Difference between SAP UI add-on and SAP Fiori Apps for SRM

[Former Member]

Hello experts,

I was wondering what is the difference between SAP UI add-on and SAP Fiori Apps for SRM ?

Both "packages" are using the same technology (sapui5) and I believe both are willing to provide users a better UX.

Is it relevant to study both of these package ? What is the value added by SAP UI add-on as Fiori seems to be the path followed by SAP (maybe something specific that I've missed) ?

Thanks for enlightening me.

Regards

Hello ,

       Specifically SRM UI add-on is simply a Add-on solution to have Shopping cart in new UI Experience for desktop. These were conceptualized as part of SRM Suite of applications.

       Fiori Apps (http://help.sap.com/fiori_bs2013/helpdata/en/56/4b615240e1745fe10000000a441470/content.htm?current_t...)

      These are apps in alignment SAP Fiori suite( A newer UX ) and targeted also for mobile and desktop . These follow the SAP suite of Fiori .

Also some of backend services are from former app is reused so the former add-on is a pre-requisite for the Fiori Apps.

Thanks and Regards,
