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
Regards,

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.

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..

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.

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.

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

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
