Error Handling In Odata

Introduction

◉ For raising error messages first we have to prepare a message container. Message Container is used to add corresponding success or error messages to the response of the OData service. We use a standard interface /IWBEP/IF_MESSAGE_CONTAINER to add the messages to the OData response.

◉ To add a message to the message container, we can use any of these methods in the message container interface apart from these 5 methods other methods also available. In this blog I will be showing these methods only.

SAP BTP ABAP Environment – Pre-Upgrade Option for Release 2108

Overview

Providing a significant number of new features is an important goal of release upgrades to deliver innovations to our customers and partners.

An upgrade is intended as a “no event” for customers and partners. For example, only compatible changes of released objects (APIs) will be delivered. But we recommend performing a test of the custom-built productive apps in a test environment for the new release. The complexity of the technical dependencies between the custom-built apps and the underlying environment cannot be tested isolated, only including the ABAP environment on SAP side. Therefore, we offer you to upgrade selected systems 15 days in advance to test the applications prior to the planned standard-upgrade.

Zchat – ABAP based instant messaging

As an external developer I’m involved in many projects. We usually connect to the client system using various combinations of Remote Desktop. For security reasons, the clipboard between Remote Desktop and the work computer is disabled. Also, we usually don’t have any Instant Messaging or even mail.

Lack of communication turns ordinary actions (copy, past, send) into a whole quest – you need to call, dictate the program name, line number, etc. This greatly slows down development and disturbs concentration.

I wrote a Web Service that works like a chat. The data is stored in the SAP system, the client part is stored in the web browser.

Split STO delivery with fixed number of line items

When users deal with delivery orders with lots of items lines like greater than 25, it creates processing challenges resulting in long delays as the work must be performed by a single person and can’t be divided out. Then the requirement is split delivery at VL10B for STO when the numbers of delivery line items are greater than a specific number.

This question has been asked many times in the community like this one. Jelena’s answer is absolutely working, in this article just make it more clear how to achieve this by using VOFM.

Creating OData API based on a Mapped Data Source

This blog post will provide the steps to implement the pagination in OData by leveraging the CDS view and the SADL framework based on Mapped Data Source.

Introduction:

SADL offers a mapping editor in the SAP Gateway Service Builder to bind one or several SADL models to OData entity sets. This enables you to use SADL models as an additional data source besides RFC and others. Once the OData properties are mapped, the system provides a standard, optimized implementation of the OData service to retrieve the data.

Local ABAP exception classes (inside global classes)

SAP ABAP Exam Prep, SAP ABAP Tutorial and Material, SAP ABAP Exam Prep, SAP ABAP Career, SAP ABAP Learning, SAP ABAP Guides

Why use local exception classes?

Although it is generally best practice to create global exception classes, they can seem a bit overkill for some applications. Think of PoCs, demo scenarios, BAdI implementations, etc. A handy but not so well-known option for these situations is to define a local exception class inside the global class. These allow internal exceptions (exceptions raised within the class itself) to be handled without the need for another global DDIC object.

Web Dynpro ABAP: New Customizing UI with UI Guideline FIORI

Introduction

The UIs of your Web Dynpro ABAP applications (including those built with Floorplan Manager) don’t always meet your exact requirements and you must adapt them accordingly.

And, you as an administrator, can make these UI adaptations using the customizing UI.

Until recently, the customizing UI had plenty of functionality but wasn’t the easiest to work with. Things have changed! Starting with SAP_UI 7.54 (for ABAP 1909), there is a totally new UI for customizing.

This UI is only available with UI guideline FIORI. Of course, the adapted applications can also be used with other guidelines.

Debug tips about VL014 “Error delivery split because the partners are different”

When using TCODE VL10B to create a delivery order based on one specific STO order, the user got the Error message of VL014 which is “Item &: delivery split because the partners are different”. All items share the same customer and related split configuration been checked without issue, those items should be group into one delivery order instead of split by items which increase lots of unnecessary further operations.

ABAP Restful Application Programming Model with Legacy BAPI

Unmanaged Or Managed?

While Sap was constructing the new RAP model, it made a distinction between managed and unmanaged scenarios. Managed means completely new and Greenfield implementation(no legacy logic).

If you have to use existing BAPI or function, SAP is recommended to turn to the unmanaged scenario in RAP model.

SALV: ALV Quickstart Snippets ๐Ÿš€

The object model for the SAP List Viewer (ALV) is an object-oriented encapsulation of SAP’s much older ALV tool. Today class CL_SALV_TABLE remains widely used for displaying simple, two-dimensional ALV grids.

Get your ALV up and running in no time using this collection of shorts snippets covering most of the basic requirements.

Note: For simplicity’s sake error handling of SALV errors (subclasses of exception class CX_SALV_ERROR) have been left out. Make sure to implement appropriate exception handling for productive code.
