SAP Fiori

Reimagine the SAP user experience
with SAP Fiori

Personalise and simplify the user experience (UX) for your SAP applications. Using modern UX design principles, SAP Fiori delivers a role-based, consumer-grade user experience across all lines of business, tasks, and devices. Use SAP Fiori apps, or take advantage of new solutions that natively incorporate the UX – such as SAP S/4HANA, Ariba Mobile, and SAP Cloud for Customer.

Why SAP Fiori?

SAP Fiori 2.0 is the latest evolution of the user experience for SAP S/4HANA. The user-centered design concept focuses on the way employees work and offers a variety of business benefits:

  • Increased productivity – faster and direct access to relevant information and applications
  • Transparency on items needing your attention – timely notifications
  • Helps users decide what needs to be done next
  • Allows users to take quick and informed actions
  • Increased user satisfaction

What you need to know about SAP Fiori 2.0:    

  • SAP Fiori 2.0 is the leading design for all SAP applications providing a harmonised user experience across on premise and cloud solutions. A new visual theme – named Belize – comes along with light and dark flavors. Using SAP S/4HANA, the UI Theme Designer allows you to adapt the theme to your corporate identity.   
  • With SAP Fiori 2.0, the SAP Fiori launchpad is your central and role-based entry point  to access all apps.
  • With the viewport concept, the user’s desktop has been expanded to the left and to the right. While users can access the Me Area to the left, notifications on the right keep them well informed.     
  • The SAP Fiori 2.0 concept also includes new SAP Fiori elements – Overview Pages, List Reports, and Object Pages – which can be easily developed using SAP Web IDE.

System requirements for SAP Fiori

System and software requirements vary according to specific customer scenarios – please refer to the SAP Fiori Sizing Guide for details. Also, please see the SAP Fiori Product Availability Matrix for the latest information on updates and releases.

System Requirements Description
Client Device
 SAP Fiori apps and the SAP Fiori launchpad run on various smartphone, tablet, laptop, or desktop computers that supports HTML5. SAP Fiori client is the recommended native application runtime on mobile devices.
Reverse Proxy Server
 For communication between client devices and your front-end server, we recommend installing a reverse proxy server, for example, SAP Web Dispatcher. Due to standard browser limitations, using a reverse proxy server is mandatory for some SAP Fiori apps.
Front-End Server
 To host and provide SAP Fiori app content to the client, you’ll need to install and configure several UI components for your front-end server. SAP Gateway software is also required.
Back-End Server
 The back-end server hosts the SAP business applications for which the SAP Fiori apps have been created. To access the corresponding business logic and business data (including users, roles, and authorisations), services for SAP Fiori apps have to be deployed.
Database Depending on the SAP Fiori app and the product that you want to use, a SAP HANA database or any other database is required to store the corresponding  business data.

Download the software

Visit the SAP Fiori apps reference library to find the required system landscape components for individual SAP Fiori apps or to generate aggregated implementation information. To install the software components downloaded from the SAP Maintenance Planner, we recommend you use the SAP Software Update Manager (SUM). Delivered as part of SAP’s Software Logistics Toolset, the SUM is a multi-purpose tool that supports processes for performing upgrades, installing enhancement packages, applying Support Package Stacks, or updating single components on SAP NetWeaver.

We recommend using a system landscape plan from the SAP Maintenance Planner* as the basis for downloading the required front-end and back-end software components. This plan should be based on your current SAP landscape and the SAP Fiori apps you have selected in the reference library.

The SAP Maintenance Planner lets you download the required software components as part of a maintenance transaction, which also serves to document the changes to your SAP system landscape.

Alternatively, you can download the required files directly from the SAP Software Download Center and deploy them manually. This allows you to deploy only single product versions.

Set up the SAP Fiori infrastructure and SAP Fiori apps

Discover & Design your App

Build is a collaborative design tool that allows users in your SAP project teams to quickly create interactive prototypes that can be shared effortlessly with your users.The SAP Fiori Reference Apps are sample applications that help developers and designers with their development projects. Users can see real working code and live examples covering all layers end-to-end and examples of how SAP Fiori patterns and controls are being implemented in typical use cases. The SAP Fiori Reference Apps demonstrate the development and UX Design guidelines and best practices applicable to the SAP Fiori development lifecycle. This covers the entire end-to-end process from design and technology to coding principles, from OData modelling to implementation, as well as selected product standards such as performance, and extensibility.

Extend your apps

SAP Fiori apps are designed with an extensibility concept that provides high flexibility:

Custom development for SAP Fiori apps

SAP Fiori apps are based on SAPUI5, a JavaScript-based UI library from SAP which combines new qualities like openness, flexibility and high speed of innovation with established SAP strengths like enterprise readiness and standard support. Its core offers a solid foundation that simplifies development by managing many aspects of modern web app development behind the scenes. For the UI display itself, a variety of diverse UI controls specially tailored to SAP Fiori are included, ranging from basic elements to complex UX patterns, all ready to be used to style your SAP Fiori app.

Use SAP Web IDE to create custom SAP Fiori apps based on SAPUI5. This browser-based toolkit is available on SAP Cloud Platform and provides an integrated development environment. With drag-and-drop tools, wizards, and templates, you can create starter apps with only a few clicks – then use robust code editors to develop full apps easily and quickly. And if your SAP Fiori app has to support multiple languages, SAP Cloud Platform also offers the SAP Translation Hub service to add quick, accurate, and easy translation workflow capabilities.

SAP Web IDE contains a number of SAP Fiori reference apps that demonstrate development and UX Design guidelines and best practices. These reference apps cover everything from design, technology, and coding principles to OData modelling, implementation, and product standards.
