Portal Role Issue

Hi,
I am using two roles in my application viz Manager and Employee. When I am logged into application with Manager role the application is working properly ie All the data and the tabs are getting displayed, but when I logged in as an Employee only Employee tab is getting diaplayed and the TLN and the data is missing. Can anybody suggest me what might be the problem.
Regards,
D.NagaSurendra.

Hi Sampath,
I checked all the iviews and permissions. When I click on the Employee tab then only the data and TLN is getting displayed. But when login as Manager all the TLN and data is getting displayed when the page is loaded only. No need to click on Manager tab. I want the same for Employee aswell.

Regarding Enterprise Portal Role issue

Hi,
The system administrator has assgined a role called "k-role" to a user. The K-role has some 3 pages inside it. When the user view the portal with his id, he can see the role called "K-role" and the pages. But when he clicks a page to access the documents with in it, it says "ACCESS DENIED". There is no restriction kept at the document level. Restriction is only at the role level.
What could the error be? How can i resolve this issue? How can the user access the document?
Regards,
Divya

Hi Divya,
the portal users assigned to super admin role (usually via group Administrators) do have full permissions on every document. You HAVE to add read permissions for group Everyone in order to make the documents accessible by every portal user.
1.      Open the Details dialog box for the item (for example, for the folder).
2.      Choose Settings ® Permissions.
3.      Enter one or more users, groups, or roles.
4.      Choose Add.
5.      Select one of the following permissions: Read, Write, Read/Write, Delete, Full Control
Best regards,

No Portal Roles assigned issue

Hi Experts ,
We had recently integrated CRM with portal , but some users inspite of having the portal roles assigned to their id were getting an Access Denied page (we had customized the "no portal roles assigned " error page ) . Knowing the dependency of portal on IE and browser settings , this issue is sometimes resolved by clearing cache , cookies , and changing a few browser settings etc on IE 6.0 . If this doesn't work then upgrading to IE 7.0 definetly helps . Since this is just a workaround , I would like to know if anyone has experienced such a thing before and has a solution for this . Your inputs will be highly appreciated .

Hi Mayank,
This is an error which happens when there is No roles assigned to the user. I am not sure how your systems are designed for User Management. Say for example in some cases LDAP is used to maintain Group to User Relationships and Portal Roles are connected to Groups therfore all users in the group is assigned to the Role. In some cases UME is used.
Having said that you can disable the cache for the browser. You have to compromise with the performance however, this will ensure that everytime the user logs in, the request will always go to the server.

Balu,
Well this issue has been discussed many a times in forums. You would have to point your data source to ABAP system.
Check this thread in [here|J2EE Failed to start , after changing UME datasource;.
Good Luck!

J2EE roles vs Portal roles vs ABAP roles

(I also posted this on portal implementation, but i hope i receive more reactions here )
Dear all,
I have a question about the information on the following link:
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw2004s/helpdata/en/4c/6c0f40763f1e07e10000000a1550b0/content.htm
It says the following:
"These functions are intended to assign users and their assigned portal roles a corresponding role in the SAP System. This corresponding role (authorization role) contains the authorizations needed to execute certain functions from the portal."
1. These "...certain functions..." they talk about, can someome give an example of these functions?
2. Is it possible for example to create a role in the portal that gives a user authorisation for starting transaction SE80 in the backend system? Without making the role in the backend first and uploading it to the portal.
3. It's also possible to upload ABAP roles to the portal. Is the main reason for this that users can see their SAP menu (or part of it) in the portal? Or does this have other advantages too?
4. I'm very confused about the relation between J2EE roles, portal roles and ABAP roles. Is it possible to manage the roles for a user in one place, without having to do certain actions in the portal AND the backend system?
From what I've read on help.sap.com, you always need to do certain actions in both places.
A possible approach is the following (from what i know): Creation of roles in the R/3 system, without assigning to users. From a webdynpro application, a user can then be created and roles can be assigned: portal roles (via some API) and R/3 roles (via BAPIs).
I hope someone can give a bit information on this issue. I've done alot of reading on help.sap.com, but it's still an abstract issue for me.
Kind regards,
Joren

Hi Jorem
Re: point 3. I don't build portal roles through this mechanism as I don't believe in replicating the SAP easy access menu inside the portal. If there are some specific functions (transactions) that I want to run inside the portal, then I might use this mechanism to build the iViews once. I would rather start an iView that runs transaction SMEN and let the user see their regular easy access menu.
Please note that the speed of executing transactions in the portal isn't a function of the portal, but the fact that you are using ITS, for example, to web enable the transaction...
Re: point 4. Groups are a UME concept. They have nothign to do with ABAP groups. They can be created directly in UME through user administration functions, or they can be created in the LDAP and then they are visible in the portal. If the UME points to an ABAP system, then the ABAP roles are autoamtcially visible as UME groups. Groups created in the UME need to have the members assigned through user admin functions of the Java engine. Groups stored in LDAP are maintained using LDAP admin tools. There are upload utilities that allow you to maintain LDAP users and groups through text files. Google LDIF for more details.
Roles on the portal need to be built in the portal contetn directory. As Michael mentioned, this can be automated by the use of the role upload function built into the portal.

Portal Roles added to the LDAP group is not showing up for users

Hello expert,
I have implemented SSO for Enterprise Portal and MS LDAP. It is working fine but when I assigned roles to the LDAP group instead of UME group, they are not taking effect when I refresh the browser. My service account that I set up in the keytab file is a read only account for the LDAP. Is there some permission issue that I have to do to be able to add Portal roles or groups to LDAP groups?

Hi,
By default the LDAP integration configuration file is readonly.
In this case, is not possible to modify data in LDAP.
You must to connect in read-write mode; and I think that, furthermore, you need to configure SSL between Portal and LDAP in order to use read-write mode.

How many portal roles are needed for multi-country ESS?

we are implementing ESS for multiple countries.
has anybody tried to use one portal role for all countries?
the new ESS business package comes with one ESS portal role that has content for all countries. I was wondering if we can use this role as-is (after making a copy of course) to present content for all countries, instead of creating one portal role for each country.
Regards,
Tiberiu

in Employee Self-Service > General Settings > Homepage for Self-Services > Resources> Define Resources
did you have to enter the PCD path to the country-specific iView?
In that path you associate any resource to a Portal Page. Just change the PCD Path for custom Pages only.
Only the services are "country-specific" (because they have assigned a MOLGA). Follow the path from my previous answer to add any country-specific app.
the standard installation does not have the PCD path populated, it has the name WebDynpro application component instead
This is common issue. Depending on how the installation/upgrade was performed, the resources table is populated or not. But if is not populated, the "URLof PCD Page" property is taken from client 000. In my last implementation, i expected this issue, but i not populate manually this property and everything works fine.
Kind regards

How to fetch Portal Roles ??

Hi,
I am using UME Api for handling users. But i am uable to fetch the Portal roles. Using ume apis we can fetch ume roles but not portal roles.
I am able to manage the users using the same ume apis.
The current version EP 6.0 SPS02 is the what i am using at my end.
The program which i am running outside the EP, I am trying to fetch the portal roles on standalone java program (not a servlet but a simple java program using ume apis) and i am unable to fetch any roles.
if someone have faced the similar program then pls let me know how i can fix it this issue since it is little urgent and i have been stuck with this problem for quite sometime. If you can give a sample code that would be great.

HI,

Portal role folder translation

Hi all,
I'm translating the portal content created in different languages with the worklist functionality (EP 6.0 sp2). All portal objects like iViews, pages, worksets and roles can be translated but I've not found so far the possibility to add to the traslation worklist objects like the portal role folders (object type com.sapportals.portal.rolefolder). The portal role folders are used to structure in trees the content in the detailed navigation.
Can you please tell me how these can be translated?
Thanks,
Silvia .

Hi Silvia,
you don't have to use the RAW TEXTS for role folders. You can however translate role folder titles and descriptions in any available language. BUT you first have to translate them from source language: Raw Texts to target language (e.g.): English
Then you can translate them from English to any other language you desire.
The issue described in note 778884 is the following: When you create a role with master language "English" and you want to translate that role into other languages (e.g. Frensh, Spanish, etc.) and you choose English as source language in the translation tool, you won't see the texts for the role folders!
As, due to a bug, texts for role folders are initially saved only as Raw Texts, they don't appear in English (master language).
You first have to translate them from "Raw" to "English" and then everything is fine.
Hope I could shed some light on this.

SRM Portal roles are not getting accessible

Hello SDN contributors,
I have a strange burning issue. Please help me out.
Issue:
When I assign any SRM Portal roles to users,roles are not getting accessible until I assign a custom ESS(HCM) role in the backend ECC system which is mapped with a portal ESS role.
After doing this only from Portal front-end perspective ,SRM users are getting access on SRM roles.
But I do not able to find out the possible reason behind this.
Please suggest me to get out of this issue.
Regards,
Sriram

Hello Bala,
First of all thank you for your response.
Yes , I'm sure that the back-end role is mapped to only ess role not to SRM roles.
Unable to find out the origin for this issue. Please throw some valuable suggestions on this.

Portal Roles are not visible

Hi,
We have upgraged Portal (Nw 2004s) SP17 to SP18 ,But after upgradation portal roles are not visible for users and Portal adminstors (J2EE_ADMIN ) also.
Standard roles like System ,user and Content Admin roles also not visible.It shows only blank screen after login to portal.
It is critial issue .Please suggest how to solve this issue.
Thanks
Srikanth M

Make sure there are no errors in the browser in the bottom left hand corner. Also, are you using a fully wualified name to access the portal? When you were on SP17 were you using standard roles or did you make your own copy of the roles and assign your users to the copied roles?
If you navigate to the portal content studio directly, can you see the role contents?
After launching /useradmin and authenticating, paste http://host:50000/irj/servlet/prt/portal/prtmode/preview/prtroot/pcd!3aportal_content!2fadministrator!2fcontent_admin!2fcontent_admin_role!2fcom.sap.portal.content_admin_ws!2fcom.sap.portal.portal_content?sap-config-mode=true into your browser and you are in the content studio.

Changing Portal Role after the status change of user status at the CRM end.

Hi,
I have Portal with Java database as the default and CRM is connected to it using SSO.The database in both the case in separate.The users that are created in Portal will have a BP status in CRM sytsem.
Now my requirement is that if the status of the BP gets changed at the backend simultaneoulsy its Portal role should also gets changed.How shall i facilitate this procedure of changing the Portal Role?
Is there any RFC ,BAPi or Webservices required for this?
Regards,
Amarys
Edited by: amarys on Sep 13, 2011 11:20 AM

Hello,
Since the status has no number it will appear under statuses W/O number bottom right in status overview window.
These status will appear as additional text beside current user status. For example if user staus is BUG and status without number is DFL and sets when deletion flag is set and gets deleted when it is revoked than user status will appear as
BUG DFL -
Deletion flag set.
BUG -
When deletion flag revoked.
You have to live with it. I don't think there is a way out for that.
Thanks

Is there a way to automatically map CRM Roles to Portal Roles

<b>Scenario:</b>
When a new user registers on our portal he is assigned a CRM Role, however, he still needs to be assigned a Portal Role. Since we will have many users registering through our portal we do not want to assign roles to users manually. We want this to be an automated process, which requires almost no administration after the initial configuration.
<b>Solution we are looking for:</b>
Ideally we would like to do some configuration on the Portal side that would some how pull roles from CRM user store and map them on to appropriate Portal roles. In our case the reverse would also be ok as well, i.e. we do some configuration on the CRM side that would push the appropriate role to the Portal and do the Portal Role assignment.
Does anyone know how to do this? I am very new to portals so a detailed explanation would be very helpful.
Thanks for all the help!
Muhammad Osman Yousuf

No, the portal role will not be the same for the same CRM Role.
So for example...
On the CRM side we have CRM_ROLE_A, CRM_ROLE_B, and CRM_ROLE_C and on the Portal sider we have PORTAL_ROLE_A and PORTAL_ROLE_B.
All mappings given are possible...
CRM_ROLE_A = PORTAL_ROLE_A
CRM_ROLE_B = PORTAL_ROLE_A and PORTAL_ROLE_B
CRM_ROLE_C = PORTAL_ROLE_B
The solution you mentioned, will it work with the above mappings?
Thanks for all the help!
