Reporting Authority Approval Problem

Hi ,
in the oim, the reporting authority(manager) of a user is not able to approve the resource for the user, although it was working well before, i don know if ALL USERS permissions are disturbed, but its not working, when i make xelsysadm the reporting authority(manager) of the same user then it works but for any one else(ALL USERS) it doesnt.

Can someone tell me what is a table SSM_VAR and how it is used? I went thru documentation and OSS, but find no hints on that.
Will appreciate the answer!

Document not reported for approval

I have an urgent issue related to workflow, it is like a lot of document that should report for approval, has not been reported since many days. Now when i am checking the log of the documents it is showing a SWW_WI_ERROR_MESSAGE_SEND_S in technical details of the agent list.
Can any one help me for the same?

> And this is the step in WF-Batch.
>
So it is a background step. That is (well, at least it can be) significant information. Have you checked that they haven't messed with the authorizations of WF-BATCH?
> Every document posed after 15 september by a user is having the same problem, workflow is not triggering. And in SM58 it is showing "time limit exceeded".
>
So the documents are of different types, it is not restricted to e.g. only purchase orders. Have you checked that the user has normal authorizations (e.g. the same basic roles as another user)?
I assume you have chekced most of the obvious things, such as the document referred in the workflow actually existing.
Surely the workflow must be triggering when this problem can be found in the workflow log. What exactly do you mean by that statement - do all the workflows fail early in the process - perhaps even before the first step is created?
What should the step that fails do? I assume the failure occurs in a customer-developed BOR object type, so please give a bit more information about where the problem occurs.

SP10 - multiple approver problem with CUP

We have SP10 (patch 1) in our development system and cannot move forward to production because of a real show stopper. I have currently reported this to SAP thru an OSS message (and it is in development) but would like to know if anyone else is having this issue with SP10. (this happened even before applying patch 1)
We have multiple approvers when creating NEW users or CHANGING users in CUP. We have it configured to allow just one of the approvers to approve before going on to the next stage. Since we put in SP10, CUP is requiring ALL approvers to approve the request before going on to the next stage. We get the following message when one of the approvers approve the request: Request no: 5020. is approved, pending for other Approvers.
I've seen this reported for UAR and SOD but not for CUP. In fact, there is a fix for UAR in Patch 1 of SP10. I applied this patch but it hasn't fixed the CUP issue. I also don't have the issue when rejecting a CUP request, or when approving it through the configuration --> Request --> Administration screen (what I consider the Back-door since only security administrators get the configuration area).
Thanks for your input.
Peggy

Christian,
I totally agree with you.
The good news is.... We installed SP11.1 and the multiple approver problem is fixed.
We have decided to leave our production system at SP8 until this system settles down a bit. Of course, this means we can't use many of the new fixes and features (such as UAR). We use our sandbox system to apply new support packs and do very rigorous testing. And our DEV system is at SP8 too.
Good Luck.
Peggy

Report painter performance problem...

I have a client which runs a report group consists of 14 reports... When we run this program... It takes about 20 minutes to get results... I was assigned to optimize this report...
This is what I've done so far
(this is a SAP generated program)...
1. I've checked the tables that the program are using... (a customized table with more than 20,000 entries and many others)
2. I've created secondary indexes to the main customized table with (20,000) entries - It improves the performance a bit(results about 18 minutes)...
3. I divided the report group by 4... 3 reports each report group... It greatly improves the performance... (but this is not what the client wants)...
4. I've read an article about report group performance that it is a bug.
(sap support recognized the fact that we are dealing with a bug in the sap standard functionality)
http://it.toolbox.com/blogs/sap-on-db2/sap-report-painter-performance-problem-26000
Anyone have the same problem as mine?

Report painter/Writer always creates a prerformance issue.i never preffred them since i have a option with Zreport
now you can do only one thing put more checks on selection-screen for filtering the data.i think thats the only way.

Report query parsing problem

I didn't find any report of this problem...
Using APEX 3.0.1.00.07, I have a report of type "SQL Query (PL/SQL function body returning SQL query)" with the "Use Generic Column Names (parse query at runtime only)" radio button selected.
When the region source contains the string "ORDER BY" in any form that I've tried (even in a comment), attempting to save the region fails with "Your query can't include an "ORDER BY" clause when having column heading sorting enabled."
I do indeed have column sorting enabled on certain columns, but I don't see how that is relevant under these circumstances since the query produced at runtime does not have an ORDER BY clause.
Am I overlooking something or is this a parsing problem?
Rodney

Rodney,
It's just checking for order by being included in your query, and if so and you have column heading sorting enabled, it's raising this error because you can't have both (even if it's commented out).

Marc

Error while installing the Microsoft Dynamics CRM 2013 Report Authoring Extension set up

HI Experts,
I am trying to install Report Authoring extension tool to work with MS CRM 2015 online reports but unable to install, getting below error even though I am having VS 2013, SQL Server 2014 and Data tools for VS 2013 installed on my machine.
Please help me to fix this issue.
When I double click the error getting below error.
Error : Business Intelligence Development Studio is not installed for Microsoft SQL Server Reporting Services.
When I click the details , getting below error.
Thanks
Baji Rahaman

The Report Authoring Extensions (any version) don't support VS 2013. Currently the Crm 2015 Report Authoring Extensions support VS 2012 and VS 2010, and the Crm 2013 Report Authoring Extensions supports only VS 2010.
By the way, the error you posted suggests you're trying to install the Crm 2011 Report Authoring Extensions

How do I report a security problem to Firefox?

Here's the problem: 
Wednesday morning my Mac at home got infected by malware which I believe is usually called the "Google redirect virus". My Mac at home has been upgraded to OSX 10.6.7 and I believe I was using Firefox 3.6.13 (it automatically upgraded tonight). I haven't been able to find any useful information on line about this malware. 
The behavior after infection was that every time I tried to use Google my request would get redirected. If I entered www.google.com in the address bar, the URL would get changed to www.google.com/FuneralHomes/<something> and the browser would try to go there and a "Under Construction" error message or a no-such-page message would be returned. This started happening after I did a Google search and was checking various links in Firefox, but once it started in Firefox I got the same behavior in Safari even without using Safari to look at any links. And it continued to happen in Safari even after I did a "Reset Safari..." 
When I got infected I was using a non-adminstrator account and I was not asked to download anything nor was I prompted for a password. 
I searched on "Google redirect Mac virus" using my (so far) untouched work computer and found several suggestions but no solutions. Apparently this is a PC problem that's been around a few years, but there were some Mac reports from last year. So last night I checked the DNS addresses in my
Network preferences, looked at /etc/hosts, and removed the only plug-in from the Library:Internet Plug-ins of the infected account, even though it was a Picasa plug-in that predated this infection. None of those seemed to be the problem. I also scanned my disk with an up-to-date "Norton AntiVirus" which
I got from work some time ago, but it found no viruses. 
What really puzzles me is that the problem gradually went away while I was checking it last night. At first, when I entered www.google.com the browser would still show the redirected address in the prompt that comes up and it had the Legacy.com logo on the left instead of the Google one but it would actually go to the Google website (unless I'm being spoofed). Then at a later attempt, only the wrong logo persisted. Then at an even later attempt the logo got fixed and everything looked fine and appeared to behave correctly. 
Frankly, that's a little scary. It's as if a really smart trojan got
installed and was covering its tracks while it set up a man-in-the-middle attack (please advise if I'm misusing the jargon). If I'm being too paranoid, great, but I'd still like to know how such behavior could be induced on my machine just by linking to a website. Can anyone help?
''moderator- fixed the leading space formatting errors in this posting''

Thanks, the-edmeister, but the only relevant post I found was from GB Colburn on bleepingcomputer.com, wherein he reported a similar problem about a year ago. I've found a few similar threads in the last year or so (by searching "Google redirect mac virus" in Google) but they are all about the same: someone reports the problem, responders have various random suggestions, the problem seems to go away by itself (at least sometimes), and there's nothing conclusive either good or bad.
Without myself being as knowledgeable as GB Colburn, it doesn't look to me like the problem is in the DNS system or the router. It acts more like some malware in the automatic completion in the address bar of the browser or maybe in the history system, but I can't figure out how an infection in one browser could affect another browser. And I *really* can't figure out how it could be self-healing.
It's really frustrating that none of the major parties involved in this—Firefox, Google, Safari (Apple), Verizon (my internet provider)—even have a process for reporting a security issue. At least not one that I, an ordinary semi-naive user, can find.

Report design Grouping problem

I'm currently designing a report, something like an invoice. The invoice number is usually on the page header. But now i want to create a report to list down all the invoice numbers in the 'details' but when i drag the 'invoice number' data to 'details'
it only show 1 row of numbers, wheareas the data has few rows of it. How can i make it view all my numbers?

Hi Eugene,
Thank you for posting in MSDN forum.
Since this forum is discuss the VS test issue, so
I’m afraid that it is not the correct forum for this issue.
As you said that the report design grouping problem, I suggest you could try to consult this issue directly to the VS Report Controls forum:
https://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/home?forum=vsreportcontrols , maybe you will get better support.

SAP NetWeaver Portal Crystal Reports PDF Export Problem

Hallo all,
We are working with BO Edge XI 3.1 with integration on SAP Netweaver Portal. The problem is that integrated in SAP Portal CR reports cannot be exported to PDF or printed out.
I am using an URL iview with the parameter sOutputFormat=P to run the report.
When I want to print out the report I get the warning message from Internet Explorer "The download of files from this page is for security reasons blocked. Click here..." --> Download the file. By clicking on the u201CDownload this fileu201D the report starts to run again. PDF export doesnu2019t happen.
Did somebody have the same problem?
Thanks a lot in advance!

Hello Ingo,
thanks a lot for Your help. I have already talked to my IT department and they are looking for the solution of this problem, too.
Is there a documentation about necessary settings in the browser to work with SAP NetWeaver Portal and Crystal reports?
The problem is that on some clients the PDF export is working and on another clients not. The settings of IE seem to be equal.

Katharina

Oracle Report Server wierd problem

Hi All,
I am facing very wierd problem with oracle report server.
I am using Oracle Report Server 10g R1. The problem I am facing is as under:
There is custom parameter form where user enters report filter criteria and press a button to create the report.
The problem is that report is giving output some times and sometimes it gives no output at all. Both the times, the parameters passed by user are same. The report executions are done for both runs one after other. We have tried to look in report server trace file but could not find anything. When report server fails to give any data in the report, at the same time, we have tried to execute the report query on SQL prompt and it did return data.
Can any one give any hint where the problem could be ?
Thanks,
Ramchandra Jetwani

Hi,
When i used to get only one page the options like facing, continuous facing are disabled. And displays only single page.
These options are enabled only when there are multiple pages in pdf.
One more thing i found that it happens when I first view the report as pdf it displays
all the pages, then i change the display format to csv and again when i change
the format to pdf the problem starts.
And when I will restart the report server service, it works fine again until i wont view it in CSV format.

Every time I start or close Firefox , Avira reports a malwaare problem.

Every time I start or close Firefox , Avira reports a malware problem. "A Virus or unwanted program 'HTML/Frame.tzt.3' was found in file 'C:\Documents and settings \Diane.DESKTOP\...\0CAEBd04'. "
I believe this began when I upgraded to Firefox 8.I have tried reinstalling Firefox 8, going back to Firefox 3.6, opening in safemode. Avira removes the file but warns again with each opening and closing. The warning does not appear with any other program or with IE. I am running XP.

Do a malware check with a few malware scan programs. You need to use all programs because each detects different malware. Make sure that you update each program to get the latest version of the database.

POWL does not update Expense Reports for Approval

Hi,
I am about to replace the UWL with POWL and the configuration have been made successfully when it comes to leave approval and expense reports but the Expense reports for approval refuses to update itself (no items in the list)
If I go to Transaction code SWI5 am I able to see all u201Cwork items to be processedu201D . From this list I can see three Task IDs
TS12300097      Approval Process (1 work Item)
TS31000007     CATS: Approval by Supervisor (1 work item)
TS99300002     Approve travel expenses (2 work Items)
In transaction POWL_COCKPIT in the maintain POWL Type details I have flagged the Sync. Call for FITV_POWL_TRIPSFORAPPROCAL_EXP. I have also assigned same Task ID as Approve travel expenses (TS99300002) to POWL in transaction SM31 table IBO_C_WF_TA_P_SC.
Result is that the list is empty in the POWL but if I go to UWL Authorize list it shows 2 items which is correct.
Please help me out here because I have searched a lot for a solution but havenu2019t found anything.

Remember Employee list is the key! Did you maintain it?
The employee list can also be maintained centrally in the R/3
backend for all users (managers). Therefore please use the
transactions FPB_MAINTAIN_PERS_M or FPB_MAINTAIN_PERS_S.
With this the object list is done for the POWLs.
If no emplyoee list exists for the manager, then there will be no items.
POWL is based on personalization framework where every user has its own
set of queiries and types, which are assigned using TX POWL_QUERYR or
POWL_TYPER which is role based. Similarlaly POWL_QUERYU and POWL_TYPEU
for user based.
If you want to delete a query from all users, please delete a entry from
POWL_TYPER or POWL_QUERYR.
More information on POWL can be get from
http://wiki.sdn.sap.com/wiki/display/WDABAP/POWL
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_erp60/helpdata/EN/42/d6652b755c1630e10000000

Once you delete the entry, please run the report POWL_d01.Please check
the details of report before running it.
