Configuring the UWL Manage Substitution Rules

Thu Oct 12 14:58:58 EDT 2006

Hi,

we had a modification requirement for the manage substitutions app (it's Web
Dynpro-based) as well, but it turned out SAP doesn't ship the source code
for it like for the ESS applications. This made the changes not so feasible
at least for us (I understood you'd have to decompile the jar-files etc.).

But have you all heard the great news? The substitution BAdI is finally out!

It's not translated yet to English, but if you know any German check out OSS
note 977069. Jerry, I think you could influence the substitutions management
app somehow also through this option instead of direct modifications.

Regards,
Mikko
