Step 1: Create the RAP Project

1. In ABAP Development Tools (ADT):

   • Go to File → New → ABAP Project.

   • Connect to your system.

   • Create a new ABAP Package (e.g., Z_RAP_BUTTONS).

2. Create the RAP artifacts:

   • Business Object (BO):

     • Right-click the package → New → Other ABAP Repository Object → Business Object → RAP Business Object.

     • Example: ZBO_SALESORDER.

Step 2: Define the Behavior (Behavior Definition)

1. In your Behavior Definition (.behavior):

define behavior for ZI_SALESORDER
persistent table ZI_SALESORDER
lock master
{
create;
update;
delete;

// Add custom action button
action confirm order result [0..1];
}

Step 3: Implement the Behavior Logic

1. In Behavior Implementation (.behavior.abap):

implementation in class zbp_i_salesorder unique;

method confirm_order.
” Your business logic goes here
loop at it_entity into data(ls_entity).
ls_entity-status = ‘CONFIRMED’.
modify table et_entity from ls_entity.
endloop.
endmethod.

endimplementation.

Step 4: Expose Action in Service Definition

1. Open Service Definition (.service):

define service ZC_SALESORDER_SRV {
expose ZI_SALESORDER;
// Optionally expose action explicitly
action confirm order;
}

Step 5: Register & Test Service

1. Go to /IWFND/MAINT_SERVICE → register your RAP service.

2. Test via SAP Gateway Client (/IWFND/GW_CLIENT) to see the metadata:

   • You should see your confirm order action exposed.

Step 6: Fiori/UI Integration

• If you use Fiori Elements (List Report / Object Page):

  1. The action confirm order will automatically appear as a button in the Object Page or List Report.

  2. No extra UI5 code is required if you use standard Fiori Elements.

  3. If you want custom UI5, you can bind a button like this:

<Button
text=”Confirm Order”
press=”.onConfirmOrder”
/>

And in your controller:

onConfirmOrder: function(oEvent) {
var oModel = this.getView().getModel();
var sPath = oEvent.getSource().getBindingContext().getPath();
oModel.callFunction(“/ConfirmOrder”, {
method: “POST”,
urlParameters: {
SalesOrderID: oModel.getProperty(sPath + “/SalesOrderID”)
},
success: function() {
MessageToast.show(“Order Confirmed!”);
},
error: function() {
MessageToast.show(“Error!”);
}
});
}
