Do we need to install SAP Portal for implementation of ESS & MSS

Hi All,
We are implementing SAP (ECC 6.0) for one of our client, Due to some contractual limitations, we do not want to implement SAP portal though it is a part of standard delivery, I want to know that is it absolutely necessary to install and implement SAP portal for implementation of ESS & MSS.
What i know and understand is that with the new architecture ESS & MSS can be deployed and accessed as a stand alone application on an internet browser by (Web dynpro client) without any need of enterprise portal. While ESS & MSS application can be hosted on Web application server.
Please validate my understanding if it is correct, Also does the new Web dynpro based client support all the functionality and authorization related issues for ESS & MSS ??
Regards
Amit Ajmera

Hi Amit,
Yes, you can run ESS/MSS as WebDynpro application without having to deploy on Portal. However, the look and feel and user accessibility is much better when deployed as Portal page. For WebDynpro, you will still need to publish the individual URL link to application somewhere...
Another point is that on portal you can deploy standard Business package specific to ESS and MSS which contains lots of readymade iviews/page/roles etc so it can reduce your development cost dramatically.
But, at the end it all depends on your individual requirement and project scope.
Cheers !!
Satya.

As far as I know, SAP has changed travel management and HR administraor from WDJ to WDA as of EhP1.
Do you have any ideas about any other BP?
Actually, I wonder SAP has been developed any new BP based on WDJ after EhP is introduced.

Multiple backend systems for business package ESS/MSS

Hi,
I would like to know whether there is a smart solution for connecting the business package ESS/MSS with multiple backend systems (up to 10 systems).
I am aware of the possibility using parameter "sap-wd-arfc-useSys", but this implies, that content needs to be duplicated n-times in order to be able to maintain the Jco destination suffix.
Any hint, also for custom built solutions are very welcome!
Best regards,
Johannes

What is the diff between ITS ESS/MSS and Webdynpro ESS/MSS

Hi all,
Could anybody tell me the differences between ITS ESS/MSS and Webdynpro ESS/MSS?
Presently we have ITS based ESS/MSS in our landscape and customer wants to go for Webdynpro ESS/MSS. and Webdynpro ESS/MSS is already installed in the sandbox system where ITS based ESS/MSS is already there.
my doubt is can we install both ESS/MSS in the same server? if it is installed we may get any problems?

Karunakar,
check the compatibility of frontend and backend levels

Whats the scope for engineering graduate(fresher) with scsa background

Will the companies hire fresh engineering graduate with solaris background(scsa) without any experience.....people are always telling that the companies are looking for experienced people in solaris field...is it like tat? then whats the reason that many institutes are offering solaris course for freshers

Any Unix certification will help you in a job search. Many employers are all about the paperwork - certifications, degrees, etc. They have no clue about what's actually involved so they figure if you have the paperwork, you must have the ability. This is all BS of course, but that's what they like. Just be careful to not have TOO MANY degrees and certifications, or otherwise you'll price yourself right out of the market - they'll think they can't afford you and you'll just leave for a higher paying job. It's a fine-edged sword, but that's the market.

What is needed for JAVA custom development only?

We have a pilot Netweaver 04 server setup with JDI configured under scenario 2+. We will only use the landscape for custom non-R/3 related JAVA apps. Will I need a DEV WAS JAVA JDI instance, QA WAS JAVA JDI instance, and PRD WAS JAVA JDI Instance? If not the would I just need a DEV JDI instance, then a vanilla QA WAS JAVA instance and PRD WAS JAVA instance. I am trying to understand how system landscape compare to a traditional R/3.

Hi Steve,
if you are using NWDI, please refer to the enviroment recommendations there. Actually, compared to R/3 your DEV environment is what you run either locally or in a group organization. Your DEV environment is the server you use as a central testing instance and that should obviously be another server then your productive servers.
Basically this means that NWDI usually does a transport to the dev system and if you want to deploy to productive, you just would initiate such from NWDI.

Benny

Pointer on what to look for (NullPointerException in FontManager.getFont2D)

I have a screen that we are trying to display remotely (via an RMI bridge). On the local application it displays properly everytime, but when displayed remotely It displays properly once. From then on it comes up blank with a null pointer exception (Posted below). Right now I'm thinking there is something in the set-up for the local applicateion that is not happening on the remote one. But I didn't write either and my brute force investigation hasn't trned up anything.
Since I only have to disconnect and close the remote application and restart to get it to display again this could also be a problem cleaning up resources on a window close. I'm hoping that someonw might have an idea of what causes this Exception. Moste references I've found to it appear to be listed as fixed (And aren't the same thing since they happen all the time) or are in threads that just stopped with no resolution. I'm hoping that if I find out what it means I might have a better idea what to look for.

Yes, rule no. 1, Firewire or FW/USB
2. Largest HDD you can afford (having more space than you need it not a problem; needing more space than you have, is.)
3. 7200 rpms. (Most of them are, but not all)
Here is a list of some of the best buys already sorted for 200-300 GB.
Different folks like different manufacturers. I have had my LaCie for 2 years. No problems. I like it for it's compact size and elegance.
Here are some good hints from Dr. Smoke on Backup and Recovery. Instead of Retropect, which I could never quite figure out, I use Carbon Copy Cloner or SuperDuper.
Post back with further questions or comments.
Good luck.

ESS/MSS 1.31 version for download

Hi where can I find the downloads for the version ess/mss 1.3,HR admin 1.1,talent developement,simplified reporting etc.. for NW2004s?
Thanks
KK

You would have to connect to SAP Service Market Place @ http://service.sap.com/swdc and then follow the following path.
In the left hand side go to
SAP Software Distribution Center -> Download -> Support Packages and Patches -> Search for Support Packages and Patches
and then in the RHS
Support Packages and Patches - Entry by Application Group -> SAP Application Components -> SAP ERP ->SAP ERP ENHANCE PACKAGE -> SAP ENH PACK 3 FOR SAP ERP 6.0 -> Entry by Component ->Portal Content
Over there you will get
1 - BP ERP05 ESS 1.31
2 - BP ERP05 HR ADMINISTRATOR 1.11
3 - BP ERP05 COMMON PARTS 1.31
4 - BP ERP05 MSS 1.31
And the XSS Components you will get at
Support Packages and Patches - Entry by Application Group -> SAP Application Components -> SAP ERP ->SAP ERP ENHANCE PACKAGE -> SAP ENH PACK 3 FOR SAP ERP 6.0 -> Entry by Component ->SAP XSS (Self Services)
Thanks,

HOw to create a Batch file for java application and whats the use of this ?

HI,
How to create a Batch file for java application ?
And whats the use of creating batch file ?
Thanks in advance

First of all, you're OT.
Second, you can find this everywhere in the net.
If you got a manifest declaring main class (an classpath if needed), just create a file named whatever.bat, within same directory of jar file, containing:
javaw -jar ./WhateverTheNameOfYourJarIs.jar %*By the way, assuming a Windows OS, you can just double click the jar file (no batch is needed).
Otherwise use:
javaw -cp listOfJarsAndDirectoriesSeparedBySemiColon country/company/application/package/className %*Where 'country/company/application/package/' just stands for a package path using '/' as separator instead of '.'
Don't specify the .class extension.
Javaw only works on Windows (you asked for batch, I assumed .BAT, no .sh), in Linux please use java.exe (path may be needed, Windows doesn't need it 'cause java's executables are copied to system32 folder in order to be always available, see PATH environment variable if you don't know what I'm talking about) and use ':' as classpath (cp) separator.
The '%***' tail is there in order to pass all parameters, it only works on Windows, refer to your shell docs for other OSs (something like $* may work).
This way you have a command you can call to launch your code (instead of opening NetBeans just to see your app working). You could schedule tasks on it or just call it in any command prompt (hope you know what it is 'cause there have been people in this very same forum with no clue about it, if not just hold the 'Windows button' and press 'R', then type 'cmd' and run it).
Finally add dukes and give 'hem away.
Bye.

What's the best XML for JAVA?

Hi There,
My big question is what should I use for develop a normal XML document, that can:
- contain BASE64 strings
- support UTF-8 add attributes, etc.
I then want to pick this document and:
- do it's parsing (walk trough)
- apply a xsl to this document.
I've made this in C using libxml2 for WIN32/HP-UX, and also in VB using msxml4, now I must make the same document in Java, I see a lot of alternatives but really don't know what to choose...
In these languages I pick a structure that we support (similar to a tree) and serialize it to XML, send it as a string and then rebuild the initial structure with flaws. Each client can have a xsl file to show the information in the way he wants to.
So, I ask your opinion what's the best for JAVA (a fast learning curve is preferable, but speed of processing is very, very important)?
Thanks in advance for all the replies,
Lu�s Pinho
