Automatic rights at folder creation

Hello all: I am debating having my user profiles be written onto an NSS volume. Can I setup a folder that would allow a user to automatically create a folder for their profile for which only they have rights? Or am I stuck pre-creating the folders and setting the rights? If I give everyone full access to a specific folder, then they can automatically create the folders BUT everyone has full rights.
Doable? Thanks, Chris.

Thanks, Chris.

How do I get my downloads to open automatically, right now I have to find where my download folder is each time and then find the file I just downloaded. My download pop up screeen is also blank.

This should not have changed all by itself but it should be easy to change back

Batch folder creation with user specific sharing and rights properties

Hello all,
I need to create folders for over 120 users.
Each folder has to have specific rights per user.
the basic structure goes
-sharepoint
--USER1
*---(user1) submit*
+(drop box - everyone, (user1) - read right + owner, admin group - read right)+
*---(user1) share*
+(everyone - read only, (user1) - read right + owner, admin group - read right )+
---(user1)
+((user1) - read right + owner, everyone - no access, admin group - read right)+
--USER2
---(user2)submit
+(drop box - everyone, (user2) - read right + owner, admin group - read right)+
---(user2)share
+(everyone - read only, (user2) - read right + owner, admin group - read right)+
---(user2)
+((user2) - read right + owner, everyone - no access, admin group - read right)+
bold - folder
italics - rights
level of folder
and so on 120 times..
this is going to be a tedious task to do by hand and i was wondering if there was anyway to batch process the task. i have user lists already all i need is a way to make it
Any ideas??
Thanks

If the directory in which you are going to create the directories is called 'file-enclosing-directory', and the file is in your home directory on the server as "userlist" (one username per line), you can run this as a bash script, or from the command line. You will need to be a user that is able to change permissions within the directory.
Something like:
open Terminal
cd to the folder-enclosing-directory
for u in `cat ~/userlist`; do mkdir -p $u $u/submit $u/share; chmod 755 $u/share; chmod 773 $u/submit; chmod 751 $u; chown -R $u:admin $u; done
However, this will cause some problems getting to the interior folders without read permission on the outer folder. ACLs could help, or giving read permission to the $u folder, and having a locked-down third folder inside.
I hope this helps.

Automating Folder Creation

Here's what I want to do. I'm trying to automate client folder creation. I have a directory called clients. Every time I create a new folder in the clients folder, I'd like for it to automatically ask me what I'd like to name the folder, then I would like it to create 6 directories inside the created folder titled "legal" "spec files" "correspondence" "modules""graphic design" and "archived materials".
How would I go about that with automator?

A couple of options. The first uses automator and a shell script, but you would run the workflow which asks for a folder name instead of you creating it first, as you requested. The second uses Folder Actions so that when you create a new folder in your clients folder it will ask for a name and create the folders.
Automator Method:
1) From Files and Folders, drag over a "New Folder" action.
2) Enter a default name for the folder in the Name: field (or leave blank)
3) Select your Clients folder in the Where: field
4) Click the "Options" button and tell it to "show this action when the workflow runs"
5) From the Utilities, drag over a "Do shell script" action
6) Select the /bin/bash shell
7) in the Pass input field select "As arguments"
8) Enter this code mkdir -p $1/legal/ $1/spec files/ $1/correspondence/ $1/modules/ $1/graphic design/ $1/archived materials/
Save this workflow and run it when you want to create the new folder. If you have quick keys, launch bar, Quicksilver, or the like, you could set up a shortcut...or, you can use cmd-space to call up spotlight and search for you workflow name and launch it from spotlight.
For the Applescript option:
I had some glitches with it in that it seemed to re-run the script after I changed the name. I couldn't figure out if the name change drove the script to run again. Also, after creating the new folder, you have to wait a few seconds for it to trigger. Kind of annoying, I thought.
First, copy this script to a new Script Editor script (Applescript folder).
property dialog_timeout : 30 -- set the amount of time before dialogs auto-answer.
on adding folder items to this_folder after receiving added_items
try
tell application "Finder"
set theFolder to item 1 of added_items
set response to display dialog "Please enter a folder name:" default answer "New Client"
if button returned of response is not "Cancel" then
set the name of folder theFolder to (text returned of response)
make new folder at folder theFolder with properties {name:"legal"}
make new folder at folder theFolder with properties {name:"spec files"}
make new folder at folder theFolder with properties {name:"correspondence"}
make new folder at folder theFolder with properties {name:"modules"}
make new folder at folder theFolder with properties {name:"graphic design"}
make new folder at folder theFolder with properties {name:"archived materials"}
end if
end tell
on error theErr
display dialog theErr
end try
end adding folder items to
Save it as a script in your user/Library/Scripts/Folder Action Scripts/ folder. Run the Folder Actions Setup script in the Applescript folder and attach this script to your "Clients" folder:
1) Click on the Enable Actions checkbox
2) Click the "+" button in the left pane and find your clients folder
3) Click the "+" button in the right pane and find your script you just saved.

Home Folder Creation w/Active Directory

If this has been asked a million times, just point me to the url for the answer...
I have done the leg work and have the "magic triangle" working - I can login and auth to AD and get my preferences from OD. I want our user's home folders to reside on our Windows server. I have shared out \\server\students on the Windows server and in AD I am pointing their home folder to our Windows server, but I can't get the permissions right. When I point a new user's home folder in AD to our Windows server, it creates the folder \\server\students\jtest.
When the user logs in, none of the subfolders are created. Can someone give me some pointers on how permissions need to be set so the subfolders are created on first login?
This is all pretty new and I'm happy that I got the triangle to work - if I can get this all important piece, I'll be set.
Thx in advance!

Hi
A lot of this depends on how many OUs you have; how deep they go; and how many directories you have nested in each OU or the particular OU the directory for home folder creation is within. The accepted 'recommendation' is not more than 3 deep - generally. Having said that I have made it work with OUs 7-10 deep. Gets trickier after that.
In my experience the non-creation of expected directories is generally down to permissions not being assigned properly - as you've guessed. Essentially users must be given read/write access all the way down the nested directories. I have seen permissions assigned correctly to a parent folder, with a set of different permissions applied to the next folder down and the next one along again with the correct permissions applied. Folder creation fails when permissions are set in this way.
What is interesting is the log-in does not fail though you are greeted with the usual "the home folder exists on an SMB or AFP Server etc" dialog box when getting to the desktop. You sometimes get this at the log-in window as well. Although you can also see the message for other reasons - usually down to poor DNS configuration.
You should be able to log in as the local admin and look at the system.log in Console. You should see an error starting with 'NSurl etc etc. . . ' listed. If you do that's an indication it's a permissions problem.
Beyond this and without being there it's difficult to tell?
Hope this helps, Tony

Need New for Read Access except Folder Creation

Hi,
I have some problem which is as follows:
I have created the folder ABC in KM Content -> documents -> ABC and given the Read Rights to the user user1, then created the KM Navigation iView.
Now user1 can see the ABC folder and the documents under it. The problem is that now I want to have New in the context menu and in New except folder creation, all are needed.
How I can achieve it, please help me on this.
Regards,
Deep

Hi,
From previlages perspective If user1 should create folders under ABC, then he need more than just READ rights!!
If you need a context menu New Folder, then you should set new_folder
UICommand to your KM Navigation iView's Layoutset's Collection Renderer. The Collection Renderer property is Collection Command Group 
So have a new UI Command group and add the new_folder UICommand to it.

Automatic storage location view creation in maintenace order (IW31)

Hello,
Seems like I need some help.
Have configured automatic storage location view creation for GR and reservation. Configured movement types are 101, 201, 261. While creating reservations (201, 261 mvmnt. types) with mb21 the sloc view is automatically created in material master, and everything seems fine.
But in iw31 when I specify material number and sloc in a Components tab, I get an error message CO312: "The storage location data is not created". Automatic reservation is not created, and maintenance order can not be saved. Movement type 261 is used for automatic reservations for the maintenance order.
If I configure message CO312 as a (W)arning message, then it allows me to save the order and reservation, but sloc view in material master still is not created. Think that's not good and may lead to MRP issues.
How can I configure automatic sloc view creation in iw31? Is that possible?
Edited by: Konstantin Dudura on Nov 17, 2009 8:11 PM

Hi,
The customization required for Automatic Storage location creation at reservation are:
Goto : SPRO -> MM -> inventory Management and physical inventory -> Goods issue/ Transfer posting -> Create storage location automatically
first of all go to Plant and tick the automatic Storage location creation for the Plant. After that goto Movement type and tick the automatic Storage location for movement type 261.

BAPI for Automate direct debit proposal creation for selected customers.

Hello ABAP Gurus,
Requirement is - Changing the process for Automate direct debit proposal creation for selected customers from a custom BDC program to a BAPI.
Explanation -
Currently as per the process, we are using a BDC call transaction program for F110 - Automate direct debit proposal creation for selected customers. The main pupose of this BDC program is to automate F110 Bank Run for A/R (Selected Customers Only). It creates payment proposal which is the first step in order to create payment runs.This program will run in background.
We wanted to change the process from a BDC call transaction process to a BAPI call . In this process I am trying to chase for a valid BAPI in order to sync to my requirement.
It would be appreciate for your << removed >> response.
Thank you.
Regarsd,

Dynamic folder creation

Hi,
Without making any repository changes, is it possible to create folder based on dates and put the files in the corresponding date folder of that day?
Folder name : 05/26/2010 - Files created on 05/26 should be placed automatically into this folder
Folder name : 05/27/2010 - Files created on 05/27 should be placed automatically into this folder
Thanks

Check the Adapter Specifi Message Apttributes in the Receiver File Adapter and check the Directory option under it .
You will have to include a UDF to in the message mapping to set this Attribute for just one time and then never touch it .
the udf code will look like this
DynamicConfiguration conf = (DynamicConfiguration) container.getTransformationParameters().get(StreamTransformationConstants.DYNAMIC_CONFIGURATION);
DynamicConfigurationKey key = DynamicConfigurationKey.create("http:" + "/" + "/" + "sap.com/xi/XI/System/File", "Directory");
conf.put(key, dir);
dir is the variable that goes as input to the UDF and it shoudl be set on current date which ever way you want .
this udf can be included in the root node of the output and it just needs to get executed everytime the mapping runs.
Check the create target directory if it does not exist option int he receiver comm channel .
This will create the folder on its own based on the current date and you will not have to touch the message mapping or configuration ever.
ThankYou.

Robocopy not copying the folder creation date

We migrate the data between 2 Windowsfile servers using robocopy and it works finew ith issues. Only issue is it doesnt copy the folder creatiopn date from source to destination server, it does copy the file creation date without any issues. Command
we use is as below.
robocopy.exe %1 %2 /COPYALL /MIR /ZB /R:10 /W:2 /TEE /DCOPY /LOG+:robocopy_%3.log
This command is called using a batch file where we specify the source and destination using the below syntax.
call Robocopy_Module.bat "C:\Backup" "C:\Restore"
Kindly advise if this is normal behaviour , if not what is the correct command used to copy the Folder creation dates.

I was using like this
Go to CMD prompt,
RUN as Administrator
Type
robocopy "source path" "destination Path" / MIR
It will copy including time stamps.
or create seprate folder in a destination place and copy everything into that folder.
It will work.

Custom property not displaying at folder creation or Details screen

Hello everyone
I have created a custom boolean property that I need to have displayed both at folder creation and in the Details screen of a folder after it's created. The property is in the default namespace, and is in the Custom group. I have created a properties file for the label and created the necessary meta data extension. The folder validity pattern is " / " and the Resource Type listed is "normalct" so that it's active for folders only.
Then I went to Property Groups and listed my new property in the Group Items field of the Custom group. The Custom group is a part of "all_groups" so that group is displayed both when a new folder is created in KM and when the Details screen of a folder is displayed.
However, my custom property isn't displaying under the Custom tab when I go to create a new KM folder, nor when I view the Details screen of an existing folder. What configuration am I missing? Do I have to develop a custom property renderer for each new property I need to create? I was hoping I could achieve this result with configuration changes only, but I must be missing something.
Any help would be greatly appreciated and rewarded.
Thanks in advance,
Fallon

Hi Fallon,
actualy, if you want this property to be displayed only for folders and not for documents, you don't need to specify the resource type for folders. Setting "/" or "/**" for "Folder Validity Patterns" and "" (empty) for "Document Validity Patterns" should be enough.
If you sill experience problems, you have to check all settings, for example with the settings suggested in this <a href="https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/sdn/weblogs?blog=/pub/wlg/2654">weblog</a>. If you use the "default" Property Group in the property settings, you don't have to enter the Property ID in a special Property Structure Group that in turn is integrated in the all_groups Property Structure Group.
Hope this helps,
Robert

Is there a way I can set iTunes to add files automatically from a folder in my Windows PC?

Is there a way I can set iTunes to add files automatically from a folder in my Windows PC and ensure that it is synced automatically? For example, if I add or modify a file in that folder it should be added to iTunes automatically. At the same time the original files in the folder should not be re-organized. That is can I just point to a music folder in my hard drive and sit back for iTunes to do the rest?
