Hi Expert,

I have a requirement to extend My Inbox 2.0 for purchase requisition to add Manual Approval name in a new additional tab.

The Approval name are send back to backend and stored in a Z Table for further processing. However I encounter issue extending the app starting from front end UI until backend oData Services, Hopefully there a is workable solution.

Challenge 1 . Using SAP Business Application studio to extend My Inbox .

Status : Failed

Reason: https://answers.sap.com/questions/13184922/manifestjson-of-crossfndfioriinbox-not-recognized.html

Challenge 1.1 Use WebIDE personal edition (Full stack WebIDE no longer available and reserved only to paid version.

Status: Partially

Reason: New Tabs did not appear as expected , but we able to add a new UI on below.

reference used:

Screenshot taken from the cookbook. As you can see 6 is actually can be extend and add a new tab , but we tried and it did not appear. instead we are only able to add UI in 7.

Is there a way to add a tab appear? appreciate if anyone succeed please share a screenshot and know-how.

Challenge 2 Sent the Data Back to backend after user click approve or save button.

Status: not success yet.

Reason: so far from extending My Inbox 2.0 the data are read only the Approval button are from work flow, Attachment and comment box are stored in workflow as well.
