SAP User Interface Guidelines

Introduction | Current Public SAP UI Guidelines | SAP UI Guidelines for SAPGUI Applications | Obsolete UI Guidelines

By Gerd Waloszek, SAP User Experience, Infrastructure – 04/28/2009

On this page, we present an overview of current SAP's UI Guidelines that have been released to the public as well as guidelines that are still valid.

 

Introduction

SAP's UI standards are developed by the SAP UX Standards team, which is a group within SAP User Experience. The UI Standards provide general guidance on how to develop and use the UI building blocks for SAP's business applications. These general standards have, however, to be broken down and interpreted for the different technical platforms used at SAP. Therefore, further groups within SAP User Experience develop guidelines adapted to the different technical platforms used by SAP applications. Currently, only the CRM guidelines have been released to the public. In addition, there are further guidelines that have been released for SAPGUI applications (R/3) and are still binding.

 

Current Public SAP UI Guidelines

Regarding current guidelines, only the CRM guidelines have been released to the public:

 

SAP UI Guidelines for SAPGUI Applications

Guidelines for SAPGUI applications are no longer explicitly maintained, but are nevertheless binding for this technology.
They are part of the R/3 documentation and available in the development environment.

 

Obsolete SAP UI Guidelines

As many SAP customers and partners still use older version of SAP software, there is still a need for providing obsolete SAP UI standards. You will find these outdated UI guidelines and papers in the Resources Archive.
