Impact of making an attribute optional or required with respect to profile sync

Hi,
     Is there any dependency for the profile sync between AD and SP on the type of any user profile attribute( Required or Optional). Does it really matter whether any field is required or optional?

Not to the AD Import/export process. As far as I know those values only matter if a user tries to edit their profile and they are missing when the user tries to save their changes.

  • What are the network requirements with respect to latency in Forms?

    Our company is a global provider of online sourcing, procurement and collaboration solutions and services to Engineering, Procurement and Construction (EPC) projects and companies.
    We operate three Internet trading portals with 1000+ buyers & supplier companies around the world.
    The application is:
    - based on Forms 9.0.2
    - use SUN J2SE 1.4.2_0X on the client side
    - runs on the public Internet using SSL
    - hosted in Norway
    Some companies reports about bad response times and the users claims that our application runs slow. The application do not run slowly, it is very responsive - however it requires a good network connection. Upon request from our customer base I need to know what is the requirements for the network in order to achive an acceptable user experience?:
    - Maximum lantency
    - Minimum bandwith
    What where the design requirements Oracle set forth when developing Forms?
    There can be a lot of "latency" generating network equipment in the path between the user and our server farm: switches, routers, proxy servers, chaching servers, firewalls, packet shapers, QoS, etc. One customer have all of these goodies and our users in that company do not have fun with the Forms application! However, they do not belive that there is something wrong with the network because normal HTML based sites works OK!
    In order to help these customers I need (URGENTLY) to know what the network requirments are?

    Its difficult to answer since the limits on latency will be governed by the user expectiation....
    For example, a financail trading application which has fast data entry may see a latency of .7 second as not acceptable but this would be fine for an HR application.
    The thing is that a user action, such as navigation between fields, wil generate a round trip to the application server to check for triggers (regardless if there is a trigger to file or not). Its this behaviour that gives Forms is very rich productive interface.
    To compare with HTML is not reasonable since HTML can't do all these things like instant validation, masterdetail coordication, scrolling etc that Forms can do...
    Its like complaining that your Sports car uses more petrol that your 50cc moped!!! ;o) It uses more petrol because its doing so much more.... Ok, I digress but you get the idea.
    Forms will require a certain level of network performance. the figures for that performance will depend on user expectation/scenarios, the type of application and the way it is written (a badly written Forms application can still run slow even on a fast network).
    Using network tools you can work out the latency (ping) from client to server. If this result comes out a figure which is not acceptable then no amount of tweeking of Forms will get it to run faster...You either need to upgrade the network to improve this; or change the style of application (e.g. to and HTML application) which will only ping the server on a POST/GET request but you lose a huge amount of functionality...and you need to ask your end users if they can live with that.
    Hope that helps.

  • Adobe Media Server pro 5 Scalabiltiy Requirements with respect to the number of clients connected

    what are the hardware requirements mapped to the number of clients connected to a vritual server running on a Windows 2008 R2 Server? At what point should the scaling be done, what are the best practices? The encoding rate used is 360 Kbps.

    Hi Simon
    The HTTP (HDS and HLS) streaming and recording limit in Adobe Media Server 5 Starter is 10 min. You'll need to buy a serial key if you want to record/stream for longer. Also there are no limit on number of clients for HTTP.
    Hope this helps.

  • Optional & not required Fields in webservice

    Hi All,
    I have published my webservice as orchestration,
    Everything is good till now,
    But user wants a couple of fields as optional & not required (the process should not break if the fields are not present in request xml),
    so,i made that element name to nillable to true & minoccurs to 0, as shown
    But in wsdl it creates minoccurs=1, not sure why it sets minoccurs=1, when the published schema has minoccurs=0 !!
    the following is the wsdl screenshot.
    Please let me know what can i do for making the fields optional & not required.
    thanks,
    Sarva.

    First we will have to understand the issue.
    Yes, this is an issue with BizTalk Web publishing wizard. But if you actual see it in practical terms, it’s not much of an issue. May be in some cases this could really cause
    an issue when client just use WSDL.
    The MSND URL which Rachit has shared may out of date. Because as mentioned in the MSDN blog ““If
    you publish a schema that contains minOccurs or maxOccurs attributes
    with specific values, these values may be different in schema exposed by the published Web service” – No. It’s not the exposed schema which will have different values
    for minOccurs or maxOccurs attributes,
    its only for the WSDL file which will have different values. If you
    actually see the schema from the virtual directory, this will correct minOccurs or maxOccurs attributes. This is why when anyone who access/consume the web service by WSDL, will
    also need to use schema while consuming. WSDL shall be used to access the operation name and data type (Schema) references whereas the actual definition for the data elements are accessed from schema.

  • EQ Templates & Supplier Initiated eQs:  Optional versus Required

    We are on v6.1.1.1 and have setup our Material Spec eQ with Spec Name and Ingredient Statement as required.  There is no selection for shelf life to be required or optional so that it is not rendered on the eQ.  The white paper on Supplier Initiated eQs states that all data, by default confiugration, is set to optional when the supplier initiates the eQ.  Supplier are currently getting unhandled exception error messages when the supplier submits a change on Supplier Portal.  The eQ is never rendered or emails send with the unique link.  We are wondering if the eQ template needs to have all fields selected as optional in order to render in supplier portal properly.  The documention on Admin, eQ User Guide, and Supplier Portal are all silent on this question.  Only the white paper, written before v6.1, mentions anything about optional versus required.  The specific questions are:
    1.  Does the eQ template require that all fields be selected as optional in order to work properly for Supplier Iniated eQs?
    2.  Does the supplier create tag that allows row selection in custom sections (we have added these to all of our custom sections and they are in our template) have any impact to the Supplier experience with Supplier Initiated eQs?
    Thank you for your time.
    Best, BeckieC

    This sounds like a bug, suppliers should be able to initiate eQs regardless of what options are selected on the template.   Go ahead and submit an SR so support can investigate.
    To answer your other questions:
    1.  Does the eQ template require that all fields be selected as optional in order to work properly for Supplier Iniated eQs?
    No, if the data is on the spec it will be included in the questionnaire.  Whether spec data is marked as optional or required for the supplier is decided by this config: <add key="EQ.SupplierInitiatedQuestionaire.EQItem.RequireSpecContents.Enabled" value="false"/>   Data that isn't controlled by the spec, like whether a supplier can create a breakdown, is controlled by the eQ template.
    You can also add additional attributes to the template and they should be included in the questionnaire.  For example, lets say the spec has custom A, B, and C and the eQ template has custom section D.   A, B, C and D should appear on the questionnaire they initiate.  Another use case could be an allergen.   Lets say your specs has 12 allergens declared but allergen A is now required to be declared.  You would add allergen A to your template and it should be included with the specification data for the supplier to respond to.  Page 6 of the white paper discusses each field and where the data comes from.  
    2.  Does the supplier create tag that allows row selection in custom sections (we have added these to all of our custom sections and they are in our template) have any impact to the Supplier experience with Supplier Initiated eQs?
    It shouldn't have a negative impact.   If the section that they have create ability for is on the spec or template it should be included in the initiated questionnaire and the supplier be able to add custom section structure.

  • PROPOSE botton in the Attributes option Bidding Engine SRM 5.0

    Hi all,
    When a purchaser processes a bid invitation there is an option called Attributes.
    When the purchaser click into the Attributes option there are several bottons activated: Propose, Create and Start Search.
    Does anybody know the difference between PROPOSE and START SEARCH? If for example I select a Product Category and I press on Start Search several attributes are displayed. So, I don't understand the difference between these two buttons.
    Thanks in advanced,
    Mar

    Hello Mar,
    The main difference is that the
    PROPOSE take the information of product category from Basic Data tab in bid invitation, and with SEARCH button you can assign any attribute to your document, finally with CREATE button you can write your own attribute for this document.  
    In other words you can simplify to the purchaser work, Defining groups and Assigning Groups to Product Categories in configuration, when a bid invitation is created with product category, you can assign an attribute.

  • HT1918 i have just made my apple id.i have made this for itunes.after making my account i have problen with the review payment information as i do not use any credit cards and there is no option like NONE in review payment information. what should i do no

    i have just made my apple id. i have made this for itunes. after making my account i have problem with the review payment information as i do not use any credit cards and there is no option like NONE in review payment information. what should i do now? to proceed further? plz help me!

    How did you create the account ? If you followed the instructions on this page when creating it then you should have got the 'none' option : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2534
    e.g. on a computer's iTunes, if currently signed into an account then you logged out of it, and you then found a free app in the store and clicked on its free 'price' :
    And then clicked on 'create Apple id' on the popup :
    When I tried that process to create an account a few days ago I got the 'none' option on the payment details screen.
    If you didn't use that process then you will need to create a new account using it (the instructions won't work with an existing account).

  • Help required with (soundcard) connection / settings, thanks in advan

    Help required with connection / settings between a Creative Sound Blaster Audigy Platinum EX (soundcard) and a Creative DTT3500 Digital (5. speakers).
    The problem
    No sound from any of the speakers. (Exception can plug in headphones at front)
    Background
    My computer has been recently upgraded at my local computer shop and all programs re-installed (including driver update from Creative's website). However after reconnecting speakers and restoring the original settings I?m getting no sound from any of the speakers. I?ve followed all the available advice/instructions I can find on this website and manuals to no avail.
    Set-up
    Physical
    (Digital DIN) Speakers/decoder amplifier (DTT3500) connected to the (digital out) soundcard (Audigy Platinum EX) using minijack to DIN cable. (As per instruction manual)
    Software
    Creative Audio Consul ? setting as per instructions, however have tried variations in vain. (Note: above tabs there is a select device box with SB Audigy [A0000] in it ? only option. Just wondering what [A0000] means?)
    Your advice please. A simple step by step guide would be appreciated, many thanks in advance, Jon

    "My computer has been recently upgraded at my local computer shop and all programs re-installed (including driver update from Creative's website). "
    Do you have the original installation disk?
    If so, try installing THOSE drivers, ESPECIALLY if it worked before. Be sure to uninstall what is there now, first.
    Its natural for most people to want the 'latest' drivers for their hardware. However:
    After experiencing some difficulties with some CL 'updates' for certain products, I now avoid them UNLESS I am having a PROBLEM with the existing drivers.

  • Pass select option and parameter with submit

    Hello,
    I have two programs and what i have to do is to use the selection screen information from program A and submit it to program B so that this second program will generate a report with this information.
    After program B is executed it creates some files in a server, which i will have to use later in program A. I cannot modify the program B since its not part of the requirement.
    But the thing is that i am having problems when submiting a select option and a parameter together.
    It would be really useful if someone could give some examples of this.
    Example of what i want to do:
    SUBMIT PROGRAM_B
    WITH S_MATNR EQ S_MATNR      ->pass all the values from a select option.
    WITH P_WERKS EQ P_WERKS    ->pass a single value from a parameter.
    AND RETURN
    Regards,
    Roberto

    Hi,
    Try this for select-options:
    SUBMIT PROGRAM_B
    WITH S_MATNR *IN* S_MATNR ->pass all the values from a select option.
    WITH P_WERKS EQ P_WERKS ->pass a single value from a parameter.
    AND RETURN
    Hope it helps.

  • Any option to get the list of Invoice with respect to Sales Area

    Dear All,
    Is there any option to check the list of Invoices with respect to the Sales area.
    Because, in VF05, we are getting the list either for a Payer or a Material.
    I want to see the list of Invoices for a Sales area. I mean, it should be similar to VA05, where we can get the list of Sales Orders even without providing the Customer and Material information.
    Reagrds,

  • How do I access the data saved on my time capsule?  for example, if i try to view my photos it tells me that i have 2.4gb of photos and gives me the option to "view with iPhoto"....but when i click on "view with iPhoto" nothing happens...  thanks!

    how do i access the data stored on my time capsule?  for example, if i try to view a photo, i get the option to "view with iphoto" but when i click on "view with iphoto" nothing happens.  i'm having similar trouble openning up movies, music, etc.  it appears as though the files exist / saved on the time capsule (because i can see how much storage they consume), but i can't open them.  thanks!

    Unfortunately, Apple removed the feature to "browse backups" in Time Machine backups of iPhoto a few years ago.
    You have to restore the entire iPhoto library to a separate location to be able to "see" it, and then choose the specific images that you want use.
    For complete details, see #15 in Pondini's excellent support document Time Machine -- FAQ.  Check the information in the pink box there.

    After updating iTunes this week Windows 8 recognizes the iPod but does not offer an option to open with iTunes. iTunes does not recognize iPod Touch. Have followed all the steps but without success. Is there a solution with iTunes?

    I followed all the instructions on the suggested page. Many files in C:\Program Files\Common Files\Apple\ and C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Apple\ could not be deleted. Message said ""Cannot delete files: It is being used by another person or program"' but could not find iPodService.exe in task manager (also, the "Cannont delete ... " did not mention iPodService.exe).
    Deleted all that I could. Reinstalled iTunes. Still same result. iTunes and computer both recognize my old iPod. Only the computer recognizes iPod Touch.

    I'm also affected by this bug in exactly the same way as you.
    Some users have had success by closing iTunes, enetering (on OS 10.9) settings --> network --> edit locations, then create a new location with the same wifi/network settings. Then restarting iTunes.
    Others have had some success by editing settings --> iCloud --> de-selecting keychain
    neither of these fixes have worked for me.
    It appears that the iPad can "see" iTunes running on my iMac because when I open settings --> general --> 'iTunes wifi sync', "sync now" is greyed out if iTunes is not running. When iTunes is started, "sync now" is enabled but just doesn't work. Nor does the iPad appear in iTunes.
