Approach for managing Store IDs

Hi,
What is a good approach for managing the IDs used for accessing the different application stores (Windows Phone Store, Itunes store, Google Play Store ...) when rolling out a mobile device solution such as Windows Intune?
Is it something that a user is responsible for? I think it is quite difficult for a company to manage all those IDs. For example, a user has an Iphone and an Apple ID, the company decides to give every employee a Windows Phone that will be managed by Windows
Intune. Not every employee will already have a Microsoft account and the Microsoft account will have to be created. Should the corparate email be used as Microsoft account? Or should we leave the option to the user? Can these accounts be created in bulk if
the corporate email address is used?
Another thing, applications from the stores can be deployed to the users. It don't see any issue when these applications are free, but how to manage applications that need to be purchased from the store?
Cédric.

Hi
The user has to manage this themselves. All the various APP Stores are end-user based by nature and no central administration/user provisioning exists as such.
The various IDs used for accessing the App Store are personel and when users purchase applications they are owned by that users (ID). You cannot move APPs between users/IDs.
So you really have to decide whether you want to allow access to the various stores from Company owned devices or not. It you decide you do, you could create guides explaining how to create users ID etc. and have some processes in place to deal with administration
and issues.

  • What is the best approach for patch management

    Hi,
    I'm new about patch management. I would like to ask you how manage patch on few Solaris 10 servers using command line.
    I would like to know:
    1. Using only command line how to download latest patches
    2. There are some dependencies how to check this and install only those patches which meets dependecy requirements?
    3. Is there possiblity to atomate this?
    4. Is it possible to have one patch server and others servers will download and install this patches?
    5. What if some patches are not installed?
    6. How to find out which patches are necessary and which patches don't have to be installed? Or maybe or patches to be installed?
    7. Could you please describe your approach for managing patches? Or maybe you can recommend some books/web page/articles that can help me to understand patch management.
    Thanks in advance,
    Daniel

    smpatch is the command line tool to manage solaris patching. first you need to register yours system - this can be done using sconadm, detailed here:
    http://sunsolve.sun.com/search/document.do?assetkey=1-9-82688-1
    smpatch analyze will list all required patches and resolve dependencies. smpatch download will download all the required patches, and smpatch update will apply them. You can set up a Local Patch Server to download patches, then your clients will download the patches they require from it. This is detailed in chapter 6 of the update connection admin guide

  • Peer-to-Peer approach for Cross Organisation BPM

    What are the pros and cons of using Peer-to-Peer based decentralise approach for managing Inter-Organisational BPM?
    ( Peer-to-Peer CBPM: In ideal condition in this approach every Partner should have the same technology which is developed for handling collaborative Business Processes.  In this case the same modelling, monitoring, and implementation technology is available across the value chain. )
    What are the challenges and what are the benefits from the aspects like autonomy, governance, security, modelling, monitoring, and process ownership?

    PROS:
    Using the Webservices you can trigger the BPM Process and pass the values from the web dypro component which will available for the end user and pass it on to the BPM Proess.
    We can use EJB as a webservice, where the automated activity in the BPM can output the value based on the logic in the EJB Function. We can manage the automated activity which runs in the back ground of the process as per our logic and returns the value to the next task.
    CONS
    Using Webservices in the various activity with fewer data is not advisable as it takes longer time to deploy the process. And any change in the data in the webservices requires regularly re importing of the web services.

  • Best approach for IDs mapping..

    Hello,
    I'd like to ask you for your experiences about classical integration problem: mapping of IDs (materials, partners...)
    What is the best approach for integration between SAP and other systems? Can you give me some hints?
    Thanx, Peter

    Hi Peter,
    you have 4 ways to do it:
    1. you can do it inside an integration process:
    RFC call for checking a table with ID -> ID mappings
    (not so good as you have to use integration process)
    but very easy to biuld as this is standard 
    2. table in R/3 and changing the values in a user exit
    (you maintaint the data in a table in R/3)
    the fastest way (no calls to other programs)
    but you have to create user exits and
    this is not why you (your client) bought the XI  
    3. you can use this new RFC API
    https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/servlet/prt/portal/prtroot/com.sap.km.cm.docs/library/uuid/801376c6-0501-0010-af8c-cb69aa29941c
    which seems to be the best approach
    as you don't need BPM for this and it's a standard
    4. value mapping tables in XI...

  • How should IT Departments approach the App Store?

    This question is in the capacity as an IT Administrator for a small/mid size company.  We have 4 Macs, 8 iPads, and 3 iPhones.  I have 1 Mac and 1 iPad at work that I use.  2 years ago we considered the options with how to support Apple ID accounts, iTunes, App Store, and the payment method(s) which need to be on-file. 
    Given our experience with accidental app and in-app purchases (according to the employees), the accounting department and the president decided after a conference call with Apple Support using Apple Care that rather than use corporate credit cards on file with corporate apple IDs, we would switch to a model that de-coupled the purchasing approval with installation approval.  The old method required us to review the monthly corporate card accounts, then chase down the people to make sure proper purchasing approval had been sought prior to app or in-app purchase.  There was no incentive for the employees seek prior approval even though one would expect professional adults to do so.  Currently the company notes that it would take on average 8 weeks for an employee to reimburse the company for a recreational purchase. 
    The replacement system currently in use now is for all Apple IDs to be personal accounts with personal credit cards.  Then employees are responsible for submitting an expense report and risk having the expense report request denied.  The thinking was that this would curtail the accidental app or in-app purchases as the employee would risk not being reimbursed for an unapproved purchase.  This system worked and accidental reimbursed purchases went down to zero for employees for whom this was a problem with corporate credit cards. 
    This is the model we use for iPads and iPhones.  Up until now, all Mac software purchases were shink-wrap purchased online from Apple or via an Apple VAR.  The push for the Mac to use the App Store changes this.
    MY QUESTION IS: if I buy the Mac OS X 10.7 Lion or 10.8 Mountain Lion with my personal Apple ID, can I install it on the other company Macs?  Will those users need to know my Apple ID password?  Or does the OS install without needing the Apple ID password?  What if a user needs me to install his or her OS on a company issued Mac, where he or she bought the OS under his or her Apple ID, can I install that OS without knowing his or her credentials?  Also can I install my copy of the OS on that company Mac and would future OS updates run without having to give that end user my own Apple ID Password?  Can I install the OS using my Apple ID then hand it off to him or her and let he or she run updates with his or her Apple ID?  Does it work that way?  We would rather not share passwords as each of our accounts has a personal credit card on file. 
    We would consider corporate Apple ID accounts if the following requirements can be implemented.  All app or in-app purchases should fire off an event which goes first to the employee’s direct manager then next to the company’s controller for approval.  If approved, then the app store or iTunes store should allow the end user to install the purchased item.  All company purchases should be kept under NET30 terms, then invoiced at the end of the month and paid all at once.  These are the requirements from our accounting department.  This is how all of our other vendors (IBM, Microsoft, Oracle, etc.) are paid. 
    The App Store seems to exist in some new virtual reality which our accounting department and legal/policy.compliance departments cannot comprehend.  I know IT Departments often get blamed for this, however, in our case that would just be shooting-the-messenger.   I am just trying to understand how all of this should work.  It would seem to me that this new consumer-cloud-model exists the way we have Apple IDs currently set up. The end-user interfaces with the App Store, then works directly with accounting to pay for the services.  It doesn't seem like IT needs to be involved anymore.  This is currently how we are attempting to approach this consumer cloud App Store model.  The upside is it let's IT focus on projects which directly require our unique expertise rather than play App-Store-middlemen with no value-add. 
    You thoughts?

    See also "Apple Support Communities > Mac App Store > Using Mac App Store > Discussions > purchase order" https://discussions.apple.com/message/15455935#15455935
    However, that cited solution won't work for us as the same Apple ID password would all for both purchases and installations.  We need to de-couple those 2 roles according to guidelines from our corporate office.  The decision making (purchasing) and adminstrative/administraton/installation roles need to be separate and discrete.  It is also similar to an enterprise model when developers write code in DEV environment,move it to a QA environment for testing, then a separate IT administrator (or Install Team) needs to copy the new code into the PROD environment. 

  • Best approach for publishing a paid version and an ad supported free version of the same app

    Hi,
    One of my Windows 8 store app is almost ready for store submission.
    What is the best approach for publishing a paid version and  an ad supported  free version of the same app.
    Can I do the following
    1. Submit the app with unlimited free trial to store
    2. During the free trial ads will be displayed
    3. If the user purchases the app, then the ad would not displayed
    Any advise is greatly
    appreciated.
    Best Regards

    Although the in-App purchase option is good but for ad based apps my approach is different.
    I would suggest putting 2 different apps in the store, one free with Ads and one without. Reason being you want the extra reference and xaml ad controls depending upon how
    many you have on the paid version of the apps. I would keep my apps as lighter and cleaner as possible specially when its a paid app.
    I currently manage both free and paid app through one solution and reuse most of the code except for the views.

  • Rational approach for Analysis Authorization:

    This post is regarding the implementation of Analysis Authorization.  Considering the role based approach; please let me know the optimized way to implement the analysis authorization such that there will be very low maintenance.
    For e.g. I have queries which need to be restricted at data level PLANT wise. So I mark the characteristic 0PLANT as authorization relevant. There are 150 plants so I create the 150 Analysis Authorizations and put each one of them in roles (1:1) resulting in 150 roles. In addition; 151th Role and Analysis Authorization for ALL plant access.
    Now to restrict the queries themselves, I create a Role with object S_RS_COMP , S_RS_COMP1 (For queries) ; S_USER_AGR  and S_USER_TCD( for  workbooks).
    Then I create a composite role  with above 2 single roles (one containing AA and other role for Query restriction)and assign it to user.
    Now suppose when I need to restrict data at some other level say DIVISION wise. Then I would be again creating analysis authorization for all the divisions and putting them in roles.
    Using this approach ; there would be many roles and analysis authorizations. Also during production support it may be cumbersome to debug the errors.
    Please comment if any other approach for implementing the above scenarios.
    Regards,
    Ajit
    Edited by: Ajit Nadkarni on Apr 4, 2010 5:47 PM

    Hi,
    I had a similar requirement where in we had 178 plants and each plant manager has to see their own site by default in the selection screen when they run the query.
    By defalut it should display there own site but its not restricted to only that site. Managers can also look into other sites but by default they wanted their own site to be displayed.
    So I have created DSO and did mapping with username and store. And in query I created a variable in plant of type customerexit and written exit in CMOd using I_STEP 1. This solved our requirement. But to restrict to particular site i guess we can extend the routine in cmod.
    Thanks

  • Multiple libraries, Pbook/Pmac, advice for management & updating please.

    Hi Everyone,
    I travel frequently, and am looking for suggestions to keep all my iPhoto libraries up to date. I currently have a g5, Powerbook, and Mini.
    I just upgraded to iPhoto 6 and I have several thousand photos on my Dual g5. I just came back with 1000 more from my diving trip. The problem is, they are on my Powerbook, and taking up alot of space on the relatively small hard drive. I managed to work through the rough upgrade from 5 to 6, and now I need some more help...
    1) What is your advice for managing multiple libraries of photos.
    2) What is the best way to transfer the iphoto pics (and movies) to my desktop, which of course has the larger storage capacity, after travelling...
    Thanks,

    Jason:
    There are several different approaches to what you want to do. Let me just throw out a couple that I'm familiar with.
    To get the new photos from your PB to your G5 and maintain any keywords, and other organization effort you put into them, you'll need the paid version of iPhoto Library Manager. It will allow you to merge libraries or copy between libraries and maintain the metadata, etc. That's the only way currently available to move photos from one library to another and keep the roll, keywords, comments, etc. with those photos. You can connect the two Macs with one in the Target Mode, probably your PB, and then run iPLM to move the photos to the G5 library.
    Now there is a way to have a library on your PB that reflects the one on your G5 but is only a fraction of the size. That's to have an alias based library on your PB that uses the Originals folder as its source of source files. (My 25,600 files, 27G, are represented by an iPhoto Library folder of only 1.75G). When the PB is not connected with the G5, say with a LAN, it will have limited capabilities which are in part: you'll only be able to view the thumbnail files, be able to add comments, create, delete or move albums around, add keywords (but with some hassle-but it can be done). You can't do anything that requires moving thumbnails around, work with books, slideshows or calendars. Once the two computers are networked together again the library will act as normal.
    Now while on the road you can have a "normal" library to import new full sized files, keyword them, add comments, etc. and then transfer to the G5 library. Once in the G5 library they will be represented in a roll(s) and corresponding folder in the Originals folder. You then fire up the "alias" library, and import those new folders in the G5 Originals folder.
    It may be a lot of work but it may be one way of doing it.
    I've not done any of the "sharing" with iPhoto so don't know if that's another possible candidate for transferring.
    P.S. FWIW I've created this workflow for converting from a conventional library to an alias based one.

  • Is Rh the Best App for Managing 41 manuals, with many pages being the same?

    I'd like to automate a labor intensive task that I will soon be assuming. We have 41 install manuals for an automotive accessory that fits 41 different models of vehicles. The current manual is 28 pages with at least 24 pages being identical. The documents are done in Word, along many pictures and drawings. When the document is finished, it is converted to a PDF and sent with the item. The pdf is also made available online for folks who may need the electronic version. When we change one page that is common to all, we have to manually update each Word file and then convert it. As you can imagine, the manuals don't get updated and corrected as often as they should
    Since most of the pages are the same, I would like software that can manage changes to these pages and automatically update all manuals. For example, if a change is necessary on page 6 and 34 manuals use this page, I simply change one page and the software "exports" this new page to all affected manuals.
    1) Would Rh do this?
    2) Would it be the best choice for this task?
    3) If Rh is the best choice for this, what is the best approach for beginning this task? Get a book and read or just jump in?
    4) I came across a book written by a firm called GooberGuides, is this a good resource? Do you recommend a better one?
    5) Does my project require a special technique when setting it up in an app like Rh or is the process fairly intuitive? I don't want to waste time by implementing this incorrectly, only to start over again when I realize there was a better way.
    I would be very grateful for any guidance you could provide.
    Thank you.
    Rodger

    I don't think your questions were answered, except for the tool one, which is not the most important one. I would reverse your questions:
    Does my project require a special technique? Yes! Single sourcing, which is a methodology for developing modular, reusable information, not a tool. Before you even approach a tool, you must analyze your content, define standards for it, define information types (Google for DITA), and convert it from linear (as your Word documents are) to modular.
    I have not seen the GooberGuides book, but I can definitely offer these:
    Content Managment for Dynamic Web Delivery - Jo Ann Hackos
    DITA 101 - Anne Rockley, Charles Cooper, and Steve Manning
    Introduction to DITA: A User Guide to the Darwin Information Typing Architecture - Jennifer Linton & Kylene Bruski
    Managing Enterprise Content: A Unified Content Strategy - Anne Rockley
    Single Sourcing: Building Modular Documentation- Kurt Ament
    Tools - obviously since we're on the Adobe forum, Technical Communication Suite must be acknowledged. But you can accomplish single sourcing with several tools. Check out a brief overview of some at http://www.writersua.com/restools.htm.

  • What's the best approach for handeling about 1300 connections in Oracle.

    What's the best approach for handling about 1300 connections in Oracle 9i/10g through a Java application?
    1.Using separate schema s for various type users(We can store only relevant data with a particular schema.     Then No. of records per table can be reduced by replicating tables but we have to maintain all data with a another schema     Then we need update two schema s for a given session.Because we maintain separate scheama for a one user and another schema for all data and then there may be Updating problems)
    OR
    2. Using single schema for all users.
    Note: All users may access the same tables and there may be lot of records than previous case.
    What is the Best case.
    Please give Your valuable ideas

    It is a true but i want a solution from you all.I want you to tell me how to fix my friends car.

    Which is better approach to manage sharepoint online - PowerShell Script with CSOM or Console Application with CSOM?
    change in sharepoint scripts not require compilation but anything else?

    Yes, PowerShell is great, since you can quick change your code without compilation.
    SP admin can write ps scripts without specific tools like Visual Studio.
    With powershell you can use cmdlets,
    which could remove a lot of code, for example restarting a service.

  • Managed Attachments - creating a customCO for 'Managed Attachments' and opening a new browser/window  as ActionEvent through processFormRequest()

    Hi All,
    I am working on 'Managed Attachments' integration of Oracle E-Business Suite with Oracle WebCenter Content and I am very new to EBS.
    As per the customer requirement, we needed to enable the Managed Attachments on an SIT page (Employee Self Service --> Special Information-> and click on 'Add' for any of the 'Special Information' section) and the values they fill on these pages need to be passed to webcenter content.  As you know these segment data will not be inserted into the database until the user clicks on 'Submit' button from the review page,
    But the customer wants to save it on the 'Special Information' add page itself.
    Managed Attachments is an out of the box feature offered by Oracle WebCenter Content to replace FND Attachments functionality. Instead of storing the attachments in EBS, it will store to WebCenter Content.
    My requirements are as follows
    1) Enable the managed attachments on he special information 'add' page (e.g Company Property, Disabilities etc),- I am able to do this
    2) The data user fills in these fields , when user clicks on 'Managed Attachments' button , these values should be passed to the URL for managed attachments(which is already set on the button through processRequest() method when the page gets loaded) and thus pass to webcenter content
    With these requirements, the challenges i am facing are
    1) Since the user clicks on 'Managed Attachments' before even he/she clicks on 'Apply' button, how do I capture these values? can pageContext.getParameter('id') can get these?
    (i have already tried to do this in processFormRequest() method and i found that it is working for LOV fields but not for text fields)
    2) if i can get the values in processFormRequest(), how can i open a browser/window for the new URL()
    e.g, i wanted to write something like this and the finalURL is what i wanted to open in a new browser or window as the actionEvent
        public void processFormRequest(OAPageContext pageContext,   OAWebBean webBean) {
    super.processFormRequest(pageContext, webBean);
       String param1 = pageContext.getParameter(“Param1”);
    String param2 = pageContext.getParameter(“param2”);
    String redirectURL = “http://rstnssiovm0072.us.oracle.com:8000/OA_HTML/OA.jsp?page=/oracle/apps/ak/ucm/axf/webui/RedirectToAxfPG&bypassPageCounterIncr=Y&retainAM=Y”;
    String paramURL = “&Parameter1=”+ param1+”&Parameter2=”+ param2;
    String finalURL = redirectURL+paramURL;
    Code part to open the url in a new browser/window
    If anybody can help me with these part, it will be a great help
    thanks a lot in advance

    Hi Poornima ,
    Has your prob resolved ? Have you made Managed attachment working via standard adapter as per UCM Admin guide ?
    Configuring the Managed Attachments Solution - 11g Release 1 (11.1.1)
    1. You have first store in some VO if you want to pass this metadata to UCM page , other wise it will not work .Take temp table /VO to store first then same can passed to UCM page as input parameters
    2.What needs to be passed , please refer webcenter guide with key examples given
    Once it is configured properly automatically params will be associated with URL which actually will open UCM page with metadata ( params) being passed.
    Thanks,
    Ashish
