Purpose
"Portal" or "Portal Platform" or "SAP Enterprise Portal"
The portal offers a
single point of access to SAP and non-SAP information sources, enterprise
applications, information repositories, databases and services in and outside
your organization—all integrated into a single user experience. It
provides you the tools to manage this knowledge, to analyze and interrelate
it, and to share and collaborate on the basis of it.
With its role-based
content, and personalization features, the portal enables users—from
employees and customers to partners and suppliers—to focus exclusively
on data relevant to daily decision-making processes.
Integration
The portal is the
front-end component for SAP NetWeaver—the comprehensive integration and
application platform that facilitates the alignment of people, information,
and business processes across organizational and technical
boundaries.
