Exposing validation errors towards end users

I have some challenges related to business rules validation when using MDS as a domain hub
On a daily basis (with a limited number of transactions going into MDS from the source system(s)) it is probably sufficient to handle violation of business rules through mail notification / customized workflow.
However, when handling large data sets - it is not easy to get a (user-friendly) overview of all validation errors.
For instance: If you have several rules with multiple conditions on each - the member will be listed several times if it triggers one (or more) conditions on one (or more) business rules.
Anyone who have a solution for this problem ?

First off I have to say that we are doing something similar to the above but not for BR errors. In any case the process is extremely similar to what you are looking for. For your SSRS I would go off the View for that particular entity. in Web UI: 1. Go
to Integration Management -> Create Views 2. Add a View for the specific Entity . 3. Optionally you could take the above View and modify it in SQL management Studio to have fewer columns to make it faster, and give it another name (the drawback would be
you would have to manually change it if you need to later) 4. Have SSRS run off the View you created in 2 or 3. If you are asking about how to force Validation through SQL -> mdm.udpValidateEntity, but I am assuming that Validation is done automatically
while people are entering data. Or after staging, so you only need to see what has failed, or maybe passed ...

    Hello,
    I tested again and with the same code and the same java libraries. There is no problem using Apache with OpenSSL 0.9.6h. The problem only occures with OpenSSL 0.9.7.
    Are there any known incompatibilities between JSSE and OpenSSL 0.9.7?

  • Mandatory field validation error occurs when user cancels out of blank "cre

    Hi - I'm building an application using Oracle 10g 9.0.5.2, with ADF/UIX/Struts.
    I followed the technique described in the tutorial
    http://otn.oracle.com/obe/obe9051jdev/uixtutorial/lesson_uix.htm
    In that example they have a page called BrowseDeptEmp. On this page is a
    create button, which is linked to a /createEmpAction before displaying the
    FormEmp uix page, where the user is supposed to enter new employee data.
    So I did the same thing, but I added a cancel button on the FormEmp.uix page.
    If the user presses cancel on the FormEmp page, it goes through a 'rollback' DataAction (with a rollback operation dragged on it) and then back
    to the main page.
    here's my problem:
    If the user
    1. clicks the create button on the BrowseDeptEmp page
    2. Sees the blank form in the FormEmp page
    3. Changes his mind (does not want to add a new employee) and clicks cancel
    The FormEmp page displays validation errors on the fields that are mandatory in the DB! So the user
    can't cancel out of the create page unless he fills in the mandatory fields...!!
    How do I cancel out of a create page 1) without entering any data on the page and 2) without getting
    mandatory field validation messages?
    It must be simple but i can't figure it out....
    Please help :)
    Thanks
    Des

    I don't understand how this can happen if the user has not entered any data.
    Is there a commit action somewhere that is being triggered before the rollback?
    is your cancel button a submit button?
    one way to fix this is to convert the submit button into a
    regular button and have the regular button go directly to your DataAction (the one with the rollback).
    you can automatically create this button by drawing a pageLink from the page to the DataAction in the page flow diagram.

  • Validation Errors on TabPanel - How do I show them to user?

    I have a tabbed panel on one of my JSF pages with required=true validation on field on tabs other than the first tab. When the user does not fill in those required fields on tabs other than the first one, those field level error messages are not shown because the screen renders showing the first tab. Is there a way to switch the focus to whatever tab has validation errors, so the user can see that they missed filling in information? Right now, they just get a screen flicker and don't know what happened.

    Hi Seth,
    I think your script will be useful, please share them
    Here it is. It does the same items that the DPM tool does to the domain, with a few extra steps noted at the top.
    We create a group that has the permissions on the container, with the hope that one day, this feature will be available (DCR submitted).  In our support model, we would rather delegate permissions to support personnel to modify group membership than
    modify ACLs on system containers.    Your opinion on this may differ, so, feel free to remove it.
    It also gives our support personnel permissions to modify the sharemap container - so they can enable DPM EUR servers later.
    Both of these have been working fine for preparing a domain / enabling EUR.  Preparing the domain is run by domain admin, then, we leave enabling EUR to our support staff.
    Remember, this is not supported, this just makes the same changes that the EUR tool does.  You should use the EUR tool from Microsoft.

  • How to configure SharePoint HNSC with a reverse proxy server so that HNSC Share Point URLs are not exposed to end users.

    Could you please let me know how SharePoint HNSC can be configured with a reverse proxy server so that HNSC Share Point URLs are not exposed to end users.
    In normal path based site collections/web applications, reverse proxy configuration can be done using alternate access mappings with  Public URL = "proxy URL", internal = "HNSC Share Point URL" so that share point sends response back
    to Public URL = "proxy URL".
    In Host Named Site Collections,  alternate access mappings  are not supported. Each HNSC is designed to have only one URL in each zone. Zone is one of the five zones(Default,Intranet,Internet,Custom,Extranet) with each of which only one alternate
    URL is associated.  This is what we are able to get using power shell command "Set-SPSiteUrl", but this will not help us to get the response back to proxy URL after a request sent to share point because we could not find any mechanism in share
    point HNSC to respond  to a different URL(proxy URL). Consequently, Share Point URLs are exposed to  external users.
    Below share point article in MSDN blog is symmetrical to what we are observing with Share Point 2013 and Proxy Server. It mentions that internal HNSC URLs can’t be hidden using any proxy server. If  hiding the internal Share Point URLS is a requirement,
    it suggests to use a web application instead of host named site collections.
    Though I’m also observing the same behavior with Share Point 2013 HNSC, Could you please confirm my understanding is correct.
    http://blogs.msdn.com/b/kaevans/archive/2012/03/27/what-every-sharepoint-admin-needs-to-know-about-host-named-site-collections.aspx
    Excerpt from above article-
    "Host Named Site Collections Only Use One Host Name
    Continuing on the discussion on AAMs and host named site collections, you cannot use multiple host names to address a site collection in SharePoint 2010. Because host-named site collections have a single URL, they do not support alternate access mappings and
    are always considered to be in the Default zone.  This is important if you are using a reverse proxy to provide access to external users. Products like Unified Access Gateway 2010 allow external users to authenticate to your gateway and access a site
    as http://uag.sharepoint.com and forward the call to http://portal.sharepoint.com. Remember that URL rewriting is not permitted. Further, a site collection can only respond to one host name. This means if you are using a reverse proxy, it must forward the
    calls to the same URL.  If your networking team has a policy against exposing internal URLs externally, you must instead use web applications and extend the web application using an alternate access mapping."<u5:p></u5:p>

    Hi Satish,
    You are right that only one URL is allowed for each zone of the host-name site collections in both SharePoint 2010 and SharePoint 2013.
    It is by design that each host-name site collection only support one URL for each zone.
    The article below is about RTM version of SharePoint, and it is the same for SharePoint 2013 with the latest CU.
    https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/kb/2826457
    So to make the URL of HNSC not exposed to external users is not supported, you need to use path-based sites instead.
    Best regards.

  • End user cannot e-mail to most people... 550 error.

    I have an end user that reported to me that she hasn't been able to e-mail to some of her contacts for almost a year now. When I questioned what she was doing and see here is what I got.
    She uses WebAccess to manage e-mail. When she tries to send e-mail to contacts both inside and outside the district the other end user never gets said e-mail. She states she doesn't get an error or anything. When I have her demonstrate the process I notice that she gets a lot of "Save as Draft" when she presses the send button. I am still trying to figure out how to resolve that issue. She stated this started happening on her home (Personal) desktop but is now happening on her work laptop as well. She stated she was able to send e-mail using her phone.
    When I e-mailed her the first time I received an error from the MTA stating "550 A proper RFC822/2822 address must be given." I ran a GWCHeck reindex/fix against this account and it reported errors as well as fixed them. I was able to get her to e-mail to me using her laptop after that but she is still stating her home desktop isn't working. I can't find much regarding this specific error as stated. I did send her a response asking her to delete all contacts in Frequent Contacts and try to e-mail me again to see if she has issues with that. I am still waiting on a response for this.
    Anyone have an idea on how to resolve this?
    Thanks

    Clearing the frequent contact list and the GWCheck are good starts.
    Do subsequent GWChecks for this user come clean now? Sometimes the
    errors it says it clears needs some additional prodding to fully clear.
    Do you run regular GWChecks for the whole PostOffice? I usually aim for
    Structure Fix daily, and Contents Fix weekly. Checking those logs for
    this user may assist. http://www.konecnyad.ca/andyk/gwlogs.htm
    It would also be worth following a particular message with the user. Is
    the address actually accurate, what does the Properties of the sent
    item show, what messages does GWIA give about the message?
    If needed, there is message tracking that can be turned on to track the
    message through POA to MTA to MTA to GWIA.

    I am getting an error message when I go to open a PDF file on my MAC that says "Before viewing PDF documents in this browser you must launch Adobe Reader and accept the end user agreement.  I have already downloaded Reader many times and followed all of the troubleshooting options.  I have matched up my software, which is the latest version and checked to make sure my internet security is enabling java script.  I don't know what to do.  Please help.

    Chrome uses it's own pdf viewer. That's why you don't get the message.

    Make sure your files are not hidden : http://osxdaily.com/2009/02/25/show-hidden-files-in-os-x/
    Quit Safari and Adobe Reader if running.
    Go to HD/<Users>/<user name>/Library/Preferences/ delete com.adobe.Reader.plist
    Launch Adobe Reader from /Applications/

    If on a Windows machine, do what Bernd described above. Launch Adobe Reader on it's own, not by double clicking a pdf or a link in a browser.

    Hi Tbeirne,
    If you just want to save a pdf opened in Safari to your machine use the save as option from within the Reader plugin window. Just click on any of the buttons highlighted in below screenshots to Save a pdf at any location on your machine.
    or
    To summarize the issue, if you had opened an Internet PDF in a browser plug-in, you must use the save feature in the plug-in, not the Safari File > PDF Export, or File > Save As...
    Please let us know if this solution works for you and you are able to save and view PDFs files locally.

  • Adobe Reader X End User License Error

    Operating System: Windows 7 Professional x32
    Product: Adobe Reader X
    In reading through other forums it seems that this is a common bug with Adobe Reader X. We are a medical company and have a lot of CCR and CR's that are in PDF form. Seems that whenever one of these email attachments is involved where the C is next to the R in the PDF file name it throws up the following error:
    "Before proceeding you must first launch Adobe Acrobat and accept the End User License Agreement" - except we already accepted the license agreement on the first launch of Adobe Reader.
    The workaround that was suggested is to always enable protected mode but when we enable protected mode we can't open the PDF that way either. "There was an error opening the document. Access Denied."
    So the only OTHER workaround I've found is to open Adobe Reader first before trying to open the attachments and then it works. But my user's of course like things simple and would like to be able to just open the attachment without opening the Adobe Reader beforehand.
    Any ideas?

    The EULA will automatically pop up when you open Adobe Reader for the first time (after installing or updating).

    maybe someone can help me?
    thanks a lot

    Lucas,
    As far as I now, there is no possibility to differenciate users in a group.
    This means that if you can't differenciate users belonging to a group, you will not be able to identify if he is administrator or not of the group. So it will not be possible to assign him a specific role that will allow him to populate users in that group only.
    For your information, you can use the role "pcd:portal_content/administrator/user_admin/delegated_user_admin_role" to allow user to :
      - create other users
      - top grant roles for with they have the "Role Assigment" permissions
      - but not to populate groups (what could lead to security problem, ie you can make your self member of Administrators group, and so have the SuperAdmin role)
    Hope this help

        </form>

    You want the form to submit its results to a separate file which processes the data.  If this separate file finds errors, you want it to return control to the form page which would a) display the error messages, and b) populate the fields with the data entered?
    If that's the case, then the processing file would have to send the errors and the data back to the form page either as a) URL variables, b) a cookie, or c) entries in a database.
    Does that help?
