Preventing files being attached in PM.

Firstly, I would like to prevent users from being able to attach files to equipment records, work orders etc. How can this be done?
Secondly, is it possible to prevent users from attaching files to pieces of equipment but allow them to attach URLs (using the 'Create external document (URL)' menu item)?
Basically my organisation would like to allow users to link to image files relating to equipment (which would be stored on a common drive) but not allow images to be uploaded to SAP.
Thanks,
Rich

HI,
Give the T-code authorization to display in the authorization role's menu add transaction.
System automatically asks you to edit the authorization and takes you to the DMS node of authorizations.
Here you can restrict as per the document type, plant etc .
Points if helpful!
Thanks ,
bye

Unknown files being attached to outgoing mail

I recently sent an email to a friend who is on an AOL acct.
I attached a JPEG to the email, and that came across fine.
Also attached to the email were 4 .txt files (0001.txt, 0002.txt, etc)
These files contained 'gibberish' according to the recipient.
These files are not found on my computer.
Any idea how they got there and if this is preventable?
Thanks!
Steve

Most Mac files consist of two segments - a data fork and a resource fork. The resource fork for a Mac file is invisible to fellow Mac users but not to Windows users.
See this link.
http://www.macdisk.com/macforken.php3
When using send Windows Friendly Attachments with the Mail.app, the resource fork for an attached file will not be available/shown to a Windows user.
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?path=Mail/2.0/en/ml1014.html
If this does not remove all the additional files included with an attachment, try using Plain Text for message composition instead of Plain Text.

How do I prevent files from being backed up to iCloud and iTunes?

I have created the ios app using adobe AIR16 and flash cc. After submission of my aap into aapstore, I received a message from Apple with the following message –
From Apple
2.23 - Apps must follow the iOS Data Storage Guidelines or they will be rejected.
By using xcode we can prevent files from being backed up to icloud and itunes, but i want to know that what is the way to achieve this by using AIR. While creating an explicit app id from apple developer account , i am not enabling icloud support.

Within AIR you can set the File.preventBackup property to true on a directory or file to prohibit that content from being backed up to the cloud:
File - Adobe ActionScript® 3 (AS3 ) API Reference
This is all you need to call when you first create the folder or file to have it work with iOS backup guidelines.

How do I attach a file to a Mail doc without the file being opened in the Mail document?

How do I attach a file to a Mail doc without the file being opened in the Mail document?

You will (often) see a preview of the attachment, depending upon the file type. To get rid of the preview: control click on the attachment select "View as icon".
(What the recipient of your message sees is dictated by that person's email application. If you want to make sure the person gets an attachement which is not previewed, you can zip it (control-click, "Compress...") and then attach the zipped file(s). Or you can try something like Attachment Tamer.)

Preventing files form accidentally being deleted

Is there a way to prevent users from deleting files from an external drive while still allowing for read/write? Rather than a file being immediately deleted (bypassing the trash can) it goes to a temporary folder where admin deletes it?

If a user has an external drive connected to their local computer the normal behaviour is that when a file is deleted it is moved in to their own Trash folder. Their own trash folder is located at
~/.Trash
aka.
/Users/username/.Trash
If the user is accessing the external drive via a network file server then things are different. In the past there used to be a network trash folder however Apple no longer really support this approach. Instead what happens is that when a user tries to delete a file from the network file server they get a message saying -
Are you sure you want to delete "name of item"?
This item will be deleted immediately. You can't undo
this action.
If they click the Delete button then the item is as per the message deleted immediately.
The options are -
1. Educate users to pay attention to this message
2. If needed restore from a backup
3. Set the permissions to allow read, write but not delete. However many applications save files by creating a temporary copy of a file to hold the changes being made, and when you click save they then delete the original file and rename the temporary file to the previous name. This will not work if you set the permissions to disallow file deletion.

Including location file in Attachment of IP_MESSAGE_TYPE to B2B

Dear Reader,
I am using SOA suite 10.1.3.4. and B2B 10g configured in Suse.
I have made a BPEL proces that enqueues messages using an AQ adapter to the B2B database. For this I need to fill in the IP_MESSAGE_TYPE (payload header) that is required by EBxml that is set in the B2B Application. I have set the MSG_ID, FROM_PARTY, TO_PARTY, DOCTYPE_NAME, DOCTYPE_REVISION, ACTION_NAME, MSG_TYPE occording to the configurations done in the B2B application. This works perfectly and the message is picked up by the B2B application.
During new requirement I need to send an attachment to the B2B application that communicted this to the trading partner (using EBxml). THe moment I fill in the attachment the message produces errors in the B2B Application and I don't know what I am doing wrong. I would like to know if somebody can tell me in steps how I need to fill in the attachment in the payload header. I have tried the following:
1. Using an assign activity to fill the attachment field in the payload header with the expression: 'file:///home/oracle/b2b/attachments/inbound/example.xml'
The error 'Unable to create the protocol specific B2B message' arrise in the B2B application.
2. I have followed the steps in link:
https://metalink2.oracle.com/metalink/plsql/f?p=130:14:4427741198166476399::::p14_database_id,p14_docid,p14_show_header,p14_show_help,p14_black_frame,p14_font:NOT,754149.1,1,1,1,helvetica
I have created the xsd AttachmentsDescriptor.xsd in my local bpel process and assign the below XML fragment to the attachment field in the payload header.
<Attachments xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:noNamespaceSchemaLocation="AttachmentsDescriptor.xsd" version="1.0" boundary="boundary---">
<AttachmentPart>
<Location>file:///home/oracle/b2b/attachments/inbound/example.xml</Location>
<Content-Type>
<Top-Level-Type>application</Top-Level-Type>
<Sub-Type>xml</Sub-Type>
</Content-Type>
</AttachmentPart>
</Attachments>
This time no error occured everything seem to work, but in the B2B database there is no attachment specified in the wire message.
I hope somebody can explain me what I am doing wrong and what the steps in BPEL/B2B are to fix my problem.
Thanks for your time.
Regards,
Sander

Hi Anuj,
Thanks for your reply. I have tested it on the server and it works. I am now busy to make it work with my BPEL proces. I am doing the following:
1. I am using a file adapter to store the sample.xml file on the configurated directorie specified in "oracle.tip.adapter.b2b.attachments.dir"
2. I pass the name of the file in this case Sample.xml in the field Attachment of IP_MESSAGE_TYPE (other mandatory fields of IP_MESSAGE_TYPE are filled)
My question is if I can make it work without step 1 to prevent extra I/O on the server. I would like to fill the Attachment of IP_MESSAGE_TYPE in such a way that I don't need the Sample.xml and that my attachment is picked up directly from the server. I am wondering how I can achieve this (if its possible).
My last question is if there is any good documentation for B2b 10g how I should configure the environment to prevent connections being kept alive when enqueuing message using AQ adapter.
Thanks for your time and help so far.
Regards,
Sander

Cannot see most recent files when attaching

I've had this problem for a while. Currently using OS X Mavericks, 10.9.4 (latest version) and Mail 7.3 (also latest build). Saved a file to Documents, then opened Mail and attempted to attach it. Finder window opens, but my most recent files viewed are "last 7 days," with "today" being completely missing. I can open the Finder independently, the files show, I can open the files, send the file as an attachment from the Finder itself. But for quite some time, I don't see my most recent files (like today's files) in Finder when first opening Mail and attempting to attach something from a new message or message reply. Very frustrating.
Anyone know what's going on here? I've experienced this before, but this is the first I realized that it seems as if it only happens when I am searching for a file to attach, and not when I open the Finder directly. I know there are workarounds, but I would just like to be able to do this simple thing, and for the life of me, I cannot do it. Not sure how long this has been going on, but I think it was happening in Mavericks all along, I just didn't connect the dots.
Thanks.

I can't duplicate the issue. What type of file is it? Is it saved locally, in the cloud, external drive?

Not able to send pdf file as attachment in my apple mail.

Hi, I was easily able to attach pdf files to my apple mail. infact I could just open a pdf file and then send it as attachment in the email earlier. but after downloading and upgrading to os X Mountain lion, I am neither being able to attach and send pdf files in my apple mail, nor can I send PDF file as an attachment.
Is there any issue with OS X Mountain Lion.
Issue 1. I compose Email , then click attach > Browse > select pdf file > click attach > it shows in my Email body either as an icon or as first page of the pdf document > I send it. >>> But when the receipient opens the Email, that pdf attachment is missing. In fact When I put a cc to my self and I open the Email, the attachment is mssing in the incoming E amil.
Issue 2. I open the PDF document > Click on File > send as attachment in E-Mail > on right, a menu appears where I select the File and click attach> I get a message
The SendMail doesnot know how to talk to your default mail client. Please select a different mail application to use. Attaching a screen shot.
I never had these issues earlier with my Lion OS . but since the time I have upgraded to mountain Lion OS, I am having these issues.
Are these the Mountain Lion issues, how to fix these please.

I believe, the software team forgot to put a button for send or share as an attachment to preview.

Help? Adobe Acrobat 11 Standard - just purchased for windows 7 now I can't open pdf files or attach?

Help!!!
I just puchased the latest Adobe Acrobat XI Standard.
I put in the Serial Key number but my computer tells me that a qualifying product could not be found on my computer so I can't use the adobe product. So now I can't open any files or attach pdf files onto emails without this message coming up. I've un-installed the "Adobe Acrobat XI Standard twice! with no luck.
I need it sorted ASAP as I'm trying to work! Any suggestions?

DotBellaParis if you are being asked for a qualifying product then it would appear you purchased an upgrade to Acrobat XI Standard. You should have the opportunity to enter the serial number for your previous purchase of Acrobat. You can find information on how to locate your previous serial numbers at http://forums.adobe.com/message/3987968#3987968?promoid=KBHJW.
If you did not intend to purchase an upgrade then I would recommend submitting a return request. You can find more details on submitting a return at Return, cancel, or exchange an Adobe order - http://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/policy-pricing/return-cancel-or-change-order.html. Once you have returned the upgrade you can then purchase the full version which will not ask you for a qualifying product or serial number.

Can't find file to attach - still

I'm having what appears to be a fairly common problem with my Mail app, but I haven't seen a solution listed, other than some workarounds. Specifically, I can create a new doc and save it to a folder on my desktop, for instance; but if I then open Mail and ask it to attach the new file, it will not display the new file in its search window. I can open the file on my hd and see the doc, but Mail won't display it. Sometimes, if I close Mail and reopen it will find it, but not always. And yes, I can drag the doc into the mail window to attach it....but is that the only solution??
I know this is a common problem of long duration - the problem was discussed a while ago in this forum (see:Mail can't see recent files to attach)
and also there's a very current discussion of the same problem in Tiger, in the Mail:Tiger discussion, under the topic: Finding Attachments.
Lots of reports of the same thing. Did I miss the solution/explanation? Is there one?
thanks in advance

Hello all;
Thanks much. I do know about the drag and drop method, and use it most of the time. Just thought that if there's a feature available in an app, it should probably work.
However, you can also go up to the
FILE icon and choose attach file , the bad thing
there is you have to navigate through files and
folders to find the file to attach.
I also find if you have created a folder and placed
the file in the folder my expieriance has been that
you have to first remove the file from the folder if
you want to attach it, I don't think you can attach a
folder.
As far as navigating through files and folders - it's pretty much part of the everyday working life with a computer, isn't it? and so doesn't seem like a nuisance to me. And yes, you can attach a folder.
There is one other thing, Not all formats are
recognizable by all Mail Programs. Example: If you
have Microsoft Word for Mac and you copy a Word doc
and you send it to another user without word
sometimes this can cause an issue. This is only one
of several Formats that I am aware of that can cause
problems. Either you can't open them or you cant read
them.
Don
You can send anything you want; if the recipient can't open it, it's a problem for him, but it doesn't prevent you from sending it. And frequently you can open a doc in another app if you don't have the app it was created in: TextEdit will open Word docs, if necessary, and Preview can open image files and pdfs if you don't have, Pshop or Reader.
Anyhow, thanks for the info, guys. Back to drag & drop.

Converting Sender File as attachment using PayloadSwapBean module

Hi Expert,
I have a scenario where I have to pick up a file from PI & send it to another PI server as an attachement using XI Adapter.
I went through SDN & found several messages describing configuration for attachement for mail & SOAP adapter.
I attached PayloadSwapBean in my sender File channel & passed keyname as Conent-Disposition & keyValue as attachment however I dont see file being converted as an attachment in SXMB_MONI. It still shows it as main payload.
Please help me on how to convert a sender file payload into attachement. I would like to keep attachment name same as file name. Let me know how we can do that. I also noticed that on receiver XI adapter (which I would be using to send data to next PI system), you can't attach modules. Let me know if there is some other standard way of achieving this requirement.
Thanks
Regards
Sushil

Hi Stefan,
No, I dont see dynamic configuration values in second PI system. I am able to see them in first system.
Hi Amol,
Do you see dynamic configuration in second PI? I am still referring ASMA in second PI system as file parameters? Should it be HTTP header? (How are you referring ASMA in second PI). Below is my code which give me null at run time.
DynamicConfiguration dCon =(DynamicConfiguration) container.getTransformationParameters().get(StreamTransformationConstants.DYNAMIC_CONFIGURATION);
DynamicConfigurationKey dKey = DynamicConfigurationKey.create("http:/"+"/sap.com/xi/XI/System/File","Directory");
String FileDirectory = dCon.get(dKey);
return FileDirectory;

Get error message "this "**" file cannot be attached until the files already attached are finished uploading" even when attaching 1 file

I attached multiples .pdf files to an email. Tried to attach the next file before the previous 1 finished attaching. Got error message "this "**" file cannot be attached until the files already attached are finished uploading". Was never able to attach that 1 file to the email that I received the error message for; was able to attach subsequent files to that same email & send it. Now, I often get the same error message, even if I only attach 1 file & esp. when attaching .ai or .jpeg files. What can I do to fix this problem?

It looks like nobody has an answer for this despite of the 80 something views!
And here i thought Adobe admin would be monitoring the forum, but surprisingly, they don't even have the answer for this!!!

Is there a way I can use my external hard drive without the files being transferred on to my computer? as like like my iTunes music being on my hard drive without them being copied onto my computers hard drive ?

is there a way I can use my external hard drive without the files being transferred on to my computer? as like like my iTunes music being on my hard drive without them being copied onto my computers hard drive ? because i dont have that much memory and i wanted my external hard drive to be the source for my music files and not my computer.

Many users keep their iTunes libraries on external drives. You just have to remember to connect and power up the drive before launching iTunes.

Mail Receiver Adapter - Flat File as Attachment

Hello,
I would like to send a flat file as attachment using an E-Mail receiver communication channel.
The flatfile is picked up beforehand using a file sender channel, so there is only routing necessary in PI.
Is it possible to send the flatfile as attachment by checking the option "XIPAYLOAD" or would this result in an error?
The scenario is quite simple and I am looking for the fastest and easiest way to implement it.
Thank you very much.
