Integration in an Enterprise Portal (Optional) Purpose This section describes how to integrate the Web Application Server (WAS) of SAP Learning Solution in an enterprise portal. You must perform the following steps: Import the SAP Learning Solution iView into the enterprise portal Set up Single Sign-On Assign the pages of the SAP Learning Solution to individual roles

Downloading and Importing from the iView Studio To integrate the SAP Learning Solution in your enterprise portal, you need the SAP Learning Solution iView and a page on which the iView is displayed. You can find all components for download in the Content Catalog of the iView Studio at the Internet address www.sdn.sap.com/sdn/contentportfolio.sdn. Documentation for downloading and importing portal component is in the Help section. This package includes an iView for integrating WAS pages in the enterprise portal and a page on which the iView can be displayed. A workset or role is not supplied. You must assign roles manually. For information about how to do this, see “Role Assignment”.

Maintaining the System Landscape The SAP Learning Solution iView uses the alias SAP_R3_HumanResources to access the WAS on which the LSOFE 600 package is installed. To enable the iView to access this WAS, you must first create a system for the LSO back-end system in the system landscape. You must then maintain the WAS access data for this system. Finally, you must create the alias SAP_HCM_LSO for this system. Perform the following steps: ...

1. To start the System Landscape Editor, choose System Administration → System Configuration → System Landscape. 2. Create a new back-end system. a. Edit the access data for the back-end system under the Connector category. Enter the WAS client as the client. b. Edit the Web Application Server (WAS) category. Enter the host and the path. Under Log, enter the log that is set up in transaction SICF for the WAS for accessing the hcm_learning application. The HTTP log is set up in the standard system. c. Create a new alias with the name SAP_R3_HumanResources for this entry.

For more information about how to maintain the system landscape, see the Portal documentation at the Internet address help.sap.com/nw04 under SAP NetWeaver → People Integration → Portal → Administration Guide → System Administration → System Landscape.

User Mapping / Single Sign-On The Enterprise Portal and Web Application Server use different logons and generally do not have the same user administration. So that a learner does not have to log on to the Enterprise Portal and the Web Application Server separately, the Web Application Server can apply the logon from the Enterprise Portal (Single Sign-On).


676

SAP Online Help

15.05.2006

For more detailed documentation on this, see the Portal Administration Guide at the Internet address help.sap.com/nw04 under SAP NetWeaver → Security → User Authentication and Single Sign-On → Authentication on J2EE Engine → Using Logon Tickets for Single Sign-On → Configuring the Use of Logon Tickets → Configuring the SAP WebAS ABAP to Accept Logon Tickets from the J2EE Engine.

This step is optional. However, we do recommend that you use Single Sign-On.

Role Assignment The Business Package for SAP Learning Solution consists of one iView and one page. A workset or role is not supplied. So that a portal user can access SAP Learning Solution in the portal, you must assign the page of the SAP Learning Solution to its portal role.

For detailed documentation on this, see the Help Portal at the Internet address help.sap.com/nw04 under SAP NetWeaver → People Integration → Portal → Content Administration → Roles and Worksets → Adding Content to Roles and Worksets → Adding Objects as a Delta Link.

Configuring Content Management for SAP Learning Solution Use There are three steps involved when you configure Content Management (CM): Setting up a root folder Setting up users Entering authorizations

Setting Up a Root Folder To store documentation in CM, you must create a repository or storage area (root folder) that is used exclusively by SAP Learning Solution. There are two ways to create a root folder:

Creating a directory You can create a separate folder in an existing repository. In the standard installation of the CM, the documents repository is suitable for this. To create a separate folder in an existing repository, perform the following steps: ...

1. Start the portal. 2. Log on with a user that has administrator authorizations. 3. Navigate to a folder, for example documents, in which you want to create the root folder.


676

15

SAP Online Help

15.05.2006

4. Generate the root folder. Choose Folder → New → Folder. For clarity’s sake, ensure that the label for the root folder refers to the relevant SAP back-end system (in the framework of SAP Learning Solution).

You could use KP7_100Rep for an SAP system KP7, client 100, for example.

Create a repository You can create a new, separate repository. For more information, see Administering the CM. Under Structure, select the implemented SAP Enterprise Portal and the service pack that you use. WebDAV Features You should be able to access the root folder using the WebDAV protocol. This is configured accordingly in the standard CMS. For more information, see the “WebDAV Protocol“ section of the administration documentation for CM. You must also be able to set locks. The documents repository fulfils this prerequisite. If you set up your own repository, you must ensure that it fulfils this prerequisite too. For more information, see the “WebDAV Repository Manager“ section of the administration documentation for CM. Accessing the Root Folder You access the root folder through the authoring tool using the WebDAV protocol, and through the Content Player using HTTP. The access URL is identical in both cases. You can determine the URL using the properties of the repository directory created. Perform the following steps: ... ...

1. Start the portal. 2. Switch to the folder that was created. 3. Choose Folder → File. 4. Choose Settings → Properties. 5. Choose the Access Paths tab page. You will find the full access URL under WebDAV URL.

Setting Up Users Root Folder To access the root folder, you must enter the relevant users. The users require the necessary access authorizations.

The access authentication must be done using Basic Authentication. Authentication per NTLM is not possible for SAP Learning Solution. Content Player In the Content Player, you can enter any user for access to the portal. Authoring Environment In the Authoring Environment, access to the portal can be set up in two ways: You can access the portal with the same user you use to access the SAP back-end system. The users in the portal and SAP system must either be automatically synchronized (see “Synchronizing SAP System User Data with Corporate LDAP Enterprise Learning: Configuration Guide

676

16

SAP Online Help

15.05.2006

Directory“ in the Administration Guide on the portal) or specifically made consistent with each other each time. Access takes place with an individual user that the author enters when he or she starts online playing. The access type can be set during the back-end configuration for the Authoring Environment in Customizing for the SAP Learning Solution.

Entering Authorizations Access to the root folder must be completely unrestricted, or restricted to users in the Authoring Environment / Content Player. To define authorizations for the root folder: ... ...

1. Start the portal. 2. Choose Content Administration → KM Content → Repositories. 3. Switch to the folder that was created. 4. Choose Folder → File. 5. Choose Settings → Authorizations. You now have three options for setting up authorizations: a. Grant unrestricted authorizations: everybody, full control b. Assign specific authorizations for individual users: Read authorization for Content Player users

Unrestricted access for all users of the Authoring Environment

c. Assign authorizations based on roles: Create two roles (Content Player Users, Authoring Users).

Assign users the respective role.

Assign the roles the appropriate authorization.

Check ... ...

1. In a WebDAV client (such as Windows web folders), check whether you can write and read in the root folder that was created. 2. Also check whether you can read a file created in a Web folder using a normal browser. 3. After the check, delete all files you created for test purposes so that the root folder is empty again. Preparation for Use Before you start to use the CM and authors create content, you should create a structure for the root folder (a hierarchy of directories) in which authors can arrange their content in a meaningful way. You can create this folder structure using portal tools or using the SAP Learning Solution Repository Explorer. Alternative Content Management Systems If you do not want to use SAP’s Content Management, you can use another CMS as long as it supports WebDAV protocol with compliance level 2. For more information about WebDAV Protocol, see www.webdav.org on the Internet. Examples of WebDAV-enabled servers are the Apache Web-Server (version 1.3.23 or above) or Microsoft IIS (version 5.0) Enterprise Learning: Configuration Guide

676

17

SAP Online Help

15.05.2006

In this case, you cannot use the full-text search engine (TREX).

Authentication with the WebDAV server can only take place using “Basic Authentication”.

Using HTTPs to Access Content Management Systems Use If, for security reasons, Content Management is to be accessed from the authoring environment using HTTPs, you must first install the relevant security components in the authoring environment.

Procedure ...

1. Install Java2SDK 1.4.2. 2. Install JCE Unlimited Strength Jurisdiction Policy Files from SUN in Java2SDK. You can download the file at the Internet address java.sun.com/j2se/1.4.2/download.html. This file also contains detailed installation instructions. 3. Download the SAP Cryptolibraries for 630/640 J2EE. 4. Open the SDA file (.zip file). 5. Copy the .jar files it contains to the jre/lib/ext directory of the installed Java2SDK. 6. Start the authoring environment and check that HTTP support has been installed correctly.

Settings for the TREX Search Engine (Optional) Use The use of a TREX search machine in the SAP Learning Solution is optional. If you do not use a search engine, authors cannot search for content. You must also create a new index that is used exclusively by the SAP Learning Solution.

Procedure ...

1. Start the portal. 2. Log on with a user that has administrator authorizations. 3. Choose KM Admin → Index Administration. 4. Choose Create to generate a new index. 5. Enter the following parameters for the new index:

Choose any identifier as the ID. For clarity’s sake, the ID should refer to the appropriate R/3 system. It could, for example, stand for an R/3 system KP7: KP7Index.


676

SAP Online Help Enter TREX

15.05.2006

Search as the Service Category.

Choose Folder to assign a folder to the index. You then come to a selection of all the directories available. Switch to the root folder and assign this to the index.

The URL of the TREX name server and the ID of the newly created index must be used to configure the authoring tool. It is as follows: tcpip://server:port. Server is the name of the TREX name server and Port that of the TCP/IP port, to which the name server is configured.

Configuring the Learning Portal Use Configuration of the Learning Portal comprises the following steps: Adding own pages to the Learning Portal Adjusting style sheets

Including Your Own Pages in the Learning Portal You can change the pages used in the Learning Portal in two ways: Replace entire pages Replace pages in a particular context
