Setting up Portal Navigation / Webflow

Hi,
it's the first time I work with Bea Portal,so I am a little disoriented.
Can you help me about Portal Navigation?
I'm not able to create a webflow that links an Html page to another one using
a button .(I'd just seen the official documentation).
Moreover, I don't know where the pages I created in my Portal are fisically saved
in the file system.
Thanks in advance,
Erika!

Hi,
As far as I know, the ability to set a WPC page as Home page for mobile devices is available only from SP9.
Best Regards,
Nadav.

Portal navigation missing in portal object (java)

hi,
first of all, i hope thats the right forum. i'm trying to write my first portal application/object, but my studio can't find the "com.sapportals.portal.navigation"-package and i cant import and use the navigation classes which i need.. is that a bug? do i need to add additional libraries? i've read and done the following tutorials (http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw70/helpdata/EN/44/489d45f5ee4e35e10000000a1553f6/frameset.htm)
hope to get some help asap.

Hi,
you have to import some libraries (in your case it is com.sap.portal.navigation.api_service_api.jar).
You can find it on the server installaton filesystem here:
\usr\sap\EXX\JC0XX\j2ee\cluster\server0\apps\sap.com\irj\servlet_jsp\irj\root\WEB-INF\portal\portalapps\com.sap.portal.navigation.api_service\lib\com.sap.portal.navigation.api_service_api.jar
If you cannot find some classes to import I use this technique: I go to filesystem of the portal to the \usr\sap\EXX\JC0XX\j2ee\cluster\server0\apps\sap.com\irj\servlet_jsp\irj\root\WEB-INF\portal\portalapps\ directory (using TotalCommander in my case) and let it search for desired class (in your case it is INavigationNode.class) - you have to set to search also archives (jar files are zipped classes). Now I copy this JAR to my local filesystem and add the library to the project.

Using Portal navigation for KM Integration in ABAP

Hi All,
I am trying to call the KM Navigation iview from ABAP webdynpro view. it is like implement the same functionality as currently available for Repository filters through ABAP coding. I have to create a new Folder in the KM and call the KM Navigation iview for that specific folder. I know KM has provided few new webservices which I can use to create a new folder in the KM repository but I am unable to open the KM navigation iview with the newly created folder through coding.
I am using the navigate_absolute Portal Navigation method to call the KM Navigation iview from ABAP code. Currently it is opening iview with the folder set as root folder in the iview property but I need to open it with the newly created folder through the code. The same sort of functionality is implemented from java code by passing the Business parameter with navigate_absolute method. The problem with ABAP code is that I don't know what is the exact format of the Business parameter to be passed.
In the java code the Business parameter is passed as
Uri=/documents/cprxrpm/46A73F1FEED21B0DE10000000A4241A8:DFM_450_MIT3_SAURABH/RIH/47B44774254208CCE10000000A4241A8:wonder-item-01 :WONDER-ITEM-01
Does anybody have idea how can i implement the same scenario in ABAP and what should be the format of the to be passed as Business Parameter from ABAP code ?
Regards,
Vikash

There isn't specific knowledge concerning the BusinessObjectsKM in this forum - you may try over at Business Object > Integration Kit SAP forum, or open a new Support Message with SAP.

How to use Portal Navigation to redirect to the URL

Hi ,
I have a requirement where i need to log off the user which will invalidate the session and redirect the user to the Portal Login Page.
The logoff.jsp is in a path like /web/logoff.jsp in the server.
As there is a Problem with exit plug, I should use Portal Navigation (WDPortalNavigation API) to redirect to the log off page.
Please let me know how to call the above JSP using WDPortalNavigation.
Thanks and Regards,
Sekar

Hi,
Thats a good idea. I have a Button Click Event, and on Action of it, I am doing a set of operation based on some condition and at the end of the operation i need to redirect to the logoff.jsp
The LinkToURL in place of Button is not allowed.The requirment is to have the button compulsory and i need to do those set of operation onclick of that button.
Still i can use LinkToURL as a hidden element and can call the logoff.jsp and the end of the above operations on click of that button. Is it possible to achive that...Please share your thoughts.
Appreciate your help.
Thanks and Regards,
Sekar

EP 6.0 User Export Parameter com.sapportals.portal.navigation:uipmode=2

When exporting users from EP 6.0 under "User Administration > Export/Import" , I have noticed that the following parameter is being generated in the text file :
com.sapportals.portal.navigation:uipmode=2
I've not been able to find any documentation to what this parameter actually is.
This only occurs on some users not all users.
Sometimes the value is =1 and =0.
This is a sample text file generated :
User]
uid=BLOGGJ
role=
group=MY_USER_GROUP1;Everyone;GUEST_USERS_COMPANY;Authenticated Users;
email_address=[email protected]
first_name=Joe
last_name=Blogg
country=GB
language=en
time_zone=Etc/GMT
department=DEMO USET
com.sapportals.portal.navigation:uipmode=2
end
Any help appreciated.

Hi there
The import works without problems.
However, we have Global Work Protect switched on so that it prompts for you to "save" data or "discard" it.
The "personalize" option to set "work protect" has been disabled so that users cannot set their own own Work Protect Feature.
It seems that users that were created with uipmode=2, have a personalized Work Protect which over writes the default global settings and does not prompt you to save data.
When I switched the "personalize" work protect feature back on, this did seem to be the case to check for those users.
I'm looking for some proper documentation to confirm my findings.
Any assistance appreciated.

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

XRPM -- Portal Navigation Config.

Hi Gurus,
I´m on a implementation project of xRPM and i need to configure the portal´s navigation of the solution, but this is kind of tricky. Can anyone have a documentation about the hierarchy that must be set in order to configure the proper portal navigation of xRPM?. I'll appreciate any info you guys could give me
Regards,
MC

Hi,
To check the user which is configured to log on to backed systems from you portal , look at my reply in the following link.
Debugging the webdynpro abap application from portal.
Check that user ID configured in portal using System Mapping Under 'Delegate User Administration' is the same user for which you are setting external breakpoint in backend system.
One thing more I would like to ask is - the application from which you are doing OBN ( Object Based navigation ) and therfore getting portal manager access, Is this application running inside portal ???
I doubt if you can get a portal manager reference for an application which is not running inside portal environment.
For more info on User Mapping follow this [link|http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/f8/3b514ca29011d5bdeb006094191908/frameset.htm]

How to restrice ananymous user access to portal link /irj/servlet/prt/portal/prtroot/com.sap.portal.navigation.portallauncher.default?

Hi experts,
We had an issue with portal access. I wonder if portal is venerable for security threats?
Could you please let me how to restrict the unauthorized users (anonymous user) to the portal URL.
https://HOST:50001//irj/servlet/prt/portal/prtroot/com.sap.portal.navigation.portallauncher.default .
Appreciate your help.

Hi Maruti,
Hope you are doing good.
Can't you just amend the portal permissions so that this access is not possible.
The PCD location should be:
com.sap.portal.system/security/sap.com/NetWeaver.Portal/no_safety/com.sap.portal.navigation.portallauncher....
Hope this helps.
Thank you and have a nice day!

Combinding Resources in the FIM Portal Navigation Bar

We have two different OUs for computers in our AD that have the same attributes. Server and Workstation, there is no attribute that indicates if the computer is a server or a workstation. My solution was to create two different MAs, AD Server MA and Workstation
MA and corresponding Metaversa objects and FIM schema objects. All good so far, I sync the appropriate computer objects from each ou into their corresponding FIM schema objects. I have created FIM Portal Navigation Bar Resources for each
that show the Servers and Workstations correctly. My question is this, I would like a Nav Bar resource - Computers - that combine both of these resources, and then under Computers have Servers and Workstations - is this possible?
Computers
Servers
Workstations
Thanks in advance

Hello,
thats quite easy to do.
Simple create a "Search Scope" that includes both Computer types.
Use this search scope as the Navigation Bar URL, the easiest way to get the URL (which contains the GUID of the Search Scope) is to add "Global" to the Search Scope Keyword, after that you can use the Search scope from the FrontPage of the Portal
for a search. In IE you should then see the URL for this Search scope an can use this in the NavBar Res.
The article ManuJ mentioned above will help you with that, here is the link:

Opening new window in xMII Portal navigation tree

I'm doing a 5-level deep drilldown where each drilldown needs a new window (browser page). I do it with JavaScript and window.open(strURL); and xMII 11.5.
This works well with "standalone" pages, but I would like to use xMII Portal navigation tree all through.
So, is there a way to open a page (with JavaScript) in xMII Portal Navigation tree so that user gets "jumped" to this location while staying in portal without a new window or popup window. Just like I would do with mouse (navigate tree, open page) but with code?.
I have found nothing relating to this in SDN or help files.

Hi, Matti.
If you specify a target attribute of "MainContentWindow", it should open up in the portal content area.

How to setup portal navigation

I am new to the portal and I am trying to setup the following portal navigation
Top Level - Reports
If user has been assigned the Sales Role, they should see under Detailed Navigation
Sales Reports
    Report1
    Report2
If user has been assigned the Purchasing Role, they should see under Detailed Navigation
Purchasing Reports
    Report3
    Report4
If a user has been assigned both the Purchasing and Sales Roles, they should see
Sales Reports
    Report1
    Report2
Purchasing Reports
    Report3
    Report4
I have tried using MERGE_ID but I get the Sales Reports and Purchasing Reports in the 2nd level navigation but I only want this folders to appear in Detailed Navigation. I just have not been able to figure out the correct MERGE_ID, Merge Priority and Entry Point configuration. Can someone please tell me what these values should be for the above setup? Thanks.
Ryan

Koti,
I still cannot get this to work
Reports1 (role) 1st level navigation   Entry Point = Yes
Reports2 (folder) 2nd level navigation    Entry Point = Yes   MERGE_ID = REPORTS2     Priority = 100
Sales_Reports (role)                             Entry Point = No       MERGE_ID = (blank)          Priority = 100
Sales Reports (folder)                         Entry Point = No      MERGE_ID = REPORTS2    Priority = 1
Purch_Reports (role)                             Entry Point = No      MERGE_ID = (blank)          Priotiy = 100
Purch Reports (folder)                        Entry Point = No       MERGE_ID = REPORTS2     Priority = 2
What am I doing wrong?
Thanks.

Unable to read Portlet Preferences set via Portal Admin

I have a portlet which should read the preference values set in the portal admin by an administrator.
I am running the portal as .portal and not in the streaming mode.
After setting the values in the portal administration I always click on propogate to all instances. But when I run the portal in workshop in debugger mode it is not reading the values as stored in Portal admin but it is showing the values which were stored while creating the portlet in workshop in portlet designer.
Please help how to make the portlet read the preference values stored via the portal admin console if the user visits the portal as an anonymous user. Any help is greatly appreciated on this subject. I have searched everywhere but have no solution.
I am using Weblogic Platform 8.1 sp5
Thanks
rj

The portlet preferences set in portal administration reflect only in streaming mode, since streaming mode uses the database that is used by portal administration. If you wish to see the portlet preferences set in portal adminstration, try running in streaming mode.
But when you run portal from workshop ( which would be file mode), it wouldn't pickup portlet preferences created via portal administration.
Note: The easiest way to distinguish a streaming mode from file mode is presence of 'appmanager' in URL.
eg: http://localhost:7001/sampleportal/appmanager/MyPortal/desktop1

WebDynpro ABAP and Portal Navigation problem

Hi all,
I've a problem with triggering Portal navigation from a custom WD4A application.
The request is to have an "Exit" button implemented and if pressed, the portal goes back to the top page:
--> Search
   --> Kind of Search
      --> WD4A -> Exit goes back to "Search"
I've tried using absolute_navigation/relative_navigation methods from interface if_wd_portal_integration, but they do not work at all.
It seems that the portal totally doesn't care about the request and remains still.
Methods are called passing the PCD of the "Search" page (i've tried even with the ROLES).
Anyone has an idea?
By the way, I was thinking about raising some kind of "standard" event like "navigate" or something...I don't know if it's applicable.
Thanks in advance,
R.

Hi,
If you are navigating from one WD Application to another you can either use URL or Object Based Navigation.
In URL Method you can call the target application from the source application.
You can create the method in the Window of WD Component.
You also need to create exit plug (outbound) with parameter url (type string) and specify the plug type as Suspend.
Trigger this method as desired by you in your application.
CALL METHOD cl_wd_utilities=>construct_wd_url
    EXPORTING
      application_name = 'TARGET_APPLICAITON_NAME'
    IMPORTING
      out_absolute_url = lv_url.
CONCATENATE lv_url '?sap-client=' sy-mandt '&sap-language=' sy-langu '
INTO        lv_url.
wd_this->fire_exit_plg(
    url = lv_url                              " string
Thanks
