BAdI: Web Item "List of Documents"

Use

This Business Add-In (BAdI) can be utilized in the usage of documents on BW objects.

With this BADI you are able to change HTML created from "Document Lists" items or specify it entirely yourself.

Specifically you can change the HTML for

• the context (the selections),

• the "additional functions" pushbutton,

• the document lists

• the complete item

Use:

• Display document content instead of only showing links.

Standard settings

The BAdI can be used more than once and is not dependent on a filter.

After you call the IMG activity, the system displays a dialog box where you enter a name for the implementation.

If implementations of this Business Add-In have already been created, the system displays them in a dialog box. You then choose one of them by choosing Create, and continue as follows:

1. In the dialog box, enter a name for the implementation of the Add-In and choose Create.
The system displays the initial screen for creating Business Add-In implementations.

2. On this screen, enter a short description for you implementation in the Implementation Short Text field.

3. If you choose the Interface tab, you will notice that the system has filled in the Name of the Implementing Class field automatically, by assigning a class name based on the name of your implementation.

5. To edit a method, double-click its name.

6. Enter your implementation code between the method ~. aund endmethod. statements.

7. Save and activate your code. Navigate back to the Change Implementation screen.

When the application program is executed, the system carries out the code in the method you wrote.
