WHATSAPP +255738656506
UI Technologies
SAP Fiori
Initial Setup
Prerequisites
Use
Check if this is the front-end server of your SAP Fiori system landscape. Read the documentation about
the system architecture for SAP Fiori apps on SAP Help Portal at
http://help.sap.com/fiori_bs201/helpdata/en/ec/a941524a6b6760e10000000 a42f68/content.htm?fram
eset=/en/29/9a5652d8c725fe10000000a441470 /frameset.htm.
Check the below mentioned settings before you continue to set up SAP Fiori launchpad. This list
does not claim to be exhaustive.
Requirements
Internet Communication Manager

The SAP Fiori launchpad needs a working HTTP(S) connection from the client (browser) to the current
SAP NetWeaver Application Server ABAP. You can check the HTTP(S) settings ( e.g. host name and
port number) in transaction SMICM.
Enter the full domain name into the profile parameter icm/host_name_full. You can check this parameter
in transaction RZ11.
Single-Sign-On
Activate single-sign-on. The front-end server must be able to issue a single sign-on ticket. Therefore, set
the profile parameter login/create_sso2_ticket = 2 and set the profile parameter login/accept_sso2_ticket
= 1. You can check these parameters in transaction RZ11.
SAP NetWeaver Gateway

The SAP NetWeaver Gateway must be installed on the SAP Fiori front-end-server. If it is not
yet installed, you need to install it first. Proceed as described in the installation guide for SAP NetWeaver
Gateway on SAP Help Portal at
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_gateway20sp08/helpdata/en/c/424a2657aa4cf58d
f949578a56ba80/frameset.htm.
SAP NetWeaver Gateway supports two deployment options: The embedded deployment and the central
hub deployment. For more information, see
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_gateway20sp08/helpdata/en/62/91ad98b19 b4a91bca77fbe44227f/content
.htm.
For SAP Fiori, set up SAP NetWeaver Gateway with the deployment option Central Hub
Deployment to separate back-end from front-end components. For more information, see the SAP Fiori
documentation on the SAP Help Portal at
http://help.sap.com/fiori_bs201/helpdata/en/4c/ca4152fc94b610e10000000a44176d/content.htm?fram
eset=/en/29/9a5652d8c725fe10000000a441470 /frameset.htm.
Read the documentation about the system architecture for SAP Fiori apps on SAP Help Portal at
http://help.sap.com/fiori_bs201/helpdata/en/ec/a941524a6b6760e10000000a42f68 /co
ntent.htm?frameset=/en/29/9a5652d8c725fe10000000a441470 /frameset.htm.
Example
Example of a full domain name: icm/host_name_full = server.domain.com
Example of single sign on settings: login/create_sso2_ticket = 2 and login/accept_sso2_ticket = 1
Schedule SAPUI5 Application Index Calculation
Use
The SAPUI5 application index provides an indexing and caching mechanism for information related to
SAPUI5 apps, components, and libraries that are contained in SAPUI5 repositories on the SAP
NetWeaver Application Server for ABAP. The index is used by several different services (such as the
SAP Fiori launchpad and cache buster), which means you have to schedule the index creation as a
background job.
Activities
To update the SAPUI5 application index regularly, in Define Background Job ( transaction
SM6), schedule the execution of the /UI5/APP_INDEX_CALCULATE report as a background job.
For more information, see the report documentation and SAP Library for User Interface Add-On 2 for
SAP NetWeaver on SAP Help Portal at http://help.sap.com/nw-uiaddon. Under Application Help, open
SAP Library and search for SAPUI5 Application Index.
Connection Settings (Front-End Server to ABAP Back-End Server)
Define Trust for SAP Business Systems
Use
The back-end server(s) of SAP Fiori launchpad must trust the front-end server to enable a working single
sign on environment.
Activities
Proceed as described in the configuration guide of SAP Gateway on SAP Help Portal at
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_gateway20sp08/helpdata/en/46/17f252ab9471aa450906fbf62fef7/content.
htm?frameset=/en/4c/a670b0e6c4c01ae2b9a042056f9dc/frameset.htm. Note: This activity has to be
performed on each back-end system.
Example
You have the front-end server FES with client 010 and two SAP Business Suite back-end systems BE1
and BE2.
WHATSAPP +255738656506
On BE1 and BE2 you create the RFC destination FESCLNT010 and use SMT1 to create the trust
relationship.
At runtime the user log in is done on system FES and the single-sign-on ticket is issued here. When
calling either back-end system BE1 or BE2 the single-sign-on ticket is passed with this call.
Now the back-end server checks if it trusts the system that issued the single-sign-on ticket. If yes, then
the trust is set up correctly and the single-sign-on works correctly as well.
Manage RFC Destinations
Use
Define remote function call (RFC) destinations from the front-end server for SAP Fiori to the back-end
system(s).
Additionally define an RFC destination that has the front-end server itself as target for local RFC calls.
Requirements
The back-end servers must already trust the front-end server.
Activities
Proceed as described in the configuration guide of SAP Gateway on SAP Help Portal at
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_gateway20sp08/helpdata/en/0a/a6ff82d7d94b1fa7b87f29ecaa0e01/content.
htm?frameset=/en/4c/a670b0e6c4c01ae2b9a042056f9dc/frameset.htm.
Example
You have the front-end server FES (client 010) and two SAP Business Suite back-end systems BE1
(client 020) and BE2 (client 020).
On FES you create the RFC destinations BE1CLNT020_T, BE2CLNT020_T, and FESCLNT010_T and
activate the trust relationship in all these RFC destinations.
Activate SAP Gateway
Use
Activate SAP Gateway for using SAP Fiori launchpad.
Define SAP System Alias
Use
A SAP system alias is needed as the logical name of a system connection.
Requirements
Remote function call (RFC) destinations must exist from the front-end server for SAP Fiori to all back-
end servers.
Standard settings
Create one SAP system alias pointing to the front-end server and activate the indicator Local Gateway.
Create one SAP system alias for each back-end system and assign the corresponding RFC destination.
Initial Launchpad Configuration
Service Maintenance of SAP Gateway
Use
Several SAP NetWeaver Gateway services are needed for running SAP Fiori launchpad. Here you can
activate and maintain details of these services.
Standard settings
For running SAP Fiori launchpad as an end user, you need the following services as a basis (these are the
external service names):
- /UI2/INTEROP
- /UI2/PAGE_BUILDER_PERS
For running SAP Fiori launchpad designer as an administrator, you need the following services in
addition:
- /UI2/PAGE_BUILDER_CONF
- /UI2/PAGE_BUILDER_CUST
- /UI2/TRANSPORT
Activities
For each above mentioned external service name do the following:
- Add the service to the service catalog (you can restrict the filter by a local system alias).
Specify the technical service name in the customer namespace. Use the
highest available version.
- Activate the Internet Communication Framework (ICF) node ODATA.

- Assign an SAP system alias that uses the local system.
- Choose Call Browser to check the connection and to automatically generate authorization-related
hash values.

Prepare Backend Catalogs for Reuse
Establish RFC and HTTP Connection
Use
To integrate Web Dynpro ABAP applications and SAP GUI transactions located on a SAP Fiori back-
end server into SAP Fiori launchpad, the SAP Fiori front-end server needs to connect to this server.
The following connection types are required:
- Via RFC: This connection type is required when setting up the SAP Fiori front-end server. In this
case, the catalogs containing the applications on the back-end server are replicated to the SAP Fiori
front-end server for faster access.
- Via HTTP: This connection type is required when a Web Dynpro application or a SAP GUI
transaction is launched during runtime of the SAP Fiori launchpad.
Activities
1. Call transaction SM0 and display the content of the view /UI2/V_SYSALIAS.
2. Call transaction SM59 in a new window.
3. For each entry of the view /UI2/V_SYSALIAS, create an RFC connection with the name <system
alias>_RFC. Make sure that the connection points to the server with the correct catalogs. The
software component which needs to be installed in a backend server for a specific system alias can
be derived from the documentation of the SAP Business Suite application that you need to install.
Please check the documentation in the Fiori App Library:
https://fioriappslibrary.hana.ondemand.com/sap/fix/externalViewer
4. For each entry of the view /UI2/V_SYSALIAS, create an HTTP(S) connection with the name
<system alias>_HTTP pointing to the same system as the RFC connection in the previous step.
Note that you can reuse system alias configurations by mapping the source system alias of a
Web Dynpro ABAP application or SAP GUI transaction to a target system alias with existing RFC
connections. For more information, see
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_uiaddon20/helpdata/en/c2/4f90116e74a9bb864a001a1466
42 /content.htm
Example
There is an entry in the view /UI2/V_SYSALIAS, named FIORI_BE.
Thus, you need to create an RFC connection in transaction SM59 named FIORI_BE_RFC and an
HTTP(S) connection named FIORI_BE_HTTP.
Extract Transactions and Web Dynpro Applications
WHATSAPP +255738656506
Define Semantic Objects for Navigation
Use
This is an optional customizing activity.
Define new semantic objects that can be used in the SAP Fiori launchpad designer for creating new
navigation intents.
Standard settings
Normally you can reuse the semantic objects that were delivered by SAP (see transaction
/UI2/SEMOBJ_SAP).
If you need new semantic objects, enter them in this customizing activity. This might be necessary for
adding navigation to applications developed by you in the SAP Fiori launchpad.

SAP NetWeaver Business Client
Define SAP GUI Tags (Runtime for SAP NetWeaver User Interface
Services)
Use
In this Customizing activity you can create and edit SAP GUI tags.
In SAP NetWeaver Business Client (NWBC), SAP GUI for Windows can run as the main application. In
this Customizing activity, if you mark individual fields of the SAP GUI application with tags, NWBC
exports these fields and makes them available in its side panel. The side panel can use this data to display
secondary contents (for example, statistics or notes).
Requirements
You want to program a side panel application and have read the NWBC documentation ( see section
Integrating the Context-Sensitive Side Panel).
You have selected the relevant fields in SAP GUI Property Collector and copied them to the buffer.

You can define your own semantic objects in this Customizing activity. Additionally it is
possible to overwrite the attributes of a semantic object that was delivered by SAP by defining an entry
with the same key.
Standard settings
The semantic objects delivered by SAP are available in the transaction /UI2/SEMOBJ_SAP.
Register POWL for OData Consumption
Use
In this Customizing activity you register a POWL application ID for OData consumption.
Activities
1. Register a POWL application ID.

Specify the application ID of a POWL and map it to the technical model name upon which your
service is based. The model name does not have to exist at this stage.
2. For each application ID, select the POWL queries that you would like to consume via OData.
If you do not enter a query, it is presumed to be inactive. You can also include a query in the list
and uncheck the Active indicator.
3. For each POWL query that is set to active, you have to specify a query key.
OData requires a key for each entity.

user interface services.
SAP Jam Integration
Introduction to SAP Jam Integration and Collaboration
Use
WHATSAPP +255738656506
The Social Media Integration for ABAP (ABAP SMI) provides an ABAP API that enables you to use
features from external service providers such as SAP Jam.
The API sends HTTP requests to the service provider that address the specific REST or OData services
of the provider.
Requirements
- The Customizing activities are only necessary if an application supports this type of collaboration
and you are using this application.
- To integrate SAP Jam with your SAP system, you must obtain a valid SAP Jam license. Contact
your account executive for further details.
- You must be registered as a company administrator on the SAP Jam server.
- You have maintained a unique email address for the SAP Jam users in the user master record of
your back-end system.
Standard settings
The following Customizing entries have been preconfigured by SAP and delivered as entries of tables
with delivery class S:
- View cluster CLB2VC_PTYPE: Definition of service provider types (Jam, StreamWork), and their
supported endpoints.
- View CLB2V_IC_DISP: Definition of dispatcher classes for processing the HTTP requests.
- View CLB2V_AUTH_CONT: Definition of authentication contexts. - View CLB2V_AUTH_METH:

Definition of authentication methods.
- View cluster CLB2VC_PLATF_DEF: Default servers of the service provider.
- View CLB2V_APPLI: Applications using the collaboration scenario. The default value is
DEFAULT (description: Social Media Integration for ABAP).
Activities
The following steps describe the Customizing settings that are specific for each customer system
and client and thus not preconfigured by SAP. The steps must be carried out in each client of the back-
end system as well as at the SAP Jam server.
The examples focus on connecting to SAP Jam.
Note
- Previous releases of ABAP SMI known as Social Media ABAP Integration Library (SAIL) were
delivered as part of SAP NetWeaver component SAP_BASIS. A previous release may be used in
parallel with the version shipped with the UI Add-On. The Customizing tables are different
therefore you will need to repeat the Customizing steps described in the following nodes even if the
basis settings have been provided.
- If you have an existing connection to SAP Jam established using SAIL, you can now use report
RCLB2_CUST_MIGRATE to migrate your configuration data to ABAP SMI. SAIL and ABAP
SMI belong to different SAP NetWeaver components and the respective configuration data is stored
in different Customizing tables. The report allows you to conveniently migrate your SAIL
configuration data to the relevant ABAP SMI Customizing tables. For more information, see
Migration Report for SAIL Configuration Data.
Define HTTP Service
Use
In this Customizing activity, you determine or define the appropriate HTTP service that can be used in
the communication with the external service provider.
Communication from a company network with the outside world takes places by means of an HTTP
proxy.
Activities
To maintain the appropriate HTTP service for the communication with SAP Jam, proceed as follows:
1. Run transaction SICF.
2. On the Define Services screen, choose Execute (F8) without making further specifications.
3. On the Maintain service screen, choose Client -> Proxy Settings (Ctrl+F2). The Proxy
Configuration for HTTP Client screen appears.
4. On the HTTPS Protocol tab, in the Host Name and Port fields, enter the default values that the
system uses for proxy access.
You need the values for the Host Name and Port fields later in Customizing activity Define Server
Settings.
Note:
If you use global defaults, you can leave the Host Name and Port fields empty.
5. Choose OK.
Maintain Certificate of Service Provider
Use
In this Customizing activity, you register the certificate of the service provider.
Requirements
The certificate must first be retrieved from the Web site of the service provider.
- Go to the SAP Jam web site using the browser of your choice.
- View your SSL certificate and navigate to the self-signed root certificate authority ( CA ).
- To export the certificate to a base64-encoded file, select the Base-64 encoded X09
(.CER) option as the format for the export file
Activities
WHATSAPP +255738656506
1. Choose the entry SSL client (Anonymous) by using transaction STRUST.
2. Import the certificate of the service provider to the Certificate List.
Enable SAML 2 Identity Provider
Use
In this Customizing activity, you can enable the support feature of the Security Assertion Markup
Language 2 (SAML 2).
Requirements
Transaction SAML2 must be present in your system.
Activities
1. Using transaction SAML2, enable SAML 2 support.

The default provider name is <system ID>_<client>.
Change the default by adding a company- specific prefix, for example:
<company>_<system ID>_<client>.
Register the provider name for your organization with the target platform of the external service
provider.
2. The IdP certificate can be found on the Local Provider tab; choose Metadata. In the dialog box,
select Service Provider and choose Download Metadata.
3. Open the XML file.
4. Extract and save the part that is shown in the tag < ds:X509Certificate >.
Example
Provider Name: SAP_YN_000
Prepare OAuth SHA1
Use
In this Customizing activity, you retrieve an RSA-SHA1 certificate. The authentication of calls in an
application context uses OAuth with RSA-SHA1 encryption. For authentication in SAP Jam, you also
need the RSA-SHA1 certificate.
Standard settings
The application CLBOAU has already been delivered for the Secure Store and Forward (transaction
SSFA).
Activities
1. Using transaction STRUST, choose Create in the context menu of entry SSF CLBOAU to create a
certificate in RSA-SHA1 encryption (PSE) if it is not available.
2. Double-click the Subject field of your own certificate. This shows the certificate that you can
export in base64-encoded format.
Note
If required, the standard SSF ID CLBOAU can be changed to another value in transaction
CLB2_PTYPE.
Register Application as OAuth Client
Use
In this Customizing activity, you register your application as an OAuth client in SAP Jam.
Requirements
You have Administrator privileges for your company's SAP Jam installation (for a list of company
administrators, logon to your company's SAP Jam account, click your name at the top of the page, and
select Admin from the dropdown list).
Standard settings
The SAP applications that use Social Media Integration for ABAP are already defined in view
CLB2V_APPLI. You have to repeat the activities for each application that you are using, especially for
the default application DEFAULT, in each SAP system and client that will connect to an external service
provider.
Activities
1. In the navigation bar, choose OAuth Clients.

2. Register each application that you want to use, for each SAP system and client, by choosing the link
Add OAuth Client.
We recommend choosing the name of the OAuth client following the pattern:
<company>_<system>_<client>_< application >
3. Enter the Integration URL, for example, a link to the homepage of your company or an application.
4. Enter the Security Certificate that you downloaded in the Customizing activity Retrieve
Certificate for RSA-SHA1.
Note: Make sure to remove all hard returns from the textbox: If you see a space at the end of the
line, you should remove it.
5. Save the new OAuth client.
WHATSAPP +255738656506
To get the details of the OAuth client that you just created, choose View in SAP Jam. You will receive a
consumer key that you will need in a later step.
Example
OAuth client name = SAP_YN_000_DEFAULT
Register SAML Trusted Identity Provider at SAP Jam
Use
In this Customizing activity, you register the identity provider (IdP) you defined in Customizing activity
Enable SAML 2 Identity Provider.
Requirements
- You are a company administrator.

- You have retrieved the IdP ID through Customizing activity Enable SAML 2 Identity Provider.
- You have retrieved the IdP certificate through Customizing activity Maintain Certificate of Service
Provider.
Activities
1. From the navigation bar, choose SAML Trusted IDPs.

A list of the IdPs registered for your company is displayed.
2. If the IdP ID is not listed, choose Register Your Identity Provider.

3. In the following dialog, enter the following data:
- IdP ID obtained from Customizing activity Enable SAML 2 Identity Provider
- Allowed assertion scope to Users in my company
- Certificate retrieved through Customizing activity Maintain Certificate of Service Provider
4. Choose Register.
Define Server Settings
Use
In this Customizing activity, you can enter the client-specific settings for the communication with the
service provider.
Standard settings SAP delivers
the following definitions: - Service
provider type 'Jam' and the supported
methods on this platform (view cluster
CLB2VC_PTYPE)
- Default URL of the SAP Jam server in view cluster CLB2VC_PLATF_DEF
Activities
- In view cluster CLB2VC_PLATF, choose service provider type Jam.
- For each server to which you want to connect, specify the following settings:
- Service Provider name: For SAP Jam, this must be cubetree.com.
- URL that addresses the SAP Jam data center, as provided by SAP Jam's product support
- Proxy settings (host and port) are only required for older releases, in the event of HTTP errors
(for example, ICM_HTTP_CONNECTION_FAILED).
- SSL client identity is ANONYM, corresponding to the SSL client (Anonymous) of transaction
STRUST.
- Select the Send Notifications option, if you want to distribute notifications to SAP Jam.
- Specifying a bgRFC Destination that deviates from the default IWFND_ODATA_PUSH is

optional. If you leave the field empty, the system assumes that the destination
IWFND_ODATA_PUSH exists in transaction SBGRFCCONF and that the scheduler settings
are made for this destination.
- The valid authentication method for each authentication context, for each relevant server of
SAP Jam:
APPLI (application context) OAUTH_10_SHA1
APPUSR (application context with user authentication) OAUTH_10_SHA_
USER (user context) SAML_20

NONE (no authentication) NONE
Example
For the connection to SAP Jam, the settings are as follows:

Service Provider Type: Jam
Server: Jam productive
Service Provider: cubetree.com
URL target server: Data center URL provided by SAP Jam's product support
Proxy Host: Empty (*)
Proxy Port: Empty (*)
SSL Client Identity: ANONYM
Send Notifications, bgRFC Destination,
WHATSAPP +255738656506
Gateway Destination: Not selected or empty, if you do not use the distribution of
notifications.
(*) to be specified in older releases only, in the event of HTTP errors (for example,
ICM_HTTP_CONNECTION_FAILED).
Define Application Settings
Use
In this Customizing activity, you maintain the server settings for the applications that are used.
If nothing else, you will need to maintain the default value, which is the DEFAULT application.
Although other applications may have been defined and delivered with a specific SAP release.
Standard settings
SAP predefined applications that support the collaboration tool integration in view CLBV_APPLI, and
the possible platforms in view CLB2V_PLATF_DEF.
Activities
1. For each application, assign the collaboration server that is addressed by way of REST
communication.
For example, assign Service Provider Type: Jam, and Server: Jam Productive, for productive
use of SAP Jam.
2. Next, for each assignment, configure the server settings:

- Ext. Application ID: The OAuth client registered by way of Customizing activity
- Consumer Key: The consumer key that you retrieved by way of Customizing activity
- HTTP Timeout: The timeout for HTTP requests sent to the service provider
Number greater than 0 (1,2,,...): Timeout in seconds
0: Use default timeout
-1: No timeout
Note: You can also define additional parameters in the "Extensions" folder. This section needs not to be
filled for connecting to SAP Jam, but is necessary for other target platforms that need to be addressed
via the OAuth 2 protocol.
Register OData Service
Use
The OData Service Registry is a reuse component for any application. The registry allows you to define a
subset of OData services that can be published in a given application context to external or on-demand
platforms.
You define the OData services in the application system.
Standard settings
SAP standard services may have been delivered from view cluster CLB2VC_GW_SRV_S (transaction
SE54). Check these default settings, first.
Activities
If necessary, you can register your own OData services in view cluster CLB2VC_GW_SRV_C
(Customer) as follows:
- The business object type (mandatory) and the application context (optional) determine your
business context.
- The external service name is the external name of an OData Service and includes the service
namespace. The value must correspond to an entry in Customizing (see Customizing for SAP
NetWeaver under Gateway -> OData Channel -> Administration -> General Settings ->
Activate and Maintain Services (or run transaction /IWFND/MAINT_SERVICE)).
- Enter the version of the service in the Service Version field.

- The name of the Collection or entity set within the service that corresponds to the business object
type.
- The Resource URL field contains the static part of the OData service. Adhere to the following
naming convention:
/sap/opu/odata/{NAMESPACE}/{SERVICE}
The internal URL prefix for addressing the Gateway system is added from the information that has
to be maintained (once) in the Customizing activity Server Settings in the form of the RFC
destination of the Gateway server.
- The Annotation URL field must contain the static part of the OData annotation resource that is
assigned to the specific OData service.
The field needs to be maintained only if the business objects can be rendered by the service
provider, for example, through the Thing Inspector component of SAP UI5. If the service provider
is SAP Jam, the resource URL must also be registered in your SAP Jam instance as an external
application. For more information, see the SAP Jam Administration Guide on SAP Help Portal at
http://help.sap.com/sapjam.
- In the dialog structure, under Service Providers, assign all service providers for which the service
registration is to be valid, for example, Jam.
- In the dialog structure, under Related Services, you have the option of defining a service
mapping. That is, all OData resources that are added here will be treated like the OData resource of
the corresponding root entry. The resource information from the root node will be used while
sharing information with the external service provider.
Note: If the collection name or annotation URL cannot be statically defined, you can implement BAdI
Empty Fields in OData Service Registry to determine the right values at runtime.
WHATSAPP +255738656506
Define URL Mapping
Use
To meet a requirement not to expose internal proxy host or port names outside the firewall, you must
define the mapping for the URLs that are sent as part of the notifications.
During the distribution of the notifications an implicit URL rewriting of backward references takes place,
based on table HTTPURLLOC.
Standard settings
No entries are predefined by SAP.
Activities
1. Run transaction SE16 and call up table HTTPURLLOC.
2. Maintain table HTTPURLLOC as follows:
- In the PROTOCOL field, enter the protocol that the external communication uses. For SAP
Jam, this is HTTPS. Use SSL whenever possible.
- In the FOR_DOMAIN field, enter the external representation of the URL, for example,
www.saptest.com.
- In the APPLICATN field, specify the same application ID as used in Customizing activity
Define Application Settings
- In the HOST and PORT fields, enter the internal proxy information, for example, lcfsg2hd
and 8080.
Notes:
- The HTTPURLLOC entries represent an inside to out mapping that corresponds to the outside
to in mapping at your reverse proxy or web dispatcher.
- You can also specify a default entry, with host and port set to *, if it is not possible to specify
all application servers at design time (for example, due to virtualization).
- Only links to OData resources will be converted. The program will not convert UI links, nor
parse the text segment (summary) of the notification.
- The exception handling is controlled by indicator Mapping Exception that is part of the
Define Server Settings: If the indicator is set, an exception is raised when the URL mapping is
not successful. This exception results in erroneous entries in the bgRFC queue.
Example
Specific server:
MANDT 000
SORT KEY 0004
PROTOCOL HTTPS
APPLICATN DEFAULT
FOR DOMAIN WWW.SAPTEST.COM
HOST LYXY245.WDF.SAP.CORP
PORT 8010
Default or fallback entry:

MANDT 000
SORT KEY 0005
PROTOCOL HTTPS
APPLICATN DEFAULT
FOR DOMAIN WWW.SAPTEST.COM
HOST *
PORT *
Configure REST Tunnel
Use
In this Customizing activity, you configure a REST tunnel to place indirect OData or REST calls to the
external service provider. The use of this type of indirect OData or REST call prevents cross-domain
authorization problems that occur when using direct calls.
Note:
This configuration option is currently not supported for external service providers other than SAP Jam.
ABAP SMI provides a general REST tunnel that uses the same trusted connection as the one you have
established in the Customizing steps for Server Settings and Application-Specific Server Settings. From
the application#s perspective, the tunnel is called first before SAP Jam is called - that is, it is called
indirectly.
The REST tunnel can be addressed as an ICF service using the ICF node path
sap/bc/ui2/smi/rest_tunnel/. The REST tunnel splits the URL, and uses the authentication context
specified in transaction CLB2_TUNNEL (view CLB2V_TUNNEL_C) for authentication with the service
provider. It then rebuilds the URL and forwards the OData request to the target resource in SAP Jam.
By default, tunneling is not active.
Activities
1. To check whether the ICF node sap/bc/ui2/smi/rest_tunnel/ is activated, run transaction SICF.
2. Run transaction CLB2_TUNNEL, and choose New Entries. Do one of the following:
- To activate the REST tunnel for the OData endpoint of the service metadata document,
complete the fields as follows:
Field Value
Tunnel Destination Enter Jam.
Service Provider Type Select Jam.
Application ID Select DEFAULT.
Service Root Enter api/v1/OData.
(This entry is case-sensitive.)
Resource Path Enter $metadata.
Authentication Context Select NONE (No authentication).
WHATSAPP +255738656506
- To activate the REST tunnel for the OData endpoint of SAP Jam, complete the fields as
follows:
Field Value
Service Root Enter api/v1/OData.
Resource Path tunnel), leave the To use the default (that is, the unrestricted REST
field empty.
Authentication Context Select USER (User context).
- To activate the REST tunnel for posting feed entries in SAP Jam, complete the fields as
follows:
Field Value
Service Root Enter api/v1/feed/post.
Resource Path To use the default (that is, the unrestricted REST
tunnel), leave the field empty.
- To activate the REST tunnel for retrieving the single-use tokens from SAP Jam, complete the
fields as follows:
Field Value
Service Root Enter /v1/single_use_tokens.
Resource Path tunnel), leave the To use the default (that is, the unrestricted REST
field empty.
Note:
Some services that would expose security tokens through the REST tunnel are blocked by a blacklist.
The blacklist cannot be modified.
3. Save your entries.
Example
Here is an example of a URL:
https://vmw911.wdf.sap.corp:445/sap/bc/ui2/smi/rest_tunnel/Jam/api/v1/OData/Grou
ps('ABC12')
The URL consists of the following elements:
Element Description
vmw911.wdf.sap.corp:445 Back-end host and port
sap/bc/ui2/smi/rest_tunnel ICF node path
Jam Tunnel destination
api/v1/OData Service root
Groups('ABC12') Resource path for the service
Note:
The system uses the most specific entry matching the service root and the resource path to determine the
service provider type, application ID, and authentication context.
The REST tunnel then replaces the first part of the URL (including the tunnel destination) with the
address of the service provider as specified in the server settings of ABAP SMI ( see Customizing
activity Define Server Settings).
Define Service of Provider
Use
With this Customizing activity you can register additional service APIs of the external service providers.
You then access view CLB2V_SERVICE_C.
Requirements
The registration is the prerequisite for using the ABAP OData API, as represented by class
CL_ODL_API or test report R_ODL_TEST.
Standard settings
SAP has delivered standard settings as part of view CLB2V_SERVICE_S, which you can access with
transaction CLB2_PTYPE.
Activities
You can specify any identifier in the field "OData Service".
Specify the root URL of the OData service as the service name.
Example
In view CLB2V_SERVICE_S, SAP has delivered an entry:

OData Service = DEFAULT
Service Name = api/v1/OData
Auth. Context = USER
You only have to make an additional entry in CLB2V_SERVICE_C, if you need to address a different
OData endpoint for Jam or the endpoint of a different service provider.
WHATSAPP +255738656506
Notifications
Send Notifications
Use
The following steps describe the Customizing activities that you can use to activate and send
notifications to the external service provider SAP Jam.
Requirements
You have configured the connection to SAP Jam by performing the Customizing activities under
SAP Jam Integration.
For more information, see the SAP Library for User Interface Add-On for SAP NetWeaver on SAP Help
Portal at http://help.sap.com/nw-uiaddon. Under Application Help, open SAP Library and search for
Connecting SAP Jam with ABAP SMI.
Standard settings
By default, notifications are not forwarded to external service providers, even if you already use a
connection to these platforms to call the ABAP Social Media Integration API.
Activities
To configure the Sending Notifications scenario, proceed as follows:
1. For each target server, activate the Send Notification option in Customizing activity Define Server
Settings.
Optionally, specify a separate background RFC destination to be used instead of the default value
IWFND_ODATA_PUSH.
2. Set the distribution monitor by using the Background RFC monitor in which you also configure an
inbound destination (see Customizing activity Maintain bgRFC Destination).
3. Register relevant callback services for applications, such as SAP CRM, that trigger notifications to
benefit from the OData service registry (see Customizing activity Register OData Service).
For more information, see the application-specific guides.
4. Define a URL Mapping for the OData resource links that are transferred with the notifications.
5. Activate the relevant OData services for your scenario in Customizing activity Activate OData
Service for Notifications.
6. If the notification will be triggered by a change document, in transaction SWEC, enter the event
handler (see Customizing activity Register Event Handler for Change Documents).
Note:
The notification may contain OData resource links that allow SAP Jam to retrieve more information
about the business object using SAP Gateway. For information about how to set up the connection
between SAP Jam and SAP Gateway, see the SAP Jam Developer#s Guide on SAP Help Portal
at http://help.sap.com/sapjam.
Maintain bgRFC Destination
Use
In this Customizing activity, you configure the destination for the background processing of notifications.
Activities
1. In transaction SBGRFCCONF, ensure that the inbound destination IWFND_ODATA_PUSH is

defined.
2. If necessary, create a new destination under a new name.
If you define a new inbound destination, register the new background RFC destination in view
CLB2V_PLATF for each relevant target server (see Customizing activity Define Server
Settings).
3. Enter the scheduler settings for the destination.
Activate OData Service for Notifications
Use
In this Customizing activity, you can activate OData services for which notifications are to be sent to a
collaboration platform that acts as a feed aggregator. You have to specify new entries for each OData
service for which you want to distribute notifications. If no entry exists for a service, no notifications are
sent.
You must define the notification filter. The filter restricts the number of notifications that are sent, that is,
it works as an anti-spam filter. You must explicitly specify the OData services for which notifications are
to be sent to the service provider.
The following Customizing views represent the notification filter:
- CLBV_GW_NOTIFY_S: Entries delivered by SAP
- CLBV_GW_NOTIFY_C: Customer-defined settings.
The logic that decides whether a notification is sent first checks if an entry exists in the C table for your
service provider type and OData service. If so, the S table is not taken into account. This means that
entries in the C table override the SAP default entries.
Requirements
You have activated SAP Jam as a feed aggregator in Customizing view CLB2V_PLATF.
Activities
WHATSAPP +255738656506
To activate notifications for specific OData services, proceed as follows:
1. Specify the target service provider (field Service Provider Type).
2. Enter the OData services by specifying their external and technical service names ( fields External
Service Name and Technical Service Name).
These must be the same names that have been registered on the SAP Gateway Server in
Customizing for SAP NetWeaver under Gateway -> OData Channel -> Administration -> General
Settings -> SAP NetWeaver Gateway to SAP System -> Activate and Maintain Services (transaction
/IWFND/MAINT_SERVICES).
3. In the Send Notification field, select All Notifications.
Example
Field Value
Service Provider Type SAP Jam
External Service Name ACCOUNT_CSCS
Technical Service Name /IWFND/ACCOUNT_CSCS
Send Notifications All Notifications
Register Event Handler for Change Documents
Use
You can register an event handler that is triggered by the change documents function for business
objects. This means that when a business object is changed, the system sends a notification to a target
platform, such as SAP Jam.
Requirements
You have followed the steps outlined in Send Notifications.
Standard settings
The UI add-on for SAP NetWeaver provides an implementation of Business Add-In (BAdI) Send
Gateway Notifications (CLB2_BULK_FEED_SEND)in which SAP Jam is set up as the service provider.
In addition, a default event handler function (CLB2_CD_NOTIFICATION_SEND) is delivered that can

be directly used in transaction SWEC. This function delegates to class
CL_CLB2_CD_NOTIF_PUBLISHER. If the default logic of the class is not sufficient for your
application, you can redefine the methods of this class in a sub-class. In this case, you have to copy the
function to instantiate your own class.
Activities
1. In transaction SWEC, field Event Container, enter the event handler function
CLB2_CD_NOTIFICATION_SEND, or any other function that has been specified by your
application.
2. In transaction SE16, table SWECDOBJ, ensure that the FBTYP field is set to N.
Business Add-Ins ( BAdIs )
BAdI: External ID for Backend User
Use
With this Business Add-In (BAdI), you can define the mapping from the back-end user name to an
external ID for an external service provider.
The external service provider may request an email address as a user name. This email address can be
taken from various sources: - User's data in the system
- Business Partner data

- Remote system
Standard settings
The default implementation uses the BAPI BAPI_USER_GET_DETAIL to read the email address from
the user in the back-end system.
Example
See the fallback implementation of the BAdI in class CL_CLB2_USER_MAPPING_DEFAULT.
BAdI: Fill Empty Fields of OData Service Registry
Use
You use this Business Add-In (BAdI) for a newly introduced application context (filter value) if you are
using the service registry of the ABAP Social Media Integration (ABAP SMI) but it is not possible to
statically define the collection or annotation for the specific OData service.
Requirements
- You are actively using the ABAP SMI service registry (table CLB2C_GW_SRV or
CLB2C_GW_SRV).
- Either the Collection field or the Annotation URL field is left empty for one or more entries in the
table and the application-specific context.
Example
There are two different collections that may be addressed for the service /CRMSWI01/CRMSMI_SRV/
and business object type BUS1006:
- IndividualAccountCollection - CorporateAccountCollection
WHATSAPP +255738656506
This is why the Collection field in the service registry is left empty. An implementation of the BAdI
method DETERMINE_COLLECTION must determine the right collection based on the category of a
specific business partner.
Optionally, you can implement the method DETERMINE_ANNOTATION to dynamically define the
annotations for a specific OData service. The main aspect is to dynamically influence the view of the
business object in a UI, based on criteria such as the user role.
BAdI: OData Service Mapping
Use
With this Business Add-In (BAdI), you can define service-specific methods required for successfully
mapping OData services entered in the ABAP SMI service registry (view cluster CLB2VC_GW_SRV_S
(SAP) or CLB2VC_GW_SRV_C ( Customer )).
Requirements
- You are actively using the ABAP SMI service registry for OData services.
- Note that the service registry is implicitly used by
- the subscription and notification mechanisms of ABAP SMI
- the Share feature of SAP Fiori
- You also use the service mapping function that is represented by the Related Services node of the
view clusters mentioned above.
- If you implement a service mapping, you may also require key mapping as the key property names
are different for the root service and the related service.
Standard settings
For the key mapping between two services, a fallback implementation is available that maps the key 1:1.
This means the result key will be the same as the input key.
Activities
Implement the BAdI for services that are to be mapped and for which the key cannot be passed to the
target service as is.
BAdI: Authorization Check for Subscription and Notification
Use
With this Business Add-In (BAdI), you can add a specific authorization check to the processes of
subscription and notification.
Requirements
You actively use ABAP SMI for sending notifications to an external data provider or for managing the
SAP Gateway subscriptions for these notifications.
Standard settings
The fallback class in the standard system setup does not perform a special authorization check.
Activities
You only need to implement this BAdI if you need to introduce additional checks.
Note
The interface if_clb2_notify_auth provides a constant gc_scenario for distinguishing

subscription and notification scenarios.
BAdI: Subscription Filter
Use
With this Business Add-In (BAdI), you can overwrite the standard behavior for constructing or analyzing
the filter parameter of a subscription. The BAdI provides the following methods:
- CHECK_FILTER: Compares an input filter string (as passed by the application) with the filter
parameter stored with the subscription.
Note:
CHECK_FILTER is called during the subscription as well as the notification processes of
ABAP SMI, but only if the application does not pass the filter string on its own.
- BUILD_FILTER: Builds the filter parameter for a subscription, from a list of name-value pairs
of the key elements of the application. Note:
BUILD_FILTER is only called when using class CL_CLB2_GW_SUBSCRIPTION for the
maintenance of the SAP Gateway subscriptions, and only if the application does not pass the
filter string on its own.
The filter parameter is to be used to comply with the OData.org definition of an OData query
filter (without the leading $filter).
Requirements
You actively use ABAP SMI for sending notifications to an external data provider or for managing the
SAP Gateway subscriptions for these notifications.
In this context, you need to implement or activate a new OData service where the default logic as
delivered by SAP is not sufficient.
Standard settings
Fallback class CL_CLB2_NOTIFY_SRV_DEFAULT is used if no active BAdI implementation can be

found for the specific service and application context (= filter values).
- BUILD_FILTER: Concatenates the name-value pairs of the input list following the pattern
<name[1]> eq '<value[1]>' and <name[2]> eq '<value[2]>' and ...
WHATSAPP +255738656506
- CHECK_FILTER: Assumes the same pattern for both input strings, the application filter, as well as
the subscription filter. It compares the values of all filter parameter key components with the
application filter components and returns abap_true if they are all valid.
Note:
The method is suitable for simple conditions with the eq operator, but not for complex
conditions with other operators. Especially in the case of complex filters, you need to create
your own BAdI implementation.
Activities
You can implement the BAdI in the system where the subscription or notification is triggered, or in a
remote system that can be addressed by an RFC call. The BAdI method calls are embedded into RFC
functions. The RFC destination is determined from the application context by evaluating Customizing
view CLB2V_CONTEXT.
SAP Visual Business
Maintain Application Definitions
Use
In this Customizing activity you define and assign geo-coding services, map products, map layer stacks
and applications for SAP Visual Business. Those settings are mandatory to operate SAP Visual Business.
The settings are client-independent and SAP and customer entries are separated by namespace
reservations.
The lowest level of definitions are geo-coding services and map products. Possible geo-coding services
are address search, route calculation, and reverse geo-coding (address for given geo-location). Supported
are RESTful geo-coding services, which are referred to by service URLs. With the service definition you
also need to specify an ABAP class, implementing interface IF_VBI_GEOCODING_SERVICE, which
is capable of parsing the service response.
A map product is a technical description of a map service, which delivers a map in tiles (images) or as a
single image. Typically a map product provides multiple levels of detail, where each level consists of
multiple tiles. For each map product at least one service URL needs to be given. Multiple URLs can be
provided for distributing the requests among multiple servers. Also the map service is expected to be
RESTful.
The next definition level are map layer stacks. Each stack consists of at least one map product. Multiple
map products can be assigned to one stack in a given order and opacity in order to combine them, for
example, combine a satellite map with a road map as overlay. Note: The projection of all map products
combined in a map layer stack must be the same!
Finally, the multiple map layer stacks can be assigned to an application. One of them needs to be defined
as default stack. Further, the application holds definitions for the behavior and appearance of the
navigation and toolbar control. Further an application might refer to a geo-coding service definition.
Finally the Visual Frame definitions allow you to restrict the application to a certain part of the map.
It is also valid to assign no map layer stack to the application. In this case the application will show a
plain D scene.
Standard settings
The SAP delivered settings can be used for demo purposes only. For a productive use geo-coding
services and map products need to be licensed from a service provider.
Activities
You can define your own SAP Visual Business application. Depending on the use of SAP Visual
Business you can provide them using configuration to the WebDynpro Reuse Component or the FPM
GUIBB for SAP Visual Business. In your own application you provide the application ID to the
application class CL_VBI_APPLICATION.
Overwrite Map Server Default URLs
Use
In this Customizing activity, you can overwrite the map server default URLs assigned to a SAP delivered
map products. The map products are used by the SAP Visual Business browser plug-in.
Requirements
You can only overwrite URLs of existing map products.
Standard settings
For test purposes you can run SAP Visual Business with the SAP delivered URLs.
Activities
The map product URLs contain a token, app ID, or something equivalent, which identifies the service
consumer at the map provider. For a productive use you need to license the map product of your choice.
With the license agreement you get your own token. In order to use this you have to overwrite the default
URLs.
Overwrite Geo-Coding Service Default URLs

Use
In this Customizing activity, you can overwrite the geo-coding service default URLs assigned to a SAP
delivered service. The geo-coding services are used by the SAP Visual Business browser plug-in.
Requirements
You can only overwrite URLs of existing geo-coding services.
Standard settings
For test purposes you can run SAP Visual Business with the SAP delivered URLs.
WHATSAPP +255738656506
Activities
The geo-coding service URLs contain a token, which identifies the service consumer at the service
provider. For a productive use you need to license the geo-coding service, usually together with a map
product, of your choice. With the license agreement you get your own token. In order to use this you
have to overwrite the default URLs.
Define Application Replacements
Use
In this Customizing activity, you can replace the definitions for a Visual Business Application by the
definitions for a different one. This provides an easy possibility to change the definitions made in SAP
delivered Visual Business applications. Just copy the SAP delivered application, change it according to
your needs, and make a replacement entry that the original application should be replace by your copy.
Requirements
You can only use existing applications as replacing and replaced application.
Standard settings
No entries required
Activities
Enter the application you want to replace and the one which should be used instead.
Example
You copied the demo application GEOMAP_DEMO to your own version ZGEOMAP_DEMO and
adapted it to your needs. In order to use your definitions in all places where GEOMAP_DEMO is used
you enter an entry:
Application: GEOMAP_DEMO Replacement: ZGEOMAP_DEMO
UI Theme Designer

ACF: Create Whitelist
Use
As rendered pages are usually displayed in Web Dynpro in a Web browser that is connected to the
Internet, security must be taken into account in active UI elements, such as AcfExecute and
AcfUpDownload:
- The active UI elements communicate only with authorized servers.

- Only authorized executables with specified signatures run on the client PC when using
AcfExecut.
- Data can only be stored in authorized directories.
WHATSAPP +255738656506
- Data can only be read from authorized directories.
The authorized servers and directories are in a white list, that is, an administrator has stored this
information locally (transaction WDR_ACF_WLIST). If requests for access to directories or
communication with servers are sent using HTTP or HTTPS, the control first checks whether this is
allowed at all.
The white list is passed, signed and decoded, automatically in each round-trip.
The administrator creates the public key required for decoding. The SAP GUI installation can distribute
it to the necessary subsequent systems.
The white list can only be maintained in its original system. An administrator must transport it from the
original system into all subsequent systems.
Requirements
Prerequisite for the white list is the installation of SAPCRYPTOLIB.
Activities
1. Execute the activity.

2. Choose Change.
3. Choose New Entries.
4. Enter a name and short description for your new white list.
5. Make the settings for your application:
- For AcfExecute make your settings under Application.

Specify the allowed application, the application path, and any parameters.
- ForAcfUpDownload make your settings under Download (Server -> Directory) or Upload
(Directory -> Server)
Enter the file storage path and type, i.e. server or directory. Specify the HTTP server and port
that you specified in the transaction CSADMIN to specify the directories for the upload and
download.

7. Go back to the initial screen.
8. Select your white list and choose Install Certificate to create the certificate that you need to decode
your white list.
Choose Download Certificate to use a certificate that is already locally on your PC for the
automatic installation.
The system creates a white list with the name SAPFrontendService<original system
name><GUID>.p12.
You can display the XML file with Display .
Paths
For directories:
- If the path points to a file, the file is released.

- If the path points to a directory, the directory and all its subdirectories are released (whether or not
the path ends with a/ ).
Directories and Applications
The following also applies:

- $TEMP points to System.getProperty("java.io.tmpdir"). Example:
$TEMP/foo.txt allows access to C:\Documents and Settings\<user>\Local
Settings\Temp\foo.txt.
- Analogously$HOME points toSystem.getProperty("user.home").

The system allows the user access to C:\Documents and Settings\<user>.
- You can access environment variables between dollar signs.
Example: $windir$/system2: can access all files below C:\WINDOWS\system2.
Note that for reasons of security, abbreviations such as $HOME are not supported during the Microsoft
Project Integration.
Server URLs
You can release entire domains by beginning your settings with *..
Example: *.wdf.sap.corp: releases all servers in the domain wdf.sap.corp.
If no log is specified, HTTP:// is used automatically.

Portal.
Floorplan Manager
Activate ICF Services for FPM Applications
Use
Before you execute and use Floorplan Manager (FPM) applications, you must activate the corresponding
ICF services.
With this customizing activity, you can activate the following:
1)ICF services for FPM service applications (FPM Workbench, Application Creation Tool (ACT), CBA
Enabler, Hierarchy Browser, and Message Mapper)
2)ICF services for FPM test applications (FPM Test Suite and all assigned FPM test applications)
Requirements
Ensure that you have activated the ICF services of all relevant WD ABAP applications, see SAP Note
#1088717.
Activities
Execute this customizing activity to ensure that the relevant ICF services are active. You can then run the
above-mentioned FPM applications.
Context Based Adaptations ( CBAs )
Define Schemas
Use
With context-based adaptations (CBA), an FPM application can be adapted dependent on specific
runtime parameters. A particular adaptation is applied when the application is called within a specified
context (a context being, for example, the role of the person who launches the application).
Before you start to work with CBAs, you need to create or use an existing schema.
A schema is a list of characteristics (or dimensions) that can be used for adaptations, for example a role
or country. Adaptation schemas relate to a whole application area; it is not necessary to create a separate
schema for each application
Activities
Start this customizing activity to create a new schema or check which schemas already exist.
Define Dimensions
Use
WHATSAPP +255738656506
With context-based adaptations (CBA), an FPM application can be adapted dependent on specific
runtime parameters. A particular adaptation is applied when the application is called within a specified
context (a context being, for example, the role of the person who launches the application).
A dimension represents an individual characteristic within an adaptation schema. It is maintained in

transaction SM0 view FPM_V_ADAPT_DIM. Examples of adaptation dimensions include role and
country. A dimension is defined by the following attributes:
# Name: For identification purposes.
# Index: Used to determine the dominating adaptation dimension in case there is a collision.
# Data element: Used only at design time, allowing the provision of field helps and F4 helps.
The adaptation dimensions that are used in an adaptable application are found on the Parameters page of
the application in transaction SE80.
Requirements
To create dimensions, you should create a schema beforehand.
Activities
Start this customizing activity to create new dimensions for a schema.
Message Settings
Define FPM Message Mapping
Use
Messages that are displayed by the system often contain technical terms which might not be understood
by everyone working with the system.
Message Mapper is used to map messages (error messages, warning messages, and information/success
messages) currently displayed by the system to a more understandable, user-friendly form.
Define FPM Message Categories
Use
Within this maintenance view, you can define new message categories for FPM applications. You can
group messages into categories.
Customers cannot delete categories created by SAP applications but they can add new entries based on
their own requirements.
You can use categories to specify, for example, the following items: roles such as Administrator,
Manager, and Employee; technical groups such as an No Authorization group; functional groups such as
an SRM Shopping Cart Customizing group.
Set-Up Printing for Web Dynpro ABAP ALV System-Wide
Create RFC Destination in AS Java
Use
The Web Dynpro ABAP ALV creates a PDF version of the table, optimized for printing. To be able to
create a print version from the WD ABAP ALV, the print service must be made available werden on a
