Thanking you in advance ...

Premkishan Chourasia

Hi Premkishan,
First create the required Themes
System Administration --> Portal Display --> Theme Editor
Select any one of the already existing themes and save as your new theme.
Second - Create a portal Desktop
System Administration --> Portal Display --> Desktops and Display rules
Expand the Portal content. Create your own folder.
Then go to Portal content --> Portal users --> Standard portal users -->Default framework page. Copy this Default framework page and place in the folder you created.
Right click on the created folder and create new desktop.
Now Right click on the copied default framework page and Select Add Frameworkpage to Portal Desktop.
Now go to the place where you created the Theme and right click the theme and select Add theme to portal Desktop.
Now in the creation of the new portal desktop select the entries and select the button "Set Default" for both the options and then save
Third -
Go to Portal content --> Portal Administrators -->Super administrators -->Main rules.
Right click and select edit object.
Click "Add IF Expression". Another IF statement is added. Already existing IF statement is necessarry.
Here you select If user = some user
Click the "Then" Statement
Now go to the Portal desktop you created and right click the portal desktop and select "Add portal desktop to expression".
Now save the rule collection.
You are done for one user.
For other users you follow the same procedure.
Now close the browser and open again. After some time you will see the new portal branding for the specified user.
Hope this helps.
Regards
Arun

Questions on Portal branding

Dear Portal specialists,
Some questions on Portal branding :
1) Can I include a logo file on the top LHS where we see "WELCOME" user.
We dont want to customise it.
2) Can we move the "WELCOME " user to the middle of the page.
Thanks.

Check these link.. and pick up one which suits you:
Simplest is to replace the existing branding images , you can achieve it by
1) Go to Administration -> System Configuration ->
UM Configuration -> Direct Editing.
2)Change the following entry to match your
image or change the brandingimage.jpg:
ume.logon.branding_image=/logon/layout/mybranding.jpg
3) The correct path where to save the file would be:
<Drive>:usrsap<SID>JC<Instance_Nr>j2eeclusterserver0appssap.comcom.sap.security.core.adminservlet_jsplogon

Transaction SE16: Field selection (User-Specific Settings) is NOT working for ALL tables

Hi Guru’s,
I have an issue in Transaction SE16, Field selection (User-Specific Settings) is NOT working in Tables (ALL tables).
Following is the screenshot attached for your kind reference,
That is in the initial screen of transaction SE16 if I choose Filed Name or Filed Label only the technical details (Field Names) are appearing and not the descriptions like Client, Purchasing Doc, and Company Code Doc. Category Document Type etc…
Right now I am using ECC6 and EHP7 SAP system.
Please help me to resolve this issue by implementing any OSS note or User Role creations or any technical changes required in system.
Hope the requirement is clear and in case need any clarification please revert back.
NOTE: Right now in Development System we don’t have any successful user to compare the settings.
Regards,
Kumar.S

Thanks Patra.
Even I searched in SAP portal and couldn't able to find the relevant OSS note.
Following is my BASIS team response,
"Only you can view Table Field values from higher release"
Can you suggest / guide on this comment as well.
Looking forward to your speedy response.

Problem in user-specific search results

Hi All,
I have created an index which is indexing the docs properly. Now, I written a code to show user-specific docs using index management API's..
I have used an EP5 current user.
ISearchResultList results = session.getSearchResults(1,session.getNumberResultKeys());
In the following stmt, I am getting the proper value for session.getNumberResultKeys(), but still ISearchResultList size always is zero.
Is there anything I am missin in code or its a configuration problem??
I have full control permissions to index as well as to repository folder..Can someone plz get me out of this problem..Its urgent
Thanks & Regards,
Udit

Hi Udit,
I got the solution for the problem. Here is the code I am using and its working great. Just give a try
com.sapportals.portal.security.usermanagement.IUser user = null;
user = (com.sapportals.portal.security.usermanagement.IUser)request.getUser().getUser();
response.write("<html><head><title>Search</title></head><body>");
ResourceContext c = new ResourceContext(user);
try {
IIndexService indexService =
 (IIndexService) ResourceFactory
 .getInstance()
 .getServiceFactory()
 .getService(IServiceTypesConst.INDEX_SERVICE);
 SearchQueryListBuilder sqb = new SearchQueryListBuilder();
 sqb.setSearchTerm("valero");
 IQueryEntryList qel = sqb.buildSearchQueryList();
 // get an instance of federated search
IFederatedSearch federatedSearch =
 (IFederatedSearch) indexService.getObjectInstance(
 IWcmIndexConst.FEDERATED_SEARCH_INSTANCE);
 List indexList = new ArrayList();
 String index = null;
 if (index != null && index.length() > 0) {
 // take a specified index from index= parameter
 indexList.add(indexService.getIndex(index));
 } else {
 // take all available indexes
 indexList = indexService.getActiveIndexes();
 // it is recommended to use a search session object
 // for searching execution
 ISearchSession session = null;
 if (session == null)
 session = federatedSearch.searchWithSession(qel, indexList, c);
 this.renderResultHeader(response, session, indexList);
 // get all results from the search session
 ISearchResultList results = session.getSearchResults(1, session.getTotalNumberResultKeys());
 response.write(" from session => " + results.size() + " and size is : " + results.toString());
Here it will print the size of the ISearchResultList, the problem is the user we are passing to ResourceContext is not proper.

Is there any process to make iviews as user specific visibility?

Hi all,
I had an application on the portal.Is it possible to make it visible only for some users only .I know it can be made it by using 2 different roles.But I want to use the same role as the rest of the applications are common for everybody.Is there any possibilty making iviews as user specific visible?
thanx and regards,
rajesh

there is nothing like user specific visiblity.you have only role based display which you are aware .
or you can set the permissions to that iview by giving the username to whom u want to give the access

Clear Flag for BPS user-specific variable values

Hi Experts!
I have a 'user-specific variable' settintg with the flag 'on', then the user should choose only one value.
But now I need execute an abap program which read all values available for this variable. For this reason, I need clear this flag with abap code, and after put on again.
Could somebody show me a small piece of abap code for this?
Thank you in advance!

Hi,
Analysis of your question:
Second line of your question "...which read all values available for this variable".
1) When you mean you wish to read all possible values with which the variable could be filled up, then please use the Function Module:
UPC_CHA_VALUES_GET
The parameter ETO_CHAVL would then return all master data of the variable's characteristic
2) When you mean you wish to read all the variable values "selected from the user in the past" then use the function module
API_SEMBPS_VARIABLE_GET_DETAIL
Here the table ETK_VARSEL_ALL returns you all the values selected by user in the past. The "current selected value" for the user is stored in the table "ETK_VARSEL".
Check out these How-To Documents. If these dosen't suffices, then please elaborate your requirement, for me to write a ABAP Pseudo-code.

Control User Specific button in ALV report

Hi,
Can anybody please suggest me how to control "USER SPECIFIC" button in ALV report layout using authorization object. I mean if you can tell me which authorization object is responsible to control the "USER SPECIFIC" button.

additional info to what Lakshmi already said:-
normally the restrictions for saving layouts/display variants are done at 2 levels:
1) The developer of an ALV list first predetermines the authorization in the 'i_save' parameter within the code.
I_SAVE = ' '     -
layouts cannot be saved
I_SAVE = 'A'   -
user-specific and cross-user layouts can be saved
I_SAVE = 'X'   --- cross-user layouts can be saved
I_SAVE = 'U' --- user-specific layouts can be saved
2) The second level comes to us restriciting the S_ALV_LAYO which gives access to users to save global layouts if I_SAVE for that particular transaction is A or X.
for example, a report has I_SAVE= 'A', which means
it will allow to save User-specific layouts without any restrictions.
and if user has S_ALV_LAYO then he can save both User-Specific and Global Layouts(variants).
it would be better to keep this object separate.

Hi ,
My problem is still not resolved. I tried applying the people picker property and set a specific field(an email id field) to be available to only admins. Now the field is not visible to the normal users but only admins which is good but that email field
should be able to take normal users as wel as admin's email ID. currently due to the people picker property it only takes admin's ID and not normal user's ID - which is not as per expectation.
What this email ID field does is - when a normal user is logged in he/she wont see this field in that view. But when an admin logs in he/she can switch to admin view and see this field . The admin can put any user's ID in this field and pull out the required
resource's Time Report for modification.
Please let me know how do i overcome my problem. Detailed step description will be very helpfull .
As per Cameron's suggestion (add a rule on the "additional admin section") , i am not sure how exactly that is done. Would help a lot if i got to know how this works.

Guru

Setting user specific contract data while creating sales order using BAPI

Hi all,
I am creating sales order using BAPI - BAPI_SALESORDER_CREATEFROMDAT2.
Now my problem is that there is no structure for contract data (i.e. VEDA), system automatically set contract data using customization values.
I am doing some validations on cotract data in MV45AFZZ which fails, because these validations are performed on standard values, user specific values r not set.
How to handle this issue, your small clue may help a lot.
Regards,
S@meer

HI
Pricing will be carried basing on the pricing
procedure.
Case1: Prices will be carried out automatically if
necessary condition records are maintained for the
condition type.
For this you can go to Sales Order-> Item Conditions
In the screen you can click on command button Analysis,
which gives you the list of condition types associated
to the pricing procedure. By clicking on the condition
type you can know the action that has taken place.
Case2: Manually forcing prices for Items.
To do this, you have to populate ORDER_CONDITIONS_IN &
ORDER_CONDITIONS_INX. Also note to identify the item
numbers, you manually pass the item number for each item
in the sales order, use the same item number for
populating conditions.
Parameters required:
ORDER_CONDITIONS_IN:
ITM_NUMBER, COND_TYPE, COND_VALUE, CURRENCY
ORDER_CONDITIONS_INX:
ITM_NUMBER, COND_TYPE, UPDATEFLAG, COND_VALUE,CURRENCY.
Hope the above info helps you. Do revert back if you
need more info.
Kind Regards

Strange user-specific display problem

I use my MacBook with an external AG Neovo F-419 19"screen. I have one screen at work and another at home. It works beautifully except for one strange phenomenon: when I log into my account and watch the screen during start up, whereas it starts out having nice even-contrast graphics with a good color range, as the boot progresses it goes through two changes. At the first change the color balance changes, probably reflecting a calibration that I have done in the past kicking in from the Display Preferences info. But then it goes through a second change in which the contrast becomes extreme and the color range perhaps reduced and this then stays and I cannot reverse it by changing the settings in Display Prefs (I can alter the contrast, brightness, color balance etc. but I can't restore the normal color and contrast whatever I do). Bizarrely, however, I can restore things to normal just by rotating the screen and then Reverting to normal orientation.
This is user specific as it doesn't happen if I login as another users and it reappaears when I log back in (andagain gets undone by rotating the screen). It seems not to be a function of a particular Display Profile as I have tried changing them and deleting, ditto for the Prefs file in my User Library. Moreover, the external display does not need to be connected - it happens when I use the Macbook on it's own, which is very annoying because then I cannot rotate the screen to get rid of it!
If anyone has any ideas I would be very grateful as I do not want to transfer thousands of files into a new User account (I should say that I thnk this problem first arose in Tiger when I had another machine and it has migrated along with the User settings!!). Help!!
Andy

Hi,
I think you can only display a maximum message of 128 characters. There is also another function module SCCA_TH_POPUP which also has a message size of max 128 characters.

User specific default variant in a selectio screen

Is it possible to provide an option to create user specific default variant in a selection screen?
I have developed a custom report program. Now I want to allow users to choose one of their variants as default variant ? Please help.

Hi very Simple and easy solution:
In SE93 when u are creating the transaction for the program use the option 'Start with variant' and give your own vaiant name for the program start. This will help you in starting your proam always with your default variant.
Hope That Helps
