fiori configuration overview
DESCRIPTION
FioriTRANSCRIPT

1
-
In this presentation we will first look at the phases of a Fiori project and then we
will focus on a high level look at where configuration takes place within the
different app types.
2
-
Notice there weve divided the project phases into two parts: Phases conducted on the platform side (blue)
Phases conducted on the application side (yellow)
You start by verifying and preparing your backend SAP system Second you conduct the installation Then configuration and security
This workshop is a technical workshop so were going to dive deep into the
technical/platform side of things. Although we will touch on some of the application
pieces such as the Launchpad and roles our focus will remain on the technical side
of the project phase.

So far in this course weve learned that SAP Fiori has introduced 2 new architecture types in addition to the transactional apps and they are analytical
apps and factsheets. Weve learned about the 3 architecture types from the architecture presentation and
should now understand what is required for installation of these app types.
The next step is moving forward to the configuration steps needed. SAP Fiori has divided configuration into 2 parts:
Configuration of the transactional apps and factsheets
Configuration of the analytical apps

-
This slide details the steps we will need to take Youll notice there are configuration steps to be taken on both the front end server
and the backend server

These architecture slides should look familiar from yesterdays session. The left
is the transactional app architecture and the right is for factsheets.
This presentation is an overview and Im hoping when were finished you understand what needs to be configured on each server and why.
In a later session we will dig deep into these configuration steps within the
systems. Step 1 needs to be configured only for Factsheets if youre just configuring
transactional apps then you would skip to step 2
Step 2 is configuring the front-end server and this is done for both transactional apps and factsheets At a high level you will need to configure
SAP NetWeaver Gateway
The central UI add-on (Launchpad configuration)
Product specific add-on (ICF (internet service framework services available on the web such as the Launchpad URL) catalog and groups of the Launchpad)
Step 3 is configuring the back-end server and this is also done for both transactional apps and factsheets Viewing from a high level
Roles, Users and Authorizations
Note: Transactional Apps can run on any DB whereas the Factsheets must run
on HANA

-
For the Analytical apps this slide details the steps we will need to take Configure the web dispatcher Specify authentication and SSO Front end server configuration Backend configuration
7
-
Step 1 web dispatcher
- Needs to be configured to specify routing rules stating which URL is
forwarded to which request
Step 2 Configuring authentication and SSO needs to be done in the HANA database
Step 3 Configuring the front end server
Configuring NetWeaver Gateway This is only relevant for 1 analytical app type which we will disucss further in another presentation
Central UI add on
Product specific add on
Step 4 (only needed for the smart business apps Enable user access to KPI data Model KPIs Configure navigational targets for KPI catalogs
8
-
Once all your backend systems are configured properly you will need to
configure the Launchpad. Setting up navigational targets Creating catalogs and tiles Assigning roles to the catalogs Providing users access
The next presentation is going to dive deep into the Launchpad. Youll learn all the functionality and got through the configuration steps
