Reg:: People and Groups Permission reports in sharepoint 2013

Hi Techys,
We have one SharePoinr 2013 team site, The total number of users for the site is 3200 members. Now my customer requirement is, they requested a report for people and groups and its permissions along with member names by group wise.
Example: I'm having one SharePoint 2013 team site named as "My Auditions", it contains 28 groups with different permission levels. Each group having minimum 70 users. Now we need a report for each group permission along with group members.
Kindly help me to getdown from the customer concern.
Many Thanks,
Madhu

I would suggest a tool like Metalogix ControlPoint. It can quickly produce nice looking reports for this type of information.

Hi Trevor,

in prod server without customer permission. even i'm having all uid and password as administrator.
Could you please suggest me is there any scripting or ootb features.
Many Thnaks,

Site administration link "people and groups" link breaks if you delete the excel services viewers group

Creating a HNSC using powershell, the default groups are not created. Used the UI method of creating the default groups.
However, if I delete the "excel services viewers" group, the site administration link "people and groups" breaks. I have attempted to "set the default group" again, after creating the "site default groups" as
mentioned above, but still no luck.
Anyone seen this? Should it be reported as a bug?
Joshua Fuente

Hi Joshua,
For troubleshooting your issue, you can create the default groups using the following PowerShell script and see the result:
Add-PSSnapin Microsoft.SharePoint.PowerShell
$currentUser = "$env:USERDOMAIN\$env:USERNAME"
$siteCollectionUrl = "http://manasbhardwaj.net"
$siteCollectionName = "Manas Dev Site"
$webApplicationUrl = "http://manas"
New-SPSite -Url $siteCollectionUrl -OwnerAlias $currentUser -Name $siteCollectionName -Language 1033 -HostHeaderWebApplication $webApplicationUrl -Template sts#0
$web = Get-SPWeb $siteCollectionUrl
$web.EnsureUser($currentUser)
$web.CreateDefaultAssociatedGroups($currentUser, "", "")

How to update a People and group field using a sandbox solution

Hi,
I am creating a sandbox solution for office 365 and creating a custom form using visual web part, which will allow users to enter data in a custom list.
And that list also have a user field. I am able to get SharePoint user field on the form (using javascript) which is searching for the user and get a value (working fine).
Issue: But I am not able to save the user value. Because to save user value I require web, UserID and login name, to construct SPFieldUserValue object or string in "111;#TestUser" format. Moreover that user should be present in
SiteUserInfoList.
I tried web.EnsureUser() but did not work under sanbox solution.
Can you please provide any pointer or workaround to the problem? I may be missing something here.
Thanks,
Himanshu

Hi,
According to your description, my understanding is that you want to update the people and group field in Sandbox solution.
In the sandbox solution, you can still use the web.EnsureUser() function to get the user information, see the thread below:
EnsureUser in sandboxed solution
In additional, there is a demo with your similiar requirement for your reference:
Using the People Picker Control in Sandbox Solutions / Office 365

People and group column become empty on EDIT ITEM

Hi,
I have 3 people and group columns(Peopleonly type) in my custom content type and list definition from the content type. When I EDIT an item from the list , the values in the 3 people and group column dissappear(meaning the fields are shown empty). Has
anybody come across this behaviour. Any solution/workaround ?

Hi Vipul,
Did this only happen to the EditForm.aspx page of that custom list ?
Is this EditForm.aspx page customized ?
Please also check whether there are some related errors in 14\LOGS.
Please re-create another new EditForm.aspx page using the SharePoint Designer 2010, then check result again.
Thanks

Known limit for how many characters can be entered in the To field when adding People and Groups ?

I am running MOSS 2007 SP1. I browse to site settings > People and groups and a group which has more than 60 members. I select all > Click Actions > Email Users. Nothing happens. I select less users, new outlook window comes up as it should. I am running outlook 2007. I first thought that the limit was 50 users, but different user selections let me select 51 users as well. I then concentrated on the character limit and I noticed that there were about 1580 characters in the To field when I selected 50/51 users.
Is there a known limit in sharepoint/outlook client for this function on how many characters can be entered in the To field?

Hello Amar,
This is a by-design behavior, not from SharePoint side, but Internet Explorer. The limitation by the 2083 characters in IE for the Max URL length is described in the following KB article:
(KB208427) Maximum URL length is 2,083 characters in Internet Explorer
http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;EN-US;208427
As a workaround, you may need to divide the list up and not send all the email at the same time. Hope it helps!
Best Regards,
Lionel

People and Groups not appearing in Address List

We have an Exchange 2013 deployment running on Windows 2012 Standard servers. Some of our people and all our groups are not showing up in the Outlook Address Book on people's client application. This despite the fact that "hide name from address book"
is unchecked on these people and groups.
This affects both those running Outlook and OWA.
Any idea how I can go about troubleshooting this?
----------- Ron E Biggs Chief Tech Officer Entertainment Studios

Hi,
From your description, I would like to clarify the following things:
1. Outlook in cached mode automatically updates the offline address book on the client every 24 hours. The 24-hour time period is measured from the time that the offline address book was last downloaded successfully. So sometimes new users can't be displayed
immediately on Outlook.
2. If you would like to show the dynamic distribution groups in “All Groups”, you can use the following cmdlet.
Set-AddressList -Identity "all groups" -RecipientFilter "(RecipientType -eq 'MailUniversalDistributionGroup' -or RecipientType -eq 'MailUniversalSecurityGroup' -or RecipientType -eq 'MailNonUniversalGroup' -or RecipientType -eq 'DynamicDistributionGroup')"
Here is a helpful thread for your reference.
Let the dynamic distribution groups be shown in “All Groups”

Weekly status report in SharePoint 2013

Hi
guys.
I
recently found a link that showed how to create a weekly status report in SharePoint 2010 using wikis: http://blogs.c5insight.com/Home/tabid/40/entryid/200/Creating-a-Weekly-Team-Status-Report-in-SharePoint-2010-Using-Wikis.aspx
I
am new to sharepoint and currently I am using sharepoint 2013.
I
created a wiki page library and the library contains wiki pages for every team member so
that each member can enter their own status information in it.
Now I would like to create a form inside the wiki page in which users
can submit their status reports on a weekly basis and then submit that.
The submitted information must be stored in a way (may be a document)
so that it can be reviewed by senior management. Also, I need a way to archive past
weekly status reports.
Can
someone guide me on this?
Thanks,
Ankit

You need to create a custom list with appropriate fields. Set up security so people can only see the items they have created. You can create a workflow in SharePoint Designer that alerts the appropriate people who need to approve it. Then, you can
edit a Wiki page and drop the list's web part on to the page.

Correct No. of Accounts and their Privileges for Installing SharePoint 2013 Developer Machine

Hi Dear SharePoint 2013 Experts,
I request you to kindly guide like; the Correct No. of Accounts and their Privileges for Installing SharePoint 2013 Developer Machine. Is there any step by step blog or Video on "Installing SharePoint 2013 Developer Machine".
Tried Installing ALL in one single Virtual Machine using account spDeveloper (which is a Member of "Administrators" and "Domain Admins" Group(s). Any kind of SharePoint Web-Application and/or Sites (Developer-Site, Team-Site, ....) can
be created including MySites and Intranet Sites.
But when tried creating SharePoint App Project in Visual Studio 2013 and deploying, stuck here with 2 weird Issues like;
1. This task requires the application to have elevated permission
2. Error occurred in deployment step 'Install App for SharePoint': The System Account can not perform this action
If Visual Studio 2013 is run NORMALLY (WITHOUT 'As Administrator'), it throws above 1st error - "This task requires the application to have elevated permission"
Because of the above 1st Issue, if the Visual Studio 2013 is run 'AS ADMINISTRATOR', it again throws an error (2nd error) - "Error occurred in deployment step 'Install App for SharePoint': The System Account can not perform this action"
How to over cum this "chicken and egg problem"??

What are the best practices for audit report for SharePoint 2013 farm ?

Hello,
I am looking for the best practices for audit reporting in SharePoint 2013 farm.Can anyone please provide me checklist/tools/guidelines on same ?
your help will be much appreciated.
Thanks and Regards,
Dipti Chhatrapati

This is quite open ended question. A sharepoint farm should be well maintained as per :
1. Microsoft's recommendations on : Topology, Hardware and Software requirements, Operational procedures and most important Capacity guidelines:
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ff758645(v=office.15).aspx
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc262787(v=office.15).aspx
2. Organisation's IT policies and procedures : Farm Configuration, Workload and monitoring
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ff758658(v=office.15).aspx
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ee748651(v=office.15).aspx
3. Industry best practices
I would suggest to start thinking over these lines and create a plan for your Sharepoint farm.
You can then create powershell scripts to run these reports at certain frequency to find the changes, any deviation from the standard and health of the entire farm.
Hope this helps!!
I LOVE MS..... Thanks and Regards, Kshitiz (Posting is provided "AS IS" with no warranties, and confers no rights.)

Power view reports in sharepoint 2013 :

How can i add alert and subscription for the power view report in sharepoint 2013 ?.
and please let me know the difference beetween the performance point service and power view report.
Please response fast.

Hi,
According to your post, my understanding is that you wanted to add alert and subscription for the power view report in sharepoint 2013.
You need to Additional Configuration to provision for subscriptions and alerts when you install Reporting Services SharePoint Mode for SharePoint 2013.
The Reporting Services subscription and data alert features may require the configuration of SQL Server Agent permissions. For more information, see
Provision Subscriptions and Alerts for SSRS Service Applications
PerformancePoint Services is a SharePoint Server 2013 service application. It enables users to create business intelligence (BI) dashboards that provide insight into an organization's performance. You can create custom reports, filters, tabular data sources,
and scorecard transforms to extend the native functionality of PerformancePoint Services.
Power View in SharePoint is browser-based Silverlight application, a feature of the SQL Server 2012 Service Pack 1 (SP 1) Reporting Services Add-in for Microsoft SharePoint Server 2010 and 2013. Creating, opening, and saving Power View reports (RDLX files)
all take place in SharePoint Server 2010 and 2013.

No choice we have to migrate to SQL Server 2012. The SQL Server 2012 SP1 version of the add-in and report server, add support for SharePoint Server 2013
QL Server 2008 R2 is server + Cal or Processor bases
Standard = $7,499 to $29,996
Enterprise = $28,749 to $229,992.
SQL Server 2012 User Server + Cal or Core-Based
Standard = $7,171 to $28,688
Enterprise = $13,748 to $137,480
SQL Server 2012 doesn’t cost more than SQL Server 2008 R2 but we have to admit that it contains a high number of significant new features. For the same price we can have a lot of more features in SQL and SharePoint! So if you want to use BI for SharePoint

How to deploy SSRS 2008 reports to Sharepoint 2013.

Hi,
Can some one guide me how to deploy SSRS 2008 reports to SharePoint 2013 by giving the exact steps from where to begin. We have all our reports deployed in SharePoint 2010.Need to migrate those reports to Sharepoint 2013 instance. I
also want to know how and where exactly we modify the connection strings to manage the data sources for the reports . Since I am very new to this field I am not able to properly understand other sites i have gone through . I have gone through the prerequisites
also.Kindly help me by providing step by step method.
Thanks,
Mridhula

If you don't just want to upgrade your database, simply open the report project (which should be on your local file system) and edit the report properties, changing the Report Server URLs appropriately to the new SharePoint server URLs.

How to disable the selection of "Title and logo URL of a SharePoint 2013 site" from browser

how to disable the selection of "Title and logo URL of a SharePoint 2013 site" from browser or How can we able to set our custom default log to the sp2013 site using code.So that users are not allowed to change from browser again.
Thanks & Regards, Krishna

Hi Krishna,
For your issue, you need to deploy a farm solution using HideCustomAction to hide site settings link. For example to hide “Title, description, and logo” link you can use below code:
<Elements xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/sharepoint/">
<HideCustomAction
GroupId="Customization"
HideActionId = "ProjectSettings"
Location = "Microsoft.SharePoint.SiteSettings">
</HideCustomAction>
</Elements>
