Role for Personalizaton of Portal

Hi Experts,
When a user logs into the portal , he can see a option link called personalize .
If there is a requirement which prevents the end user from personalizing the portal , then which roles i should remove from the respective user . So that the personalize link won't appear at all .
Thanks a lot .

Hi Jain,
Log in with Content Admin rights.
Go to Content Admin->Portal Content->Content Provided by SAP->End User Content->Standard Portal users-> Default framework
Then open the mast head properties and set the property "Show link in mast head: personalize" to NO
and your issue is taken care of.
Reward points for handy posts!
Cheers,

Portal Run time error when created a seperate role for Transport package.

Hi Experts,
I have created a seperate role for Transport Package(import/export iviews).
Normally we have transport package functionality in system admin.
Below steps i followed for creating the new role(trans admin)
1.Copied SAP provided system admin role to a seperate folder.
2.Deleted reamining portal objects(like UWL, portal display etc ..) except transport packege workset.
3.Renamed the role to trans admin.
I have assigned that role to my self, it is working fine to me when i clcik on export and import.I have super admin role.
when i assign this role to some portal users, Export is not working.
when user clicks on Export role they are getting below error.
Portal Runtime Error
An exception occurred while processing a request for :
iView : N/A
Component Name : N/A
Access denied (Object(s): com.sap.portal.system/security/sap.com/NetWeaver.Portal/medium_safety/com.sap.portal.appdesigner.contentcatalog/components/Framework).
Exception id: 12:10_31/08/09_0031_21763550
See the details for the exception ID in the log file
By looking into exception iD also, same error access denied it is showing.
Please Advice.
Thanks
Sony.

Hi Raghu,
Thanks for the reply.
I have given full permissions to all users to this trans admin role before itself.
Thanks in advance.

Report or ways to find who removed portal roles for an user id ?

Hi Experts,
Scenario: if admin removes super admin role or any other portal role for my id. is there any possibility to see who exactly deleted the roles for my id?
Many Thanks
Sekhar

HI,
as Anja wrote, this is not possible with a default installation of the SAP Portal.
What you can do is to provide role provisioning with IIDM, GRC or ABAP user store solution instead of giving the portal admin the permission to change role <-> user attribution.

Allowing Airwatch MDM access to the Captive-Portal guest users in pre-auth role for android and BB?

Requirement:
How to allow Airwatch MDM access to the Captive-Portal guest users in pre-authentication role for Android and Blackberry devices?
What is Airwatch MDM?
Airwatch MDM is Mobile Device Management. The Airwatch is an enterprise which helps to manage and secure data traveling through the mobile devices like Laptops, Tablets, Android, iPhones, iPads etc.
Solution:
Why we need to allow access to Airwatch MDM?
The network administrator can force the guest users to register to Airwatch MDM before they get authenticated and access the internet. So that the network administrator could manage the guest devices through Airwatch Management tool. This can be achieved by CPPM server. To download the Airwatch MDM app and register with the Airwatch MDM server certain domains should be permitted in the captive portal pre-authentication role. This KB provides the configuration steps to allow the guest users to download the Airwatch MDM app and register with the Airwatch MDM server.
Configuration:
Below is the configuration
Configuration steps:
1. Create the following netdestinations
netdestination Airwatch
name *.awagent.com
name *.awmdm.com
name air-watch.com
netdestination Google-Play
name android.clients.google.com
name .ggpht.com
name gstatic.com
name accounts.google.com
name clients1.google.com
name clients2.google.com
name clients3.google.com
name clients4.google.com
name i.ytimg.com
name google-analytics.com
name .1e100.net
name android.l.google.com
name mtalk.google.com
name clients.l.google.com
name googleapis.com
name gvt1.com
netdestination BlackBerry
name *.blackberry.com
2. Now define the rules in the session acl and map it to the pre-authentication Role of the captive portal.
ip access-list session Airwatch_Access
any   alias Airwatch svc-http permit
any   alias Airwatch svc-https permit
ip access-list session Google-Play-Store
               any   alias Google-Play any permit
ip access-list session BlackBerry-Access
               any   alias BlackBerry any permit
3. Now map the session ACLs to captive-portal pre-authentication Role as follows
user-role Guest-Pre-Auth-Role
access-list session Airwatch_Access
access-list session Google-Play-Store
access-list session BlackBerry-Access
access-list session logon-control
access-list session captiveportal
4. Now whitelist the list of domain names in the Captive Portal profle
aaa authentication captive-portal Airwatch-Captive-Portal-Profile
white-list Airwatch
white-list Google-Play                                                                                ------------>Netdestinations where you defined the Domains.
white-list BlackBerry
Verification
Now the user will be placed under the "Guest-Pre-Auth-Role" before the authentication. The user can now go the Google Play-Store or BlackBerry Appworld to download the Airwatch MDM and register to Airwatch Management Server.

Thanks so much getting these names listed out. I have been working on this very issue for a few weeks and was basing my firewall rules on IP's. It was not going well. Now access is working and testing can commence!  Thanks,Chris

Short URL in the Form of Text Message like SDN for Enternal Facing Portal

Hi,
For the External Facing Portal, We are using the Light Frame work with Light Top Level Navigation and customized it for look and feel.
When we publish the Anonymous User role for the EFP, and navigate through the roles, The Portal URL is getting added with Short URL's (NavigationTaeget.....)
How to make this Short URL's in the form of Text Messages like example in SDN
After clicking the Forums the URL shown is like https://sdn.sap.com/irj/sdn/forums instead of Short URL.
We are looking for some thing same.
Regards

Hi Sumanth,
Short URL is automatically created by portal.
So you cant make the short URL in the form of text message.Refer the following link
<a href="https://weblogs.sdn.sap.com/pub/wlg/2452">https://weblogs.sdn.sap.com/pub/wlg/2452</a>

Automatic upload of roles from ECC to portal (UME with LDAP)

Hi experts,
This thread reopen the question asked on the following message : automatic upload of roles from BI to portal
However, it concerns this time "UME with LDAP".
Problematic :
SAP Library 04s tells us that is not yet possible to automate role replication (or role assigment replication) from ABAP Based back-end to Netweaver Portal. Only manual process for initial upload is possible.
Source = http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04s/helpdata/en/41/5e4d40ecf00272e10000000a155106/frameset.htm
Questions :
1 - Did anyone ever try to implement such an automatic tool ?
2 - What if I'm not able to write on the Active Directory ? I am still able, at least, to automate role assignment replication from ABAP Based back-end to Netweaver Portal (ie. UME with LDAP) ? Directly from SAP R/3 to EP through UME, without passing through Active Directory since the group field is not maintained in AD.
Many thanks for your inputs
Alexis MARTIN

Hello,
As I did not read the previous thread I don't know what exactly you are trying to achieve, but I can tell you about what we have done - as far as it is not too late yet.
We use the portal with integration to a BI system. In the ABAP stack we have lots of roles with menu items for hundreds of reports. We want the users to see these roles in the portal.
First we have used the role migration tool of the portal to upload these roles. There is a Java API for executing role uploads from code. You need to create a webservice in the java stack to call this api, and can call the webservice from ABAP.
However it is just a question of time and role size until this will not work at all. Standard role migration is more or less crap, stability is a problem. It also creates a lot of logs in the PCD and thus fills the database with trash. (After a few OSS messages there is now a program for deleting logs + you can turn of logging.) Also upload of larger roles takes up to an hour, and you alwasy have the problem that your portal roles are not up to date during the day.
When I got completely fed up, I have implemented an own navigation connector. When you log on to the portal it will connect to the ABAP stack via RFC, load the role, and generate the portal menu from it. It uses caching, but on every logon it checks whether the role has been updated in ABAP since the last time it was loaded. It is up to date, faster then PCD navigation, and you need absoluetely no periodical synching at all. I cant even understand why this is not offered by SAP per standard!
Drawback is that it will of course only work for the menu items, and only menu items with an "URL-type" are supported. I'm prettry sure however that it would be possible to implement a few other types as well.
Let me know if you are interested in the solution, I can give you a few additional details: oliverDOTsvisztATwienerbergerDOTcom

Role for Vendor Evaluation

Hi experts
i'd like to know what are the standard role for vendor evaluation and vendor qualify in SRM EBP 7.0.
Regards
Andrea

The vendor evaluation questionnaire is always triggred when a the user posts a confirmation RIGHT?
/SAPSRM/RECIPIENT -SAP SRM Server Role
com.sap.pct.srm.ro_goodsrecipient-Portal Role
Supplier Evaluation
You can use Supplier Evaluation in SAP Supplier Relationship Management (SAP SRM) to evaluate your suppliers by means of Web-based surveys. You can tailor individual surveys and questionnaires, and select the criteria to evaluate. You can then transfer the data that you gather from the questionnaires and surveys to SAP NetWeaver Business Intelligence (SAP BI). You can use this information to help you select suppliers and negotiate conditions.
For more information on reporting in SAP BI, see the SAP NetWeaver documentation on SAP Help Portal at http://help.sap.com SAP NetWeaver SAP NetWeaver <release> Library SAP Library SAP NetWeaver Library BI Content Supplier Relationship Management Supplier Evaluation .
Prerequisites
You need to compile questionnaires using the WebSurvey Cockpit. For more information, see the SAP NetWeaver documentation on SAP Help Portal at http://help.sap.com SAP NetWeaver SAP NetWeaver <release> Library SAP Library SAP NetWeaver Library SAP NetWeaver by Key Capability Application Platform by Key Capability Business Services Web Survey .
When you use the Supplier Survey Cockpit (see below), you can access the WebSurvey Cockpit from the SAP NetWeaver Portal. To compile a questionnaire, in this case, click on the Supplier Evaluation tab strip. Then click on Create Questionnaire.
Features
There are two different methods to collect data to evaluate supplier performance:
Event-driven evaluation. For example, when saving an invoice, a questionnaire is presented to the user
Ad-hoc evaluation through surveys managed with the Supplier Survey Cockpit
Event-Driven Evaluation
SAP Supplier Relationship Management (SAP SRM) supports event-driven questionnaires for two specific occasions:
Saving of a confirmation
Saving of an invoice
Note
The event-driven evaluation and the ad-hoc evaluation use separate InfoProviders in SAP NetWeaver BI. The InfoProvider that is used for event-driven evaluation is also used for evaluation triggered from out of the Advanced Supplier List.
End of the note.
These events trigger a questionnaire, which pops up on the screen or enable a button to open the questionnaire. To carry out event-driven evaluation, you first have to specify in Customizing when and under which circumstances you want the evaluation to take place. For example, you can define that the evaluation is to occur for certain product categories, or suppliers, or purchasing organizations. You can also define the frequency (for example, every invoice/confirmation, or every second invoice/confirmation, and so on). For more information, see Customizing: Integration with Other SAP Components Data Transfer to the SAP Business Information Warehouse Settings for Application-Specific DataSources (SRM) Define Events for Supplier Evaluation in SRM
Process
Supplier Evaluation is used in the Confirmation and Invoice applications to evaluate day-to-day activities on the basis of operational documents. It can also be used from the Approved Supplier List.
Supplier Evaluation Examples Application
Possible Questionnaire
Possible Criteria
Confirmation
Evaluation of goods
Delivery on time?
Condition of packaging?
Confirmation
Evaluation of services*
Was the service performed in a timely fashion?
Quality of service performed?
Invoice
Evaluation of invoice
Invoice quantity = confirmed quantity?
Was the invoice clearly presented?
Approved Supplier List
Evaluation of supplier
Reliability of supplier?
Price transparency of supplier?
Note
*Note the data protection regulations that apply when evaluating services.
End of the note.
For more information about SAP NetWeaver BI Reporting, see SAP Help Portal at http://help.sap.com SAP NetWeaver BI Content Supplier Relationship Management Supplier Evaluation
Ad-Hoc Evaluation: Supplier Survey Cockpit
The Supplier Survey Cockpit is an application with which you can manage surveys to gain information about your suppliers. After completion of a survey, the survey data is transferred to SAP NetWeaver Business Intelligence (SAP NetWeaver BI) for reporting. Analyzing the survey outcomes in SAP NetWeaver BI helps you to always be up on your suppliers' performance regarding, for example, reliability, quality, and service.
The Supplier Survey Cockpit enables you to gather information independently of a certain purchasing event. With the Supplier Survey Cockpit, you can do the following:
Set up a survey
Assign a questionnaire to the survey
Distribute the questionnaire via e-mail and
Monitor the responses
Features
To access the Supplier Survey Cockpit, choose Supplier Evaluation and then Survey Management under Detailed Navigation.
By default, you find three queries: A survey query, a survey package query, and a survey monitor query. Depending on the query you choose, the table below the queries displays different information.
To manage surveys, choose the survey query. Click on Create to create a new survey. Select a survey from the table and click on Display, Edit, or Delete to display, change, or delete a survey.
To manage survey packages, choose the survey package query and click on the corresponding buttons.
To download the table contents in MS Excel format, click on Export.
For more information on the queries, which serve to monitor surveys, see Survey Monitoring.

In the User Administration section of your portal find your newly created user and below select "Assigned Roles" tab then press <Modify> button and look through available roles on portal then just simply add and save. But if you want to do it programmatically see below:
IUserAcountFactory userFactory = UMFactory.getUserAccountFactory();
// IUser - read only but with IUserAccount is possible to set up user data
IUserAccountSearchFilter userFilter = userFactory.getUserAccountSearchFilter();
userFilter.setLogonUid("superuser", ISearchAttribute.LIKE_OPERATOR, false);
ISearchResult sr = userFactory.search(userFilter);
for (final Iterator i = new PrincipalIterator(sr); i.hasNext();) {
IUserAccount user = (IUserAccount) i.next();
Execute the same search for IRole (or IGroup if needed) get the unique id of them and use newRole(...) and addUserToRole(...) methods from IRoleFactory.
Of course you don't need search for this principals if you know uniqueness of them. Use appropriate factories to get'em all by this unique id.
All the features see in [javadocs|http://help.sap.com/javadocs/NW04S/current/se/index.html]

Buyer roles for monitoring SUS vendor changes

Hi,
We are looking for EP and SUS roles for below scenario
When supplier admin logs in to SUS via EP portal, he can modify his /
her company (as part of supplier self service) data such as name,
contact info etc. Then, buyer can monitor changes done by supplier,
then he can transfer the changes to ECC. We were looking for roles in
EP and SUS that will allow buyer to monitor the changes, we tried SRM
admin role, but it was not pulling vendors modified in SUS. I can
monitor changes done for Vendor by buyers in SRM via application
monitor. But, we are having difficulty in identifying a role to monitor
changes done by supplier in SUS.
Will you please suggest which EP (front end) and SUS (Backend) roles
need to be used? Appreciate your help!
Thanks,
Chandra

Barbara,
You can achieve this by building a custom program to add additional entries in VENMAP table for the same partner_GUID for the new backend system data.

Importing master role from ECC into portal throws derived role exception

Hello,
While uploading master and derived role from backend system into the portal I am getting the following exception.
com.sap.portal.pcd.rolemigration.RoleMigrationException: Nested Exception. Failure to execute native function. Nested Exception. ROLE_IS_DERIVED
Does it imply that the derived role is already imported with the import of master role and there is no need to explicitly import the derived role?
The landscape uses role upload tool of portal for UME.
Regards
Pooja

Hi Pooja,
There is a limitation with the role upload tool that the derived roles cannot be uploaded.
The migration is only able to upload roles which have their own menus. Derived R/3 roles does not have menus themselves as they derive them from other roles. The purpose of the migration is to bring the R/3 navigation structures into the portal. Therefore you can only migrate the role from which your role is derived.

Roles for XI Programmer

Hi all,
Next month I'll join to a XI Development project. Now I'm investigating the overall of SAP XI. I see it is an effective module which can help us integrate many system together.
But I see no place for an ABAP developer (programmer also) in this picture.
My question is:
"what are the roles for the ABAP developer in an XI Development project?"
can you send me some links about programing in SAP XI?
Thanks,

Reg FPN Role assignment in consumer portal

Hi Team
We are trying to implement FPN between two portals both are EP7 SP20
i followed the basic steps like
1 establishing the trust between portals
2 regestration of producer portal in consumer portal
I am able to see the roles created in producer portal in consumer portal with the help of User administration--Identity management tool
the probelm we are facing is when i assign the role in consumer portal to a user it is not getting assigned but it is getting assigned in the producer portal
pls let what i need to do inorder for the producer role to be assigned to consumer portal user
thanks in advance

Hi,
already saw this several times. Unfortuantely, it never was a FPN error. It always was human error:
Confused by the Consumer / Producer concept the Admin created the role assignment in the producer and not in the consumer.
Just check that you are really using the consumer.
If so, consider opening up an OSS message.

Hi,
Have you checked the gateway error log, transaction - /IWFND/ERROR_LOG as this should identify what is missing (under the menu option 'Error Log > Global Configuration you may want to change the error log level to 'Full' otherwise some detail is hidden).
Have you activated the TASKPROCESSING Odata service?
