Importing CRM roles into Portal

Hi All,
   I am using CRM-5.0 as backend and ER-6.0 with it. Both of them are sharing the same datasource. But if I create a new role in CRM I can't find it from portal. Whereas the users created in CRM are visible in portal. How can I import all the roles available in CRM to portal? My System landscape is working properly.
Thanks
Indranil Datta

Hi Indranil
SAP/CRM roles are built with transaction PFCG. Portal roles are built using portal tools. They have no direct connection.
In theory you can upload SAP/CRM roles into the portal to become portal roles, but what do you gain? Every time you change the SAP/CRM role you need to upload it again..
You are better to make portal roles that are assigned to portal groups that are the same as the PFCG roles. Maintain the portal roles manually, probably with a subset of the all the functions in the CRM role and assign them to the portal group that represents the FCG role.
Cheers

  • R/3 Transaction Iviews vs Imported ABAP Roles on Portal

    Hi,
    In one of our requirement, Business needs to set up such that client should be able to have web based access to R/3 Transaction through Portal.
    We can achieve that by creating system in portal and create Transaction iview with required T-code of R/3.
    Whats wrong if we can define roles in ABAP system for a user with full hierirachy and import those ABAP roles into portals.and through portal we can give unified web based access to imported roles?
    Does both the possibilities accomplish our need?what are main gaps between these two methods?
    I want to go by Import method,Any suggestions please?
    Cheers
    Rani

    Hi Michael,
      I agree with you that the ABAP role has a complicated menu structure and uploading has to be done at regular basis.
    Is there any mechanism through which any change in ABAP role structure in R/3 reflects in portal exactly so that there is no need of regular uploading?
    If not?So in which business scenario uploading of ABAP roles into portals are helpful?whats the use?
    Coming back to your second solution
    It is much easier to have one transaction iView that starts transaction SMEN, which presents the user's full SAP menu in a single screen
    But about about a user if he wants to navigate from this transaction SMEN to another transactions to which he is authorised to(R/3 Back-end)through this single Transaction iview.
    In other words if we want to have access to 5 transaction iviews in R/3,do we need to create 5 corresponding transaction iviews in portals?How to achieve this requirement in a better way?
    Waiting for you Reply
    Bye and have a Nice Day

  • Is there a way to automatically map CRM Roles to Portal Roles

    <b>Scenario:</b>
    When a new user registers on our portal he is assigned a CRM Role, however, he still needs to be assigned a Portal Role. Since we will have many users registering through our portal we do not want to assign roles to users manually. We want this to be an automated process, which requires almost no administration after the initial configuration.
    <b>Solution we are looking for:</b>
    Ideally we would like to do some configuration on the Portal side that would some how pull roles from CRM user store and map them on to appropriate Portal roles. In our case the reverse would also be ok as well, i.e. we do some configuration on the CRM side that would push the appropriate role to the Portal and do the Portal Role assignment.
    Does anyone know how to do this? I am very new to portals so a detailed explanation would be very helpful.
    Thanks for all the help!
    Muhammad Osman Yousuf

    No, the portal role will not be the same for the same CRM Role.
    So for example...
    On the CRM side we have CRM_ROLE_A, CRM_ROLE_B, and CRM_ROLE_C and on the Portal sider we have PORTAL_ROLE_A and PORTAL_ROLE_B.
    All mappings given are possible...
    CRM_ROLE_A = PORTAL_ROLE_A
    CRM_ROLE_B = PORTAL_ROLE_A and PORTAL_ROLE_B
    CRM_ROLE_C = PORTAL_ROLE_B
    The solution you mentioned, will it work with the above mappings?
    Thanks for all the help!

  • Import  oracle forms into portal

    Can anyone please give me some pointers in importing forms created by orcale forms into portal?

    There is no direct way to import your Oracle Forms into Oracle Portal, as the Forms within our Portletbuilder components are of a smaller, simpler functionality set than that provided within Oracle Forms.
    What I would recommend is to invoke your Oracle Forms from Portal by integrating Forms with Oracle Single-Sign-On (SSO). Integration of Oracle Forms with Oracle SSO is described in Chapter 5 of the Oracle9iAS Forms Services Deployment Guide, available here on OTN:
    http://otn.oracle.com/products/forms/pdf/B10170_01.pdf
    Hope this helps.

  • Unhandled exception for uploading BW roles into portal

    Hi experts:
    I  got the following warning in the log viewer when I uploade 2 BW roles, ZB_SAP_BW_DEVELOPER
    ZB_SAP_BW_WEB_ADMINISTRATOR, into portal (7.3). They are copies of the standard SAP roles.  I succcessfully uploaded other BI roles. These are the only ones that can not be uploaded. There is no error on the portal. Upload completed 100% but these 2 roles are not in the uploaded role list.  I checked sm12 and they are not locked. Wonder if anyone has had the same issue and solution?

  • Atch import of Backend roles into Portal  7.3 ehp1

    Hi,
    We have 150 roles we need to import to our portal from our BW backend. Does anyone know a way to import a batch of roles with user assignment ticked from a text file ?
    We can used the tools in the content admin and enter Z* but this brings in too many roles.
    Thanks
    Jim

    Hey Jim,
    There may not be a single standard program or transaction for mass update/upload of roles. We had to develop a Z-program for a similar functionality. You may use  BAPI_USER_CREATE, BAPI_USER_PROFILES_ASSIGN,  BAPI_TRANSACTION_COMMIT.
    hope this helps.
    Good Luck!

    Hi Abjuh
    I have recently setup the same and the CRM config guide is the most usefull one :

    I started with testing on documents for business partners because this is a standard supported flow. Then I extended to non-standard supported business transactions
    In brief, for business partners , in CRM system I
    -Setup the HTTP Service in the Internet Communication Manager
    -Maintaining WebDAV Hierarchies
    and in portal  I :
    --Setup the HTTP Data Source
    -Setup the Memory Cache ( choose existing one )
    -Created WebDAV Repository Manager
    -Created an Index for the CRM Document Repository
    good luck
    The only thing I didn't manage to get to work yet is displaying the source object link in the search results

    I have checked the "Note 1232674 - class java.io.IO exception during import" and set up the full control permissions to access "\sapmnt\" for the local (solman) user SAPServiceXO3 but it does not help.
    I've created a local "SAPServiceXO3" user in the server of Solman and have given to it highest permissions to the file share.  Has anybody any idea how to resolve the problem?

  • Erro when importing SAP roles into BO Edge XI 3.1

    Hello,
    I'm currently setting up the SAP Best Practices on a BO Edge XI 3.1 system (32 bit) and trying to link up with an SAP ECC 6 EHP 4 system (64-bit).
    When getting to the authorisation step I go to the CMC > Authentication > SAP > Role IMport.
    There I receive following error: 
    JCO.classInitialize(): Could not load middleware layer 'com.sap.mw.jco.rfc.MiddlewareRFC' JCO.nativeInit(): Could not initialize dynamic link library sapjcorfc. Found version "2.1.9 (2010-01-28)" but required version "2.1.8 (2006-12-11)".
    After closing and re-entering the same tab I receive following message: org.apache.jasper.JasperException
    I have not even the possibility to enter the roles manually. The system doesn't allow me.
    There is no specific SNC security set up for my SAP system.
    I have been able to connect to the logical system of SAP because when I updated on the tab: "Entitlement Systems" it proposed my logical system name that I created in SAP.
    As I found on another SAP forum the version 2.1.9 should also be the good version.
    Can someone help me out with this one (does anyone has still the older SAP Java connector version 2.1.8)?
    thanks in advance
    Thierry

    Hello,
    That's what i did but didn't help.
    I finally managed to find the problem. I had also to install a file named librfc32.dll in the same directory. When installing the necessary files apparently the version of this file librfc32.dll was not the correct one because it didn't match with the version that is installed together with the Sap gui (I presume). So by re-installing the former version of this file librfc32.dll it finally worked.
    thanks anyway

    Install the 32bit version of the Java connector. BOBJ is 32bit so even on 64bit Windows you need the 32bit version of the Java Connector.
