Performance Light Framework page and R/3 transactions

Hello,
I have a customer running an enterprise portal 6.0 containing basically R/3 transaction iViews.
Some of the users of this solution are using fairly low bandwidth and are complaining about performance problems.
My question is whether there is anything to gain from switching to the light framework page, or is the loading of the R/3 transaction the main bottleneck.
Has anyone made an estimate of the performance gains obtained by using the light framework page over the standard ones?
I have just found one such estimate on this forum, indicating a size improvement of almost a magnitude of 8 (100K vs 800K) (thread: portal performance optimization over low speed links)

Here is the text that explains the disappointing restriction in the release of External Facing Portal with KM in NW04s SP5 and NW04 SP14.
NOTE 709354 relevant snippet below>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
Release with restrictions
Knowledge Management in external facing portals
Knowledge Management is released in a restricted way for scenarios where the external facing portal capabilities of NW'04 SP 14 are used (i.e. reducing the network load by using the 'light framework page' concept of the portal): - KM iViews will work within the light framework page without erros. However, the network load will not be decreased since the navigation within the KM iViews requires the full range of scripts to be downloaded from the portal. - Browser Back/Forward navigation within KM will not work in all cases - Indexing of KM content by external search engines (Google, etc.) will not work on all content In addition, the general usage of KM in scenarios where untrusted (e.g. with a self-registered user ID) or anonymous users are accessing an external facing portal is recommended in a restricted way only to avoid upload of malicious files or code (e.g. disable file upload or discussion forum entries). This recommendation is true even if the 'light framework page' concept of NW'04 SP14 is NOT used. For more information on how to enable KM (and Collaboration) for anonymous users, please refer to the following notes. SAP NetWeaver '04 SP11 and below: Note 728106. SAP NetWeaver '04 SP12 and higher: Note 837898.

Problem with Absolute Navigation (External Window) and Light Framework Page

Hi All,
We are using Light Framework page for the portal devolopment. We have an application including two webdynpro iviews where absolute navigation is used to traverse from first iview to second iview (When user clicks a button on first iview). We are showing the second iview in external window (SHOW_EXTERNAL). When ever i clicks the button to traverse to second iview, i am getting an exception.
When we are showing it in same window (SHOW_INPLACE), it is working fine. But the iview is appeared in half of the page with scrollbars. It is working fine with default framework page (with both options SHOW_INPLACE and SHOW_EXTERNAL) and dispalyed in original size as mentioned in iview properties.
Could you please suggest us whether there is any work around for this.
Thanks,
Sudheer

Hi Kathiresan
I couldn't see the address bar of the window (In which second iview is getting displayed). But i can observe no parameters that i passed from first iview is visible in the view source of the second iview (When SHOW_EXTERNAL is used in absolute navigation). I could see all the parameters in the view source (when SHOW_INPLACE is used for absolute navigation). But i am using the same url for both the options (for SHOW_INPLACE and SHOW_EXTERNAL).
I doubt about the url being passed when SHOW_EXTERNAL option is used. But when we checked in debug, The correct url is being triggered (Atleast from first iview). Is there any way that could display the second window with address bar. What is making difference between SHOW_INPLACE and SHOW_EXTERNAL with absolute navigation and light framework page.
Could someone please suggest.
Thanks,
Sudheer.

Customizing Light Framework and desktop

We have an internal need for using the light framework and desktop. I don't like to modify the SAP provided items but instead would rather create delta links and modify those.
I created a delta link of
-Light Desktop (contains my CSS and my light framework page)
-Light FrameworkPage
-Light Detail Navigation (changing the start at navigation level to 1)
-Searched and found the Light Detailed Navigation Page did a delta link copy and then modified it
Modified the delta link copy of the Light Framework Page
Here's the rub - I'd like to modify the Light Desktop Innerpage. I'm hitting the wall here. I created a new page but the layout needed (Light Navigation Panel & Content Area Layout) doesn't show. Can't find the Light Desktop Innerpage in the portal content (it's there via the properties of the framework page - but finding that page I can't seem to find it.
So - how do I create my own desktop innerpage (would like to base it on light desktop innerpage)?
Regards,
Diane

Hi
The par file for Desktop inner page is com.sap.portal.innerpage
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/b4/771158e4cb4bf6af9974380948db86/frameset.htm
The desktop inner page is on of the iview present in DefaultFramework page of Portal which is a single portal page containing default iViews and pages.
The default framework page supplied with SAP NetWeaver Portal provides the navigational and structural components required to navigate and operate the portal. we can modify the default framework page or create our own framework pages to meet the requirements.
Its Location in Portal Catalog: Portal Content -> Portal Users -> Standard Portal Users -> Default Framework Page (pcd:portal_content/every_user/general/frameworkpage)

Add to favourites disabled when using light framework page

Hi,
When using the light framework page our "add to favourites" link is disabled. If we instead use the normal framework page add to favourites in the dropdown menu works. Does anyone have an idea why this could be?
Regards
Mattias

Hi,
The reason why I decide to use Light Framework, itu2019s because Iu2019m creating an EFP, and Iu2019m using the WPC to publish the content (articles, news, and link list), using the standard Web Forms.
The problem is, after adding to a WPC Page something so simple like an article (using the Web Form Article), no Portal iView, HTMLB or other stuff included, the preview of the WPC Page using the Default Framework Page is ok, but when using the Light Framework Page, the text in the article doesnu2019t have the correct font-family. It looks like there are some styles missing in the Light Framework Page, that WPC content is expecting.
Thanks and Regards,
John

only the look and feel of the External Site Visitor Page must be changed. All the other pages should be having the default look and feel of oracle
Can any one suggest me on how to achieve the required output...

WDA loading in Light Framework page

We are running WebDynpro ABAP pages in the EP 7. This works with "normal" and with Light-Framework pages. But we have noticed one thing. While the "fat" EP page requires longer seconds for loading, the loading of the embedded WebDynpro starts already during this time, hence in parallel.
0 Secs EP page called
1 Secs WebDypro called
3 Secs EP pages finished
6 Secs WebDynpro finished
With the light framework the WD loads only after the EP pages is loaded
0 Secs EP called
2 Secs EP Page finished, WDA starts loading
7 Secs WDA finished
Is there a chance to overcome this, so starting the loading already during loading of the EP page. Any hint is appreciated. BTW, it is not about the quantity of 1 secs, this is just an example. Real world examples show this effect more dramatically.

Problem in Shuttle region in a custom OA framework page

Hi,
We are facing the following problem in a OA framework custom requirement. Urgent help is needed!!
Problem Description:
1. We have two shuttle regions in our OA page. One is Organization and next department.
2. The Department shuttle is dependent on the Organization shuttle meaning, when user selects some Organizations in the trailing list of the Org shuttle. Departments pertaining to those orgs must be displayed in the leading list of the next shuttle i.e Departments so as to restrict the user to select only the departments pertaining to the already selected orgs.
3. Both shuttles are on the same rergion and context.
We have tried to leverage PPR but without any effect. Also if we make the VO for the Dept shuttle dynamic according to the Org selection the values dont change dynamically on the next shuttle.
Please suggest a suitable approach.
Your attention to this is much appreciated.
Regards,
Avinandan.

Avinandan,
My suitable approach starts with the following step:

ESS Business Package with External Facing / Light Framework

Hi all,
We are using an external facing portal with light framework page and we now start with ESS/MSS Business Packages.
Unfortunately e.g. ESS szenarios aren't working in our framework. I found out, that "strange" urls are used and that the session is terminated with the dsm.Terminator
(http://XXXX/irj/servlet/prt/portal/prtroot/com.sap.portal.dsm.Terminator)
Strange url which is called within light framework:
Browser submitted values to
http://XXXX/irj/portal?standAlone=true&WebDynproNamespace=sap.com/pcui_gp~xssutils&WebDynproApplication=XssMenuArea&DynamicParameter=sap.xss.menuhdr%3DSAPDEFAULT%26sap.xss.menuargrp%3DSAPDEFAULTESS_ERP2005%26sap-epcm-guid%3D4B4BF671AD569E176974193671944A9426C53F2A1765A289E821F4F42AF23713%26sap.xss.menuarea%3DEMPLOYEE_SEARCH_ERP2005&HistoryMode=0&windowId=WID1216035848750
If I use ESS with the default desktop it works.
I found the following Note with restrictions for External Facing Portal and Light Framework Page:
Note 916545 - Central Note for External-Facing Portal (NW 7.0) =>
https://service.sap.com/sap/support/notes/916545
Here an extract:
=====================================================================
IV RESTRICTIONS
=====================================================================
Unsupported Content: SAP business packages and applications that use the EPCM's WorkProtect Mode feature may not work properly when using the light framework page. (e.g. Web Dynpro based applications of the portal administration UI or custom build applications.)
What does may not work properly mean? Does anyone know if there are some "features" that makes it possible to run ESS szenarios in an external facing portal?
Is it possible to activate the WorkProtected Mode and Session Termination in the framework having in mind that some performance gain for the light framework is gone?
How did you implement ESS?
Thanks and regards,
Stefan

Hi Gopal,
I already tried to replace e.g. in the inner page the Light Content Area iview with the normal Content Area iView.
With this change at least the height of the Overview Page will be displayed correct.
I'm still facing other problems that the DSM Terminator is being called regardless of the EPCF level (0, 1, 2).
Changing the epcf level doen't change anything.
Do you know what's the technical difference between the Light Content Area iView and the normal one?
Regards,
Stefan

Portal Light Framework

Hi,
I am using the light framework page, but currently on the right panel getting where you hover on this side of the page a "Content Area" label appear.
This appears to be generated in a <span> tag. Anyone know how this can be removed or changed??
Is this part of the framework and the tag
<workAreaContainer>
Can this be changed?
Thanks

Created a normal iView and selected WDP template.
