Change a Wiki group name?

Hello.
We've had a wiki set up for a certain group and I'm now required to change the name of said group. I set up a test group called "Test Group", created a wiki for them, then I changed the group name/shortname in WGM, but this new name isn't reflected in the wiki.
So, wondering, how do I go about making a change to the group name and have it reflected in the wiki?
Thanks,
Kristin.

i had the same problem, and found a solution which worked for me. some of these steps may not be necessary, but i'm not sure which, so...
1. in workgroup manager, turn off the services and save the group.
2. then, change the shortname (and long name if you wish), and save the group.
3. then, re-enable the services and save the group.
4. stop and restart the webserver and the wikiserver (see below)
5. use a browser to view the brand new, empty wiki for this group, which also creates the folder for the wiki in /Library/Collaboration/Groups
6. on the command line, become root and change to the /Library/Collaboration/Groups directory. in there, rename the new group folder to something else
7. rename the old group folder the new group name
8. inside the old group folder (with the new name), remove the index.db file
9. change all the plist files in this directory and any subdirectories to update the file locations to the new directory... (see below)
10. stop and restart the web and wiki servers (as #4)
11. use a browser to see the old contents under the new name
for items 4 and 10, i created the following script to make it easier for me...
#!/bin/tcsh
+if ( $uid != 0 ) then+
+echo 'must be root'+
else
+serveradmin stop teams+
+serveradmin stop web+
+sleep 2+
+serveradmin start web+
+serveradmin start teams+
endif
for item 9, as my wiki had nearly 150 pages, i didn't want to edit every file by hand, so inside the group folder i used the following command
sed -e '/oldgroupname/s//newgroupname/' -i .bk `find . -name \*.plist`
obviously, i didn't use "oldgroupname" and "newgroupname", and that command needs to be run as root.
that will use the find command to get the names of all the plist files, and sed will edit each file, changing all instances of the oldgroupname to the newgroupname, and keep a backup of the original plist file with a ".bk" added to the name.
hope this helps.

Changes to Item Group in Item Master

I currently have an Item Group in the Item Master set up as "Raw Material". I want to add another item to the group "Raw Material Packaging". I am looking for confirmation that if I set up the GL info the same on "Raw Material Packaging" as "Raw Material" there should not be a negative affect on the financial side or anywhere else.

Hello Jim,
If you want to set up a new Item Group exactly similar to the Raw Material Item Group.
Go to Administration > Setup > Items > Item Groups ....find the Raw Material Item Group...then
Go to Data Menu on the Top and Click Duplicate....Not Change the name to Raw Material Packaging and click Add
Now you have Raw Material Packaging Item Group with the same G/L Determination
Let me know if you have any questions or need clarification

Lost navigation after changing SharePoint group names

This morning I've changed the names of security groups of one of our subsites on our SharePoint intranet. After that, I noticed that the navigation did not mention the document libraries any more. I cannot believe changing the name of a security group can
have this consequence. Yet, I can see no document libraries any more in my navigation since this morning.
When I take a look at the navigation under site settings, I can still see these document libraries.

Problem was audience targeting.
Do the following,
Click the document lib and click edit
Now you have popup one window on this change the new group name under audience

Changing Group Names in ACS

I am working at a client site whom is running a fairly recent version of ACS. They have some old group names under Network that they want to change to make their descriptions more valid. Is it possible to change Network Device Group Names in ACS? How about changing just "Group Names".
Thanks
Kevin

Hi Kevin,
It seems you are asking about ACS 4.x. IF that is the case then yes, we can change NDG name.
Editing a Network Device Group
To edit an NDG, you must first access the NDG. To do so, click the name of the NDG in the Network Device Groups table. Click Edit Properties at the bottom of the page.
For changing individual aaa-client we need to delete and readd it.

How to find the group name for a section programatically?

I have these display formulas that are being repeated in each group footer. The only thing that changes are the group names.
How can I find the group name for the current section?
The bolded(or starred) items are what I'm trying to create a generic function for.
Ontario
     Bob
               1000     Sales     Other
               2000     Random     Billing
               200     Phone     Billing
     *Total for Bob*      3200
     Sally
               2000     Sales     Client
               1000     Random     Billing
                300     Cell     Billing
     *Total for Sally* 3300
*Total for Ontario*       6500
Thanks in advance,

I'm not sure if the GroupingLevel or GroupNumber fuctions will help. (There description in the on-line help leaves much to be desired, IMHO...)
If not, you could try adding formula fields to each level that sets a global variable to tell your other formula fields what level it is on. If you only have one or two other formulas, and only one or two groups, this really wouldn't be a whole lot easier. But if you had a lot of groups or a lot of formula fields that you want to make "group independent" it could help.
So for each footer, create a formula field like (basic syntax):
WhilePrintingRecords
global geoupLevel as String
groupLevel = "Province"
formula = ""
(changing the name given to groupLevel for each footer). Then in your "generic" formula you could put something like:
WhilePrintingRecords
global groupLevel as string
select case groupLevel
case "Province"
    formula = "Total for " + {Province}
case "Name"
    formula = "Total for " + {Name}
else
    Formula = "Totals"
end select

Items Group Code - Synch Between WebTools 2007

Hello everyone,
I am simply trying to find out the intent of how the Item Group synchs over to Web Tools. I know how it works upon initial synch, it goes into the Online Catalog (or whichever you choose) and goes into a category with the same name as the Item Group. Once it is there, however, does it (or should it) ever get kept up-to-date in that onlinecatalog? I have gone back in and changed the Item Group on the items and nothing synchs over. I don't believe that it should since someone could manually change it on the Web Tools side, but I just wanted to be sure. I didn't see it on the synch spreadsheet, but I do know that the initial synch puts it in the correct place. If someone could please clarify that woudl be great.
Thank you,
Kristen

Hi Kristen,
I am glad you brought this up, because it was a huge change we made.
The item group in B1 is NOT synonomous to a category in WT, so we stopped synching them in 626, and I expect there are some rough edges.
There are two primary problems:
1. Catalogs are a display mechanism for WT and have completely different properties in B1.
2. WT can have multiple catalogs (ie, itemgroups) and B1 has only one itemgroup. This causes problems with synch objects that require an itemgroup (because you can create WT subcategories that do not exist in B1).
The OnLineCatalog is created as a convenience so you do not have to replicate your item groups from B1. After that, changes no longer synch.
If you look at the catalog table, there is a "b1ItemGroup" catalog that synchronizes with B1 item groups. This is a one way synch, B1->WT, that allows us to populate the dropdowns that require itemgroups to synch back to B1. There are only two--the itemgroup on the Item and the itemgroup on the service contract.
This may be a very dirty fix, so your disparaging comments are more than welcome
I can get into further gory detail on the issue if required.

Thanks

hai Bongani Dlamini
Row level approval is not possible in SAP B1,as a work around try this query in approval template,this will help u to check
only first item,other wise u have to write stored procedure
SELECT DISTINCT 'True' FROM QUT1 T0 WHERE $[$38.1.1] =
(select distinct itemcode from oitm o1,oitb o2 where
o1.itmsgrpcod = o2.itmsgrpcod and o1.itemcode = (select $[$38.1.1] ) and o2.ItmsGrpNam like '%Software%' )

How to change Group-name of custom step-type?

Hello,
i´m using TS4.1 and miss a input-parameter which was avaiulable in TS3.5.
I have some labview-vis which should be TS-teststeps and they all shoul be placed in a group.
Do do this i open the "Types" and select one of my created types. The i rightclick the step and select properties.
In the tab "Menu" i can set a name for the step BUT the parameter to set the Group is no more available?
This was also in the Tab Menu in TS 3.5 but now in TS4.1 there is only Item-name.
Where can i set the Group-name od my steps?
Thx
Message Edited by OnlyOne on 06-10-2008 08:14 AM

Hi!
Now you can go in the Insertion Palette in TS 4.1 (the Step Palette on the left side) and right click on Customize... (see attachement)
There you have the menu where you can change the group for all steps in the palette.
So now you have the possibility to change, create and move groups inside your palette.
Best regards
Ken

Sales Analysis by Item Group (Monthly) - To include Sales Employee Name

Hi,
I have added Sales Employee Name in the Sales Analysis by Item Group (Monthly) report by A/R Invoices. I have added this under Repetitve Area Header0. However, the sales employee name showed in the preview is different than the criteria entered. It seems that the report only the first Sales Employee Name in the report.
Anyone have any idea? Thanks in advance
Regards,
MH

That is a good question. You have to find out any unique relationships between your Sales Employee and your sales analysis data if there is. Hope the help below can assist you:
Relate to
This option is relevant for special scenarios only and requires knowledge of SQL.
This field is used for retrieving data related to key records found in tables other than the table linked as default to the current print template.
A key record is a field used as a primary key in a certain table. This key record functions as the identifier of the record, and, therefore, it is required to retrieve any additional data related to it.
Following is an example:
e.g.If you need to print the name of a certain bank, which is not linked to the table used in the current print template, you must first create a Text field of Database source type using the required table and select a key record, such as Bank Code.
Then, you need to create an additional Text field of Database source type. Select the table again, select the required column (such as Bank Name), and enter the unique ID of the field with the key record in the Relate to field.
There might be two or more key records in the same table. In such a case, these two key records are both required for retrieving the data.
Identical bank codes are used in many countries. If you need to print the name of a specific bank, you need to link it to a relevant country, in addition to its relevant bank code.
You are currently working on a print template for Incoming Payments. However, you need to retrieve data (such as the business partner's bank name) linked to the key record Bank Code from the Bill of Exchange for Payment table, rather than from the Incoming Payments table.
In the Relate to field, select the unique ID of the field containing the required key record. In this example, this is a Text field of Database source type containing Bill of Exchange for Payment in the Table field and BP Bank Country in the Column field. The drop-down list contains the unique IDs of all the fields that are situated in the same area as the current field.
This link makes the system retrieve the Bank Code linked to the BP Bank Country field found in the Bill of Exchange for Payment table.

Can't change group names.

Anyone know why I can't change the names of my calendar groups? I right click > get info on the group and change the name from "group" to my desired name, and it just changes back to "group".

Greetings,
Anyone know why I can't change the names of my calendar groups?
A bad cache or bad calendar database would be my first guess.
Here are the steps I would try:
Remove the following to the trash and restart your computer:
Home > Library > Caches
Home > Library > Calendars > Calendar Cache, Cache, Cache 1, 2, 3, etc. (Do not remove Sync Cache or Theme Cache)
Home > Library > Preferences > com.apple.ical (There may be more than one of these. Remove them all.)
__NOTE: Removing these files will remove any shared (CalDAV) calendars you may have access to. You will have to re-add those calendars to iCal > Preferences > Accounts.
Once the computer is back up and running open iCal and test.
Hope that helps.

Changing existing Material Group user defined names to new mat groups

Hi Gurus,
My client is using conventional Material Groups user defined names for ages in their system.
Now they have requested us to workout for switching over to UNSPSC material groups Global Standardization.
While carrying out the exerice, they have asked us to completely clean up the entire system to replace the new material group with old in all Masterdata, transaction data including statistics table in pr, po, stock and in everything
If any one of you have carried out this exercise and if you have any useful documentation, please inform me
Thanks and Best Regards,
Mohan

Hi,
If you change the Material groups in Material master the system the system will not update the PR/PO/Stock or others.
You need to change all the documents to update the New Material groups.
For Material master update you can use the LSMW.
You can update the PR/PO also but if the PR/PO is subjected to Release Strategy then you need to derelease then change the material group then update and if it is based on the Material group then while update the new release strategy will apply and you have to change everything.
Think of that if you have huge data then it is very difficult to change all the documents. if the data is Less you can proceed .
Instead of deleting old material groups just add the new material groups and use them in future for all your process.

Change group name

How do you change the "group name" on the iphone 4 to something useful like relatives or friends?

Bill,
Once the group has been submitted we can change it if required - we decided that the user changing it on the APEX app would require a lot of propagation of changes through the system so we make any changes vi scripts and the back-end management tools.
Give me a few minutes to change the group name etc.
