Digital Signature in SAP DMS

Hello,
We want to implement digital signatures in SAP DMS, but we're not sure on how to accomplish it. We have the following scenario:
1. All the users have a digital certificate which is part of the Portuguese ID card;
2. Currently we're all using this certificate to digitally sign e-mails (they use their laptops integrated card reader), for example;
3. We also want to use this certificate to sign DMS documents.
Do you think the above mentioned scenario is possible without licensing additional software? If so, can you guide me through the customization steps?
Thanks in advance.
Kind regards,
Ricardo

Hi Ricardo,
It is quite possible to achieve your requirements using the digital signature strategy available in SAP DMS. I have previoulsy answered the steps involved [here|Digital Signature on Original File; and you may additionally look up [Wiki|http://wiki.sdn.sap.com/wiki/display/PLM/Digitalsignaturein+DMS] and [SAP Help|http://help.sap.com/saphelp_470/helpdata/en/9f/857f3a1c7b11d294d200a0c92f024a/frameset.htm] as well.
In your case,more specifically,you need to adopt the signature method during customization as 'User signature with external security product with/without verification' for which your I-Card reader would also be required.

How can I use a 3rd party XML parser such as xerces with OC4J ?

Hi all tech experts,
I am using Oracle Application Server 10g Release 2 (10.1.2) and i have
installed Portal and Wireless and OracleAS Infrastructure on the same
computer.
i tried all the solutions on this thread
Use of Xerces Parser in out application with Oracle App Server 9.0.4
but still fighting.
I have also posted this query on OTN on following thread
How can I use a 3rd party XML parser such as xerces with OC4J?
but no reply....
Please help me on this issue.
Since OC4J is preconfigured to use the Oracle XML parser which is xmlparserv2.jar.
i have read the following article which states that
OC4J is preconfigured to use the Oracle XML parser. The Oracle XML parser is fully JAXP 1.1 compatible and will serve the needs of applications which require JAXP functionality. This approach does not require the download, installation, and configuration of additional XML parsers.
The Oracle XML parser (xmlparserv2.jar) is configured to load as a system level library of OC4J through it's inclusion as an entry in the Class-Path entry of the oc4j.jar Manifest.mf file. This results in the Oracle XML parser being used for all common deployment and packaging situations. You are not permitted to modify the Manifest.mf file of oc4j.jar.
It must be noted that configuring OC4J to run with any additional XML parser or JDBC library is not a supported configuration. We do know customers who have managed to successfully replace the system level XML parser and the Oracle JDBC drivers that ship with the product, but we do not support this type of configuration due to the possibility of unexpected system behavior and system errors that might occur from replacing the tested and certified libraries.
If you absolutely must use an additional XML parser such as xerces, then you have to start OC4J such that the xerces.jar file is loaded at a level above the OC4J system classpath. This can be accomplished using the -Xbootclasspath flag of the JRE.
i have also run the following command
java -Xbootclasspath/a:d:\xerces\xerces.jar -jar oc4j.jar
but no success.
How could i utilize my jar's like xerces.jar and xalan.jar for parsing instead of OC4J in-built parser ?
All reply will be highly appreciated.
Thnx in advance to all.

Hi Neeraj Sidhaye,
I am trying to deploy a sample xform application to the Oracle Application Server (10.1.3). However, I encountered the class loader issue that is similar to your stuation. I tried all the three solutions but the application is still use the Oracle xml paser class. I am wondering if you have any insight about this?
Thanks for your help.

How to use a 3rd party source control tool with RoboHelp?

Hello,
I would like to set our RoboHelp users up with source control. They are using RoboHelp HTML 8.0.
Our software developers are using the AccuRev scm system; I'd like the doc team to use AccuRev, too.
Can someone direct me to RoboHelp documentation that explains how to set up and use a 3rd party scm system with RoboHelp?
Thank you,
Marilyn

It appears that RoboHelp 7 only sees the first SCC provider listed in the Windows Registry and ignores the rest. I was able to get RoboHelp to display the File | Version Control menu for SourceGear Vault by setting the following two Registry keys and removing keys for other SCC providers (SourceSafe, Surround SCM, and others I am evaluating).
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\SourceCodeControlProvider
     ProviderRegKey = \Software\SourceGear\Vault Client
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\SourceCodeControlProvider\InstalledSCCProviders
     SourceGear Vault VS2003 Compatible Client = SOFTWARE\SourceGear\Vault Client
If I create a new RoboHelp project, save it, then select File | Version Control | Add to Version Control, RoboHelp does the following:
     - pops up the Select Version Control Provider dialog and displays SourceGear Vault Classic Client.
     - I select that, check "Make this my default selection" checkbox, and click OK.
     - RoboHelp crashes.
I'm using SourceGear Vault 5.02 under Windows 7 Ultimate 32-bit. A search of the SourceGear Vault knowledge base reveals that they do not support RoboHelp because of its incorrect behavior and instability. It's so sad that RoboHelp can't work properly with industry standard SCC providers. Vault is by far the best SourceSafe replacement out there, and very affordable.

Can't sign in using any 3rd party email client with my iCloud account on any Mac. Tried every settings, My iCloud only works with Mail.app

Can't sign in using any 3rd party email client with my iCloud account on any Mac or any other Mac. My iCloud will only work with Mail.app. All the clients I tried work perfectly well as long as I sign in with somebody else's iCloud account. But mine won't work no matter the client (Postbox, Unibox, Airmail...) and no matter the computer.
I can access my account on iCloud.com, but I can't use email clients without getting error messages prompting me to check my password or login.
I was able to use those clients in the past but a couple of months ago I got logged out of Airmail and the issue started just like that!
I tried every possible mail server settings including the following:
IMAP information for the incoming mail server
Server name: imap.mail.me.com
SSL Required: Yes
If you receive errors when using SSL, try using TLS instead.
Port: 993
Username: The name part of your iCloud email address (for example, emilyparker, not [email protected])
Password: Your iCloud password
SMTP information for the outgoing mail server
Server name: smtp.mail.me.com
SSL Required: Yes
If you receive errors when using SSL, try using TLS instead.
Port: 587
SMTP Authentication Required: Yes
Username: Your full iCloud email address (for example, [email protected], not emilyparker)
Password: Your iCloud password

Those are the correct settings, and they work with any email client that supports Imap.
Try again.

Digital Signature for SAP Script

Hi ABAP Gurus!
Is it possible to implement the Digital signature in SAP Script.
If the printer has properties to print Signatures.
Any one implement succesfully digital signature in SAP Script.
Your suggestion and guildlines will be apprecaited.
Thanks!

Hi Reddy,
What I did was a image signature. Scan the signature into a image file, upload it to system via transaction code SE78.
Call the image to be printed on your form with the below code
BITMAP 'ZMY_SIGNATURE' OBJECT GRAPHICS ID BMAP TYPE BMON
Is this applicable to you?

I used a 3rd party to move thunderbird files but can't remember what it was called

I used a 3rd party program to move my thunderbird files a few years ago but can't remember what it was. It worked very well and would like to use again. I think it was mozip or something like that.

There is an add-on to TB which allows import and export of emails in various formats to a separate storage medium (external disk, thumb drive, etc.).
The instructions on how to download and install it can be found at http://barryduggan.info/exportMail.php

Thanks.

The directory/path is the path to the root folder and, in most cases, should be left blank...

Issues with Form printing using a 3rd party software!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!11

Hi All,
We are printing our month end AR statements using Xerox DP100 printers. We are using a SAP Script as the layout form. Everything works perfectly alright when a direct print is issued to the printer. But the scenario here is the statements are sent to a 3rd party software so that the statements can be saved in their repository and made available to be viewed and printed whenever necessary. Now the issue is when this 3rd Party Software(TPS) reads the SAP generated PCL from its report store on the unix host and generates a PDF File that it presents to the web client user for (re)printing via his/her PC it appears that the TPS or Websphere or Adobe is performing a font substituion - replacing the Univers font(used in R/3) which is not loaded on the unix host with a different font(with different sizing and/or behavior).
As a result the horizontal and vertical positioning generated by SAP(which is correct for the Univers font) is 'wrong' for the substituted font. The fixed size fields print OK but gradually move to the right. The varying size amount columns do not align correctly and fall off the right side of the page.
Can anyone give me pointers on what can be done to arrest this error.
Does the font need to be loaded on the unix host or the font used in the form be changed?
Regards,
Karthik

Karthik,
Sap script behaves differently for different printers. You will have to change margins when you change your printer/software accordingly.

Digital signatures in SAP

Any idea whether electronic signatures are supported in SAP and if yes what types of signature, what standards are used, whether they are legally accepted and whether it is part of the package or a separate application.
whether the processes can support multiple signatures at multiple stages, signifying different levels of approval? how electronic signatures are recorded and retained and how the process or document remains fixed once signed. Any inputs on this would be helpful

Hi,
yes digital signatures are possible.You can search SDn for a lot of options.One such is:

Digital signature in SAP Records Management (SAP Netweaver Folders Manager)

Hi experts,
I have a record with various documents and I want to implement digital signature in documents (Transaction: ORGANIZER). I read in IPS640 SAP Manual that there are a button (key symbol) to do this but I don't have this button. Can you explain me how to implement this?
A lot of thanks in advance.
Regards,

Hi JV,
You need to define the repository in OAC0 transaction. As per my analysis now your document are stored in sap database.
If you are using separate serever then confuigure as follows in OAC0:
Document area : SAP Records Management
Storgae type : RFC Archive
define IP address and port. Then goto CSADMIN and activate the certificate for the same.
or if using SAP Database then make the changes in above areas.
Then these archived documents will get saved in content server instead of sap database.
Hope this will help.

Ravindra

What is the name of the group in AD (provide the DN) that you want to map the j2ee logical role WEBTA_J2EE_USER? What are the group search base and group mapping attribute?
When wmgraham logs into the app, the 3rd party ldap login module will attempt to query for the groups wmgraham is a member of - this is done using the group search base configuration for the provider.
In this example, the DN is "cn=wmgraham,ou=endusers,ou=itod,ou=endusers,ou=div20,ou=hq,dc=fbinet,dc=fbi" and likely user search base is set to "ou=endusers,ou=itod,ou=endusers,ou=div20,ou=hq,dc=fbinet,dc=fbi".
Assuming group search base is (say) "ou=groups,ou=itod,ou=endusers,ou=div20,ou=hq,dc=fbinet,dc=fbi" and and group mapping attr is "cn", then the role mapping you mention should work for group DN "cn=webta,ou=groups,ou=itod,ou=endusers,ou=div20,ou=hq,dc=fbinet,dc=fbi"
