4. BUSINESS NEEDS

5. Industry Challenges
Goods In/out not tracked to the level of Batch/Pack/Serial Numbers hence
leading to inefficient inventory management.
Pack/Serial level details of goods lying in stock or sent out if not available
correctly causes potential business risk.
Effort and time consumed in transactions high.
In case of batch/pack/serial level controlled stock, lack of barcode
automations makes data entry complex and error prone.
Incorrect movement of goods due to human reading errors.
Transaction execution and system data entry at different times leading to
mistakes and time lags.
Operational and legal inefficacies caused by inaccurate data with respect
physical.

6. FIORI Vs Third Party Solutions
S.N. SAP FIORI Based Solution Third Party Solution
1 Direct read/write from SAP ERP
Database
Mostly data transfer based.
2 No data inconsistency Occasional data inconstancy
3 Realtime transactions Time lag in transactions
4 Transactions completed in App
actually completed the ERP
transactions
Transactions completed in app may not be
processed in ERP due to change in data
situation during the time lag.
5 No need of maintenance of any other
database/systems
Needs maintenance another
server/database
6 Unlimited automations possible with
data processing in same system.
Automations and controls limited by amount
and quality of data transmitted to other
system.
7 Additional/changes to app easier as
does not require any data transfer.
Change may be time consuming as only
limited data is transmitted to third party
system.
8 Barcode Labels printed from SAP only User need go to different system for labels.

7. Do You know?
Standard FIORI Apps are
available for SAP ECC6.0
and SAP S/4HANA both.
SAP ECC6.0 – Only Few
Standard FIORI Apps
available
Custom FIORI Applications
can be created in both
versions.
FIORI Applications can call
SAP and non SAP both APIs.
No other licenses required
beyond Professional/
Functional users
FIORI Applications can use
Device Features like
Camera, Location, OCR,
Scanning etc.
FIORI Applications will be
work on any device
Android, iOS or Windows.
Handheld devices have
Barcode scanning features
and in other cases device
camera can be used as
Barcode scanner.
FIORI can also handle OCR
needs by reading character
from pics.

Qty etc.
Object Info: Production Order, Purchase

Input of key data
ACTION

ACTION-1 ACTION-2 ACTION -3
• The FIORI based UI will be created with
layout, data capture, data display, data
inputs and action depending on the
requirement of use case.
• Device camera will be used by
application to read Bar Code/QR Code
on the packets/racks or anything which
we need to be read.
•The developed application to pull
required information from SAP and show
to users so that one can take need
actions and trigger processing SAP
Application in back end.
•Business rule based defaults will be
built in to the program which obviates
need too many data to be feed into
FIORI application for action to happen.

Application
(ABAP/CDS)
Application
(ABAP/CDS)
SAP ECC6.0 or S/4HANA Database
The UI5 Based applications do following;
• Call SAP Odata Service for any
view/update
• Use device camera and other features
like notifications, location to provide
right business solutions.
• Use Camera as Bar Code scanner and
get captured data processed in SAP
using Odata services.
• Can integrate with third party APIs to
provide business solutions correlating
with third party apps.
• These app can also integrate with APIs
providing machine data.

13. IT Infra Needs
•The existing S/4HANA Database and Server only are used.
•No additional servers needed in case FIORI/Gateway servers exists.
•Need a small servers for cloud connector( even router/solution manager servers can be
used for the purpose).
Database and
Servers
•All the locations in shop floor where Handheld Device is to be over LAN need to have Wi Fi
Connectivity.
•Applications needed to be used over internet will need public IP for certain ports on
Gateway Server.
Networking
•All these applications are Device/OS agnostic and they run on any device.
•Hence even normal Android/iOS Devices ( Mobiles/Tablets) can be used also.
•In case of Rugged and High volume scenarios like warehouse one can use Handheld
Devices from companies like Zebra/Honeywell etc.
End User Devices
•One may needs Labe Printers based on size and quality of label to be printed.
