Byd Studio Wishlist

[Former Member]

I am just looking to hear what everyone elses biggest Feature wishlists are with the SDK and the Studio, and If I am missing something and mine can be done.

Here are my Biggest ones... (If you can do them Let me know)

• Cross BU communications (not the current message system where I have no Idea of the Request was sucessful) but I really would like to Create a      (just an example) PO From a Production order for example and Know right away the PO so I can link it... 
• Events... I would really like to know when something besides an "Action" happens on the screen.. such as when a Item gets added to a Sales order. so I could pop my own screen to override that action. without having to wait for a save/(whole BO validate)

4.0 will resolve some of my top ones with Webservices "Hopefully", and the Error log for Webservices....

Here is the list we have already presented/submitted to SAP:

• Full release of public solution model
  • Remove controller objects -> direct business object access
  • OR
  • Give partner the possibility to use/create/modify this controller objects
• Modifying of SAP generated UI`S with UI-Designer
  • Adding UI controls to default screens (Advanced List Pane, Buttons with associated Event Handler, own Tabs) -> Bind this controls
  • Adding own Event Handler, enhance existing Event Handler
  • Adding/Modify queries
  • Adding navigations / outports / inports
• Extend Business Objects
  • Adding own nodes
  • Adding own associations
  • Adding own actions
• Actions
  • Using of input and result parameters (-> more flexibility and better code structuring)
• Ability to communicate across deployment units is severely limited. There are only a handful of BO's enabled for this now.
• Allow creation of service integration on BO extension.

Adding another 

Adding a new Query to a Existing BO

This would really help when there is another external identifier (Extension Field) that someone would like to use and maintain in BYD for an integration

With a New query you could then build a webservice that will allow you to query on that field.

I forgot a couple more

Another big one I would like.. If a user creates Extension Fields in their system I would like my App to be able to use / access them..  without them having to have been created by my App.

Another would be Cross app communication So If someone purchases 2 of our Apps I can have the 2 Communicate

This would help If I have 2 apps

     Angry Widgets Free

     Angry Widgets Pro

and a customer wants to upgrade from Free to Pro The could upgrade without losing any of the data from the Free version.

Will,

Andreas and I have met with SAP on these topics and they are on the radar. Unfortunately I don't think they will be delivered any time soon. Their main priority right now is releasing items to the PSM.

We will include you in the next meeting because you have a couple of new ones that we didn't.

For me the Cross BU thing is borderline ridiculous and I really hope they fix that quickly.

[Former Member]

Yeah I have been pushing that Cross BU thing since the first SDK Preview when we were not even allowed to have Cross BU apps.. So hopefully they are making strides on that front.

[Former Member]

They're not. It's not a high priority for them which I think is nuts.

The whole BU concept is not even necessary and is just an artifact of the original design from 5 years ago.
