Features

You access this iView by selecting a particular item in your item dashboard.

The item dashboard is located in the portfolio management and item management contexts. When you open a single item, the name at the top of this screen is Overview.

When you save the item data that had you entered during the item creation phase, the item data appears on this Overview screen for a particular item. You can enter, change, or delete data in this view.

The overview is categorized in trays. You can determine which fields are available in the trays in Customizing, by choosing SAP xApp Resource and Portfolio Management (SAP xRPM) → Global Customizing → Global Field Settings.

The trays are the same as those in the Create New Item iView, but the Item Overview iView also contains additionally the Current Decision Point Status field:

Field Services

You can apply the following types of field services to item fields:

·        Questionnaire

·        Scoreboard

·        Object link

The Questionnaire and Scoreboard field services allow you to dynamically call data for the corresponding fields. For example, after carrying out a questionnaire for an item, the result of the questionnaire is stored in an item field.

To determine which questionnaire or scoreboard is to be used by items in a bucket, you make settings in the bucket attributes in the portal. For more information, see the Field Service Configuration section in Create New Bucket.

The Object link field service allows you to dynamically call content for item fields from the back-end system.

You can modify the standard links between a field service type and an item field in Customizing for SAP xApp Resource and Portfolio Management (SAP xRPM), by choosing Global Customizing → Global Field Settings → Check SAP Field Configuration.

You can also define your own links between a field service type and an item field. To make these settings, in Customizing for SAP xApp Resource and Portfolio Management (SAP xRPM), choose Global Customizing → Global Field Settings → Define Custom Field Configuration.

Prerequisites

●      You have configured the item dashboard to have the Proj_Description field as a link in Customizing, by choosing SAP xApp Resource and Portfolio Management (SAP xRPM) → Global Customizing → Global Field Settings.

Optional Settings

You determine which fields are displayed and which properties are mandatory in Customizing for ABAP field UI configuration for the Portfolio Item API.
