Change sequence in portal role

Hi Gurus,
i have a question.
I added three new roles in portal and added them to a user. Now anything is fine and the user can see 3 new tabs. What i want to know is - how can i change the oder or sequence from the tabs?
Regards,
Adem

The roles have a Property "Sort Priority" under the category Navigation. Set a sort priority for all 3 roles. The sort priority with lowest value is displayed first.

Change URL of Portal favorites

Hello,
Is there any way to change the URL of user favorites stored in KM?
I have a few BI users who have saved many BEX Portal favorites using Web Analyzer. Unfortunately due to a change in the portal role assignment he can no longer access his favorites and it shows page cannot be found. The reason being we were earlier rolling our Portal roles and Reports using Portal Groups. Users would be assigned to Portal groups which in turn would be linked to the individual Portal Roles. Recently we started assigning Portal Roles directly to user ids.
Surprisingly and I dont know why the favorites link create by the users include the portal group id as well in the url. We have to manually modify those favorites link so that the portal groups can be removed.
When I navigate to root->user home-> <user> -> favorites I have view all the favorites created by the user, I can modify and see properties but there is no way I can change the "Content Link" URL path under the "Access Links" tab. There is also a Miscellaneous tab which has a bookmark_id = D7NQ1PKD34N4RMYJ8MYUJCSTY and template_name = ZANALYSIS_PATTERN.
I tried searching the bookmark_id on the ABAP stack in table SMEN_BUFFC but no luck.
Thanks
Raj

Hi Kundu,
I dont understand what you mean by "adding permissions" please elaborate. Are you talking about adding "Full Control" to the Favorite links? Please note the user is able to see their favorites in the KM Portal Favorite iView but they cannot get to the page using the link stored in those favorites since the link has the name of portal group embedded in it becuase they were assigned to those portal groups before. Now they are just assigned to the portal roles directly.

Changing Portal Role after the status change of user status at the CRM end.

Hi,
I have Portal with Java database as the default and CRM is connected to it using SSO.The database in both the case in separate.The users that are created in Portal will have a BP status in CRM sytsem.
Now my requirement is that if the status of the BP gets changed at the backend simultaneoulsy its Portal role should also gets changed.How shall i facilitate this procedure of changing the Portal Role?
Is there any RFC ,BAPi or Webservices required for this?
Regards,
Amarys

Hello,
Since the status has no number it will appear under statuses W/O number bottom right in status overview window.
These status will appear as additional text beside current user status. For example if user staus is BUG and status without number is DFL and sets when deletion flag is set and gets deleted when it is revoked than user status will appear as
BUG DFL -
Deletion flag set.
BUG -
When deletion flag revoked.
You have to live with it. I don't think there is a way out for that.

Balu,
Well this issue has been discussed many a times in forums. You would have to point your data source to ABAP system.
Check this thread in [here|J2EE Failed to start , after changing UME datasource;.
Good Luck!

Report or ways to find who removed portal roles for an user id ?

Hi Experts,
Scenario: if admin removes super admin role or any other portal role for my id. is there any possibility to see who exactly deleted the roles for my id?
Many Thanks
Sekhar

HI,
as Anja wrote, this is not possible with a default installation of the SAP Portal.
What you can do is to provide role provisioning with IIDM, GRC or ABAP user store solution instead of giving the portal admin the permission to change role <-> user attribution.

Re: Portal roles are Inconsistent

Recently my systems are upgraded from SP 13 to SP 16. Up to now EPA is working fine with SP13. But now I imported same EPA file in SP 16 system. In some machines some roles are working but same roles are not working in another SP 16 level systems. My Portal is not a FPN.

Hi Michael,
My problem is solved by SAP support team. Below is the reasons and solution
When assigning a portal role to a user, permissions to the user on the
role are automatically created. These automatic permissions are called
Inner ACLs.
Sometimes, when transporting content between portals, the Inner ACLs arenu2019t created. This is why you could not see the role for the user.
After you logon to the portal with a super administrator user, change
the relative URL to : http://<server>:<port>/irj/servlet/prt
/portal/prtroot/com.sap.portal.admin.acleditor.listPermissions (you can
also do this through the URL http://<server>:<(>
<<)>port>/irj/servlet/prt/portal/prtroot/PortalAnywhere.Go and search
for "listpermissions"). After few minutes you should see a page that has the permission information of the portal. Scroll down all the way, if
you see a button on the bottom, click on it.
Thank you Michael and Others

Customizing availability of Portal Roles/TABs (ESS)

Hello Portal Knowledgeable ones,
I am running EP 6.0 SP13.
We will be implementing many of the Standard HR ESS functions. We desire to purposefully limit the hours of the day when these capabilities are available to users--EVEN THOUGH THE PORTAL IS UP. As an example, viewing paystubs is available 24x7, whereas other update-type ESS functions (update absences) will not be available from 1am to 5am each day. We want to limit this access because our payroll processing occurs during this window, and we do not want updates to occur during it.
Here is my question:
For the standard ESS web dynpro portal functions, how do we implement a time-of-day switch such that access to certain iViews is prohibited.
The end user experience needs to be as follows:
If time is between 1am - 5am and user clicks on updating ESS item in the portal, the system displays an alternative iView indicating that the system is down for maintenance.
General advice would be welcome as well. It seems that the portal displays tabs/content solely based on your pre-assigned roles. How do you turn-off assigned portal roles dynamically?
Thank you for any insights!
Kevin

Found a solution. All users are assigned to groups. Groups are then linked to roles. To change content for user, update the group to role link using UMFactory inside a portal application.

How many portal roles are needed for multi-country ESS?

we are implementing ESS for multiple countries.
has anybody tried to use one portal role for all countries?
the new ESS business package comes with one ESS portal role that has content for all countries. I was wondering if we can use this role as-is (after making a copy of course) to present content for all countries, instead of creating one portal role for each country.
Regards,
Tiberiu

in Employee Self-Service > General Settings > Homepage for Self-Services > Resources> Define Resources
did you have to enter the PCD path to the country-specific iView?
In that path you associate any resource to a Portal Page. Just change the PCD Path for custom Pages only.
Only the services are "country-specific" (because they have assigned a MOLGA). Follow the path from my previous answer to add any country-specific app.
the standard installation does not have the PCD path populated, it has the name WebDynpro application component instead
This is common issue. Depending on how the installation/upgrade was performed, the resources table is populated or not. But if is not populated, the "URLof PCD Page" property is taken from client 000. In my last implementation, i expected this issue, but i not populate manually this property and everything works fine.
Kind regards

Modify the default "No portal roles are assigned..." message iView

Hi,
When a user with no roles assigned is trying to access the EP6 SP9 portal, he/she is facing a warning message:
"No portal roles are assigned for this user.If this problem persists, contact your system administrator."
accompanied by a 'log off' link.
Is it somehow possible to change the look and feel and/or behaviour of this message?
For instance, we would like the message appearance to be more 'friendly' and with a link where they can find further assistance, etc.
With best regards,
Robin

The window for logoff is part of the masterhead. So i think you can modify the masterhead pasr file for that.
Its location is at...
usr/sap/<instance>/JC00/J2EE/cluster/server0/apps/sap.com/irj/servlet_jsp/root/web-inf/deployment/pcd.
In this folder you can find the com.sap.portal.masterhead.par.bak
this file can be imported to your developer studio and can be editted and uploaded.
hope this helps

No Portal Roles assigned issue

Hi Experts ,
We had recently integrated CRM with portal , but some users inspite of having the portal roles assigned to their id were getting an Access Denied page (we had customized the "no portal roles assigned " error page ) . Knowing the dependency of portal on IE and browser settings , this issue is sometimes resolved by clearing cache , cookies , and changing a few browser settings etc on IE 6.0 . If this doesn't work then upgrading to IE 7.0 definetly helps . Since this is just a workaround , I would like to know if anyone has experienced such a thing before and has a solution for this . Your inputs will be highly appreciated .
Regards
Mayank

Hi Mayank,
This is an error which happens when there is No roles assigned to the user. I am not sure how your systems are designed for User Management. Say for example in some cases LDAP is used to maintain Group to User Relationships and Portal Roles are connected to Groups therfore all users in the group is assigned to the Role. In some cases UME is used.
Having said that you can disable the cache for the browser. You have to compromise with the performance however, this will ensure that everytime the user logs in, the request will always go to the server.

Copy or make change of Standard Portal Content

Hi Expert,
I would like to use Portal Role that semilar to the standard one (little change).
And wonder which choice is the most effective.
1. Copy the standard one and add my own pages. Then create transport package of this role definition + added pages
2. Add my own pages to the standard role directly. Then create transport package of added pages
Could you kindly suggest, please?
With best regards,
Kanok-on K.

I would not modify the standard one. If you need to make modifications just create one custom role (as a copy of the standard), because you can face some problems modificating SAP standards. For example:
-If one of the modifications fails, it can be difficult to check where the error is. But you can always delete the custom role.
-If you are making transports packages to other environmet you could forget to add the standard component (and also you can face problems transporting standard components...)

Portal roles and Authorization in NW2004s

Hi Gurus,
In earlier Portal implementation of ESS/MSS which was ITS based we used to maintain roles in EP by doing a role upload and maintaining authorizations in the backend R/3 system and if any new changes being made in the role is being distributed to the r/3 system using system administrator -> Permissions -> sap authorization and role distributions are sent to R/3. where we can go to W3PR transaction can create authorization profile for that role there.
Now my question is in ESS/MSS implementation based on Web dynpro how are portal roles and authorization maintained?
please do tell me as to how they are maintained in the NW2004s implementations.
Regards,
Ramesh

plz take a break for few minutes and start.... u will get it..

GP difference between Portal Role GP Administrator and Process Role Admin

Please explain the difference between the Portal Role "GP Administrator" and the Process Role "Administrator"
In the CAF-GP Security guide, it says that the Process Role "Administrator" can "Maintain process instances using the GP administration tools". What does this mean?
If a user has the Portal Role "GP Administration" and he DOES NOT have the Process Role "Administrator" for ANY process, he can still maintain ALL of the process instances from the Administration workset. He doesn't need to have the Process Role "Administrator" assigned to him.

All three have the same Admion rights.
They are the default users created when you are creating a domain.
If not used or edited they are a major security risk!
If you just use say weblogic or portaladmin and do not take care of changing the password or security privilige (changing the group from Admin, or deleting this user if not required) of yahooadmin then anyone knowing the admin url can login with this default username and its default password.
I would personally prefer creating custom users and remove the default users.

Rommel Sharma

Assign Portal Roles from R/3

Hi all,
We've here an EP6 SP14 SR1 with R/3 as data source, this R/3 is used to ESS and MSS implementation on portal. The users are created at R/3 using SU01 and then Logon portal with this same user. But we've to assign portal roles with portal administrator to have access to menus in portal. There's a way to, when create user in backend we can assign automatically portal roles to the user ?
We do not have CUA neither LDAP.
Thanks a lot for help.
Best Regards,
Pedro Rodrigues.

Jörg,
Thanks a lot, that's very helpfull, now I can see the roles in portal groups. But, we need to use dataSourceConfiguration_r3_rw.xml because when user have to change his own password first time they enter in portal.
How could we got this authorization ?
Could we assign to pfcg roles that we pretend to use this authorization ?? What authorization is it ??
Thanks,
Best Regards,
Pedro Rodrigues.

HI,there.
I found out a inconsistent data inside the Role.
I checked :
Content Administration -> Portal Content -> Role -Objects
and opened a property editor.(property category "permissions (Java-Based").
There are also settings about Permissions(Actions) as Useradmin, and a discrepancy in the system occurs between this setting and Useradmin.
I changed this setting and fixed the error .
Thank you for your help:)
Best regards.
