Use of SAP Enterprise Portal

What is the use of SAP Netweaver Portal?

End users with multiple business responsibilities must navigate diverse applications from diverse vendors to get their jobs done.

Through a SAP Enterprise portal, an end user can expect to see a complete business picture at a glance, created from multiple data sources, and integrated with many operational applications.

An Enterprise Portal provides:

A single point of access via web browser to applications, content, and services.

A personalized, role-based user interface, customizable to individual needs.

Simple maintenance based on an open and flexible system with no additional client software.

Secure access from anywhere

SAP Enterprise Portal performs the following:

1. Portal-infrastructure management. SAP Enterprise Portal provides a personalized, secure interface that can be accessed through a wide range of devices. It unifies enterprise applications, information, and processes from both SAP and non-SAP sources into a coherent, role-based portal experience. It supports both UNIX and Microsoft Windows servers and is localized to support more than 20 languages.

2. Collaboration . SAP Enterprise Portal provides collaboration rooms and real-time collaboration tools to allow teams and work groups to share information, ideas, and their work in a highly productive manner. Shared e-mail, calendars, threaded discussions, and document stores are managed by local administrators, who can independently update memberships and access rights.

3. Knowledge management . SAP Enterprise Portal provides a single point of access to unstructured content stored in third-party repositories and SAP content-management systems. It also enables userfriendly and flexible document authoring and publishing, intelligent classification and subscription, robust version management, and powerful search and navigation. It also provides an open framework for creating and managing document-based and filebased applications, content, and user services.
