Creating an Application Definition

An application definition is required for all applications.

Determine whether or not you need to set an application ID or whether one is already assigned to the application. For example, for Hybrid Apps, developers can preconfigure this ID.

  1. In SAP Control Center, click the Applications node and select the Applications tab in the right administration pane.
  2. Click New.
  3. Set the general properties for the application:
    • An application ID, if one is not already set. See Setting General Application Properties in SAP Control Center for SAP Mobile Platform for application ID guidelines.
    • A display name and an optional description.
    • (Recommended) Select a template and override template properties as required. Otherwise, you can configure properties for single application use only. For Hybrid Apps you can use the HWC template that exists for this application type.
    • The domain to which the application is assigned.
    • (Optional) Assign one or more packages to the application.
  4. Click Finish to complete the definition.
