If you are talking Android tablet, then the HTMLgui works surprisingly well. I use it occasionally on my 7" Nexus 7 to access our ERP6 system. A colleague uses it on a 10" iPad. Add a bluetooth keyboard and it might work quite well for regular light use.

If you mean a phone-sized device, then there isn't really the screen real-estate. That's when you need mobile-specific apps, I would say.

You need to talk to your Basis guys to get the URL for HTMLgui, and to make sure it is configured on the servers you want to access. There's nothing you need to install on the tablet - just use the native browser (chrome on an Android tablet).

Hello Steve,

I tried using the native browser as well as Google Chrome to access SAPGUI for HTML. It gives error "Browser not supported". I tried in Firefox and I am able to logon and the browser displays the main SAP screen. However nothing gets excuted after that. I am not able press any of the button on the scrren. Is there any setting I need to do on table or on server? I am using android tablet

Regards

What system are you trying to connect to? It sounds like the NetWeaver version might be too old. Do you know what version is running on the SAP system? Look for the version of the SAP_BASIS component. I'm running ERP6 on NetWeaver 7.02 and the Chrome browser on my Android tablet (running Android 4.2) works fine.

Chrome support is relatively new - it might be that your backend system is just too old?

I am using SAP ECC 6.0 with SAP NetWeaver 7.0. I am on android version 4.0.3. In fact I checked this on mylaptop which is running windows 7. Still it says that 'Google Chrome browser is not supported'.

Then I think you need a newer NetWeaver. However, there might be a work-around. Have a read of this blog: Much of it is about portal use with Chrome, but point 4 is about ITS transactions, which includes the webgui. Try making the changes suggested there and see if that gets you going.

Thanks Steve for your guidance. I tried the suggestions given in the link, but still I am not able to access it. I am able to gain acccess SAP system using firefox beta application, but the screen keeps flickering. SAP replied to my OSS message that 'this is supported only from EHP 2.0 onwards'. Looks like I have to go for EHP upgrade.
