Updating a shared report?

In Discoverer Desktop, is there a way for a user who is NOT the owner of a shared report to modify it and save the updated version over the original? I have a group of users who want to all be able to access and update a single report, but it's cumbersome for them to repeatedly save off their own copy, update it, share it back, and keep track of who has the most up-to-date version. All my Googling indicates the only workaround to this is to let them all log in as a single user, which is a violation of our security policy. Is there a better way to do this?

We created a department username.  The only thing this username can do in Oracle is change the password.  In discoverer, we can all access the same reports and update.  There is no security issue, for all that can be done is retrieve data.

    Someone out here must have an answer????   I know that SharePoint 2013 saves the view created in Power View therefore the metadata must be accessible somehow?  Can someone explain
    how to find that metadata in the SQL tables maybe?  I would be surprised to find out I am the only one who needs this?

  • Developer role able to edit a shared report that he did not create

    Hi,
    It seems like user with "BI Publisher Developer" role is able to edit a report
    in shared folder that he has access to.
    Question: How can I create a user who can develop/create/edit his own reports,
    and have view only access to some shared reports and
    have edit access to some other shared reports?
    i.e I want a scenario where there are 2 folders in Shared folder say FolderA and FolderB.
    I want to create a user who is a developer such that he can create reports under My Folder
    for his personal use and also be able to create/edit reports under Shared/FolderA,
    but have only view-only access to Shared/FolderB
    Thanks

  • Error while viewing the shared report

    Hi
    After sharing a worksheet to another user and try to view the report from the other user, it displays the following error:
    " A measure is missing or is invalid.
    This worksheet may not display data correctly. Please edit this worksheet using OracleBI Discoverer Plus for OLAP to correct the problem. "
    whereas when i log in as the person who created the worksheet, im able to view the report perfectly..
    I tried to save the worksheet's dimension and shared that one too..
    but cud'nt see the shared report.
    The error occurs only when the other user tries to view the shared report and the same report work fines when the owner of the report views it.
    Please help us out on this issue.
    Thanks
    S. Kokila

    Hi,
    Have you made sure that the user you're trying to view the report as has select access on the underlying AW?
    You can grant select on the underlying AW by logging in as it's owner and then:
    grant select on AW$<awname>
    where <awname> is the name of your AW.
    Hope this helps.

  • How often does the Apple TV sync with updated home sharing playlists?

    I am trying to use several Apple TV's at my business for content management throughout our campus.  I want to be able to have a playlist of pictures and videos that is easy to update.  Can anyone tell me how often the Apple TV syncs with the home sharing network for an updated playlist?  It would be very inconvenient if the only way was to do a reboot on every device each time content was updated.

    Welcome to the Apple community.
    I can't really say for sure how often the Apple TV updates its shared libraries.
    I do however know that once the Apple TV as completed playing something, it will sync with the shared library in order to update the play count. So I'd be reasonably sure that the shared library is updated at least once every time something is played.

  • Qty  not updated in MMBE report

    Dear Experts,
    We have define one material (project material) type defined as Qty update and Value update, when i pass the MIGO value is updating but the qty is not updated in MMBE report, where as qty is showing in MB51.
    why the qty is not updated in MMBE for this particular material type?
    i am FI/CO consultant.

    Hi,
    This depends on the selection criteria on the initial screen of MMBE t-code, make sure your entries are right.
    Secondly, ensure special stock indicator is checked. Check the movement type...you will need to scoll to the left on the overview screen, in case you have posted the material to the blocked stock.

  • Treasury deals without bank details not updated in CM report

    Hi all,
    when creating a deal in Transaction Manager via trans. code FTR_CREATE without Bank details the respective cash flows data are not transferred to Cash Management report FF70 due to some reason. please note, that planning level Bank unknown (Derived from Table T036V ) is specified per every financial instrument in question in Customizing ( TRM -> Transaction manager -> General settings -> Link to Cash Management -> Assign Planning Levels ).
    In this case I would expect an entry to appear in the Cash Management report FF70, in a respective Grouping and on earlier mentioned Planning Level Bank unknown  on the respective payment dates. However I cannot find those entries there.
    On the other hand update of CM report FF70 works fine when bank details are specified in the tab Payment details on a deal level.
    appreciate your suggestions/ solutions for this issue.
    BR,
    Renatas

    Hi Renatas,
    Yes, I believe so. As per my understanding, all transactions can be shown either under a bank or a customer in a CM report. (Keeping aside Vendors as we are not considering them at the moment).
    In your case, since you don't specify the bank details, the transaction is bound to appear under Customer.
    Until the transaction is posted, it will appear in the Customer row with planning level which you have maintained for Bank Unknown case. And after posting, it will move to planning group (thus level) which you have maintained in the customer master.
    The above explaination is solely based on my experience of testing various scenarios. You may try it in your development box before confirming.
    Hope it resolves your issue.
    Thanks and regards,
    Abhinav

  • DML(Update)  in a report

    I have a report, with a query that includes a ROWNUM,
    How can I do UPDATE of the table of the query with the printed rownum?
    For example, query report is:
    SELECT rownum, a.* from mytable a order by ......;
    I have to UPDATE one of column, say x of my mytable.
    UPDATE mytable Set x = rownum WHERE id_mytable = y;
    where (y is column of table mytable printed too)
    Thanks in advance for any help

    I forgot
    I could implement something like
    -- start report
    --check report progress
    LOOP
    l_report_status:= report_object_status(l_job_id);
    exit when (l_report_status not in('ENQUEUED', 'OPENING_REPORT', 'RUNNING'));
    END LOOP;
    -- report ended (with/without errors)
    IF (l_report_status='FINISHED')
    THEN
    -- Report run was successful: update database
    ELSE
    -- Report generation errors
    END IF;
    but how can i get back rownum printed?
    and If it were possible, I would not like to create a TEMP table.
    Thanks again

  • Update records in Reports

    Hi!
    Can I update records in Reports at the same time that Im printing theirs ?
    If It is posible, where ?
    Thanks in advance

    Actually that isn't true - you don't need to do an srw.do_sql().
    You can insert/update records anywhere that you can write PL/SQL (global report triggers, formula columns, format triggers, etc.). In your case I'd recommend using a formula column (since this is guaranteed to fire once per group record).
    Hope this helps,

  • I have tried to update and it reports a security and stability update is available but says I do not have permission. I do not know what to do

    Okay, I hit "help" and then updates which it reports there is one but I do not have permission to install it. I am at a loss as what to do

    If you have problems with updating or with the permissions then easiest is to download the full version and trash the currently installed version to do a clean install of the new version.
    Download a new copy of the Firefox program and save the DMG file to the desktop
    * Firefox 6.0.x: http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all.html
    * Trash the current Firefox application to do a clean (re-)install
    * Install the new version that you have downloaded
    Your profile data is stored elsewhere in the Firefox Profile Folder, so you won't lose your bookmarks and other personal data.

  • After latest update, screen sharing broken

    Installed the iPhoto, Supplemental 10.7.3 update, and, iTUnes update on March 10. Since then, screen sharing to a headless Mac no longer works properly.
    What happens is it runs, but, screens no longer update properly. For example, you can't scroll in Safari, UNLESS you resize the Safari window, it's really strange. Video doesn't play, it freezes, again, unless you resize the video player window.
    This has happened on all 3 macs that were updated. All 3 are headless, no display attached. One is a OSX Server.
    Anyone else with the latest updates screen sharing a headless Mac with this issue?

  • Clients receiving updates but not reporting

    Hi All,
    I'm having an issue where all Windows 8.1 clients are downloading updates just not reporting back into my console. This seems to be happening since I upgraded to Windows Server 2012R2 (from 2008R2) and created a new WSUS implementation.
    The Windows Update Fix-It does fix the issue but this is happening on 50+ pcs and I really need to be able to silently deploy a fix to them.  I'd also like to know what caused it so it doesn't happen again. I do have 1 or 2 Windows 7 machines this
    happens on, but 99% is on Windows 8.1. I've tried manually fixing based on the Fix-It findings but nothing I have done so far has worked.
    Does anyone have any ideas where I should start?
    Here are the Fix-It Issues Found:
    1. Service Registration is missing or corrupt.
           Reset service registration
    2. Windows Update erroe 0x8007000D (2015-04-20-T-09_02_15A)
           Resetting Windows Update data store
    3. Problem installing recent updates
           Repair Windows Update
    I believe #3 is caused because I use WPP to publish Adobe Flash Player. I do not have my 400+ PCs segregated by OS, rather by departments. So Win 8 machines get Adobe Flash Player WPP updates and constantly fail. I have thought this might be an issue.

    Thank you, this does seem to be one of the issues with my sysprep'd machines. I am a quite confused as to why the SUSid is not being reset upon sysprep. When I build these images they are not on the WSUS either.
    I am also not in a domain environment. I am running a script which manually sets the following,
    [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\WindowsUpdate]
    "WUServer"="http://x.x.x.x:8530"
    "WUStatusServer"="http://x.x.x.x:8530"
    "AcceptTrustedPublisherCerts"=dword:00000001
    [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\WindowsUpdate\AU]
    "AUOptions"=dword:00000004
    "DetectionFrequency"=dword:00000004
    "DetectionFrequencyEnabled"=dword:00000001
    "NoAutoRebootWithLoggedOnUsers"=dword:00000001
    "NoAutoUpdate"=dword:00000000
    "RebootRelaunchTimeout"=dword:000000f0
    "RebootRelaunchTimeoutEnabled"=dword:00000001

    "ScheduledInstallDay"=dword:00000000
    "ScheduledInstallTime"=dword:0000000b
    "UseWuserver"=dword:00000001
    "AutoInstallMinorUpdates"=dword:00000001
    Tech support also said that I should be enabling ,
    Computer Config > Admin Templates > Windows Components > Windows Updates
    1. Configure Automatic Updates (enabled and set to 3)
    2. Specify intranet Microsoft Update Service Location (set to enabled and my WSUS IP)
    3. Automatic Update detection frequency (enabled)
    Resetting the susid seems to work for some clients and then the GP edit seems to work for others.
    I do have to remove the client from the WSUS console before resetting the susid or it will not work.
    Now I am concerned I have something wrong with my sysprep'd images. However, even some out of the box from a store machines are not reporting. It's perplexing.

  • Slow update of shared variables on RT (cRIO) after building exe

    Hi,
    I've been struggling with this for the past few days.  I am having a problem with slow updating of shared variables on my RT project....but only after building the application into exe's.
    The application consists of an RT target (cRIO 9073) sampling inputs at a rate of 1sec.  I have a host PC running the front panel that updates with the new acquired values from the cRIO.  These values are communicated via shared variables.
    Once the cRIO samples the inputs, it writes the values to the shared variables, and then flags the data as 'ready to be read' using a boolean shared variable flag.  The hostPC polls this boolean shared variable and updates the indicators on the front panel accordingly.  
    Now, this worked fine during development, but as soon as I built the RT exe and host exe's, it stopped working properly and the shared variables ended up being updated very slowly, roughly 2-3sec update time.
    To give you some more background:
    I am running the Labview 2010 v10.0.
    I am deploying the shared variable library on the RT device (as the system must work even without the hostPC).  I have checked that its deploying using Distributed System Manager, as well as deploying it into the support directory on the cRIO and not the exe itself. 
    I have also disabled all firewalls and my antivirus, plus made sure that the IP's and subnets are correct and its DNS Server address is set to 0.0.0.0.
    There are 25 shared variables all in all, but over half of those are config values only used once or twice at startup.  Some are arrays, plus I dont have any buffering and none of them are configured as RT FIFO's either.
    The available memory on the cRIO is about 15MB minimum.
    What strikes me is that it works fine before building exe's and its not like the cRIO code is processor intensive, its idleing 95% of the time.

    Thats exactly what I'm saying, it takes 2-3seconds to update the values.
    I have tried taking out the polling on the PC side, and registered an event on the changing of that shared variable and that doesn't do anything to change the slow update time.  Even if I stop the PC, and just monitor the shared variables in DSM it updates slowly.
    I also tried utilising the "flush shared variables" vi to try to force the update....that does nothing.
    I wire all the error nodes religously. Still no luck.
    Its very strange, I'm not too sure whats happening here.  These things should be able to update in 10ms.
