Overview

Learn how to build full-stack, enterprise-ready SAP applications by mastering CDS views, OData services, and SAP Fiori Elements. This course will help you bridge backend ABAP development with UI-driven app design, enabling you to create responsive, secure, and reusable SAP S/4HANA solutions. You'll gain practical experience in data modeling, service enablement, and app development using SAP Business Application Studio. Module 1 teaches you to create and annotate CDS views for business data modeling, including UI annotations and metadata extensions. Module 2 focuses on exposing those models as OData services, securing them with role-based access control and Data Control Language (DCL), and enabling seamless integration with SAP UI5 apps. Module 3 guides you in building SAP Fiori List Report and Object Page applications using real-time backend data and Fiori Elements. By the end, you will... -Build optimized CDS views and apply metadata for UI integration -Expose data models securely as OData services for SAP Fiori apps -Apply DCL and role-based access control to protect sensitive business data -Create and deploy full-stack SAP Fiori apps using Business Application Studio Disclaimer: This course is an independent educational resource developed by Board Infinity and is not affiliated with, endorsed by, sponsored by, or officially associated with SAP SE or any of its subsidiaries or affiliates.

Syllabus

CDS View Modeling in S/4HANA

This module introduces learners to Core Data Services (CDS) as the foundation for data modeling in SAP S/4HANA. Learners will build basic and advanced CDS views, leverage annotations to enrich UI integration, and structure business data models with parent-child relationships. The module emphasizes metadata extensions, text associations, and advanced modeling techniques that support dynamic, scalable Fiori applications.

OData and Service Enablement

This module focuses on exposing CDS-based data models as OData services for external consumption and system integration. Learners will explore OData concepts, create and test services using both CDS annotations and the Service Builder (SEGW), and apply navigational logic with associations. The module also introduces security best practices, including role-based authorizations and DCL (Data Control Language), ensuring that services are secure and aligned with enterprise governance.

Building SAP Fiori Elements Apps

This module guides learners through the process of building modern SAP Fiori applications using CDS views and OData services as a backend. Learners will use SAP Business Application Studio (BAS) to develop List Report and Object Page apps, apply UI annotations for improved user experiences, and enhance interfaces with custom HTML, CSS, and JavaScript. The module culminates in a mini project, offering hands-on experience in full-stack development and deployment on the SAP Fiori Launchpad.
