System Landscape for ESS/MSS in EP60 SP2

I have installed EP60 SP2 on J2EE 6.20 and MSSQL. I have imported business packages ESS 50-4 and MSS 60-1-5. I have created the folder Systems in Portal Content and created a system SAP_R3 with aliases SAP_R3_HumanResources, SAP_R3_Cross, SAP_R3_Travel, and SAP_R3_Financials.
My 4.7 R/3 system is app server R3DEV02.domain.com, system id DEV, sysno 01, client 100. My ITS server is http://itsdev01.domain.com:71/scripts/wgate/webgui/! using client 100. My EP path is http://sapport01.domain.com:50000/irj/.
Given this information, can anyone tell me exactly what parameters I must set in the system landscape for system SAP_R3 and what the values should be for ESS and MSS to work properly? If I go to the System Landscape Cockpit, system SAP_R3 fails all tests.
Any and all help is certainly appreciated.

Hello Gary,
WRT SAP_R3 system landscape test failure, I ran into the same issue earlier, for a SAP_R3_Dedicated system. Keep the same setting values, but leave the system id (DEV) Blank, then test.
Your definition of (Application Server Host Address + System Number) should be sufficient for a SAP_R3_Dedicated connection.
I hope this will resolve your system TEST problem.

System Landscape for ESS/MSS

Hi Experts,
I am on ERP2004, EP 6.0 SP20. I am trying to create a system landscape for the ESS/MSS Applications. ALways the connection test fails. This is the landscape I am trying to create:
1. One SAP Dedicated Application Server: for SAP_WebDynpro_XSS
 Connector Details:
Application Host: <host>.<company.com>
SAP CLient: 010
SAP System Number: 00
Server Port: 3200 (Using Dedicated Application Server)
WAS Details:
 Host: <hostname>.<company.com>:50000
 Path: /webdynpro/dispatcher/
 System Alias: SAP_WebDynpro_XSS
System Aliases:
SAP_WebDynpro_XSS.
SAP_ITS_XSS
SAP_ITS_EBU
User Management;
Logon Method: SAPLOGONTICKET
User Mapping Type: admin,user.
When I am testing the
Connector Details:
I am getting the following errors:
1. Retrieval of default alias successful
2. Connection failed. Make sure user mapping is set correctly and all connection properties are correct.
WAS Connection Tests:
1. The system ID is valid
2. The system was retrieved.
3. The system object represents an SAP system
4. The following parameters are valid: Web AS Protocol (http) Web AS Host Name (<J2EE Engine Host>.<company.com>:50000)
5. The host name <J2EE Engine Host>.<company.com> was resolved successfully.
6. The server <J2EE Engine Host>.<company.com>:50000 could not be pinged successfully.
SSO is not set up yet. I do not understand why the details of J2EE Engine under WAS details in a system type : SAP Dedicated Application Server? Please help me. I am missing something.
I appreciate your help.
Regards,

Single Sign On set up and every application is working on portal.
But the ping always fails.
I do not understand one more thing from help.sap.com on System Landscape for ESS.
Documentation says:
Set up your system landscape. To do this, set up the following systems:
what kind of system this is: SAP_R3 or SAP_BW/SAP_CRM. In standard portal system template, there is no system like "J2EE engine".

Setting Up the System Landscape for ESS

Hello Experts,
I am implementing ESS in portal.
I am in step of defining systems in portal for ESS/MSS.
Below is link I am following from help.sap.com
[Link|http://help.sap.com/erp2005_ehp_04/helpdata/en/5b/76a6d7fd3a4e91bfb422405bf3e04d/frameset.htm]
In above link it is mentioned that we have to define following systems :
SAP_WebDynpro_XSS
SAP_ECC_HumanResources
SAP_ECC_Travel
SAP_ITS_XSS
SAP_BSP_EREC
Additionaly according to below Article in SDN :
[Link|http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/go/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/21eb036a-0a01-0010-25a3-b2224432640a?quicklink=index&overridelayout=true]
Following additional systems must be created :
SAP_ITS_EBU Looks similar to SAP_ITS_XSS above
SAP_R3_Financials
Now the basis person in my project has handed over to me following systems :
SAP_BSP_EREC
SAP_ITS_FND Name mismatch as FND is used in place of XSS or EBU
SAP_R3_Financials
SAP_WebDynpro_ESS Name mismatch as ESS is used in place of XSS
Now below two systems are altogether missing as per first link on help.sap.com
SAP_ECC_HumanResources
SAP_ECC_Travel
Please explain if it requires to be corrected or name mismatch and missing ststems would do.
Thanking you in anticipation.

All the above names that you are referring to are not necessarily separate systems.
These are system aliases for a system object created in your portal via System Administration - System landscape.
So, if you have HR and Finance on the same backend server, then you need only one system with the related system aliases.
You will need SAP_BSP_EREC only if you are planning on using E-recruitment.
Similarly, you will need SAP_ITS_XSS only if you are planning on using any ITS applications.
It is pretty straight forward to change/correct the names of your system aliases instead of changing the usage of these aliases every where else.
SAP_ECC_HumanResources is absolutely necessary.
SAP_ECC_Travel is required if you are planning on using travel and expense related applications.
Also, note that SAP_WebDynpro_XSS should be the alias of the system where your webdynpro applications are deployed (typically the same portal server)

Do we need to create or actiovate any system objects for ess mss applicatio

Hi
I am new to ESS MSS business packages.i know we need to activate 5 pairs of JCO destinations,
do we need to create or activate any system objects ,because ess mss applications contains transactional iviews also
how they will communicate.

once you placed the portal content, the default system objetcs for ESS and MSS are delivered by SAP only, we need to configure the same like JCO destinations.,

System configuration for ESS/MSS Implementation

Hi,
I am stuck while configuring the systems for XSS configuration. I have completed following:
1) Installed Portal 7.00 (based on NW2004s) which uses the backend ERP2005 system as a User Master source.
2) Implemented the business packages for ESS 1.0 (SP6), MSS 1.0 (SP6) and SAPPCUI_GP 600 (SP6).
3) Configured the SLD ( we have SLD running on a separate XI system)
4) Configured JCO destinations (tested ok).
5) Configured Systems for Portal and the ERP systems with system aliases.
    For Portal System:   I have only configured the WAS properties (i.e. hostname, path and protocol).and User management (using UDIPW as the logon method)
The system alias is SAP_WebDynpro_XSS
    For ERP System: I have configured connection, user management and W.A.S. properties. The system aliase is SAP_ECC_HumanResources
However, when I perform the connection tests for both systems, they both fail for "Connection Test for connectors" test. It gives the message "Connection failed. Make sure the user mapping is set correctly and all connection properties are correct".
Any help is greatly appreciated.
Regards.

Hi Kristoffer,
I have tried as per your suggestion but it still gives an error.
The connector properties for my ERP system are as below:
Application Host : C1BL1 (also included the domain)
Gateway Host   : C1BL1
Gateway Service : sapgw00
Logical System Name   : ER1CLNT210
Remote Host Type - 3
SAP Client   : 210
SAP System ID (SID) : ER1
SAP System Number : 00
Server Port : 3200
System Type - SAP_R3
System aliases for ERP system are:
SAP_ECC_HumanResources and SAP_R3_Financials.
I have not maintained any W.A.S. properties for this system.
For my Portal system: WAS properties are:
Web AS Description : EP_Portal
Web AS Host Name : C1BL3:50100
Web AS Path   : /webdynpro/dispatcher/
Web AS Protocol - http
I had not maintained the connector properties for this system before, but I have now maintained as following:
Application Host : C1BL1 (also included the domain)
Logical System Name   : ER1CLNT210
Remote Host Type - 3
SAP Client   : 210
SAP System ID (SID) : ER1
SAP System Number : 00
Server Port : 3200
System Type - SAP_R3
The system alias for EP is: SAP_WebDynpro_XSS
In the UME configuration --> User mappings, I am using SAP_ECC_HumanResources system as the reference system.
Please let me know if you need more info.

EA-HR                600       0064
For ESS MSS (both Generic & WDA),
1) Do we need to deploy EA-HR_MSS add-on on our backend ECC ? If yes, what would be the version ?
2) Based on the system we have, What are all Portal business packages (list) should we deploy into Portal? and sequence to follow?
we have different verions of (BP ERP05 ESS, BP ERP05 COMMON PARTS & BP ERP05 MSS ), which version has to be deployed ?
do I need mss add-on Portal business pack also??
3) Need to deploy HR Renewal and HR Administrator Business packages as well, so could you please advice what version needs to be installed ? Unable to find HR Renewal as a Business Package in the market place.
4) Any post-installation activity after importing the business packgages in portal ?
Many Thanks in Advance !!!

Also we need to patch our stack to the latest SP. Latest SP available in market is SP11 as we prefer n-1 we planned to go for SP10, but in MOPZ while selecting the target it gives option only for SP11 in the drop down. Any reason for it ?
As you could see our SAP-HR, EA-HR LSOFE are still in 600 release. If we select the target package in MOPZ to the latest will it upgrade the SAP_HR 600, EA-HR 600& LSOFE 600 components to SAP-HR 604, EA-HR 606, LSOFE 606 ?
If I had to install HR-Renewal 1.0 I would need EA-HR 607 and LSOFE 607, so can that be included in the same stack ?
Please advice.

Backend R/3 connectivity for ESS MSS from portal

Hi,
We are currently in development cycle for ESS/MSS based on portal EP 6.0 SP16 and ERP 2004 in backend. We are trying to find out how the ESS/MSS business package on portal works with backend ESS functionality in ERP 2004. It is more of a connectivity question. We want to know if we expose our portal to internet so that users can login to ESS/MSS from internet, do we need to put backend ERP (ECC 5.0) system also in DMZ? Do we need to open ports between portal and R/3 so that ESS/MSS can work? Or the communication happens using JCO connections and we need not to expose R/3 system.
Also one more specific question? If someone knows how ESS/MSS talks to backend system. At SAP application layer level or database level? I am asking this question to check if I need to open a port to talk to database or I can very well keep 2-3 SAP application server in DMZ and work.
PK

You need to look at the specific business package. For example, ESS for mySAP ERP 2004 says that the technology is Java / Web dynpro, which says that the Java engine uses RFCc to get the data from the backend.
Othe businesss packages may use ITS, which then needs another connection from the user to the ITS server.

Upgrade path for ESS/MSS business package while upgrading to ECC 6.0

Hi All,
We have a scenario where SAP Enterprise Portal 7.0 SP 18 is currently running with SAP ECC 4.6C. SAP ECC is being upgraded to SAP ECC 6.0 and consequently we have a requirement to upgrade to the latest ESS/MSS business package. In a scenario like this what is SAP recommended approach for ESS/MSS upgrade? My questions are
1) Is a direct upgrade of ESS/MSS possible? If this is possible, then how will it be done on a production system with reduced or no downtime?
2) Should ESS/MSS business package be deployed and configured afresh after removing/undeploying the existing version of ESS/MSS business package? If this is the case how would the earlier customizations be restored?
3) Is there any other approach?
Thanks in advance.

Hi Suresh,
In my openion, it will be good if you go for new implementation, reason being as you mentiond ECC versionyou are on is 4.6c all the ESS applications are ITS based now a days all the application/iView for ESS are Webdynpro for Java or WD for ABAP based.
Till the time the new portal ready you can continue with your currect one (No down time require).
Most of the people are using this way. (Check the SDN for more details).
Also chcek this migration guide, which will give you the basic steps required.

BP ERP05 COMMON PARTS 1.0 required for ESS/MSS?

Is BP ERP05 COMMON PARTS 1.0 required for ESS/MSS 603? the link below talked about how to deploy ESS/MSS, it does not mentino BP for common parts
http://wiki.sdn.sap.com/wiki/pages/viewpage.action?pageId=31476
but in the linke that talks about how to get rid of mismatch for ESS/MSS, it has BP for common part listed https://wiki.sdn.sap.com/wiki/display/ERPHCM/HOWTOGETRIDOFSPSTACKMISMATCHISSUES
I looked at online help for this BP, it says it is for system asministrators, but looks like it also have business functions listed in the iview. http://help.sap.com/erp2005_ehp_03/helpdata/EN/eb/bd8a42f802a01ae10000000a155106/frameset.htm
I'm confused - to use ESS/MSS 603, do I really need BP ERP05 COMMON PARTS 1.0?
Thanks,
Jane Zhou

The MSS business package uses objects from other business packages. These objects are listed in the Shared Objects in This Business Package section. If you want to use these objects, you must also implement the relevant business package.
http://help.sap.com/erp2005_ehp_04/helpdata/EN/29/d7844205625551e10000000a1550b0/frameset.htm
http://help.sap.com/erp2005_ehp_04/helpdata/EN/c1/85b17cc78246258b85dd69af5ece17/frameset.htm
If you are planning to use any of the shared objects - then you will need the BP for Commom Parts as well.
Also, the BP for common parts connects different shared services between ESS and MSS - for you to be able to use both of them in conjunction.
Without installing the BP for common parts, some components might not work properly.
Hence It is recommended to install this BP along with ESS and MSS.
Hope that helps !!
Thanks,
Shanti
