Portal/Pagelet Question

Hey everyone. I'm new user to Peoplesoft Portal and I'm trying to configure the My Tasks pagelet so it's visible whenever any user signs on to the system (I'm on Peopletool 8.49, Peoplesoft 9). Where can I set this up?
Thank you all very much for any and all responses.

You can enable it in Peopletools > Portal > Structure and Content. Then go to Root >Portal Objects >Homepage >Tabs and click on Edit for the My Page content reference. Then click on Tab Content and you can enable it there with options.

  • Portal Secret Question

    Hi,
    I need to develop a report using PDK / Web Dynpro to generate Report of users who have not set the Secret Question in Portal. . Could someone share sample code for getting Portal Secret Question through UME API? . We are having NW 7.0 SP17 landscape. The purpose of the report is to send mail to users asking them to set the secret question who have not maintained the secret questions . When they forget the password , request is created for auth team to reset the user's password.
    In general , Is there any way to enforce the user to set the portal secret question during initial logon or at least whether report can be developed using UME API.
    Thanks

    Hi Vasu,
    Try printing all namespace and attibutes using following code. You might find the required namespace-attribute mapping.
    IWDClientUser wdClientUser1 = WDClientUser.getCurrentUser();
    IUser user = wdClientUser1.getSAPUser();
    try
         String[] namespaces = user.getAttributeNamespaces();
         for(int i=0; i<namespaces.length; i++)
              response.write("<br>Processing namespace "+namespaces<i>);
              response.write("<br>==================================");
              String[] attributes = user.getAttributeNames(namespaces<i>);
              for(int j=0; j<attributes.length; j++)
                   response.write("<BR>ATTRIBUTE NAME="+attributes[j]);               
    catch(Exception e)
         response.write(e.getMessage());
    Also, check out UME API : http://help.sap.com/javadocs/NW04S/current/se/overview-summary.html
    Hope this helps.

  • Returning Hyperlinks in Portal Pagelets

    I created a component that stores announcements in a table that are posted in a pagelet in an employee portal. I would like to embed hyperlinks in the announcements, but they are presented as raw text in the return set.
    Is there a trick that I can use by changing the xsl code?
    The administrators will use an html editor to generate the code and will paste it in a text field to be saved to the database. When the pagelet launches, it will display a list of current announcements like:
    * There will be a Spring Book Fair at the Main Street Location, click here for more info.
    * All Manager Surveys are due by May 23

    Would't be easier to create component with a long field on it?
    The announcements that should be presented in the pagelet could be entered using the Rich Text Editor (introduced in PT8.50), which automatically stores the data in HTML and presents it as HTML, so you can have hyperlinks. PeopleTools provides all the necessarily features to accomplish this.
    See following demo I had created on Interwindow Communication and pay attention to the right pagelet, with hyperlinks.

  • Oracle 9i AS Portal download questions

    I read the installation guide for Oracle 9iAS (the guide for all of AS, not just the Portal component). I have some questions that were not addressed in the documentation.
    1) Do you need to download the entire Oracle9i Application Server in order to download and access the Oracle Portal component? I understand there's three levels of downloads (minimal, standard, and enterprise), and that even the minimal edition contains Oracle 9iAS. However, I was hoping to minimize space and memory required when working with Oracle Portal. (I just need to configure databases and manage database security, both of which can be done using Oracle Portal.)
    2) I already have Microsoft Peer Web Services installed on my computer. (That's the development environment in which you can test Cold Fusion and ASP code.) Will this conflict with the Oracle 9iAS, since both are servers that may affect, or be affected by, network configurations - even if they're both in a local, standalone test environment?
    (I can't just remove PWS since I do need it for testing Cold Fusion and/or ASP development code.)
    3) I understand that in order to download Oracle 9iAS, I need to already have access to an Oracle database. What mimimum version of Oracle do I need to be working with? The installation guide states that I can find out more information about database requirements at http://metalink.oracle.com. However, I can't even register for this site in order to access it, because it requires a "Support Identifier (CSI, SAC, Access Code etc.)" However, the CSI for the company where I work has expired - so I can't access that area for info.
    It seems that I may need to use Oracle 8i. I just downloaded the Installation Guide for the Oracle 8i Personal Edition. Would that be sufficient to work with a standalone (personal edition/evaluation copy) of Oracle9i AS?
    I hope to hear from someone soon about these issues! Thanks.

    1)Portal is an integrated component of 9iAS. You need to download all of 9iAS and select the minimal install option.
    2)We haven't tested this configuration, but as long as you set up apache appropriately to use different ports than the existing software it should work.
    3)Portal requires 8.1.6.2 Enterprise edition or 8.1.7 Standard edition. Personal Edition will not work.

  • New Portal Implementation Questions?

    Hi,
    We've just started a Portal Implementation in our company. Our environment is as follow:
    - EP 6.0 SP9 (NW04 SR1 version)
    - SAP 4.6C System (WPPI installed)
    - Lotus Notes/Domino (we are using Domino LDAP)
    My Questions are as follow:
    1. Can we integrate Domino LDAP with portal? If not how can we access domino user database in this environment?Because all company users exist in domino database but small subset of company users have SAP user.
    2. Currently I've created a system for 46C r3 system in system landscape and set it to use UIDPW for user management. I've mapped one of portal user with a SAP user and created iviews to run with wingui and webgui. All worked successfully. My question is that if there is any wey to enable SAP users to logon Portal without mapping? Online Docs. says that it is not possible to use R3 systems other than based on 620 WAS as a datasource for UME.
    Regards

    Hi Huseyin,
    You need to create system in EP.
    System administration>System Configuration>system landscape-->
    1) create one folder like "system"
    2) create system in the above folder
    3) Enter all the details of R/3 System
    4) create Iview and link to the R/3 system
    you could allways look at the manual:

  • Federated Portal Related question

    Hello Guys,
    I am working on federating portal i.e BI portal and EP portal federation.
    My question is, for remote role assignments do we need to use the same user store similar to BI and EP or can we use different user stores for the remote roles other than BI and EP.
    If so please explain me.
    Thank you

    Hi Sree,
    For content sharing interactions between NetWeaver portals in your federation network, users on the consumer portal must also exist in the user store utilized by the producer portal; otherwise runtime authorization for remote-based content will fail.
    You may use:
    Single user store: Using a single physical user store that serves all your portal installations.
    Distributed user stores with exact duplication: Using two or more distributed user stores, typically one at each portal installation, which are exact replicas of one another.
    Distributed user stores with partial duplication: Using two or more distributed user stores, typically one at each portal installation, whereby only portal users that are assigned to remote content are copied to the user store on the producer portal.
    Since the federated portal network makes use of logon tickets for authentication, the users' logon IDs must be identical on both the consumer portal and the producer portal. Therefore, if you are using user stores of different types within the network, for example LDAP on consumer and ABAP on producer, the logon IDs must be identical across the user bases.
    Hope this is useful.

    Anagha

  • Portal Language Questions

    Hi ALL,
    I have a question. I am changing the portal language.
    1)Do I need to change back end  language.
    2)If I need to change the back end language, tell me which of these back ends need to change the language setting.
    ECC
    SRM
    CRM ISA
    MDM
    BI
    Please guide me on this.
    Regards
    Keerthi

    Hi Marcus,
    We recently installed more Portal languages for an SSO project. This resulted in some IAC iViews no longer letting the user through to the backend over the ITS server if a language was used that was not available on the backend. The user would get a logon screen instead of the transaction with the language set to the portal language.
    You can configure the iView to force a language that's available on the backend, but you can only select a single language here. If a user has a language selected in the Portal that would be available on the backend, then he will still be forced to work with that forced language...
    So far I am unaware of a solution where you can pull the available languages on the backend directly. Our solution was to a enter the available languages in a parameter in the transaction iView, then read this parameter and see if the user has one of these languages selected. If not, then he's forced to use a fallback language (English for example).
    You can read more about it here:
    https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/sdn/go/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/de95e490-0201-0010-b390-f0f23a95e2b8
    So yeah, in essence you don't get an error per say, but you will be forced to change you r language in the iView before you can logon.
    Cheers,
    Hermann

  • Portal Security Question

    Our SAP Portal Version is NetWeaver 7.01 SP5 which uses an ABAP UME .
    We are planning to implement the Security Question Feature and it has been implemented in Test systems Succesfully .
    The Issue is that there are already 20,000 + Users in Portal .
    What we plan to do is set "Birthdate" as default Question for users Already in the Portal so that when user goes to change his password he can give his birthdat and his password is reset .
    The issue is , I do not know , which TABLE stores the Security Question and Answer .
    Any Ideas !!!
    Regards,
    Ashish .A. Poojary

    That's sound good!
    We will definitely try this way.
    Meanwhile we decided to play safe.
    We recently configured the security question feature for portal with thousands of existing users. We need to configure date of birth as default questions for all these existing users.
    Now me made a small change in plan, we are planning to set Birth Year as Security question. So we will collection the encrypted
    code for each year from portal  database, then try to schedule a batch of jobs to update Q&A for different set of users based on their Birth Year.
    Will update you the status.
    Thank you Voros  for your great support.  Happy Christmas!
    Regards

  • Portal Branding question

    Hello Portal Gurus -
        I am trying to customize my logon page of the Portal to a custom one, which has all the images of the company, instead of the SAP Netweaver logos, which comes out of the box with SAP Netweaver 04s SR2 installation.
    I referred to the weblog A fast and easy Portal logon page customizing to perform the necessary changes to replace the old SAP NW logos to  a custom one. After I replaced the images, I stll see old image, even after the restart of the server. I also tried to replace the images, after stopping the server, then replacing the imges with new ones and then proceeded to restart the server.
    What else is missing here?
    Am I missing anything on this or is there any additional step that is to be done?
    Thanks,
    LB

    Hi Leena,
    Did you clear you local cache?!
    If yes, right-click on one of the images in question and post the URL here.
    Hope it helps

  • PeopleSoft portal - Pagelet

    Hi All,
    I am trying to display 2 different components in a single pagelet. we will be displaying one components page while loading the pagelet with a button. On click of that button we will be displaying the second components page. Again this second component page will have the button to go back to the first component.
    We had done this in PT8.49 through IScript based pagelets. We will be passing the component URL to an iframe to display the component. On click of button again we will be generating the next component url and passing it to iframe then %response.redirect url. This is perfectly working in PT8.49. But we got a problem with PT8.52 iframe auto resize hence planned to change the IScript based pagelet to component based pagelet.
    Is there any other better approach to do this?
    Is it possible to acheive by giving HTML data source --> Pagelet wizard method?
    Thanks,
    Hari.A

    You can enable it in Peopletools > Portal > Structure and Content. Then go to Root >Portal Objects >Homepage >Tabs and click on Edit for the My Page content reference. Then click on Tab Content and you can enable it there with options.

  • Some general portal caching questions

    Hi experts,
    I have some general questions regarding caching functions in portal.
    1. In System administration->Navigation I can activate navigation cache. By default there are 3 connectors: Collaboration Connector, ROLES and gpn.
    I guess Collaboration Connector caches Collaboration Content and Roles caches the content of the Role-based navigation? Is that correct? What is gpn-connector?
    2. This cache does only cache the navigation structures? Not the iviews and the content?
    3. For some iViews and pages I can activate caching in PCD with certain cache levels. That caching is not related to navigation caching?
    4. I can't activate caching for web dynpro Java iviews and web dynpro java proxy pages. Is that corect? If not how can I achieve that. Those settings are deactivated for me, so I can't activate them.
    5. In Visual Admin I can activate navigation cache under com.sap.portal.prt.sapj2ee. Is this option related to the setting I can set under system administration->navigation in portal? Because I avtivated the option in portal but in VA it still showed it as not activated.
    I crawled some documentation but couldn't find exact information.
    Thanks and regards
    Manuel

    Hi,
    1. GPN is Guided Procedures Navigation connector
    2. Yes only Navigation nodes are cached (TopLevel and Detailed Navigation nodes)
    3. Here it is PCD Caching, which has nothing to do with Navigation caching
    4.  I never tried this, but It looks like what you say is true.
    5. What you see in VA is old caching mechanism. So this is obsolete and can be ignored.
        So you should only use the options from system administration->navigation
    Changes in the Navigation Cache

  • Portal Database Question

    We have a EP6SP2 patch2 install and we need help.
    How does one clean up Portal Archive files.
    The oraarch folder has Archive files that takes up a lot space. Its almost 50% and I am sure we can clean it up.
    How do we clean up the archive going forward. . as it is begining to affect the portal itself.
    Are there scripts we can use or how exactly do we go about doing this.
    thanx,
    raj.

    Shanker,
    Sorry to have confused you . . But I was referring to the Oracle Archives for the Portal Database. My Bad, I should have been a little clearer in my request/question.
    So anyway, this Archive folder of the Portal Database keeps growing and It has reached a huge size where it is impacting the portal. How can one maintain these Database archives. Are there scripts we can use?
    Anybody have any idea about this?
    thanx,
