S/4 HANA is set to introduce new integration with Microsoft Teams, enhancing collaboration and communication within the business environment.
System administrators can enable the integration with Microsoft Teams to allow their users to use the Share: Microsoft Teams option.
Collaborate and quickly resolve issues, if necessary, simply by using Microsoft Teams As Chat to share a direct link with co-workers. You can provide them with access to a specific state of an SAP Fiori application, for example, so they can easily process any requests you have or tasks that come up.
Work efficiently with a group of co-workers on specific content that you share in the form of a Microsoft Teams tab. Use the Microsoft Teams environment to work on the same context of an SAP Fiori application and use the tab conversation option in parallel to share ideas, discuss, and collaborate.
