Once the CHIP has been registered in the CHIP catalog, you can use it in the Fiori
launchpad designer to create custom catalogs.
Context
For this, the catalog /UI2/FLPD_CATALOG must be
enhanced. The catalog is stored as a Web Dynpro configuration of the Web Dynpro
component /UI2/CHIP_CATALOG_CONFIG called
/UI2/FLPD_CATALOG.
Proceed as follows to enhance this catalog:
Procedure
- Start Repository Info System (transaction
SE84) in the back-end ABAP
system.
- Open the node .
- Enter CUSTOMIZE_COMPONENT and choose
Test / Execute.
CUSTOMIZE_COMPONENT changes the catalog on the
Customizing (client-specific) layer. Do not change the configuration layer as
this is the UI add-on standard delivered version.
- In the browser window, enter
/UI2/FLPD_CATALOG as the
Configuration ID.
- Choose New when you enhance an existing configuration for the first
time. Afterwards, continue in change mode.
- In the node tree of the configuration, enter the value of your CHIP as a new
value in the list.
Make sure that you start the name of the CHIP with the prefix
X-SAP-UI2-CHIP. For example, if you
registered a CHIP MYCHIP in transaction
/UI2/CHIP, the value of the node
tree must be
X-SAP-UI2-CHIP:MYCHIP.
