Users not given option to "Use my Microsoft Windows user ID"

Hi guys.
Anyone seen this before?
When our users connect to BPC, either through IE or straight from Excel, they get the following:
The first time they connect in any session (after a reboot, logon, etc.) they are offered both options to sign in...
"Use my Microsoft Windows user ID and password"
and
"Use a different user ID and password"
This is as intended
However, on any subsequent login requests (changing Apps, AppSets, closing and re-opening Excel, etc.), they are ONLY given the "Use a different user ID and password" option.
Whilst this might seem a minor issue, the number of times that users are having to re-enter their password in a day is getting on people's nerves and we're hearing a lot about it.
Has anyone come across anything similar before, and if so, how (if at all) did you resolve it?
This has been a problem in v7.5 SP4 for a while and is still a problem after an upgrade to 7.5 SP6
Thanks

Hi Art.
That was gthe first thing I checked.
However, we have resolved it.  Strangely, we had to set SOX compliance to ON and then back to OFF.
This seems to have done the trick.
Thanks for the suggestion though.

  • "Use my Microsoft Windows user ID and password" is grayed out

    Hello Experts,
    I've disabled "SOX Auditing" option in Server Manager in BPC 5.1 SP03, but "Use my Microsoft Windows user ID and password" is still grayed out. The only option I unlocked is saving password.
    How do I enable Windows Authentication in BPC?
    Thanks in advance,
    Akim

    Enabling/Disabling SOX Compliance does not take effect until the 2nd time you go through the Connection Wizard.
    Your problem could also be within Internet Explorer.
    Go to:
    1.  Internet Explorer>Tools>Internet Options>Security Tab
    2.  Click on Local Intranet zone>Custom Level
    3.  Scroll down to User Authentication>Logon.  Ensure that Automatic Logon with Current UN and PW is checked.
    4.  Do the same for the Internet zone.
    Try on multiple machines.
    Also on the client machine, look at the value for BASICAUTHENTICATION in:
    hkeycurrentuser>software>vb and vba program settings>outlooksoft 5>latest

  • Not given option to preserve users and network settings

    I have a Quicksilver with Leopard installed. I've learned that normally you can't install Leopard on this computer because the processor (733 mhz) is too slow. It works, but I've found that it does indeed run poorly.(The hard drive was transferred from another computer, with Leopard already installed.)
    So now I want to install Tiger on it, but when I get to the options installation window and click on the 'Archive and Install' button, the option to also 'preserve users and network settings' remains grayed out. I can't select it. Why so? I want to preserve the settings when I install Tiger.

    because tiger installer doesn't know how to deal with leopard files as leopard was released after Tiger. downgraded like this is not recommended by apple.
    I want to preserve the settings when I install Tiger.
    you can't. however, if you do an archive and install without preserving user settings, your leopard home directory will be preserved in the Previous Systems folder at the top level of the hard drive. after you are done with the install of Tiger you can move what you need to your new home directory. move data files ONLY. don't move any preference files. they most likely won't work.
    A better option would be to back up your data to an external and do an erase and install of tiger. you should make a backup anyway in case something goes wrong with the install.

  • I want to Hide Back option but Not Save option when using transaction iview

    Hi,
    Sap Guru's
    I am new in Sap EP.... I am using Transaction iviews in the portal....  I want to Hide Back option but not the Save Option of transactions....I want to hide it from  potal ...... Is it Possible.....
    I have done settings in  SICF Tcode in ECC system as Following:
    ~Webgui = 1
    ~Webgui_simple_toolbar = 160, 2, 4, 16, 32, 64 and some more values... It is hiding the Back option but also the Save Option....
    I also want to disable commands as Ctlr  + S , shift + F3
    Suggest me some solution so that this can be done from portal instead of ECC systems.....
    Thank's in Advance
    Regards-
    Sumeet Sharma

    Hai,
      Kalyan,
    I have done this problem using SICF but instead of Hiding Back option .. I have allowed a user to run only one transaction using an iview....
    Put following parameter in SICF:
    ~webgui = 1
    ~theme = Sl
    ~SINGLETRANSACTION = 1
    By this configuration user will be able to execute only one transaction i.e  assigned him in his transaction iview.... It's an alternate solution of hiding back......
    when user click front screen back option of an transaction iview he will get message ... Logged off....
    Regards-

  • TS3274 I purchesed a new Ipad Air on the 23rd Jan, I have been travelling so not given it much use compared wit the old one but I noticed the battery was running down even though it was in sleep mode. Lat night it was on 58% charge, this morning i had a l

    I have a new Ipad Air and have noticed everytime I open the screen the charge has reduced. over night it dropped from 58% to below 10 with a low battery warning.
    The screen was asleep, cellular switched off, Bluetooth on for the keyboard. all setting infact the same as my last model which performed excellently.
    Anyone know why its losing its charge so quickly. it also sems very slow to recharge also, in one hr its gained a 12% charge.

    Try this first - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.)
    The quickest way (and really the only way) to charge your iPad is with the included 10W or 12W (5W on Mini) USB Power Adapter. iPad will also charge, although more slowly, when attached to a computer with a high-power USB port (many recent Mac computers) or with an iPhone Power Adapter (5W). When attached to a computer via a standard USB port (2.5W, most PCs or older Mac computers) iPad will charge very slowly (but iPad indicates not charging). Make sure your computer is on while charging iPad via USB. If iPad is connected to a computer that’s turned off or is in sleep or standby mode, the iPad battery will continue to drain.
    Apple recommends that once a month you let the iPad fully discharge & then recharge to 100%.
    How to Calibrate Your Mac, iPhone, or iPad Battery

    At this link http://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/galaxy-tab-android-tablet,3014-11.html , tests show that the iPad 2 battery (25 watt-hours) will charge to 90% in 3 hours 1 minute. It will charge to 100% in 4 hours 2 minutes. The new iPad has a larger capacity battery (42 watt-hours), so using the 10W charger will obviously take longer. If you are using your iPad while charging, it will take even longer. It's best to turn your new iPad OFF and charge over night.

  • Why do i not get option to use idvd option from my imovie

    Hi there
    I have recently bought a 15in macbook pro and wish to create a dvd from iMovie. But when i click the Share button I do not see the option to choose iDVD. Could someone please shed some light on this . Thanks.

    Welcome to Apple Support Communities
    iDVD and iWeb are no longer included in new computers because they aren't supported. If you want iDVD, you have to buy iLife '09 or '11 from eBay or Amazon and install it on your computer. After doing it, open  > Software Update, and install the latest iDVD

  • Do not get option to use swipe gestures with Remote app

    I am using Remote version 3.0.1 and with previous remote versions when I opened the app on my phone I would get the option to access my library or to just use swipe gestures to control the apple tv - now I don't, it goes straight to my library when opening the app.  What if I want to watch netflix or something other than playing stuff in my library?  How do I get this functionality back? On the screen shots for the app in AppStore it has a shots of the swipe screen with "Tap to Select or Swipe to Navigate" so it must still be in this version?
    Please help
    Ben

    On the bottom of the app there are different options (Playlists, Artists, Control, Search, More). Choose control and it will bring you to that screen. If you can't get there maybe it isn't detecting your Apple TV.
