1. How I Set Up SAP Fiori
I successfully deployed SAP Fiori by following a structured approach that covered both the front-end and back-end systems. I began by confirming that all prerequisites were met—such as the correct SAP NetWeaver version, Gateway services, and UI components. Using the SAP Maintenance Planner, I downloaded the necessary packages and ensured all dependencies were addressed.
Next, I installed the SAP Fiori Front-End Server and configured the SAP Web Dispatcher to manage traffic securely. I added the relevant UI components based on the business modules I needed—like ERP or CRM—and activated the required OData services. Finally, I set up the Fiori Launchpad, which now serves as the central access point for all my Fiori applications.
📦 2. Software Components I Installed
To get SAP Fiori running smoothly, I installed several key software elements:
On the front-end, I added SAP_UI and SAP_GWFND to support the user interface and data services. I also configured the SAP Web Dispatcher to handle incoming requests.
On the back-end, I included add-ons for ERP, CRM, and other business suites, depending on the apps I planned to use.
I ensured the system was running on a compatible SAP NetWeaver ABAP stack and added KPI Modeler for analytical apps.
All installations were done using SAP’s recommended tools like the Maintenance Planner and Software Update Manager, which helped streamline the process and avoid manual errors.
📑 3. SAP Notes That Guided Me
Throughout the setup, I relied on several SAP Notes to ensure everything was configured correctly and up to date:

These notes were essential for avoiding common pitfalls and aligning my setup with SAP’s best practices.
🌐 4. Where I Use SAP Fiori
After installation, I began using SAP Fiori across different departments to improve workflows and user experience:
In finance, I enabled apps for invoice approvals and expense tracking.
In procurement, I used apps to monitor supplier performance and delivery timelines.
In HR, I rolled out tools for onboarding, leave requests, and performance reviews.
For customer service, I built a portal where users could track orders and submit inquiries.
I also integrated Fiori with external platforms, allowing users to access multiple systems through a single interface.
These implementations made processes more efficient and user-friendly, especially on mobile devices.
