The important features of a Fact sheet are given below –
- Fact sheets are used to drill the key information and contextual information in business operations. In SAP Fiori tiles, you can drill down to further details.
- It also allows you to navigate one-fact sheet to all its related fact sheets.
- Fact sheets also allow you to navigate to Transactional apps to run SAP transactions. A few Fact sheets also provide an integration option of geographical maps.
- You can call Fact sheets from Fiori Launchpad search results, from other fact sheets or from Transactional or Analytical apps.
- Fact sheets only run on SAP HANA database and also require an ABAP stack and they cannot be ported to SAP HANA Live tier-2 architecture.
Example − There is a fact sheet app with the center objects having details about vendor contract. You can drill down to further details like vendor details, contract terms, item details, etc. Configuration of Enterprise Search
