As a MiniApp (SAP Library - ALV Grid Control (BC-SRV-ALV))

As a MiniApp

Use

You want to display a report from the SAP System in the Web browser und assign it to a role. This means that the report is not to be integrated into a MiniApp of your own but started directly as a MiniApp itself.

Procedure

There are two ways to display the MiniALV as a separate MiniApp in the Workplace:

You assign a URL in which the MiniALV service is started to a role.
You create a MiniApp that uses the MiniALV service.

Coding the Call in a URL

You start the MiniALV using a URL for your report. The URL has the following form:

<WEBSERVER>/minialv/!?report=<report name>&<p1>=<w1>&...&<pn>=<wn>

You specify the proxy report and additional service parameters (<p1> to <pn>) in this URL.

Caution

In add-on systems you use the service minialv_addon instead of minialv in the URL.

Up to Release 4.6C, the only way to assign a MiniApp to a role was using this URL.

Note

You must specify a placeholder in the URL for the path of the Web server. Read the section The URL in the Workplace in Calling the Internet Service.

The URL has been assigned to a role in transaction PFCG . You can do this by choosing Goto ® MiniApps until component release 4.6C. (See also: Assigning MiniApps).

Note

For more information on creating roles, see Create Roles in Users and Roles (BC-CCM-USR).

Creating Your Own MiniApp

Starting with Release 4.6D, you do no longer need to code the URL for your report. Using transaction SE80 you create a MiniApp that uses the MiniALV service as the object of a development class (see MiniApp Maintenance). Instead of coding the call of your report with the MiniALV service in a URL, you enter the parameters and their values on a maintenance screen. You can then assign the MiniApp to a role using a MiniApp catalog in transaction PFCG .

Result

If the role you have created is assigned to a user, the MiniApp becomes automatically visible in the area beside the LaunchPad.
