I have just installed EP6.0 SP2 on J2EE 6.2. I have R/3 systems 4.6C and 4.7. Which versions of the iviewstudio business packages for ESS and MSS should I install?

Gary,
If you have access to sdn, you can check the Portal Content Portfolio (from SDN home), --> Search Content Portfolio (on right pane/nav) and you will get the People Centric Search screen.
Within the search criteria's you can choose by selecting Business Package, or globally search by EP 6.0.

ESS/MSS business packages "Deployed with Warning"

Hello All,
 We are on NW04s SP10 on MS SQL server and Windows server. The Database and portal installations or on different machines. I installed the business packages ESS 1.0, MSS 1.0 and the XSS components - 600 using the JSPM.

Now, after this, when I log into the portal and see the MSS role, the links are all missing. I see only Overview and its worksets and pages and Reports and its worksets. Everything else is missing. The warning that I see is "Linked object is unavailable"
Could anyone please suggest me what could be wrong?
Thanks,
Sunitha

Hi Sunitha,
First of all I was not able to find if your backend is ERP 2004 or ERP 2005. It should be ERP 2005 if you want to user ESS 1.0 and MSS 1.0 BP
Please check in Content Administrator if you can locate these applications and test the same. If yes then you can ignore this warning. If No, in that case you have to redeploy XSS, ESS and MSS using SDM again.
The links in portal comes from your backend Area Page Customizing. To verify if the problem is with your Portal Business Package or with your backend customizing run your ESS applications using
http://<portal>:<port>/webdynpro/dispatcher/sap.com/pcui_gp~xssutils/XssMenuArea?sap.xss.menuhdr=SAPDEFAULT&sap.xss.menuargrp=SAPDEFAULTESS
and MSS using
http://<portal>:<port>/webdynpro/dispatcher/sap.com/pcui_gp~xssutils/XssMenuArea?sap.xss.menuhdr=SAPDEFAULT&sap.xss.menuargrp=SAPDEFAULTMSS
If you can see all the links correctly here, your backend customization is fine and there is a problem with your BP of ESS and MSS. So you will have to import the same again in the portal. However if you are not able to view the links in the page, then there is a problem with you Area Page Customization. You will need to check your config with the Client 000 configuration to find out the missing config.
Hope this helps.

Shubham
