ABAP Cloud is the development model for building clean core compliant apps, services, and extensions on SAP S/4HANA Cloud, SAP S/4HANA, and SAP BTP ABAP Environment. ABAP Cloud covers different development scenarios such as transactional, analytical, intgeration, and enterprise search scenarios. The ABAP RESTful Application Programming Model (RAP) ist at the heart of ABAP Cloud for building transactional SAP Fiori apps, OData-based Web API, local APIs, and business events.
This jump-start session introduces attendees to the Joule's ABAP developer capabilities that support rapid development of both transactional and read-only SAP Fiori elements-based apps with ABAP Cloud. Attendees will also learn how to display data in hierarchical treeview in SAP Fiori apps and how to use ABAP Cloud to define and raise business events that can be consumed locally or remotely via SAP Event Mesh for loosely coupled integration scenarios.
The prerequisites for following the exercises in this repository are the installation of the latest version of the ABAP Development Tools for Eclipse (ADT) on your laptop or PC and the access to a suitable ABAP system (i.e. SAP BTP ABAP Environment) connected to the SAP AI Core. In addition, the appropriate flavor of the ABAP Flight Reference Scenario (package
/DMO/FLIGHT) must be imported into the system.
Before completing the exercises in this repository, you need to:
- Create an ABAP Cloud Project
- Adapt the Web Browser settings in your ADT installation:
i) Choose Window > Preferences in the menu bar.
ii) Navigate to General > Web Browser.
iii) Activate the radio button Use external web browser.
iv) Select one of the listed external web browsers that are available, e.g. Default system web browser.
❗Make sure that Internet Explorer is not selected.

In this exercise block, you will learn how to build a transactional, draft-enabled SAP Fiori app from scratch using RAP powered by Joule's ABAP developer capabilities to manage agency data. You will then learn how to define and raise business events for loosely coupled integration scenarios. Finally, you will learn how to implement an event handler for the local consumption of the RAP business events directly on the application server.

In this exercise block, you will learn how to build a read-only SAP Fiori app using ABAP Cloud assisted by the Joule's ABAP developer capabilities to display employee data. You will then learn how to define and display hierarchical data in a read-only treeview in an SAP Fiori app.
ℹ️ Note: This is a standalone exercise block that can be completed independently of the previous exercise block (A). In case you are starting with this exercise block, then please start with Getting Started.
