Use

The following is a typical situation illustrating the usefulness of object-based navigation:

• A source iView displays a customer list.

• A Customer business object is created with the operation Details .

• Two navigation targets are assigned to the operation Details :

  • Customer Details , showing contact information about the selected customer

  • Customer Stock Status , showing information relating to the customer's orders

• Two users, A and B, having different roles, click an OBN link for business object Customer , operation Details .

  A is a sales person, B is a sales manager and a sales person.

• The navigation triggered for user A returns Customer Details .

  The navigation triggered for user B returns Customer Stock Status . User B is allowed to see both targets, but the sales manager role has the higher priority.
