GUIBBs: List ATS and Tree Components

There are several new and changed features for the List ATS and Tree components:
  • Streaming Support for Export/Download Function

    This feature enables you to export big data using the Export function found in two of the Generic User Interface Building Blocks (GUIBBs): the List ATS and Tree components. You can export data in several different file formats; currently, the streaming service is available for exporting in the Comma Separated Values (CSV) format.

    For general information regarding streaming support for export/download operations, see the SAP Note 2776967 Information published on SAP site.

  • PDF/A Support for Export/Download Function

    This feature enables you to export data compliant with the PDF/A standard (an ISO-standardized version of the PDF format) using the Export function found in the List ATS and Tree components. This feature is enabled by default.

    To fulfill the PDF/A standard, a so-called Output Intent, referencing an International Color Consortium (ICC) profile, must be embedded into each document that is exported. For this purpose, the following profile is leveraged:Adobe RGB (1998) ICC profile, Copyright 2000 Adobe Systems Incorporated.

    For more information, see the SAP Note 2377802 Information published on SAP site.

  • Multi-editor Cells

    This feature enables you to view (and export) more than one UI element in a list/table cell.

    For more information, see Multi-Editor Cells.

  • Grouping of Columns

    This feature enables you to group several columns together under a header. A Header Group button for this feature is available in FLUID in the List ATS Schema; once you have created a new header, you can drag and drop columns underneath it.

  • Slider for Resizing Table Independent of Personalization

    This feature enables the user to view more or less rows using the slider at the bottom of a table even if personalization is not enabled.

  • Quick Help for Column Headers

    This feature enables you to create explanation texts for column headers to be viewed by a user at runtime. The new field Explanation Header is available in the Attributes panel for this purpose. Explanation texts can also be created for the cells within a table.

  • Data Change Log

    This feature enables administrators to change data in the Tree UIBB by editing the parameters CT_DATA and EV_DATA_CHANGED in the feeder class method IF_FPM_GUIBB_TREE~GET_DATA( ). These changes can be logged via parameter IO_DATA_CHANGE_LOG.
