Implementation of Collaboration ComponentsLocate this document in the navigation structure

Collaboration components allow you to add collaboration functionality to your business scenario. This allows you to expose business objects such as customer sales records or other business context artifacts to an SAP Jam group so that you can share relevant information with other colleagues and work together on business cases.

This section describes the implementation process for the collaboration components if you decide to build this collaboration. The implementation of collaboration components is optional depending on your business requirements.

Prerequisites
Prerequisites Remarks/Subsequent Steps
You have followed the implementation sequence for ABAP Social Media Integration (ABAP SMI).

If you use SAP NetWeaver AS for ABAP Platform 7.02, you must install SPS 9 or higher.

For more information, see Implementation of ABAP Social Media Integration (ABAP SMI).
You have installed an IDE capable of supporting the creation of programs in JavaScript (for example, Eclipse), as well as the SAPUI5 library as a plugin into your IDE.

Required only if you are using the collaboration components to build your own HTML5 applications.

You have reviewed and followed any instructions specified in SAP Note 1875686 Information published on SAP site. Required only if you are using the collaboration components and have set up SAP NetWeaver 7.0 EHP2 with SPS 13 and lower.
You have reviewed and followed any instructions specified in SAP Note 1582870 Information published on SAP site. Required only if you are using the collaboration components and have set up SAP NetWeaver 7.0 EHP2 with SPS 9 or SAP NetWeaver 7.0 EHP3 with SPS 4.
You have reviewed and followed any instructions specified in SAP Note 2001123 Information published on SAP site. Required only if you are using collaboration components.
To integrate the Share feature if your application setup requires additional Business Add-Ins (BAdIs) to set up key mapping or dynamic determination of the OData details, on your back-end system server, you have set up the user interface add-on for SAP NetWeaver 1.0 SPS 9 or higher and implemented all mandatory notes.
Example The SAP CRM My Accounts app requires this setup to allow users to share business objects in SAP Jam.
