Reconfigure default portal group

By default portal group name is constructed with cn=portal.$timestamp. I'm trying to re-configure it so it will simply use cn=portal,cn=xxx....
Anyone has the procedures on how to do it ?
I have updated OID/SSO tab in portal, created a new entry in orclapplicationcommonname=,cn=Portal,cn=Products,cn=OracleContext and a new entry in portal group container (cn=Groups, dc=...). However it still appears that OID is looking up the default group.

Hernando,
We are actually doing an parallel build and would like to migrate the OID entries from 9026 to 1012 repository. In previous version we only have dn=portal and we would like to keep it the same.
It is not an important task but just wondering if anyone has done it.

Bea Portal Group and Group selection / um:getPorperty

Hi,
I would like to know if it is possible to set the default group
in which <um:getProperty> looks into when the user does not have
the requested property set into his profile.
I noticed that by default it looks into the current group portal.
However I would like to make it look into a specific sub group
of the group portal.
In the same way there are checks to dertermine if a user belongs to
several portal groups, I would like to extend these checks and include
sub groups in the tests and selection.
I saw that the webflow uses GroupFormProcessor and GroupProcessor but
couldn't find the source code to see what needs to be initialized for
<um:getProperty> to work correclty.
I saw the successor attribute in <um:getProfile>, but I would like to
know if there's a way to avoid specifying it each time... by setting a
value in the session for instance ?
Thanks for your help,
Best Regards,
Thierry

Hello Thierry,
You probably want to set the explicit successor in the session. A
successor is a group from which a user inherits properties. An explicit
successor is one that is specified in the getProperty() call underlying the
<um:getProperty> tag. Just for your information, this is as opposed to an
implicit successor, which is persisted for the user and is associated with a
property set. You can use the methods of ProfileWrapper to persist an
implicit successor for a user for a specific property set.
The portal framework sets the ProfileWrapper in the session using the
com.bea.p13n.usermgmt.SessionHelper.putProfileInSession() method. It sets
the explict successor for this profile to be equal to the group that was
selected by the user to apply for this portal session when they logged on
(if they are only a member of 1 group, then they were not prompted for which
group...the group was simpley set as the explicit successor). The call to
SessionHelper.putProfileInSession() is done in the PostLoginProcessor in the
portal security webflow (see the webflow in your EBCC).
You can override this by using SessionHelper.putProfileInSession()
yourself or by putting <um:getProfile> into your portal.jsp page.
<um:getProfile> does the same thing (uses
SessionHelper.putProfileInSession() to put the ProfileWrapper into the
session).
If I were you, I'd put <um:getProfile> with session scope at the top of
portal.jsp and use the group that you are interested in as the explicit
successor.
See the <um:getProfile> docs at
http://edocs.bea.com/wlp/docs70/jsp/p13njsp.htm#1001358

How do I create portal groups dynamically?

Has anyone written code to use the
WWSEC_APP_GROUP_MGR.CREATE_GROUP procedure to create portal
groups programmatically? I understand alot of what I'm supposed
to pass, but some of these parameters are pretty obscure and
obfuscated.
I'm not sure this can be called like a normal (non-htp) stored
procedure at all. I now understand nearly all of the
parameters. Looking at the page source behind the Create Groups
page, I see that many of these parameters are involved in the
page generation itself, for example p_back_url being a variable
that is probably attached to the action of "Previous" buttons
that appear as you go through the process of creating a group.
Here is my call:
wwsec_app_group_mgr.create_group(p_groupname => 'X',
p_description => 'TEST GROUP',
p_db_role => 'DBA',
p_hide_group => 'N',
p_styleid => 6,
p_group_id => y,
p_siteid => 0,
p_site_id => 1);
where "y" is the nextval of the group sequence.
Inserting SQLERRM into a table, I end up with this:
ORA-06502: PL/SQL: numeric or value error
ORA-06512: at "SYS.OWA_UTIL", line 323
ORA-06512: at "SYS.HTP", line 860
ORA-06512: at "SYS.HTP", line 975
ORA-06512: at "SYS.HTP", line 993
ORA-06512: at "PORTAL30.WWUTL_HTP", line 25
ORA-06512: at "PORTAL30.WWERR_API_ERROR_UI", line 182
ORA-06512: at "PORTAL30.WWSEC_APP_GROUP_MGR", line 2891
ORA-06510: PL/SQL: unhandled user-defined exception
ORA-06512: at "PORTAL30.WWSEC_APP_GROUP_MGR", line 255
ORA-01403: no data found
I know that this procedure is responsible for generating the
subsequent pages in the "create group" wizard. There's just no
possible way to figure out how to use this procedure
dynamically. I repeat we WILL NOT BE TYPING IN OVER 3500 GROUPS
and 7000 USERS USING THE WIZARD. There must be a way.
I don't want to just arbitrarily insert groups into tables
behind the scenes without knowing what I'm doing. If this is as
simple as inserting a row into wwsec_group$, wwsec_member$,
etc., then great, but there's no way of knowing.
Maybe an Oracle person can help me. Is there another API I can
use, or is there a way to use this API as a stored procedure
where I can just loop through a driving table to create a bunch
of users and groups?
I appreciate any help. I need to create over 3000 groups based
on my client's organization. We REFUSE to do this by hand using
portal's interface. Not that it's bad, it is just impractical
in this instance.

Default Purchasing Group in Purchase Order from user parameters of an user

Hi Team,
I have an issue in defaulting the Purchasing Group in PO.
The Purchase Order is capturing the Purchasing Group of the Contract when the PO is created with reference to a Purchase Requisition which in turn is created with reference to a contract.
The Customer says he has default Purchasing Group in his user profile - parameter tab which would always overwrite any other Purchasing Group. But now, he is getting the Purchasing Group of the contract in the Purchase Order.
Team,
Request you to post your comments/ suggestions for this.

Dear,
System is behaving in the correct manner..
If at all P GRP is maintained in contract....It will be defaulted in the PO.
If there is no P grp data in the ref doc, then system will check the default parameters maintained in the User profiles.

Programmatically adding/deleting users to/from portal groups

I am using the following PDK api, to delete an user from a portal group (otp_sales).
I get the following error which doestn make sense. I tested the following api from a

because it sees a ROLLBACK getting used in the API.

Thanks

-Ananth

We had the same problem and it turned out that deleting a portal user(delete_portal_user), removing a portal user from a list (delete_user_from_list) or updating a portal user, the "savepoint xxxx never established message" came up when there was no context set. If the procedure is called from within a portal page (or as user portal30) ,and the context is set and it works. The solution is to check to see if the context was set, and then set it if not.
if not portal30.wwctx_api_private.is_context_set then
portal30.wwctx_api_private.set_context(p_user_name => 'portal30');
end if;
Hope this helps

How to add a default user group for multiple document type's?

Hi,
I am trying to add same default user group for different document types when MA is created. Is there any way to setup using a single "Document Security Template"? Or I need to create different templates for different document types?
Please confirm.
Thanks,
Saloni

Hi Saloni,
Based on what your specific requirement, it might be easier to do it with scripting.
If you are doing it using Document Security Templates, you would have to create a Document Security Template for each of the 6 MA types and assign the default group. Create another one and leave the Document Type field blank, so it will apply to the other 4 MA types that don't have a default group.

Vikram

Unable to delete Portal Group

Hi Portal Knowledgeable ones.
I get an exception when I attempt to delete a portal group.
My first question is where do I look to find more information about the exception that was returned (eg; a log file)? I can't click on it to see more details.
My guess is that I am getting this exception because of some existing "reference" to this group inside the portal. No users are assigned to it. No roles or other groups are contained in it. However, I'm not sure if there is a folder permission tied to that group.
Is there some way to see where "customized folder permissions" exist? Otherwise, I'm stuck with looking at the permissions of every Portal object individually.
Thanks
Kevin

Hi Kevin,
Ques 1) My first question is where do I look to find more information about the exception that was returned (eg; a log file)? I can't click on it to see more details.
Ans: Yes you can view the log file through log viewer.
Please find the Visual Administrator in you installation directory. Visit:
usr\sap\P66\JC00\j2ee\admin\go.bat.
run this batch file and in the services see the log viewer. There you can view log information.
or if you want to view the trace file directly then visit the path:
usr\sap\P66\JC00\j2ee\cluster\server0\log
there you will see the .trc file. Open the file and see the logs.
Ques 2) Is there some way to see where "customized folder permissions" exist?
Ans: For this you can write a code to check the permission of the portal object. There are various API's provided by SAP to check the properties and permissions of the Portal objects.
I hope this will help you.

Praevsh

Default VAT Group display 'funny' characters at List of Accounts

Hi,
Using SAP Business One 8.82 (8.82.079) PL: 14
l would like to display "Default VAT Group' in the list of accounts, l have setup the form setting accordingly; however the list of accounts display characters different from the expected... look like encryption key...
Yes, the customer do have encryption setup for users, but i suppose it should not affect default VAT Group code view from list of accounts.
You may refer my print screens for more details.
Any idea?

Hi,
This is standard behavior if you choose encryption for users. Please refer SAP help file:
Define encryption for a user for the following confidential data in the system.

How to add new Portal Theme to Default Portal Desktop

I created a new Portal Theme and now I want to add it to the default portal desktop. Here are the steps I am following:
1. System Administration-> Portal Display -> Desktops and Display Rules
2. Open the default portal deskop under Portal Content->Portal Users->Standard Portal Users->Default Portal Desktop. Right-click and select Open->Object
3. My new Portal Theme does not appear in the list of available portal themes to choose for the default.
Please tell me what I have to do so that the portal theme I created appears in the list.
Thanks.

Hi,
You can check the actual users desktop by checking the Portal Display Rules:

Default User Group in SAP Query (SQ01)?

Hi,
Is there a configuration or parameter to set so that when starting SU01 it will open a certain User Group by default, e.g. Z1234? Clicking the button "Other User Group" is tedious for end users.
Thanks, will assign points.

Unfortunately those steps take you to SQ03, "User Group: Initial Screen". There is no option in SQ03 to set a default User Group, either.
Any other ideas?
I tried searching for parameters in SU01, but there isn't a suitable parameter.
Advice welcome

Default excise group and series group issue

Hi Gurus
I have a doubt. Is it possible to maintain the default excise group and series group in this order
sales org     dis chnl    division    ship pt    plant    excise group    series group
1000               EX         CD             1000     1000       10                       A1
1000               EX         CD             1000     2000       20                       A2
i tried this combination, but getting the error message that a key already exists....The header data sales area and shipping point already exists.... I cant understand why we cant give the same sales area and shipping point for a new plant combination
Thanks in advance
Mathan

Hi Mathan,
When we say Excise group then it is maintained for the plant as it is maintained with Excise authorities. We can have same shipping point for 2 different plants but the possibilities are less and when 2 plants share the resources and facilities then those plants are registered as a single excise entity with the authorities. That is the reason that the option of having the same sales area and shipping point as header data is not allowed for more than one excise group. This is more business related than SAP.
Hope this clarifies the doubt.

Antima

What id the DIT of the portal groups in OID? - never mind. found it

Does anyone know the DIT of the portal groups in OID? I cannot seem to find it It does not appear to be under cn=Oraclcontext,cn=groups

Keith,
Welcome to the forums.
Are you saying that the procedures require you to check out
all the application or site code in addition to your RH source
because RH may change some of that external code? To my knowledge,
RH source is not connected to anything else in a way that it will
make automatic changes to anything outside the project. I don't
know about an official list, but I have seen (by using the Tortoise
client for both CVS and SVN) that if you make edits to RH source
files, those files change of course, and then I believe the .cpd
file is about the only other thing that changes.
You could try downloading and installing Tortoise if it works
for the version control system you use. Tortoise shows graphically
within Windows Explorer which files have changed since the last
time you checked a directory into the repository. If you change
nothing besides your RH source, Tortoise would plainly show that RH
isn't touching the application or site's code.
Hope this helps,
Ben

Access Portal groups in webdynpro ABAP component

Hi Experts,
I have a requirement to access portal group in web dynpro ABAP application and based on whether user is assigned to particular group or not further processing for application will be done.
Are there any UME API or some other API's available to access portal groups in Webdynpro ABAP component?
Thanks in Advance..!!
Regards,
Shruti Shah

This might be a question better suited to the portal forum. The WDA Portal APIs do not have such functionality. You might be able to take the Java Portal APIs and wrap them in a web service so that they are callable from ABAP.

Moving custom default portal from 1.1 to 1.2

Is there a way to capture or backup the html & image files from a custom default portal in ISE 1.1 to be able to move it to a fresh install of ISE 1.2. Would it be in the backup somewhere?

Cisco ISE allows you to make global customizations that that affects the look, feel and behavior of the web pages users see in the Guest, Sponsor, and My Devices portals:
