Basic Configuration for Collaboration

Basic Configuration for Collaboration :

After installation of the SAP NetWeaver usage type Enterprise Portal (EP), you use the basic configuration to make available Collaboration capabilities in the portal. 
To keep the configuration effort low, SAP provides a minimal configuration, which is limited to the following collaboration services:

·  Send e-mails
·  Create virtual rooms
·  Create tasks (in the universal worklist in the portal)

You can make these services available in the following places in the portal:

·  In the Collaboration menu of the Collaboration Launch Pad (CLP) and in the room member list
·  In the context menu for user names
·  On the user interface of the User Details iView (links for launching services)
Optional: Complete or Company-Specific Basic Configuration

If required, you can add services for real-time collaboration – instant messaging and application sharing – and calendar functions. In addition, you can put together new command groups. For all services that are contained in the command groups, you must complete the required basic configuration.

The minimal basic configuration for Collaboration comprises the following activities:
Configuration Step

Description

                                                                                                                                                                                                             
By assigning the corresponding portal roles, you give portal users permission to administrate or use Collaboration functions.
To perform the basic configuration, you require the following portal roles:
·  Content Administration
·  System Administration
To make the minimal grouping of services available to users (as menu items or links), you activate the corresponding command groups.
In the Tools area in the portal header, you activate the Collaboration Link, which is used to start the CLP in the masthead.
To allow launching of rooms through links (URLs), you specify the properties of the respective backend system.
To make the titles and subtitles of the iViews available in rooms and room parts, you import the banner documents supplied by SAP.
With these configuration steps, you make available the e-mail functions of the groupware used in your company.
