Business Packages Maintenance Planner 1.2 and Buyer 1.4 implementation

Hi Team,
We would like to implement below Business Packages on our landscape.
Business Package for Maintenance Planner 1.2
Business Package for Buyers 1.4
Could any one advice any technical documentation with steps to be followed to implement the entire BPs.
I'm not able to find any standard PDF to follow, that would be really helpful if any one could provide template document with the steps to be followed
Thanks & Regards,
Ramesh

Hi,
No need to worry. This is pretty straightforward. I have deployed many BPs using the following approach.
For each BP that is available, you also have corresponding config steps in help.sap.com.
For Business Package for Maintenance Planner 1.2 - http://help.sap.com/erp2005_ehp_04/helpdata/en/46/66a9bd5d9d5de5e10000000a1553f6/frameset.htm
For Business Package for Buyer 1.4 -
http://help.sap.com/erp2005_ehp_05/helpdata/EN/4b/8d453396515685e10000000a42189b/frameset.htm
You need to proceed as follows: (I am assuming you have already downloaded the package files)
1. Deploy the BP files using JSPM.
2. Follow the URLs for each BP above and you will find prerequisites and technical description and configuration information in these URLs (expand the page to get the frame on the left hand as well.) Follow the config steps, they would be pretty well descriptive.
Once done, you can assign the appropriate roles to the users who are going to use these functionalities. The roles are also documented in the same URLs.

Possible to run 2 different Business Packages for ECC 5.0 and 6.0 ?

Hi there,
anybody knows a solution, to support a Busienss Package for ECC5.0 and 6.0 on one NW7.0 Portal?
We build a concernportal as mainportal with different companies in one portal. These companies have their own SAP-Systems.
It´s a complex systemlandscape:
Company ABC have a SAP HR System with ECC5.0 with one client 401.
Company XYZ have a SAP HR System with ECC6.0 with TWO clients 020 and 050.
These both companies wants to get the Business Package for ECC5.0 and ECC6.0
Our solution is to implement the Federated Portal Network, thats works very fine. (Okay, Sessionproblem with ECC5.0)
For company ABC we installed a Javastack on host to install the WebDynpros directly to targetsystem ECC5.0
For company XYZ we have a problem with FPN, because the two clients in the targetsystem.
We installed a Javastack with portal on this machine, import BP for ECC6.0, customize portal and ABAP and pick the roles vis FPN from mainportal. But only for ONE client (020).
Now we can´t connect these Jco´s to the other client, because the users, tehre are in client 050 are not in 020 for logon to the portal. The portal supports only one client as UME on a doublestack-installation.
On Mainportal we don´t install any business packages, because there are only for one Targetrelease.
SAP Help have a solution for mapping the Jco´s, but don´t help us:
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw70/helpdata/DE/af/84a34098022a54e10000000a1550b0/content.htm
Does anyone have same problems?
Must we install a Javaonly-system, to connect the other Client for company XYZ (050) ?
Best regards
Christian

There are two approaches (that I'm aware of):
- install external authentication (such as an LDAP which can be populated from the R/3 backends)
- install an additional Java instance
I would go for both of them because
- it will make things easier if you implement other functionality that is in the portal (non-ESS)
- it will avoid patching one portal and to keep the SPs of both backend systems in sync with the portal

Portal Content - Business Packages for CRM 7.0 and IC Webclient

Hi all

We are looking at CRM 7.0 and SAP Netweaver Portal 7.0 integration. 
I've noticed that the Business Package (BP) for CRM 7.0 contains very limited business roles for: 
Channel ManagerChannel Manager 
Partner Manager 
Channel Manager (Telecommunications) 
Partner Manager (Telecommunications) 
Customer 
Digital Asset Management 
Incentives and Commissions 
only.

In the past, there the BP for CRM 5.0 contains a lot more roles including customer service representatives and managers. Given that the standard business role export (from CRM 7.0) and import (EP 7.0) does not work for IC Web client business roles, is there a standard way for functionality delivered in IC Webclient like Customer Service to be integrated into EP 7.0?

Otherwise, if we were to configure each BSP page individually for IC Webclient, will there be functions that do not work? eg: alerts, manager realtime view of CSR activities, call tracking, telephony integration etc..

Thanks!

ESS Business Package 50.4 iView Listing and Details

First let me start by saying that I really appreciate all of the great posts on this site. You guys are really amazing, and have helped me greatly.
I was wondering if there is someplace that I can see a listing of all the iViews in ESS complete with their overview/detailed description, system requirements, notes/support package corrections, etc. ???
I found exactly what I need for MSS in the SAP Knowledge Warehouse.
<a href="http://kwhelp.sap.com/SAPIKS/S14b582f4cc214ce98673f38ed7a2afc4/KW/IWB_STRUCT8FCCE93A4295AC61E10000000A114084/IWB_EXTHLP8ACCE93A4295AC61E10000000A114084/?LANGUAGE=EN&RELEASE=60F&IWB_INDUSTRY=&IWB_COUNTRY=&TMP_IWB_TASK=DISPLAY">http://kwhelp.sap.com/SAPIKS/S14b582f4cc214ce98673f38ed7a2afc4/KW/IWB_STRUCT8FCCE93A4295AC61E10000000A114084/IWB_EXTHLP8ACCE93A4295AC61E10000000A114084/?LANGUAGE=EN&RELEASE=60F&IWB_INDUSTRY=&IWB_COUNTRY=&TMP_IWB_TASK=DISPLAY</a> Scroll down on the left hand side under Technical Description -> iView Pools.
I just need to know if there is some place like this that lists the ESS iViews. Would you please help? Thank you.

Adam,
Have you looked at the documentation that is linked to the ESS 50.4 Business Package in the portal content portfolio right here on SDN?

Business Package for Communication with NW04 and Exchange 2003?

Hi, we are evaluating opportunities to realize a groupware integration in the SAP Portal EP60SP2. A upgrade to Netweaver is planned, so the possible solution should work with Netweaver too. Our Exchange version is 2003.
I'm thinking about the standard SAP Groupware-Integration in combination with the Business Package for Communication.
Has anyone expirences with the Business Package for communication, Netweaver and Exchange 2003, yet?
I know, it's not officially supported, but maybe it works.
With the OWA-iViews we've got problems to implement our Styleguide and to devide into different iViews. The informations shown in the iViews of the Business Package are adequate and we would save ActiveX.
Is there another solution that works?
Are there other iViews from 3rd party developers, that show Outlook informations? Has anyone realized something like this in a project yet?
I would be grateful for any ideas.
Sandra

Hi Sandra,
Please note that the Business Package for Communication was only available for SAP EP 5.0. Newer releases of SAP EP contain the groupware (GW) functionalities and some GW iViews automatically as soon as KM is installed with the EP. The integration with MS Exchange 2003 should work. If you look for iViews such as Send EMail, Create Appointment, Show availability and Room Calendar, you can use the iViews shipped by SAP. If however you need the EMail inbox or the personal calendar and tasks, then the native OWA iViews are the way to go. For further details please refer to the SAP NetWeaver admin guide http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/0c/30d624a0fae949902f7a4b2a8f98bd/frameset.htm.
Hope that helps

Viewing and uploading documents when using a business package in the portal

DMS works fine in the ECC backend and we are able to create and view documents but when attempting to view a document via the Business Package Maintenance Supervisor or Maintenance Technician, error returns with "No originals available for the document". we are using Enh Pack 3 but can find no configuration advice in the Business Package technical configuration. Did a search here but could not find anything specific. Any help appreciated

Hi Frank,
When you upload document into SAP DMS, you need to check-in these for storing into repository. Have you checked-in documents? if not then these documents can;t be retrieved by the system. Kindly check and revert back on this solution.
Hope this will help.

Hello,
Yes Prior to moving your Webdynpro applications, you need to independently deploy the business packages in all your landscaping QA/PRD and then move the your webdynpro applications/pcd's/roles/worksets etc
you can deploy either from SDM or JSPM.

Business Package, Alias and different systems....

Hello everybody,
I have got some questions concerning the mentioned topics.
I have a business package (Internal Sales Repr.) and it is already installed.
1. On each iView in the business package there is set an ID for a SAP System, for example a BW. Is this the SID or is it the ALIAS I defined for a system to access the BW?
2. There is a machine with enterprise portal, R/3 and BW running under the same SID. They all have different clients. (thank god it is a test system and not productive)
Do I need to create different systems in the portal to access to BW and R/3 because of the different clients?
Is it generally possible to implement SSO form the portal to the Backend, if they have the same SID?
3. The ID from 1. is not set as a deltalink. Is it defined by default or it is set when I install the business package?
Wow, a lot of stuff. But I hope you can help me
thanks
christian

Hi Christian,
Two different system has to be created in portal. In the system object you have to set the connector properties, user admin, user mapping and the WAS for BW and ITS for R/3 properties.
You have to create the system alias and the test the connection.
For import and export of the certificates. you have to use Strustsso2 transaction.

Business Package on Producer and Consumer in a FPN

Hi Gurus,
I need to know if we need to install the Same Business packages on both the producer and consumer or is it enough to install the Business Package only on the producer....
Regards!

Whats your scenario, typically one would go about installing business packages and other content on the producer or multiple producers and federate it with a consumer portal and provide access via the consumer.
For example if you have a box which hosts ESS content, another box which hosts BI content and you have a global portal which is the box which all the end users will be accessing, then you simly have to install BP for ESS on the ESS box, create BI content on the BI box and display all this content via the consumer (global portal).
Hope this helps.
Good Luck!!

Best Practice in using Business Packages

Hi All,
Are there any Best Practices in the use of Business Package content? Do you assign the Roles delivered by the Business Package and do you make changes to the original iViews?
or
Do you copy the content delivered in the Business Package to a new folder and work with there?
These questions are purely at the configuration level and not at the Java coding level. For instance if I want to turn of the iView Tray, or change a parameter such as height, or even remove an iView from a page or Role.
I would like to know the various approaches the SDN community uses and the different challenges and benefits that result in each approach.
Look forward to hearing from you all
Paul

Hi Paul,
I also build my own roles. The only time I might use the standard roles is for demo purposes early in a project. You will find that in some cases the business packages like MSS don't always even include standard roles, so you have no choice but to build.
I never change any of the standard iViews/Pages/Worksets - ever.
The most contentious issue seems to be whether to do a full or delta link copy of the standard objects. I tend to initially do a full copy of the objects into a custom folder set in the PCD and modify those. Then I only use delta links from Page to iViews where I need the option of setting different properties for the same iView if it appears in multiple pages. Delta links can be a bit flakey at times, so I tend to only use them where I have to. I suspect that I may get to a point where I don't use them at all.
Just my 2 cents worth....
Regards,
John

Download Business Package for Recruiter 1.41 but available till 1.40 E-rec

Hi,
I have to deploy E-rec packages on Portal, our backend is SAP ECC ehp4 with SP 20.
As per recommendation, Business Package for
Recruiting Administrator 1.41 and Business Package for
Recruiter 1.41 needs to deployed to get E-rec functionality, but on service market place under
Portal content folder packages are avalable till 1.40 instead of 1.41.
Request to tell where is the path from where we can download 1.41 packages.
2)I want to clarify one more thing that SAP E-Recruiting (EA-ER) needs to add on
to get E-rec functionality in Backend(ECC EHP4).

Hi Deepak,
Thanks for your reply!!!!
We have to deploy only two packages Business Package Recruting Administrator 1.40 and Business Package for
Recruiter 1.41 and add-on is also required SAP E-Recruiting (PA-ER) in Backend(ECC EHP4) as ERECRUIT
package is already there with SP 6.
Request you to tell i am on the right track or not??

Are Business Packages Useless ?

For a customer implementation, we are evaluating the EP Business packages.
the Customer has mySAP 4.7 and BW, and interested in the areas of purchasing, finance, controlling, inventory management. The customer is not using SAP-HR.
we are finding that the business packages are very shallow, and hardly provide any useful functionality.
We feel that SAP has over hyped that Business Packages will solve all your problems and will provide considerable EP content for business users.
Our findings are that Business Packages (except for ESS, MSS and for CRM/SRM) are very shallow, and you can do things better using your current SAP transactions and BW queries.
i would be interested to know your experiences and if you are happy with the Business Package offering from SAP.

Actually, we do have standard business scenarios in Finance, Purchasing, Controlling, Inventory and Materials Management.
We did evaluate each and every BP from SAP for EP.
The fact is that BPs are shallow and hardly provide useful functionality for standard scenarios.
I can find that BPs for ESS, MSS for SAP-HR, and the SAP CRM, SRM have some significant funcationality.
All the rest of the BPs targetted for SAP ERP and BW do not have useful iviews. Also, all the transactions that are useful are delivered through SAPGUI or ITS transactions. We can develop the same thing without using the BP.
Hence, our finding is:
- BP for mySAP ERP provide 10% functionality.
- The rest of the scenarios have to developed by the customer through SAPGUI / ITS / custom developed iViews.
- BW queries are customer specific based on how we run our business. The BP queries are not useful and we have to use our currently developed BW queries.
Overall, we are quite disappointed and disagree with the statement that BP can be valuable and can accelerate EP project development.
I would be interested to see where and how you derived 80% benefit through BPs. I hope you can prove me wrong
