Hi Sunil,
Portal with MDM is a very hot area now as everything is moving to ESOA .
Before starting with the integration you need to do some prior installation setup on EP side
- Business packages which will contain MDM connector,Java API's etc needed to set up the connection between these two systems.
You can work on different scenarios using the EP MDM combination.
1)Basic Scenario: Accessing MDM repositories from Portal.
You can use std iviews provided and connect o MDM system by doing the basic req config on EP side like creating sytem aliases,system objects etc and access the MDM rep from EP .You can view the Master data ,create it,edit it,delete it etc all the MDM activities can then be carried out from EP side.
2) UWL:Running MDM workflow through Guided procedures.
You can create MDM Workflow and run these from Ep side through Guided procedures.This will give single point of acces to Master data.
The workflow jobs will be displayed in the UWl and by doing User Mapping workflow jobs can be handled by different user Roles.Control is passed from Ep workflow to MDM workflow through Java Api's
Hope this helps
Thanks & Regards

What is the mean of using Portal with Role Based security as entry point

Hi Experts we have requirement of integration of Portal and MDM
I am completely new to the MDM. So please give me some idea , what is the meanin for following points.
1) Using the Portal with Role Based security as entry point for capacity and Routing Maintaince(These two are some modules).
2) Additionally , Portal should have capability to enter in to the MDM for future master data maintence. Feeds of data will need to be come from SAP 4.6c
Please give me the clarity of what is the meanin of second point

Hi
It requires the entire land scape like EP server and MDM server both should be configured in SLD.
Your requirement is maintaing and updating the MDM data with Enterprise portal.We have some Business Packages to install in Portal inorder to access the functionality of MDM.
Portal gives you a secure role based functionality of MDM through Single sign on (login into the portal access any application) to their end users.

Using ABAP Web dynpro for connecting EP with MDM

Hi All,
We have an architecture landscape in which EP User interface (iviews) need to integrate with MDM import manager. Is it possible to achieve this using Web dynpro? If any company has implemented this kind of scenario before, please gave us the tips.
Thanks,
Anand

Hi Anand,
You can use MDM Java API in WD. ABAP API for MDM is is currently in process.
Just wondering what kind of business scenario do you have which allows portal users to use import manager`s functionality.

Connection between Portal and MDM

Hi all
Can anybody help me on how to establish the connection between portal and MDM with step by step procedure.
i am new to this combination .
before i worked with portal but not worked with MDM .
Regards
Suresh babu

Hello Suresh,
As of my knowledge MDM IViews have the advantage to ful fil your neeed to provide connectivity moreover,that they are not complex in structure and are therefore not restricted by any underlying schema structure. As opposed to regular iViews in other systems which are embedded into the pages on which they appear, MDM iViews are more generic and granular in nature enabling their placement on a page to be more adaptable.
The SAP Enterprise Portal (SAP EP) offers templates for creating the iViews. The following are some examples of these templates available at the link:
[http://help.sap.com/saphelp_mdm550/helpdata/en/45/c9f8cac2124ebee10000000a11466f/content.htm]
Procedure:
       1.      Create a new page using the page wizard.
       2.      To see the iViews you created on the new page, you need to link them to the page. Right-click each of the iViews that you created and from the context menu, select Add iView to Page → Delta Link
       3.      Double-click the new page you created and select:
Page Content to view a list of the iViews that have been linked to this page
Page Layout to view the layout currently assigned to this page. The iViews can be rearranged using the drag&drop function.
       4.      The visual structure of a page can be changed with the Page Layout function. Select Define Layout to reset the layout of the page.
       5.      Select Preview to view the page showing how the iViews have been arranged. The preview simulates what an end user sees at runtime.
Detailed pictorial presentation available at:
[http://help.sap.com/saphelp_mdm550/helpdata/en/45/c8e2fa5f0c2e97e10000000a155369/content.htm]

Multiple Portals with OAM

Hello All,
Is it possible to register multiple Portals to single OAM instance for authentication? If so is there a document available somewhere? I could only find OBE integrating single Portal with OAM.
Thanks in advance!

Yes, you can do that. You basically need to setup mod_osso agent in OAM.
Oracle Portal behaves exact in the same way as any mod_osso protected application. If you are able to protect a standard HTML file on the webserver's operating system, you will be able to protect your Portal as well.
Setup is not documented (yet).
Thanks,
EJ

No receiver could be determined while doing SAP ECC Integraion with MDM 7

Dear All,
Can you please help me to resolve the following issue.
We are doing SAP ECC Integration with MDM 7.1 by using MDM PI Adapter.
Source side we are processing MATMAS.MATMAS05 IDoc and Receiver side we are using MDM PI Adapter to Connect the MDM System.
I have checked the Configuration by using Test Configuration Wizard, it showing every thing fine there.
Is it because of any network connection issue at the Target system (MDM) side?

Hi,
From error looks like it is not failing at receiver determination step. if you all configurations are fine, then this could be because of system cache refresh.
Go to Edit mode in your scenario and again save it and activate it. Do a cache refresh and check if it works.

Anyone running Portal with NOARCHIVELOG mode in the Oracle DB?

Although we have several high-volume SQL Server customers running their DB in simple recovery mode (no transaction logging) with success, I am trying to determine if anyone is doing the equivalent with Oracle DB.
Even if you aren't using NOARCHIVELOG mode, please let me know your thoughts on performance, especially since the perception exists that the Portal is less performant on Oracle DB than on SQL Server. If that perception has any basis in reality, there should be an even greater potential for performance gain using Oracle DB, through intelligent tuning.
The cons of NOARCHIVELOG were pointed out to me by an excellent DBA:
1. Lose the ability to do hot online physically backup, (both RMAN and Manual)
2. Lose the ability to do point in time recovery of your database (irrelevant to the Portal)
3. When something bad happens to your DB, you are guaranteed to lose some data, because you can only recover to last good backup. (This is either acceptable to the business or not. Usually it is.)
Thanks for your thoughts!

There are no dumb questions. 'Better' or 'worse' can mean different things from different angles. I won't recommend something to a customer that I saw in an article somewhere, or gained knowledge via hearsay. I have to have tried it successfully with a customer, usually though iterative tuning, testing and monitoring cycles.
With that said, I see nothing wrong with using NOARCHIVELOG mode for the portal, and am looking to find someone with experience using it with the portal; and I don't mean a portal with four communities and a scant thousand users. I am looking for something more on the scale of our mutual customer who had about 15 front end portal servers, and about 15,000 hits per hour. Who, incidentally, is happily using SQL Server in simple recovery mode, and was game to try it out in the first place.

Guest Portal with EUP Page Only

I have a use case to provide a guest portal with EUP page only. ie. user only needs to accept the agreement and they should be given internet access, without need to enter username/password or self service. Is there an easy way to achieve this on ISE 1.2?
Thanks in advance.

Hi Mark,
Yes Guest Cert will need to be external. Because Guest Users if they have a non-corporate laptop for example will not have your Internal Company Certs installed in their browser (that you loaded onto ISE), so they cannot trust your internal Cert.
If your open Firefox or IE under Options/Security View Certificates you will see a list, if its a Guest you will see well known public Certs like Geotrust, Verisign etc.
For my setup I brought a GeoTrust cert and loaded this into ISE, this way Guests will always Trust the Geostrust ISE cert like https://guest.com for example and the login will appear and be trusted.

Integration of portal with ADS

Does anybody knows how to integrate the oracle portal with Microsoft -ADS
to make single sign on , meaning as soon as the user logs on to the machine
the same authentication should carry forward to oracle portal authentication.
