Overview
There are three main sections to the FAB run-time environment:
FAB Launchpad
FAB Launchpad is the main end-user entry point for FAB applications, it functions as FAB's centralized application home page. It will display tiles, which can either represent applications or be used as a navigation control to allow end-user to access a set of applications.
The tile can display an icon, title, text, charts, category sets i.e. Finance and real-time KPI's i.e. running tally of requests requiring approval.
FAB Launchpad utilizes role-based security and all applications are associated with a role. Consequently, the end-user will only view applications that have been associated with their role.
My Forms
My Forms allows end-users to track the progress of their submitted application progress:
- Submitted applications and view past
- application by the end-user (Submitted By Me).
- Any requests that require
- the end-user's action (To Approve).
- Any requests that were changed by the end-user
- but were initially submitted by another end-user (Actioned By Me).
- List of applications in which the end-user has administrative permissions (Administrator).
New Form
A new form is an application created by you or your organization, an unlimited number can be created.
When the application is selected, it launches a URL.
The application is used to initiate a process flow, which may retrieve real-time data from SAP and require end-user(s) to enter new data or select from available options.
When designing a new form, the following should be considered: structure; flow; interface elements; field labels and help. Note, this isn't an exhaustive list.
