CFOLDER COLLABORATION/ FOLDER EXPIRY

Hi,
Is it possible to set an expiry to the collaborations or folders created in Cfolder so that after the given date/ period the folder/ collaboration becomes in active
Regards
Abhishek

Hi Abhishek,
In this case You need to write a report and execute the report in background daily...
The inputs could be cFolder collaboration GUID, closure date..
The program would check the dates and change the status..

Password cotrol-cFolder-Collaborative Folder-Main Vendor & Sub-vendor

We are interacting with main vendor and sub-vendor for document submission and its approval through collaborative folder of cFolder tool.
In this respect, only main vendor's UID and its password is used for collaboration for the above process. The same UID and password is shared by sub-vendor also.Every 90 time elapse, system prompts user to change its password. If any user i.e. sub-vendor or main vendor changes the password, then other user are not able to login into system as all various user are logging into from country's different location.
Our objective is to control the password in such a way that only one user i.e. main vendor can change the password and other location's sub-vendor need not face the change of password for same collaborative folder
Exmple
At one location.
Main Vendors' UID=V_1000346
Password            =password123
Diferent location
Under Same UID   =V_1000346
Sub-vendor UID    =V_1000456
Password             =password456

Hi
I am again giving details of scenario as below:-
Our objective is to control the password in such a way that only one user i.e. main vendor can change the password and other location's sub-vendor need not face the change of password for same collaborative folder
Exmple
At one location.
Main Vendors' UID =V_1000346
(UID = User ID of Vendor who logs into cfolder for Interaction with organisation for Drawing?document handling like approval / rejectio.)
Password =password123
Diferent location
Sub-vendor is performing action on behalf of main vendor under same UID=V_1000346 and same password assigned earlier.
Under Same UID =V_1000346
Each user logs into cfolder under collaborative scenario of cFolder.
System prompts user to change password for each user logs into the system after elaps of 90 days. In this caes any user of main vendor or sub-vendor who so ever first gets chance to log into the sytem is prompted for change of password.
Can you suggest that each individual user(having UID and password) will be able to log into Cfolder in same collaborative scenarion under same collaborative folder.

CProjects - cFolder collaboration folder creation

HI Gurus,
I am completely new to cProjects.
My Query:
I need to create a cFolder for the project at the time it is Released.
So, i used the BADi DPR_EVENTS on method ON_DPO_RELEASED.
for cFolder creation i used the FM: CFX_API_COLLABORATION_CREATE it creates a folder in cFolder but not in respective cProjects for the project i created. Is there any other FM or is there any solution so when user release project it creates a cFolder in both cProjects and cFolder ( Design collaboration scenario) which is interconnected with a link.
If need more information then please let me know.
Regards
Giri

Hi,
Here is your code:
DATA:
o_project type ref to cl_dpr_project_o,
ES_PROJECT_INT type DPR_TS_PROJECT_INT,
collab_id type SYSUUID_C,
name type string.
o_project ?= ir_sender.
o_project->get_data_ext(
 IMPORTING
 ES_PROJECT_INT = ES_PROJECT_INT
name = es_project_int-project_id.
CALL FUNCTION 'CFX_API_COLLABORATION_CREATE'
EXPORTING
I_TEMPLATE_ID =
 I_NAME = name
 I_DESCRIPTION = 'Test'
 I_IS_SYNDICATE = 'no'
I_DEADLINE =
 I_SCENARIO = 'collaboration'
 I_IS_TEMPLATE = 'no'
IMPORTING
 E_COLLABORATION_ID = collab_id
The Field type for project definition GUID that the bapi accepts and one that you are passing donot match.
One that you are apssing is of type RAW 16 and bapi accepts CHAR 32.
Simply do this:
data: lv_proj_guid type DPR_TV_BAPI_GUID_PROJECT.
lv_proj_guid = es_project_int-guid.
CALL FUNCTION 'BAPI_BUS2172_COLLAB_ADD'
EXPORTING
 PROJECT_DEFINITION_GUID = lv_proj_guid
 IV_COLLABORATION_GUID = collab_id
 IV_CFOLDERS_DESTINATION = 'UFD400_TRUST'
Hope this works

CFolder - Collaboration Room

Hi there,
Somebody knows how can I do to activate the cFolder (Collaboration Room). I have to activate the BADI "Control for Collaboration Folders"?
If I do this, the link of collaboration room will be show in "Document" link inside the portal?
Thanks,
Pedro Marques

Hi,
Do you have cFolders on the same server as SRM ?
Foll are the settings reqd:
--.define a LS for cFolders( you have to duplicate SRM LS if it is on the same server)
-->define an RFC destination for this system (even if same as SRM)
-->define a backend system of type cFolders in SRM SPRO
-->activate SICF cFolders service (with external alias)
Normally the collaboration area should be displayed in document tab.

Restrict Permission to change the Folder name of Cfolder Collaboration

Hi,
As a part of my requirement i would like to restrict the users having the 'WRITE' authorizations from changing the folder name of folders created under the collaboration. It would be great if you any one can provide some inputs to achieve it

Hello Vikas,
I can tell you a workaround, how to achieve this.
as an administrator with admin authorization navigate into a folder press the authorization button and select read authorization for (a) user(s)/user group(s)/role(s) used in the collaboration.
Then create under the folder a new folder "Workspace" and navigate into this folder press the authorization button and select write authorization for (a) user(s)/user group(s)/role(s) used in the collaboration.
The procedure could be automated by writing a piece of code, which calls the cFolders APIs:

Diff between Sharepoint and cFolder collaboration capabilities?

Hello,
Which one gives better collaboration capability, Microsoft SharePoint or cFolder? If you can share any document which list the individual advantages or comparison, it will be great help.
Thanks,
Avinash

Hi,
SAP has always taken a knock for its lack of usability and SAP content management is no different. Whilst working in the GUI may not be an issue for a maintenance engineer, working in the GUI is not practical for a document controller or non-SAP literate staff. They don't work with anything other than MS Office and Google interfaces on a daily basis so trying to get them to use SAP transaction codes is difficult. Products like SAP Easy Document Management work, but have vastly scaled down functionality and still require SAP Workflow to function so users will always be forced to work in the SAP GUI at some point.
To understand how important usability to users, lets consider that SharePoint has always lagged behind the big 3 when it comes to functionality but it had two things going for it - usability and cost. In the case of cost, most companies were already licensed for the functionality but this hasn't stopped companies from spending additional money on third party workflow products. The key reason for the success is the ease of use largely attributed to the seamless integration SharePoint offers into the Microsoft suite of products that users work with on a daily basis.
Hope you get some idea.
Thanks

CFolder Integration with SNC

Hi Experts,
We are integrating cFolder with SAP SNC (Supply Network Collaboration) application. Both SNC and cFolder application are installed on the same server. We have activated cFolder within SNC application. As per SAP help, we have not added any RFC destination for cFodler as it is on the same server as SNC.
Now when I try to open cFolder link from SNC application, it throws an exception
"Error in CFX Call: An exception occurred that was not caught."
I checked ST22 for the error and found that the application is not able to find cFolder URL. It is failing at below code:
get relative ERL
e_url = cl_cfx_fol_ui =>get_url_for_fol(
icol_id = l_col_id_str
i_area_id = l_area_id_str
i_topic_id = i_topic_id_str
i_role = ' ' ).
I can see that relative collaboration folders are created in cFolder. cFolder application when opened directly from SE80 is opening properly. So it is evident that SNC is able to communicate with cFolder and also able to create collaboration folder. However, when the cFolder window is opening, it fails.
Request you to please help on how to solve this issue.

Hi,
The DP & SNC cannot be integrated on the fly, SAP also does not give the option to enable the integration. Technically APO & SNC use two different databases. If there is a need there has to be custom development to achieve this.
There are numerous ways to achieve this using custom development. One possibility is download the keyfigures (forecast) & convert to the XML message (confirming the XML format required for SNC) then upload them using the SAP standard interface using SPROXY transaction. Now you can see the forecast data of DP in SNC.

Hi Niranjan,
I am facing a similar error. When i am trying to assign a Collaboration Folder to the Collaboration Project, the search option gives results showing as Blank title. Hence when i select one of the results shown which has a blank title the system gives an error saying enter the name of the Collaboration Folder.
This is some unusual error.
Please guide me on this.
