What is the best UI for running reports?

Based on my experience,  am I correct in assuming the Silverlight UI is still the only one supported for running reports?
Running reports in the html5 UI is not a comparable experience at all.... yet .
Which UI do you use for your implementation?

I agree 100%... HTML5 UI for Reports is very clunky, slower and not intuitive when Silverlight's is much better.
We actually use the Excel Add-In a lot now, we just build the report's shell in C4C quickly and then do our View/Selection customization in Excel. We find it quite fast and everyone knows how to play with Excel reports quickly.
Since 1402 I believe, the user-experience in the iPad app SAP Customer Insight is also much better with the introduction of dashboards in HTML5 though.

  • What's the best Mac for running Final Cut Pro X?

    Title says it all. What's the best Mac for running Final Cut Pro X? I'm not looking to make a feature length hollywood film. But I'd like to be able to edit video without lag.

    Yes. Begin with the fastest processor / graphics card / and as much RAM as you can afford. (As all three will become obsolete over time.)
    I started from scratch. I have a 27-inch iMac with a 3.4 G Intel Core i7. (currently the fastest processor for an iMac) I also ordered the best graphics card--AMD Ratheon HD. I ordered 16G of RAM, but recently added more RAM to equal 24G. (OWC makes good after-market RAM for iMACs.)
    Last, I ordered a flash drive / SATA hard drive combo.  (250G on flash / ITB on SATA). The OS and all of my applications run off the flash drive. (for fast start up!)
    I put all of my media and FCP projects onto the SATA hard drive.
    Now, I had the option to order a 2TB SATA. But, I realized I can always buy more external storage as I edit more and more projects. ALSO! FCPX is GREAT when it comes to editing projects on external drives! I can segregate an entire project and its media files onto a removeable drive. I simply launch FCPX, plug in the drive and--poof!--I'm ready to edit. It sees the project and the media right away. When I'm done editing, I can then send this drive to another editor (also using FCPX) or attach it to my MacBook if I want to edit the same project in the field.
    This has worked for me. I wish you luck.

  • What are the best practices for audit report for SharePoint 2013 farm ?

    Hello,
    I am looking for the best practices for audit reporting in SharePoint 2013 farm.Can anyone please provide me checklist/tools/guidelines on same ?
    your help will be much appreciated.
    Thanks and Regards,
    Dipti Chhatrapati

    This is quite open ended question. A sharepoint farm should be well maintained as per :
    1. Microsoft's recommendations on : Topology, Hardware and Software requirements, Operational procedures and most important Capacity guidelines:
    http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ff758645(v=office.15).aspx
    http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc262787(v=office.15).aspx
    2. Organisation's IT policies and procedures : Farm Configuration, Workload and monitoring
    http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ff758658(v=office.15).aspx
    http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ee748651(v=office.15).aspx
    3. Industry best practices
    I would suggest to start thinking over these lines and create a plan for your Sharepoint farm.
    You can then create powershell scripts to run these reports at certain frequency to find the changes, any deviation from the standard and health of the entire farm.
    Hope this helps!!

  • What is the best solution for running windows based programs

    I have one program that I need windows for.  What is the best solution for doing this without painfully slowing down my mac.

    Depends on your needs.
    BootCamp requires reboot and uses all physical resources of the system.  Only OSX *or* Windows can run.  Better for gaming or memory intensive tasks.  BootCampAssistant must set up the boot sector to make it work.  Also BCA required to remove it.
    VM (virtual machine) like Parallels which "hosts" Windows while still running OSX.  You split RAM between the two environments.  VM is just another program so no special boot sector changes needed, but not good for graphics or RAM intensive programs.
    Other recommended alternates to Parallels (paid) are VM Fusion (paid) and VirtualBox (free download from Oracle.com).

  • What is the best practice for running a long report/query against an active database?

    We are using SQL Server 2012 EE but currently do not have the option to run queries on a R/O mirror though that is my long term goal. I am concerned I may still run into the below issue in that scenario as well since the mirror would also be updating data I
    am querying.
    I have a view that joins across several tables from two databases and is used by an invoicing program on existing data. Three of these tables are also actively updated by ongoing transactions. Running a report that used this view did not use to be a problem
    but now our database is getting larger and we have run into some timeout problems for the live transactions coming in.
    First the report query was timing out so I set command timeout to 0 and reran the query which pegged all 4 CPUs 100% for 90 minutes and so I finally killed it. Strangely there were no problems with active transactions during that time so I'm wondering if the
    query was really running doing anything useful or somehow spinning and waiting. I reviewed the view and found a field I was joining on that was not indexed so created an index on that field, reran the report, which then finished in three minutes and all the
    CPUs were busy but not at all pegged out. Same data queried both times. I figured problem solved. Of course later, my boss ran a similar invoice report, with the same amount of data, and our live transactions started timing out 100% while his query was running.
    I did not get a chance to see the CPU usage during that time.
    I looked at the execution plan of the underlying view and added the suggested index but that did not help. When I run the just the view at SQL Server it does not seem to cause any problems and finished in a couple seconds. Perhaps something else going on in
    the reporting tool using the view.
    My main question is - Given I have to use the live and active database, what is the proper way to run a long R/O query/report so that active transactions can still continue to update
    tables that I am querying? sp_who2 did show transactions being blocked so I guess a long query accessing the tables blocks live transactions accessing those same tables, but certainly I'm not the only one doing this. I
    am considering adding "with (nolock)" but am hoping there is a better standard practice as that clause can return dirty data and I understand why. Thx, Dave
    Thanks, Dave

    Hello
    You can change the DB isolation level to Read uncommitted
    http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms378149(v=sql.110).aspx
    or use WITH (NOLOCK)
    I do use NOLOCK option for the dirty reads to avoid locks on the tables

  • What is the best solution for me to run Microsoft Access on my brand new iMAC?  Assume I'm a casual user.

    What is the best solution for me to run Microsoft Access on my brand new iMAC?  Assume I'm a casual user.
    I am lead to believe by some real smart guys on the Apple site that If I have the Apple Store partition my iMAC and add the full suite of Office products on that partition, I can run the few Access programs I have and need to run.
    Comments encouraged.  Thank you in advance for your consideration and help.

    You would have to install Windows, then install Microsoft Office Professional for Windows on it  To install Windows you will have to choose between Boot Camp (faster, free) and a Virtual Machine (simpler, slower, easier to backup)
    You should try LibreOffice (free), it can open Access files, it may not have all Access's feature set though, worth a try.

    Backup clones of your system and data plus TimeMachine
    Avoid security suites from 3rd parties and other would be helpers (unless instructed to for a specific need and purpose).
    Replace and update older components. could be graphic card, no longer suffices wtih Lion, or causes heat and dust. And make sure that the fans cool the system properly. May need to boost the low default fan speed profile and that is one utility that can be a must. Also monitor system temp readings.
    Don't jusst idly restart after a crash or freeze, use Lion Recovery Mode and Safe Boot instead.

  • What is the best way to run windows on my Mac? And What are the pitfalls I should watch for?

    What is the best way to run windows on my Mac?   What are the pitfalls/

    If you need Windows as your main operating system you would be better off buying a Real Windows PC.
    Running windows on a Mac is always a compromise. Whether in a Boot Camp partition or in a Virtual Machine.
    In boot camp you can't easily Re-Partition and or Re-Size the drive it is installed on. You can't use both graphics cards as Apple has limited Windows to use the discrete graphics only, that is if your mac has 2 graphics cards (15" MBPs), which will shorten the battery run time in Windows.
    The trackpad only has limited functions in Windows, less then is available on the Mac side and a real Windows PC.

  • What is the best antivirus for MacBook Pro?

    What is the best antivirus for MacBook Pro?

    1. This comment applies to malicious software ("malware") that's installed unwittingly by the victim of a network attack. It does not apply to software, such as keystroke loggers, that may be installed deliberately by an intruder who has hands-on access to the victim's computer. That threat is in a different category, and there's no easy way to defend against it. If you have reason to suspect that you're the target of such an attack, you need expert help.
    If you find this comment too long or too technical, read only sections 5, 6, and 10.
    OS X now implements three layers of built-in protection specifically against malware, not counting runtime protections such as execute disable, sandboxing, system library randomization, and address space layout randomization that may also guard against other kinds of exploits.
    2. All versions of OS X since 10.6.7 have been able to detect known Mac malware in downloaded files, and to block insecure web plugins. This feature is transparent to the user, but internally Apple calls it "XProtect." The malware recognition database is automatically checked for updates once a day; however, you shouldn't rely on it, because the attackers are always at least a day ahead of the defenders.
    The following caveats apply to XProtect:
    It can be bypassed by some third-party networking software, such as BitTorrent clients and Java applets.
    It only applies to software downloaded from the network. Software installed from a CD or other media is not checked.
    3. Starting with OS X 10.7.5, there has been a second layer of built-in malware protection, designated "Gatekeeper" by Apple. By default, applications and Installer packages downloaded from the network will only run if they're digitally signed by a developer with a certificate issued by Apple. Software certified in this way hasn't necessarily been tested by Apple, but you can be reasonably sure that it hasn't been modified by anyone other than the developer. His identity is known to Apple, so he could be held legally responsible if he distributed malware. That may not mean much if the developer lives in a country with a weak legal system (see below.)
    Gatekeeper doesn't depend on a database of known malware. It has, however, the same limitations as XProtect, and in addition the following:
    It can easily be disabled or overridden by the user.
    A malware attacker could get control of a code-signing certificate under false pretenses, or could simply ignore the consequences of distributing codesigned malware.
    An App Store developer could find a way to bypass Apple's oversight, or the oversight could fail due to human error.
    For the reasons given above, App Store products, and other applications recognized by Gatekeeper as signed, are safer than others, but they can't be considered absolutely safe. "Sandboxed" applications may prompt for access to private data, such as your contacts, or for access to the network. Think before granting that access. OS X security is based on user input. Never click through any request for authorization without thinking.
    4. Starting with OS X 10.8.3, a third layer of protection has been added: a "Malware Removal Tool" (MRT). MRT runs automatically in the background when you update the OS. It checks for, and removes, malware that may have evaded the other protections via a Java exploit (see below.) MRT also runs when you install or update the Apple-supplied Java runtime (but not the Oracle runtime.) Like XProtect, MRT is presumably effective against known attacks, but maybe not against unknown attacks. It notifies you if it finds malware, but otherwise there's no user interface to MRT.
    5. XProtect, Gatekeeper, and MRT reduce the risk of malware attack, but they're not absolute protection. The first and best line of defense is always your own intelligence. With the possible exception of Java exploits, all known malware circulating on the Internet that affects a fully-updated installation of OS X 10.6 or later takes the form of so-called "trojan horses," which can only have an effect if the victim is duped into running them. The threat therefore amounts to a battle of wits between you and the malware attacker. If you're smarter than he thinks you are, you'll win.
    That means, in practice, that you never use software that comes from an untrustworthy source, or that does something inherently untrustworthy. How do you know what is trustworthy?
    Any website that prompts you to install a “codec,” “plug-in,” "player," "extractor," or “certificate” that comes from that same site, or an unknown one, is untrustworthy.
    A web operator who tells you that you have a “virus,” or that anything else is wrong with your computer, or that you have won a prize in a contest you never entered, is trying to commit a crime with you as the victim. (Some reputable websites did legitimately warn visitors who were infected with the "DNSChanger" malware. That exception to this rule no longer applies.)
    Pirated copies or "cracks" of commercial software, no matter where they come from, are unsafe.
    Software of any kind downloaded from a BitTorrent or from a Usenet binary newsgroup is unsafe.
    Software that purports to help you do something that's illegal or that infringes copyright, such as saving streamed audio or video for reuse without permission, is unsafe. All YouTube "downloaders" are in this category, though not all are necessarily harmful.
    Software with a corporate brand, such as Adobe Flash Player, must be downloaded directly from the developer’s website. If it comes from any other source, it's unsafe.
    Even signed applications, no matter what the source, should not be trusted if they do something unexpected, such as asking for permission to access your contacts, your location, or the Internet for no obvious reason.
    6. Java on the Web (not to be confused with JavaScript, to which it's not related, despite the similarity of the names) is a weak point in the security of any system. Java is, among other things, a platform for running complex applications in a web page, on the client. That was always a bad idea, and Java's developers have proven themselves incapable of implementing it without also creating a portal for malware to enter. Past Java exploits are the closest thing there has ever been to a Windows-style virus affecting OS X. Merely loading a page with malicious Java content could be harmful.
    Fortunately, client-side Java on the Web is obsolete and mostly extinct. Only a few outmoded sites still use it. Try to hasten the process of extinction by avoiding those sites, if you have a choice. Forget about playing games or other non-essential uses of Java.
    Java is not included in OS X 10.7 and later. Discrete Java installers are distributed by Apple and by Oracle (the developer of Java.) Don't use either one unless you need it. Most people don't. If Java is installed, disable it — not JavaScript — in your browsers.
    Regardless of version, experience has shown that Java on the Web can't be trusted. If you must use a Java applet for a task on a specific site, enable Java only for that site in Safari. Never enable Java for a public website that carries third-party advertising. Use it only on well-known, login-protected, secure websites without ads. In Safari 6 or later, you'll see a lock icon in the address bar with the abbreviation "https" when visiting a secure site.
    Follow the above guidelines, and you’ll be as safe from malware as you can practically be. The rest of this comment concerns what you should not do to protect yourself from malware.
    7. Never install any commercial "anti-virus" or "Internet security" products for the Mac, as they all do more harm than good, if they do any good at all. Any database of known threats is always going to be out of date. Most of the danger is from unknown threats. If you need to be able to detect Windows malware in your files, use one of the free anti-virus products in the Mac App Store — nothing else.
    Why shouldn't you use commercial "anti-virus" products?
    Their design is predicated on the nonexistent threat that malware may be injected at any time, anywhere in the file system. Malware is downloaded from the network; it doesn't materialize from nowhere.
    In order to meet that nonexistent threat, the software modifies or duplicates low-level functions of the operating system, which is a waste of resources and a common cause of instability, bugs, and poor performance.
    By modifying the operating system, the software itself may create weaknesses that could be exploited by malware attackers.
    8. An anti-malware product from the App Store, such as "ClamXav," doesn't have these drawbacks. That doesn't mean it's entirely safe. It may report email messages that have "phishing" links in the body, or Windows malware in attachments, as infected files, and offer to delete or move them. Doing so will corrupt the Mail database. The messages should be deleted from within the Mail application.
    An anti-virus app is not needed, and should not be relied upon, for protection against OS X malware. It's useful only for detecting Windows malware. Windows malware can't harm you directly (unless, of course, you use Windows.) Just don't pass it on to anyone else.
    A Windows malware attachment in email is usually easy to recognize. The file name will often be targeted at people who aren't very bright; for example:
    ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥!!!!!!!H0TBABEZ4U!!!!!!!.AVI♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥.exe
    Anti-virus software may be able to tell you which particular virus or trojan it is, but do you care? In practice, there's seldom a reason to use the software unless a network administrator requires you to do it.
    The ClamXav developer won't try to "upsell" you to a paid version of the product. Other developers may do that. Don't be upsold. For one thing, you should not pay to protect Windows users from the consequences of their choice of computing platform. For another, a paid upgrade from a free app will probably have the disadvantages mentioned in section 7.
    9. It seems to be a common belief that the built-in Application Firewall acts as a barrier to infection, or prevents malware from functioning. It does neither. It blocks inbound connections to certain network services you're running, such as file sharing. It's disabled by default and you should leave it that way if you're behind a router on a private home or office network. Activate it only when you're on an untrusted network, for instance a public Wi-Fi hotspot, where you don't want to provide services. Disable any services you don't use in the Sharing preference pane. All are disabled by default.
    10. As a Mac user you don't have to live in fear that your computer is going to be infected every time you install an application, read email, or visit a web page. But neither should you have the false idea that you will always be safe, no matter what you do. The greatest harm done by security software is precisely its selling point: it makes people feel safe. They may then feel safe enough to take risks from which the software doesn't protect them. Nothing can lessen the need for safe computing practices.

  • What's the best way to run FrameMaker 8 on a Mac?

    What's my best bet for running FrameMaker 8 on a MacBook Macintosh laptop?
    Can I run FM 8 directly under OS X, since it's a Unix app? Any special tricks to making it go?
    Or will I need to run FM 8 under Linux or Windows? If so, I'll need to be able to copy and paste from one environment to the other. What are my options? Their pros and cons?
    I'm switching from a PowerBook to a MacBook so I can run MacSpeech Dictate dictation software. Dictate ONLY runs on Intel Macs.
    I currently use FrameMaker+SGML 6.0 in Classic. It CAN'T run on the Intel Macs.
    I have over half a million words of FrameMaker files, including 7 volumes of cross-referenced research notes I add to almost daily. Since I am heavily dependent on FrameMaker's features, it's a must-have.
    I haven't bought the MacBook yet, so if there are any hardware requirements I need to know about, or options I should consider or avoid, please let me know.

    > If I understood him correctly, the Adobe salesperson I talked to
    > yesterday runs the Unix version of FrameMaker directly under OS X
    There is NO way to get the Unix (=Solaris) version of FM 8 to run
    under OS X. It's an executable compiled for the SPARC processor,
    and I don't think Apple has made a SPARC/Solaris emulator... :-)

  • What are the best approaches for mapping re-start in OWB?

    What are the best approaches for mapping re-start in OWB?
    We are using OWB repository 10.2.0.1.0 and OWB client 10.2.0.1.31. The Oracle version is 10 G (10.2.0.3.0). OWB is installed on Linux.
    We have number of mappings. We built process flows for mappings as well.
    I like to know, what are the best approches to incorportate re-start options in our process. ie a failure of mapping in process flow.
    How do we re-cycle failed rows?
    Are there any builtin features/best approaches in OWB to implement the above?
    Does runtime audit tables help us to build re-start process?
    If not, do we need to maintain our own tables (custom) to maintain such data?
    How did our forum members handled above situations?
    Any idea ?
    Thanks in advance.
    RI

    Hi RI,
    How many mappings (range) do you have in a process flows?Several hundreds (100-300 mappings).
    If we have three mappings (eg m1, m2, m3) in process flow. What will happen if m2 fails?Suppose mappings connected sequentially (m1 -> m2 -> m3). When m2 fails then processflow is suspended (transition to m3 will not be performed). You should obviate cause of error (modify mapping and redeploy, correct data, etc) and then repeat m2 mapping execution from Workflow monitor - open diagram with processflow, select mapping m2 and click button Expedite, choose option Repeat.
    In re-start, will it run m1 again and m2 son on, or will it re-start at row1 of m2?You can specify restart point. "at row1 of m2" - I don't understand what you mean (all mappings run in Set based mode, so in case of error all table updates will rollback,
    but there are several exception - for example multiple target tables in mapping without corelated commit, or error in post-mapping - you must carefully analyze results of error).
    What will happen if m3 fails?Process is suspended and you can restart execution from m3.
    By having without failover and with max.number of errors=0, you achieve re-cycle failed rows to zero (0).This settings guarantee existence only two return result of mapping - SUCCSES or ERROR.
    What is the impact, if we have large volume of data?In my opinion for large volume Set based mode is the prefered processing mode of data processing.
    With this mode you have full range enterprise features of Oracle database - parallel query, parallel DML, nologging, etc.
