Changing Portal Role after the status change of user status at the CRM end.

Hi,
I have Portal with Java database as the default and CRM is connected to it using SSO.The database in both the case in separate.The users that are created in Portal will have a BP status in CRM sytsem.
Now my requirement is that if the status of the BP gets changed at the backend simultaneoulsy its Portal role should also gets changed.How shall i facilitate this procedure of changing the Portal Role?
Is there any RFC ,BAPi or Webservices required for this?
Regards,
Amarys
Edited by: amarys on Sep 13, 2011 11:20 AM

Hello,
Since the status has no number it will appear under statuses W/O number bottom right in status overview window.
These status will appear as additional text beside current user status. For example if user staus is BUG and status without number is DFL and sets when deletion flag is set and gets deleted when it is revoked than user status will appear as
BUG DFL -
Deletion flag set.
BUG -
When deletion flag revoked.
You have to live with it. I don't think there is a way out for that.
Thanks

Balu,
Well this issue has been discussed many a times in forums. You would have to point your data source to ABAP system.
Check this thread in [here|J2EE Failed to start , after changing UME datasource;.
Good Luck!

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

Scenario:
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.
Solution we are looking for:
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!

J2EE roles vs Portal roles vs ABAP roles

(I also posted this on portal implementation, but i hope i receive more reactions here )
Dear all,
I have a question about the information on the following link:
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw2004s/helpdata/en/4c/6c0f40763f1e07e10000000a1550b0/content.htm
It says the following:
"These functions are intended to assign users and their assigned portal roles a corresponding role in the SAP System. This corresponding role (authorization role) contains the authorizations needed to execute certain functions from the portal."
1. These "...certain functions..." they talk about, can someome give an example of these functions?
2. Is it possible for example to create a role in the portal that gives a user authorisation for starting transaction SE80 in the backend system? Without making the role in the backend first and uploading it to the portal.
3. It's also possible to upload ABAP roles to the portal. Is the main reason for this that users can see their SAP menu (or part of it) in the portal? Or does this have other advantages too?
4. I'm very confused about the relation between J2EE roles, portal roles and ABAP roles. Is it possible to manage the roles for a user in one place, without having to do certain actions in the portal AND the backend system?
From what I've read on help.sap.com, you always need to do certain actions in both places.
A possible approach is the following (from what i know): Creation of roles in the R/3 system, without assigning to users. From a webdynpro application, a user can then be created and roles can be assigned: portal roles (via some API) and R/3 roles (via BAPIs).
I hope someone can give a bit information on this issue. I've done alot of reading on help.sap.com, but it's still an abstract issue for me.
Kind regards,
Joren

Hi Jorem
Re: point 3. I don't build portal roles through this mechanism as I don't believe in replicating the SAP easy access menu inside the portal. If there are some specific functions (transactions) that I want to run inside the portal, then I might use this mechanism to build the iViews once. I would rather start an iView that runs transaction SMEN and let the user see their regular easy access menu.
Please note that the speed of executing transactions in the portal isn't a function of the portal, but the fact that you are using ITS, for example, to web enable the transaction...
Re: point 4. Groups are a UME concept. They have nothign to do with ABAP groups. They can be created directly in UME through user administration functions, or they can be created in the LDAP and then they are visible in the portal. If the UME points to an ABAP system, then the ABAP roles are autoamtcially visible as UME groups. Groups created in the UME need to have the members assigned through user admin functions of the Java engine. Groups stored in LDAP are maintained using LDAP admin tools. There are upload utilities that allow you to maintain LDAP users and groups through text files. Google LDIF for more details.
Roles on the portal need to be built in the portal contetn directory. As Michael mentioned, this can be automated by the use of the role upload function built into the portal.

Assigning Portal Roles

Hi All,
We have installed EP 7.0. The problem we are facing is : The "Portal Content" folder is not displayed under the "Browse Category" of content administration & system administration.
Why is it so? Do we need to add some other portal Roles to the user? If so.., which role we should add?
Also we are trying to add the portal role ID
" com.sap.pct.pdk.JavaDeveloper". But when we search for this role , we could not found this role. Whether the role has been renamed?
Kindly provide your suggestion on the above queries.
Regards,
Eben.

Abap+java stack, users not mapping to portal role.

We have the ABAP+java add-on install.
The UME is by default ABAP engine.
From Portal:
1 I create a portal user, it ALWAYS creates ABAP user in ABAP stack of WAS.
2. I create a portal role, it creates a role in the Portal.
3. When I assign the user this portal role,
having worksets and pages,
I get no pages or worksets shown in the portal page as soon
user logs in.
Can you help configure this so that I could see the pages and iviews inside this workset when user logs in.
Thanks a lot.
PS: posted this in webdynpro-ABAP. no reply came. Sorry to double post.

Hi Mike,
can you check into your WorkSet (or Pages) if you have setting up the Entry Point flag?

How do you test portal roles and/or ESS roles if testid is not in LDAP?

We have a process but it is hard to maintain and not very secure. I was wondering how other Security Admins solve this problem.
For examplle, we have users who use ESS, MSS, Adobe Forms and a few other portal roles. And, all of them are using the LDAP to authenticate users.
Our Basis guys have created test ids in the Portal but they need to be asisgned directly to a pernr (on Infotype 0105) in order to obtain the right information in the portal.
I'm curious as to how others maintain this process.
All suggestions and recommendations are welcome.
Thanks,
Penny

If the Basis team has created the test-id on the portal, assign the MSS/ESS role as per the business process
make sure to create the same userid on the backend system and assign the userid to a pernr
Assigning userid to PERNR lot of postings are available to do this please search.
Also I remember at one of my customers project the portal was configured to have "parameter setting" on the portal rather than the backend system.
summary: Userid - UME/LDAP ( Basis already created it in your case )
                              Portal roles ESS/MSS   - assigned to userid
                              ECC/HCM system roles -assigned to userid ( after PERNR is tied to userid)
                              Paremeter setting to be done on portal

Web/UME Services to fetch list of Portal Roles??

Hi All,
Are there any out of the box Web or UME services available which can fetch list of Portal Roles based on certain criteria.
Basically I am looking for a service that will fetch list of all Portal Roles (PCD & UME) and will take couple of input parameters, a Role Name/ID & the permission property "Role Assigner"
Thanks
Sandip

Thanks for your reply.
But I guess these forums shows how to retrieve roles & its sub-ordinates for a particular user. Where as I am trying to retrieve all PCD roles for which I have "Role Assigner" permission.
Basically I am building a delegated admin functionality on Portal using custom coding. It is the same as Portal out of box Del User Admin but I am not using it because of some other enhancements.
I will have many user admins and the roles they can assign to users are determined by the "Role Assigner" permission. So its like, User_Admin_RoleA has access to 5 Portal Roles, User_Admin_RoleB has access to some other 5 roles and so on.
So just wanted to know if there are standard Portal service (like we have for KM) available to do this.
Thanks
Sandip

Page w/3 Iviews will not display all iviews thru Portal Role?

Hello All,
I am having a problem with getting 2 of 3 iviews to display through my portal role(s). 1 of the iviews is a copy (generated thru the wizard with same properties) of the SAP Bank information iview and the other 2 I created in the KM content (1 is an image and the other is html). If I preview the page, I see all 3 of my iviews with no problem.
Just a little history, I created a new area page called payments which I tied Bank Information and w-4 to via config in the back end. I z copied all my resources and tied the correct PCD to them.
It almost seems that it is still calling the SAP delivered Bank information? But, I checked all my config and nothing that is configured is pointing to there iview/page?
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
ESS 1.0 - EP7.0
Thanks,
Mike

Hello Priya,
Thank you for getting back to me so quickly on this. I did create a z copy of the bank information service and called it z_employee_bank_us_serv05. I created the iview with application name 'per_bank_us' and as for the 'Application Parameters', I did not fill anything in which leads me to my next question.
I know when I create a new area, that I need to fill in the application parameters of the path to the 'Area group pages'
(Example: sap.xss.menuarea=Z_EMPLOYEE_BENEFITPAY_ERP2005&sap.xss.menuargrp=Z_SAPDEFAULTESS_ERP2005&sap.xss.menuhdr=SAPDEFAULT),
What would the verbage that would need to be added to the application parameters for this just to point to the service?

Pass parameter to all iViews in a portal role

Hi,
we have a portal role containing several iViews for ABAP Web Dynpro applications. Now we want to assign the parameter sap-wd-lightspeed=X to all these applications. Is it possible to do this in the portal application and can the customer set it off if they want to?
One idea is to define a dummy iView with this parameter set in property Application Parameters, and define all iViews as delta-links of this dummy iView. But we have some iViews which need their one Application Parameters.
Thanks & regards,
Carlo

Hi Bies,
I hope you are calling the Webdynpro ABAP applications using AppIntegrator iview (com.sap.portal.appintegrator.sap.WebDynpro).
Application Name : ABAP application
Application Parameters:sap-wd-lightspeed=X

Mapping SRM Portal roles with SRM backend roles

Using ABAP as UME when we create a user in SRM backend and assign backend roles, then corresponding portal roles should also get assigned to the
user so that portal roles are not to be assigned separately by portal admin.
Currently for the requirement I followed the following steps:
1. To SAPJSF user in SRM backend assigned roles SAP_BC_JSF_COMMUNICATIONand SAP_BC_JSF_COMMUNICATION_RO.
2. Created a RFC SPML of type 'G'.
3. Activated UME-SPML connection in SPRO.
4. Then in PFCG for the role personalization assigned PCD path of portalrole.
But I am not able to achieve the requirement through the aforesaid steps.
Please Guide.
Regards,
Gagandeep.

If you are using ABAP persistency for UME your ABAP roles should appear in the UME as groups. Just assign the portal roles you need to your ABAP roles/groups. Thats it,
cheers

Report or ways to find who removed portal roles for an user id ?

Hi Experts,
Scenario: if admin removes super admin role or any other portal role for my id. is there any possibility to see who exactly deleted the roles for my id?
Many Thanks
Sekhar

HI,
as Anja wrote, this is not possible with a default installation of the SAP Portal.
What you can do is to provide role provisioning with IIDM, GRC or ABAP user store solution instead of giving the portal admin the permission to change role <-> user attribution.

How to transport Associated Group in a Portal Role?

Hi,
I created a portal role which is contained in a folder X under Portal Content. This portal role is associated with a particular ABAP menu-role by means of Assigned Groups. When I transported the folder X with all dependent objects from Dev to QA, the portal role appeared but the Assigned Groups is empty. Another words, the association between portal role and the ABAP menu-role could not be transported. How can Associated Groups in a Portal Role be transported?
Thank you in advance.
Best regards,
Zabrina

Hi,
I have tried to do it in two steps:
1. Export and import portal contents which include the whole structure with folders, roles and iviews under each role.
2. Export and import the same roles as user management data
The result from 1 was that the whole structure including the roles is imported; however none of the portal role contains the associated assigned group.
The result from 2 was that the UME roles with assigned group are imported as separat objects.
Now, the same role appears both as portal role without assigned group and the UME object with assigned group. But, there is no connection between 1 and 2. That means that I cannot use 2 anyway.
Is there any other way to do than to export 1 and manuelly modify 1 with assigned role once again after transport?
Thank you in advance for any helpful advice.
Best regards,
Zabrina
