Target : portal server v 6.0

Hi Daniel,
You can very well integrate all your web application with Portal server. Portal Server 6.0 has web container same as Sun ONE web server 6.0 Sp2, which runs on Jdk-1.3.
If your web applications are just Servlets/Jsps then you can very well port them on Portal server's webserver which supports war module deployment. (infect for Web server the Portal server and Identity server is like a war module.)
There can be two possibilities in this case, either you put the whole of your application on portal server and make the link available into the desktop via 'Application Provider Channels' or you can create a client to your web application into portal server.
If your web application is on Sun ONE Application server 7.0 and needs authentication, you can also have SSO. If you just want to show the link of your web application into desktop then you can either use URL Scrapper to show the first page of your web application or use Bookmark channel to provide just the url.
The easiest way to make a client of your web application is to use JSP Channel using JSPProvider and put your logic into the samplecontents.jsp file or you can create your own custom Provider extending JSPProvider.
There can be a lot of different configurations, depending on the web application you want to integrate and your needs.

BI Integration in Portal (Where to configure Port, problems with km-integr)

Hello,
I am new to BI and started to integrate BI into the portal or rather tried it.
When I open my Bex-Excel-Workbook and try to create a document (right mouse -> jump -> documents) an error occurs that the service is not reachable. This is because of an wrong port.
Could someone tell me where I can change the port that he is using when the portal is called out of excel?
Changing the port in the browser I am facing some other problems like (sorry I don't know how to translate it exactly):
Properties for the assignment couldn't be provided
Could not determinate repository for documents with this property typ
Error during open new document-dialog
Has someone an idea how to investigate this problem? could it be because of the wrong port and where to configure the port?
Thanks a lot,

Hi Edward,
Can you clarify on your statement "You can run 3.x queries normally". I am currently declaring the bex web application string in the BW iview created in this format "infocube=0D_FI_C01&query=0D_FI_C01_Q001" and i am not defining the report template anywhere in the iview properties but still the standard template is displayed.
Pls let me know how to run 3.x queries normally.
Also i am trying to integrate only reports which are developed for BW 3.x format in BI system but still the data is not displayed.
Pls let me know incase the SP level of both EP and BI portal are to be considered for this.
EP 7 portal is on SP9 where as BI 7 is on sp12.
Also i noticed the EP portal doesn't have BI Java Addon. will this matter for displaying reports in BW 3.x format.
As you suggested workaround i tried to create a url iviews directly taking the links from the reports displayed in BI portal , i was able to preview the report but when i added those iview reports to role, the reports are constantly loading as it is trying to contact BI system. There are being loaded constantly with nothing displayed on screen.

Solved myself.
The answer lies in this link:
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw70/helpdata/en/76/489d39d342de00e10000000a11402f/frameset.htm
See the following two properties under Paging:
Columns Scrolled for Each Step (BLOCK_COLUMNS_STEP_SIZE)
Rows Scrolled for Each Step (BLOCK_ROWS_STEP_SIZE)
The values of these two properties have to be changed in the Web Template you are using for your BI Reports.

Project systems integration with portal (EP)

Dear all,
I have to integrate the projects systems module with Portal.(EP)
In portal transactional I views can be used to create projects which can be store in the R/3.
Now the issue is to create projects with out using Transactional I views. This should be a simple entry through portal, where in the user keys in the key fields and there by the project is created and scheduled.
For this I have tried with using business packages given by SAP to integrate with portal.
Now the issue is I can display the projects that are created in R/3 through portal and display the necessary fileds required for viewing (I views). Now the main problem is to create the project using these business packages so that the same get updated in the R/3.
But business packages do not have the option of creating the project. I am using the business packages for projects 50.3.1
Has any body come across this type of issue which has to be integrated with portal and subsequent creation of projects through portal
If any body has done this in any other way please kindly share on this.
Experts please throw some pointers on this.
Regards.
Vara Prasad

Regd : Integration Between Portal Layer And Process Layer

Hi Experts,
I have a query regarding the integration between Portal layer and the process layer in CE. How does the interaction happens or what is the process behind the integration of these two layers. I was going through some help documents at help.sap.com.
But from there I could not get much of information. So need your inputs on the same.
Thanks
Pradipta Kumar Mishra

Hi Pradipta,
If you are referring to Guided Procedures as the "Process Layer", then you have one of the three options that I can think of:
1) Deliver the GP processes via UWL in CE Portal
2) Deliver the GP processes via UWL in EP (if your organization has one)
3) Delvier the GP processes via GP Runtime in CE Portal
Of the three mentioned above, option 2 is preferred since your business users get to access their tasks via a single interface. But you need a EP. If that's not the case, I would suggest Option 1. For integrating GP and UWL, please refer to following link.

How to use PPM 5 (standalone or integrated with portal)

Hi,
I would like to know which advantages and disadvantages are presented by using PPM 5.0 standalone or integrated with portal? all functionality are the same in both cases? which is the best option?
Thanks a lot,
CAMILO URIBE

Hi,
from a functionality point of view, standalone and portal usage of SAP Portfolio and Project Management 5.0 are the same (except functionality which is in general only available within a portal, e.g. KM documents, collaboration rooms, etc.).
From a TCO perspective, for the standalone usage you'll only need the ABAP stack (except for ADS), i.e. if you don't anyway already have a portal in use in your company, this could lead to a lower TCO.
Kind regards,
Florian

Discoverer PLUS integration in Portal

Hi,
I know that Discoverer viewer can be integrated within Portal fairly easily. But, i wanted to know how to integrate Discoverer Plus (witch offers more options) within Portal. Did anyone attempt that successfully? And how?
Best regards

we have tried integrating 1 sample application in portal by creating a BSP iview and it took some features of portal theme.\
I hope if we could change the whole portal theme through theme editor, all the CRM applications will take portal theme.
we will just integrate the first page of webclient with the portal through BSP iview. is this approach correct or I am missing something.

Integrating Oracle Portal & Microsoft Active Directory

Dear friends
I Integrated Oracle Portal & Microsoft Active Directory without any error or problems but it just integrate the users under Users Container in active directory, I have some OU,Groups and policies and I categorized my users under them, so when I run "sh oidspadi.sh" and set "cn=...." with other values except "Users" it can not add all of the users under specific groups or policies.
Please let me know how can I add all of my users in active directory to OID?
Thanks
Babak Saraie

I'm not familiar with iPlanet, but if it can allow basic
authentication and connect to AD, it should be possible to do what
you want.
Personally, I would rather that the browser did not
automatically log me in. For example, if someone was having
problems with their "view" on the intranet web site, if they
visited your office, you would have to log off, let them log on
(and wait while their profile was created) just to let them open a
browser.
Is it really asking too much for them to enter their
username/password into a browser prompt once each day? Heck, most
browsers will remember usernames and passwords so you don't have to
type it. You just click OK.
That's just my perspective.

BW report integration in Portal/PC-UI based on a BP at runtime

Hello,
we have created a BW report "Customer Overview" and want this report to be called from the Account BSP iView (within the context): The selected Business Partner should be automatically transferred to the report, the BW report should receive the BP ID at runtime.
There is the similar standard overview called "Fact Sheet", but we decided to not use it, but instead our own report. We are on CRM 4.0, Netweaver Portal (EP6.0), BW 3.5 and Business Package for mySAP CRM (not the Business Productivity Pack).
We have tried to use the same method "factsheet" for linking to our BW web template using the button "Fact Sheet" in the Account BSP iView. We created therefor a new iView (based on com.sap.pct.crm.bwreport.BWContainer), filled the required parameter and placed it on our own fact sheet page. The resulting test URL of the new iView looks fine:
http://[host]:[port]/sap/bw/BEx?cmd=ldoc&sap-language=EN
&TEMPLATE_ID=TPCRM1001&FILTER_IOBJNM_1=0BPARTNER
The object link from the 'Fact Sheet' button to our fact sheet page works, however the BP id is not passed or the BW template does not process it.
How is the business partner ID transferred at runtime from Account BSP?
What have to be done on the BW report in order to receive / require the parameter FILTER_IOBJNM_1 (i.e. BP ID) and display the overview for this particular customer?
Further questions:
Is this right way to achieve the display of BW data of a particular business partner?
Is there another way to do this?
Thanks for any information on how to integrate BW report that requires a BP ID in the portal...
Regards,
Erik

Hi Gregor,
thanks for your reference to your very good blog. I have read it and understood that I could write a model access class which build the URL including the correct account ID (i.e. object key) as filter value and then use this class to customize PCUI (i.e. tab or button).
But from the Business Package documentation (p.132) I thought that I could use a "standard" method to achieve BW report integration which requires a business partner ID at runtime. I.e. using the BW Report Wrapper iView (com.sap.pct.crm.bwreport.BWContainer) without writing code. Is my understanding correct?
So I tried to use the standard event ACC_FACT_SHEET and toolbar button FACTSHEET to navigate (object navigation) to my custom created page which included this BW Report Wrapper iView (custom).
My problem is to understand how the event is transferring the object key (by clicking the button 'Fact Sheet') so the BW Wrapper iView can generate the correct URL including the correct parameter 'filter_value'.
When I look into the Event definition of ACC_FACT_SHEET, I see that for 'Field->CRM Object ID' the value OBJECT_KEY is defined. However, the BW wrapper iView is not including the parameter 'filter_value'.
Can anyone tell me if my understanding of the BW Report Wrapper iView is correct, and how it is possible to transfer the object_key of the selected account to it?
Thanks and kind regards,
Erik
