Creating new projects

If properties that are defined in the web project (languages, display settings, menu structure) are going to be changed, you must make a copy of the default web project.

NOTE: This task is different to creating an object copy. For more information, see Creating object copies with the wizard.

To create a new project

  1. In the Edit menu, select the Create new project item.
  2. Enter the name of the new web project in the Identifier field.
  3. In the Template field, select a template.

    NOTE: Other projects are available to you as templates, not just the default project. You will see different menu items and workflow for use in your new project, depending on which web project you took as a template.

  4. In the option box, select the menu items or modules from the web project you selected as the template and want to use in your copy.

    The modules are still referenced from the customized web project.

    NOTE: Check the modules options in the tree selection. To add the modules to a new project, you must set the option next to the module. Simply disable or do not enable the modules you do not want to have in the web project. Use Select all/deselect all to select or deselect all modules at once.

  5. Click Next.

    Continue to add the new module. Next, the Create new project - New project view shows all changes made.

  6. Click Finished.

    Details of the new web project are displayed in the definition tree view.

  7. Click Save.

    The web project is added as a new file.

To view the new web project

Adding new components

You can add new components in the following ways. If you want to create a new component for an object dependent reference, you use a wizard to add the object dependent reference as well as the new component conveniently. The wizard can also help you set up column-dependent references. Both variations are described in the steps below.

To add new components using the navigation view

  1. Select Components in the navigation view.
  2. In the navigation view toolbar, click .

    NOTE: The nodes are grouped on the basis of the reference type's grouping column. You can select products and product groups from the AccProduct table. If you have selected the product group, its products do not have to be selected explicitly.
  6. On the Enter the component name page, enter a name for the component and click Next.

    The object-dependent reference and the component are generated.

  7. Click Finish.

    The reference and component are added and shown on a new tab.

Customizing object definitions

Copy existing objects with Web Designer and customize them. Not only is there a wizard to help you here, but you can also copy the desired object directly within the definition tree view.

Extensions can be used as another way of customizing objects. For more information, see Extensions.

To create a copy of an object

  1. In the definition tree view, select an object.
  2. Click .

    This opens the Copy object dialog.

  3. the field in the Copy name* column on the Object copy properties page and overwrite the preset name.
  4. Click the field in the Description column and enter an optional description for the object.
  5. Enable the Add substitution rule for current object option and click Next.

    Your entries and settings are processed and displayed on the Processing page.

  6. Click Finish.

    The object copy is displayed in the definition tree view.

    NOTE: If you view an object in the definition tree view for which a substitution rule was defined, a header with a corresponding comment is shown above the object.

    NOTE: After an object has been assigned a substitution rule, a button is added in the Node editor view below to provide further information. Click to display the object being substituted in the definition tree view.

    NOTE: If you copied a default object, future changes to the default object are not transferred to the object copy. This will be the case after a migration, for example.
