Optimize ITSmobile Layouts with UI5 Creator
Advanced warehouse processes require mobile dialogs which can be used clearly, uniquely and ergonomically on each device. It is right here where the conversion of classic ITSmobile layouts into SAP-UI5 comes into play: It creates flexible user interfaces that automatically adapt to terminals and work environments and, in this way, facilitate daily work. This specialist article gives an overview of the benefits that FIS/UI5 Creator provides in everyday warehouse life – from improved operability to more stable processes on mobile terminals.

What is FIS/UI5 Creator?
FIS/UI5 Creator is a solution integrated into the SAP system to convert ITSmobile applications, e.g. radio dialogs in the warehouse, into a modern and convenient UI5 design. With this solution, rigid layouts belong to the past. FIS/UI5 Creator is a logistics solution developed by FIS, which complements the SAP standard version.
What benefits does FIS/UI5 Creator provide?
automatically optimized for each mobile terminal – from hand-held scanners to tablets
convenient working thanks to optimized zoom functionality and clear UI
flexible adjustment to the prevailing conditions of the working environment, e.g. bright or dark lighting conditions
in case of WLAN interruptions or inactivity, an independent reconnect will take place – without error message or page termination
What properties characterize the UI5 design compared to the classic ITSmobile display?
Without UI5 design, work in ITSmobile is typically based on a very simple text- and table-oriented user interface, which is functional but has clear limits in an advanced logistics environment. The following properties characterize working without UI5:
|
Aspect |
ITSmobile (without UI5) |
UI5 design (with FI/UI5 Creator) |
|---|---|---|
|
Layout & display |
Rigid, tabular layouts; not very flexible |
Responsive display for all mobile terminals |
|
Operability |
Small buttons, not very ergonomic, technical appearance |
Large pushbuttons, advanced UI elements, intuitive operability |
|
Working comfort |
Hardly any zoom options; monotonous in its display |
Optimized zoom function, adjustable user interfaces, comfortable handling |
|
Light & environment conditions |
No changeable color schemas; difficult readability |
Individual color schemas for bright/dark environments |
|
Terminal support |
Designed for classic PDC devices |
Optimized for scanners, tablets, smartphones and terminals |
|
Connection terminations |
Error messages in case of inactivity or WLAN loss |
Automatic reconnect without termination or new logon |
