How to fill the 'IS_PARAMETERS' parameter of an action in BO with a value from a field in FPM?

[helga_raemaekers2]

Hello,

in our FPM application with FBI, we make use of an action with a parameter in our BO.

We click a record of our Guibb List, and the value of a field of this record is the value of the parameter for the action.
So, we don't have to fill the parameter via a popup. The meaning is to get the value of the field into the 'IS_PARAMETERS' parameter of the action in the BO.

We always used the ACTPRM class /BOFU/CL_FBI_GUIBB_ACTPRM_FDR for this kind of actions (with parameters), but hereby you have to fill in the value of the parameters by a popup ( Guibb Form ).

• Is it possible to skip the popup in this class?
• Is there another class without a popup that we can use?
• Is there another solution to get the value of the field into the 'IS_PARAMETERS' parameter?

Thanks a lot for your advise!

Hello Helga,

perfect 🙂 This is the way to go!

Additionally, in the dynamic feeder (method GET_DEFAULT_CONFIG), you can also use the instance on IF_FPM, if needed.

Hello Helga,

there is from FPM side no technical reason why it should not work also for FBI. During the runtime you will see that there is no difference between a statically configured GUIBB and a dynamic one. The rules for the FPM Loop are the same in both cases.

Of course, the dynamic GUIBB requires a bit more programming effort (-> method GET_DEAULT_CONFIG), and you automatically loose the adaptation options (-> Enhancement, Customizing, CBA) for the corresponding GUIBB. But from an ABAP Developers perspective you have additional possibilities, because you can re-instantiate a dynamic GUIBB at every time (-> e.g. via FPM Event FPM_INVALIDATE_UIBB), which leads to a recall of method GET_DEFAULT_CONFIG, and a assignment of Feeder parameters in your case.

Best regards,

Simon

Hello Simon,

I managed to pass the parameter to my action in my BO!
Thanks a lot, this was a way of working (dynamic guibbs) that I didn't do before, it was very learnfull !!

Hello Helga,

yes, of course ... there are many ones 😉

See for instance in the Test Suite > General Features > Miscellaneous the sample "Dynamic UIBBs" which corresponds to application configuration ID FPM_TEST_DYNAMIC_UIBB.

Thx Simon,

although I'm in search of an example with FPM with FBI Views and BOPF ... or is this not possible maybe, FBI and dynamic uibbs?

Hello Helga,

I think this would be only possible with a dynamic GUIBB, see

https://help.sap.com/docs/ABAP_PLATFORM_NEW/9c91640bf34c49d8bad6bc560bedd707/d82d9a9451134865a42f174...

The Feeder Class implements the additional interface IF_FPM_GUIBB_DYNAMIC_CONFIG, and then the configuration content (including the Feeder Parameters) are involved by Feeder method GET_DEFAULT_CONFIG.

Best regards,

Thx Simon,
is there an example of this way of working, in Test Suite perhaps? I never worked with a dynamic GUIBB ...
