Hello ,

I am on EP7.0 ERP05 NW04s and trying to add fields on the Banks Overview screen ...I want to add Bank Account Type like Checking or Savings ..but when I modify the code in the wdDoModifyView() method of the Bizcard field it displays me 01 and 02 as it is stored in the backend like that.....

Please help.

Hi Antonio,

For this you have to change the source code.Please follow the instructions for the same:

1) Create project eg ess_ptpdata and expand it

2) Open VcPerPersonalPTOverview component of the application.

3) Go to implementation of BizcardsView ( View in the same component)

4) In wdDoModifyView(), we pass technical names of field that we want to display on the bizcard at the runtime

5) Text for these fields is maintained in Message Pool of same component.

6) In this case you have to add technical field name in wdDoModifyView() method of BizcardsView implementation.

7) You have to add text in message pool for this field

😎 Save, Build and Deploy the project and test the application again.

Do write back if you have issues

Hello!

If you still need some help then have a look at my tutorial, which you can download by using this link:

https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/sdn/softwaredownload?download=/irj/servlet/prt/portal/prtroot/com.sap.km...

Please note that it requires SDN logon to download the file.

The tutorial explains how to develop your own BizCard and also explains how to show different fields in the Overview by subtype.

Hi,

Can you please give me a hint about how to get the text in Bizcard in case the field in the context is a key field, say Gender, Country, Nationality. Will appreciate if you can send me some sample code.

Hi Antonio,

Till date it is not possible to add more fields in bizcard on overview screen. Which ERP version you are using ..ERP 2004 or ERP 2005?

This new feature will be provided shortly as a ERP 2005 value pack where you can customize your bizcard fields.

As of now fields displayed on bizcard are hardcoded in the country specific applications. If you want to add or change fields on bizcard you have to create a project in netweaver studio and have to change the code.

In case you are willing to do the changes, I will guide you further on this.

Thanks and Regards,

Ruchi Gupta.
