The SAP Fiori elements feature map

SAP Fiori elements provides standardized floorplans, allowing developers to create consistent applications in a very efficient manner. Using SAP Fiori elements can save you time and money during the implementation and maintenance phases of your project. As SAP Fiori elements provides a rich set of functionalities for the different floorplans, we introduced the SAP Fiori elements feature map to simplify navigating to the different features in the documentation. It can be accessed under SAP Fiori Elements Feature Map.

The SAP Fiori elements feature map provides the following:

  • An overview of the features available for each of the SAP Fiori elements floorplans, with the option to drill down to feature-level information
  • Specific links to detailed developer documentation and SAP Fiori design guidelines
  • The ability to search, filter, and sort content by floorplan and by feature
  • An entry point to drill down via interactive infographics

Working with the SAP Fiori elements feature map table

You can use the search field in the toolbar to navigate to the documentation of a feature.
