2nd level navigation

Hi Community,
we have a fpn working here with RRA. Filter_id's are implemented in the consumer portal desktops. Navigation is built by roles
RoleA (Entry Point, Filter_id = A, Merge_id = x)
- RoleB(Entry Point, Filter_id = A, Merge_id = x)
- FolderA
- FolderB
- RoleC(Entry Point, Filter_id = A, Merge_id = x)
- FolderC
If i call a desktop which has no elements with the filter_id all entry points appear, which means 1st, 2nd level and detailed navigation (correctly). So i guess its no permission problem. But if i call a desktop with filter id "A" only first level appears.
I tried
- different merge id's to merge all under RoleA (e.g. RoleA merge_id = x, RoleBC merge_id = xd)
- not to filter second level
- defining folder as entry points and roles not
Someone knows how to merge and filter them correctly? Help please.
Thanks & Regards

Limited view on 2nd level Navigation Bar

Hi
Is there a way to assign permission on a page on the 2nd level navigation?
I explain:
First level has teh Entry Point "MY Work".
Second Level has the pages assigned to My Work
"Page A" "Page B" "Page C"
Currently, I assign My Work role to everyone, so they will view all 3 pages.
PROBLEM:... I want "Page C" to be under "My Work" BUT only be viewed by selected users.
Can this be done?
How else can I do this?
Help needed urgently!!
Appreciate any info
Thanx
RD

Hi RD,
two possibilities:
a) By merging roles (the standard way). See http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/53/89503ede925441e10000000a114084/frameset.htm for details. Experts would have roles "Everyone" as well as "Expert".
b) By delta links: You create a workset as entry point "MyWork" containing Pages A and B; this workset is assigned to Role Everyone. Than you create a Role "Expert", assign the workset "MyWork" as deltalink (already containing pages A and B), now adding page C. Experts would have Role "Expert" only.
Hope it helps

Merge - 2nd Level Navigation

Hi there
Would really appreciate it if someone out there can put me out my misery.
Here follows the problem ...
The requirement on this project is to have really fine control over which reports users are shown. To this end, reports (iviews) are assigned to roles. Users are then assigned to the relevant role to give them access to the required reports.
In terms of the menu structure, many roles make up a menu. In order to not display menu items to which a user has not been assigned, we have gone with the merging approach.
Anyone out there know how to merge on the second level of navigation?
R1 = required top level tab
R2A, R2B = required second level tabs
R3A1, R3A2, R2B1, R2B2 = required detailed navigation items, each with their own structures defined with worksets
At the moment, R2A and R2B are assigned as delta links to R1.
R3A1 and R3A2 have the same mergeID as R2A. R2A has the lowest merge priority.
Similarly, R3B1 and R3B2 have the same mergeID as R2B.
For now, the test user is assigned to all the roles above, just so that I can see if the merging works.
The theory goes that if this works, I can assign the user to the relevant R3? roles and they will then only see what they are supposed to see.
All I see however, is R1, with R2A and R2B on the second level, but none of the lower roles pull through to the detailed navigation.
If I set R2A and / or R2B to be entry points, then they show as a top level tab, and the R3B1 and R3B2 roles are merged correctly underneath.
If I make them not entry points, then I don't get any merging.
Any ideas ... anyone follow what I am saying ... very difficult to explain this in text without drawings
Cheers,
Andrew

Andrew, Steve and Selvaraj,
Here is my work around. It's not easy to maintain, but it fulfills the requirement..
We can only merge roles appropriately in the 1st level, when we make them entry points right? If we add them to another role as delta link, whether they have inner role or not they see the roles content. Also we dont want their content to be seen in the second level.
My solution is again merging them in the first level and make them entry points with lower merge priority then our original entry point. However add our second level roles one folder with the same name and merge them with the 1st level role with the same id and make entry point.
The result is
My job
---My applications
App 1
App 2
Now the roles
roleMyApps : mergeID=mergeApps Entry point, priority:1
roleSalesPerson mergeID=mergeApps Entry point, priority:5, containing a folder named (my applications) * its the trick, and under it your original content.
roleFinancePerson mergeID=mergeApps Entry point, priority:5, containing a folder named (my applications) *, and under it your original content.
You can also use worksets rather then folders but I didn't try it.
Let me know if it helps, and reward helpful answers.

Help: How to make the top level navigation into vertical at the left panel

We have a need to change the top-level and 2nd-level navigation bars (horizontal)
into the nodes on the left navigation panel (vertical).
We find some way but it is a very extensive job.
Is there any way to do it quickly?
Thanks a lot! Points guaranteed.

Hi,
Try to develop your own menu by using Navigation Tag Libraries. Check this link :

Problem in second level navigation for some users.

Hello friends,
We have a group with few users, we have assigned certain roles to that group, all the roles are visible to all but the order of second level navigatin has changed for some users and not for all. Please suggest some solution.
Thanks,
Mitts

Hi Mittal,
Is there any merging of roles going on?
When you assign new roles, does the 2nd level navigation contain the same nodes but in a different order, or are there additional nodes added?
Perhaps you can explain in more detail the set up.

Configuration Detailed Level Navigation

Hi guys,
Does anyone know if it's possible to replace the words "Detailed Navigation" of the Tray's header to the name of a workset/folder that is at the 2nd-level navigation? (through configuration at portal)

Yes, it is possible !
From the 'Content Administration' ->Portal Catalog->Portal Content ->Portal Users ->Standard Portal Users ->Default Framework Page ->Desktop Innerpage ->Detailed Naviagtion iView.
Replace the text 'Detailed Navigation' against the property 'Name'. Save the changes.
Hope this helps !

2nd level padding

Hi guys,
Anyone knows where to configure and set the padding for the tabs on the 2nd-level navigation? I can see tat the padding done for 1st-level navigation is at System Admin > Portal Display > Top Level Navigation but not for 2nd-level.

Hi Boopolan,
I already have a 2nd-level navigation at the Top level Navigation and looking for where to configure the space between the tabs at the 2nd-level.

Portal 2 level navigation prob.

NEVERMIND!! I have the sollution!! Tnx anyway
I have made some url iviews. iview1, iview2 and iview3. I have attached this to a workset folder. So i made an workset and folders in it. So workset1 have folder1 with iview1,2,3 and i have another folder in the same workset, called folder2 with only iview1.
I have assigned this workset to 2 roles, roleA and rolB. roleA can see both folders with the content and roleB can only see folder2 with it's content.
In the portal i can see the roles(A,B), but in the second level navigation i see the worksets name. I want the folder name in there, how can i get that?! I want the folder name in the second level navigation and the content of the folder in the detailed navigation...
Tnx!
RoleA (<--top level navigation)
-workset1 (<-- this is now @ second level navigation)
--folder1 (<- this shoulde be @ second level navigation)
---iview1
---iview2
---iview3
--folder2(<- this shoulde be @ second level navigation)
---iview1
---iview1
---iview2
---iview3

Hello,
Get rid of your current Workset(s), and just Convert your folders to Worksets. This way you will get your new Worksets in the 2nd level navigation, and their content in the detail navigation. In other words, Create a structure like shown below:
RoleA (<--top level navigation)
-workset1 (<--this will be shown on second level navigation)
--iview1
--iview2
--iview3
-workset2(<- this will be shown on second level navigation)
---iview1
---iview1
---iview2
---iview3
Hope this helps,

How to Display Detailed navigation passing Top level navigation node name

Hi All,
I have prepared a DLN par file but unfortunatly my requirement is such that I need to pass one of the toplevel node name as input parameter and that should display the corresponding DLN which is from 3rd level.
I have checked in sdn for passing a value to the navigation tag lib which will consider it as a selectednode but could find none.
Can some body suggest me how to acheive this.
Thanks in Advance.
Sai Krishna. K

Hi Kiran,
Thanks for your Reply..
Following is my Scenario:
I use 2 same versions of portals connected via federated portal concept.
I have my detailed navigation par file in portal2 and was calling it from portal1 from a iview.
Since I am not physically navigating in portal2(which mean there is no selected node to iterate ), when I call that iview in portal1 it is picking up only 1st node in top level navigation.
So i need to pass "My reports" (as 1st level) & "India" (as 2nd level) as parameters such that it gets only its DTN at all times from 3rd level.
Hope you understand my scenario, below is my iteration code logic.
<div id="myslidemenu" class="jqueryslidemenu">
<ul>
     <nav:iterateSelectedNavNodesLevel level="<%=START_LEVEL%>">
     <%-- the 'currentDepth' attribute provides the byte value of the current level --%>
    <nav:recurseNavNodeChildren currentDepth="depth">
         <% current = start + depth.intValue() - 1; %>
         <%=writeClosingTags(last - current)%>
         <%
        last = current;
        %>
        <%-- we want to distinguish between folder and leaf nodes so we can use different graphics --%>
          <%-- complete the html syntax for the 'class' attribute pass it as an anchor attribute--%>
          <li><nav:navNodeAnchor navigationMethod="byURL" />
          <%-- checks for additional navigation level and the appropriate html tags to accomodate them --%>
        <nav:ifNextRecursionDepthWillIncrease>
            <ul>
        </nav:ifNextRecursionDepthWillIncrease>
        <nav:ifNextRecursionDepthWillNotChange>
            </li>
        </nav:ifNextRecursionDepthWillNotChange>
    </nav:recurseNavNodeChildren>
    <%=writeClosingTags(last - start)%>
    <% last = start; %>
</nav:iterateSelectedNavNodesLevel>
</ul>
</div>
As per the passing parameter concept please explain me a bit more clear with step by step procedure.
<b>Here if not passing parameters, providing static values will also do for my requirement.</b>
Many Thanks,
Sai Krishna.

Worksets not visible in the top level navigation

Hi all,
I installed ESS business package and.ESS 600 sp08.Everything is fine but the worksets of the ESS role are not coming in the top level navigation (2nd level).They are visible in the detailed navigation.
I checked the option in the worksets .
the property invisible in navaigation area .It is set to No.So no issues.
Still it is not visible
Any clues please.
Thanx and Regards,
rajesh

Hi,
As Rightly said
1) First copy ESS folder created in "Content provided by SAP" under "Portal Content".
2) Copy standard ESS Role for u r customization
3) Open Custom Role "Employee Self Service"
4) Property Category : Navigation
5) Check Entry Point property
It shuld be NO for Role but It shuld be YES for Workset ESS under it as per standard then Its Fine
6) Then Assign this role to u r User thru UserAdmin
7) Refresh
It shuld work !!!!

Link between Delivery Header & Sales Order Item for extraction to 2nd level

Hi Guys ,
I am having a requirement that need to pull the following data to 2nd level DSO
1. Delivery Header Data
2. Sales Order Item data. ( Sales Document, Item, Item RDD, Material)
So I am planning create a 2nd level DSO on top of Delivery header and need to pull the sales order ITEM level data ( Sales document , Order ITEM, ITEM RDD date , Material) through start routine u2026
How can I pull the Sales Order Item data through start routine? i.e I need the link between Delivery Header & Sales Order Item Data .
or I need the link between LIKP ( Delivery Header) Vs VBAP ( Sales Document Item).
Thanks

or I need the link between LIKP ( Delivery Header) Vs VBAP ( Sales Document Item).

Hi Krish,
You can use VBLEN (Sales Document) to link Delivery header DS (2LIS_12_VCHDR) and Delivery item DS (2LIS_12_VCITM). Now In delivery item DS (2LIS_12_VCITM) you have VGBEL (Reference doc.) and VGPOS (Reference item) which is nothing but sales order document number and sales item in Order item DS (2LIS_11_VAITM) .
So you need to link in above way to get other values in your DSO.
It is proven method.
Thanks,
Uday Shankar.

Show a menu of roles in the Top Level Navigation

Hello,
Imagine a scenario where a user has many roles assigned to him (say 40 roles). In that case the user will have 40 tabs in the first level of the top level navigation and by default a horizontal scroller appears on the right part of the screen clicking on which the roles will scroll horizontally. If the user has to go to the 40th role he has to click quite a lot.
Is it possible to have a menu option clciking on which we get the all the list of roles in the top level navigation in a vertical list and we can directly jump to any role clicking on the entry in the list ?
Something like what we get in a tab strip in Web Dynpro.
Thanks in advance for your valuable inputs.

Hi,
Yes it is possible to have menus as you wish .
Look at the following links

You need to work on navigation tag libraries to extend number of levels .
The above inks helps you only for single level of navigation.

Top Level Navigation - Design bar borders

SAP EP 6.0 SP9 on NW04
We're using the top level navigation iview (TLN) out-of-the box and have configured the look and feel of TLN using the Theme Editor so that it follows the customer's corporate identity.
However, we cannot remove the two white vertical borders around the design bar in top level navigation or change the color to the same color as the top level navigation. It is only possible for us to change the background color of the design bar but not the color of the design bar border. The marketing department thinks this is a huge issue, which must be fixed.
We're almost certain that the problem cannot be solved by configuring the Theme Editor.
Does anybody know whether it is easy to modify the code or css files to change the white borders of the design bar? Any idea of what is the best approach?
Best regards
Peter
Can

Hi,
I have similar problem but there is no "Display of Design Bar Container" option in the Top Level Navigation section of the Theme editor.
Thanks,
MM

Top Level Navigation jumps to wrong workset

Hi,
In our portal (SP15), rather than loading the first page/iview of each workset in the top level navigation, we wanted a starter page that said something like 'click a menu item to continue'. To achieve this, I created the relevant URL iview and added it (delta-link) to each workset that appeared in the TLN. I then changed the properties of the iview so that it was Invisible in the Navigation AND Default Entry for Folder. So now when you click on a TLN node, the iview appears but doesn't show in the menu.
However, this has created some strange behaviour. Once a node on the TLN has been selected that points to proper page or iview (i.e. one that appears in the navigation), if you then click on any workset on the second level (first level ones are ok), the TLN "jumps" back to the node which has the page/iview - but still shows the starter page iview. This means that users can't access any workset on the second level, except the first one to be displayed (i.e. when you have several nested worksets in a workset).
Can anyone explain why this is happening? The problem only occurs when the starter iview is both Invisible in the Navigation AND Default Entry for the Folder. Is this expected behaviour (and if so, why?) or is it a bug? Is there another way to achieve what we want?
Many thanks
Jane

If I do that, the iview does not appear because I already have an Entry Point above that level (i.e. the Workset). Entry Point as Yes only sets the initial navigation node, it doesn't force an iview to appear. (or at least this is what my testing has shown).
We may have to rethink how we can do this - does anyone know of a way to stop the first iview/page loading in every TLN node, and instead just showing the portal background?
Many thanks
Jane
