In Part 1 of this blog sequence you learned How to configure SAP's standard Job Request form - Part 1. Now in this second part of the blog you shall learn how to influence whether selected fields shall be visible, mandatory or pre-filled with certain entries. Later on the third part of this blog will explain how you can influence basically any arbitrary field within the form regarding visibility or re-naming.
In order to configure the properties of certain fields within the Job Request form you have to access transaction SPRO in your SAP Solution Manager. Follow the path
SAP Solution Manager > Scenario-Specific Settings > Job Scheduling Management > Integration with Service Desk > Adapt Job Request Form > Create WebDynpro Component Configuration
When you execute this SPRO activity you access transaction SE80 where you have to select Web Dynpro Comp. / Intf. and select WD_AGS_EJR_JOB_REQUEST and display this entry. Then open the tree branch Component Configurations and double-click on CC_AGS_EJR_JOB_REQUEST. Then push the button Start Configuration. A new browser window will open.
Within the new window the field Component Name should be filled with WD_AGS_EJR_JOB_REQUEST and the field Configuration ID with CC_AGS_EJR_JOB_REQUEST. Then push the button Change.
The next screen allows now the configuration of certain fields in tab strip Component-Defined. The following (perhaps rather cryptic) entries each describe certain general sections within the Job Request form (some of them may only be seen in the Detail View and not in the Basic View of the Job Request Form):
If you select one of the above areas you get to see several related field entries that can be configured.
Now the logic is basically as follows:
Before our configuration the (default) Job Request form looked as follows for the Business and Service Desk context:
After our configuration the same Job Request form appears as follows for the Business and Service Desk context:
Fields like Region, Country Code or Short text are pre-filled. Fields like Region and Country Code became mandatory fields. Fields like Business Area, Sold to Party or Processor are hidden. Keep in mind that fields that you are hiding (like Sold to Party) may require a given value that you also have to pre-fill within the configuration step. Otherwise all Job Requests cannot be saved without errors.
In the next part of this blog you will learn how to influence whether selected fields shall be visible, mandatory or pre-filled with certain entries
