System Landscape Requirements

In order to be able to implement this app, your system landscape has to be enabled for SAP Fiori. Depending on the database type serving as the basis in your system landscape, it has to be set up for SAP Fiori and has to meet the respective prerequisites:

The SAP product version in the back-end system serving as the the basis for the app must be the following:

Required Back-End Product (Product Version Stack)

Each SAP Fiori app consists of front-end components and back-end components:
  • The front-end components of the app consist of the user interfaces and content required for launching the app on the SAP Fiori launchpad. These components have to be installed on your front-end server.

  • The back-end components of the app mainly consist of the OData services required for the app. These components have to be installed in your back-end system.

Prerequisites for Implementation

Before implementing the app, you must ensure the following:

  • You have implemented SAP Portfolio and Project Management.

  • You have implemented the social collaboration platform SAP JAM to use the collaboration function.

    Note

    For more information about how to implement SAP JAM, see SAP Library under Start of the navigation path SAP NetWeaver Next navigation step User Interface Add-On for SAP NetWeaver Next navigation step Social Media Integration End of the navigation path.

    The e-mail address in the backend system profile of the user has to be identical with his or her e-mail address used for registration for SAP JAM. At least one SAP JAM group has to be assigned to the user. To discuss about a certain object, users must be assigned to the same SAP JAM group.

  • You use the Knowledge Provider (KPro) component. This app supports only this repository to store documents.

  • You are familiar with the language settings in your back-end system. Language-dependent texts of portfolio management objects are displayed or edited according to the corresponding Customizing settings in following order: master language (if active and available), logon language (if available), or otherwise default language.
