Hi,
"Our setting is done in R/3, u can access the original documents or DIR files through Internet with out logging in it SAP logon, ie... if they want to access documents remotely
through internet logon"
"If it is so then once files are loaded in to SAP DMS, there is no need of SAP logon, or SAP access to view the documents, it can be done from any where remotely
using our normal internet explorer
in WEB DMS,
1 u can access ur originals from internet without loging in to SAP GUI.
2. once u access dir from web then there is no need of SAP DMS to access,
3. U dont need any extra equipments to access DIR from net, but some cutomization are required fron SAP end
a) Go to CVAW_Cust t code and define all document types.
b) Go to RZ10 transaction and create profile
c)go to SICF transaction and activate CVAW_Entire services
d) Go to SE80 and select BSP Application and CVAW_ENTIRE
double click on index.htm, click on testrun(F8) to generate link.
Once link is generated u can use this URL to access ur DIR fronm web.

What is Portal in XI?

Hi All,
Please tell me what is Portal in XI?
WHy we have separate IR and ID parts? Why they two have not clubed into one?
Thanks,
Vijay

Hi Vijay,
SAP XI centrally manages the integration knowledge in the Integration Repository and Directory. The Integration Repository gathers together all objects relevant for shipment (see: Design) while the contents of the Integration Directory must be configured at the customer site for the particular system landscape (see: Configuration).
Integration Builder: Design - Integration Repository
Integration Builder: Configuration - Integration Directory
All design objects in OR are later on used in the configuration part ID.
Check out the below:

What is Portal Ldap Directory

Hi Experts,
In documentation of User Management, I saw ' in addition to corporate LDAP directory server(which portla uses as user data repository) Portal User Management Component uses a dedicated portal LDAP directory to store additional data for the portal.
So here my dought is what is portal LDAP directory, Is it comes with portal installation or do we need this server separately,if we need to install separately, which directory server we need to install and for what additional information we need to install this server.
Pls any one clarify my dought,,Points will be rewards.
Regards
Seshu

Hi,
Yes you need to have a separate server i.e. LDAP server. It is not shipped with portal installation, usually every organisation have LDAP servers as their data sources where every user in an organisation is stored so portal provides ways to integrate this server so that we need not to create users again in portal, once integrated all the users in LDAP will be accessed using portal and every user will have his/her own id created in portal through this data source.
For some more information, refer these links.

What is Portal Content

What do you mean by Portal Content?

Content is much more than information; its everything the user sees and interacts with.
Content is brought together for specific users in portal content, where they can complete administrative tasks, business tasks, and personal tasks.
Portal content includes whats needed to complete role-specific tasks. These tasks may require:
     The ability to work in enterprise applications .
     Access to internal and external services
     Access to relevant reports and analytics
     Access to unstructured information

Portal Database -- What it is? Can we store data in Portal itself?

Hi Experts,
Can you please let me know what is portal database?
Can I store some information like Emp No and Tel No in Portal itself?
Regards,
Gaurav

Hi Gaurav,
1.Portal Database holds the portal related data like iviews,worksets,pages, roles etc.
Refer to [How the Portal Works|http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04s/helpdata/en/42/BFA145731B1D64E10000000A1553F6/content.htm]

DMS SEARCH THROUGH PORTAL

Dear SAP Gurus,
I'm using SAP NW 2004s ,i have connected my portal with DMS and when i search documents from DMS through dms search iview it is giving wrong result,please help me in solving this issue.
regards,
sathya.

Hi sathya,
1) you had connected dms to portal using connector ( supplied by sap --- hardcoded by SAP)
2)you search documents through search iview (supplied by sap --- hardcoded by SAP -- i hope so ).
in this scenerio it is better to raise an message to SAP or look out for SAP note in market place.sometimes such problems could be solved by importing a latest service pack but then it will be informed by sap through SAP note.

Vijay.

Showing documents from third party DMS

Hi All,
We have a requirement where we want to show the documents in EP from a third party DMS.
Can anyone guide how to proceed on that?
Regards,
Piyush

Hi,
this depends on what your third party DMS is.
What you normally would need is a repository manager: http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw2004s/helpdata/en/30/a12ddeea29534eaa33c67fefed3504/frameset.htm
SAP provides some repository managers in the standard. One that could be used is the WebDAV Repossitory Manager if your DMS supports this.
Some DMS vendors provide Repository Managers for the SAP NetWeaver Portal. Therefore it could be a good idea to ask your vendor if there is something available
Kind regards
Karin

Redline and Markups on Portal

Hi All,
I hit a road block on providing a solution where the outside vendors could carry out the redlining and markups on a PDF document published on the portal. DMS is used as the back end and I need to export back the markups files along with the original image. I taught of redlining features of cFolders which opens up in a browser and saves the files on the SAP database which could be latter exported back to DMS.
But I am not sure if the ECL viewer has to be installed at the vendors desktop for redlining in CFolder?
Did any of you hit the same path for any of your business requirement for redlining on PDF documents on portal? What are the third party softwares or development which could be considered in this scenario. Please share!!
Paddy

Hi Parry,
I agree with you. Hope in the next version of ECL Viewer this will be taken care of, as its the requirement of many businesses.
But if you are going to use the SAP DMS on webGUI then it would be easier for you to use the DMS red-lining functionality.
Alternatively till you get the PDF red-lining in cFolders, there is a work-around available.
Try converting your PDF files into tiff files and then you will be able to make red-lining in cFolders.

Webi Portal Integration

Hi:
Is it possible to "schedule" a webi report from the portal iview?
In my case, I am able to create an iview and link the report ID with it. This lets me see the webi report. Upon clicking EDIT I can go to edit mode (as of now I am investigating the warning netscape.javascript.JSException, but still it works on saing OK) as well and even save it in the Infoview with a different name. Now I am interested in exploring if I can also schedule the webi to run a certain time of the day via Portal.
Any technical help on this would be really appreciated.
Thanks,
Sudipt

Hi,
We will be publishing a Crystal Report, WebIntelligence report and one Xcelsius dashboard. The Crystal report we already have the mechanism for (as you know, since you wrote the book on it!). With the WebI and Xcelsius documents we would like to consider the following scenarios:
1. Publish them as actual, visible reports in the portal. IViews?
>>> The steps would be the same - it is just a different ID for a different object. Make sure you use the option BusinessObjects Enterprise from the iView template.
2. Publish them as hyperlinks in a list of reports
>> You would have to create your own little application offering that or you could use Dashboard Builder as well. Logon to InfoView, go to Dashboards > corporate dashboard > where you have the option of Navigation List and Viewer.
3. Link the portal to InfoView and use it as the presentation medium for the reports and navigation between the reports.
>> possible but you might want to open InfoView in a new window because InfoView is not "made" to run in a frame.
>> Did you look at the KM Integration ? sounds like it would solve lots of items for you.
Since these reports will be interactive and the possibility exists that the WebI report will have to "run on open", what SAP portal complications might that present?

Portal Runtime Error when opening Webflow workitem in UWL

Hi,
I have recently configured the UWL to pick up workitems from SAP workflow on a background system. The workitems are appearing OK in the Task folder. However, when I try to open a workitem by double-clicking on it, I get the following error:
Portal Runtime Error
An Exception occurred while processing your request. Send the exception ID to your portal administrator.
Exception ID: 05:33_30/09/10_0010_24209150
Refer to the log file for details about this exception.
NB. This only seems to happen for items that would be shown via the SAP GUI (E.g. a Confirming a task completion or user decision). The workitem runs OK if it is for a task that is visualised as a Web Dynpro app and specified in transaction SWFVISU.
I have not configured Delta Refresh options in the Workflow Administrator so do not know if this is a possible reason (I assumed that this would not cause a problem and would simply mean that refreshes only occur once every 60 seconds). Any help would be greatly appreciated. I am fairly new to Portal & UWL I would also be grateful if someone could tell where I can find the relevant log files referenced in the original error.
Regards
Simon

Hey Simon,
Welcome to UWL :). Portal Runtime Errors in UWL don't always signify that there is a UWL issue. This could be a permissions problem, etc. I'm not sure what version of the portal that you are using. But here is a little trick for you when checking logs...you can enter in the following: irj/servlet/prt/portal/prtroot/com.sap.portal.runtime.admin.logviewer.default
and check the log file with the id that was given in the error.
Exception ID: 05:33_30/09/10_0010_24209150 is your exception id. Search for the log files in the default trace and see what the exact error message is. If you can post this here it would be great.
The log files can be found in the following location:
/usr/sap/<SID>/JC<InstanceNumber>/j2ee/cluster/
server<number>/log
or by entering the URL that I mentioned above.
Please let me know in the next reply what the portal version is:
You can get this information by doing the following:
a. log on to the portal
b. backspace out the irj/portal section of the URL
c. click enter.
d. You are now at the J2EE administration page.
e. Next, click on the system information link
f. Please click on the all components link
g. Please attach this information to the message.
I am interested mostly in the UWLJWF component but if you can attach the full software component info to this post that would be great...
Please note, that note number 1133821 is an important note that is needed in the UWL. Did you maintain your RFC destination accordingly?
Here is some additional information to help you too since you are new to UWL:
