SAP Fiori 2.0 now available for SAP Business Suite

SAP Fiori 2.0 is the next significant step in our evolution of the user experience for business applications. In addition to being available for SAP S/4HANA, SAP Fiori 2.0 is now also available for the SAP Business Suite. The award-winning SAP Fiori 2.0 takes the Fiori design concept to the next level and includes a delightful new visual theme, Belize.

If you are already an SAP Business Suite customer using SAP Fiori, you can get SAP Fiori 2.0 by upgrading your Front-End Server to version 3.0. Note that if you have built custom apps or defined custom themes, there are some implications which you need to be aware of and some additional activities to plan for prior to upgrading.

To give you full insight and clear guidance for the introduction of SAP Fiori 2.0, SAP has created the SAP Fiori 2.0 welcome package; your entry point for this, helping you find out more about SAP Fiori 2.0 for the SAP Business Suite and for SAP S/4HANA, its benefits and also the implications if you upgrade, is this overview document: SAP Fiori 2.0 – What you need to know.

      The SAP Screen Personas gallery has Fiori 2.0-compliant designs, so you can simplify your classic screens (including custom transactions) with pre-built themes, templates, icon collections, and quick styles.

      Hi!
      Is the SAP menu / User menu, in the app catalog, supported for SAP Business Suite as well? and the app finder?
      is there a way to support the notification area by any API or adaptation?
      Thanks!
      Leonardo.

      Hi Thomas,

      Clearly a significant element of Fiori 2.0 is the introduction of the Belize theme to unify the look-and-feel of older apps and transactions.

      However as I understand it, Belize only works with S/4 HANA, and there is nothing on the roadmap to make Belize available with Business Suite - can you confirm?

      thanks, Roger

      I just saw Frank Krause has already answered my question in his June 30th reply to a comment here:

      https://blogs.sap.com/2017/05/31/sap-gui-for-windows-7.60-will-not-feature-classic-theme-and-enjoy-theme/

      'we do not plan to support Belize on older SAP products for multiple reasons:

      • Belize introduces new features only supported with a new SAP_BASIS release (the “FIORI_USAGE”). These features cannot be downported and without them Belize does not make much sense.
      • Belize introduces much more fundamental changes than the previous themes. One big aspect is the screen metrics, but there are others. Therefore we recommend to check and adopt applications before running them with Belize. At SAP we did this intensively for the S/4HANA applications and we modified a number of them.  These changes are only available for S/4HANA.'
