Topic Highlights
Chunk View
Chunk View (Continued)
Chunk View will be available in Desktop, Tablet & Smartphone. The first 5-7 number of column fields shall be shown on chunk view.
The default view for smartphone and Tablet shall be Chunk view for better touch experience.
If end user changes the table visualization (Example from chunk view to map view), app will remember this for next time login on same device
for that specific table. Such a personalization is User specific, table specific and device specific.
For chunk view , since we don’t have a concept of leading object in 1608, we will display the first column of table as Title and Navigation shall be
based on what is configured as First Column. If we configure for e.g. Date or Status field as first column, then no navigation will be triggered.
Note: In all result set please ensure that the first column is the main field that supports navigation. For example in Account result set, have
Account Name as first field, so that we supports navigation to Account Detail view from result set.
Chunk view in cozy mode will not show any links. For e.g., if you are account owl, you will not see a link for navigation to owner. Cozy mode will
enable only one navigation which will work based on point 5. Compact mode will show all links in addition to one click navigation based on
leading object described on point 5.
Chunk views configured by applications will no longer be visible on RUI, as they will be replaced by a consistent feature.

Code List Restriction – Default Value Beta Version
Key User will be able to add PSM enabled fields in the Object Header.
Currently fields will be Read-only.
Mandatory Fields cannot be Hidden
Business Value: This feature shall provide the relevant error messages to the developer when a Save is rejected. The information shall
provide the solution details that is responsible for the save rejection.
Design Time:
If no selection parameters are provided for the query execution, the ABSL
compiler shall raise a warning message to caution the developer on a longer
runtime.
This shall apply for queries on Custom BOs and SAP BOs
Run Time:
A warning message is displayed in UI if the hits
of a QueryByElements exceeds specific value.
Solution property Enhancement
In 1605 Studio release, two new fields (Detailed Description & Keywords) were
introduced in the solution properties.
The Detailed Description field that allows developers to add more information/description
about the add-on solution.
The Keywords field that allows the developers to maintain relevant keywords for the add-
on solution.
In 1605, these properties were available only for new solutions that were created.
With 1611 release, these properties shall be maintained for existing solutions.
For existing solutions which were created prior to 1605, these fields shall be defaulted with
the value of the ‘Description’ field in the following cases.
1. When user opens the solution properties, by right clicking on solution name
(original/patch)
2. When patch is created, it will default the fields in both original and patch solution.
3. When the patch solution is uploaded to production tenant, Original solution will be
defaulted with long text and keyword of patch solution.
The user shall be allowed to edit the values of the properties anytime through the lifecycle of
the solution and in all types of tenants (DEV,TEST,PROD).

X in ticket line 4711/10). Same applies for the contract reference in the following
ECC invoicing process (Example: use ECC contract 40001548/101 for Filter X)
In Accounting the costs of such products are often handled differently: Product Costs
should in ECC [needs customizing] be assigned/ related to the main item
(Example: Filter Costs should be posted to 40001548/100 - 1 YEAR GOLD SUPPORT)
