All you need to know about Branding A SuccessFactors Instance for clients

Overview

Branding in SAP SuccessFactors Instances for clients:

Branding for customers is important to transform the appearance of SuccessFactors products so that they meet the visual design standards that are part of their company’s brand requirements

SAP SuccessFactors provides with a set of prebuilt themes that can be used. If the client needs more specific needs, it needs to be built from scratch.

This document will guide you with the all the platform parameters that can be customized based on the requirements.

Themeing

Theming allows Admins to apply custom or pre-selected visual design styles to the SuccessFactors User Interface (UI). Admins can create a theme by changing selected page attributes, such as background and text color. A theme can be as simple as a color shift in the background of the interface or it can be very complex. For example, Admins can include tiled images (patterns that create the look of textures).
