How to merge same tiles on ABAP FLP coming from different catalogs?

[former_member558396]

Hi guys,

I have several fiori catalogs containing same tiles resp. applications assigned to same user, so the tiles are rendered double in the app finder. On SAP EP I have the option to use merge id's resp use "remove double tiles" option on the Portal Fiori framework page, which works simple and effective. How can I do the same on ABAP?

I have seen this blog https://blogs.sap.com/2016/02/29/sap-fiori-launchpad-control-visibility-of-tiles-by-separation-of-ti... written by carola.steinmaier , but this approach doesnt correlates with permissions concept of the customer and we dont want to go with it. Thank you,

cheers

Hi Sreehari,

thank you for your support.

Standard application you are talking about ?

yes, but this doesnt matters: this question is independent from kind of applications you wanna place

How I handle this scenario -
One tile in one catalog . And the groups have corresponding applications added .

bad idea imho in view of permissions provisioning and maintenace, even worse than the approach propagated by SAP

kind regards

Sentence “ Several Fiori catalogues with same tile” is confusing me . Standard application you are talking about ?

I think ( just a thought ), to assign applications properly to the users , you created multiple combinations of tiles in different catalogues. And yes of course, there is a chance of having several caralogues having same tiles .

How I handle this scenario -

One tile in one catalog . And the groups have corresponding applications added .

Also , for each app , I create a role in pfcg , adding the catalog and the group .

If a user needs access to 3 applications , I assign 3 roles to the user . Which assigns , 3 catalogs , and its groups to the user . No duplication of tiles , no confusions !!!
