RWD Add-on for Help Launch pad

[Former Member]

Hi All,

I am in the process of configuring RWD uperform 4.4. For enabling the help launch pad, is it required to implement both the RWD add-on and abap transport in the sap system.

I believe in the previous versions, only abap transport was provided.

Kindly some one let me know the exact purpose of the RWD add-on and abap transport for help launch pad.

Hi Saba,

You can use either.

Looking at the Admin guide

The ANCILE Help Launchpad product consists of two distinct pieces:

 An SAP ABAP transport

 A stay-on-top control that is a Microsoft® Windows executable (rwdhlp.exe)

The ABAP code determines where in the application the user is located, packages the

appropriate URL, and calls the stay-on-top control. To install the ABAP add-on to

enable Help Launchpad, refer to the SAP documentation on how to install an ABAP

add-on or refer to SAP note 848560.

The Windows executable (rwdhlp.exe) provides the browser size, position, and stayon-

top function. The executable file must be accessible to everyone who is going to

use the online help functionality through SAP. This executable is not used in the

development of help files or in uploading them into SAP. The executable may be

installed on a Microsoft Windows network server that is universally accessible, or

locally on all usersu2019 computers.

Hi Saba,

You can get the installation file for HLP from the following path:

-> Service.sap.com/swdc

-> Installations and Upgrades

-> Browse our Download Catalog

-> SAP Education Products

-> SAP PRODUCTIVITY PAK BY Ancile

-> SAP PRODUCTIVITY PAK 4.3 (or 4.4)

-> Installation

-> Downloads

-> 51039413

-> The Help LaunchPad transports or .pat files can be

downloaded within this package.

You can also get the help document for HLP within this package.

which tells you which pat files to use for your system.

Kind Regards,

Hi Matthew,

I am new to SPP Help Launchpad, I have downloaded the installation files, what i need is file for system ECC 6.0 direct install for 4.4, i have installed SPP 4.3 server before but have not yet install the help launchpad, now the SPP 4.3 is upgraded to SPP 4.3. And the help launchpad is new to install. What i get from the download package, it contains:

>Installation Files>700

>>4400_700_Direct

>>>E6D0020168204_0000038.PAT <------- I think this is what i need to use for the system

>>4400_700_fr_4300_4100_4000_3000

>>>E6D0020168204_0000039.PAT

>>ex_620_640_to_700_for_4400

>>>E6D0020168204_0000040.PAT

>>K900040.E6D

>>R900040.E6D

But I have no idea of importing / transporting to the SAP system.

I saw previously posts to transport help launchpad with SAINT, but it needs CAR/SAR files, so how can i transport the .pat file?

Can you give me more instructions on that?

Many thanks.
