Enterprise Comp Management
Hi guys,
I have been trying to figure out the place where the ECM resides in ECC 5.0. As far as I see, only PA - CM is available under PM. Do I need to have something additional(like extn 2.0) or something like that ? If it is related to the extn, can you tell me where to look at in the system which extn I am working on ?
Thanks in advance
Regards

NO.. MSS only provides the (WebDynpro) frontend to the ECM functionality but ECM as such is very much part of ECC.. You have to turn it on, in the IMG.. there is a switch Activate ECM under Global Settings..

Solution Manager vs Enterprise Solution Manager
Dear All,
We already have solution manager installed in our SAP System landscape.
But a visiting consultant give a new word to managers about enterprise solution manager with following benefits.
1-If we have enterprise solution manager then SAP AG can access our system and inform us about system health.
2-If we have enterprise solution manager then SAP AG will react on our ticket not on what we send but on the the actual actual condition of system.
3-We can only utilize our support services in a right way if we have enterprise solution manager.
1- Now first where I can check that the installed solution manager is standard or enterprise?
2- The benefit which is listed above is really available in enterprise solution manager?
3- Any tutorial or link defining how to install and configure enterprise solution manager.
Any response will be highly appreciated

Compensation management & Enterprise Compensation Management
Hi Experts,
My client is planning to go for Compensation Management module.
Now with Talent Management EHP-6/7 Compensation is falling under Talent Management which is a built in functionality.
Client does not have any Compensation Management in Play.
They have only 2 components of:
Incentive given to emplopyee per year,Bonus per year & salary survey, in this situation which would be a better solution to follwo.
My question here is whether we should go for conventional Compensation managent or Enterprise Compensation Management.
Plz guide.Yury thanks for the info,
Can i use the infotypes
LTI grant: LTI Grant Infotype (0761)
Eligibility Override Infotype (0760)
I think these used be in Comp.Mgmt
& client doesnt have any budgeting,how to
by pass that.
plz guide. -
Enterprise Compensation Management - Mass date change of IT 0759
We run ECC 5.0 SP45 (for HR)
We currently use the Enterprise Compensation Management (ECM) process for our Merit Increases and Bonus assignments.
This year, at the end of the process (meaning that everyone is in Approved status on IT 0759), Management decided to change the effective date of the Merit Increases.
Does anyone have a suggestion (other than create a bdc session) that would allow me to mass change the effective date of this particular comp. review item on IT 0759, without impacting the bonus review item?Hi Laural,
Instead of BDC, you can use the ECM function modules.
Get the infotype data through HR_ECM_READ_INFOTYPE
and change the data through HR_ECM_MODIFY_INFOTYPE.
And the BEGDA and ENDDA in 759 would be the same as of the payment date. So you would be changing both dates here to the new payment date.
I cannot think of any other alternative solution.
Hope this helps.
Cheers,

With Arun Kumar
Welcome to the Cisco Support Community Ask the Expert conversation. This is an opportunity to learn and ask questions about Single Sign-On (SSO) with Cisco WebEx Meetings Server (Cisco WMS), Internet Reverse Proxy (IRP), and Enterprise License Manager (ELM) solutions.
SSO standards such as Security Assertion Markup Language (SAML) 2.0 provide secure mechanisms for passing credentials and related information between different websites that have their own authorization and authentication systems. SSO enables simplified user authentication and management.
IRP provides public access, enabling users to host or attend meetings from the Internet and mobile devices. Although IRP is optional, Cisco encourages its use because it provides a better user experience for your mobile workforce.
Example question topics include:
SSO profiles and SAML 2.0 Identity providers (IdPs) supported in Cisco WMS
Basic configuration of IdPs
Interaction between IdPs and Cisco WMS
Difference between the cloud client implementation and Cisco WMS
Meeting access behavior in a split-horizon network topology with SSO
How to enable public access to Cisco WMS
Cisco WMS ELM operations
Cisco WMS ELM compared to other unified communications ELM or standalone ELM and compatibility/inoperability between them

Enterprise License Manager Sync Problem
Hi.
I have CUCM 9.1 & Enterprise License Manager. I have installed licenses on Enterprise License Manager and in inventory added CUCM.
Everyting worked fine for 20 days, but from yesterday CUCM is showing below error:-
"The system has not synchronized successfully with Enterprise License Manager for 7 days. If successful synchronization does not occur within the next 53 days, you will no longer be able to provision users and devices."
In Enterprise license manager CUCM status is "Registration Conflict". It also show :-"This product instance is already being managed by another Enterprise License Manager. Product Instances can only be managed by a single Enterprise License Manager. To manage the product instance with this Enterprise License Manager, delete it from this and the other Enterprise License Manager, and then add it to this one."
Also below message is displayed in Enterprise License Manager:-
"Enterprise License Manager is operating in demo mode. Install licenses to cover the licensing requirements of your product instances in order to avoid losing functionality in those products."
Please help to solve this problem.
Regards,
AndyHi Neo,
I have never tried but recommended would be to go for maintenance window.
Further, the message posted says The system has not synchronized successfully with Enterprise License Manager for 7 days. If successful synchronization does not occur within the next 53 days, you will no longer be able to provision users and devices.
This means it can be done but why to take a chance.

CALL FOR PARTICIPATION
OASIS Enterprise Key Management Infrastructure (EKMI) TC
Name
OASIS Enterprise Key Management Infrastructure (EKMI) TC
Statement of Purpose
Public Key Infrastructure (PKI) technology has been around for more than a
decade, and many companies have adopted it to solve specific problems in the
area of public-key cryptography. Public-key cryptography has been embedded in
some of the most popular tools -- web clients and servers, VPN clients and
servers, mail user agents, office productivity tools and many industry-specific
applications -- and underlies many mission-critical environments today.
Additionally, there are many commercial and open-source implementations of PKI
software products available in the market today. However, many companies across
the world have recognized that PKI by itself, is not a solution.
There is also the perception that most standards in PKI have already been
established by ISO and the PKIX (IETF), and most companies are in
operations-mode with their PKIs -- just using it, and adopting it to other
business uses within their organizations. Consequently, there is not much left
to architect and design in the PKI community.
Simultaneously, there is a new interest on the part of many companies in the
management of symmetric keys used for encrypting sensitive data in their
computing infrastructure. While symmetric keys have been traditionally managed
by applications doing their own encryption and decryption, there is no
architecture or protocol that provides for symmetric key management services
across applications, operating systems, databases, etc. While there are many
industry standards around protocols for the life-cycle management of asymmetric
(or public/private) keys -- PKCS10, PKCS7, CRMF, CMS, etc. -- however, there is
no standard that describes how applications may request similar life-cycle
services for symmetric keys, from a server and how public-key cryptography may
be used to provide such services.
Key management needs to be addressed by enterprises in its entirety -- for both
symmetric and asymmetric keys. While each type of technology will require
specific protocols, controls and management disciplines, there is sufficient
common ground in the discipline justifying the approach to look at
key-management as a whole, rather than in parts. Therefore, this TC will
address the following:
Scope
A) The TC will create use-case(s) that describe how and where
the protocols it intends to create, will be used;
B) The TC will define symmetric key management protocols,
including those for:
1. Requesting a new or existing symmetric key from a server;
2. Requesting policy information from a server related to caching of keys on the
client;
3. Sending a symmetric key to a requestor, based on a request;
4. Sending policy information to a requestor, based on a request;
5. Other protocol pairs as deemed necessary.
C) To ensure cross-implementation interoperability, the TC will create a test
suite (as described under 'Deliverables' below) that will allow different
implementations of this protocol to be certified against the OASIS standard
(when ratified);
D) The TC will provide guidance on how a symmetric key-management infrastructure
may be secured using asymmetric keys, using secure and generally accepted
practices;
E) Where appropriate, and in conjunction with other standards organizations that
focus on disciplines outside the purview of OASIS, the TC will provide input on
how such enterprise key-management infrastructures may be managed, operated and
audited;
F) The TC may conduct other activities that educate users about, and promote,
securing sensitive data with appropriate cryptography, and the use of proper
key-management techniques and disciplines to ensure appropriate protection of
the infrastructure.
List of Deliverables
1. XSchema Definitions (XSD) of the request and response protocols (by August
2007) 2. A Test Suite of conformance clauses and sample transmitted keys and
content that allows for clients and servers to be tested for conformance to the
defined protocol (by December 2007)
3. Documentation that explains the communication protocol (by August 2007)
4. Documentation that provides guidelines for how an EKMI may be built,
operated, secured and audited (by December 2007)
5. Resources that promote enterprise-level key-management: white papers,
seminars, samples, and information for developer and public use. (beginning
August 2007, continuing at least through 2008)
Anticipated Audiences:
Any company or organization that has a need for managing cryptographic keys
across applications, databases, operating systems and devices, yet desires
centralized policy-driven management of all cryptographic keys in the
enterprise. Retail, health-care, government, education, finance - every industry
has a need to protect the confidentiality of sensitive data. The TC's
deliverables will provide an industry standard for protecting sensitive
information across these, and other, industries.
Security services vendors and integrators should be able to fulfill their use
cases with the TC's key management methodologies.
Members of the OASIS PKI TC should be very interested in this new TC, since the
goals of this TC potentially may fulfill some of the goals in the charter of the
PKI TC.

Additional Non-normative information regarding the start-up of the TC:
a. Identification of similar or applicable work:
The proposers are unaware of any similar work being carried on in this exact
area. However, this TC intends to leverage the products of, and seek liaison
with, a number of other existing projects that may interoperate with or provide
functionality to the EKMI TC's planned outputs, including:
OASIS Web Services Security TC
OASIS Web Services Trust TC
W3C XMLSignature and XMLEncryption protocols and working group
OASIS Digital Signature Services TC
OASIS Public Key Infrastructure TC
OASIS XACML TC (and other methods for providing granular access-control
permissions that may be consumed or enforced by symmetic key management)
b. Anticipated contributions:
StrongAuth, Inc. anticipates providing a draft proposal for the EKMI protocol,
at the inception of the TC. The current draft can be viewed at:
http://www.strongkey.org/resources/documentation/misc/skcl-sks-protocol.html
and a working implementation of this protocol is available at:
http://sourceforge.net/projects/strongkey for interested parties.
c. Proposed working title and acronym for specification:
Symmetric Key Services Markup Language (SKSML), subject to TC's approval or
change.
d. Date, time, and location of the first meeting:
First meeting will be by teleconference at:
Date: January 16, 2007
Time: 10 AM PST, 1PM EST
Call in details: to be posted to TC list
StrongAuth has agreed to host this meeting.
e. Projected meeting schedule:
Subject to TC's approval, we anticipate monthly telephone meetings for the first
year. First version of the protocol to be voted on by Summer 2007. StrongAuth is
willing to assist by arranging for the teleconferences; we anticipate using
readily available free teleconference services.

Dear Friends,
Enterprise content Management is part of portal. But is it part of SAP DMS module.
I have confusion that a SAP DMS consultant should know SAP Enterprise content management.
As I know A SAP DMS consultant should have knowledge of Web DMS, Easy DMS. So in same way is it necessary to have knowledge of SAP ECM.
With Warm RegardHi Mangesh,
Enterprise content management is a systematic approach via a set of tools/methods that enable an enterprise/organization to capture,organize, store and deliver information crucial to its operations.This can be via solutions like SAP DMS,SAP Arhcivelink,SAP Enterprise portal,Open Text,Records Management Sytems,Documentum,Livelink et-al.
Document Management has some overlap with the concepts of other types of Content Management and is often viewed as a component of Enterprise Content Management Systems.
Coming back to your question, SAP EP/DMS are themselves components of Enterprise content management system.
P.S. ECM in SAP parlance stands for Engineering Change Mangement.

http://www.btsummit.comECM is one of the fastest growing areas in the industry - Sun has not embraced this but Oracle, IBM, EMC and Microsoft are seeing huge growth and expect it to continue for years to come. Bottom line unstructured data is difficult to manage = opportunity.
ECM specialists are very hard to come by these days, I know of many organizations who just cannot recruit high quality staff (both vendors and end users).
Frankly if you had skills in any of the above today you would have your pick of job's and a good rate to go with it.
