It provides a simplified developer experience, AI-based code generation with Joule copilot that drives productivity, is tailored for SAP development and supports fusion development by teams of professional and citizen developers.
This blog focuses on leveraging Joule’s generative AI features for SAP Fiori application development directly from the business requirement description(user story) prompt.
Business Requirement
Create an SAP Fiori application as per the requirements outlined in the user story below:
User Story
As a contract administrator, I want to create and manage contracts and ‘parties involved’ information in the system, so that I can effectively track and handle legal agreements and ‘parties involved’ interactions.
Contracts can cover a vast range of agreements, such as sales contracts, service agreements and employment contracts.
Party involved: A ‘party involved’ is an individual, organization, or entity that purchases goods, products, or services from another party, typically a business or seller.
Common attributes of a contract might include:
- Contract ID: A unique identifier for the contract.
- Party involved Identification Number: A unique identification number for the party involved.
- Contract Type: The type of contract (e.g. sales, service, employment).
- Start Date: The date on which the contract becomes valid.
- End Date: The date on which the contract expires (if applicable).
- Status: The current status of the contract (draft, active, expired, terminated, etc.)
A typical ‘party involved’ has the following attributes:
- Party involved Identification Number
- Party involved Name: It refers to the given name of a person or entity, or a label by which they are addressed or identified.
- Party involved Address: It refers to a physical location where an individual, business, or entity is situated or can be reached.
- Party involved Contact Information
Acceptance Criteria
Scenario 1: List All Contracts
Given I am logged into the contract management system, when I launch the SAP Fiori application to maintain contracts, then I should be able to view the list of all the contracts in a list without pressing the GO button. The list of all the contracts should have : Contract ID, Party involved Identification Number, Contract Type and Start Date. The list of filters should include Contract Type, Contract Status and Start Date.
Scenario 2: View Contract Details
Given I am logged into the contract management system, when I select a specific contract from the list of SAP Fiori application, then I should be able to view the contract details and parties involved information.
