Integration of ABAP workflow with portal

Hello Experts,
Need urgent help on UWL configuration.
We have integrated our ABAP workflow with portal through UWL.
We have a Ad Hoc link in the ABAP workflow which takes us to some transaction. For some reason we are not able to view that link when we see this workflow through portal.
1. Is is possible to show any Ad hoc links from ABAP workflow into portals?
2. If yes, what is the process for the same? We did not get any relevant documents.
Any inputs/sugessions are most welcome.

Hi Ashutosh,
Can you please send me the documents how did you resolve this issue?

Workflow engine with portal

Hi,
We are planning to implement Oracle workflow for Portal forms. I uderstand that workflow engine is inbuilt for all Oracle Apps (Financials, HRMS etc).
How do I check if Oracle workflow is installed for Oracle 10g AS.
If any one has implemented Oracle portal with workflow, please refer me some links/documentation that will help me understand how to configure oracle workflow to work with custom forms built on Oracle portal.
Thanks,

BOBJ integration into portal is in NO WAY similar to ESS business package deployment. For that matter, it is not a business package at all.
BOBJ itself is a web based application that interfaces with BW to retrieve different types of reports. So for the integration with SAP Portal you would not need to deploy any content (Except a few par files) on the portal.
Basically, for BOBJ integration you would have two options:
1. Integration using the iview template or URL iviews
2. KM Based integration
This topic has been discussed many a times and there is lot of information out there on SDN.
You can start with the following link:

SAP Interactive Forms by Adobe with SAP CRM

Hello community,
I'm sure most of you would have seen the exciting videos showcasing the use of SAP Interactive Forms by Adobe with SAP CRM 2007 & SAP CRM 7.0. In case you haven't, you can find a couple of them [here|https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/go/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/d05bc7e9-0183-2a10-17ab-cf77195fcdec] and [here|https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/go/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/00fddbc0-e3c9-2b10-05b4-dd1aced4ad12].
What I would like to ask of the community here is to share some of the experiences and feedback regarding the use of SAP Interactive Forms by Adobe with different business processes in SAP CRM, be it order managemnt, activity management or business partner management. Any implementation examples would be great!
Thanks in advance!

Hi again
I solved the problem by installing the Adobe Designer 7.1.
Now my next problem is that I have no ADS (Adobe Document service).
That makes sense to my Adobe forms newbi brain. My guess is that the ADS must run on the JAVA stack and my testdrive is a ABAP stack only.
My next shot will be to install an JAVA testdrive on top of my ABAP testdrive and see what happens.

Using WLI with Portal

Hi!
Is anyone using BEA portal for user authentication and personalization along with
Integration for workflow??? Looking at the two sets of examples and full functionality
of wli it appears that the two should be easily tied together... Any thoughts
or advice would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks...Peggy

Hi Stanley,
THANKS very much for the info. Since our WLP instance
is already established I am leaning towards your
architecture. Hopefully I will get the documentation
done early next week and can start implementation.
The two domains will certainly simplify the
port over. Please ping on me in a few weeks
to discuss other aspects of this process....
THANKS again,
Peggy

Hi Peggy,
I'm doing the same sort of thing, with WLP and WLI sitting in separate
domains. This works fine, and separates the application load between
two
server machines (the WLP domain/server handles all the user/portal logic,
the WLI domain/server handles all the talking to external systemes and
business logic). However, I would also be very interested to hear views
on
running them within the same domain.

Sasi,
After reading the docs it looks like the two may live together
in the same domain...okay...not sure.
I will be 'porting' the WLI work I am doing into a current
domain where they have a portal installed. I think a single
domain is what I need.
I do not know if having two domains is better or not...do
you know?
Any insight is appreciated.
Are you doing anything similar?
THANKS! Peggy

Flow management with portals

Hi all,
I work with flow control in the WLPS and have some problem.
I am able to invoke unportalized JSP from a pipelet but cann't manage to
return back to the portal home page.
To invoke an unportalized JSP I use the following sequense in the
webflow.properties:
agentsMgr.jsp.link(agentNew)=portals/myPortal/agentNew.jsp
where agentsMgr.jsp is a portlet and agentNew.jsp is a particular JSP.
Now I would like to return back to the portal home page.
I tried to use the following code:
in JSP:
WebflowJSPHelper.createWebflowURL(pageContext,"agentsNew.jsp","link(portalHome)",true)
in webflow.properties: *
.jsp.link(portalHome)=portals/myPortal/portal.jsp
and got an exception.
I changed approach and used
in JSP:
WebflowJSPHelper.createWebflowURL(pageContext,"agentsNew.jsp","link(portalHome)","&portalized=true&dest="+getHomePage(request),
true)
in webflow.properties: nothing
and the result was the same.
I noticed that getHomePage(request) always retrives null although I have
used <%@ page extends="com.beasys.commerce.portal.admin.PortalJspBase"%>
Any pointers about using flow management with portals would be greatly
appreciated.

Are you trying to build an interaction system within OBIEE? If that is the case, then OBI might not be an ideal tool as it is a Business Intelligence reporting tool.

I just spoke to the Oracle App server admins, the two servers in question are clustered.
So my question changes slightly to:
What is the best way to install and configure a webgate for clustered Oracle App servers with mulitple virtual hosts, that are residing behind a load balancer (Traffic Manager)?

Oracle Workflow 2.6 with Oracle 8.1.7 for linux

Is Oracle Workflow Server 2.6 available for Linux as a
standalone product against an Oracle 8.1.7 database?
Oracle Workflow does not seem to be included in the Integration
Server option with the 8.1.7 installation.
I've only found the Oracle Workflow Server included with the 9i
database. Will this work with 8.1.7 as well or does it require
9i db?
Thanks in advance for your help,

Open and close RFC connection with portals...

Hi Experts,
I created a RFC having a query which is taking a long time to execute. So i want to close RFC connection with portals which is via java connector(JCO) before that query and open the connction again after that query.
Please advice is it possible to achieve this. If yes, then how.
Regards,
Guddan

Hi Guddan,
I created a RFC having a query which is taking a long time to execute. So i want to close RFC connection with portals which is via java connector(JCO) before that query and open the connction again after that query.
I guess i will need to understand your requirement a little more in detail, as i understand you have an RFC which has a query within to fetch some data and is taking a long time to do so. In the meantime you don't want to keep the connection open?
My question would be, Is the role of this RFC to only execute the query and fetch the data or does it do something else?
If it does other things and these are independent of the query execution, then you can span a parallel call within the RFC to execute the query and in the meantime the RFC does the other things (or vice versa) hence reducing the overall time taken.
If the sole purpose of this RFC is to execute the query, then you will not be able(i mean to say there is no simple and direct way of doing this) to close the connection after the Query is started and re-establish the connection after its execution, for a simple reason that - how will you know if the query has completed it's execution, so that you can establish the connection back.
Alternate solutions, make this a two way asynchronous call, 1) You invoke the RFC asynchronously and close the connection, the RFC in turn will execute the query and transfer the data to JCO via another RFC call.
If this needs to be a synchronous call, then you will need to optimize the query to its best.

Chen

What's the right way to start up with Portal's dev?

Hi to all Portals experts,
I am really struggling to start up learning Portals and more specific their development.Here is the problem - I am a bit new in the NetWeaver but not new in J2EE environment. I went trough all WebDynpro tutorials and really the documentation was written nice.Good hands-on approach with lots of examples and that is what I found with WebDynpro - everything well explained step by step.
But when I started the Portals Tutorials I was a bit disappointed.
1.First of all, there is no explanation which tools one needs to start up with Portal Dev?
I only have SAP Netweaver Development Studio SP15 installed on my PC and I dont have any access to R/3, CRM or other system. Is this enough to at least start to learn Portal Development or not?
2. I realize well that at some point I will need real system to play with but , until than what useful practice I can do on my own and how?
- Even within the WebDynpro tutorial , the very first Part : Define a system - (http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/cb/f4bc3d42f46c33e10000000a11405a/frameset.htm) -In the portal, navigate to System Administration - System Configuration - System Landscape
Which Portal ? I dont have System Administration on my NWDS SP15?Is is something I should install?unclear?
3. My understanding is that NWDS SP15 contains EP , within its J2EE local engine , but is this EP.6.0, is this enough to develop complete Portal Application A-Z or not - unclear ?
4. PDK. Somewhere I read that Portal Application can be developed with either WebDynpro or with PDK. Ive read about PDK but It is not clear if it is Dev Kit as its name says , should it be downloaded , installed or imported into NWDS, again? And bottom line do I need PDK as a Portal Developer, and at which point?
I only need the starting point for Portal Develop. or some guide that should set milestones 1st ,2nd .. I would prefer the hands-on approach. If some of you has already taken this path and can help me with your directions, links, at least how to get started, I will highly appreciate it! Thanks in advance!Regards, Bob

Hi Bob,
The below reply is as per my experience with Development so far:
1> It is not necessary to have access to R/3 or any other SAP/non SAP application unless you are writing an application in connection to them.
Example: An application which is reading data from R/3 and displaying the same in a table. Yes, in this scenario you would require access to R/3.
2> System Administration is a role just like Home, User Administration, etc in Portal itself.
It contains all the configuration related to System Landscape, Knowledge Menegement, etc
If in case you have not been given this role, you may ask your System Administrator to create the required system (PCD Object). You may then use this system from your Profile (Personalize Portal) link directly.
3> NWDS resides over Portal so you may create your own standalone application or application thats talking to the underlying Portal.
WebDynpro is used to create UI & likewise you may build Web applications or EJB applications.
4> PDK stands for Portal Development Kit. YUou may ask your administrator to download and assign the same to you. This would appear as a "Java Developer" named role in your portal. It contains all APIs required for Java development.
If you do nto have this, you may still use the Javadocs provided on SDN itself.
Depending what custom developmetn you do, depending upon the type the .par (portal archieve), .ear (Enterprise archieve), .war (web archieve) needs to be deployed in portal, so that users may access/view the custom created data.
Hope this helps
All the best!

Vinit

Hi Vinit,
if you want some Windows File Server integrated into Portal, please do not use a WebDAV Repository, but use the File System Repository instead. Therefore you need to configure the according Repository Manager. Please refer to this documentation:
<a href="http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw70/helpdata/en/ed/b334ea02a2704388d1d2fc3e4298ad/frameset.htm">Integrating Documents from a Windows System into KM</a>

How to deal with Portal, Workshop, and non-BEA software?

Hi,
I'm really new to working with portal, and have looking into integrating a single sign-on software (RSA ClearTrust) into existing portal code.
The ClearTrust installation involves installation of a bunch of software that integrates with the portal software, but I found that if the portal code was developed with Workshop, that if Workshop is run again after the ClearTrust integration has been done, that Workshop appears to overwrite some of the XML configuration files (e.g., web.xml).
The result of this is that the WebLogic server won't start.
So, I was wondering if anyone here has had to deal with this kind of situation, not necessarily with ClearTrust specifically, but maybe with other products?
I'm not looking forward to re-doing the integration everytime someone makes some portal code changes :(...
Thanks in advance,
Jim

There are really two types of Graphic Styles - Object level styles and Group level styles. There is no way to tell which style is which. So if you have an Object level Style and try to apply it to a group of objects or often a compound shape, you get each individual object having the style. If you have a Group level style and try to apply it to only an object, you often get nothing applied.
It perhaps sounds like you have an Object level style and are trying to apply it to a group.
There's no way to convert an Object level style to a Group level style or vice versa. The best (and pretty much only) way I've found to get around this is to apply the style to teh correct level then make a note of all the style settings, select the other level and recreate the style for that level.
Whether or not a style applies correctly has a great deal to do with specific aspects of the style in addition to what level the style was generated from. This is a frustrating aspect of Graphic Styles.

What is the Design to Deployment Workflow using DW with WordPress?

I am a Designer and Developer/programmer. This is a complete workflow question: What is the Design to Deployment Workflow using DW with WordPress? For example, is it:
PS/IL > DW > WP? (Photoshop or Illustrator, Dreamweaver, WordPress?)
Or is Edge Reflow inserted between PS and DW?
PS > ER > DW > WP?
Are these workflows iterative and, whats the word, recursive - we are able to go back and forth?
My understanding is that the Edge tools are not up to the coding standards of DW, and ER > DW (Edge Reflow to Dreamweaver) is not seamless or even practical.
Where does the Stack come in? MAMP (or LAMP/WAMP) of course, jQuery/jQuery UI, WordPress and other items; how integrated are these things?
I used to be a Flex developer and quite comfortable with the Design to Dynamic Deployment workflow of Illustrator or Photoshop to Flash Catalyst to Flash Builder; moreover, I thought the Eclipse IDE was excellent with its database introspection capabiliities, debugging etc. Adobe really pushed this workflow, then instead of innovating and standing behind its own product with 98% market penetration, Adobe disembowelled Flash right before everyones eyes.
What about Prototyping, which is certainly part of the process? Fireworks is on the kibosh. Illustrator, while excelling at some aspects falls short of making a functional prototype (unless you're tying in Acrobat to link the pages), and while Photoshop is Edge Reflows darling, Edge seems redundant with DW and spits out twacky code.
(Muse of course is unusable for professional developers, but it makes you wonder why some of those UI elements where not employed in DW whose interface seems antiquated by comparison).
It seems Adobe is bloody all over the place, more like a rabbing drunk with a microphone rather than the dependable go-to software company for creatives the world over.
In my opinion, workflow from beginning to end is important. Having a million different options to try to accomodate everyone is not. Some guidance in this department is greatly appreciated!
Best,
Dylan

I have not used Edge Reflow myself. Nor do I espically like WordPress. But my typical workflow is:
PS for Design Concept and web images.
DW for CSS, HTML & JavaScript.
3rd party editors like Zend Studio & Navicat for PHP & MySql development.

Issues with portal integration of Web dynpro for ABAP application

Hi,
I have the following issues when i integrate a Web Dynpro for ABAP application with portal.
1. the iview does not contain some images, such as table scroll button images, maximize and close buttons of popups etc.
2. the iview loads properly, but there is an error in the status bar that says "Access denied"
3. is it possible to do absolute navigation from
   role1->folder1->iview1 to role1->folder2->iview2?
   when i fire this navigation from the webdynpro
   application, the navigation does not happen in the
   portal.

I think you are overestimating the power of the SCM_STRING_TO_XSTRING function module. By supplying a URL as the value of the input text, it isn't going to magically go read the content from the remote location and convert that to a binary string. It is going to take whatever value you supply in th importing TEXT parameter convert that to binary. In other words it is literally converting the string http://xxx/test.xls to binary. You will need some other mechanism to read the content from the remote location into ABAP memory before you can process it. You will need to use the CL_HTTP_CLIENT class or call some sort of web service to retrive the content.
