I want to create a user in IAM which is only for service purposes. Nobody has ever to login on this user.Because we have many environments, I want to automate this.Creating the user is not a problem, but i do not know how to set the password with encryption.I see i need the password, a salt and the password-hash and then i understand that i can use the sql script:insert into usr_authentication (      [tenant_id]      ,[usr_id]      ,[password_hash]      ,[password_salt]      ,[password_algorithm]) Values ( … )but in what way can i determine the values of the hash?

When producing cube view graphs in Windos GUI we see an expected row where we have a Date type field: However, the Universal GUI shows this Date field as follows:  Question: how can we have a cube view where the row Date only shows a date without 'T00:00:00’? Please advise, thank you, Paul 

I'm having some trouble getting things to work. For a webservice we need to base64 encode our message before transmitting it. This worked fine untill we encountered a diacritical mark (ë, î, ú, etc) in the message we want to encode. Then the webservice we're contacting start throwing errors.I've created a test script to show the exact problem and to provide a starting point to hopefully find a solution to this issue. I contains a sample for a correctly encoded message and an invalid one. declare @source varbinary(max) ,@encoded varchar(max)--SAMPLE MESSAGES ONE WITH AND ONE WITHOUT DIACRITICAL MARKS DECLARE @message varchar(max) = 'Dit zijn diekrieten ë, î en ú.'; DECLARE @message2 varchar(max) = 'Dit zijn geen diekrieten e, i en u.';--KNOW CORRECT BASE64 RESULTS AS CALCULATED WITH THE OPENSSL LIBRARY DECLARE @message_base64 nvarchar(max) = 'RGl0IHppam4gZGlla3JpZXRlbiDDqywgw64gZW4gw7ou'; DECLARE @message2_base64 nvarchar(max) = 'RGl0IHppam4gZ2VlbiBkaWVrcmlldGVuIGUsIGkgZW4gdS4=';--BAS

Hi all, Is it possible to limit the access to OData API apart from the rights (insert/copy/delete/update) on a table given in the SF? Since we do not want every user /  user group to have access to the OData API, we would like to limit certain users / user groups.  Thanks in advance.

Hi all, I have a question concerning a failed synchronization to IAM. As can be seen on the image below, the synchronization to IAM has failed on the step ‘Synchornizing: project’. However, it doesn't seem possible to abort the failed synchronization. So, how do I abort a failed synchronization to IAM.I have tried to cancel it via maintenance → jobs, but this doesn't seem to work. Additionally, in maintenance → Jobs, the ‘active job’ isn't listed as an active job (second image) Thanks in advance. Failed synchronizationNo active jobError  

We have an internal API which consumes data from our Thinkwise application through Indicium. Up until recently we had been using Indicium Basic, however recently we have started our upgrade to Universal. For authenticating users with Indicium through the API, in Basic we used the URL indicium/(sf|iam)/<app_id>/$logout, to which we would send a basic authentication header supplied by the client calling the API. However, in Universal this endpoint does not seem to exist anymore. Is there a similar endpoint in Universal which allows us to authenticate users through a basic auth header? Other ways of authenticating users are of course also welcome, but some form of username/password authentication is preferred.Thanks in advance!

Is it possible to maintain multiple instances of the SF application in one IAM environment? I would like to do this in this way, because I want to store the model of various customer applications in separate databases. In this way, customer-specific knowledge stored in the model can be properly secured. It didn't seem to be a problem to do this, but when I opened the IAM environment I found out that only 1 SF application could open a project.   The Project Tab is only visible for Environment B  

I am trying to simply execute a task, without parameters with a process flow every hour.         Indicium Universal (2020.2.2) is running, but I don't see any activity. The version of IAM is 2020.1 and al hotfixes are done.   Could someone explain, step by step, what to do?   

 For a new customer I was setting up the environments and after everything was set up I found something missing. Since the application looks exactly the same on all environments (dev, acc and prod) I was missing a feature to easily spot the difference between them. Therefore I've implemented a simple css in the custom.css file. Between environments I've modified two parameters.content (‘DEVELOPMENT’ for dev and 'ACCEPTATION’ for acc) background (red for dev and blue for acc)For the production environment we did not implement this code. So if you see a badge in the left bottom corner it is not production. body > div:first-of-type::after { content: 'ACCEPTATION'; display: block; position: absolute; bottom: 1px; left: 1px; background: blue; z-index: 999999999999999999999999999999; color: white; padding: 10px 20px;}Since it is implemented in Universal it works for any application, including IAM.This is what it looks like: 

We need this because in the application we have workflow module and we have assign work items to active user only.  Active user: user is logged in and his last activity is less then 45 minutes ago. 

Hi Team,In GUI, translations are not getting reflected after refreshing object model. In SF all the objects are in translated state still it is showing as untranslated in GUI. Other user interface changes are getting reflected correctly.How to resolve this?Note: we recently migrated our projects to new environment and we are not sure, this could be the reason. 

The Universal GUI don't show any lookup values in grid and shows POST 403 (Forbidden) error. Can someone explain what's the problem here and how to fix it?   No error log in Microsoft Azure Application Insights 

Hi,We have a problem with one of our screens. The screen shows 3 separate grids and the main grid has a task that uses all 3 of them: the problem we are facing is that when I edit a value in the formgrid on the right and forget to save the record it won't get saved. It saves when moving to another record but we cannot force the user to do so and in this case there is only one record.The result is that the task uses the old values instead of the new ones :(We have the same issue in all parts of the screen that do not own the task: When I do the same thing in the upper left part of the screen it works fine because there seems to be some sort of mechanism that saves the data during the initialization of the task execution.Is there a way to utilize that also for the other parts?In short: how can I force TW to save the changes in all parts of the screen on executing the task?

I have a table task which triggers a process flow.This table task is linked to 3 tables.I want the process flow to conclude with refreshing the correct table.So, is there a way to assertain which of the 3 tables to refresh? 

 Why is there no column type anymore in the reports in the SF, can we get it back?

Hello. I added a new column to a table and I made a reference to another table. And when I tried to add a value in the column I received this error.

We’re trying to start a task with some task parameters in a process flow. But this results in a bad request error in the Universal GUI but not in the Windows GUI. In brief we’re trying to build a functionality that let’s our users send semi-automated emails. We’ve created some email templates that we’d like to enrich with data from our application. But before sending these emails the user should be able to make changes to the generated email.To accomplish this we’ve created a table with email templates, and added a table task on another table that triggers an process flow. This process flow should enrich the email template with some data from our application and then return the result to the user. So in the process flow, after retrieving data based on the selected record and adding this to the email template we’d like to start another task with an (editable) task parameter so it pops-up in the GUI. However when we’re trying to do this we receive a bad request error. If I run exactly th

Hi all,For a client I’ve been asked to investigate on what level (in general terms) interfaces from the TW ERP system with financial systems are working and especially when the financial systems are ERP systems themselves like EXACT Globe or Business Central (Microsoft) or other.From my experience the interface is done on ledger level. So only financial bookings are created to reflect the financial output of the ERP process in the financial system.However there may be reasons to interface sales orders and/or purchase orders as well.Has anyone from a Business management perspective some best practice examples what choses are made (and why have those choses have being made) when talking about interfacing with financial systems. Basically it comes to the questions: Where do organizations lay down their cut between the TW ERP and the financial system? What data is generally interfaced?It would help a lot to get some more perspective from your experience about this subject. 

Hello everyone,We're running into an interesting problem. We have an entity (say, a group) that has contacts (persons). The group is part of an organization. The organization is the owner of all the contacts, but you want to select a contact with a group, but only from a list of contacts within the organization.We use a lookup to select the contact with the group. But, we only want to select a contact from the contacts of the organization that the group is part of. How do we tackle this?Best regards,- Alex

It looks like the (process) testrecorder records the html tags on a html control as if that was the actual input by the end user. Now when replaying such recorded tests result in rather strange input value because it suddenly has the html tags in its input value.How do you cope with these things without editing the recorded input? Or would this be a bug? Maybe a fully intentional feature where I can’t fathom its subliminal complexity?

Hi!I'd like to customize the Universal login screen, more than described in the CSS customization.Something I wish to add is another card to the login screen:Example screenshotThis could be to the left and/or right of the already existing login card. All I'd like to add to that card is text. Is this possible and has this been done before, if so how?Thanks!
