Code: Calculating the Open Days of the invoices and

Getting Businesspartner Data

-- Invoices with their age lt_invoice_age = SELECT inv_head.node_key AS invoice_guid, inv_head.created_at AS created_at0, to_timestamp(left(inv_head.created_at,14),'YYYYMMDDHHMISS') AS created_at, days_between(to_timestamp(left(inv_head.created_at,14),'YYYYMMDDHHMISS'), to_timestamp(localtoutc(now(), 'CET'))) AS days_open, FLOOR(seconds_between(to_timestamp(left(inv_head.created_at,14),'YYYYMMDDHHMISS'), to_timestamp(localtoutc(now(), 'CET')))/(24*60*60)) AS full_days_open FROM snwd_so_inv_head AS inv_head;

Step-by-Step Development:

1. Set up your HANA Studio development environment from scratch

2. Generate example data and customize the scenario

3. Check the classical ABAP implementation as it is done without the

usage of SAP HANA

4. Do the optimized ABAP & HANA implementation:

a. Create a SAP HANA calculation view

b. Propagate the SAP HANA calculation view to ABAP and

generate an ABAP external view

c. Consume the ABAP external view with Open SQL

d. Expose the created ABAP external view via new SAP OData

service

5. Do the SAPUI5 implementation:

a. Model a SAPUI5 page to consume the newly created SAP

OData service via SAP Gateway Productivity Accelarator

b. Run the application
