Run your own custom Fiori client with your company logo and the options you need.
When executing our own Launchpad Fiori and the corresponding applications on a mobile device, we have different options:
1. Access our launchpad through a web browser. Access to the launchpad is still an executable URL from any browser, therefore this option would be the fastest to implement. At this point we would have to take into account the sharing of the devices, we would need to have the URL stored in a bookmark or generate a direct access to that URL, and also, depending on the characteristics of the client and his project, the security to keep in mind that you can open tabs and forget to close them, have several tabs open with outdated data, etc. However, without any doubt, the main problem is that from a browser we cannot use the native features of our device, such as, among others:
- Camera access
- Contacts
- Calendar
- Voice memo recording
- Geolocation
2. Make use of the free standard SAP Fiori Client client downloadable from any App Store. This option is also fast, we simply download the client from our App Store, configure it and start using it. For this method, depending on what type of users use the device, it will be necessary to have a preset configuration (through an MDM for example) or to have a technical support team that can configure the app if a problem arises. Another point to keep in mind is that only a single environment is configurable. In addition, the logo of the application is owned by SAP and the operation and options that the client brings are not configurable. In this case, the client is already preconfigured with access to different Cordova plugins that allow us to make use of the native features of our device, although we have no possibility to expand this list.

3.- Implement your own Fiori client. Starting from the standard client and its characteristics, we can implement our own Fiori client in which, in addition to having the native features that SAP offers, we can include new ones, such as the use of the system options section of our device. In addition, we can freely configure the client to offer a totally corporate vision, change the logo, loading screens … We can also edit the options that the standard client offers, such as the screens when starting the app, access to configuration options, etc, something very useful when using shared devices, or including the key options according to our own interests, access to different environments, for example, a very useful feature for the technical team, since it allows testing in different systems (development, quality , production …) without the need to reset the entire application.
It is at this last point where, from Resulto Consultoría, we can help you. We take care of implementing your new corporate client and changing the aspects you need in relation to the functionality offered by the standard client. Configure different environments from the application options, eliminate unnecessary options, allow you to include Username and Password by default in private devices, include new native features through new Cordova plugins … All this is possible thanks to the implementation of a customized client and Unique for each client.
