NWBC at SAP TechEd && d-code 2014 – UPDATED, 5th November, 2014

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.

Again, ask anything you like! Last year, we covered:

My colleague Johannes Wasserfall, UX Expert from the Suite, will also be present at the networking session.
