Defining Enhancements 

Use

For technical reasons, the functions delivered with Mobile Asset Management only contain part of the back-end functions from the Plant Maintenance (PM) and Customer Service (CS)components. To adapt Mobile Asset Management to special customer processes, there are enhancement options on the back end, the front end, and the middleware.

The enhancement options on the back end are described in the following section. For more information on the enhancement options on the mobile devices, see the front-end cookbook.

Prerequisites

●     Knowledge of ABAP programming

●     Knowledge of implementing BAdIs

Procedure

...

       1.      Create enhancements with the BAdI implementation maintenance (transaction SE19).

See Overview of BAdI Implementations.

       2.      You can deactivate the standard methods in Customizing for Plant Maintenance and Customer Service under Maintenance and Service Processing ® Mobile Asset Management ® Make General Settings if only the BAdI, and no standard methods, should be executed.

Deactivating the standard methods is only advisable if you cannot use the standard methods for your use case. In this case, the SAP Support team may be unable to provide help with any ensuing problems.

Result

Once the BAdIs have been implemented and activated on the back end, the following activities can be performed:

●     Copy own data to the front end

●     Copy own data back from the front end

●     Execute activities with data available on the back end

The front-end application must be adapted again before the data can be displayed or processed on the mobile device.
