SAP Enterprise Portal – Configuration to make Custom Page as Default Logon Page

SAP Portal Log on page customization is an essential requirement to align SAP Portal’s appearance to enterprise branding. It becomes urgent when SAP Portal is exposed to outer world for business transactions. Customized Portal page provide uniform end user experience while providing secured contents using authentications.
To achieve Portal Log on Page customization, it involves SAP Portal Developer and Basis support for development and configuration activities respectively. This post elaborates more on configuration part (after development and deployment) which involves Config tool and thus require involvement of Basis support. This post will enable Portal developer to do these configurations by their own if they have rights to access these tools.

Platform
Configurations mentioned in this post are applicable for SAP NW 7.0 (2004s) as .par files are used to customize portal branding. SAP NW CE (Composition Environment) uses .war files which makes .par files obsolete. But still there is a provision to import .par files to CE based platforms and reusing old investments.

Prerequisites
It is assumed that you have already customized standard .par file under your custom name. e.g. com.<company-name>.logon.par. This custom project must be deployed to portal system.
J2EE server should be stopped to make configuration changes.

Configuration
After deploying .par file to your Portal system, you need to change default authentication scheme for portal. This is required because portal is still pointing to default authentication scheme. This approach will preserve original configurations and allow you to modify these configurations as per requirement. You can revert back to default settings at any point of time, which follows best practice and is very effective without fearing any loss.
Following are the steps to perform post development customization -
Go to Config tool using following path \usr\sap\<SID>\JC00\j2ee\configtool. Click on change mode button.

Modifying Portal Initial logon page 

This procedure applies for EP 6.0 SP3 and higher.


The logon user interface (UI) of SAP Enterprise Portal is delivered in a portal archive (PAR file) named com.sap.portal.runtime.logon.par which contains all the logon UI's code and resources.

In a deployed portal, the PAR file is located at

<J2EE_Engine_Instance>\j2ee\cluster\server<X>\apps\sap.com\irj\servlet_jsp\irj\root\WEBINF\deployment\pcd.

During initial portal deployment, it is renamed to com.sap.portal.runtime.logon.par.bak.
To customize the logon UI, we recommend the following procedure:

Modify the PAR file containing the logon UIs

1. Make a copy of com.sap.portal.runtime.logon.par.bak and rename it. In this example, it is renamed to my.new.logon.par.
