The views Tools and Projects in the work area are mainly used for developing BAPIs.

Depending on the development object selected in the hierarchy display, in the Tools view, the following tools and navigation options are provided:

• Direct access to the Business Object Builder, Function Builder and ABAP Dictionary.
• List generator to create lists of BAPIs using specified selection criteria.

In the Project view you can create projects to assist you with following and documenting the development procedures below:

• Implementing new BAPIs (for internal SAP use, BAPI developments must be carried out and documented using a project in the BAPI Explorer)
• Changing released BAPIs (only for SAP internal use)
• Requesting a new business object type (only for SAP internal use)

For each of these projects there is a project form that takes you step by step through the entire development process and provides direct navigation options to the required development tools and information.

Within the project management you can save and delete your projects and you can edit the projects managed by other users by selecting Other users.

If you have installed Microsoft Internet Explorer Version 4.0 on the front-end computer, you can print the project form using the standard SAPgui print function.
