Included with membership

Think Tanks con­nect you with peers nav­i­gat­ing the same chal­lenges and oppor­tu­ni­ties as you. ASUG will facil­i­tate an inter­ac­tive peer-to-peer exchange where solu­tions are shared for top­ics spe­cif­ic to your role and interest.

  • Do you know that devel­op­ing a cus­tom Fiori app can breathe new life into your users’ expe­ri­ence by giv­ing them a new, mod­ern user inter­face (UI)? 

  • Has your orga­ni­za­tion embraced the use of SAP Fiori Apps, either off the shelf from SAP or cus­tom developed? 

  • How does Fiori fit into your long-term UX road map? 

The for­mat for Mon­day, Aug. 10 at 12 p.m. CT will include: 

  • Brief wel­come and kick­off from ASUG 

  • Rapid case study led by ASUG mem­ber Jason Sprunk and Liz Simp­son from Rock­well Automation 

  • The dis­cus­sion will focus on: 

  • Rock­well Automation’s five-plus-year jour­ney with using SAP Fiori to dri­ve val­ue and improve UX 

  • The organization’s cur­rent migra­tion expe­ri­ences to HTML5 

  • Hear­ing from atten­dees on their expe­ri­ences with Fiori 

  • Shar­ing of recent wins or suc­cess­es, along with resources utilized 

Gain vis­i­bil­i­ty into the chal­lenges and suc­cess­es oth­er SAP cus­tomers are expe­ri­enc­ing, and acquire new ideas for real-world solutions. 

If you are expe­ri­enc­ing chal­lenges and would like to lead your own case study, fill out the sur­vey here. 

Think Tank Insights:

Fiori App

  • More mod­ern look/​feel with a flex­i­ble layout
  • Not teth­ered to SAP release cycle 
    • Helps to cre­ate flex­i­ble Fiori fron end changes
    • Does­n’t always fol­low ABAP back­end cycle
  • Cre­at­ed a sub­scrip­tion process 
    • Users can self-sub­scribe to learn of changes

Mod­ern­iza­tion

  • Abil­i­ty to add com­ponenet and update the look and feel of teh platform 
    • HTML5 — Mod­ern platform 
      • Dif­fer­ent look/​feel of the screen
      • New users’ interface
      • Enable inte­gra­tion with live chat feature

What do we do next? (S/4 HAHA? Could?.…)

  • Hav­ing this kind of UI, it does­n’t mat­ter what direc­tion the orga­ni­za­tion goes
  • This UI allows you to add as you need and your users’ expe­ri­ence does­n’t have to change overnight

How do we max­i­mize the invest­ment in ECC now but reduce the amount of net­work when mov­ing to S/4?

  • Fiori plat­form allows to plug in capa­bil­i­ties no mat­ter where they exist, even in cloud
  • Much is reusable in S/4 world
