Top Level Navigation Invisible for Administrator in EP6.0

I have installed SAP NetWeaver 2004s SP16, EP6.0 and Developer Studio 2.0.16.  But When I log on to portal using Administrator user id, I am not getting Top Level Navigation.  I also tried other user id's.  Please provide me solution.  Thanks in advance.

I suggest you login to Visual Administrator and check if Administrator is part of Administrators Group. You can find this by going into Services > Security Provider > User Management. Search for Administrator and check if he is part of Administrators group.
If not add it, by default Super Admin Role is assigned to Administrators group. Once you get this role you should see all the navigational Tabs.
Hope this helps.

  • Link to top-level navigation items

    hi all,
    does anybody know how to create a link to a top-level navigation item from an jsp iView? the idea is similar to Home-page and area-page concept in the new ESS with WebDynpro. From the home-page, users can navigate direct to an item which is displayed in the top-level navigation. fyi, we are on EP6.
    Thanks in advance.

    Hi,
    You can create links to any navigation node, the keyword here is NavigationTarget.
    Check this for more:

  • Changing Top Level Navigation

    Hi,
    The top level navigation is always displayed as TAB. Is there any way that we can change this to appear as tree level navigation.

    Hi,
    Thanks for the time being mah colleage got a solution. Created 2 dummy roles  test1, test 2 . Assigned Test1 to Test2, and assigned other roles to those Test2.
    Went to default frame work  set Tool Area, Top-Level Navigation invisible.
    Now the other roles that have been assigned to test role 2 appear on detail navigation as a tree.
    Not recommended but works ;).

  • Top level navigation to be re organized to come in one page

    Dear SDN,
    I have one requirement. I want to change the Portal Theme in such a way that Top level navigation to be re organized to come in one page istead of scrolling left or right. Suppose the user having more than 20 roles then he shouldnt be scrolling more times to left or right for the roles, thats why we want that in one page.
    Can anybody please help me to solve this. Is there any way where we can set all roles visible in one page??
    Thanks & Regards,

    I have given you the link above.
    You should read it
    There is a step wise procedure for how can you set Navigation Level to 0.
    I. Configure Top-Level Navigation
           1.      In the Portal Catalog choose Portal Users-> Standard Portal Users. This folder contains the Default Framework Page.
           2.      Right-click Default Framework Page and choose Open ->Object.
           3.      From the Page Content List, select the Top-Level Navigation iView and click Properties.
           4.      In the Navigation property category, scroll to the Number of Display Levels property and enter the value 0, 1, or 2, depending on how many navigation levels, if any, you want for top-level navigation.
    Choosing 0 removes top-level navigation and displays your navigation structure in the Detailed Navigation iView.
           5.      Click Save.
    II. Configure Detailed Navigation
           1.      From the Page Content List of the Default Framework Page, select Desktop Innerpage and click Open.
           2.      From the Page Content List of the Desktop Innerpage select the Detailed Navigation iView and click Properties.
           3.      In the Navigation property category, scroll to the Start at Level property and assign a value that is one higherthan the value of the Number of Display Levels property in procedure l. Configure Top-Level Navigation. For example, if top-level navigation is configured for one level, the detailed navigation begins on the second level, that is with the value 2.
    Detailed navigation is not automatically synchronized with top-level navigation; the values that you enter for top-level and detailed navigation must agree. For example, if you enter the value 1 for top-level navigation, while detailed navigation still has the value 3, one level is left out, creating a gap.
           4.      Click Save.
    III. Configure the Content Area
           1.      From the Page Content List of the Desktop Innerpage, select the Content Area iView and click Properties.
           2.      In the Navigation property category, scroll to the Number of Display Levels in TLN property and enter the same value as that of the Number of Display Levels property in procedure I. Configure Top-Level Navigation.
           3.      Click Save.
    Thanks...

  • Creating a dropdown for Roles in Top Level Navigation

    Hi,
    I am trying to customize the com.sap.portal.navigation.toplevel.par file.
    Can anybody please help me to create a dropdown for various roles in the portal,if the user clicks on the first role in the Top Level Navigation ,he should see a dropdown list with worksets of the role.
    Any help would be really appreciated
    Thanks
    Art Tech.

    Hello Art Tech,
    I hope I understand you right. You want to change the appearance of the custom built TLN according to the currently chosen portal theme, just like the standard TLN would change its appearance.
    Well, if so, then there are two ways:
    1) The HTML and styles/classes of your custom built TLN are still more or less the same as in the standard or you can at least reuse most of the standard HTML output/structure, then applying a new theme would also affect your custom TLN.
    2) You have your own HTML output for the TLN, not relying on anything from the standard TLN, and you most probably work with a custom stylesheet file (e.g. "tln.css"). What you have to do then is to provide a set of TLN stylesheet files for each portal theme you want to support and include it accordingly by retrieving the current theme's name via the ILafService (Look & Feel Service). Or you rely on only one CSS file, then have as many "blocks" of styles (marked with a preceding class selector like in e.g. ".themeNameA ul li a " and ".themeNameB ul li a ") as you have themes, and put a bracket around the TLN-output with class="currentThemeName". For this last approach I give you the sample code (assuming you want to support the themes "SAP Standard", "SAP Tradeshow" and "SAP Chrome"):
    The TLN code: tln.jsp
    &gt;<%@ taglib uri="NavigationTagLibrary" prefix="nav" %>
    &gt;<%@ page import = "com.sapportals.portal.prt.service.laf.*" %>
    &gt;<%@ page import = "com.sapportals.portal.prt.runtime.PortalRuntime" %>
    &gt;<%
    &gt;// include the TLN stylesheet
    &gt;response.include(componentRequest, componentRequest.getResource("css", "css/tln.css"));
    &gt;
    &gt;// retrieve the current theme's technical name
    &gt;ILAFService iLAFService = (ILAFService)PortalRuntime.getRuntimeResources().getService(ILAFService.KEY);
    &gt;String currentTheme = iLAFService.getCurrentTheme(componentRequest).getThemeName();
    &gt;%>
    &gt;
    &gt;&lt;div class="<%=currentTheme%>"&gt;
    &gt;  &lt;ul&gt;
    &gt;  <nav:iterateInitialNavNodes>
    &gt;    &lt;li&gt;<nav:navNodeAnchor navigationMethod="byURL" />
    &gt;    <!-- second level ? -->
    &gt;    &lt;/li&gt;
    &gt;  </nav:iterateInitialNavNodes>
    &gt;  &lt;/ul&gt;
    &gt;&lt;/div&gt;
    The stylesheet: tln.css
    &gt;.sap_standard ul li {background-color:#FFCCCC}
    &gt;.sap_standard ul li a
    &gt;
    &gt;.sap_tradeshow ul li {background-color:#CCCCFF}
    &gt;.sap_tradeshow ul li a
    &gt;
    &gt;.sap_chrome ul li {background-color:#CCCCCC}
    &gt;.sap_chrome ul li a
    I hope this solves your problems.

  • Drop down menu for top level navigation

    Dear All,
    I recently had a quick peek at SAP's corporate Portal, which has a drop down menu in the top level navigation that dynamically changes the secondary level navigation based on the option selected.
    We are currently running a standard portal (<b>not</b> an external facing lightweight framework portal), does anyone know how to achieve a similar result so that we can provide a drop-down menu to allow the user to dynamically change their role structure?
    Many thanks
    James

    Hi James,
    We have implemented such thing two years ago, also without EFP (with the light framework, it's easy). It took some days (more than 5) to change every JS, JSP etc which has to be touched for this. In the end, the first level of the navigation had been moved up into the dropdownbox, so that when changing the ddb, the two lines of the originabl TLN showed in fact the second and the third level (and the DTN starting with the fourth level).
    It was really nice, but keep in mind that this means modifying the standard and maintaining this solution with new SPS coming up...
    Hope it helps

  • Tool Tip for Top Level Navigation - EP6SP2?

    Hi,
    Is it possible to provide tool tip for top level navigation.
    We have only one level TLN and Detail Navigation. On mouse over of TLN objects is it possible to provide tool tip?
    Thanks.

    Hi Raja,
    as Pankaj stated, the NavTagLib is the answer - but: it needs the LightFrameworkPage. And both together at the moment for example doesn't support Collaboration, means, if you click on some room, bang, error messages and nothing does work as expected.
    If you don't need CollRooms, you might give it a try.
    In addition, you can check out the "Hover effect", see http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/53/a16a3e54a2e946e10000000a114084/frameset.htm - it's probably not really what you want, I just want to point to that possibility (working within the standard framework page) for a complete overview.
    The last possibility is to modify com.sap.portal.navigation.toplevel; the TLN entries are rendered through toplevelnavigation.js, methods printLevel/printLevel1Table/printLevel2Table.
    Hope it helps

  • Problem with switching tabs in top level navigation for Roles

    Hi,
    I've created two tabs (based on two roles) in the portal top level navigation menu. When clicking the first one it opens as it should. Then when clicking on the second tab it will not open, instead the first tab open up again, it sort of switches back automatically.These  two roles  are  basically consists of worksets and iviews(accessing to r/3).
    Does anyone have any expericene with this type of problem?
    please  suggest me

  • Top Level Navigation jumps to wrong workset

    Hi,
    In our portal (SP15), rather than loading the first page/iview of each workset in the top level navigation, we wanted a starter page that said something like 'click a menu item to continue'. To achieve this, I created the relevant URL iview and added it (delta-link) to each workset that appeared in the TLN. I then changed the properties of the iview so that it was Invisible in the Navigation AND Default Entry for Folder. So now when you click on a TLN node, the iview appears but doesn't show in the menu.
    However, this has created some strange behaviour. Once a node on the TLN has been selected that points to proper page or iview (i.e. one that appears in the navigation), if you then click on any workset on the second level (first level ones are ok), the TLN "jumps" back to the node which has the page/iview - but still shows the starter page iview. This means that users can't access any workset on the second level, except the first one to be displayed (i.e. when you have several nested worksets in a workset).
    Can anyone explain why this is happening? The problem only occurs when the starter iview is both Invisible in the Navigation AND Default Entry for the Folder. Is this expected behaviour (and if so, why?) or is it a bug? Is there another way to achieve what we want?
    Many thanks
    Jane

    If I do that, the iview does not appear because I already have an Entry Point above that level (i.e. the Workset). Entry Point as Yes only sets the initial navigation node, it doesn't force an iview to appear. (or at least this is what my testing has shown).
    We may have to rethink how we can do this - does anyone know of a way to stop the first iview/page loading in every TLN node, and instead just showing the portal background?
    Many thanks
    Jane

  • How to start Top-Level Navigation on Level two?

    Hi,
    does anyone known a trick how i can start the top-level navigation at Level two?
    I make an own frameworkpage and try to set it in the iview properties, but there is not an property for this. it is only for the detailed-navigation iView there.
    For what:
    I need this, because i would open an pop-up with an other portal window. I link to the popup with navigation-target=... In this pop-up should only be the content of one role. This folder i have set to "invisible in the navigation area". So the User always see him in a popup. when i start at the default Top-navigation level 1, the user see all the other navigation folders.
    Best regards,
    Patrick

    Hi Patrick,
    up to SPS13, this needs some hands on on different parts of the TLN. What I've done this spring was showing all top-level nav targets within a select box in the masthead and then, after having selected one of these entries, the TLN shows just the content of this top level entry. So this is more or less the same. As said, some work to do.
    As of SPS14, with the new navigation taglib, I expect this to be much less work; anyhow, I didn't convert the results into SPS14, so I cannot say if this is really as easy as I expect.
    Hope it helps

    Still it is not visible
    Any clues please.
    Thanx and Regards,

    As Rightly said
    1)  First copy ESS folder created in "Content provided by SAP" under "Portal Content".
    2)  Copy standard ESS Role for u r customization
    3)  Open Custom Role "Employee Self Service"
    4)  Property Category : Navigation
    5)  Check Entry Point property
    It shuld be NO for Role but It shuld be YES for Workset ESS under it as per standard then Its Fine
    6)  Then Assign this role to u r User thru UserAdmin
    7)  Refresh
    It shuld work !!!!

    Hi,
    We have faced a similar problem earlier, one of the developers changed the property to 0. Luckily for us, one of the user id has got Content Administrator as the first tab, so we could change the iview template and got the TLN. Check this option.
    The following is a theoritical idea only, i have not implemented this
    Download "com.sap.portal.navigation.toplevel.par.bak" and change the code. Check out this link
    https://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/42/fd515a2aa95277e10000000a1553f7/content.htm
    You have to change the code as
    levels=2;
    before this line
    if(levels>0)
    { %>
    Take a backup of the existing TLN par and upload the edited one with the same name. Then try login and see whether you are able to get the contents, update the property back to 2.
    Note : try to upload the necessary jar files in NWDS.

  • Content admin - iview not in top level navigation bar

    Using my Administrator ID.
    Also Portal Admin -> channel assigment not in top level navigation bar.
    What role am I missing?

    Hi,
    The short answer to your question is that you need to add the relevant iView(s) and change the applicable role or iView properties to display in the areas necessary.
    Generally you require the super admin role to structure other admin roles to the different types of admin roles in your enterprise with a default installation.
    You could for example determine that your content admin receive more than just the default iView(s) applicable to them, and that you want those iView(s) to display as tabs, or only in the detailed navigational areas. This is a matter of personal preference and thus SAP allows you to customize this as you see fit.
    I hope this helps.
