Outlook Web Access (OWA) and SAP Portal

[Former Member]

Hello,

we have integrated the Outlook Web Access (OWA) into the SAP Portal. The problem that we have is that when you click on 'Log off' in the OWA you are automatically also logged off the portal.

Is there a way to avoid that the 'Log off'-Button of the OWA is no longer displayed?

Bye,

Timo

Hi,

I believe you'll have to modify the corresponding HTML file on your Exchange Server to exclude the Logoff Button.

Hello,

thanks for your reply. Well, this would be a senseful solution, but in the end we are accessing the OWA over the SAP portal but also directly. This means for calling OWA directly we need the page with the 'Log off' button but when it is integrated into the SAP portal the button needs to be disabled.

Is this possible on the exchange server?

Maybe you can have variant of the OWA page which is invoked with a different URL that drops the logoff button?

Hi,

maybe you can do a little trick on the HTML page:

1. Display it as an URL iView

2. Instead of deleting the button in the HTML, take a look at the HTML code, the CSS is .nbButton. Maybe you can change this for the logoff Button (eg: to .logoffButton, with the same properties as .nbButton)

3. In the portal, overwrite the logoffButton CSS so, that visibility = false. Because the portal CSS will only be used in the portal, you can maintain just 1 version of the OWA HTML file and still have the ability to "hide" the logoff Button.
