How to add and develop eCommerce to a live BC site.

Hi
I have an exsisting live BC site http://www.alchemiststea.co.uk/ and want to continue developing it by adding ecommerce to it.
I want to develope and share the site progress with the client without publishing to the live site untill development is complete.
I can see that I have the option of hiding pages and areas untill ready for publishing but I cant see how I would then be able to view or share the site in development.
What I really want is two versions of the site a live version and a development version. I can see that I could make a copy of the existing site and start a new BC trial version which I could copy back in to the live version's location (exsisting BC hosting) once complete. But this still seems a little cack handed and I'm concerned that it may not work as I would then need to manually add products, blogs news items etc as these would not copy over with the site.
Could anyone advise what best practice would be for this? Is there a magic button I'm missing?
Many Thanks
Cas

Hi Cas
You could put all your new pages in a Secure Zone, an area of the website that requires a user name and password. Once you have the site ready to launch, you can simply remove the Secure Zone for those pages.
Here's a quick 'how to' example:
To create a Secure Zone, first go to the Site Manager (left side menu in Admin) > Pages and create a new page. You can use this new page as the initial landing page once a user logs in (it could have links to any pages you are developing - a kind of handy place to put notes too for the client previewing your work in progress).
Next select Site Manager > Secure Zone. Add a new Secure Zone. Give it a name, like 'Development', and select your new landing page.
When you create a new web page for your client, you can add it using the Site Manager > Secure Zone > (name of your secure zone) > add pages to Secure Zone.
In the case of dynamic pages (like a catalog or product page) you would put links to these pages inside a page that is within your Secure Zone. Note that you can also use templates with Secure Zones. I'd suggest you use a duplicate copy of your site template for this so you can put links in the menu specific to the Secure Zone, like a link to a catalog or product page.
Next you will need a login page to access the Secure Zone. Create a new page for this and insert the Secure Zone login module from the Modules toolbox menu on the right of your Admin > Pages > editing.
Final part is granting access. In the Admin menu (right side) select CRM > Customers > Add Contact (if the user is not already in the CRM).
Once the customer is selected, choose Subscriptions from the tabs just below their name. Then check the box listed under Secure Zone.
Still in the CRM with that customer, select Details from the tab just below their name, if there is no user name or password shown, you can add one (click edit).
Hope that helps.

How to add and hide more fields in PPM?

Hello,
Im new to this tool and I would like to know how to add and/or hide customized fields. I've only know that Its somewhere under SPRO > Global Enhancements to Project Elements but Im a little bit lost there. Can somebody explain to me with details how to do this and also, does this need a specific access of developer to do this customization?
As this is a basic need for all, anybody that is new on the tool and search for this will have a good reference on this thread.
Thanks in advance.
Many regards!

The path is SPRO > Global Enhancements to Project Elements > Setup field control.Herein,once you select the field control you may proceed towards defining the conditions that influence the same. A step by step approach is explained in the below article that will aid you to change properties of custom fields.

How to design and develop Cost center with SAP BPC 5.1 ?

Hi all,
Can any one tell me how to design and develop cost center planning (what are the steps to follow) using SAP BPC 5.1?
Thanks,
Sandy

Hi Sandeep,
1:We need to look at whether cost center planning is tied to a profit center level and/or to a company code level
2:We could have dimensions like Account(which in this case would reflect cost element),category,entity,time with additional dimension s like profit center(cost centers can have a direct mapping to profit center,usage of properties would help in here),WBS ,projects,investment position id's etc.
3:We could look at different applications like HR(pay roll related expenses),admin,capex(to bring in depreciation values) etc to bring in data to pull in data to different cost centers either directly or via script logic(usage of destination_app)
4:For those values not tied up to profit centers ,we would look at allocating/distributing the expenses to different cost elements
5:We need to decide whether we do the planning on a monthly/periodic vs yearly level where in we would look at actual values and incrementing at a certain % to fill in as the base for our planning(using category=actual/plan plus timeperiods).We could look at Top down vs botton up approach as well to segregate the planned costs
6:Consideration should be made at security level to identify/restrict different users who needs to access specific cost centers
Yes,this is just a small jist of structure,there are 100's of other considerations which would come into picture from a business requirement level.

How to test and develop the HTML/Backbone custom content viewer on IPad?

Hi
I have been tasked with developing and amending the HTML/Backbone custom content viewer as nicely detailed and explained by Derek Lu here:
https://www.adobe.com/devnet/digitalpublishingsuite/articles/html-default-library.html#
I can see that by removing the reference to libs/AdobeLibraryAPI.js in Index.html i am able to "test" on the desktop.

and that data is bought in via the fulfilment XML feed and the parse method is called on Librarycollection.
I have made the changes to hook up the viewer to bring in some folios that we are developing.
However, although this provides the ability to test and develop on the desktop in one form since we are using JS and Backbone, there are various checks within the provided code to see if ADOBE.isAPIAvailable.
If it is, then the behaviour is different than on the desktop, so once the viewer is packaged up and put on the IPad there is disparity between what you were able to check and test on the desktop version against what is shown on the IPad.
The question therefore is... is there a quick way to develop and test on the Ipad ... it doesnt seem like a viable option to develop blindly on the desktop and then package up the content viewer within Adobe DPS to check how those changes behave on the IPad?
To re-iterate the viewer is to make use of backbone / js example to provide greater functionality and options for customisation.
Thanks in anticipation.
Dave

Thankyou for taking the time to respond and for providing such detailed articles on adobe dps development, it is much appreciated.
I had completely missed that article and was struggling to find anything useful from googling!

How to add and delete content on device from iTunes

I cannot find the way to add and delete content on my devices from the new iTunes. I don't understand why they changed the way it worked without any tutorials or hints at how to use the new iTunes app. I can see my device, I can see that music is on there, but I cannot unselect songs or content to get rid of it. Also, my apps do not show up on the apps list, I can see the screens with the apps on them and can delete them from that but the list is not working. I am using Yosemite and iTunes 12.01

If you select your device in iTunes then on the left-hand side of iTunes you should see a Settings heading with categories below it which you can use to select what to sync from your iTunes library to the device, and below that an On My Device heading with categories below it listing what is on the device.
For the Apps tab, the listbox of apps on my Mac's iTunes doesn't always populate until I've scrolled up/down the window. If yours doesn't populate then you have your apps downloaded and stored in your Mac's iTunes library - the listbox shows what you have in your computer iTunes library, if your library is empty then the listbox will remain empty.

SSDT-BI: How to add and deploy environment settings

Currently I deploy my SSIS projects via the wizard to several sql servers, on which I have to add and configure individually the environment and map it to the project parameter.
Am I right in that it is not possible to manage the environment definitions within the SSIS project and to deploy them together with the project to a target server, specifying via a deployment profile/wizard which environments shall be deployed?
If yes -> I vote for adding this feature. It would help me to keep (source controlled) track of environment definitions for Test/Prod environments. Additionally, deployment to further server instances would be much smoother.
If no -> Please give me a hint how I can get to that point.
Thanks a lot!

In SSIS 2012 if you use project deployment model you can do this programmatically.

How to add and configure an additional hard drive.

I will like to know how to install and configure an additional hard drive. I will like to know how to configure the server so the services will start using this additional space. Intel based Xserver. late 2009.
Erik.

Your question is a little vague... "services will start using this additional space..."?
Let's see, where to start.
You don't say how many drives you currently have in your server. If all three drive bays are used then you'll probably need some kind of external array. There are many to choose from.
If you have a spare bay (or two) then you can buy a new drive bay (ADM - Apple Drive Module) (several online vendors still sell them), but you can't just put a bare drive into an empty bay since the blank trays lack the electrical connectors to support a drive.
Once you work out your drive options (internal vs. external, capacity, etc.) you can work out a plan to use them.
The specifics of that will depend on what services you're using. Are you web serving? file serving? home directory serving? or maybe mail? database? something else.
In general, once a drive is attached and initialized (via Disk Utility.app) it's up to you to configure the individual server components to use the space. That typically involves changing some kind of configuration parameter (e.g. httpd.conf for apache, /etc/my.cnf for MySQL, or various options in Server.app for other services) to tell them to use the new volume.
If you want to migrate the entire server to the new drive (e.g. the new drive is larger/faster) then you can clone your existing OS drive to the new drive and just reboot.
So, you see, there are many ways to do this. Everyone's situation will be a little different.

How to add and configure a usb device driver in SRSS for Sunray?

Dear Sir,
If I want to use a usb device on Sunray 2 (the usb device is plugged into Sunray's usb port), and I have been developed a usb driver on Solaris 10. Can I install the same driver in SRSS host to active the usb device in Sunray? If it can, how do I configure SRSS and where is the location of SRSS drivers? Can I use add_drv similar command to add my driver to SRSS?
The second question is when I plug-in a usb device to Sunray, can I see device information (VID, PID, and so on) in any log file or by any command as "prtconf -v" on Solaris?
Thank you very much.
Best Regards,
Steven

What sort of USB device do you want to use ?
The peripherals chapter in the SRSS admin guide tells you how to use supported USB devices.
http://docs.sun.com/source/819-2384/dev.html
Drivers written for Solaris devices will not work with Sun Ray devices. If you want to write a device driver for Sun Ray, it is recommended you use libusb for a userland driver. See libusb notes on same chapter mentioned above.
There is currently no SRSS utility to list Sun Ray device parameters like prtconf does.
You could write a libusb application to do this, or use the test program described here:
http://libusb.sourceforge.net/doc/examples.html

i could not under how ur page structure is but i will try to tell what i used in such a situation where u have to add or remove some elements from the page based on wht the user chooses.
I put buttons linking to the same page with a variable containing the row id in the url (http://something.com?id=10')
while displaying the records i will be iterating througnh the data row by row and displaying the text in the table.
but when i find a row id equal to the rowid passed i display it in another format with a form and text boxes to edit the data and a submit button to submit the data
like...........
while (rs.next())
     if(rs.getString("recid").trim().equalsIgnoreCase(request.getParameter("recid").trim()))
%>
     <form name="form2" method="post" onsubmit="javascript:return ValidateForm(form2)" action="camp_update_msg_a.jsp">
     <tr class="colstyle3">
          <td width="5%" valign="middle"><%= rs.getString("questionno").trim() %></td><td><TEXTAREA NAME="question" COLS=35 ROWS=4 ><%= rs.getString("question").trim() %></TEXTAREA></td><td><TEXTAREA NAME="answer" COLS=15 ROWS=4 ><%= rs.getString("answerno").trim() %></TEXTAREA></td>
          <td><INPUT id="submit1" type="submit" value="Submit"></td><td><a href="camp_del_msg.jsp?campid=<%=request.getParameter(campid").trim() %">&recid=<%= rs.getString("recid") %>">Delete</a></td>
     </tr>
     </form>
<%           }

     { %>
     <tr class="colstyle3">
          <td width="5%" valign="middle"><%= rs.getString("questionno").trim() %></td><td><%= rs.getString("question").trim() %></td><td><%= rs.getString("answerno").trim() %></td>
          <td><a href="camp_edit_msg.jsp?campid=<%=request.getParameter("campid").trim() %>&recid=<%= rs.getString("recid") %>">Edit</a></td><td><a href="camp_del_msg.jsp?campid=<%=request.getParameter("campid").trim() %>&recid=<%= rs.getString("recid") %>">Delete</a></td>
     </tr>

Good luck.............</a>

How to add and delete certain songs on iPod

I'm not a whiz that this stuff but I just want to put certain songs from my playlist in iTunes to my iPod, not all but just certain ones. How do you do it? Seems all my songs go to the iPod, what am I doing wrong?

Probably the easiest way to do it is to set up a playlist for your shuffle. Then plug in the iPod and under the music tab for the iPod, rather than having it sync all your library, instead tell it to only sync that playlist (it should be obvious how to do that when you see the page in iTunes).
You can now add to or delete from that playlist and those changes to the playlist will be reflected on the shuffle next time you sync it up with iTunes.

How to add and remove storage from ASM at the same time?

Scenario:
I want to drop some disks from asm
1- Add disk to asm -----> rebalance
2- drop disk from asm ----> rebalance
Is there anyway to make this process faster instead of going to rebalancing twice?

I think you could try something like this.....
Add with a power limit of zero and then drop the disks with a powerlimit of 11.
alter system set ASM_POWER_LIMIT=0;
select * from v$asm_operation;
alter diskgroup DBFILE01_GRP
add disk 'ORCL:DB0009', 'ORCL:DB0010', 'ORCL:DB0011', 'ORCL:DB0012';
alter diskgroup DBFILE01_GRP drop disk DB0001, DB0002, DB0003, DB0004;
alter diskgroup DBFILE01_GRP rebalance power 11;
select * from v$asm_operation;

How to Add and delete a row while using Abstract Table Model

Hi,
I need to do the following functionalities in JTable.I've done tht but a small problem.
1. Adding a row (Using addRow() method from DefaultTableModel).
2. Deleting a row(Using setRowCount() method from Default Table Model).
3. Sorting the table based on the selection of column(Using TableSorter which is using AbstracTableModel).
As the sorting is mandatory i've to change my model to Abtract Table Model
The problem is this Abstract Table Model doesn't have any methods to Add a row or deleting a row (setRowCount()).If anybody has written any utility method for this using Abstract Table Model help me.

Using TableSorter which is using AbstracTableModel).If your talking about the TableSorter class from the Swing tutorial, then you create the TableSorter class by passing it a TableModel. There is no reason you can't use the DefaltTableModel.
I changed the code in TableSorterDemo as follows:
        String[] columnNames = {"First Name",
                                        "Last Name",
                                        "Sport",
                                        "# of Years",
                                        "Vegetarian"};
        Object[][] data = {
            {"Mary", "Campione",
             "Snowboarding", new BigDecimal(1), new Boolean(false)},
            {"Alison", "Huml",
             "Rowing", new BigDecimal(3), new Boolean(true)},
            {"Kathy", "Walrath",
             "Knitting", new BigDecimal(2), new Boolean(false)},
            {"Sharon", "Zakhour",
             "Speed reading", new BigDecimal(20), new Boolean(true)},
            {"Philip", "Milne",
             "Pool", new BigDecimal(10), new Boolean(false)}
          DefaultTableModel model = new DefaultTableModel(data, columnNames)
               public Class getColumnClass(int c)
                    return getValueAt(0, c).getClass();
        TableSorter sorter = new TableSorter(model);
//        TableSorter sorter = new TableSorter(new MyTableModel()); //ADDED THIS
