How to set a default folder in Advance Search

We have enabled the Search Scope Selection option for the default search iView in the Tool Area.  Therefore, when a user clicks the Advance Search link in the Tool Area, they can choose the index they wish to search or they can select a folder by browsing the KM folder structure.  When they click on the browse button, their initial folder is /root.  We would like to set the default browse folder to a lower-level folder, like /documents.
Does anyone know the best way to set the initial search folder for the default search iView?

Hi Andrew
The short answer is that I dont think you can change the default "browse folder". It will let the end users browse whatever folders they have the permission to view. But you can solve your problem in some other ways, like:
1) Remove any permissions regarding the root folder for the end users. In this way they will not be able to browse it through the search component. Configure permissions for all other folders you dont want end users to access.
2) Create a range of meaningful indexes and only let the user search the indexes (with a meaningful name), not the folders. If you like, you can hide the folder search option by adding &EnableSearchFromFolder=False to the KM search parameters (search the forum for more info).
3) Give the users access to a simple KM navigation iview with a customized layoutset that only lets the end user browse the documents repository and contains a link to the UI command "search_from_here" which will "Opens a dialog box for searching within the current folder or subfolders" (taken from the description of the ui command).

  • How do I set the default folder for file - open file... ?

    When I save a file, photo, etc., the default folder for OPENING a file becomes the last folder I SAVED to - even after closing and reopening Firefox. Is there a way to maintain the same default folder for opening files?
    Thanks.

  • How to Change Outlook Default Folder for Insert-Attachment and Save Email/Attachemnt while Outlook is open (VBA)

    Hello,
    Office 2010 32bit, VBA
    Is it possible to programmatically do the above while Outlook is running?  If so, I'm hoping to make that change from a Word macro.
    I tried tinkering with the reg key and that doesn't work because it appears Outlook only respects it at startup time. Similary changing Word File-options-location of documents is respected only when Outlook starts.
    I'm looking to seamlessly keep Outlook's default folder in sync with Word's default folder as the users change working folders in Word, which they do many times per day (and they chose the folder among a couple of thousand possibilities).
    I'm hoping there is a difficult-to-find Outlook object I can manipuate to get to the end result.  IF there is such an Object I have been unable to find it.
    Many thanks!
    Julie

    Hi Julie,
    Based on my research, I think outlook object model doesn’t provide the way to change the default folder for insert attachment and save email/attachment.
    The way to change it is that we need to modify the registry setting and the outlook app should be restart.

  • How to set a default value for particular field in SRM PO Portal

    Dear Gurus,
    Im desparetly need a help in web dynpro on how to set a default value for a field(flag) in PO header tab in portal.
    My requirement is whenever the user press the edit button in PO screen,automatically a flag field should be set as abap_false.
    I dont think this will handle in check badi or change badi. i tried this part in onbuttonpressed overwriteexit in CNR_VIEW views,i can get the function EDIT in debugging mode,but dont know how to proceed further.....
    Many of them suggested to go with get attribute and set attribute for changing any particular field in web dynpro,but im not very familiar in using those get and set attributes.I request you people can give me sample code on how to identify my target field in the node and set the values while pressing EDIT Button.
    Thanks in advance...
    Regards,
    Sathish

    Dear Laurent,
    Thanks for your response,
    But i searched in enhancement spot of WD_BADI, but couldnt get the exact way to change the coding,
    My real requirement is, that particular flag should be enable and disable dynamically by checking a condition in my header values.So in that case i dont know how to proceed further to handle in the PO screen.
    Kinly guide me how to get the particular node of field in the Purchase order screen.
    Thanks you in advance,
    Sorry for the inconvenience if any

    From the iTunes menu bar try View>Show View Options.  Make sure what you want to see is checked and what you don't is unchecked.  You can do this (may need to do this) for any playlists, your main Library, etc.

  • Setting a default folder for exports

    I am sure when I migrated from Snow Leopard to Lion that it asked me to set a default folder to save files and exports.
    I set this to one I don't use and would like to amend it - how can I do this?

    Besides the location for Downloads, there is nothing in the OS itself that will do that.
    There is a third-party program called Default Folder which I think does something like that.

  • SRM 4.0- How to set the default values for product type (01) only for SC

    The radio button “Service” should not be visible.
    Also for search help (e.g. search for internal products) where a search should only be possible for product type 01 (goods). The system should not display the product type and internally always search for goods only.
    How to set the default values for product type (01) only for SC
    We needs to use Search help BBPH_PRODUCT which having parameter PRODUCT_TYPE
    Here we can set defalut value 01 but it is not correct one since same search help is using several places.
    We need to limit the search help results only for SC.
    Kindly help out me ASAP.

    The easiest way to set defautl values is to edit the batch class.
    Goto the characteiristic and go to update values.
    In here you probably have something like 0 - 100 as a spec range.
    On the next line enter the default value within this range.  At the end of the line, click in the box in the column labelled "D".  This indicates the defautl value for the characteristic.
    If you need to you can do this in the material classification view as well.
    Just to be clear, these values will only show up in the batch record.  You can not have defautl values in resutls recording screens.

  • How to set a default value in dropdown list in Wendynpro ABAP? Help!

    Hi Experts,
           I have Webdynpro for ABAP application that shows a DropdownwithKey UI element.
    1. I am able to populate the dropdown list. But by default the list is not showing any value. Only when I select a value from the list then it shows it.
    So how to set the default value to the first value in the list? Any code sample will be really helpfull.
    I have written the following code:
    method WDDOINIT .
      DATA:
        node_category TYPE REF TO if_wd_context_node_info.
      node_category = WD_CONTEXT->GET_NODE_INFO( ).
      node_category = node_category->GET_CHILD_NODE( 'CATEGORY' ).
      data:    LT_VALUESET type WDR_CONTEXT_ATTR_VALUE_LIST,
               L_VALUE type WDR_CONTEXT_ATTR_VALUE.
    L_VALUE-VALUE      = 'V1'.
    L_VALUE-TEXT    = 'yesterday'.
    INSERT L_VALUE into table LT_VALUESET.
    L_VALUE-VALUE      = 'V2'.
    L_VALUE-TEXT    = 'today'.
    INSERT L_VALUE into table LT_VALUESET.
    L_VALUE-VALUE      = 'V3'.
    L_VALUE-TEXT    = 'tomorrow'.
    INSERT L_VALUE into table LT_VALUESET.
    node_category->SET_ATTRIBUTE_VALUE_SET(
                 NAME = 'CAT_VALUE'
                 VALUE_SET = LT_VALUESET ).
    endmethod.
    Note that: I am using webdynpro for ABAP.
    Thanks
    Gopal

    I am not sure how it works in Web Dynpro for ABAP, but in Web Dynpro for Java to set default drop down value you will have to set the value for particular attribute (which is linked to the dropdown element)  in the context
    like
    wdContext.currentContext<nodeName>Element.set<FieldName>(<defalut value>)
    This generally done in Initialization method of the controller.

    There are a couple of ways of doing this:
    If you're editing on the canvas, press Shift + Enter.
    If you're working in Express View (see lower right hand corner of Project Siena), you'll need to copy a hard return from another app such as Notepad.
    I believe a better implementation of hard returns are in the list of requested functionality that you can find here:
