Repository Explorer of the SAP Cloud Application Studio

You will learn more about the Repository Explorer which is one of the most important tools for your development with the SAP Cloud Application Studio. It helps you to understand the data model and gives you also code snippets for your ABSL coding.

The repository explorer lets you explore all business objects and data types of the entire system. Besides that you also have the possibility to try querys in order to investigate the actual data stored in the various business objects. It is essential for every developer to get an understanding of the data model of the solution and how it connects to the UI the users sees in the front end.

I hope my new video helps you to understand all that better and to get a head start!

      Hello Jens,

       

      should I be able to find my custom KUT or SDK fields in the repository explorer?

       

      I didn't.

       

      Many greetings from Düsseldorf

       

      Daniel

      Dear Daniel,

      no, you will not find your KUT fields in the repository explorer. So all correct.

      Cheers
      Jens

      Hello Jens,

      Is it possible that few of the standards fields are not in repository explorer ?

      For Example : Planned start date and End Date in the Item of Service Request.

      I checked in the bindings as well

      ./PlannedScheduleStartDate->http://sap.com/xi/AP/CRM/Global->Root-.Item-.FirstPlannedItemScheduleLine-~DateTimePeriod-~StartDateTime-~content

      Thank you

      Regards

      Prat
