SAP Fiori training course

Lesson 1 • Fiori Launchpad Overview

Introduces the Fiori Launchpad as the central entry point for all Fiori apps. Students identify tiles, groups, and navigation patterns used throughout the course.

Lesson 2 • What Is SAP Fiori

Defines SAP Fiori as a UX design system built on five core principles. Anchors the chapter by establishing why Fiori replaced traditional SAP GUI screens.

Lesson 3 • Fiori Technical Architecture

Explains the three-tier architecture: front-end SAPUI5, OData services, and SAP back-end systems. Provides the technical context needed for all subsequent configuration topics.

Lesson 1 • Spaces and Pages Configuration

Explains the modern Spaces and Pages model that replaces classic groups in newer Fiori releases. Students configure structured layouts for different user personas.

Lesson 2 • Role-Based Access Configuration

Covers assigning catalogues and groups to SAP roles to control app visibility. Students connect Fiori authorisation concepts to back-end role management.

Lesson 3 • Target Mappings and Navigation

Defines target mappings as the mechanism linking tiles to app URLs and intent-based navigation. Students create and validate target mappings for custom and standard apps.

Lesson 4 • Launchpad Designer Fundamentals

Introduces the Launchpad Designer tool used to create and manage catalogues and groups. Establishes the configuration workflow that underpins all role-based access setup.

Lesson 1 • Routing and Navigation in SAPUI5

Explains the SAPUI5 router for managing multi-view navigation within a single app. Students configure routes and patterns to enable deep linking.

Lesson 2 • SAPUI5 Framework Essentials

Introduces SAPUI5 as an MVC-based JavaScript framework with a rich control library. Establishes the coding foundation required for Fiori app development and extension.

Lesson 3 • Debugging and Testing SAPUI5 Apps

Introduces browser developer tools, the SAPUI5 diagnostics dialog, and QUnit testing. Students diagnose common runtime errors and validate control behaviour.

Lesson 4 • SAPUI5 Controls and Layouts

Surveys commonly used UI controls such as tables, forms, and smart controls. Students select and configure controls appropriate for Fiori UX patterns.

Lesson 1 • Testing and Monitoring OData Services

Uses the Gateway Client and external REST tools to validate service responses. Students interpret metadata documents and troubleshoot common service errors.

Lesson 2 • SAP Gateway Service Builder

Covers the Service Builder (SEGW) transaction for defining and generating OData services. Students create a complete service definition including entity types and function imports.

Lesson 3 • Annotations and Smart Templates

Introduces OData annotations that drive smart template apps without custom JavaScript. Students apply UI and vocabulary annotations to auto-generate Fiori list reports.

Lesson 4 • Implementing OData CRUD Operations

Guides implementation of Create, Read, Update, and Delete methods in ABAP DPC classes. Students write and test each operation against a live Gateway service.

Lesson 1 • List Report and Object Page Pattern

Deep-dives into the most common Fiori floor plan combination for master-detail scenarios. Students configure advanced features including draft handling and side effects.

Lesson 2 • Worklist and Analytical List Page

Covers the worklist floor plan for task-based apps and the analytical list page for KPI-driven views. Students implement both patterns against the same OData service.

Lesson 3 • Overview Page Floor Plan

Builds an overview page with multiple cards displaying aggregated business data. Students configure stack, list, table, and KPI card types.

Lesson 4 • Fiori Elements Framework Overview

Explains how Fiori Elements generates UI from OData annotations without custom view code. Positions the framework relative to freestyle SAPUI5 development covered earlier.

Lesson 1 • Scaffolding Fiori Apps with Yeoman

Uses the Fiori application generator to scaffold standard Fiori floor plan templates. Students generate a list report and object page app from an OData service.

Lesson 2 • SAP Business Application Studio Setup

Covers provisioning a dev space, configuring system destinations, and navigating the BAS IDE. Establishes the development environment used throughout all coding exercises.

Lesson 3 • Previewing and Deploying Fiori Apps

Covers local preview, mock server usage, and deployment to SAP BTP or ABAP repository. Students deploy a completed app and verify it in the Fiori Launchpad.

Lesson 4 • Developing the List Report Floor Plan

Customises the list report floor plan using annotations and manifest settings. Students configure filter bars, columns, and actions for a business scenario.

Lesson 1 • Single Sign-On and Identity Management

Explains SAML 2.0, OAuth 2.0, and principal propagation for Fiori SSO scenarios. Students configure trust between Fiori front end and back-end systems.

Lesson 2 • Fiori Authorisation Concepts

Maps Fiori app access to SAP authorisation objects, roles, and profiles. Establishes the security model that governs all configuration and deployment decisions.

Lesson 3 • Security Audit and Compliance Checks

Uses SAP security audit logs and Fiori-specific checks to identify vulnerabilities. Students run an end-to-end security review of a deployed Fiori landscape.

Lesson 4 • OData Service Authorisation

Covers service-level authorisation checks in Gateway and ABAP DPC classes. Students implement field-level and operation-level access controls in OData services.

Lesson 1 • Front-End Performance Optimisation

Covers component preloading, lazy loading, and bundle optimisation for SAPUI5 apps. Students apply techniques that reduce initial load time measurably.

Lesson 2 • Fiori Monitoring with SAP Solution Manager

Configures end-user experience monitoring and alerting using SAP Solution Manager. Students set up dashboards that track Fiori app health in production.

Lesson 3 • Continuous Improvement and Capacity Planning

Applies iterative performance review cycles and capacity planning for growing Fiori usage. Students produce a performance improvement plan for a sample landscape.

Lesson 4 • Performance Baseline and Measurement

Establishes key performance metrics for Fiori apps including load time and OData response time. Students use browser tools and SAP monitoring to capture baseline data.
