Course announcements

  • This course covers the different extensibility approaches for SAP S/4HANA that are available to customers and partners:
    • In-app extensibility focuses on adaptations created by key users that have a deep business knowledge but no technical expertise. In-app extensibility comprises adding new fields or custom logic and adapting the standard UIs. Creating Custom UIs, and custom business objects is also supported.
    • In contrast to in-app extensibility, side-by-side extensibility on SAP Cloud Platform allows developers to build their own applications, enhancing and supplementing SAP S/4HANA and SAP S/4HANA Cloud.
  • Note: in on-premise environments with SAP S/4HANA, besides the in-app and side-by-side extensibility the classic extensibility approaches are still supported. However, this know-how is covered in class BC425 and not in this class S4D425.
