Enhancing the Use Case

In this learning journey, we demonstrate how to extend an SAP S/4HANA cloud system by using key-user extensibility and by creating an web application with SAP Build Apps. Here are some ways you can adopt and enhance this scenario.

In this learning journey, we show how to extend an SAP S/4HANA Cloud system using standard APIs and building a custom business object. You can take the same approach with an SAP S/4HANA on-premise or private cloud system. The main difference is the setup of the system landscape. The connection between the SAP BTP and the SAP S/4HANA system requires an SAP Cloud Connector.

In your use case scenario, we create a defect whenever we face an issue during the goods receipt check. The process now requires some manual steps to handle the defect. To automate the process, use the SAP Build Process Automation service.

The key-user extensibility we use in this learning journey has some limitations. You cannot define more complex business functions. To overcome those limitations, use developer extensibility.

Developer extensibility enables you to create development projects in an SAP S/4HANA Cloud system. It gives you the opportunity to develop cloud-ready and upgrade-stable custom ABAP code on SAP S/4HANA Cloud. It combines the benefits of custom ABAP code with the required restrictions for cloud readiness and the SAP S/4HANA programming model to build SAP Fiori apps.
