Purpose
The UI theme designer is SAP's browser-based tool for cross-theming scenarios. It is a single tool for theming and
branding SAP's key user interfaces. The user can thus stay in one environment and brand/theme across multiple
UI frameworks. Use it to easily build your corporate identity themes by modifying one of the theme templates
provided by SAP.
The purpose of this document is to describe the general steps required to access the Theme Designer and use its
functionalities. You can, for example, change the color scheme (background and text colors) or add your
company’s logo.
The document covers the customizing of themes in the cloud (using the SAP Fiori, Demo Cloud Edition) and in an
on-premise environment.

When implementing and configuring this rapid-deployment solution in a multi-tier customer landscape, the
applied configuration settings need to be transported from one system landscape to the next (that is, from a
development landscape to a quality landscape and to a productive landscape in case of a 3 tier landscape
environment).
This section describes additional aspects which need to be taken into consideration while configuring SAP Fiori in
a multi-tier landscape. As a prerequisite, the ABAP transport system between the systems needs to be configured
properly.
Configuration settings that can be transported using the APAB transportation mechanisms and where no
additional or subsequent steps are required are not mentioned in the following list.
Procedure
When using the UI Theme Designer and creating your own themes, the ABAP transport mechanism can be used.
