HRFORMS and Printer Outputdevice on User Profile

Hello Everyone,
We are currently running ESS and we have implemented the HRFORMS for the Pay Statement and Time Statement. Currently most of our users have the printer 'LOCL' defined on the user account; however, some users have a very unique printer assigned to their user account (for various job reasons). The problem is that the non 'LOCL' printer is causing the Pay and Time Statement in ESS to appear different (due to the font type/size for the specific printer).
Does anyone know if there is a way to default the ESS Pay and Time Statement to use the printer 'LOCL' regardless of what the user has in their user profile?
Thanks,
Scott

Hi Siddharth,
Thank you for the response and suggestion. I have implemented the BADI which you described; however, the problem I am now facing is that method IF_EX_HRFORM_HRF02~BEFORE_PDF_PRINT is never being called. I searched and found the following post which state that this method is only called if you are using an Adobe Form. Currently I am simply using a customer version of the HRFORM (which is ultimately a smart form). Do you know of any other alternatives?
HRFORM_HRF02 method BEFORE_PDF_PRINT not triggerring

Scott

Output type settings; print pdf from on the printer defined in user profile

Hi
I have a requirement where i should print the pdf form in the printer defined in user profile when i select save in MB1A transaction; I know this can be done by changing the output type cofiguratioin in the NACE transaction
Could any one please let me know step by step process on how to make changes in the nace transaction to print the form in the printer defined in user profile
Right now we are using a custom output type i tried changing the print parameter to 'S' and followed the sap documentation
in the sap help doc at last it says to check the table TNADR for the entries
but when i saw the table TNADR i couldnt find any entries related to ME application
It would be great if any one can explain in details regarding the changes in output type configuration , TNADR table and related stuff
thanks

Hi,
Just maintain the condition records in NACE transaction.
Just follow the steps...
1.Goto NACE transaction
2.Select the application for example for sales order 'V1' and then click on 'Condidtion Record' button
3.Double click on your Zoutput type.
4.U will may get radio button dialogbox/key combination.select anyone and click on ok button
5.U can see a selection screen..Fill all the filed/fileds.
6.Click on F8
7.A tabular control appers..fill it. select the mediem as 1(print output).U can see a 'communication' button over there..click on it.
8.Maintain ur own printer settings and click on SAVE button..
Actuallly Condition records contain the actual data against which the business rules are checked to propose an output. Using condition records, we can define Output types, transmission medium for the document type. So that we need not to give all the output parameters every time the document is to be printed. We use the condition records for automatic printing of Invoices when we save it.
It maintains a key combination to process the output automatically whenever a system finds the entry/entries with that key combination. We maintain the values in the condition records only.
Hope it is useful...

Can I sysprep a system and keep all the user profiles?

Hi All,
I'm creating a Windows 7 image that I would like to have 4 user profiles in addition to the administrator one. Each computer is a standalone (public use) computer and uses a specific user account/profile depending on how the computer
will be used. When I sysprep the image and deploy it with connecting to the Deployment WorkBench the user accounts are still there but the changes to the desktops are gone. Is there I setting I can use to stop this. I understand the CopyProfile
option creates a default profile I really do want 4 separate desktops to make deployment easier. It worked great for XP.

1. This is by design and sysprep does not allow to tune its behaviour. Sysprepping W XP and W 7 is quite different.
2. copyprofile parameter has only one purpose - to copy administrator profile to default profile and adapt permissions appropriately.
3. I would reconfigure installation with script, or better by GPO in AD.

Load a PDF and Print it Without User Seeing the PDF

I have a client who has a need to allow users via a web browser to print PDFs wihtout gaining direct access to them. Ignoring all the flaws in this logic , I am new to Flex and am having difficulty determining if this is possible. So, here are the details:
1) This is a web browser application.
2) The files reside on a server.
3) The user will view a list of available PDF files in their browser.
4) There will be a print icon next to each one.
5) When they click on the print icon we need to pull in the PDF from the server and initiate a print, all without the user seeing the PDF. So once they click the print icon the next thing they see is thier browser's print dialog box.
I have 1-4 done, I just need help with the most important one, #5.
So, can Flex (without AIR) load a PDF in without displaying it and print it?
I am using Flash Builder 4.6, if it matters.
Thanks in advance for any input.

Well, that's going to be difficult. Before everything else, a silent printing in general, is not what Browser is all about. A print dialog is thrown by the browser when a user selects a print option. Same thing if an application is trying to print using built into it conventional methods of printing - you get Print dialog. It gets even harder if you want to print PDF files silently. You will need to make sure that a file is available to print in case it's generated on the fly. The following code will print your PDF without dialogs to a selected (var printer) printer:
var WshShell = new ActiveXObject("WScript.Shell");
var fs = new ActiveXObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject");
var fi = "AcroRd32.exe /N /T " + '"c:\\temp\\' + "filename" + '" ' + printer;
WshShell.Run(fi, 0, false);
As you notice, the file is on the local system. Or you can try printing over the network.
This code will be a part of a JS function in your html wrapper. You will call this function from Flex using ExternalInterface.
AcroRd32.exe is an Adobe free PDF reader. I would suggest starting from the end - have a file on the local system and working on everything esle.

Dynamically generating and printing output from user input on pdf form

Hi Everyone,
I am consider the purchase of of Designer with the hopes of doing something really simple (and hopefully in a simple way)
I would like to present the user with a form which they will fill out. On clicking a "submit button", I would like to generate a letter and have it print out based on the information provided in this form (note, the user doesn't ever really even need to see the letter).
Would Designer be able to do something like this? I have been messing around with the trial version, so I am somewhat familiar with the scrip language. For instance, I am at the point where I would be able to get all the information, and generate the letter in HTML stored in a string object. But I wouldn't know what to do with this string to render and print it.
Thanks!
- Dave

I have just downloaded the trial version of Acrobat 7. It appears that if you want to create a new form, it pretty much brings you to Designer... which is really fine by me.
I appreciate everyone telling me that it is doable, I'm still left with the problem of what I should actually do to do it! =)

SharePoint 2010; Re-using profile and social database in User profile service applicaiton

Hi
Using ms server 2008r2, sql 2008r2, 2 WFE and 1 Appserver and SQL cluster.
I have restored my User profile service application using restored databases profileDB and SocialDB, the SyncDB was recreated as i had problems starting the user profile synchronization service when using the old SyncDB.
I mangaged to create and start a full conections sync to Active Directory and got all my 6000 profiles inn. Ok.
This morning I noticed that the number of user profiles was only 2000, so im wondering what could have happened..
I did notice that the user sync was very slow yesterday.
ps; I did not think/know about exporting the Microsoft Identity Integration Server Key (MIIS) encryption key earlier,
so i dont have this key. That is probably why the backuped old synchDB did not work.
Any ideas?

http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/gg576965(v=office.14).aspx Under
" Back up a User Profile Service service application (UPA) using SQL Server tools " :
It is very important to export the "Microsoft Identity Integration Server Key (MIIS) encryption key" from the old environment to the new farm, when restoring the UPA to a new farm. The reason being is that you will be unable to start the UPA synchronization
service with the restored SynchDB without importing this key. And if you only use the restored SocialDB and ProfileDB with a new SynchDB, you will experience problems with losing Profiles in your UPA.
My initial sync gave me all 6000 users, while this morning I suddenly had 2700:-).
My problem is that we deleted the old servers and I don’t have this key:P

My husband and I both have user profiles on our MacBook Pro. When he is signed on with his profile, he can see my gmail contents from his email account mixed with his email. How do we separate our profiles?

Why can he see my email but I cannot see his? And how do I remove my email account from his profile?

Does this mean you have to seperate accounts set up, and use fast user switching to get into your own user account?

Aperture, Display and Printer Color Match/Profile Calibration ?

I need to calibrate my HP Photosmart Plus B209a-m Printer to match what I see on my Acer X223w 22 inch display when using Aperture 3 and Photoshop CS5
The colors are pretty close to matching but each photo I print comes out deeper in color ( shadows and highlights are off )
I have the Acer display Color Profile set to Adobe RGB 1998, All photos shot with my Nikon D5000 in RAW format and Color Profile Adobe RGB 1998,
Aperture 3.03 Proofing Profile Adobe RGB 1998 and when I print a photo I set HP Color Matching / ColorSync to Adobe RGB 1998
I've been using Canon Photo Paper Plus Glossy II PP-201 for prints but can't find a profile for it to add to my HP Printer.
If I did find a profile how would I install it so it would show up in the drop down list of paper types ?

Well I'm pretty amazed that the prints are just slightly off, with all the things you're doing wrong in color management.
First off, you don't seem to know the difference between a device profile and a working space (i.e. 'synthetic' profiles), since you assigned AdobeRGB to both your monitor and printer. You should profile your printer and display with special hardware, like the X-Rite Colormunki. This will generate a profile, that will translate how color should look theoretically (by the assigned working space e.g. AdobeRGB), to how they will look on the hardware.
Secondly, RAW-images do not have a color profile! The setting in the camera only applies to in-camera JPEGs. RAW files only contain the voltages the CCD measured, this has to be translated into in image later.
Thirdly, softproofing in AdobeRGB almost never makes any sense. It doesn't make any sense if your are softproofing in AdobeRGB if you want to match screen to print. Your softproofing profile should be the profile that is specific for your printer and paper combination. The only synthetic profile that makes sense to softproof to is sRGB, since that is the colorspace used on the web. And even that is disputable since 99.9% of web user do not have a calibrated/profiled monitor.
Fourthly, Adding a color profile will not add a paper type to the drop down list in the printer driver. These are hard-coded in the printer driver and basically determine the amount of ink being placed on the paper.
So I'd suggest at this point to fetch yourself a copy of 'Real World Color Management' by Bruce Fraser (ISBN 9780321267221) and read it from the front to the back before you again embark on the path of color management.

UPRE to replicate User Profiles and Managed Metadata to High Availability backup farm

I'm working on a HA project, and have been tasked with replicating our User Profiles and Metadata to a newly created farm. I'll call the current production farm FarmA and the new HA farm FarmB. I've installed SharePoint2010AdministrationToolkit on FarmB,
and used SPDiag to generate my first report on FarmB.
We're not using MySites.
I'm looking at
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/jj891109(v=office.15).aspx and have some questions. Anything I do on FarmA will be done thought a Change Control, and I want to be able to answer questions intelligently.
Does SharePoint2010AdministrationToolkit and UPRE have to be installed on FarmA and FarmB?
Does enabling DTC create any security concern? Or performance hit? I haven't done this before.
Any documented risks with using the replicator?
Are scheduled replications typically 1 weekly full with nightly incrementals?
Anything the replication won't copy over to FarmB? Like Synchronization Connections, or additional/custom fields?
How are GUIDs handled?
Sorry to pack 6 questions into one post ;)
Thanks,
Scott

To answer the first question this is what MS says: The User Profile Replication Engine can be installed on any computer that has access to the source User Profile service application and destination User Profile service application. However, we recommend
that you install the User Profile Replication Engine on a computer that is part of the source farm or on a computer that is connected to the subnet of the source domain. The User Profile Replication Engine uses the SharePoint Server 2010 User Profile and User
Profile Change Log to read and write data between user profile stores. http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc663011(v=office.15).aspx And to answer 4th question its true but full sync will only be required initially and only when there is org changes
most of the time its incremental. To my knowledge FULL replication will bring all the details but not sure though.

Lost User profile, permission changes and screwed up Time Machine.

Hello.
I have had a pretty nasty 24 hours as my 6 week old MacBook Pro went down yesterday and I nearly lost everything.
My mac had gone to sleep while I was eating my christmas dinner and for some reason I had to hard restart a couple of hours later as it wouldn't respond. When it came to the log-in screen, my admin user account had disappeared so I logged in to my wife's admin profile and could see my user profile was still there under 'users' with the rest of the accounts. All permissions had been changed and I was locked out of everything.
I then proceeded to repair permissions and then boot from the Leopard DVD disc and nothing was happening to bring my user back. I couldn't add another admin user as it was reporting my hard drive as 0k available and not enough space to proceed.
I then found out that my Time Machine backups were screwed as well but I could still see the data (thank god) and have just re-installed Leopard, hesitantly, and manually transferred data (photos, work, etc) from the Time Machine external hd.
Has anyone experienced any of this behaviour with their machines? Should I be concerned because I have no faith in 10.5 at the moment after this.
The last thing I installed was the security update released mid-December.
Can anyone shine any light on what might have gone wrong?
Kind regards.
Damian.

High Availability, User Profiles, and UPRE

I'm setting up High Availability using Metalogix Replicator to mirror the Content DBs. There's a Primary (current production SP2010 environment) and a Secondary environment. Both consist of a WFE, SQL, and APP server.
User Profiles are set up on both. I created the Secondary environments by copying Profile, Social, and Synch DBs from the Primary SQL server, and creating the UP using the same DB names.
Since then, we have created new Audiences and new User Profile settings.
So the two choices are:
1. Manually update both environments.
2. Use UPRE to keep them synchronized. I've looked over
https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc663011(v=office.14).aspx and it seems like a good solution.
I'm not sure whether to use synchronous or asynchronous. I was also wondering if anyone has experience with setting this up, and if there's any chance that I'll mess up my current Primary User Profile service/synch by using UPRE.
Has anyone been down this road? Is this what I'm looking for?
Thanks,
Scott

> I'm setting up High Availability using Metalogix Replicator to mirror the Content DBs
Wouldn't recommend it. It makes schema changes to the databases and is completely unsupported by Microsoft.
UPRE would be appropriate.

You cna do this with the security options in the PDF file itself, which you can set with Adobe Acrobat, assuming you have access to the security options in the first place.

How can i start a new user profile service in ordre to replace an old one ?

hi
i create a new user profile service in ordre to replace an old one
when i use : Get-SPServiceApplication i can see that hi is created but
when i use Get-SPServiceInstance i can see it i can see only the old one

Hi,
The Get-SPServiceInstance returns the services instance for a specific server or the entire farm. The service instance GUID is unique to every farm and cannot be changed.
For starting a fresh with the User Profile Service configuration, you can unprovision and re-provision the User Profile Service:

App-V 5.0 SP2 RDS Client with hotfix 2 breaks frequently on Windows 2012R2 with User Profile Disks enabled

Hi All,
I am at my wit's end trying to troubleshoot this, so any help would be greatly appreciated.
We are having serious stability issues with App-V 5.0 SP2 RDS in our environment with User Profile Disks enabled.
We have applied the latest hotfix but the issues persist.
The main problems are:
1. Periodically the client seems to become corrupted and all applications stop working for all users. All applications including the official Microsoft Office 2013 ones - not just our packages.
The symptoms are the same as if I change the App-V Client Service account to run under a user account instead of SYSTEM, so it suggests a file access issue. The log files also hint at this, and one of there errors is similar to this:
The virtual application 'C:\Users\rds.user9\AppData\Local\Microsoft\AppV\Client\Integration\A3EF9C01-C0E9-4AC5-B21F-DB9B1D2F700C\Root\Mindjet\MindManager 14\MindManager.exe' could not be started because the
App-V Subsystem 'Virtual Filesystem' could not be initialized. {error: 0x6740090A-0x20003}
Once this problem occurs the only way I have found to fix it is to either completely remove and reinstall the client, or (perhaps this is the big clue) rename the registry key HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\AppV\MAV\Configuration\Volumes , unpublish
an application, then republish said application.
I don't even think it matters which application gets published. The point seems to be that this 'Volumes' key gets rewritten.
I am highly suspicious that our issues are caused by User Profile disks in our RDS environment, as when I disable them on our staging collection all of these issues seem to disappear.
I have made sure all of the servers have permissions on the share (folder and share permissions). It doesn't seem to make a difference.
2. Some application fail completely with User Profile Disks enabled. If we switch the setting from "Store all settings and data on the user profile disk" to "Store Only the following folders" there seems to be some improvement,
in that at least one application that fails on the other setting starts to work.
3. We have already set that NTFS 8 dot 3 reg fix some time ago.
SOS!
We have gone live this week (not my call) and this is having disasterous consequences. :(
Thanks in advance,
John

Hi,
Thanks for your response.
I did try this a while ago without success, although it may be worth revisiting with SP2 applied.
I have left this client now.
I left them a Powershell script that deletes HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\AppV\MAV\Configuration\Volumes
and triggers an Unpublish/Publish of an application we have deployed to all of the servers.
This seems to work, but a fix would be better than a workaround.
Not really my problem now though - I did my best.
Thanks,
John

NAC and AD, Machine GPOs, Roaming Profiles = Chaos

I've just observed a hapless Cisco consultant try to make NAC 4.1 work on computers with machine GPOs, roaming profiles, logon scripts within user GPOs, and for that matter legacy logon scripts with "run logon scripts synchronously" enabled. All of these technologies seem to fail on a NAC-enforced connection.
We assign software on machine GPOs and we use roaming user profiles, and it seems we either need to have a domain controller and profile share on the isolation VLAN, which defeats the purpose of NAC, or perform some kind of machine authentication, which can occur before GPO processing and net logons can happen.
While I'm not the Cisco consultant, it wasn't hard to recognize this problem.
Everything I've read about NAC and CAA suggests this is a per-user compliance solution and not a per-machine solution. Surely others have observed this, and I think this is what machine authentication (802.1x) NAC, as opposed to user authentication NAC, is all about. At the risk of sounding like a total n00b, where can I start researching a NAC solution that supports what I want and lets us use the Cisco NAC gear we've already invested in?

I have had similar issues and have solved many with a custom script that runs at log on. It is a compiled script and works great, AutoIT3.
The policy part takes care of itself if you leave machines logged in long enough or do a gpupdate /force. This will force the group policy to synchronize but you will need to log off and on again.
The roaming profile is much tougher. I am still trying to get this working. If anyone has any info on EXACTLY what takes place on a roaming profile synchronization, I would be grateful. If I can I will replicate that process in my script and solve this issue also.
I have fixed the log in script stuff with a delayscript that I use (ironically) clean access to install. You have to launch it with the users credentials, though and not from Clean Access which uses the SYSTEM users credentials in its stub agent!
This is a known issue to Cisco but any prodding of them to get it working would help. Their solution is braindead, just give unremediated machines full access! If they fail remediation, kick them off then. Gee, that gives the unremediated machine a mere two to three minutes to attack your AD DCs on each log in attempt. Not good.
Anyway, that's where I am at. Most of this can be dealt with, some is still problematical.
