Question on deactivating a user

Hi Siebel Gurus,
I would like to know what should be the correct way of deactivating a user. Should I set the Role to INACTIVE first before setting the Status to Inactive? Also, after setting the Status to Inactive, can I still see the records owned by that particular user?
Thanks,
Teena

Teena,
You should only need to make the user inactive so they can't log in any more, although I have seen a customer make a role of INACTIVE with everything unticked as well.
There is a good Blog on what to do if forecasting is involved on the CRM OnDemand Learning blog.
http://blogs.oracle.com/crmodtraining/2008/11/when_an_employee_leaves_1.html
You will still have visibility of their records unless you have set specific visibility so if you are not the owner of a record you won't be able to see it, and you'd know if that was the case as you wouldn't be able to see their records when they were active either.
regards
Alex

Questions for the end users in Building an application.

Questions for the end users in Building an application.
Hello,
I am assigned a project in building a CF application. As far
as the business requirements, I have an idea from the MIS people.
However, I have a meeting with direct users and I have to ask
questions to add to my requirements. I am still a beginner in this
but I need to ask questions.
Can anyone give me tips? what basic / important questions?

For starters,
DO:
Ask them to discuss what they want to do with the application
Try to understand their level of computer literacy
Keep your conversation non-technical
Continue to interact with the users during the design and
development process
Try to identify a "champion" with whom you can interface as the
project progresses
DON'T:
Use technical terms or discuss technical issues
Talk down to them
Promise delivery dates until you have documented their
requirements and they have approved them

Deactivating Portal users

I was deactivating a user using the portal user maintenance API, 'deactivate_portal_user' passing in the portal user name. I called this procedure on a trigger from Forms, it looked as if it worked in forms but when I tried to log on in Single sign on I was allowed to which is not what I expected to happen.
Am I correct in assuming that I can deactivate a user in forms using the api. If so can you shed any light I what may have went wrong
Thank You.

Mervyn,
single sign-on uses mod_osso and the SSO server to check if a user has been authenticated or not. All user information is stored in OID. Don't know what happens after you execute your Portal procedure, but it is actually not logging off the single sign-on user. There is a API on teh Single Sign-On Server (I think its a Java API) that allows you to propagate single sign-offs which then leads to all sso accounts getting disconnected from teh session.

Questions from a debian user

Hi All,
I'd like to give Arch a try on an older laptop. Just some basic questions from a debian user:
1) I'd like to use xfce. I had trouble finding exactly what to download. Is there a boot-only.iso? I'd like to install the minimum and pull the rest off of the Web.
2) I'm using the debian testing release and enjoy its balance between stability and newer software. It also keeps me sharp and climbing up the learning curve. Should I try Arch's testing release?
3) That's about it. I'll learn the rest once I have it up and running.
Thanks Much,
ab

Trace deactivated for user SAPSYS

hi,
I see the following message in the sap system for one application server only for ENQ Process
I see the message in SM21
Trace deactivated for user SAPSYS
I could not find any other details of the sam
Please let me know of what can be the reason for the same

Check Security Audit setting in SM19 to see if by any chance theres a trace enabled for SAPSYS that is failing to "activate".... Long shot but worth trying.

A few Questions For A New User

Hi, I did a quick search, but did not get direct answers, so I am posting this thread as a group of new user questions (to save forum space). Sorry that they might cover more than one "Forum Category", but they are at least all iPhone 4 questions. Its also pretty sad that none of this is in a manual. As a matter of fact, there is no users manual !, what ever happen to the days where you got a correctly explained Users Manual with a $600 product that is 5" tall ? lol
Ok, yesterday I just bought a iPhone 4. I am running iOS 4.2.1 (the currently latest iOS as I type this).
Questions:
1- Exactly who can communicate with me on "FaceTime" ? Only other iPhone users with it ? Or is it part of iChat ? AOL ? What ?
2- On the opening/home page of the iPhone where you have all them little boxes of app's or stuff (Phone, Contacts, Mail, Safari, Settings, YouTube, iPod, etc..) how can I move them in the order I want them ? And also delete ones I do not want or will never need ? (like YouTube, Stocks, and Game Center)
3- On my older phone (and all older phones I've had including FREE Metro phones) I am able to bluetooth the phone to my laptop (or vice versa) to quickly transfer/send/receive files and stuff back and forth (photos, my voice notes, contact card files, etc..) via Bluetooth - Well I am trying it now with my iPhone, and my laptop sees the iPhone as a device, and even gets as far as a passkey thing, etc.. but the iPhone just sits there spinning its "connection wheel". Triple checked settings on both ends and connection, triple tested, etc.. and as my older phones do it no prob, under same settings, iPhone doesn't seem to bluetooth to my laptop for file sharing. NEITHER will it bluetooth to my other phones that all work elsewhere bluetoothing. Whats the deal ? Is this a known issue ?
4- I am absolutely astonished at the small amount of horribly lame ringtones/text tones, etc.. there is as choices on this iPhone. Is there anyway to get/buy/free download more of them and use them for various ring/tone and alert sources in the iPhone ? If so, where please ?
5- Where is the best place to get 100% supported apps for the iPhone ? Ones that are guaranteed to not cause system conflicts in the iPhone. Also, free ones ? And exactly how do you do it ?
6- Is there a "Extended Battery" available to buy for the iPhone 4 ? If so, whats the best one and where do I get it ?
7- Also, looking for the absolute BEST Bluetooth headset. Money of no concern, but quality of voice and hearing is. Along with intuitive features, etc.. Any suggestions ?
Thanks !

Hello there
1. For Facetime you can communicate with other iPhone 4 users, iPod Touch 4th generation users & Macs running 10.6.4 or later with the Facetime app.
2. To move apps into any order you want, tap and hold on an app until it starts to jiggle then just move them in any order you want. To create a folder drag one app on top of another. Default apps cannot be deleted however it can be moved.
3. Bluetooh file transfer does not exist on the iPhone possibly due to copyright laws.
4. For ringtones you can use your own. For text tones you can't unfortunately.
5. The only place to get Offical iPhone apps is the app store. All apps there are 100% safe and sandboxed.
6. Yes there is extended battery available, check the apple online store.
7. Don't have a suggestion. Sorry
Hopes this help ,

Questions to ask finance user

Hello,
My client have some FI flatfiles with caluclations in it they want bring that data to BI. today i have meeting with finance user he is going to explain me about all files. So can you please tell me what are the questions can i ask him
Thanks,
sam

ok
Are they multiple versions of the plan and forecast and how is he going to differntiate them?
At what level is the data going to be planned/forecasted - ie co code, gl account, cost centre?
Are the files already planned and just need to be uploaded or does he require a planning application like BPS or IP to do this for him
How are peopel going to upload this data? (we wrote at great expense a user initiated infopackage pload initiated from a VBA menu in Excel - or is he just going to give flat files)
Is the data P&L and/or Balance Sheets - and if so is the data cumulative or movements per period
Does the data contains any SKFs?
He is planning against hierarchy nodes? and the data has to be disaggregated down?
Does the data need to be currency converted and if s t what rate?
Do you ahve to keep multiple currency versions of the data ie you disaggregate per currency code ater converting it
Are youplannign to use GL acount FSVs to group the data and if you are using balance sheets do you need the balance sheet to flip the data based on the debit liabilities/credit assets to opposite FSV nodes
ANythign else - I will have to be there and charge you!

2 questions from a new user........

7/26
Hi! Forgive me but I am a new Iphone user and have 2 questions. 1) How/where do you find what the remaining
memory on your phone is after some apps have been added? 2) I have deleted the icon of a free app I downloaded
but understand that does not delete the content of the previously downloaded app. How/where do I delete the
content of a no longer needed app? Many thanks for your assistance. PA Dennis

Number one. Connect the iPhone to your computer, launch iTunes. Select the iPhone under Devices left side of the iTunes window. Select any of the taps to see storage availability at the bottom of the window.
Number two. Select Apps under Library left side of the iTunes window. Right or control click an app then click Delete.
Connect your iPhone to your computer, select the Apps tab from the menu then click Sync.

Questions from a New User

I have just started using LabVIEW 7.1 Student Edition w/ NXT Toolkit. I have a few questions I would like answered.
Loops: In NXT-G, you could make a loop run a certian number of times. How is that done in LabVIEW?
Variables: In NXT-G, Variables could be easily created. In LabVIEW, all I can find is the LOCAL variable. I can't figure this out.
Documentation: Where is a good user manual or set of tutorials?
How on Earth do arrays work?
I'd like it if someone can help me with these.
Team RoboSquad
http:\\teamrobosquad.blogspot.com

Hi RoboSquad -
You certainly ask lots of questions -- a good characteristic for a beginner to have! I don't have all the answers, but hopefully I can address some of your queries.
Loops: sounds like you've worked out the idea that you can watch the loop counter (i) of a while loop and wire a true value into the stop condition terminal when you've finished the number of iterations you want. Albert's comments are correct for "for" loops in full LabVIEW, but you're correct that the NXT Toolkit only includes "while" loops. Auto-indexing will still work; see my comment on arrays.
Variables: local variables are basically "references" to front panel indicators or controls, and can be read or written just like normal variables. But depending on what you're really trying to do, just adding a constant to the block diagram or using wires to pass a value to different parts of your program may be a better solution.
Documentation: the LabVIEW help is pretty extensive and comes with LabVIEW. You can also use the Example Finder to search for examples for a particular topic, including "while" and "array."
Arrays: from your post, it isn't clear to me whether you're completely unfamiliar with what an array is, or you're just confused by LabVIEW's implementation of them. If it's the former (what is an array?), your best bet is to use Google or Wikipedia to build some basic knowledge. If it's the latter (how do arrays work in LV?), try using the Example Finder to find and work through some examples. If you're still confused, try to ask a more specific question. One thing that may be confusing is that, by default, arrays don't have a type. If you drop an array constant on the block diagram, you get an array of <nothings> with a black border. To tell LV what types of values will be in that array, you have to drop a constant of that type inside the black box: a numeric constant, a boolean constant, a string constant, etc. Then the array constant which change color to match the data type it will hold, and you'll be able to type in values for the different elements of the array. Maybe that's the key realization you're missing?
Debug gray-out: when you turn on Execution Highlighting on a LV block diagram, LV will gray-out parts of the program it hasn't executed yet. Once the sensors have been read and are ready to be displayed, the meter indicator should get "re-colorized."
Input dup: "dup" is an abbreviation for "duplicate," meaning you'll get back the same value that you wired into "Input." This is purely an aesthetics thing; it makes block diagrams a little less messy. Rather than wiring one value separately to a whole bunch of subVIs in your program (and having wires going around all of your subVIs), you can instead wire that same value "through" each of the subVIs. This results in a clean-looking diagram where the subVIs look like traincars sitting on a "railroad track" of wires.
Whew! That was certainly a long post, but I hope it gave you some new ideas to investigate. Let us know when you have more questions!

Question on LDAP integration & user deletion

In the "Administration Console Help" Document it states:
"You cannot invite user accounts that are mastered in an LDAP-based user directory; these accounts are created automatically when you synchronize the LDAP directory."
Does this mean that after configuring a LDAP Realm, the users specified by the filter should be automatically pulled into OnTrack? I do not see ldap users when executing a blank search from the admin console. At this point, I also cannot log into OnTrack using a valid LDAP user. I was trying to see if OnTrack worked similar to UCM where the OnTrack user acct would be created once the user logs into the application.
What I can do is go to "Create User" and enter the email address for a valid ldap user. then I see that user in the full search. that user can also log in successfully.
I wanted to know what the expected behavior was: is there expected to be a required 'registry' of ldap users into ontrack before they can auth into the app? Is there some sync process that needs to be run to pull in the ldap users?
Also, is there any current best practice of user deletion? I see in the admin console that there is a note that states: "Note: User deletion is not supported."
As always, thanks for the info!
Thanks,
-ryan
Ryan Sullivan | ECMconsultant
http://www.ecmconsultant.net/

Ryan,
It sounds like you figured this out.
There is NOT an explicit sync of users from LDAP into On Track. The On Track user object is created when the LDAP user first logs in (or when added to a Conversation by another user). After that point, the user will be visible in the admin console. (Note, however, that from the client, you can search for an LDAP user and add them to a Conversation's membership even if that user has not yet logged in to On Track. It does this by searching for the user in the LDAP directory, as well as in On Track's known users. This is a great way to "invite" other people in the organization to participate in On Track.
As for your other questions:
- The recommended way to "delete" a user is to mark the user "Disabled" in On Track. This will prevent that user from logging in and from showing up as a valid user in the client.
- Once a user "[email protected]" exists, it should not be possible to create another "[email protected]" user, even if the first one is disabled, and regardless of which realm those users are in.

Platform compatibility question(s) from new user!

I'm confused.
I picked up Java a few days ago, with the intention of converting a long-standing JavaScript project that I have to run as an applet. I downloaded and installed the Java2 SDK (1.4) and associated runtime environment, and a simple but good IDE (JCreator 2).... and I'm happily developing applets to my heart's content. Cool language, by the way.
HOWEVER, none of my colleagues (on IE5/5.5 on Win2K/Millenium) can view my resulting efforts. Their browsers complain that they can't find the class. Works on mine, on-line, just not theirs. I've sadly made the assumption that it's because I've installed the 1.4 JRE and they haven't.
I REALLY want to use 1.4 to develop if I can. My JavaScript project that I'm converting is heavily dependant upon regular expression operations, and it would be a pity not to have them available - but platform compatibility is a must; this is a commercial project.
I'm missing something here, and I need to ask some really fundemental questions.
1. I was assuming that most browsers over 4.0 would support "Java2". Just what IS their level of support, by default. I hate new plug-ins, and the Java ones arent trivial!
2. I had thought that any flavour of Java2 (1.2/3/4) would work on the same virtual machine release, and that new features in 1.4 would simply compile to existing bytecode sequences. Am I wrong?
3. If I have to develop for maximum compatibility with earlier browsers, can I do this with 1.4 and some compiler switch, or do I have to download older SDKs?
4. If the worst comes to the worst, is there a class out there that handles regular expression "style" operations that will work on older releases of the language.
Sorry that there's a fair bit there to answer, but since I can't find this info ANYWHERE on the web, I guess I won't be the only newbie facing such issues.
Peter McKean.

just a few points to add to the other answer :
HOWEVER, none of my colleagues (on IE5/5.5 on
Win2K/Millenium) can view my resulting efforts. Their
browsers complain that they can't find the class.
Works on mine, on-line, just not theirs. I've sadly
made the assumption that it's because I've installed
the 1.4 JRE and they haven't.
Yeah the Java support in IE is whack. The m$ JVM never got past java 1.1.4 compatability for various reasons. So unless you want users to install the java 2 pluggins, you have to code applets with the java 1.1 api. You can still do this with a java 2 sdk - you just have to watch the parts of the api you use.
>>
2. I had thought that any flavour of Java2 (1.2/3/4)
would work on the same virtual machine release, and
that new features in 1.4 would simply compile to
existing bytecode sequences. Am I wrong?Yeah you are wrong ;) . When do do:
import java.<package>.<class>
you are telling the compiler where to find the classes you are about to re-use in your code. You are not including them in your final compiled class files. So when the program runs, it looks for the classes in the classpath. If you use classes that don't exist in an older jvm, the program won't run in that jvm. (Same as if a C or C++ program is dynamically linked to dlls (in Win32) or shared objects on unix - they need to be on the system that the program is executed on.)
hope this helps...

Question about SNMPv3 group/user configuration

I'm trying to do configure SNMPv3 on a 2811 router for the following:
- group ADMIN should allow user access from 10.10.1.0/24
- user IT is on group ADMIN, using MD5 authentication
Is the following the right configuration? should I configure engine-ID? should I put "access 1" to the "snmp-server user" command?
snmp-server group ADMIN v3 priv read READMIBS write WRITEMIBS access 1
snmp-server user IT ADMIN v3 auth md5 password
access-list 1 permit 10.10.1.0 0.0.0.255

Now I did pull off a way to hide groups based on the step contextuly without different profilesWould you mind sharing this with the community? It might be helpful for the others, and it could also help to move your question forward.
I am trying to imagine:
- one place where you can add idocScript to rules&profiles is Rules Activation Condition. Was this you way?
- if so, you could have several rules, under a single profile (my previous answer was a bit imprecise in that respect), and within the activation condition you can specify when you want the rule to apply, and in the rule itself you can then specify what fields, and whether a field should be editable or read-only, etc. Note that you can have multiple rules defining usage of the same metadata field - it is more transparent if activation conditions are mutually excluding
I'm still struggling with your pressure on showing/hiding groups. Could you describe it on a real-life example? Also, could you describe what is your way to display metadata within a workflow process?
My real example is as follows:
- an invoice document is scanned by a receptionist. It could be an A/P invoice for paying raw material, or office supplies (I think they had three major categories). Depending on that, the receptionist sends it to the appropriate department (by filling an option-list metadata)
- the head of department either accepts it, or sends it to the correct department. By accepting, he or she also fills in the responsible clerk to process the invoice (also an option-list)
- the clerk is no longer allowed to modify Dept and RespPerson metadata, but fills in other metadata like Supplier, Invoice Amount, etc. - those fields are not visible to previous reviewers at all
- etc.

Deleting the security question/answer from existing user

Hi there,
we activate the selfmanagement for password reset, that all users can enter their own
question and their answer.
Now we activate the predefined questions. I use a testuser and set a question and enter my answer an save.
At the test in the webdynpro for passwordreset there is still the old own question.
If I create a new user and enter the security credentials it works fine.
Can anyone help me, where I can delete the old entries from users without deleting and recreate all users ?

Authentication Questions Deleted When Saving User View

I am working with IDM version 6, SP1
We wish to start using the user self server reset password function.
Howerver, the user authentication questions and answeres keep getting deleted.
Any time a user view is checked out and checked back in, the questions are deleted.
This happens from the Admin Interface, from workflows, and even from the BPE.
Has anyone seen this before and if so is there a fix?
Upgrading is a concideration but is not on the "Todo" list for quite a while.
This is a real problem as it is stopping us from moving forward with user self serve password resets.

Mike F.

We have a similar issue with version 7.0. I had posted questions about it here (forums) and have an open bug report in with Sun.
Searching on another forum (which you may or may not have access to), it looks like there is a bug -- at least in in version 7.0 -- where several pages are +"doing a setViewId and not setting it to readonly, so a checkout was done on the user for every page"+. It sounds like this bug may be fixed in version 7.1 and later. If I search through the jsps, I see liberal calls to "form.setViewId()".
I haven't yet tried explicitly setting these calls to readonly (I don't even know what the syntax would be at this point). Your problem sounds somewhat different (ours only occurs on failed validations) but perhaps you are seeing a similar bug in version 6.
In case you are interested, my issue is described in this post:
http://forums.sun.com/thread.jspa?forumID=764&threadID=5414572
That's the problem description, not a description of the fix. And while it talks about a different problem, we also see cases where if a validation fails when the user is entering data, AuthN questions are deleted, which is what makes me think this may be a similar problem.
