SharePoint 2013 edit for date

In an InfoPath 2013 form that uses a custom list, I want to be able to create an edit for a date. This would occur when the user does not use the date picker but uses enters a value. If the user enters a value that is not a valid date, InfoPath will show
there is a problem.
However I need to generate a custom error message saying the date is an invalid date format. I know that I can use some kind of a regular expression, but I do not know what regular expression to use. I know the internal storage for the date is different
than what is displayed by InfoPath.
Thus can you show me what custom edit pattern I can use to edit a date field?

1. xdUtil:Match, - InfoPath syntax for pattern match
2. dfs:dataFields/my:SharePointListItem_RW/my:DateCreated? - They are way of extracting inner xml from infopath xml with is fields name.(italics)
See these links to learn how to do pattern match validation in infopath.

SharePoint 2013 List - Multiple Data Types in the Same List

In the same SharePoint 2013 list in Data Sheet View, I want to have one column where my end users enter inputs for KPIs. There are 3 groups of KPIs (A, B and C) and they each have different data types (A-string, B-decimal, C-percentage) and I want to be
able to base their input options off of the KPI type
Does anyone have any suggestions on how I can leverage my parent-child relationships so when an end user...
1. Picks KPI type A, they can select from a choice filed (Green, Yellow, Red)
2. Picks KPI Type B, they can enter a decimal (-1.000 to 2.000)
3. Picks KPI Type C, they can enter a percentage (-100.00% to 100.00%
I'm using if I want to keep this in one list, one column and in data sheet view that the out of the box solutions won't meet my requirements. I was looking at some solutions from Bamboo (Lookup Selector Column) but don't think that applies here.
Thanks!

Hi Johnny, you can accomplish this using cascading lookups in InfoPath if that program is available to you. Otherwise, if you want a 3rd party product, we use the Kwiz cascading lookup and it's worked wonders for us:

SharePoint 2013: Edition requirement for multi tier setup.

Dear all,
I am planning to setup a high availability 3-tier SharePoint farm.
My question is which edition of SharePoint 2013 should i purchase? Standard version or enterprise version?
My requirement is just a simple document management system.
Any help/guides would be much appreciated.
Many thanks
Regards
vinay

You can use any edition for high availability on the SharePoint side: Foundation, Standard, or Enterprise.
SQL Server is a different story, you'll want to look at the options for high availability available with each edition of SQL Server.

How to create a bc model for sharepoint 2013 that consume data from two Sql tables?

Hi everyone!!!
I have created several external contents using SQL Server databases as datasource. The thing is every time I created one, only consume one table and define operations for that table. I would need to create an external content that can contain the
information of two tables. I tried to export the bdc model and type the query using left joins but nothing happens...I did it in that way for sharepoint 2007 and works!!!
I know if a create a view in the database I can have the data that I want and I can create the external content using the view. But the thing is I don't have access to the database for creating anything, just read it.
can anybody can help me, please?
Thanks.

Please follow this article to write SSRS reports with data source as SharePoint list/calendars etc. All document libraries, list and calendars are derived from base list class so you can use any of this type as a data source
http://www.mssqltips.com/sqlservertip/2068/using-a-sharepoint-list-as-a-data-source-in-sql-server-reporting-services-2008-r2/
Once your SSRS report is developed, you have multiple ways to show it in SharePoint
- upload to SSRS server and show in sharepoint in a page viewer web part or simply open it as a link in new window
- configure SharePoint environment with integration to SSRS and upload report to SharePoint library. Display report in a web part page using SSRS web part.

Accessing Sharepoint 2013 externally for domain users and customers

Just an FYI I am not a SP administrator by any means but have be tasked with taking over this project and could use some assistance.
Sharepoint 2013 is working fine internally. Users access the site and login with their domain credentials. Our client is moving one of their departments to another building down the street and we'd like them to be able to access local resources without the
use of another server or site to site vpn or standard vpn.
My question is, how do we make Sharepoint accessible outside of their local network?
If we open up a port on the router and have it forward all request to Sharepoint server will we be able to access it?
Also, how will they authenticating with the Sharepoint Server? Do they use the same user credentials?
I forgot to mention this is Sharepoint 2013 Enterprise Edition. We are also using Project Server 2013 as well.
Thanks in Advance

Hi 3s1k,
According to your description, my understanding is that you want to access the SharePoint site from Internet.
You need to first ensure that you enable Anonymous Access for your web application. You'll then need to set up DNS for the domain you own to point to your web front end server (or virtual IP if it's load balanced). Then set up the appropraite IIS bindings
for the web application, and finally you'll need to extend your web application to an Internet Zone and give it the appropriate domain name.

Sharepoint 2013 onedrive for business Ipad App

Hi
We have an on-premise sharepoint 2013 installation and we would like to achieve access to the private library/onedrive using some of our ipads. We have installed One drive for business connected to a VPN. We have put in the url of the
site, which is our intranet page, enter my domain credentials click sign in and get the message. There is a problem with your account. Please try again later
While connected to the VPN if I use the browser to the page it works and I can navigate to other parts of the intranet.
Am I missing something simple?
What should the internal address be like when trying to access onedrive?

SharePoint 2013 - Asking for password with NTLM

Hi All,
We have deployed a web application using NTLM with single sign on. It’s a secure site and in IIS bindings we have SSL certificate attached with this web application. However, many users are keep getting windows authentication prompt as shown:
There are lot of blog posts that solve the issue by adjust IE settings >> Security >>
Sites >> Advanced >> and added the site URL and
Security
>>   Local Intranet >> Custom Level >> At bottom choose “Automatic logon with current username and password”
http://blog.fpweb.net/sharepoint-credentials-prompt-quick-tip/#.VPBz3vmUdUW http://www.sharepointdiary.com/2012/04/sharepoint-keeps-asking-for-password.html
https://sysadminspot.com/windows/google-chrome-and-ntlm-auto-logon-using-windows-authentication/ (IE, Chrome, Firefox)
http://social.education.purdue.edu/edit/2011/03/sharepoint-pw-prompts/
I have tested the blogs posts and change the settings in our development environment
and no windows authentication was shown with my username on the SharePoint 2013 environment. But, all related to change IE settings. In our organization, we have around
2000 users. It be impractical to set for users for these IE settings and network team regularly pushes group polices.
Q: Is some configuration has to be set on IIS or
some settings on SharePoint that users don’t get windows authentication? I have tried most of options but could not resolve this issue.
Any pointers would be greatly appreciated.
Cheers,
Aroh Shukla

Sites go into the Intranet Zone, not the Trusted Zone. Only Intranet is configured, by default, to automatically pass credentials to SharePoint.
Yes, there are scenarios where this may not work, e.g. if you've configured the Web Application with Kerberos but didn't configure the SPN. Or if you're using Kerberos Constrained Delegation with Domain Controllers older than Server 2012 and your users are
in a different forest, etc.

ISSUE Sharepoint 2013 databases for reporting services on the second server SQL 2012

Hello,
I have server A: Operating system windows 2012 standard, SQL server 2012 standard
instance: Sharepoint contains data for sharepint
instance: Reporting should be contain databases for reporting
Server B:
Windows server 2012 standard contains installation Sharepoint 2013
Sharepoint works (without reporting services), it is OK - databases are located on server A:
My issue is:
When I have installed reporting services on server B, I have already installed SQL server 2012 on server B, it works.
I am able to create report in report builder adn place it in to sharepoint.
But I would like to use only one full SQL machine on server A:
When I reconfigure repoting settings on server A in central administration - manage service aplications,
On the SQL server A in instance reporting , there is automatically created databases. It is no problem.
But the first difference is, when I want to manage service aplication for reporting in
Provision Subscriptions and Alerts, there is information
SQL Server Agent state cannot be determined
When I want to create report in report builder, I have issue:
server A-7380mw016\reporting it means server A with full SQL server:
The Test of connection was successful
Then I have clicked test connection
I have recieved this screen with fail: Logon faild for user NT Authority\anonymous logon
My account belongs to SQL admin on server A (A-7380mw016\reporting) I do not know it is not possible to create report, when it is possible to test connection in the first step and in the second step, there is problem...
Please, can somebody help me?

Hi,
Since you are getting an Anonymous Logon error, it appears there may be a problem passing your credentials to the SQL Server Agent Service. This would indicate a Kerberos issue. See this thread for details:
http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/sharepoint/en-US/46b7c773-6a77-435d-b471-cb9a6ec41c43/has-anyone-else-upgraded-reporting-services-to-denali-2012

http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/video/Video/hh858469
Tips from the video:
We are connecting to Reporting services using Kerberos when using Reporting Services in SharePoint integrated mode
For the account using reporting services, we just need a dummy SPN. We go to Attribute editor tab in AD for RS account. And then we will be enabled with Delegation tab.
In Delegation tab. I we are using claims to windows token, we need to use "Trust this user for delegation to specified services only"
There you have 2 options: "Use Kerberos only": It means I only want to delegate in the situation where the service that is doing the delegation actually has the Kerberos ticket to start with
"Use any authentication protocol" When we need protocol transition (like from NTLM to claims for intra farm communication)
We need to delegate this to SQL server.

Hi Bhawna.,
According to your description, my understanding is that you want to know whether SharePoint 2013 support Power Query and refresh power query data from excel services.

Sharepoint 2013 Infopath form Date Picker causes screen to move shift to the top in non-IE browsers

I created a list in Sharepoint 2013 that has a date field. I then created an Infopath form that has that date field in there. When I go to insert a new item in the list, clicking on the datefield brings up the calendar control. In IE the page doesn't move,
in non-IE browsers it moves the page to the top. Is there a fix for this?

Also want to know how to fix this behaviour!

Sharepoint 2013 - Search for link names on a single page

Hi
I am messing around with SP13 and trying to get my search result web part to only search for link names and display all results.
I have created the search source to point at the sub site. If I search for part of a link name it will list all links in one long row as a single result.
Example: One single page contains all links. Each link points to a .aspx page. The search source is pointing at this page and it can display results but only as a single result containing all links as one line of text.
Say I have 1000+ links of which 50 has names such as Link1-Item1-Basket1, Link1-Item1-Basket2 up to Link1-Item1-Basket50.
When I search for Link1-Item1 I would like my search results to display 50 results as 50 individual links.
Is this possible?

Hi,
Yes, you can format the search results as you expected. But you have to create a custom display template to format your results such as extract the links from each results and display it as separate link.
Once display template created you have to map the display template to your search results web part.
Please refer to the following articles.

Single SharePoint 2013 Farm for two geographical locations

Dear All,
I want your expert advise and suggestion on an "Architecture" for Deploying SharePoint 2013 in multiple geographical locations. I have read every line in article:http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/gg441255%28v=office.15%29.aspx before posting
this question, for the following scenario:
Scenario:
Two locations, say, Loc1 and Loc2.
SharePoint Farm = Collection of SharePoint servers connected to the same Configuration DB.
WFE1 will be in Loc1 and WFE2 will be in Loc2 (and connected to the same config DB i.e. same Farm).
App1 will be in Loc1 and App2 will be in Loc2 (and connected to the same config DB i.e. same Farm).
Users from Loc1 will be directed to WFE1 and Users from Loc2 will be directed to WFE2.
App1 will run services and service applications consumed by web applications specific to Loc1.
App2 will run services and service applications consumed by web applications specific to Loc2.
I can implement all of the above.
Now question is "How to provide local flavor for back end SQL?"
suppose, I configure "Active-Active" SQL clustering SQLNode1 at Loc1 and SQLNode2 at Loc2, how do I specify that web applications meant for Loc1 are fetched from SQLNode1 and web applications meant for Loc2 are fetched from SQLNode2.
Users in Loc1 are not interested in web applications meant for Loc2 and vice-versa. Currently we are having Two (2) different farms at each location, but going forward we want to consolidate so that "Infrastructure maintenance" is minimized and
investment in third party solutions can be leveraged by both locations.
Naveed.DG MCITP, MCTS -SharePoint 2010 Administrator "Vote As Helpful" If it helps!!

How far away are these SharePoint servers away from each other? Remember that regardless of where a SharePoint server is, it must be able to write to the active instance of the Configuration database, and must have that 1ms timing.
Active-Active SQL clusters has never been mentioned, as far as I'm aware, in TechNet documentation. I'd consider this scenario unsupported unless you talked to PSS otherwise.

Configure a sharepoint 2013 site for external and internal access

I need to configure a local install of sharepoint 2013 so that users can access it internally and externally using windows/AD authentication. The internal and external addresses are different.
I have bound an external ip to the domain for external access.
I have created Alternate Access mapping, and bound the host header but I get a file not found message for external access.
Have I missed something here? why the error and how can it be fixed. Step by step process would be appreciated.

Hi Luis,
According to your description, my understanding is that the error occurred when accessing the site externally.
The most common cause for this is that the IIS host header is configured incorrectly. The 404 will appear because we are hitting a different IIS web site and not the one we are intended to.
Here is a similar issue for you to take a look:

SharePoint 2013 permissions for each user

I am working on my own SharePoint 2013 test site and I need to grant permission to the test accounts. I want to make certain the 3 test accounts can not see the lists, files, and workflows that the other users created.
Do I need to grant permission at the site level, user level, custom list level, for each workflow, and/or for each custom form? Do I invite each user and/or 'share' with each user? Can you tell me and/or point me to a source that will tell me what level
of permission I need and how to grant this type of permission?

Wendy,
In sharepoint, you can grant permission at any level you want. That permission will carry forward by default until someone break them and configure unique permission.
In ideal case, we recommend to use share security group to grant permission and not grant to individual user. Also try to restrict 2 default site group (Owner/member/viewer) as much possible, but in reality ppl break these rule often and eventually end up
with maintenance overhead.
I will recommenced you and everyone to go through this nice ppt which clears sharepoint permission idea in our mind.
