Transaction codes
FAB is hosted within the SAP ERP back-end system. There are four main transaction codes that are used during application development.
Development and Configuration:
/IQX/FAB - This transaction navigates to the core FAB tool - FAB Workbench. FAB Workbench is the integrated workbench (ABAP and javascript) used to create/modify FAB application i.e. back-end, front-end UI and workflow.
/IQX/FAB_CONFIG - This transaction can apply system and application-specific configuration i.e. configuration of application access; workflow assignment and grouping of applications.
Troubleshooting
When the /IQX/FAB causes a dump when opening an application, the most likely cause is that the user preferences for the workbench and that app have been corrupted. To reset the preferences, the transaction code /IQX/FAB_RECOVER can be used to first open the app. Once open, save the app and the standard /IQX/FAB transaction can be used again.
Reporting and Analysis:
/IQX/FAB_DATA - This transaction displays application transactional data, including form field values, status of request and workflow details. As well as allowing form status modification.
/IQX/FAB_ANALYSIS - This transaction logs the field history of each transaction generated by an application.
Step-by-step guide
It is suggested you save these transactions under your SAP Easy Access Menu > Favorites. This can be done by:
- Clicking on 'Favorites',
- Selecting 'Insert Transaction'
- Entering the transaction code and selecting the green tick.
