Hi Govind Turka,
have a look at this thread
[WD4A: pass portal logged in userID to WebDynpro ABAP IView.|WD4A: pass portal logged in userID to WebDynpro ABAP IView.]
or you can create a FM in ABAP and get the SY-UNAME and in the application wherever you want you can call that method and get the SY-UNAME.
Hope this helps.

Userid of a Portal-user in Web Dynpro ABAP

Dear colleagues,
we want to migrate our application from BSP to Web Dynpro ABAP and I'm looking for a procedure how I can get the userid of a Portal-user in Web Dynpro ABAP which is running inside an iView ?
In BSP I used iView application parameter user_id and in the BSP the event handler for data retrieval with:
userid = runtime->server->request->get_form_field( 'userid' ).
Found a lot of entries how to do it in Java but no one for WDA ?
Thanks in advance
Michael

Hi Michael,
Actualy it is not so trivial. You have some options:
1) In case user_id is parameter of iView you can read URL parameter like described here Webdynpro ABAP url-parameters
2) In case user_id is not iView parameter you can use usuall ABAP sy-uname system variable.
But pay attantion that it is not really EP user. Here we have 2 options: user mapping and SSO. In case of user mapping sy-uname will contain R/3 user which is mapped to EP user. In case of SSO sy-uname will contain same user name like in EP, because by using SSO user must ne the same on issuing and accepting systems.

How to get Portal user from a standalone Java application

Hi,
I have a standalone Java application from where I need to fetch the Portal User Information like userid and email id.
I am using the below line of code
iUser = UMFactory.getUserFactory().getUserByLogonID("e017939");
I have included the jar file com.sap.security.api , But it was giving me the below exception
java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: com/sap/tc/logging/Location
 at com.sap.security.api.UMFactory.<clinit>(UMFactory.java:55)
 at com.am.wcas.java.mailscheduler.kmaccess.FetchDataFromKM.getiUser(FetchDataFromKM.java:29)
 at com.am.ScheduleEmails.main(ScheduleEmails.java:89)
and I am getting a pop Up message from the Java Virtual Machine Launcher, saying a Fatal Exception has occured and the Program will exit.
Then I went throught he SDN threads and they asked me to include the
logging.jar and com.sap.security.perm.api .
I Included them, then also, it is giving me Exception
java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: com/sap/engine/lib/logging/LoggingHelper
 at com.sap.security.api.UMFactory.<clinit>(UMFactory.java:56)
 at com.am.FetchKMData.main(FetchKMData.java:30)
Exception in thread "main"
and I am getting a pop Up message from the Java Virtual Machine Launcher, saying a Fatal Exception has occured and the Program will exit.
Kindly let me know if it is possible to access the User info using UMFactory in a standalone Java application. If yes kindly let me know where i am going wrong.

Shilpa B.V

Hi Shilpa,
1. Check that you have added com.sap.security.api within the Your Project>Libraries folder (under navigation tab) and also added jars in the build path of the Your Project under project>properties>Build Path.
2. In case you have a DC instead of Web Dynpro Project then you have to add the com.sap.security.api under Your DC>Used DCs and have compile time and runtime dependency added.
Here java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError is caused basically due to only build time dependency added and reference to the jar missing at runtime. Rest the code to retrieve the current user id using UME API and getUserByLogOnID("....") method with/without portal environment would not be an issue at all.

Portal user ID read in abap webdynpro.

Hi All,
We have developed on web dynpro application for Dealer Portal. The Dealer logs into the portal with his ID. How can we capture this Portal User ID of the Dealer in our application.
The Portal User ID and the R/3 User ID are different.
I have followed the given steps...
Step 1
Within the Main Window of your ABAP Web Dynpro application, select Inbound Plugs tab. Now double click on the Startup Plug Named 'DEFAULT' (or what ever you have called it if you have changed this since window was created).
Step 2
Within the plug method HANDLEDEFAULT Add a new importing parameter below 'WDEVENT' parameter call it IV_USER of Type UNAME.
Step 3
Now within the code section of the plug method HANDLEDEFAULT you can freely assign the value of IV_User to an attribute of your component controller. i.e. wd_comp_controller->userid = IV_USER. Alternatively you could assign it to a wdp context node / attribute.
Please note this value will not be available with the WDDOINIT of your main view as WDDOINIT method of this view is called before the window HANDLEDEFAULT method. Put your code into the method WDDOMODIFYVIEW of your main view instead.
Step 4
Double click on the webdynpro Application, within the Parameters tab add a new parameter. You should just be able to use the F4 help on the param column and select the IV_USER entry.
Step 5
Save your application nad activate your web dynpro
With the 'Content Administration' tab of your portal
Step 1
Create an iview of type ABAP Web dynpro specifying the application name as that of your created wdp (must be exactly the same).
Key information for creating iView:
Create as iView template (select template as SAP Web Dynpro iView)
namespace = sap (check service name in SICF if this is not correct)
Application Name = ZWDA_EXAMPLE(name of your wdp created in se80)
Application Parameters = IV_USER=
Step 2
Save and setup any other details required when creating any other iView
but not able toget user id .

Hi,
Why don't you use the sy-uname to get the login details of user.
Portal users are mapped to R/3 system, so using sy-uname will definitely give the user details.
Function module to get employee details by passsing user name
CALL FUNCTION 'HR_GET_EMPLOYEES_FROM_USER'
    EXPORTING
      user               = sy-uname
      iv_with_authority = space
    TABLES
      ee_tab            = lt_ee_tab.
IF lt_ee_tab[] IS NOT INITIAL.
Passing employee number to export parameter
    READ TABLE lt_ee_tab INTO ls_ee_tab WITH KEY user = sy-uname.
    IF sy-subrc = 0.
      ev_pernr = ls_ee_tab-pernr.
    ELSE.
      ev_failed = gc_failed.
    ENDIF.
ELSE.
    ev_failed = gc_failed.
ENDIF.
Does this help?
Thanks,
Rahul

Retrieve portal user

Hi,
can somebody help me. I want at starting of a WD application. That it retreives the portal user as in input of the bapi. Is there a tutorial or can somebody explain me what code i need to use or ahat i need to do
Regards

Hi,
Let's say that you are doing the username retrieval part in the custom controller. So create a value attribute say, UserName in the custom controller's context. Also create a value attribute of the same name in the view controller's context under the value node that is boind to the datasource property of the table and map the custom controller attribute to the view controller's attribute. The view context might look like:
-Root
--TableDataNode
---UserName
---... (other nodes)
Once you have fetched the user name in the custom controller, use a code like:
wdContext.currentContextElement().setUserName(userNameStr);
Now in your view, create a table column to show the user name. Insert a textview as the cell editor and bind the
text property to, TableData.UserName.

Satyajit.

How to get Portal User Context in Web Dynpro application

I have successfully integrate a web dynpro app into SAP Netweaver Portal.
Within my web dynpro app, how can I get portal user context information such as first name, last name, job title or some newly created ume attibutes.
Is there any programmatical approach to get portal user context in my web dynpro. I not sure whether I can use the following codes in web dynpro?
IUserContext userContext = request.getUser();
String firstName = userContext.getFirstName();
String lastName = userContext.getLastName();
If yes, can someone point me the name of the jar file I have to import.
Note : The SAP Netweaver installation that runs my web dynpro app is same with the SAP Portal.

Hi ,
you can use the below code to get User details and add com.sap.security_2.0.0 > lib > com.sap.security.api.jar
try
IWDClientUser clientUser = WDClientUser.getCurrentUser();
String firstName = clientUser.getFirstName();
String lastname = clientUser.getLastName();
catch (WDUMException e) {
wdComponentAPI.getMessageManager().reportException("Error Retrieving User"+e.toString(),true);

Calling Portal iView from a WebdynPro ABAP application

Hi ,
I have a requirement where I need to call an iView in my portal from the Webdynpro application also existing in the portal.
Can anyone provide me the method with source code( if possible ) to call an iView existing in the portal from the WebDynPro ABAP application.
Best Regards
Sid

Hi Siddharth,
Well, I think you can go for Portal Navigation concept.
Please check the required source code in WDR_TEST_PORTAL_NAV Web Dynpro component. That will illustrate both Page based Navigation and Object based Navigation.
Hope that should solve your problem.

Adjusting portal theme of Web Dynpro ABAP application

Hi,
can the style of all UI elements in our Web Dynpro ABAP application changed in the style sheet editor of the portal?
Or shall we avoid some already in the application?
And can we also use the Eclipse Portal Editor to change the theme for our ABAP application in the portal?
Thanks, Regards
Susanne

Most all UI elements can be changed by the Theme Editor. Not all aspects of each UI element is customizable. You will need to look through the theme editor to see what all it supports.
You can use the Eclipse Portal Editor (unsupported by SAP) to change the them of WDA applications.

Routing a Portal user to a designated ABAP instance

Hi experts,
my concern is about performance testing in a portal landscape which is connected to several ABAP systems and a Producer Portal.
Because functional and performance testing will temporarily overlap, we consider to route our Mercury test users to a designated ABAP/Producer Portal instance in order to separate the load from funtional testing.
My question:
How can I ensure that the mercury test users get linked to the second ABAP instance/Producer Portal instance?
First ideas:
- Does it help to assign the test users to a specific user group which could be evaluated during SSO?
- Use of ABAP Logon groups without changing the System Object in the Portal;
- Taking advantage of the Load Balancer configuration.
Many thanks in advance and best regards,
Martin

The nice thing about loadrunner and other such products is also a headache... and that is handling the headers correctly. In the HTTP header you can set the load balance and session cookies to force the session to a particular place via a web dispatcher.
You need also to be aware RFC's from the Portal to the ABAP and these should use a logon group that you can force to the instance you desire.
It is also possible if going via a web dispatcher to hard code the web dispatcher to only have a single system.
In essence there are a few ways
