How to disable options on Navbar in OBIEE based on user roles?

Hello All
Navbar is basically the header space in OBIEE application that contents stuffs like 'Dashboard', 'Signed in As....', 'Favorite', ''Home" and so on.. I know a lot of these stuffs can be hidden or removed from viewing.. But is there a way to do it to all user group 1 but keep it on for user group 2?
Please shed some light
Thank you

Hi
Have you tried this.
Steps:
1.Edit Dashboard->Add Text from Dashboard Object,write the following code inside that and Tick "Contains HTML Markup"
<script type="text/javascript">
var tds = document.getElementsByTagName('table');
for (var td = 0; td < tds.length; td++) {
if (tds[td].className != 'HeaderTopBar' && tds[td].className != 'HeaderSecondBar' ) {
continue;
if (tds[td].className == 'HeaderTopBar') {
//alert (tds[td].className);
var x = tds[td].parentNode;
//alert (x.className);
x.removeChild(tds[td]);}
if (tds[td].className == 'HeaderSecondBar') {
//alert (tds[td].className);
var x = tds[td].parentNode;
//alert (x.className);
x.removeChild(tds[td]);}
</script>
2.Give Section level Permission->Group 1 Denied and Group 2 Granted.
Plz mark if it helpful

How to hide custom fields in Shopping cart depening on user role

Hi,
We have some custom fields in shopping cart for basic view. Every thing works fine. Now client is asking to hide all the custom fields based on user role.
I found some function module to fund roles. now my main problem is unable to find the cusotm filed screen field name.
When I tryed to find the screen field name using BBPSC02/03, its giving 'GT_DISPLAY_100-FIELD'. If I try to use this field, its not working.
Could you pls tell me how to find custom screen filed name to hide in shopping cart.
Thanks,
Ram

Hi Ram,
As Laurent suggested,to hide the custom fields based on the user role,you need to implement the logic in BADi "BBP_CUF_BADI_2".
You have the importing parameter IV_USER in this BADI.
Pass this parameter to tables AGR_USERS and AGR_USERT to get the user role
OR
Use FM: BAPI_USER_GET_DETAIL
with USERNAME= user id and can retrieve Table: ACTIVITYGROUPS Field:AGR_NAME
if you want the otherway around
you can also use FM: RSRA_USERS_OF_AGR_GET
with I_AGR_NAME= role and you can retieve Table: ACTIVITY_GROUPS_USERS Field: UNAME(usr Id)
Then check the value for the User role as obtained using the above steps and accordingly set the property for the custom fields to hide them.
BR,
Deepti.

ECL Viewer - how to disable options / buttons?

Hi masters!
ECL viewer installed and working properly.
I wonder if it is to disable the menu options you have above the window, as a "viewer", tools and options.
Or, just how to disable the option "save file" within the menu "viewer".
Thanks.

Hi,
as the ECL Viewer is a third-party product there is no customizing possibility in the SAP system to disable to option button.
Best regards,

Usage of Different Prompt based on Users Role in OBIEE

Hi
I have a requirement(OBIEE Reports) as below.
The Dashboard page will have a Prompt(Drop Down) Say for Geography where it will list all the countries available.When a global user(Role) logs in to the application he should see all the list of available countries along with "All Choice" option in the prompt.But when a Country user(Role) logs in he should see only the country available for him in the prompt without "All Choice" Option.Also if the Country user(Role) belongs to more then one country he should see all countries he belongs to along with the "All Choice" option in the prompt.
Any help on this is Appreciated.
With Regards

Hi
Like David points, you may use Security Groups to display 1 or more Countries to the User depending upon 'Global' or 'Country'. You will have to use content filters to reflect the scope of the user in session.
Then 'All Choices' is a prompt front-end feature. You cannot restrict to 'Country' but 'Country' anyway cant see more rows that he is eligible. So, you may consider 'All Choices' for all users.

How to report with different time zone dynamically based on user's account?

Hello
I am wondering is there a way to change the report's date & time data based on user's locale setting in OBIEE?
Let's say the user log in to OBIEE with eastern time zone setting. The data that's in the database is storing a transaction of $400 at 1am Pacific time.
So when this user run a query which does something like 'select date, transaction, amount from date, transaction, sales where this = that', it should display the $400 amount done at 4am eastern time instead of 1am pst.
What I have done is to have data stores in date dimension to be UTC time, and I have also changed the data type of the date column to be 'local time zone'. DB is Oracle DB 11G now.
Now this query works perfectly well in the DB as long as I run the following commend first:
Alter session set time zone = 'whatever my time zone'
and then
Select date, transaction from tables..
The date displayed will automatically be converted into different time zone..
Since everything is working nicely from Oracle DB level, I need to know how to make it work when OBIEE sends the same query down to the DB..
I know that, probably I will have to enter the above alter session commend in the connection pool, however, I can't hardcode the time zone value.
I also don't want to store user's time zone in the user table because these users travels a lot. So even if his table setting is EST, but at a given day he can be traveling to pst time zone and view reports.
Is there a way to dynamically set the time zone based on user's account locale setting?
Let me know if you guys have implemented something similar or not
Thanks

Hello Sarvan
I have already done that part at the DB level and it is working perfectly with alter session commend before the query.
My question is, how do I configure OBIEE so that before each user runs a report from BI, the alter session commend will be fired with each user's personal locale time zone setting passed through so that each user will be able to view data according to their different time zone?did you tried with Connection scripts(Execute On connect) in Connection pool.write ur Alter commend to Change Time Zone in this script box.

In Java, you can use the [Password-based encryption PBE Cipher classes|http://java.sun.com/javase/6/docs/technotes/guides/security/crypto/CryptoSpec.html#PBEEx] . I think you'll need the bouncycastle provider to get AES-based PBE ciphers.

How to disable Option-Shift-Command-Q (Log Out immediately)

Does anybody know, how I can disable the shortcut Option-Shift-Command-Q, which Log me out immeditely. That’s because I sometimes hit this combination accidently while trying to press Option-Shift-Command-A or Option-Shift-Q (for the French quotation mark »).
I have tried to assign a new shortcut for the menu item using the system preference panel, but this doesn’t work.
I hope, someone can help me with this because it drives me crazy ...
Thnaks!

Thanks for the suggestion but that didn't help. I don't have a keyboard & mouse pane I only have keyboard or mouse to choose from, so I go to keyboard and there is nothing that looks like that screen. But I did find something that fixed my Command/Option/Control buttons from being locked, I clicked on Keyboard & then Modifier Keys, and it let me select no action for each of those, BUT it doesn't have the Shift option.
So now my problem is, when I press Shift twice in a row, it makes it lock. It's as if I'm holding down Shift all the time and I have to press Shift again to unlock it. I want to disable this. Does anyone have any ideas how to do that? I think I explained it wrong in my 1st post I thought I'd explain again (: But now I figured out it's called Modifier Keys soo I feel like I'm close to finding the answer. lol (:

How to disable options in ESS-Career and job-Skilla profile

Hi All,
In ESS-Career and Job-Skill profile,there are three are three buttons 1.EDIT SKILL,2.ADD NEW SKILL,3.DELETE SKILL.
I want to disable those options in Skills profile. Can some body please help me in solving this.
Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Thirun.

These three buttons are not configurable. You could easily modify them using NWDI and NetWeaver Developer Studio.
This is pretty much your only option to customize this iview.
If you have ESS in a track in NWDI, the Skills Web Dynpro project is under --> ess~skl. Create a project from here and open up the "Ovewview" View from the VcSklOverview Component.
From there, you just need to set the buttons to "Not Visibile"

How to disable OPTIONS in sun java web server 7.1

I found TRACE in one of meena web log seems good. But I did not find service the OPTIONS in obj.conf. Is there any way to disable this service as it is showing vulnerabilities in one of our scanning report?

<If $method="TRACE" or

   AuthTrans fn="set-variable"

</If>Place that near the top of your default object in the obj.conf. It should come before any NameTrans statements just to interrupt the request as early as possible.

How to disable a field in selection screen based on condition.

Hi,
I have 2 radio buttons- p_normd, p_recov and 2 other controls - like text boxes, say tb1 and tb2. and some mandatory fields below.
If i choose p_normd, i want one control(tb2) to be disabled and if i choose p_recov, i want the other control(tb1) to be disabled(tb2 should be enabled then.)
Currently i am using the following code. The 1'st radiobutton is intially checked. But the problem is when i click on the 2'nd radio button, the other control(tb1) is not getting disabled. When i double click, i get an error telling mandatory field to be filled. Only after the other mandatory fields below are filled, and after i double click on the unchecked radiobutton, the other control gets disabled.
Please suggest what to do..
The current code below:
AT SELECTION-SCREEN OUTPUT. "ON RADIOBUTTON GROUP rg01.
LOOP AT SCREEN.
IF p_normd EQ c_x AND screen-group1 = 'SC2'.
        MOVE 0 TO screen-input.
      MODIFY SCREEN.

How to disable a custom designed Tx code for multiple user at a time

Hii ,
I have designed a screen in module pool for end user to make entries in the screen and when he saves the data is saving in standard table and ztable. the main field in the screen is Batch number..from that batch number bag number will be generated. and consumed quantity will be saved in that bag no.Bag number will be generated like first 5 digits of batch number and bag number series of that batch number. for example if batch number is 12345 and already 5 times packing is done for same batch..last bag number in the ztable will be 123450005.so next time when user tries to pack using same batch number the new bag number will be 123450006 for batch 12345.Problem here is when user tries to make enrties in that Tx code and at the same time if another user opens same Tx code to make packing for same batch both of them are getting same bag numbers before saving.
I have called Enqueue and Dequeue FM's but still at a time for same batch user is able to do the packing.now my issue is i want to restrict 2 user to use same batch while packing in that Tx code.
I have written following code for enqueue and dequeue technics
data: B_matnr type mara-matnr,
       B_charg type mchb-charg.
data : i_temp type TABLE OF zpackhdr WITH HEADER LINE,
       i_temp1 type TABLE OF zpackhdr WITH HEADER LINE.
move : 1110 to WA_BCH-werks,
       chk_matnr1 to WA_BCH-matnr,
       v_bcharg to WA_BCH-charg,
       vgrade to WA_BCH-grade,
       new_batch to WA_BCH-bagno,
       m_baleno to WA_BCH-baleno,
       b_date to WA_BCH-indat.
APPEND wa_bch to i_bch.
clear b_date.
READ TABLE i_bch INTO wa_bch INDEX 1.
    B_MATNR = WA_BCH-matnr.
    B_CHARG = WA_BCH-bagno.
concatenate B_matnr B_charg into
    WA_BCH-objek respecting blanks .
   modify I_BCH from WA_BCH index sy-tabix.
CLEAR: B_MATNR,
           B_CHARG.
call function 'ENQUEUE_EMMCH1E'
EXPORTING
   MODE_MCH1            = 'E'
   MANDT                = SY-MANDT
   MATNR                = WA_BCH-MATNR
   CHARG                = WA_BCH-BAGNO
if sy-subrc <> 0.
endif.
call function 'DEQUEUE_EMMCH1E'
EXPORTING
   MODE_MCH1       = 'E'
   MANDT           = SY-MANDT
   MATNR           = WA_BCH-MATNR
   CHARG           = WA_BCH-CHARG

I do understand what u say...mine is a custom designed screen...when i open that screen i have around 15 input fields in which batch is obligatroy...when i give batch and hit enter all the other fields will be filled automatically picking from the table which are relevant for that batch..for example..material,order etc are picked from table...and bag number field will be generated taking first 5 digits of batch and followed by 0001 if its afirst time entry for that batch....so when a user is opening that screen in 2 different windows and giving details without saving any of the screens...in both screens bag number is generating as 001...and when saving it ..its saving 2 entries with same bag number...so i have created a lock entry for afpo table taking order field...so when a user opens 2 screens with same batch...and giving entries in those 2 screens without saving..he is getting same bag numbers as 001.....now when user saving the first screen and coming to second screen to save...he is gettimg message 'ORDER CURRENTLY BEING PROCESSED'..but after the data gettng saved in first screen,then when he saves the second screen it is getting saved...with same bag numbers as 001.so my issue is here...when he saves first screen and comes to second screen to save it the user should get that error message and should come out of the screen....so that he can make a fresh entry for that batch and bag number will be generated as 002 for that batch...

APEX4: How to create a report whose data is based on user input date fields

Using Apex 4 I've to create a report that allows the user to input two date and shows a report between the date range.
How can I do this?
Thank you.

This has nothing to do with apex 4.0. If you create a report using this query:
SELECT *
FROM emp
WHERE hiredate BETWEEN NVL (TO_DATE (:p1_date_from, 'mm/dd/yyyy'), hiredate)
AND NVL (TO_DATE (:p1_date_to, 'mm/dd/yyyy'), hiredate)and create two date picker items with names P1_DATE_FROM and P1_DATE_TO (take care of using the right date format), your report will show all records by default and those that match after you fill in the date items.
