1 INTRODUCTION

This tutorial describes how to use a customer specific UIBB in Master Data Governance (MDG) application ‘Create Change Request’ (WebDynproApplication usmd_crequest_create). 2 PREREQUISITES

The tutorial was created using a SAP system which contains Software Component MDG_FND 732 Support Package 5. 2.1 Description of business scenario The business scenario comprises the creation of a change request for a single account using application ‘Create Change Request’ (WebDynproApplication usmd_crequest_create). The application is based on a Guided Activity Floorplan (GAF). In step 3 of the GAF several tab strips shall be displayed. One of the tabs shall include a customer specific UIBB. Go to transaction pfcg (Role Maintenance). Select role SAP_MDGF_MENU_03 which is delivered by SAP. Then select tab ‚Menu‘. Following that start application ‘Create Change Request’ in order to create an entity of type account.

Choose a change request type which allows only the processing of a single entity (the definition of the change request type is described in the following chapters). Enter values in all mandatory fields.

Then press ‘Next’ button. Now enter an explanation.

Then press ‘Next’ button. In step 3 click on tab ‘Translation’. There a customer specific UIBB which allows the maintenance of descriptions is displayed.

The customer specific UIBB corresponds to WebDynproComponent ZMH_USMD_TEXT_TRANSL which is a modified copy of the SAP delivered UIBB (WebDynproComponent USMD_TEXT_TRANSL). This example is now used to explain how to configure the MDG application ‘Create Change Request’ in order to display a customer specific UIBB in step 3. 2.2 Create customer specific UIBB Use transaction SE80 in order to copy the SAP delivered UIBB USMD_TEXT_TRANSL. The name of the copied UIBB has to begin with ‘Z’. In this example the copied UIBB is named ZMH_USMD_TEXT_TRANSL .

The caption of the table (CAPTION_1) which contains the descriptions is changed to ‘My own Descriptions’:

Activate the copied WebDynproComponent ZMH_USMD_TEXT_TRANSL. 2.3 UI Configuration Call transaction mdgimg,

Then click on ‘Edit UI Configuration’. Select the SAP delivered UI Configuration ‘MDG_0G_FINANCIALS’.

Then press button ‘Create with Template’. Then use the ‘Deep-Copy Mode’ in order to copy all components of the UI Configuration. Specify the Target Configuration IDs. The IDs have to start with character ‘Z’:

Now edit the copied application configuration (here ZMH_MDG_0G_FINANCIALS). Select ‘Main Screens’ of Variant ACCOUNT because the copied UIBB shall be displayed when user processes an entity of type ACCOUNT. Then Go to tab ‘Translation’ and replace the SAP delivered UIBB ‘USMD_TEXT_TRANSL’ by the copied UIBB (in this example: ZMH_USMD_TEXT_TRANSL).

Then press ‚Save‘ button in order to save the UI configuration (in this example ‘ZMH_MDG_0G_FINANCIALS’).

2.4 Personalization The change request type ‘0G_ACC’ which is used in this example for MDG application ‘Create Change Request’ does not refer to a UI Configuration. You can verify this by displaying the change request type in transaction ‘mdgimg’.

Here you can see that the change request type allows only the processing of a single entity because flag ‘Single Object’ is selected.

When you click on entry ‘Entity Types’ you can see that field ‘Configuration Name’ is empty. Therefore the change request type does not refer to a UI Configuration. Furthermore you can see that the change request type allows the maintenance of an entity of type ACCOUNT. This is why the variant ACCOUNT was changed in the UI configuration (see chapter ‘2.3 UI Configuration’). It would be possible to enter the copied UI Configuration in the change request type. However in this example a different approach is used. When you select a change request type in MDG application ‘Create Change Request’ which does not refer a UI Configuration the application checks whether a UI Configuration is maintained in the personalization settings. Then that UI Configuration is used by MDG application ‘Create Change Request’. As a result the copied UIBB which has been maintained in that UI Configuration is displayed in step 3 of MDG application ‘Create Change Request’.

2.5 Maintain Personalization Go to transaction pfcg (Role Maintenance). Then select role ‘SAP_MDGF_MENU_03’:

Now click on button ‘Change Model’ in order to access the personalization settings.

Select data model 0G because the change request type which is used in this example (‘0G_ACC’) refers to that data model. Assign the copied UI Configuration (in this example ZMH_MDG_0G_FINANCIALS) to that data model. Then click button ‘Save and Apply’ in order to save the settings. Following that leave application ‚Create Change Request‘ (WebDynComponent: usmd_crequest_create) and start it again in order to make sure that the new personalization settings are used. Now you can execute all steps described in chapter ‘2.1 Description of business scenario’. Then you will see that the customer specific UIBB is displayed in step3 of MDG application ‘Create Change Request’.
