Anyone out there actually used this Piv 6 Document Management software?  It appears to be an add-on cost item.

 3   General Category / Sedna (Pivotal 6) / Failed to retrieve appointment error - Piv 6 SP7  on: September 03, 2010, 08:35:52 AM

I'm wondering if anyone has seen this error in Piv 6 SP7.  I Schedule a Meeting under Create Activities.  No problems.  It is on the screen in the list of Outstanding Interactions (Activity Dashboard).  I double click to open it and get:

Failed to retrieve appointment.  Interaction ID: xxxxx Details: Access denied for table:  Rn_Int_Registration.  User name: xxx. PBS Message:  Unable to build a recordset for the search.  1.  Cannot find either column "dbo" or the user-defined function or aggregate "dbo.rfn_IdToUserString", or the name is ambiguous.

After about 4 days of screwing around I believe I tracked this down to the Pivotal System ED database --> Programmability --> Functions --> Scalar-valued Functions.  There is a function there called "rfn_IdToUserString" which has been setup with my Windows ID as the function owner rather than 'dbo'.  So I see "winID.rfn_IdToUserString" rather than "dbo.rfn_IdToUserString".  Creating a copy of the function with 'dbo' seems to solve the problem.

This is a Win 2008 R2 server running SQL 2008.  The entire Pivotal system is right out of the box - zero customizations.

Hello all,

Anyone know what "eService Product" tab  in Contact form  means?
Someone told me that the product you choose there will be a filter in the eService so that the contact will see or will not see items relate to that product. Is that true?

Thanks,
Elad

Hello everyone,

I have a problem with the  Full Text Search. When I want to serach something with "Exact Match" it gives me a results that are not exact match.
Is there a chance that the search process got damaged in some way? Can I control it somehow?

Thanks,

This happens when you are trying to save a form that has a value(s) in some field(s) more than its length/limit.

I'm trying to setup a click-once deployment server for Piv 6.  During the installation of the Smart Client Framework it asks me for "Web Site" and "Port Number".  I'm not clear what it wants here.  There is a button called "Select Web Site" but when I press that the only available selection is "Default Web Site" and port 80.

Anyone have an idea what goes here?
