SAP Fiori is a design system that empowers you to create business applications for an enormous variety of different uses.
However, Fiori is the name of the overall feature set for SAP. There are also dozens of smaller, additional features underneath the title of “Fiori.”
One of those features is Launchpad.
Launchpad is a shell that allows you to host the application you have in SAP. It acts as an "entry point" for mobile devices and desktops, allowing SAP users with the right permission to access the application they need for their daily work.
But why would you like to use Launchpad? What is the advantage?
We will take a look at the top 5 advantages of using SAP Fiori Launchpad for your business.
1. Personalization
Personalization is the process of allowing someone to customize an interface to their exact liking.
Personalization is one of the most demanding features of any software in the world today, allowing business and individual employees to create their views on their work that best suits their needs and productivity.
In Launchpad, personalization translates so that someone organizes the dashboard of their application in whatever way they want. It also allows them to choose and choose the most frequently used applications, making them the most striking, and accessing them easier.
personalization translates to ease of use on an employee-by-employee basis. This makes it exceptionally valuable to enterprise-level businesses where large departments need access to the same general suite of applications, but each employee may use those applications for different needs.
2. Spaces
In addition to personalization, "spaces" Launchpad allows groups (such as individual departments) to adjust their dashboard with a group-by-group base.
This means that the marketing team, sales team, IT team, etc. All can have a dashboard made before with the important things needed by every employee in the department.
Then, an individual employee can personalize their dashboard further, tweaking it to be perfect for their day-to-day roles.
Spaces also make it easy for a company to hire and onboard a new employee with the base amount of information they need to start working. Once an employee logs in, they enter their department “Space” and see what’s available to them.
3. Embedded Support
In addition to customization, Launchpad is also equipped with embedded support options.
This is most important because SAP is extensive software and includes all, it's easy for new users to feel lost or maybe even overwhelmed.
Embedded support addresses this potential by giving employees the chance to reach out to a support specialist, find support documents, and acquire other forms of help as they work in SAP.
With embedded support, there’s no need to send a separate email or fill out a long, complicated support ticket.
Instead, employees can get their answers and continue their days.
4. Notification
Notifications are a part of almost every software suite today, but they’re exceptionally important for Launchpad.
This is because Launchpad is designed to be a self-contained experience for employees, meaning they can do a large portion (or all) of their daily work from their interface.
Notification allows this by eliminating the need to go back and forth in other communication media, such as email or telephone.
Instead of making independent calls or outreach, employees can see important messages and updates for them when they work in their interface.
5. Search (Enterprise Only)
Finally, one of the biggest advantages of SAP Launchpad is the search function.
While only available in SAP Enterprise, the search function empowers employees to find information on all applications and business objects.
This gives employees an enormous range of potential opportunities when they need to find something specific in such a broad database like SAP.
In essence, the Enterprise search function is finely-tuned to discover the important information and ideas related to a user’s search query.
