Relative Navigation
The relative path navigation variant can be used, for example, for delivering content across several directories.
To activate relative path navigation for the portal in Web Dynpro ABAP, use the portal manager ( IF_WD_PORTAL_INTEGRATION , method NAVIGATE_RELATIVE).
You can generate a template using the wizard , in which you then enter values.
call method lr_port_manager->navigate_to_object exporting base_url = navigation_data-base_url levels_up = levels_up path = pathlist navigation_mode = navigation_data-navigation_mode window_features = navigation_data-window_features window_name = navigation_data-window_name history_mode = navigation_data-history_mode target_title = navigation_data-target_title context_url = navigation_data-context_url use_sap_launcher = abap_true business_parameters = bus_parameter_list launcher_parameters = launcher_parameter_list.
Relative navigation can be used from the defined starting point.
