Step 2 - Register your component in the repository

Next up, you must make your component known to the system. In IMG configuration, navigate to "Define Work Area

Component Repository" as shown below.

;

Create New entries as shown below.

Now, add the inbound plug info. For our purposes, we need not specify an outbound plug.

Now, you may realize why we added the inbound plugs while specifying the component interface. Each inbound plug is

attached with an action and you may write code in the plug, specific to the object action. Though the Target ID is mandatory,

specifying inbound plug/object action is optional. While dynamically navigating to a component or loading the component via

work center link, the object action may be specified and the corresponding plug will be called. This will be explained in

another wiki.

Step 3 - Specify Navigation Bar Profile

Go to the IMG node "Define Navigation Bar Profile" as shown below.

Test

I messed up a bit with this screen shot. I forgot to take the screen cap before I rolled back the changes. I have altered the

screen using MS paint, but rest assured that the link will show up. The final screen shot shows the loaded component in web

ui. It is a test search page component. We have added the custom component as a link in an existing work center(Sales

Cycle). However, you can create your own work center or make use of the standard work centers. For example to get the

"group links", you may reuse the logical link id "WCACLACLA". You may need to tweak it though.
