The SAP Fiori elements object page template supports the features and settings for the object page footer detailed below.

For design information, see the Object Page Floorplan guidelines and the links below.

Feature Availability

Footer Bar Actions

In create and edit modes, the footer bar appears at the bottom of the screen.

Save and Edit

You can enable this action in non-draft applications with SAP Fiori elements for OData V2.

With the Save and Edit action, users save current changes and stay on the object page to continue editing.

Save and Next

This action is enabled with SAP Fiori elements for OData V2 when the direct edit feature is enabled in the corresponding list report.

With the Save and Next action, users save current changes and navigate to the next editable object in the list report.

After they click Save and Next for the last editable object in the list report, they return to the list report.

Apply

You can enable this action in the footer bar of a subobject page in draft-enabled applications.

With the Apply action, users conclude the create or edit activity, save the draft, and navigate one step up in the object hierarchy to the object page.

Similarly, when the subobject page is open in flexible column layout with three column layout, clicking Apply now closes the column where the subobject is displayed and returns the user to the object page.

Message Popover Button

Turned on by default, the button is only visible when messages are present and allows the user to open the message popover. The color of the message button reflects the most crtical message level.

The message popover displays the count of error messages.

Messages without a criticality level are treated as information messages.

With SAP Fiori elements for OData V2, the messages in the message popover are grouped by section and table so users can easily locate where they need to take action.

Discard Draft

Displayed by default in edit mode for applications with draft-handling, this action button lets the users leave the object page without saving the changes they’ve made in a draft version of the object.

Cancel

Displayed by default in edit mode for applications without draft-handling this action button lets users leave the object page without saving changes they’ve made to the object.

Enabling / Disabling of Actions

You can enable or disable footer bar actions according to certain conditions. For example, to prevent users from archiving a sales order that is still being processed, you can enable the Archive action only for sales orders with the status Delivered or Cancelled.

Note that even if you disable all footer bar actions, the footer bar still appears onscreen for the display of the message popover, described above.

Keyboard Shortcuts for Actions

Keyboard shortcuts are available for basic operations.

You can also enable custom shortcuts for application-defined actions.
