Corporate BackgroundSAP Fiori App Types
SAP Fiori has three app types: Each distinguished by their focus and
infrastructure requirements:
 Transactional apps
 Fact sheets
 Analytical apps

Corporate BackgroundTransactional Apps
These apps let you perform transactional Tasks,
such as creating a leave request for an employee.
They represent simplified views and interaction
with existing business processes and solutions.
They run best on an SAP HANA database, but can
also be ported to other databases with acceptable
performance.

Corporate BackgroundFact Sheets
These apps display contextual
information and key facts about
central objects used in your business
operations.
From a fact sheet area (tile), you can
drill down into its details. You can
navigate from one fact sheet to its
related fact sheets.
For example, you can navigate from a
document to the related business
partner or to the master data.
Fact sheets run only on an SAP HANA
database and require an ABAP stack.

Corporate BackgroundAnalytical Apps
 These apps let you get a role-based
insight into real-time operations of
your business by collecting and
displaying key figures directly in your
browser.
 They provide real-time information on
large volume data in a simplified front
end for enterprise control. With
analytical apps, you can closely monitor
your most important key performance
indicators (KPIs) in real time and react
immediately on changes in market
conditions or operations.
 Analytical apps run on an SAP HANA
database
 and use virtual data models (VDM).

Corporate BackgroundStandard Configuration Prerequisites
• Network Architecture: You have to decide in which network zones the components of the SAP Fiori system
landscape reside.
• Certificates for Single Sign-On: For single sign-on (SSO) using logon tickets, you require an SSL server
certificate for each of the components between which you want to use SSO. Components can be, depending
on your system landscape: SAP Web Dispatcher/SAP Gateway on front-end server/ABAP back-end server.
• Browser Prerequisites: SAP Fiori apps require a web browser that can display files in HTML5 format.
• Database Requirements: Consider which databases you can use with the ABAP front-end server and the ABAP
back-end server. The requirements depend on the SAP Fiori product.
• Requirements for Back-End Components: Each SAP Fiori app requires product-specific front-end components
and product-specific back-end components, which are delivered in separate products.
• Roles and Authorizations: You have to decide how to set up the roles and authorizations for the SAP Fiori
users. This includes, for example, which user group uses which apps.
• Operating System Access for SAP HANA Database: Required if you use SAP Fiori apps that use an SAP HANA
database.

Corporate BackgroundInstallation Task
1. Install SAP Web Dispatcher as the reverse proxy.( Note 908097)
2. Set up the front-end server-Install SAP Fiori front-end server 3.0.
a. User Interface Technology.
b. SAP Gateway Foundation.
c. SAP Fiori app implementation foundation.
d. UI for Basis Applications.
e. Install the required product-specific SAP Fiori UI components.
f. Specify the default language and the logon language.
3. Install the required SAP Notes for the front-end server and the back-end server.
4. Set up the required clients.
Note: Recommended - Downloads and installing product versions use Maintenance Planner

Corporate BackgroundConfiguring Fiori User Task List
For Configuring Fiori you can use task list to execute in STC01, below are the list of task
list which can be used for Config:

Corporate BackgroundSetup of SAP Fiori List
1. Setup SAP Fiori Launchpad: You can use the following task lists to perform this step:
 SAP_FIORI_LAUNCHPAD_INIT_SETUP
 SAP_GW_FIORI_ERP_ONE_CLNT_SETUP
2. Setup SAP Fiori Embedded search:
 SAP_ESH_INITIAL_SETUP_000_CLIENT
 SAP_ESH_INITIAL_SETUP_WRK_CLIENT
 SAP_ESH_ADJUST_AFTER_COPY
 SAP_ESH_ADJUST_AFTER_CLIENT_COPY

Corporate BackgroundRoles and Authorizations
 Configuring Roles with Launchpad Start Authorizations: Users need authorization for roles
to run the SAP Fiori launchpad (as an end user) and the SAP Fiori launchpad designer (as an
administrator). When users have these roles, they can access the catalogs and groups
assigned to the roles by a role administrator. As a role administrator, you assign the
necessary authorization roles and adjust them according to your needs.
 When you configure authorization roles, it is important that you perform the steps in the
following order:
 First activate the services in SAP Gateway.
 Call each service once.
 Configure roles correctly in Role Maintenance.
 Roles for Launchpad: Copy them to your customer namespace
 SAP_UI2_ADMIN_700
 SAP_UI2_USER_700

Corporate BackgroundUser Roles
• The launchpad user must have the PFCG role SAP_UI2_USER_700 assigned. With
this role the user can run the SAP Fiori launchpad on the Personalization level and
has authorization to execute the following OData services:
 /UI2/PAGE_BUILDER_PERS
 /UI2/INTEROP
 /UI2/LAUNCHPAD
• Configuring Roles for Tile Catalogs:
 To assign a tile Catalog to the user’s role in Role
Maintenance (transaction PFCG), you add a node of type SAP Fiori Tile
Catalog to one of the user's roles.

Corporate BackgroundTroubleshooting Fiori Issues
There are 5 categories for troubleshooting. Please check from Category 1 to 5:
 Category 1: Software deployment
 Make sure you have installed prerequisite add-on components.
 Make sure you have applied the latest support package.
 Apply all mandatory notes
 Category 2: Connection settings
 Make sure the trusted RFC was set up
 Double check the system alias definition and task processing service
 Check http/https settings(1896961 - HTTP/HTTPS Configuration for SAP NetWeaver Gateway)
 Category 3: Backend configuration
 Test the scenario in ERP without Fiori
 Category 4: Search SCN and Notes
 Search SCN and notes
 Category 5A: OData side
 Identify the OData URI and check the response.
 Category 5B: UI side
 Apply additional notes for UI
 The last step: Report the issue
 SCN/Raise a SAP Incident

Corporate BackgroundSome Key Issues & Resolutions
ISSUE # 1
Webdynpro/HTML Gui(Transactional apps not working): You see the app but when you
