Motivation: SAP Screen Personas is being adopted by more and more companies around the world
Have you already heard about SAP Screen Personas?
It has been launched in 2013 by SAP and today there is a team at SAP Labs USA in Palo Alto, which is working exclusively to improve the product and add new features.
To get an idea of SAP’s speed and commitment to its evolution, the latest service pack was released in December 2017 and there are two new service packs scheduled for 2018.
If you knew Screen Personas before the release of version 3.0 and for some reason did not like it, forget it! Although the first versions of Screen Personas were already capable of doing most of the incredible things that it does today, those earlier versions were based on older technologies that had some restrictions.
Today, in version 3.0, it is a totally new product, based on current web technologies in the same way as SAPUI5 (Fiori). It even works with the SAP GUI desktop for Windows and for Java.
In December 2017, SAP finally announced support for mobile devices through SAP Screen Personas! That means now you can easily run any transaction (*) on tablets or smartphones.
(*) With the latest version of SAP Screen Personas 3.0 SP06, any transaction can run on mobile devices, however, SAP is still validating and gradually announcing official support for transactions. You can find further details on SAP Note 2557076.
See below some updated metrics on SAP Screen Personas usage across the world. These metrics were shown by the SAP Screen Personas team on the most recent monthly meeting, which took place on February 2018:
Innovation: So now Screen Personas runs ERP transactions on tablets and smartphones?
Yes!
I have been working with Screen Personas since 2013 and with SAPUI5 (Fiori) since 2015. Because of this, I have done presentations on how Screen Personas and SAPUI5 complement each other in events like SAP Forum and SAP Inside Track in Brazil and Europe. In all these events, and also in the companies I’ve worked, the first question everyone asked was always the same: does Screen Personas run on smartphones and tablets?
Until the end of 2017 the answer was no, but in December 2017, with the launch of Screen Personas 3.0 SP06, SAP finally announced a new technology called Slipstream Engine.
With the Slipstream Engine, Screen Personas “magically” gained the ability to make the SAP S / 4HANA or ECC screens become “responsive”, meaning that now transactions can be displayed and become easily usable in tablets and smartphones.
This is the current status for the SAP Screen Personas roadmap:
You can read more about the future plans for SAP Screen Personas in this Peter Spielvogel’s blog postor in pages 91-91 of the most recent SAP Fiori roadmap.
What is SAP Screen Personas capable of?
Key-users and functional consultants with no programming skills can easily simplify any S/4HANA or ECC screens, so users see only what is essential. They can also merge different tabs into a single one or create informative areas with user orientations.
Javascript developers can create scripts that bring data from one transaction into another or automatically execute transactions with the click of a button so the user does not even realize that SAP Screen Personas has performed for them a job that they used to do manually.
What are the resulting benefits?
Users become much more productive and get their jobs done in less time, more easily, faster, and without the mess that complex screens often bring.
Manual tasks now are automatically performed by the SAP Screen Personas scripts, making it quicker to finish tasks that are repeated many times a day inside companies.
Training new users become much faster and easier because the screens are much more intuitive. I am aware of scenarios where new employees no longer needed to be trained, or where training time was greatly reduced because the screens became simple and self-explanatory.
ASUG Event – Going Mobile with SAP Screen Personas
On March 14, ASUG has promoted, together with the team of Screen Personas in SAP Labs of Palo Alto, an online event that has shown the new possibilities of SAP Screen Personas 3.0 SP06, focusing on the new Slipstream Engine for mobile devices.
If you want to start learning more about the new technology, see Peter Spielvogel’s blog:
What can I expect from Personas Day event?
Personas Day is not training, but it’s like it is. If you’ve been in an SAP CodeJam event, you’ll find something very similar. See in more detail what an SAP CodeJam is.
At Personas Day you will have access to a S/4HANA environment with the latest version of SAP Screen Personas so you can use it, build something new and learn with us.
We will have two experts in SAP Screen Personas available to support you: me (Douglas Cezar) and Cristiano Hansen, from SAP Labs Latin America. We’ll show you everything you need to know so you can go back to your company and start using SAP Screen Personas.
We will show you:
- How to install SAP Screen Personas 3.0 SP06 on ECC or S / 4HANA. We will have a demo of the installation, showing how fast and easy it is.
- The administration interface of Screen Personas 3.0 SP06.
- Some of the features that a functional consultant or key-user with no programming skills can use to simplify the screens.
- For those who with programming skills, we’ll show you an example of how to use SAP Screen Personas scripts with JavaScript. You’ll see how to build powerful, advanced scenarios to automate tasks that users perform manually every day.
- The creation of screens that automatically adapt to different devices such as notebooks, tablets or smartphones.
- Using the new Slipstream Engine to run transactions on mobile devices.
- Demonstration of a scenario running in SAP GUI for Windows.
Bring your notebook, your tablet and smartphone, join us and learn with the SAP community!
