Use

This Business Add-In (BAdI) is used in the Personalization Framework (CA-GTF-SGF-FPB) component.

This BAdI enables you to undertake the conversion of data formats for objects in connection with personalization. This means you can convert the relevant personalization data for a particular personalization characteristic from external to internal format, and the other way round.

Requirements

Standard settings

The Business Add-In is active in the standard system.

The Business Add-in is filter-dependent, but cannot be used more than once. Create one implementation for each personalization application in whose environment you wish to make a conversion.

If an active implementation exists, this is also executed.

If the system is unable to determine any implementations, then in the standard system the default code for conversion of external to internal format (or the other way round) is executed automatically. To display the default code, choose Goto -> Default Code -> Display .

Activities

After you call the IMG activity, the system displays a dialog box where you enter a name for the implementation.

If implementations of this Business Add-In have already been created, the system displays them in a dialog box. You then choose one of them by choosing Create, and continue as follows:

  1. In the dialog box, enter a name for the implementation of the Add-In and choose Create.
    The system displays the initial screen for creating Business Add-In implementations.
  2. On this screen, enter a short description for your implementation in the Implementation Short Text field.
  3. If you choose the Interface tab, you will notice that the system has populated the Name of the Implementing Class field automatically, by assigning a class name based on the name of your implementation.
  4. Save your entries and assign the Add-In to a package.
  5. To edit a method, double-click its name.
  6. Enter your implementation code between the method <Interface Name>~<Name of Method>. and endmethod. statements.
  7. Save and activate your code. Navigate back to the Change Implementation screen.
    Note: You can also create an implementation for an Add-In and not activate it until later. If you want to do this, do not perform the following step:
  8. Choose Activate.
    When the application program is executed, the code you created is run through.
