/SAPDII/DWB - Dealer Workbench

[Faaiez]

Hi

I’m interested to know whether anyone has made any changes to SAP’s standard BSP’s for the DWB.

I would appreciate any pointers in doing this.

Thanks

Faaiez,

This forum is more about BSP applications and writing them, and not about questions with a specific product of SAP. Until tonight I have failed to find a specific developer for this product, and as such can not help much. I will try once more tomorrow to see if someone can monitor this thread. However, this is no promise. We will have to see.

Thanks Brian

I understand that this forum is related BSP applications and writing them but thought I could get an idea of SAP's stand on enhancing existing applications specifically this one. I am also unable to find any documentation with regards to this BSP Application. How are SAP's BSP applications documented etc? We received the CD for this application which contained the application only no documentation on how and what it should do etc.

Thank You

Faaiez

Our documentation is in help.sap.com. I am not sure about this application. Maybe you can check (try using advanced find!).

I have emailed the developer (he is currently on holiday) and maybe he can help next week. There is no promises attached to this answer, as this is not my area to say what is possible or not.

Hi Faaiez,

You can check the online documentation for the dealer portal of which DWB is a subcomponent at :

http://kwhelp.sap.com/SAPIKS/_S0cfecba46cae4ce68ce31bb75ee4c46d/KW/IWB_STRUCT_{E8EFB83BEB837443E10000000A11402F/IWB_EXTHLP}361B6D3E40753F7CE10000000A114084/?LANGUAGE=EN&RELEASE=50_2003_Q2&IWB_INDUSTRY=EP_CONTENT&IWB_COUNTRY=&TMP_IWB_TASK=DISPLAY

In general though, enhancing the bsp application for dwb and other applications within the dealer portal is hassle free.

1.Copy the application to your own namespace.This copies views, pages with flow logic and controller but points to the the original controller and application classes so the business logic is unchanged and untouched.

2.After this you can make the changes you require to the ui.

3.Naturally if you add new interface elements you will have to ensure that the do_handle_data and do_handle_event menthods of the controllers have the necessary code to receive data and handle events triggered by the new elements. But there are BADI's in place in the respective methods for this.

4. Call the application with the new url in the main controller.You'll notice it contains the new application name in the url.

Footnote:If creating new views in the SAP namespace is an option, its also possbile to replace one view in the application with another using transaction /SAPDII/T_CCOMPID and /SAPDII/T_CCOMPSET.

There is a customizing cookook available which can be made avaiable to you on request. But I would recommend creating a low priority oss message for this on the component IS-A-DP-VMS so that its tracked and picked up by the original developer.

Regards,

Rana

Hi Rana

Thank you for your assistance. I have created a low priority OSS message so all I have to do now is wait. Unless you can e-mail me the cookbook.
