Multiple users and shopping carts, one searchable index?

Hi all,
I've got an idea but I would like to know if it possible with Business Catalyst. I'll try and explain as simply as possible:
I have multiple users (let's say 10). They all need separate shopping carts as they are all selling different products. They all need their own admin areas that keep track of their incomes, workflows, shopping carts, etc. They are essentially 10 independent users. Will the WebCommerce10 plan satisfy their needs, or will 10 separate WebCommerce single plans need to be sold?
Taking the above into account, is there anyway to have 10 independent shopping carts, but they can all be searchable simultaneously? e.g. think eBay, lots of users with their own independent admin areas and products, but one search field returning many results from all the user's shopping carts? Is there anyway to achieve something like this with BC? Can subdomains do this? Any other ideas how to achieve this if none of the above is possible?
My plan B is having a landing page where a link for each of the 10 users will take them to their relevant shopping carts, but this experience isn't quite as integrated as I would like, from a web surfer's point of view.
Thanks.

Hi Robbie,
Yes, this would require significant modification to the shopping cart functionality. As it is now, it's very dependent the ShoppingCart being associated with the session and therefore the user. To change that would be significant work.
Additionally, if you had two people logging in to the same account and editing the same order around the same time, this would tend to not to work well. This is because two users would be two sessions and they would often get routed to different app server instances. Because the way orders are managed, there's no way to immediately sync up the changes between multiple instances, and if you managed to do it would likely slow things down drastically. I would not recommend trying this with ATG.
Thanks.

Multiple users, and two ipods on one Imac g5

I have an Imac g5 with 2 gigs of ram have multiple users and two Ipods, I have looked through the discussions pages about this but still cannot make the music in my account show up in my daughters account also I cannot get her ipod to work on her account. Help me please I have tried the fast switching, and dragging from the home directory. I know it must be something that I have done wrong. I think I must need very specific directions that are more inclusive than what I have used thus far. Ipod video 30 gig is my daughters and the new Ipod shuffle 1gig is mine.

What do you mean by synchronize; music, apps, calendars, email, etc? Do you two share the same Apple ID on all devices? An Apple ID can support up to 5 computers and many iDevices.
I hope this helps.

Control multiple updates and queries within one transaction in JPA

Hi,
I have a question regarding control multiple updates and queries within one transaction. We are using EclipseLink 2.3.1. With below code, will I be able to:
- have all insert, update, select queries committed in one transaction;
- queryGetBalance will return the latest OrgBalance after update;
- if one fails, everything rolls back.
Thanks!
Jeffrey
PS: I realized that I cannot use em.getTransaction().begin() and em.getTransaction().commit(), since I am using JTA.
=============
@PersistenceContext(unitName="Test")
EntityManager em;
em.setFlushMode(FlushModeType.COMMIT);
newTransaction.setAmount(1000);
newTransaction.setType("check");
em.persist(newTransaction);
orgAudit.setUpdateUser("Joe")
orgAudit.setupUpdateTime(time);
em.merge(orgAudit);
Query queryUpdateBalance = em.createQuery("update OrgBalance o set o.balance = o.balance + :amount where orgId = :myOrgId");
queryUpdateBalance.setParameter("amount", 1000);
queryUpdateBalance.setParameter("myOrgId", 1234);
Query queryGetBalance = em.createQuery("select OrgBalance o where o.orgId = :myOrgId");
queryGetBalance.setHint("javax.persistence.cache.storeMode", CacheStoreMode.REFRESH);
queryGetBalance.setHint("javax.persistence.cache.retrieveMode", CacheRetrieveMode.BYPASS);
queryGetBalance.getResultList();
em.flush();

Yes, the operation will be in a single transaction, assuming you are using a JTA managed SessionBean and the code is part of a SessionBean method.

Move users and schemas from one instance to another

Hi, I'm starting out in a DBA position.
My task at the moment is to move users and schemas from one instance to another.
We're using 9.2.0.7.
I have concluded that the following steps are necessary to move users and schemas from one instance to another :
1. Create the needed tablespaces.
2. Create the users that exist in the source instance
3. Use exp to do a full export
4. Use imp to re-create the schemas from the output file created by exp in step 3
Am I missing anything ?
Thanks,
Gabriel

3. Use exp to do a full exportInstead of doing a FULL export just export the users you want to move and imp that in other database using FROMUSER & TOUSER parameter.

Hi all,
In my current project I have a requirement which includes to validate the user default values on shop on one screen functionality, my question is, how can I access to this information? In web dynpro there's no reference to this information and in addition is not stored in the database as is only "available" during the current Shopping Cart creation.
Many Thanks in Advance,
Sara.

Multiple users and devices, one account

I have an iPad 1 and iPod Classic. My wife has an iPhone 4s and an iPod Touch. Sonny boy also has an iPod Touch. They are all linked to my apple id and account. How do I separate the account so that we can each manage our own devices from our single PC?
Though my wife has her own apple ID and account, everything is apparently linked to my account.
How can I set things up so we each manage our own devices, libraries, downloads, and accounts?

Yes, it does. Method one. Multiple Windows User account - to create different Windows User account for your wife and you son. You already have your windows user account, you just need to add two more. - Go to Windows Control Panel, Users and add user.(remember to choose Administrator instead of standard user).
Each of you will log in to your own windows user profile to manage your own iTunes library, account and sync devices.
e.g. Windows startup screen for multiple User profile.

Org management (integration with SAP ECC 6) and shopping cart approval

Background:
We currently use EBP 3.0 - Classic Scenario.
Our current Organisational plan was manually created in EBP, and is not the same as the HR hierarchy in SAP ECC 6
Shopping cart approvals use the workflow WS10000276 u2013 Approval Single Level over Limit, which utilises the SLAPPROVER attribute. The user name assigned to the SLAPPROVER attribute does not have to be the manager of the user. To meet our Business requirements, a fairly flat structure was created at the time we implemented EBP 3.0. The approval level an approver is allowed to approve up to is controlled with the use of roles assigned to a user. Each of the approval roles has an appropriate value set against the BBP_APPROVAL_LIMIT attribute under Personalisation.
Moving onu2026
We are just about to move from EBP 3.0 to SRM 7.0 u2013 Classic Scenario - by carrying out a new installation.
Our Business requirement has changed, in that they want the approval of shopping carts to be carried out by the line manager, if that person can approve the value of the shopping cart. If not, for the approval to go up the HR hierarch until a manager with a suitable level of approval is found.
I believe it is possible to create the Organisational structure in SRM from the HR hierarchy in SAP ECC 6. I have tried to do this in our play/test system using - Integration Business Partner-Organizational Management, without much success as yet!
I have a few questions in this area:
1.     Not all of the users in the SAP ECC 6 HR hierarchy will be SRM users. E.g. In the SAP
             hierarchy there are 3 users u2013 User A, User B and User C. User B is the manager of User
             A and User C is the manager of user B. In SRM only User A and User C are users. That
             being the case, is it still possible to initially create the organisational in SRM from SAP ECC6?
2.     If it is possible to create the organisational structure as described, then using Process
             Controlled Workflow we could use the Shopping Cart BC Set One-step manager approval.
     If we did this, what would be the best way to incorporate the approval limit of a manager?
     Can this be simply achieved by setting the BBP_APPROVAL_LIMIT attribute in conjunction
             with the One step manager approval?
     We want to avoid having to use the SLAPPROVER attribute due to the high level of
             maintenance we currently experience.
Thanks to anyone who can advise me.

Working with multiple users and computers, but shared data

Sorry if this is posted in a poor place, I'm not sure where the best place is. This is sort of a general questions.
For a long time, my wife and I have had either one computer, or two machines but one has definitely been just a terminal. We've basically set up all of our data to be one one primary machine, and if we want to view/edit that data we have to use that machine.
We just got a new MacBook Pro and I would like to be able to use two machines as equals. Sadly, this idea of multiple computers, with two users and some shared data is really giving me difficulty. I was wondering if anyone has any suggestions on how to best manage things like:
Synchronizing portions of our contact list (We share about 50% of the combined library -- we don't have to share all though).
How to manage iPhoto so that we can each have access to the photos. As an added difficulty (or maybe this is easier?) my Wife just wants to have access to the pictures for viewing and sharing on Facebook/Picassa/etc. I am the only one who wants to edit, correct and cull our library. That said, I always edit when I first put the data on the machine, and almost never again; so it would be fine to have one (or both accounts) set up as view only for the iPhoto data.
How to manage iTunes so that we can each have access to the music. As a super awesome bonus, it would be great if we could have three libraries: His, Hers and Shared. Maybe as much as 30% of our music library is similar, the rest just gets in the way.
What is the best solution people have found for calendars? (I'm thinking two separate calendars, and we each subscribe to each others iCal feed)
Mail.app and bookmark synching is not really a problem for us.
Two extra points:
* One machine is portable, and the other isn't. Ideally, when the laptop is out of the house, both machines should still have reasonable access to the shared data. That is: Just dumping things in the shared folder won't work because when the laptop is out of the house we will be disconnected from the source data.
* We just got a second iPhone. This means that both of us will be taking photos/video separately and trying to synch back to the master data store.
* Basically, I'm trying to minimize data duplication as much as possible, and just synchronize the systems to each other.
Thanks a ton in advance. If anyone has any suggestions at all, I would love to hear them. Including "This is in the wrong forum, go ask here instead..."

So you have a desktop Mac and a laptop Mac, right? Two user accounts (and a third admin account) on each computer, right?
I profess that I haven't tried this, but here is how I would approach your problem:
Sharing Music and Photos between multiple user accounts on the same computer:
See if http://forums.macrumors.com/showthread.php?t=194992 and http://forums.macrumors.com/showthread.php?t=510993 provide any useful information to assist you in this endeavor.
Sharing across multiple computers:
Turn on file sharing on the Desktop (System Preferences > Sharing). Now you can mount the Desktop as an external drive on the laptop's Desktop. Copy the music and photo folders across. Will take awhile to do the first time. Then, for future use, get a copy of the donationware CarbonCopyCloner or equivalent. You can use CCC to selectively sync specific folders from one computer to the other. There may be a hassle with digital copyright issues on music and movies, though.
Calendars:
As you have suggested yourself, publishing yours and subscribing to hers is probably the best way to do it, on the same computer. Across computers, syncing with CCC or equivalent would probably be the way to go.

How to share itunes library with multiple users, and keep organised

Hi,
I'm using iTunes (v12) on Windows 7 and am trying to set myself up so that multiple users on this PC are sharing the same library. I've followed the guidance mentioned on a couple of other threads, and put the library in the Users\Public\Music location, and on each user account have pointed iTunes to this location. This has worked OK, as both users can see all the music.
However, problems arise when User A deletes a couple of files (duplicates for example) - User B logs in, and the song is still listed in the library, but with an alert stating the original file cannot be located. They then have to go through the library and also delete these entries. Equally, if User B adds some music files (as opposed to iTunes downloads), they are not visible to User A until they "Add file to library..."
Are there any further steps that I can take to keep both users views of the library identical, without manual intervention by the second user whenever the first makes a change?
Cheers,
Matt

The way you've set it up each user has a distinct library, but is accessing a common set of media files and folders. To accomplish what you want, you need to have a complete iTunes library (database + media) in a common location - typically this would be C:\Users\Public\Music\iTunes. See turingtest2's notes on Make a split library portable for the steps that may be needed to bring your library into a suitable structure. Based on your description, you'll need to select one user's library (C:\Users\username\Music\iTunes\iTunes Library.itl) to act as the shared "master" and move this to the Public folders.
Then, for each user, hold down SHIFT while starting iTunes - when you get this prompt:
click on Choose Library..., navigate to C:\Users\Public\Music\iTunes, select the iTunes Library.itl file you'll find there, and click Open (you'll only need to do this once for each user account).
Note, though, that iTunes is inherently a single-user application - any attempts to run iTunes at the same time will cause errors (and, in the worst case, possible corruption). For this reason, its a good idea to disable fast user switching in Windows so that only one user can be logged in, and running iTunes, at the same time.

Multiple Users....One iTunes Library

I am looking find a easier solution to a iTunes multiple user problem I have encountered.Firstly I have followed the steps outlined on numerous articles here to move the music content out of the home folder and move it to the first level of the harddrive and to link all users to this library through the advanced option within iTunes. This I can do no problem and works fine for using the on music content between two users.
Now here is where I am looking for assistance...At the moment when I link the second user to this music library, I must input all playlists and song ratings from scratch. I would like to move my iTunes preferences from one user to the other.Basically I have one music library that is many playlists broken down by artists and also this music is rated. I would like to be able to have this info move across to the other user also.
I have tried a few things to solve this but the end result was moving playlist/song ratings from the main user to the second user....which would have been perfect, but the main user lost this info when I attempted this.
Is this possible....sorry for the long winded explanation and I do hope you can understand the problem that I am trying to explain

Brent, A key is to understand the difference between a library and the music folder. The iTunes Library file is a file that acts as a directory or catalog for a music collection. The Music Folder is where the actual holdings, or files, of the music collection are stored. When you set the music folder location in Preferences:Advanced, you tell iTunes where to store future music files you add to your holdings. Apparently, you have iTunes set up so different user accounts are saving new music files to the same music folder. However, those different users are each using their own library file, and that's why you're not sharing the same directory information across different user accounts.
What you have to do is get each user account to use the same library file, which for at least all but the first user is not going to be the default iTunes Library file that is automatically created in each user's iTunes folder. That is what the instructions in the previous post involving launching iTunes with the Option key accomplish.

Table for PO and Shopping cart combination in SRM

Hi Guys,
Can any one help me out with a table which gets updated with PO and Shopping numbers in SRM.?
Regards
Srujank

Hi Srujan.
The table CRMD_ORDERADM_H will store the document numbers. But it wont be storing both the shopping cart as well as PO number for a record.
To find out the SC number from PO or vice versa use the following method:
You can use pass the PO number in function module BBP_PD_PO_GETDETAIL.
From here you will get the Shopping cart Item Guid in E_ITEM-SRC_GUID. You can again pass this guid in the table CRMD_ORDERADM_I and get the parent guid.
Pass this parent guid in table CRMD_ORDERADM_H to get the shopping cart number. Its stored in the OBJECT_ID field.
There is another way to find out the shopping cart number:
Pass the PO number in FM BBP_PD_PO_GETDETAIL
Check the E_HEADER_REL, when the value of the field OBJTYPE_A = BUS2121 then the field GUID_A will contain the header guid of the shopping cart.
Use this guid to get the SC number from table CRMD_ORDERADM_H.
Hope this helps.
Thanks,
Pradeep

Best way to manage multiple users and multiple devices?

I would like some advice on the best way to manage iTunes and devices synced to it for multiple users -- Here's the scenario: I have 2 grade-school aged kids, who each have an iPod Nano and are going to get my old iPhone 3G to use as an iTouch after I upgrade my phone to the iPhone 4. In addition to my iPhone, I have a MacBook, a 30GB iPod, and a iMac. We are also looking into buying an iPad that we'll want to use (among other things) to watch movies while traveling. All music/apps/movies are currently located in my iTunes account on the iMac, and we sync via my personal @mac.com account.
I don't want to simply set up separate iTunes accounts for each kid, as I'd like to be able to control what music & apps they buy/download, and I've already got a fair amount of "their" music/apps/movies in my account, and don't want to have to try and move it from my account to theirs. Any advice on how to best set up an iTunes sharing arrangement that allows me to control their accounts, and sync all of the above devices would be most appreciated. Thanks in advance.
