Creating Form Repeater Component Configurations for Biz Cards

The following procedure describes how you create the form repeater UIBB component configuration required for a biz card of your infotype to display it in the object profile page.

You need a form repeater component configuration for the following instances:

For the dataset view in the infotype-specific page.
For displaying a biz card for your infotype in the object profile page.

Note
For figures of form repeater component configurations and the prerequisites, see Creating FPM Configurations.

End of the note.

For a procedure for creating a form repeater configuration for the dataset view, see Creating Form Repeater Component Configurations.

Procedure

Choose transaction SE80.
In the Repository Browser, choose Web Dynpro Comp./Intf. (= Web Dynpro Component or Interface) and enter the FPM component name FPM_FORM_REPEATER_UIBB.
Position the cursor on the component name and choose Create/Change Configuration with a right-mouse click.
In the Editor for the Web Dynpro ABAP Component Configuration, enter a new configuration ID and choose New.

Example
If you want to follow the SAP naming convention, you enter a configuration ID such as ZHRPAO_OVR_FORMREP_IT****_XX. **** stands for the infotype number. The XX stands for international infotype and should be replaced by a country ID such as US if the infotype is country-specific.

End of the example.
In the Create Configuration dialog box, enter a description and choose OK.
In the Select Package dialog box, enter your customer-specific package and choose OK.
Enter the required Feeder Class:
- CL_HRPAO_GUIBB_PA_FORMREP for infotypes for employee data
- CL_HRPAO_GUIBB_OM_FORMREP for infotypes for organization data.

Choose Edit Parameters and edit fields as listed in the table below and choose OK.

Field	Value/Input
For Biz Card	X (Check)
Component	For infotypes for employee data: HRPAD For infotypes for organization data: HRPD
Object Name	Enter the name of the infotype from the BOL model: IT** (** = the 4-digit infotype number), for example `IT9987`
Editable	Leave unchecked

You are now on the Component Configuration screen.

In the Form Repeater UIBB Schema, a default configuration is already provided and contains:

Swap UIBB: Do not change.
A generic field is provided by the element VALID_FROM_UNTIL.
Edit and delete buttons.
In the General Settings Additional Settings , the following settings are available:
- Layout = 8/1
- Separator: Empty Space

In General Settings, in Group Field, enter a field name for the grouping description displayed in the biz card.

Example
For example, for the Addresses infotype (0006) biz card, Group Field = STEXT (the subtype name) is used.

End of the example.
In the Form Repeater UIBB Schema, choose Add Element to add the infotype fields that you want to display in the biz card.

Recommendation
SAP recommends to add 4 fields to ensure the consistency of the layout.

End of the recommendation.
In the menu bar of the component configuration screen, choose Attributes.
In the attributes for each field that you want to display in the biz card (Element), enter Display Type = Text View.
Choose Save.
