Comparing SAP Fiori and SAP Screen Personas 2016
SAP provides two paths to a delightful user experience
SAP Fiori apps and SAP Screen Personas are two ways to achieve the SAP Fiori user experience.
- The Fiori UX strategy aims to transform the transactional operational model to a role-oriented one.
- SAP Screen Personas simplifies scenarios not yet covered by Fiori applications or for your custom transactions.
Two complementary approaches to improve productivity and delight your users:

Peter, probably a minor point. I think you might want to choose a different Fiori screenshot example. Although technically it may be classed as Fiori app by SAP, the example for Material Inventory fails a number of Fiori principles (responsive, delightful, task based, etc). There are better examples out there 🙂
Peter,
I saw a '15 SAP TechEd presentation, UX109, that stated SAP GUI 7.4 is planned to support Screen Personas by end of year 2015. Can you give us a status update on this? When will Personas be supported in GUI?
Thanks,
Kenneth
Hi Kenneth,
The functionality of SAP Screen Personas in SAP GUI is documented here:
http://service.sap.com/sap/support/notes/2080071
We are continuing to enhance the SAP Screen Personas rendering in SAP GUI so it aligns with the capabilities in Web GUI.
Regards,
Peter
Thanks!
See that it is two very different use cases for SAP Screen Personas and SAP Fiori - the use scenarios is very well described by SAP on the current MOOC covering SAP Screen Personas. I highly recommend the course. Please also check out the Rapid Deployment option for SAP Screen Personas. Best regards Anders -
