How to handle users with same name
Hi, I'm asking community what type of solutions are you using to handle users with same first name and surname. As you know the Identity is created based on user first name and last name and in default (and we like to keep it so) the Identity name needs to be unique. Currently our users comes trough integration and their login ID is unique but there are people with same name that causes "Already exists" issue We are thinking to add unique login identifier to the surname field but that is visually a bit distracting. Any other ways you guys have resolved these types of issues?95Views0likes4CommentsCustomizing BatchLoader in ARAS 31 to Add Users with Identities
Hi everyone, I recently migrated from ARAS version 11 to version 31. In ARAS 11, we used the BatchLoader tool to import user data from an Excel file, which included both user details and their associated identities. However, after migrating to ARAS 31, I noticed that the BatchLoader no longer supports adding users and identities together in a single operation. The AML mapping now restricts us to using only one ItemType at a time, which makes it difficult to replicate our previous process. Has anyone tried customizing the BatchLoader in ARAS 31 to overcome this limitation? I’d really appreciate any guidance or suggestions on how to achieve this. Thanks in advance for your help! — Salini54Views0likes0CommentsUpdating user role
HI, I tried to give some role like config management, component engineer, change specialist II role to user. But the part creation and Product creation feature is not getting activated. Is there any wait time it takes for the role to get updated or something? It doesnt seem to updating the roles as per selection.

Hi, Is it possible to show SearchDialog from a Server method? I can use MaximazableDialog in Javascript to show the SearchDialog and get the response in callback. But I want to use such facility in a Server method. In my particular case, I am trying to send email using a server method. If the Recipent is already entered then it sends the email. But I want to prompt the user to search for another user item when Recipient is not pre-defined. If that is not possible then any alternative suggestions will be appreciated.

Good day all. We have created an Identity called sm_AddUsers (v11 SP10). We have a separate team that is taking over the responsibilities of adding users to the system and they do not require any other elevated privileges, so I don't want to add them to the Administrators Identity. I can't seem to get this Identity setup correctly with permissions to be able to add users. The current error they receive is Add access is denied for Alias. Aras.Server.Core.PermissionsNoCanAddFoundException I went through User, Alias, Identity, and Member ItemTypes and made sure the Identity was in Can Add and the permissions where set the same as the Administrators (except User, they cannot delete). I'm at a loss for why this is happening. Is there something else that affects who can add a User? Thank you for your help.Solved4.7KViews0likes2CommentsUser Can't See an Entry
Good day all. I am using Aras v11 SP10. I have a weird problem. The system is using an ItemType s_Part for the parts instead of using the OOTB Part. A user created two parts in the system. When he created the parts he could find them, but no other Users could find them in a grid search (admin accounts could find them). I promoted the parts to Released and now none of the Users can see them. I can still find them with my admin account, but I can't find them with my User account (didn't matter if I was looking under Current, Latest, Released, or Effective). I used Nash to verify that is_current is set to 1. I'm at a loss for what is going on with this. We used to have the Lifecycle for the parts with Released as the only point on it (parts were usually released by the associated Parts List document). We added the standard Part Lifecycle to s_Part. Nothing has changed with the Permissions. Thanks for any help that can be provided.Solved5.1KViews0likes4CommentsUser Password
Good day all. How can I set the user password when creating an account? Our system normally logs a user in with a badge/credentials. I need to create a few user accounts for the admins that will use a password to log in with, so we can test some of the changes that are being made. I tried creating an account through the User section and typed a password in, but I could not log on with the account. I found a post about using AML to create an account & set the password. It worked for the first account I created, but didn't for the second account. Not sure what is going on. I have tried editing the account & deleting it then reading. I keep receiving an error that indicates the password is incorrect. Thank you for any help you can provide. AML New User PasswordSolved5.6KViews0likes4CommentsCreate User When Identity Exists?
Good day all. I am running into a problem when trying to create a User. I have an Identity that is used during Lifecycle Released state for documents. I would like this Identity to send an e-mail to a specific account. I figured that I would create a User to add the e-mail to, but when I create the User I receive a message stating that I can't because the Identity already exists. How can I fix this issue? Also, how can I associate the two? Thank you for the help.6.8KViews0likes4CommentsReport User Identity Relationship
Good day all. I ran a report for Inactive Users. I have a list of almost 3000 users that have never logged in. I would like to remove these accounts, but my boss wants to make sure that these accounts don't have any other relationships. Has anyone created a report that can show me a list of Identities that only have a User relationship and Users that only have an Identity relationship?
