Draft Handling

Intro

A draft is an interim version of a business entity that has not yet been explicitly saved as an active version. Drafts are saved automatically in the background whenever users add or change information within a business entity while in edit state (auto-save).

In SAP Fiori, drafts are used as follows:

  • To keep unsaved changes if an editing activity is interrupted, allowing users to resume editing later.
  • To prevent data loss if an app terminates unexpectedly.
  • As a locking mechanism to prevent multiple users from editing the same object concurrently, and to make users aware when there are unsaved changes by another user.

When a user starts creating a new business entity or edits an existing one, a draft is created in parallel in the background to enable field validation and dynamic field control (showing additional fields based on user interaction), and to provide default values for fields based on recent data entry. A draft can be validated for consistency and completeness at any time. This returns a list of messages. See the article on message handling to find out how to display messages.

While the user is modifying a business entity, a saving indicator shows when a draft is saved implicitly. The implicit save does not make the Save button redundant. Clicking the Save button is still necessary in order to incorporate the changes into an active business document.

Responsiveness

Sizes M and L offer enough space to display the saving indicator in the toolbar. If there is not enough space available, for example, on a smartphone, do not show the saving indicator. Also note that the text must never be truncated.

Types

Draft Types

Drafts can differ in terms of their visibility to different users and the interactions allowed. SAP Fiori currently employs an exclusive draft scenario. In this type of scenario, one user is the owner of the draft. As long as a user is working on an object, the business entity remains locked for other users until the lock period expires. When the lock expires, other users can discard any unsaved changes and start editing.

Editing Status

In a draft context, we differentiate between the following editing statuses:

  • Unchanged/active version
    • If all mandatory fields have been filled, and the entries are consistent in the business context, the user can save the entity as an “active” version. In other words, the changes are written into the database in the backend system.
    • “Unchanged” is the default status for a saved entity that no one is working on. There is no special indicator for this status on the screen. However, if you offer Editing Status as a filter, the user can filter for all entities that have no draft available. The filter in that case is called Unchanged.
  • Draft
    • A user’s own draft is tagged as Draft. The editing status to filter for a user’s own drafts is called Own Draft.
  • Locked
    • If a user is editing a business entity, it is locked for other users. The object remains locked until the user has finished editing or until the locking time has passed. The editing status to filter for locked entities is called Locked by Another User.
  • Unsaved changes
    • If the locking time has expired, other users can see that there are unsaved changes by the person who edited the object The editing status to filter for unsaved entities by other users is called Unsaved Changes by Another User.

The sap.m.objectMarker was developed to express the technical status of an object. The user name cannot be represented with the object marker.

For more information about the sap.m.objectMarker, see the article on object display elements.

Behavior and Interaction

When a user creates a new business entity or edits an existing one, it remains in Draft state until the user saves it.

The following interaction flow shows how the draft concept helps users to create and edit new business entities.

Create and Edit

In a create scenario, drafts belong to a single user. No other user has access to the draft while the object is being created.

New business entities that have not been explicitly created (activated) are known as “create-drafts”.

In scenarios where the object entity does not have a name or ID, use the format New [entity| as a placeholder in tables, lists, or messages. If an ID or name is available, use this information instead.

In an edit scenario, when a user is actively editing an object, no other user has access to the edit mode of that object. In parallel, a draft is created, which is a deep copy of the business document. As soon as the user starts editing, the editing status of the object changes to Draft.

Saved business entities that are being processed by someone are known as “edit-drafts”.

When the user is changing information in the object, those changes are also updated in the work list.

Global Edit Flow

In the global edit flow, there is only one Edit button on the main page. This button changes every linked subpage to edit mode. Users can navigate between the main page and subitems, or between individual subitems, without saving the changes explicitly. Navigating between items does not generate a success message confirming that the user’s draft was saved.

When the user switches to edit mode, the main page no longer shows the Edit button. Instead, two buttons are shown prompting the user to either cancel or activate/save the changes.

When the user leaves edit mode, display a success message confirming whether or not the draft was saved.

The saving indicator is placed in the toolbar on the main page and on subitems.

Select Multiple Items – Master List

The user can select multiple items in the master list as follows:

  • Display first or last item (default): Either the first or last (default) selected item remains visible in the details area. If the first or last selected item is a draft, show the object in edit mode and enable the buttons for activating and discarding the draft.
  • Display aggregate: The details area displays a summary of the selected items and offers some added value or functionality. If the selection includes a draft, use the data that is currently displayed in the draft, and not the last activated or saved data.

For more information about multiple selection of items, see the master list guideline.

Master list – Selecting multiple items
Master list – Selecting multiple items

Resume Editing

Once the user returns to the draft, the UI is displayed in edit mode and the user can resume editing. When the user exits the draft, the last modified status is auto-saved.

Resume editing
Resume editing

Activate/Save

If all mandatory fields have been filled and the entity has a consistent state independently and also within its business environment and business processes, users can incorporate the edits into an active business entity.

Saving an entity executes all necessary application logic and saves a consistent state. If errors occur that prevent the entity from being saved, users must first resolve these issues.

For more information, see messaging and form field validation.

If your use case requires further buttons apart from Save (for existing objects) or Create (for new objects), place them next to the Save or Create button. Examples might be Save and Next or Create and Next. For more information, see Manage Objects.

Save action – outdated draft

If the lock time expires due to a user’s inactivity, and another user starts editing in the meantime, display the following message:

Type: Error

Title: Error

Message text:

[Object] cannot be saved. A more recent version is available. Any changes you didn’t save were discarded.

Button: Close

Error message – Saving
Error message – Saving

Cancel Editing

If the user makes changes and clicks the Cancel button, display a popover (sap.m.Popover) to confirm that the draft should be deleted. The user must click outside the popover to close it.

If the user has not made any changes, the draft should be deleted, even if fields were already prefilled. To do so, use the CreatedAt and ChangedAt timestamps of the administrative data to check whether changes have been made to the draft entity.

Create-draft

For a create-draft, show the following message text:

Message text:

Discard this draft?

Button: Discard

 

When the user clicks Discard, display the following message:

Message text:

Draft discarded

Edit-draft

For an edit-draft, show the following message text:

Message text:

Discard all changes?

Button: Discard

 

When the user clicks Discard, display the following message:

Message text:
Changes discarded

Guidelines

When to Show Which Editing Status

When multiple users work on the same work list, there is always a chance that more than one user will try to edit the same object at any one time. This can lead to important edits being lost when multiple users submit their changes without informing one another. Therefore, a draft for a business entity acts as an edit lock, which forces object information to be changed sequentially.

In an edit scenario, when a user actively edits an object, no other user has access to the edit mode of that object. In parallel, a draft is created, which is a deep copy of the business document.

The object remains locked until the user has finished editing. In some use cases, the lock should expire automatically, for example, when the user who is blocking the object has been idle for a certain time.

If the lock time expires but the draft is still available, other users see that the object has been modified by someone else but not saved. Other users can then take over editing, which results in the changes or draft of that user being discarded.

This graphic shows how the draft concept helps users to work together asynchronously on a business entity and when to display which message.

How to Display the Editing Status

In most controls the editing status is clickable and provides access to additional information related to the draft, such as when the draft was created or who the owner of a draft is. Clicking the status opens a responsive popover that displays all relevant information.

Controls That Display the Editing Status

Object list item, object header, and object page header

If an object has a certain editing status, use one of the status properties of the object list item or object header. Do not overwrite existing status properties. Instead, use an additional status line to ensure that no information gets overwritten.

If an object is locked, has unsaved changes or is in draft state, set the ShowMarkers property of the object list item or object header to true and use the sap.m.objectMarker.

(1) Split-screen layout - Object list item; object view; (2) object page
(1) Split-screen layout - Object list item; object view; (2) object page

Tables

If you need to indicate the editing status of a business entity in a responsive table, place a link below the key information. Use sapUiTinyMarginTop to align the information in a responsive table.

If you need to indicate the editing status of a business entity in a non-responsive table, such as an analytical table, tree table, or grid table, provide an extra column for that information and place a transparent button inside. Name the column header Editing Status. The column should be placed after the main information on the table.

The editing status has different visualisations, such as icon only, icon and text, or text-only. Choose the one that is the most appropriate. Draft should always be displayed as text-only.

(1) Responsive table ; (2) non-responsive table
(1) Responsive table ; (2) non-responsive table

Upload Set

The upload set control uses the sap.m.objectMarker to display the editing status. The default behavior for the editing status is as follows:

On L/M size:

  • Locked and Unsaved Changes are displayed as icons and text, while Draft is displayed as text.

On S size:

  • Locked and Unsaved Changes are displayed as icons, while Draft is displayed as text.
Upload set - Attachments with the statuses 'Locked', 'Draft', and 'Unsaved Changes'
Upload set - Attachments with the statuses 'Locked', 'Draft', and 'Unsaved Changes'

Editing Status Popovers

Trigger

When the user clicks the editing status, a responsive popover appears and displays draft-related administrative information.

Popover trigger: (1) responsive table; (2) non-responsive table; (3) object page header
Popover trigger: (1) responsive table; (2) non-responsive table; (3) object page header

Dimensions

The popover has a minimum height and width to ensure that the size of the dialog does not vary too much between the initial load and the display of information.

Draft popover – Dimensions

Types

When the user clicks the editing status, a popover will appear with information on who has locked an object or who has unsaved changes.

If the user’s name is not available or cannot be retrieved, replace the user’s actual name with “another user”.

The images show the different use cases.

Which Information Is Shown

If the user edits an entity, update the changed information immediately in the corresponding lists, such as the work list or the object list item. All other users will see the active or most recently saved data of the entity.

Saving Indicator

When a user adds or changes information within a business entity, an indicator shows the user that these changes have been saved as a draft.

If no changes have been made, nothing is shown.

If the changes could not be saved, do not show an indicator. If necessary, use a message box to inform the user about the issue.

If not enough space is available, do not show an indicator. Also note that the text should not be truncated.

Flexible Column Layout

In the flexible column layout, the saving indicator is always placed in the toolbar of the main page/item. If the users switches to the full-screen view of the subitem, the saving indicator is located in the toolbar of the subitem.

States

There are two different states:

State 1: Saving draft …

Display state 1 after every content change that triggers a background save (draft). State 1should be shown for at least 1.5 seconds.


State 2:
Draft saved

Display state 2 after the draft has been saved. State 2 should also be shown for at least 1.5 seconds.

Saving indicator position: (1) split-screen layout; (1.1) full screen layout; (1.2.) flexible column layout.

Bookmarking and Deep Linking

A page of an application that is not its entry page can be bookmarked or shared as a deep link. Ideally, the full UI state of the page will be retrieved. Technically this includes every part that is represented in the URL. For more information, see the article on deep linking.

Bookmarking an entity in active status

If a bookmark is called for an active entity for which no draft exists, open the entity in display mode.

If a bookmark is called for an active entity for which a draft exists, display a dialog asking the user whether he or she wants to resume editing or discard the draft.

The dialog contains the following information:

Type: Confirmation

Title: Resume Editing

Message text:

We saved a draft of your changes to [entity] on August 8, 2015 17:35.

Do you want to resume editing or discard the changes?

Buttons: Resume | Discard

If the user resumes editing via Resume, the last implicitly saved state will be displayed in edit mode. If the user clicks the Back button, the active entity will not displayed. Instead, the previous entry before the user navigated to the active instance will be displayed. Consequently, navigation to the draft does not create an entry for back navigation.

If the user chooses Discard, the page will show the original (active) document in display mode and the following message informing the user that the draft was deleted:

Message text:

Changes discarded

Bookmarking a draft

If a bookmark is called for an entity that was bookmarked while in draft state, open the entity in edit mode.

If the bookmark relates to an entity that no longer exists due to an action that triggered its deletion, such as Save or Discard, or if it cannot be accessed, display an empty page.

Message text:

The [entity] is no longer available.
[App name as link]

If a user shares a link to an entity with another user, the other user will be taken to the display view of the entity. If a different user’s draft exists, the page shows the appropriate editing status, such as Locked by [user name].

Deep Linking

When one user navigates from one application to an entity in another application, and this entity has a draft created by that particular user, display a dialog asking whether the user wants to resume editing or discard the draft.

The dialog contains the following information:

Type: Confirmation

Title: Resume Editing

Message text:

We saved a draft of your changes to [entity] on August 8, 2015 17:35.

Do you want to resume editing or discard the changes?

Buttons: Resume | Discard

If the user resumes editing via Resume, the last implicitly saved state will be displayed in edit mode. If the user clicks the Back button, the active entity will not displayed. Instead, the previous entry before the user navigated to the active instance will be displayed. Consequently, navigation to the draft does not create an entry for back navigation.

If the user selects Discard, the page will show the original (active) document in display mode, and the following message informing the user that the draft was deleted:

Sorting, Filtering, and Grouping

Sorting

The table in a work list is sorted by a property defined either by the app (default sorting) or by the user, such as a key identifier, date, or status.
Draft entities are sorted by the same criteria. If the property is empty in the draft entity, the item appears at top. The table can also be sorted by Draft. In an ascending order, the entities that are in draft state or locked appear at the top. In a descending order, these items appear at the bottom.

Sorted by rating
Sorted by rating

Filtering

The table in a worklist is filtered by the properties defined by the app (by default) or by the user. Draft objects are filtered by the same criteria. If those properties are empty in the draft entity, the item will not match the criteria and will not be shown.

The table can also be filtered by Editing Status with the following values:

Editing Status Description
 All  Displays all entities
 Own Draft  Displays a user’s own draft only
Locked by Another User  Displays all entities that are currently in progress by someone
Unsaved Changes by Another User  Displays all entities with unsaved changes (lock expired, draft of someone is still available)
 Unchanged  Displays all entities that have no draft
Filtered by editing status
Filtered by editing status

Grouping

The table in a work list is grouped by the properties defined by the app (by default) or by the user. Draft entities are grouped accordingly. If the property is empty in the draft entity, this creates a group of its own, which appears at the top of the table.

Follow this guideline for empty properties:

[Filter criteria]: Not Defined

Grouped by rating
Grouped by rating

Actions and Messaging

The editing status of an entity also has implications for any actions the user executes:

  • Locked items can never be edited, updated, or deleted.
  • Update actions cannot be applied to a user’s own draft.
  • Users can delete their drafts and any objects for which the lock expired.

If your app offers mass actions with multiple selection, you may also need to consider potential conflicts – some actions may not be feasible if only some of the selected items can be processed. The sections below outline the different use cases and corresponding user messages.

Message Handling

We distinguish between edit, update, and delete actions:

  • Edit: Open an object in edit mode.
  • Update: Trigger changes to the latest active version, such as Post and Approve.
  • Delete: Remove from the database.
Editing Status/Action Edit Update Delete
Active Version (actively saved, no draft or unsaved changes exist) Editing allowed; no message Update allowed; no message Deletion allowed; warning
Locked (draft locked by another user) Never allow editing; error Never update; error Never delete; error
Draft (user’s own draft) Editing allowed; no message Use case-dependent Deletion allowed; warning
Unsaved Changes (draft by another user) Editing allowed; warning Update allowed; warning Deletion allowed; warning

“Keep Draft” Dialog

Display the “Keep Draft” whenever a user wants to leave a page in edit mode. The dialog allows the user to decide whether to keep the current draft or discard it.

Use the “Keep Draft” dialog if:

  • The user has made changes in edit mode and wants to leave the page.

This applies for both new drafts and existing drafts:

  • New draft: There is no previous draft for this object and user. The user has just started editing the object and made changes.
  • Existing draft: The user has resumed work on an existing draft and made changes.

Do not use the “Keep Draft” dialog if:

  • The user hasn’t made any changes before leaving the page. In this case, do not create a draft.

Dialog specifications:

  • Type: Warning
  • Title: Unsaved Changes
  • Message text: Do you want to keep your draft changes for later?
  • Buttons: Keep Draft | Discard Draft | Cancel
