Video How-To: Add extension fields to the standard screens and configure a dynamic UI

In this short tutorial I will show and explain how you can add extension fields to standard business objects, the screens and how to configure a dynamic UI.

This tutorial shows how to add 2 fields to the employee and how to display one of them only when a certain condintion is fulfilled. I will use my standard example “Bonus Plan” from my previous videos.

In part 2 and 3 I will show how to use those extended fields in ABSL coding. This will show you how to add your custom logic using those fields in the standard business object “Employee” as well as in your custom application “Bonus Plan”.
