SAP Fiori is considered the pioneer of modern and appealing user interface designs. We see immense benefits for SAP customers when it comes to implementing a standard solution on the SAP Business Technology Platform (SAP BTP).<\/strong> The sovanta UX designers Daniel Grab und Alexander Lenhart work daily with SAP Fiori in customer projects, collectively examining the opportunities presented by the Fiori standard, as well as potential obstacles on the path to an optimal User Experience (UX).<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

SAP Fiori as a common language for smooth development processes<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

It’s no secret: The success of a digital product depends on the successful collaboration between development, design, and business. SAP Fiori serves as a common denominator among these various experts, promoting seamless and transparent cooperation. The use of SAP Fiori apps enables a full focus on the future user with all their wishes and requirements for a digital product, following the Human Centered Design Approach. And we are convinced: Only this way solutions can be successfully developed together with a good User Experience.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n

In this context, the SAP Fiori design system<\/a> plays a crucial role. SAP Fiori not only provides a quick visualization of a business case but also allows for rapid visual iteration of process steps for the UX designer. The development process benefits from ready-to-use code assets provided by SAP Fiori. It becomes clear quickly: the more we rely on the Fiori standard as our common language, the faster the product can hit the market and continuously improve. In the end, the user is the winner because they not only receive fitting solutions more quickly but also have a good User Experience when working with the system.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

How to achieve optimal UX in the SAP Fiori Standard?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

To develop processes in the SAP Fiori standard as effectively as possible, our goal is to keep them as simple as can be. We aim not only to achieve an efficient User Experience but also to accelerate the users’ goal attainment and task fulfillment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This can be the case when existing controls or UX patterns can no longer adequately represent business logic, or when SAP does not provide a default solution for specific business logic. Fiori is flexible enough to enable customized solutions for every business process. Various criteria are considered to decide whether custom adjustments are worthwhile, including:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
