Fiori Client CopyUn-assign Alias

Challenges:

▪ Once Fiori Client Copy has finished a manual deletion of system alias assignments needs to be executed.

o Currently this means the user must execute transaction “/IWFND/MAINT_SERVICE” and manually delete the assignments one by one.

▪ Accelerate Fiori Client Copy Post-processing steps.

▪ Fiori Administrators often need to maintain multiple OData assignments. This is currently done manually.

Solution:

▪ Create custom program based on standard:

o INCLUDE /IWFND/R_MGW_REGISTRATION_F01 Form UNASSIGN_SYSTEM_ALIAS

▪ Add logging capabilities (not included in standard)

▪ Offers 4 options:

o Delete single assignments

o Delete all assignments related to system alias

o Replace assignments

o Download list of active services

• Tested in S/4HANA 1709, 1610, 1511
