PeopleSoft ESS to be surfaced through SAP Portal

Hi - We have a client who is considering using SAP Portal platform and surfacing the PeopleSoft ESS pages through it... Easy way of doing that would be to either open a new window with the PeopleSoft ESS pages (transactions) or to surface the entire PeopleSoft portal within the SAP Portal framework... Both of them will potentially reduce the user experience. I am very interested in knowing if other organizations have faced this issue - and what have been the various options considered to surface each ESS page (transaction) from PeopleSoft separately.
Thanks

Hope you are doing good. Firstly send and receive the DATA the ERP system should be configured with the required adaptors like Crystal Reports, Siebel, People soft ...... . We have differant adaptors available in the market for SAP.

How to Access data from SAP Content Server through SAP Portal

Hi Experts,
I want to aceess the data from SAP Content server through portal. Currently I am working on LSO business package. The SAP content server should work like Webdav as we uses KM as webdav.
I am trying to use this URL into the CMS address but it is not working
http://XXX-XXX-XXXX:1090/ConTentServer/ContentServer.dll?adminContRep&operation=docIdList&contRep=ZADGAS_LSO
Is there any other procedure for acceesing the DATA from SAP content server. ?
Thanks,
Ahmad

If your Content Server is being used by DMS, then you can use the DMS Connector for KM. This connector allows all documents stored in DMS to be accessed in Portal as if they are stored in KM. For more info see this:

Employee Performance Management in SAP Portal

Hi,
I would like some advice on the best possible way of implementing Performance Management through SAP Portal. What do you suggest?
I was reading about MSS business packages and it comes with two iviews: Status Overview and Performance Management Document; is that all that is necessary to complete the performance process through portal ? I imagine the appraisal documents gets updated and some workflow is configured for approval and review cycle.
Well, any documentation, or experience you can share with me will be very useful.
Thanks
Ivan

There is a lot of configuration on the SAP side that needs to be done. I suggest hiring an experienced consultant and save your time and headaches. Also, watch out for Portal and SAP upgrades. They don't always offer a migration tool and you may have to re-implement somethings after an upgrade of one or the other. Annoying.

What can i do in order user X see que query (on portal) in the default rows-columns??
This problem just happen with user X, others users see the query in the default format with no problems.
I ve tried deleting the portal personalization for user X on sap portal, but the problem persists...

If its Java only error then there wont be any dump in ST22.
Strange issue for you, in general if we get 500 error, there should be details of it in the same page.
You said this issue is occuring for only one user, is it getting replicated every time?
You are also seeing the same error when u login as that particular user?
Do one thing, assign him the Content Admin role and then do the preview of this iView form content admin and see if ur still seeing this error.

Hi Arjun
Please check the SAP portal and BI system version and then check the compatibility for BEx Query in IE9.
Refer to http://service.sap.com/pam >> Click on SAP Netweaver version, here you can find the PDF files.
BI (BEX Web) is supported on IE9 with SAP porta version 7.0 SPS24 in vista or windows 7 if you SAP portal version is 7.0

Hello Rupachandran,
the memory id won't work as it is within the current session only.
you have two main options:
1) pass parameters in URL
2) persist the parameters somehow ( shared memory area, database table ) and pass a GUID in the URL which refers to these.
strangely enough although this is a mirror of most of the posts here, which want to launch WDA apps from standard GUI based code, the techniques are very very similar.
you might get some help from looking at this recent post Calling webdypro through R3 Function module

SAP BW report through CRM portal

Hi,
I have a requirement where we need to open SAP BW query/web template through CRM7.0 portal. Could you please tell me all the necessary configuration steps that we need to do in CRM system for carrying out this task?
Thanks,
Rahul

Hello Rahul,
i guess you mean CRM Webclient UI - or do you mean SAP Portal?
In CRM70 webclient UI go to SPRO.
CRM->UI Framework->UI Framework Definition->Display SAP Netweaver BI Reports in SAP CRM.
Here you will find the complete documentation what you need to do.
A prerequisite is to define the RFC-Destinations in SM59 between CRM and BI.
Kind regards

Do we need to install SAP Portal for implementation of ESS & MSS

Hi All,
We are implementing SAP (ECC 6.0) for one of our client, Due to some contractual limitations, we do not want to implement SAP portal though it is a part of standard delivery, I want to know that is it absolutely necessary to install and implement SAP portal for implementation of ESS & MSS.
What i know and understand is that with the new architecture ESS & MSS can be deployed and accessed as a stand alone application on an internet browser by (Web dynpro client) without any need of enterprise portal. While ESS & MSS application can be hosted on Web application server.
Please validate my understanding if it is correct, Also does the new Web dynpro based client support all the functionality and authorization related issues for ESS & MSS ??
Regards
Amit Ajmera

Hi Amit,
Yes, you can run ESS/MSS as WebDynpro application without having to deploy on Portal. However, the look and feel and user accessibility is much better when deployed as Portal page. For WebDynpro, you will still need to publish the individual URL link to application somewhere...
Another point is that on portal you can deploy standard Business package specific to ESS and MSS which contains lots of readymade iviews/page/roles etc so it can reduce your development cost dramatically.
But, at the end it all depends on your individual requirement and project scope.
Cheers !!
Satya.

TIME on ESS/MSS with the SAP Portal, release ERP2005 ECC6.

Hello,
I need to implement TIME (Leave request) on ESS/MSS with the SAP Portal, release ERP2005 ECC6.
Any informations about the customizing for a proof of concept would be appreciated.
All the back-end (R/3) as allready been customized.
Thanks for your responses.
Olivier

Hello,
If you already have all the templates and such configured then its easy. We don't have ESS and only one MSS scenario. However we support the web environment via BSP HAP_DOCUMENT. You can include our list pages in an Iview and assign that to the ESS or MSS scenario in the portal.
They also run stand alone, so you can test it as well without configuring the portal.
See also <a href="/people/sap.user72/blog/2007/02/20/objective-setting-appraisals-the-web-environment bloggy</a> on OSA and the web Environment, especially the last part will be of interest for you.

SAP Portal Custom Themes to change ESS/MSS UI Look and feel , possible ?

Hi,
I have a requirement where the look and feel of the UI controls of the ESS/MSS applications have to be different - Jazzy
I know XSS homepage framework is for the customisation of Areas, Sub Areas. What I am more interested is only the look and feel UI of ESS/MSS applications.
If I change the standard theme of portal using Theme Editor and create a new custom theme with different back ground colors, fonts, sizes for all the UI controls,.Will the customised Theme apply on the standard ESS / MSS screens ? Also my doubt is we are using EHP3 and I am not sure how many are Webdynpro java based or webdynpro Abap based.
Will the theme apply to both WDA and WDJ application UI controls?
Any inputs in this regard will be of great help. thanks in advance.

SAP Portal ESS SingleSignOn

Hi!
We are facing following Problem in our Sap Portal Environment.
First of all SSO was working as intended. But after a Windows DC Migration with new computernames and new physical hosts we had to reconfigure SSO on our Portal-Servers. After the reconfiguration, SSO seemed to work again for everyone....but then some users started facing following problem (maybe 1 out of 100): That user cant login to SAP ESS via SSO. But when that person moves to another computer SSO is working there. So basically AD-Useraccount seems to be ok. So we thought "ok maybe a local computer problem". So a user with a working SSO tried to login on that "problem-computer" that had SSO problems. But SSO was working there suddenly with that user. So basically its not working only with that one useraccount on that specific computer. That user can login via SSO on every other computer and also other users can login via SSO on that "problem-computer". We have several users right now that are facing that problem on their own computers.
Our Windows group says that they cant see any problem in their Active Directory and point with their fingers on the SAP Portal as error source. So my Question: Is there any chance, that this problem really has his roots in the SAP Portal. i mean SSO is working for like 99% of the users. only for like 1% its not working only on their own specific computers. On other computers those 1% can also login via SSO.
i would be really thankful for every idea!
regards Alex

Hi,
for SSO, the browser has to get a HTTP 401 from the server. The browser should than get the token and send it to the server:
Authorization: Negotiate YIIQCQYGKwYBBQUCoII long cryptic text P/TCCDBdxfqo=
If the browser cannot resolve the SPN, or get it wrong, the browser will ignore the 401 or send a short Authorization answer back.
What you can check besides the HTTP trace with the user::
- Check if the computer of the user is in the domain and that the DNS is set correctly on that computer
- Verify the logon process on the server with diagtool (complex but gives you every detail)
- The users are using the same userID in the LDAP and UME?
- All are using IE or some are using Firefox? In both the configuration for SSO has to be enables. IE: Windows integrated authentication + check the security zone. In FF: about:config and enter the correct domain.

ESS in NWBC or ESS in SAP-Portal

Dear experts.
I am begin with the configuration for ESS & MSS and I have the following doubt:
1. What roles should I use if use ESS in NWBC?
2. What roles should I use if use ESS in SAP Portal?
With this two option , What is the better option for work ESS? And who should define what option use (Basis)?
Thanks in advance
Regards

Hi Juan
we can Use T-code LPD_CUST & PFCG based on the scenarios, you can use SAP_ESS_EMPLOYEE_WDA_2 Composite Role from PFCG.
Having EP is a benefit for using WDA & WDJ services, but if you go for NWBC you only have a provision to use WDA. if you are in EHP 5 then few services are still in Java & its not suggested much to use NWBC. For NWBC we don't need to buy any licenses as it comes by default. only thing we need to do is to activate the appropriate Business Functions.
