Now my query is:

Hi,

The Top Level tabs will be shown are the different Roles.

So to show any tab at the top level u need to create Roles and ensure the Entry point prperty is Set to Yes.Also you have to assign the required roles to Users in User Administration

And the tabs just below the top level will be worksets.

please check this link for more help

BTW what do you mean by "I am using EP on Abap site"

[Former Member]

I mean to say that I am using WD ABAP application to intigrate with the I-views.

Thanks for your kind reply.

Fine,onceyou create iView based on WD ABAP,you need to create Roles and worksets for the top level tabs to appear.

Did you create the Roles? or do you require anything specific,let me know

I yet not created any Role and workset, if you have something regarding this please provide me.

I log on to the EP as an administrator and create a user here. But when I logon with that user the error comes out that "password is not correct". Then I go to the User Administration and Generate password but still I face the same problem.

Can you suggest what I will do for this.

Also If you have some e-laening sessions for Workset and Role.please provide me it will be highly useful for me.

Thanks again.

Actually message comes out "Authentication failed. Logon with password not allowed ".

First of all, don't bother with worksets. They generally aren't necessary. To build roles, try searching help.sap.com for portal role creation. There are some good links there. When you create the user, make sure no strange error message appear - they sometimes occur is strange places at the top of the screen.

You also need to give some roles to the user, otehrwise they won't see anything useful. I suggest you start with the eu_role.

Thanks Michael.

Hi Michael,

User had been created and I assign the role eu_role(default portal role) to that user.

Now if I want to create different tabs(eg. HOME, COMPANY etc...) and options(drilldown options in links) in that tabs then will I create Roles and workset.

Regarding this I will now go through the help.sap.com.

Thanks again.
