Function documentationAdaptation of the Web Applications in QIM

 

The applications in QIM with which you can process issues or activities are based on various floorplans of the Floorplan Manager for Web Dynpro ABAP (FPM).

Depending on the floorplan, various adaptations are possible.

Features

Personalization and Customizing

In all applications, end users can use personalization and administrators can use customizing to make changes at field level. For example, you can hide individual fields or default values.

Note Note

You can also store a default value for the source system of reference objects in the user master record under the user parameter /IAM/DEF_SRC_SYSTEM.

End of the note.

In customizing, other adaptations are possible, for example, the addition of decorative UI elements. For more information, see the documentation for Web Dynpro ABAP under Personalization and Customizing.

Configuration

More extensive adaptations are possible by configuration in the Flexible User Interface Designer (FLUID) of the Floorplan Manager:

  • The application for the guided creation of an issue is based on the Floorplan for Guided Activity (GAF) in FPM. Here, for example, you can hide individual steps or change the sequence of the steps.

  • The applications for advanced creation and quick creation of an issue, and for displaying or changing an issue or activity are based on the Floorplan for the Overview Page (OVP). Here, for example, you can hide individual assignment blocks, change the sequence of the blocks, or display them in stacked form (also possible in personalization).

  • You can add help texts for Web Dynpro applications to all applications.

  • Using context-based adaptations (CBAs) in the Floorplan Manager, you can create different configurations, for example, for different partner roles in QIM.

Note Note

If you want to include additional fields for new quantity codes, timepoint codes, or text types on the interface, you must integrate the new codes or text types in the respective feeder parameters for the FPM configuration.

To improve the performance of the Web application, note that you should not add any unnecessary codes or text types to the feeder parameters.

End of the note.

For more information about the procedure, for example, see Web Dynpro Configuration.

Field Control

You can control attributes for individual fields (for example, required entry field, display) in Customizing without having to directly change the interface.

For more information, see Adaptation Using Field Control.

More Information

  • As well as the general Web Dynpro functions, you have the option of adapting QIM-specific terminology by making settings for terminology redefinition in Customizing for QIM.

  • In addition to these adaptations to the user interface, you can also extend the functionality of the QIM applications by defining a user status.
