How to tell if a user has logged in to teststand

I am using a custom LV UI. I would like to know if there is a way to tell if the user has clicked the cancel button on the standard TS login. I would like to keep using the standard TS login if possible.
Thanks
Joe.
"NOTHING IS EVER EASY"

Hi Joe,
Unfortunately, the default TestStand login code uses a TestStand engine method (DisplayLoginDialog) to handle this dialog box. The method returns a user object based on the user's selections, and cannot be modified. However, a clone of theTestStand login code developed in LabVIEW can be downloaded from the developer zone. This set of VIs does not use this method, and will allow you to configure what data is returned by the dialog.The files can be downloaded here:

Let me know if you need any help configuring this code, and I'll be happy to help!

How to check if the user has log in when he log in again?

Hi all,
I was wondering how to track if the user has already log in?
When this user using browser A to log in then he try to log in using a new browser, then hw I am I going to know that, and terminate his session?

Hello!
You can try this code if you want that if a user is login at a machine and tries to login from the other, then he can continue his processing at second machine ('cos it will get the high priority) but can not process from the first machine. This code allows to login but only second one will be active.
<jsp:useBean id="monitor1" scope="application" class="java.util.HashMap"/>
if(monitor1.containsKey(num)){
HttpSession oldSession = (HttpSession) monitor1.get(num);
oldSession.invalidate();
monitor1.remove(num);
monitor1.put(num , session);
But if you want to restrict it at the time of second login then u can use any of the techniques discussed above.

How to find Responsibility through which the user has logged in to Disco.

Hi All,
I have got a requirement to create a "Usage Report Summary by Responsibility" for all Oracle user having an Access to Oracle Disco Viewer.
In the report, I need to show the list of Oracle Users and the Responsibilities through which an User has logged in to Disco Viewer.
Kindly help me in finding the corresponding Disco tables to full-fill this requirement.
Available Information/queries in my Hand:
1. Query to find the list of Workbook and its shared Responsibilities
2. Query to find number of times an Oracle Disco Report has been run.
Thanks a ton in Advance
Arun

Hi Arun
The first place to look is to try running one of the pre-built workbooks created by Oracle for this purpose.
I see you are working in Apps mode. Therefore, you'll need to run both of these scripts when logged in as the owner of the EUL:
1. EUL5.SQL
2. EUL5_APPS.SQL
You will find both scripts in the $ORACLE_HOME/Discoverer/Util folder where your Discoverer Administrator tool is located.
Next, you will need to log into the Administrator tool and import this EEX file: EUL5.EEX
You will find the EEX file located in $ORACLE_HOME/Discoverer, again on the PC where Discoverer Administrator tool is located.
After you have imported the EUL, log into Desktop or Plus and open up the EUL5 workbook that you will now see in the list and work through the various worksheets. You should find one or two that will give you what you want.
Let us know how you get on
Best wishes

How to get the dates a user has logged into the portal??

I need to know all the times and the dates a user has loggin to the portal? Do you know any way to do this? I was trying to use "successfullogoncount" from UME_STRING of the PCD database but it doesn't say anything about the dates. I also try to use "lastsuccessfulllogon" from the sama table but, as the name says, it just give me the last date of logon... Please help!!!

Hi Pablo,
probably you could work with Portal activity reports.
This can generate reports on activity in the portal, either reports on how many users were logged on to the portal or reports on the most popular pages and iViews.
look out on this weblog at
https://www.sdn.sap.com/sdn/weblogs.sdn?blog=/pub/wlg/1242. [original link is broken] [original link is broken] [original link is broken]
From this you can know which user has logged on at which date and time.
If you are not looking for Portal activity reports try this:
You can get this information in the Visual Administrator of the J2EE Engine.
Goto Security Provider Service -> Runtime -> Login (Sessions).
This would return a table showing the users along with the logging in start date&time, (if logged out) log out date&time, user-Ids, etc.
Hope this helps,
Regards,
Uma.

How to detect if a user has changed a record using a custom method?

I am in the process of developing a test case application using ADF JSF and a collection of Java objects that are not populated by a database.
Details of what I have developed so far can be found on this post:
how to create a new record using a custom method?
Is it possible to detect if a user has changed the value(s) of a record?
I have set the edit page up (as described in the other post) and this works fine, but how could I tell if the user has changed something on that record. This is what I would like to do, but am not sure how to achieve it or whether it is possible....
when the user puts a record in edit mode, take a copy of that record
then when the user presses save or exit to navigate away from the edit page do a comparison between the original values and the potentially changed ones
then depending on the outcome of the comparison call an appropriate action
Thanks in advance for your help
David

If you just want to know if the value has changed you can put it in a while loop and use shift registers to see if the value has changed.

How to check if the user has only the display authority of a message

hi,
How to check if the user has only the display authority of a message but does not have the change authority for a certain message?
Best regards,

hi blake
though i am an application consultant and for authorisation u need to have help of BASIS person if u r not the one but still i can guide u regarding the same,
Basically Authorization Management
Use
You can use the following authorization objects to control the authorizations for maintaining business partner data:
        Authorization objects for the Business Partner:
             B_BUPA_GRP
             B_BUPA_ATT
             B_BUPA_FDG
             B_BUPA_RLT
Authorization objects for relationships:
             B_BUPR_BZT
             B_BUPR_FDG
In addition, you can assign an authorization group to a business partner in the dialog. The authorization group controls which users may maintain data for this business partner.
You can also define authorizations for fields and field groups using the Business Data Toolset (BDT). Depending on the settings you have made, the system carries out the relevant authorization checks.
In the dialog in the SAP GUI, you can display an overview of the authorizations assigned to you by pressing the button Settings.
For more information on authorization management, see the Implementation Guide (IMG) of the Business Partner, as well as in the Developers Handbook for the BDT under Authorizations.
IntegrationAuthorization management for the Business Partner forms part of the SAP authorization concept.
Prerequisites
You have made the necessary settings in Customizing of the Business Partner under Basic Settings--> -Address Management.
Moving over
AS ABAP Authorization Concept
The ABAP authorization concept protects transactions, programs, and services in SAP systems from unauthorized access. On the basis of the authorization concept, the administrator assigns authorizations to the users that determine which actions a user can execute in the SAP system, after he or she has logged on to the system and authenticated himself or herself.
To access business objects or execute SAP transactions, a user requires corresponding authorizations, as business objects or transactions are protected by authorization objects. The authorizations represent instances of generic authorization objects and are defined depending on the activity and responsibilities of the employee. The authorizations are combined in an authorization profile that is associated with a role. The user administrators then assign the corresponding roles using the user master record, so that the user can use the appropriate transactions for his or her tasks.
Authorization Checks
To ensure that a user has the appropriate authorizations when he or she performs an action, users are subject to authorization checks.
The following actions are subject to authorization checks that are performed before the start of a program or table maintenance and which the SAP applications cannot avoid:
        Starting SAP transactions (authorization object S_TCODE)
        Starting reports (authorization object S_PROGRAM)
        Calling RFC function modules (authorization object S_RFC)
        Table maintenance with generic tools (S_TABU_DIS)
Checking at Program Level with AUTHORITY-CHECK
Applications use the ABAP statement AUTHORITY-CHECK, which is inserted in the source code of the program, to check whether users have the appropriate authorization and whether these authorizations are suitably defined; that is, whether the user administrator has assigned the values required for the fields by the programmer. In this way, you can also protect transactions that are called indirectly by other programs.
AUTHORITY-CHECK searches profiles specified in the user master record to see whether the user has authorization for the authorization object specified in the AUTHORITY-CHECK. If one of the authorizations found matches the required values, the check is successful.
Starting SAP Transactions
When a user starts a transaction, the system performs the following checks:
        The system checks in table TSTC whether the transaction code is valid and whether the system administrator has locked the transaction.
        The system then checks whether the user has authorization to start the transaction.
The SAP system performs the authorization checks every time a user starts a transaction from the menu or by entering a command. Indirectly called transactions are not included in this authorization check. For more complex transactions, which call other transactions, there are additional authorization checks.
             The authorization object S_TCODE (transaction start) contains the field TCD (transaction code). The user must have an authorization with a value for the selected transaction code.
             If an additional authorization is entered using transaction SE93 for the transaction to be started, the user also requires the suitable defined authorization object (TSTA, table TSTCA).
If you create a transaction in transaction SE93, you can assign an additional authorization to this transaction. This is useful, if you want to be able to protect a transaction with a separate authorization. If this is not the case, you should consider using other methods to protect the transaction (such as AUTHORITY-CHECK at program level).
        The system checks whether the transaction code is assigned an authorization object. If so, a check is made that the user has authorization for this authorization object.
The check is not performed in the following cases:
You have deactivated the check of the authorization objects for the transaction (with transaction SU24) using check indicators, that is, you have removed an authorization object entered using transaction SE93. You cannot deactivate the check for objects from the SAP NetWeaver and HR areas.
This can be useful, as a large number of authorization objects are often checked when transactions are executed, since the transaction calls other work areas in the background. In order for these checks to be executed successfully, the user in question must have the appropriate authorizations. This results in some users having more authorization than they strictly need. It also leads to an increased maintenance workload. You can therefore deactivate authorization checks of this type in a targeted manner using transaction SU24.
             You have globally deactivated authorization objects for all transactions with transaction SU24 or transaction SU25.
             So that the entries that you have made with transactions SU24 and SU25 become effective, you must set the profile parameter AUTH/NO_CHECK_IN_SOME_CASES to Y (using transaction RZ10).
All of the above checks must be successful so that the user can start the transaction. Otherwise, the transaction is not called and the system displays an appropriate message.
Starting Report Classes
You can perform additional authorization checks by assigning reports to authorization classes (using report RSCSAUTH). You can, for example, assign all PA* reports to an authorization class for PA (such as PAxxx). If a user wants to start a PA report, he or she requires the appropriate authorization to execute reports in this class.
We do not deliver any predefined report classes. You must decide yourself which reports you want to protect in this way. You can also enter the authorization classes for reports with the maintenance functions for report trees. This method provides a hierarchical approach for assigning authorizations for reports. You can, for example, assign an authorization class to a report node, meaning that all reports at this node automatically belong to this class. This means that you have a more transparent overview of the authorization classes to which the various reports are transported.
You must consider the following:
              After you have assigned reports to authorization classes or have changed assignments, you may have to adjust objects in your authorization concept (such as roles (activity groups), profiles, or user master records).
              There are certain system reports that you cannot assign to any authorization class. These include:
              RSRZLLG0
              STARTMEN (as of SAP R/3 4.0)
              Reports that are called using SUBMIT in a customer exit at logon (such as SUSR0001, ZXUSRU01).
              Authorization assignments for reports are overwritten during an upgrade. After an upgrade, you must therefore restore your customer-specific report authorizations.
Calling RFC Function Modules
When RFC function modules are called by an RFC client program or another system, an authorization check is performed for the authorization object S_RFC in the called system. This check uses the name of the function group to which the function module belongs. You can deactivate this check with parameter auth/rfc_authority_check.
Checking Assignment of Authorization Groups to Tables
You can also assign authorization groups to tables to avoid users accessing tables using general access tools (such as transaction SE16). A user requires not only authorization to execute the tool, but must also have authorization to be permitted to access tables with the relevant group assignments. For this case, we deliver tables with predefined assignments to authorization groups. The assignments are defined in table TDDAT; the checked authorization object is S_TABU_DIS.
You can assign a table to authorization group Z000. (Use transaction SM30 for table TDDAT) A user that wants to access this table must have authorization object S_TABU_DIS in his or her profile with the value Z000 in the field DICBERCLS (authorization group for ABAP Dictionary objects).

Determining wether a User has Logged into an NTDomain

Does anyone have any suggestions as to how I can determine, programmatically,
wether a user has logged into an NT Domain, from a Win95 PC.
From an NT workstation, I can simply check the USERNAME andUSERDOMAIN environment variables. Is there possibly a Win32 API
call that I can make ?

How to find out the users currently logged into ODI

Hi all,
How to find out the users currently logged into ODI Work Repository?
Thanks.

Hi,
It stores all the final queries in work rep table i.e "SNP_SESS_TXT_LOG" and the column is "TXT".
Here u can find all the ODI bkp process queries.Pls specify the SESS_NO for purtivular task u want to check which u can get this in ODI operator.
I dont think so that it will keep the substituted value(because its implicit and temporary process) but it will keep all the default values in the table SNP_VAR_SESS and the column is "DEF_V".
Thanks,

How can I tell if a user has already authenticated against AD?

Sorry to begin with if this has been dealt with in another thread already. Ive taken a look around and cant see something that answers my questions exactly. If such a thread exists, please point me in that direction.
We have a product that needs to be installed on a customer site. Its a windows based, web fronted application with a client program on the user's pc and a server side component that handles requests for data. What I need to do is to check if the user has already authenticated against active directory. If so then I dont need to ask for authentication (single sign on).
This is my first look at jndi so Im in the dark about how this should be done. Is there a way to use the user's credentials (is there a token?) to check or do I need a specific login for my application to access the customer AD?
Any tips would be very welcome,
Mark

How to erase the last user that logged on to BO ?

Hi!
When you log on to Business Objects 6.5, the name of the last user that logged on is presented to you.
When logging in to BO, the userID of "ADBONDT" shows at the PC of user "DLECOIN". User DLECOIN is therefore convinced that user ADBONDT sneaks into the office at night and uses his PC to connect to Business Objects. Which is nonsense, user ADBONDT has her own computer, own office, own login... Of course, at some point in the past, ADBONDT may have used the PC and the logon name is probably stored in a file or setting somewhere...
So my question is how I can erase the "last logon" in Business Objects? Where are the logon names stored? In the Windows registry? In a file? In the repository?
This issue is NOT blocking, but the user (a highly placed manager) demands that it gets solved.
All help appreciated...
Daniel

Found it! The last login is stored in the "BOMAINV6.LSI" file on the PC, which is usually in the directory C:\Documents and Settings\WINLOGON\Application Data\Business Objects\Business Objects 6.0\lsi
If you delete the lsi file, then a new file gets created automatically, and the problem disappears....

How to find out which user has the permission to execute startsap ?

Hi All
How do I find out which user has the permission to execute the startsap and stopsap? Do I control the permission on those script using windows standard authorization? For example: only allow certain user have the read and write permission?
Thank you.!
Vincent Lo

Well to me this is really weird question..
<b>noone un-authorized should have access to OS on your system</b>
If this is valid you do not need to solve problems who can and who cannot start/stop SAP, because if you want to prevent some users from shutting down the SAP you have really hard job to do - there are many ways how to kill the SAP (for example killing relevant process from task manager, killing of database, messing with services etc.) - yes, this is harmful way of stopping SAP, but we are talking about attack, right? I would contact some Windows specialist to help you disable all the ways how to harm the running SAP. But still after that - there are many files that can be modified/deleted so SAP will crash after restart - you need to protect them too, etc.
In case you take the first assumption as granted (and you really limit access to this server) you do not need to worry who can stop or start SAP - at the other hand it may be handy to be able to start/stop SAP from other users - for this you can run the stop/start script "under different user".
But to answer the question - to me this is question just of access control (but really never tried that myself):

How to check if a user has a deferred task or not?

Right now, I use getView and then check for the deferred task as below
1)
<Action id='0' application='com.waveset.session.WorkflowServices'>
<Argument name='op' value='getView'/>
<Argument name='type' value='User'/>
<Argument name='id' value='$(accountId)'/>
</Action>
2)
<Transition to='Add Deferred Task'>
<isnull>
<ref>view.accounts[Lighthouse].properties.tasks[Task Name]</ref>
</isnull>
</Transition>
Is there a quicker way to combine both steps 1 and 2 into one step?

Here's my code
<Action id='0' application='com.waveset.session.WorkflowServices'>
<Argument name='op' value='queryObjectNames'/>
<Argument name='type' value='User'/>
<Argument name='single' value='true'/>
<Argument name='attributes'>
<map>
<s>accountId</s>
<ref>accountId</ref>
<s>deferredTaskDate</s>
<s>Task 123</s>
</map>
</Argument>
</Action>
So I'll pass in 2 parameters, the accountId and a task name. I want to see if this user has that particular task name or not.
In the WF trace, I see this
Argument attributes = {accountId=ABC, deferredTaskDate=Task 123}
queryResult is null because it could not find this user even though user ABC exists in IDM and has a deferred task named Task 123.
Is my code wrong and how do I use AttributeCondition in the queryObjectNames above?
