Multiuser workspace Tricentis Tosca

Does anyone have solution steps, where I can see how to work on multi user workspace which was created by another user in Tricentis Tosca.
Note: The workspace is stored in MS sql DB by another user, I want to work on same workspace.
I search a lot but not getting details steps.
Before you can work on an object in a multi-user workspace it must be checked out. You might look into taking the Automation Specialist 1 training class as I believe it has a section that covers checkin/checkout.

QODBC SELECT taking > 15 minutes to return results

I'm pretty new to using QODBC for QuickBooks reporting. One of the first SELECT queries I prepared essentially flags customers with existing unused payments in the ReceivePayment table, querying against invoices with remaining balance for that same customer. The output is (or should be) a list of customers grouped by CustomerRefFullName, with a sum of unused payments in column #2, and sum of total balance remaining from open invoices.
It's a fairly simple query. When I import the table to MS Access as a static table, the query is fast as would be expected. However, when I run the query against a linked table, it takes upwards of 15 minutes to produce the results.
This should not be happening. Is this a MS Access misconfiguration issue? Something else relating to QODBC configuration that I am missing or unaware of? Any help would be appreciated.
I would like to inform you that when you Import QuickBooks data in the Access & run query, then obviously it will execute faster because all data available in a local MS Access table (offline). But when you execute query from linked table, QODBC is fetching data from QuickBooks. QODBC is an ODBC driver which uses QuickBooks SDK.
QODBC works by accepting SQL commands from applications through the ODBC interface, then converting those calls to navigational XML commands to the QuickBooks Accounting DBMS and returning record sets that qualify for the query results. This driver is not a Client/Server product, but rather communicates directly with the QuickBooks application as it runs. QuickBooks is a flat file database, and this driver will not change it into a relational database, so keep that in mind when developing with this driver.
QODBC acts as a 'wrapper' around the Intuit SDK so customers can finally get at their QuickBooks data using standard database tools; speeding development time.
Please keep in mind that QODBC is not a database tool, but rather a translation tool. Every transaction you request must be translated and communicated to QuickBooks via large complicated XML transactions.
The QuickBooks application layer needs to process those XML requests. The larger the number of Records, the lengthier the XML request, therefore QuickBooks may take more time and memory to process longer requests.
I would suggest you to enable QODBC status panel via QODBC Setup Screen->Message Window->Select "Display Driver Status" and "Display optimizer Status" options.
Then the next time you run a query, if you see “Waiting for QuickBooks”, it means QuickBooks is taking time to process the request. There will be a status panel at the lower right corner of your screen, will be shown a window with information on what QODBC is working at. Please note the step on which QODBC spends the most time or get stuck and share it with us.
I also suggest you to try executing below command on VB Demo and see it can resolve the issue:
SP_OPTIMIZEFULLSYNC ALL
This command will bring some data to a local cache to increase retrieval performance for queries. I would like to suggest you to please let run above command completely. Above command may take sometime depends on your records in QuickBooks. It may take 2-5 hours or more depends on the number of records in QuickBooks company file. Please let this command run completely do not kill this command. It is not advisable to kill/close the application while its building the Optimizer file.

How to execute SP_OPTIMIZEUPDATESYNC or SP_OPTIMIZEFULLSYNC for Selected Tables

Removing "dead" user accounts from TFS & SQL after server migration

I have searched high and low for a solution to this problem to no avail.
Basically, the situation is as follows:
We are currently migrating our existing TFS server to another machine, which has been going well up until now.
Unfortunately i'm unable to complete the configuration of Report server and the likes as I get the following error:
"Failed to add SWSERVER\susan account to the TFSEXECROLE role on the Tfs_Warehouse relational database"
SWSERVER is the name of the previous machine that hosted the TFS server.
The thing is that SWSERVER\susan is an absolete account, and was actually removed as a user account on the previous machine, which I think is a major part of the problem.
From what I can gather is that TFS can still see it in the restored databases and thinks it's a viable account but seeing as the account technically doesn't exist it can't actually do anything with it.
Another part of the question is that if I go to the original (SWSERVER) and remove the SWSERVER\susan user, will that have an effect on how TFS or SQL operate especially if that account (or any other similar account) are linked to anything in either program?
I'd much appreciate any help anyone can provide.
I've hope i've explained my situation well enough but if anybody needs any more information, please don't hesitate to let me know.
You can't remove users, they will fall out of scope anyway, however that is not your problem. Your TFS instance has been moved from one server to another without following the documented procedure.
You need to follow the instruction to Move Team Foundation Server from one environment to another. Although they will be based on the more common move of Domain to Domain you can think of a non-domain joined server as having a domain of the same name as the local computer.
Now this documentation also follow as using the same hardware so you will need to mix and match between Move Team Foundation Server from one environment to another and Move Team Foundation Server from one hardware configuration to another.
While not really that hard you do need to follow all of the steps...
Just want to thank you for your reply and help. As it turns out I was flogging a dead horse with the TFS Reporting setups when I found out that the reports aren't even used currently on the existing setup.
I did however manage to figure out that if I added every user that previously existed as Windows users on the new machine and then used the TFSconfig Identities /change command to change the domain (machine name, in this case) name to that of the new server then I stopped getting the error messages and after 3-4 reinstall attempts all seems to be working the way it should.

SharePoint 2010 Workflow

We have Oracle 11g base HR System. Now our requirement is to make some workflow on SharePoint 2010. So we comeup to the decission that we will make webpart to insert, update and retrive records from Oracle and then we will start workflow on that.
So my question was, is it possible to start workflow without is list or document library. If yes than how can I get some idea on that. Some URL where I can find more details.
Kindly let me know if I am going in wrong direction. Please help on that.
You can have site level workflows in SharePoint 2010 which can run without list or a library.
See:
http://www.sharepointbriefing.com/spcode/article.php/3910746/Using-SiteLevel-Workflows-in-SharePoint-2010.htm
However, there is not much information available in the question to evaluate weather its the right option or not. It depends on what is the workflow requirement etc.

Question about MSDN and commercial use

I work for a small digital marketing company as a programmer, and we are not a Microsoft partner or any sort (Gold/Silver/Bronze). However, we use .NET.
What I am confused about is that the developer before me has left, and he gets subscription DVDs of latest Microsoft tools, delivered to the company (Sql Server etc).
I am assumign this is not a personal subscription, because if it was he'd have changed addresses.
Anyway, the subscription is Professional and we use the tools for commercial purposes. Is this allowed? Also, am I allowed to use the tools that we get, at home? I want to use Windows Server at home for dev purposes (learning it for my exams).
Thanks
Thanks for the advice guys.
The license is registered in my boss name but I think a networking guy has added himself as an additional user.
MSDN FAQ says I can have up to 10 instances of the tools installed. I was thinking if I use a product key off MSDN, then that key is forever in use and no additional licenses can be installed.
For the definitive answer read through the MSDN subscription FAQ which includes the license terms.
My understanding is that you can use the software to support development work for your company, but not run production servers. Ie. you could develop Exchange add-ins but not run your company's email using the Exchange Server that comes with MSDN.
Using the software at home is probably a grey area. If it is on company owned equipment and supports your development goals then it sounds OK. If it is on your own equipment then it likely goes against the details of the EULA. You could always try calling Microsoft and asking.
In short, no, you can't use any of the MSDN disks for production services at all. Dev and Test only. If you develop an app using them, then put it into production (eg you develop a timesheet app for yourselves) once it starts being used as a timesheet app, you need to buy full versions of everything it needs.
There's one more thing you need to consider. You need to buy a copy of the MSDN for each developer. Just because it says you can use up to 10 instances does not mean anyone else can (otherwise I could use some of your licences, if you wouldn't mind :) ).
So if there's 3 devs in your team, you need to buy 3 MSDN licences. That also applies if you run a server using the MSDN licence that the other devs access - I think you might be OK if the other devs bought CALs to access it, but the T&C is confusing to say the least.
You also need to bear in mind that MSDN licences are recurring - we bought them on a 3 year select agreement, you might have different terms.
We're being audited by MS at the moment. Turns out developing for Windows can get very expensive :(
Read Microsoft's white paper on Visual Studio 2013 licensing
Example: A developer with an MSDN subscription uses MSDN software at work during the day, but occasionally needs to develop at home as well, using a different computer. Under the MSDN license, there is no difference between a PC at work and a home PC; the home PC is just another device on which the developer is entitled use the MSDN software.
However, the restrictions for the MSDN software running on the developer’s home PC remain the same as in the work environment: the MSDN software installed on the home PC must only be used for design, development and testing purposes; and only other users with an appropriate MSDN subscription can use the software.
Visual Studio and MSDN Licensing White Paper
If the subscription was paid for by the company, you should be able to change the named individual to yourself (or someone else in the company). This would allow you to access MSDN using the subscription to download software and submit problem reports. We had a license that we switched one when one of the licensed individuals left. Unfortunately, our software licensing office took care of it, so I don't know the details of how it was done. We also purchased it under a Select license, so it would probably be different anyway.
Heed #Rob Walker's advice and check out the FAQ for what you can do with the software.
