1. Open the project with decision support application in SAP Web IDE.

2. Open the manifest.json in the Code Editor.

   

3. Update the value of JSON key sap.ui5.extends.extensions.sap.ui.viewExtensions.sap.suite.ui.generic.template.ObjectPage.view.Details as follows:

   "BeforeSubSection|RSInsts|ColumnFacet": {
     "className": "sap.ui.core.mvc.View",
     "viewName": "<HTML5 Module Name>.ext.view.EventInfo",
     "viewData": {
       "settings": {
         "modelName": "sharedJSON"
       }
     },
     "type": "XML",
     "sap.ui.generic.app": {
       "title": "",
       "enableLazyLoading": true
     }
   }
   

4. Replace <HTML5 Module Name> with the name of the decision support HTML5 module. You can find this name from the sap.app.id property in the same manifest.json. In this example, it’s greenhousedecisionsupport.

5. Save the changes.

1. Under the webapp folder add an ext folder.

   

2. Inside ext folder, add 2 additional folders controller and view.

3. Inside the controller folder, add a new file named EventInfo.controller.js.

   

4. Copy the following content into the file:

   (function () {
   	"use strict";
   	/*global sap, jQuery */
   
   	sap.ui.controller("<HTML5 Module Name>.ext.controller.EventInfo", {
   		onBeforeRendering:function() {
   			var settings = this.getView().getViewData().settings;
   			if (!this._initModel && settings) {
   				this._initModel = true;
   				var sharedModel = this.getView().getModel(settings.modelName);
   				this.getView().setModel(sharedModel);
   				this.getView().bindElement("/extData/<EXTERNALIZED_DATA_ALIAS>");
   			}
   		}
   	});
   })();    
   

5. Replace <HTML5 Module Name> with sap.app.id in manifest.json. It’s the same name used in Step 2.

6. Replace <EXTERNALIZED_DATA_ALIAS> with the alias defined in Step 1 of this tutorial.

7. Save the file.

   

8. Inside the view folder, add a new file named EventInfo.view.xml with the following content:

   <mvc:View controllerName="<HTML5 Module Name>.ext.controller.EventInfo"
   	xmlns:mvc="sap.ui.core.mvc" xmlns="sap.m"
   	xmlns:f="sap.ui.layout.form"
   	xmlns:core="sap.ui.core">
   		<f:SimpleForm editable="false" layout="ColumnLayout" title="" columnsM="2" columnsL="3" columnsXL="4">
   			<f:content>
           <core:Title text="{@i18n>deviceInformation}" />

   				<Text text="{exception}" />
   				<Label text="{@i18n>ServicePriorityCode}" />

   				<core:Title text="{@i18n>additionalInfo}" />
   				<Label text="{@i18n>InstallationPointId}" />
   				<Text text="{InstallationPointID}" />
   				<Label text="{@i18n>DataOriginTypeCode}" />
   				<Text text="{DataOriginTypeCode}" />
   			</f:content>
