how authentication and authorization works in webdynpro for abap and portal

[Former Member]

Hi Experts,

I have to create an webdynpro abap application for portal which will update the user information in the backend HR standard table.

The SSO (certificate)setup is already doen between portal and backend sap system . Do I need to pass the portal userID to the webDynpro ABAP application, via IView created to update the table. OR SSO will take care itself.

Thanks and regards,

Ajay

Dear Ajay

If SSO is configured as you have mentioned, then all is ok and you don't need do pass the user ID.

It will be done automatically.

Just try for yourself - create a simple WD ABAP and put it inside an iView.

Then have this WD to write the SY-UNAME on the screen.

That way you will confirm what I'm saying

Kind Regards
