Hello All,
We are planning to scrap our existing WD java application and building same functionality in SAPUI5. Before starting I would like to ask some question from the experts.
1. As we can directly migrate the application, how to start? we have some complex screens, will would it be possible to replicate the same in UI5?
2. Shall we convert or write the code from scratch to have convert Function modules into OData Services?
3. Is Jquery is mandatory to write the complex codes?
4. Currently, application are on SAP portal 7.3, how it would be deployed and how will these be accessible to users? Because currently I am creating the application on locally.
5. We are using NWDI for transports and NWDS for source code control, how will that be possible with UI5?
6. How to estimate the UI5 development, is there any standard tool to estimate? Let's assume developers are the beginner and we have one scenario in which we are calling the RFC with some input and it is returning the results. At WD java controller we are filtering the results according to some permission and then filtered data is displayed in a table with the download to excel, print, sorting and column filtering functionality, how much efforts will it take?
7. As it is client side processing, what about the security of the application and it's data?
Regards,
Mayank Saxena
