3715595 - It is not possible to create Public Views for applications in SAP S/4HANA Cloud Public Edition

Symptom

Users are not able to create public views for applications since the "Public" checkbox is not available.

Environment

SAP S/4HANA Cloud Public Edition

Reproducing the Issue

  1. In sap open any app and give all the parameters and click on go
  2. Save the variant with the suitable name
  3. Public option to save the variant in public is not available

Cause

Fiori Launchpad is configured with parameter "UI5FLEX_ENABLE_VARIANTS" as "PRIVATE". 

This parameter specify if users are allowed to create and adapt views and whether they're allowed to share them (see Save Your Personal Settings as a View).

This is a global setting. There are three options:

  • PUBLIC (default)

    Users are allowed to create and adapt new views. By selecting the Public checkbox, they can also share them with other users.

  • PRIVATE

    Users are allowed to create and adapt new views, but the Public checkbox is not displayed, preventing users from sharing views.

  • NONE

    Users are not allowed to create or adapt views. They can still set a view as favorite and change their default view. Optionally, they can also choose whether a view should be applied automatically, meaning a search should immediately be triggered as soon as the view is selected.

Resolution

To allow the creation of PUBLIC views, it's necessary to change the parameter in Manage Launchpad Settings application.

To use this, the Business catalog SAP_CORE_BC_UI which is included in Business Role template SAP_BR_ADMINISTRATOR is required.
