    Hi George
    On startup of the role an iview was called which opened a gif file stored in the KM. This iview wasn't added to any page so I basically did just that; added it to a page. Now the problem seems to have gone away!
    Thanks!

  • Problem with Back button in Top Level Navigation

    Hi all,
    We are facing a minor problem with the Back button in the Top Level Navigation in Portal. This button is present under the Roles and Worksets menu along with the History, Forward, and Add to Portal Favorites links.
    The problem is faced when we have some worksets under a single role. While browsing accross these worksets by randomly clicking on them, we wish to use the Back button as well to go back to the previous workset. But when we use the Back button, the Detailed Navigation panel in the last workset is not retrieved.
    I will explain with the System Administration Role. I open the worksets under this role in the following manner:
    First I open Transport;
    Next I open Portal Display;
    Next I open System Configuration;
    Now I wish to go back to Portal Display workset by clicking on the Back button. But when I do this, although the Portal Display workset opens up, but I cannot see the Detailed Navigation Panel. See the screenshot below:

    Please help me in solving this issue.

    I think I have found a resolution, although not very pleasant:

  • Tab in Top Level Navigation is not highlighted when clicked on

    Hi guys,
    We have 1 problem in EP 6.0:
    I create 1 iview(testiview), and attached to the role(testrole), assigned to 1 user, then login with that user. In top level navigation, i am able to see the role(testrole) in top level navigation, but after i clicked, the tab for this role is not highlighted, but the content of iview is displayed,
    Any one knows what happened?
    Thanks!
    Guo Feng

    Hi Guo
    You have created one role and added one iView under it.
    now can u tell which one you made as entry point.
    if Role is the entry point are you getting the iView link in the DTN ?
    If you made iView as entry point and then you r getting the content in content area and the iView link in the top.
    i think the second one happens...
    Check the role and iView properties .
    Make the Role as entry point..
    Cheers

  • Show/Hide tabs in top level navigation of a role based on assigned services

    Hi,
    I have an interesting requirement. I have created an overview page in abap web dynpro which has links to various services.
    Based on the r3 roles assigned to the user, we need to show/hide the services in the overview page and top level navigation.
    I can show/hide the views in the overview page but the links on top level navigation are created in the portal frontend by creating worksets, iviews, etc.
    Is there a way I can show or hide these worksets which are defined in the role on top level navigation?
    In a nutshell, can i update the visible/invisible property of a java workset from a call in abap web dynpro?
    Regards,
    Sumeet

    Please refer the framework page [http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw70/helpdata/en/02/c7918e9fca44519701c47028a053fd/content.htm|http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw70/helpdata/en/02/c7918e9fca44519701c47028a053fd/content.htm]
    What i meant was that you can do a custom TLN like this
    [http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nwce711core/helpdata/en/42/fd515a2aa95277e10000000a1553f7/content.htm|http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nwce711core/helpdata/en/42/fd515a2aa95277e10000000a1553f7/content.htm]
    Seems to me java/jsp is more appropriate than doing it via WDA.
    ANother way that you might look into this is Application integrator which again java programming effort needed.

  • Clear data bag, when change tab in top level navigation!?

    Hi, i had search the forum, but i don't find an answer!
    I have the following problem:
    We have to clear the client data bag (EPCM), when the user change the tab,
    but how can i do something, when the user change? Is there a event and i only must subscript on this event, or what can i do?
    I would be lucky with some ideas or a solution!
    Lars

    Hi Lars,
    IF u are using HTMLB tabstrip then there is event for tabitem change.
    For instance :
    <hbj:tabStrip
    id="myTabStrip1"
    bodyHeight="100"
    width="200"
    horizontalAlignment="CENTER"
    verticalAlignment="TOP"
    selection="3"
    tooltip="Tooltip for myTabStrip1"
    >
    <hbj:tabStripItem
    id="myTabStripItem1"
    index="1"
    height="80"
    width="160"
    onSelect="myTabStripItem1OnSelect"
    title="Tab 1"
    tooltip="My Tooltip for Tab 1"
    >
    <hbj:tabStripItemBody>
    <hbj:textView
    text="TextView on Tab 1"
    />
    </hbj:tabStripItemBody>
    </hbj:tabStripItem>
    <hbj:tabStripItem
    id="myTabStripItem2"
    index="2"
    height="80"
    width="160"
    onSelect="myTabStripItem2OnSelect"
    title="Tab 2"
    tooltip="My Tooltip for Tab 2"
    >
    <hbj:tabStripItemBody>
    <hbj:textView
    text="TextView on Tab 2"
    />
    </hbj:tabStripItemBody>
    </hbj:tabStripItem>
    So for the change in selection u can define an event and write your logic in this event handler in ur controller.
    check all the controls of tabstrip in below pdf

  • Problem with Signature tab drop down in Outlook for Mac 2011

    I am setting up Outlook 2011 on my mac and have run across a problem with the signatures that I have been unable to resolve.
    I have set up 2 signatures for my two different pop accounts and thought that if I defaulted them to their appropriate account they would automatically be seen in email when I had chosen the corresponding email account. I then discovered that it was not
    possible to do this in Outlook 2011 for Mac.
    So I selected NONE as the defaults for my two signatures, and thought I would be able to manually add the appropriate signature to each email as I compose or reply.  BUT NO!!!! THE PROBLEM LIES BELOW:
    The 2 signatures that I set up are visible in the drop down menu from the signature tab in an email, however they are greyed out and cannot be selected.  I have attempted selecting one of these signatures as the default, and whichever one
    I select dutifully appears when I compose a new email, but when I click on the drop down to change the signature, both are still greyed out.
    So effectively, I only have the option of one signature or none, despite being able to set up multiple signatures in my profile.
    Does anyone know why this is occurring and what the solution is?
    Thanking you in advance.

    Hi,
    Please remove the Signature and re-add it back to check whether the issue persists. We can follow the articles below to create signature in Outlook 2011 for Mac:
    How to create signature or customize it (add picture) in Outlook for Mac 2011

    If the new created Signature is still greyed out in your Outlook, please restart the Outlook client in safe mode to confirm if the issue is caused by any third-party add-ins.
    If the issue persists in Outlook safe mode, I suggest you ask a question in Outlook for Mac forum for further troubleshooting:

  • Problems with Forecast tab in Opportunities in BP for CRM 4.0 on EP 6.0

    hi everyone
    we are having a strange problem.
    we are implementing the BP for CRM 4.0 On EP 6.0 SP2.
    everything is working fine except the forecast tab under opportunities.
    here is the problem. we are able to view data i the forecast tab and can also modify the data but when we click save the changes do not get written back to the SEM planning cube which is feeding this area thur CRM online.
    can anyone help.
    we are able to write and change data from CRM online directly and can read the changed data thru the portal however it is not happening thru the portal.
    thanks

    Hi,
    what is the exact version of the CRM Business Package:
    -Business Package for mySAP CRM - Business Productivity Pack 60.1.2?
    -Business Package for mySAP CRM - Business Productivity Pack SAP R3 Integration 60.1?
    -Business Package for SAP CRM 4.0 60.2.3?
    If you are talking about the last one, there is a SP for it and it is located at the same place where you downloaded the Business Package.
    For you Sneak Peak, did you look at your log files for your MaxDB? It happened to me once, one of my log file was full and I did not set auto-backup or no backup on my log files.  The server would not come up.  I backed up the log file and created new data files.  The server came back up after this.
    Hope this helps

  • Top Level Navigation Manipulation in "Hosted Portal"

    We are in a position where we have to begin hosting additional content in our portal from a portal that is being decommissioned.
    The problem is we need to keep it seperate from the existing content from a user access point of view.
    While users can have access to roles from the existing content and from the soon to be "hosted" content, they have not to be seen in the portal at the same time.
    For example if the user accesses the portal with URL 1 they only see tabs in the top level navigation for the current content but if they access using URL 2 they only see tabs in the top level navigation for the "hosted" content.
    I know we can control most of the issues such hosting raises using URL Aliases in our Desktop Rules to display different desktops, but wanted to know if anyone knows of a simple way that this can be enforced in the standard top level navigation iView via either configuration or simple code change to prevent us having to develop our own TLN to cope with this.
    We are currently on EP7.0 SP13
    Thanks (and of course points) for any help you can offer.

    Hi Micheal,
    Thanks for your suggestions.
    We have managed to get halfway to our required solution with a very simple change to a copy of the standard top level navigation whereby we only process the PrintNavNodes method for iterations of the "initialNodes" which have the required node names - e.g.
    private void PrintNavNodes(IPortalComponentRequest request, IPortalComponentResponse response)
    for(Iterator it = initialNodes.iterator(); it.hasNext();)   {
    INavigationNode initialNode = (INavigationNode)it.next();
    // Start of Change - Portal Share Project
    String nodeName = initialNode.getName();
    if ( nodeName.endsWith("ccmaint_user")  ||  nodeName.endsWith("ccmaint_supervisor")  ) {
    // End of Change - Portal Share Project            
    firstContent = PrintNode(initialNode, request, response, 0);
    try {
    This effectively filters out the unwanted tabs in the desktop where this amended TLN is used. 
    This works fine where the tabs you want to see have sort priority putting them at the front of the list but leads to problems when used for the converse set of content as the desktop is still referring to the full "initialNodes" list and so while filtering at this level does render the TLN as required, it becomes unusable as the tab positions are still considered to be as they would be if you had not filtered any.
    For example:
    We have 5 tabs in total.  For URL 1 we wish to show only tabs 1 & 2.  For URL 2 we want tabs 3, 4 & 5.
    Using this method for URL 1 we are fine as Tabs 1 & 2 are in the correct positions but for URL 2 when the tabs are rendered they appear in positions 1, 2 & 3 as required but act somewhat as though they are still in positions 3, 4 & 5 (e.g. Select the first tab and the 3rd is highlighted and a page error occurs - "'children' is null or not an object").
    Not only this but the Inner Page still displays the content from the filtered tab 1 as opposed to tab 3.
    Can anyone advise a way we can get round these issues?
    Thanks
    Ian.
    P.S. Please excuse my naïvety in this area.

  • Can we control the top level navigation in portal from a java application

    Hello,
    I am having a scenario where User logged in to portal and assigned with 2 roles (HOME , ISA(Java application)). When user opened a form in ISA (Java application) and tried to enter the data in form and moved to another tab (e.g. HOME) in top level navigation.
    When user come back to ISA (Java application) TAB , we show the page where he left earlier. I would like to know if user click any other TAB in top level navigation (Role assigned to him) while working on a page in ISA(Java application) is there any way we can catch that event before he leaves from ISA (Java application JSP page) to other TAB?
    How can we control the top level navigation events in the portal from a java application .Since Top level navigation is seperate par file.
    Thanks,
    RN

    Dear Rajesh,
    Top Level and detailed navigation values comes with iteration in the respective par file.
    Please check the par file and based on the value (i.e tab name) selected, you can write your code.
    Best Regards

  • EP About top level navigation

    We are designing that many roles are assigned to one user.
    (about 7-8 roles per user)
    When many roles are assigned to the user, tabs in top level navigation bar can not be displayed without scroll horizontally.
    We want to display all roles at once, without scroll.
    To realize the above, roles must be displayed on 2 records
    in the one top level navigation bar.
    Is ther someone who knows whether top level navigation can
    be displayed at 2 records on a bar, or not.
    Any help or information would be appreciated.
    Thank you.

    Mizuka,
    first, you might want to reorganize your roles and possibly have a look at the "merging" feature.
    Next, you might change the portals theme to use a smaller font for the top level tabs.
    If both options are unsuitable, you can develop your own top level navigation component by writing some java code. Then you can make it look whatever you like to (and I mean it, it's extremely flexible, I did it early in the time of EP6 SP 0 ramp-up, but definitely takes some time).

  • Problem with WPC and Top Level Navigation

    Hi all...
    I have one problem. I'm using WPC and my role name is shown in Top Level Navigation (TLN).
    For example:
    Role name: Test
    navigation nodes: company, About Us, Finnancial, News...
    "Test" role is shown on TLN first level and the first level of navigation node is shown on TLN second level.
    How can I remove the role name from TLN first level? I already changed the entry point parameter to "No" however this case the navigation node disappear from TLN.
    tks

    Praveen,
    How can I set the "No" Entry Point parameter to my navigation nodes??
    In my role configuration I only changed the External Connector and Entry Point Parameters.
    Where can I set up the No entry point parameter for my navigation nodes?

    Hi,
    We have faced a similar problem earlier, one of the developers changed the property to 0. Luckily for us, one of the user id has got Content Administrator as the first tab, so we could change the iview template and got the TLN. Check this option.
    The following is a theoritical idea only, i have not implemented this
    Download "com.sap.portal.navigation.toplevel.par.bak" and change the code. Check out this link
    https://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/42/fd515a2aa95277e10000000a1553f7/content.htm
    You have to change the code as
    levels=2;
    before this line
    if(levels>0)
    { %>
    Take a backup of the existing TLN par and upload the edited one with the same name. Then try login and see whether you are able to get the contents, update the property back to 2.
    Note : try to upload the necessary jar files in NWDS.
