Synchronizing User-level Customization to Seed-level customization

Let's say I created a seeded customization layer called "site." And then I have a user called "X". Is it possible to programmatically synchronize(e.g. copy) X's user customizations into the "site" seed-level customization? Because from what I could glean from the customization xmls in the MAR files created in my integrated weblogic deployments, the customization metadata for user and seeded customization are nearly identical. It seems that the layer is identified by the folder structure(at least on file based MDS). So I would guess that it is possible to just dump one customization layer's data into another.
Basically, I'd like to find out if the current MDS API exposed by ADF has the necessary exposed methods required to accomplish this.

Hi,
the design time at runtime APIs for MDS in ADF are not yet available for public use (which also means that the APIs for this are not documented)

Deleting all user level customizations

In our WebCenter Portal 11g, PS5 with latest bundle patch, we have quite a few user-level customizations stored in MDS.
However, we have just changed our user base (different LDAP), so many of the users are no longer valid.
Does anyone know of a nifty way to delete all the existing user level customizations (and whatever else is stored in MDS on the user level)?

Hi Jaap.
I think that you will need to code some Java using MDS API to achieve your purpose.
I though in a solution based on next ideas:
1) Analyze metadata paths used by WebCenter in adf-config.xml (It indicates root path folders where apply customizations).
You have to take entries that are using oracle.webcenter.webcenterapp.internal.metadata.WebCenterUserCC customization class
2) Use MDS API to go every possible /cust/user folder of preconfigured paths of MDS and remove it. You can decompile previous class to check how and where is storing User customization class.
However the approach couldn't be good. Why?.
1) If you download and double check MDS paths (where user customizations are) always is using user name encrypted and then isn't easy generate MDS path to remove user customizations. Should investigate where and how is encrypting user when storing.
2) You have to know what users are obsolete because you have to generate the path based on that userID (encrypted).
It's only an idea in my mind. Don't know if exists better approach or something OOTB to delete User customization of obsolete users.
I hope this help you.

Converting user level personalizations to site level personalizations

Hi All,
My Requirement is as follows:
In one search page i have created one view to save my search by providing view name.
Now if i login from different user i am not able to see that view name in the drop down which i have created from different login.
i intend to see that view for all users even if create from single login.
i know that save search is user level personalization, but i want to get the same at site level.
but while creating there is option like site level or responsibility level.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in Advance.

Hi Reetesh,
find the below steps.
let me know if you need any clarity.
Create, Duplicate, Update or Delete an "admin-seeded user-level" personalization :-
==================================================
Select the Personalize pen icon to launch a focused version of the Page Hierarchy Personalization page for a selected boxed region.
Use the Hierarchy Page HGrid to identify the query region for which you wish to create an "admin-seeded user-level" personalization. (You can create seeded user-level personalizations only for a table or a HGrid in a query region.)
Select the Seeded User Views icon to launch the Personalize Views page where you can create, update, duplicate or delete "Admin-seeded user level" personalizations.
When you create, duplicate or update a seeded view, you navigate to the respective Create/Duplicate/Update Views page. Select Apply to save your changes when you are done.

Naren.

How can we do personalization at User Level

Hi ,
I have extended a controller .
and I have to replace the seeded controller to extended controller using personalization at User Level.
Can any one suggest how can we do personalization at user level.
Regards,
Krishna.

Hi,
If you have extended controller then why don't you use profile option for restricting at user level.
In controller use as following :
processRequest(...)
super.processRequest(...);
String userProfile = pageContect.getProfile("Profile option name");
if(null!= userProfile && !"".equalsIgnoreCase(userProfile.trim()) && "userRestriction".equals(userProfile.trim()))
//do your changes
follow same in processFormRequest as well.
Once it is done...replace you controller at site level. It will only work for the users for whom the profile option is set.

Make all the forms at a user level or responsibility level to be read only

Hi,
Please suggest me to make all the forms at a user level or responsibility level to be read only. So that when a particular user logs in, he gets all the form in read only mode or at a particular responsibility all the forms are read only so that we can attach this responsibility to the user for the same purpose.
Any ideas will be highly appreciated.

Error while performing Risk Analysis at user level for a cross system user

Dear All,
I am getting the below error, while performing the risk analysis at user level for a cross system (Oracle) user.
The error is as follows:
"ResourceException in method ConnectionFactoryImpl.getConnection(): com.sap.engine.services.connector.exceptions.BaseResourceException: Cannot get connection for 120 seconds. Possible reasons: 1) Connections are cached within SystemThread(can be any server service or any code invoked within SystemThread in the SAP J2EE Engine), 2) The pool size of adapter "SAPJ2EDB" is not enough according to the current load of the system or 3) The specified time to wait for connection is not enough according to the pool size and current load of the system. In case 1) the solution is to check for cached connections using the Connector Service list-conns command, in case 2) to increase the size of the pool and in case 3) to increase the time to wait for connection property. In case of application thread, there is an automatic mechanism which detects unclosed connections and unfinished transactions.RC:1
Can anyone please help.

LaserJet P1505n printing slow just for user-level accounts in Win7

I have several workstations running Win7 Pro 64-bit that have been installed as replacements for XP machines. All of them print to one of several P1505n printers, and are using the latest drivers from HP. Under XP there were no problems printing to these printers, but the Win7 machines have significant delays when trying to print. The Windows test page prints instantaneously, but printing from any other application has a delay of up to a full minute before the job begins to print. Once the job prints, it prints without issue.
One thing that I have noticed during my testing seems to point to permissions. If I am logged in using my admin-level account, everything prints as it should, with no delays at all. Once I log in with a user-level account, however, the delays begin. I found the driver files at C:\Windows\System32\spool\drivers\x64\3, but giving "everyone" full control over those files does not help.
Is there anything else that I should be looking at?
Thanks in advance!
Donny

In the end, I was able to resolve the problem by installing the Vista x64 drivers. No playing with permissions necessary.

Windows Server 2012 Group Policy Block USB Storage devices @ User Level Not getting applied on a Domain Client machine with Windows Server 2008 R2. Why?

Hello,
I have a Windows Server 2012 R2.
I have configured the Group Policy on it to block the usage of USB - Storage Devices @ user level on the client machines. It works properly for my Windows 7 client machines but it's not working on one of the machine having Windows Server 2008 R2 installed
on it (this machine is also a domain client in the same domain).
I will really be thankful if anyone can suggest some solution to this issue.
Please feel free to write back in-case I have missed anything obvious to be shared.
Thanks!

Permissions set at USER level

Can I just confirm, that if I open a User within Server settings and I see any of the Global permission tickboxes ticked then these have at some point been set at the User Level. If however, best practice has been observed and users have only ever been
selected against groups then I should NOT see any boxes in any of the Users permissions ticked at all? Is that correct?
Thanks in advance,
Steve

Steve --
You are absolutely right, my friend. If you see ANY checkboxes selected in the Categories or Global Permissions sections of a User page, then these selections represent an override to the permissions specified by the Groups to which the user belongs.
Best practice dictates that permissions for each user be controlled by adding the user to Groups, which makes for a simpler and easier to understand security model. This is a GREAT question, my friend, and I applaud you for asking it. :)

How to forbid command field at user level?

Does anyone know how can i forbid at user level the command field?
Thanks
M.

Hi marco,
1. In normal SAPGUI,
   there is some REGISTRY Value, (when gui installation is done)
2. If that setting/value in registry is changed,
   then the command field won't come.
3. For PORTALS,
    the setting is done in the ICF/Service parameter
   ~NOHEADEROKCODE=1
(By doing this, it will come in SAP GUI,
but won't come if we access r/3 from portal/internet explorer)

How to hide the columns at the end user level thru personalization

Hi all
how I can hide the columns that are displayed on the portal. Any personalize option for the end user? Any righ click or some thing?
I am looking at hiding columns not while developing the iViews / Pages, But in the browsers as the end user.
i can hide the columns what ever i want while creating the iViews for MDM data. but we cant provide the content administrator role to the end user for hiding the columns what ever they want. they want to hide the columns thru pesonalization option at the end user level.
Can you please let me know whether we can able to hide the columns at the end user level thru personalization ?? is it posible with standard iViews??
Regards
Sunil

Hi Sunil,
I understood your requirement properly and seems valid and I tried this at my end but i didnt get the solution. Field list is not visible in Personalize option. I dont think it is possible with MDM standard iViews.
I was thinking an alternative is if some how we manage to give the permissions to end user only on Result Set iView but if it would be possible it will not be a good design.
Lets wait for some inputs from others.

What is Execution Count in User Level Analysis?

Hi,
Can anyone through a light on that what is Execution Count Column means in User Level Analysis Report ,If it is the number of counts of the users execte the action then how we can discover or from when it counts the number of count ....??
is it count from the starting of the user using that tcode or action?

Hi Pranjal,
Yes, Prashant is correct it counts from the first job run, but as it takes data from STAD, so the counting is actually as per the STAD data store setting.
So if STAD store data for 4 days and if you run job in today it will count from 17.05.2014, make sure you have this job running regularly, if you miss this job run for more days than the retention period of STAD data, you may miss execution count for those days.
Hope this clears your query.
