Verifying Catalogs for Targets and TilesLocate this document in the navigation structure

You want to verify the catalogs for target mappings (targets) and app launchers (tiles).

Prerequisites

You understand how target mapping and intents works.

For more information, see Launchpad Navigation and Configuring Target Mapping.

Context

If you are unable navigate to an application in SAP Fiori Launchpad, it may imply that there is no matching target mapping assigned to the user’s role. In this case, you must assign the catalog having the matching target mapping to the user or create a matching target to the catalog that is assigned to the user.

The SAP Fiori Launchpad Designer identifies matching targets for every tile in a catalog or a set of catalogs. If there are no matching targets, you can create a target mapping with the intent that is missing in the same catalog or any other preferred catalogs. This catalog or set of catalogs can then be assigned to the user’s PFCG role.

To confirm that the catalogs assigned to the user or role has a valid intent, proceed as follows:

Procedure

  1. To add the catalogs to the Catalog Collection, drag and drop a catalog in the drop zone. A Catalog Collection is a section available in the left-hand side panel to collect the catalogs for verification. This section is available only for the Catalogs tabs in the left-hand side panel. Using the icons pin and unpin, you can pin and unpin the catalogs in the Catalog Collection. By default, the catalogs are pinned. When you unpin, you can remove the catalog only from the Catalog Collection section.
  2. Select a catalog from the Catalog Collection. A list of intents with intent status for the catalogs in the Catalog Collection appears in the content area. The following icons are available for the status of an intent:
    Status Description
    Indicates that the catalogs in the Catalog Collection contain at least one app launcher and one target mapping for that particular intent
    Indicates that the catalogs in the Catalog Collection do not contain either an app launcher or a target mapping for that particular intent
  3. Select an intent from the list to view the following:
    View Description
    Catalog Title and ID A target mapping table and an app launcher table appear in the content area. Both the tables display the title and ID of the catalogs from the Catalog Collection for the selected intent.
    Associated Catalogs Choose the icon in the target mapping table or app launcher table to view the associated catalogs of the selected intent from the catalogs list in left-hand side panel.
    Tiles of the selected catalog Tiles that contain the selected intent in the selected catalog appear in the content area below the Intent and Status list. To view all the tiles of the selected catalog and to add a tile in the catalog, choose (Display More) icon.
