Custom Roles, Custom Apps: My Guide to Tailored Fiori Activation

Standard roles are great, but real-world users often need custom combinations. That’s where I had to build tailored catalogs and groups, and activate only the apps they actually use.

Key OSS Note:
📌 SAP Note 2947824 – SAP Fiori FCM Content Activation Task List
This note introduces SAP_FIORI_FCM_CONTENT_ACTIVATION, which supports flexible content activation for custom business roles.

Deep Dive:

• It explains how to select only the apps relevant to your custom role.
• I used /UI2/CHIP to manage tiles and /UI2/FLPCM_CONF to configure Launchpad pages.
• The note also covers how to handle missing services and troubleshoot catalog mismatches.

My Takeaway:
This OSS Note gave me control over the Fiori experience. Instead of overwhelming users with unnecessary apps, I delivered exactly what they needed.
