Use

Use this Business Add-In (BAdI) to override the additional GUI functions of the Business Data Toolset (BDT) that is defined by SAP. In this way you can adapt the user interface to your individual requirements.

You can change the following characteristics of the additional GUI function:

Please note:

  • The following restriction applies to this BAdI: The additional GUI functions that are displayed on the user interface are numbered. This BAdI only permits you to override the additional GUI functions numbers 1-10, other additional GUI functions cannot be overridden.
  • The BAdI is called for each PBO-cycle of the function module BUS_CUA_FUNCTIONS_COMPLETE.
  • To call the additional GUI functions of the BDT in, for example, SAP Claims Management, starting from the task level menu SAP Claims Management (Transaction ICLWM) Control -> Additional GUI Functions.

Requirements

This BAdI will only be available as of SAP_ABA 7.0.

To be able to use this new functionality in a BDT-based application, SAP must first make certain corrections (see Note 728220). At the moment this new functionality is only available in the following applications:

  • Payment Card Management
  • SAP Claims Management

Standard settings

The BAdI is not active in the standard delivery. There is also no default implementation.

Activities

Implement the method CHANGE for the additional GUI functions for which you want to override the texts or icons.

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.

Example

In SAP Claims Management there is the additional GUI function ICLH_UNREJECT with the function text Undo Rejection, the icon @2W@ (ICON_SYSTEM_UNDO) and the quick info Undo Rejection.

Use this BAdI to change the additional GUI function as follows:

  • Icon in @8X@ (ICON_ALLOW)
  • Quick info in Undo Invoice Rejection

You can thus more strongly emphasize the business context.
