Accessing ECC system via portal

Hello,
We are in the process of implementing netweaver 2004s components for one of our client. In the landscape we have ECC6.0, BI 7.0 and XI 7.0. We are planning to use Enterprise Portal for the SSO activation. Presently the client is having windows active directory.
My question is if I need to integrate ECC6.0 with the EP for the SSO, is there any portal development effort is required?. How do we access the ECC from the portal. For each ECC tcode do we need to create any iviews? Kindly advice.
Regards
Sachin

Hi Sachin,
You can easily do that. Create you transaction iview using "Session_Manager" transaction. This transaction will bring the user on initial screen as he gets in ECC after logging. Due to this Iview he will be able to see the menu bar as in traditional ECC screen. So from there the user can navigate to other transactions as well for which the user is authorized.
You can create the transaction ivews from portal following these steps:
1) Logon to portal with Content Administrator Role.
2) Select Content Administration> Portal Content. On Right Side Select Portal Content.
3) Right Click Portal Content>new>iview. On right side select Iview Template out of three radio buttons. Click Next.
4) Select SAP Transaction Iview from the list of Iview Templates.
5) Provide Iview Name, ID properties.
6) Select SAP GUI Type say "SAP GUI for HTML" for HTML.
7) Here Select your System Alias name to which you want to connect, TCode need to be accessed. Click Next and then Finish.
If your system is successfully created and running then you will be able to preview the iview.
I hope the information provided will be very useful to you..

Parallel portal implementation in a non-unicode landscape

Hi All,
We have existing 3 system landscape with 3 systems in it.
DEVQASPRD.All of these systems are non-unicode.
The java add-in cannot be installed on them because the unicode java stack cannot talk to nonunicode abap stack.The customer does not wants to get his systems conerted to unicode.
So, how the portal implementation can be carried out in such a scenario?
We want to have an IPC installed too.
Can the communication happen in the following manner.
PRD(non-unicode)--->ipc--->EP.
PRD writing the pricing configurations on the ipc database and EP picking up the data from ipc??
Regards,
Prasanna

Hello,
We have the ECC 6.0 abap only as the backend.
Can the internet pricing configurator of the ECC 6.0 stack (VMC IPC) communicate with the portal to extract the pricing?
Since SAP IPC comes as a part of kernel for abap basic 7.0 and is it necessary to install the standalone IPC for it communicate with the portal.

Steps to configure R/3 system to Portal implementation

Hi
Please provide steps to configure R/3 system to Portal implementation
when i m opening standard iview in ESS in portal i m getting following runtime error.
com.sap.tc.webdynpro.services.exceptions.WDRuntimeException: Failed to resolve JCO destination name 'SAP_R3_SelfServiceGenerics_MetaData' in the SLD. No such JCO destination is defined in the SLD.
Please help
Thanks

Hello Bhupinder Singh,
To use ESS/MSS services in Portal follow the following Steps
Maintaining jCo Connections
Use
jCo connections are used in iViews to connect directly to a backend. They are delivered with the portal content and must be activated (configured to access a specific system).
jCo connections have two parts: one with <jCo name>, and the other with suffix <jCo Name>_MetaData. The first one transfers user-specific data within the scenario; the other transfers only the needed metadata. For the jCo with name <jCo name>, SAP Logon Ticket is recommended as an authentication method. For the metadata connection, a user ID and password is needed. A system user created before is sufficient.
Procedure
Within this guide we generically describe the step-by-step procedure for an example connection set. Perform all steps for the following jCos:
u2022     SAP_R3_Financials / SAP_R3_Financials_Metadata
u2022     SAP_R3_HumanResources / SAP_R3_HumanResources_MetaData
u2022     SAP_R3_SelfServiceGenerics / SAP_R3_SelfServiceGenerics_MetaData
u2022     SAP_R3_Travel / SAP_R3_Travel_MetaData
u2022     SAP_R3_SelfServiceGenerics_MetaDataFIN
1.     Open the Web Dynpro Tool Applications overview page of your SAP NetWeaver Application Server Java: (http://<host>.<domain>:<port>/webdynpro/welcome)
2.     Select the Content Administrator link (or use a direct link, such as http://<host>.<domain>:<port>/webdynpro/dispatcher/sap.com/tcwdtools/Explorer) and logon with j2ee administrator rights
3.     Choose the Maintain JCo Destinations button.
4.     The available jCos are displayed with a red light, indicating that they are not yet maintained.
5.     In the JCo Destination Details iView, choose the Create button for the jCo you want to create.

Maximal Pool Size     <keep default value>
Maximum connections     <keep default value>
Connection Timeout (msec.)     <keep default value>
Maximum Waiting Time (msec.)     <keep default value>
7.     Choose Next.
8.     In J2EE Cluster, make the following entries:
Field name     User action and values     Note
Use Local J2EE engine <SID> on <host>     Selected     Keep default values
9.     Choose Next.
10.     In Connection Type u2013 Data Type, make the following entries:
Field name     User action and values     Note
Data Type     Dictionary Meta Data     Dictionary Meta Data selected for <jCo_name>_MetaData; Application Data selected for <jCo_name> maintenance
Destination Type     Load-balanced Connection (recommended)     For Dictionary Meta Data Connection, the value cannot be changed
11.     Choose Next.
12.     In Msg. Server Connection, make the following entries:

New Portal Implementation Questions?

Hi,
We've just started a Portal Implementation in our company. Our environment is as follow:
- EP 6.0 SP9 (NW04 SR1 version)
- SAP 4.6C System (WPPI installed)
- Lotus Notes/Domino (we are using Domino LDAP)
My Questions are as follow:
1. Can we integrate Domino LDAP with portal? If not how can we access domino user database in this environment?Because all company users exist in domino database but small subset of company users have SAP user.
2. Currently I've created a system for 46C r3 system in system landscape and set it to use UIDPW for user management. I've mapped one of portal user with a SAP user and created iviews to run with wingui and webgui. All worked successfully. My question is that if there is any wey to enable SAP users to logon Portal without mapping? Online Docs. says that it is not possible to use R3 systems other than based on 620 WAS as a datasource for UME.
Regards

Hi Huseyin,
You need to create system in EP.
System administration>System Configuration>system landscape-->
1) create one folder like "system"
2) create system in the above folder
3) Enter all the details of R/3 System
4) create Iview and link to the R/3 system
you could allways look at the manual:

- Is there a specific Business package for PP/MM/SD modules?
- Is there a ground zero point / basic documentation regarding portal implementation on these modules?
- What do you recomend me about it?
Thanks in advancce,
André

Portal Implementation for SAP Land Management Module?

Hi Gurus,
Has anyone done the Portal Implementation on SAP Land Management Module?
If so please share the documnets and also Please let me know is there any Business packages available for this module?
Thanks in Advance,
Dharani

Hi chandra,
You first need to understand the requirement of the business first because if there are 600 reports in legacy system you no need to presume that you need to develop 600 coz of the multidimensional report of BI you can club so many requirements in to one report. And you have to decide, up to what extent the Business content reports would be helpful. If the BC report meets the requirement it is as simple as that to activate and use it. But if the BC report wont meet the business requirement then you need to estimate the efforts to develop. Here you need to keep in mind that the standard extractors would be fine or need to enhance or need to go for Generic extraction. And also the HCM reports are big tricky and lot of data issues would rise. By considering all this you need to plan the days of work to complete all the reports.
I hope you understood what i am trying to explain.
Thanks,

Skills required fir portal Implementation

Hi
What type of Skills required for Oracle Portal Implementation? Java/HTML?
Thanks

portal development is not like webpaging and so it does not ONLY need html.
however, it depends upon what role one wants to play in oracle portals. for a developer of merely portal forms and reports, java is not essential, but html is necessary for controlling and understanding formatting options. because, one may use the other route of using pl/sql. but a good familiarity with databases would be a must.
so i would say it would go like this:
1. a good familiarity with the databases and their design and implementations,
2. pl/sql or java: to interact with the oracle portal utilities and features;
3. and some interface development technologies: html plus dhtml/ javascript, xml, css, macromedia, etc.

More Easy Points...Portal Implementations

Hi all,
   I'm looking for information about portal implementations - project plans, staffing for the implementation, lessons learned, etc.
   I will happily award points for the right information.
   Thanks.
Dave

Hi,
You can deploy the portal in stages, for each of which you will need an implementation plan
that is distinct to the landscape.
The following are the key stages in which you plan and implement the portal landscape:
1. Development
The development stage consists of installation of the Portal Platform for content
development.
2. Integration and Testing
Integration and testing stage involves fine-tuning and troubleshooting issues, such as,
validating installations and testing the content developed during the development
stage.
3. Production
In the production phase, you scale the portal and implement high availability solutions.
Since you must deploy the portal in stages, any change implemented after completing the
production stage, such as, applying upgrades, support packages, patches, and other
applications changes the environment.

Ameya

Documentation of Portal Implementation - Experiences Required!

Dear EP Experts & NW Gurus,
I would like to know:
1)Any amount of portal implementation includes creation of Portal objects and PAR files, systems etc etc..
Moving these portal objects from one env to other some times involves changing few properties..Here i would like to know as to how are the EP developers documenting the Portal Developement?
2) How are the diff companies & consultants following the process of Design, Specs, TestCases & implementation?
Since there are so many properties involved for portal objects, these properties need to be documented so that if some problem happens in prod system then the docs can be consulted to find out whether the properties are correct or not?
3) How does SAP themselves do the documentation of their releases?Is there some tools that they have created which queries some kind of databases & which just dumps the properties etc into some excel format...?
Why i am asking this is bcos (in our case) after such a large implementation (hundreds of portal objects & tons of config..), the docs which we created have become so heavey and big it sometimes becomes diff to manage the docs manually. & then when we have team scenario,(where many ppl work & new ppl come & join..)these docs maintainance is painfull.
4) Most of the time after implementaion, where the support starts and when old iView keeps on changing as per new req, <b>is there any Standard way by which we can maintain the versions of Portal objects and config..??</b>
Please remember that i am talking abt all the phases of Soft Dev (High level Design, Specs, TestCases)..
I would like to discuss what kind of documennation does SAP & others do for portal implementations..
Regards
Gaurav

Hi Dagfinn,
Thanx for the reply..
I also think that the documentation should never become a burden..but a boon..
- Can you explain in detail about the first point (writing script)..are u saying that by some means i traverse the PCD and pickup the portal objects etc..
- We are on NW and have also configuared JDI recently. But how to use JDI for such kind of requirement.
Also as i asked, do u have any knowledge about Version Maintanance of Portal Objects?
The reason why i am again asking this is because what has happened recently is that since many ppl work on same objects and later on if an administrator wants to debug that who has changed what property -> it becomes diff to find out. even if i find that who has changed by "Changed by" but out of soo many propertes of any iView, which one was changed????
Regarding your answer about PCD Databases Browser.. in thread (Changing name of PCD object EP 6.0 SP11)
<i>Yes,
You can use the PCD database browser to change pcd properties, though I am not sure if it is included in NetWeaver.
Dagfinn</i>
I am on SP11 & SP9, and i am able to find that tool, but still not able to successfully connect. As soon as i connect, i willlet u know...
What about the other people here in SDN, what do the others have to say...??

Hi Rajiv,
Configuration of Licence the Basis team will help you .
Regarding you want to make sap GUI transaction & Report accessable to all users.
You have to follow the step
1. Define the system in Portal which will connect backend ECC.
2. You have to create iview ,Page, worksets and roles
3. Roles need to assign into User.
I am just breafing the things .. Please specify your requirement and at which stage you are in.

ESS: ECC 5 and Portal 7.0

Hi!
Righ now for the Employee and Manager Self Services Scenario we have the following landscape installed:
- SAP ERP Central Component 5.0
     SAP_BASIS     640     0013
     SAP_HR          500     0020
     EA-HR          500     0020
- SAP Enterprise Portal 7.00 (Netweaver 2004s) Stack 08
- ESS Business Package for ERP 2004 60.2 SP0 (deployed in the SAP Enterprise Portal 7.00)
- MSS Business Package for ERP 2004 60.1 SP1 (deployed in the SAP Enterprise Portal 7.00)
The installed XSS components are:
- SAPPCUI_GP 100 SP11 (deployed in the SAP Enterprise Portal 7.00)
- SAP_ESS 100 SP11 (deployed in the SAP Enterprise Portal 7.00)
- SAP_MSS 100 SP11 (deployed in the SAP Enterprise Portal 7.00)
In this landscape I have found some problems like the exception "com.sap.tc.webdynpro.services.exceptions.WDRuntimeException: Exit-Plug must no be triggered with an URL when running in portal. Use portal navigation instead to navigate to another application!" when we use the "Return to Overview Page" link after changing personal information.
For the investigation that I have made this XSS components should have been deployed in a WAS Java 6.40.
So the options now are:
- 1) install a java add-in for the ECC and deploy on it the XSS components
- 2) install a java stand-alone exclusively for this XSS components
- 3) install an Enterprise Portal 6.40 and deploy the Business Packages and XSS components on it
- 4) leave this as it is.
For the option 4) can you tell us what are the know restrictions for the use of the XSS components in 7.0 Java? Is the above error just the only problem for this landscape?
For option 2) The same XSS componentes on WAS Java can be used for both development and quality systems? Or there is a need to have distinct XSS components for each (development and quality) backend system?
Just another question for option 3), in this scenario the portal where the Business Packages will be installed can be used for development and quality systems? Or there is a need to have distinct Business Packages for each (development and quality) backend system?
Many thanks in advance!
Best regards,
Pedro

Hi, Pedro.
I Have the same problem, could you help me, i have portal 7.0 and ecc 5.0, xss components 100, but in this moment i don´t know what solution could be implemented in the enterprise.
Is necesary that i have to install a web as 6.40 and install in this server the xss components, or there are other solution, maybe a patch or a note.
Thanks so much.

Enterprise Portal Implementation - Cost wise.

Hi Experts,
Had a few questions/doubts in my mind regarding the costing side of implementation of Enterprise portal.
If i take an example that an Enterprise has SAP ECC 6.0 implemented, and would need to implement ESS/MSS packages !!!
Can someone please help in explaining :-
- What amount would an enterprise need to spend to get the EP packages?
- Availability of different packages provided by SAP?
- The licensing cost and what all different packages are available provided by SAP.
Thanks,
Puneet

Hello,
please discuss issues like this with your account manager at SAP and not officially in SDN.
