BRF +

It is fully integrated with SAP Fiori apps. Brand new email support that delivers templates, multiple recipients, and

many other features. Unified customization across different SAP modules, applying the same

look and feel. Separation of content and layout with Adobe forms with fragments.

Flexible output parameter determination with BRFplus: Each determination can be based on app-specific fields that
are extendable. No limits when designing determination rules (many messages to many recipients,
sent with many different channels). Predelivered content can be applied.

Core Data Services (CDS) views ensure extensibility. Future investments and features will be introduced only
in the new framework. No ABAP user exits and hardcodes. Generic logic is introduced for out- put parameter
determination, as depicted in Table 1.

There are no plans to retire the NAST-based output management of SAP Business Suite. Nevertheless, no new
features will be introduced into the old framework. NAST-based output management is still available in SAP
S/4HANA.

Output control uses BRFplus for the output parameter determination. Technically, BRFplus is based on Web
Dynpro applications. Therefore, you first need to set up ICF services.

Reverting to NAST in SAP S/4HANA

As mentioned, the new output management for SAP S/4HANA is not mandatory. Nevertheless, it is set as
default for many applications in the on- premise SAP S/4HANA systems. This section provides you with steps
to follow if you decide to stay with the earlier version of output management on your SAP S/4HANA system. This
section describes how to revert to the old, condition-based technique for output determination. Even though the
new, BRFplus-based method is intended to be the default procedure in SAP S/4HANA, you can switch to the
traditional condition technique. However, depending on the application you are using and the SAP S/4HANA
version, there are different ways of doing that. We will focus
