Sapphire 2023 will have lots of useful information for business leaders looking to move their SAP user experience into the future. As the “do more with less” approach persists, there will be a focus on delivering a more intuitive user experience that boosts user productivity, drives collaboration, and standardizes how people interact with SAP applications from across our portfolio.
Some of the UX innovations we will be featuring at Sapphire include
- My Home for SAP S/4HANA Cloud
- Share to Microsoft Teams
- SAP Start (part of the SAP Build Work Zone family and currently in beta)
- Horizon theme
Here are some specific sessions that will feature the above solutions.
