How to define a custome property in User Profile to Save Roles Sort priority ?

Hi All,
I have a requirement where in, user should get an option to decide his default tab(role), when he logs into portal.
e.g.: If user1 and User2 is assigned with 2 roles namely Leave & Travel. User1 should be able to select Leave as his default tab and User2 should be able to select Travel as his default tab.
I was thinking if I can store what use selects in a custom property and change the tabs through custom application.
Please let me know how can achieve this in CE 7.3 portal.
Thanks in Advance,
Pavan.

Hi Pavan,
If you are using the AJAX framework page the user can simply drag the tabs and it will automatically be saved in the personalization.
user should:
1. place mouse over the role (in the top left corner you will see a triangle).
2. place mouse over triangle and, push and hold down mouse button.
3. drag the mouse to the navigation place where you want it to be (notice black line).
4. leave the mouse button.
Now the order of the tabs are saved in the personalization for that user only.
Hope this is what you meant.
BR,
Saar

Import a filed value from custom database into User Profile using BCS

Hi,
I have a custom DB in SQL with couple of columns.
I need to import one of the fields (userid) into user profile - custom property.
Please guide me to make it done.
My direction seems wrong..since I am new to user profile-BCS concepts.
I created a custom property in user profile services, while "configure synchronization connections', I clicked on new connection.
Type: Business connectivity services, selected
It needs external content type.
I opened CA through designer, clicked on External Content type, I am able to connect SQLDB and related fields.
But, I am not sure what to be done?? How to make my task completed.
Guide me, somebody, please!!
- GEM

This should create the External Content Type
Open SharePoint Designer
Choose the Site where you want the External Content Type to be created
Under Site Objects -> Click External Content Types
In the Ribbon -> Click External Content Types to create a New one
Provide a name for your ECT
Click ‘Click here to discover external data sources and define operations’
Click Add Connection, under Data Source Type choose SQL Server
Provide the connection properties to your SQL Server
Under Data Source Explorer, Expand the tables folder and choose the table you want to connect to
Right Click the Table Name and create a New Read Item Operation
Under Input Parameters, Select the Primary Key of your table and verify that it is map as the identifier. This is important as this will be the column that will be used to sync BCS data to SharePoint. Click on Finish
Right Click the Table Name again and create a New Read List Operation. Follow the steps on K
OPTIONAL: Once done you can create an external Lists based on the content type to verify if you are able to pull data from your External Source
You can verify if the list is created by going to the site where you have deployed the External List. If you encounter a “Access denied by Business Data Connectivity, you can resolve this by going to Central Administration -> Application Management ->
Manage Service Applications -> Business Data Connectivity Service, choose the External Content Type you have created -> Click Set Object Permissions -> Add the account that your are using and Set ‘Execute & Set Permissions’. Refresh the external
list page.
This will create the connection between the BCS properties and the Custom User Properties which are mapped to BCS.
To create a synchronization connection follow the steps below
Go to Application Management -> Manage Service Application -> User Profile Service -> Configure Synchronization Connections
Click Create new Connection
Provide a connection name for your connection
Under Type, choose Business Data Connectivity
Under Business Data Connectivity Entity, choose the External Content Type created on the BCS Step
Choose the property to identity the 1:1 mapping, this is a unique column that should exist on both the BCS Data and the SharePoint User Profile Properties.
This part will create the Custom User Profile Property to hold the BCS Data
Go to Central Administration
Under Application Management click Manage Service Application
Click User Profile Service Application
Click Manage User Properties then select New Property
Fill the necessary fields
Under Add New Mapping, select the BCS Sync connection you have created above and the field from SQL where you want to map this property
Run Profile Synchronization

How to reference a custom property in a vo transient attribute expr + bug

Hi all
I have created a transient attribute with an expression that evaluate null content to replace it by a appropriate text.
<ViewAttribute
    Name="DescriptionUI"
    IsUpdateable="false"
    IsSelected="false"
    IsPersistent="false"
    PrecisionRule="true"
    Type="java.lang.String"
    ColumnType="VARCHAR2"
    AliasName="VIEW_ATTR"
    SQLType="VARCHAR">
    <TransientExpression><![CDATA[((Description == null) ? 'Pas de description' : Description)]]></TransientExpression>
</ViewAttribute>I have defined a custom property for that attribute that contains the message text. I was surprised to see that the custom property was not associate with the attribute in the source file. Don't understand where the association is done
    <Properties>
      <CustomProperties>
        <Property
          Name="flex.tree.noLabel"
          ResId="flex.noDescription"/>
      </CustomProperties>
    </Properties>I had some difficulties to use the custom property editor. When creating a new related one by using an existing resource the property column value is not changed and the content 'Property' is generated. Because no relationships exists between attribute and the property, the entry is lost in the table referring custom property list for the attribute when your come back into the view object or if you save an another entry in an another attribute.
So my first question ? Is the attribute editing part the right part to define custom property pairs if they are not related to attributes ? is it a bug ?
My second question is : is it possible to evaluate the bundle in the expression (replacing the literal 'Pas de description' by an expression) ? What is the expression to use ? Where it is described to do such things in the help or in the documentation ?
Thank you

This is wrong
((Label == null) ? {FlexParameterModelBundle['flex.tree.noLabel']} : Label)
What is the correct syntax to refer to the project model standard bundle in the groovy expression ?
Thank for the help !

How to define a Custom Action in VC 6.0 ?

Hi all
I want to know how to define a custom action like for a check box UI Element, I want particular action to be performed when it is checked ? How can I achieve this in VC 6.0
Please feel free to ask me if my question is unclear ?
Regards
Kapil

Hi,
Try adding an expression element on your form.
Go to the Expression control properties and in the Expression attribute enter
IF(@Selected==true,"X"," ")
@Selected is the checkbox. For your function call input use the expression element and not the checkbox.
Hope this helps. Let me know if it works.
Thanks.

How to make a custom property editable/not editable in DRM

Hi,
How do we make a particular field i,e custom property category field as editable whereas make an another field i,e another custom propertyfield value as non editable in a same hierarchy within a particular version.
user has an admin privilage in the above case.

Hi,
If the user is an admin he will have access to edit all properties...but before that... what do you exactly mean by making a property editable/non editable? The only non editable properties are the derived properties... if beyond that you need to make custom defined properties non editable you have to work with setting up the security where the very first step is to not to have normal users as admin in the system.
Could you please detail out your requirement a bit more.
Thanks

How to modify the length of a user profile property

I need to increase the length of a custom user profile property, but the length looks disabled when I try to edit and modify. Is there any way i could modify this by powershell or some other work around where I can increase the lenght of the script?

You can't increase or decrease the size of one of the properties after they have been created. You'll need to create a new property and programmatically copy the values from the other property to the new one. Once that is done you can
delete the old property.

How to define the customer field in SC as mandatory

Hi all,
Could someone help me to define the customer field as
mandatory in the shopping cart?
Thank you a lot.
Best regards,
Danijela

Hi Danijela,
you could implement the BBP_DOC_CHECK_BADI and check if the customer field is filled. If not, you can issue an error message (Type 'E') in the BAdI. This message will be visible in the browser. The user will only be able to order the shopping cart when this error message is gone.

How to trigger a custom code when user log in?

Hi my friends,
We are using multiple sharepoint sites at work. Users log in with AD accounts, so they dont see any login page.
I need to run a custom code when user login to website. Event receivers do not help at this point. Any suggestions?
thanks in advance

Hi Ahmet,
From your description, my understanding is that you want to trigger some custom code when users log in SharePoint.
As a solution, you could customize a login page for your SharePoint, then you could trigger your code.
You could also use httpmodule to monitor user login. Please refer to this article about how to use httpmodule:
http://sharepoint.stackexchange.com/questions/100976/get-the-current-logged-in-user-in-sharepoint-added-httpmodule

How to simply add custom property to a HTML Form Web Part?

Hello.
Is it possible to add a custom property (like a date-field) to a HTML Form Web Part with help of JavaScript? I do not want to use Visual Studio / Nappa etc. Is this possible in an easy way?
Thanks for your help.

Hi,
Based on your description, my understanding is that you want to count the date between today and the latest event date.
You can create a calendar in a page firstly, then add a content editor web part rather than the html form web part, as html form web part can't place the Jquery element.
Then you can firstly read the date field value of the calendar list using JavaScript Client Object Model and then calculate the difference between two date values using Jquery. You can add the code directly in the content editor web part.
Here are some detailed code demos for your reference:
Get SharePoint calendar list field value using JavaScript Client Object Model:
<script src="http://code.jquery.com/jquery-1.9.1.js"></script>
<script>
$(document).ready(function(){
SP.SOD.executeFunc("sp.js", "SP.ClientContext", retrieveListItemsCal);
function retrieveListItemsCal() {
var clientContextCal = new SP.ClientContext.get_current();
var oListCal = clientContextCal.get_web().get_lists().getByTitle('Calendar');
var camlQueryCal = new SP.CamlQuery.createAllItemsQuery();
AllItemsCal = oListCal.getItems(camlQueryCal);
clientContextCal.load(AllItemsCal);
clientContextCal.executeQueryAsync(Function.createDelegate(this, this.onQuerySucceededCal), Function.createDelegate(this, this.onQueryFailedCal));
function onQuerySucceededCal(sender, args) {
var listItemInfo = '';
var listItemEnumeratorCal = AllItemsCal.getEnumerator();
var htmlCal = '';
while(listItemEnumeratorCal.moveNext()) {
var oListItemCal = listItemEnumeratorCal.get_current();
htmlcal= oListItemCal.get_item("Start Time").format("MMMM d, yyyy"));
break;
function onQueryFailedCal(sender, args) {
alert('Request failed. ' + args.get_message() + '\n' + args.get_stackTrace());
</script>

You can configure Hotmail to work on the iPhone. It works very well, I have had no problems with it. After upgrading to a Hotmail plus account, follow the instructions-

User Defined Table locked when multi users try to save data?

Hi All,
I am having a problem with User Define Table (UDT). I am just checking if somebody having the same problem as mine (any patch level).
I've developed an add-on to save additional data to some UDTs upon saving a Production Order. I added my code in FormDataEvent (After Action = True and ActionSuccess = True).
Here are my sequences to save the data:
1. Start Transaction
2. Remove Existing Data from 3 UDTs linked to the production order number.
3. Save to table 1, using UserTable object
4. Call function A to save to table2 , using UserTable object
5. Call function B to save to table 3, using UserTable object
6. Commit Transaction.
Note: I have a try catch and rollback the transaction if any exception thrown by .NET and SAP. Below are parts of my coding to handle exception from SAP
                If oUserTable.Add() <> 0 Then
                    oCompany.GetLastError(ErrCode, ErrMsg)
                    Throw New ApplicationException(ErrCode & "-" & ErrMsg)
                End If
in the try catch block, i add the following code
            If oCompany.InTransaction Then
                oCompany.EndTransaction(SAPbobsCOM.BoWfTransOpt.wf_RollBack)
                SBO_Application.MessageBox("[SaveRoute]:" & ex.Message)
                Return False
            End If
Now, the issue is in some occasions, when multi users try to save the Production Order, the data get deleted from the UDTs, but some of the data did not get saved yet it did not throw an exception. From our observation, it only happens when multi users are trying to save to the same table.
Does anybody having the same or similar issue? Really appreciate if you can share on this.
Many Thanks,
Harianto Ng

I Believe you should look carefully where in your code writting, you should start transaction and be sure of using end.transaction commit if the insert sends a succesfull message, and rollback it for negative message.
I used to start transacción right before .add method
Wha DBMS are u using?
Hope it helps.
