SAP Netweaver Portal

the favorites concept is a Knowledge management feature where the user can basically store
links,docs etc in a folder and can retrieve his own docs whenever he can...
so the user needs a user specific folder where he can pull only his docs saved
and not somebody else !!
when the user data store is set up Knowledge Management creates a user specific
folder under the below path.
Content Admin > KM Content > "\userhome\\Favorites

in this folder you have "my documents" and the "favorites" folder. the "my documents"
was introduced for BI users when the idea of BEx Web Analyzer was built and there
is a link in the Business Intelligence role calles My Portfolio which is nothing
but docs stored in personal docs. there is another folder called Bex Portfolio which
is the Public documents where everyone can access these documents.


so that was the secret....


coming back to Favorites... if you have issues trying to access the docs stored in
the favorites or unable to delete or add etc make sure the component monitor
shows green for every single repository.... now how do we access the Component
Monitor ??? System Administration -> Monitoring -> Component Monitor

you should be able to resolve it from here but if you still have trouble here is the
ultimate secret....


make sure your eu_role has the right permissions....
pcd:portal_content/every_user/general/eu_role/com.sap.km.home_ws/com.sap.km.hidden/com.sap.km.urlaccess/com.sap.km.docs

this path should have the everyone user group and end user permissions ticked.
