The Enterprise Services Repository Browser (ES Repository Browser) is located in the ABAP back-end system, and provides a view on the data in the Enterprise Services Repository. The ES Repository Browser lets you create, change, check, activate, and delete proxies for all object types that have been modeled in the Enterprise Services Repository. For example, service interfaces.

Starting the Enterprise Services Repository Browser

  2. Choose Enterprise Services Browser.

    The software component versions are displayed.

    Note Note

Features

The ES Repository Browser displays the structure of the objects in the Enterprise Services Repository.

The top-level nodes of the tree represent the software component versions. When you expand a software component version, the namespaces available for that software component version are displayed.

You can expand a namespace to display the objects available for that namespace.

Objects of each type are displayed in a separate node. For example, message types, or data types. Expand a node to display all the objects of that type.

Note Note

To display detailed attributes for an object, double-click that object. The information is displayed in a separate editor (outside of the ES Repository Browser).
