SSO to SAP EP6 (for Employee Self Service) using WebSEAL

Hi SDN friends,
We are about to embark on a SSO implementation using IBM WebSEAL for SAP EP6 ESS (Employee Self Service) connecting through to an SAP R/3 4.7 server. Since the ESS solution for 4.7 still uses ITS services, this means that we have ITS iViews in the EP6 portal.
We have managed to look through the whitepaper 'IBM Tivoli Access Manager - Single Sign On for SAP NetWeaver - September 2005' described at https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/sdn/developerareas/ibm
We have the following queries, if anybody has a simple answer to these:
- Is it absolutely necessary to configure an SNC connection between ITS/EP6 and R/3 server to achieve SSO for the portal?
- Given that SAP EP6 references ITS IAC iviews, is it necessary for us to configure both ITS and EP6 for SSO, or can we simply configure EP6 for SSO? If so, is it also necessary to configure both for SSL?
- Otherwise, how easy is it to set up SSO in this scenario without SSL (for demo purposes)?
Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated.
Cheers
John Moy

Hello John,
regarding your questions:
ad 1) no. SNC is only mandatory if you use X.509-based SSO to R/3. You can also use SAP logon ticket-based SSO from EP to R/3 or usermapping that do both not require SNC.
ad 2) yes, you have to configure both EP and ITS at WebSeal.
ad 3) you can always omit SSL. However for production use, it is recommended.
Regards
Michael

Enable the Shop on Behalf functionality for Employee Self Service Role (Requisitioner) in SRM 7 EHP 3

Dear All,
We are in SRM 7.0 EHP 3 and we are planning to add the shop on behalf functionality for our requisitioner (Employee Self Service Role). As per the standard, we are aware that it can be implemented in SC professional.
Is there a way to add the SOB functionality in SC Wizard as well. We have tried the below suggestion.
Enhance the BBP_SC_MODIFY_UI BADI. But it hasn't helped us where the link is not at all appearing. Could you please advise if there is any enhancement needs to be done in Web Dynpro level or the changes need to be done in BADI and also in Web Dynpro level.
Thanks in advance for your help.
Best Regards,
Bharathi

You observation is correct and it is the standard design of such portal roles as SRM Administrator, SRM Strategic Purchaser, or SRM Operational Purchaser to not have "personalization", but only Employee Self Service role.

Employee Self Service in EP 6.0 and SAP R3 HR 4.6C

Hi, Can anyone tell me how can I configure Enterprise Portals 6.0 to the see some services of the employee self service?
I have done the following:
1. Download the business package 5.0-4.
2. Import the business package.
3. Create a role
4. add the employee self service workset to the role.
Now when I go to the page in the iviews there are errors.
I have not configured the backend systems, Where can I do that?
Is there something more to do?
Is the business Package 50.4 the properly package or there is another one more new?
Any comments, suggestions, links or documentation is welcomed.
Thanks in advance.
Best Regards.

ESS: Employee Self Services, Hrxssce_Service_Appl_Path does not exist

Hi,
I am having real problems implementing the employee self services in a Portal environment. It is located on a NW 7.0 JavaAddin with SP 15.
I followed the configuration guides on help.sap.com and rechecked all settings. I could also find some threads here in SDN-community but nothing helped so far.
My components in the server are SAP_ESS 600 SP13 and BP_ERP5ESS 1.0 SP13 . The different xss components are of version 600.
The error I get is always after a click on a specific function:
com.sap.dictionary.runtime.DdException: Type com.sap.pcuigp.xssutils.pernr.model.grpinfo.types.Hrxssce_Service_Appl_Path does not exist
The default trace of the server node shows this error message:
sap.com/ess~cod/ChangeOwnDataApplication#com.sap.tc.webdynpro.services.exceptions.TypeNotFoundException: type com.sap.pcuigp.xssutils.pernr.model.grpinfo.types.Hrxssce_Service_Appl_Path could not be loaded: com.sap.dictionary.runtime.DdException: Type com.sap.pcuigp.xssutils.pernr.model.grpinfo.types.Hrxssce_Service_Appl_Path does not exist
The only thing that I can imagine is that I used a wrong version. Is there a source where I can read about the correct releases for the correct SP-Stacks?
Does anyone have other Ideas or hints?
Thanks in advance,
André

Hi Guys
As per note 1303362 check
http://wiki.sdn.sap.com/wiki/display/ERPHCM/HOWTOGETRIDOFSPSTACKMISMATCHISSUES
To ensure you are using corresponding versions and SP levels
I can't see any problem with SAP_ESS 600 SP13 and BP_ERP5ESS 1.0 SP13 - however are these installed on the same Portal ?
are you also using SAP_HR and EA_HR version 600 in the ECC system (as recommended) - did you implement Netweaver EHP1 in ECC or Portal (not recommended for ERP 6.0)
A common reason for this issue is XSS versions are not corresponding version to SAP_HR and EA_HR - this includes component PCUI_GP which should be at version 600 for SAP_ESS 600 useage
Best wishes

Integrating Manager Self-Services(MSS), Employee Self-Services(ESS) in EP60

Hi,
I would like to integrate Manager Self-Services(MSS) and Employee Self-Services(ESS) into my Enterprise Portal EP6.0 SP2.
I have downloaded the business packages for the same and looking for a good document which can guide me to implement the integration.
Any quick response would be highly appreciated.

Hi,
the "connection" between iView and R3 System is done via the system definition. The ESS - iViews use a System alias SAP_R3_Human_Resources (and the other names I mentioned above).
If you have assigned this ESS role to a user the iView connects to the R3 system defined in the alias. If you chose single sign on the user id from the portal should be the same as in the R3. If it is different the easiest way would be to use usermapping.
The best way would be to assign this ESS role to your user and watch what is happening.
Regards,
Holger.

Employee Self-Service vs E-Learning.

Good Morning.
I have implemented ESS. I have the following doubt:
If an employee wants to inscribe a course of Learning, in ESS Where can find those services?
This Services not is in Area or Subareas of ESS??
This is a TAB as the are Employee Self-Service and Manager Self-Service in the portal?
I never have work integration of ESS vs E-Learning.
Thank in advance for your help.
Best Regards

Hi Juan,
Since the Web Dynpro versions for ESS, Training area is not integrated. That was replaced with Learning Solution (LSO), what alsomore, include new functionality, like manage e-Learning courses with SCORM standards. But take in count that LSO requires and additional license to operate in productive systems.
So what can you do?
1. Include the old apps in your Web Dynpro Portal (to prebook/request/cancel a participation and review the status). For this, add the PV7I and PV8I transactions, by using transaction or IAC iViews templates
2. For licensed LSO users, you have to download the Business Package for Learning, then make it accesible to users by adding the Role. Please check:
Business Package for Learning (SAP ERP) 1.0
To finish and be clear, e-Learning is only supported in LSO.
Kind regards

ESS-Employee Self Service-Help required.

Hello,
We have already implemented ESS-Employee Self Service.(PORTAL EP 7.0 SP13 & HR system-ECC 6.0). Now the requirement is that payroll related information in ESS needs to be mapped with another HR system SAP 4.7.Rest of the functionality needs to be unchanged.
I am beginner in portal. Can any one please provide me the required detailed documentation regarding the same.
Useful answers will be rewarded.
Regards,
Subodh Ghosalkar

Hello SJ,
Thanks for your inputs.
We have not mapped SAP 4.7 yet. We are looking forward to integrate it.
I agree that we should go for payroll in ECC 6.0 as well. But its the client requirement that as of now we want payroll from SAP 4.7.They would be migrating to ECC 6.0 in next few months. Till then we have to manage with SAP 4.7
Could you please provide me any documentaion regarding this issue or issues that we need to care off before we go ahead with this complex activity.

Subodh

Change IView in Employee Self Service

Dear Expert,
I want to change IView in Employee Self Service - Personal Information. Since IView assigned for my country does not consist of sufficient field required by my client, so I want to try to change IView in ESS to use IView from other country.
Please help if you have any information about how to do this.
Thanks & Regards,
Febrianti.

please check the name of the java application available for malaysia. I think it is sap.com/essmypdata/Per_Personal_MY now you need to go to the resource configuration in spro and change the name of the application.
most important: I dont think this will solve the issue you have as if the employee belongs to a specific country and if you attach another country service then it results in config.
The approach that I would advise is take the service decide the custom field and modify the service.

SSO to SAP EP6 (for Employee Self Service) using WebSEAL
