Implementation and Administration Guide for the SAS^® Information Delivery Portal

This Implementation and Administration Guide provides instructions for fully implementing the SAS Information Delivery Portal to meet the unique needs of your organization. The guide tells how to:

• Set up portal security, including registration of individual users, dividing users into groups, and placing access controls on portal content.

• Make your organization's SAS-generated content available from the portal, including SAS tables, ad hoc reports, publication channels, warehouse data, and dynamic webEIS documents.

• Add other types of content to the portal, including links to internal or external web addresses, syndicated content from information providers, and documents.

• Create your own presentations of data to display in the portal through the use of widgets.

• Develop custom applications that leverage the portal's services, content, and security features.

• Localize the portal to use the appropriate language for the user audience.

• Change the appearance of the portal, including color schemes, logos, images, and other cosmetic features.

This guide will be expanded and modified on an ongoing basis to reflect new information gained from the implementation experiences of SAS customers.
