Notice management

Former Member

Hi,

Is it possible to provide notice management feature in SAP enterprise portal. We have a requirement to publish a notice (a pop up message) as soon as the portal users login in. Can this be configured in the portal. This may not be required all the time but may be needed when some important notification has to be published to the portal users sometimes.

Thanks & Regards,

Suresh

Hi,

you can use an inVisible iView on your Portal-Startpage and have it open a popup with a document on certain conditions.

We use a similar mechanism with a customized news-iView we build for a customer.

You simply create news-form with the XML-Forms editor (date, title and content) should be enough. Then your authors write a note and store it in the km.

Your Dynpage (or else) can then use KM-API to check whether new (= not read by actual user) notes are available and open the /km/docs/ servlet with the RID of that document. Once the popup is opened, the doc is automatically marked as "read by" the user, so they won't see the same note twice ...

Thanks Jan for your response. We have a requirement to show the pop-up iView whenever the user logs in and it should be controlled only by the admin. What I mean is only the admin can control the pop-up iView. In this scenario do we need to use KM API and how can the pop-up iView be controlled by the admin.

Thanks & Regards,

Hi Suresh,

You can refer to blog by Prakash singh

and https://weblogs.sdn.sap.com/pub/wlg/1587. [original link is broken] [original link is broken]

Here you can create different iviews to publish,Display popup.Therefore you can assign publish popup to a roleprovided only for the administrator and display to rest of the users.It will solve your problem.

Hi Radhika,

Thanks for your response. I hope I have awarded the points to you. Just another clarification. The blob talks about publishing a pop-up to the already logged in users. We have a requirement to pop-up a message as soon as the user logs into the portal. Can this implementation be tweaked for this requirement.

Also is there any standard feature in SAP EP for publishing messages as soon as the user logs into the portal.

Thanks & Regards,

Suresh
