Exploring the Cloud Application Studio in SAP Sales and Service Cloud

Okay. Welcome to the second part, where we plan to create your first solution into first business object. So to recap very quickly, what you plan to do is to create a data model. Now. And this is where we start by creating a business object because a business object relates to our data model. So let's go now to the ACP Codification Studio. Okay. Then let's log on to the ACP Cloud Application Studio. I installed it and have it here on my desktop with a double click. I can just launch it. That's my development environment. And here first I need to select my system before you can select your system. Like me here you need to configure it here. It's quite simple. Just put a name here and link to your system. Save and click okay. Then you can enter here your user. If you need a user that has a partner development center and you can log on to your repository. After that, we are connected to our solutions here and we can see all the solutions on the system. This one I have quite some test solutions here available. This we can close. This is your development environment. And here I will just create a new solution. Here I will create a customer specific solution. And I will just put a description here. In my case I call it seminar management. And I can also give a detailed description. In my case I just copy it here. I put customer relationship meant as deployment unit and I will leave the company information like it is at the mode. And then I click okay. And then the system is creating a new solution. Here the solution is directly opened up here on the right hand side. So you season as a solution explorer all the items within the solution. These are not too many right now because our solution is completely new and empty. After your solution is created, I usually structure my solution with folders. So I will add a new folder here to the custom objects because they will replace all our custom objects because later solutions might grow and we have many much more objects. In my case, I create another folder where I call it seminar management. And here in this folder there replace all my objects that relate to the seminar management that we are creating. By clicking an add new item, you get to the screen where you can find all the items we can create. I'm just really everything you can do with the Cloud Application Studio. And hopefully at the end of this video series, we have talked about all of it. So I will create a new business object here. This I will call now Seminar Management. Okay then I have a new business object defined where all my seminars will be stored in the end. Here we have some content code to give us some advice. We don't need that. And now we can start coding. I mean, what we see here now is not a programing language. I mean here we see really a data definition language. So we will define a business object with all its elements. I will hit Ctrl space and then I will get all the keywords I can have here. In our case we want to define a new element. So new field for the database. This element needs a name. So I will give it a name. We call it name because when we take a look back into the PowerPoint here, you can see that we hired a name description and certain attributes here. These attributes we want to define now in our business object so that we can store this information in our seminars. Business object okay. After typing name which is the name of it I can make a colon. Now get again a help here. Now I can get the, different data types. You see, we have many data types here because we have very specific data types. It's called as a global data types by SAP. And we will just give here for example, a long, text as a data type here. And this we need to do for all of them. So we need to define another element here. This is a description. And here we will also put a long text which is long enough. Here okay. So now we have two fields. We actually need much more. But before I continue what I would like to do, I would also provide the label because then we can translate because that's a technicality the name. And here we can also give labels. But you can then say name. And you could also have for example spaces. We will see this later. And it looks very nice. The UI and this label can also be translated in different languages very simply. So that's why it's best practice to really use always labels here. Okay I will copy this label. Now here call the description and now will do the rest. But this we will fast forward a little bit in the video so that you don't need to watch me typing here. Okay, here we go. Now we have defined nicely our business object has all the fields that we need in order to store seminars here. I will now need to activate that. This will really create a state of this table in the system. I don't need to take care. I never work with the databases. I just click activate and this code will generate a database and I can work with it then. And you also see here I did a mistake here. So again that's alive. I will just add a semicolon then. I should not have any errors here. And then I can also activate. So then let's activate this errors. Just still from the activation. Let's activate now and we will see it should work okay. Now we see all items activated because this red bubble is gone here. And we have activated now our seminar management below. Here you have these fields. Now we have a database that's already the basis that we need. That's our first step. So you have created a new business object now and you have created a new solution. Now here we have defined a business object with attributes. And an attribute is defined by a label with a name. An element that's just the keyword. The name of the field. And then the data type. We see here special data types like amounts where for example, an amount is a value of a currency, and a decimal value where is the date has already a certain date format here, and the business partner internal ID that's a certain ID where I know every business partner has it, and the teacher who is going to be one of our employees is a business partner. That's how we do the very basic definition of a business object. There's much more to it. But in the first videos, we just want to go quickly through the basics and visit. We are done here. It's the next step is now to create some logic, but that we see in the next video.
