Prevent Confirmation for non-related users

Hi Experts:
We are using SRM 7 (classic scenario), ECC6.
The user creates conformation in SRM.
Our issue is that, any user can create confirmation for any PO even if not related to his SC. If the user knows the PO no., he can do create confirmation as follows:
Under Purchasing tab ==> Purchasing ==> Services ==> Create documents ==> confirmation.
My question:
1. How to prevent user from other department to create confirmation for PO not related to his SC?
2. How to allow users from the same deprtemnet to creat confirmation for thier own departments, so that in case of absent of the SC creator, his collegue can create conformation.
Thanks

Hi Hoasheq,
There are two possible approaches:
1. Implement and enhance Process Controlled Workflow for Confirmation document via BRF (no developments required, higher flexibility). Ensuring that confirmations created from different department are automatically rejected or maybe even require (more) approval.
2. Implement code in DOC_CHECK_BADI to ensure your below requirement, discuss with your ABAP developer.
Kind regards,
Tim

Prevent confirmation for non-released PO

I am trying to generate a message to the user when they try to process a confirmation in SRM for a PO that is not yet released. All approvals are done in SRM. However, after the PO is created on the backend, workflow could restart if a change is made.
In SAP, if you try to process a GR you get a message that the PO is not released. In SRM, if I try and process a confirmation, nothing happens. This could frustrate our users because they will continue to click on the confirmation icon.
I set up message BBP_CF 057 in SRM as an error message. But, if I try to do a confirmation, nothing happens.
We are on SRM 4.0 and SAP ECC 5.0.
How do I get a message to appear on the confirmation screen so that a user knows why they cannot do a confirmation?

How to allow access to winrs for non-admin user?

I have Windows Server 2012 (and Server 2008, but it is next priority) to monitor it using txwinrm. txwinrm library internally is using WinRS protocol. I have to monitor it using least privileged user, but don't know how to configure access for him.
All I managed to do - is to configure remote Powershell session for my user, but it's look like that winrs and powershell sessions have different security descriptors:
Invoke-Command -ComputerName 192.168.173.206 -Credential (credential Administrator $pwd) -ScriptBlock { 2 + 2}
# gives 4
Invoke-Command -ComputerName 192.168.173.206 -Credential (credential lpu1 $pwd) -ScriptBlock { 2 + 2}
# gives 4
winrs -r:192.168.173.206 -u:Administrator -p:$pwd 'powershell -command "2+2"'
# gives 4
winrs -r:192.168.173.206 -u:lpu1 -p:$pwd 'powershell -command "2+2"'
# Gives Winrs error: Access is denied.
Configuration for my user is following:
(Get-Item WSMan:\localhost\Service\RootSDDL).value
# O:NSG:BAD:P(A;;GA;;;BA)(A;;GA;;;S-1-5-21-3231263931-1371906242-1889625497-1141)S:P(AU;FA;GA;;;WD)(AU;SA;GWGX;;;WD)
(Get-PSSessionConfiguration -name Microsoft.Powershell).SecurityDescriptorSddl
# O:NSG:BAD:P(A;;GA;;;BA)(A;;GA;;;S-1-5-21-3231263931-1371906242-1889625497-1149)S:P(AU;FA;GA;;;WD)(AU;SA;GXGW;;;WD)
(In each security descriptor my user is given general access to protected object).
So what security descriptor should I set to make my winrs query work for non-admin user?

Hi Bunyk,
I can not recreate the erroe you posted, and please also post the screenshoot in your convenience.
I tested with a non-domain user but has the local admin permission of the remote computer, and this worked, before running the remote cmdlet in powershell, I also configured the TrustedHosts.
In addition, the access denied could be also caused to the Protocol Filtering on the remote server, for more detailed information, please refer to this thread:
winrs error:access is denied
I hope this helps.

SQL tab not working in V2.1 EA1 for non-DBA users -- how to fix?

In v2.1 EA 1 the tab to show the SQL script (DDL) in the object browser is not working for non-DBA users. In the prior version, these users would see a message about DBMS_METADATA and then the message would indicate that an "internal generator" would be used to generate the DDL script. After that brief message the DDL would show up as expected. This doesn't seem to be the case in the newest version.
I issued the following two grants to a particular user which worked, but I am reluctant to issue the grants to "PUBLIC".
SQL> grant execute on DBMS_METADATA to XXXXX;
SQL> grant select_catalog_role to XXXXX;
So, my questions are:
1) Will the old functionality (that didn't require these privileges) be added to V2 at some point?
2) What security implications are there for issueing the above grants to PUBLIC?
NOTE: After granting execute on the DBMS_METADATA package, it still didn't work. I left that grant in place and granted SELECT_CATAOG_ROLE, so I can't say for sure that the 1st grant was required.

An OEM account is separate from the database account. You need to use OEM UI to create an OEM account, however, for certain tasks to be done in the databases which OEM is monitoring they will also require separate database accounts within those databases. For example, to view the performance tab in OEM UI, a database account is required.
OEM only has two types of users, i.e. Super Administrator and Administrator, but don't go by the names. You can grant an OEM 'Administrator' account access to specific targets and what they can do within OEM, such as only viewing reports, targets, and so on. For access within a database, the user created need not be a DBA either.
I hope you understand.

Acrobat 7 requires admin password at every launch for non admin users?

acrobat 7 requires admin password at every launch for non admin users?
any one with a solution or similar problem?
thanks for any help.

I've been avidly following all of the threads regarding this issue...yet none of the solutions have worked for me. I've got 11 Mac users that do not use the Creative Suite..only Acrobat, Quark, etc. I've tried installing and re-installing through both Admin and User accounts, I've tried the AdobeBib XML change, I've tried enabling Root and installing, changing permission on the Acrobat folder, etc. all to no avail. I still get asked for Admin Authentication every time Acrobat and Distiller are opened (except on the Admin account side). This is happening on one particular Mac (G4, 1GB Ram, OS 10.4.3) for both Acrobat Standard 6 and 7 as well. The biggest issue that also happens in tandem with the Acrobat installs is the inability to print from Quark. I get the following error when printing: "The process "pictwpstops" terminated unexpectedly on signal 6." Because of the necessity to print Quark documents, I have uninstalled all Acrobat on the machines until we can get a fix. This resolves the printing problem with Quark. The only option left is to set up all users as Admin accounts - which I really do not want to do. Any other suggestions out there? I've got more information available if needed.

I received a notice that there is an update for my Lightroom 5. I have the non-creative cloud version. Is the update available for non-cloud users? It says to download click the link and it takes me to Cloud free trial screen.

It is the same installer. You can run it as 30-days trial (CC version) and decide later for CC or stand-alone. To license as stand-alone, follow this guide.
If you already have the LR6 license key, you can enter it during setup and do not need to follow the guide.

Can I burn photos onto a DVD/CD for non-Mac users?

Can I burn photos onto a DVD/CD for non-Mac users?

You can burn a plain CD/DVD by just dragging the photos there; but, that may or may not be playable by everyone. To be sure that the result would be playable in any computer or CD/DVD player, it would be better to use either one of the apps already on your system - such as iPhoto. I don't use that myself - I use other third party software - but take a look at iPhoto help. And, you could make it more interesting by creating a slideshow - also in iPhoto, or iMovie. To give it the final cool touch, bring it into iDVD to give it a polished look if you'd like. You can burn it then from any of the above.
If you happen to have Toast (an excellent burning app), you could use that as well (that is my preferred way to work). In Toast, you have multiple choices: burn a data CD/DVD for Mac only, for Mac & PC, etc, burn a picture CD, video DVD, etc, etc.

JDBC for non-relational Databases.

Hi All,
correct me if I am wrong in my understanding,
1. JDBC are a set of specifications (as interfaces etc..) which each
vendor is expected to provide implementation.
2. JDBC is for relationsla databases only (like oracle,MySQL etc..) it
does not take into account the access to non-relational databases.
3. If 2 is true, is there an equivalent of JDBC for non-relational
databases?
TIA.

1. JDBC are a set of specifications (as interfaces etc..) which each
vendor is expected to provide implementation.
Broadly speaking, yes. It doesn't have to be the vendor that provides the implementation, and an ODBC driver (to be used via the JdbcOdbc bridge) is adequate if a native JDBC driver is not available.
2. JDBC is for relationsla databases only (like oracle,MySQL etc..) it
does not take into account the access to non-relational databases.
It expects tabular results. Aside from that I don't think it mandates anything about the design of the underlying system. Certainly it's entirely agnostic about syntactic issues.
For example, it can talk to Excel spreadsheets, via the JdbcOdbc bridge, and Excel is by no stretch of the imagination a relational database. IMS is not a relational database, but that has a JDBC driver.
3. If 2 is true, is there an equivalent of JDBC for non-relational
databases?
2 is not true, and I'm not aware of any "non relational" database connection standard, probably for this very reason. There may well be vendor specific tools for talking to some systems.

User Interface Access Customisation for non admin users

Hi,
It is understood that for non-admin users, some features of the Planning Interface is not enabled and this can be controlled by proper access permissions. But, is it possible to extend the customization to provide some additional features in the menu bar for an user?
For example, if View User wants to manage task lists. Is it possible by some sort of customization? Please advise.
Thanks.

Hi,
You can create right click menus, and you can also create links on the tools page. Would any of these help you?
Here is the doc on those subjects:
Creating and Updating MenusAdministrators can create right-click menus and associate them with data forms, enabling users to click rows or columns in data forms and select menu items to:
Launch another application, URL, or business rule, with or without runtime prompts
Move to another data form
Move to Manage Approvals with a predefined scenario and version
The context of the right-click is relayed to the next action: the POV and the Page, the member the user clicked on, the members to the left (for rows), or above (for columns).
When designing data forms, use Other Options to select menus available for Data Form menu item types. As you update applications, update the appropriate menus. For example, if you delete a business rule referenced by a menu, remove it from the menu.
To create, edit, or delete menus:
Select Administration, then Manage, then Menus.
Perform one action:
To create a menu, click Create, enter the menu's name, and click OK.
To change a menu, select it and click Edit.
To delete menus, select them, click Delete, and click OK.>
Specifying Custom ToolsAdministrators can specify custom tools, or links, for users on the Tools page. Users having access to links can click links from the Tools menu to open pages in secondary browser windows.
To specify custom tools:
Select Administration, then Application, then Settings.
For Show, select Advanced Settings.
Click Go.
Select Custom Tools.
For each link:
For Name, enter the displayed link name.
For URL, enter a fully qualified URL, including the http:// prefix
For User Type, select which users can access the link.
Click Save.

Is Lightroom intentionally made difficult for non-English users?

Could it be that Lightroom is intentionally made difficult for the non-English user? I came to this forum today hoping to find an answer and all I see is problems when I try searching the forum, and complicated instructions on how to, supposdely, solve this issue. The issue I am facing has to do with localization, compatibility, interoperability and compliance. The problem is that I can't use many of the Lightroom shortcuts. Many of the ones that require the use of a modifier key on my keyboard just don't work. So what if I have a Swedish keyboard? Sweden is one of the most computer literate contries in the world, and Sweden has played a major role in the development of early computers and new technologies. Adobe has a presence in this country, and I'm quite sure Sweden is an important market for Adobe. So why not make Lightroom compatible with the Swedish keyboard? Why should I care to go through complicated instructions on how to hacktivate my keyboard by the means of editing config or script files? Why can't it just work out of the box?
I feel like this is intentional. Could it be that Lightroom users are only to be found in English speaking countries like USA, UK, New Zealand and Australia? I don't think so.

How about the ability to change keyboard shortcut bindings, i.e. custom shortcuts? I just found that this is not even possible in Lightroom! That explains why people take these strange measures and kludgy ways of making custom shortcuts in Lightroom. Changing shortcuts is often times tricky business because you have to change them in respect to other shortcuts. It's likely that one will have to change several keyboard shortcuts to avoid conflicts, etc. Lightroom needs a shortcut editor!
One should really not even have to change the default shortcuts, Adobe should choose some intelligent key combinations that make sense, and they should just work on any keyboard. I've tried changing the language from English to Swedish in Lightroom settings. The result of this is that nearly all shortcuts are changed to something else, so I would have to re-learn some of the shortcuts I have already learned using Lightroom in English, and of course this also changes the language of the interface which is not something I want. I will have to change my keyboard layout to English to make this work, or get a secondary keyboard, one with English layout. This is something I will only have to do when I work in Lightroom, because many of the professional programs that I use are working just fine with my keyboard. Perhaps Adobe can make the keyboard localization (shortcut maps) as an option, separate from the interface language setting? And for God sake integrate a keyboard shortcut editor for once!

Another Swiss user on Lightroom forums:
http://www.lightroomforums.net/showthread.php?6867-Flippy-Key-Using-Lightroom-in-english-w ith-a-non-english-keyboard-layout
I ended up removing the Keyboard Tamer plugin and then manually adding following strings to C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop Lightroom 4\Resources\en\TranslatedStrings.txt. This is by the way something that the Keyboard Tamer plugin does as well, because when I removed it I found two files named TranslatedStrings.txt in the Recycle Bin. The Keyboard Tamer is just supposed to save you the time and effort of manually manipulating these strings.

I found this thread helpful:

I just replaced AgDevelop with AgLibrary. This of course only changes the key binding for Zoom In and Zoom Out in the Library module. Is there perhaps a document somewhere that explains the structure of the TranslatedStrings.txt file? There seems to be one of these files in each of the language specific folders under the Resources folder.
This file is known to be found in:
C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop Lightroom 4\Resources>dir /b /s TranslatedStrings.txt
C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop Lightroom 4\Resources\de\TranslatedStrings.txt
C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop Lightroom 4\Resources\en\TranslatedStrings.txt
C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop Lightroom 4\Resources\es\TranslatedStrings.txt

C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop Lightroom 4\Resources\zh_cn\TranslatedStrings.txt
C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop Lightroom 4\Resources\zh_tw\TranslatedStrings.txt
I will study the structure of this file in Resources\sv\ and try to understand it. And as I find new "flaws" in the shortcut key bindings I will make new edits to the file I saved in Resources\en\ accordingly.
Here's an idea: those of you who don't mind re-learning all the shortcuts - the localized shortcuts for Swedish keyboards - simply copy the TranslatedStrings.txt file from C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop Lightroom 4\Resources\sv\ and paste it in C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop Lightroom 4\Resources\en\. What this does it allows you to keep English as your interface language, but it changes the shortcut map to something that's more adopted for the Swedish keyboard layout. You get the same shortcut key bindings as the ones you see when you change the language to Swedish in the settings. But this way you are preventing Lightroom from changing the interface language.
Either that, or add new strings to an empty Resources\en\TranslatedStrings.txt file for each key binding you find to be broken and not compatible with your keyboard. This way you are only making changes to the key bindings that don't work very well for your keyboard, you are not chaning all of the shortcut key bindings. The other key bindings stay the same, the default key bindings found in the English version of Lightroom (or with English as language settings).
This is a way to adapt Lightroom for your own environment. But this is still too complicated and unncessary. A simple shortcut editor built into Lightroom would have solved this. But what are we going to do?... this is up to Adobe... Lightrooms have been complaining about the lack of a shortcut editor since at least Lightroom 2 and Adobe has not listened. So I don't expect to see this feature in the following years to come. It might just come along in maybe Lightroom version seven or something... but who cares?... At that time I might even ditch Lightroom altogether.
Ligthroom 5 upgrade...
I just found out that the new Lightroom 5 is not compatible with Windows Vista. I have the Vista Ultimate 64-bit on my desktop where I use Lightroom. This was not made very clear by Adobe. They simply state that Lightroom 5 works on Mac and on Windows. You have to read the fine print. I almost purchased the upgrade. I'm glad I didn't. I won't upgrade from Vista to Windows 7 just to run Lightroom 5! We, the early Windows Vista adapters, got screwed by Microsoft. Now, we are getting screwed by Adobe too! I see no reason not to support Windows Vista as it is pretty much the same system as Windows 7, and one would expect Adobe to support them both. I found a thread about it where one user asked why Vista was not supported and Adobe failed to give any explanation. They just silently dropped the OS support.
I guess they can do whatever they want. They are Adobe.
But I will not upgrade to Windows 7 because of Lightroom, so I won't upgrade to Lightroom 5. This is a great oppertunity for Phase One to strike with a good deal, such as a discounted migration upgrade for Capture One. I am sure many Lightroom 4 users would be happy to leave the Lightroom ship in favor of Capture One. At the end of life of Lightroom 4 I will probably just go to Capture One, even if I have to pay full price. At least they support Windows Vista.

Majority of reports missing for non admin users

I have followed the instructions here (SCCM 2012–Reporting in console for non-admins (Reporting User Role) v2) to allow non admin users the ability to view
reports in the console. So far, so good. However, when viewing the reports with the non admin user, only about 100 of the 400+ reports appear.
Am I missing something here?

The custom reporting one in the link I provided, and also modified versions of the following:
OS Deployment manager (removed rights to All driver related items (drivers and driver packages), Boot image packages (except read access), Operating system installation packages).
Application Administrator (removed Application>Approve; Distribition Point>Set Security Scope; Distribution Point Group>Set Security Scope; Global Condition>Set Security Scope)
The reports missing we care about primarily are Software ones (companies and products and files).

[SOLVED] Systemctl poweroff etc hangs for non-root user

Hi. I recently messed up /etc/passwd and /etc/group as explained here . It seems it might be related.
The problem I have now is that the power management commands (systemctl {poweroff, hibernate, suspend}) "hangs" for my non-root user. They do nothing, and are not even logged to the journal.
When run as root they all work just fine.
I've tried reinstalling systemd, but not its dependencies.
Maybe systemd had a user or group that got lost from the files?

Report Builder Wizard and Parameter Creation with values from other data source e.g. data set or views for non-IT users or Business Analysts

Hi,
"Report Builder is a report authoring environment for business users who prefer to work in the Microsoft Office environment.
You work with one report at a time. You can modify a published report directly from a report server. You can quickly build a report by adding items from the Report Part Gallery provided by report designers from your organization." - As mentioned
on TechNet.
I wonder how a non-technical business analyst can use Report Builder 3 to create ad-hoc reports/analysis with list of parameters based on other data sets.
Do they need to learn TSQL or how to add and link parameter in Report Builder? then How they can add parameter into a report. Not sure what i am missing from whole idea behind Report builder then?
I have SQL Server 2012 STD and Report Builder 3.0 and want to train non-technical users to create reports as per their need without asking to IT department.
Everything seems simple and working except parameters with list of values e.g. Sales year List, Sales Month List, Gender etc. etc.
So how they can configure parameters based on Other data sets?
Workaround in my mind is to create a report with most of columns and add most frequent parameters based on other data sets and then non-technical user modify that report according to their needs but that way its still restricting users to
a set of defined reports?
I want functionality like "Excel Power view parameters" into report builder which is driven from source data and which is only available Excel 2013 onward which most of people don't have yet.
So how to use Report Builder. Any other thoughts or workaround or guide me the purpose of Report Builder, please let me know.
Many thanks and Kind Regards,

Hi Asam,
If we want to create a parameter depend on another dataset, we can additional create or add the dataset, embedded or shared, that has a query that contains query variables. Then use the option that “Get values from a
query” to get available values. For more details, please see:http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dd283107.aspx
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dd220464.aspx
As to the Report Builder features, we can refer to the following articles:http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/hh213578.aspx

Hope this helps.

Reader 9.5.1 Crashes after a few seconds for non-Admin users

I have Adobe Reader 9.5.1 installed on some Citrix XenApp 5.0 servers that are Windows 2003. Any time a non-admin user launches Reader it is open for a matter of seconds and then crashes. It shows a Dr Watson crash in the error logs each time. If I logon as an Administrator, it works just fine. I've tried reinstalling/repairing the installation to no avail.
Has anybody run into this in the past or does anyone have any ideas on how to fix it?

My company is into same issue but thing is that I cannot uninstall the MS patch as it will be vulnerability for our servers and we have opened a case with MS and they have reveiwed the proc dump and now MS is asking to get this reviewed with Adobe. I'm not sure how to reach out to Adobe Support to get the fix from them. Any solution on this regard, it will be great help. Thanks, Sayed.
