Authenticationcoverage by ecosystem revisedReassessed against the graph (check:capabilities): no community artifact on the UI5 door provides this capability by an edge; the middlewares the text named provide ui5-build-tooling, and the only sample on the door is not a presence. what_core_does stays, so the core remains present.Capability,
Authorizationcoverage by ecosystem revisedReassessed against the graph (check:capabilities): the note claimed every provider behind the door is an SAP service, a statement about the corpus that goes stale, and did not name the fresh btp-oauth provider. Coverage state unchanged: only SAP-official services count behind this door.Capability,
Browsing table datacore coverage revisedReassessed against the graph (check:capabilities): the note described the providers as SAP GUI programs only, and browser apps, an IDE extension and a desktop editor have arrived; the state stays core-and-community.Capability,
Calling a service by handcore coverage revisedReassessed against the graph (check:capabilities): abap-odata-test arrived after the block was assessed and changes the kinds of community answer; the state stays core-and-community.Capability,
Certificate managementcore coverage, coverage by ecosystem revisedReassessed against the graph (check:capabilities): the note was an absence claim about providers; the new SAP provider btp-custom-domain is sap-official, so core-only still holds.Capability,
Change promotioncore coverage, id, ecosystems, name revisedPublic feedback issue #9. The ABAP name is kept in framing_by_ecosystem.abap; the default name and description now state the cross-door concern.Capability,
Change trackingcore coverage, coverage by ecosystem revisedReassessed against the graph (check:capabilities): removed a count, and linked the entry the graph holds instead of its repository.Capability,
Code formattingcore coverage revisedReassessed against the graph (check:capabilities): the abap2UI5 playground provides this capability and the text never named it; ABAP FS named for the kind of VS Code integration.Capability,
Code reviewcore coverage revisedReassessed against the graph (check:capabilities): providers that arrived after the 2026-09-13 assessment (abapTimeMachine, abapOpenReview, a transport review app) shape the answer; state unchanged, core-and-community.Capability,
Configurationcoverage by ecosystem revisedReassessed against the graph (check:capabilities): config-management arrived as a provider after the block was last looked at; the state stays core-and-community.Capability,
Data modellingcore coverage, coverage by ecosystem revisedReassessed against the graph (check:capabilities): independent ABAP providers (CDS Analyser, CDS field mapping, acds) now provide this capability on the ABAP door.Capability,
Database connectorscoverage by ecosystem revisedReassessed against the graph (check:capabilities): the note counted one entry behind the door; it now names the driver and SAP HANA, which now provides the capability on this door. State unchanged.Capability,
Debuggingcore coverage, coverage by ecosystem revisedReassessed against the graph (check:capabilities): seven ABAP providers newer than the block were never named. State stays core-and-community.Capability,
Driving the SAP GUIcore coverage revisedReassessed against the graph (check:capabilities): removed the count and the popularity wording, and named the kinds, including batch input (jrgkraus-tool-bi) and SAP's sample, which the text never named.Capability,
Editor supportcore coverage, coverage by ecosystem revisedReassessed against the graph (check:capabilities): the providers behind the UI5 door are SAP's (UI5 Language Assistant, and SAP Build Code and SAP Web IDE Full-Stack, which serve ui5). The community SAPUI5 Extension is an entry in the graph but has no provides edge to this capability.Capability,
Extensibilitycore coverage revisedReassessed against the graph (check:capabilities): a provider of a second kind, a discovery report for existing enhancement points, arrived after the block was last assessed and the text never named it. State unchanged (core-and-community).Capability,
Finding a transaction codecore coverage revisedReassessed against the graph (check:capabilities): sapgui arrived as a second kind, one that reads the system's own menu, and the prose counted entries.Capability,
Generatorscore coverage, coverage by ecosystem, framing by ecosystem revisedReassessed against the graph (check:capabilities): the atlas holds these entries, so the links point at them and not at their repositories (docs/WRITING.md section 4).Capability,
IDE provisioningcore coverage revisedReassessed against the graph (check:capabilities): eclipsadt-o-mat arrived after the last look and the text never named it; state unchanged.Capability,
Importing and exporting table datacore coverage revisedReassessed against the graph (check:capabilities): the count of sample repositories goes stale as providers arrive, and the ABAP backend importer and the Excel add-in change the shape of the answer, so the note names those kinds. The ABAP state stays core-and-community.Capability,
Input validationcoverage by ecosystem revisedReassessed against the graph (check:capabilities): no artifact carries a provides edge to this capability for the UI5 door, because openui5-validator provides ui5-data-binding. The state follows the edges, and the core stays present through the block's sourced what_core_does.Capability,
Knowing the maintenance status of a releasecore coverage, coverage by ecosystem revisedui5-task-check-eocp, from public feedback issue #6, is the first independent provider on the UI5 door, beside SAP's SAPUI5 version overview.Capability,
Loading a warehousecore coverage, coverage by ecosystem revisedReassessed against the graph (check:capabilities): ERPL is a provider the text never named, and it loads from ABAP systems outside BW routines. State unchanged.Capability,
Local developmentcoverage by ecosystem, coverage by flavor revisedReassessed against the graph (check:capabilities): the note counted providers and claimed an absence about who has built something, which goes stale as providers arrive.Capability,
Loggingcoverage by ecosystem revisedReassessed against the graph (check:capabilities): the state is now community-only and the block needed to say what the community adds.Capability,
Maintaining table entriescore coverage revisedReassessed against the graph (check:capabilities): open-abap-open-table-maintenance, a community-org package served from an HTTP handler for one table named in its code, was not named; the browser editor is now linked. State unchanged.Capability,
Model visualisationcoverage by ecosystem revisedReassessed against the graph (check:capabilities): abapGraph and abap-search-tools-ui arrived after the ABAP block was last looked at and the text never named them. No state changed.Capability,
Searchcore coverage, coverage by ecosystem revisedReassessed against the graph (check:capabilities): the only independent provider behind the ABAP door is ZC8A_001, an artifact of type sample, which is not a presence; the core stays because what_core_does is sourced.Capability,
Searching code in a systemcore coverage revisedReassessed against the graph (check:capabilities): the note named no kind of provider, and five providers newer than the 2026-09-14 assessment shape the answer. State unchanged.Capability,
Seed datacore coverage, coverage by ecosystem revisedReassessed against the graph (check:capabilities): no artifact provides seed-data for the UI5 door; the two tools the sentence named provide ui5-testing. The core stays present on the sourced what_core_does. The tools stay on the graph under ui5-testing.Capability,
Source controlcore coverage revisedReassessed against the graph (check:capabilities): providers added since 2026-08-31 change the kinds the community adds beyond the in-system git client; the state stays core-and-community.Capability,
Static analysiscore coverage revisedReassessed against the graph (check:capabilities): the block named none of the providers that arrived after 2026-08-31. State unchanged, core-and-community still matches the providers.Capability,
Telemetrycoverage by ecosystem, coverage by flavor revisedReassessed against the graph (check:capabilities): removes a universal claim about the providers that goes stale as they arrive.Capability,
Unit testingcore coverage, coverage by flavor revisedReassessed against the graph (check:capabilities): the note counted the artifacts and said they were in staging; both are in the graph now and are named.Capability,

ABAP Development Tools for VS CodepublishedA Devtoberfest 2026 session on ABAP Development Tools for VS Code: where the extension sits after the ABAP Workbench and ABAP Development Tools for Eclipse, the ADT language server both editors share, and what the releases since May 2026 cover. The demo installs the extension, creates a destination, opens, creates and activates objects, runs ATC and ABAP Unit, and names the object types, domains among them, for which a developer still goes to Eclipse or SAP GUI. It also opens the extension's settings to turn on the ADT MCP Server and shows the tools a chat can call, with the object search and source code search tools listed as planned.Talk,

Always in Sync — Field-level and event-driven side effects for reactive UIs in RAPpublishedA Devtoberfest 2026 session on side effects in RAP — the declarations in a behaviour definition that tell a draft UI to reload what a change affected, instead of leaving the user to refresh the browser. Field-level side effects recalculate a total price from a determination when a booking fee is entered, including across the association from a child item up to the root entity, and a permissions side effect toggles a description field between read-only and editable; a global side effect is attached to a determine action, fires when the user presses Enter, and only one may exist per business object, which is why the prepare action and a second determine action cannot both carry it. The last part starts a long-running calculation through the background processing framework and raises a business event that the behaviour definition lists as a side effect source and the projection makes public, so the Fiori app is updated with a notification when the work finishes, whether it was triggered by the user or by an application job — the transactional model and the async processing side the edges rest on.Talk,
Bridging Python and SAP HANA: Inside the sqlalchemy-hana Open-Source DialectpublishedA Devtoberfest 2026 data-track session (DAT-21) in which one of the maintainers of sqlalchemy-hana, the open-source SQLAlchemy dialect published in SAP's GitHub organisation, opens up what sits between Python and SAP HANA. It walks the five dialect classes that render statements, types, DDL, identifiers and sequences, and the HANA specifics they absorb: the FROM DUMMY a bare SELECT needs, a limit injected when only an offset is given, string compiled to NVARCHAR, and quoted case-sensitive identifiers against Python's lowercase. The rest covers schema migrations with Alembic on HANA's transactional DDL, the recently added async support and vector types, and that HANA Cloud and HANA 2 are supported while HANA 1 is not.Talk,
CDS Associations & JoinspublishedA Devtoberfest 2026 session from SAP's performance and scalability team on what an ABAP CDS association becomes on SAP HANA, taken as an excerpt from their internal performance training. The CDS edge rests on the three ways an association is used: a path expression and an explicit join both put a left outer join into the generated view, while exposing the association leaves the view without one and adds the join only for a query that asks for its fields, which the session calls join on demand. The data modelling edge is the advice that follows and the demo under it — cardinality written as precisely as the data allows, because the optimiser trusts it, shown with a view whose missing cardinality let SELECT COUNT(*) prune the join and return 18 rows where selecting the columns returned 56, plus the left-hand, right-hand and left-outer-to-inner rewrites that correct cardinalities make possible.Talk,
Developing authorizations for business users in SAP Business AI Platform, ABAP environmentpublishedA Devtoberfest 2026 session that walks the places an authorization check has to be written when a RAP business object is implemented, which is the whole of the authorization edge: read restrictions as DCL access controls that become a filter at query time, a child entity inheriting its parent's conditions through an association, the projection layer inheriting rather than changing them, and the same check repeated on the draft side. The ABAP CDS edge holds on that draft half — until 2608 a draft query view was needed above the draft table so a DCL had something to attach to, while a draft table entity is already on CDS level and takes the DCL directly, as long as the associations used in the inherited conditions are redefined on it. Create, update and delete are then taken handler by handler, including the trap that instance authorization reads the buffer and so cannot see the new value a pre-check would reject, and the session closes on in local mode and privileged EML calls.Talk,
SAP BAIP, ABAP environment – How to build partner solutions and get them certifiedpublishedA Devtoberfest 2026 session on the two ways a partner ships an ABAP Cloud solution built on SAP BTP ABAP environment, which the session calls the ABAP environment of SAP Business AI Platform: software delivery, where an add-on product is published with the solution ID from SAP Store onboarding and the customer discovers and deploys it into their own system, and service delivery, where the partner operates the same add-on as a multi-tenant SaaS and a new version is deployed rather than published again. That is the ABAP environment edge; the static analysis edge rests on the quality steps shown in the landscape portal, where the Manage Continuous Testing app released with 2608 runs an ATC check variant against a configured system on a recurrence pattern, beside test product version builds and managed test tenants. The second half walks through the SAP Integration and Certification Center process and the three BTP certification options open to an add-on product.Talk,
Updates on Embedded Analytics in ABAP Cloud for DeveloperspublishedA Devtoberfest 2026 session (ABA-33) on the generator wizards for Embedded Analytics in ABAP Cloud, run by right-clicking a data definition in the ADT Project Explorer. It first names the artefacts a star schema needs, all of them ABAP CDS — cube view at its centre, dimension, text and hierarchy views reached by association, a hierarchy directory, and an InA service definition and binding — and then generates them: the star schema generator reads a view entity's metadata, sorts its fields into dimensions and measures, asks about the ones it cannot decide, offers the dimension views it found and writes an activated cube view; the hierarchy generator produces directory, node, base and definition views plus a maintenance business object with a generated app, which is used to group airlines into alliances before the hierarchy is switched on in the layout of the multi-dimensional analysis app. That is analytic modelling on the ABAP platform, which is what the edges rest on; the outlook names time-dependent hierarchies, translatable texts and dimensions generated from database tables.Talk,
ABAP Select Converterflavors, description, links revisedThe flavor rests on the page's own "It is primarily used to migrate existing code to ABAP Cloud."; nothing on either page places the tool in standard ABAP. The page's "Additional infos" link was read for the first time and is now links.docs: it states the beta and lists what the converter supports and does not, which replaces the earlier "nothing for a batch of statements", a limit read off what the form does not show. The my-ide-actions sentence now follows that repository's own words, "The basis is the SwH tool" and the security table's "SELECT Converter | Software-Heroes API | -> Full SELECT Statement", and calls it an IDE Action rather than a package, which is the type that entry carries.Web tool,
Authenticationecosystems revisedui5-middleware-oidc was staged in intake-20261019-bestofui5 under ui5-build-tooling because this capability was not open on the UI5 door. The UI5 reading comes from the README of SAP's backend-proxy-middleware.Capability,
CDS Field Mappingdescription revisedSAP's Cloudification Repository is in the graph, so the README's source is named by its entry rather than by a URL none of this entry's sources gave. The README's sentence is "Source will be the Cloudification Repository, where the mapping old table to new Core Data Services is listed.", so the prose reports it as what the README names and not as how the mapping file is produced today: the file in the repository comes from an extractor class you copy and run in your own system. The CAST, CASE and ABS gap is attributed to the tool's page, which is where that sentence stands, rather than to the README.Web tool,
Cloudification Repository Viewerflavors revisedThe documentation's Introduction places what the viewer shows in one flavor: "The Cloudification Repository is part of the new ABAP Cloud development model and lists released standard APIs that can be used to build the TIER 1 layer." Neither page states a standard ABAP use, so that flavor is left unstated.Web tool,
Editor supportecosystems revisedUI5 Language Assistant, SAP's VS Code extension for UI5 XML views and manifest.json, and the SAPUI5 Extension by iljapostnovs were staged in intake-20261019-bestofui5 with this concern as their best fit, and the capability was not open on the UI5 door.

Seed dataecosystems revisedvscode-ui5-odata-mock-generator and openui5-smart-mockserver were staged in intake-20261019-bestofui5 under ui5-testing; the first one's drafter noted that seed-data fit better but was not open on the UI5 door. The UI5 reading comes from the OpenUI5 mock server pages and SAP's ui5-middleware-fe-mockserver README.Capability,

SAP S/4HANA Cloud: Scheduling Background Jobs Using Application Job TemplatespublishedWalks through moving S/4HANA Cloud and ABAP Environment job scheduling off ECC's SUBMIT and JOB_OPEN/JOB_SUBMIT/JOB_CLOSE pattern onto the Application Job Framework: a job template built from an ABAP class that implements IF_APJ_DT_EXEC_OBJECT and IF_APJ_RT_EXEC_OBJECT, then scheduled through the Manage Application Job Templates Fiori app or programmatically with CL_APJ_RT_JOB_SCHEDULING_API's SCHEDULE_JOB method.

How to Create an Application Job (APJ) in SAP S/4HANA ABAP — With Single Values & Select OptionspublishedWalks through implementing an Application Job end to end on the ABAP door: a class implements IF_APJ_RT_EXEC_OBJECT for runtime execution and IF_APJ_DT_EXEC_OBJECT to define parameters, covering both single-value parameters and select options, then registers the class as a job catalog entry and template in ADT for scheduling through the Application Jobs Fiori app. Frames Application Jobs as the class-based, ADT-defined successor to the classic SM36/SM37 background job transactions.Blog,

How to Implement SAP Change DocumentpublishedBuilds SAP's Change Document framework on two custom tables, ZZCUSTOMER and ZZCUSTOMER_BANK: creating the Change Document Object in transaction SCDO, then wrapping each INSERT, MODIFY and DELETE on the Z-tables together with a call to the generated WRITE method inside one ABAP class, so both commit in the same Logical Unit of Work. Because the generated method cannot read old values back from the database itself, the class reads them before the update and holds them in memory; a Managed RAP application skips this step by specifying the Change Document Object directly in its Behaviour Definition instead. This is the ABAP side of change tracking: a change document object logs who changed a field, and when, into CDHDR and CDPOS.Blog,

Capturing Background Job Errors in SAP Using the Application Log (SLG0/SLG1)publishedWalks through ABAP's Application Log framework for recording errors from a background job that has no screen to show them on: defining an Object and Sub-object in SLG0, then building the log in code with BAL_LOG_CREATE, adding a free-text or message-class entry with BAL_LOG_MSG_ADD_FREE_TEXT or BAL_LOG_MSG_ADD, and persisting it with BAL_DB_SAVE so it survives after the job finishes. The worked example is a report inserting student records into a custom table, scheduled via SM36 and reviewed afterwards in SLG1, filtered by the Object and Sub-object that created it.Blog,
Mastering Internal Actions in SAP RAP: Automatic Header Calculation in ABAP CloudpublishedWalks through a sales-order BDEF where an item-level determination triggers a header-only internal action by EML in local mode, so a quantity or price change recalculates the order total and applies a 10% discount above $10,000 without a UI button or external OData call reaching the logic directly. Argues for an internal action over inline determination code on reusability and separation of concerns: a determination decides when logic runs, the action decides what runs, and marking it internal keeps Fiori Elements and external OData clients from invoking it.Blog,
Scheduling a Background Job for the BDC Session Method Using RSBDCSUBpublishedWalks through uploading data with GUI_UPLOAD, building a BDC session with BDC_OPEN_GROUP, BDC_INSERT and BDC_CLOSE_GROUP, then scheduling the standard program RSBDCSUB as a background job with JOB_OPEN, SUBMIT ...

Knowing the maintenance status of a releaseentry revisedDrafted with sap-support-radar and pam-mcp-server, the first umbrella artifacts (ADR-0063), which had no concern to attach to: mcp-servers is serving an application one built, agent-systems-access reaches into a running SAP system, and documentation is first-party docs made searchable.

Agentic memory: Knowledge graph engine and recall in SAP HANA CloudpublishedThe knowledge graph engine in SAP HANA Cloud as an agent's memory: what the engine, the graph side of graph, spatial and document data, does in an agentic workflow, how an agent keeps what it learns there, the state agent tooling holds between turns, and the SAP AI Core integration through which the database calls LLMs and tabular foundation models such as SAP-RPT-1. The abstract names the engine, the memory role and the AI Core link and does not say how the memory is written or read. DA263 on Wednesday 28 October is a two-hour hands-on on the same engine with a different cast.

The extensibility edge rests on the abstract naming extensibility as a principle and nothing more specific; no API, product or tool is named, so the talk is attached to the broadest concern it touches.

How to mass upload from a spreadsheet file into an SAP Fiori app in SAP BTP ABAP Environment Part 1publishedPart 1 of a three-part series on mass-uploading records from a spreadsheet into a RAP business object in the SAP BTP ABAP environment, using the XCO XLSX module to parse an uploaded Excel file without any open-source library. It reads a named worksheet by its column-and-row coordinates into an internal table through the row-stream operation, then creates or updates records with the EML MODIFY ENTITIES statement, and reserves the Fiori elements custom-action wiring and the download/template generation for Parts 2 and 3.Blog,

Unleashing ABAP Potential: An introduction to Extension Libraries (XCO)publishedIntroduces ABAP's Extension Libraries (XCO), a library framework that puts reusable functionality behind one interface. The post places it as part of the ABAP RESTful Application Programming Model but versatile enough for other ABAP contexts, and says it works in both on-premise ABAP and the ABAP environment on SAP Business Technology Platform. It walks through a worked Logging example: xco_log=>factory->create_new_log opens a log keyed by object, subobject and external ID, logger->add_message appends a typed message, and logger->add_last_symsg attaches a problem class and level of detail for later traceability.Blog,

BEHAVIOR_ILLEGAL_STATEMENT dump | Technical workaroundspublishedThe BEHAVIOR_ILLEGAL_STATEMENT dump fires in SAP RAP when an explicit COMMIT WORK or ROLLBACK WORK, or a direct database write, collides with RAP's own transactional model: a Logical Unit of Work split into an interaction phase, where changes sit in a transactional buffer, and a save sequence that validates and persists them. The post then names four ways to move the offending statement into a separate task instead — the Background Processing Framework, parallel processing, Application Jobs, or, on-premise only, a wrapper RFC function module called with DESTINATION 'NONE' — pointing to further reading for each rather than working through any of them here.Blog,
BO Interface APIs : An alternative to BAPIs and traditional FMspublishedWalks through updating an S/4HANA Purchase Order's line items through a released BO interface instead of a BAPI, using EML against the underlying CDS entity and a COMMIT ENTITIES statement because the call sits outside a behavior class. Argues the BO interface route avoids a RAP behavior class's restriction against calling COMMIT WORK directly, and covers finding a released interface's CRUD operations on api.sap.com and extending the same approach to a custom field or a custom RAP-based Fiori app's own BO.Blog,
Clean Core IndexpublishedDescribes a company-built KPI, the Clean Core Index, that scores existing custom ABAP code by object type — reports, function modules, SAPScript/Smartforms, ATC S/4 readiness-check findings, user exits and modifications — each weighted by a severity the author sets for redesign effort and upgrade risk, with counts read off CDS views built for the purpose. The index is the author's own definition rather than an official one and does not by itself certify public-cloud readiness, but tracking it weekly shows where custom code still blocks a move to ABAP Cloud and lets progress be read per module or per object type.Blog,

A simple example of a SAP RAP Application based on Legacy API without UUID keyspublishedWalks through building a managed RAP business object over the Flight Reference Scenario's Travel and Booking entities with unmanaged save and late numbering, so CRUD operations route through the legacy /DMO/FLIGHT_TRAVEL_CREATE, _UPDATE and _DELETE function modules instead of generated persistence, a worked case of ABAP's transactional model. Covers the ADJUST_NUMBERS and SAVE_MODIFIED saver methods that map preliminary draft keys to the legacy-assigned travel and booking IDs, and a GetDefaultsForBookings action that proposes the next booking ID during draft handling.Blog,
ABAP's Parallel Processing Frameworks: Practical Guide to Performance Tuning of Mass Data ProcessingpublishedSurveys ABAP's two parallel processing technologies, asynchronous RFC (aRFC) and the queued, exactly-once background RFC (bgRFC), and the six frameworks built on top of them, SPTA, SHDB, CL_ABAP_PARALLEL, the Background Processing Framework, the Parallel Processing Framework and the Mass Data Framework, each by its own entry point: a function module, a factory class or a Customizing transaction. A Qualitative Weight and Summ matrix then compares the frameworks across criteria such as package creation, load balancing and documentation quality, stated as the author's own subjective scoring for one project rather than a ranking.Blog,
Debugging in ABAP Development Tool (Part 1)publishedA walkthrough of the ABAP Debugger inside ABAP Development Tools: setting a toggle (hard) breakpoint versus a soft breakpoint that only fires once a session is already active, running up to four debugging sessions on the same program, reading the call stack, and debugging an update function module. It also covers watchpoints with their recent and current values, conditional and user-specific breakpoints, activating and deleting breakpoints, and adding variables such as SY-INDEX to the variables tab.Blog,
Enhancing Standard BAPIs: When and How to Do ItpublishedWalks through why a standard BAPI needs enhancing — a missing field, an extra validation, logic before or after the call, or a performance tweak — and five ways ABAP offers to do it: a BAdI found in SE18/SE19, an append structure for extra fields, a classic user exit wired through SMOD/CMOD, a wrapper function module copied from the original, or an implicit enhancement when no other extension point exists. Each technique gets its own steps, and two carry a short ABAP code example.Blog,

How to Check Fiori Apps Related Authorization Object MasspublishedA structured, table-driven method for mass-checking which authorization objects back a set of Fiori apps: map each Fiori App ID to its OData service, look up that service's hash in USOBHASH, then resolve the hash to its authorization objects (S_SERVICE, S_RFC, among others) in USOBTC. The author reports the method's limits in practice — apps built on a transaction code are already findable directly in USOBTC, and the same approach resolved only 5 of 300 Web Dynpro apps, which needed a manual catalog-and-hash workaround instead.Blog,

Beyond READ_TEXT: Decoding SAPscript Long Texts (STXL) with SQLScript in CDS/AMDPpublishedSTXL stores a SAPscript long text as a compressed ABAP cluster container — LZ77 plus canonical Huffman — so the only official reads are READ_TEXT, one call per text, and its mass variant READ_TEXT_TABLE, both of which ship every decompressed line to the application server and stay invisible to ABAP CDS. The author reverse-engineered that on-disk format and ported the decoder into SQLScript, wrapped in an AMDP procedure and exposed through CDS table functions, turning long texts into a joinable, filterable column read directly in the database. On ABAP 7.56 a table function needs the driver-and-filter pattern shown because a parameter cannot bind to a calling column; on ABAP 7.58/S/4HANA 2023 the same result becomes a parameter-less CDS scalar function with true filter push-down.Blog,
Clean Core清洁核心概况介绍publishedExplains Clean Core as SAP's architecture methodology for decoupling custom code from standard code, and walks through the A-D grading SAP uses for a single extension's cleanliness: D for direct modification of standard tables, programs, classes or functions, or disallowed patterns such as implicit enhancements; C for internally developed functions calling unreleased APIs; B for using only SAP's classic or released APIs (BAPI, ALV Grid, BAdI); A for side-by-side extensions reached only through released interfaces onto the SAP Build extension suite. It lays out a six-step roadmap for reaching Clean Core — inventorying existing extensions, setting a reduction target, surveying SAP's extension routes (SAP GUI SE80, Fiori custom fields and logic, BTP high/low-code, workflow/RPA), writing a decision tree, splitting new development from legacy migration, and reviewing periodically — while noting that in-app development is not inherently unclean and that real decisions should weigh ROI rather than follow the theory absolutely.Blog,
S/4HANA公有云版的内部ABAP拓展publishedArgues that S/4HANA Cloud public edition's in-app ABAP extensibility is still real ABAP development, just under stricter rules: developer extensions require ABAP Development Tools rather than SAP GUI transactions, data models are defined as CDS views instead of SE11 tables, business logic is a RAP behavior definition instead of a function module, and service exposure is an auto-generated OData service from a Service Definition instead of a hand-built RFC/BAPI. The piece walks a worked example — a Fiori app that triggers the Purchase Requisition API — through CDS, RAP, OData activation on SAP Gateway, and authorization via business catalogues, and frames the whitelist of released APIs and CDS views as upgrade-safety rather than a restriction.Blog,
Taking Control of Clean Core: When to Use Project Kernseife in addition to Standard SAP ToolspublishedWalks through how SAP's standard path classifies custom ABAP extensions into Clean Core Levels A through D, running ABAP Test Cockpit against the Cloudification Repository's release status for each SAP object an extension touches, then feeding results into the RISE with SAP Methodology Dashboard in SAP Cloud ALM. Contrasts that with Project Kernseife, an open-source custom ATC check that lets a team override SAP's classification with project-specific rules, define its own successor objects (including custom wrappers), and expose a Score and Potential Score per finding through a CDS view for prioritizing cleanup — at the cost of owning and maintaining that classification. States which situations favor each: Kernseife where the standard rules are too rigid for the project's reality, the standard dashboard where cross-system comparability and low maintenance effort matter more.Blog,

Finding a transaction codeentry revisedA browser tool for searching transaction codes had nowhere to attach, and the nearest nodes are all about something else: browsing table data is the rows a system holds rather than the way into a task, GUI automation drives screens rather than finding them, abap-classic-ui builds them, and documentation is what to read. Named on the ABAP door because a transaction code is an entry point of a classic SAP system, and marked not-applicable in ABAP Cloud, where there is no SAP GUI and so no command field to enter one into. The coverage rests on SAP's own documentation for the in-session routes; nobody has surveyed what else answers this from outside a system, which is why the relationship is unassessed.Capability,

Generating Adobe Form Using RAP framework OData ServicespublishedModels a RAP root view entity and consumption view over a custom sales-order table, built with ABAP CDS, and exposes it through a service definition and an OData V2 UI service binding. A separate SEGW project implements GET_STREAM to call an Adobe Form driver class and stream the rendered PDF back as the response, with a computed link field added to the CDS view so the UI can open it.
