Fiori Launchpad plugin

[former_member443015]

Dear all,

I am trying to create a plugin for the Fiori Launchpad and I expected the result is when the Launchpad launched, a message box will me displayed just like a 'News update'.

I tried to test in local webide and it works. But When I deployed to our system, nothing happened in our system when the Launchpad is launched. The service of the plugin is activated in SICF.

After search from web, a result is to activate the plugin by using the transaction code /UI2/FLP_CUS_CONF to make the plugin available.

When I go to the t-code /UI2/FLP_CUS_CONF in our environment, it returns the t-code 'This function is not possible'. Seems that the t-code does not exist.

Do anyone have some ideas for my case? How to enable the Fiori Launchpad plugin?

Thanks for your help

Sunny

The error is

Dear Laurent Burtaire,

Many thanks for your reply and information.
We are using ECC6.0 EPH 8, may I ask is it possible to use Fiori launchpad plugin?
It seems that I can't use transaction /UI2/FLP_CUS_CONF and /UI2/FLP_SYS_CONF in our system.

Thanks
Sunny

Hello Laurent Burtaire,

Thank you very much again for your suggestion again. I have followed the instructions inside the link

How it Works? SAP Fiori Launchpad Plugins (On-Premise) to create the plugins in Fiori Launchpad, it worked when running in localhost Launchpad.

The guidelines to create plugin is

https://blogs.sap.com/2017/10/12/create-a-welcome-popup-for-portal-fiori-launchpad-and-freestyle-sit...

A Plugin is created with Plufin ID: welcomepopup

I then follow the link Activating Plug-Ins on the ABAP Platform (On-Premise) to activate the plugin by creating a target mapping in catalog under our system’s Launchpad designer.

Semantic Object: Shell

Action: plugin

Application Type: SAP UI5 Fiori App

Title: Welcome popup

URL: /welcomepopup

ID: ZWELCOMEPOPUP

The catalog is also assigned to the role too.

But after performed the above steps, when I login to our system, popup message still not prompted.

Do you have more idea about this case?

Many thanks for your help again.

Regards

Sunny

Hello,

instead of doing a custom development for this you should try if you can already use the Fiori Launchpad Notifications. The setup is described in this Blogs:
