[SAPUI5] Adding Lanes to a Process Flow

 , , , , ,

Manually adding Lanes to a Process Flow Control:

https://sapui5.hana.ondemand.com/#/api/sap.suite.ui.commons.ProcessFlow
https://sapui5.hana.ondemand.com/#/api/sap.suite.ui.commons.ProcessFlowLaneHeader
https://sapui5.hana.ondemand.com/#/entity/sap.suite.ui.commons.ProcessFlow/sample/sap.suite.ui.commons.sample.ProcessFlowUpdateLanes/code

In my case, there was no way to bind the model to the view, so I did the mapping for each ProcessFlowLaneHeader in the callback function after reading the oData entity.

view.xml

<flow:ProcessFlow id="process-flow"/>

controller.js

var oProcessFlow = this.getView().byId("process-flow")

var oRequestFilter = new sap.ui.model.Filter({
    path: "myId",
    operator: sap.ui.model.FilterOperator.EQ,
    value1: myId
})

this.getView().getModel().read("/WorkflowSet", {
    filters: [oFormularIdFilter],
    success: (oData, response) => {
        for (var i = 0; i < oData.results.length; i++) {
            var oLaneHeader = new ProcessFlowLaneHeader({
                laneId: oData.results[i].LaneId,
                iconSrc: oData.results[i].IconSrc,
                text: oData.results[i].Text,
                position: oData.results[i].Position,
                state: [{state: oData.results[i].State, value: "100"}]
            });
            oProcessFlow.addLane(oLaneHeader)
        }
    },
    error: oError => {
        sap.m.MessageToast.show("An error occured while reading entity /WorkflowSet.")
    }
});

In a Process Trigger, you can get a good overview of an employee who moved from REC, via ONB to EC.

This information can also be fetched via API.

[Fiori Elements] Custom Column in a Table is not visible

 , , , , , , ,

I had a generated Fiori Elements App (done by using @sap/generator-fiori), containing a List, where I needed to add a custom column containing a Button. I found this well explained in the official documentation:

https://sapui5.hana.ondemand.com/#/topic/d525522c1bf54672ae4e02d66b38e60c

I followed the instructions exactly, but it didn’t work. When comparing my manifest.json again with the example, I noticed one minor difference. In my generated App, there was an extra items/ in front of the @com.sap.vocabularies.UI.v1.LineItem.

My generated App
The manifest.json sample

After removing items/ the custom column was suddenly visible. When I noticed the difference, I thought that would never be the reason. Luckily, I tested it after all. That really is a big problem with Fiori Elements. These are problems that can no longer be solved by debugging or similar.

Here some more helpful links, when challenging with a custom column:
