In today’s data-driven business environment, timely access to actionable insights is critical for effective decision-making. SAP S/4HANA Cloud leverages the power of SAP Fiori apps to not only simplify business processes but also seamlessly embed analytics directly within the user interface. This integration allows users to monitor key performance indicators (KPIs), analyze trends, and make informed decisions without switching between multiple tools.
Embedding analytics in Fiori apps refers to the integration of analytical capabilities such as charts, tables, and visual KPIs inside transactional and fact-based apps. This approach provides:
Fiori Launchpad tiles not only act as shortcuts to apps but also display live KPI data, such as sales figures, inventory levels, or pending approvals, giving users a quick overview at a glance.
These provide interactive dashboards embedded within apps or accessible from the launchpad, offering drill-down capabilities and filtering options to explore data in greater detail.
Many Fiori transactional apps include integrated charts and tables that reflect real-time analytics related to the task at hand—for example, visualizing order status, cash flow, or supplier performance directly within the order processing screen.
Advanced analytics features, including predictive analytics and planning, can be embedded using SAP Analytics Cloud integration, expanding the analytical scope available within the Fiori environment.
Ensure that the user has appropriate roles that include access to embedded analytics content.
From the Fiori Launchpad, users can see KPI tiles that update dynamically with real-time data.
Clicking on a KPI tile often drills down to detailed analytical views, enabling exploration of the underlying data.
Use built-in filters and drill-down features within apps to tailor the view and gain deeper insights.
Users can add or remove tiles, create custom analytical cards, and save personalized dashboard views.
Embedding analytics in SAP Fiori apps within SAP S/4HANA Cloud transforms how businesses interact with data by blending operational tasks and insights seamlessly. This convergence empowers users with instant access to relevant data, improving agility, accuracy, and business outcomes. For organizations seeking to leverage their data intelligently, embedded analytics is a cornerstone capability of the SAP S/4HANA Cloud digital experience.
