Restrict Equipment Search Options to only "Equipments by equipment list"

Hello Experts,
Is there a way to restrict Equipment Search Options to only "Equipments by equipment list" in all PM related transactions like maintenance plan, order, notification, measuring point, etc.,
We would like to put a hard stop on that option and restrict users from accessing (preferably not to even display other options) other options like "Equipment by Cost center", etc.,
Appreciate immediate response to this issue.
Thanks in Advance!!

Hi PM_User_2009,
The Equipment Search Options can be restricted by two ways.
1) If the restricted search option required in all transactions where you are using equipment field,
Edit the search help collecting search help 'EQUI' in SE11, Flag the checkbox for all the search helps in the 'Included Search helps' tab except the 'Equipment by Equipment list' search help (EQUIL).
2) If you want for particular transaction or program,
Use the search help exit 'PM_HLP_PREVENT_RECURSION'.
ABAPer can help you for both the options.

Default values to be populated in the search option ' Equip by equip list'

All Experts,
I am running the transaction code IE01 to create a equipment. While creating, i would like to select a reference equipment. When i am doing so, there are so many included search options are displayed. Now, there are two queries from here onwards.
a)Is it possible to hide / deactivate all other included search options except ' Equipments by Equipments list'.
b)When the option 'Equipments by Equipments list' is selected, is it any way to default the values for the fields 'Equipment category' as 'M' and the 'Class type as 002'
Please help.
Thanks,
Suresh

Suresh,
You will not be able to accomplish this using standard functionality without doing some development. It maybe possible to accomplish this through Transaction variant.
Other than the above, the simplest way to hide the search options would be to place a implicit enhancement at the begining of the FM "PM_HLP_PREVENT_RECURSION" to delete of the search helps other than "Equip By Equip List" based on the calling program and screen number.
With respect to defaulting, other than what Paul had indicated , try defaulting those values by setting the Parameter ID.
Thanks

How can I restrict a search to one folder only?

The problem: I have many files with the same designation (i.e., img038.tif -- usually from a scan). I would like to search only within one folder (sometimes with subfolders, as well as files), rather than in my entire computer.
Is that possible?

Change search options to FILE NAME only

Is there a way to change the search options to always search for FILE NAME only?
I don't know who'd saech for contents every time, that would seem like a last resort if you couldn't find what you are originally looking for and forgot the file name. We have 10's of thousands of files and having the stupid contents pop up EACH time I want to do a search wastes so much time.
Help!

The only way to bypass the crippled Spotlight search is to use a tailored savedSearch. This is what I use. The system files allows finding things in the stupidly hidden user's Library:

Can I restrict Youtube browsing to h264 only? Want to search on Mac for aTV

Hi,
Youtube is surprisingly good on the AppleTV.
I'd like to search on my Mac, and then save to favourites. Then I can watch them on the AppleTV from my Favourites. Unfortunately, a large amount of what I find won't work on AppleTV since they're not converted to h264 yet (I assume).
Is there any way on YouTube that I can restrict it all to h264 only videos?
Thanks
Greg
ps. YouTube makes my MBP run incredibly hot! maybe flash really is a problem for AppleTV and iPhone!

Did you ever get a reply to this? This is exactly what I want to do with my son's iMac G4 now running leopard.

Restrict folder search scope option of TREX

Hi all,
Anyone has used "Root Folders for Search(Scope=FOLDER)" in UISearch option set? How to use this parameter? I would like to restrict the folders for users to select in advanced search page.
Thanks you.
Anucha

Is there anyway to configure the Root Folders for Search (Scope = FOLDER)(csv) to accept a folder name (KM Repository) via the iView properties interface?
I am no programmer, but could the SEARCH OPTIONS SET look something like this::
Root Folder for Search (Scope=FOLDER)(csv) [ /documents/<%my_start_folder%> ]
And have the value for <%my_start_folder%> be passed in through the iView properties admin screen when setting up the iView?
Something like this::
New iView => KM Search iView => Parameters to Pass from Page Request (for URL Isolation): <%my_start_folder%>=Tonys_KM_Reporitory
Where Tonys_KM_Repository is a repository under /documents/ ?
Thanks!

Restrict regular users to use only certain ldm command options

I would like to restrict regular users to use only certain ldm command options, for example only list, bind/unbind, stop/start
What is the best practice to do it?
Thanks

Solution provided by one of my colleagues:
Installing sudo and configure sudoers file "User privilege specification" section similar to the following example:
# User privilege specification
root ALL=(ALL) ALL
user1 host1 = /opt/SUNWldm/bin/ldm ls *
user1 host1 = /opt/SUNWldm/bin/ldm stop *
user1 host1 = /opt/SUNWldm/bin/ldm stop -f *
user1 host1 = /opt/SUNWldm/bin/ldm start *
user1 host1 = /opt/SUNWldm/bin/ldm bind *
user1 host1 = /opt/SUNWldm/bin/ldm unbind *
**Note*: asterisk should be at the end of each row. They are not displayed in the posted message...*

Search using finder sidebar search options - but restrict it to one profile

I'm relatively new to my mac & OSX. How do I use the Finder sidebar search options - but restrict it to searching on just that one profile. currently it scans both the Administrator profiles. Thanks

In the old days when we wanted to search for something on the Mac (or Windows) we'd invoke the Find function, type information into the text box(es) and click on the Start button. That was fine but we often searched for the same thing over and over. That's why Apple created the *Smart Folder* which is really nothing more than a pre-made search. It isn't really a folder in the traditional sense; it doesn't hold items, it holds the search criteria and then shows the items that match it. Since it is a folder, these pre-made searches can be put in the sidebar the same as any other folder.
The sidebar search option, as you refer to it, is a collection of searches that Apple created for us. If they don't do what you want, you can create your own by selecting *New Smart Folder* from the File menu and save it to the sidebar. I've deleted all the ones Apple provided and replaced them with my own.

I can't see the 'search' option on this site. Am I the only one?

I'm having an issue with DVDSP and I can't see the 'search' option on this site. Is Apple cutting down on bandwidth for this so they can sell their phones?!
Anyone else having the same issue?

What the **** does this mean? The performance was just fine! Now, I am unable to efficiently search for information and the performance therefore is awful. How long will this go on?

Smart Folder search options

When I create a new Smart Folder, the only search options available are "This Mac" & "Documents" (no option for the "Home" folder as described in Help).
This may be OK, except that the smart folders I have created are to find the most recently accessed spreadsheets, Word documents, powerpoints by type (one folder for each). When I set up the Smart Folder they work well if i specify "This Mac" (as not all the relevant docs are in the directory structure, I may have some on my desktop for example).
But, when I reopen the Smart Folder later, I do not see all my recently accessed files, I see some other selection.
So I have to open 'search options'. The options have changed to "This Mac" & "Recent WORD.saved search" (the name I have given the smart folder), with the latter selected. I then have to click on "This Mac" and the search refreshes correctly. Even though i subsequently save again with "This Mac" selected, it reverts to "Recent Word.saved search" when I look the next time.
This used to work the way I wanted and displayed the files I wanted when first opened. The change may be either a) because of changes in Snow Leopard; or b) because I now have shared computers and drives sometimes available and I wonder if these cause the saved search not to like "This Mac" option in case some of the directories are not available...just a thought.
Any ideas if I am doing something wrong or is there a bug?

Phew. I just figured this out. I had the opposite problem that you have. All my searches were restricted to my home folder. The answer is that the default search location when you select "New Smart Folder" is set by the default location for a new Finder window. Yours must be set to "Documents".
You don't have to select "New Smart Folder", though. You can open the folder or drive you want to search and then start typing in the search criteria field in the upper right to start a search restricted to that folder or drive.
Confusing behavior. That top bar for the location of the search should be editable.

DVR Search Option No Longer Works - After The Crap Upgrade

The new software upgrade is crap. DVR search option no longer works. I can't use the search option to find my favorite programs and set the DVR to record them. It only lets me put the first letter in the search field and then nothing. I can't enter any more letters aftet that.
Verizon sent me another DVR but it has same issues. They sent a technician to my house and he basically told me, the upgrade is crap and lots of people are having technical issues.
He gave me another box and said it is working. Now I have three DVRs sitting in my house and I have to return two. After he left I tried to search and I have the same exact issue so basically he just lied and didn't fix anything.
I called tech support over and over, and they just told me that they can't do anything. They basicaly admitted that the upgrade is crap and the are clueless on how to fix it. So I'm stock with 3 DVRs that don't work. Billing department told me they can't give me any discounts either.
Anyone else is having these issues?

Same issue here. Sent me another box, same model as the old one. Same exact issues. Called Tech support back, they admitted it was a known issue, and nothing he could do about it. Was told I had to talk to someone in SALES to get them to send me a newer box.
New box is here, and now i have no option to record. Oh, and last time I called tech support... I got 'disconnected' (after being on hold for 30+ minutes). They are really dropping the ball, and I will not be renewing.

Why is there no "SEARCH OPTION" in the Windows Store? Apps missing be nice if I could find them !

Since on this journey from Win 8 consumer preview to Win 8 retail preview ..And no currently trying out Win 8 Pro...It verified if it was gonna give me back ( allowed to re-download ) the apps I was used/had in previous editions. The Store gives you
a selection of YOU APPS from previous versions of the OS preview of apps you installed and currently would want to reinstall. Various versions of the Consumer preview I installed 2 out the 4 times i installed the OS seen I had installed the app Comixology.
When the first time I installed Retail preview it didn't have it in my list nor was it listed in the store! Same goes with Iheart Radio and Slacker Radio though numerous installments of the OS. Now trying out the Win 8 Pro 9200 version It showed I at
one point no matter what PC I used ( I own a few and bought a new one recently ) It showed at one point I installed Comixology. Yet it didn't show Iheart Radio or Slacker in my install list of old to reinstall nor was it even in the Store!!!! \\\So
what the hell gives ????? I mean If there was a SEARCH Option it would make it easier to track these Metro ( whatever they are calling it now -personally I think they should call it FRAMES as in Window Frames :P When you go on these
programs sites they only offer up Apple or Android app downloads and nothing mentioning of Metro or Win 8 -which is understandable due to not being released yet but still if the Store can't comply with your history of app install base ( paid or free ) and
you can't have the ability to retrieves said apps you once installed how can that be trusted if and when paid apps are bought if you are only to reinstall the entire OS and find that your app is not obtainable via offered through the main store or even in
your downloads app install history. I hope they fix this issue as it's been pissing me off since this whole testing thing!!

Sorry if I offended you by using an anecdote - the actions of kids are simply an easy way to explore the actions of adults. Growing up doesn't change base instincts. Most people (myself included) tend to have an immediate distrust of change when
it is not change that they are instigating, when it is forced upon them. What better example is there than a child, where many big decisions are made for them?
As for the new interface, I didn't catch on until it was revealed to me (or I hit my head against the wall, can't remember), so I'm not saying it is easy. Better education is needed, but going back to the old way doesn't help. The five or six
questions I have answered today are questions that I myself had, and wished someone had answered for me. This is a
drastic change from old versions of Windows. I even told my boss yesterday that I can't see his company (I'm a contractor) switching any time soon - too much new stuff to learn. That being said, once there are some good training tools available,
I do believe that this OS will be a good choice - it does feel more intuitive after only a few days of use. A training course is likely necessary for new users, however my guess is that this will wind up being a beneficial change (long-run)
for IT departments, because the system does feel more aimed towards the casual user. No matter what program you use, the search and settings are in one easy place.
I admittedly do not have a lot of files in my Skydrive, however the file that is there is purple, while the folders are blue. Not sure if all files are like that, and I really do not have the time to explore those differences. That being said,
the number in the bottom-right seems pretty self-explanatory, the number of child elements in the container. I barely remember the old Skydrive interface, however I do remember it felt clunky. Whether or not the changes are a true
improvement, it does feel more streamlined.
Metro (or whatever it is called now) is confusing. It is scary. (My word, not yours, nor am I trying to imply it.) It is definitely
different from the past. But it makes sense. Same interface on every MS product: Xbox, Windows, and Phone. Microsoft didn't exactly
pioneer this idea, either. Apple has been creeping in that direction for a while now. As I said previously, I can move around faster in the new Start menu than I could in the old, and I can actually do
more without ever putting a hand on the mouse - for anyone that is waist-deep in computers, regardless of their specific job, that tends to be a
good thing.
There are a lot of growing pains here, for both Microsoft and the consumer. Has MS gotten it right? Not yet, not entirely, but the goal is clear.
If your complaint is on broken
functionality, then I wouldn't disagree with you. There is plenty of that, and I think it was a bit foolish of Microsoft not to have a Connect site up for such things. (If I'm wrong on that, and there is one, please point me that way. I'm
still stuck with Explorer.exe crashing from click-scrolling.)
As for disliking the big changes, well, I can't agree with you on that at all. Again, it wasn't an easy transition, but now that I'm here, I don't want to go back. I want the true
bugs fixed, but not having a search bar seems more like being stuck on old ways of doing things than a real problem. That kind of thing can even lead to puking.

How to restrict the job start conditions (only "Immediate" type) ?

Hi,
We allow our users to schedule and execute in background mode transactions (example IP19, IW38). We gave them for that authorizations (object S_BTCH_JOB with LIST, PROT, RELE and SHOW - objetct S_PROGRAM with BTCSUBMIT).
We would like that users can schedule and execute their jobs only with the u201CImmediateu201D job start condition (in the Start Time screen for the type of start condition : Immediate, Date/Time, After job, After event, or At operation mode).
Another solution: prohibit the scheduling and the execution background job in a certain time interval ...
How can restrict the job start conditions ?
Thank you.
Patrice.

Hi Jan,
Yes, sa38 makes it possible indeed to execute in background into immediate mode a job but
the user have to know the name of the program to be carried out ...
The user knows only the name of these transactions trade. For example, IW38.
In the menu of this transaction, SAP gives the possibility to execute in background :
Program --> Execute in Background --> display of Start Time screen for the type of start condition :
Immediate, Date/Time, After job, After event, or At operation mode).
It is at this time there that we want that the user can only choose the "immediate" mode.
We must thus prohibit the other choices (Date/Time, After job, After event, or At operation mode) ... and
and we don't know how to restrict these other options in this screen "Start Time screen for the type of start condition".
Thank you.
By.

Why does search option in history doesn't work? It does not display any sites I've been to.

I enter history, type a name of a site I've been to in 'search' or 'find' field (I'm using polish version so I don't know the exact name of that field) and it does not find anything. I haven't cleared my history, it's all there when I open 'today', 'yesterday' etc. tabs. Only finding it using search option doesn't work.
It used to work fine now it doesn't. I haven't installed anything.
