Deleted user is back, is it possible?

I remember that I deleted a user from a group inside a sub site. After a while when I viewed users inside the group, I see that the user is back and he is there. Is it possible that removed user be back to a site or group? What do you do if you want to
do not share a site with a user any more? thanks and appreciate all kind of advice.

You verified that through auditing? Auditing is going to tell you who or what process added the user. Without that information, there isn't much we can do but guess.

  • Deleting Users in EBS r12.1.1   Is it possible?

    Hello everyone,
    I am a junior QA engineering that has been given the task to learn about EBS(E-Business Suite) r12.1.1. I am very new to EBS, and have never worked on any other ERP software.
    I would like to know if there is a way to delete users that I create. When I try to delete a user it doesn’t actually remove the user entry. It suspends/suspends the user.
    Is there a way to delete user accounts from the EBS user store/database?
    Thank you.
    Regards,
    Marc

    Hi,
    Applications users cannot be deleted since records belonging to users are kept for security and monitoring purposes (same applied for responsibilities). In addition, the user is recorded in Who columns, so deleting would cause foreign table data integrity issues.

  • Cannot delete users from the Central Management Console

    I cannot delete users from the Central Management Console.  I'm logged in to Enterprise as administrator but still get the following error:
    There was an error while writing data back to the server: Sorry, you do not have the right to 'Delete objects' (id - 22) for 'koberg' (id - 725415). Please contact your system or permissions administrator if you require this right.
    Thanks in advance for any help on this matter.

    Oops, my mistake, sorry. Ok, so the Administrator cannot delete user koberg.
    Check top level:
    Logon to CMC, browse to Home > Settings and select the Rights tab. These are your top level settings. Factory default will show only Administrators and Everyone. Select the Net Access "Advanced" for the Administrators group. NB: Do not select these group names links - they will jump you out of the top level! On the Advanced rights page, ensure the right to "Delete objects" is explicitly granted.
    Then set for the Users top level folder:
    In the CMC, browse to Home, and select Users. Select the "Rights" button. Again - NB: Do not select these group names links - they will jump you out of the Users top level folder! Set the Administrators group to "Full Control". Save.
    That should be all you need. However, there is a possibility the previous admin was busy setting security not only at the account level, but on groups so we need to verify the user:
    In the CMC, browse to Home, and select Users. In the User list, select koberg. In the koberg account page, select the Rights tab. If the Administrators is not set to (Inherited Rights), make it so, and when you select the "Update" button, you should see the Net Access update to "Full Control". If this is the case, you should follow these steps on each account and accomplish this.
    And if you still can't delete it, verify the groups:
    In the CMC, browse to Home, and select Users. In the User list, select koberg. In the koberg account page, select the "Member of" tab. Note all groups koberg is a member of. Then in the CMC, browse to Home, and select Groups. Select the name hyperlink for the group(s) that koberg belongs to. On the group page, select the Rights tab, and ensure the Administrators have (Inherited Rights) - Full Control on all of these, also. If not, set it.
    Finally, I know you inherited this, but let's overview some basics of simplifying your deployment administration. Follow these guidelines, and your administration life will be so much easier.
    1. The Everyone group should never have any subgroups. Ever. All accounts on the system are a member of the Everyone group. Adding subgroups to the Everyone group is redundant.
    2. For simplicity's sake, Application level access should be set on the Adminstrators Group, and the Everyone group. I know there are customers who add groups to application rights. I don't understand why users would have an account on the system if they are not allowed access to InfoView, but it's your system.
    3. From a report object perspective, the Everyone group should be set at the top level to "No Access". This will result in them having no rights on anything at all. You break this inheritance at the application level to give them access to InfoView and other apps. On folders and objects, you ADD groups, then assign (ADD) rights as desired.
    4. If you can help it, never explicitly deny a right to any user or group for any object or application. Explicitly deny overrides any other setting. If a user belongs to group A and group B, and group A is explicitly denied a right, you can explicitly grant it for group B or the user all day long, and it will still be denied. Always try to put yourself in the position of adding groups/users, and adding rights, then inheriting as far down the folder tree as you can.

  • Not Enough Hard Drive Space on my Mac Mini to Save Deleted User Account Folder: What to do?

    I am no longer able to access my original user account on my mac mini because the account is corrupted and won't load. Thanks to the helpful advice I found on the internet, I was able to create a new user account and resume using my mac, but all of my old files are trapped in the old user account.
    The plan was to delete the old user account, create a disk image of the old account folders, and then migrate those folders to the new user account. Unfortunately, I don't have enough disc space left on my Mac to do that. I have just under 11gb left after deleting absolutely everything I could, and I need 81gb for the old user files. The back up plan was to select the "don't change the home folder" option, but when I went to delete the account, there was no such option. The message simply read:
    "The user's home folder will not be saved. To do so, you need 81.1gb of free disk space. Try emptying the trash or deleting other files on your disk, then deleting the user account. If you do not want to save the user's home folder, click delete immediately."
    My only two choices were CANCEL or DELETE IMMEDIATELY. There was no "don't change the home folder" option.
    So I am not sure how to proceed. Here are some questions:
    1) is there a way to save the disk image directly to an external drive instead of the user's folder on the mac hard drive?
    2) If I use the "delete immediately" option, will the files go into a "deleted users" folder where they can be recovered or will they just be erased from the computer and unretrievable?
    3) Is there a way to use terminal to change access permission on the original user account files so that I can copy them onto an external drive or integrate them with the new user account without having to first delete the original user account?
    4) In the absence of deleting the user account, will using either:
    sudo chown -R `id -un` /Users/oldusername
    and/or
    sudo chmod -R u+rw /Users/oldusername
    in Terminal allow the new user account permission to access the original user files and merge them seamlessly into my new user account? Or must I delete the original account first?
    5) Is there something else I haven't thought of that would work, would be more efficient, or more effective? This wouldn't be the first time I have overthought a solution...
    When considering any solutions, please keep in mind that I cannot launch the original user account as that starts the whole endless loading loop. So, while I have the password for the original user account, any solution would appear to require that I work from the new user account only, without launching the old account.  Also I am a complete newbie at this. I've used Macs exclusively for 17 years but this is the first time I've had to do anything like this. Up to now, everything has always "just worked".  So please be as detailed with any instructions as possible!
    Any help greatly appreciated.  Thanks!
    Mac Mini 2ghz 1g ram running OS 10.4.11

    I think ComputerFixer is correct, you should be able to drag and drop it to another drive, no worries. However, if not, you could create an disk image of it using DiskUtility and create it on a new drive. But again, I don't think that is necessary. If you have administrator rights with your new account, can you simply go into the old user account folder and drag and drop the files you want to save? I have done that as well as copy the older user account to another drive (in my case, another computer on the network) and salgage my files from there. Is that an option for you?

  • Import mail from deleted user account

    I created a new administrator account on my mac mini and deleted the old one but chose to retain all of the user folders and files.
    I would like to go back and import mail messages from a pop mail account in the deleted user library, but can not navigate
    to the library when mail asks for the location of the files to import.  Is it possible to find those files?

    Never did find a solution to this. However because we are using IMAP accounts most of the mail was cached on the client Macs. So I offlined them, loaded Mail, copied all the mail into local mailboxes, recreated the users, went online and copied the mail back into the new hierarchy.
    Still can't believe I did such a daft thing!

  • Deleted User forlder reappears with TextHarvester.dat Microsoft file

    I deploy Win7 x64 Enterprise build, and before I run sysprep, I delete a folder from a deleted network login.  However, when the image is deployed on all the machines, that folder reappears.  That user should not exist on the machine.  When
    I go to User management, that username does not appear.  When I delete that Username folder, Windows recreates it.
    C:\Users\Username\AppData\Local\Microsoft\InputPersonalizaion\TextHarvester\TextHarvester.dat
    How can I prevent Windows 7 from creating that file and that folder structure?   Also, why is it being created, and where is that info stored?
    Thanks!

    This one stung me as well, and took ages to locate the problem.
    The issue is the Windows Search Service, which is actually recreating this folder on shutdown. To highlight this, delete the folders, then stop the search service and voila they come back again. I thought it might be a problem with the search index and under
    Control Panel, I rebuilt the index and once again these files from the deleted user profiles re-appeared.
    My solution was to uninstall the Windows Search feature, reboot and then reinstall it. Testing so far shows that the problem is not reoccuring.
    Why did it happen? In my case, possible because the Windows 7 image we are building has the User profiles moved to D:\Users, and in the unattend.xml this is done after the Search Service is installed, so perhaps the fault lies there. By default the
    Search Service is set to not index the AppData in the Users folder.
    Hope this helps others.
    This solution works great!
    Uninstalling Windows Search and the re-installing it solves the problem. :)

  • Cannot remove deleted user from people picker - SharePoint Foundation 2010

    So I think I've read all the people picker articles here and I can't find a solution so I thought I'd start a new thread. Here is the issue:
    A user was deleted from Active Directory and removed from SharePoint Foundation 2010. The user was still showing in the People Picker within the site collection, so we have performed a few things to try and get rid of this user.
    User is deleted from AD
    User is deleted from SharePoint Site Collection
    Have tried stsadm -o deleteuser
    Have removed all mention of this user from UserInfo table
    User does NOT show in
    https://<SiteCollectionURL/_layouts/people.aspx?MembershipGroupId=0
    Cannot find any mention of this user anywhere.
    Ran a full crawl as we read on a forum somewhere that it might help.
    If I try and add the user back to SharePoint I get "The user does not exist or is not unique"
    If I try "stsadm -o deleteuser -userlogin DOMAIN\USER -url https://<sitecollectionurl>" I get "The user does not exist or is not unique"
    I am not sure what else I can try now. Can anyone help?
    Thanks,
    Vinny
    Vinny

    No other domain trusts that this user could be in.
    Just so everyone can stop with the warnings, we do NOT regularly delete users from the UserInfo table and fully are aware of the problems behind it, which is why it is so rarely done. But at times, you have to do what you have to do to help a customer, you
    know? This one user is the only one that was removed from the UserInfo table, but there are a few other users that are also deleted (from SharePoint, not manually from UserInfo) that are still showing as well. This one user included.
    There MUST be another place that the people picker gets it's information from. ALL of the user's old information still shows in the people picker (username, email address, display name), and yet none of that information exists anywhere other than in the
    People Picker. Mailbox is gone from Exchange, User deleted from SharePoint, User deleted from Active Directory. Is there no cache someone could point me towards that People Picker might store information in.

  • Deleted User recovery  in SAP R/3

    Hi :
    By mistakenly I have deleted user from the user list . After some time i came to know that , that user is productive user.
    Can any one help me for how to recover the user from deleted list.
    Thanks
    Chimsi

    Hi,
    I do not think that will be possible. You can recreate the same user-id though, and he/she shall be able to carry on (get the workflow items, inbox, transport requests and so on, of the earlier user-id).
    It maybe possible to search CDHDR and CDPOS tables to get some details of user deletion.
    cheers,

  • New Macbook Air setup problem with deleting user account

    I recently changed from a MBP to a MBA and upon completing my migration data from old mac to new one I had an extra user account. So I have my admin account and a guest account and a third account that I don't want. Upon trying to delete this account it show "deleting user account and home folder" but it has been doing this for more than an hour therefore it will not let me exit system preferences. Any help on this?

    I'm not sure I understand what you mean by "need configuration data ... " However, if both computers are on your network then you should be able to synchronize various files or folders using backup software. However, to start you will need to enable File Sharing on one of the computers.
    For help with this select Mac Help from the Finder's Help menu. Search for "file sharing." You should find several links on how to configure it on your computer. Also see Mac 101- File sharing and Tutorial- File sharing in OS X - MacFixIt.
    Once file sharing is set up you can then try a backup utility to do the synching. Most backup utilities not only do backups but can also be configured to synchronize files and/or folders. Here are some possibilities:
    Backup Software Recommendations
    1. Synchronize! Pro X (Commercial)
    2. Synk (Backup, Standard, or Pro)

  • URGENT! I need help on LDAP - Finding deleted users Attribute "sAMAccount"

  • Delete user's groups from OID

    Hello,
    I did have a problem when I did delete user from OIM, this user didn't get deleted from OID. I solved this by adding this to the undo task for Create User in OID User PD. However, one additional problem remains - users group memberships doesn't get removed when user is deleted from OIM. From the log file I can see:
    DEBUG,19 Jun 2009 13:10:01,405,[XL_INTG.OID],OID:tcUtilLDAPOperations -> Parameter Variables passed are: pSearchBase = [cn=external,cn=users,dc=def,dc=star,dc=co,dc=us], pFilterExpression = [cn=cn=GROUPNAME,cn=XX,cn=Groups], pIsRelative = [false], pAttrNames = [null]
    DEBUG,19 Jun 2009 13:10:01,408,[XL_INTG.OID],tcUtilOIDUserOperations -> Returning with code:USER_DOESNOT_EXIST
    I think the problem is with pSearchBase -field values. Groups are not located in that LDAP-path and that's why it's returning USER_DOESNOT_EXIST. How I can tell to OIM where to look?
    Thanks!
    Or, maybe the problem is with "cn=cn=GROUPNAME". If so, where that extra "cn=" is coming from...?

    EDIT: didn't realize this was for CR.. my post was for boe.
    Hey Bernard,
    Here's what I do:
    select SI_NAME, SI_USERGROUPS from CI_SYSTEMOBJECTS where SI_NAME = 'xyz' and SI_PROGID = 'CrystalEnterprise.User'
    This will bring back the group ID's that user xyz is a member of.  The groups are in a nested property of SI_USERGROUPS, which I don't think you can query directly.  Once you have the ID's, however,  you can run another query to find out what the group names are.  Say the first query brought back three results, 123, 456 and 789.  Then you'd run:
    select SI_NAME from CI_SYSTEMOBJECTS where SI_ID = '123' or SI_ID = '456' or SI_ID = '789'
    Perhaps you could write some logic to parse the group ID's out of the first query and put them into the second query's where clause.

  • Cannot print PO created by deleted User ID

    Hi Gurus,
    May i know if there's a way how to print a PO if the User ID create the PO already deleted because he/she leave in the organization?
    We change the PO created by the deleted User ID and after that we can't print the PO, please suggest possible solution to this case.
    Thanks
    Marina

    Hi Marina,
    It seems that your print program calls/accesses information for the user who created the purchase order. I am assuming that your PO contains purchaser specific information such as his name, contact numbers, etc. Now, since you mentioned that the user id has already been deleted, then whenever the print program is called and tries to check the PO creator, it will see no data.
    If I may suggest, copy the old purchase order using the user id of a currently existing employee. I am assuming that since this user already exists, then the print program can successfully access the needed address information. Kindly check if this is allowed by your business polices.
    Best regards,
    DeLo

  • What is the best way to automatically delete user profiles after x days of inactivity (school lab environment)?

    I work at a school where we have multiple Mac Carts that have 30 MacBooks per cart. We image the macs every summer to delete the older user profiles but we are looking for way to possible have this done automatically through out the year to help with HDD space. What is the best way to delete user profiles after...say 180 days.... of inactivity automatically? I am open to login hooks, bash scripts, etc. Anything to get the job done. Thanks for any help or advice.

    A search here turned up this post Deleting inactive users
    It appears that the script posted will do as advertised though I would test it out on your systems and under your conditions to see if it does do what you need.

  • How to delete users in CMC BO integrated with SAP BW

    hello experts,
    i am using bo 4.1 , i want to delete users in CMC which is integrated with SAP BW role import.
    i am deleting manually but after BW connection refresh again users is coming in to CMC.
    please tell me any alternate way to delete users
    thanks,
    naresh.

    Hi,
    You cannot delete the users if they are integrated with SAP BW role import.
    However if you remove all the roles that the users is/are member of then the user will be removed automatically in next update but by doing so it will remove all other users part of those groups that you are not interested in also.
    may i know why are you looking to delete users ?
    If you delete manually then all the personal folders will be vanished and even if your user comes back in the next update you will not be able to recover the personal folders.
    Thanks,
    Tanveer.
