Hi Friends,
It is a common requirement that a certain assignment block in overview page should only be displayed under some condition, for example under control of a business switch.
Here are three ways which could control the visibility of one assignment block via code.
Approach1: dynamical view detachment
refine method DETACH_STATIC_OVW_VIEWS of the controller class of your overview page. All views put into rt_viewid will be hidden by UI framework in the runtime.The code below means if a switch is turned on, the assignment block SearchResult will be hidden.
Approach2: dynamic UI configuration load
Create a new configuration within which only Search view is displayed. The configuration is bound to a certain UI object type.
Now we have two UI configurations. The standard configuration will display two assignment blocks by default, the configuration with UI object type = CRM_SMC will only display Search view.
Implement DO_CONFIG_DETERMINATION:
method DO_CONFIG_DETERMINATION. " IF search result view should be hidden me->set_config_keys( iv_object_type = 'CRM_SMC' iv_propagate_2_children = abap_false ). " ENDIF endmethod.
Approach3:
This is a most elegant way, however it could only be used if you would like to control the visibility of your view via a business switch.
When you are assigning your assignment view to the view area of Overview page in runtime repository, a business switch can be assigned.
If the switch is turned off, the related view will be automatically hidden by UI Framework.
