Robohelp 9, Citrix, and TFS, a good combination?

Hi,
We are using RoboHelp 9 installed in a Citrix environment, using Team Foundation Systems (TFS) as a version control system.
Some users of RoboHelp lose their Recent projects list everytime they log off the system and log back in. They also lose all information about the TFS server and have to go through the whole process of linking to a TFS server and getting back their workspace everytime they want to open a project after they've logged off their system.
The exact same configuration works well for some users, wheras they do not loose their recent projects list nor their connection information with TFS whether they log off their system or not.
Any ideas where the problem lies? 
Thanks

Rh10 is cool with having projects on a server, not Rh10 itself. My understanding too is this is a breach of the licence agreement as it is sold on a one user per licence basis.

    Good day,
    I have installed Acrobat DC, and would like to combine 2 files. One is excel allready converted to PDF - No problem. The other one is from Pastel mailed as PDF.
    When trying to merge the files, this file ask for a Password. No password was issued from the setup or mail?

    Good day abrieb93050306,
    I can understand your concern, however can you please let me know that are you able to open both the PDF files ( the one you converted form excel to pdf & the other pdf that was mailed to you ) individually without using any password?
    As it asks for the password, it means that the postal mailed PDF is password protected. You can ask for the password from the sender of the postal mail & then try to combine the files.
    Please follow the steps in the provided KB doc.to combine the files : Combine files into single PDF | Adobe Acrobat DC tutorials
    This will probably resolve your issue.
    Let me know if you still experience any issue.
    Regards,

  • RoboHelp X5 and TFS 2010

    We are using RoboHelp X5 to create HTML help projects. Our R&D team is using Team Foundation Server Source Control and we're planning on storing our help projects there as well. I have installed Visual Studio 2010 and configured the team foundation server. Team Explorer is up and running. I also downloaded and installed the Team Foundation Server MSSCCI Provider 2010 v.3.3 plugin. RoboHelp recognised the Team Foundation Server but when I try to connect to the server from RoboHelp, a Server Busy -message appears. According to our R&D people the server is not busy and that there is probably some sort of a compatibility issue here. Is there a way to make RoboHelp X5 work with TFS source control?

  • Connection between RoboHelp HTML 10 project and TFS (Visual Studio 12) persists when opening local version of project

    Our global documentation team is using RH and TFS for version control and collaboration. In our workflow, each assigned writer connects to TFS to edit a RH project and the project lead then compiles and publishes the WebHelp from his/her local version of the project. All seemed fine, but last week I noticed that when I closed a TFS-connected project and re-opened it from my local hard drive to compile and view, I was still connected to TFS; I was prompted to get the latest files from TFS and all (well, nearly all) the options are available on the Version Control menu. I've since discovered that we have other RH projects where the connection to TFS unexpectedly persists.
    What can we do to fix this issue? Is it possible that something in each of the affected RH projects has been corrupted? NB: In the case of my project, the version in TFS does not include any "verboten" file, like those with PSS or CPD extensions.
    Thanks.
    Alan

    As I understand your description correctly, this is precisely the way RoboHelp is supposed to work. Everyone works locally but saves changes to the server so that other authors can also see the changes.
    What is it you want to achieve precisely? You can disconnect a project from TFS without removing it from the server, but is that what you want? If it is, take a look at Rick's fantastic tutorial: http://www.robowizard.com/RoboWizard/MonthlyScry/102004.htm

  • My 1st Generation time capsule won't connect to the internet thru a new motorola sb6121 - get continuously flashing yellow light. Using a router in between the modem and capsule yields good but slower connection to internet. Any thoughts?

    My 1st Generation time capsule won't connect to the internet thru a new motorola sb6121 - get continuously flashing yellow light. Using a router in between the modem and capsule yields good but slower connection to internet. Any thoughts?

    Thanks for your response
    Let me give the history - I started with an Apple Express being fed thru a D-Link  EBTR 2310 cable Router from an RCA DCM315 Modem (Pure). Comcast service all the way.
    Got the 1st generation TC in 2008 and merely replaced the Airport Express with the TC. Worked ok
    A year or two ago I did try removing the modem and feeding the TC directly from the modem. Resulted in the same condition I have now - Continuous flashing amber on the TC. So I put the router back in the chain.
    Some time later, at the recommendation of a Comcast rep, I replaced the router with (a Belkin F5D 5231) to see if speed and dropout problems would be improved. I thought it helped some at the time but now I am not so sure.
    Last week I decided to see if a new modem would help with download speeds. So I got another pure cable modem (Motorola SB 6121- high on the Comcast recommended list).
    Got up and running easily with Comcast help and with the modem connected directly to a computer.
    Next I put the TC in the link and again could not get past the TC continuing to flash amber. Although I did get connected to the internet with this configuration I lost connection two both of my printers - one connected by USB and the other wirelessly to the TC. Again everything works fine when I put the Belkin router back in the system.
    However with the router in there, the modem shows the downstream connection to be 10/100 ethernet speed. (Modem light changes color for indicating speeds.}
    I have gone thru all of the combinations of powering down/ up, but all stays the same.
    I can live with what I have but something still doesn’t seem right.
    Thanks again

    Launch the Console application in any of the following ways:
    Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Console in the icon grid.
    The title of the Console window should be All Messages. If it isn't, select
    SYSTEM LOG QUERIES ▹ All Messages
    from the log list on the left. If you don't see that list, select
    View ▹ Show Log List
    from the menu bar at the top of the screen.Click the Clear Display icon in the toolbar. Then try the action that you're having trouble with again. Select any messages that appear in the Console window. Copy them to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. Paste into a reply to this message by pressing command-V.

  • SAP report with sales (invoices) and cost of goods sold

    Is there standard SAP report that would show list of invoices, the materials sold, and the cost of goods sold (for how much they were bought)?

    Dear sapfan22222222
    If it is a one time activity, the please do the following.
    SE11 , put the table VBRK and execute (you may use selection criteria like DATE o BILLING DATE if there is any specific data which you are trying to extract.)
    VBRK-VBELN will give you the list of invoices.
    You can download the same into spreadsheet.
    Now copy the VBELN entries from the spreadsheet and put it in SE11 of VBRP as VBELN.
    VBRP-MATNR will give you the material sold.
    Download the same into 2nd spreadsheet
    your cost of goods sold will be coming in the pricing procedure against any condition type.
    So in VBRK which you have extracted earlier, you will find VBRK-KNUMV
    Put that KNUMV in KONV table (put KSCHL= your condition type which shows the cost of goods sold).
    Download that also as a spreadsheet.
    Now you may combine these 3 spreadsheet with the help of someone who is an expert in excel and get the required data.
    (BILLING NO FROM FIRST EXCEL , MATERIAL FROM 2ND EXCEL AND COST OF GOODS SOLD FROM 3RD EXCEL)
    Check and revert back.
    Thanks & Regards,

  • RE: Citrix and Hydra

    Hi,
    In fact we did that. There are some things to take care of:
    1.) Hydra is not yet out of beta. So you have to rely on Winframe which
    is STILL based on NT 3.51. Which is not supportet to run with Forte
    Version 3.0. (We tried, and it ran pretty well, but you never know)
    2.) In Forte 3.0 you run several Launch-Servers on the same machine. So
    you have to make sure that they don't use the same FORTE_FTLAUNCH_PORT.
    We use a script similar to the one below. The file hostport.txt gives a
    list that shows which terminal uses which port.
    grep %MASCHINE% hostport.txt > %MASCHINE%.txt
    cat %MASCHINE%.txt | sed "1,$s#^.* #SET FORTE_FTLAUNCH_PORT=#g" >
    %MASCHINE%.bat
    call %MASCHINE%.bat
    hostport.txt:
    =========
    Console 6000
    tcp#001 6001
    tcp#002 6002
    tcp#003 6003
    tcp#004 6004
    3.) Also, all of your Client use the same machine name. Forte builds it
    envrepos from that name. So you might specify -fnd =%WINSTATIONNAME% to
    distinguish them.
    Hope this helps

    We were wondering if anybody has implemented multiple Forte clients running
    on a server using Citrix or the upcoming Microsoft Hydra. This technology
    allows thin clients to connect to an NT server and run clients on that
    server, similar to how clients (terminals) connect to a mainframe and
    execute client sessions.

  • How to manage slow and fast moving goods in Demand Planning

    Hi All,
    Kindly let me know how to manage slow and fast moving goods in Demand Planning.
    1. First how to detect slow and fast moving goods
    2. which DP model to use
    3. Any Best practice while dealing with slow and fast moving goods
    Thanks
    Arun

    Arun,
    There are two main concerns with forecasting slow moving goods. For fast moving, yes, trend, level and seasonality combined with a decent demand level gets you through.
    So, either you don't have demand in the market for that product; if the product is not critical (like go/no go spare parts) I recommend just averaging out the demand over a period and going with that. Any errors incurred there won't have a significant business impact. On the other hand if it is critical, safety stock and/or contractual obligations come to play.
    OR, if there is market demand but your market share is too low for whatever reason, then it gets tricky because you need a predictor variable(s) for which you have good knowledge off (such as CPI index, demand for related products, etc). The forecast is then done on the predictor variable(s) and the low market share applied to 'translate' the expected demand to the product in question. Unfortunately, the case of low demand/low market share I have no idea of how to implement it on SAP. Since forecasting is just the tip of the iceberg, it may pay to do it outside of SAP (say in Excel) and manually input it (unless the products are many and varied).
    Hope this helps. Please let me know if this makes sense and/or applies to your question.

    i have 3 different itunes accounts and would like to combine them into just one for all my devices, a macbook pro, an iphone 4S, an older IPOD, and a ver sion one Ipad. how can i do this on all devices ?

    i had one for a long time, then when i got the ipad i didn't realize they would all still work under one so i set up the second one on that
    then when i got the new iphone i put in the info for the first and main one from my mac pro and it would not work at all, and i knew it was right, then it asked me to create a new one or i couldnt finish the setup
    hence why i have 3 now
    hard to believe you cannot combine into one
    oh well, i will just make them all accessible for all 3
    thanks

    I have two separate itune accounts under two different email accounts and would like to combine them under one account.  Is this possible and if so, how do I do it?

    If you go to Settings > iTunes & AppStore , you can sign out from your account, and sign in with the one you've used to purchase apps.This will not remove any apps you already have on it.
    Then you can go to AppStore and download apps you've purchased (either via "Purchased" button in "Updates", or simply search for them and download them.
    That way you can have multiple accounts' apps on your iPad. When updating, you will be prompted for the credentials for account you've purchased given App with.
