Function documentationBusiness Context Viewer in Single-Object Processing

 

In Master Data Governance you can use the Business Context Viewer (BCV) to display context-related information on the current business object in single-object processing applications such as USMD_OVP_GEN. The system displays the information in an area at the right side of the screen called side panel.

Prerequisites

Business Functions

  • FND, Business Context Viewer Main Application (/BCV/MAIN)

  • FND, Business Context Viewer Main Application 2 (/BCV/MAIN_1)

  • FND, Business Context Viewer NWBC Side Panel (/BCV/NWBC_SIDEPANEL)

Business Content

You have activated the BC set BCV Content for MDG Framework (MDGAF_BCV) in transaction SCPR20.

If you want to pass on information on the current business object (for example, the object key) to BCV for which no BCV meanings exist yet, you have to create appropriate meanings.

If you want to display information on the business object for which no BCV business content exists yet, you have to create appropriate content. You have to assign this content to BCV context key MDGAF_SOM or to a context key you have created before.

For more information, see Configuring Business Context Viewer (BCV).
