Integrating Applications in the
Portal 
Before you begin to define the new views StartView and TargetView of the Web Dynpro components, you must go to your portal as system administrator or as content administrator and integrate the applications specified in this example.
The individual steps that need to be taken to use Web Dynpro applications in the portal are explained below. To do this, you need to create the corresponding iViews, pages, role and possibly user.
The Web Dynpro applications can only run in the portal if you created a separate iView for each Web Dynpro application. Each of these iViews is then added to a page. The pages are assigned to a role, which in turn is assigned to one or more users.
Prerequisites
To integrate the Web Dynpro applications to the portal, you must be familiar with both system and content administration in the portal.
Process Flow
...
1.
Before you can create the corresponding
iViews etc., you must define the system, in this case the J2EE Engine, on
which the Web Dynpro applications are run.
For a detailed description of the procedure for creating a system, see
Running a Web
Dynpro Application in SAP Enterprise Portal.
2.
For each Web Dynpro
application you create a Web Dynpro-based iView that calls the Web Dynpro
applications StartPageNavigationand TargetPageNavigation with a URL at runtime.
For a description of how to create the iViews, see the SAP Library under

3.
You create a page
in which you insert the first Web Dynpro-based iView that calls the start
application. Creation of a page in the portal is described in the SAP Library

4.
You create another
page in which you insert the second Web Dynpro-based iView that calls the
target application.

5.
You define a role
and assign the pages you created to this role.

Worksets.
6.
This role is assigned to either an
existing or a new user for later testing and execution of navigation between
the two Web Dynpro applications.
You can find out how to assign a role to a user in the SAP Library under
SAP NetWeaver ® People Integration ® SAP Enterprise Portal
Documentation ® Administration Guide ® Content Administration ® Roles and Worksets ® Assigning Roles to Users.
To display the role, you must then refresh SAP Enterprise Portal or create a
separate user to which you assign this role exclusively. To create a new user,
navigate in the top-level navigation to User Administration and create the new
user as described in the SAP Library under
SAP NetWeaver ® Security ® Identity Management ® User Management Engine ® User Management Administration
Console.
Then assign the role to the new user. You can find out how to assign a role to
a user in the SAP Library under
SAP NetWeaver ® People Integration ® SAP Enterprise Portal
Documentation ® Administration Guide ® Content Administration ® Roles and Worksets ® Assigning Roles to Users.
After defining the corresponding parts and integrating the Web Dynpro applications, go back to the SAP NetWeaver Developer Studio.
Only test the Web Dynpro applications after you have developed the views of the Web Dynpro applications and deployed the Web Dynpro project to the J2EE Engine.
