Building an employee portal w BC. Add'l req incl company calendar+Outlook integration. Done this?

We are building an employee portal using BC. Additional requirements include a company calendar and a conference room scheduler also a link to Outlook Calendar. Anyone done anything like that?

Thanks Brett, we just signed up for O365 even though we are a Mac house, did it for compatibility with client stuff and for viewing on tablets. Will check out Sharepoint and see if we can figure out some of these handoffs from BC. Sales guys for our clients aren't going to give up Outlook even if they like our email campaigns :-)

    Hi,
    For initialization error, this is a solution from SAP Note:
    Solution
    1) Check on your MS SQL Server (Enterprise Manager) your server and use the right mouse click and choose "Properties". Select the
    "Security" Tab and then select under Authentification "SQL Server and Windows". Change if not selected and try to start the addons again.
    2) In the "Choose Company" (Administration>Choose Company) choose Current Server "Change" make sure that the "Use Trusted Connection" is de-selected. De-select and try to start again.
    3) When you start SAP Business One in the initial Logon Screen in the left corner make sure that the "Use NT Authentification" is de-selected.
    For resource error, the solution from SAP note:
    This error usualy occurs after an upgrade. To resolve this error, please do the following:
       1. Locate the Temp folder by going to Start -> Run and type %temp%.
       2. Locate the SM_OBS_DLL folder and rename it.
       3. Uninstall the DI API from Add/Remove Programs.
       4. Install the DI API from the latest patch.
       5. Connect to the addon again and the SM_OBS_DLL folder will be recreated and replaced with the latest version. You should now be able to connect sucessfully.

  • Path to XML form builder reports in Portal

    Hi Experts,
    I am facing one issue. We have few XML forms builder screens in Portal.
    Those were appearing fine but now one of them is not appearing properly.
    Please let me know under KM , where these reports are stored so that I can check whether these reports.

    Srini,
    The XML forms are under etc-xml forms.
    However, if the forms are not appearing properly, you would have to open it in XML forms builder and check.
    Assign yourself the Content Management role. Check this wiki for more details.

  • Outlook Integration add-on, the Snapshot template is missing

    hi,
         i have a query , when we start Outlook Integration add-on SAP B1, one window will a to generate snapshot template, but in the source folder there is no default template to generate snapshot templates in the destination folder. how to get those sanpshot  default templates from SAP portal or is there any other process to generate those snapshot template.
    sandip

    hi atul,
               well even i too face the same problem, but it is solved.
    1. when you install SAP b1 outlook addon, it is not going to create the folder with the default templates, for that you have to go the the addon folder where you have all SAP B1 addons, where you have all outlook integration addon,XL reporter addon,CopyExpress addon and even some other addons, in the same folder you will see ServerInstaller folder, you install that directly from the folder itself, it will create the require templates at the specific location.
    2. then from SAP B1 start you outlook addon and when you get the window of create template, just press the create button, this time it will create it sucessfully.
    now the snapshot template will be available in your system.
    i checked this it is working well in my system, follow the above process, you can able to solve your problem. if not revert me back.

    Just updated my iphone. Now I can se I have two! iCloud accounts? One of them appears on my phone, and I have forgotten the password. When I try to add the other account, I get the message that this account is already added, but with the name of the first account where there is no available password. I have tried several times to reset the password, bun I don't get the information I need - I have no access to email. What can I do?

    Hi, thanks for the suggestion. I have tried as you suggested, and when opening the "purchased" apps some have the icloud logo next to them, but I only have "OPEN" against "Find My iPhone". When opening it up, it goes through the same routine; needs to be updated before proceeding, and wouldn't update because I don't have IOS8.
    Anything else I could try, or am I doomed!
    All of your help is much appreciated, thanks

    How do I add a birthday to my calendar without it being an event ?

    Add them as a Contact.  They don't have to have a phone number.  Just create a Contact with their name and relevant information.
    Your Contacts app is used for more than just phone numbers.  Email addresses, physical addresses, date of birth, etc.  Use the 'Add Field' option to see all the possibilities.

  • After the latest update, all my apple products reverted to an old icloud account.  As it no longer exists, I cannot get into it to delete it and add the correct id.  How can I change this, especially on my Macbook pro?

    After the latest update, all my apple products reverted to an old icloud account.  As it no longer exists, I cannot get into it to delete it and add the correct id.  How can I change this, especially on my Macbook pro?  There is no p/w related to it and even though I tried to reset "password" it won't allow as the id does not exist, neither does the email associated with the old id.  How do I switch it to a newer id?

    It's all rather odd because the old account cannot 'no longer exist' - if you don't have the correct password you won't be able to get into it, but you can't actually delete an iCloud account from the server.
    I'm afraid you will need the services of iCloud Support. If you currently happen to have AppleCare, either because you recently bought Apple hardware or have paid to extend the inititial period, you can contact them here:
    http://www.apple.com/support/icloud/contact/
    You will need the serial number of the covered hardware.
    If you are not covered by AppleCare, then - in common with other free email services - there is no free support and you may be asked to pay a fee.
