How to create Roles in UME (ABAP+JAVA stack)

[former_member184114]

Hi,

I have created roles earlier on JAVA stack alone. However, this time I am working on JAVA+ABAP stack. When I am trying to create role in UME, I am getting only two tabs:

General Information

Assigned Groups

I am not getting Assinged Actions tab here.How do I assing actions ?

Can any one please help me in creating roles in ABAP+JAVA stack.

That would be a great help!

Procedure is same

please check role you have if it is delegated user you can only view

http://host:port/useradmin

login with user having enough authorisation to create role

I have used the same link. However, the user is J2EE_ADMIN. I think there is some authorizations problem for this user. But whe I used Administrator user, its saying that user authentication failed

I learnt on this forum that when its ABAP+JAVA stack we need to use J2EE_ADMIN user only.

Kindly suggest me.

Hi,

You have to use j2ee_admin for abap+java systems.

Administrator is only for stand alone java systems.

Hi Samrat,

I have done it even the result is same. While creating user also in UME database by user J2EE_ADMIN, it giving the following error:

An error occurred; contact your system administrator

Though I have modified this user account and added all the available roles in UME Database.

I learnt that for ABAP+JAVA system, we need to create some role in PFCG and attatch the same in UME. But how it is done I dont know.

Could you please confirm the same and if yes how it done?

Hi Faisal,

ABAP is the master in a dual-stack installation. I think you have to be an ABAP admin (forgot the role name) before you can be a J2EE_ADMIN. Look at these links:

ABAP as the UME

Remember that ABAP Roles = Java Groups

If you follow the links, I am sure you will be able to get it working. Good luck!

Hi John,

Thanks alot for your links which are very helpful. However, when I am trying to assign groups (roles in R3) and accessing the Java application, it is showing blank screen. I do remember we had grouped

actions in a role and assigned it to the user. However, I am not at all getting that oppurunity to search for actions!

Kindly suggest me to create roles (ABAP+JAVA stack) asap.

HI Faisal,

When ABAP is the UME, you can only edit users / groups that are J2EE only. Any group that is defined in ABAP is read-only for the Java Server to prevent conflicts (there is no synchronization) and has to be changed in ABAP.

Please take a look at this link, which has a great graphic describing this.

http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04s/helpdata/en/7c/36dcd59865b246b993c471199ba37a/content.htm

So, if the Java group was created in ABAP, the ABAP user has to have the ABAP role assigned to him, so that he is in the group on the Java server. make sense? The graphic in the link above really explains it well I think.

If you a new / custom Java group (not in ABAP) then you should be able to assign users to it from the Java server.
