Setting up NavigationLocate this document in the navigation structure

Context

Navigation between launchpad applications is based on intents. To set up navigation, perform the following steps:

Procedure

  1. Identify an application that you would like to use as a navigation target in transaction LPD_CUST.
  2. Identify a semantic object you would like to refer to. You can either choose one of the semantic objects shipped by SAP, or create a new semantic object.
  3. Create a catalog in the launchpad designer or use an existing one.
  4. Create and configure a target mapping. In the launchpad designer, you add a target mapping to the catalog. In the target mapping configuration, you map an intent to a navigation target.
  5. Create and configure an app launcher tile. In the launchpad designer, you add a dynamic or static app launcher tile to the catalog. In the tile configuration, you enter meta data (for example title, description and icon) and define the navigation by specifying semantic object and action.
  6. Assign the catalog that contains the app launcher tile and the target mapping to a role in role maintenance (transaction PFCG).
