Applicable OSB service points to attach Work Managers

Question

Hi All,
Currently I have an OSB design as below:
I have 3 work managers each having a different fair share class as per their priorities.
I have a single HTTP Proxy service, which takes the hit from all source applications. Based on a DVM and message contents, the proxy determines the priority of the particular request message, and will accordingly route it to one of 3 HTTP proxies (Priority 1 HTTP Proxy, Priority 2 HTTP Proxy, Priority 3 HTTP Proxy). These 3 HTTP Proxy services will then forward the request further to other OSB and target appplication services.
On each of the 3 priority proxy services, I have assigned the appropriate work manager.
However, I am confused on whether to assign a work manager to the exposed HTTP Proxy or not. If I do assign a work manager, whether a fair share request class should be assigned or not. From what I read in oracle documentation, assigning a work manager without fair share class, will assign a fair share of 50 automatically.
What should be done to the exposed HTTP Proxy in order to achieve the prioritization of requests processing.

Hi,
as far as I know there is no standard way of doing this in CRM 7.0.
I imaging it would be possible to call an ERP smartform from CRM by :
- writing an RFC capable function module in ERP that wraps the call of the smartform and returns the generated PDF data.
- writing a function or method in CRM that calls the ERP function module and displays the returned data.
In the lead and opportunity the print preview is done by having a print relevant action in the action profile assigned to the transaction type and I guess for these it should be possible to call a function module by creating an own smart forms method.
But I think this is not possible for an ERP quotation, so you would have to create an own button. In the event handler for this button, one could call the ERP function module and display the result.
