In this step, define what kind of report service you want to implement and all the functions it should comprise.
If you want to implement a reporting scenario that you already used as an iView based on Web Dynpro for JAVA in the Business Package for Employee Self-Service
(up to and including 1.41), proceed as follows:
Find all classes with the naming convention CL_HRXSS_*
(for country-specific services, with naming convention CL_HRXSS_xx*
(where xx
is your country identifier, e.g. DE
for
Germany):
These services implement an interface with the method PROCESS_ACTION
from which all functionality in the service is executed.
Familiarize yourself with the functionality called by the different stages in this method, according to action type:
Generally speaking, the functionality will fetch data, run a report, and produce a form. Knowing what your service is trying to achieve will help you in the next steps, as you reproduce this functionality in your FPM Application.
