There are many things developers and administrators must consider when designing a successful portal application, including how content will be published, how to integrate custom developments, and how to connect to external systems. This book enables you to meet all of these requirements for creating applications for SAP NetWeaver Portal and publishing portal content.
The book first provides a step-by-step introduction to roles, worksets, pages, and iViews. From there it guides you through all essential implementation phases, including user administration, connecting external systems using single sign-on, layout of externally facing portals, and ultimately transporting data to your live system. Two detailed workshops provide hands-on examples showing you exactly how to customize portal components and even create new ones.
