TopLevel Navigation

Hi, i am trying to create a toplevel navigation iview using the example http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04s/helpdata/en/42/fd515a2aa95277e10000000a1553f7/content.htm . My problem is that i dont want to show all nodes... i want to ignore some nodes that correspond with a determinate role. I need help to know how ask for the rol and i need NavigationTagLibrary documentation...

HiMary,
Are you using the default/light framework page?
Anyways, the best approach is to use the navigation tag library to create top/detailed level navigation through your own CSS/styles. That way you can center the whole navigation.
Make an iview out of your developed portal component and add this to your framework page and remove the existing one.

How to delete the design bar in toplevel navigation

Hello,
I tried to delete (or make invisible) the design bar of the toplevel navigation. In the theme editor I could only make it transparent and I tried also some changes in the jsp- and js-file, but nothing worked.
What I want is, that the toplevelnavigation starts there, where at the moment start the design bar. At the moment I have a white hole at this position
I hope somebody can help me with this problem.
Thank you in advance!
Kind regards,
Ulrike

Hello Achim,
thank you for your fast answer.
The only thing I can change in the theme editor for the design bar is the background color. So, I suppose, it's not a graphic.
Or is there another possibility to change the design bar?

How to setpage/workset in a role on toplevel-navigation instead of role

Hi all,
Guess the are one page and one workset in our role, as follow:
role1 (Role)
page1 (Page)
other iviews
workset1 (Workset)
other iviews
By default, the role1 is shown in the toplevel navigation, how to set the page1 and workset1 in the topleavel navigation instead of the role1?
Thank you very much!

Sorry, the correct version is:
role1 (Role)

other iviews
workset1 (Workset)
other iviews

How is highlighted item in the toplevel navigation bar chosen?

Hi,
I have an Iview (containing a BSP froma CRM backend system) in the Portal (EP6) which contains a hyperlink, which contains this:
http://xxx.com:80/SAPPortal?NavigationTarget=%2Fglobal%2Fservices%2Finstalled%2Fcom.sap.pct.crm.UrlDispatcher.default%3F.... etc.
When I click the hyperlink, a new Portal window opens with another backend iView. Here is the strange thing: for some people the highlighted toplevel navigation item is correct (matches what the new iView is actually showing), but for other people the very first (leftmost) item in the toplevel navigation is highlighted instead. In this case it seems that some selection of the highlighted item has failed and the Portal simply picks the very first one to be the highlighted item. The difference is in the persons Roles. The hyperlink is identical, but the resulting screen is different (and the URL visible in the new window is identical as well!).
When I bring this problem to the Portal developers at my company, they tell me it is probably a backend application error. However, the BSP always creates the same hyperlink, and once clicked the backend CRM system is not utilized in any way I can think of.
So, can anyone out there a) think of some possible ways in which the different EP Roles can affect this, so I can suggest things that the Portal developers can look for, and b) what kinds of traces can I run so that I can then show a difference to the Portal developers.
Or could it REALLY be a backend application problem? I am not a Portal person so I just need some ammunition to get the Portal guys working on the problem.

OK - here's the official answer from SAP... the users for which it was not working had manager profiles. There are two sets of profiles, one in EP, one in CRM. The CRM database table that links them is CRMC_PRT_ROLE_MO. This table looks at the CRM Roles, picks the one with highest priority, and assigns a string to the hyperlink. The string is passed to the Portal where it is interpreted according to the EP Role.
Our solution (from SAP): create a manager role in CRM, assign a special string to that Role, and give it a higher priority than the regular role.

Capture the Node clicked / selected in Toplevel navigation

HI
How to capture the node that is clicked by user in the generated toplevel navigation from the taglib.
I need to pass the TAB/MENU name selected by user to another JSP using session or request object.
<nav:iterateInitialNavNodes>
       <li class='Level1'><nav:navNodeAnchor navigationMethod="byURL" />
        <%-- check to see if there are level 2 nodes, if so start another <ul> and assign a CSS class --%>
        <nav:ifNavNodeHasChildren>
            <ul>
            <%-- again go through all the nodes in level 2 --%>
            <nav:iterateNavNodeChildren>
       <%-- id l1 is written for second level hover and to set its css properties --%>
                <li class='Level2' id='l1'><nav:navNodeAnchor navigationMethod="byURL" /></li>
            </nav:iterateNavNodeChildren>
            </ul>
        </nav:ifNavNodeHasChildren>
        </li>
    </nav:iterateInitialNavNodes>
Suggestions appreciated.
Thanks in advance.

Hi ,
I got the answer, I am closing this.
Its very simple , the FPN is implemented , the URL of the portal will be appended with "Short Cut" or "Navigation Parameter" with
NavigationTarget
and
NavigationTarget=navurl://abd78e32mkf233nm892
What we need to do is, in the JSP, read this as
request.getParameter("NavigationTarget")
and check whether the user hit the same TAB in the DLN menu with
navurl://
and write the logic as we need.
Thanks for all.

Exclude or restrict toplevel navigation to less roles

Hello,
in one of our use-cases for the Netweaver Portal we want to give all employees two basic roles. This is done best by assigning these roles to the built-in group Authenticated users. So far so good.
But what are our opportunities if we want the hide these two roles in the toplevel navigation for a specific group of people. So approximatly 98% of our users should get the roles but 2% shouldnt. I cant take this 2% away of the group authenticated users.
We would really appreciate any help on this issue and reward points.
Thanks and regards
Markus Armbruster

Hi Markus,
I still can't see where the admin overhead with PCD filtering should come from. It's just a rule which the portal admins have to be aware of - but noone has to "do" anyhting, so there is no additional administrative task (once it is implemented). The question "users start asking why they're not seeing some content" would be the same independent from the technique you will be using!
Anyhow, if you prefer implementing my second approach, I would advise this only in EFP scenarios and not as you wrote removing some of the initialNavNodes, but just not to render them. Within an EFP / light TLN, you have control over the TLN entries which will be rendered, and it would be easy to check the nodes if they are one of the two "maybe-to-hide"-nodes and in this case to check the current user, if the nodes i´n fact shouldn't be rendered. Still, that would happen on server side.
Hope it helps

WPC / Short URLs / two Toplevel Navigations?!?

Hi there,
i have a question. I use the WPC to create websites in the Portal.. also our Portal Startsite.. wo what i want to do is to create a Short Article and put there some links in to other Portal Applications.
For example...
Our Startsite:
Welcome to our new Startsite..... etc...
Here you can find the New Application XYZ.. click here: XYZ
In the WPC i create a new LINK in the Article with the Short URL of the App.. looks like:
https://portal.host.com/irj/portal?navigationtarget=navurl://a789a49d67ecebe5c185c013bc67a916
So when i click now on the Startsite on this links.. the App opens.. BUT the problem is.. the link opens the complete Portal IN the Portal.. so then i see the Toplevel Navigation twice... ?!
How can i create a link on a website in the Portal so that the link opens the app in the Portal with only one Toplevelnavigation?!?
Regards
Bjoern

Hi Bjoern,
If youu2019re using WPC Editor to create your links, you need to specify u201CTopMost Windowu201D as the target window.
To do this, click anywhere within your hyperlink, click the u2018Edit Hyperlinku2019 button on the WPC Editor toolbar, and select u2018TopMost Windowu2019 as your Target Window.
Hope this helps,

How to Expose LogOff services as an iview on TopLevel Navigation

Dear Experts
I need to provide a logoff iview in Top Level Navigation.
I have created a pdk application for this. It is providing the basic functionality of logoff, but after logoff it is redirecting to the default portal logon page instead of my custosed logon page.
Code of LogOff services.
IAuthentication Authen = UMFactory.getAuthenticator();
HttpServletRequest req = request.getServletRequest();
HttpServletResponse res = request.getServletResponse(true);
Authen.forceLogoffUser(req, res,"http://ssvepd00:50000/irj/portal/anonymous/LogOnPage?guest_user=JTCGuest");
Could you please suggest me where I am missing? Is it anything to do with ume.logoff.redirect.silent property?
PAppreciate your response..

Hi! I guess it's nice to get called upon by name. :-)
As user878 mentions, the problem trying to execute tmloadcf is related to the fact that the associated IPC resources are already considered active by Tuxedo, i.e., you did a tmboot with a given TUXCONFIG and that Tuxedo environment is still running.
Specifically to answer your questions:
1)can my application placed in any folder other and execute compile tmloadcf from there?Where the files reside is almost immaterial. What is key is what the environment variable TUXCONFIG points to. That file defines a Tuxedo environment and is created with the tmloadcf command. Once the application is booted, you can't use tmloadcf to change the configuration. You either need to use the tmconfig command or shutdown the environment and then issue the tmloadcf command and then reboot the environment.
2)How to test my service using command prompt.Tuxedo only provides a generic command line client for Tuxedo services that use FML or FML32 buffers. The commands are ud and ud32. For Tuxedo services that use other buffer types, you will have to develop a specific client.
I have also updated the Jrepository .The Jolt repository is only needed if you are using Jolt, the Java client API to Tuxedo services.

Hide the First Role in the TopLevel Navigation

Hi,
I am working in EP 7.0 SP14. As per my scenario, i need to be hide first role in the list of top level navigation.

Prakash T

Hi Prakash,
        Modify Entry Point property of the page in your role to 'TRUE'. And ensure that All the parent levels ( like Worksets and Roles Has Entry Point as False). This way you will directly see your page and Role will not be displayed in Top level navigation.
     For more info.. check this link..

Dropdown toplevel navigation using portal theme

Hi everybody,
I successfully created a TLN with suckerfish dropdowns using this blog
EFP: Working with the new Taglibs - Part 3
I get the dropdowns on hover but they do not inherit the look and feel of the portal. Instead of inheriting the theme of the portal, it is just displayede as plain html links.
I would like these dropdowns to inherit the same theming as the portal.
Can anybody help me on how to do this?
Thank you
Kr
wouter Delellio

Hi,
If you want to inherit from the Portal theme, check the CSS classes that are used and try applying them to the suckerfish elements.
I guess you use the Navigation Taglibs, so you may end up using anchorAttributes.
--> check the SAP Help Portal for details about navigational tag libs

How to make top level navigation not refresh

Hello Guys,
I have a question concerning on my External Facing Portal, my boss wants that when I click on a tab or a link in the Top Level Navigation , to load the content in the Content Area without refreshing the whole page, What I want is that when I click on a tab or link of the Top Level Navigation , the Top Level Navigation and the MasterHead not to refresh and that the content be loaded and refreshed only in the Content Area. The only way I know to do this is by making a frameset of my page and to make the masterhead and toplevel navigation a frame and the detalied navigation a frame and the content area a frame, and in the links to put the target property to the name of the content area frame, but I don't know if this is possible to do in the portal, I see that all is embedded and I don't know how to make a frameset like this in the portal.
Any highlights to solve this will sure be appreciated.
Thanks
Rewarding points will be given.
Luis

Hi,
When you are implementing External Facing Portal, i think you have used Light Framework Page. In Light Framework Page, only one Framework has been used, so when you click on the top level navigation, the whole page will get refresh, so there is no otherway as of my knowledge. If you use standard framework page in portal, it is possible to do (i.e. the content area only get refresh) and the concept of your External Facing Portal is eliminated here.

Navigation through a new role and persistence of user properties

Hi there,
I have a question related to roles and user-experience in the SAP Enterprise Portal.
Depending on the preference of the portal user I would like to offer a different navigation by assiging a new role to the user.
For example initially a role offers the navigation show below:
Role 1:
Toplevel navigation: Entry A Entry B Entry C
After a user request for a different navigation the order of the toplevel navigation changes.
Role 2:
Toplevel navigation: Entry B Entry C Entry A
In order to realize this, I created two worksets for Entry A. By using merge-ids and a difference in sorting I managed to move the Entry A to the end of the toplevel navigation bar after assiging role 2.
However I noticed that iView properties set by the portal users under role1 are lost after assigning the role2. Is there any way a user can keep the properties set under a previous role when getting assigned to a new role that has the same page?
Thanks in advance,
Arko

FacesContext context = FacesContext.getCurrentInstance();
context.getApplication().getNavigationHandler().handleNavigation(context,
null,
"<<NAVIGATION STRING>>");
Thanks,

ESS - Top-Level navigation changes by following a link in an iView

Hi,
if i follow a link in an iView for example:
Ess - overview - employee search - who is who it changes my TopLevel-Navigation from Employee Self-Services to another.
The First-Level Navigation changes, the Second-Level Navigation is the same as in the Employee Self-Services ( Overview, Employee Search, ... ). By activating one of them it gives an error ( JavaScript ):
gNavTreeChildren[...]children is null or not an object
Why does it change my First Level Navigation?

the source-code:
<a class="urLnkFunction urVt1" id="CNDBNBBJ.AreaViewStatic.ServiceLink10"
ct="Link" title="Participation Overview" onkeydown="return me.h_m(event,window,'sapUrMapi_Link_activate
('CNDBNBBJ.AreaViewStatic.ServiceLink10',SSR.event)');" href="javascript:void(0);" onclick="return me.h_e(event,window,this,'Link','LINKCLICK',
{'event':'event','ControlId':'CNDBNBBJ.AreaViewStatic.ServiceLink10'},'',true);"><nobr>
<span class="urTxtStd"><span ct="Caption" title="Participation
Overview">Participation Overview</span></span></nobr></a>
