Among the courses are:

• SAP Fiori for iOS – An Introduction – This course will provide business decision-makers, UX designers and others with an understanding of the SAP Fiori for iOS design language, which extends the design foundation provided by SAP Fiori software to achieve a native iOS experience. It will also provide insight into the SAP HANA Cloud Platform SDK for iOS.
• Enterprise Machine Learning in a Nutshell – Over seven units, this course provides an understanding of machine learning for enterprise computing, as well as an understanding of how this technology is advancing.
• Extending SAP S/4HANA with SAP HANA Cloud Platform – This course will teach customers using SAP S/4HANA and developers interested in extending the new in-memory platform how to build extensions with the SAP HANA Cloud Platform. They will use tools such as SAP Web IDE and the SAP Fiori user experience framework to improve UX, apply analytical scenarios with the HANA platform and SAP BusinessObjects Cloud solution, and create collaborative scenarios with SAP’s Jam social software platform.“We are confident that the addition of these courses will allow users to fully grasp the SAP Fiori for iOS design language, understand the power of machine learning as a solution for enterprises and learn how to extend SAP S/4HANA,” said Bernd Welz, executive vice president, scale, enablement and transformation, SAP SE. 

While the SAP Fiori for iOS and enterprise machine learning courses were available starting mid-November, the S/4 HANA course is now open for enrolment, and will commence in January 2017.

The solution will help organisations understand how users are interacting with the SAP Fiori user experience via browsers on desktops, smartphones, tablets and other devices.

“By providing data for SAP Fiori applications across mobile and desktop browsers, our newly integrated solution gives customers a more unified view of user experience data,” said Brian Berns, CEO, Knoa Software. “This data is extremely useful across the deployment lifecycle and allows organisations to gather user-centric information that will dramatically improve adoption and the overall return on the technology investment.”

Knoa’s expanded solution will support the most widely used environment configurations, including devices running Safari (desktop and iOS) and Chrome (desktop, iOS, and Android) browsers.

Knoa announced the new solution ahead of SAPPHIRE NOW, held in Orlando this week. SAP resells the Knoa UEM product as SAP User Experience Management by Knoa.

Salt River Project’s SAP functional solutions architect, Gibbons Saint Paul, said, “Our proof of concept provided a lot of promising results that will jumpstart our Fiori and mobility conversations. User experience is a key focus area for us and having a tool like Knoa UEM can help provide direction on what Fiori applications can provide the best value to our users.”

“Our relationship has evolved over the past 18 months and after a series of highly successful customer engagements, we recognised that a union between the two organisations was a natural fit for helping customers accelerate adoption and realise the most value out of SAP S/4HANA,” said David Booth, chairman and CEO, BackOffice Associates.

The acquisition will benefit organisations adopting SAP S/4HANA by combining CompriseIT’s expertise in SAP application-based architecture, platform, user experience and business process automation with BackOffice’s deep data and accelerated adoption capabilities.

The combined organisation will offer customers a full implementation package including a thorough data and system readiness assessment, deployment of the new SAP Fiori user experience, automation of processes, execution of successful SAP S/4HANA projects and preparation of their existing environments for the move to SAP S/4HANA.

“We are very excited to join the BackOffice Associates family and believe the combination of both organisations will offer the global market unprecedented access to end-to-end SAP S/4HANA delivery knowledge,” said Owen Pettiford, previously of CompriseIT, now senior vice president for SAP digital transformation, BackOffice Associates.
