Customise ESS Travel and Expenses apps

489 Views

Hi All,

I'm trying to customise the front end of the travel and expenses applications for ESS in a customer's portal and wondered if anyone has any experience of using the BADI TRIP_WEB_CUSTOMIZING to change the layout of the expenses Web Dynpro screens.

For instance, when you first choose to create a new expenses report my client doesn't want to have the "Departure From" field as it isn't relevant to their business. How would I use the TRIP_WEB_CUSTOMIZING badi to stop this from displaying? I could easily add code to the relevant Web Dynpro component to hide this field but this doesn't seem like the correct approach. I have had a quick look at the IMG activity "Schema and Single Field Control for Web Dynpro" but I can't see where I could hide the "Departure From" field here. Also, how would I go about hiding one of the columns on the additional destination table view? Say I wanted to hide the time column for instance, again I could change the Java but I don't think that is the correct approach. Can this sort of change be performed via the BADI I mention?

Does anyone have any ideas/advice on how to perform these sort of customisations without resorting to manually customising the Java code of the Web Dynpro views?

Thanks,

Gareth.
