Warning before viewing an old version

hi gurus,
is there a SAP standard method / customizing setting which creates a warning message when a user wants to view a old version of a document (something like "warning document not valid any more")? (It should work with easy DMS)

No, no method currently which is standard. The only solution is to use a SU (Superseded) status when a new version is released. You would need ABAP to ensure the old version is automatically set to SU on release of a new version and this should work in EasyDMS as well. From there its a simple case of restricting access to all SU documents or only leaving a PDF behind with a big "SUPERSEDED" watermark across the page that people can't miss.
You can issue warning messages in the Gui but they are not carried through to EasyDMS from what I remember.

  • I get a warning about using an old version even after installing v24.

    Several websites (including Mozilla) give me a warning about using an old version. I'm currently on v24 and when I take the advice to upgrade it simply re-installs v24 again but the out of date message doesn't go away!

    Philipp,
    Sorry, should have read the ENTIRE message you sent. Problem solved - thank you so much. Have a great day.

  • Ipad opening old versions even though deleted - can't view new versions!

    I am designing and creating iBooks and need to show them to my editor to before they are finished - I export them, upload to drop box and she downloads them onto her iPad 3 Version 6.0.
    When I make the necessary changes, i duplicate the file, rename it, and re upload to dropbox. ie 'Joe Blogs 2', that way I have many versions to refer back to if necessary, and i label each one on the cover to save confusion.
    Since the new update for iBooks Author we have had some pretty big problems, I have edited, exported and uploaded the books as usual, my Editor has downloaded them onto her ipad, but every time we tap on the new title to open the book 'Joe Blogs 2' it opens an old version 'Joe Blogs 1', even if the old one is deleted from the ipad, also, even if we upload a completely different book it still opens 'Joe Blogs 1' I have changed the titles, and file names and it has made no difference.  we are both using iBook latest update.
    NOTE: All books were created from an original template created in iBooks Author version 1, from the 'Basic' template. I have been using this template because I don't know how to recreate it - the are no chapters it starts with 1 page then has sections so that it ends up with a table of contents which looks like this, which means that the 'chapter' (section) title can be tapped and go straight to the section, which is something I would lose if I started the books from scratch (which I obviously don't want to do)

    Thank you for replying, and for the tips on templates, that makes a lot of sense - i have now created a template from the original book, and saved it as a template (I cannot make the template from scratch as I do not know how, as I explained, to make a contens page that functions like the one in the picture)
    Unfortunately, this has not solved the other problem
    Just to check we are on the same page (no pun intended) what I have been doing is this;
    • To start a new book: opening 'contents page', a template i have created (and saved as a template, so I get it from the welcome screen on IBA 2, as opposed to opening an existing file and duplicating it.) use that template to create a new IBA file, ie 'Maslen and Mehra 1' which I save, export as 'version 1' when prompted on IBA v2. then I add this to drop box.
    after my editor has downloaded and seen it, I make changes, then duplicate and save as ''Maslen and Mehra 2' to show to her again. then I make make changes, duplicate, save, make changes, duplicate, save... up until 'Maslen and Mehra Final Proof (9)'  
    since the new IBA update every time she tries to open a new file, the last one I sent her before the update opens (which is really old now as we have made a lot of changes, on our current book we are on version11 but version 3 opens!. Thinking that my template might be the problem I did the following:
    • started from scratch: chose an bulit-in IBA template, put a 'A' on the cover, saved it as 'A', exported it, added it to drop box. my editor downloaded and opened it fine.
    • changed the 'A' to a 'B' on the front cover (did not duplicate the file)  exported it, I changed it to 'version 2' when prompted, saved the .Ibooks file as 'B' and uploaded it to drop box. My editor dowloaded it fine, and it appears in the library but When my editor opens it 'A' opens instead. 
    • Started again (with a completely different built in IBA template) repeated the process, new book 'A' again worked fine, but this did not change to 'version 2'. same problem. new book 'B' opened as new book 'A' again.
    • Started again (again with a completely different built in IBA template) this time duplicated 'A', named it 'C', saved, exported 'C' and 'A' still opened even though 'A' is a different file!
    • tried changing the meta-data file title, repeated the process, made no difference.
    • tried different drop box account, didn't make a difference
    • she tried restoring her ipad, still made no difference
    • my editor cannot view IBA files (only .ibooks) so we cannot get around it that way...
    so my current issues:
    • My editor and I need to find a way we I can create a book, send her a copy and make changes, and send her a new copy, whether by duplicating it or even by re-exporting the original document (and saving a copy as a spare) - but neither currently work - why is this so difficult? this was not a problem before the update, she could have multiple books with similar filenames, all orginating from the same file. (which I now know is not the correct way, but even using templates has not made a difference)
    • regarding templates: have I missed somewhere that you can make a template from scratch? I thought the closest you could get was to choose an existing template, delete everything then 'add section/chapter' if I go to 'New' in ibooks author then it still just takes me to the template page so I have no choice but to choose one of the IBA templates or one of the ones I have created myself, given the choice I would always rather start from scratch and a blank page anyway! :-)
    Thankyou again

  • Although I have the latest version of Firefox installed, I'm constantly getting the warning message that I AM USING THE OLD VERSION; what could be the issue here?

    I usually upgrade Firefox within a couple of days when the new version is issued. Nevertheless, I can't seem to get it right. Although when I check "About Firefox" tab in the Help menu it says that my version is 9.0.1 (i.e. the latest version available) - still on the Firefox Update page I always get this annoying msg:
    "''Hey there! Looks like you’re using an old version of Firefox.
    Don’t miss out on the latest technology & security features.
    Get the free upgrade in less than a minute.''" And, I see that your "educated guess" about my browser recognises it as a 3.5.5 version (far being it from the truth!).
    I don't believe that the fact that I'm still using Windows XP should have anything to do with this problem, but fyi - my OS is Win XP SP3, regularly updated and upgraded.
    Also, even though I live in Croatia, I prefer my Firefox (and other programs) in English, so I use UK version of Firefox.
    I do have some problems updating MS .Net Framework - could this be the issue with Firefox too?
    Anyway, I've already tried uninstalling and reinstalling Firefox, even tried installing Croatian version - nothing helped.
    As a result of this, I also have a problem with Gmail - I can only use standard, basic HTML view. Also annoying as hell.
    Btw, as for "Installed plugins" - I'm not sure which of those are right, but I do not have Netscape installed, and never had one on this computer. I even ran the search for term "Netscape" and it came out empty.
    There, I think I've provided as much information as I could think of - so, please help me to sort this out - if you can.
    Thanks

  • Viewing old version Keynote file on iPhone?

    Can iPhone view Keynote files generated by old version of Keynote?
    I have Keynote v. 2.0.2. I emailed the files (including a one-page file to test) to myself using gmail but they were all unreadable. Using FileMagnet resulted in the same results.
    Thanks for any suggestion.

    Do you have another email account on your iPhone you can try? Just in case the Gmail server is somehow affecting the attached file.
    I know the iPhone will read files created with iWork '08.

  • Simply put, I do not like like the new color coding "dots" and I do not like having to press the Command key before double clicking to open files in a new window. How hard would have been to include the old version of these two features?

  • I Need Help for the popup message every time I go to safari: "Warning! Old version of Adobe Flash Player detected. Please download new version."???

    I Need Help for the popup message every time I go to safari: "Warning! Old version of Adobe Flash Player detected. Please download new version."???

    If you are talking about Safari on the iPad, there is no version of Adobe Flash for iOS and there never has been. Clear Safari, close the app and reset the iPad.
    Go to Settings>Safari>Clear History and Website Data
    In order to close apps, you have to drag the app up from the multitasking display. Double tap the home button and you will see apps lined up going left to right across the screen. Swipe to get to the app that you want to close and then swipe "up" on the app preview thumbnail to close it.
    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 if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.
    If you are talking about Safari on your Mac, you are in the wrong forum. But I would still clear the cache, quit Safari and restart the Mac.

  • HT202879 How can I open a file made with old version of Pages (before 09)?

    I need to open a file made with old version of Pages (before 09).  How can I do this?  I only have iworks Pages free with Mac Book Pro.

    You need either Pages '09 or the original Pages '08? programs.
    With Pages '09 you simply open it and it accurate converts it to Pages '09. Pages 5 will open the Pages '09 version but may alter/damage the file.
    With Pages '08 you Export it to Word .doc/.docx with mixed results, then open that in Pages 5 which may alter/damage the file.

  • Dreamweaver 2014.1 Live view is showing old version of file

    I'm running Window 7 (64-bit) and upgraded from Dreamweaver CC 2014 to 2014.1 a couple days ago.  Since I'm using fluid grid design view is not available, so when I view my files in Live view Dreamweaver (DW) is showing very old versions when I edit some files (not all).  When I use split view the code is correct, but it doesn't correspond at all to what I'm seeing in Live View. The code window shows the current version of the file and the live view window shows an old version. Any idea?  Also, live view in this new version seems to be extremely slow.
    Another question is, how can I re-install the old version (CC 2014)?  I tried to uninstall and re-install, but the install automatically installs 2014.1 and doesn't give an option. Thus far, I am very unhappy with what I've seen so far in 2014.1 and would really like to back off 2014 to speed things up.
    Thanks much

    Hi Preran.
    I seam to have the same problem on a Mac. Also Live view keeps crashing and linked to Adobe BC.
    If the live view crashes then the live view is showing an older version on the CSS file until I do a refresh. Its been driving me Nuts!
    Also the CSS file is no longer automatically uploading to Adobe CC...
    So I really could do with a solution for me to run on CC 2014.0 Please.
    I am a subscriber to CC.
    Cheers Jake

  • When I am using Facebook, all of a sudden with Firefox 4, everything is SO slow. This has happened before. I want the old version back.

    Ever since I switched to Firefox 4, everything is slowing down! I hate this version. I want the old version back. I went to Facebook, it took so long to be able to do anything that I just gave up. This NEVER happened with the old version. I just want to get the old version back. I DO NOT LIKE this new version. Same kinds of problems I had once before when I tried it.

  • Before downloading the latest version of I-Tunes, I used to be able to view the ALBUM ARTWORK at bottom left when clicking on a song.   I am now unable to see the artwork.   Is it no longer possible with the updated software ??

    before downloading the latest version of I-Tunes, I used to be able to view the ALBUM ARTWORK at bottom left when clicking on a song.
    I am now unable to see the artwork.
    Is it no longer possible with the updated software ??

    Correct, Apple have removed that feature. However, you can still see the artwork of the song that's playing; it's shown in the Now Playing indicator at the top of the iTunes window. It is small, but if you click on it, a larger version pops up.
    Also, in Albums View, you can see the album artwork.

  • Should you remove old versions (CS5) before you install creative cloud?

    Should you remove old versions before you install creative cloud?  Right now I have CS4 and CS5 on my system.  Iwould like to remove them before I move forward.

    Rod as Badavaraj indicated there is no requirements to keep the older versions installed.  If you have particular compatiblity needs with plug-ins or working collaboratively with other Adobe users using those versions however you may want to keep the older software titles installed.
