Yes, slowly but surely, TechEd is approaching. Last year was brilliant, so I am genuinely looking forward to this year’s big do.
Since NWBC 5.0 had not yet been released when we submitted the proposals, I couldn’t realistically offer a hands-on, but I will try to put as much useful info into the lecture. Also, it’s not just slides; I want to show as much as possible by demo or video. So here’s what’s on offer:
UX106 What’s New in NWBC
I will be focussing on:
– NWBC 5.0 + SAP GUI 7.40 – What does our long-promised “much closer integration” mean in practice? How does it improve experience for both admins and end users? I hope to blog about this, as soon as we go live (planned for early Q4, 2014) – but I think you will really see the power of this in the demo
– NWBC plus Fiori – how do they fit together – now and in the near future – also including a video
PLEASE NOTE: Since we only have an hour, I will not be covering the general introduction stuff – that will be in the Networking sessions (see below)
Berlin, November 11-13
Wednesday, 12:15-13:15
L6, Hall 7.1 – New York 3
Speaker: Julie Plummer, SAP SE
NEW: EXP17822 Expert Networking Session: Ask Anything About NWBC
Ask anything! In this session, we will focus on the basics:
– what is NWBC, what are the main use cases?
– NWBC + SAP GUI – how do they work together, in general and NWBC 5.0 + SAP GUI 7.40?
– NWBC vs SAP GUI vs Portal – when to use what?
NOTE: My colleague Ralph Resech from the SAP GUI team will be joining me.

Expert Lounge EL 4.1, Hall 4.2
EXP 17636 Expert Networking Session: NWBC and the Business Suite (Berlin only)
Again, ask anything you like! Last year, we covered:
– differences between NWBC and SAP GUI / Portal (the answer to which is completely different)
– role management?
– diverse questions regarding Business Suite applications – side panels, POWLs, etc etc
My colleague Johannes Wasserfall, UX Expert from the Suite, will also be present at the networking session.
Thursday, 11-11:30 AM
Expert Lounge EL 4.2, Hall 4.2

Hope to see some of you in November !
Will be adding those to my agenda for sure! Thanks Julie.
Post authorThanks Simon, good to know.
Which reminds me, Iwanted to add some other, related sessions. Oops.
Will do so at once.
Best Julie.
Post authorHi everyone, Just received a Tweet about this from Fred Verheul:
“<< curious about role of
#NWBC in future”Lots of you are curious about this. I can’t say any more at present.
At present, I can only say : There continues to be a role for the Business Client.
I hope to say more when NWBC 5.0 is released (*provisionally* October 2014 – subject to change). I hope to say a good bit more in Teched itself – particularly on how the NWBC strategy and Fiori strategy fit together. Sorry, I can’t be more detailed yet – all I can say is, we’re working on this.
So is it the Business Client from now on? Meaning are you dropping the NetWeaver word from the product name?
Post authorNo, sorry to mislead – that was just an abbreviation,
I don’t foresee us changing the name for the foreseeable.
BEst wishes, Julie
Post authorHi everyone,
I received a query by Twitter from Maik Schmidt : Will there be live streaming for this session? The answer is no, there will be no live stream; you have to be present at Teched to hear this session.
In previous years, I have been asked to make a recording, which was then included in Teched Online, but this year, I haven’t made a recording, so I assume NWBC will not be part of Teched Online either. (AFAIK, Teched Online is only available to registered attendees – it is to let attendees catch up on missed sessions, not a substitute for being there, but I may be wrong).
Maik – sorry it took so lon; I did not get a reply from the organizers.
Best wishes
Julie R Plummer.
