BRFplus in SAP NetWeaver 7.03 New and Enhanced Capabilities of BRFplus in NW 7.03
From a BRFplus perspective, SAP NetWeaver 7.03 primarily focuses on design time capabilities Additional functional improvements were implemented in the areas of performance and usability On the following slides, the most important improvements are described
A mass activity UI has been provided to allow the user to perform activities for multiple objects easily (create, activate, change access level, delete, change properties, mass overview of object states, ...)
In the Data Object structure editor, it is now possible to use the mass element creation dialog for the creation of elements serving as structure components
Multiple Catalogs
User settings support the definition of subsets of catalogs. Only this subset is made available directly in the Catalog view of the BRFplus workbench.
If there is more than one catalog defined, the Catalog view offers a menu for selecting a catalog from the personalized subset.
