Unable to remove Collaboration room member

We are unable to successfully remove a user from the members tab of "Room Maintenance" from Collaboration Rooms. After removing the user from the list, we receive the following error: "Properties could not be saved".
How can we resolve this issue? Any input would be appreciated.
Thank you,
Laura Sturdivant

We had the same problem. At us we are synchronizing users with Microsoft AD. The user had to be deleted from the rooms before they where deleted AD - otherwise we got the problem.
If this is the your situation, add the user to AD again and then delete the user from the collaboration room - and AD.

How to restrict the news creations for members of the collaboration room

Hi all,
I have created a Project Room in collaboration and assigned members to that
room.I need to restrict the room members from creating the news and folders.
And also only Owner/Admin of the room should be able created the news and
folders and members should be able view the news and folder
One more query,i need to remove the room parts which are by default selected
for that room when select the default templates.
Can anyone please give me the solution on the above queries.
It will be very much helpful for me to create collaboration rooms with the
restricted permissions.
Thanks in advance.

Hi Sascha,
    Here I am explaining what is my requirement.
    I have created collaboration room and added room admin and members to the
    room.
    Then in the room maintaince -> I have added the room parts as
     News(private) and the role I have assigned to member.
     When login into portal with the member login and go to the news in the
      collaboration room, member is getting the permissions to add/create news.
      At this point I want to restrict the members of the collaboration room to view
      the news and only admin of the room should be able to post the news.
      how to go ahead for the above senario.
Thanks

Collaboration Room Team Member list

Hello all,
I'm working on creating a custom collaboration room template in KM 5.0, EP 5.0, SP 5.0. The templates that come with KM include an iview (Team Members) that lets you view team members that are a part of the collaboration room that you are in. It does not appear that this iview tells you who in that list is currently online or offline, however, this would be a great feature to have. Is there any way to get this iview to do that, or is there any other business package that might have an iview that includes this functionality?
Thank you,

Hi Edwin,
set the PCD permissions of com.sap.ip.collaboration (or something like this) for the group "Everyone" to allow End User permissions.
You have to check "End User" for the group Everyone.

A user can only see the public area in a collaboration room

Hi all,
We have experienced that a certain user can only see the public area of
a collaboration room although the user has member rights to see more
content.
We have tried to remove the user from the room and add him again. It
did not help.
Other users have been added before and after this user without problems.
What could be wrong with this user?
Regards,
Ashwin

Hi Ashwin,
Check the roles and the groups by this user.. Is the same of the others users?

Help: Collaboration Room Bugs/Issues

Hi,
I have created my own collaboration room template by duplicating the standard Information Site template.
However, i am facing a few issues related to collaboration room creation, which might be standard features/bugs in collaboration room.
1. When i create a new Room, all the users of that room (members as well as administrators) get full access to room documents, headers, news, Faqs etc.
The permissions started working fine when i changed permissions in KM Content --> Room_Extensions.
All the existing rooms showed the correct permissions.
However, whenever i create a new room, every user gets full permissions to all the parts of the room.
This is despite the fact that i have removed all the users from full permissions to the room_extensions folder in KM and reset the child permissions.
2. I have attached the iView com.sap.ip.collaboration/TemplateContent/Homer/iViews/ com.sap.netweaver.coll.RoomMemberList (Team Members iView)to my room template.
When i create a new room based on my template, i do not get the users specific to a particular room.
What i get in the Team members list is all the users listed in the Contacts list in Collaboration Launch Pad.
3. When i try to preview some of the iViews stored in com.sap.ip.collaboration/TemplateContent/Homer, i get an exception. On attaching these iViews to the Collaboration Rooms, i get a message stating "Invalid Item ID" index.xml.
I get the same message even after attaching these iViews to a collaboration room template and creating a room based on the template.
Any help regarding these issues would be highly appreciated. Full points for helping me with these issues.
Regards,
Vibhu

Hi Vibhu,
here my comments:
1) These are the standard settings (every room member gets full access) for the permissions of KM content created during a Room creation. Since KM can't distinguish between the room roles, we can't set 'better/stronger' permissions. You can only set manually permissions on concrete users.
2) It seems that you have not set the mappings for this iView. For the RoomMemberList you need the following settings:
StartURI        room_rootrolegroup_rid
path            room_rootrolegroup_rid
roomrid         roomid
in the documentation you find more mappings for iViews delivered by SAP, which You have to set in the templates.
Please see http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/3f/fcfe06fd7f1321e10000000a114cbd/content.htm for more information.
3) That's possible since some of the iViews needs certain iView-Parameters set to work properly. Please check if this iView needs some mappings under the link in the documentation under 2)
4) Up to now we are treating groups as you described. We are working on a solution where we work with groups as room members and we don't resolve the members of the invited/added group.

Remove Collaboration DTN option

We are unable to configure the calendar repository manager at this time due to concerns with the Lotus Notes file that must be loaded onto the Lotus Notes server.
Because of this I would like to remove the Calendar and Sessions option from the Colloboration Detailed Navigation of the Collaboration Room. I would also like to remove the Meeting option from the Colloboration Detailed Navigation of the Meeting Room.
Can someone please point me in the right direction for modifing the Colloboration Detailed Navigation options?

HI
If you want to remove the calendar for example,
Go to
Content Administration, Portal Content,
Content Provided by SAP, End User COntent, Standar POrtal Users, Pages
Open The overview page
pcd:portal_content/com.sap.pct/every_user/general/pages/com.sap.km.pages/com.sap.km.Overview
you can remove the Calendar iView.
The collaboration, my session is in
Content Provided by SAP, Collaboration
look for the Collaboration rol and remove the options you don't want.
These are standard objects so if you apply a SP your changes will be lost, so, make delta links or copies and work with them.
Hope this helps

Unable to remove Workforce Planning formulae in Planning 9.3.1.1.16

Hi All,
We are on using Planning 9.3.1.1.16 and are unable to remove member formulae from Planning.
Our Planning application is EPMA (9.3.1.3) enabled. When refreshing the Planning application we receive the following error:
Error [1200497] detected in member formula for member "Regular Headcount".
Error [1200497] detected in member formula for member "Departed Headcount".
Error [1200497] detected in member formula for member "LOA Headcount".
Error [1200497] detected in member formula for member "Maternity Headcount".
Error [1200497] detected in member formula for member "On Sabbatical Headcount".
Error [1200497] detected in member formula for member "Contractor Headcount".
Error [1200497] detected in member formula for member "Temporary Headcount".
Error [1200497] detected in member formula for member "Other Headcount".
Error [1200497] detected in member formula for member "Turnover Headcount Adjustment".
Error [1200497] detected in member formula for member "Regular FTE".
Error [1200497] detected in member formula for member "Contractor FTE".
Error [1200497] detected in member formula for member "Temporary FTE".
Error [1200497] detected in member formula for member "Other FTE".
Error [1200497] detected in member formula for member "Turnover Adjustment".
STEPS TO REPRODUCE :
-In EPMA Master Library, remove the formulae for the above members and save the changes every time
- In Planning remove the member formulae for the above members (EDIT_DIM_ENABLED set to TRUE). This step may not be required however I tested it and was able to reproduce the issue
- Deploy the EPMA applicatoin. Deployment is successful
- Refresh Planning app. Refresh is successful
- Now change any property for any of the above members in EPMA. For example add an alias of Turnover Adj to the "Turnover Adjustment" member and save.
- Deploy the EPMA app => Successful
- Refresh Planning app=> Fails with same above error
Observation: The member formulae are back in Planning not EPMA. It looks like edit workforce members somehow causes the formulae to reappear in Planning.
Has anyone come across this issue?
Thanks for your help.
Seb

Just in case anyone has a similar issue...
Thsi was reported as bug #7411035 (ie: Character Limit for Member Formulas ). Details from Oracle Dev below:
The character limit was 2000 causing longer member formulas to fail during an application deployment. An underlying bug was found during investigation of the member formula limit and we think this is the cause of your particular issue. The problem was with empty member formula string. During the deployment process there are EAS side checks. EAS will only accept a member formula if it contains at least one character(length > 0), else the formula
field is rejected in the deployment XML file.
The script below copy the member formula to a different table and then delete the original. So it is quite a destructive query to run.
Prior to executing the query, a full EPMA/Planning applications backup should be performed (including essbase side) and the EPMA Dimension Server services (particularly the Process Manager) should be stopped.

"404 Error - The requested resource does not exist" found in portal for Collaboration room

Hi Experts,
I am trying to resolve this issue since a week but not able to solve it, so i need your help.
The Problem is when i assign a collaboration room to a user, the room is assigned but when the user clicks on the room link it gives the "404 Error - The requested resource doesn't exist". But if a new room is created and give access to the user, the user is able to open the new room through the link and view the documents.
The Unique thing about the error is, it doesn't occur for every user it happens with few users, since I am the super_admin I am able to view all the rooms without getting such "404 error" even for once.
I have tried by setting up all the permissions to the room and also assigning Everyone role to the rooms, still the problem persists.
I am unable to find a solution for this, so need your help.
Eagerly waiting for your helpful replies.
Thanks in advance.
Thanks & Regards,
Shumana.

Hi
Try with following link (VC should be in Caps) -
http://localhost:50400/VC/default.jsp
Also check whether you have proper admin roles assigned to your user id.

Some questions on Collaboration rooms

HI,
In some of the room templates I found an extension BANNER. But how do I configure a Banner for my room I couldnt find.
I want to add a quick poll to my room template which I developed. How do I go about this.
The Search Room functionality: DOes this require TREX set up and if so what do I need to index for it to work.
Now in a collaboration room if i have a documents page which is a navigation page, the end user gets access to Move, Copy, Delete etc etc on the resources. How do I remove such links?
If I need to create any other such iView like a BI iView in my room template, how do I go about this?
Points assured for a Detailed Answer.

thanks vijayakumar kanniah mohan
The room part works once I already have 2-3 created rooms.
Suppose I wish to add a quickpoll to the tenmplate will it reflect fo all the rooms which have been priorly created using this template.
In such a scenario, what can I do?
e.g. My template is MYTEMPLATE out of which I create ROOM 1 and ROOM 2. I can go and add room parts to those 2 rooms. But what if I want to just edit the room template and say add the quick poll to an existing page there. How do I get it reflected in ROOM 1,2.
Also I didnt quite get the answer to the Banner question.
I have the folowing Extensions in the room tempalte:
Banner
cmRoomExtensionSP2FP
ON_CREATE_ROOM
ON_DELETE_ROOM
Contacts
cmRoomExtensionSP2FP
ON_CREATE_ROOM
ON_DELETE_ROOM
Documents of a Department
cmRoomExtensionSP2FP
ON_CREATE_ROOM
ON_DELETE_ROOM
Documents
cmRoomExtensionSP2FP
ON_CREATE_ROOM
ON_DELETE_ROOM
Downloads
cmRoomExtensionSP2FP
ON_CREATE_ROOM
ON_DELETE_ROOM
Events
cmRoomExtensionSP2FP
ON_CREATE_ROOM
ON_DELETE_ROOM
InternalDocuments
cmRoomExtensionSP2FP
ON_CREATE_ROOM
ON_DELETE_ROOM
Links
cmRoomExtensionSP2FP
ON_CREATE_ROOM
ON_DELETE_ROOM
News
cmRoomExtensionSP2FP
ON_CREATE_ROOM
ON_DELETE_ROOM
But how do I put an image as the banner and where.
Thanks agian and waiting in anticipation for your reply.

Room Member getting runtime Exception.

I create a room based on Team Room Template and add a member (say m1). m1 is then assigned the eu_role so the user can have the Home > Work entry to the room.
Then m1 logs in, Goes to Home > Work, Selects the assigned room in the drop down.
The page refreshed and the user gets a runtime error (pl. see below for exception details)for "My Rooms" and "Related Rooms" iviews.
BUT, when I go back and give m1 the super_admin role, everything works fine.
Has anyone faced this issue?
Can anyone help me resolve it?
Best Regards,

Hi Sunil,
first, welcome on SDN!
Within the PCD, set give the group "Everyone" administrative read permission as well as EndUser permissions on the branch pcd:portal_content/com.sap.ip.collaboration/Rooms (Open - Permissions).
One of these two settings probably will be sufficient, just play around.
Hope it helps

Collaboration Room Error

Hi
I have installed EP6 SP9 NW04 SR1 , I have installed
KMC SP9 and have patched it to KMCSP9_P3
When i create a room, and then go into the room..i get this error on the "My Rooms" and "Related Rooms" iViews in the detail Navigation. The errors:
Portal Runtime Error
<b>An exception occurred while processing a request for :
iView : pcd:portal_content/com.sap.ip.collaboration/Rooms/504a0f4d-e8df-2710-27a1-ca086fd31920/workset/com.sap.netweaver.coll.TeamRoomOverview/RoomQuickLaunch
Component Name : null
Page could not create the iView.</b>
How can i solve this problem WITHOUT upgrading to a later stack..since there is no time for an update??
If i cannot solve it..how can i remove those two iviews from Collaboration->My Rooms->detail navigation??
Please help urgently
Any help is very much appreciated
Thanx
RD

Hi RD,
SAP Note 792370 should hopefully solve your problem here:
The group EVERYONE needs execution permission for the folder in which the room worksets are stored.
In the PCD, navigate to Portal Content / com.sap.ip.collaboration / Rooms. Edit the "Assigned Permissions" and flag the checkbox in the column "End User" for the row "Everyone". Now the rooms will work as supposed.
Hope this helps,
Robert

Role in Collaboration Room

Hi
I have duplicated the Collaboration Room Template "SAP_Information_Site" and created a new CR based on the duplicated template. Three roles are defined in that template: admin, content manager, public
I assigned my own admin-user the admin-role in this CR.
But every other user entering this room has automatically been assigned to the "content manager"-role, although he should be assigned to the "public"-role! I always delete the user from the Member-list in the Administration of this CR. But everytime the user enters the room, he´s assigned to the content manager-role again!!!!
Can anybody help me?
We´re on SAP EP 6.0 SP 13
Thanks
Sven
Message was edited by: Sven Keller

Hi Vasu
Sorry, but that url doesn´t help. I know the procedure of assigning PORTAL (!!!) roles. The problem is, that within the collaboration room the ROOM (!!!) role "content manager" is assigned
autmatically to EVERY user entering the room. I can´t control that.
Normally every user should have the room role "Public"!

Sven
