Restrict group to edit users in people picke in infopath

hi
I have a document with people picker I want to restrict group A to pick or edit the users in existing document and groupB able to edit the users in people picker how is it possible to make it in InfoPath.

Hello,
This would be easy to do with groups that can access specific sections of the form and then use SharePoint or AD groups to govern access, but unfortunately it does not work in InfoPath.
One alternative possibility is to set up a list in SharePoint and enter the names of the smaller group of people into that list (Person field).
The InfoPath form has a data connection to that list. The form has one section with a people picker and another section with a calculated field that shows the value of the people picker.
When opening the InfoPath form, check if the current user exists in the list and hide the section they should not see.
cheers, teylyn

Hi,
I am having an issue with populating user name to people picker in infopath form.
Based on some rules when an ID matches with the ID in list i am populating some fields to the form to make the user work easy. But i have a single line text field with all the user names when i populate the user it shows error that it cannot be found. I
know directly copying the user name to people picker doesn't work but tried querying before copying and tried couple of things. Nothin works is there any way to achieve this.
Thanks in advance.

Add Users from people picker field to sharepoint group

Used UserGroup webservice and "AddUserToGroup" operation. If I select single user in people picker and click submit button, web service data connection adding user to sharepoint group without any issue but it's not working for multiple users.If

Cannot remove deleted user from people picker - SharePoint Foundation 2010

So I think I've read all the people picker articles here and I can't find a solution so I thought I'd start a new thread. Here is the issue:
A user was deleted from Active Directory and removed from SharePoint Foundation 2010. The user was still showing in the People Picker within the site collection, so we have performed a few things to try and get rid of this user.
User is deleted from AD
User is deleted from SharePoint Site Collection
Have tried stsadm -o deleteuser
Have removed all mention of this user from UserInfo table
User does NOT show in
https://<SiteCollectionURL/_layouts/people.aspx?MembershipGroupId=0
Cannot find any mention of this user anywhere.
Ran a full crawl as we read on a forum somewhere that it might help.
If I try and add the user back to SharePoint I get "The user does not exist or is not unique"
If I try "stsadm -o deleteuser -userlogin DOMAIN\USER -url https://<sitecollectionurl>" I get "The user does not exist or is not unique"
I am not sure what else I can try now. Can anyone help?
Thanks,
Vinny

No other domain trusts that this user could be in.
Just so everyone can stop with the warnings, we do NOT regularly delete users from the UserInfo table and fully are aware of the problems behind it, which is why it is so rarely done. But at times, you have to do what you have to do to help a customer, you
know? This one user is the only one that was removed from the UserInfo table, but there are a few other users that are also deleted (from SharePoint, not manually from UserInfo) that are still showing as well. This one user included.
There MUST be another place that the people picker gets it's information from. ALL of the user's old information still shows in the people picker (username, email address, display name), and yet none of that information exists anywhere other than in the
People Picker. Mailbox is gone from Exchange, User deleted from SharePoint, User deleted from Active Directory. Is there no cache someone could point me towards that People Picker might store information in.

Disable People Picker In Infopath Form on Chrome

Hi,
we have a sharepoint custom list ,where we customized it with infopath designer
In this form ,we have a button ,which makes a call to the list,and pulls out the details about user Manager if available and some additional details
Always the Manager People picker value is a read only field.and we have a Nintex workflow running post submitting the form.
The Button is simple "GetManagerDetails",which makes a call to the lists web service and gets the data.
WE have disabled this manager people picker control in Infopath by setting a formatting rule and 1=1 ,which runs everytime.
This works perfectly fine in IE,However in chrome its not working as expected,the manager control is getting enabled.
So we have written a javascrpt to disable it ,which is working fine on load of the form using jquery.
When the user clicks on the button ,its sending a POST request and after that these control is getting enabled again.
If we run the function to disable ,from the console window.the control is getting disabled.But to invoke this function post the click event ,
I tried several options as below
Window.load() which is working only on form load
using PageRequestManager,and calling add_endrequest() is also not working
setTimeout () in Javascript is not working either.
Is there any way we can execute after that postback,I tried to attach callbacks in jquery which is not working either.
Please help if anybody has any other ideas.

Hi Sophie,
According to your description, my understanding is that you want to send InfoPath form to the individual selected in the people picker via email.
I am afraid you cannot. Due to the limitation of connecting InfoPath forms to a SharePoint Online web service, you cannot get the individual's email address and then cannot send email to him.

Infopath 2010: How To Seperate Multiple Users Selected In People Picker With A Semicolon

I've seen several posts on this forum about getting multiple user values in a people picker in Infopath to show up in a Sharepoint List. Obviously, they merge which isn't all that useful if you want to use that data for a workflow. I followed
Clayton Cobb's suggestion, and took a look at this blog which uses a
no code solution, which is what i need. Everything for this blog works for me, but I do not need to use the UserProfile web service.
I'm coming up just short though. I can successful select multiple users in my people picker, and as I do that, the text box populates itself separated by semicolons, but the same AccountId is repeated (of the 1st person selected in the people picker) instead
of the unique value of each user.
Here is my current result, with data fields shown
Here is the result I would like to see. This way the text box gets upload into Sharepoint so I can use it in other places.
Can someone please help me? I'm very close. Here is my function on the text box:
eval(eval(Person, 'concat(/my:myFields/my:PersonTraveling/pc:Person/pc:AccountId, "; ")'), "..")
XPath (advanced):
xdMath:Eval(xdMath:Eval(/my:myFields/my:PersonTraveling/pc:Person, 'concat(/my:myFields/my:PersonTraveling/pc:Person/pc:AccountId, "; ")'), "..")

Hi methitical,
Please change your XPath (advanced) to
xdMath:Eval(xdMath:Eval(/my:myFields/my:PersonTraveling/pc:Person, 'concat(pc:AccountId, "; ")'), "..")
to make it work.

Hi,
To hide/disable controls based on user group in an InfoPath form, a solution is that we can call User Profile Service to check the group of current user, then hide/disable
specific controls by setting some rules in form.
Here is a demo with steps in details would be helpful to you:

Restricting People Picker of "Person or Group" column to Site Groups only

Hi,
I am working on SharePoint Online 2013 and I have created a column - DocOwner with "Person or Group" type in document library. In the site collection there are 4 groups lets say - A,B,C,D. When user creates a new item (document set), in newform.aspx,
I want to restrict the people picker of "Docowner" column to only Site groups, as currently it is showing all users who are there in SharePoint online.
I read this article - http://office.microsoft.com/en-in/sharepoint-server-help/site-column-types-and-options-HA010302196.aspx#_Toc277149829.........where they are saying that we can limit the people picker to site users only.
How this can be achieved using OOTB in SharePoint 2013 Online ?

You can create a workflow to execute CSOM which will verify group membership details and update it to choice column

How to save users added to list using people picker to sharepoint Group

Hi
I have created List with some people picker columns and now when I save a list,the data is saved to list as well as the users in particular column will be added to particular sharepoint
group. Is there any sharepoint out of box solution for this or I need to do it programmatically. Kindly provide me any procedures or solutions as you know.
1) how to bind the particular sharepoint group to the particular column
2) How to add users to the particular sharepoint group
Thanks
Razvi444

Hi Razvi444,
There is no out of the box way to achieve this.You need to write a custom event receiver ,inside event receiver
event, you
can check column (people picker value) and add it to desired group if that user not exist already.
Thanks

Restricting Access for SQ01 User Group

Hi ,
Please let me how to Restrict Access for a User Group to only some of the specific users?
Thank you
Edited by: Vibhor Arora on Apr 12, 2010 7:29 AM

Hi,
Can you please clarify what exactly you want to know, your request can be interpreted in a few different ways.
If you are concerned that people have access to all user groups, then you need to remove access to S_QUERY activity 02 and I think activity 23. They will lose access to all user groups that they are not assigned to via SQ03.

SharePoint 2013 July 2014 CU - People Picker fields empty in Edit forms

After applying the July 2014 CU for SharePoint server, I discovered that Person or Group (People Picker) fields are not populated with server values in list item Edit forms. However, the field values can be viewed in list views
and in Display forms. I examined the client side code and determined that field data is not being returned from the server for Edit forms.
In a test environment, I uninstalled SharePoint 2013, reinstalled SP 2013 with SP1 and the issue went away. I then applied the May 2014, June 2014, and July 2014 CUs. The issue did not exist after applying the May and June CUs. It
did exist after applying the July 2014 CU.

There is a workaround for this issue. It's a little convoluted, but hey, it's SharePoint. First, you must have a list that has at least one entry in it.
To begin with, you must first
have a list with at least one item in the list.
Next you edit the item with a role that has at least Design privilege, but don't save your changes.
Instead you Edit the page so you can then edit that web part. You can edit the page by clicking on the cog icon and selecting Edit Page
Edit the web part itself
Under “Miscellaneous” section on the just exposed web part window, select "Server Render (Server Render)" in the drop down labeled “CSR Render Mode
Click on “Apply” button within the web part
Save
I was told also the Sept CU would fix the issue but it is under review and to wait until the first of October. Incidentally we found that if you put the entire list into Quick Edit mode, the issue does
not appear.
I hope this helps someone.

People Picker/Edit Web Parts/More not working in IE11

So, we just installed IE11 in our company and found the following issues with SharePoint 2010:
People Picker not working
At Search site, when you type in string(s) and hit Enter, nothing happens (you must click the search button)
Cannot edit web parts on Wiki Page
After doing some exhaustive homework (and installing Sep 2014 CU to see they were fixed), the only 2 solutions are:
Run in compatibility Mode
Fix the below tag in the Master Page and People Picker headers (14 hive)
meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="IE=8"
So, I just want to know if others have encountered this and what they did to resolve (compatibility mode or change the tags or other).
I have a ticket open with Microsoft, we installed Sept 2014 CU, and are still having these 3 issues.
Godspeed,
Herschel

Hi,
Thanks for posting your issue,
We know that IE11 has compatibility issues. Kindly follow below mentioned steps to solve this issue
1. Installed all the latest Update for IE 11
2. Add the site in compatibility Mode (Tools> Compatibility view settings> type site name> add)
3. Add the site in trusted sites and set the security Zone level to low ( IE> Internet Options> Security> trusted sites> sites>add your site there> ok> custom level> select low> reset> ok)
Also, browse the below mentioned URLs for more details to fix this issue.

How to add the current user to a people picker using javascript coding in document library

Hi Everyone,
This is my scenario,
I have a document library,for this if any user uploads a document,there we have three content types(Ex:content1,content2,content3)
if the uploaded user is from content 1(here we have four columns name,assigned to ,status,published to) after uploading the document the document has to be updated.so when the document is updated by the user then automatically the published filed people
picker has to be filled up with the current user name this is done by using java script object model programming.
i am stuck with this can anyone help me..............
thanks in advance
Ramu

Hi,
I understand that you want to set a people picker field value automatically to current user. You can use these ECMA scripts on your EditForm.aspx page. Edit the page in SharePoint designer and add the code before a </asp:Content> tag.
<script type="text/javascript">
var context = null;
var web = null;
var currentUser = null;
ExecuteOrDelayUntilScriptLoaded(GetUserLoginName, "sp.js");
function GetUserLoginName() {
context = new SP.ClientContext.get_current();
web = context.get_web();
this._currentUser = web.get_currentUser();
context.load(this._currentUser);
context.executeQueryAsync(Function.createDelegate(this, this.onSuccessMethod),
Function.createDelegate(this, this.onFailureMethod));
function onSuccessMethod(sender, args) {
var today = new Date();
alert('Name:' + this._currentUser.get_title() + '\n Login:' + this._currentUser.get_loginName()); document.getElementById('ctl00_m_g_9b4b3950_80d8_4e6e_b2fa_241b727d83d4_ctl00_ctl02_ctl00_ctl02_ctl00_ctl00_ctl04_ctl00_ctl00_ctl04_ctl00_ctl00_UserField_upLevelDiv').innerHTML=this._currentUser.get_title();//you
need to change the ID here to you people picker field ID. You can get the id for this field with the help of IE developer tool.
function onFaiureMethod(sender, args) {
alert('request failed' + args.get_message() + '\n' + args.get_stackTrace());
</script>
