Adjusting portal theme of Web Dynpro ABAP application

Hi,
can the style of all UI elements in our Web Dynpro ABAP application changed in the style sheet editor of the portal?
Or shall we avoid some already in the application?
And can we also use the Eclipse Portal Editor to change the theme for our ABAP application in the portal?
Thanks, Regards
Susanne

Most all UI elements can be changed by the Theme Editor. Not all aspects of each UI element is customizable. You will need to look through the theme editor to see what all it supports.
You can use the Eclipse Portal Editor (unsupported by SAP) to change the them of WDA applications.

How to call custom themes for Web Dynpro ABAP Application?

Hi,
I need to change the appearance of Web Dynpro ABAP application. So far I followed below steps,
1.     Created theme folder u2018testngou2019 (SE80->MIME Repositoty -> SAP->PUBLIC->BC->UR->nw5->themes -> u2018testngou2019 ).
2.     used program BSP_UPDATE_MIMEREPOS to dowmloaod content of u2018sap_tradeshowu2019 (SE80->MIME Repositoty -> SAP->PUBLIC->BC->UR->nw5->themes -> sap_tradeshowu2019) to desktop.
3.     Modified the themes using Eclipse Theme Editor.
4.     used program BSP_UPDATE_MIMEREPOS to upload modified themes to MIME repository u2018testngou2019 (SE80->MIME Repositoty -> SAP->PUBLIC->BC->UR->nw5->themes -> u2018testngou2019) .
My current URL is like http://server.name:XXXX/sap/bc/webdynpro/sap/hrrcf_a_startpage_int_cand?sap-client=XXX.
Now I want to know how custom themes called for Web Dynpro ABAP Application.
Is my approach correct?
...Naddy

Hi Naddy,
What you used is one way and even I failed when tried that method,
Instead go to SE38 - WD_THEMES - and you need to upload the zip file and you need to follow a folder structure.
it is case sensitive, atleast the zip file.
Make a zip file by name "Project.zip" -
Create a Folder Project and have the below folder structure,
1 data - all the properties files and also the designinfo file, below is the code
2 themes - (to get all the files download the theme from portal and you will have all the folders)
   2.1 ur
     2.1.1 name of the theme
       2.1.1.1 common
       2.1.1.2 csf
       2.1.1.3 r
       2.1.1.4 ur - all the css files (would be good if you can get the files from the server.)
       2.1.1.5   WSRP
3 war - empty folder
*.designinfo
isVisible=true
version=7.0.14.1.0
isDefault=false
isSapDesign=false
designName=**** name of the theme
Once done create a zip file and click on Start Import and give the path and will ask for transport request, it will take a while to upload once done as mentioned in the use the parameter sap-ep-themeroot="path"
This will resolve the issue.
Cheers-

Using Portal Theme for a Web Dynpro ABAP Application

Hello everyone,
I've created a web-dynpro abap application that I display on one of my portal pages using a Web-dynpro iView.
Somehow, the WDA app never reads the portal theme properties and has the default SAP roadshow theme colors. I've tried almost everything including passing the theme as an application parameter using WDTHEMEROOT and WDFORCEEXTERNALSTYLESHEET params.
Documentation states that the application should automatically read the portal's theme, but it never does.
Interestingly, I have one more web-dynpro java application that works fine and uses the portal theme correctly.
Am I missing anything? Are there special considerations for WDA apps to adapt to the current portal theme?
Any ideas, suggestions, solutions would be greatly appreciated.

>Am I missing anything? Are there special considerations for WDA apps to adapt to the current portal theme?
What are the release and support package levels of both your ABAP system and your portal? If the ABAP AS has a later release or SP level than the portal, the Web Dynpro framework will always fall back to using the theme of the backend ABAP system. This is to protect the application rendering. Running with a theme (CSS and JavaScript) from an older release or support package level could cause the application to render incorrectly.

How to integrate backend web dynpro abap application in Portal 7.3?

Hello,
before Portal 7.3 I was able to integrate a web dynpro abap application as iView in the portal. Now I don't get the point on how to do it. I cannot find a "normal" iview that enables me to give the backend and the application name. The possibilty to create iView based on remote source looks strange because I don't want to upload the application I just want to do my normal user/pass mapping and show the applicaton via iView.
Somehow I don't get the point with the new version. Could someone give me a hint where to find more information regardings this problem`?
Thanks a lot,
Vanessa

Hi Vanessa,
Could someone tell me if I should see the SAP Web Dynpro for ABAP iView template in the long list of available templates when I create a new iView?
You will 'SAP Web Dynpro iView' option in the list while creating iview from template.Create and change the property platform to 'Web Dynpro for ABAP'.
Is it correct not to use the remote source option? I think yes because otherwise he would upload the app to the portal, if I am not wrong.
If i understood your question correct,then You can use this option as well to create iview.Atlast it wil create only iview for the application not the application itself in the portal.

Integrating Web Dynpro ABAP application in portal

Dear experts,
I created a Web Dynpro ABAP application. I need to Integrate it in portal and have to capture portal login id to my application.
Kindly guide me how to integrate WDA in portal and how to capture Portal Logon id in my application.
Thanks,
Kind Regards,
Ram

Hello ,
It is asking for SAP system user id and password becasue there is no SSO established between portal and the web dynpro system.
Now, either you can establish SSO between portal and the backend system by SAP Logon TIcket or user mapping.
SSO stands for single sign on.
SSO using SAP Logon Tickets :-
by using this technique you will be able to login into the backend by using SAP logon ticket
issued by the portal system. For this you need to import the .der certificate form the system administration ->system config -->
key ticket store. there download verify.der and upload it in the trusted system list in the backend in the trasaction strust_import.
here is link for this method.
http://wiki.sdn.sap.com/wiki/display/EP/LogonTickets,CertificatesandBackend+Certificates.
SSO using user mapping. :-
For this method you need to map the user in the portal to one user in the backend system.
You can do so by going to user administration in the portal there find the user id with which the user will login.
then go to the user mapping for system access tab there select the system from the dropdown and give user id and password
for the same system save it.
Now when you will login it wont ask for the user id and password.
And after this you can get the portal user id also in your web dynpro application.
Thanks

Web dynpro abap application on Portal does not work via internet access.

Dear All,
I have created a web dynpro abap application and deployed the same on Portal.
The issue I am facing is that the webdynpro application works fine when the end user logs into Portal from Local Network,
However when the Portal is accessed from outside the local N/W via Internet, Portal is working fine for other applications like ESS
but the web dynpro application dont work.
Is this some configuration issue on the portal / abap development or any workaround is possible.
Regards
Abhinav Dagar

Hi
Please try to use the [HTTP Watch 5.0 Basic |http://www.httpwatch.com/download/] tool to trace that WD Application link from the portal and you can easily find out the problem.

CRM2007 How to add a Web Dynpro ABAP application to a CRM business role

I am investigating CRM2007 UI framework and I cannot seem to find a way to add a custom made Web Dynpro ABAP Application (created in CRM 4.0) to a business role, or how to add a custom transaction created in classic ABAP (transaction created via se93, progam created via se38). Whatever I do, I only see BSP components. I am using transaction BSP_WD_CMPWB.
Next to this it seems you can add/integrate Visual Composer applications to (there is an entry in spro called "integration of the visual composer in BI"). However, I presume we first have to meet the requirements for the portal integration in SAP CRM 2007 as described in spro. If somebody knows how this works, that would be great!
kind regards
Angelique Heutinck

Hello Angelique,
It should be possible to call web dynpro applications from the L-shape menu of CRM UI (check transaction CRMC_UI_NBLINKS). As for the old GUI transactions, you can embedd them also via transaction launcher using CRMC_UI_NBLINKS (search for "transaction launcher" in this forum, there is plenty of information on it).

EREC: theme for Web Dynpro ABAP pages (external candidate)

Hello,
I have created a custom theme in the SAP Netweaver Portal for my customer and now I have the requirement to use the same theme for my stand-alone Web Dynpro ABAP applications (pages for the external candidate). Is it possible to use the same stylesheet as in the portal, without having to recreate a theme?
I tried several options, but none of them did work:
A. Downloading the portal theme as a ZIP file and then uploading it in ERP using the report BSP_UPDATE_MIMEREPOS (after unzipping) to a location /SAP/PUBLIC/BC/UR/nw5/themes/CUSTOM_THEME. After that, I call my application with the additional URL parameter sap-wd-themeroot=/SAP/PUBLIC/BC/UR/nw5/themes/CUSTOM_THEME but it does not work (the app is displayed with the default sap_tradeshow stylesheet)
B. I also tried calling my app using the URL parameter sap-cssurl=/SAP/PUBLIC/BC/UR/nw5/themes/CUSTOM_THEME but here again, it does not work (the app is displayed with the default sap_tradeshow stylesheet)
C. Downloading the portal theme as a ZIP file and then uploading it (zipped) using the report WD_THEMES, but here I receive the error "no themes found in the ZIP file". I have the same error if I upload only the ur.zip I receive from the portal (instead of uploading the whole *.zip file)
I checked the UR versions both in portal & ERP, and we had a lower version in the portal than in the ERP, so we upgraded the portal version according to SAP note 1446099. Now we have a higher version in the portal than in the ERP. We regenrated the portal theme and downloaded it again, but with the same result.
Does anyone have an idea what could be the solution to our problem?
Thanks in advance!

I would recommend to try another way. If it is possible to access any SAP Portal from outside you can use two URL Parameters to integrate the Portal style sheets in a standalone WDA application. The parameter sap-cssurl contains the absolute URL address to the style sheet and parameter sap-cssversion the current SAP Portal style sheet version. For all external facing scenarios it is important to use the whitelist mechanism to block unknown URLs.
Example
?sap-cssurl=http://myportal.myserver.com:50000/irj/portalapps/com.sap.portal.design.urdesigndata/themes/portal/mytheme/ur/ur_ie6.css
&sap-cssversion=7.11.5.20.0
I canu2019t recommend to raise manually the version number. You will not get an consistent system this way. The meta data (project.zip) are outdated and of course you will get an outdated theme.

I don't believe that your answer applies to Web Dynpro ABAP. Page with Flog Logic sounds like BSP. Please make sure you are posting about the correct technology.

Hi Gowtham.A,
Did you set up the system object in the System Landscape Directory on the portal? Then did you configure the webflow connector in the UWL Administration?
Please see the following help documentation:
For the setup in the Universal Worklist you will need the following:
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw70/helpdata/EN/e5/fc550f79ed4131a63c540cddbfe7be/content.htm
You will need this for the Abap Webdynpro Action Handlers setup...ensure you read the area about SWFVISU setup:

Integration a Web Dynpro ABAP application within one of my EP overview page

Hi Experts,
I've got an issue when integrating a Web Dynpro ABAP application within one of my EP overview pages.
We've implemented PLM using the Web Dynpro ABAP scenario for employees. Now Iu2019m trying to integrate this into the Employee Self-Service overview page. I've got no issue to make the icon and area title appears, but when I click on it I get a blank page with Error 404. However when clicking on the link in the navigation bar (Level 2) then I get the page fine. So it looks like EP is not able to integrate correctly the Web Dynpro ABAP into the overview page in EP. Is there any specific Resource configuration?
One more thing is that if I've implemented the same iView using Resources -> Services -> Sub Areas -> Areas everything works fine, but I receive two navigation Levels (Area Group contains the Area Link and when I click it brings me to Sub Area with the single Service Link) I want to avoid this double clicking, calling the application directly from Area Group -> Area link.
Anyone has ever come across that kind of issue? Has anyone ever integrated a WDA application directly into an overview page?

Hi,
We faced a similar problem with BSPs and had to change the definition of the area link type entry.
I am assuming you have set the area link type to WebDynpro for ABAP and the resource is calling an Iview/page that has the WD ABAP application configured.
To get around the error, change the Area Link type to Calls a Portal page and make sure the resource calls an Iview/Page that has the WD ABAP application configured.

Web Dynpro (ABAP) application in HCM

Hi,
I am working in SRM custom development in Web Dynpro (ABAP). I have to work now with HCM development.
Is it any specific method or procedure to develop/change the Web Dynpro (ABAP) application in HCM .I am new to HCM Functional.
Pl help me.
Thanks in advance.
sri

Hi,
In the HCM(Humaan Capital management) also there are the related FM ie BAPIs and also the corresponding BOR (business objects) where you can use them in the WDA.
Here the data is stored in Infotypes. Where all the historical records for each employee/organization etc are maintained.
It's better to have an idea on the HCM structure that would be enough in understanding the BAPIs etc.

Userid of a Portal-user in Web Dynpro ABAP

Dear colleagues,
we want to migrate our application from BSP to Web Dynpro ABAP and I'm looking for a procedure how I can get the userid of a Portal-user in Web Dynpro ABAP which is running inside an iView ?
In BSP I used iView application parameter user_id and in the BSP the event handler for data retrieval with:
userid = runtime->server->request->get_form_field( 'userid' ).
Found a lot of entries how to do it in Java but no one for WDA ?
Thanks in advance
Michael

Hi Michael,
Actualy it is not so trivial. You have some options:
1) In case user_id is parameter of iView you can read URL parameter like described here Webdynpro ABAP url-parameters
2) In case user_id is not iView parameter you can use usuall ABAP sy-uname system variable.
But pay attantion that it is not really EP user. Here we have 2 options: user mapping and SSO. In case of user mapping sy-uname will contain R/3 user which is mapped to EP user. In case of SSO sy-uname will contain same user name like in EP, because by using SSO user must ne the same on issuing and accepting systems.
