What is that which takes in the making of a successful SAP NetWeaver Implementation? The required things for successful SAP NetWeaver Implementation would be Usable screens, security, landing pages, rich user experience, stable server landscape etc...
The time for loading the home page or landing page is a major factor that your end users can consider to judge the performance of NetWeaver Portal . The navigation clicks are another important factor which is the number of links that are used to open the required page or an application. Almost every website takes these two factors into consideration.Here comes the role of usability specialist who takes care that the Netweaver has both these factors in favour. Still, mosty 3rd party design firm is used to out sources design documents and wire-frames of the portal page structure.
One other mistake which a portal consultant generally tends to over look is the use of PAM (Product Availability Matrix), which is the most handy tool that helps in hassel free implementation. Few of its features are that it list outs major version dependencies, supported and unsupported features and SP level informations. With the use of PAM, Its advisable to determine the complexity and understand scope of implementation .
Some major facts on NetWeaver Portal Implementation:
Be sure that the homepage images are not heavy.
Use of static pages which consume fewer resources in case you have SSO implemented.
Horizontal scroll bars are best avoided. Minimizing of scrolling effects and scroll bars should be done.
User navigation should be made easy with fewer links.
Make use of cache for improving page load time and performance .
To make it easy for users you can enable help, forgot password links on homepage..
Do not use KM object rendering on homepage whenever possible.
Ensure that server is load balanced and there are properly sized mirror nodes. You can increase virtual memory whenever you have good a RAM.
Excessive use of delta links that navigates deeper in hierarchy to be avoided. Portal renders each object by navigation node. More is the page load time when there are more number of nodes.
While using KM for document management and storage, proper taxonomy should be used. Never stuff documents in a single folder . not more than 50 documents are recommended in one folder.
For the iViews that are relatively slow It is recommended to have iView isolation method as “URL” . This isolation method decreases the usage of portal application thread and eliminates the page load errors .
Hoping that this post would be of some use for smooth and error free end-to-end SAP NetWeaver Portal implementation.
