Configuration of the Who's Who iView

Use

By configuring the Who's Who iView , you can influence the search for users and the display of the results list.

Configuration objects

The following configuration objects delivered by SAP are relevant for configuring the Who's Who iView:

Indexable UME properties
Path in the portal: System Administration → System Configuration → Knowledge Management → Content Management → Global Services → Property Metadata → Properties

In the default setting, the following UME properties are flagged as indexable:
- displayname (user's first and last name)
- uniquename (user ID)
- email (user's e-mail address)
  Note
  You can use indexable UME properties as a search criterion in the Who's Who iView. To define a UME property (technical name begins with ume) as a search criterion, call up the UME property for editing and select the Indexable flag.
Layout sets
Path in the portal: System Administration → System Configuration → Knowledge Management → Content Management → User Interface → Settings → Layout Sets
- WhoIsWhoLayoutSet
  Determines the layout of the wide iView variant.
- WhoIsWhoNarrowLayoutSet
  Determines the layout of the narrow iView variant.
  
  Note
  Each layout set references a corresponding object in the Collection List Renderer Settings.
Collection list renderer settings
Path in the portal: System Administration → System Configuration → Knowledge Management → Content Management → User Interface → Settings → Collection Renderer Settings → Collection List Renderer Settings
- WhoIsWhoListRendererSettings
  Definition of the results list for the wide iView variant, for example, availability status icon, user name with context menu , user ID, telephone number.
- WhoIsWhoNarrowListRendererSettings
  Definition of the results list for the narrow iView variant, for example, availability status icon and user name with context menu.
  
  You define the columns of the results list in the Displayed Properties field for the list renderers in question. In the default setting, the following metadata is used (syntax: <namespace alias>:<property ID>)
  - col:peopleResource (icon, user name, and context menu)
  - ume:uniquename (user ID)
  - ume:telephone (user's telephone number)

Features

Function	Description
Creating the UME index	In the portal, choose System Administration → System Configuration → Knowledge Management → Index Administration. Choose Create. Enter the following index properties: ID: ume This ID is required because it is already entered in the properties of the Who's Who iView. If you assign a different ID; you must also change the entry in the iView properties. Service: Trex Search To proceed, choose Create Index. Choose Data Sources. Choose Add... Click ume. (The path specified is now Root > ume.) Select users. (The path specified is now Root > ume > users.) Choose Save. Make sure that the TREX search index is set exclusively for UME users, as described in step 8. For security reasons, you should not create the search index for any other UME data sources, for example, UME groups. In this way, you exclude the possibility of displaying sensitive data, such as the member groups of private rooms.
Optional: Defining the columns in the results list	The columns in the results list are defined in the Collection List Renderer Settings (see above). To change the definition of the results list, you can enter further UME properties in the Displayed Properties field of the List Renderer in question or delete existing entries there. The list of entries is separated with commas.
Optional: Editing the iView properties	See Who's Who iView .
