Hi,

Business ADD IN -

New SAP enhancement technique based on ABAP Objects . Can be inserted into the SAP System to accommodate user requirements too specific to be included in the standard delivery.

definition view

an application programmer predefines exit points in a source that allow specific industry sectors, partners, and customers to attach additional software to standard SAP source code without having to modify the original object .

implementation view

the users of Business Add-Ins can customize the logic they need or use a standard logic if one is available .

Based on oops concept. Advanced form of User Exits.Standard BADIs are defined in SAP.

Architecture.

In order to enhance a program, a Business Add-In must first be defined.

Application developers create an interface for the add-in.

Enhancement management takes this interface and generates an adapter class for implementing it, thus opening a path for implementations created by partners or customers.

developers then creates an instance of the adapter class in the application program and calls the corresponding method at the appropriate time.

BADI Definition Transaction : SE18

BADI Implementation Transaction : SE19

Example Program.

REPORT BADI .

DATA EXIT TYPE REF TO IF_EX_BADI.

DATA WORD(15) TYPE C.

CALL METHOD CL_EXITHANDLER=>GET_INSTANCE

CHANGING INSTANCE = EXIT.

START-OF-SELECTION.

WRITE:/ 'Please click here'.

AT LINE-SELECTION.

NEW-PAGE.

WORD = 'Business add in'.

WRITE:/ 'Original word: ', WORD.

CALL METHOD EXIT->METHOD

CHANGING

PARAMETER = WORD.

WRITE:/ 'Changed word: ', WORD.

For further examples you can check out in SAP LIbrary-BC-ABAP Workbench Tools.

How to find badi : Refer the link below.

/people/alwin.vandeput2/blog/2006/04/13/how-to-search-for-badis-trace-it

You can put a breakpoint in method get_instance of class cl_exithandler and debug your transaction. The parameter exit_name will give you the Badi's in that transaction.

I have a very good doc on the same. Please give me your email so that I can send the same to you.

Hi Umsh,

First thing is that you cannot create your own Badis.

You have to implement an existing badi only.

badis are nothing but te provision of modifying the sap standard screens/logic withhout mdifying the actual program.

If you know how to code for OOPS in ABAP, then it is the same way for coding in a badi.

Ravi

Badi's are the enhancements techniques with new version like exits in old.

It allows you to maintain multiple implementation for a single badi and activate anyone.

Its logic is same as exits that if SAP have provided a badi at some place you can use it otherwise not.

Hi Umesh,

You can give your own implementation to the existing BAdI .Also you can create your own BAdI definition and implementation.

You can create a BAdI definition in SE18. When you give a BAdI definition name, an interface will be automatically for you.

For eg: if the name is ZSP_BADIDEF then the created interface name will be ZIF_EX_SP_BADIDEF.

In the interface, you can define the various methods for performing various operations.

You can provide the implementation for the Definition in SE19. When implementation name is given, it will ask for the defintion name. Upon giving the defn. name, a class implementing the interface will be created.

You can give the coding to each and every method in the interface through the class.

Now you must activate everything including the implementation to enable the changes to be reflected.

To provide implementation for standard transaction, you have to find if BAdIs exist for them. In System->Status, you will get the program implementing the transaction.

There search for CL_EXITHANDLER=>GET_INSTANCE. There from the importing parameter(INSTANCE) , find the interface name involved in the BAdI definition. From there remove IF_EX_ and you will get the BAdI definition name.

Goto SE19 and give the implementation and defintion name.

You will get a class , which will implement your set of codes. You can code in the methods of the class.

Refer these documents .
