Content disappears once Lifetime (Time-Based Publishing) is enabled

We have transported KM content from our Dev KM to our QA KM.  We noticed that the Lifetime setting of the folder was not transported, so we enabled it on the folder in QA.  Once the lifetime is enabled in QA, the content disappears from the iView display.  On our Dev KM, it is working correctly.
We checked the content and each has Valid-to and Valid-from fields set the same as it is in Dev.  They should be displaying as they do in Dev.
The transport was done first using online ICE.  When that did not work we did it again using offline ICE, transporting a .zip file from Dev to QA.
Any ideas as to what might be happening?
Both QA and Dev are EP 7.0 SPS 11.

Hi,
If you transported the KM files with ICE, then the Application-Defined Properties
such as Valid From and Valid Until for time-dependent publishing are not transported due to limitations in ICE transport.

  • Repository Services - Time based publishing missing

    Hi,
    We are running NW07, and want to configure time based publishing.
    I can't find the Repository Services for this it is suppose to be under
    System administratoin -> Content Management -> Repository Services
    But it is not,
    can anyone help?

    After that, you have to define the real lifetime

    An keep in mind that only users with not more than read permissions will see the document only during its lifetime. Users with write additional permissions can always see it

  • Time-based publishing

    Hello All,
      I'm trying to use lifetime documents following this link
    http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw2004s/helpdata/en/d1/5b6635f5e0ef428fb513336881679b/frameset.htm
    So I have done thoose steps:
                  activate lifetime property in my folder
                  activate tasks "valid from" and "valid to"
    I'm trying to activate time-based publishing service (TBP) but I'm unable to find it in the portal.
       I have loocked in System Administration->System configuration->KM->Content Management->Repository Services and in System Administration->System configuration->KM->Content Management->Global Services without sucess.
       How can I check/configurate if TBP is running on the Portal?
       Do I have to do something more for use lifetime documents service?
       I'm using NW 2004s and EP7.0
       Thanks in advance,
       Regards

    Hi Yaiza,
    TBP service should be running in your portal but the configuration of the service cannot be changed. You need only to register this service with a repository and you must also register the application property service as it is described here: <a href="http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw2004s/helpdata/en/c1/c87d3cf8ff3934e10000000a11405a/frameset.htm">Time-Dependent Publishing Service</a>
    This registration is done by default for standard /documents repository in the portal.
    Please be aware that the user with read/write permission for the folder where you have activated Time-dependant Publishing will be able to see all documents in that folder. Please refer to this: <a href="http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw2004s/helpdata/en/e8/a9a76828b8dc469969ff450ec81ced/frameset.htm">Lifetime of Documents</a>
    Please remember to set valid time periods for your documents. When time-dependant publishing is activated properties <b>valid from</b> and <b>valid to</b> have the same value by default.
    One more thing is to set correct CM systems for scheduler task for TBP (at least on system in clustered environment) <a href="http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw70/helpdata/en/d1/5b6635f5e0ef428fb513336881679b/frameset.htm">Scheduler Tasks for Time-Dependent Publishing</a>

  • XML Forms Time-based publishing

    Hi,
    I'm testing an XML form that uses Time-based publishing but it isn't working correctly. The fields in the Edit form that correspond to Valid to / from are working. When I input the timestamps, they show up in the properties. I have also activated the Time Based Publishing service for this folder (it is in the documents repository). I have created two forms, one that should be published and one that shouldn't. When I test the iview with my administrative user, both appear (this is the expected behavior)
    When I log in with a user who only has Read permissions on that folder, I can't see any content. I've tried different combinations of dates for the elements but nothing seems to be getting through. I've also waited for the 15 minutes that the guide establishes for the content to appear but nothing shows up. What could be the problem?
    Thanks for your help,
    Luis

    hi
    There are Valid to & Valid from properties in the data model section of the XML Forms Builder. Would imagine you could play around with these as a starting point.
    when creating the XML Form, you can drag and drop the KM Properties "Valid From" and "Valid Until" from the left pane "Data Model" -> "Properties" -> "Lifetime" on your form. activate the tbp (time-based publishing) service on the used repository and also to "Enable Time-Dependent Publishing" on every folder where you want to use the forms (from the folder menu "Details" -> "Settings" -> "Lifetime".pèleas also go through this

  • XML form Time based Publishing

    Hi Everyone
    I added the valid until and valid from properties to the XML form and activated the time dependent publishing for the folder where this form is displayed. My problem is that it is not taking the time that I enter in the XML form fields but considering the time only if I go to the details tab of that particular doc and set up the lifetime. I want to set this up in the edit form of the XML form. Can somebody please tell me if I am missing something.
    Thanks

  • Time-based publishing stopped working

    Hi,
    We currently have a problem with time-based publishing in KM. Since a few days ago, documents stopped becoming visible once they reach their "valid from" date. We have not been able to publish documents with TBP since then on that system.
    These errors keep appearing in the knowledgemanagement.#.log files, which seem related to this issue :

    Hi,
    1.  Have you checked that tbl service continue assigned to your repository ?
    2. If you create a new repository and assign these service, does it work ?
    Enables users to define a time frame during which documents are published (visible).
    Note that the time-dependent publishing service requires the application property service.
    This service cannot be configured.

  • Time Based publishing on taxonomy

    Hi there,
    we have built a news application where everyone can post it's own news items. Location of the user is a personal folder created by using a userhome filter. The folder has time based publishing activated, the lifetime can be entered in the edit form or directly on the news item through 'details'.
    To display all items for all users, a taxonomy is used. However, the lifetime is ignored and all items are visible to all users.
    I have activated the tbp service on the /taxonomies repository, as well as enabled 'lifetime' on my 'news' subfolder (everyone has read permissions on this one). Unfortunately, still all items are visible to all users.
    Is TBP possible on a taxonomy?
    Thanks,
    Kevin

    Hi Kevin,
    we have kind of the same scenario here.
    We have a KM Folder where editors are editing news. This folder has a taxonomy to display different views on this news folder. TBP is activated in the folder.
    It works like that:
    Endusers only see valid news in the taxonomy folders. BUT editors are seeing even the expired ones, nevertheless that they only have Read permissions in the Taxonomy and /taxdata repository. So it seems to us that the "Full control" permission from the Source KM Folder is kind of overwriting the Read only permission in the Taxonomy. (Maybe you have the same problem)
    Our solution might be that we are programming a "KM Resource List Filter" to filter out the unwanted expired news out of the taxonomy folder for the editors as well.
    Cheers
    Christoph

  • Time Based Publishing - Not Working

    Hello SAP KM Gurus-
    I had configured Time Based Publishing to work on our clustered portal.  Everything worked fine until we went to a central instance / dialog set-up.  Now Time Based Publishing no longer works and I can't seem to get it to work no matter what I do.  I have so far:  scheduled the job on only one instance (as per the clustering guidelines in SAP Library), turned it on with properties with the repository (and for the folder I wish to use) and have checked to make sure the service is okay in KM Configuration.  However, it seems like the job never comes by to hide the documents b/c they just show up for Read users no matter what I change.  As I stated before, this was working fine until we went to the new configuation.
    I've checked SAP Notes with no luck.  Anyone have any idea why this is not working?  I'm fresh out.
    Any help greatly appreciated...
    Jim

    Hello Anjali-
    Thanks for your post.  Yes, I have checked that.  Here are my settings - I have Check Valid From assigned to one instance running on  the Central Instance and Check Valid To assigned to the other instance (we have two instances on each server) as per the help docs.  In component monitor, tbp is coming up green and the properties it is State-Ok.  On the repositories, I have both tbp and properties assigned and when I enable tbp I can get the lifecycle tab for the documents.  It appears as if everything is set up right.  However, the read users can see the documents just fine when they shouldn't.  It seems as if the Check Valid From and Check Valid To jobs just never run.
    Is there anyway I can see if the jobs have run and what the schedule was?  The tbp report also showing nothing...  Does it look like I'm doing anything wrong above.  I'm on EP 14/KM 14 by the way...
    Thanks for your help-

  • Time-based publishing in Web Page Composer

  • Time based publishing with WebDynpro ?

    Hello All,
    I need to validate the documents from KM before showing them in my Web Dynpro application depending on the Time based publishing properties.
    I read the documentation on SDN for the same and tried using this example -

  • Dependency between time based publishing and statemanagement?

    Hi,
    how it is the dependency between time based publishing  and statemanagement?
    thanks¡¡

    Hi,
    If you publish documents time-dependently, there is not normally an approval process. Time-dependent publishing can, however, be combined with an approval process.
    If you want to publish both time-dependently and with an approval process, a document can only be viewed by people with read permission if it is valid and if all approval steps have been successfully completed.

  • Enable time based publishing on more tha one folder

    Is it possbile to enable time base publishing on more than one folder at a time? I have a large hierarchy and it would be nice if I didn't have to change alle the folders.

    Hi Ingvild,
    It is possible to enable Time-based publishing in multiple folders.
    But you need to write some custom code to make it possible.

  • Check time based publishing from Java

    Hello all,
    How can I check whether a resource is valid with respect to time based publishing from Java?
    I had a look at the IResource JavaDoc, hoping that there would be an isTimeBasedValid() (or thereabouts) method, but there isn't.
    So obviously I must simply check the valid from and valid untill properties against 'todays' date/time. The problem is that I don't know the name of these properties. I imagine that they are in the namespace 'IWcmConst.SAP_WCM_NAMESPACE' but as far as the name goes, I'm stuck. I had a look at the IWcmConst JavaDoc, since I know that other properties have constant values there, such as displayname and description etc, but I can't see constants for valid from and valid untill.
    As per, any help is greatly appreciated.
    Patrick.

    That's because it's not part of the core API.

    As far as I can tell, properties used by the TBP service should be considered an implementation detail. To obtain the information you need, you'll first have to get an instance of the currently running TBP service, and then use it's methods to obtain the dates (see <http://media.sdn.sap.com/html/submitted_docs/60_sp2_javadocs/km/com/sapportals/wcm/repository/service/timebasedpublish/ITimebasedPublishServiceManager.html>).

  • Time Based Publishing not supported in WPC

    Hi all,
    I want to implement Time Based Publishing for some WPC resources (for example: web articles or paragraphs, ie: not for pages, but resources).
    Sadly, it seems that is not allowed. There is the following note: 1310768 - Time Based Publishing not supported in WPC.
    Does anyone know an alternative way to achieve this TBP behavior? I thought developing some task scheduler service, or perhaps a namespace filter.... , some help will be thanked!
    Question aside: I don't understand why standard TBP is not supported, being a WPC's web article a standard KM resource. Don't you find strange?
    Thanks in advance,
    Best regards,
    Marcelo

    In case anyone is interested, I asked SAP about it.
    They said that TBP for WPC is only available to pages, and since 7.3 is the only time based publishing feature available for WPC. Beside that, they made clear the difference betweeen WPC and KMC... I supposed (wrong) that WPC was relied on KMC,
    So.. I'm really stuck on this.
    I'll keep this question opened in case anyone could help or maybe share an idea,
    Thanks in advance
    Best regards,
    Marcelo
