Monitor for Delivery Notes

xSuite Cube Release Notes

Monitor for Delivery Notes – SAP Fiori

As of this release, the xSuite Delivery Notes Monitor from the SAP GUI (transaction /‍W‍M‍D‍/‍F‍P‍_‍D‍N‍M) is also available in the Fiori Launchpad as a separate xSuite App.

The back end delivers a maximum of 500 documents as search results to the front end. If more than 500 documents have been found, a notification will appear in the table header. The filter and sorting functions only apply to these 500 documents. It is therefore advisable to restrict searches so that a maximum of 500 documents are found.

Back-end user exits

If user exits are available on the back end for the xSuite Delivery Notes Monitor, these user exits must be checked as to whether they work in conjunction with the xSuite App for SAP Fiori.

Graphic SAP GUI elements such as dialogs are not permitted for user exits; user exits may not generate them during user exit execution via the application. Appropriate switches are required.

Configuration for the xSuite Delivery Notes Monitor App is performed in the settings.json file of the xSuite Base Library in the object app_dnm:

The available configuration parameters correspond to those of the other xSuite Monitor Apps, such as the xSuite Invoice Monitor.

Cache

As do other apps, the ArchiveLink Monitor App uses a cache to improve performance. The functionality is identical to that of the cache in the xSuite Invoice Monitor App.

Data validation

Along with the front-end data validation described above, the header and line-item data is sent to the back end for validation as soon as it has been entered. Invalid data is discarded directly.

Attachments

As do other apps, the xSuite Delivery Notes App uses the xSuite PNG Viewer to display attachments.

On mobile end devices such as tablets and smartphones, attachments are always displayed in a separate window. On desktop PCs and laptops, display in a separate window is optional and can be activated at need.

When external display is used, attachments are opened in a separate browser window.
