UI5 and OData using RFC

[Former Member]

Hello,

Scenario:

I am a newbie to SAPUI5 and I am creating a simple report using SAPUI5 in which I am using ODATA which consumes an RFC which has some input parameters which I'll be giving from the front-end itself and getting the output based on the RFC itself. So for that to achieve, I have created 2 views and 2 controllers.

VIEW1:  I have created a form which is taking 6 input parameters. One is drop-down list, one is text box and remaining are date, time (from,two).  and a search button.

CONTROLLER 1: After hitting search button, I am retrieving my inputs using  sap.ui.getCore().getElementById('myid').getValue(); within the search function and then forwarding my app to view 2 using  app.to("idview2");

CONTROLLER 2: Here, I have created a model using ODATA web service

VIEW2: In my view 2, I just have a table (11 columns) which will be having different outputs based on the inputs and I want to show the data using.

             var oTable = sap.ui.table.Table("tableid",{

             visibleRowCount: 100,

            editable: false

            });

           oTable.addColumn(new sap.ui.table.Column({

            label: new sap.ui.commons.Label({text:"User Name"}),

            visible: true,

           template: new sap.ui.commons.TextView({text:"{}"})

            }));

and binding at the end like oTable.bindRows("CHNG>/changeSet");

Questions: 

• How the ODATA Model should look like, right now it is having 2 entities (i/p,o/p) by importing the RFC
• How to pass the parameters which i am getting in the controller 1 to my model and where to pass those. Or do I have to create a new model after passing those input parameters.
• Syntax to get the output? is it the same which I have written in view 2.

I am really stuck and could't find anything.

Hi Saumil,

Here is a pointer for Function Import to create oData -

To pass parameters from view 1 to view 2 you can use routing more info here - SAPUI5 SDK - Demo Kit

Binding on the table looks good.

Hope this helps.

Kedar,

            Thank you so much for the reply. Could you please help me with the syntax of passing inputs             to the service?

Hi Saumil,

You can use filters to pass data in your odata service calls. Here is more info - SAPUI5 SDK - Demo Kit

Example - SAPUI5 SDK - Demo Kit

Hope this helps.
