A CHIP (Collaborative Human Interface Part) is a small, widget-type, encapsulated, stateful piece of software that can be combined in a layout with other CHIPs to form a page or side panel.

Authorizations

To create IFrame CHIPs you need authorization S_PB_CHIP; to create Web Dynpro CHIPs you need developer authorization (S_DEVELOP) for OBJTYPE = WDCP.

  • If you want to embed a Web Dynpro component into your page, you need a Web Dynpro CHIP.

    1. Depending on how the Web Dynpro component is to be used as a CHIP, you have to carry out different preparatory steps in your component.

      For more information, see Preparing the Web Dynpro Component

    2. Then create a CHIP for your Web Dynpro component.

      For more information, see Creating Web Dynpro CHIPs.
