Assigning End-User Permission to Producer
Objects and Content
Applicable to: remote role assignment, remote delta link, WSRP application sharing
Use
End-user permission enables business users to run content at runtime. Just as end users require end-user permission to run local content on your portal, they also need end-user permission for local content originating from a remote producer.
This topic describes when to assign end-user permission to a producer object and the remote-based local content on the consumer portal.
Prerequisites
● You have authorization to access the main Permission Editor. (Not mandatory for system administrators who have authorization to access the Manage My Producers screen.)
● You have owner administrator permission.
● You have consumed remote content from a producer portal.
Procedure
In the Permission Editor, assign end-user permission as follows:
Content usage mode |
End-user permission to producer object on consumer |
End-user permission to localized content on consumer |
Remote role assignment |
Yes |
(not applicable)1 |
Remote delta link |
Yes |
Yes2 |
WSRP application sharing |
Yes |
Yes3 |
1 No local content is created on the consumer during remote role assignment.
2 Permission is assigned to remote-based local iViews, pages, worksets and roles on the consumer.
3 Permission is assigned to proxy-to-portlet iViews on the consumer.
In addition to the end-user permission assigned to remote-based local content on the consumer, the system administrator on the producer must also assign end-user permissionto the remote content on the producer. End users also require permission to run the portal components on which remote iViews and pages are based; these portal components are located in security zones on the producer. For more information, see the following:
§ Exposing Roles on the Producer for 'Remote Role Assignment' Usage
§ Exposing Content on the Producer for 'Remote Delta Link' Usage
§ Exposing WSRP iViews on the Producer for NetWeaver Consumers
§ Exposing WSRP iViews on the Producer for Non-SAP Consumers
If an iView on the producer uses a system object to enable access to a backend system, the system administrator on the producer must assign end-user permission to consumer-based business users in these system objects.
