I'm trying to follow some instructions with the first line:
1) Set the "query field" (Account Name in getUserProfileByName Secondary Recieve data source) to the Account Id of field selected in People Picker.
From here. But when I go try and edit queryfields it's greyed out? Ultimately I'm trying to populate fields when a user selects a user from a People Picker. Any help appreciated.
I'm using InfoPath 2013.
To autocomplete this you'll have to use a support or population-related field, with a new action rule. This is due to people picker fields not allowing any action rules applied to them.
Condition:
Use the condition DisplayName is not blank by using "Select a field or group..." in advanced view and selecting your people pickers field
Actions:
Set a field's value
Field: data connection queryFields DisplayName of people picker
Value: your forms DisplayName of people picker
Query using a data connection: getUserProfileByName / User Information List
Set a field's value
Field: your forms Department field
Value: data fields > Department of your data connection
Please note: getUserProfileByName / User Profile Service Data Connection no longer works in SharePoint Online and results in an error 5566. Please use a SharePoint list data connection to the hidden User Information List on the stem of your SharePoint site instead. It provides you with most of the same fields you'd find in getUserProfileByName, see below:
Name
Account
Work_email
Mobile_phone
About_me
SIP_Address
Is_Site_Admin
Deleted
Hidden
Picture
Department
Title
First_name
Last_name
Work_phone
User_name
Web_site
Ask_Me_About
Office
Picture_Timestamp
Picture_Placeholder_State
Picture_Exchange_Sync_State
Hope that helps!

So I'm creating a ms access database to allow associates to request time off and i need to be able to auto fill a text box based on the user login. that being said, i have a table that has all of the usernames passwords and employee names in it with a yes/no column attached to each user. My question is how can i get the yes/no value to auto set to no when the "login screen" form loads? I want to use the usernames in access not enviorn(username) to get the windows username.
"My question is how can i get the yes/no value to auto set to no when the "login screen" form loads?"
Create an update query that updates the yes/no field to 0 in table Users (usernames passwords and employee names in it with a yes/no column attached to each user)...name it i.e. ZeroUsersQry
then in the OnLoad event of form login:
docmd.setwarnings false
docmd.openquery "ZeroUsersQry"
I am trying to increment an Id in a Sharepoint list.
I have tried different settings in the online editor of Sharepoint under "Settings > List Settings > Edit Column > Calculated Value".
Another option I tried was to create a custom add form using InfoPath.
In this custom form, I added a rule on my field contactId. The rule has two actions.
Create a Query to the Contacts table
Set the current Id equal to (the maximum idContacts + 1)
enter image description here
A thirth option I tried is to set a rule under Submit options. That way I thought when I submit my form it will check if idContacts is currently blank. It will Query the Contacts table, set the current idContacts as the (maximum idContacts + 1) and finally submit the data to my table.
enter image description here
Finally When I submit my form it gives a pop up message "Connecting to Server" then it redirects to my list but nothing is added to the list.
Does anyone know what my problem could be. Or does anyone know a proper way to do this. I already lookup up a lot of tutorials and other information but I can not find it.
Thank you in advance!
I want to modify the webscript alfresco-remote-api-5.0.d.jar\alfresco\templates\webscripts\org\alfresco\repository\person\people.get.js. I need to display for the connected user only user he has created.
I have modify the filter to include username in query.
filter = filter + " AND cm:creator:admin";
people.getPeoplePaging(filter, paging, sortBy, sortAsc);
This must display only users created by admin.
But it's not working(no user is returned).
How can i select only users created by a certain user ?
By looking at below definition of content model I sure , what you want to achieve is not possible ,as person(user) does not have creator property.Below link shows the content model for users.

I am using a data connection list to load desired views in an InfoPath form on SharePoint. I have a permission list with 2 columns: usernames and control group. My form on the main list loads a specific view based on what the username and group are of the permission list. You have to filter out the group based on the form's username() function to match the username column and set that as a condition to (on form load) change it to a specific view.
All this works, but the problem comes in when you have a user with multiple control groups. The filter only returns the first instance it finds. I can't think of a way to fix this. Maybe load the other list as a repeating table into the form, but then how would I reference that table in the conditions of a form load rule? Or is there a way to get a field filter to look past the first item it finds?
Update: I forgot to mention that I have to use a field to hold your filtered username:id:group aka group[title=username()] and then use that in the form load conditions. I think this is where the problem is, as this filter is what doesn't store all instances of the users id from the control list, but only the first.
SharePoint 2010 with forms created in InfoPath 2010
Are you querying the data in from info path or using visual studio, if you are querying in info path check the condition as Display name matches the username() and the query the data
I am trying to create a login for my database and I don't want to use the Microsoft way of doing so. I want to have the users login with a username and password then have that information verified in the "tblUsers" table.
UserID LoginID Level LevelID
jpurk jack23 admin 3
krimes kitty editor 2
lwalms low34 reader 1
I got as far as verifying the "UserID" and "LoginID" using dlookup
Nz(DLookup("[LoginID]", "tblUsers", "[UserID] = '" & Me.txtUserID & "'"), "")
=Me.txtPassword
The problem I have now is that I want certain items on the menu unavailable to users without the proper Level; If they are only an "editor" or a "reader", then I don't want them to have access to the "administrative" button where I have placed all admin forms.
After I use dLookup to verify the username and password, how do I now find out their "Level" and assign rights to different menu items? Thank you.
Assuming your DLookup has found an existing LoginID value, you can use another to retrieve that user's LevelID. Then enable/disable the administrative command button based on their LevelID.
I'll suggest something like this in Form Load:
Dim lngLevelID As Long
lngLevelID = DLookup("[LevelID]", "tblUsers", "[LoginID] = " & Me.txtLoginID)
Me.cmdAdmin.Enabled = (lngLevelID = 3)
Notes: That assumes you've previously loaded the user's LoginID number into a text box named txtLoginID. txtLoginID could be hidden if you don't want the users to see it. Or you can grab the LoginID value by some other method.
If you have one-to-one matches between Level and LevelID, you shouldn't need to store both values in tblUsers. You can create a UserLevels lookup table to hold both, and store just the LevelID in tblUsers as a foreign key to the appropriate row in UserLevels.
Finally, the strategy you're using can work, but the security is shaky. As "guidance" to users willing to follow the rules, it's OK. But it can be easily circumvented by even unsophisticated users. Look for a different approach if your security needs are stringent.
