FIORI Design Principles
There are five design principles for SAP FIORI UI5. These principles make SAP FIORI simple and decompose the different transactions into simple task based UI applications.
Role based: SAP has decomposed various SAP transactions and changed them into beautiful user interactive applications that show only most relevant information users.
Responsiveness: when SAP FIORI is combined with the power of SAP HANA, it provides an unmatched application response and query executions time.
Simple: to make SAP FIORI simple to match the user demand, SAP has designed it as a 1-1-3 scenerio. This means 1 user, 1 use case and 3 screens.
Seamless experience: SAP has provided all the FIORI apps based on the same language and it does not matter on the deployment and platform.
Delightful: SAP FIORI was designed to work with ECC 6.0 to make it easy for the users and to deploy on the existing SAP system.
