I am going to use existing ABAP ECC Backend and the following components already exist on it.
On ABAP (existing box)
Learning Solution Front-End (LSOFE 600) Add-on
Training Management (LSOTM 600) included in SAP EA_HR (No Add-On)
On Windows XP
Authoring Environment (LSOAE 600) EXE
Offline Player (LSOOP 600) EXE
I have deployed Business Package for eLearning on(new box) Portal and configured with ECC backend
I am able to access the Learning form Portal (new box). This is all I am working on sand box environment

Authoring Environment - LSO

Hello, I use the SAP Learning Solution - Authoring Environment . I have created courses are available in other tools. The course is SCORM format. Importing is not a problem. The course includes the control questions. My question is. Can I use the setting to monitor progress in this course, it is only imported into this and presented on the portal. Authoring Environment enables intervention in this course? Set to be obliged to go through all the pages? Thanks for the reply.

Authoring Environment Tutorial or SAP Class

Hi ,
In order to learn the details of Authoring Environment ( LSO 300 or LSO 600 ) , what is the best ? SAP class HR270: SAP Learning Solution Overview, seems the only class were Authoring Environment is presented , is HR270 a good class (enough detailed) ?
Or if somebody as a link to Authoring Environment tutorial, that will be also welcome .
Thank you .

Sorry - not sure I understand the second half of your question.
Basically, if the test is 3rd party and SCORM compliant, then 'Pass/Fail' results will be passed to the backed ERP tables. If the provider puts results in the 'suspend data' field, you will be able to report on those with a custom report.
If the test is created in the AE using the testing tool, then results should be passed to the backend (pass/fail and test item stats) as long as the test is not a 'self-test' (must be a pre-test/post-test or stand-alone test.) And if you require passing of the post-test to pass the class, then you can inhibit the learner from receiving a qual. Hope this helps.
Cheers,
Sharon

SAP LSO Queries on Portal and Authoring Environment

Hi Gurus,
We are in the Process of implementing SAP LSO in ECC 6.0 environment.
Can the gurus give some pointers on the following quries:
Portal / Authoring Environment:
1. How does the Collaboration Functionality Work in LSO Portal? Can you provide me a pointer for any documents or links the configuration and set up.
2. I tried to install the LSOAE 6.00 in my PC. The Installation was successful but I am not able to open the application. I already have JDK 1.4.2 on my PC. Is there anything else that I need to do for opening the application?
3. Can we link a PPT directly from the CMS without using the Authoring Environment? If so can you provide me the details on how this can be set up. ( Will the WBT functionality work without the Authoring Environment in SAP LSO).
Please provide information.
Thanks and Regards,
Madhan.

1. How does the Collaboration Functionality Work in LSO Portal? Can you provide me a pointer for any documents or links the configuration and set up.
In general the KMC component is used for Collaboration, With infotype
Collaboration Room (Infotype 5045)
refer link for more detail. [http://help.sap.com/erp2005_ehp_03/helpdata/EN/45/5abb3f8e236d3fe10000000a114084/frameset.htm]
2. I tried to install the LSOAE 6.00 in my PC. The Installation was successful but I am not able to open the application. I already have JDK 1.4.2 on my PC. Is there anything else that I need to do for opening the application?
Pls update the JRE to latest version.
3. Can we link a PPT directly from the CMS without using the Authoring Environment? If so can you provide me the details on how this can be set up. ( Will the WBT functionality work without the Authoring Environment in SAP LSO).
No you can't do that, U need to publish any content form AE only. So that u can update the Publisher Database.
Manually u can have the content in CMS, but no tag to it for SAP or in AE. Repository

They each seem to point to some degree or another to using Versioning, but I've gotten those errors whether the "Use Delta Versioning..." checkbox is checked or unchecked. I do have the standard versioning settings set in the IMG, the standard delivered settings. And it's referencing the same file, _groupManProps.txt, that doesn't exist in any of the packages I've tried to publish/check-in. I've tried both AICC and SCORM content and I get the same errors.
We have an ECC6 system on EHP5, and using Authoring Environment version LSOAE09_0-10006103.
I'm running the Authoring Environment on a 64-bit Windows 7 PC.
I've tried to publish/check-in with the following versions of the Java SDK:
1.4.2 Update 13
1.4.2 Update 19 (the latest in 1.4.2 with a Windows installer available)
6 Update 14 (a colleague is using this version successfully with the AE)
6 Update 23
Each of those were the 32-bit versions after trying a 64-bit version of one (based on my PC's OS) and getting an unrelated 64-bit error.
I would appreciate any experience or wisdom any other users here have to share.
Thanks!
Jason

It was an adjustment we made on our ISA 2006 server. Under
1. Open Array - Configurarion - General
2. Select Additional Security Policy - Configure Flood Mitigation
3. On the Flood Mitigations Tab, there are a number of flood mitigation settings that can be configured.
The setting we had to adjust is under the "Maximum HTTP requests per minute per IP address (Click on Edit)
Increase the "Limit:" setting. We set it to 1500 which resolved our problem.
4. Apply the policy and wait for the configuration to be updated on all array members ( may take several minutes)

METADAT in SAP LSO Authoring Environment

Hi,
Can i know the importance and use of metadata in Authoring Environment in SAP LSO.
Thanks in Advance.

Hi Piscian
The basic concept of any matadata is to provide Data for the data provided.
In LSO AE the Metadata helps to give two categories of data Internal and External although it is not mandatory to fill all the information on it, the more information you provide on the matadata fields the more better the maintenance of the data and helps in good and faster search for the content from the CMS.
If the content for E learning is more in no., various versions and multiple content designer working on it its better to maintain matadata.
For more information please refer to [http://help.sap.com/erp2005_ehp_04/helpdata/EN/43/01e73edcc12c9ce10000000a1553f6/frameset.htm]

LSO Authoring Environment -- Create new essay type Item

Hi,
In Authoring Environment, how can we create Items with Essay Type answers(free text answers). Authoring Environment provides 5 types of Items as of now, MC item, MR item, MR Explicit, Fill-In item and Rating but we have a requirement to create Questions which allows Learners to enter Essay type answers. We planned to use the Fill-In item for this purpose, but it allows only few Characters to enter. Is there a configuration / Badi to increase the allowed Characters in the Fill-In item.
Regards
Sanjai

Hi
I hope, you have created your new Item category by copying the existing Item category in standard .
I feel that , you have not copied the Item category properly.
So, you need to delete the copied Item category and create a new one as below.
Select the Item category you want to copy (VOV7).
Choose "copy as" > rename the item category in the next screen > click enter.
A pop-up will come,"is it relevant for coying" > click "yes".
Now, you will get the message in the status bar that one item is copied.
Here, do not leave the screen, it has not copied completely.
In this screen click on "save" button and wait. You get a pop-up box "maintain table view" > click "continue" .
Now only your Item category is correctly copied.
From your postings, I feel , problem is in copying the Item category.
If you have followed like above, then problem may be in copying control.

LSO---- Authoring Environment----Error when synchronizing the objectives

Hi All
I am getting this error when i am creating new learning objectives in Authoring environment.
""A fatal error occurred when synchronizing the off-line objectives catalog with online catalog""
Any advises????

Hi
Authorizations is one issue. First try with authorization.
If you have a Learning Portal Installed, you will also find this problem there. In that case, tell your Basis Admin to check the RFC connection.

Question:
Hi Debbie,
We are implementing Learning Solutions 300.(we are using LSOFE300 LSO300 J2ee engine for content player).. We are able to create the Learning Nets in Authoring Environment and trasnport the same to Master Repository...and in master repositiory we are able to release the course
Please let me know the tables where this Learning Nets will be stored.. and also how to get the learning nets from Master Repository to the relevant tables (Necessary Configurations)
(Under Master Repository In the repository explorer The Release button is active...But Publish button isnot active...)
Thanks in advance..
Raghav
Answer:
Hi
Sorry for the delay:
We only installed LSO 200 and now we are upgrading to LSO 600. I am not sure if it is all the same. I do not know of tables that is updated with the learning net info; according to me it is only on the server and Content Manager.
When you release a learning net, it gives you an option to tick a box to publish it after the release; see below:
We make use of epiuse to assist us on the consulting side. Please let me know should you need a contact person there.

Authentication Query- SAP Authoring Environment connectivity to Portal KM

Hi,
We have to use SAP Authoring Environment tool to upload the LSO training content into Portal.
We installed, configured and connected to the Portal KM using AE successfully.
We noticed one thing after connecting to the Repository Explorer in AE, system prompts to enter the user id and password for ECC system. After supplying right ECC user details system directly showing the Portal KM Master Repository content without asking to enter the Portal user id and password.
Can anyone share how can we see the Portal KM Master Repository content without supplying the Portal user details?
Thanks
Phani

Thanks for your response.
No, it is not anonymous portal.
If you try to open the same portal url outside the AE, system prompts the user to enter user id and pwd.
But if it is inside AE, as I mentioned earlier after giving ECC user details and click on OK button system directly showing the Portal KM Master Repository without asking Portal user id and pwd.
Thanks

Install new Test Qestion Items in TestAuthor (Authoring Environment)?

Hi everyone!
Does enybody know, is it possible to add new (external) test question types to the existing ones in test author (Authoring Environment).
I would like to add some other question types eg.:
-define order of possibilities;
-choose the most fiting behavour or attribute;
Now there are the following test and rating types: MC (multiple choice) MR (Multiple choice item with two or more right answers), MR Explicite (Multiple choice item with two or more right answers, where the participant is required to make explicit decisions) Fill-in Item (Item with open answer) and Rating.
So is that possible to add NEW test question types to Test Author and also LSO(because later I'd like to play evaluate and collect results of the tests in LSO)
Regards A Heger.

Hi Andras Heger ,
Presently its not possible to add new templates...
as you cannot configure any things while setting up new type of questions.
Those five are the supported levels..
Thanks and Best Regards
