In jdeveloper , you can customize the profile taskflow and build your own UI for displaying the user profile attributes.In this way you can only customize (rename or
delete ) the existing attributes which are provided by webcenter spaces.
otherwise you can use REST API's for building your custom UI build use them in taskflows to add the custom attributes which will be available in resource catalog in webcenter spaces .
or.
if you use DesignWebCenterSpaces for your spaces application then use the jdbc code and fetch the attributes for spaces user from custom schema /tables in databases or use LDAP.

Reading term based user profile attributes

Hi there,
I configured a user profile attribute that is based on a term set. Now, when I read out the value from JSOM or REST I only get the string value. I really want to retrieve the GUID of the stored term, in order to read out additional data from the term store,
like the parent term, custom properties, etc.
So, the question boils down to: How do I read out the term's GUID from the stored term in the user profile attribute?
[EDIT]
I also tried out the server-side API. Unfortunately, this returns the stored term as a string as well.

Hi,
Would you mind providing more details about what user profile attribute you are using and how you add value to it?
You said that you can only get the string value, so you might use a string type of property.
Here is a documentation about
Default user profile properties:
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/hh147513(v=office.14).aspx
I suggest you log the response JSON out to the console of the browser(console.log()) to see if there is a term’s GUID attribute.
Feel free to reply with the test result if there are still any questions.
Thanks

Spaces Profile Attributes

I am looking to add some custom attributes to the WebCenter Spaces (11.1.1.4) user profile and a cannot find any documentation regarding this issue. I have followed the examples from the WebCenterSpacesExtensions and DesignWebCenterSpaces tutorials. In there i found a sample of changing an attribute to return a constant string, but I cannot find a way to access the LDAP layer and read a different property.
Can anyone help me? 10x

Color Management Custom Profiles - None available (Vista)

I get bad color in my prints from LR. My printer supports Adobe RGB, and hence I believe it would fix the problem is I could get LR to convert the image to Adobe RGB before printing. Under Color Management, I click on "Managed by Printer" to get a popup menu that has both "Managed by Printer" (checked) and "Other" as options. I select "Other" and a window appears with the title "Choose Profiles" and the text "Choose profiles to appear in Custom Profile popup:" The problem is that the window is empty. There are no choices! I have checked and I have the ICC files installed in Windows\System32\spool\drivers\color and they are associated with my printer by windows. I copied and add icm versions of the icc files. Still no profiles appear.
Does this work for others? Can anyone get any options to show up?
Thanks for any help or advice.

AdobeRGB and sRGB are NOT printer profiles, they are color spaces and you should not be able to select them in Lightroom. You need actual printer profiles if you want to print application managed from lightroom. Almost every reasonably modern printer includes them. It looks like this printer does not include them in a way so that you can use them. On most printers, you can still print printer managed, but it appears that this printer is not correctly color managed. I checked out the manual for it and it clearly is not color managed at all. Typical for HP's consumer line unfortunately. Apart from having a profile generated by any of the places that do that for you (which is about as expensive as an ink cartridge), I don't think you can print to this thing from Lightroom at all. In this case, really the printer manufacturer is to blame. They should have been doing ICC/ICM color management ages ago instead of relying on all applications to be dumb. It still stinks though.

Rich Text Editor with Custom Text Attribute

Hello All,
We are using the latest version of Oracle Portal 10G. I have a need to create custom Attributes of the type text to let people enter a lot of text. But when User are in edit mode of an item where this custom attribute is used, the Rich Text Editor is not shown for entering the Text for the Custom Text Attribute. It shows a normal html text area. Has anyone ever used RTE with Custom Attribute?
I request you guys for help.
Thanks.

The Problem with the Custom Attribute is not solved, but I have now compromised with the Situation and now I am not using a Custom attribute.
Rather, Now I am creating a Custom Item Type using Base Text Type (earlier i wanted to create custom item type at my own without any base item type). In this case now I will not be able to change the Lable of the RTE (that is "Text", when the Custom Item is in Edit Mode), but I hope that my users can understand that much.
I have created a template for portal pages. In the Template I can edit the Region Properties. When I edit the Region property of the region where I want to display my Custom Items. I get two Tabs on the top, Main and Attributes/Style. ON the main tab I can tell what type of region it should be, width etc, in my case it is item type region. And on the Attributes/Style tab, I can select from the availabe Attributes as which all Attributes I want to display. Here if i select only "Associated Functions" Attribute then normally portal should not render anything by default on the Page. It should rather make a call to the procedure which is associated with the Custom Item and as when I was creating the custom item type, I had clicked on "Display Procedure Results With Item", so portal should now display the result of my Procedure. So far it works without problem.
But the problem is that the Portal displays the text at its own also. As i have written that Portal should not display anything at its own, this doesn't work in this version of Portal for a Custom Item Type that is made using Base Text Item Type. For all others it has worked till now (I have create 50s of Custom item types).
You can better understand by going to the following URL. Just have a look between the two dotted lines (Dotted line is also a seperate Custom Item Type). Between the two Dotted Lines is a custom item, in general it would be a Custom News Item having title, image and so on.
http://sunnode1.edvz.sbg.ac.at:7778/portal/page?_pageid=79,56047&_dad=portal&_schema=PORTAL
I have really programmed a lot with portal but now at this stage where I am near to end, I am getting problems which are coming from Product. I request you for help.

Custom Dynamic Attributes

Hello Experts:
Does anyone knows if it is possible to create a Custom Dynamic Attribute for Bid Comparison where this custom Attribute can be automatically filled through a function module or program with some calculated value?
My requirement is to provide an automatic supplier qualification which can be used as a comparison attribute, the qualification could be calculated using supplier information from previous POs, Confirmations, etc.
Hope you can help me out
Hugo

Hi,
Dynamic Attributes for Bid Invitation can be created using customization.
SPRO-> SRM Server->Bid Invidation - > Dynamic Attributes.
Generally the response to the dynamic attributes are given by Bidder when submitting the Bid.
For automaic population of response to the bidder do you want to do through report ?
you can implement "BBP_DOC_CHANGE" BADI metod "BBP_QUOT_CHANGE" for pupulating the response of dynamic attribute while submitting BId.

Canon 5d2 DNG +custom profiles = bad preview in Bridge?

I'm using DNG Profile Editor (1.0.0.39 Beta 2) to make custom profiles for my new Canon 5D Mark II, and then using DNG Converter (5.2) plus Photoshop CS3 Bridge to process images. All on Windows XP.
After my 5D2 custom profiles were in place I noticed that the image preview in Bridge CS3 was "bad." The Bridge preview is very blurry and does not update when changes are made to the DNG file via ACR. For example, if I change exposure in ACR and click "Done" or "Open in Photoshop, the change is saved OK in the DNG file but the Bridge preview remains the original blurry image.
Took a long time to figure this out because I did not immediately associate the problem with the creation of custom profiles. Older 5D2 DNG files previewed OK in Bridge, as did DNG files from my other cameras. I even re-converted some old camera raw files to DNG and they previewed OK in Bridge. There are custom profiles in place for those older cameras.
I spent a lot of time on the usual suspects - purging cache, reseting preferences. All to no avail. Then I removed all my custom profiles and deleted the index.dat file. Ran DNG converter again to make new DNG files from the 5D2 raw. Now the Bridge preview was OK. Then I restored my custom profiles and converted raw to DNG again, getting bad Bridge previews again. Yet the previous converted files would still preview OK in Bridge.
My conclusion: The DNG converter is using camera profiles during the conversion, and in the case of 5D Mark II raw files is creating an error. I'm guessing it is putting an embedded jpeg in the DNG file that somehow confuses Bridge.
I've repeated the tests many times now. I've changed the DNG Converter "jpeg preview" preference to none, medium and full. For the 5D2 files I get bad Bridge previews on all settings. But I get good Bridge previews on my Canon 20D and Canon 1Ds DNG files regardless of any settings. Regardless of the presence or absence of custom profiles, regardless of the jpeg preview size, regardless of the ACR default settings.
So I'm hoping the Adobe team can take a look at this. Or anyone willing to confirm or deny my tests. I don't have an easy way to post a DNG file, but could email one of my "bad" ones to anyone willing to take a look.

The lack of response to this post forced me to keep testing. Now I've more closely pinpointed the problem and found an easy work around. First some background.
ACR camera profiles are stored in two places. The Adobe supplied profiles are in:
C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Adobe\CameraRaw\CameraProfiles
and your custom profiles are in:
C:\Documents and Settings\yourusername\Application Data\Adobe\CameraRaw\CameraProfiles
Adobe Camera Raw, and it turns out the DNG Converter, both build an Index.dat file in this last folder. Apparently this index is built by scanning both camera profile directory trees and building a list of all the profiles it finds. It then sorts that list alphabetically by the profile name that is embedded in the file, not the Windows file name.
The "Adobe Standard" profile for a camera has a file name like "Canon EOS 5D Mark II Adobe Standard.dcp", but embedded in that file is the profile name of just "Adobe Standard". That's why only "Adobe Standard" shows up in the drop down list of profiles in ACR. And that's why "Adobe Standard" appears before "Camera Faithful", which appears before "Camera Landscape". It's alphabetical order.
Now, when you create a custom profile with the DNG Profile Editor, the "Export" function puts "Canon EOS 5D Mark II" on the front of the name. If you are an idiot, like me, you type over all that with something simple like "5D2 Bouce Flash" for the profile name. But wait, "5D2 Bounce Flash" sorts alphabetically before "Adobe Standard" and appears first in the ACR drop down menu. Sounds OK so far.
But then the magic occurs. The DNG converter uses the camera profiles. It actually accesses that Index.dat file, and if it does not exist, the DNG converter will rebuild it, just like ACR. Why it does that I can't imagine. Seems to me that the DNG converter should be simply converting raw to DNG and passing the EXIF and embedded camera jpeg along as is. What need does it have for camera profiles?
Anyhow, if that 5D2 profile is first in the list due to its alpahbetical name, the resulting DNG file will confuse Bridge. Bridge will display a fuzzy preview and will never update that preview, or the thumbnail, when you make adjustments in ACR.
But if you name the 5D2 custom profile such that it sorts alphabetically after "Adobe Standard", then all is OK. The DNG files can be previewed and thumbed OK by Bridge. So I named my custom profile "My 5D2 Bounce Flash", a simple workaround.
Now I can move on to more important things. Like generating a good custom profile for the 5D2. So far the Adobe Standard profile beats anything I've generated. Especailly if I remove that curious Point Curve which can sometimes muck up the shadows.
And now that Bridge previews are "OK" I can work on the mystery of why Bridge Previews of 5D2 DNG files do not match the previews of their equivalent TIF or PSD files. If you're curious you can see samples and read more about that here: http://forums.dpreview.com/forums/read.asp?forum=1032&message=30748423

Custom tag attribute calculated by scriptlet expression

Hi,
          If I set the rtexprvalue subelement of the attribute element in my tld to
          "true", should I be able to dynamically determine the value of my custom tag
          attribute using a scriptlet expression?
          When I include the custom tag reference:
          <prod:getCategory id="category"
          categoryID="<%=request.getParameter("catID")%>" scope="page"/>
          it actually gets written to the html as:
          <prod:getCategory id="category" categoryID="2133" scope="page"/>
          and is not recognized as a jsp tag.
          I am using weblogic 6.0 sp1.
          Thanks in advance!
          daniel


I had the same problem in a design a couple of months ago and could not get around it so I switched the functionality into code and out of the tag lib.
I take it you are trying to do something like this?
<%
String value="hiworld";
%>
<mytaglib:saysomething value="<%=value%>"/>

Configuring approval for update of some profile attributes

Hi All,
I need to configure approval when some of the profile attributes are updated.
1. How do i know which attribute is updated?
2. How do i configure approval ?
Thanks in Advance.
Shrinath

The standard strategy for detecting which attribute has been updated is to add a hidden "shadow" attribute for each attribute.
Implementing your scenario turns out to be a bit complex but I think the following approach should work.
To implement your scenario you also need a boolean flag for each attribute kept in a db table or lookup table (not on the USR form). This flag is normally set to false.
When a change comes in the shadow attribute is used to detect which attribute is updated through a post insert event handler (or entity adapter). This adapter sets the flag to true, resets the main attribute to the value kept in the shadow attribute and kicks off the request. The entity adapter always checks the flag as the first step in the flow and if the flag is set the entity adapter does nothing.
This will trigger the event handler but as the two attributes now are identical nothing happens.
When the approval is done either the change is approved or denied.
In the case of approval the provisioning code sets the flag to false and writes the new value to the main attribute, next to the shadow attribute and finally sets the flag.
In case of denied you need to reset the flag to false. Not exactly sure if you can do this as part of the deny workflow or if you would have to create a scheduled task that does this.
A bit complex but should solve your problem.
Hope this helps

Peculiar attitude selecting a value from custom profile ...

Hi,
I have a very strange situation in which sometimes the selection of a row of the lov on the default form of the EBS 11.5.10.(setting profile values, sysadmin responsibility, profiles->system) is not accepted and the lov appears again suddenly...
More specifically, as application developer responsibility we have defined a custom profile(setting a sql query, so as the user->the sysadmin should select from a custom table of a custom application).
Afterwards, as sysdamin resp. , the user should select a value for the profile from the lov defined and setting it at the responsibility level.(default form : Profile->system).
Sometimes, but unfortunately the circumstances or the conditions are not reproducible, although the value the user desires and finds it in the lov, when selected the system does not accept it.... and the lov window re-appears ... the user selects it again and the lov appears again....and again...as the value selected from the lov is not valid....{but it is selected from the lov and there is no problem in the majority of cases....}
Does anybody have the slightest idea....a patch maybe...???
Note: I use EBS 11.5.10, DB 10g v.2
I hope , i have described the problem so as to be understandable....
Thank you,
Sim

Sim,
What is the client OS and browser? Can you reproduce the issue on multiple clients with different username?
Can you find any errors in application/database log files?
Can you reproduce the issue on a test (cloned) instance? If yes, I would suggest you enable debug and see if you can produce the issue and collect more details.
You may also enable debug on JRE/Jinitiator and see if any errors are logged (see Note: 549423.1 - How to enable tracing and logging for Sun JRE (Native Plug-in)).

Display custom hosts attributes in Internal Identity Store

Any one know how to Display custom attributes to the Internal Identity Store
I have created several attributes, but can't seem to find anyway to add them to the display window.
Cheers

They are displayed by default and there's no actual way to hide them.
Are you sure that you didn't create a customer HOST attribute and are looking in the internal user table or vice-versa ? Host and users have different custom attributes page. That's the only explanation I See

Oracle Receivables Customer Profile deletion

This customers custom program ( Apps 11.5.5) tries to update the Terms in a custom table by looking up Standard Terms ( joining AR_CUSTOMER_PROFILES and RA_CUSTOMERS; the custom table holds Customer Number).
This update fails with an ORA-01427 because for a few customers two Customer Profiles are found. Receivables allows setting up Customer Profiles at Site and Customer level.
So I need to change the update statement. Does someone have an example of a query-statement that first checks a Customer's Customer Profiles at Site-level and then ( if it doesn't exist) at Customer-level.
Cheers,

Dear Ivruksha,
In Oracle Payable we have Temporary Prepayment and Permanent Prepayment, Temporary Prepayment can be applied on Purchase Invoice but Permanent we can not apply on Purchase Invoices until unless we change the type from Permanent to Temporary.
In the same way My client is asking how to maintain these type of deposit when they receive from their Customer.
Scenario-01: Our Client receive Advance from his customer and He will adjust that amount on future sales - to support this we have Standard Deposit Transaction in AR
Scenario-02: Our client receives Advance from his Customer and he won't allow that payment to adjust on future sales transaction he wants to maintain that amount as Security Deposit & Use should not be able to adjust this Deposit amount on Sales Transaction as AP Permanent Prepayment.
Please help me how to provide solution to this requirement.

Custom Profile Popup

Hi,
I am trying to use Lightroom in conjunction with ImagePrint 7/Print Through Application. I'd like to be able to use my media profiles from inside Lightroom.
Per the online docs, I have copied the profiles to the /Library/ColorSync/Profiles directory, restarted Lightroom, and did not see all the profiles in the Custom Profile popup menu. I then copied the profiles to the /Users/~/Library/ColorSync/Profiles folder, restarted Lightroom, and still did not see all the profiles in the popup menu.
There are some profiles that appear in the popup menu. The ImagePrint profiles that do appear, as well as the profiles that do not appear all have .icm as the extension.
Is there an alternate location where these profile can be installed?
Thanks,
Rocky

Hi,
Yes, they have to be activated in the Mac version also, it's just that the files don't appear in the list of available profiles. This means that I do not have them in the correct location(s) or they are not being recognized by LR.
I have all my profiles I obtained for ImagePrint in the location I believe to be the proper directory, but only a handful of profiles appear in the menu, able to be selected. This is a pain, as I have to use color management "managed by printer" because I can't select them in LR.
Thanks,
Rocky
