Atch import of Backend roles into Portal  7.3 ehp1

Hi,
We have 150 roles we need to import to our portal from our BW backend. Does anyone know a way to import a batch of roles with user assignment ticked from a text file ?
We can used the tools in the content admin and enter Z* but this brings in too many roles.
Thanks
Jim

Hey Jim,
There may not be a single standard program or transaction for mass update/upload of roles. We had to develop a Z-program for a similar functionality. You may use  BAPI_USER_CREATE, BAPI_USER_PROFILES_ASSIGN,  BAPI_TRANSACTION_COMMIT.
hope this helps.
Good Luck!

  • Importing CRM roles into Portal

    Hi All,
       I am using CRM-5.0 as backend and ER-6.0 with it. Both of them are sharing the same datasource. But if I create a new role in CRM I can't find it from portal. Whereas the users created in CRM are visible in portal. How can I import all the roles available in CRM to portal? My System landscape is working properly.
    Thanks
    Indranil Datta

    Hi Indranil
    SAP/CRM roles are built with transaction PFCG. Portal roles are built using portal tools. They have no direct connection.
    In theory you can upload SAP/CRM roles into the portal to become portal roles, but what do you gain? Every time you change the SAP/CRM role you need to upload it again..
    You are better to make portal roles that are assigned to portal groups that are the same as the PFCG roles. Maintain the portal roles manually, probably with a subset of the all the functions in the CRM role and assign them to the portal group that represents the FCG role.
    Cheers

  • Importing NT User information into Portal

    We are using Portal in an NT environment, and we have been able to get through the necessary single sign on issues.
    Now, we need to pull our NT user information into Portal's user database, including all the groupings we already have set up so that we can take advantage of Portal's exceptional security features. This is key to our ability to use the product, and to our demo in a week.
    The fact is we have 5,000 users to enter, and it is prohibitive for us to do that through the standard Portal APIs. We already have the users' input once in NT, we can get a flat file with all the information we need, we just need a way to get this information
    into the appropriate tables within Portal's database.
    Is there a script or some more "automated" way you can suggest for us to do this?

    Maybe you could try to use an intermediate LDAP export file (ldif), since Active Directory is LDAP-based and you can plug a LDAP to your Portal SSO Login Server.
    I only have tried exporting and importing using .ldif files up to now.
    I also have heard about techniques to use NT user account info to log on to Portal ; 'could be easier.

  • Unhandled exception for uploading BW roles into portal

    Hi experts:
    I  got the following warning in the log viewer when I uploade 2 BW roles, ZB_SAP_BW_DEVELOPER
    ZB_SAP_BW_WEB_ADMINISTRATOR, into portal (7.3). They are copies of the standard SAP roles.  I succcessfully uploaded other BI roles. These are the only ones that can not be uploaded. There is no error on the portal. Upload completed 100% but these 2 roles are not in the uploaded role list.  I checked sm12 and they are not locked. Wonder if anyone has had the same issue and solution?

    Thanks

    Hi Tiberiu,

  • Generate or import xml form content into portal

    Hi, we have a content repository type "fsdb" in wich we have created a xml form to publish content.
    Now we need to develope a program or process that read information from a database and generate the xml content in the repository,
    How can we generate the xml form content?
    I have tried coping and existing element of the repository from the file system and changing the data but something more is needed, I think that is necesary to update the database.
    Any suggestion is welcomed.
    Thanks in advanced.
    Regards.

    Hi,
    I differred my theme, cause I also had to use and transport the xml-forms into another portal. For this reason I have to use xml-forms. I've found out how to modify the the content/text of an subscription-mail.
    Is there any way to define different layouts for subscription-mails? (Maybe depending on the folder.)
    Is there any way to send an e-Mail to a specified address (including the content) when saving the xml-form?

  • R/3 Transaction Iviews vs Imported ABAP Roles on Portal

    Hi,
    In one of our requirement, Business needs to set up such that client should be able to have web based access to R/3 Transaction through Portal.
    We can achieve that by creating system in portal and create Transaction iview with required T-code of R/3.
    Whats wrong if we can define roles in ABAP system for a user with full hierirachy and import those ABAP roles into portals.and through portal we can give unified web based access to imported roles?
    Does both the possibilities accomplish our need?what are main gaps between these two methods?
    I want to go by Import method,Any suggestions please?
    Cheers
    Rani

    Hi Michael,
      I agree with you that the ABAP role has a complicated menu structure and uploading has to be done at regular basis.
    Is there any mechanism through which any change in ABAP role structure in R/3 reflects in portal exactly so that there is no need of regular uploading?
    If not?So in which business scenario uploading of ABAP roles into portals are helpful?whats the use?
    Coming back to your second solution
    It is much easier to have one transaction iView that starts transaction SMEN, which presents the user's full SAP menu in a single screen
    But about about a user if he wants to navigate from this transaction SMEN to another transactions to which he is authorised to(R/3 Back-end)through this single Transaction iview.
    In other words if we want to have access to 5 transaction iviews in R/3,do we need to create 5 corresponding transaction iviews in portals?How to achieve this requirement in a better way?
    Waiting for you Reply
    Bye and have a Nice Day

    Can you please suggest, how to go ahead to overcome the issue.

    Umang Mathur

    Hi,
        The backend user, mapped to Portal, was given SAP_ALL authorization. Once that was done, the role was uploaded easily into Portal. But now, the issue is, which role is specifically required to perform the task. The role, s_rfc was already given to the user, but still I was facing the error. 
    As of now, I am keeping the post open, for discussion and points. Please post your valuable comments.
    Cheers!!!!

  • Importing master role from ECC into portal throws derived role exception

    Hello,
    While uploading master and derived role from backend system into the portal I am getting the following exception.
    com.sap.portal.pcd.rolemigration.RoleMigrationException: Nested Exception. Failure to execute native function. Nested Exception. ROLE_IS_DERIVED
    Does it imply that the derived role is already imported with the import of master role and there is no need to explicitly import the derived role?
    The landscape uses role upload tool of portal for UME.
    Regards
    Pooja

    Hi Pooja,
    There is a limitation with the role upload tool that the derived roles cannot be uploaded.
    The migration is only able to upload roles which have their own menus. Derived R/3 roles does not have menus themselves as they derive them from other roles. The purpose of the migration is to bring the R/3 navigation structures into the portal. Therefore you can only migrate the role from which your role is derived.
    Regards

  • Mapping SRM Portal roles with SRM backend roles

    Using ABAP as UME when we create a user in SRM backend and assign backend roles, then corresponding portal roles should also get assigned to the
    user so that portal roles are not to be assigned separately by portal admin.
    Currently for the requirement I followed the following steps:
    1. To SAPJSF user in SRM backend assigned roles SAP_BC_JSF_COMMUNICATIONand SAP_BC_JSF_COMMUNICATION_RO.
    2. Created a RFC SPML of type 'G'.
    3. Activated UME-SPML connection in SPRO.
    4. Then in PFCG for the role personalization assigned PCD path of portalrole.
    But I am not able to achieve the requirement through the aforesaid steps.
    Please Guide.
    Regards,
    Gagandeep.

    If you are using ABAP persistency for UME your ABAP roles should appear in the UME as groups. Just assign the portal roles you need to your ABAP roles/groups. Thats it,
    cheers

  • Import  oracle forms into portal

    Can anyone please give me some pointers in importing forms created by orcale forms into portal?

    There is no direct way to import your Oracle Forms into Oracle Portal, as the Forms within our Portletbuilder components are of a smaller, simpler functionality set than that provided within Oracle Forms.
    What I would recommend is to invoke your Oracle Forms from Portal by integrating Forms with Oracle Single-Sign-On (SSO). Integration of Oracle Forms with Oracle SSO is described in Chapter 5 of the Oracle9iAS Forms Services Deployment Guide, available here on OTN:
