Self registration, problem

[Former Member]

Hi experts,

I'm traiying to implement self regitration with company approval, I'm using EP 7.0 SP 10, I have configured two Frameworks (Anonymous, Authenticated) and are working fine, I have followed instructions found on http://help.sap.com to configure self registation with approval, BUT (there is always one), when an user self regists this user can access collaboration link in the tool bar and begin to chat, while his user is being approved or not.

If I use the self registration link the user is in waiting for approval state, but he is able to see the masthead, collaboration link, favorite and search tool, with no menú, because he is an authenticated user, how can I stop this? I want to display to these users a message like No portal roles are assigned for this user or a custom one.

Thanks in advance, any help will be apreciated and rewarded.

You could make a Welcome role that contains a page and in there is an iView that displays a message if the user has no roles assigned. If they do have any roles, then put some sort of generic "welcome to the portal" type content.

Give this role to the Authenticated users group.

Hi Michael thanks for your promt reply,

I think I didn't explained myself right, this portal have an anonymous access content configured an authenticated content and a self regist option activated (companies with approval). So this way we have, unauthenticated customers, authenticated customers and corporate users accesing portal.

The unauthenticated customers could self regist at anytime, but only able to see authenticated content when users are approved by administrator.

I don't know how to tell this users that are waiting for approval that they cannot access private content of the portal util they are approved.

Because we're using instant messaging for all authenticated users, when this users self regist they can chat while their users are being approved, this is exactlly what we don't want, how can I avoid this?.

And thanks again,

Hi RR

Believe me, I understand the problem! The authenticated users also includes those who haven't been approved. The only way round this is to have a special desktop for those who haven't been approved and this can only be done by making a new group of "fully approved" users, who get the desktop with the tool area etc, and then make the authenticated users get the desktop without the tool area.

Hi Ramien,

Assign a new portal desktop to the Authenticated user group and remove the IViews Tool Area from it.

If you want user to see a page displaying a message create a role and assign it to the Authenticated group and in this role you can add a page with a iView with a message

Do Reward points if it helps
