RAR: Best strategy for users/roles/profiles synchronization

Hi all,
Assuming that:
1) we will be never interested about profiles risk analysis (just users and roles)
2) roles risk analysis will be run first and after sometime (threee weeks) we will run it for users.
and we will run batch risks analysis:
Question 1) Is it possible to synchronize just roles and do it for users just when we want to execute risk analysis for them? Or is a best practice to synchronize always for users/roles and profiles eventhough risk analysis will not be done for all three?
Question 2) If we execute just full sync and full risk analysis, users/roles or profiles deleted in backend between executions are also deleted from DB? or removal takes place only when executing incremental sync?
Many thanks in advance. Best regards,
Imanol

Hi Imanol,
Answer Q1: Yes, you can just select user and roles for the snych and risk analysis. Go to configuration-background jobs - shedule job. If you don't run risk analysis for profiles, you shouldn't sync and select them.
Answer Q2: Both, the Full risk analysis will alwaly update your DB. I will recommend you, to do this job in some periodic times. The incremental sync job will as well update your DB, if anything changed in the backend system. Normally your are going to run your daily or weekly jobs with this selection.
Thanks,
Martin

Trying to understand "User/Role/Profile Synchronization" and Batch Analysis

Hello,
Im trying to understand what exactly and from which tables these jobs are copying to which tables in CC. I have a understanding that these jobs are moving also deleted roles from backend. This is causing unnecessary delay to long lasting job.
I would appreasite if some one could explain the logic behind these jobs. What the fullsync and incremental is reading ? What kind of changes are causing a role/user/profile to be included to the full and incremental jobs?
How the incremental analysis logic is built ?
br Janne

Janne,
In my current implementation we are going for an offline risk analysis due to the heteregoneus system landscape of our client (several SAP and non SAP systems and several SAP systems under 4.6C). Eventhough within our approach we don't perfrom the backend synchronization (we use CC data extractor to pull data from backend into CC) hope the following info could hel you:
The tables such jobs you mention access to, are all the SAP backend system tables related with users, roles, profiles, action and permissions. If you check the data mapping appendix of the "user and configuration guide for 5.2" you will see all the data that CC retrieves. For instance, in order to extract user info (UserID, FName, LName, Email, Phone, Email, Department) tables USR21, USR02, ADRP, ADR6 and ADCP must be accessed.
In terms of CC tables:
VIRSA_CC_SYSUSR >> UserIDs and Systems ID relationship
VIRSA_CC_GENOBJ >> User, Role and Profile master data
VIRSA_CC_GENACT >> User-action, role-action and profile-action data
VIRSA_CC_GENPRM >> User-permission, role-permission and profile-permission
VIRSA_CC_SAPOBJ >> Action-permission
VIRSA_CC_OBJTEXT >> Objects descripcions (ACT, PRM, FLD, VAL, ORG)
Hope this helps.

Error while scheduling Background Job for User/Role Full Synchronization

Hi all,
We have installed RAR 5.3 Component and uploaded the authorization data & established the connectors to the backend system.
We have performed all the post installation activities and everything is complete.

Hi,
We are copy pasting the error log (Part as it is huge) below here. We could able to do Full Synch for Roles and also for Profiles. Only for User Synch we are getting this error and none of the users are sychronized to RAR

User, Role, Profile Synchronization Job Fails

Hi Gurus,
When I am scheduling a job the User, Role, and Profile Sync. job fails giving an error
"Cannot assign a java.lang.String object of length 53 to host variable 5 which has JDBC type VARCHAR(40)."
This happens when the synchronization happens with a portal system. We dont have a ruleset for the portal system, So if I put in a "*", it includes this system and results in the error, If I manually select all other system, it works fine. Is there any way to remove this error so that I can schedule the jobs without having to select every system manually.
Regards,
Chinmaya

Hi,
As per my knowledge, in the Portal system, you should perform only user sync. Roles/profile sync will not work since portal will have workset roles.
Please refer SAP Note 1168120, which may help you to understand the limitations
Hope this helps!!

User, Role, Profile Synchronization - Full sync job

I've scheduled this job and it's been running since feb 2. I understand that this job brings only the header data into CC tables. When I look at the CC log file.- It says Delete user XXXX from all tables. I checked the userid in the backend system it actually does not exist.

Compliance Calibrator 5.2 user/role/profile sync

I have run into an issue with a user. Where the user is getting flagged as having risks associated in basis for having a combination of transactions. Under CC it is saying that she has S_Develop Auth Obj with Activity 1 and 2. However when we check the user in R3 all of her profiles and roles that have a Basis associated and have the auth object she has activity 3. So the information is not synchornizing properly.
Thanks for any help

when was the last time you ran a user/role/profile synchronization or a batch risk analysis for this user ?
In case you need more info, check : https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/sdn/go/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/50cd7177-5c22-2a10-8cba-8e0c64bc4ea8

VIRSA tables for users, roles and profiles sync?

Hello,
I am in a customer, implementing CC 5.2. At the first time, we tried CC 5.2 in DEV environment, and when everything was OK, we redirect RFC connectors to QA environment.
After doing user, roles and profiles sync in DEV and in QA environment too, I have 4.500 user (1.100 from DEV + 3.400 from QA) when I recover all users "*" with "user level - risk analysis" from the "Informer" tab.
It seems that "users, roles, profiles, sync" works like and "APPEND", but I did a COMPLETE syncronization not an INCREMENTAL.
If I start an analysis for QA environment, CC works properly and only analyse QA users (3.400). But I would like to clean CC tables (users, roles and profiles) in order to have a clean copy of QA in CC.
Which VIRSA tables (users, roles and profiles) I need to clean?
It is necessary to do the same with authorization and text objects? Which would be these tables?
Thanks in advance,
Victor

Hi all,
SAP GRC Support provides a script which allows you to remove a connector since it does delete all data link to it. Anyway, I would recommend a deep analysis of it and find out if it does what you really want to do.
Víctor, if what you want to do it is just to remove all user, role and profile master data (stored in tables VIRSA_CC_SYSUSR and VIRSA_CC_GENOBJ) you could upload a text file using data extractor functionality with the delete field set to X. Doing so user, role and profile master data will be removed from CC database.
In order to use data extraction functionlaity you connector must be of type "File Local".
Be careful about removing data directly from DB since, as Prem states, you might loose the DB consistency.
Hope it helps. Best regards,
Imanol

2) what exact roles /profiles need to be assigned to these users in satellite systems .
3) what users/roles /profiles needs to be done in SOLMAN system
i have applied all the required plug ins and support packs
in satellite systems and solman 40 ..
Please advice . Your response will be a great help for me .

Best strategy for variable aggregate custom component in dataTable

Hey group, I've got a question.
I'd like to write a custom component to display a series of editable Things in a datatable, but the structure of each Thing will vary depending on what type of Thing it is. So, some Things will display radio button groups (with each radio button selecting a small set of additional input elements, so we have a vertical array radio buttons and beside each radio button, a small number of additional input elements), some will display text-entry fields, and so on.
I'm wondering what the best strategy for tackling this sort of thing is. I'm sort of thinking I'll need to do something like dynamically add to the component tree in my custom component's encodeBegin(), and purge the extra (sub-) components in encodeEnd().
Decoding will be a bit of a challenge, maybe.
Or do I simply instantiate (via constructor calls, not createComponent()) the components I want and explicitly call their encode*() and decode() methods, without adding them to the view tree?
To add to the fun of all this, I'm only just learning Faces (having gone through the Dudney book, Mastering JSF, and writing some simpler custom components) and I don't have experience with anything other than plain vanilla JSP. (No EJB, no Struts, no Tapestry, no spiffy VisualDevStudioWysiwyg++ [bah humbug, I'm an emacs user]). I'm using JSP 2.0, JSF 1.1_01, JBoss 4.0.1 and JDK 1.4.2. No, I won't upgrade to 1.5 (yet).
Any hints, pointers to good sample code? I've looked at some of the sample code that came with the RI and I've tried to navigate the JSF Blueprints stuff, but I haven't really found anything on aggregating components into a custom component. Did I miss something obvious?
If this isn't a good question, please let me know how I can sharpen it up a bit.
Thanks.
John.

Hi,
We're doing something very similar. I had a look at the Tomahawk Date component, and it seems to dynamically created InputText components in the encodeEnd(). However, it doesn't decode this directly (it only expects a single textual value). I expect you may have to check the request yourself in decode().
Other ideas would be appreciated, though - I'm still new to JSF.

Best strategy for migrating GL 6 DW CS4?

First I gotta say that -- as decade-long user of several Adobe products -- Adobe has really screwed over long-time users of Adobe Golive. After a week of messing around with something that should be a slam dunk (considering the substatial amount of $ I've paid to Adobe over the years for multiple copies of GoLive 5, 6 and CS2), I can tell you Adobe's GL > DW migration utility ONLY works for sites created FROM SCRATCH in GL CS2 (they must have the web-content, web-data folder structure). This means that Adobe's migration utility only works for maybe 10% - 15% of the GoLive sites out there, and about 10% - 15% of Adobe's loyal GoLive customers, and it particularly screws over Adobe's longtime GoLive customers. Sweet! ( (Just like Adobe screwed over users of PhotoStyler -- which was a better image editor than PhotoShop, BTW.) Obviously, I would walk away from Adobe and make sure I never ever paid them another cent, but the Republican-Democrat "free market economy" has made sure I don't have that option.
So I've gotta make Dreamweaver work, which means I've gotta migrate several large sites (the biggest has 5,000 static pages and is about 2 gigs in size) from GoLive 6 (or GoLive CS2 with the older folder structure) to Dreamweaver CS4.
Which brings me to my question -- what's the best strategy for doing ths? Adobe's migration utility is a bad joke, so here's the alternative, real world plan I've come up with. I'd apreciate any suggestions or comments...
1) create copies of all my GL components in the content folders for my GL site (not in the GoLIve components folder)
2) replace the content of all GoLive compnents (in the GoLive components folder) with unque character strings, so that instead of a header with images and text, my old header would look something like xxxyyyzzz9
3) create a new folder called astoni in the root of my hard drive. Copy all my GoLIve web site content (HTML, images, SWF, etc.) into astoni in exactly the structure it was in with GL
4) create a new Dreamweaver site by defining astoni as the local location for my site, astoni\images as the location for images, etc.
5) use Dreamweaver and open the newly defined astoni site. Then open each of the GoLive components I copied into a content level folder in astoni, and drag each into the Dreamweaver Assets/Library pane, in order to create library items just like my old GoLive components
6) use Dreamweaver to Search & Replace out the unique text strings like xxxyyyzzz9 with the content of my new DW library items
7) refresh site view to make all the links hook up...
Thanks for your help. Hope this discussion helps others too...

Instead of ragging on people who are familiar with DW and Site Development, you should be gracious and accept the practical advice you've been given. A "best strategy" would be to read some tutorials and learn how to work with HTML, CSS and server-side technologies. Without some basic code skills, you're going to find DW an uphill, if not impossible battle.
Frankly, I don't have free time to hand-hold someone through the excruciating process of migrating a 5,000 page static site from GoLive to DW. And I doubt anyone else in this forum has either. We're not Adobe employees. We don't get paid to participate here. We are all product users JUST LIKE YOU.
I'm sorry you're frustrated. I'm also sorry for your clients. But the problem you have now isn't Adobe's fault. It's yours for not keeping up with server-side technologies or handing-off these huge static sites to more capable web developers. I'm not saying you need to buy anyone's books, but they are good resources for people willing to learn new things.
That said, maybe you should stick with GoLive. The software doesn't have an expiration date on it and will continue working long into the future. If you're happy using GL, keep using it to maintain your legacy sites. At the same time learn X/HTML, CSS & PHP or ASP. Use DW CS4 for the creation of new projects.

Search for user role but help poppup display

Anyone ever trying to search for user role from search action bar or user admin page?
Whenever select role and clicked on the magnifying glass icon, help content displays instead of role selection.
At first I think this is a bug. But when I asked Customer Care they said its an expected behaviour which means that this is how the engineers designed it.
Dont you feel weird? because other field like status, correctly displays status info after clicking the icon.
Hope u can try it this out and give your opinion here.

Can you provide a little more detail on what you were trying to do.

What's best strategy for dealing with 40+ hours of footage

We have been editing a documentary with 45+ hours of footage and presently have captured roughly 230 gb. Needless to say it's a lot of files. What's the best strategy for dealing with so much captured footage? It's almost impossible to remember it all and labeling it while logging it seems inadequate as it difficult to actually read comments in dozens and dozens of folders.
Just looking for suggestions on how to deal with this problem for this and future projects.
G5 Dual Core 2.3 Mac OS X (10.4.6) 2.5 g ram, 2 internal sata 2 250gb

Ditto, ditto, ditto on all of the previous posts. I've done four long form documentaries.
First I listen to all the the sound bytes and digitize only the ones that I think I will need. I will take in much more than I use, but I like to transcribe bytes from the non-linear timeline. It's easier for me.
I had so many interviews in the last doc that I gave each interviewee a bin. You must decide how you want to organize the sound bytes. Do you want a bin for each interviewee or do you want to do it by subject. That will depend on you documentary and subject matter.
I then have b-roll bins. Sometime I base them on location and sometimes I base them on subject matter. This last time I based them on location because I would have a good idea of what was in each bin by remembering where and when it was shot.
Perhaps, you weren't at the shoot and do not have this advantage. It's crucial that you organize you b-roll bins in a way that makes sense to you.
I then have music bins and bins for my voice over.
Many folks recommend that you work in small sequences and nest. This is a good idea for long form stuff. That way you don't get lost in the timeline.
I also make a "used" bin. Once I've used a shot I pull it out of the bin and put it "away" That keeps me from repeatedly looking at footage that I've already used.
The previous posts are right. If you've digitized 45 hours of footage you've put in too much. It's time to start deleting some media. Remember that when you hit the edit suite, you should be one the downhill slide. You should have a script and a clear idea of where you're going.
I don't have enough fingers to count the number of times that I've had producers walk into my edit suite with a bunch of raw tape and tell me that that "want to make something cool." They generally have no idea where they're going and end up wondering why the process is so hard.
Refine your story and base your clip selections on that story.
Good luck

Best strategy for buring dual layer DVD

I've got a project that won't fit on a single layer DVD, so I've got it set up for dual layer and "best quality" which results in a 7.38GB disk image. However, iDVD 8 warned me when burning the disk images that some utilities may not be able to burn a reliable dual layer disk copy and to use iDVD instead, does this include Disk Utility?
I always use Disk Utility to make copies, iDVD took almost 7 hours to burn the disk image, I can't afford to wait that long for each copy. So what's the best strategy for burning dual layer DVDs?

subsequent copies burn in far less time immediately after the first provide you don't quit iDvd
If you know ahead of time you'll need more than a few copies, I'd recommend burning from a disc image to the desktop and reducing the burn speed (4x or lower) I prefer to use Roxio Toast myself. But others have had success with Apple's Disc Utilities as well.

Table for User Status Profile

hi
Please tell anybody what is the table for User Status Profile in Sales Orders? where it will stores?
Regards
Rajendra

Hi,
Use table JEST
Here you will have to enter the object number as an input field
Get object number from table VBAK or VBAP based on whether the status profile is attached at sales order header or at sales order item.
Status which is active will start with letter E and the status inactive flag will be blank.
