Customs Attributes in Address List

Hi,
I would like to create an Address list with data from Custom attributes. We have entered details such as Name, Designation, etc. in Arabic character in those custom attributes and would like to have an address list in Arabic. Any suggestion would be appreciated.

Hi,
Do you mean you want to create an address list for users whose Custom Attributes(Name, Designation etc.) are Arabic characters?
We can configure these users with another Custom Attribute 15 value to Arabic, then use the following command to filter these users to an address list:
New-AddressList -Name "Arabic" -RecipientFilter {(RecipientType -eq 'UserMailbox') -and (CustomAttribute15 –like Arabic)}

Help required in additing custom attribute to Item list view

Hi Experts,
I need to add custom attribute(defined in Customer_i) to BTADMIN_I (list type) context node. I have tried adding the attribute using the 'Create Attribute' wizard in the work bench making use of the BOL Model relationship. The attribute is added but it is always display only. Could any one guide me in resolving the issue?
I am using the component ICCMP_BTITEM & view Itemlist.
Thanks & Regards,

Hello Rajkumar, i h ave the same problem , with other attribute that i have created with the wizard. but the problem is that this attribute always is only display. Did you resolve the problem?

Dynamic select list as APEX plug-in custom attribute?

I'm developing a region plug-in in APEX 4.0.1. I wanted to make one of the custom attributes a select list where the options offered were the current application list templates (queried from the <tt>apex_application_temp_list</tt> view: the rendered plug-in region should be styled using a standard list template from the current theme). However, the Select List plug-in custom attribute type only appears to support static lists. Can anyone confirm that I've not missed anything and that this is indeed the case?
If so, it seems that the plug-in will have to rely on developers typing a list template name into a text box, which is far from ideal. (Unless anyone can suggest a workaround?)
Component specific templates can be applied to several built-in component types—lists, calendars, reports—so it would make sense for there to be a similar capability for plug-ins where these are congruent with an existing template type, e.g. by providing a Template Picker plug-in custom attribute type.

Hi,
you have not missed anything. Plug-in attributes of type "Select List" just support static values. And I'm not sure if a query based Select List would really help, because what happens if the template is deleted. Or in the reports where it shows if the template is in use.
So I think your second approach to extend plug-in attributes to link to certain shared components (Lists, Templates) is the better way forward, because that will also allow us to know what you are actually referencing and we can use that information in reports, delete operations, ...
Will add it to possible enhancements for 4.1

Custom attributes added to user objects not visible in OWA address book

Hi,
I am using Exchange 2013 and recently added a new custom attribute in the user object properties using the details template editor to be visible in the GAL The new attribute is correctly getting displayed in the GAL from outlook clients but not visible
in OWA address book. Is there a way to update the display of user objects in OWA address book to include the new custom attribute?
Thanks!

Hi Abu,
Please see following link:
Customize Details Templates
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms.exch.toolbox.detailstemplate(v=exchg.150).aspx
It says, Use the Details Templates Editor to customize the client-side graphical user interface (GUI) presentation of object properties that are accessed by using address lists in Microsoft Outlook.
My understanding is this setting only visible in Outlook.
Please correct me if there is any misunderstanding.
Thanks

Updating Global Address Lists and its corresponding attributes

What do these attributes have to do with the updating of global address lists?
1.msExchAddressBookFlags
2.msExchModerationFlags
3.msExchProvisioningFlags
and what exactly happens with showInAddressBook when hide from address lists are selected or unselected??

Hi,
1. MSExchAddressBookFlags attribute is a flag about the default address list to display for Outlook users address lists. When the value is set to 0, the user would set Contacts as the default address list, when the user opens Address Book, it firstly displays
user’s Contact.
2. MsExchModerationFlags attribute on the Distribution Group indicates if sending the auto approval to senders.
3. About the msExchProvisioningFlags attribute, there is no official article explaining it. Your understanding will be appreciated.
Hope this can be helpful to you.
Best regards,

Adress list custom attribut user in multiple group

Hello,
I am trying to configure some distribution group in exchange 2007
I wanted to have list based on my OU but i cant find how so i went with custom attribut
I put my member in the correct service BUT i have the manager that need to be on all the group and some user in2 or 3 group.
I cant figure how and where to do this!
Can you help?

So you're trying to use Dynamic Distribution Groups?
If you're creating the DDG using the Exchange Management Console just be sure to select the "recipient container" in the second dialog box (the one labeled "Filter Settings").
Sometimes its easier to create a "normal" static distribution group and then add the DDGs as members. You can add the DDG that selects the managers to as many different groups as you like. You may wind up with more groups, be the filter on the DDGs will
be much easier to understand (or to create if you must use Powershell to construct the DDG).

Query Custom Attribute List of Values

Hey All,
Is there a way I can get the list of values from a 'list' or 'radio button' custom attribute. Even if it's the string with | seperators, I can parse it out. Any help would be appreciated.

Hi Jasper,
Based on your role, you can get the value of a custom attribute in IRPT page.
You can use "Applet.getPropertyValue(AttributeName)" method to get the value.
But, I am not sure - how to get all the possible values of a custom attribute and display in a drop down.
The possible solutions would be
1. Use some external XML properties file and fetch the values from these files.
2. Use small table in a database & fetch these values or
3, If the values are small in numbers, you can hard code these values.

Custom Address List - Email Header in IC Web Client

Hello,
I wanted to check if there is a possibility to provide users
with a custom address list wherein we can have our own set of email addresses
to choose from for sending the email through SAP CRM.
Currently I am aware that three types of address lists
mentioned below are possible.
CRM Addresses ( BP Address)
MS Outlook
Lotus Notes
The requirement came up, as my customer’s call center
employees do not have official email ids & hence outlook or lotus notes
integration is not possible. Every time
if they want to send an email to any internal employee through SAP CRM, they
have to manually enter email ids which they find it bit uncomfortable.
Any guidance will be appreciated.
Regards, Mathy

Hi Ragav,
Creating a DL will not suffice the requirement here. Recipient IDs are not always the same.

Hide Custom Address List from GAL Exchange 2010 SP2

So, here is the scenario.
I have a list of contacts that I only want 12 users to be able to see. I have read up on the Address Book Policies, however, what I am REALLY wanting to do is to create an address list of the contacts, and hide THAT from the gal. I could then
create a new GAL/Address Book Policy that includes the new address list of contacts, and essentially make the GAL + Contacts address list visible to that group of 12.
Is this possible? It seems silly to apply a new Address Book Policy to 3000 users, would rather apply a new policy to the 12 users that need to see the contact info

New Address List in Exchange 2013, with EMS Multi tenant with emaildomain

HI I want to create a Addresslist in Exchange Online using the filter with specific with each domain by using the email address as
*@xyz.com , since my present scenario is I have two domains and all the recipients are fully populated in the Default GAL.
Br

Hi,
You may implement the address book segregation by the following ways: The method uses the Custom Attribute set for the iusers
1. Create Address List for Organization 1
New-AddressList -name “Organization 1” -RecipientFilter {(CustomAttribute1 -eq “Org 1 Member”)} -DisplayName “Organization 1 List”
2. Create Global Address List for the Organization 1
New-GlobalAddressList -name “GAL_Organization 1” -RecipientFilter {(CustomAttribute1 -eq “Org 1 Member”)}
3. Create corresponding Offline Address List
New-OfflineAddressBook -name “OAB_Organization1” -AddressLists “GAL_Organization1”
4. Create an Address Book Policy for Org 1
New-AddressBookPolicy -name “ABP_Org1” -AddressLists “Organization 1” -OfflineAddressBook “OAB_Organization1” -GlobalAddressList “GAL_Organization 1”
5. Assign the ABP to the Org 1 Users
Get-Mailbox -resultsize unlimited | where {$_.CustomAttribute1 -eq “Org 1 Member”} | Set-Mailbox -AddressBookPolicy “ABP_Org1”
Mailboxes that have 'Org1 Member' as the value of the CustomAttribute1, will only see Other members of their Organization.

PowerShell Scripting Question Exchange Address Lists -eq

I am trying to set a Global Address List using Powershell. When it executes, the output does not change $custom to the actual value. It keeps '$custom'. What am I doing wrong?
This is my code:
$company = "test"
$custom = read-host "Enter custom attribute"
New-GlobalAddressList -Name "$company GAL" -RecipientFilter {(CustomAttribute15 -eq "$custom")}
I also tried:
New-GlobalAddressList -Name "$company GAL" -RecipientFilter {(CustomAttribute15 -eq $($custom))}

Hi Mike,
Try to modify the custom attribute using adsiedit
Start ADSI Edit.
In the All Global Address Lists container, locate the newly created Address List.
Open the properties of the Address List object.
In the select a property to view list, click purportedsearch .
Enter the LDAP query that you want to process, and then set that value.
Click OK , and then force replication and see.
Try to set this custom attribute for single user and check if it works for single user
Get-mailbox -Organizationalunit "users OU" | set-mailbox customattribute1 "$company GAL"
Bounce the Microsoft File Distribution service and see if it does not reflect.

Upgrade Default Address Lists from LDAP

Hello,
I migrated from MS Exchange 2003 to 2010 some time back. Currently trying to upgrade the address lists as per the guide here:
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dd351283.aspx
When I run
Set-GlobalAddressList "Default Global Address List" -RecipientFilter {(Alias -ne $null -and (ObjectClass -eq 'user' -or ObjectClass -eq 'contact' -or ObjectClass -eq 'msExchSystemMailbox' -or ObjectClass -eq 'msExchDynamicDistributionList' -or ObjectClass -eq 'group' -or ObjectClass -eq 'publicFolder'))}I get the following error:what should I do? Thanks.

Hi Birenc,
the default Global Address List can be modified during the conversion from Exchange 2003. You won't be able to do it after that hence the error message.
1- Run Get-GlobalAdressList | fl and check the IsDefaultGlobalAddressList value. I believe in your case this would be False.
2- To change this you would need to change the msExchRecipientFilterFlags attribute. you can do this via ADSIEDIT. Open ADSIEDIT connect to the Configuration container. Find the Default Global Address List and change the above attribute value from 3 to
0 and apply the changes. Then change it back to 3 and apply changes.
3- Run GlobalAdressList | fl again and the IsDefaultGlobalAddressList value should now be true.
This should fix your issue.

Issue with Sorting by Custom Attributes

In our custom SES query application, I am trying to implement sorting at the custom attribute level. I am having difficulty in understanding exactly how to set the options on doOracleOrganizedSearch() to achieve the desired result.
We have a table based content source and allow a user to search via custom search attribute. We are also going to allow them to sort by custom attribute.
For example, say we have a Project content source and one of the attributes is "Client Name". Users are going to be able to sort by client name (A-Z and Z-A). I have a prototype working but it only seems to work if I set topN to a very high number.
I want to bring back the first 10 documents sorted by Client Name A - Z and allowing paging to the next set of sorted results. My prototype works if I set topN to 1000 (more than the # of results) but does not work if I set it to 10 (# of results I want to display per page).
Below if my code. Note I am not setting the group attribute or the cluster list. Perhaps this is the issue?
Many thanks in advance!
OracleResultContainer results = service.doOracleOrganizedSearch
(this.m_query, // query
this.m_docsRequested, // topN
this.m_startIndex, // startIndex
new Integer(10), // docsRequested
this.m_dupRemoved, // dupRemoved
this.m_dupMarked, // dupMarked
this.m_searchDataGroup, // groups
this.m_queryLang, // queryLang
this.m_docLang, // docLang
this.m_returnCount, // returnCount
this.m_filterConnector, // filterConnector
filters, // filters
this.m_fetchAttributeNames, // fetchAttributeNames
null, // searchControls
null, // groupAttr
this.m_sortAttributes, // sortAttrList
null); // clusterList

Hi Nikola,
in 9.0.1 even if you rewrite the web interface you can't sort files by custom attributes setting a SortSpecification to a Folder. You can only sort by base attributes with getItems(). To get item sorted on custom attributes you must perform a search (a lot more codelines).

The name cannot be matched to a name in the Address List

Hi,
I checked several posts but no luck.
Problem: We currently have Exchange 2010 and 2003 co-existence, busy migrating to 2010. We have several domains as well. A problem came up in one of our remote access domain where we have Citrix running. After the user has been moved to the new 2010 server
and you re-create their mail profile in Outlook 2010 then it will give the following error:
The name cannot be resolved. The name cannot be matched to a name in the address list.
A popup box appears with the server name exch2010cas.domain.local and the mailbox field =SMTP:[email protected] When you click on Check Name the error keeps popping up. When I change the server to exch2003.domain.local though and click Check Name the
mailbox gets underlined and the servername changes back to exch2010cas.domain.local in the exchange server textbox.
I'm pretty sure it must be an AD or DNS problem somewhere but I'm not sure where? I did add some domain suffixes to the new Exchange server so it can resolve hostnames in the local and remote domain. I also looked at the GAL and the entries for the user
is in there. I'm not sure if it might have something to do with LegacyExchangeDN value either?
I appreciate any help, thanks.

Hi,
I recommend the following troubleshooting:
1.Verify that the Active Directory account that you use either to create the client profile or to log on to the mailbox has been mailbox-enabled.
2.Verify that the user can use the Active Directory account to view sibling objects in the Users container (or in the Active Directory organizational unit that contains the user account).
3.Verify that the user account has been stamped by the Recipient Update Service after you mailbox-enable the user account.
4.Verify that the user can see both the Global Address List objects that are listed in the
showInAddressBook attribute and the members of the Global Address List using Ldp.exe
5.Log on as an administrator, and then verify that there are no duplicates in the
addressBookRoots attribute of the Microsoft Exchange object under <var>Domain</var>,cn=Configuration,cn=Services

'Other Address List' not showing in Address Book

I'm trying to create an customized address list that will appear in the address book. I've placed the contacts into a contacts folder, and placed this contacts folder into a .pst file. This way, I can distribute this .pst file for others to use the same
address list.
I'm aware that I have to tick 'Show this folder as an e-mail Address Book', under the properties of the contact folder.
This address book does show up under 'Other Address List' -> name of the address book, when we look at the address book drop down list. This is when I only have 1 email account under the same Outlook profile.
When I have more than 1 email account under the same Outlook profile, this address list shows itself under the 2nd email account, and not 'Other Address List'.
Is this by design or could it be a bug? Is there a way to fix this / any workarounds? Thank you!
FYI I am waiting for verification of my account as I can't post pictures or links. I've already completed verification by clicking the link. Maybe there's a delay somewhere.
Update : images uploaded.

Hi,
I tested this issue and I can reproduce it in my environment. However, as far as I know, this behavior won't affect the usage of the address book.
I searched the internal resource but I cannot find a bug report regarding this issue. If you have any suggestion about this issue, you can submit a feedback via:
