Default Entry for Folder & Entry Point

Hello,
What's the difference between the two options ?
Thanks for your help

Christophe,
Could you be more clear ?
Entry point for what ? roles, entrypoints repository so on.
Entry points allow you to navigate from an iView to various KM folders that may be located in different repositories. You use entry points in the following places:
Entry Points iView
Selection screen (for example, when copying or moving items in KM folders)
Go To menu in KM navigation iViews

Default File for folder

Hi everybody
I have a KM Navigation iView which display the content of a folder.
On the left I have the files in a layoutset of a Tree, and when choosing one of the files, its preview appears on the right.
The problem is that by default, if you don't press any file the screen stays empty,
and you have to choose one of the files to preview it. I want that by default one of the files will be shown in the preview. Is it possible?
Can I display a document by default (like KM Document iView)and still navigate to other files in the KM?
I hope the question was clear. If it wasn't you are welcome to ask me any question.
Thanks in advance
Omer

hi
KM Navigation Iview you have to play arround target path to document and layoutset just check applying layout of KM Document iview to KM navigation iview and vice versa.But in this context You cannot have both the functionality in one iview unless you use custom developed.
Hope this helps you.please do not forget to give points

Changing the icon for Entry Points

Hi Everybody,
There are some default Entry Points for Pesonal Documents, Public documents, Recently used, Favourites etc. All these Entry points are being displayed with the default icon image. I want to replace these default images with custom images but couldnt see any property where i can change the image path for these folders. I checked the details of all these folders and even went through the properties but there it shows only the default image name speciefied for that folder and no active settings where i can change the image path for custom icon. Kindly suggest how to implement custom image for KM folder icons.

Hi Venkatesh,
check out this SAP Help page that describes how to use a new symbol for an entry point:

Entry Point Customization

My requirement is to enable end user to choose any particular workset or page as the default entry point. In other words, that workset or page should be the first to focus when the user hits the portal. Can this functionality be made personalized?
Thx for your help.
Tridib

Hi Tridib,
I don't quite get what you are trying to do.
If you set entry point to true for a workset, it won;t have any effect, since the role will still be the entry point (unless you change it).
Entry points only determine if the current role appears in the user's initial nodes, and which of the nodes in the role is displayed as the root. It does not determine priority.
If you have all the info you need, great. Forget about this post. If not, can you explain the functionality you want to provide?

Default entry for Folder property - Changed behavior in SP14???

Hello,
Has anyone run into changed behavior for this page property in SP14. It seems to be valid for pages in both folders and worksets.
Ex. We have a workset that sits at 2nd level nav just below a 1st level entry point. So the workset is a 2nd level nav choice. The top page in that workset is the landing page for that nav and previously in SP9 the nav worked fine. We are finding now that in SP14 we have to set the Default Entry for Folder property to "yes" to make the 2nd level nav work. This could be another config issue in our environments but is following SP14 so far. Has anyone else sen this?
Thanks,

Hi Daniel,
NavStructure:
... - Folder A
 - Page A <inv & defPage>
 - Page P1
 - Page P2
If you click on folder A, you get the content of page A which for the end-user is not explicitely visible in navigation. So page A "is" the content of folder A.
This is how web-like nav works, that you can click on a nav entry and that this entry has it's own content and not only the preset content of some sub entry.
Hope it helps to understand what I meant

Hi, I have followed the steps of the help about configuring entry points for iviews:
1.-> in the pcd I have created a folder to store iviews for WPC.
2.->I have gived read permission.
3.->I have desactivated the hide root folder check por pcd repository.
4.->I have created a folder in km.
I am loosing in the step "Create a entry point for the folder that you created in step x".
How link the pcd folder that store the iviews with the km folder?
when I try to create a entry point I only can see km folders, How can I choose my pcd folder?
Thanks.
Regards.

Try this:
Procedure
1. Choose System Administration → System Configuration → Knowledge Management → Content Management → User Interface → Mapping → Component.
2. Edit the wpcDragExplorerEntryPoints configuration object.
Use the following parameters:
Parameter: Description
displaymode:Specify select
maxproviderprio: Highest priority number that standard entry points can have and still be displayed in the Web content browser
entriesperrow: Number of entry points displayed in each row (default: 5)
entrypointsprefix: Prefix of the entry point repository: If you specify a value for this parameter, standard KM entry points are also displayed in the Web content browser.
Default: /entrypoints
sharedcontent: Semicolon-separated list of paths to be displayed as global entry points for shared content
Examples of parameter values (for sharedcontent param):

Hi,
Can you try with a Generic Wrapper like JNative (it contains a method to list all exported functions of a dll : even mangled ones) ?

Entry Point for internal KM links

Hi,
Using a KM Navigation iView (LinkListExplorer Layout Set) I want to add a link to an internal KM document using "Organize Entries" -> Context Menu -> New -> Link. When I press browse I can start browsing from where the link will be inserted, but I want to start browsing for the target "higher" in the KM structure. A shot in the dark was to set the Root Folder for Navigation parameter to where I wanted to start browsing (but this did not help).
Someone got a solution for this, or can point me in the right direction?
best,
Bjorn

Hi,
In the KM Navigation iview you have two parameters:
Path to Initially Displayed Folder: from where you want to navigate.
Path to Root Folder for Navigation: you can leave in blank this field.
When you press Organize Entries, you can only navigate from where you have defined in the iview.
An approach is you can use entry point repositories, when you press browse link button, you are going to see these repositories. These entries are going to appear as Favorites, Personal Documents, Public Document so on.. in More link you see all your entry points.
Patricio.

Does the default login entry point have to be on the leftmost tab?

I have a page that is within the role at the rightmost position of my top-level navigation, and I want that page to be displayed first when a user logs into the portal.
Is it posible to override the default landing page being the entry point of the leftmost tab?

Hi John,
Why cant a "quick link" be established.
When logging into portal use the quick link to login. I think using this concept you role can be opened by default when logged in.

Creating second InfoView entry point for SAP users in XI 3.1

Hi All,
I have BOE XI 3.1 up and running with the Business Objects Integration kit SAP Solutions kit I would like to create a second infoview entry point for SAP users on the same physical box (single server) as regular InfoView.
I am trying to mock this up and have detailed the following steps below. I suspect I am missing a few steps (for example, where do I specify the entry port?). I am sure step 2 is wrong, as I the desktoplaunch no longer exists in Xi 3.1
1. Copy the InfoView.war file to a new directory ( Program Files/Business Objects/ Business Objects Enterprise 12.0/java/applications/sap). I imagine I would need to rename the war file (say SAPInfoview.war)?
2. Create a xml file with the following logic (the part in bold I consider to be wrong...):
<Context docBase="Program Files\Business Objects\Business Objects Enterprise 12.0\java\applications\sap\SAPInfoview.war" path="/
businessobjects/enterprise115/desktoplaunch"
crossContext="false" debug="0" reloadable="false"
trusted="false"/>
3. Save the xml file (what name? does it matter) in Program Files\Business Objects\Tomcat55\conf\Catalina\localhost
4. Restart Tomcat
5. Change the web.xml to make SAP security the default. But this should not be the regular infoview web.xml. I'm not sure where this would reside.
Thanks,
Steve

Hi Ingo,
You've been working with Duncan and Sartaj on this. The client has two set of users: non HR which has no BW or R/3 authorization restrictions, and HR, which has authorization restrictions.
They have deployed SSO using AD for the non HR users. They also want to leverage InfoView rather than the SAP portal. For the HR users, we therefore need to capture the SAP id and password at login time to enforce security at the BW and R/3 levels. We could use the existing Infoview entry point (SSO will fail and they will be prompted for a SAP login). I do remember that we offered a second InfoView entry point for SAP users in XIR2. I thought this may be more elegant.
Thanks,
Steve

Transport KM rooms as entry point for broadcasting from Portal 7.01 to Portal 7.4 possible?

Hallo together,
is it possible to transport entry points (for broadcasting) from one portal to another?
For our upgrade BW 7.01 to BW 7.4 we want to transport the KM Content (including the rooms).
Transporting the rooms and room structures is no problem, but the transported rooms are not visible in ENTRY POINTS -> My Room Folders.
Only rooms that are newly created in the 7.4 Portal are visible in that folder.
Is there are way to make the transported rooms also visible there?
Thanks and best regards!

Hi Ramakrishna!
I know that WP-PI 6.00 will work fine with R/3 4.6C but my doubt is if I can use WP-PI 6.00 (which is
EP 6.00 plug-in) to connect the R/3 4.6c with an EP 7.00.
I didn´t find anything like WP-PI 7.00 in SAP Marketplace. I´ve already read the note you pointed out but it refers to EP 6.00. It also says you can use WP-PI 6.00 por EP 5.0 or Sap Workplace. But can I also use it with EP 7.00?
Thanks for your help.

Entry point for copying room content

Hi ,
We are having a lot of collaboration rooms ,and am thinking if there is
an easy way of transferring content from one room document folder to another
room's document folder. Copying shows some entry points like public documents,
personal documents etc but copying to any of these is not what I need.
Afterwards how can I copy to the respective room document folder which is
identifiable only by a long roomid in KM Content ?It s a long list .
So is it possible to add an entrypoint for our rooms in entrypoint
providers? If so what entry can i have for the provider class?
Thanks in advance
Regards
Vineeth

Hello,
If you want to make a extra entrypoint read the following.
in the help link they describe how you can add one using the entry points provider etc...
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/54/3d754067025537e10000000a1550b0/frameset.htm
Another entry point like solution for your problem could be to make a folder with links to all KM folders you need to link to. You can add a picture to each of these links by picking the properties > settings > rendering tab.
If you change the layoutset of this folder to the entrypoints layoutsset. you have a screen that looks like entry points.

Web Page Composer: Problems creating entry points for iViews

Hi experts, i´ve been trying to add an iView to a page. I know i have to create an entry point to a folder created on the PCD.
I followed instructions on help link http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw70/helpdata/EN/06/4776399abf4b73945acb8fb4f41473/content.htm
Now, when i try to create a new entry point link to the pcd folder i don´t see any navigation that can get me to the pcd.
Actually When i click the browse button it opens the Web Content folder where i can see 2 subfolders
- Cross-Site Content
- Sites
I also have this options:
- Favorites
- Personal Documents
- Recently used
- Common folders
- Public Documents
None of it seems to be the access to the PCD.
I´ll appreciate any help
Thanks in advance

Hi Sandeep,
i don't know if your problem was solved already.
Here a quick overview of all steps, that you need to perform.
1. Make your PCD available in the KM.( See Link below for details) Your folders need to have 'Read'-Permission for the Everyone-group!
2. Search your iView-folder now in the KM. Look at Details -> Properties -> Access Links -> ID
3. Provide this ID in the wpcDragExplorerEntryPoints . (Should be sharedcontent=/wpccontent/Cross-Site Content;/documents/MyFolder; /pcd)
