletion could cause unexpected behavior in the user database,
which could affect some table data.
Also, some system actions in user databases can store data in tempdb temporarily. But you aren't likely to be talking about system usages of tempdb.
So, unless you describe some connection, the tables in tempdb are independent from the user database tables.

Unable to change reference point location while using the Transform Functions in Photoshop Elements 6.0.

Which operating system are you using?
In photoshop elements 6, as far as i know, you can only change the Reference Point Location for transforms using the small grid in the left hand corner of the tool options bar with Transform enabled.

What to do incase of new change in Org Structure while using indirect assig

Hi all,
This is my first post in this forum and I hope I will get the right answer.
We have implemented the indirect role assignement and now we are in the process to set the process incase of any change in the Org Structure.
Option 1)
Me as a security engineer I have decied to have the following process:
HR has moved an employee from position to position > HR will inform the SAP Security Engineer about the new change > SAP Security Engineer lock the user and send the new list of roles for the employee to the mananger and process team lead for approval > mananger and process team lead can either approve the request or suggest new changes > then the SAP Security Engineer will do the changes i(if any) and then unlock the user.
Option 2)
One of the Process Team Leads is suggesting that we assign the roles to the positions once, get it approved and then whatever happen we don't care.
Please let me know what is the best way, and I am sure the first option is the best but a lot of manual work.
I hope to get good response on this and I hope if there is supported document from SAP.

In addition to Julius comments, I like to add the following base on our current security design.
We have something similar to option #2 in place. We have HR base security by positions. We made sure the business owners of the security roles are aware of the security role to position mappings. We have a matrix of security to position mappings that has been approved by the business owners. Exceptions are address in the form of a Help Desk ticket.
In this example all managers will get a set of roles. The clerks will also get a set of roles. Again these will be pre-approve role to position assignments.
Position: Manager
Assign Role: Z-GL-MANAGER & Z-AP-MANAGER
Position: Clerk
Assign Role: Z-GL-CLERK & Z-AP-DISPLAY
Option #1 - It's too much work and you are assuming that all the players involve on the business process will follow through, from notification of move, to approval, and more notification, etc.
As long as the business owners are aware and understand how position base security works option #2 is the way to go. Of course we have other procedure in place before handing out security credentials, from submitting an SAP access form to mandatory training, etc. We currently do not have the man power to have option #1 in place.
Good Luck!

Difference in sharing between 2003, 2008 and 20012

Hi,
We have a Dell 3115cn printer. This printer is able to scan a doc to a share, SMB Port 139. When I create a share on a Windows 2003 or Windows 2008 server, there is no problem scanning to this share. But on a 2012 server the printer is not able to write
the (pdf) file to the share (same user and share folder rights).
Things I tried:
- Turn off Firewall
- Enable Netbios
Is sharing in Windows server 2012 different from previous versions?
Any suggestion is appreciated

"It does on 2003 and 2008, so whats the diff"
Each device needs a device driver. If Dell does not have a 2012 device driver for your scanner, that means that you are using a 2008 device drivers. Device drivers are very often changed from one operating system release to the next due to changes
that were made either in the operating system itself or within the device driver model. Any time a device changes its behavior from one operating system release to the next, the very first thing I suspect is the device driver.
"It's not a print problem, writing to a share doesn't need a driver"
Any hardware device connected to the system needs a device driver. You state that the scanner is writing to a share. That absolutely requires a device driver. Again, because it is a newer operating system, I would check with Dell to
see if they have a 2012 device driver for your scanner. If they don't, ask them if they have done any testing with the device on 2012, or if they are aware of any issues on 2012.

Switching between multiple desktops while using VNC

Hi All,
Encountering a minor inconvenience with switching between desktops while VNC-ing. I frequently telecommute and VNC into my work imac, which has parallels + windows 7 installed. My personal machine is a retina macbook pro, and both my macbook and the imac have the newest mavericks installed. I will frequently have multiple desktops open on my imac, but I find that when I am VNC-ing into the imac and then open up parallels in a full window that I am then unable to switch back to my other OS X desktops unless I completely shutdown my windows VM. Normally hotkeys works for me to switch between desktops (and still works when switching from OS X window to OS X window), but it just doesn't do the trick here. I know could just configure my imac so that parallels doesn't open up in full screen mode, which would solve the issue, but I feel like there's gotta be a way to switch desktops while VNC-ing! All tips appreciated!
Thanks,
KP

Hi,
This is possible using access restrictions in Universe designer based on user login.
For eg. there is user A,B and C and three connections C1,C2 and C3.
In Manage access restrictions you have to create a three restrictions(R1,R2 and R3): one using C1,second C2 and third C3.
Apply these three restrictions to corresponding to the users. i.e. R1-->A,R2-->B and R3-->C.
So based on user login the instance will be used for same report.
In IDT , I think this can be done using Data Level Security, but the concept wil be same.
Thanks

How do i deny access to an External Hard Drive while using user switching

Hello,
I have a QuickSilver running Tiger (Leopard upgrade coming when RAM arrives) and have 4 users ( fast user switching enabled). I would like to deny all access to the external hard drives except for the my account on the box.
I have already have gone into the info Sharing & Permissions and only allowed myself to have access, others have "no access" however when I switch user (using fast user switching) they assume ownership of the drives and have access.
Just so you understand the overall direction I would like to go. I'm a photographer and my images are loaded on various external hard drives which is plugged in to the desktop. Family uses the desktop and do not want them to access my work on the external hard drive, however I do need to connect via my laptop to edit images via ethernet which I would obviously enter the admin username and password for the desktop when challenged.
Any ideas???
dsh
P.S. I also changed the permissions via unix to 700 but guess what it doesn't matter! It still assumed the other users ownership upon switch. Does anyone have a proven solution?

D. Fraser wrote:
When you Get Info on the Drives, who is the owner of the Drives? What exactly are the permissions? Do all of the other users use an admin account? You might have to chmod the root user of the drive to your admin account, change the user to no-access, and everyone to no-access.
how does one "chmod the root user of the drive to your admin account"?
can that be done with terminal inside an administrator account, or does root need to be enabled and logged into?

How to change price in Sales order using user exit ?

The scenario is - when the user creates a sales order, there has to be an RFC called to another system to get the price of the materials in that system. Then it has to overwrite that price in this S.O.
Which exit in S.O can be used for this and then what processing needs to be done after the RFC call to get price. Like how the price can be overwritten on this S.O ? (Lets say to get price we use some BAPI to the other system). Any help ?

Dear Theodorous,
1)Please check the Material has been extended to the second plant.
2) Assign the second Plant to Sales Org and Dist Channel
If you have any concern revert back the same

Embed flash(Xcelsius) into crystal report 2008 while using Visual Studio

I am having some deep trouble with Crystal Reports 2008 and Visual studio. I have created a dashboard using Xcelsius 2008, embedded it in a report (along with flashvars) using Crystal Reports 2008.Then, I have added the .rpt file in a windows project in Visual Studio 2005. But the embedded swf file does not show in report designer in visual studio. And when I run the application the flash content is not displayed. However, when I export the report from the crystal report viewer toolbar to pdf format, I can see the flash content in the generated pdf file. Can anyone pls tell me how did you import the report file into visual studio so that the flash content shows up in the crystal report viewer.
Thanks in advance.

Hello,
It's not clear what viewing mode you tested in?
So to expand on AG's first line, the problem is in .NET IDE it uses the old CRViewer.dll for previewing reports from the Preview tab in .NET development IDE. This version of the viewer is for simple viewing only as it is old technology and does not support Flash files.
Second the ActiveX viewer will not support Flash files, you must use the CrystalDecisions.windows.Forms viewer or HTML and you need to be on SP1, any version before SP1 did have issues.
Compile and run your app in Release mode to verify if you can see the report as in CR Designer.
Thank you

Runtime error in MIRO while using User/Screen exit

Hello,
I have implemented an exit in ABAP for MIRO which when transported to Quality server through runtime error.
I have used EXIT (SMOD) : LFDCB001 which contains FM -> EXIT_SAPLFDCB_001 and include -> ZXM08U31. In this exit I have written my code to disable Inv. Party field. This field exist in Details Tab in Miro Transaction.
Location of the field: MIRO -> Details (tab) -> Inv. Party (Field)
Code written in include ZXM08U31 is:
LOOP AT SCREEN.
IF screen-name = 'INVFO-LIFRE'.
    screen-input = 0.
    MODIFY SCREEN.
ENDIF.
ENDLOOP.
This exit is assigned to a project in CMOD and I tested the same in Development system. It is working perfectly.
Now I transported the TR (Includes program ZXM08U31 and Customer enhancement projects ZMIRO). Now when I run MIRO in quality server it triggers the my logic and then through runtime error.
Runtime error says:
Short text
    Dynpro does not exist
Error analysis
    The system attempted to use dynpro 0400 in program "SAPLXM08".
    This dynpro does not exist.
I agree that screen 400 does not exists in program for MIRO but it does not exists in development system as well. So if the runtime error is valid in QEC server then why not in DEV server. And when it can run successfully in DEV server why cant it run in QEC server.
Hope I have explained all the things in detail.
Please provide me the solution since user can bombard anytime for the MIRO dump everytime in QEC.
Regards,
Harjeet Grover

Hi Harjeet,
Reason of your Dump is that the enhancement "LFDCB001" which you used contains one Function module exit "EXIT_SAPLFDCB_001" and another one screen exit in calling screen "SAPLFDCB" number 0150.
So when you activate your project these above mentioned both components were activated.
So when you execute transaction SAP looks for called screen "SAPLXM08" No-0400 but as you havn't created and program go for DUMP.
Solution - Just Create called screen "SAPLXM08" No-0400 and activate.
Thanks,
Vijay

Error while using user defined function in reports

Hi,
When I use the below user defined function in oracle reports I got the wrong number of arguments error
select test_function(id,a_number,v_date-14,b_number) from dual;
If I remove -14 from the argument it works. But iIneed to subtract 14 days from the date.
Thanks for your help.

select test_function(id,a_number,v_date-14,b_number) from dual;
you have to give the command like this to_date(v_date,'dd-mon-yyyy')-14
because the v_Date you choose in the parameter form is not having the corrent date format
the format dd-mon-yyyy is the format in which v_date is passed by the user.

Any change between 2003 & 2008 while using User Placeholder (%username%)
