SharePoint and FrameMaker 10 Check in

I am using FrameMaker and the CMS feature to check documents out of our SharePoint repository at work. I can check documents out and edit them after I have logged into the repository manager. I edit my document but then when I right click on the document in the repository manager to check it back in, the "check in" option is grayed out or not selectable. Does anybody know what I have to do to correct this? I have the correct permissions to the SharePoint directory since I am the one who created the directory in the first place.
I thank you for your help!

Christian,
If nothing has worked for you yet, you could try the demo version of FM12 to see if this behaves better with Sharepoint. There has been some work done on the connectors in the the two releases since FM10.
Also, are you fully patched in FM10? The latest version was 10.0.2 (see: http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/product.jsp?product=22&platform=Windows)

Has anyone had success using SharePoint and FrameMaker 10 together using CMS?

Has anyone had success using SharePoint and FrameMaker 10 together using CMS?

Thanks for reminding to at least update the results thus far.
Update 4:
I did get quite a bit of support initially although slowly over a period of a month or so. After Adobe FM support and my SharePoint systems engineer reviewed how FM10 was setup on my computer (which I am the admin for our department’s SP site) and how it interfaces with our SharePoint 2010 Enterprise Edition, there was two conclusions:
Basically Adobe FM Support said that FM10 did not support claims-based authentication and they can no longer help me. They said it will work with FM11 when it comes out.
My SP Systems Engineer, said that FM10 is connecting to SP 2010 just fine but that the FM10 has a software glitch that causes FM10 lose control when executing checkout procedure within FM10. I can checkout and edit that same file in SP with no problems.
About a month later, I upgraded to FM11 and ran into the same problem. I attempted to get Adobe FM Support to help and they said they will look into and get back to me. That was in July and I have not heard anything more from them, and to be honest, my schedule has been extremely busy the last 5 months that I have not had time to pursue it any further.
Needless to say, I was very disappointed with the SP interface and, overall, the lackluster support I received from Adobe. Having a working SP interface was one of the criteria for purchasing TCS3.5 (and subsequent upgrade) in the first place.
One thing of note, we migrated from SP 2007 to SP 2010 in February 2011 and, at the time of Adobe support, I still had access to my SP 2007 site. FM10 and FM11 had to no issues working with SP2007. Unfortunately, SP 2007 is not an option for me anymore.
Also, another observation of FM10/11 not working with SP 2010, it seems that FM10/11 is automatically configured to work with SharePoint Drafts folder locally when connecting to the SharePoint library. This worked just fine with SP 2007 but SP 2010 does not use SharePoint Drafts folder locally the same way (the programming changed, don’t recall where I saw it, probably when searching this issue online) and I suspect that is one of the main issues why it does not work correctly.
So at this time, I have not found a working solution to this problem.

SharePoint and FrameMaker 10 CMS/Integration - Checked Out Files Stuck

Hello,
I originally set up the CMS connection to my SharePoint through FrameMaker using the domain name as a part of the user name (as suggested in a previous post), but have still run into this same issue discussed in that post, (unalterably locked files), and have been completely unable to resolve it.
When I check out a file, it gets "stuck" in that checked-out/locked state, and I'm unable to edit, check in, or discard my check out. The only thing I'm still able to do is view the files as "Open (Read only)," and delete the files.
I've even tried to access the files through the SharePoint site itself (as well as through SharePoint Workspace) in an attempt to check the files back in, but this command only returns an error about the files being checked out to a local draft, or one claiming the file may not even be checked out in the first place, etc. The only thing I seem to be able to do is delete the files from the server.
Thus far, I've been completely unable to use this tool.
Does anyone have any other suggestions? I'm at a loss.
Thank you,
Carolyn

Hello Vimal -
Thanks so much for your reply.
The login name that I used to connect to the SharePoint repository is in the format DomanName\EmployeeNumber. However, in the "Modified By" field of the Properties dialog, my full name is listed (last name, first name). Attempting to log in with the credentials DomainName\Full Name (as listed in the properties dialog) results in an error message reading: "The request failed with HTTP status 401: Unauthorized".
Working outside of FrameMaker's CMS, i am indeed able to upload, check out, edit, and check in files successfully. The problem, however, with working with the files from outside of FrameMaker itself, is that SharePoint doesn't understand file dependencies upon upload. So, when I open a checked out *.book file from the server, it cannot locate the individual (also checked out) chapter *.fm files necessary to edit the document - which means I can only work with these files through FrameMaker. And, it's only within FrameMaker's CMS that I'm running into an inability to check documents back in or edit them. Bummer...
Thanks again for responding. Any ideas welcome!
Carolyn

Requesting thoughts on Documentum, Sharepoint, and CMS with FrameMaker

My company is considering getting a CMS to be used with structured FrameMaker. We now have version 9 but willing to upgrade to version 10. I know that version 10 has the ability to connect to Documentum and Sharepoint.
I would like to know others' experiences with FrameMaker and a CMS...any CMS.
At the present, we work from shared drives, copying all imported illustrations (eps) by reference.
A few years ago I worked at a company that had Documentum. At that time, the writers had to check out all the illustrations and the Frame files to their desktops, copy the illustrations in by reference, make the PDF, and then check all back into Documentum. At the time, the rule was that one could not link to files within Documentum, only file on the desktop.
So, I am wondering if the above is still true. Moreover, how do others handle the need to link to illustration files that are in the CMS without (if at all) checking them all out. We create large manuals (200-300 pages) with many illustrations that are used in multiple manuals.
Any thoughts about Documentum, Sharepoint, or any other CMS is appreciated. I am not looking for dissertations on the subject, just indications whether it can be done and if not, how it is done.
Thanks in advance,
Van

And if anyone is using SDL's Trisoft, I'd love to hear about it, especially

How to sync Projects between Sharepoint and Project server 2010.

Hello,
My project is saved in SharePoint and I am trying to save and link my project from Sharepoint to Project server 2010 so that they will be saved in Sharepoint and Project Serverwill both and synced.Users can edit or update from Sharepoint
and Project server.
Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks,
Prashant
Thanks, Prashant

Hi Prashant,
It is a bit unclear how you have a project in Sharepoint AND a project in Project Server 2010.
The basic process is :
you have EPT, associated with a Sharepoint template
You create from Project Server 2010 (project center) a project choosing an EPT
a project plan (mpp) will be created, editable from PWA or MS Project Pro2010
a Sharepoint site associated with the project plan will be created, based on the EPT WSS template
In server settings, you can sync permissions between the project plan and the sharepoint site, and also check for the url and eventually update them.
Hope this helps.

SMB Sharepoints and Spotlight

Hello,
we run an XServe G5 with OS 10.5.8.
We have several AFP-Sharepoints and also several SMB-Sharepoints.
Everything is accessible.
Spotlight is enabled on all these Sharepoints.
When I perform a search Spotlight only shows results on the AFP-Sharepoints!!!???
What is wrong with Spotlight?
Thanks for your help.

I assume you are attempting to connect to the sharepoints via AFP?
In Server Admin -> AFP -> Settings -> Access, is Enable Guest Access checked?
Also for each sharepoint, under the Protocol Options, you'll need to allow Guest access on the AFP tab.

SSO with Sharepoint and BO

Void and Cancelled Checks

Hello All,
What is the difference between void and cancelled checks?
Thanks,
Deki

A voided cheque is one where the cheque number is marked as void but the payment document still exists. For example if a cheque was torn and you want to assign the payment to a different cheque.
A cancelled cheque is when you did not intend to make that payment so you void the cheque and reversed the payment.

MS Access, SharePoint and Security

Let's say I sign up for Office 365.
I use the SharePoint Site that comes with it to house my MS Access Lists and my compiled database *.accmde file.
Can I set up a separate sub-site with only admin access to house a list of userID's and passwords so that when the user runs the database, it looks up this list and identifies the user, type of user, and which filter for the data in the full access sites.
If that works, then I would also want to put the data in a limited sub-site and have the accmde file retrieve that data behind the scenes. I would like to limit accidental access to the data if at all possible.
Any suggestions on how to design the tool for this?
Frank

Hi FrankHayAlexcander
It seems you have the following questions about hosting Access data on Office 365
Can Access connect to multiple SharePoint sub-site?
Can you store User info in one sub-site to control what data the user sees?
Can you hide these sub-sites so that users can't accidentally see this data?
The short answer is that I'm not sure that what you are trying to do is even possible in a Web database published to SharePoint, and certainly would be very difficult in a traditional database.
If you create a Web database in Access 2010 and publish it to SharePoint, then it is limited to the tables / SharePoint Lists in that sub-site.
In this case the credentials of the user are passed to SharePoint to retrieve data. This means that to read the list the user would have to have permissions and so they could go out the site directly and see the same data.
Using SharePoint permissions you could control what the user can see, but Access isn't going to be able to add much to that.
If you create a traditional database, then you can link to lists in multiple SharePoint site as well as other providers like SQL, and Excel.
When you created the link table here you have the option to store the credentials with the linked table.
If you do not store the credentials the user will be prompted for the credentials to use.
You could store the credentials for an Admin user when you link the table, but the problem is that if a user opens your database in the full version of Access can get to the linked tables, they will be able to see all of the data anyway.
When it comes to security, the best answer is always to secure the data using the native features of the data store such as SharePoint, SQL, etc.

The following error comes up when I try to install the updated Firefox:
"The operation can’t be completed because some items had to be skipped. For each item, choose File > Get Info, make sure “Locked” is deselected, and then check the Sharing & Permissions section. When you are sure the items are unlocked and not designated as Read Only or No Access, try again."
When I follow the instructions in the error message, it shows that my user name has read and write access. There are a couple other items that are read only. I tried to change this to read and write, but the Sharing and Permissions options are greyed out and will not let me change them. What is the work around for this? I would really like to install the new firefox.
Thanks.

Hello,
Certain Firefox problems can be solved by performing a ''Clean reinstall''. This means you remove Firefox program files and then reinstall Firefox. Please follow these steps:
'''Note:''' You might want to print these steps or view them in another browser.
#Download the latest Desktop version of Firefox from http://www.mozilla.org and save the setup file to your computer.
#After the download finishes, close all Firefox windows (click Exit from the Firefox or File menu).
#Delete the Firefox installation folder, which is located in one of these locations, by default('''This will NOT delete profile info such as bookmarks and history'''):
#*'''Windows:'''
#**C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox
#**C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox
#*'''Mac:''' Delete Firefox from the Applications folder.
#*'''Linux:''' If you installed Firefox with the distro-based package manager, you should use the same way to uninstall it - see [[Installing Firefox on Linux]]. If you downloaded and installed the binary package from the [http://www.mozilla.org/firefox#desktop Firefox download page], simply remove the folder ''firefox'' in your home directory.
#Now, go ahead and reinstall Firefox:
##Double-click the downloaded installation file and go through the steps of the installation wizard.
##Once the wizard is finished, choose to directly open Firefox after clicking the Finish button.
Please report back to see if this helped you!
Thank you.

I knew I'd seen the solution you've provided somewhere - either in MacWorld or MacFormat - but couldn't remember the Gatekeeper bit!
I shall save it somewhere VERY safe now in case this happens again …

Perform static and dynamic check together on a customer?

Hello All,
Is it possible to perform static and dynamic check together on a customer?
I believe standard SAP does not allow both options together.
The scenario is: My client has customer who orders products 1 year in advance and create sales order with a future delivery date. The customer might have balance due on their account which is close to the credit limit. As a result the sale order should be blocked as if the automatic credit check is "Static". This would allow our customer service to call the customer and arrange for the payments.
Then 11 months later, a dynamic check should be performed on the customer to make sure the past due is under the credit limit. If the past due is over credit limit, the sales order must be blocked for delivery as if the credit check was "Dynamic" with 30 days horizon. This would again give our customer service time to settle the payment with the customer.
If anyone has implemented such a scenario, can you please give me an overview of how you did it?
Thanks very much in advance and Text Removed.
With Regards,
AM

Please dont include this text

Static and Dynamic Cannot be Performed together. They are mutually exclusive events.
Credit check can be performed either at Sale order level or at Delivery / PGI Level.
FCV3 is a good report to see whether a customer would fail a credit check. ( suitable for your customer service )
Coming to your Point , Assuming that the customer is eligible for a Credit of 50 Lacs. Now the Customer has placed an order for 60 Lacs. We set the Customer credit checking at order level . The Customers Sale order would get blocked.
The Customer service will follow up for the payment and see to it that it is made. Assume the customer has made a payment for 70 Lacs.
Now let us have a look at the account statement of the customer.
Account Statement : Customer Cr : 70 Lacs. Dr : 0. ( because no delivery and invoice so far has been made )
So we are supposed to deliver the Material worth value of 60 Lacs.
The First sale order worth 60 Lacs has been unblocked in VKM3. Now at the time of Delivery level why would you want to chekc the Credit limit again ? It has already passed the credit check.
It is not necessary to check credit limit . Because you have already performed the same at the order level.
Now the customer has come again and raised another sale order for 80 Lacs. The System would block him.
The system will never block the Previous delivery which you are, due for delivery to the customer.
If we keep on checking the Credits without delivering we would end up only raising in Sale orders and no Delivery to the Customer at all. The Debit side of his account will always be 0.
So i donot think Static and dynamic is needed . you can go for either Static or Dynamic.

Flow and Static checks

Hi there,
I created a datamodel and have applied a condition to it. When I execute the interface the invalid records are captured in the E$ table but all the other valid records do not appear on the target table. I couldn't able to find the reason for this. I have applied flow and static check to the condition and the same for the table column. Im not sure why the validate records are rejected.
Any help is appreciated.
Cheers

HI!
Let me understand, do you want the invalid records at target table?
If you use the flow control it will keep the records at E$ and WILL NOT load it.
If you use static control, it will LOAD the data and, after that, verify what are the records with problems.
Don't use both controls at same time, it doesn't make logical sense unless when needs to validate distinct constraints at each moment.
Does it help you?
