Minimum permissions to allow an end-user to create linked reports?

User has Browser and Content Manager permissions at the SSRS folder level. I'm finding I have to add them to the SCDW_Administrators role before they can create/save Linked Reports - seems excessive, so looking to see if there's a better solution

Hi,
By default, all System Center 2012 – Service Manager users have access to reports through the Reporting workspace. However, before users who do not have administrator permissions can view the Reporting workspace, you must add permissions
through SQL Server Reporting Services (SSRS).

How to Allow the End User to Save a Form

How do I allow an end user to save form after they've filled it out? I understand this can be accomplished using the distribute function where you email the form to people. We don't want to do that. We want to put it on a website and allow them to access it, open it, fill it out, then save a copy to their hard drive (with the data they entered visible). I have searched the forums and cannot seem to find a solution for this. Thanks, in advance!

Hi Kyle. Thank you for the reply. I do have Acrobat Pro, so I will try that. To make sure I understand correctly, the form has to be create in LiveCycle Developer, then you have to open it on Acrobat Pro and set the permissions?

How to limit end user from creating grid

Can I limit the end user's ability of creating new grids? What is the best practice for managing grids?
Thanks!

The best practice is to allow end user to create and save their own grids. There is no need to limit users from a potentially useful feature. If you have grids which you don't want users to change, assign a class to those grids which they should change, and give them View access to that class.
If you still don't want users to save their own grids, you might try giving them View access to the [Default] class, though any user smart enough to assign a class to the grid for which the user has All access to can still save the grid. Such users should be recruited to the application administration team and given a raise :-)

How to prevent end user to create a Query View and save back to BW Server?

Dear All :
Do Someone know that how to setup authorization for Bex Query View Creation? We want to prevent end user to create a Query View to save back to BW Server his favorite folder. when our user run Bex Query, he can base on this query and use Bex Analyzer's save function to save a Query View and save into his favorite folder.
My question is :
1. Can we set up a Authorization to prevent end user to save Bex Query View?
2. Or can I remove Save function from Bex Analyzer to prevent end user use save function, But Developer should not to be prevent .
Thanks for all of your kindly response.
Best Regard
Lawrence Kuo

Hi.
Yes, you can do it like you outline in your point 1):
You need to use the authorization object S_RS_COMP for this. This object let's you control what parts/components of a query the user can do stuff to. So, in your case, you need to have a role for the users, where you do not grant create-access to the component QVW, and then you need another role for developers, where you grant full access or whatever you need for your developers.
See [this post|http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/go/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/a6c54319-0e01-0010-20a4-fb81ad32f330?QuickLink=events&overridelayout=true&5003637661135] and the [SAP Help entry|http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw70/helpdata/en/80/1a6859e07211d2acb80000e829fbfe/content.htm].
You will also need to use the authorization object S_RS_COMP1. If you already have a productive system with users doing reporting, both objects will be maintained in one of the roles already.
You also want to consider using the object S_RS_PARAM to allow users to create variants for the variabel screen.
Good luck.

Enabling end users to create and upload their own layouts for PDF reports

Using the PDF printing features in APEX 3.x and BI Publisher, you can create professional looking report designs with no programming knowledge, simply by using the built-in wizards of the BI Publisher Word Plug-In, and a little knowledge of how to use MS Word. The nice thing about using the Word Plug-In is that even the end users of your APEX applications could potentially do this. The only problem is, that typically those report layouts are stored under the Shared Components of your application, and end users generally don't have access to the Application Builder, all they typically use is your APEX application. So then why not simply add an interface to your APEX application that lets your end users upload their own layouts and dynamically link them to APEX report queries at runtime? I put together a sample application that demonstrates this technique, you can try it out on apex.oracle.com or download the application and try it on your own APEX instance. Here's the link to my Blog with more information:

My MSSQL Server express 2014 edition x64 and My desktop "Report Builder (RB) 3.0' is 32bit (x86).
Does Report Builder x64 exist? I didn't see anywhere so I downloaded x86 RB

Hi mujb,
Per my understanding you are using the report builder 3.0 to design the report and when you click the query designer button to execute the query you got the error message above, right?
I have tested on my local envornment and your issue can be caused by the user "SQLServer2014\Mubs" and "mujb-HP\mujb" haven't grant permission to the report server or the shared dataeource/dataset if you have used this.
I would like to confirm if you have assigned both the Item-Level and System-Level role of the user above to sucessfully access the report server, If you haven't grant any access to the above user and when you connect to the report server in the report builder,
you may got the error message:
More details information below for your reference:
Please execute the query in the microsoft SQL Server Management Studio to see if you have permission to execute the query.
If the query works fine in step1, please run the report builder as Administrator and if you are using the shared datasource/dataset the issue can be cause by the you haven't grant access the share datasource, Double click to open the Datasource
and click the "Test Connection" as below to test if it can connect successfully:
If the "Test Connection" failed, please click the shared datasource/dataset on Report Server to check if you have grant correct permission.

Restrict User to Create Custom Reports

Hi
Can we restrict a user from creating custom reports in SPM, If yes how? We want that user can does not see the Create New Report Option
Regards
Neel

HI,
If the dashboars and reports for users are already so well defined, wouldn't offline Briefing Books give them the same information?
Also, if ad-hoc reporting and business user empowerment is not what you are looking for, it would also be easy to use SAP BusinessObjects BI tools, such as Xcelsius, on top of SPM data to provide those centrally defined dashboards and reports.
Finally, BW authorizations are very flexible and comprehensive. You can limit a user to a few dimensions on which he can drill down, to certain Key-Figures, to specific levels of the hierarchy. If you don't have such authorizations in place and want to control instead the selections the user can do, then using Xcelsius on top of SPM could give you that possibility.

Allowing end-user to create a user using a form

Hi all,
I'm working on a project whereby I must allow end-users from anywhere to create an account for themselves (Register).
Which table/object should I create a form on to enable users to register.
(APEX 3.1.2)
kind regards
Mel

Hi Mel,
I just set up custom authentication for the last application I developed. The user table is pretty simple and you can easily hash the passwords. I even developed a process where a person can change their own password and the process email them of any such changes. Course, that requires an email address to be a column in the user table.
There is a relatively new Apex book out titled Pro Oracle Application Express. It has a lot of good information concerning custom authentication. It takes you through the whole process, step by step. Also, the book is excellent in itself and definitely worth having. It has a lot of good information in it.

How do I convert a document as a fillable pdf that will allow the end user to save?

When I convert a Word document into a PDF fillable file, the end user cannot save their file. How to I make the file savable for the end user?

Hi TinaEllis,
Is your end user using Reader to fill out the PDF form? If so, the PDF needs to be Reader enabled. Please see Adobe Acrobat X Pro * Enable Reader users to save form data.
Please let us know if you have additional questions.

one of the first things i tried was using a blank image field hoping that acrobat or even better reader would let me put an image into the final form
can it be accomplished (using a livecycle form) in acrobat using code.

End User will build the report by himself by choosing the columns from tabl

We are using Oracle 10g Application server (Forms and Report Services), Forms and Report., our most urgent requirement is End User have to build the required reports by him Like wizards style, (Example Adhoc, MIS reports)., More clear, from the form we want to show all the tables structures, queries, after that end user will choose some columns from the form and specified the condition by himself to run the report after that he will press start button , then automatically report has build for the selected columns from the end user., and this report is parmanent afterwords., he can use any time.
Like this kind of report building is possiable , anyone has faced same situation.

Yes it is.
In BW, this can be achieved by using document management. The option will be available to the user via context menu in the report (goto-->documents - text/pdf/img etc). In your case user can choose to create/change/display a 'text' document, which will be attached to the report.
cheers,

Allowing user to create link to a network file

Is there a way to allow the user of a form to enter the path to a local network file (such as a Word document), so that when others click it, it will take them to the file?
In a thread in another forum, someone posted the following method of create a button containing the following code that converts text entered into a text field into a hyperlink:
if (xfa.host.name != "XFAPresentationAgent")
    var oURI = xfa.resolveNode("form1.page1.header.TextField2").rawValue;
    var oLink = "<body xmlns=\"http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml\" xmlns:xfa=\"http://www.xfa.org/schema/xfa-data/1.0/\"><p style=\"letter-spacing:0in\"><a href=\"" + oURI+ "\" style=\"margin-top:0pt;margin-bottom:0pt;text-valign:bottom;font-fami ly:'Myriad Pro';font-size:8pt\">" + oURI + "</a></p></body>";
    xfa.resolveNode("form1.page1.header.TextField2").value.exData.loadXML (oLink, false, true);
This works great for internet URLs; however, when you enter a local or network path (for example "Y:\Network\File.doc"), you get the following error message in your default browser:
Firefox doesn't know how to open this address, because the protocol (y) isn't associated with any program.
How would you alter this code so that it links to a local or network file, and doesn't try to open it in a web browser? Or, if this isn't possible, is there any other way to allow the user to create a clickable link to a file?
Thanks,
Jo

I've never tried it and there may be alternative ways of doing it, but I would think the only way you can provide formatting tools - without recreating each tool - is to use an Applet.
What you're trying to do is create a document object on the server, have the user select an command on the client side (such as underlining text), have the client pass the command back to the server, and echo the results of that operation, right?
It would be incredibly awkward and impractical to do that through a conventional stateless HTTP medium such as JSPs, PHP or JavaScript. It may have been done before, I'm just not aware of any attempts to do so.
Are you willing to consider alternative third-party solutions, open source or not? Or is this something that you explicitly have to code?

End User Roles Tab: Link to security roles on ECC?

Hi-
There is a configurable value in the End User Roles tab where you can populate Roles. However when you select the values they only pull in roles loaded on the SolMan system. How can I access roles in target systems, so they can be mapped to my process hierarchy?

Hi
what do u mean by target systems... satellites systems.......i think you are confused somehow
this tab is used for learning map user roles
check this out and read it completely
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_sm32/helpdata/en/ee/4344ed87a24d8da937c565bf572408/frameset.htm
Learning map use
You want to send the learning map to a group of users with the same business role, e.g. to all accountants in your company, or to the purchasing department. You copy existing business roles in the Solution Manager, or create new ones.
Hpoe it clarifies ur doubt

Deploying a report to the end user without using Crystal Reports Server

Hello,
I'm using Crystal Reports Professional XI.
I finished creating a report that contains several subreports. Now it's time for me to deploy the report to the end user so that they can start running it. The company that I'm doing this consulting work for does not have Crystal Reports Server setup so what is the best approach to deploying this report to the end user? For now it would just be one user using the report but down the road there could be other people within his department that are running it as well.
if you have any questions or need additional information to answer my posting just let me know. Have a good day.
Regards,
Ting

Hi Ting,
I see now.... In older versions of CR like 8.5 there was a Deployment Wizard one could use to compile the report and runtime into an executable to run on an end users PC so that user could preview and refresh the reports.
That ability stopped as of CR 8.5 or earlier, I don't recall exactly now.
Yes, if they want to be able to run your report they will need to install a copy of Crystal Reports, then just send them your RPT file, they can then set Database location to their DB Source and then preview and refresh the report as required.
Or as mentioned use a third party app to do the same or write your own. It's quite simple to do and likely one of our samples applications is all you need with a few basic changes, report source and DB log on info would need to be updated.
As for licensing, the end user must purchase a copy of Crystal Reports to be able to use your application. Third Party app's would include the licensing mostly but check with them if you go that way.
The convenient part is if the users want to write their own reports they can.
And for your sake if you want to protect your reports the next version of CR has a read only RPT file format that all the user can do is preview and refresh the report. They can not edit it in anyway.
Thanks again
Don

How to allow normal/regular users to view a report

I have been compiling reports in MS SQL 2012 Reporting Services. the URLs is
http://test_report:80/reports. I have no problem with viewing the reports because I am an admin but normal users are getting access denied. this is how I assign permission to user. Open Reporting Services
Config Mnger --> Connect --> Click on Report Mnger URL --> click on
http://test_report:80/reports --> Open a another folder called Reports. In this "Reports" it has many reports. --> Click on Folder Settings --> Click on Security --> Click on "New Role Assignment" -->
In "Group or user name" text box, I entered user network computer login name, such as: domain_name\bambi --> Ensure "Browser" is checked --> Ok. I send this weblink to users but they cannot open it because of either access denied
or not have permission.
http://myservername/Reports/Pages/Report.aspx?ItemPath=%2fCorp_Reports%2fReportOfTimeInLieu. I am unsure why users cannot view my reports. Please let me know if I had missed any step(s). I use the Report Builders in Reporting Services
Config Mnger to compile reports. Regards,

so this web link will lead me to Home page:
http://myservername/Reports/Pages/Folder.aspx.
at the home page I have folder called Reports:
http://myservername/Reports/Pages/Folder.aspx?ItemPath=%2fReports&ViewMode=List
inside Reports folder, I have multiple reports, ie:
http://myservername/Reports/Pages/Report.aspx?ItemPath=%2fReports%2fReportOfTimeInLieu,
http://myservername/Reports/Pages/Report.aspx?ItemPath=%2fReports%2fReportOfVacationTime,
http://myservername/Reports/Pages/Report.aspx?ItemPath=%2fReports%2fReportOfSickDays,
http://myservername/Reports/Pages/Report.aspx?ItemPath=%2fReports%2fReportOfConferenceDays
On Home page I click on Folder Settings --> Security --> New Role Assignment --> Group or User name: domainname\bambi --> Role = Browser
On Home page I click on Site Settings --> Security --> New Role Assignment -> Group or User name: domainname\bambi --> Role = System User
On Home page I open Reports folder --> Site Settings --> Security --> new Role Assignment --> Group or User name: domainname\bambi --> Role = System User
Is this how I enable user bambi to 1) enable to open Reports folder and also browse for reports in Reports folder 2) enable user bambi to execute all reports in Reports folder.
Problem: user bambi was able to open Reports folder and see all reports saved in it; however, bambi gets a blank page upon selecting a report and open/run it. bambi should see company logo and report name. It was a blank white page.
What did I do incorrectly?
Thanks,
