Edit own extended user details

I have implemented the "How To Extend User Details" guide.
Now I need to give the users an Iview to edit these new fields. The Personalize -> User Profile just isn't doing it for me.
How do I create an iView that lets the user maintain these fields?

Hi Robert,
The way I have been thinking of doing it is using property structures to represent a resource representing the user in /ume/users to the user to edit and save.
This is similar to your solution in your presentation "Creating Contact Lists..." where you use the com.sapportals.wcm.rendering.uicommand.cm.UIPropertiesCommand command with the PropertyStructure= parameter.
The problem is, how do I do this (programatically)? The user should not have to navigate via /ume/users to find their user to edit.
Hope this makes sense.
Thanks,
Martin

  • Extending user details: Label in user Profile

    Hello,
    I have followed the document "How to Extend User Details" to add custom properties to user details. However, although it is possible to add labels to the user details iView (which you can access from KM), it does not seem possible to add labels for these properties on the User Profile (which you access through Personalize->User Profile).
    I have checked <a href="https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/sdn/thread?forumID=42&threadID=129068&messageID=1443674">this</a> post, and the answer refers to the User Details iView, not the User Profile maintenance.
    Regards,
    Martin

    Hello Anja,
    This is a nice surprise (I remember you from your visit here to SA Breweries).
    The labels display fine in the User Details iView, but in Personalise -> User Profile, only the field names show up, the way they have been defined, e.g. expertarea, as opposed to "Expert Area", just as in the screenshots in the How-To Guide. The entries save without a problem.
    In other words, the field labels show up just as you defined them in UM Configuration, but you have no ability to change them to proper descriptive texts (as you would with KM property labels).
    Regards,
    Martin

  • Displayed data in User Details vs. Information entered in User Profile

    Hello All,
    I am running Portal 7.0 SPS13.
    In my Users Profile tab "Additional Information" I entered:
    Organizational Unit:  NIS
    Position: Consultant
    Department:  <is greyed-out / not editable>
    In my Users Details tab "Company" I only see:
    Job Title: Consultant
    My Questions are:
    1) Why do I only see the Information from "Position"
    2) The greyed out field "Department" is not filled (I guess at this point that it gets filled with the department information from the MS ADS (LDAP). But it's not.  Whoever the telephone information from the MS ADS is transferred to the regarding UME fields
    Thank you in advance for your help and hints.
    Kind regards,

    Hello electrazy,
    This is not possible from within the IDK. The best you can get are the Extended Data properties that are associated with the user object in the Global Property Map. If you want to get user information like the authentication name and the login name, you'll have to use the Portal Server API or directly query the database.

  • Wrongs user Details showing in welcome text. "Masthead"

    Dear all,
    Can you please explain why Mr. xyz name is displayed when Mr. abc has logged into portal with his own Login ID?
    In UME,,, all users realted details are correct.
    Regards
    Deepak Raikwar

    Hi,
    Check in User Admin whetehr the correct name is maintained over there or not. Check whether the Logon ID and the Name maintained for the same is correct or not. Still if it shows the wrong name, then just edit the user details and just change and set back the correct name and save it. Then open the portal in a new browser after clearing the cache. if nothing works then restart the portal and try again.
    Thanks,

  • Tabular Form - How to store in a column the User details (APP_USER)

    Hi all,
    I have let's say the following table:
    USER_COMMENTS(
    ID number primary key,
    COMMENT_TEXT varchar2(50),
    POSTED_BY_USER varchar2(50),
    DATE_POSTED date,
    UPDATED_BY_USER varchar2(50),
    DATE_UPDATED date)
    How do I, using a Tabular Form, get the USER details in the columns POSTED_BY_USER and UPDATED_BY_USER and the SYSDATE in DATE_UPDATED...
    I've tried the following:
    Created tabular form, all fields included. In Report Attributes > edit UPDATED_BY_USER > Display as Display as Text (saves state); Default Type: Item (application or page item); Default: APP_USER.
    It's not working.
    Thanks!
    Andrei

    It has to be a text field column type with source like the other updatable columns. You should hide that column and create a second of display as text if you want to show the content. Once this is done then you can use the default value and just type the item name there as you did:
    P1_ITEM

  • Extended user rights and 500 users limits on a PDF Form

    Hello,
    I read that there's 500 users limits for using extended user rights on Acrobat Pro 9.
    Here's my situation:
    - I built an application PDF form with extended user rights for Adobe Reader users to save the form. And I'm going to be hosting it on the web for users to download the PDF form to their local hard drive.
    - The form will have a button to submit to a web page with a script for processing FDF, XFDF, XML, or HTP form export.
    My question is:
    1. Would it be violating the 500 users limits if more than 500 users download the form and save the PDF after filling out fields, but not submit the data back to the server?
    2. What would happen if more than 500 responses are received through above method? Would new visitors still be able to save the PDF form for their archive purpose after downloading it from our web site?
    Thanks.

    Can Adobe's licensing department define "extract"?  I know there is a lot of confusion here and I'm trying to understand.
    Here is our scenario:  We have developed an Adobe fillable form which we will be sending to 1000 customers.  Customers can open the form (in Reader v9.5 and greater) and fill out the form, validate it and then print it.  The customers are not sending the PDF files back to us and the PDF data is not being collected so there is no data we can extract from Adobe files (we are not that advanced yet).  Customers will just print the information, then fax or send back to us by U.S. Mail. 
    When we receive the completed information (via fax/mail, not PDF), we read information off our form.  Does Adobe consider reading our information “extracting” with our eyes?  I’m not sure how they can consider that extracting?  I would think Adobe owns the mechanism (aka PDF file) for validating our content, but they wouldn’t own the content on our form if we want to physically read it, right?
    Adobe needs to clarify this more clearly and I’ve ready their interpretation of the Policy, but it doesn’t address this scenario.  http://www.adobe.com/products/eulas/pdfs/Reader_Extension_Policy_A10-5-31-2011.pdf

  • User details are not populating in access request

    Hello All,
    We have configured GRC 10 with LDAP and we are able to search the users in LDAP tcode(find option) and in the access request. But when i select the user and click on ok in the access request, user information is not populating to user details tab. I have followed the SAP Standard doc and configuration is fine. When i select data source as SAP system, user details are population as expected. But when i use LDAP as data source, i am having the issue. I hope this is an field mapping issue but i tried all different options but no solution i found. Kindly help me with your expert suggestions.
    Field mapping is as follows:
    LASTNAME
    SN
    FIRSTNAME
    GIVENNAME
    USERID
    SAMACCOUNTNAME
    ROLE_NAME
    NAME
    MEMBER_OF
    MEMBEROF
    EMAIL
    MAIL
    MANAGERID
    MANAGER
    Regards,
    Jai Reddy.

    I know the path, but how to check it? is it using metaverse search?
    Look at the Runs. Are they succeeding, or failing to connect?
    Remove the Bit 17 and try again.

  • Saving Extended User Right Forms

    Hi,
    I'm attempting to bring my office up to date by using forms on computers.  Currently we still the type writer for some forms.  I fought to get Adobe Acrobat Pro and now that I have it I'm not sure it's doing what I want.  Suggestions on how to use this program better or get the 'right program are appreciated' (no disrespect to the Adobe Team).  I converted a form that was created from Word Document into a PDF.  I then Extended User rights.  I have the form made but everytime I go to save the form, I have to Save As: that is to say I just can't save the stuff I filled-in, in the same file and a new file is created.  With MS Word, even though I can't tab between forms, I don't have to make a new file.  Am I doing something wrong, is it possible to just hit Save in a fillable form and not have to create a new document or version?
    In the office, I am the only one with Adobe Pro 9 and the other people in the office mainly have Adobe Reader and not acrobat, so I want to save the forms using Adobe Reader.
    Thank you for your insights.  I've been researching this but no answer has come my way.
    Ricardo
    P.S. I am not trying to collect data from them, I just need forms to fill out and print and also save in the computer.

    You should apply the Extended User Rights as the last step in the process
    of creating the file. Once you do that, it creates a sort of signature on
    the file which prevents you from editing it further, unless you remove
    those rights. So get the file working the why you want it, apply the
    rights, and then save it under a new name. You can then publish the version
    of the file with the Reader rights, and continue working on the one without
    them.

    Hello,
    You can change details of the user via IUserMaint interface.
    for example this is how you change the language of the user :
    IUserMaint Muser = uf.getMutableUser(userUniqueid);
    boolean res = Muser.setLocale(new Locale("en"));
    Muser.commit();
    You can find details about IUserMaint  in [http://help.sap.com/javadocs/NW04S/SPS09/se/com/sap/security/api/IUserMaint.html]

  • "User Details" don't get updated

    Hi,
    we have strange phenomenon that after editing user details like contact information etc. the User Details page in collaboration is not showing anything of the new data. Even an inkremental Index-Update has no effect on this - whereas in UME the new data is shown properly!
    Can somebody give a hand on this issue?!
    br

    Hi,
    You need to check first that the "Room Content Location" of the room.You need to modify the details of the user on the same node mentioned in "Room Content Location".If you modify the details in some other node it won't get reflected in the team room's contact information.
    For eg:- If the "Room Content Location" for a particular team room is UK Portal node then we need to modify the user details from that node only.If we try to modify them from any other node the change won't get reflected.
    Hope this helps.

  • User Details iView - show an image as property

    Hi,
    I would like to add an image to the user details iView showing the gender of the person (e.g. male = blue icon, female = red icon).
    So the shown image must be depending on the users gender.
    Do you know if this is possible? Is it only a "simple" Layout render or something else?
    Showing icons should be possible I think (the collaboration visible status is also there). But how can I add own Icons representing a property?
    Would be great if you could tell me if this is possible and how.
    Thanks in advance.
    Stefan

    Hi Stefan,
    how do you add the text? As plain HTML? This would explain why it looks different from the rest of your text since plain HTML by default doesn't get the font style that is applied to other HTMLB elements.
    Three ways to style the text the way you want it:
    1) Use an HTMLB control which renders the font the way you want it (e.g. label)
    2) View the source code of your generated HTML. Find a text snippet which looks the way you want your text to look. Copy the CSS class and add it to your text for example with a span:
    <span class="classnameyoulookedup">Your Text</span>
    3) Add the styling you want directly inline to your text:
    <span style="font-size:...">Your text</span>
    I hope this helps,
    Esther

  • User Details Data Source in CUP 5.3

    Dear GRC Gurus,
    Iam configuring CUP 5.3., in the User data source (which is used to fetch users,approvers,managers from backend)  there is User Details Data Source -> i select SAP and i get the system name -> There is a Field Function Template -> there are two options, standard and Custom. 
    What is the use of Function Template ?
    What is standard and Custom?
    If we select Custom, what should we enter in Function Template Name?
    Can you please clarify
    Thanks a lot...
    Regards
    Selva

    Hi,
    The user data source only reads the user details for use in defaulting the information into request forms / workflow.
    I believe that the function template just tells the system whether to use standard fields within the SAP user master or whether you have requirements to use alternative field mappings.
    I don't think that the custom template name matters as it is identified.
    I must admit that I haven't used it so I may be wrong but that is my current understanding!
