There is no Resolve Manager of User (Requires SAP HR) object

Hi,
I'm trying an exercise by following .pdf document.
There is Resolve Manager of User (Requires SAP HR) object in .pdf document, but there is no this object in our portal.
Guided procedures --> Design Time --> Create Callable Object --> User Mangement ==>Resolve Manager of User (Requires SAP HR)
How can i get this object present in our portal?

Thanks.

The security system requires that directories (of what type I don't know) be downloaded to the local client. Previously, we just copied the existing default localhost, changing the IP from 127..*. to the IP of the server given us by the security company, and gave that IP a name like c0000013***.&^%.local. Finally, we set this as type: server. Apparently, the security system downloads data to the localhost, interprets it, then gives us a security signon. To further complicate matters, the company that wrote the software has just been bought and the new guys don't seem to have a clue what they've gotten themselves into.
If is just substitute the IP and server name, i.e. 100.100.100.100/c0000013***.&^%.local in the browser, the page times out because the page contains a crossdomain.xml call to the authorization data that's already supposed to be stored in the localhost, and of course, it can't find it. I've looked at Window>Activity in Safari on computers that still work on the system, and they don't have the crossdomain.xml problem because they've already logged into the system the first time, downloaded whatever it is they need, and then when they access the page again, the local data are combined with the page and we're presented with.
No one at the new security company can even explain what they're supposedly downloading in the crossdomain.xml.

  • Is there configuration to have message for users when a spec object is already open for edit?

    We are on v6111 and appreciate the warning message that tells the second user when two users have editted the same spec object and changes of the first have already been saved.  What we are coming up against is users who want to know that someone else has already opened the spec object for edit.  Is there a configation for this?  Users don't like being informed after they enter data that someone else already saved a different edit ... they would like the warning before they do the actual work because it feels like a wasted effort ... If warned up front, they can come back and do the data entry later.  We are trying to find the appropriate configuration option to put the warning message in the appropiate UX process/timing.  Thank you!

    Hi Beckie,
    Sorry, but there is no out-of-the-box configuration to show this type of message.

  • Manage multiple users backups

    Hi, I try to explain my situation and all my troubles with Time Capsules.
    Here @ work we have around 20 apple computers all running latest OSX 10.8.2 and I use 3 different 2TB Time Capsule to store and balance users backups.
    During last 3 years some user is gone, some new arrived so Time Capsules are still storing unused and unuseful backups.
    Moreover we changed computer and users would like to start brand new backup.
    Is there a way to manage different users backup? I really need to delete some old Backups.backupdb folder.
    If I try to access the time machine from my MBP I just can see of course my folder.
    Is there out there some administrative tool to manage what stored in my Time Capsules?
    I expected from Apple to have more controls on "Utility AirPort" application, but the only thing I can do on my TC disk in to initialize it... we cannot just initialize a disc every time we need to mange it.
    Any solution?

    There are plenty of third party software..
    CCC, superduper and chronosync.. being the most often quoted.. I use TM to a non apple NAS and occaionally free superduper to make a disk image.
    Apple made the TC very difficult to use as you seem to want to use it.. in that, you cannot properly partition it. You can create disk images.. see
    http://pondini.org/TM/Time_Capsule.html
    Q3 he goes through setting up disk images.
    If you create a disk image for each Mac, then it makes it fairly easy to delete and recreate an image when you need to. Although you are now going to use the space somewhat less efficiently in that disk images will be of fixed size. I think this is not really as big an issue as it might seem as TM handles multiple computers connecting to the TC very poorly.
    I am rather more a hands on person.. I would pull the hard disk out of the TC and parition it properly on a Mac.. and put it back in the TC.. this voids the warranty of course. Which is what makes the TC so useless.. it is a sealed device.. there is no other NAS which seals you out of the hard drive to fix, format, replace, repair.
    You can hang multiple hard disks onto a TC via USB.. that will work for wireless but is extremely slow for ethernet.. and certainly USB disks are not without issues.. and latest Mac OS has been making a mess of reliable connection to them..
    Otherwise a Synology or QNAP NAS.. Setup different user login for each user.. then use TM or one of the alternatives.

  • Are There Any Good Windows Store Apps For Managing AD Users?

    I'm thinking of buying the $79 HP Stream 7 tablets (1GB RAM 16GB storage) and using them as pocket computers to manage AD users while walking about.
    We could simply run Remote Desktop to access our workstations and use RSAT tools, but it would be nicer if there was a touch friendly interface we could use on a 7 inch screen to easily do tasks such unlock and reset user passwords without dealing with remote
    controlling another PC through the tiny desktop UI.

  • Is there a way to allow contributor users to add web parts to a page without granting them "Add and Customize Pages" permission?

    I am working on an enterprise wiki site collection, and when contributor users try to add web parts they will get the following error:-
    A Web Part or Web Form Control on this Page cannot be displayed or imported. You don't have Add and Customize Pages permissions required to perform this action.
    So I granted the Contribute Permission level an extra permission which is “Add and Customize Pages”. Now contributors will be able to add/edit/delete
    web parts. But they will have extra permissions that I do not want them to have , such as changing the design and customize some page layouts, also they can access the site settings and create site columns !!.
    So my question is basically if there is another way to allow users with contribute permission to be able to add web parts without granting any extra permission. In other words to treat adding web parts as normal content such as image, Text ,tables ?
    Thanks

    I dont think so.
    http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc288074%28v=office.14%29.aspx
    Add and Customize Pages
    Add, change, or delete HTML pages or Web Part pages, and edit the Web site by using a Windows SharePoint Services-compatible editor.
    View Items, Browse Directories, View Pages, Open
    Design, Full Control 
    If this helped you resolve your issue, please mark it Answered. You can reach me through http://freeit-support.com/
    so there are not any workarounds or any custom settings which i can use to implement any of these:-
    - To force Contributor users to add web parts without granting them "Add and Customize Pages"
    - If i grant them "Add and customize Pages" permission, to stop the ability to access the site settings ?
    Please can any one advice on this , as it is causing a lot of confusion,,, and i can not live with the face that Contributor users can access and modify site settings. the other approach will be is that i will stop using web parts. but one of our main reasons
    we decide to use SharePoint is the ability to add web parts, especially the Visio & Excel web access web. thanks in advance for any advice ..

    I have a Win7Pro SP1 PC locked down with a Group Policy as it is a public facing PC. PDF fillable forms cannot be completed when logged on as the restricted user. The forms work as a normal user. What are the user requirements/permissions needed to fill forms?

    Well, try this (I was able to fix my with these steps):
    Go Utilities > Disk Utility
    Select your Startup Disk, e.g. Macintosh HD
    Then, under the First Aid Tab, click Verify Disk Permissions.
    If there are errors, then click repair Disk Permissions.
    After it is done, restart the computer and see if your problem is resolved.
    I hope this help.

  • Disco 4i Error 'This user requires Create Any Materialized View Sys Priv'

    Hi,
    Firstly I will say we are late with moving to Disco 10g, fully understood and constantly remind people of need to upgrade.
    Oracle Apps 11i instance, we have upgraded the database 10g.
    In Disco 4i Admin, Import folder from Database, we receive Error Message:
    *'This user requires Create Any Materialized View System Priviledge'*
    Have spoken to number of our DBA's but been unable to resolve this. I have read loads of stuff about similar issues, but no direct hits really help me.
    I am guessing we need to logon as SYSTEM db user and execute
    h5. SQL> grant create materialized view to <username>;
    h5. SQL> grant alter any materialized view to <username>;
    Please can anyone advise, I am sure it's going to be a DB/Schema owner, as the username; i.e. APPS or EUL_US?
    I cannot see it being the fnd_user for the Disco EUL owner, e.g. SYSADMIN or PatStock.
    Thanks
    Mike

    Hi,
    If you are doing the import as SYSADMIN then you are connected as APPS so this is the database user that needs additional privilege.
    However, the APPS user only needs create materialized view privileges if there are manually created summary folders in the EUL, i.e. summary folders based on materialized views. If you are not using these then the privilege is not required.
    The EUL_US user just needs to give Discoverer Administrator privileges to the SYS_ADMIN user. Nothing else should be needed.

  • Workgroup Manager: Adv, User Password Type grayed out (was Shadow Password)

    I've set Workgroup Manager, Advanced, User Password Type: Shadow Password, Options to inactive after 90 days, fail after 5 attempts, allow user to change password, at least 8 characters every 90 days. Today after user logged in to the console, the user locked herself out remotely via sftp, ssh, & xterm from a WinXP PC running ReflectionX.
    I went to the console, used Fast User Switching to bring up my admin account (her account was still logged in), we reset the password with Workgroup Manager so the red X is no longer on her username.
    However, the Advanced User Password Type: drop down list is blank and grayed out and she can't log in? How do I reset this? The user has a lot of files, I'm afraid to delete and recreate the user account. That seems pretty drastic for an invalid password attempt. I've rebooted and ran Apple Updates for good measure. Any ideas how to put Shadow Password back in that box?

    To unlock the user's account, after backing everything up and noting the user's uid, home dir, groups, etc, we deleted the user in WorkGroup Manager and readded her putting the user id, home dir, etc back the way it was. Everything seems to work again. The home directory files were not deleted when the user account was deleted so everything just reattached.
    Still have no idea how we managed to get things so confused in the first place? The Server UI is so much more complicated and inconsistent from the client OS for dealing with users. The Mac OS X Server for Dummies book I found did not have a troubleshooting section and was no help in resolving this. We ended up contacting the Mac User's Group.
    I was blown away to get an email survey from Apple support asking me to rate my opinion of my help request. I didn't get any help! They told me my 3 years of AppleCare don't apply to the Server OS I installed separately after buying the mac. Mac OS X Server has 90 days of support that I never used but had expired. They offered to sell me a help ticket for $99.
    This has not lived up to the user experience I was hoping to have. I regret the day we "upgraded" to the server. Is there a way to downgrade? Now that there is only 1 unlimited version, we're totally stuck. We have no mac client connected, just PCs via sftp, ssh, vnc, & X windows...

  • UME Actions - Manage All User Passwords

    Hello everyone,
    I am trying to create a role for our service desk to be able to manager users and be able to unlock them and/or reset their passwords. So I created a role with the identity management iview and gave the role the assigned action "Manage_All_User_Passwords". On <a href="http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04s/helpdata/en/5f/670db7939b8e48999d65f8a05ad611/frameset.htm">sap help</a> it says of this action:
    "Provides permissions required by a user to change the password of other users independent of company. This also enables the user to view all user profiles."
    Now the problem comes in with users in different companies. Any user I assign this role to is only able to search for users in their own company. Is there some other configuration I need to do or permissions I need to change to be able to manage the passwords of users in different companies?
    We are running NW04s SPS10
    Thanks for any help,
    Chris Bahr

    Yonko,
    The role's assigned to my test user are all user created. There are no other assigned actions that would interfere. I have not assigned the delegated user admin role as this would give more power to the user than we want. What we are going for is a role for our support people to be able to unlock and reset people's passwords. So we just want them to be able to be able to unlock and reset the passwords of all users in all companies, which I assumed manage all user passwords would do, but I am obviously missing something.
    Best Regards,
    Chris

  • Initiall SharePoint Server 2013 setup -- unable to manage new User Profile Service Application

    During initial farm setup, creating an initial User Profile Service Application works fine.  However, once it's created, I cannot 'manage' it through the Manage Service Applications page in central
    admin.
    I get a generic error (Sorry, something went wrong / unexpected error) with a correlation ID that doesn't seem to match any ULS log entries. (Yes, I merged logs from all machines in the farm.)
    A Windows event log entry says:
    A failure was reported when trying to invoke a service application: Endpoint Failure
    Also frequent errors in ULS logs:  (see below)
    UserProfileApplicationNotAvailableException     
    User Profile Application      Proxy failed to retrieve partitions from User Profile Application: Micro…
    SPDistributedCache DataCacheException
    I did notice that the file 'ProfileService.svc does not exist in SharePoint's web services app at the URL you see in the error. (below)
    I also found it interesting that the event log error shows 1 active endpoint and 3 failed endpoints.  I have 2 WFEs and 2 app servers.  But I'm only trying to get the user profile service app running on the application
    servers.  I have deleted and recreated this service app several times under various names (deleted/recreated its app pool as well) and wonder if these other failed endpoints could be orphans from previous instances...
    Any thoughts on how I might successfully create this service application?  I've already been Binging my head against a wall long enough that I would have been better off reinstalling the entire farm...  I may still
    do that.
    FYI, my farm came from a slipstreamed SP1 install package, and received the July CU after several other things were already configured, including the already-failed UP service application.

    Thanks for the suggestion.  I performed the service restarts, and then an iisreset an the two web servers, and the application server that does not run the services.  Finally, I ran iisreset on the application server that does run the services.
    After performing those steps, I still cannot manage the user profile service application.
    ULS log at the time of the attempt contains User Profile Application Proxy errors (in my original post) and am also noticing the following error:

  • How can I Manage Multiple Users?

    My wife and I both want to organize and edit our digital photos with PSE10.  Up until now, I have managed all of our photos by myself, and I have synchronized all data on both of our computers (and backed up all of our data to an external harddrive).  Now that my wife also wants to organize and edit our photos on her computer, I am finding it difficult to synchronize the PSE Catalogs and photos on our two computers.  So, I am looking for a better procedure. 
    Should I (and can I) keep my PSE Catalog & Photos on: 
    (1) an External Harddrive (which would be connected to only one computer at a time, while that computer user is organizing and editing photos), or 
    (2) on a Home Network location where both users could access the photos for organizing and editing (with a "lockout" for photos which are being edited by the other computer user)? 
    Are there other good or better procedures for managing multiple users of PSE? 
    My computer is running Win7 Home Premium 64-bit. 
    My wife's computer is running Windows Vista Home Premium 32-bit.

    Thank all of you for your replies. 
    Re SOFTWARE CHOICES:
    I decided that my wife and I will each use different software on our different computers.
    I decided NOT to upgrade my wife's software from "Windows Live Photo Gallery" (WLPG) to "Adobe Photoshop Elements 10" (PSE).  After a detailed discussion of my wife's wishes, I discovered that she only wants to (1) move our pictures into folders, (2) cull the pix, and (3) create "Album" folders (with only our most memorable pix) to be printed as 8.5" x 11" pages for the Albums.  She wants me to crop, edit, add captions, and print the Album pages.  See the image at the bottom for our current Photo Mgmt Plan.
    I will continue to use "Lightroom" (Lr).
    Re SYCHRONIZATION: 
    I decided that we both can use the same picture files.  I use "GoodSync" to sychronize files between my computer and my wife's computer (and between my computer and my backup HDD). 
    My wife's "WLPG" does NOT appear to use a database.  My changes (including "Keyword" edits or adds) show up in her "WLPG" program, when picture files have been changed by myself in "Lr" and sychronized with her computer.
    After my wife adds folders and/or changes the folder contents, I sync her computer with mine.  I open her folders (which are now also on my computer) in "Lr", and "Import" any of her new and duplicate pictures into "Lr".  Surpisingly and thankfully, the pictures that have been moved to a new folder by my wife do NOT show up in "Lr" in the previous folder (i.e. I do NOT have to find and delete any "Missing" images which were in the previous folder location).
    Re MULTIPLE USERS OF A DATABASE:
    I do not need to use this now, but I read that "Lr" is designed to work with the "Lr" database (and pictures) on an external HDD.
    Thank all of you again for your very helpful replies.

  • Is there a way to get a user login record after sleep?

    I know that by opening terminal and typing in "last" (without the quote marks) that it will give me about a 3 week record of who has logged on my computer after shutdowns and restarts.
    What I want to know is this:
    a) Is there a way to get a user login record after the computer only goes to sleep?
    b) is there a way to get the terminal to go back further than just 3 weeks or so for the shutdown/restart records?
    Is there software that might do this???
    Thanks in advance, this is important for me.

    Thanks, Dave: so this is what I type in the terminal? "ls -l /var/log/wtmp*" (without the quotes). And how do you unzip something that has been "gzipped"?
    "man gzip" will give you the details for using gzip
    My first question can be explained this way: To get into the computer when it is coming out of sleep you need to type in a password, then it opens to the desktop. Is there a way I can find out the times over the course of a day/week/month that this is being done? i.e., is there a log being made somewhere of when the computer is being opened and signed onto after being asleep?
    When you wake the computer from a sleep, you are not logging in again so there will be
    no record of the event as a "login"
    My computer possibly could be used by a few other people that have access to my computer password (don't ask why) and I basically want to know if they are signing on when I am away from my desk.
    You may want to look at /var/log/asl.log or /var/log/secure.log which contain details of
    authentication attempts (which is what you are doing) and failures.
    I am not asking why you have multiple people accessing your computer with your password --
    but consider setting up separate username, it is a lot easier to manage and you will probably
    not be asking questions like this one.
