User login details - to b captured in Planning Logs

Hi
In Planning v11.1.2.2 can we capture the users who are logining to our application in any log?
Thanks
Sethu

Hi, unfortunately no. It was discussed many times
Re: How to view which users have logged into Hyperion Planning
Re: How to track user logins by day
audit user activity
etc
I've read somewhere about the idea for workaround. Simple form opens automatically just after user logon. It has some run on load BR that you can track in logs

User login details

dear All,
i want to check my store-4 users login details in sap, from last years, can you please help me to resolve the same.
regards,
jitendra.

hi jitendra,
You can use the User Information System (T-code SUIM) to obtain an overview of the authorizations and users in your SAP system
at any time using search criteria that you define. In particular, you can display lists of users to whom authorizations classified as
critical are assigned.
Thanks & Regards

Group Policy to clear down MRU lists and to clear or to prevent user login details for programs such as Remote Desktop from being recorded

Hi there,
Please can anyone instruct me on how to set up Group Policy to clear down MRU lists and to clear or to prevent user login details for programs such as Remote Desktop from being recorded. Your help would be much appreciated.
Kind regards,
RocknRollTim
P.S. I was redirected by a forum user off the Microsoft Community forum.

Hi RocknRollTim,
Agree with Jason. Using a script will be a better option.
Just addition, for history of RDP Connections, please open Registry Editor and follow the path:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Terminal Server Client\Default. Please check if find MRU registry items where the name (or the IP address) of the terminal server is kept in.
Please also follow the path: HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Terminal Server Client\Servers. It contains
the list of all RDC (remote desktop client) connections that have ever been established from this computer.
When expand Server folder and select a node, you will see the UsernameHint key that show the name of the user connected by rdp.
Please back up registry items to avoid unexpected issues before any operation.
If any update, please feel free to let us know.
Hope this helps.
Best regards,
Justin Gu
Thank you for responding back Justin Gu and I agree with both you and Jason Miller that a script can easily achieve this task. Thank you all for your help.
Many thanks,

Hi Pradeep,
Try using the following URL to the Admin Service:
http://<Server:Port>/XMII/Illuminator?service=Admin&Mode=modelist
You can then try the different modes such as:
http://<Server:Port>/XMII/Illuminator?service=Admin&Mode=SessionList
This may have the information you are looking for, assuming you have the right permission to access the AdminService.

Please any one found SAP standard report or custom report or any tables if get data .pls help me.
Regards,
Mahesh

Hi Sudhakar,
Fogot to wish you...Welcome to SDN.
Here is a sample code to get details of the transports of a user with a given date.
REPORT z2 NO STANDARD PAGE HEADING.
tables: e070.
data: it_e070 like e070 occurs 0 with header line.
data: lin type i.
parameter: p_user like E070-AS4USER.
select-options: p_date for E070-AS4DATE.
start-of-selection.
select * from e070 into table it_e070 where AS4USER eq p_user and AS4DATE in p_date.
check not it_e070[] is initial.
describe table it_e070 lines lin.
sort it_e070.
loop at it_e070.
write: / it_e070.
new-line.
endloop.
skip.
write:/ 'Total hits:', lin.
Run this program as it is to have a better idea and then you can club it with the logic to get the login details of the user.

To display the user login details in selection-screen( input screen )

HI Experts,
I have a requirement.
Assume there is a report on travel details. Report access has been given to all in the organization based on authorization level.
Before excecuting the report, in the selection-screen(input screen) itself I need to display the login user details.
suppose user A belongs to ITS-business unit and user B-belongs to RDS-business unit and Industry group-Multi markets.
so when User B logs into production system and try to access the report, in the selection screen, i need to display like
user-id-- XXXX          Business Unit---RDS             and IG -
Multi Markets
how to achieve this? User details will vary based on login.
Regards,
Praveen

User login with details

hi guys,
was need to come out a report for the user login details. which has to have the date and time of the user login to SAP, with the terminal ID access from and transaction has done. can any one tell me what table it is from? or is there existing report that i can view all this? thanks

hi,
you can find the transactions by a particular user from the transaction SM04.
SM04 gives you the details of the users logged in,terminals,transactions the user is working on, the time he has logged in,no of sessions user has opened, and the memory used by the user's programs... all of that w.r.t to the client we login. but we can't get info like date and number of times the user has logged in.
U can see tables:
USR01 User master record (runtime data)
USR02 Logon data
USR03 User address data
USR05 User Master Parameter ID
USR12 User master authorization values
You can also use transaction code ST03N.
1. Go to tx code - ST03N
2. Under "Workload" you can select your "Instance or Total" so that it expands and shows you Days, Week, Month.
3. If you want to look at the transactions executed for a particular day, lets say, then double click on any day.
4. At the bottom left you get "Analysis Views"
5. Select & expand "User and Settlement Statistics"
6. Double click on "User Profile"
7. On the right side of the window you get a list of all the users
8. Double click on a particular user you want to view the details of.
9. The new screen will display the "Transactions/Reports Utilized by User XXX"
If you want to track which users executed a particular transacation then follow this:
10. In "Analysis Views" expand "Transaction Profile"
11. Double click on "Standard"
You can view the list of Transactions and Reports.
12. Double click on the Tx Code or Report you wanna check and it will show the Use of it.
hope this is helpful

Need to Apex App user login last login details

Hi All.
how will get the Apex App user login details ? is it have any table or please suggest me on this...

Not sure what is your exact requirement, but did you look at "Monitor Activity" under "Administration" (you should be an Administrator to the workspace)?

Failed to sync with user provisioning. Check Planning log for details

hey everyone,
we just did a password update for our hyperion planning application owner account. and now when i try to login to hyperion planning, i get the following error message:
Failed to sync with user provisioning. Check Planning log for details.
I can still login to shared services and workspace with the same application owner account.
i also tested and verified that I can login to Essbase via Excel using this application owner acct. after i changed the password, i have stop and restarted the weblogic web services after I updated the password.
because i kept getting the error, i have reverted back the password to the original one... but i am still getting the same error message.
btw, we are using a solaris server running WebLogic9, Hyperion System 9. any help or tips would be appreciated.. thx.

Hi,
Have you updated the datasources for each of the planning applications, you will need to update the password and probably recycle planning app server.
Cheers

How to find the last login details of a Sharepoint SSRS user

How to /where to find the last login details of SSRS sharepoint user. Is there any table where we can check the last login details of user. This is because we are facing an issue of Subscription failure due to Sharepoint token expiration. If user logs in
before 24 hours of his last login time, he is able to get his report subscription. If not, below error is thrown.
The permission granted to user 'domainname\username' are insufficient to perform this operation.

Hi,
According to your post, my understanding is that you want to monitor the last login user’s details.
There is no out of the box way to achieve it in SharePoint.
We can use cookie to be a flag for checking whether there is an user just log in. After the page loaded, if the cookie is null, it suggests that there is an user just log in our site, then we
can get this user’s information using JavaScript Object Model and add the information into a custom list. With this list, we can monitor user’s login details.

Last Login details of the user

Hi Everyone,
Is there any transaction code to find out last login details and the screens accessed by the user other than SM04, SUIM, RSUSR200,
Rgds,
Sailatha,

Hi,
Some of the server programs ( ZLayouts, report programs that are in production ) have been modified by user DDIC, when checked the layout attributes, the date & time are shown as today, not able to figure out the transactions accessed by the user as SUIM is not showing the login details correctly, how do we find out the screens, programs accessed by the particular user?,
Rgds,

Notification message box of Hyperion Planning when user login

Can we have a notification message box popup when user login Hyperion Planning or Workspace application? We would like to communicate to the end users by the system instead of just email because some end users may not check the email so frequently. It is the best to notify end users about any latest changes e.g. budget rate, etc when they login the system to check data or print reports.
We noticed that there is a broadcast message feature but only limit to those users already online. And the message will not shown when there are some users login later. We would like to have some notice board like message instead of instant messaging.
The online help of "broadcast message" feature:
"Use broadcast messaging to communicate a text message to all Planning users currently logged on to an application. For example, you can send messages about system availability or periodic maintenance. You should also send broadcast messages to request that users log out before upgrading or migrating applications.
You can send broadcast messages using the Web client or a command line utility. If you send them using the Web, they are sent to users of your current application. If you send them using the command line, you can specify any application, without being logged on to it. You can also schedule messages using standard operating system mechanisms. "
Thanks in advance!

I have tried the above step and it only works when i am in the advanced mode. but when i change to basic mode i can see the forms and still can access without any disturbance. for your help i am pasting the planningcentral.jsp so that you could suggest me something other.
Thanks in advance...

Capturing User login Id

I have an application and I can't figure out how to capture the users login name in order to restrict what information is returned to them. The database login is done through the Connection Manager. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Sorry I'm using JSP but i've seen in the connection manager doc that there's a way to define a custom login box, from connectionmanager.chm in docs:
Using the setDefaultPrompter method, users are able to customize not only the UI used by default to prompt for connection information, but also whether, by default, to prompt for information at all. The getConnection methods also allow for customization of prompting behavior. Examples of these can be found below

Info of Last login details of Users

Hi
I want to information of last login details of users using MAXL cmd....
is there any such cmd in Maxl which will give out put of users last login..... if so can u any one help me in this
Thanks
SSS

This is just one of several areas where MaxL fails to live up to its potential to completely replace Esscmd. Development of MaxL seems to have essentially stagnated after the inclusion of MDX. We still run a handful of Esscmd scripts (such as GetUserInfo so we too can get last login) simply because MaxL does NOT have a substitute for everything Esscmd offers.
The prevailing response I always see is "well, gee, you can always write a Java API program to do ...." which is a fine response for a developer, but kind of weak for those whose primary responsibility is database administration with the occasional script thrown in for good measure. The complexity of System 9 and later releases is now making it virtually mandatory to learn and use Java to accomplish anything. Perhaps I am just pining for the good old days, but making simple things harder than they were before strikes me as a step backwards.
Oh well, enough ranting. Time to make the cubes sing once more.
