Despite the design principle of device independence, Fiori unfortunately does not mean that every Fiori app from the Fiori Apps Library can automatically be used on mobile devices.<\/p>\n<p>A look at the library shows that many applications are based on WebDynpro and are therefore not suitable for smartphone and tablet.<\/p>\n<h3>SAP's marketing trick box<\/h3>\n<p>Malicious tongues could claim that SAP is reaching deep into its marketing bag of tricks here, because interesting Fiori applications with a high customer benefit are often only provided for a Hana database or even only for S\/4.<\/p>\n<p>In addition, there is confusion when it comes to choosing the right web application development environment. Should it be Eclipse with a jungle of plug-ins, a WebIDE installed on premise with a reduced range of functions or the WebIDE in the Hana cloud?<\/p>\n<p>As a user, you quickly feel left alone here and are tempted to fall in love with the old interfaces again.<\/p>\n<p>SAP's strategy may certainly also have technological reasons, but it does not hide the fact that the main aim is to create an incentive to make the leap to Hana or S\/4.<\/p>\n<h3>Into the mobile world with existing licenses<\/h3>\n<p>Nevertheless, users should not be discouraged so quickly, as there are a number of tools available for the design and use of Fiori apps within the scope of the existing licenses.<\/p>\n<p>With the SAPUI5 toolbox, the associated design concept and the app templates supplied, the first Fiori applications can be implemented and connected to SAP business applications in a very short time.<\/p>\n<p>Especially if the Fiori Library does not contain the right application for your own processes. The infrastructure requirements are minimal and can be scaled to the respective use case as usual.<\/p>\n<p>You may need a service provider to design your own apps. However, the effort is manageable and worthwhile in any case.<\/p>\n<p>In this way, SAP's approach of not only integrating occasional users in warehouses and production halls or approvers at train stations, highways and airports into the processes, but also generating acceptance for the software, is fulfilled in a small roundabout way.<\/p>\n<p>This is a huge step towards usability and away from the old, somewhat dusty interfaces.<\/p>\n<p>And even if many Fiori apps require a Hana database or S\/4, the range of apps for the classic Business Suite is already very extensive and has the best chances of significantly improving the acceptance of SAP applications, which is urgently needed in some cases, and not waiting for the concrete S\/4 strategy.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/e3mag.com\/partners\/gisa\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" title=\"Fiori and ui5 - via detours into the mobile world\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-11367 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/e3mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/ci-banner_gisa.jpg\" alt=\"https:\/\/e3mag.com\/partners\/gisa\/\" width=\"1000\" height=\"112\" srcset=\"https:\/\/e3mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/ci-banner_gisa.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/e3mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/ci-banner_gisa-768x86.jpg 768w, https:\/\/e3mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/ci-banner_gisa-100x11.jpg 100w, https:\/\/e3mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/ci-banner_gisa-480x54.jpg 480w, https:\/\/e3mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/ci-banner_gisa-640x72.jpg 640w, https:\/\/e3mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/ci-banner_gisa-720x81.jpg 720w, https:\/\/e3mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/ci-banner_gisa-960x108.jpg 960w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><\/a><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The topic of mobility of business applications and improved user acceptance continues to be an exciting topic with potential in the SAP universe.
