MSS PCR modify help link

MSS 60.1 in PCRs on the actual change request form at the bottom right hand side there is a link
'For more information, click here'
that takes the user to www.sap.com. The docs don't describe how to config this to point to a useful help link.
Can anyone tell me how to config this or do I have to find the relevant JSP page in the package and hack it?
Thanks
J

Achim,
Very good. I found it in the pcrutilities package about an hour ago by unzipping and searching through...
Guidelines URL
GuidelinesURL.value=http://www.sap.com/
GuidelinesURL.description=GuidelinesDescription
GuidelinesURL.plainDescription=URL for Guidelines document
GuidelinesURL.personalization=no-dialog
I'll still give you points though don't worry...
Is there a way of configing the "GuidelinesURL.value" default.properties in the EP6. Seems a bit dirty to Z the whole business package just to change these strings.
Many THanks
Stu

its very urgent anybody can help out this, what settings ot be done on R/3 server and Portal and ADS server
Thanks in advance
Gopal

Hello Gopal,
You would only need an https connecion between the browser and the portal server if you are only concerned with the MSS applications. You need to have SSL configured from the portal to ADS server had you implemented some custom scenarios like certification, digital signature etc. But, considering your MSS issue, you do not need to worry about it untill and otherwise your landscape demands you to do so for any security reason.
Well, you might have already gone through the following link, incase not, please go through the link to find out more on how to confugre SSL on the j2ee engine:

I am using SPPM mss/pcr scenario.
Thanks in advance for any help.
Renato.

Hi Renato,
When you are using PCRs/ISRs the form data is read from the XML data attached to the R/3 Notification object.
ISRFormApprove in particular expects that this XML dat already exists and is correctly attached to the R/3 Notification object.
So:
1) Check your UWL is connecting ok to your SAP system - which I presume it is otherwise you wouldn't be getting the work item.
2) Check the system alias from the system landscape used for your UWL system connection - make sure that its the right one and has the webdynpro host/port/path details defined. Use the Connection Test options in the Portal Content Directory to check it.
3) Check you have passed in a valid R/3 notification number - i.e. you should be able to display the notification in transaction IQS3 in the backend SAP system.
4) Check the XML data is correctly linked to the form. The easiest way is probably to use transaction SE37 test option against function module ISR_SPECIAL_DATA_GET.
It should return a list of all your PCR characterstics and their values.
If all that's working and its still not happening for you, check you have the latest fixes as per SAP notes, and then raise an SAP message.
Regards,
Jocelyn

Custom MSS PCR scenario & fields

HI ,
I have successfully copied the Standard MSS pcr scenarios to Z scenario & forms , as per the guidelines in Development guide for PCR .All the form elements & PCR flow is working fine for Z scenario &
forms .
I need to add some new textfields/dropdown fields to the Z form & scenario.
Is there any sap document that provides deeper understanding of custom fields addition to Z forms /scenario or the only way out is to go through coding .
Thanks & regards,

The Help Link from the Application Pages Does not Work for Peoplesoft Campus Solutions 9.0

Hi everyone.
I have a problem, I have been trying to set up the Help Link from the Application Pages for Peoplesoft Campus Solutions 9.0 according to the instructions given in the Document: http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E17566_01/epm91pbr0/eng/psbooks/EnablingtheHelpLinkfromApplicationPages.pdf , (referenced in the Doc ID 1289101.1, E-PB: How to Set Up the Context Sensitive Help with Hosted PeopleBooks using Universal Linking).
I follow the instructions of that document carefully:
I go to: PeopleTools -> Web Profile -> Web Profile Configuration
    2. Then I choose the Web Profile: "Development".
    3. Then Change the value for the Help URL field by entering the following URL format: http://www.oracle.com/pls/topic/lookup?id=%CONTEXT_ID%&ctx=hrcs90r5 , the ctx parameter selected is the one that correspond to the Campus Solutions (hrcs90r5) according to the Product Line Code Table (ULinkID) especified in the mentioned document.
    4. Stop the Web Domain and Clear cache.
    5. Start the Web Domain again.
After setting up the Web Profile Configuration I test the help links, thas is why I click in the Help link in any Peoplesoft CS 9.0 Application Page (modify a person), but the next error message appears: "We're sorry, the topic you requested was not found.".
I tried many combinations with the ctx parameters URL but it does not work yet.
I did the same test, but this time using the Help URL field with a HRMS ctx parameter by entering the following URL format: http://www.oracle.com/pls/topic/lookup?id=%CONTEXT_ID%&ctx=hcm92pbr5 , and It works fine !!!
According to the previous test you realize that It works with HRMS ctx parameter but not with Campus Solutions 9.0 ctx parameter, Does anybody know what else can I do ? Am I doing anything wrong or missing? or maybe the Oracle's ctx parameter for Campus Solutions URL It is broken simply.
Thanks for you help and feedback.

2799444 - The page you are testing with appears to be a Workforce Administration page. Is that correct?
The CS PeopleBooks would only work for CS pages, e.g.: try navigating to Main Menu > Campus Community > Personal Information > Add/Update a Person
Also, you can use multiple ctx parameters:
E.g.: http://www.oracle.com/pls/topic/lookup?id=%CONTEXT_ID%&ctx=hrcs90r5&ctx=hcm92pbr5&ctx=pt852pbh2
This way the help would work for the HR related pages like Workforce Administration, Campus Solutions pages like Campus Community and also PeopleTools pages like Web Profile Configuration. Hope this clarifies your question. Thanks!

Customize portal "Help" link based on user roles

Is there a chance to customize the Help link URL in Masthead iView based on user roles? The use case we have is that the "Help" should be different for users of the purchasing company from those of the supplying company.
Thanks.

Hello Jay.
This is a multi step process.
Step 1 : Create 2 desktops with everything as same but different mastheads.
- Copy your existing desktop and paste it in your working folder in PCD (Not select Delta link)
- Now download masthead par file.
- Modify your masthead par file where you will disable help link. Rename you masthead file (newMasthead.par) and export it from NWDS. Now import it in portal.
- open your framework page in desktop2. Just add your new masthead in it. Enable the new one and disable the existing one.
Step 2 : Create 2 groups of users. (First one belong to users who wish to see help link . i.e existing desktop) (Second of thoese users who do not have to see help link i.e. newDesktop)
- Assign users to appropriate groups.
- Assign same roles to both groups.
Step 3 : Modify main rule section in PCD.
- If group = HelpLinkUsers Then Desktop1
If group = NoHelpLinkUsers Then Desktop2.
You may find above process bit tedious and lengthy.
But if you wish to further customize your portal then this will be needed one day.
If you find problems in implementing any step then please search in google or SDN.
Please revert back on any specific question on above approach you may face while implementing.
Thanks

Help Links in HCM Forms and Process

Hi Experts,
We have a requirement where we need to open a pop-up window when user clicks on help link on
Adobe forms . For this, we have created a Web dynpro Application and whatever application URL we are getting
We are passing to the Help Link UI element like below.
app.launchURL(URL, true);
when user clicks on the help link that webdynpro application is opening.
But the issue is user donu2019t want to see these URL bar, tool bar , action bar.
So is it possible to hide these URL bar, tool bar , action bar when the application is launching.
It should launch just as a window. If it is possible please let me know.
Thanks,
santosh

Why are you doing all of that? Why not simply use the "additional info" configuration to supply the needed URLs? In this way, you will NEVER have to modify the forms if/when a URL changes or more are needed. It is simply a configuration change. Also, you can make these links specific to the current user of that form step and still be able to share the SAME form among users (ie. an HR Admin does not care to see "Manager Help Link" on a form that they possibly share with managers from a previous step). You are creating much more of a headache and maintenance nightmare for yourself.
Now, that said.....second question....why in the world are you calling some WDA from the form to then launch a URL??!?!?! You can simply place a URL link on the form. Via script, you can also set the window parameters to tell the URL to launch in a new browser window without any toolbars, status bars, etc. Pretty basic Javascript is all you need....not some complicated WDA app.

MSS PCR confirmation -- customization

Hi Experts,
I am facing problem in customizing PCR (request for seperation(enhanced)).
Environment:
EP 7.0 SP 12
ECC 6.0 SP 11
MSS 1.0 SP 09
NWDS 7.0.12
Requirement:
Customize three PCRs in the SAP suggested standard way.
first PCR is request for seperation(enhanced).
In this PCR there are 5 steps
Select Employee
Select Form
Edit Form
Review Form
Send(Save)
After which you get a confirmation page saying:
Your request has been sucessfully ....bla ...bla and your notification number is bla...bla
Now the customization required is that there has to be no workflow, so I (as a portal developer) have to add a push button(update database) on the cofirmation page which would call a RFC with the notification number and that RFC will update the database.
I have configured NWDI and imported all the required components on the development track and there are no dirty DCs, I am able to see all the DCs.
When I have a look at the code in the DC ....mss/pcr it shows me only the initial two screens while the rest of the screens seem to be dynamically generated by the FPM(it is entering FPM event loop).[CORRECT ME IF I AM WRONG]
I am deploying the Self Service Administrator handy for the future.
I am stuck at this point for a week not able proceed.
Please suggest/correct me as to how to proceed further.
Just a reminder that I only have to worry about putting the push button.
Thanx all

You can set up ISR to make sure there is no workflow. However, the end result will be that it still goes to the proper admin to actually make the change (via Action Box config). I think what you seek is an "auto update" which is NOT supported in PCRs. However, in ECC6, you might want to look at the new Process and Forms which are part of HRAS (HR Admin services) that is replacing PCRs. I think it now supports automatic updates. Hope this helps.
