Function documentationObject-Based Navigation for ESS (WDA) in SAP NWBC

 

Object-based navigation (OBN) is implemented for application-to-application navigation in Employee Self-Service (WDA).

Features

The Employee Self Service PFCG based composite and single roles also contain the target application (called application) that needs to be launched in case of an OBN call by a specific application (calling application). These OBN-based applications (called applications) that are defined in the PFCG role are set to status Invisible so that they do not appear directly in the menu but rather get launched only when requested by another application (calling application).

These applications are associated to the method call of the Employee Business Object.

The calling application generally defines OBN-based settings via a Launchpad Role/Instance where settings such as the System Alias (i.e. the target system) and where to search for the OBN object (User Set of Roles or Source Role) can be defined.
