| Configuration Overview The configuration of SAP Fiori apps requires steps on a front-end Server (FES) and on one or multiple connected SAP Business Suite back-end systems. On the front-end server resides an SAP NetWeaver Gateway system with the SAP NetWeaver UI Add-On. On the back-end servers, the SAP ERP or SAP CRM systems are installed, for example. The SAP NetWeaverNetWeaver UI Add-On includes the SAP Fiori LaunchpadLaunchpad designer, which is the administration tool to configure the content for the SAP Fiori LaunchpadLaunchpad. The SAP Fiori Launchpad is the entry point for end users. They access the Launchpad and the Launchpad designer from a Web browser via secure requests to the FES. To enable these requests, UI5 applications and their related OData services need to be activated in SAP NetWeaver Gateway on FES. In addition, users need start authorizations for the services on the front-end and authorizations for related functions on the back-end. The majority of configuration steps are activation steps (for applications and services) and authorization steps on both the front-end server and in back-end systems. 3 http://help.sap.com/fiori System Landscape Required for SAP Fiori 4 http://help.sap.com Technology SAP Gateway SAP NetWeaver Gateway 2.0 Configuration and Deployment Information Basic Configuration Settings Introduction Configuring transactional SAP Fiori Apps - Quick Guide 7 Chapter 2 describes the initial configuration of the SAP Fiori Launchpad and of the SAP Fiori Launchpad designer: Activation of the ICF services of the SAP Fiori Launchpad to create the HTTP request handlers for the Launchpad URLs Activation of the OData services for the SAP NetWeaver UI Add-On Creation of a PFCG role for administrators with authorizations for the SAP Fiori Launchpad designer Creation of a PFCG role for end users with authorizations for the SAP Fiori Launchpad At the end of these one-time activities you can launch the SAP Fiori Launchpad designer and the SAP Fiori Launchpad. Chapter 3 describes how to configure individual SAP Fiori apps using the example of the My Leave Requests app and the Customer fact sheet Each app is included in a business catalog of apps available for a sample business role, in our example: the role for the HCM employee or for the fields representative, respectively. On the front-end Server (FES) you have to do the following: Activate the OData services and ICF nodes for the SAP UI5 applications in SAP NetWeaver Gateway. This enables the corresponding HTTP request handlers. Create a PFCG role that provides access to the relevant catalog in the SAP Fiori Launchpad. In our example, we copy the sample business role delivered by SAP. Add start authorizations for the required OData service to the business role (we provide an unsecure shortcut: use wildcard authorization). Assign the role to a user, which has to have the same user name as in the back-end system Adapt the business catalog to your needs in the SAP Fiori Launchpad designer SAP Fiori fact sheets are based on search models, and the results list of SAP Fiori search is the main entry point to fact sheets. For fact sheets, you must therefore create search connectors on the back-end server. In addition, users for both, fact sheets and transactional apps, must be assigned the authorizations required in the back-end to be able to run the apps. You have to do the following: Assign the RFC Authorization to the user to allow remote access from the front-end server to the back-end server Assign and generate the authorizations to call and perform the OData services on the back-end Introduction Configuring transactional SAP Fiori Apps - Quick Guide 8 Download 1 Mb.
