Context Sensitive authorization implement in 4.6C

Dear all,
Is there any way to implement context sensitive authorization in 4.6C? Something like P_ORGINCON object in the newer version.
I know the easiest way is to create two IDs for one user; one with each respective role/ structural authorization. Is there any other option?
Thank you for all your input.

Several years ago SAP were offering customers on release 4.6c the option of having the context sensitive solution retro fitted to their system. It involved someone from SAP remotely logging into the customer's system and installing the required objects.
I can't tell you what this cost, or even if they still do it, but you could check with your local SAP contact. It might be easier (and cheaper) to upgrade to ERP....
You can definitely map multiple portal users to one backend R/3 user quite easily, but I don't think you can do the reverse.

HR Context-Sensitive Based Security

Dear All,
Wondering if anyone implemented Context Sensitive based security in HR. That is using P_ORGINCON auth object instead of P_ORGIN for HR Master data.
If so, were there any issues? Looking for some pros and cons to convince our Steering Committee.
Based on my experience, it would be little upfront work but would save the agravation in the long run with the HR personnel cross functional activities.
Any suggestions or thoughts are great!!
Thanks
Sarada

will this be a new implementation or an upgrade?
furthermore, determining whether or which issues you will encounter in the process of implementing context-sensitive authorizations mostly depends on the requirements your company has given you and your team.
initially, the organizational structure has to be in place. without an accurate structure you have no change of succeeding.

Context sensitive solution for Structural authorization

Dear all,
I would like to know whether new relationship, evaluation path and authorization profile has to be created for each role with context sensitive structural authorization ?
In T77UA table, each user has assigned a profile which tells the system how to find the structure by evaluation path (in T77PR table). Then in tranx OOAW, the evaluation path indicate how to build the structure by series of relationship, and this way we have to create new relationship for each role with context.
Am i correct ?
If an organization has many roles, then many relationship, evaluation path, profile.. has to be created !
Thanks for your help !
patrick cheung

Hi Chandra,
Thanks for your prompt reply !
This is for Context Sensitive solution, not the normal structural authorization:
Yes, if you add the authorization object P_ORGINCON in PFCG, you will notice that the field "Authorization Profile" has to be entered which tells the system WHICH ORG STRUCTURE does this authorization are refering to...
In table T77PR, instead of hardcoding the organization unit in the object ID field, we use Evaluation path to tell the system how to find the org structure for employees. Function RH_GET_MANAGER_ASSIGNMENT will return the org unit ID for the evaluation path.
In transaction OOAW, the said evaluation path specified the relationships which the system should use to draw the org structure of the employee's supervision... and there should be relationship like "Is managed by", may be as follows:
O B 002 Is line supervisor of * O
O A 011 Cost center asignmnt * K
O B 003 Incorporates * S
O B 012 Is managed by... * S
Up to now.... if you want to assign authorization to someone as follows, you could not simply maintain the same relationship "Is managed by" to Org Structure A and B because this will confuse the system as to which org structure you want the employee to maintain infotype 7 or 14/15. You should then create different relationships and maintain them to Org Structure A and B. And tell the system how to find the structure from the Evaluation path, which is stick to the Auth. profile. The Auth. profile is then maintain in the Context sensitive master data object P_ORGINCON !
(1)
Org Structure A
Maintain only infotype 7
(2)
Org Structure B
Maintain only infotype 14, 15
So... that's why i said if an employee has many role to perform duties in many different Org Structures (e.g. A, B, C...etc), you would create many relationship...
Hope this message will give idea to someone who intend to implement Context Sensitive Solution.

How To Create ABAP Code For HR Context Sensitive Structural Authorization

Hello,
We have created a HR Custom Program which IS NOT built off the PCH or PNP Logical Database. As a result, we need to manually create ABAP code for HR Context Sensitive Structural Authorization Check in our custom HR program. Via HR Context Sensitive Structural Authorizations, we are restricting access to personnel numbers and the underlying HRP* tables.
Any assistance would be greatly appreciated with the identification of the SAP standard function modules (Ex. RH_STRU_AUTHORITY_CHECK, HR_CHECK_AUTHORITY_INFTY, HR_CHECK_AUTHORITY_INFTY , etc) used in HR Context Sensitive Structural Authorization Check, how they are used to control HR Structural authorization (P_ORGINCON), and some sample code.
Thank you in advance for all your assistance,
Ken Bowers

Hello Ken
You can use the interface methods IF_EX_HRPAD00AUTH_CHECK to get the same structural authorization as you can see in PA20/PA30. You need to use the methods set_org_assignment and check_authorization for this purpose. For more information you can refer to include FP50PE21 from line 237 onwards till 270.

Hi Sanjiv,
do you you mean expand the Help Menu => Pull Help or do you mean
EPSS => push Help?
in case pull help please tell me exactly which system GUI or EP and version you are using.
many different scenarios are possible.

Automating context sensitive search in a

We are building an interface where the user has expressed a desire to
fill in fields based on choices from a list. The DropDown list would be
suitable, except for the limited search facility; the list only responds
to keys entered by finding a match on the first character position only.
The FillinField is more suitable because it has a more complete context
sensitive search than the Dropdown; as the user types, the list responds
by finding a match for all characters entered so far. The problem we are
encountering with the FillInField though, is that none of the search
facility is available unless the list is brought up by clicking the
arrow, or
pressing F4.
We would like to know if it is possible to automatically bring the list
up upon
entering the field, either by posting some event, or even simulating the
F4 keystroke. This would allow our users to compete data entry with the
minimal amount of keystrokes or mouse movement.
If this is not possible does anyone know of any other ways to achieve
what we want?
Thanks in advance.

RH10 - Context sensitive links to DUCC variable set

I'm using RH10 Webhelp and the project has four builds from a single source of topics. I am using DUCC for media type categories (radio, television, etc.). I've used build tags and user variables to provide specific information for each media type in one topic. The DUCC category selected determines which information the user sees.
The web application has context sensitive help links to appropriate topics in the help system. With DUCC implemented I need a way to include the appropriate variable set for the context media type.
The application will know if the context is radio or television. Since the context sensitive Help URL opens the default DUCC category only, I need a way to include which category to open in the Help link URL.(Something similar to the # addition to indicate opening the window with the TOC pane open would be nice.)
Without that instruction the user will end up on the default (let's say radio) topic when they really need to see the television version. The user would need to switch the DUCC category in the TOC (which closes the TOC completely) and then drill down through a huge TOC to find the same topic in the television list. Needless to say the user will become very annoyed with this process.
I would really like two options: to specify the variable set to use in the help link URL to open the appropriate topic AND to switch categories and automagically open the same topic in the new category if possible.
Thanks for your help! If there isn't a current solution, how do I lobby for an enhancement to RH?
karen

Sorry but I believe you can only open the help to the default category. In the short term could you have a single topic category telling users to pick their category. Not ideal but better than where you are.
Longer term please follow this link.
http://www.Adobe.com/cfusion/mmform/index.cfm?name=wishform&product=38
The problem I am seeing is if you call a topic that is in all categories Rh can display it but how would it know which category? However, that's for the Adobe guys to figure out.

RoboHelp V6 - Using Context Sensitivity with SAP R/3 ECC 6.0

We are creating online help/procedures using RoboHelp,
Version 6. We are also upgrading from SAP R/3 4.6c to SAP R/3 ECC
6.0. ECC 6.0 has different backend coding than 4.6c that does not
allow us, at the moment, to implement context sensitivity. My
question is this: Can RoboHelp V6 be integrated with SAP R/3 ECC
6.0 that will allow for context sensitivity? Does coding exist for
this to happen? What must take place for this to work properly? Any
assistance would be greatly appreciated.

Welcome to the forum.
I can't help you on the coding side but is using a URL an
option? If it is, then see my site where I explain how to call
webhelp using URLs. That includes how to open the help pointing to
a specific topic, thus giving you context sensitive help.

Error Opening 2nd Context-Sensitive Help Topic

Hi All,
We were having an issue that when opening a 2nd instance of the context-sensitive help (with the help already open), a blank window would appear and we would receive an "Access Denied" error related to the whcsh_home.htm file. I found the fix posted on Peter Grainge's site at http://www.grainge.org/pages/authoring/rh8/using_rh8.htm (thank you!), and this resolved the issue in IE7 and Firefox. However, our QA team is reporting that the issue still occurs in IE8.
Can someone please confirm that this fix works for IE8 as well as IE7 and Firefox? I'm able to load a 2nd instance of the help in IE8 on my computer without an issue after implementing this fix, so I think this is an issue specific to the tester's machine, but wanted to post here for any additional information.
Thanks in advance for any assistance.

I'm just now running into this IE 8 issue with my Robo HTML 6 WebHelp project. It worked (and continues to work) perfectly in IE
7, but not in IE 8. The fix didn't work for me. Any more info about (or fixes for) this one?
thanks

Add the context sensitive 'DFF Review Addl Information' to the appraisal

Hi,
I want to add the context sensitive DFF "Review Addl Information" to the appraisal screen.
How can I do it?
regards

Hi manoj,
Thanks for ur reply. The procedure you mentioned is to just enable DFF on self service page, I have already done that. What I want is to default DFF segments based on context value i.e Qualification Type in this case. It can be done in D2k forms , I want to do similar thing in JSP page.
There is some new functionality added in R12 to include reference fileds for DFF , but I am getting any concrete example so that I can implement it. If any one has done this , can please share.

Creation of context sensitive help with pure FM 12 usage doesn't work

Hi,
I hope somebody is able to help me with a good hint or tip.
I am trying to create a context-sensitive Microsoft Help with FM12 only using the abilities of FM (no RoboHelp). For some reasons, my assigned ID's are not used in the generated chm file and therefore the help does not work context-sensitively.
What did I do?
- I created my FM files and assigned topic aliases to the headers. I did this two ways: a) using the "Special" menue and assigning a CSH marker and/or b) setting a new marker of type "Topic Alias" and typing the ID. I used only numeric IDs like "2000" or "4200",
- I created a .h file (projectname.h) - based on the format of the file projectname_!Generated!.h (I read this in some instructions). So the .h file (text file) looks like this:
#define 2000 2000 /* 4 Anwendungsoberfläche */
#define 2022 2022 /* 4.1.1 Menü Datei */
#define 2030 2030 /* 4.1.3 Menü Parametersatz */
#define 2180 2180 /* 6.6.7 Objektdialog Q-Regler */
#define 2354 2354 /* 6.9.2 Objektdialog Extran Parameter */
#define 2560 2560 /* 6.9.5 Objektdialog Extran2D Parametersatz */
- I published the Microsoft HTML Help. A projectname_!Generated!.h has been created. My IDs were not used in this file:
#define 2000 1
#define 2022 2
#define 2030 3
#define 2180 4
#define 2354 5
#define 2560 6
- When I open the .chm file and look in the source code, the ID even is totally different. It is not the one, I assigned in FM, it is not the one which I assigned in the projectname.h file and it even is not the one, which was put in the projectname_!Generated!.h file. It is a generated name starting with CSH_1 ...n in a consecutive way numbered.
Example:
<a name="XREF_72066_13_Glossar"></a>Gloss<a name="CSH_1"></a>ar
What goes wrong? Why does FM not take my assigned IDs? I need to use these IDs since our programmers are using those already - I had to re-create the whole online help but the programs stay untouched.
Please help!
Many thanks
Mohi

Hi Jeff,
thanks for your note!
The text in my marker is just a number like "2000" or "4200". As said, I created manually a my.h file and used this marker there. E.g.
#define 2000 2000.
Whereby the first 2000 (in my opinion) is the marker text and the second 2000 is the context ID which the programmers are using for the context sensitive call of the help. My definitions in the my.h file were translated to #define 2000 1 (in the my_!Generated!.h file). The source code "translates" the context ID into CSH_8.
I am still confused :-/
Thanks
Mohi

How can I reference an external help file from context sensitive help at the control level?

My goal is to provide context sensitive help for each control displayed on the front panel using a help file created externally. I know that at the VI level I can specify a Help Path; I want the same behaviour for each control inside a VI. I also know about creating a custom control and specifying the Help Path in there, but it doesn't help in this situation, for I have hundreds of controls in my application and I cannot go back and replace each one with a unique .ctl. If I could override each instance of the custom control with unique path data that would do the trick, but that's not how it works.
Is there a way to add the Help Path information to regualr controls?
-euge
ne

This functionality is not yet built into LabVIEW.
About all you can do is cut and paste the help for each control into the description for the control. It is tedius but a finite task.

Is there a way to open context-sensitive help in a new window with RH10?

I'm linking my context sensitive help using the RoboHelp_CSH.js file to my web application.
The correct topic opens when I click the help link, but it opens in a pop-up window. This causes problems in Firefox and Chrome (which block pop-ups by default).
Is there anyway to force the context-sensitive help topics to open in a new window?
I've tried adding
<A HREF="javascript:RH_ShowHelp(0,'http:/myurl/index.htm', HH_HELP_CONTEXT, 100)" target="_blank">Help</A>
which opens an empty tab in Firefox with no content in it. And it doesn't work in Chrome either.
Has anyone else run into this? Any help is greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Colleen

Hi and welcome to the forums.
Using the RoboHelp API, that is quite a bother. (Read: major pain)
Fortunately, there is a simple solution:
<a href="http://myurl/index.htm#<id=4>>newwnd=false" target="blank">Help<a/>
This link does exactly the same, only opens the help in a new browser window.

IE 7 and Context-Sensitive FlashHelp

Hi all, I'm hoping that you can brainstorm with me. I have a
FlashHelp system with context-sensitive topics that are called from
the application using the
start_page.htm#topic_name.htm syntax. Up to now, this has
worked really well in all browsers (IE, Netscape, Firefox, Safari,
etc.). In the new IE 7, however, making this kind of call doesn't
display the CS topic, but instead opens the default topic
(start_page.htm). Likewise, the URL in the browser window only
displays
start_page.htm, with the
#topic_name.htm info removed. From testing we've done, it
appears that IE 7 receives the complete help call, but then somehow
ignores or truncates the CS topic info.
Has anyone else had this problem? Any ideas as to what is
causing it or (more importantly) how I might work around it?
Thanks,
Melinda

The updating of the help topic is distinct from the problem you are encountering. I believe this is a bug in FlashHelp.

Problems with context-sensitive HTML made from importing FM 10 to RH9

This worked in October and it doesn’t work now.
Start with a clean, well-formatted Frame 10 book with multiple chapters. Chapters, Heading 1, 2 and 3 headings have various FM Markers TopicAlias with ID for calling the help.
Example of FM marker: ID_HELP_SYSTEM_DEFAULT
Import FM book to RH 9 –pointed to an AllStyles.fm doc as a template, pagination on the above 4 headings, cross-refs mapped, on the Other Settings page the Context Sensitive Help Marker is set to TopicAlias.
Import looks spiffy; great TOC, Index, formatting, links, everything is exactly like I expected. Create chm file help. It looks great too. This part works well IMO.
My.h file is formatted with Hex number to match the application’s call.
Example:
#define ID_HELP_SYSTEM_DEFAULT 0x3F131
#define ID_HELP_EDITDATASET_TOOLBAR 0x3F132
Rename my mapping h file to BSSCDefault.h and put in root directory replacing the one RH makes. [When RoboHelp makes an h file, the numbers it assigns do not match what my application calls for. Changing these is not an option. I have hundreds of mapped IDs.]
Reopen RH and view the BSSCDefault. h file from RH. It has magically changed the Hex numbers to 6 digit numbers.
Example:
ID_HELP_SYSTEM_DEFAULT              258353      Saving Project Defaults as System Defaults
ID_HELP_EDITDATASET_TOOLBAR 258354      Editing Datasets Using the Mouse
The Mapped IDs are blue and are not locked. My FM TopicAlias Markers are all listed as Map IDs, I have Map#s for them and they point to the correct topic. The center panel shows Assign as grayed out. The project that worked in October looked just like this too, I checked.
Recomplie. Place new chm file in application. It will open from the menu item for Help, it will open from F1 but it will not open from any of the mapped Help buttons.
I uninstalled/reinstalled RH 9 and tried reimporting/compileing with an unpatched version. No change, still borked.
There has not been a change in the application; there are no new IDs in this version. I tried the new compiled help in an older version of my application and it will not work. Same behavior.
Any suggestions? Anyone else have this problem? What am i missing?

I dont use the settings file, I use a FrameMaker doc as a template. It has all my styles and I set the others before the import. There arent very many.
But, since you import from Frame, would you look at this and verify?
Looking at Map File in the Edit Map IDs dialog On the left the panel the Map ID is listed, then the Map # and finally the topic title.
Do your Topics show a notation at the end?
Example: Averaging Datasets #CSH_71
Then on the Topic panel if you find that same topic you see
Topic symbol -Averaging Datasets   [and the Topic properties show “no map ids for this topic]
Bookmark symbol -Averaging Dataset#CSH_71 [topic properties show the map id when you select it]
Bookmark symbol -Averaging Datasets#IX_averaging_datasets
Bookmark symbol-Averaging Datasets#XREF_25075_Averaging Datasets
I understand the Index and cross ref markers, but the isolated book mark is odd. You would think the notation would be on the topic
The chm file from October works in my latest build, and the developers swearz they changed NOTHING in the way it is called. I still have to talk to QM who do the builds just in case.
