Discoverer Security through Portal

We use Portal for displaying discoverer worksheets. In portal we select the "display to user using Publishers connection". However, when users click analyze on the report it prompts them for a password. Is there any way around this. We don't want users to have there own discoverer logins. We just want them to analyze the reports we setup in portal for them to view.
Thanks in advance on any help with this issue.

Take a look at the steps to integrate discoverer with single sign on (SSO). Then once a user has authenticated in Portal, they will be authenticated in Discoverer too.

Portal Runtime Error while accessing BW reports through portal

Hi,
We are facing portal runtime error(An exception occurred while processing your request. Please send the exception id to your portal administrator) while accessing BI reports through portal frequently.
We are unable to trace the error in the 'default trace' log file and although refreshing the cache solves this issue, it is difficult to explain this to every user individually.
After many such errors, We found one log entry, which we are now not yet sure if it is relevant. The error states:

Discoverer viewer in portal or Drill to detail in Disco report in Portal

Hi
Is it possible to embed discoverer viewer into Portal page. I know one way, I can achieve this in older versions by using <IFRAME src="worksheet url"></iframe> as HTML portlet. But, the problem here is that, our Discoverer viewer is SSO protected. So,I don't want user to single sign on again, as they have already have done that when they got into portal.
My second question is , I have developed Page-Detail report in Disco plus, also I have Drill to Detail in the same report. Drill to Detail is created using "Manage Link" option. When I deploy this report into Portal using Disco Portlet provider, firstly in portal it is not showing the Page Item, also the Drill through link also is not showing.
Any help on the above questions would be greatly helpful.
Thanks
Balaji

Hi
Firstly thank you very much for your response.
The Disco report I have is a Discoverer Plus report with Drill to Detail to another workbook(developed through manage link). But this Drillable link is not showing in the published Disco portlet. Are you saying that it should in the published disco portlet? .. As posted in previous response , I know this would work from Analyze link(which basically lauches viewer)..
But users would like to see this drillable link in the report in portal page itself(which means on the published portlet itself). To achieve this only, I used Iframes in Html portlet and showing the Discoverer viewer url. It works fine, but only thing is each time user naviges to portal page, it executes the report which takes some time. I am trying to avoid the execution process. I think one solution is I can just schdule these Disco reports and that way it will not query the database each time. I was wondering if there is any other solution maybe I am missing
Thanks
Balaji

Launching discoverer reports from portal, limitation..

Hi, I have already discussed this matter via a metalink SR to find that portal cannot launch a discoverer report using discoverer plus, but I have also been referred here by the metalink people so 'product management' can clarify whether the functionality we are seeking is never going to be implemented or if it may be in planning for the near future.
Specifically, the users want to be able to launch the discoverer reports in discoverer plus, through a portal application accessed on their browsers. (instead of discoverer viewer).
Thanks

Actually there is, we just had to work the metalink guys a bit harder. We found this in the Oracle Business Intelligence Discoverer Configuration
Guide.pdf (as found at http://download.oracle.com/docs/pdf/B13918_03.pdf)
Page 212 of 304:
13.5.3 Example 3: Starting Discoverer Plus
To start Discoverer Plus, connect automatically as jchan to the Sales EUL, open
a worksheet called January Analysis in a workbook called Monthly nalysis, you
might use the following URL:
http://<host.domain>:<port>/discoverer/plus?cn=cf_a156&opendbid=MONTHLY_
ANALYSIS&sheetid=179
So as the documentation claimed it to be a feature, we saught further help as the link structure above didn't quite work for us.
It was assigned to development and a patch was released: Patch# 5403717
Info:
Use a new URL parameter 'workbooksource' after the patch has
been applied.
URL Guide:

Hope that helps..

Authorization problem to execute a report through portal

Hi All,
One of user while trying to execute report through portal, getting error message saying that
"you are not authorized to execute the report XXXXXXX'
Can not load query <query name> (data provider <data provider name> No authorizations for requested service.
The report is a web template which is getting executed through portal.
User is having all the authorizations to execute the report(report autho as well as infoprovider autho also)
we have regenerated the user roles , done user comparision....every thing is OK.
Still unable to execute the report.
Please advice what can be done in this case....
Regards

Hi Shaik,
Are you able to run this report with your user id?
If so check the role or authorization objects which are missing to the user.
And also check whether he got portal roles assigned to his profile.

Unable to run a report through Portal.

Hi All,
I am not able to run a particular BEX report through portal.
I get a white screen and no pop-up for selections and later nothing happens.
I have checked my Roles but no changes has been made.
My other colleagues are able to run the report.
Please let me know what could be the possible reason/solution for such an issue.

are different roles assigned?
i.e., for you and for your colleagues. Please try login with your id in their PCs and vice versa.
let check the compatibility. if you are failed to execute in that PCs also, then it should be authorization issue. Ask your basis folks to add that particular info area and info cubes to your role.
Hope this would give you clear pic.

Issues while running a WebDynpro Application through portal.

Hi,
I am trying to execute a webdynpro application through portal and facing some issues. I hope to get a significant help from the experts:
> Initially, a report is called from the portal which in turns calls the WebDynpro Application.
> After this, I am again trigerring "FIRE" event in order to go back to report.
At this step, portal shows a message "The Page Can Not be Displayed". Browser link field contains the event name which I am passing to the Fire Event.
Can anybody let me know the root cause for this issue? Below is the piece of code that I am using for navigating from Webdynpro to Report.
        l_sapgui_manager->fire(
          EXPORTING
            name = 'INDI'
        parameters = lt_parameters ).
lt_parameters contains some field values which are required in the report.

DMS Document access through Portal

Hi Sap Gurus,
we are in the process of integrating SAP DMS with Enterprise portal 6.5, and SAP DMS on 6.0 SP 12, ie the latest Version,
when we try to access or view the documents in Portal, we could only see those which have been maintained through Easy DMS, ie.. the folders and documents created in EDMS only is visible
The Documents which are created in normal DMS, ie the document types and all the documents are not visible in Portal view. any one who have seen or managed DMS through Portal let me know can we see all the documents through Portal or only those maintained in Easy DMS,
can we avail all the funtionality in Portal to manage the documents just like we do in DMS. what are its limitation.
Pointa awaiting
Thanks and regards
Priya S

Hi,
The Kpro Tick is been given to all the document types i have configured,
i dont know if i have to enable any other KPRO feature apart from this,
if any one have made DMS and Portal integration, please let me know is Portal access is only for Document maintained by Easy DMS, or it is for all the documents of DMS, (is there any note to be implemented to avail this feature)
also we are planning to have Trex search engine for Portal file search, can this same Trex be used be for searching files inside DMS also.
Points eagerly awaiting.

BSP YHAP_DOCUMENT-working in BSP but not through portals

Hi!
I am using the BSP HAP_DOCUMENT to get column access for columns in the appraisal document for 'further participant' role.
for this i changed the mode in ydocuments_where_participated.htm to 'X' and also used the BADI HRHAP00_COL_ACCESS. in this badi i have changed the availability of the columns to 'X' and in the portals i gave this custom BSP and this ypage for the iview.
when i test the page in SE80 it is working perfectly but in the portals the column access is not working.
In the debugging mode of the BADI i see that the mode which is set to "X' in the BSP page is blank when run through portals. But if i test in se80 the mode is still 'X" when the badi is hit.
did anyone phase the same scenario?
any suggestions are greatly appreciated.
thank you
