Introduction: Building An Enterprise Portal For Information Access

Hi all,
I've installed oracle8.0.5 on Linux Mandrake7.0 successfully but I can't run anything including lsnrctl, svrmgrl, or even sqlplus, it always give me "segmentation fault".
Does it means that oracle805 and Mandrake binary is not compatible?
Any one has any idea about this?
Thanks you very much.

Hi Chinnu
I dont have idea about mm procurement but one doubt.
how do you see mm procurement details in sap system? through transaction code?
If you are able to see procurement details through tranasaction code in sap mm , you can get procurement detilas into sap portal by creating sap transaction iview.

Double stack BI and Enterprise portal for SSO

I am in the process of configuring a double stack BI and SAP Enterprise Portal. Both systems are residing on different domains. We want to utilize the standalone SAP Enterprise Portal for our BEx etc. For that I have exchanged certificates between the ABAP and the SAP Enterprise Portal systems and with the help of Support desk tool I have overcome the certificate issues. The RFC connection from ABAP and SAP Enterprise Portal works fine. The Support desk tool is complaining now about the prefix of these two servers. Also when I check the connection testing between these two systems all the messages are correct except for WEBAS connection it complains about the ping service which is already active on ABAP side. For Connectors it complains about SSO which is not detected/complained by the Support desk tool (0.426). I need your advice:
1. Either uninstall the JAVA instance of BI or
2. Make a Federated Portal network by making the BI JAVA as PRODUCER and the SAP standalone as CONSUMER.
The Support package levels are the same as EHP1 SP 7 of both the double stack BI and the standalone Enterprise Portal systems. The source of users are both local to the systems.

Access BI Portal thru Enterprise Portal

Hi,
I have created a web page on my intranet with direct http links to my BI Reports that go through our Enterprise Portal for Single Signon reasons. I would like to create a single link on my intranet that would present the BI Portal directly. The link should go through the Enterprise Portal like the reports links do
Here's an example of my report link.
https://<server>:<port>/irj/servlet/prt/portal/prtroot/com.sap.portal.pagebuilder.IviewModeProxy?iview_id=gp%3A<consumer alias>/pcd%3Aportal_content/content_folder/bi_folder/bi_projects_folder/ZDWNBI/ZDW_IVIEWS/<Report ID>
Is there anyway to create a direct link to my BI Portal going through my Enterprise Portal?
Thanks, Ken Murray

Hi Kenneth,
You can configure SSO between EP ("regular") portal to the BI portal.
1) Export the the EP6 certificate and import it to the BI portal.
2) Add the EP6 to the ACL of the BI portal.
3) Create html iview in EP6 the points the report in the BI portal (no logon screen should appear...)
see: http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/62/c0503e1dac5b46e10000000a114084/frameset.htm
This is very similar to configuring the BI portal to accept ticket from BW application server.

External SAP Portal for Bidders in SRM 7.0

Hi All
In the strategic sourcing Business Scenario, we need to enable the bidders to submit their bids from outside the network firewall.
Some questions in this regard:
1) Should we have a separate portal for the bidders ( from the one used by the employees inside the firewall) for security
purpose?? Earlier I had seen a different URL for SAP enterprise portal for external vendors at a client place.However not sure if it is a single Portal instance or two separate ones.
2) Do we need to install a SAP Web dispatcher in the DMZ as suggested by SAP in the SRM 7.0 security guide for the external portal? Could we simply make the Enterprise portal available outside without setting up the DMZ
3) Since portal is role based, the suppliers won't be able to access anything else, then the process bids screen.What are the other security concerns if the same portal is shared between employees and suppliers?
Regards
Kedar

Hi
Bidding always happens in your SRM System, although External partners execute that activity. It really depends on your security policies whether you want to give them http or https access...

Implementing SAP EP as a Central Portal for mulitple R/3 ECC Backends

Hello
We are trying to implement an Incident / Occurrence Management Solution for a Company with 6 different subsidiaries who run their own SAP ECC Backends which are geographically located in different parts of the country.
The idea is to implement a central SAP Enterprise Portal for these different subsidiaries and we would like to know if anyone has done anything similar before. So the idea is that anyone from these 6 different geographically locations can log an incident on the central portal and the data will be then updated on their own divisional ECC Backend.
Currently the SAP ECC Backends are based on ERP2005.
The Company itself has an Central Active Directory solution in place and single sign on could be used for authentication. All the subsidiaries already use the central Active Directory for authentication.
Could anyone please let us know whether they have done something similar or have any reasons why this cannot be done and some potential issues that could arise for implementing a solution like this.
Some potential issues could be:
System aliasing
Network connectivity, bandwidth, availability issues
Patch alignment etc
Would there be other issues that one would consider?
Thank you kindly.

Hi,
I dont see any issues with such a landscape. You can have content for each of this location based of the systems they access.
As u have said bandwidth, network issues and roles assignment would be concerns as they would be in a single ecc backend connected portal

Jayesh

WAD Vs Enterprise Portal

All,
When is Enterprise Portal used instead of WAD? What is the difference between these 2?
When would one recommen Enterprise portals for a client which is using WAD?
Thanks

Hi,
The Enterprise portal can be used as a single point of entry for the end-user. They only login in once a get access to all the systems that are required to perform their job. So its not only BW reports/WAD templates they can get access to, but also transactions in SAP R/3 and even external non-SAP systems. The idea is to give the users a central access to all system with a similar user interface in which they can perform their daily tasks.
For BW there is a standard portal role you can use for displaying all your Business Intelligence content and your also able to use the Enterprise Portal tools on the BI content, e.g. search in your BW reports using the TREX search engine etc.
This is only a small portion of what the Enterprise Portal is capable of - it has a lot of tools/areas/functions.

Jacob

SAP CRM 7.0 and Enterprise Portal

Dear SAP Gurus ,
I have question about the New CRM WEB UI and integration to SAP Enterprise Portal .
We have been using the SAP Enterprise portal for accesing the SAP CRM functionalities before (eg create Opporutnites and Sales Order ). But with the New SAP version(7.0 and 2007 ) its possible to have its own portal.
Now the question is it possible to integrate the NEW SAP WEB UI into the existing portal ? Eg: If we want to have link in Enterprise portal with the Sales Order create functionalyt direlty without going into the stand alone CRM WEB UI . Would it be possible to directly call the Sales order service WEB UI in enterprise portal . Right now what we see is that the NEW CRM WEB UI is stand alone and for these type of fuctionalites the user need to login to the NEW web ui and then go to the create sales order screen .
Is it possible to directly embed the new UI components in the existing SAP enterprise portal ?
Many Thank for your kind advise !
Best Regards,
Ankur

Ankur,
Once you have correctly integrated to Portal following the SAP Note, you will no longer see the CRM Navigation. They will be Portal Navigation. If you have read and understood the note, it will be clear. On an overview, let me explain the steps involved.
1. You create a CRM role (based on some job role) say "Sales Rep" and have configured the CRM Web UI for all the navigation and applications. Like Account maintenance, Opportunities, Sales order create etc. etc.
2. Following the note and running a CRM transaction, you will now "Export" this CRM role to an external file. This file is very similar to a "business package". All the portal roles, pages, iVeiws etc. get created.
3. You will now "Import" this into your portal. Again follow the notes to know the loaction.
4. In the portal, you will assign this "portal role" to your users.
When these users log on to portal, they will see Portal Navigation (not the CRM navigation). So, the main point lies in defining the CRM role and get it working.
Hope you get the point....

Pro/cons for dev. environments for Enterprise Portal components

Hi
I am looking for some positives and some negatives that should be considered when a client needs to decide on which development environment to use for Portal development. I am aware of three products, Visual Composer, Web Dynpro and NW Developer Studio.
Is there anyone who can briefly try to explain the positives and negatives with each?
Any feedback is greatly appreciated!
Kind Regards,
Thomas Kjelsrud

Hi Thomas,
first, welcome on SDN!
Then about your question:
The standard IDE for any kind of portal components / applications is the NetWeaver Developer Studio (NWDS). By this, you can develop different things (EJBs etc pp), but also portal specific projects (in the end: PAR files, based on AsbtractPortalComponent, DynPages or JSPDynPages) as well es WebDynpro applications. The latter are able to run standalone (ie not driven by EP, but by WAS J2EE 6.40), but there is also a tight integration into the portal environment.
If this is understood, you know that the question "NWDS or WebDynpro" does not make sense, for WebDynpro is developed through NWDS.
A first overview about this issue so far is https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/servlet/prt/portal/prtroot/com.sap.km.cm.docs/documents/a1-8-4/exploring java programming models with sap netweaver developer studio.pdf
In that PDF, also the relationship of the tool NWDS and the programming model of WebDynpro is given (even if the term "relationship" may be misguiding, it's more that these two things are to be seen in a comparison, for they use different techniques, are meant for different aims etc.)
The VC is a totaly visual tool to build "applications" for EP mainly based on access to R/3 as backend system, for example. So it's focus is on building UIs which access backend information. That for sure is important for backend integration into EP, but the term "application" does not really fit.
For VC see https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/servlet/prt/portal/prtroot/com.sap.km.cm.docs/documents/a1-8-4/developing code-free business applications using visual composer - beginner.abst and https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/servlet/prt/portal/prtroot/com.sap.km.cm.docs/documents/a1-8-4/visual composer - a model-driven development tool for enterprise portal iviews.pdf as an introduction.
Hope it helps
Detlev
PS: Please consider rewarding points for helpful answers. Thanks in advance!

Enterprise Portal Business Package for Dealer Poral

Hello Gurus,
I am not much into Auto, but what I would like to understand here - is there any Business Package ( Portal Content ) released from SAP which I can deploy and access the VMS and WMS functions over Enterprise Portal.
If not, are there sets of services available in the backend IS-Auto, which needs to be activated and access over Portal as IAC templates or Transaction iViews.
This is relatively urgent query and appropriate answer will surely be reqarded.

Rahul
