Activating the Complete Grouping of Collaboration Services 

Use

To make collaboration services available, SAP delivers predefined command groups. The command groups contains commands for launching the services. The applications that provide collaboration services, are represented by configuration objects (types). To make available the required services as menu items or links in the applications in question, you must assign the corresponding command group to each of the following types.

Type	Application (iView)	Launch of Services
clpType	Collaboration Launch Pad (CLP) or Room Member List	Menu items in the Collaboration menu
userType	Any application that displays users with the context menu	Menu item in the context menu
userDetailsType	User Details iView	Links on the iView user interface

The complete grouping for collaboration services is intended for the basic configuration of the Collaboration capabilities in the Enabling User Collaboration scenario.

Prerequisites

The Content Administration portal role is assigned to your user.

Procedure

...

       1.      In the portal, choose Content Administration ® Collaboration Content ® Collaboration Launch Pad Administration ® Command Group.

For the complete basic configuration of collaboration services, the following command groups are relevant:

¡        clpGroup

¡        userGroup

¡        userDetailsGroup

These groups contain the complete range of commands for launching collaboration services.

Copy the existing command groups to a new namespace. In this way, you prevent any changes to the command groups in the SAP namespace being overwritten during the next system upgrade.

       2.      Below Collaboration Launch Pad Administration (see path specified in step one) choose the class Type.

       3.      One after another, call up the types listed below in editing mode and assign the corresponding command group to each one in the contextmenu_commandgroup field:

The command groups delivered by SAP are listed below. If you have copied these command groups, the corresponding names of the copies apply instead.

Type	Command group for the complete basic configuration
clpType	clpGroup
userType	userGroup
userdetailsType	userDetailsGroup

Result

The Collaboration menu, the context menu for user names, and the user interface of the User Details iView provide the assigned services for collaboration between portal users.
