how to create new bol structure for custom ztable.

[Former Member]

Hi gurus,

I am new to SAP CRM 2007. I have a requirement in which I need to create a view which will retreive data from my custom z table. But when you create a view , the wizard ask for Model nodes and, Bol entity, Bol relation etc. Kindly let me know what data I need to enter here so that I can relate to my custom table. I think I need to create a bol structure for my ztable. Kindly guide me in this regard.

Thanks & Regards,

I would recommend to rather use an encapsulation of the ztable into BOL than just trying to work with value nodes because it heavily simplifies building of the UI and code to load, edit and save.

In order to achieve this you would either have to build a genIL component and assign it to the BOL component set addressed in the runtime repository of the UI component to make it available on the UI layer.

If your table is very simple and does not require relations etc. you might save some work using the approach via "Simple Objects" concept of BOL which provides a pretty generic impelmentation that requires much less code and deep understanding of the BOL/ genIL.

Pleasse refer to the respective IMG node under

Customer Relationship Management -> CRM Cross-Application Components -> Generic Interaction Layer/ Business Object Layer -> Component-specific Settings

.

Hope this helps.

Hello,

The table name using EEWB is not in your hands.

In other words, a new table would be created using this approach. though, it will save time to code for access/save logic, but you have to write a transfer batch program which will copy data from your ztable to the ztable created by the Wizard.

You also need to update all the references of your ztable with the one created using EEWB.

While creating Context node using Wizard,

Choose option the Context Node Type : VALUE --> Press CONTINUE

--> On the next screen,

Choose the Icon (+ : Add ABAP Dic Types), put the Z table name in DDIC Struct field and press ENTER

And then choose the required fields from Z Table

and choose CONTINUE.

Thanks

Allot points if this helps!
