In this article i am trying to focus the integration of SAP MDM i.e. Master Data Management into SAP Portal landscape. You need to load the business package to the portal and configure the connections to the MDM repository and other backend systems. Each iView must be connected to a portal system object derived from the MDM system. An MDM portal system object always references a single, specific MDM repository.
So follwing are the precise setps that one need to perform to get MDM integrated into EP.
Process Flow:
The first thign you have to do is, get the SCA files from SAP market place. If you have S - user id then you can download these files easily, else ask your basis support team.
Following are the pre-requisite:
Pre-requiesites: MDM server : 5.5 SP3 required It is recommended not to change the repository port once configured.
Following are the SCA file names that one can download from SAP Market place. 1) BPMDMTECHN04_0.SCA - Wizards & iview coding required to define MDM repositories. 2) BPMDMAPPLI04_0.SCA - Predesigned roles, iviews, worksets 3) MDMJAVAAPI04_0.SCA Once you are done with the downloading these files, we will deploy them using SDM i.e. Software deployment Manager. Using this GUI one can deploy the components on the portal server. Access this GUI from your portal server by using this url usr’sap’<SID>’JC00’SDM’program’RemoteGui.bat
Import all the files in the same sequence as posted above. Follow the deployment wizard untill deployment succesfull message is displyed.
With this your deployment is finished and you can check if components are ther on your server by accessing portal index.html page. You can access index apge by useing this url http://<;host>:<port>/index.html -> System Information -> Look out for MDM deployed components.
Configurations:
As you have finished the deployment, there are few configuration needed to be set so that you can start using MDM components on Portal.
Lauch Go.bat i.e. Visual Administrator and logon using your administrator credentials.
Go to services -> Connection container -> MDM Factory
Select the Porperties Tab and set the server details and maximum allowed connection i.e. pooling properties.
Now Go to Services -> Monitoring, here you can see the up-to-date information on MDM deployed components. You can also see the errors in the deployments if any.
With this your MDM deployment on portal is completed. In the next article we will see portal side configurations to connect to MDM repositories.
You can see the screen shot document of this process in our forums thred
