SAP Fiori Apps for ERP Baseline – Application PS

Purpose of SAP Fiori
SAP Fiori is a collection of apps that represent the new SAP user experience. SAP Fiori apps
have a consistent design language and make use of a common technical infrastructure. They
provide a consistent end-to-end user experience and can be used across all device types without
creating additional implementation effort.
Organized by user role, the SAP Fiori launchpad is the central entry hub to all Fiori apps where
users access apps via tiles. The launchpad has services for navigation, personalization, single
sign-on, and search. The launchpad and the tiles are flexible and can be adapted to your needs.
You can use the search in the SAP Fiori launchpad to perform a cross-entity search through core
SAP Business Suite applications. The search uses the SAP NetWeaver Embedded Search
technology on a SAP HANA database. New SAP HANA-enabled search models are delivered for
core business objects.
The Fiori apps focus on critical and common activities and are designed around how people work:

Role-based: Fiori apps decompose complex applications into a task-based experience with
one central entry point for each user.

Responsive: Fiori apps adapt to all sizes, devices, versions, and channels to provide a
common user experience across all channels.

Simple: Fiori apps follow the 1-1-3 experience (1 user, 1 scenario, 3 screens). They know and
provide the right context and meaningful data integration.

Coherent user experience with apps that speak the same design language. This implies
coherence for common activities as well as coherence for your brand.

Instant value with a low barrier to adoption, enabling customers to adapt and users to
personalize.

Interactive on desktop, tablet, and mobile platforms
All UIs are built using state-of-the-art technology such as HTML5 and SAP UI5 mobile. Fiori apps
allow you to access the most recent version of your back-end data via OData services. Through
previously defined roles and authorizations, you can specify which apps and which data a user is
allowed to access.
The purpose of this document is to give the user all necessary information around the SAP Fiori
apps for PS to be able to run them on top of the SAP Best Practices PS processes.
The packages listed below are prerequisites for the configuration described in this
guide.
You will find references to the documentation belonging to these packages in the
corresponding chapters of this document:

Overview Matrix for PS Fiori Apps
The following matrix shows the existing Fiori roles available within the PS application and the
assigned Fiori apps. The Fiori apps can be used within the mentioned baseline processes and
can replace an existing process step. It is important to understand that Fiori apps can replace
only single process steps and not a complete process. In other cases, Fiori apps offer
functionality to enhance existing processes.

4.1.4 WBS Element Cost Variance
4.1.4.1 Description
This analytical app displays the Key Performance Indicator (KPI) WBS Element Cost Variance.
The cost variance is displayed when the total actual costs exceeds the total planned costs of a
WBS element. You can also check the percentage of the total planned cost that is consumed by
the WBS element.
4.1.4.2 Key Features

Enables you to drill-down to the specific details of a WBS element.

Displays the partial project hierarchy structure from the selected WBS element up to the
project definition.

Enables you to view charts that display the deviation between the actual (including
commitment costs) and planned costs.
The planned and actual (including commitment) cost is determined as on the
current date based on the CO version provided. For every fiscal year, only (0112) periods are used for calculating the corresponding revenue until the current
date.
You can view individual cost items through the line chart display. You can additionally sort the
line items based on controlling area value, posting date or cost element. For the line charts,
the cumulated costs are displayed for the current and previous fiscal year.

You can group the WBS elements based on the project it belongs to or the percentage of cost
exceeded.

You can filter the WBS elements based on any of the following options:
o
Exceeded percentage of cost
o
Project
o
WBS Element

You can navigate to related transactional apps and fact sheets.

Integration with the SAP Jam collaboration platform.

4.1.4.3 Business Purpose of SAP Smart Business WBS
Element Cost Variance
This app can be seen as an enhancement of our existing baseline scope items; a project
manager for example can quickly get an overview about the cost variance of his projects,
avoiding critical situations (when the total actual costs exceeds the total planned costs)
You may consider this app for the following scope items:

Project with Fixed Price and T&M Billing (196)

Internal Projects (197)

Internal Product Development (210)

SAP Best Practices for Chemicals: Overhaul Management (886) and Investment
Management in Plant Maintenance (932)

SAP Best Practices for Discrete Manufacturing: Engineer-to-Order (ETO) – Project Assembly
