Building an Attachment Upload and Download Solution Using UploadSetwithTable ControlBuilding an Attachment Upload and Download Solution Using UploadSetwithTable ControlThe successor control to UploadSet posts the file in one request by default, and against CAP that is wrong: the record has to be created first and the content put to it afterwards. The author states the two-step shape plainly and notes it may not apply to an ABAP backend, which is the kind of boundary that usually goes unsaid. Written during a proof of concept for a reusable attachment component, and it carries the problem they hit with the control.published 2025-03-13

Evaluating SAP’s new MCP servers: UI5, CAP, and Fiori tools in practiceEvaluating SAP’s new MCP servers: UI5, CAP, and Fiori tools in practiceSomeone trying SAP's three new MCP servers rather than repeating the announcement. It sets the official positioning first — MCP as the bridge from coding assistants to SAP tooling across Cursor, Windsurf, Copilot, Cline and Claude Code, with best-practice scaffolds and BTP-aligned guardrails — and then reports what using them is actually like. The rare kind of post that tests a vendor claim.published 2025-09-04
SAP Fiori Tools Update – First Release of the SAP Fiori MCP Server for Agentic AISAP Fiori Tools Update – First Release of the SAP Fiori MCP Server for Agentic AIThe release announcement for the Fiori MCP server, placed as the step after the Project Accelerator: an assistant can create and edit Fiori applications directly rather than describing what a developer should do. The vendor's own framing, so read it beside the independent evaluation of the same servers rather than instead of it.published 2025-09-03

Simple Table Maintenance in SAP Fiori Using UI5 Smart ControlsSimple Table Maintenance in SAP Fiori Using UI5 Smart ControlsStarts from SM30 and the table maintenance dialog it generated with almost no code, then asks what the equivalent is now. That framing is the value: a maintenance screen for a custom table was a solved problem in SAP GUI and is not an obviously solved one on Fiori, and the post works through what smart controls give you towards it.published 2025-02-11
The Complete Guide to Calling Actions in UI5 with Custom CodeThe Complete Guide to Calling Actions in UI5 with Custom CodeWritten because the documentation is thin and the samples sparse, and openly as a note to the author's future self — hand-coding an action call has become a rare task for anyone mostly working in Fiori elements, which is exactly why it is hard to look up when it comes round. Comes with a CAP sample project, so the service half is there too.published 2025-07-21

Building an Enterprise Application Using Fiori Elements and CAP - Part 1Building an Enterprise Application Using Fiori Elements and CAP - Part 1Part one of three, and it is all backend: the CAP service the UI will sit on. The author states the constraint the series works under — simple enough for someone new to the stack, without departing from the standard project layout.Farooq, published 2025-12-10
Building an Enterprise Application Using Fiori Elements and CAP – Part 2Building an Enterprise Application Using Fiori Elements and CAP – Part 2The generator run and the List Report it produces, on top of the service from part one. This is where the annotations start doing the work rather than the CDS entities.Farooq, published 2025-12-10
Building an Enterprise Application Using Fiori Elements and CAP – Part 3Building an Enterprise Application Using Fiori Elements and CAP – Part 3The Object Page, which the author points out is entirely annotation-driven — there is no page to design, only facets to declare. The last of the three.Farooq, published 2025-12-10

How to Control the Visibility of CRUD and Custom Actions in Fiori Elements Based on AuthorizationHow to Control the Visibility of CRUD and Custom Actions in Fiori Elements Based on AuthorizationHiding Create, Edit and custom action buttons according to what the user may actually do — the join between the authorisation model and the annotations, which is where the two usually fail to agree and the UI offers something the service will refuse.published 2025-05-14
SAP BTP Developer's Guide: Extending Fiori Elements with the Flexible Programming ModelSAP BTP Developer's Guide: Extending Fiori Elements with the Flexible Programming ModelExtension points, building blocks and controller extensions in the Flexible Programming Model, aimed at developers who know the annotations but stop where the floorplan does. The premise is that the capability has been available for a while and is still being discovered, which is a fair description of where most Fiori Elements work runs out of documented ground.published 2025-10-15

Visualizing Your SAP Bill of Materials Using CAP, Fiori elements, and the UI5 Network GraphVisualizing Your SAP Bill of Materials Using CAP, Fiori elements, and the UI5 Network GraphA parent-child structure rendered as a network graph inside a Fiori Elements application, with the CAP service modelling the bill of materials behind it. Useful as one of the few worked examples of putting a non-standard visualisation into an annotation-driven floorplan rather than building a freestyle app around it.published 2025-02-24

Task and approval UIsSAP only
Establish a central inbox with SAP Task CenterEstablish a central inbox with SAP Task CenterSAP's reference architecture for SAP Task Center as one inbox for the tasks of several SAP applications, opened in the Task Center web app or as To-Dos in SAP Start and SAP Mobile Start, which is the inbox half of task and approval UIs. It rests on Cloud Identity Services: every task provider must work with Identity Authentication, its users must carry the Global User ID and so must the recipients of each task, and sign-on between the provider and Identity Authentication is what lets a user navigate from Task Center into the provider. Task Center reaches providers through destinations in a customer subaccount, with Cloud Connector for on-premise SAP S/4HANA.published 2025-02-11
