What is standard initial room role in SAP EP-PCT - Portal Content?


SAP Term: standard initial room role

  • Component: EP-PCT

  • Component Name: Portal Content

  • Description: If a user who is not assigned to an initial room role is invited to a room for the first time, the system uses the standard initial room role as a template to create the user-specific role for this user. Therefore, you do not have to assign an initial room role to all portal users, but only to those users who require authorization to create rooms.

  • Key Concepts: 
    Standard Initial Room Role is a feature of the SAP Enterprise Portal Content (EP-PCT) component. It is a predefined role that is assigned to all users when they first enter a room in the portal. This role grants users access to basic functions such as viewing content, creating content, and participating in discussions. 
    
    How to use it: 
    The Standard Initial Room Role can be used to control access to certain features within a room. For example, if you want to restrict users from creating content, you can assign them the Standard Initial Room Role and then disable the “Create Content” permission. This will prevent users from creating content in the room. 
    
    Tips & Tricks: 
    You can customize the Standard Initial Room Role by adding or removing permissions. This allows you to tailor the role to your specific needs. For example, if you want to allow users to create content but not delete it, you can add the “Create Content” permission but remove the “Delete Content” permission.
