Hello Colin,

 

Thanks for the information.

From what I understand, the new framework is the ABAP Restful programming model. This course only explain ABAP Fiori Programming model (with BOPF), is it really useful to learn this model now ?

[Jelena]

I'm wondering the same. SAP came up with a new course for this just now? It says it's for S/4HANA 1809, it was released in 2018. SAP training just caught up? Oh my...

Hello Louis-Arnaud

Thank you for your question.

The CDS-BOPF-based approach with the ABAP Programming Model, for SAP Fiori is the best practice when building new applications from scratch (greenfield implementations) in SAP S/4HANA up to edition 1909.

This means that the S4D435 course offering will address the need of customers and partners on SAP S/4HANA releases <= 1909.

RAP is the recommended way to go for greenfield and brownfield implementations starting with SAP S/4HANA 2020.

The recommendation to use RAP for the development of new applications is stated in the ABAP Platform 2020 FSD* document. (*FDS: Feature Scope Description)
