You could see above that we have uploaded Z_SAP_MANAGER_MSS_SR_NWBC_3 which is not composite role - we are not able to find composite role for MSS hence we had uploaded single role only. same single role is assigned to user in backend.
Role upload view from System admin - kindly confirm if we are okay till here
Hi,
You don't need to upload all single role in portal. Upload only z copy of composite role SAP_MANAGER_MSS_NWBC_3 i.e. ZSAP_MANAGER_MSS_NWBC_3. Do let me know what all customizations have you done in z rolee for SAP_MANAGER_MSS_NWBC_3?
Post role upload, what is the warning message displayed in log? By default when you upload standard role i n to portal, you will find error in error logs for missing system alias such as SAP_EREC_TalentManagement , SAP_ECC_Financials .. Either these system alias should be created or in PFCG tcode when you create custom copy of SAP_MANAGER_MSS_NWBC_3 replace this alias with alias pointing to back end client.
Only for ZSAP_MANAGER_MSS_NWBC_3 composite role uploaded in portal, share the screen-shot after you open the portal role. Wanted to check the menu that you are able to see post role upload in portal (workset and pages view).
Upload the composite role and not the single role. IN PFCG when you open the role, in target system you will find alias such as SAP_EREC_TalentManagement and SAP_ECC_Financials. When you create custom copy of composite role, ensure that these aliases are replaced with custom alias pointing to your back-end.

Hi ALL,
My self resolved this issue.

Navya,
Sorry - Correcting myself now - Yes we do have composite roles SAP_MANAGER_MSS_NWBC_3 and long back when we tried copying it and uploaded it on portal it was throwing same error what you have mentioned.
Today also, I tried uploading it and got same error -
Please can you advice, where exactly we need to change the system alias.
Well, this is for MSS issue and if we go with PFCG roles then need to fix this issue as well.
Thanks a ton for all support.
Regards
Shipra
Sorry Navya - I would like to correct myself here - We had already uploaded MSS composite role and we can successfully launch all the services with PFCG roles of MSS.
Look of MSS screen is as below:
So again my concern remains the same - As I have stated above that, whatever change I do in launchpad in backend that does not reflect on portal either for MSS or ESS though I can control the visibility from portal end as well.
And if I assign standard portal roles to user, my all launchpad changes appears over portal.
Many thanks for you all support.

Shipra
HI Navya,
Please correct if my understanding is wrong - So far I have learnt from your inputs and other blogs that EHP7 onwards, we are uploading PFGC roles and assigning the same role to user on portal and backend as well.
until EHP 7, we used to assign standard portal roles provided by SAP to User on portal.
Is that right ?
Now, first foremost thing I want to know please, How Launchpad customization is linked to PFCG roles - Are it actually linked or not. After doing numerous testing, I could see No Launchpad customization reflects if PFCG role is assigned to user.
So please, let me know when Launchpad is linked with role ? once we have using UI5 only ?
I am seeking for clear conceptual understanding.
I am extremely sorry , I might be sounding so irritating .. 
unfortunately I am lacking portal concepts and that too when it's comes to Launchpad and PFCG roles.
Looking forward for your assistance.
Many thanks,
hi:
I also encountered the same problem,Could you tell me how to slove?
thanks
Hi Phani,
This is not a workset map iView, this is a WD page / application that contains those links.
It looks the same due to the reason we want to keep same UI for different places.
If you want to achieve this you will need to develop it, there is no such component out of the box in portal.

Hi Navya,
Your expert inputs are awaited.
Many thanks,
Navya,
One thing , that composite roles include so many single roles for many countries - shall I directly copy composite role?
Hi Experts,
We have created a URL iview for Business intelligence when we click on that iview it should display in separate tab with business intelligence URL. But it is not working as we expected i.e., When we click on business intelligence iview it is displaying in a separate window it is pointing to portal URL instead of business intelligence URL.
Your response will be appreciated.
Regards,
Devi
HI,
You can go for selective copy related to the country that you are trying to implement.

Hi Navya,
I Just selected 2 roles from composite role as below and tried uploading Z copy of composite role SAP_Employee_ESS_WDA_3 but not able to upload it.
however I am getting below error - I do have system alias for SAP_EREC_talent management still...
Kindly assist.
Many thanks.
Even though we do have system aliases for SAP_EREC_Talentmanagement.
We have system alias for talent is in small letter, should it be exactly same the way name is in Error - all Caps?
Hi Devi,
Can you please check the following wiki and ensure that you are creating the iview correctly:
http://wiki.scn.sap.com/wiki/display/BOBJ/Create+URL+iview+into+the+SAP+EP+portal
What happens when you preview the iview directly in the PCD? Is the BI content displayed?
What version is the portal on?
If you still are having problems, please attach a screenshot of the iview properties in full and also a httpwatch trace
Thanks and regards,
Lorraine
HI,
Yes. Name should be exactly same and should point to your R/3 client. Additionally, open the z copy of custom role that you created in PFCG.
As highlighted in attached screen-shot, for each and every menu link, wherever you find standard SAP rfc destination , change it to your custom RFC destination. Then do role upload. This will work
Regards,
Navya.
Hi Navya,
I am trying to do role upload and it keep on getting error for one and other alias and I did created those alias like for talent management, SRM - is that right approach to create all alias for which I get error while uploading role ?
Hi Lorraine,
Thanks for the response.
When we preview the iview directly in the PCD it is displaying the BI URL, but when we are accessing through role it displaying wrapped portal url.
Our portal version is 7.02

Devi.
Hi,
You can replace the target system value with RFC destination pointing to your backend client as replied in my last post. I have uploaded these roles and was able to do it successfully. Did you open the pfcg role and check the system values as I had replied in last post as per the screenshot attached?
Regards,
Navya.
Hi Navya,
I do not get any error - and as always I was able to able to launch all services on portal with PFCG roles.
now my only concerned left is "HOW does this PFCG role connect with ESS_MeNU role of LP_CUST"
And if it does, if I do any change in launchpad like , hiding the services from quick link, it does not reflect on ESS portal. Though I can achieve the functionality of hiding the services from Portal end.
Please clear my doubt of linkage between PFCG role and LPD _Cust roles.
Also confirm if the ESS page look and feel is correct as per EHP WDA application
Many thanks.
