Outlook integration slows the client PC down

Hi all,
environment:
2007A, PL 45, Outlook Integration.
the Exchange Server is running on the same box.
effect:
following messages appears on the client:
"Outlook tries to read data from the server"
(Outlook versucht Daten vom Server abzurufen)
and the client PC will be slowed down.
Could you please give me any hints?
Thanks and regards,
Janos

Dear Janos,
First, I suggest to upgrade the addon and B1 to the latest patch. See the notes about the PL if in the PL, there are several notes explained if there is a bugs or not in the addon or PL version you are currently use.
Check also B1 system requirement and setup guide to know more. Submit this case also to SAP support if not solve.

Can Outlook Integration create the activity from an email automatically?

I have an SAP client who's customer service department receives a lot of emails, we would like for Outlook integration to import these into SAP as activities automatically, instead of the user doing it manually. Is this possible?
Thanks

It might be possible but not easy. At least, you need to develop your own program to achieve your goal if that is an option.
Thanks,

Outlook integration installation

Dear Experts!
I want to install outlook integration in the client system by using 'CITRIX' Server Please any one help me
It is very urgent!
Regards
Selva.D

Hi Selva.D,
Please run Standalone OI addon from the installation package.
Outlook Integration is a different from other SAP Addons, because it consists of two parts: one part
running Within SAP Business one and one run within outlook.
It will install an Add-on only on the machine that runs the SAP Business One application, therefore in your case using Citrix server, Outlook Add-In has to be installed on each client separately using the
"Standalone Installer" of Outlook Integration.
Please refer to the installation guide related to SAP Business one in citrix environment by using the following link.
http://www.citrix.com/site/resources/dynamic/partnerDocs/SAPBusinessOneCitrixInstallationGuide.pdf
Hope it helps.

Outlook Integration w/o the client

I have a client that run their B1 clients on a terminal server but they'd like to run Outlook Integration locally on their PCs where they use Outlook. I installed the OI toolbar on one of their PCs but when I try to login it gives an error saying that it can't find the database list. When I install the B1 client locally the OI toolbar connects fine. We're looking to see if we can get the OI toolbar working without having to install the client on all the PCs. Does anyone know if it's possible to do that?

Sorry, I just reread my post and I think that I didn't make clear that we're using the Outlook Integration Stand Alone client. I was under the impression that the purpose of the standalone client was that it didn't require the B1 fat client to be installed with it. I see a couple of official post here stating just that. I also see a couple of other posts from people in the same situation that I'm in now, same error, but I don't see any solutions in those threads...

How Can You Slow the Titles in Movie Trailer Down?

I love the new movie trailers in iMovie, but I need to slow the title slide down. Does anyone know how to do this?

You can do it by converting the Movie Trailer to a Project. However once converted, you cannot go back to the Movie Trailer interface and continue to work using the Movie trailer tools. So what you might want to do is get everything, Everything you can get accomplished using just the Movie trailer tools. Then at the very end, the very last step Convert to Project and stretch out the duration of that title slide.
To Convert to Project go to the File Menu > Convert to Project. iMovie will then move everything into the iMovie Project Browser as clips, background sound tracks, titles, etc.

Outlook Integration - Snapshot templates missing when upgrade to 8.8 PL14

hello all,
We have a problem when upgrade from B1 8.8 PL10 to PL14, the snapshot template missing. We had no problems to generate snapshots in B1 8.8 PL10.
All the snapshot templates has been installed on <Servername>\B1_SHR\AddOn\Microsoft Outlook Integration\Templates\Default
And in the -GoTo meny- and select -create default templates- could not be started.
Grateful for all help.

Hi Jorg,
I quote a solution for similar case but the solution is based on client PC :
OI: Failed to create snapshot template in client machine
Symptom
You start up Outlook integration Addon in client machine. When you want to create a snapshot template, you get an error that can not create it.
Other terms
SAP Business One, Add-on, Outlook integration, OI, snapshot template, Index, Host, U_Host, BOOSTP , failed to create
Reason and Prerequisites
The index on user defined table [@BOOSTP] is not right. It does not include column U_Host.
Solution
You can run below script to fix it,
IF EXISTS (SELECT 1 FROM CUFD
WHERE AliasID = 'Host'
and TableID = '@BOOSTP')
BEGIN
IF EXISTS (SELECT name FROM sys.indexes
WHERE name = N'@BOOSTPBOOSTPI1')
DROP INDEX [@BOOSTP].[@BOOSTPBOOSTPI1]
IF EXISTS (SELECT name FROM sys.indexes
WHERE name = N'BOOSTPI1')
DROP INDEX [@BOOSTP].[BOOSTPI1]
ALTER TABLE [@BOOSTP] ALTER Column U_Host nvarchar(200)
CREATE INDEX BOOSTPI1
ON [@BOOSTP](U_TplName, U_Language, U_CatID, U_Host)
IF NOT EXISTS (SELECT 1 FROM UKD1
WHERE tableName = N'@BOOSTP' and SubKeyId = 3)
Insert into UKD1 values('@BOOSTP',0,3,'Host')
END
ELSE
Print 'There is no U_Host column in @BOOSTP table!'
if the above solution can't solve it, log a message to SAP support.

Outlook Integration: unable to create snapshot templates.

Dear all,
I followed all the steps mentioned in note 861055
"You can easily repeat the step of template creation after running the server installation:
   1. Start the Addon Outlook Integration from Business one.
   2. Choose/Administration/Outlook Integration/Define Snapshot Templates
   3. Select "Create Default Templates" from the "Goto" menu. This will repeat the procedure that could not be started because of the missing layout files."
But when I choose "Create Default Templates" nothing happens...
I'm using SBO 2005A SP01 PL31 and Outlook Integration PL60.
Also, what's the difference between the OIStandAlone and the OutlookIntegration files?
Best Regards,
Vítor

Hello,
This issue is really interesting, I really desperate to install it. I read the note and find out that server installation must be run before initialisation of addon in the client workstation. Initialisation means addon registration. I just think the template will be created in the client workstation if the server installation has run. Both must be run. But here the explanation I've got from pdf file :
Template Layout Files for Microsoft Outlook Integration Snapshots
The SAP Business One Add-On Server Installer copies the template layout files for snapshots in the following subfolder in <B1DIR>: B1_SHR\AddOn\Microsoft Outlook Integration\Templates\Default. However, if the SAP Business One 2005 SP01 application is not a new installation but an upgrade, the name of the subfolder is the same as for SAP Business One 2004.
In the Default folder, there are language-specific folders for all templates. After you complete the registration of the Microsoft Outlook add-on on your server and begin the initialization in a company database from a client, the add-on creates default templates for the current language of the company to which you are logged on. These default layout files are also stored in <B1DIR> in the following subfolder: B1_SHR\AddOn\Microsoft Outlook Integration\Templates\<name of company database>\Default. When you later use the add-on to create additional default templates (by using the Create Default Templates function of the add-on), your default templates are also stored in: B1_SHR\AddOn\Microsoft Outlook Integration\Templates\<name of company database>\Default.
However, if the application is unable to locate this folder or the folder cannot be created, a selection window will allow you to select a different location. This path will be stored in the company settings of the Microsoft Outlook Integration add-on and can be changed by you. The default layout files for the company are copied to the Default subfolder of the folder you select.
The OIStandalone is a standalone installer for the Microsoft Outlook Integration add-on. This tool allows you to install the add-on without having to install the SAP Business One client on your PC. The alternative installer is appropriate for scenarios in which the SAP Business One client is not installed on the same PC as Microsoft Outlook. An example of such a scenario is the use of the Terminal Server for SAP Business One.
If you have tried, let me know the result.

Outlook Integration Configuration in a Multiple Server Environment

Hello Experts,
I have the following environment :
Four Citrix Servers --> SAP B1 Application Server --> License Server --> B1isn + SQL Server --> DB Server.
First, which server/s would I configure for outlook integration from the "Mail Settings" window? This is where the admin would enter the SMTP server, SMTP port, etc. Which servers would require that the Outlook Integration tool to be installed? Second, I have read on most forums that configuring the "Mail Settings" window is the only step needed to begin sending e-mails from SAP B1; is this true? Third, If the admin did not originally install the Outlook Integration tool when installing SAP, how would I go about installing the tool now?
Any help is greatly appreciated.
Thank you,
Taylor

Further to this, there is a transaction code that calls this function module: SRDEBUG (see OSS Note 1004248). It's a little quirky but it does work.
1) Set your external breakpoint.
2) run transaction SRDEBUG. This will display a pop-up asking if you want to stop debugging. This pop-up must remain active until you want to stop debugging, so just leave it hanging there while you debug.

Sales Employee in Outlook Integration

I would like to check in Outlook Integration that the Sales Employee field is available for usage when synching Activites, meetings, etc.

Hi,
What I mean is that there is no special sales employee synch but it is included in the 4th area mentioned in my previous answer.
Based on OI ppt file :
Data synchronization between SAP Business One and Microsoft Outlook comprises the synchronizing of the following items.
MS Outlook Calendar appointments --> SAP Business One Activities (Meetings / Phone Calls).
MS Outlook Tasks --> SAP Business One Activity (Task).
MS Outlook Contacts --> SAP Business One Business Partner / Contact Person.
To define which of these are synchronized, you choose from specific criteria for each of these items.
These criteria (default settings) are grouped into the following categories:
General settings, for example, what kind of item (appointments, contacts, and/or tasks) will be synchronized.
Calendar-specific settings, for example, the date range of the appointments that will be synchronized.
Contact-specific settings, for example, only the contacts belonging to a specific business partner will be synchronized.
Task-specific settings, for example, only open tasks will be synchronized.
Scheduling settings, for example, you can schedule an automatic data synchronization every time you log on to SAP Business One
Conflict resolution settings, for example, when two different system copies exist for the same appointment (one in SAP Business One and one in Microsoft Outlook), you decide which system data is written to the other system.
There are two main settings for performing a synchronization, these are synchronize and quick synchronize.
The main difference between the two being when you choose quick synchronize data between SBO and Microsoft Outlook are synchronized without the user being prompted by the system to check the criteria for the synchronization. Whereas when you select synchronization the user is prompted to check the criteria of the synchronization. In the next demonstration we will set up and run the synchronization.
So, I guess the sales employee synch included in the 4th area I have mentioned.

Outlook Integration installation with only remote access

Hello B1 gurus !!
Is it possible to install Outlook Integration when the possibility given by a company is only to access the SAP B1 server thru Remote desktop functionnality ?
If yes, how does it work and what are the steps (if different as given SAP Install procedure) to achieve such an installation ?
Exemple: SAP B1 Server is installed in France, Users accessing it are in an other country and can access it only remote.
thanks for your quick answer
Chris

Hello Chris,
It is absolutely possible. That is because when you connected through Remote Desktop, you can do anything just like local in the same network. The security profile has to be set up correctly though.
Thanks,
Gordon

Outlook Integration Update

Hi,
Normally, for installing Outlook Integration for the first time, should we install the package called "B12005ADDONS01_11-20001708.zip" (which contains a folder called 'Server installation') ?
Since there are some bugs in this version, what should I do to upgrade ? Let's say I want to update the Outlook Integration add-on to patch 107 for example, what do we have to do ? There is no "Server Installation" in this "B12005OUTLOOK01P_107-20001696.ZIP" zip file ... Is it normal ? What is the procedure to update OI add-on ?
Because when I checked the SQL Profiler to verify if the issue is still there (when I save an e-mail as an activity), it seems that nothing has changed between PL11 and PL107... Is it normal ?
Thanks,
Luce

The add on version has to match the SAP version - they will use the same DI, so you should only use the version that is downloaded with the patch you are on. If you need to upgrade, you should upgrade both your SAP and OI versions.
If your bug is a reported issue, you should find a note on the SAP Support website which will tell you which version it is fixed / planned to be fixed in

Outlook integration: VB error "script out of bounds"

All,
I just tried to set up one of our users with the Outlook integration. The install was successful, but when the user selects an existing email message and clicks on "Add to Siebel" and selects a contact, for example, Outlook throws an error indicating "script out of bounds."
A little searching indicates this is a VB error. Even after closing and restarting both outlook and Siebel, the error persists. It has not occurred with any of our other users.
Has anyone experienced this before?
Any help is greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Dan

Outlook Integration - we just went live a couple weeks ago..migrated from Siebel Upshot...where we also used integration without incident.
We get "Unknown error has occurred" Subscript out of range.
Support does not know the answer.
We suspect it has to do with the "auto-finding" of emails....there are a few issues with the R14 version of this app.
Any results...please advise.

IOException when remote client goes down in Linux

Hello all -
This my first post here. I have ran into a bit of an issue with some code I have written. I have written a small client/server application that works on the premise that if the remote application ends, the socket will be broken, and an IOException will be thrown. I then catch the IOException and then end the particular thread associated with that socket. This works fine in Windows, but when I kill the remote application in Linux, an IOException is never thrown on the server, it's as if the socket is still there even tho the application ended. I'm thinking there is something different that happens when I kill a process in Linux vs Windows. I have tried using the SIGINT, and SIGTERM switches for kill but they made no difference. Does anyone have any idea, admittedly I am a Linux noob, thanks!
-Kam

If the server is reading when the client goes down it won't get an IOException, it will get an EOS condition: read() returns -1, readLine() returns null, readXXX() for any other X throws an EOFException.

How do I get Thunderbird to connect to a properly-configured Office 365 mail account after shutting down and then restarting the client?

I get my Office 365 account set up and working in Thunderbird. I can download and send mail just fine using the auto-detect or manual account settings recommended by Microsoft/Outlook/Office 365. Everything appears to be working as it should as long as the client stays open. When I shut the Thunderbird client down and restart it, it can no longer access the Office 365 mail account. I get a popup error message:
The current operation on 'Inbox' did not succeed. The mail server for account (my Office 365 account) responded: User is authenticated but not connected.
It has no problem connecting to Hotmail, Gmail and other email services, and I can access Office 365 through the web client, but Thunderbird refuses to connect. If I remove the account and re-add it, I can have full access to my email again, but only as long as Thunderbird stays open. If the client gets restarted, it's gone again.
How do I fix this?

I think you might be having a cached password problem. I was having it and was able to resolve by deleting my stored password in Thunderbird. I referenced

and also posted my question and resolution:
