How to use PPM 5 (standalone or integrated with portal)

Hi,
I would like to know which advantages and disadvantages are presented by using PPM 5.0 standalone or integrated with portal? all functionality are the same in both cases? which is the best option?
Thanks a lot,
CAMILO URIBE

Hi,
from a functionality point of view, standalone and portal usage of SAP Portfolio and Project Management 5.0 are the same (except functionality which is in general only available within a portal, e.g. KM documents, collaboration rooms, etc.).
From a TCO perspective, for the standalone usage you'll only need the ABAP stack (except for ADS), i.e. if you don't anyway already have a portal in use in your company, this could lead to a lower TCO.
Kind regards,
Florian

Project systems integration with portal (EP)

Dear all,
I have to integrate the projects systems module with Portal.(EP)
In portal transactional I views can be used to create projects which can be store in the R/3.
Now the issue is to create projects with out using Transactional I views. This should be a simple entry through portal, where in the user keys in the key fields and there by the project is created and scheduled.
For this I have tried with using business packages given by SAP to integrate with portal.
Now the issue is I can display the projects that are created in R/3 through portal and display the necessary fileds required for viewing (I views). Now the main problem is to create the project using these business packages so that the same get updated in the R/3.
But business packages do not have the option of creating the project. I am using the business packages for projects 50.3.1
Has any body come across this type of issue which has to be integrated with portal and subsequent creation of projects through portal
If any body has done this in any other way please kindly share on this.
Experts please throw some pointers on this.
Regards.
Vara Prasad

Hi Aman,

Forum not integrated with portal content

Hi All,
I like the new forum functionality in the NetWeaver Portal 2004s SPS 12.
But I expect the integration of the forum and the protal environment. But I cannot create links to files that still exist in the portal. I can only adding new files, where are they stored?
How can I create links on files and folders, that were stored in the portal. Without copy & paste access-ids, i think about a wizard which navigates me to files.
Bye and Thanks for helping me
Steve

Sorry all this was sent as a reply to the watch email... apparently SAP doesn't even use all of the functionality... also as stated... even documentation is being removed from what they originally released!
Agreed... this is a major integration for end users that is not there yet. The new products coming out seem to be because of the fact that it is used on SDN and SAP Can now claim that it is part of the "standard product" but as most of the other KMC technologies it probably wont get the dedicated development that is needed.
At this point I don't think there is a way to do that. I am more concerned with the fact that the NNTP portions of the forums don't work, the documentation is horrible, and there are tons of other things wrong!
Thanks

How to determine which languages available with portal, and how to install

I have a customer who may have a need for languages that might not be default delivered with the portal. They are able to install languages in an ABAP environment (unicode). What I'm trying to understand is:
1.) What languages are available after a NW70 portal installation? How can I determine this? The pull-down list of languages in the UME record for a user is extensive, but they aren't all actually active because I tried some like Korean and the logon to portal was still English. But then I tried Thai and that seemed to work, as did French, Spanish, etc.
2.) How can I install needed langauges for the portal?
I realize that even with the language support, the actual portal content needs to support those. But that's an entirely different issue.

EXTREMELY URGENT - Ultrasearch integration with portal giving errors

gurus,
i'm creating a portal source for Ultrasearch and when i register the portal site with Ultrasearch i get the following error -
----- START ERROR -------
Oracle Ultra Search Error
Could not retrieve data from Oracle 9iAS portal. Please make sure that the URL base is correct and that the portal is
operational.
------ END ERROR -------
i looked into the error.log file in $APACHE_HOME/Apache/logs and found the following in the error log file -
http 404 - portal.home.wwsbr_srchxml.execute : Procedure does not exist
can anyone explain what this means ....
i looked for wwsbr_srchxml package and it is valid and owned by portal.
ideas ...?
any help will be greatly appreciated ....
thanx

Issue:
Couldn't register the portal as a data source within the UltraSearch
Resolution:
When registering the portal URL Base it executes a procedure on the portal schema (using the part of the portal.home to execute the procedure)
There for to register we have to use http://hostname:port/pls/portal/portal
The last "portal" is whats used to execute the wwsbr_srchxml.execute procedure.
The log in the Apache/Apache/logs/error_log...
[Thu Jul 25 18:04:12 2002] [error] mod_plsql: /pls/portal/portal.home.wwsbr_srchxml.execute HTTP-404
portal.home.wwsbr_srchxml.execute: PROCEDURE DOESN'T EXIST
so basically its looking for portal.home.wwsbr_srchxml.execute which doesn't exist, since its inside the portal schema not the "portal.home" schema.
Thanks,

BW integration with Portal

Hi,
We are running EP 6.0 sp11 and BW 3.5. BW Power Users will use Query Designer to publish directly to roles in the Portal. That's all working, but we're having a problem with permissions (we would like to restrict the available PCD folders to prevent user error).
1. What permissions does the report author require in the PCD in order to publish a query directly to a PCD folder?
2. What permissions does the user require on the role in the PCD in order to publish to it?
Thanks,
Marc

Hi Marc,
I haven't tried it recently from BW to the portal but I believe all the uses needs is Read and Write access. the same you need if you are creating it directly in the portal.
Hope this helps,
John
