Federation Portal Remote Role Assignment

Former Member

Hi,

We have implemented Federation Setup between 3 portals in our landscape.

Portal 1 - EP 7.0 SP15 (Producer)

Portal 2 - EP 7.0 SP15 (Consumer)

Portal 3 - EP 7.0 SP20 (Producer)

Our requirement is to have remote role assignment in Consumer portal. This works fine with except one issue. The role that is assigned as a remote one in consumer for a user requires the role assignment in producer as well for the same user. Else the tabs are not visible.

Is it mandatory in federation Remote role setup that the roles need to be assigned in both Producer and Consumer? If not I am having an issue.

Thanks,

Nagarajan.

Hi,

I don't believe that you need to assign the user to the roles in both producer and consumer, but you do need to make certain permission settings. Refer to the section "Permissions to Assign on the Producer Portal Before or After Remote Role Assignment is Performed" in the following: http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw70/helpdata/en/43/2236fc0b413fe1e10000000a11466f/content.htm

Hope this helps,

Thanks for the reply.

I checked the details on the producer and found that the permissions are done as per the document.

1) Role has the User amdin permission with role assigner check nox enabled.

2) Permissions and actions for pcd_service user are defined as per the doc.

3) Have everyone Read and End user access for the whole Security zones folder in the producer.

Strange but no luck.

If you unassign the user the role in the producer what error messages do you get? Have you checked the default trace file on the producer system in this scenario?

I do not get any errors. Just simply do not see the tab in the Consumer portal.
