Overview of Enterprise Portals

Portal Content Objects
iView Program that retrieves data and displays it in the content area Page Contains layout and content (iViews) Workset Collection of tasks, services and information that is part of a role Role Collection of tasks, services and information available for a group of users, determines what can be accessed, provides visualization and navigation 02 SAP NetWeaver Web Dynpro for Java © 2008 SAP AG © 2008 William D. Haseman

Portal Content Objects
Role User Workset Page iView 02 SAP NetWeaver Web Dynpro for Java © 2008 SAP AG © 2008 William D. Haseman

Typical Object Assignments
Pages include iViews Worksets include iViews and pages Roles include worksets Groups include users Roles are assigned to users or groups 02 SAP NetWeaver Web Dynpro for Java © 2008 SAP AG © 2008 William D. Haseman

Portal Content Directory (PCD)
All content objects are stored in the PCD Delta links – object reuse Creation of relationships between objects Generic transport mechanism Personalization Object notification Versioning Permissions to use access control lists (ACLs) Filter mechanism and search 02 SAP NetWeaver Web Dynpro for Java © 2008 SAP AG © 2008 William D. Haseman

Hierarchical PCD Structure
iView 02 SAP NetWeaver Web Dynpro for Java © 2008 SAP AG © 2008 William D. Haseman

Portal Content Studio Content → Content Administration
Navigation panel (left) Tabs – Browse or search Portal content tree – shows PCD Quick info – describes properties of object selected 02 SAP NetWeaver Web Dynpro for Java © 2008 SAP AG © 2008 William D. Haseman

Portal Content Studio Editing area is displayed
Object tabs – select one of multiple objects you are editing Object editor tools – changing actions and operations Object editor – allows editing the object Child object editor – edit child objects Property editor – customize the properties 02 SAP NetWeaver Web Dynpro for Java © 2008 SAP AG © 2008 William D. Haseman

Reusing Objects Copy an object
In the portal catalog, you can create a new object by copying an existing object and pasting it elsewhere as an object You can insert one content object into another object as a copy Once the copy is made, there is no future relationship between the two objects 02 SAP NetWeaver Web Dynpro for Java © 2008 SAP AG © 2008 William D. Haseman

Reusing Objects Create Delta Links
Create an object based on a template – new object inherits all the properties of the original and is delta linked In the portal catalog, you can create a new object by copying and existing one and pasting them as a delta link You can insert one content object into another object as a delta link 02 SAP NetWeaver Web Dynpro for Java © 2008 SAP AG © 2008 William D. Haseman

Delta Link Properties are object parameters that permit the configuration and personalization of content in the portal These properties get set in the property editor When a new object (target) is delta linked to another (source), it inherits it’s properties If the properties of the source is changed, the properties of the target will also change If you change the targets properties, those properties will no longer be delta linked 02 SAP NetWeaver Web Dynpro for Java © 2008 SAP AG © 2008 William D. Haseman

iViews For SAP Applications
You can integrate the following SAP applications in SAP EP iViews SAP Transactions Internet Application Components (IACs) Business Server Pages (BSP) applications WebDynPro and Visual Composer applications SAP BW reports Generic databases RSS Feeds URLs 02 SAP NetWeaver Web Dynpro for Java © 2008 SAP AG © 2008 William D. Haseman

Integrated SAP Systems
SAP Transaction – R/3 Transaction Codes SAP GUI for HTML SAP GUI for Java SAP GUI for Windows SAP IAC – Internet Application Components ITS SAP BSP – BSP’s with Web WAS 6.1 SAP WEB – Web Dynpro with WAS 6.3 SAP BW Report – SAP BW 02 SAP NetWeaver Web Dynpro for Java © 2008 SAP AG © 2008 William D. Haseman

Naming Conventions Each PCD object has a unique name made up of the following: Complete path to the object pcd:pottal_content/BusAdm746/S903000/…. Optimal namespace prefix (do not use in this course) Base name of the ID iView001 02 SAP NetWeaver Web Dynpro for Java © 2008 SAP AG © 2008 William D. Haseman

Demonstration Browse portal catalog
Create folder in the portal catalog Working with iViews Use existing iViews Copy Delta link Create iViews (templates) Web-based URL iViews R/3 Transaction 02 SAP NetWeaver Web Dynpro for Java © 2008 SAP AG © 2008 William D. Haseman

Working with Pages A portal page holds iViews and pages organized in a layout User can arrange content on the page by moving iViews (and pages) from one container to another (they can not alter arrangement of containers) They can select a different layout, with a different arrangement of containers 02 SAP NetWeaver Web Dynpro for Java © 2008 SAP AG © 2008 William D. Haseman

Out of the Box Layouts Predefined layouts: 1 column (full width)
2 columns (equal width) 2 columns (narrow:wide) 2 columns (wide:narrow) 3 columns (narrow:wide:narrow) You can create new layouts based upon these 02 SAP NetWeaver Web Dynpro for Java © 2008 SAP AG © 2008 William D. Haseman

Demonstration Creating a portal page

Roles Role A role is defined to provide access to a set of common tasks A user or group of users are then assigned to that role Role is the largest semantic unit within content objects A user can only access content for which they have been assigned a role Role structure defines the navigation structure 02 SAP NetWeaver Web Dynpro for Java © 2008 SAP AG © 2008 William D. Haseman

Worksets Lets you bundle iViews and pages in folder hierarchies
A workset is always part of a role A workset can belong to more than one role You can not assign worksets to users 02 SAP NetWeaver Web Dynpro for Java © 2008 SAP AG © 2008 William D. Haseman

Roles and Worksets Role can contain the following objects: Roles
Pages iViews Templates for pages and iViews Worksets can contain the following objects: 02 SAP NetWeaver Web Dynpro for Java © 2008 SAP AG © 2008 William D. Haseman

Creating a System A system definition provides the connector or “middleware” that allows that system to talk to EP Methods for creating a system Existing template System Landscape wizard Copy and paste an existing system Content developers reference a system through an alias 02 SAP NetWeaver Web Dynpro for Java © 2008 SAP AG © 2008 William D. Haseman
