Company Settings:

 

General Settings:

We can enable or disable a number of options for your users or a selected role via company settings. To perform this setting, proceed as follows:

1.In the General tab, select any of the following check boxes to enable or disable specified features

Below are the important features which are available in General tab for Company Settings:

Disable User Personalization Features: Prevents users from personalizing their screens. The option of personalization does not appear for all users the next time they log on to the system. Any personalization settings maintained by the users prior to disabling of the option are retained. They cannot make any further changes except personalizing the background image.

Enable Horizontal Scrollbar: Allows users to control the width of one particular column without impacting the width of the other columns in the same table. If the width goes beyond a certain size, the table size increases and the system displays a horizontal scroll bar for them to control the table navigation.

Disable Flags, Favorites, Follow: Prevents users from marking objects as flags or favorites for quick access.

Disable Go to SAP Store Button: Prevents users from downloading applications from the SAP Store.

Disable Download Button: Prevents users from using the download button

Disable Quick View: Prevents users to see a preview for an object without navigating to its details.

Set Chunk View as Default: Provides the users an alternative visualization for the table view in tablets.

Disable Report Incident: Prevents users from creating an incident. This allows administrators to control the incidents that are reported to SAP. However, administrators can report incidents even when this is disabled.

Disable Annotation: Prevents the end user from annotating their screen to highlight a specific part of the information using tools such as free-hand drawing, arrow, rectangle, and call-out texts in the Fiori Client.

Disable Implicit Personalization: Implicit Personalization changes that are made by the user on the fly without using the Personalize: Implicit or Adapt menus. When you disable it, the system does not remember the following changes made by the user:

    • Sorting, reordering, or resizing columns.

 

    • Grouping table by a column.

 

    • Collapsing or expanding section groups and pane containers

In HTML5 client, the end user can select Personalize to remember these changes.

In Fiori client, the system will continue to remember the following settings: Last table view (Map view, Chunk View, and so on) , Last action (Save and Open, Save, and so on).

This behavior change is not applicable for Save Query and Organize Queries.This behavior change is introduced to boost the “performance” of end users.

Enable Flat Navigation Menu: If you work with a small set of work centers, you can see only those work centers views rather than the complete set. This avoids additional clicks in opening the work center and then clicking the view you are looking for, thus, enhancing your user experience by reducing the number of clicks needed to perform a task. Once turned on, this affects all business roles and business users.

Note: Some work center views like Target Group are assigned to multiple work centers and might appear more than once.

Enable easy create from object detail view: When you are in an object detail view, the easy create feature lets you create a related object. This reduces a few click as you do not have to first navigate to the respective tab to create a related object. Easy create is available within an object detail page and can be accessed by the “+” sign.

Disable Enterprise Search in Fiori Client : Prevents users from using enterprise search in Fiori client. We recommend that you disable it if you do not use it much.

Disable Auto-search on Lists: Prevents users from using auto-search on lists in the Fiori client.

Disable Multi Tabs in Tablets: Prevents users from using multi tabs in tablets in the Fiori client. If we disable the option then there will be a back button as shown in image.

Enable Nearby Search and Search by Area on the Map: Allows users to use search nearby and search by area functionality in map in the Fiori client. You need to maintain the latitude and longitude for the objects before using the Search Nearby and Search by Area functionality.

Hide Submit a Feature Idea Menu Option: Hides the following menu link for business users: Share Your Ideas in Fiori client in Fiori client and Make SAP Cloud for Customer Better in HTML5 client. When enabled, the company setting is applicable in both HTML5 UI and Fiori client. However, the administrators continue to see this link and can provide valuable feedback to SAP.

Hide Navigation Menu on login in Fiori client: You have the choice to hide the navigation menu on login in Fiori client to get a cleaner look-n-feel on logging in and have more area to view and work on the user interface.

Enable Map in Calendar Day View in Fiori client: In the calendar day view, we will be able to see the map view with the travel path. You can also see the desired accounts on map through account query selector. Drag and drop the desired accounts from map to calendar to plan an ad hoc activity. Google Maps and AutoNavi Maps are supported in the calendar day map view interface.
