Acess CRM via SAP Portals

Hi,
Can somebody tell me if i will need of a CRM licence to acess through an iview of sap portals to the data of my Business Partners?
Thanks in advance,
Hugo.

Hi Hugo,
On the portal you will create users, these users will be mapped to CRM users. You can map multiple portal users to different CRM users or to a generic user. So initially you need to have licence for CRM user when you define CRM system on portal and when mapping the users.
But you can create any number of users on portal and map all these portal users to a generic CRM user. For this you dont need any additional licence.
Hope it helps.

Karthik.

Organization announcements Using CRM and SAP portal

Dear Gurus,
I am trying to build functionality for an organization to do their announcements using CRM 7.0, Once the announcement is published it should be visible on the SAP Portal. I am planning to do like this:
1) Create a campaign using mail form (Announcement content) and target group
2) Select the communication method as e-mail and I have done settings in SPRO to create the activity for an outgoing mail
3) Release the campaign and execute the campaign
4) Upon execution the CRM system will create the activity for an outgoing email (announcement)
4) Create an iView in portal
5) Pull the activities created on CRM and display on the portal iView
My questions are:
1) Is there any standard iView to do this
2) Is there any other standard functionality available to do this announcement using CRM and Portal
3) What are the lining table between Campaign activity and mail forms (e-mail content for announcement) - When I go activity search on CRM WEB UI I can see these activities and also I can see these activities on CRMD_orderadm_h, but unable to get the link tables between this activity and outgoing mail forms.
Thank you in advance and appreciate your help.

Can the KM be accessed by another non-sap portal?

Company has portals based on Vignette.
Also has SAP CRM, where a catalog is based in KM.
Can the Vignette portal or Vignette Content Management System connect to KM?
Can any other CMS's connect to KM?
I would ask on a Vignette forum, but I haven't found one yet.
Thanks!

Hi Eric,
>> I know this isn't the ideal place to ask a Vignette question...
You may feel free to do so.
But the answer is:
The SAP Portal can access Vignette through iViews, KM in the Portal offers an API (the Repository Framework API) to which Vignette could connect or via which you could connect Vignette and this would e.g. make Vignette searchable trough the SAP Portal.
You see the tendency, right?
If Vignette wants to search (and before this they will have to index and crawl) KM repositories, the connectivity question lies on Vignette's side.

Karsten

Crm via e-mail toolset

Hi,
Currently we are implementing crm & adobe interactive form integration scenario. What we are expecting; when user presses submit via e-mail button on the form, the xml file which is attached to e-mail has to be processed by CRM. We have read presentations and guides about crm via e-mail toolset and done all the customizing.
What is missing for us when we send this xml file to crm inbound processing what should be triggered at CRM side? All the E2C configuration is done.
We also configured inbound processing so50 and set as exit name CL_FP_INBOUND_HANDLER. But in this case system expects from us pdf file not xml as shown in presentations of SAP.
Thanks,

Well, let me go into more detail. The twitter e-mail said "did you see this tweet about you?" and provided a bitly. I copied and pasted the bitly addy in my browser and up popped a "twitter" log-in site, asking for mt twitter ID and password. I noticed two odd things about the site: the web addy had a "http" instead of a "https" and the twitter bird icon looked off. I never logged on and reported the phishing to Twitter.
I'm pretty sure it was a phishing site, but I'm just worried a hacker might have somehow got into my Mac. I know it's an Apple computer and there haven't been any real problems with attacks on OS systems. Still, I somewhat concerned.

R/3 Secure Store and Forward, while using SAP portal for SSO

Hello,
We are using SAP Portal UME for authentication, then SAP SSO tickets to log into the SAP R/3 system. Initially we decided that the end users would have a "disabled password" so that they must use the portal authentication mechanism to get into R/3 and therefore could not log in straight to R/3 system via SAP GUI.
All was working fine until during integration testing when someone tried to use the electronic signature function on a QM t-code (QA11) that prompted for an e-sig. Since local passwords have been disabled, the user could not execute the e-sig.
We do not want to activate local R/3 passwords for the users. Can anyone give some advice or a best practice regarding how to set up electronic sigs in R/3 while using an external authentication source? FYI, we are also trying to avoid using the LDAP connector from R/3 to our LDAP.
Please comment for any clarity needed or comments,
Thanks in advance,
Ryan

Good point - but I'm afraid of not knowning an instant answer.
Well, theoretically one could make use of the fact that an NWAS ABAP can act as http client (submitting http requests to the NWAS Java to validate logon data); but that's just a rough idea.

SAP PORTAL Time-Out Settings / BO iView Reports..?

We have created BO object-specific iView requests in SAP PORTAL based on Ingo's posting....
SAP BusinessObjects Enterprise & SAP Enterprise Portal - Part 3 of 4
Currently, just posting some small CR4E and Analysis for Office (*Design Studio will be added in a few months) report objects that are based on BW queries - and response time is a few seconds.
However, long-term as our BW grows - and the volume of data/periods expands we may see some reduction in the performance of these reports, and they make take a few-minutes to return data.
The SAP Portal team already have an issue with an ECC / T-Code report (*no Business Objects involved) which runs over 100 seconds - and hits a Portal time-out....and are wondering if we would hit the same issue if a CR4E within the Portal ran longer than 100 seconds...?
I think the answer is "NO", the Portal time-out would not apply in that scenario. My assumption is that in our solution-path, the Portal's 100 second time-out rule would ONLY apply to the process of the Portal invoking the iView request - and opening the frame for the CR4E content.
Once the frame is open - and the RPT / Prompt-Screen is loaded the Portal time-out is "happy".
After that iView -> BO frame is established....so, even if the CR4E & BW Query took more than 100 Seconds to return/display the data - the SAP Portal would not time-out - as all of that activity is actually taking place at the BOE Platform layer within the frame (and using the time-out settings at the BOE level).
Can anyone confirm that my assumptions are correct, or explain where the assumption is wrong..?
Thanks in advance...!

In our scenario, the SAP PORTAL has a 100 second time-out, but the Business Objects platform where the CR4E content is hosted has a 600 second time-out for "View on Demand" reporting.
When the SAP PORTAL opens the iView connection, it is opening the CR4E content in a frame on the Portal. Prompts are entered - and the RPT execution begins on the BOE platform.
There is a "spinning-wheel" displayed from the BOE platform, and if run in BO LaunchPad it could run for up to 600 seconds before a time-out occured.
When it is presented in SAP PORTAL via iView connection - does that "spinning-wheel" from BOE Platform provide enough of a "heartbeat" to let the PORTAL know not to drop the connection at 100 seconds....?
My reasoning is that SAP PORTAL should be opening the BOE content with the same rules that apply when the report is opening in the BO LaunchPad.
We are going to create a "SLOW" report in CR4E (*Lots of charts & sub-reports) to test/compare LaunchPad and Portal display of the same report.

SAP Portal accunts with special characters fail on reconcile

We connect to the SAP Portal System via the com.waveset.adapter.SAPPortalResourceAdapter in an IDM 8.0.0.5 system.
On the SAP side the IDMService.par is running.
When we do a reconcile we fail with an error message.
We activated the error logging on SAP system and the logfile on SAP and IDM reads like this:
#com.sap.portal.idm_logger#sap.com/irj#com.sap.portal.idm_logger
#CPIC_IDM_EP#
#Info##Plain###got user with uniqueId USER.PRIVATE_DATASOURCE.un:kÃ¶hler#
It looks very much like a character set problem but in which system?
Does anyone have a hint for me on how to configure SAP so that we get:
- more detailed information on the root cause of the problem. e.g. enable a more detailed logging on SAP*
- SAP to send UTF-8 encoded data only.
Does anybody had a problem like this before? It would help if we would know that we are not alone :-)
Any help is very much apprechated !

We got an E-Fix and its working now.

Advantages of BW Query in SAP Portal when compared to WEB BEx Analyzer

Hi
What are the advantages of having a BW Query in SAP Portal when compared to WEB BEx Analyzer
I had to presention to higher managers of having a SAPPortal for BW report that WEB BEx Analyzer
can any one please update me with few points (10-20) that will be useful for my presentation
screen to geethikakrishna->gmail
Thanks in advance

Hi Krishna ,
I think you should highlight the portal role in presentation
Now a days all organizations using sap portal as their user interface. We can login portal once and we can get all the information from bw,crm...sap systems and non sap systems.
so no need to login each and every system individually.
The portal offers a single point of access to SAP and non-SAP information sources, enterprise applications, information repositories, databases and services in and outside your organizationall integrated into a single user experience. It provides you the tools to manage this knowledge, to analyze and interrelate it, and to share and collaborate on the basis of it.
With its role-based content, and personalization features, the portal enables usersfrom employees and customers to partners and suppliersto focus exclusively on data relevant to daily decision-making processes
For all information on portals refer to help.sap.com->documentation->netweaver->Netweaver2004->English

Effect html code of sap portal

Hi all
Along with our web team I am looking into re-skining the SAP portal and was just wondering if there is a way of effecting the html code generated for each page of it. I know you can change the CSS tags, images via the theme editor etc but was wondering if it was possible to actually change the html code. i.e. have the ability to remove certain <table> tags or add new div tags and assign a class to them which could them be re-styled by adding aditional code to the CSS file. Basically the more that can be accessed the better so any help/advice in this area would be much appreciated.

HR Renewal Self Services Integration Issue with SAP Portal

Hi,
We are Implementing HR Renewal 2.0 FP1 and the Self-Services Landing Page to be launched from within SAP Portal.
I have imported the PFCG role ZSAP_EMPLOYEE_ESS_XX_UI5_1 into portal and assigned to the user. The End User read permission is provided.
We see the landing page with all lanes coming up fine when launched from portal. But subsequently when we click on the SAPUI5 delivered applications in the MY INFO Lane like Employee Profile, Salary Statement, Leave Application etc, they open from inside the portal in a new window via the below Standard Launchpad Start URL application

and getting the below error.

When transferring HR data from ECC to CRM via change pointers

When transferring HR data from ECC to CRM via change pointers ,certain data is getting earsed in CRM
paricularly the last name and first name of BUT000
Do you have any idea why this could be happening
Thanks in advance

Hi Kittu,
Change pointers. Change pointers are R/3 objects that mark changes to SAP master data. Change pointers are managed by mechanisms in a Shared Master Data (SMD) tool and are based on Change Document (CD) objects. CD objects record the changes occurring to master data at a field level. These changes are stored in tables CDHDR (header table) and CDPOS (detail table). ALE configuration provides a link between CD objects and change pointers. Internal mechanisms update tables BDCP and BDCPS, which host the change pointers. While CD objects are application-data-specific, the processing status of change pointers is message-type-specific. Also, the ALE change pointers are activated first at a general level and then at the message-type level.
use this links kittu.
