ITS iviews and services objects

Dear all,
I have a problem with an ITS iview : transaction ME23N
We have implemented the archive link to attach some numerical document on SAP object.
When I go directly in ME23N in SAPgui, I can click on Services objects button, then Store business document, then I choose a document type. A frontend windows is opened to allow us to select a local file on my computer and archive it.
When I jump in ME23N through the iview portal, I can click on Services objects then Store business document, but then I can see the document type but I can't select it.
Can someone help me please ? is it possible to use this functionnality and how ?
Thanks
Kind regards
Véronique

Eliz,
iviews are Portal content objects in portal where as Services are maintained in the backend system.
services are used in HomePage Framework .basically service holds a resource that points to a PCD location in portal.By using this we can reorgananise the ESS and MSS in portal
check this blog
Rapid Portal Content Creation using the Homepage Framework
go to SPRO-cross application components - HomePage framework --- Headers,Services etc
Thanks

ITS iView and Session Management in Federated Portal Network

Hi,
We use an ITS iView for an HR application in the Portal. When used in federation the session management doesn not work correctly. We fill in a selection screen in the begin of the application and then run the report. When we click the back button in the Portal and then reload the app, the selection of the previous session is used, in stead of showing a new selection screen.
This only occurs when used in Federated Portal Network. SAP OSS already pointed out that the USR_ABORT command is not given in the consumer Portal. How can we make sure that this command is given, so that the session is correctly closed? How can we set these session management properties and options?
Best regards,
Jan Laros

Solved it. It is done in the federation configuration. In SAP Note 880482 - Central Note: Federated Portal Network (SAP NetWeaver 7.0) the problem is identified, specific for SPS13. The two properties of the producer: External Hostname and External Port were not updated properly and needed to be changed manually.

Windows Azure Pack setup - 500 Internal Server Error - failed to configure databases and services

Hi,
I am trying to setup the Windows Azure pack to use the site to configure the Service bus 1.1 installation. When I try to configure the Windows Azure Pack I get the following error:
Admin Authentication Site
500 Internal Server Error - Failed to configure databases and services: Object reference not set to an instance of an object.
I'm not sure where the logs are to see what is causing this error. I have tried running as admin, running as a different user with no luck.
thanks,

What is difference between Service map iview and Workset Map iview

Hi Experts,
Can anyone tell me the difference between service map iView and Workset Map iView.
When I am creating these iViews, its seams both are same. I canu2019t find difference still, can anyone help me out of this
Thanks in Advance
Janardhan

Hi,
Service Map Iview:The Service Map iView is an ERP-specific variant of the portal Workset Map iView. It serves as a central point of entry and guided access to the services of SAP service modules such as the Manager Self Service (MSS) module, or the Employee Self Service (ESS) module.
Workset Map iview:A Workset Map is the equivalent of a site map, providing users with explicit information on the functionality that is available in a given workset. It is based on an iView, and serves as a central point of entry and guided access to the contents of a workset.
if you want to more info pls go thr the below thread
Workset Map iView
i hope it will help you
Thanks,
Sreeni.

Re: Service Object events and LockMgr

On the option that you have considered, I have implemented the same model
in my previous project (using Java/RMI), but I felt that it is more than
what is normally needed for concurrency protection.
I can suggest another option that is worth considering which is in place in
our app for concurrency.
Almost every table in our db has created By, created On, modifed By,
modified On columns. The parent class of all business objects has
attributes that correspond to these four columns. In addition to these
four, there is a fifth attribute (introduced when concurrency was built)
called originalModifiedOn. Upon retrieval from the db, it is set to
modifiedOn value (from the db), during UPDATE, the value in this column is
added part of the WHERE clause. So when the second user tried to do save
the same object, the underlying db update will get a 'zero rows updated'
which is translated into an application error 'possible concurrency
error'. The user re-retreives the now 'stale' object before applying their
edits.
A lot of these things are and can be built into the framework imposing very
little work that each Object needs to do to have concurrency protection.
I am not sure if there is a mention in the Patterns paper of this model,
but it is very easy to implement and supports what is needed.

Subject: Service Object events and LockMgr
Hi folks,
We're currently looking at strategies for dealing with the simultaneous
updates to the database from multiple clients (concurrency
management). That is when two (or more) clients load the same object to
edit it, then make different changes and save them to the database.
We have a copy of a Forté document (from the "Patterns" course, I
think) which describes three methods of dealing with this:
1) Lock the database table row as soon as a client select it for editing
and hold the lock until it is saved.
2) Immediately before 'saving' check that the database hasn't changed
(either by reading what's there before updating, or by using a huge
'where' clause that contains all unchanged fields)
3) The Forté "LockMgr" pattern, which uses a service object with notifier
proxies to allow locking and updating notification between the clients.
Option 3 is obviously the most robust method, but it requires a fair
amount of coding and could also be a bottleneck for database reads and
writes.
But I have another option for which I was looking for opinions. What if
we had a "Change Event manager" which broadcast an event every time
a change is made to the database. Each business class would have its
own event. If the event had the object's primary key as a parameter, then
clients editing that particular object type could check to see if the object
currently on screen is the one that changed. That way you could disable
the 'save' until they had refreshed their on-screen data.
It's not particularily elegant, but it's reasonably simple to implement. It
also deals with changes sent across our WAN from other database
servers.
But this option is only worthwhile if you can replicate the "Change Event
manager" SO and still register for an event on the client. Can clients
register for SO events and receive an event generated by any of the SO's
replicates? Or when you register for an SO's event do you register for
only one instance of the SO?
Thanks in advance for any answers.

Hi,
Just wonder exactly how this Lock Manager can be implemented. Do you mean that you are
going to cache every object that is instantiated from the database? Or you just cache
the object id, primary key, etc?
Frankly speaking, I won't attempt to due with this kind of currency coding myself as
the database vendor has spent years in coding just to do this.
Regards.

I would recommend you to use the following approach (of course if you
do not have some special requirements :) ):
1. You should have a LockManager that will synchronize all clients in
their attempt to modify/delete objects in your application.
2. Each client, when attempts to modify/delete some object, it must
LOCK it using the services provided with the LockManager.
3. The requested operation can be performed only after successful
locking.
4. If a lock can not be obtained (for example if the object is already
locked by some other client) then the operation is aborted.
The details of this pattern depends on your needs. :)
Hope this helps.

Query as Web Services!!! What are its uses and why do we need it?

What are its uses and why do we need it.. if other tools like Dashboard and crystal reports and Webi can connect to universe and create reports and Analytics...

Hello Rajsan Madhavarajan
Query as a Web Service (QaaWS) is a SAP Business Objects (BOBJ) client-side tool that allows users to create and publish Web Services that can be made available over the Web. Once these web services are created and published, they can be consumed like any other standard Web Service in software applications including Xcelsius and Crystal Reports. But first we have to understand what exactly is a Web Service.
Web Service
A Web Service is a software system that supports interoperable interaction over a network from one computer or machine to another but is more commonly defined as a client and a server communicating data over the Web using the HTTP Protocol. Using Web Services along with Business Objects allows a live connection of data to be used in applications such as Xcelsius and Crystal Reports through a semantic layer called a Universe.
Query as a Web Service (QaaWS)
The two main components in QaaWS are the Client Tool and the Server. The QaaWS Client Tool gives the end user an easy to use wizard that allows them to create Universe queries and publish them as Web Services. Once the QaaWS is published, any user can securely access the data that the Web Service contains as long as they have access to that server. Have a look on image below that shows the information flow to and from the server via the client.
Advantages to QaaWS:
Very easy to use and intuitive interface Familiar look and feel for people who have used Web Intelligence
Leverages existing Business Objects Universes Shares metadata with Web Intelligence, Desktop Intelligence and Crystal Reports
Maintains Business Objects Enterprise Security
Allows live data feeds to be incorporated into Xcelsius Dashboards and Crystal Reports

Domain Object and Service oriented pattern

We have J2EE based application with following components, we are facing some issues with existing system.
Current System : We have J2EE based application. The following is the flow.
Client Layer [including JSP, Struts ] action classes  Delegates  Session fa�ade [Session bean]  DAO EJBDAO  EJB. We use CMP, xDoclets , JBOSS.
1.     Our Domain objects are heavy. I know they are suppose to be coarse objects but they take more time in loading. Also, we noticed one thing that lot of methods are called during Domain Object creation process and it takes lot of time in loading. Actually, we dont really know what is happening as we are using CMPs.
Question :
-     Any input on what can be done to avoid Domain object excessive loading time.
-     Anyone can share there experiences with Domain objects. Are you facing issues related with performance.
-     We dont use DTO, we pass domain objects between. Do you see any problem in doing that.
2.     Currently, our system was used by one single front end or lets say we have only one client but soon we will have more clients using it.
Question :
-     What should be our design approach. How can we make our system more like service oriented. If the two clients demand different business logic then how it will be handled. Business logic common to all the clients will be handled by which layer and business logic specific to client will be handles by which layer.
-     Please suggest based on our existing infrastructure. We don�t want to use SOAP or cannot make drastic changes to our flow.
We have domain and services in the same package and we are doing the refactoring of code, your inputs will be valuable.
Thanks

What type of logger do you use and what is the loger-level during production?
If it is log4j set the logger to level INFO or WARN.
This might sound trivia but can make a difference between 20seconds and 500 ms.

RE: Re[2]: Service Object events and LockMgr

I think there are a lot to implement a lock manager. If several objects
should be updated in one transaction, the lock manager should be able to
handle rollbacks. Other things like release lock when exception happens,
avoiding dead locks, etc. Most of the features are provided by DBMS, so
I think using a option 2 would be a better solution.

The second one - you just need some unique value that will identify
the object being locked. You should register with the Lock
Manager only
the objects that you want to lock.
For me, one of the goal of such pattern is to give you some freedom
from the specifics of the database lock mechanism.
Another benefit that I can see is that using such approach you can
always answer to the question: "Can I modify/delete this object?".

Explicity mapping between ActionScript and Java objects for the BlazeDS Messaging Service

The BlazeDS documentation shows how to explicitly map between ActionScript and Java objects. For example, this works fine for RPC services, e.g.
import flash.utils.IExternalizable;
import flash.utils.IDataInput;
import flash.utils.IDataOutput;
[Bindable]
[RemoteClass(alias="javaclass.User")]
public class User implements IExternalizable {
        public var id : String;
        public var secret : String;
        public function User() {
        public function readExternal(input : IDataInput) : void {
                id = input.readObject() as String;
        public function writeExternal(output : IDataOutput) : void {
                output.writeObject(id);
and
import java.io.Externalizable;
import java.io.IOException;
import java.io.ObjectInput;
import java.io.ObjectOutput;
import java.util.HashSet;
import java.util.Iterator;
import java.util.Set;
public class User implements Externalizable {
    protected String id;
    protected String secret;
    public String getId() {
        return id;
    public void setId(String id) {
        this.id = id;
    public String getSecret() {
        return secret;
    public void setSecret(String secret) {
        this.secret = secret;
    public void readExternal(ObjectInput in) throws IOException,
                ClassNotFoundException {
        id = (String) in.readObject();
    public void writeExternal(ObjectOutput out) throws IOException {
        out.writeObject(id);
If I called an RPC service that returns a User, the secret is not sent over the wire. Is it also possible to do this for the messaging service? That is, if I create a custom messaging adapter and use the function below, can I also prevent secret from being sent?
MessageBroker messageBroker = MessageBroker.getMessageBroker(null);
AsyncMessage message = new AsyncMessage();
message.setDestination("MyMessagingService");
message.setClientId(UUIDUtils.createUUID());
message.setMessageId(UUIDUtils.createUUID());
User user = new User();
user.setId("id");
user.setSecret("secret");
message.setBody(user);
messageBroker.routeMessageToService(message, null);

Hi Martin. The way that AMF serialization/deserialization works for BlazeDS is the same regardless of which service is being used, so yes that code will work for messaging as well. On the server, the serialization/deserialization of messages happens at the endpoint. For an incoming message for example, the endpoint deserializes the message and then hands it off to the MessageBroker which decides which service/destination to deliver the message to.
That was a good question. Thanks for asking it. Lots of people are used to doing custom serialization/deserialization with the RPC services (RemoteObject/RemotingService) but I'm not sure everyone realizes they can do this for messaging as well.

Call your carrier and see if there is an outage in your area... Try re-setting the phone. Go to another location and see if the problem persists. Pay your phone bill. These are all possibilities. Without more information, we're just guessing.

IView and system admin objects appear changed or not registered when transported

Hi,
Recently we moved a few objects - iViews, pages and roles as epa and system admin objects as config archive and imported them manually to Test system. But when checked in the next landscape, the iView properties appear different. Eg. In Development system, the iView was unchecked for visibility option i.e. iView should not be visible. But when transported to test system, the property was checked and gave error. On reimporting, the same thing happened and we had to manually correct the property. This is not an expected behaviour and manual changes are not to happen after development changes.
Similarly, though config archive import showed the 2 new system objects in the respective location of Test system, the expected functionality was not working. I checked this by deleting one of them and manually creating the same entry and it worked fine. So I also had to delete the 2nd one and create a manual entry. The system admin objects we used pertained to System Configuration --> Content Mgmt--> Form Based Publishing --> Forms Availablity --> Folder Settings
We also moved kmcs and they are reflecting properly with correct folder permissions.
We don't understand why this is so occurring (iView and system admin entry appearing different or not getting registered )and never experienced such a case in previous projects. We don't want to face the issue going forward when transporting changes to staging and Prod systems.
Please assist as to what went wrong or any probable cause and solution for same.
Thanks,
Janani

Is it possible to create web services for classes and bol objects?

i am new to crm web channel,can any one please ,help me....
thank u in advance,
kiran.

Hi Kiran,
Here, when you are talking about classes and BOL objects together, I assume you are talking about the BOL layer for CRM. If that is the case, and you have no dependency on WCEM for these objects, I would suggest you use the NW gateway to expose Odata web services from the CRM box itself. If you would like to expose the Odata web services from WCEM, please have a look at Ch 7 Dev & Extension Guide available in help.sap.com/wec301.
Good luck!
Regards

Thanks

The ONLY source of unlocked iPhones in UK is Apple retail Stores ( Apple owned )
all others will be locked to a carrier (did you buy from carphonewarehouse )
Only the carrier who locked it can unlock the iPhone
Apple do NOT unlock iPhones
If you purchased from Apple (the Apple ) then contact the store
if not it is locked to a carrier

ITS iviews and services objects
