Background documentation Making Services Available: Standard Configuration Locate the document in its SAP Library structure

This document provides an overview of the configuration objects that SAP supplies for making services available:

·        Types
A type comprises a group of services for a specific purpose, for example, for the CLP.

·        Command groups
These are assigned to the types. They group all services (link commands) and subordinate groups of services that the type provides.

·        Link commands
Each link command provides the link to launch a service.

Types and Command Groups

The SAP standard system contains the following types for making services available:

Type

Use

clpType

Making services available in the following iViews:

·        CLP

·        Room Member List

The contextmenu_commandgroup clpGroup is assigned to clpType.
This command group corresponds to the Collaboration menu of the respective iView.
It comprises the following command groups:

·        clpGWGroup

·        clpSyncGroup

·        clpAsyncGroup

·        clpWorkflowGroup

Each subordinate command group groups the link commands for the associated areas (groupware, synchronous and asynchronous collaboration, and workflow) (see the overview below).

userDetailsType

Provides services as links that can be launched directly on the user interface of the User Details iView;

The contextmenu_commandgroup userDetailsGroup is assigned to userDetailsType.
This command group corresponds to the group of links in the iView. 
It comprises the following Link Commands:

·        peopleGWSendMailLink (Send E-Mail)

·        peopleGWAppLink (Create Appointment)

·        peopleGWShowAvailLink (Show Availability)

·        peopleSyncInstantMessageLink (Send Instant Message)

Note
Please note that userDetailsGroup must not contain any subgroups.

userType

Making the services available in the context menu for users;
The type applies to all applications in the Knowledge Management and Collaboration area that display users and allow services for users.

You can assign the following configuration objects to userType:

·        leftclick_command: peopleDetailsLink
The command allows the user to launch the User Details iView by clicking the user name.
In the User Details iView that is launched, this command is not active, because launching the User Details iView again makes no sense.

·        contextmenu_commandgroup: userGroup
This corresponds to the context menu for the user name in the User Details iView. You can structure the context menu in the same way as the Collaboration menu on the CLP.
Link Commands

The SAP standard system contains two types of Link Commands for making services available. Each link command type is identified by a separate Java class and has a specific purpose:

·        Link commands for services in the Collaboration menu (of the CLP and the member list)
