Question about BI to Portal Connectivity

37 Views

Hello,

Our BI system was installed with the following Usage Types:

AS-ABAP

AS-Java

BI-Java

EP

We have one 'corporate' Emterprise Portal with the following Usage Types:

AS-Java

EP

Someone on the BI team was told that a Role is supposed to be delivered with the BI-Java Usage Type:

"pcd:portal_content./com.sap.pct/platform_add_ons/com.sap.ip.bi/Roles/com.sap.ip.bi.bi_showcase (Business Intelligence)"

In the BEx_Web.pfl document, this role is listed in the pre-requisites (step 10) for installing the BEx Web template installer. When we went to the portal to assign the Roles to the Java user, the Business Intellegence Role was not there, so I have two questions:

1. Can we connect our BI system to the Corporate Enterprise Portal directly or do we have to connect to the BI Portal, then to the Corporate Portal?

2. If we can connect directly to the Corporate Enterprise Portal, how do we get the Business Intelligence Role to that system?

Regards,

Janice
