Fiori disaster
Fiori app jungle
What started out as an innovation has now become a plague of locusts. There are far too many Fiori apps. Users report a click marathon between the various apps and would like to see consolidation to just a few relevant apps. However, the question arises as to who can and should capture these innovations.
Ultimately, only the users can decide what is needed. Here, a certification and consolidation body for Fiori apps at the DSAG user association might be an exit strategy. SAP competes too much with its partners in some places, so it will be difficult to reach agreement on what is necessary. The fact is that SAP imprudently opened Pandora's box with Fiori and now has no plan for capturing this fireworks display of innovation.
SAP will have to come up with some ideas for the purpose of Fiori consolidation, because the current situation is counterproductive and damages the acceptance of S/4. And so SAP is now suffering the same fate as the sorcerer's apprentice in Wolfgang Goethe's poem of the same name: "Stand! Stand! For we have measured thy gifts full! Oh, I realize it! Woe! woe! Have I forgotten the word!" with which the Fiori disaster can be brought to an end.

Die Herausforderung den SAP Anwerder*innen passend zur Rolle die Apps sinnvoll in Katalogen und Gruppen zu packen ist nicht neu. Auch schon im ERP gab es die möglichkeit Rollenspezifische Benutzermenüs zu erstellen. Dieses Thema fällt aber in den meisten Implementierungsprojekten hinten runter. Bei 14.123 Apps für S/4HANA die in der SAP Fiori Apps Reference Library gelistet werden haben 2.770 den Application Type Fiori definiert. Das zu ordnen ist trotz der von SAP gelieferten Standardrollen eine große Herausforderung.
