Custom ESS Role

Question

Hi,
I have created custom ESS roles and set up the homepage framework accordingly. The homepage framework settings seems to be fine, it points to my custom resources and so on. The problem I face is when I go into an application. For example, entering the the "My Trips and Expenses" and clicking on "Possible Actions" in the table it always takes me back to the standard role. How/where can I control the behaviour of those links?
I am running ESS SP 10 on ERP 2005, Netweaver 2004s.
Thanks!

That one behaves like an odd bird. It is PERFECTLY acceptable to create your own Z-version of your ESS config. That's not your problem.
I know this will sound odd but for example....for your "My Trips" resource....
Your RESOURCE config will look as follows:
Description     Travel & Expense: All My Trips and Ex
Server                                              
Directory Path                                      
Object Name     FITV_POWL_TRIPS                     
URL Parameter   SAP_FITV_EXIT_OP=CallAreaPage       
Window Name                                         
Window Properties                                   
URL of Resource Object
ROLES://portal_content/(PCD path to your EXPENSES iView/service)
URL of PCD Page
ROLES://portal_content/(PCD path to your ALL MY TRIPS iView/service)        
I know, it is VERY strange that your define that "expenses" iView path in the first URL and then your actual path in the second one. BUT IT WORKS!
Have fun.
