How to force navigation from a FPM page within the same window?

[former_member349896]

I can make the FPM page navigate to a webdynpro application but nowhere else.  Once there I tried redirecting to an external webpage using the usual exit plug but it doesn't work coming from a FPM application (it hangs)- when the webdynpro application is called directly the exit plug works.  Does anyone know what would be preventing the navigation from working?

Hi Jeremy,

Here comes a solution from me...and it works. You could use if_fpm_navigate_to api and suspend & resume mechanism to achieve that. Code below:

   DATA ls_nav_key     TYPE fpm_s_navigation_key.

   DATA lr_fpm_nav_to  TYPE REF TO if_fpm_navigate_to.

   ls_nav_key-key1 = 'FPM_NAV_1'. "role

   ls_nav_key-key2 = 'WD_NAVIGATION'. "instance

*  I think role and instance are two concepts from launchpad and what we should do here is

*  make them unique on that list. You could find the list using transaction LPD_CUST

   lr_fpm        = cl_fpm_factory=>get_instance( ).

   lr_fpm_nav_to = lr_fpm->get_navigate_to(  iv_role     = 'FPM_NAV_1'

                                             iv_instance = 'WD_NAVIGATION' ).

*  you need to set it as true for open a new app in the same window.

  ls_url_to-use_suspend_resume = abap_true.

   CALL METHOD lr_fpm_nav_to->launch_url

     EXPORTING

       is_url_fields            = ls_url_to

I had previously tried that.  It does not work for me unless the destination is another FPM or WD application.  It works well for that scenario, though.

Hi Jeremy,

I am facing the same problem...Do you have any solution on that?
