Spiceworks' refusal to address the 'merge users' feature request

Hi Gabrielle. Thanks for the suggestions, I will definitely try PMing them, but who?It's nice that support will help out in the case of domain migrations etc., but really the ability to merge users is an every day operational issue that needs to be supported. The ability to have multiple email aliases for a user is also essential.I completely get that old users need to be kept around so that historical data has some place to be attached to, soI can accept the need to have inactive users rather than deleting them - but still users (and admins!) sometimes do crazy things that have to be cleaned up. A significant proportion of my users contact me from multiple email addresses, which results in duplication in the user database and therefore records not being correctly tracked to the user (an email address isn't, or shouldn't be, the same...

Hi everyone. Can I ask a favour of you all? Have you ever wished you could merge users and/or assign multiple email aliases to them? I'm betting that most Spiceworks users have been affected by this missing functionality.
If that's the case, or even if you just think it seems like a could idea, could you please visit the feature request and vote it up?
http://community.spiceworks.com/feature_request/show/People%20View/2401
I have personally been nagging for this feature for over 4 years and I've had enough. Does anyone have the CEO's email address?
All the best,
Tim Long

  • Good luck with the forum + ePub feature request

    Good idea about the new forum! I'm sure it will thrive.
    EPub creation in InDesign has advanced by leaps and bounds. Last week I created a fairly heavily illustrated fiction ePub out of InDesign in "one sitting", and -- amazingly -- without having to touch the resulting ePub in an external editor!  (This was a book that I had typeset for print in InDesign as well, so of course that makes it easier.) Just a little custom CSS, and some custom paragraph styles and object export settings. I think that's great, and thanks to Douglas Waterfall who is clearly doing an amazing job, plus is very attentive to listening to users' requests and ideas.
    Avoiding the use of an external editor is in my opinion very desirable, and currently, InDesign's Achilles heel when it comes to that is the navigation pane. The navigation pane is constructed according to a TOC that the user has created in InDesign, but not everything can be created with an InDesign TOC.
    On the most basic level, chapters in the actual ePub might be formatted as so:
    CHAPTER 1
    Trains
    CHAPTER 2
    Planes
    CHAPTER 3
    Automobiles
    ... but in the nav. pane, one would prefer:
    1. Trains
    2. Planes
    3. Automobiles
    As far as I'm aware, the only way to achieve that currently is by opening up the ePub after export with an external editor and editing the nav pane manually.
    So if InDesign could offer some way to have more flexibility with that, and avoid the need to edit externally, that would be great.
    Ariel
    PS And of course, some sort of live preview when editing for ePubs in InDesign is also crucial.
    PPS I still can't help wondering if a separate Adobe ePub editor wouldn't be better than foisting it all on InDesign. Obviously, this ePub editor should be able to open InDesign files.

    You have a wonderful positive attitude, Pierre, but two things: 
    1.  They shouldn't be a work in progress - they should be polished and complete.  As it is it gives people the impression that the company's products are unpolished and lacking in function.
    2.  We may have a say, through threads like this one, but it rarely seems to make any difference.  Again that seems to reflect Adobe's overall current philosophy for product development and release...  Consider the fact that they virtually always plan to release what they already have built - even though people may feed back many problem reports during beta testing.  It happened with the Photoshop CS6 beta, it happens with the Camera Raw betas, and we have this forum software that, despite being released in an unfinished state, isn't being actively modified per anyone's requests.
    There's only one good reason for exposing unfinished software - to solicit feedback to help find what's unfinished and prioritize what needs to be done to finish it.
    It's not working, Adobe.

  • Where do we use the three users created during BPC installation

    Hi Experts,
    I just want to know where we use the three users we create during installation. Because without  AppSet the users cannot log in.
    Though we map three different domain users in "UJA3_WRITE_SYS_USERS", except the user BPC_SYSADMIN, I think we cannot use the other users without assigning the Appset. Please correct me if I am wrong.
    Thanks in advance.
    Regards,
    Bobby

    ok I think there is some confusion here and that we are not all talking of the same thing...
    there are ABAP users, and there are Windows users (or in the case of 7.5, possibly CMS users).
    the ABAP users are used exclusively by the .Net server to connect to the ABAP server. They are never used to login from a client machine.
    The Windows (or AD or CMS) users are used to login to the clients.
    The .Net server will authenticate those logins from the clients, will then look in the tables in ABAP to check the rights of that user, and then take action based on those steps. If the user is authenticated and has the required rights to the appset, then the .Net server will perform the actions that the windows user is requesting. To perform those actions, it will connect to the ABAP server under one of the 3 ABAP accounts as described earlier
    so if the user is in Admin and for example wants to process a dimension, the .Net server will use ABAP account BPC_admin to connect to ABAP and take action.
    if the user is in BPC for Excel and wants to input data in a schedule, the .Net server will connect using BPC_user to ABAP server and take action.
    in other words, those 3 accounts are completely transparent to the client side, are never used on the client side, and can be consider as internal to the server, as they are used only between servers.
    once BPC is installed, only the windows account that was used to install the .Net componenet will have access. That account can be used to install the admin client and to login to the admin client. From there, other windows accounts can be given rights to BPC.
    I hope this helps and clarify
    best regards

  • Feature request: option to deactivate builtin screen when monitor connected

    This is a feature request for laptops, or rather for the Air specifically. To see why it might be a good thing, see this thread:
    http://forums.macrumors.com/showthread.php?t=449778
    I'd like a checkbox in the display preferences to deactivate the internal monitor when an external monitor is plugged in. This would save load on the Air's GPU and reduce heat while using an external monitor.
    Users of the regular Macbook might want this as well.

    Apple doesn't monitor the forum for feature requests and the like. It's just for user-to-user help.
    Also note that this feature already exists: all Mac laptops sold in the past few years, including the MacBook Air, can be run with only an external monitor. It's called closed-lid mode.
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=86286
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=307315
    If you then want to open the lid to increase cooling, you can. Once the external display is attached, the internal display does not come on automatically when you open it.
    If you still want to give Apple feedback on another issue relating to the MacBook Air, the link is:

  • FAQ: How do I submit a bug report or feature request or otherwise give feedback about Premiere Pro?

    The best way to submit a bug report or feature request is to use the bug-report/feature-request form.
    The Premiere Pro team doesn’t  necessarily see and record every post on every forum and social network, but we do see, record, and track every entry  through the the official feature-request/bug-report form.
    It also helps a lot if you opt into the Product Improvement Program.
    Also, be sure to use the crash reporter.
    We really do read all of the bug reports and feature  requests, and the software really does get a lot of benefit from  detailed crash reports.
    Don’t forget about contacting Adobe Technical Support or Customer  Service, too. For information on how to contact Adobe Technical Support,  see this page. (Note that you must register your product before you can open a technical support case for it.)
    If you have tried to get help from our support staff, but the service  was inadequate, I can help you to escalate your issue if you send me  your case number at kopriva at adobe dot com. You must provide me  a case number. I am not offering to solve your problem myself; rather, I  am willing to forward your information to someone if you have already  hit a dead end with our Technical Support or Customer Service.
    If you have feedback about the content of the Premiere Pro Help document,  then please add a comment at the bottom of the relevant page. You can  add comments to add information, to add links, to make corrections, or  to ask for clarification.
    If you want to keep up with the Premiere Pro team, then you can follow our blogs, Facebook page, and Twitter feed and so on.
    Oh, and I can’t resist this opportunity to remind you to update to  the most recent version of the application. Don’t be surprised when the  first thing that you hear back from us is that you need to install the  latest updates. We fix a lot of things in updates, and we don’t want to go chasing bugs that we’ve already fixed. We’ll keep you posted on our blogs, Facebook page, and Twitter feed about updates as they become available.

    Hi qwerty,
    Dun tink that creative customer support sucks cos I had been dealing with them in the past and I can say that their service are quite gd and fast. If you wanted a refund, I tink you need to contact the store that sells you the product. Dun tink creative will refund you though.

  • What Do You think of My Feature Requests?

    Hi, I submitted the following Feature Requests to the Premiere CC feature requests form.
    I think Premiere CC keeps improving but there are some things that really annoy me.   And below are some of my requests.   I'd love to know if any of these requests are in error - if I'm actually missing something. 
    Thanks for checking these out!
    *******Enhancement / FMR*********
    Brief title for your desired feature:
    AUTO-PATCHING
    How would you like the feature to work?
    When I select a Track Target - such as V1 Target -  the Source patch should follow along. For example, if I select V1, then the V1 Source should automatically move next to V1
    Why is this feature important to you?
    This saves time and saves an extra, unnecessary step of having to move the Source patch.
    This makes editing faster and more intuitive.
    *******Enhancement / FMR*********
    Brief title for your desired feature:
    Increase/Decrease Volume using Keyboard for MULTIPLE CLIPS at once (between In and Out)
    How would you like the feature to work?
    1. Set in and out in the Timeline
    2. Make sure Audio Targets are set for the tracks you want to affect
    3.  Press your keyboard shortcuts for increasing or decreasing volume
    Result: All Audio volumes between In and Out go up or down by the same amount.
    Why is this feature important to you?
    This saves a lot of time. Currently, I have to copy and paste Volume attributes and that wastes time and is not as intuitive.
    *******Enhancement / FMR*********
    Brief title for your desired feature:
    Select Nearest Edit Keyboard Commands Should Select All Nearest Edits on All TARGETED TRACKS, even if staggered
    How would you like the feature to work?
    1. Position Playhead near the edits you want selected (for Trim)
    1B: Make sure the Track Targets for the tracks you want to affect are highlighted
    2. Press the Keyboard Shortcut for Select Nearest Edit…
    Result: Even if the edit points don't all line up on the same frame, Premiere should select (with a Roller, etc) ALL edit points NEAREST to the playhead on Tracks which have their Target buttons selected.
    How it works now:  Now Premiere only select those edit points that line up together the same frame.
    Why is this feature important to you?
    How Premiere currently works wastes a lot of time. It currently requires the editor to manually click and add other edit selections.
    Currently, Premiere does not actually select all the edit points on SELECTED TRACKS.
    *******Enhancement / FMR*********
    Brief title for your desired feature:
    REMOVE EFFECT - ALLOW US TO CHOOSE WHICH EFFECTS
    How would you like the feature to work?
    1. Highlight one or more Clips to select them.
    2.  Press the Remove Effects Keyboard Shortcut
    What should happen: Premiere should present you with a window that allows you to check the effects you want to remove or uncheck the effects you don't want to remove.
    Why is this feature important to you?
    This is very important because often I have a remove just one effect on a large group of effects.  I don't have the time - it would take forever - to go through each individual clip and eliminate that particular effect in the Effect Controls panel.
    *******Enhancement / FMR*********
    Brief title for your desired feature:
    A Paste Insert should move the IN/OUT marks down the Timeline, just like the clips
    How would you like the feature to work?
    1. Set an In an Out point somewhere in the timeline.
    2  In the timeline, after copying some material,  PASTE INSERT, the clips in front of a whole bunch of other clips (also earlier than the In/Out marks)
    What Should Happen:
    Material AND In/Out marks should shift to the right to maintain sync.
    What currently happens:
    Premiere correctly shifts the Clips that follow the pasted material, Down the Timeline, to maintain sync.  However, Premiere keeps the In/Out Marks where they are.
    Why is this feature important to you?
    I often copy  material that's between In/Out marks and then go earlier in the Timeline and paste Insert that material. But when I jump back to the In point (Go to In) the In/Out marks haven't move and so I have to find my place in the material all over again.
    It shouldn't work this way. It wastes time. And other NLEs don't do it this way. They shift the In/Out marks.

    Nice requests. Just trying to be helpful here:
    Re REMOVE EFFECT - ALLOW US TO CHOOSE WHICH EFFECTS
    I agree - this could be quite useful. However, It sounds like using adjustment layers may be helpful for your workflow also?
    Re: Increase/Decrease Volume using Keyboard for MULTIPLE CLIPS at once (between In and Out)
    I've stopped using volume altogether now, and instead use 'Gain' mapped to "g" key in premiere keyboard layout. SUPER useful, for all the reasons you describe. I've never used I/O marks, but you can make big selections of clips, or a whole track's. Volume controls in Premiere, as far as I can tell, caps at +6DB for some reason. I routinely have to go much higher than that. also there is a very intelligent gain options screen that lets you bump your selected clips relatively by +/- DB levels; or set absolute values; OR set normalization targets. I LOVE IT, and its all I use now.
    It seems to me that the audio component of Premiere if far more sophisticated than any other NLE I've used  [ Avid MC, FCP...]. My only caveat is that volume and gain are not integrated across all methodologies. For example, you can have a volume adjustment on the clip, the track, and gain adjustments on the clip all operating independently- its alot to keep track of on projects that get passed back and forth between different editors with different methods!

  • Feature Request Marked as Being in SQL Developer 3.0 Isn't

    The Unit Test feature request titled "Unit Test Implementation Specific Startup/Teardown" has a Status that is "In Release 3.0", but what was added in version 3.0 was the ability to have multiple startups and teardowns per Test, not what this feature request was actually requesting, which was the ability to give each implementation of the Test its own specific Startup and Teardown (which would be in addition to the Test's Startup and Teardown).
    Oracle: Please update this feature request's status accordingly, or if you need clarification of the feature request, please let me know.

  • Feature Request:  iTunes to merge the "Song Name" & "Artist" fields

    This is a feature request that i would like to see in a future release of iTunes. The option to merge the "Song Name" & "Artist" fields together. This would be a very valuable option when surfing your iTunes Library thru your iPod, Front Row, or Apple TV.
    Let me explain:
    Not everyone knows at the top of their head who sings a particular song. This is especially true when someone other than the owner of the iTunes Library is browsing through it.
    Let's say that I want to browse my ENTIRE music collection all at once. The easiest way to do this, is by browsing thru the "Songs" list because it creates 1 massive list displaying ALL the songs in the library, without having to jump into different fields. The current problem with this, is, it only lists the name of the song. There are 2 problems with this philosophy. #1 - You must know who sings the songs to have any chance of making this a useful option because the artist is not displayed. #2 - It puts them in alphabetical based on the song name. Once again, not a very useful way to make this option really functional because you will have the Artists all over the map! Keeping the Artist's songs together makes it a much more feasable option.
    The solution, I feel, would be to have iTunes create an "Option" that would allow users like me to make iTunes merge the "Artist" & "Name" fields together. Make it an option so that users who do not see the benefit to this, would not have to use it. By doing this, I could now surf my ENTIRE collection via the "Songs" field in a very logical approach.
    For an example, let's take a song: Artist - "Def Leppard" & Song Name - "Pour Some Sugar On Me". By clicking this option, when browsing thru the "Songs" field, it would now display as: Def Leppard - Pour Some Sugar On Me. This allows me to browse my ENTIRE library while at the same time, keeping "like" songs together, and making it very easy to distinguish whether or not it is a song I want to select. By knowing that Def Leppard is a Rock Artist, it helps to distinguish the song.
    I work for a custom AV integration shop that has put hundreds of music servers into homes. We have been teaching our clients the benefits of this for some time now, with great feedback. The only problem presently, is it requires the users to have to re-edit every single file by putting the Artist's Name & the Song Title into the "Name" field of iTunes. Very time consuming! As well, because you also have the "Artists" name entered in the "Artist" field, you get Front Row displaying the "Artist" name twice, once in the song name, and once in the artist's field.
    Any feedback would be welcomed.
    Regards,
    Trevor

    You might be able to get where you want using Chaotic Software's MediaRage. It can automate and batch tag editing, including building a Title tag that combines Artist and Title and, to possibly address you other problem, blanking the Artist tag.
    MediaRage is not expensive and it is very powerful, you can even define regexs for how to parse tags.
