Change iviews installed from a business package

Hi experts,
I'm working on EP 2004s and I would like to know if there is a way to change iviews installed in the portal from a business package using Visual Composer. Can I copy them into my own created package in VC?
Thanks
Panos

Hi,
Usually Business Package iviews - especially the older ones - aren't based on Visual composer models but rather older IView technology. Therefore, it should be impossible to change them in VC.
I've heard that SAP may be considering releasing business packages (XSS?) as VC models but never heard any confirmation regrading this. Probbaly based on the support-related questions. I once blogged on this <a href="/people/community.user/blog/2007/01/30/enterprise-soa-explorations-fragments.

CProjects iViews from the Business package "Projects"

Hi all,
We have been recommended to implement the cProjects iViews from the Business package "Projects". For this, we are asked to refer the note 602158. Can anyone guide me about how to proceed with this implementation?

Hi Vivek,
I think you need to use the package called cprxrpm for the cprojects installation.

Unable to open Document from Asset Business Package

Hi,
We have installed Asset Business Package in portal. Almost everything is working fine. But when we try to open a document (PDF ) attached to an asset by clicking the document link in the page, a new browser window opens with a text inside. The PDF does not appear.
The text is actually a URL. If we copy this and paste in any browser window, it opens the actual document.
e.g. when we click the document link, the browser opens with the following text written inside it -

Team Viewer is missing from the Business Package

We are using ESS And MSS Business Package for ERP 2004 - But it seems that Team Viewer is missing.
I understand it is part of an older version of Business Packager.
But how can we implement it for BP for ERP 2004?

It's not in the BP for MSS for ECC5. You have to do a blended BP approach. You will need to install the earlier BP as well and then customize your MSS role to include the My Staff portions you need (like the Employee information screen that uses the Team Viewer). This is due to the fact that not all services had been ported over to WebDynpro for Java as of the ECC5 business package. There are SEVERAL other posts in here about doing it this way. Hope this helps.

How to retrieve the webdynpro code from a business package

Hi Experts,
We have deployed the ESS/MSS Business Package . The issue is that we have to make some changes in the applications which have been deployed alongwith the business package.Since the business package was provided by SAP , we do not have the Webdynpro DC for the same.
Can Experts please tell me the easiest & legal way to retrieve the webdynpro piece of code so we can make the required changes?
Thanks in advance,

Flash install from wanboot corrupting package database?

Hi,
I am installing a number of Sun Sparc systems. Specifically V490s and V210s. I have been having a problem using wan booted flash archives and creating continers. I think this is a flash archive issue, not an OS issue.
Summary: packages not installed by zoneadm -z zoneid install because ALL packages have been marked partially installed or have been marked as needing to run a script.
Chain of events:
V490 : install from DVD
smpatch analyze
smpatch download
init s
smpatch update
reboot
init s
install other patches not installed by smpatch
init 6
register through command line sconadm
smpatch analyze
smpatch download
smpatch update
init 6
system comes up clean.
flarcreate -c -n solaris.flar /export/home/solaris.flar
move solaris.flar to wan boot server
ok boot net - install
wan boot installs and mirrors drives.
system appears to come up with a couple of errors, that I did not capture.
zonecfg -z zone1
zoneadm -z install
Installs ONE package the log file says that all the packages are marked partially installed.
Check packages using pkgchk -n a couple of errors that appear to be timestamp related.
Any help would be appreciated. I am waiting for Sun support to activate new contract.. so can't open a ticket yet..

Question about Copying an MSS iViews from Migrated Business Package

I have copied the iViews from the MSS migrated content and placed in my own folder. I then changed some of the properties on the copied iViews. I assigned my copies to a role. The problem is that the iViews, when ran in the portal, are still using the properties on the original iViews which I copied instead. What have I missed? Is there some settings I need to change after copying an iView?

I recopied the iViews and they seemed to work correctly after that. Portal iView copying is a bit buggy.

Possible to change the datasource from a business-view to a Sql Command ?

Hello,
When a business view contains a lot of elements it takes a while just to open the report.
We'd like to keep the BV as the dictionnary, but,
once the report design completed,
we'd like to disconnect the business view and replace it by the Sql command which can be seen in the menu option 'show SQL query'.
Is it possible via the RAS sdk ?
Did somebody experience this ?
How to proceed ?
Thanks a lot
Alain

Hi Ted,
I'm thinking opening a Case for this problem of opening reports based on a big BV.
We can't really reduce the BV, since it is the dictionnary and we need the whole thing...
I'm wondering why it is impossible to change the Datasource if the tables and fields underneath are identical.
Is it impossible to change the fields' mapping ?
The other solution, as you suggest, is to create a report from scratch, create a new Datasource with the Sql command format, and rebuild the report... I agree it looks like a big job...
Do you know if it is possible to export the report in XML for instance, change the XML, and then re-import ?
Thanks for your Help.

Modification of ABAP Web DynPro iViews delivered via Business Packages

Hello Everyone,
If this has been answered before, I apologize.
Is there any 'supported' way ( or 'unsupported' ) to modify the out of the box ABAP WebDynPro iViews which are delivered via some of the new Business Packages for ECC 6.0?
For example, I want to hide some fields on the 'Create Order' iView delivered in the Business Package for Internal Sale Representative..
Thanks

These Business Packages are just iView definitions that point to normal Web Dynpro ABAP components/applications that reside on the backend ABAP system. They can be enhnaced like any other WDA application.

Print functionality in MDM Standard Business Packages iViews

Hi Experts,
I have successfully connected MDM repository and EP and created system objects and system aliases and suitable user mapping. Now I am having a page with 5 iViews - Text Search, PickList search, Hierarchy search, Resultset and ItemDetails.
The requirement is to have a print button in the page which when, clicked will generate a user friendly (preferrably a PDF) page and will allow the user to take a print out of the resulting PDF page generated.
I have gone through the following links
[Re: Print button;
To be more specific, I am still not sure how to add a custom button and action to a standard iView - the deployed portal content is not a Web Dynpro application =, although I am not very sure what exactly is it.
Regards.
Rohit

Hi vara,
Question 1: How to add default search criteria to Search iViews in
MDM Portal Business Package
Ans. You can make use of Named Searches. Open the Data Manager Create a entry in the Named Search table, select the desired Supplier as a search criteria and save the search in the Named Search created and assign this Named Search to the user in MDM Console. Now use this user while performing User Mapping step. This will limit the Records to the search criteria of the named search and whenever you create new records satisfying the search criteria, it will get added to named search automatically.
For 2 and 3
I tried this in MDM 5.5 SP02, but no luck

News iviews in business package for CRM

Hi ,
I have uploaded the standard business package for CRM . In the first workset for "Home" the page for "news" has ivews like
1) press releases referring to the path /sapcrmnews/Partnernews/PressReleases
2) partner news referring to the path /sapcrmnews/Partnernews/PartnerNews
3) success stories referring to the path /sapcrmnews/Partnernews/SuccessStories
etc ...
All of these iviews do not display the content and show an error message "Item not found . The item you are attempting to access is not available. Check that the name or link is correct. You might also check whether the associated repository is currently accessible."
When I go to the KM content I can only see the folder /sapcrmnews but the directory structure that these iviews are looking for cannot be located . Should not the directory structure required by these iviews get created automatically when the business package is uploaded ? If not then do we need to manually create the directory structure ? How does the content get displayed in the iviews for the standard business package ?
Regards
Deepak Singh
