Distorted Home Page Layout

[Former Member]

SRM 5.0; R/3 46C; Classic

Hello everyone,

I was recently creating new composite roles and testing them out. Apparently when I log on using a composite role ID, the home page has a distorted(?) layout where the menus in the center are drill down menus and there are two images (one of a gear and another one of words BUY NOW) way to the right and left. I am used to seeing a home page with a picture of a shopping cart the logo - my SAP Supplier Relationship Management.

Does anyone have any idea why the home page is distorted? The task menu pane on the left is fine - only the home page is messed up.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you.

Hi Jay

I think what you are referring to is the EMP layout and the PRO layout. The one with the picture of a shopping cart is the employee (EMP) layout. I believe what you are see as distorted is the professional (PRO) layout.

If you wish to only use the EMP you can modify the BBPGLOBAL 650 template in Internet Service BBPSTART. You should see some code like the following:

<i>`

if(USER_ROLE.value == "P");

include (~service="bbpstart", ~name="bbpglobal_650_PRO.html");

else;

include (~service="bbpstart", ~name="bbpglobal_650_EMP.html")

end;

`</i>

Change it to the following and your problem should be solved.

<i><!--

`

if(USER_ROLE.value == "P");

include (~service="bbpstart", ~name="bbpglobal_650_PRO.html");

else;

include (~service="bbpstart", ~name="bbpglobal_650_EMP.html")

end;

`

-->

`

include (~service="bbpstart", ~name="bbpglobal_650_EMP.html")

`</i>

Hope this helps...

Hi all,

is it possible to handle this via a role (TAC PFCG) instead of changing the template?

Hi Jay

Have you check the role Menu in PFCG transcation.

Is It that while creatin g a Z compostire role you have added some another role ???

Check the composite role in Tcode PFCG --> Menu (In Change Mode)

see if you can get some clue.

Hi Nimish,

I think I know where the problem is - we upgraded from EBP 3.5 to SRM 5.0. And we are trying to update the old roles with new transactions (like bbpsc02). I am thinking that because the old EBP 3.5 were not integrated ITS server that the templates need to be republished? I just can't seem to figure out exactly why everything works except the initial screen after the log on.

Thanks,

Jay

HI Jay

In SRM 5.0 ITS is inttegrated and home page comes from BBPGLOBAL

Just chk the template in BBPGLobal and republished the same.

Dont use the old roles. use SAP_BBP_STAL_EMployee / Manager etc.
