Consumption of CDS Views in Freestyle UI5 Applications

Introduction

There has been the convenient option of creating CDS views in Eclipse and publishing them via annotation on the SAP Gateway since SAP Netweaver 7.4 SP05. Using the available templates in the SAP WebIDE, you can easily generate an interface for the CDS views. This creates a complete SAP Fiori application with just a few lines of code. But the disadvantages quickly become clear in the attempt to expand the application generated this way:

Workflow: Purchase Order/Requisition Approvers Simulation

Have you wondered how, after you’ve finalized your release strategy configuration (for Purchase Order and Requisition as an example), how the approvers for each code are ACTUALLY found?

Understanding ABAP Unit Testing Fundamentals – Overview for Beginners

In this blog series, I will share my understanding and knowledge about ABAP Unit Testing and TDD approach. As this itself is a vast topic, I will first begin with Unit testing fundamentals, then delve into testing framework. Later I will write about TDD, its necessity and illustrate how to achieve it practically. The blog series is structured in such a way that it goes from scratch, and later goes in-depth into the concepts.

ABAP Development in VS Code

When I started learning ABAP I found myself getting increasingly frustrated with the speed at which the SAP GUI for Java responded and I looked for other options, this is how I found that you can mount your SAP system as a filesystem in VS Code. This blog will cover how you can get started with developing ABAP from VS Code.

Note: If you are not running Netweaver v7.51+ you will have to install a patch that can be found as part of the first plugin install options.
