Navigation with Short URLs VS Quick Links
I have implemented some quick links with Short URLs.
Here is the sample link:
http://myServer:50000/irj/portal?NavigationTarget=navurl://b3d6d9ebac16a46574d62757803b05d4
SAP Help Link:
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw2004s/helpdata/en/b3/7b8163404448e7aad7899c0b30313e/content.htm
Then, I come to explore to anothe method to solve the problem, it is "Quick Links", where I define a Quick Link name in iview, said "myQuickLink", then I can call the iview through the portal link/"myQuickLink".
Sample:
http://myServer:50000/irj/portal/myQuickLink
SAP Help Link:
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw2004s/helpdata/en/97/b0ef8b24a64ae884f0ab246e54cae5/content.htm
Initially, I thought the difference between them is we don't have to assign the iview to a role to call a "Quick Link", while we need to do it in "Short URL". But it is not true, both of them need to add the iview to the role , then call them through different url. Right?
Both can solve my problem. But I just want to know the differences between them, i.e. what situation I should use one over another, the performance, and the limitation. The SAP Help does not really go deep in explaning these.
Hope I can get some input from you all. Thanks.
