ESS implementation

37 Views

Hello all,

I'd like to implement ESS. I'm using Portal based on NetWeaver 2004s and ECC 6.0 systems.

Q1.

When I access ESS Business Package's download area from portal content portfolio, it shows 10 Support Packages.(BPERP5ESSnn_0-10003288.SCA)

I'd like to apply the latest one. Do I need to apply all SPs like ABAP? Or only SP10 is enough?

Edit1:

-> I found the answer by myself.

According to Note #761266, the Java Support Packages (SPs) are full patches. So I believe SP10 is good enough.

Q2.

How can I access above ESS Business Package's download area from top of Service Marketplace?

I could access by searching "BP ERP" but I'd like to know the menu path.

Q3.

According to ECC 6.0 SR2 Master Guide, it says as follows:

-


3.4.4.6 Instance VI: Installation Sequence SAP Enterprise Portal (XSS) - System

VIa Install the SAP NetWeaver 2004s Usage Types AS JAVA, EP and BI-JAVA

(optional), as well as the JAVA Web Component of the product instance SAP

XSS (SELF-SERVICES) of SAP ERP 2005, as described in step 1 in Section

3.4.1 - Installation Sequence for Minimal System Landscape.

VIb Install the required Business Packages (SAP ERP 2005 - Portal Content), as

described in step 4 in Section 3.4.1 - Installation Sequence for Minimal System

Landscape.

What does "JAVA Web Component" mean? What shoud I install?

I found out I need to download "SAP ESS 600" and "SAP PCUI_GP" from the following wiki:

https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/sdn/wiki?path=/pages/viewpage.action?pageId=31476

In this wiki, they are called as "Web Dynpro Development Components".

Are they same meanings?

Q4.

For SP10, I found two versions of "SAP ESS 600" in Service Marketplace as follows:

SAPESS10_0-20000512.SCA SAP ESS 600 Support Package 10

SAPESS10P_7-20000512.SCA Patch for SAP ESS 600 Support Package 10

Do I have to download and apply both of them?

I had already downloaded and applied only SAPESS10P_7-20000512.SCA.

But I'm not sure I was right.

Edit2:

-> Same as Q1. I found the answer by myself.

I think SP10 is good enough.

Q5.

The above wiki it also says as follows:

<< snip >>

Deploy

You deploy all the files in SDM. Start by deploying the SAP_PCUI_GP_600. Then you can deploy the rest in any order you want.

<< snip end>>

Is the order of deploying ESS and PCUI_GP important?

Is that mentioned in any documents? I read ECC 6.0 Master Guide and help portal, but I could not find.

I had already deployed ESS and PCUI_GP in the same queue. It's true that it ended with warnings...

I'm not sure I have to re-deploy them.

Sorry to so many questions. I'm really confusing now.

Edit3:

I've found the answer to Q1 and Q4.

Any comments related Q2, Q3 and Q5 would be appreciated.

Thanks in advance,

Ikue
