Portals Development - roles & responsiblities

Hello - Wanted to ask the group how they define roles & responsibilities in regards to Portals development.
We have a team of people that manage the portal. In terms of importing Business Packages, Configuring the Portal, managing security groups & roles, controlling the TLN and SLN navigation, etc.
We also have a team that is responsible for traditional development. Java, ABAP, HTML, etc. These are our developers.
Within your Portal environment, where do you draw the lines of responsibilities? For example, for developing applications using the NW Developer Studio. Seems logical that a team of developers would handle this. But, how about for managing objects within the PCD, or creating simple iViews? Do you have Portal Admins perform that function, or your developers?
Thank you for your insights.

Hi

Portal Navigational Role assignment/development

Hi
How can I achieve this portal requirement.
I have a Portal Navigational Role with work sets (4) assigned to it (Workset1, Workset2, Workset3 & Workset4)
I have different kinds of users
User1:
When the Portal Navigational Role is assigned, Only Workset1 should be visible
User2:
When the Portal Navigational Role is assigned, Only Workset2 should be visible
User3:
When the Portal Navigational Role is assigned, Only Workset3 should be visible
User4:
When the Portal Navigational Role is assigned, Only Workset4 should be visible
User5:
When the Portal Navigational Role is assigned, Only Work set 1 & 2 should be visible
User6:
When the Portal Navigational Role is assigned, Only Workset3 & 4 should be visible
User7:
When the Portal Navigational Role is assigned, all work sets should be visible
How can I achieve this

You can use the concept of merging to avoid multiple display of the role names on the top.
You can use a merge id and set a priority according to which the same level navigation nodes will be merged.
Check SAP Help for more information:
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/53/89503ede925441e10000000a114084/frameset.htm
For your need, create:
Role1 for Workset1
Role2 for Workset2
Role3 for Workset3
Role4 for Workset4
(All Roles with same name if required).
And for all the worksets you can have a merge id with the same id.
So for example, when Roles 1 and 2 are assigned, you can see both the worksets under the same role name.
Thanks,
Shanti

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
Regards
Vijay

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.
Please go through this link
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_mdmgds55/helpdata/EN/45/c8cd92dc7f4ebbe10000000a11466f/frameset.htm
You need to develope some custom applications which should be integrated into the portal to access MDM Server master data
The estimation involves as per your requirement clearly
Its depends upon the Landscape settings, Requirement complexity,Identify how many number of custom applications need to be developed

Java Development Role problems!

I have tried to add the java development role to a users account. I have added the following roles:
SAP_JAVA_NWADMIN_CENTRAL
SAP_JAVA_NWADMIN_LOCAL
Apparently they are meant to get a new tab but it does not appear. Am I adding the right roles?

Hi Phil,
See this link for help
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/e2/75a74046033913e10000000a155106/frameset.htm
First, You have to create a logger.xml file in the Logger folder of your portal component
Then get a hold of that logger and write to it:
ILogger pLogger;
pLogger = PortalRuntime.getLogger("my_logger");
pLogger.info("testing");
Then, you can find this Logger in EP6 under : System Admin > monitoring > portal > Logging Console
Hope this helps

Can you please help me with this...

Hi Gary,
> Now do I put this back in original directory
Rrrighty.
> do I need to add back .bak or leave as .par?
Leave as PAR. If the server starts, all .par files within this directory get deployed and in the case of success, .bak gets added. So .par.bak files are not deployed again on the next startup.
> do I need to delete original
> then add my updated version?
I think you don't need to delete the original, but just do it. If your changed .par file get deployed successfully, it will overwrite the old .par.bak anyhow.
But make a security copy of the orginal file for the case that you have changed the original PAR in some strange way
Hope it helps

Where to find out the log file under java developer role

Hi,
I have some application created in NWDS. While running it after the PAR deployment and all. some exception is thrown. the exception iD is given. I was trying to find out wher the log files are located in the portal so that I can analyze the exception.
I think it is under the java developer role....but under that......I checked the log viewer tool and all.....but exactly where the log files would be located. so that with the exception ID , I can search and find out the log for the particular exception.
any ideas?
Thanks in advance.

Hi Steelman,
Use the search option in log viewer for this purpose. In the server it would be located in
usr/sap/sid/jc00/cluster/server0/logs
Hope this helps.

KT sessions for portal development

Hi,
What are KT sessions? Are they something like online learning courses? Where can I find KT sessions to learn about portal development?
Thanks in advance

Sailaja,
KT sessions is a very generic term.
KT sessions are generally referred to as a Knowledge Trasfer sessions.They might happen in a scenario were
1. Somebody who has worked on the latest technologies, might want to enable the rest of the team to learn about it via a KT session.
2. It might happen in an organization when you are leaving the current role or job so that the person replacing you has knowledge of what you have worked on and what is to be done.
I guess you are looking at learning sessions rather than KT sessions.
SAP has its own training sessions held.
http://www.sap.com/services/education/index.epx
Although I would suggest you to first have a look at this before you enroll for a course with SAP or a local instltute(in your city).

Developer role able to edit a shared report that he did not create

Hi,
It seems like user with "BI Publisher Developer" role is able to edit a report
in shared folder that he has access to.
Question: How can I create a user who can develop/create/edit his own reports,
and have view only access to some shared reports and
have edit access to some other shared reports?
i.e I want a scenario where there are 2 folders in Shared folder say FolderA and FolderB.
I want to create a user who is a developer such that he can create reports under My Folder
for his personal use and also be able to create/edit reports under Shared/FolderA,
but have only view-only access to Shared/FolderB
Thanks

Not able to create a new DC through NWDS with NWDI Developer role

Hi everyone,
My userid has NWDI Developer role assigned. I am trying to create a new Webdynpro DC under the software component defined in the configuration imported. It gives me an error after assigning the activity and pressing on Finish button.
I went through logs and found that it has some problems because I am not assigned the Lcr* role (this role should be in the NWDI Developer itself). I assigned the Lcr* role to my user id and tried to create the DC again. I am getting the same problem.
Please help.
Thanks,
Amber

Disable / Hide Portal PCD roles which we don't want to display in UME.

Hi Friends,
I have configured ESS/MSS setup in our Portal;
Step 1)
    a) We downloaded ESS/MSS business packages from SAP Market place
    b) Deployed into our Portal.
    c) I have checked in Portal Content Administration; ESS/MSS PCD objects i.e. Roles,Worksets,Pages and iViews were created inside the SAP Standard folder.
Step 2) As per my client recommendations u2013
   a) We donu2019t want to use PCD objects directly from SAP Standard folder and we will keep those PCD objects as backup. So,
   b) We created Client folder ex: xxABC inside Portal Content.
   c) I copied ESS/MSS PCD folder from SAP Standard Folder and Pasted inside folder xxABC; and then we customized Roles and worksets based on our requirements.
Step 3) Role assignment to Users
      When I search for ESS/MSS roles like u201CEmployee Self-Serviceu201D and u201CManage Self-Serviceu201D I am able to see each role twice u2013 one is from SAP Standard folder and another from client folder which I was copied.
So,
1) I donu2019t want to display ESS/MSS role which is inside of SAP Standard folder in UME(role search).
2) I donu2019t want to delete the role from this folder.
I got an Idea that is u2013 disable/hide Portal PCD roles which we don't want to display in UME while role search.
Please advise me, Is there any feature to disable/hide PCD roles in SAP Portal?
