Running a dashboard report by any user based off another user's ID

Good Afternoon,
Im looking for some help on how to setup a dashboard so that a person can view a specific number of other users sale information by selecting their ID. This is how our dashboard works today. We have several reports that run for our supply chain that pull misc data from backorders to open PO's. The way they work today is each report is setup with a filter called 'Buyers'. That buy filter is setup with the statement UserID.UserID = @variable'BOUSERS'. Our UserID is mapped to our CustomerTable where the UserID = CustomerID and accountType = 'BUY'. So if the BO user runs the report and they have the accounttype 'BUY' it pulls their ID which is also their buyer number and returns the data based off their buyer #. For example: if Im a buyer with # 9901, when the report is ran it take my bo login TMH111 - jumps to customer table and compares my bo login with my customerid and pulls my buyer information using the 9901. What we would like to do is give this dashboard more flexibility so that if I am not a user with a buyer ID, I can go into the dashboard and SELECT the buyer ID I want to pull data for and since the rest of the reports are linked to a single report showing the buyer number I could see any buyers report data vs having to BE the buyer logging in to see the data associated with my buyer ID. I apologize if this is a little confusing.
So the ultimate goal is to be able to as any dashboard user, open the dashboard and select a buyer # from the "My Buyer #" block and the rest of the reports on the dashboard would update showing that buyers data.
I have attached a picture of the dashboards setup. You'll noticed there is a small block called "My Buyer Number" all the other blocks would need to be linked to that specific report and show the data for the number selected there. You'll noticed the top left block called "$ on hand" on this report I have removed that Buyer Filter (so its unfortunately returning a SUM of all the buyers information).
We're using BO Edge XI 3.1

Hi Tiffany,
Case1)
If i understood your scenario,You can use prompts in your reports,and based on your prompts reply your dashboard will get the required information and you can show that information in your Dashboard.
Required: Prompts for selection in the reports.
Case2)You can restrict the data by giving conditions to required objects for all the users.
Schedule the reports and the respected user's wise data you can show in the dashboard.
Here you need to fix the user level restrictions means run time you cannot pass user level restrictions as selections.Since you are going with the scheduling reports.
Required:Profiles and Publications in BO

Why you want to move dashboard one user to another user is not clear your requirement.
I have few ideas please try it. I am not sure this is what you’re looking so far.
1. We can try to move the dashboard manually through FTP software like (Winscp) this is Linux and UNIX.

If it useful for you please give me points.

How do I export photo's from one user acct. to another user acct

Trying to export photo's from one user acct. to another user acct. on same computer into second users Iphoto app.

File -> Export to the destop. Drag to Users/Shared Folder and then import from other account.
Or use iPhoto Sharing:
For iPhoto 09 (version 8.0.2) and later:
If you want the other user to be able to see the pics, but not add to, change or alter your library, then enable Sharing in your iPhoto (Preferences -> Sharing), leave iPhoto running and use Fast User Switching to open the other account. In that account, enable 'Look For Shared Libraries'. Your Library will appear in the other source pane.
Any user can drag a pic from the Shared Library to their own in the iPhoto Window.
Remember iPhoto must be running in both accounts for this to work.
If you want the other user to have the same access to the library as you: to be able to add, edit, organise, keyword etc.
Quit iPhoto in both accounts. Move the Library to the Users / Shared Folder
(You can also use an external HD set to ignore permissions, a Disk Image or even partition your Hard Disk.)
In each account in turn: Double click on the Library to open it. (You may be asked to repair the Library Permissions.) From that point on, this will be the default library location. Both accounts will have full access to the library, in fact, both accounts will 'own' it.
However, there is a catch with this system and it is a significant one. iPhoto is not a multi-user app., it does not have the code to negotiate two users simultaneously writing to the database, and trying will cause db corruption. So only one user at a time, and back up, back up back up.

Move a query to from one user group to another user group

Hi,
it's possible to move a query (SQ01) from one user group to another user group ??
Thank you.

Hi,
You can copy queries only if you have the authorization to make changes. Within your current user group, you can copy all queries. However, queries of other user groups can only be copied if the InfoSet used to define the query is assigned to both user groups.
To copy a query, proceed as follows:
1. Choose the name of the query you want to copy on the initial screen.
If you do not know the name, use the directory functions to display the query directories and then choose a query to copy from there.
2. Choose Copy.
3. Enter the name and the user group of the query that you want to copy in the dialog box. Furthermore, you must enter a name for the copied query. The system proposes values for this.
4. Choose Continue.
This takes you to the initial screen. The query is added and appears in the query directory. You can now continue.

Amit

How to change user id to another user id

Is it possible to change the user id to another user id and password? That is another person will be in charge of the Adobe Send instead of me.

You can change the non-Apple email address which forms your Appe ID and thus iCloud login at http://appleid.apple.com - click on 'Manage your Apple ID' and then on 'Edit' next to the ID address.
Once done you will need to sign out in System Preferences (or Settings)>iCloud on all your devices and then back in again.

Access one user to project another user

Hello,
I have another question. How can one user access to a project of another user?
User X have Project A
User Y have Project B
How can user "Y" access to project A?
Help, please.
Thanks.

Thanks for the inputs Sreenivas.
Are you aware of any authorization objects which can restrict access to Networks, Activities, Material components and Milestones, using 'Person responsible' or any other suitable field? I hope you got what I am looking for.
Restricting WBSE based on 'Person responsible' without restricting sub-ordinate elements is not much useful according to me. It helps only with simple project structures (having only WBSE) and nothing much. Right?
Thanks again

Password not accepted when trying to log off another user

Sometimes I want to shut down while another user is logged in and it asks for admin password. I type in correct password and it says it is invald. Password works the rest of the time. Any suggestions?

found this on the internet. I'm going to try it now.
This might make more sense then the Apple Support Document.
Insert Your Leopard DVD.
Shutdown and restart holding down C
pick your language
from the menu go to Utilities
Pick reset Password
Pick your hard drive (mines Macintosh HD)
From the users list select system Administrator
Enter a password and renter it and select reset
Quit password reset
Then quit OS x installer
Click the restart button
When your system restarts go to system preferences
Accounts and click the unlock button (the padlock in the bottom left hand corner)
It will ask for user name and password
For user name use the name Roots and the password you entered in the password reset.
This should unlock all the greyed out menus.
Check the Allow changes box to give you back Admin status.
Restart your computer.
This worked for me without another install. Hope it helps.

How do I change an existing user account to another user name?

I am trying to change the username on an existing Thunderbird email account to another user name. I have the name changed and can send email out from it. However, you cannot treply back to the email, you get an error message saying that the address does not exist. Nor can you receive an email sent directly to the account with the changed name.
Thank you,
Judy Pfeffer

Is the new username an established email account with an email provider? If not, that is your problem. You cannot just make up a username and expect to receive email with it.
I would not suggest changing usernames due to a new email account. I would set up a new account in Thunderbird for the new email account.

Automatically authenticate user ( based off users Windows network logon)

Basically I want to know when a logged in windows user visits a tomcat/jsp page, to know who they are so I can serve custom content to them.
I think the tomcat machine will not be running on windows, most likely an linux box.
So the machine that does whatever network authentication is probably not on the web server.
I dont know what is easiest and still secure way to handle this, i read some authentication can happen through active directory? LDAP? NTLM? I wouldnt know where to start.

Seems like worked.
added jCIFS jar file to tomcat app,
then added this to web.xml
<filter>
     <filter-name>NtlmHttpFilter</filter-name>
     <display-name>NtlmHttpFilter</display-name>
     <filter-class>jcifs.http.NtlmHttpFilter</filter-class>
<init-param>
<param-name>jcifs.netbios.wins</param-name>
<param-value>my wins ip1 here, my wins ip2 here</param-value>
</init-param>
<init-param>
<param-name>jcifs.smb.client.domain</param-name>
<param-value>name of our domain here</param-value>
</init-param>
</filter>
<filter-mapping>
     <filter-name>NtlmHttpFilter</filter-name>
     <url-pattern>/*</url-pattern>
</filter-mapping>
Then in your jsp....
<%
String Userid = request.getRemoteUser();
out.print(Userid); //should print yourDomain\username
%>
Note: Firefox asks for popup for NTLM authentication while IE is automatic,
might be able to get FF to stop asking you for user/pass if chaneg these settings in FF's about:config:
network.automatic-ntlm-auth.trusted-uris intranet (if site is http://intranet use intranet here)
network.ntlm.send-lm-response true

SBO 2007: MessageService Retrieve user inbox for another user?

Greetings.
I want to use the message service to retrieve the user inbox (in 2007) in an executable using sapbobscom (not via an add on) but I want to retrieve the messages for a user other than the one I will be connected via.
Is there any way to do this?
Also, is there a way to delete or remove the message (in OALR & related tables) when I'm finished processing it?
Thanks.

Hi John,
No, you can only retrieve the Inbox of the user account you used to connect to DI API - i.e. you have to "ask" for the password of the users you would like to handle the inbox...
If there would be a way to delete a message there should be a corresponding method in the MessagesService - in parallel to <i>GetMessage</i> and <i>SendMessage</i>.
...unfortunately that's not the case (for whatever reason - sigh!).
Sorry,
Frank

Please post back with how you get on, and whilst logged in mark the thread as solved, if applicable. (That helps others find it, note breakpad only searches sumo for solved threads)

You again enforce the constraints manually.

I get the "e lic already fulfilled by another user" problem without another user existing

For another problem I had to reinstall ADE. I authorized it with the same account, on the same pc, but it I can't but my ebooks back.
I'm using Vista.
PS: The original problem was that I couldn't copy my ebooks to my (authorized) ereader.

Hi Shreya,
That answer seems to work in purchased books but in my case I dont know who is the ebook provider in lebrary. I asked library people and they did not give me any contact to reset the activation. I will try again to find out that contact. I was wondering if there is any way at our side so we can fix this. Probably there is nothing. Thanks anyway.

HT4436 How can I turn off another users iCloud from my profile on a mac

My partner and I share our Mac, he uses icloud and I dont. So since he has installed it my profile reflects his icloud preferences, it brings his contacts and uses hies details for autofill. Please can somone tell me how to sort out?

Go to system Preferences>iCloud and click the 'Sign out' button. However, if he has signed you in there, your contacxts and calendars may well have got mixed up with his, and if so they will be on the cloud and will disappear when you sign out. Check whether your calendars are listed under his login name or 'On My Mac'; if the former, follow the second set of numbered instructions here:
http://www.wilmut.webspace.virginmedia.com/notes/icloudmovecalendars.html
With contacts, you will need to drag them individually to the Deskop (or a folder on it would be better), delete them from the iCloud listing, and reimport them once you have signed out.
