Former Member

Hi All ,

We are planning to implement SAP Portal on Device. Our system configuration is SAP NW EP 7.31 SP08 &SAP ECC 6.0 Ehp 5 . Currently we are using ESS/MSS in desktop version.

The requirement is Platform independent Time sheet and Travel management functionality and Improvement of  Look and Feel.

In DEV system we have done few MSS/ESS configuration for the Mobil/Table.

When we are accessing the portal in Mobile/Table the configured folders (T&E,UWL and Address ) in appearing in the Launcher screen.

But  when click on the folder to open the iViews the error is coming (Sorry , your browser/program is not supported  by Webdynpro).

Same Error is coming both for the Android as well as Apple iOS8.

Dear Ashish,

We had also done POC to check POD. we used moble launcher roles and configured UWL iview.

Unfortunately following are the results

1. Portal provides functionality to configure mobile role but the legecy WDJ and WDA iviews are not supported.

2. WDJ applications will open but it will not be tweaked to mobile. The same desktop application will open e.g. Leave approval... Any number of controls can work or not work. like sometimes dropdowns dont work. there is no way to make sure that these applications will work.

2. WDA is not supported at all. that means these applications will not even open up on mobile browser.

If you want to use mobile applications, SAP recommends that you create SAPUI5 applications and configure those in your mobile role.

Only these can work.

You need SAP gateway to translate RFC logic to OData that SAPUI5 application can consume

SAP Gateway can be installed on AS ABAP or standalone server.

The SAPUI5 application can be deployed on portal or on ABAP server.

You have special iview template for creating SAPUI5 iviews in portal. these iviews can then be attached to Mobile role and given to mobile users.

Dear Please notice that UWL is also a JAVA application and may not work optimally on Mobile.

So this is not that straighforwad,

For leveraging full Mobile capabilities, you need SAP mobile platform 3.0
