SAPGUI For Android

[Former Member]

Hi Gurus,

Is there already a SAPGUI for Android? I'm looking at acquiring a Samsung Galaxy tab. Help will be truly appreciated.

Regards,

Kennedy.

Why not use SAP Gui for HTML?

Or NWBC for HTML?

Why have a thick client which you have to install?

Because the usability of an application which was written for using mouse and keyboard, while you are on a device which lacks both, is simply "not very good" (and these are nice words).

A thick client is able to take the possible input types of the given device into account and therefore would be much better in terms of usability. There are other advantages as well like being able to cache data on the client for a smother response to user interaction. If you take a look at some controls in the SAPGUI like ALVs this is already heavily used. Otherwise every scrolling for example would need client server communication - even if you scroll to a position where you have already been. The SAPGUI for HTML "solves" this by just transferring the entire table at the beginning. Not very nice in terms of response times if you have a big table.

Hello

There is another possibility for developing Mobile UI. Using Neptune Application Designer: SAP IDE installed as an AddOn, getting the best from SAP like search helps, parameter ID, conversion exists, dictionary objects etc.

Its possible to see tutorial videos on the following link
