Mobility for MII Dashboards

[darshansheth]

Hi Experts,

We have a requirement to built dashboards(charts and SVG's) in MII which need to be accessed using mobile devices (Iphone, tablets) which run on any OS and needs to be working in all browsers too. We are currently on SAP MII 14.0 (SP4 P7). We are planning to move ahead with development using HTML5 (will be using external libraries for charts).

Can this be done using SAP UI5 or SAP Fiori. If yes, what would be the path forward.

Hi Darshan.

You can build your dashboards using SAPUI5 library controls.

SAPUI5 has both desktop and mobile controls.

These links will help:

Hi Rohit,

We are currently on SAP MII 14.0 (SP4 P7), will we be able to create dashboards using charts as well as SVG objects. would we be required to import add-on libraries to get this working.

Also client wanted to know if we can make use of Fiori for the same?  Can we build webpages out of fiori that can make use of BLS/templates that are in MII.

Yes you can and in this BLOG (http://scn.sap.com/community/manufacturing/mii/blog/2013/10/31/sap-mii-and-html-5-demystified) I show how to instantiate an SAP UI5 object (This is the library that Fiori is based on) directly on a MII hosted web page.

Remember, Fiori is a design concept and not really a technology; the technology is UI5 and this is fully supported by MII along with other 3rd party HTML 5 objects.
