Normally
in BW/4HANA
based system, most of BW administration activities are performed in web environment.
The BW4 has a REST API Framework that does that. The web administration environment
is called SAP BW∕4HANA Cockpit (aka “BW Fiori Launchpad”) and it can be start
from the SAP GUI via t-code BW4WEB.
SAP
supports BW
admistrators to move from SAP GUI based administration to web administration.
One of the places where this initiative can be notices is t-code RSPC1. In BW/4 based systems there
is a new icon the t-code toolbar. The icon is associated with tooltip called “Show chain in web-UI (Shit+Ctrl+O)”.
Same
function is available via menu: View -> Show Chain in Web-UI (Shift+Ctrl+0).
What
it does is that it opens a new SAP GUI session with the SAP BW∕4HANA Cockpit’s
page of particular PC – so called Process Chain Editor.
Technically
the function is implemented by a call of FM RSPC_CHAIN_MAINTAIN_WEB in ABAP include
LRSPC_FRONTENDI01. The FM first constructs an URL of REST API Framework by
calling a Uniform Resource
Identifier registry () and then rendering a web browser instance by creating an
GUI container. There are two buttons available on this screen (called Display
WebSite). One button is to open the same URL in separate session of the web
browser.
Other
button is to display URL of the PC administration web page in pop-up window. Technically
the URL is the same that BW∕4HANA Cockpit uses.
