Peter Spielvogel from SAP presented on SAP Screen Personas and SAP Fiori. He explained that SAP Screen Personas and SAP Fiori are complementary technologies, not mutually exclusive options. SAP Screen Personas can be used to simplify and improve the user experience of existing SAP GUI screens and transactions where SAP Fiori coverage does not yet exist. SAP Fiori is a top-down initiative to deliver a new, role-based user experience across SAP solutions. Both can be accessed through the SAP Fiori launchpad and help transform the overall user experience with SAP applications.
