Digital Personal File (DPF)

Hi all,
We would like to take DPF into use independantly from Processes and Forms etc. Just a simple setup were its possible to archive documents in a record model via ORGANIZER and the SAP portal.
Right now I am getting to know DPF by using the RMS_ID "S_RMS_DEMO".
I would like to create a DPF record for a specific employee which I have hired in the system. I tried to create a new record but I do not seem to be able to "link" the new record to my employee.
1. Can anyone explain to my who I can link a DPF record to an employee?
2. How do I make sure that when I create a DPF record for an employee, it will be created for the correct Record Model?
(Is that specified in the Element type for the Record?)
Thanks in advance, your comments are very much appreciated.
Best Regards
Jenzen

Hi again,
Here is an additional question for ya.
When implementing DPF - how would one convert / mass upload documents for each employee record?
Thanks a lot!

Roadmap of Records Management (RM) & Digital Personnel File (DPF)

DPF (Digital Personnel File) is SAP standard solution to archiving of process forms and attachments at the end of HCM processes (created by HCM Processes and Forms Framework).
I read that until 2012 Record Management (upon which DPF is built) was SAP Certified solution to Content Management System (ECM). On 2012 SAP changed Records Management name to Folders Management and branded this tool with its new name, implying that RM is no longer SAP Certified Solution to content management.
So my question is: What is SAP current Roadmap of RM in general and DPF spcifically? and what is SAP current Certified solution to this issue?

Thanks alot for your reply.
May be not the exact comparison, but atleast I could make out what are the added advantages using opentext.
DPF from HCM P&F also provides a folder structure irrespective of infotypes , but not all the listed features from opentext could be met.
Basically DPF is a wrapper on top of RM and it is also connected to Archive . So definitely opentext is way further to go.

Regarding Digital Personal file

HI Gurus,
On our ECC 6 on EhP3 and NetWeaver 7.0 running portal, we're trying to configure part of the Business Package for HR administrator (the one in EhP1 that uses WD for ABAP). We want to start by using DPF for storage of employees Certificates, Contracts etc. We're not using Adobe Interactive Forms yet, but that may follow in the future.
I've read that one can configure DPF for archived documents, but what little information I could glean from help.sap.com haven't helped me with the practical usage.
I've done configuring in the IMG for DPF, transaction SICF and in NetWeaver for the HR Administrator role to use the demo-DPF (for a demo only, ofcorse), but when I try to use the asr_personnel_file application (Edit Personnel File) from the HR Administrator portal role, I always get an error saying that the employee doesn't have a personnel file.
Does anyone know how I can create a personnel file for an employee? are there elements I've forgotten? do I for example need to configure ArchiveLink or something?
Cheers,
Rahul

Hi,
Maybe the solution will help somone.
After configuring DPF in IMG, you have to:
1. Generate DPF using transaction PASR_DPF_CREATE - it creates the record for documents.
2. Now you can access the employee DPF either from the system (tcode ORGANIZER or directly HRASR_CALL_TX_PDPF ) or from the portal.

Norbert

Digital personnel file configuration

Dear experts,
First of all... Wishing a very happy new year.
I am new to HCM and Digital personnel files. Now actually I need to configure digital personnel file for HR personnel records, I had small experience in SAP Records management. I did some basic configurations for DPF, Now I want to check personnel records(DPF), but I dont understand how to check or where to check it. Actually I checked it in PA30, but could not find how to navigate to DPF. Also I would appreciate if somebody shares a step by step configuration guide for DPF config. I got idea of creation of records models etc... I am looking for your quick replies. Thanks a lot in advance.
Best Regards,
CSY.

hi
you can refer to the link below.
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_afs64/helpdata/ja/43/866b57ec875965e10000000a422035/content.htm
Also for the DPF to work , as per the documentation you need to set up a single record model , you can check out the tcode organizer , but pre-requsite to that is the records management must be present in your system , you can take help of any basis person to check the same.

Personal file sharing has problems...

I have a very plain, basic network here at home. I have a 8 port switch that connects all of my computers to my network. These include several that are connected wirelessly (2 ibooks, MacBook, PowerBook) and 2 wired connections in a Mac Pro and a Digital Audio 466 Power Mac. All are running 10.4.8. Until just recently I have been able to file share between all computers without problems. Now I cannot connect to or from the Power Mac through any file sharing. The Power Mac has no problems accessing the internet nor do I problems observing the PowerMac with Apple Remote Desktop.
I have checked all network/sharing settings and can't seem to find anything out of the ordinary.
Any ideas?
Paxx

Hi,
In System Preferences/Sharing, has the "Personal
File Sharing" checkbox been un-checked? Or has a
firewall been turned on on the PowerMac ?
Are there any errors in system.log in
/var/log ?
Also, are there any errors posted in
AppleFileServiceError.log in
/Library/Log/AppleFileService ?

Ed, thanks for the suggestions I will have a look tomorrow. System prefs I know are right but didn't think to see if there has been a firewall or errors posted in the logs. thanks for the suggestions.

Pavilion dv8t 1200 - simple pass/digital persona software won't install

Howdy,
Windows 7 Home Premimum 64 bit
Intel Core i7 Q720 @1.60GHz
Pavilion dv8t - 1200 Notebook PC
The reader worked fine for the first few months/year, however it then only started working for signing in & occasionaly for sites & gTalk. I was cool with that...annoyed, but cool. Oh, it also didn't work to sign in if I had to sign in again after the screen saver came up or if the machine went into hybernate.
Today I decided to see if there was an update or if I could get it working for something other than signing in. After installing what was most likely the wrong package, I uninstalled it through the Program Manager.
I then shut down the machine, ran CCleaner (there were digital persona errors removed...about 8) & went to install sp50048 which I believe is the correct one for my machine.
During the install it tells me the folder/files already exist, (even though I uninstalled it) & ithey do, then at the instal phase "Registering Modules" I receive the following error:
Error 1722
InstallDPPassFilter_x64.4D0EAAF1_2D33_4FFF_AA08_6...
And then in rolls it back.
I turned off the biometric devices in the control panel, ran CCleaner again, shut the machine down completely, tried installing again & had the same issue.
I turned the biometrics on in the control panel & recieve this message:
"Biometric devices are turned on, however I'm told “Windows did not find any biometric devices on this computer. You might need to attach your device or install device drivers.”
I have tried a few methods from 'solved' under both simple pass & digital persona
Thank you all for reading & attempting to help.

Howdy,
Thank you for your advice, however it did not work out.
Addressing each point in succession:
I can not get Digital Persona to install, therefore I can not interact with it hence none of the steps in the Setup and Use HP SimplePass Fingerprint Reader were available to moi.
Troubleshoot a Fingerprint Reader did not solve the issue, however I did go through the steps there so I shall describe my results in an effort to see if it helps home in on the problem.
All files used to update were pulled from the hp.com site using my Product Number.
Update the BIOS - BIOS was up to date
Enable Biometric Support (in BIOS) - Following the instructions it appears mine is always in the state: Enable
Check for Windows Support - Validity Sensor appears under Biometric Devices in the Device Manager
Update the Device Driver - (Had deleted the driver previously, so installed & updated) - Updated/Installed
Update the Access Manager - Attempted to install Digital Persona 5.1.0.175 A, but again during the install it gave me the same error (as my original post describes) & did not install.
As a final note, Windows does not see the reader in the Control Panel (large icons) Biometric devices even though it is turned on.
The reader worked fine before I tried to update it to a newer version & I still believe I installed an incorrect version of the Simple Pass software.

Digital personnel file

I am implementing SAP record management currently for setting up a digital personnel file using the standard service providers ASR...... from SAP.
We have defined multiple roles (e.g employee and HR advisor). With the record model and authorizion roles I am able to give the correct authorization to both individual roles. Which means that every role is able to view or add the documents using individual element types.
The problem I am facing is that if an user has both roles how can I prevent e.g. the HR advisor of viewing the wrong documents of a person. The requirement is that a HR advisor is only able to view the documents of a person based on his advisor role, except his own file.
Hope anyone can help out.
Kind regards
Johan

Hi,
One is Category and another one is Anchor. It is different configuration but it tie togehter. It is the terminology in Record Management System. I also looking to create new Anchor and put it in the standard one. But I still can not find how to do that. Please let me know if anyone can find how to link between new Anchor and RMS ID.
For your case, the problem is cannot assign to any folder or can assign but want to have new folder same as my case?

Fingerprint reader (Digital Persona 4500)

Anybody have an example of Digital Persona 4500 implemented in LV? SDK comes with DLLs and .h's but I can't seem to make them work using library calls or import DLL. Combination of mediocre C skills, confusion about datatype mapping in call library (matching LV data types to header prototpes), and poor SDK documentation.
If not 4500, anything implement a DigitalPersona product would be helpful / appreciated.

Hi Zwired1,
Since you have the header file for the DLL in question, you should be able to use the Import Library Wizard to automatically import and create LabVIEW wrappers for your DLL function calls (Tools>>Import >>Shared Library). This should take care of most of the call library function node configuration automatically. I've seen a few cases where the import wizard can't parse all functions if they're not exported properly, use oddly-nested or complicated data types, or header macros, but most of the time it works like a charm.
If that's failing (which might be the case, your post's a little vague), what errors are you running into?
Regards,
Tom L.

Is there a solution for Digital Persona and Windows 10 and Edge or Google

I upgarded to windows 10 and now my digital persona does not work. Is there a solution for Microsoft Edge? If not is there a solution for google? I can make google my defult browser but it does not work there either?

We upgraded one laptop at home and I wasn't very surprised to find out that the backup / imaging program we were using on Windows 7 (Backup Exec System Recovery) stopped working. It's a nice program that I've been using for years - creates a base image then incrementals on a schedule. Allows for simple full bare metal recovery or for file recovery by mounting an image inside the program.
Have any of you tested anything similar in Windows 10?

Personal File Sharing

I have a small office network setup with 8 macs. I'm currently using personal file sharing within the network. Sometimes I can not tell who is connected to which machine at any given time.
When I go to shut my machine down, I'll get the message "There are X users connected using apple file sharing. Are you sure you want to shut down?"
#1 How can I tell who is connected?
#2 Is there a way that I can force them to disconnect from my machine?
Thanks

No need to "install" Sharepoints, you just run it once to set the type of logging you want in it's AFS Properties, then you use AFS Monitor to easily check the Logs to see who is or has been doing what.
No need to change Sharing with Sharepoints unless you want to finely tune your sharing.

How do I use the back-up discs I created before restoring, to recover my personal files, etc.??

I own a Compaq Presario CQ56 109WM Notebook PC that I recently ran System Recovery on to restore it to the "Out-Of-Box State," due to a virus or crash or something that would no longer allow the computer to boot to Windows. Beforehand I backed up my personal files, pics, music, preferences, etc. on a set of 5 DVD+R discs. Now the computer seems to be running fine to my knowledge, however I have no idea how to use these discs. When I finally got them to read in my disc drive, I found a .exe file on the first disc for the Recovery Manager, which I opened obviously, and it was supposed to create a folder on my desktop and open all my stuff. However while doing the first disc I got like an error message that said "Recovery Manager could not restore the file 10.wim. Do you want to continue?" I clicked yes, and it gave me the same message for files 11-19.wim, 2.wim, and 20-27.wim. I have no idea what this all means. Also after it was done, I do have a folder on my desktop, which has 3 other folders inside, and inside of those is a ton of other crazy folders and files, which I'm sure my stuff is in SOMEWHERE but the question is, HOW DO I ACCESS AND RESTORE IT ALL TO WHERE AND HOW IT WAS??? LOL PLEASE HELP!!
This question was solved.

HP Backup backs up many folders that are useless, most of your personal files should be in a folder with your old user name in the "Users" folder. This Backup app is also known to be a pain.
As for why you got the error, which sounds like all files were not extracted, that could be a faulty DVD, something caused a bad write to DVD,etc.
If you don't see a 'Users' folder, I would probably start by deleting the folder created on Desktop and make a new one either on desktop or in My Documents. Next copy files from each DVD to that new folder. From the folder try running the .EXE file again to see if any better results.
One other suggestion-go into Control Panel, Folder Options and check to be sure 'Hidden files' are shown.
If all else fails, install 7Zip and try it to extract the .WIM files.

Problem with "Personal File Sharing"

Apple Support
"Personal File Sharing" does not work in my Powerbook G4 17 inch with 1.67 ghz CPU and with 1 gb ram.
There is long delay, if I turn on the "Sharing" dialogue box.
When it works shortly, I click the "Personal File Sharing" option.
Then there is long delay again, then "Windows Sharing" is automatically selected without any change.
"Personal File Sharing" is always off.
When I click the other options while this short moment, they can be turned on and off.
Only "Personal File Sharing" does not work!
And my Laptop can not be seen in other OS X.
How can I find the reason and how can I solve this problem?
What I can suppose is only the installation of Server Assistent.
Can it be a problem?
Sincerely yours

This may or may not help you, but doing so has helped numerous other users in other forums here (iChat, Mail, Print&Fax, etc.) that have reported crappy performance problems of one sort or another.
Download the OS 10.4.10 COMBO update for Intel (for ktom) or PPC (for prko).
Close all services and ports in Sys Prefs Sharing. Run Disk Utility and verify your boot drive. Then repair permissions. Reapply the combo update. Repair permissions again. Reopen desired services and ports in Sys Prefs Sharing. Reboot. Post back and let us know if that helped or not.

What is the best way to keep my personal files stored in iCloud separate from my work-related files?

What is the best way to keep my personal files stored in iCloud separate from my work-related files? It seems that I'm not allowed to link my iPad mini and my work iMac using two different accounts, so I'm wondering how to make my single personal account work for both, while keeping personal vs work files reasonably separated.
Thanks for any suggestions.

Is it possible for you to upgrade your account to iCloud Drive? That would mean, all Macs upgraded to Yosemite, and all mobile devices to iOS8?
See: iCloud Drive FAQ and iCloud: About using iWork for iOS and iCloud
In iCloud Drive you could create two separate custom folders, one for work documents and one for private documents and organize your documents there. Don't use the app specific folders (Keynote, Pages, Numbers, ...) , because you can only create one level of folders inside these folders.

Personal file sharing, ok to leave on please?

hey guys!
just wanted to check what some other mac users do re personal file sharing!
i have an imac G5 and a macbook (intel core 2 duo) and i turned on file sharing for both systems, firewall is on and it works great!
both the question is, is says other mac users can access my files, when i access them i input a password so others will be asked the same right?
firewall is on stealth mode so this should be safe, right?

Mine is on all the time and, like you I have two machines, so one thing I use it for is to transfer data.
To get into the second machine needs username and password and if you are behind a firewall and a router, there is very low possibility for them to see your Macs. On the same system, perhaps they can be seen, but getting in needs those passwords and usernames.
Make sure your passwords are strong, of course.
