In our system, I have noticed that after we publish the course in Authoring Environment, it takes about 1-2 minutes before it is available in the backend...
In the course content type field, when you search you should get a list of all the published courses.
The courses are published from Authoring Environment into the Content Management System.
To see the list of Published courses, run Transaction LSO_PUBLISHER

Hi Harshal,
Thanks for reply.
We are in LSO realization phase, LSO Portal is setup. LSO R/3 Configs are ready.
Checked with LSO_PUBLISHER, As we don't have any content published it shows blank.
I think next step will be:
Checking Content Mgmt system and Backend config for Publishing course content to portal using below link by Basis
http://help.sap.com/downloads/pdf/erp2005_ehp_06_en_48_6ba3b078dc4f93e10000000a42189d_frameset.pdf
Simultaneously, we should have content made in AE/Test Authoring tool.
Let me know if I am in right direction towards LSO Adventure

Here is the LSO Architecture...
Here is what we are doing in our current implementation:
What I have specified above are very high level steps... you need to explore each step to ensure that the system works smoothly...
Good Luck
Harshal
BT, yes, you are in the right direction... setup of CMS is the start... there will be lot of other things to configure before you get a full working system... We ran into lot of Java issues... hopefully you will have none...
Thanks a lot Harshal !!!
Again few queries for you
In step 1: As I understood , I need to create a folder in my system for CMS or you tell about CMS placed in server?
In Step 3 : userid and password : Are you telling about Learning Portal userid/password r8 ?
From Step 3 and 5; Do I've to deal with below set of user ids:
1.SAP R/3
2.ESS/Learning Portal
3.New user id of AE to ECC access : no idea : when I open AE it never asks for a separate user id/ password: Currently I am opening AE via a windows batch file named las.bat . AE opens but not sure whether every LSO user opens like this or not
Step 6-9 : I have confidence, can do that
Step 10 No external LMS: so it's not in scope. Do you mean virtual learning in step 10?
Regards,
Niladri
When you are in Authoring Environment (AE) you have to connect to ECC to retrieve CMS location. You need a User ID / role for that.
You also need to create a user id / role in the J2EE server (CMS) so that you can connect to the CMS from AE.
You have to have appropriate roles for all User ID's so that they can access the Content Player and play the course in the portal.
Step 10 is when you want to bring content from external LMS like SkillSoft or Brainshark etc....
When I open AE, I get the following screen:
The Dialog box, asks for the login into ECC to retrieve the info about CMS location.
Once you log in, you can verify the location of the CMS in the Tools > Configuration > Repository tab
you should see the following:
Root folder: you setup this one when you initially install AE. It can be changed when you want.
Server URL: this is the location of CMS that is fetched from ECC
Next, you need to connect to the Repository Explorer via Tools > Repository Explorer
Click on Connect, then you ask asked to log into the CMS and enter credentials. ( I use two different login, you can create the same user ID for login into ECC and CMS in different system and assign appropriate roles too)
Once you connect to the CMS, you can release and publish your changes from local drive to the CMS.
Once the content is available in Master Repository (CMS) you can check it with LSO_PUBLISHER and create the course out of it.
Opening AE through LAS.BAT is fine. This file sets variables and paths to java directory, It open the java application.
I open AE through LAS.bat as well so that should be fine on our side.
Great Harshal for such clarity !!!
Superb Explanation like my College Professor
Would have given a Treat tomorrow if you were in NCR, India !!
I was going through so many blogs/threads/help.sap documentation for last 3-4 months.
Still I was in confusion how to handle, Really Great explanation !!
Actually we have Enterprise Learning Product, (so called LSO higher version).
Any idea how to convert our existing learning materials in .ppt/pdf/.doc/video files to SCORM compliant so that we can directly import them into AE tool.Client doesn't want to invest on 3rd party tool for converting existing materials to SCORM format.
Got some confidence now !!! If you have some document/link other than help.sap/scn blogs that would be of gr8 help.

Niladri
(virtual) Treats accepted... Thanks...
One more thing, when you setup AE for the content developer, make sure that they are assigned proper roles under Tools > Customize > Profile (tab)
Don't know about how to convert SCORM material...
We use Captivate to create the document and we publish the content in SCORM.
Second, the content is created by Content Administrator and not us (functional team)... Cant help much here...
You can use the delivery method 'Static' for non-SCORM/AICC conformant content. It does not provide tracking but for a customer who has a lot of legacy content that does not conform to standards, this is a quick solution (SAP did this when they first went live with LSO - all their ppts were Static.) You can also explore creating a SCORM wrapper for your content - this is outside my expertise but we have had customers who have done it:
