Limit user selection on Managed Metadata?

Hi all,
Is there an OOTB solution on limiting users view on Managed Metadata column?
For example, I have Group A and Group B. And the metadata is like so:
MyTermStore
-> Group A
-> Term A1
-> Group B
-> Term B1
-> Group C
-> Term C1
Group A can see "Group A" and "Group C". Group B can see "Group B" and "Group C".
Based on what I researched there is no OOTB way to do it currently. I would just like to confirm it? The only alternative I see is maybe custom development.
Thank you!

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.

Sorting of TermSets in Managed Metadata

Anyone,
I need to sort my Term sets numerically.
I'm using code to render them to a JQuery Treeview.
foreach (TermSet item in termgroup.TermSets)
..... build them here.....
M Sariman RKO Business Solutions Inc.

Hi Mohamad Sariman,
I don't see a way to sort the terms as they were numeric.
But you can :
Modify the numbers to make then be sortered the way you want. For example rename "2. Corres..." in "02. Corres...".
Or fix the sort order in the SharePoint user interface:
Go to the site where you want to custom sort terms (if you are updating a local term set).
On the Site Actions menu, click Site Settings.
Under Site Administration, click Term Store management.
In the Properties pane, select the Managed Metadata Service application you want, if it is not already selected.
In the tree view pane on the left, expand the groups to find the term set that you want, and then select the term set.
In the pane on the right, click the Custom Sort tab.
Under Custom Sort Order, select Use custom sort order.
Click the arrows in the boxes next to the terms to reorder the terms in the sequence that you want.
Click Save.

One thing i noticed is when i give users full access or designer access to site they will be able to see the navigation. but i don't want to give users full access or designer access to the site.
How can users with read only access to site can view Managed Metadata Navigation...Please help?

Hi Sunil,
Have you given your users permissions to actually read the MMS data from the service application?
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ff625176.aspx covers permissions on the MMS.

SharePoint 2010 Slide Library Unable To Select Managed Metadata When Publishing.

Hello,
I'm running into some problems with Managed Metadata when uploading (publishing) slides in a SharePoint 2010 Slide Library. If I have Managed Metadata Site Columns that are set to be required in my slide library, and I publish my slide(s) into the
SharePoint 2010 Slide Library I'm not prompted to enter in my required Metadata before the slide is published. The slide will upload, but then I would need to edit the slide and then enter in the required Metadata.
If I create a new column with a type set to Choice for example, and set it to be required and I upload (publish) a slide I'm now prompted to enter in the required Metadata, but all the Managed Metadata choices are grayed out and I'm unable to select anything.
I'm able to select a Choice for the new column.
Is this a bug within SharePoint 2010 that does not allow me to enter in Required Managed Metadata Tags on uploading (publishing) slides?
Regular document libraries work just fine with required Managed Metadata.
Thanks for any assistance.

Hi,
According to your post, my understanding is that the Managed Metadata not prompted to enter value in the required metadata.
I had tested with this issue, and I found the same issue.
We will help to submit the issue to proper pipeline for you.
Again, thank you for your report which will definitely make SharePoint a better products. There might be some time delay.
Appreciate your time and patience.

Managed Metadata Navigation not showing to users

I created a Managed Metadata service and created group, term-set and terms
I gave full access to application pool service account. read access to all the users via AD Security Group.
I set up navigation to use Managed Navigation (Managed Metadata Service).
I am logged-in as farm admin and able to view the navigation when i browse site. But user are not seeing navigation.
i went to the hidden taxonomy list and gave read access to all users. but this didn't help.
One thing i noticed is when i give users full access or designer access to site they will be able to see the navigation. but i don't want to give all users full access or designer access to the site.
Am i missing anything here? Please help!!!!

Hi prakasnh,
According to your description, you have created a Managed Metadata service and created group, term-set and terms, but the users who have read access, were not seeing the navigation.
How did you grant the read access to the users? By a group or directly?
For resolving your issue, please add the users to the site Visitor group, and compare the result.

Limit users to execute "SELECT" statemes only from SQL Developer

Hi:
Is there a way to control what SQL command can be executed from SQL Developer?
I am trying to limit users to execute "SELECT" statements only from SQL Developer.
I believe SQL*Plus used to have the product profile where I can control what SQL command can be executed from what user.
Thanks in advance.

There's nothing special in sqldev to enforce privileges, the database does all that already. See the database documentation on the GRANT and REVOKE statements. Basically, you would only want to grant SELECT privileges to your users...
Have fun,

User Profile Application and Managed Metadata services are missing

Running SharePoint 2013 servers on a set of 2012 R2 Servers. One of our farm administrators deleted the Secure Store service account. They recreated the Secure Store account, but after doing so, the Managed Metadata Service and User Profile Service
are now unavailable.
When going to the User Profile Page, there is an error that says "Sorry, something went wrong."
When going to the Metadata page, there is an error that says "The Managed Metadata Service or Connection is currently not available."
There is an additional error that says "The Security Token Service is not available."
How can all three services be brought back online?

That specific event log error is as follows:

MapViewer: how to manage user selections in business components Java class

Hi list,
I'm a GIS developer with experience on Mapserver and Mapguide. Buit I'm totally new on Oracle Mapviewer and I'm doing a feasibility study on a project where I basically have a very simple GIS use case, but I don't know if it is possible to manage by use Oracle ADF Java API and Oracle Mapviewer.
I would like to use JDeveloper / ADF Business Components / ADF Faces.
This is the use case:
- Mapviewer should display a polygon layer from Oracle Spatial
- Mapviewer should display a polygon layer from WFS
- User should be able to select a polygon on Oracle Spatial layer and another polygon in WFS layer
- ADF Face map control should:
a) hilglight these two polygon
b) execute my buiseness component Java function passing the user selection (id?... coordinates?... or anything useful to get these two polygons in the business Java function) as parameter.
Is it possible?...
Any suggestions (or samples) for point b)?...
Thanks in advance for any help

Hi Arnd,
Thanks for answer.
Can you adreess me to some ADF project that include ADF Geographic Map control?
I've carefully studied what explained in manuls contained in JDeveloper Help. I've made something, but I have some issue I can't solve.
Here you are in details what I've made:
1) I've installed Mapviewer Quick Starter Kit
2) I've configured themes and base map by use on MapBuilder
3) I've built an ADF application with separated business and model-view-controller projects
4) I've created entities and views in ADF business project
5) I've created a JSF page in model-view-controller project
6) I've put inside page an ADF Geographic Map assigning my base map and his related toolbar.
Up to now it worked fine. My problems started at this point, on the attempt to add themes to be exposed to user interaction.
PROBLEM 1
I've seen that there are basically two options to add theme for user interaction:
a) add a predefined themes
b) add a color/point/graph bindable themes
Option b) seems not fit for my needs.
Color theme is only for regions and forces me to set a range of colors (I want to set exatctly two different color for two different table attribute value).
Lines seem not covered from any of them.
So the solution should be option a), predefined themes. But predefined theme seems not selectable and I don't know how to attach a selection listener.
Please note (about selection listener) that in JDeveloper Help, book "Web User Intercace Developer Guide", "Using ADF Geographic Component" there is a code sample, but the explaination on how to enter the backing bean method is truncated (it says "For example," and stop, nothing else).
My questions are: predefined theme can be selectable? And how can I attach the selection listener?.
PROBLEM 2
Up to now I've made no test on WFS themes, but of course, also these themes should be exposed to user interaction in the same way of predefined layers.
Is it possible?...
PROBLEM 3
Legends activated by ADF Map Toolbar seem not working for predefied themes, they display nothing.
Is it possible to fix or workaround in some way?...
PROBLEM 4
Are there any way to print maps?...
Best regards
Francesco

Managed Metadata selection not appearing in Editform.aspx and DisplayForm.aspx after Managed Metadata column added to library.

Hi,
I added two managed metadata columns into a document library, but they are not appearing when you try to upload, or edit the properties of a document.
In the Managed Metadata service the metadata is 'Available for Tagging' , and I've also looked at the permissions in
http://sitenameLists/TaxonomyHiddenList/AllItems.aspx
As one blog suggested, but this already has read access granted to NT AUTHORITY\Authenticated Users (NT AUTHORITY\authenticated users)
The Connection Permissions in Central Admin, in the Managed Metadata Service Application has Full Access to Term Store granted for the service account that the application pool (Identity) is running under for the web app the site collection
is in.
I've also deleted the whole document library and started over again, but the metadata selectors just don't show up for anyone, even when tried with the farm account.
Any ideas what to investigate next appreciated.
Thanks,
Jonathan

Ok, I think I've worked it out.
It's to do with Content Types, if you add your own custom content type, then delete the default Document content type on a document library, before you add additional Managed Metadata columns to the library, they don't appear in the form. Another
one for the Sharepoint quirks list.

Create User Select Manager shows no users

Hi All,
I am trying to create a new user via the Web Interface as xelsysadm and I can create users just fine but when I try to select a manager nothing shows up in the
search.
11G 11.11.1.3
Thanx

no I have not. this is a basic install with a bunch of users created via either the UI or a trusted recon.
Should there be a certain Role maybe that I am missing? everyone has ALL_USERS but that is probably it.
Thanx.

How to get the values of managed metadata columnn through object model

Hi,
I need to read the values from a managed metadata column, which is set to display entire path.
Eg. My value looks like
Critical:Important:Interesting:Routine:Not Evaluated
without hardcoding these values, can i find which level of child has been chosen.
if its not evaluated, i should find like last child like that..
any way of doing that?
Aruna

Hi,
thanks for the above reply.
i got a new requirement as, following is my managed metadata structure user selects the values from the below structure. i need to find the matching items with another list of same structure. the condition for matching is, if the user selects All,
in the otehr list if the value in the region column equals any of the values in the structure below All like ema, denmark,nordborg is considered to be matched. if the user selects Denmark then the list contains denmark, nordborg and office is matched. means
parent and its child contents are matched if the parent is chose. if the child is chosen only the exact value from other list(office==office in otehr list) is considered to be matched. how can i achieve it through object model coding?

How to Set Individual Managed Metadata Navigation Links to Open in New Window?

I am using a managed metadata term set for the global navigation in my client's site. Most of the global navigation links point to pages in the current site, and should open in the current browser window/tab as the end user is just navigating within the
site content. However, I have one particular node in the navigation term set that points to related content scattered around other external sites. The client wants these links to open a new window.
Unfortunately, I can't seem to set the target for navigation links in the term set. If I was using standard global navigation, I'd be able to select the "Open in new window" checkbox when setting up the link, but that option doesn't appear to be
supported via MMD navigation.
Any clever suggestions?
Thanks!

I had a similarish requirement at a client once upon a time, they wanted any links that went outside of the intranet web applications to open in a new window.
The way we managed that was to use jQuery to overwrite the standard hyperlink references for any hrefs that didn't point to internal sites to use the same javascript functions that SharePoint used for links configured to open in a new window. It worked out
as being about half a dozen lines; check the URL and if it doesn't begin with a set range of options then overwrite the on click behaviour using standard jQuery behaviour.
If you want it site wide then you just add jQuery and the code snippet to the master page, if you just want it in some places then add a CEWP or a HTML form web part to the relevant pages.
