Exploring the themes in SAP Fiori

Each SAP SuccessFactors user is assigned a username and password for your company's SAP SuccessFactors instance.

Additionally, your company is assigned a URL and Company ID. To log in to SAP SuccessFactors, enter the Company ID, username, and password when prompted on the Login screen. The look and feel of your Login screen depends on the theme used in the instance.

You can use Theme Manager to control the look and feel of the SAP SuccessFactors system. You can select from a list of predefined themes or create custom themes, then assign them to different groups in your organization.

With Theme Manager, you can

• Select from a list of predefined themes
• Create new themes
• Assign different themes to different groups in your organization (based on department, division, or location)
• Apply a different theme to landing pages, like the home page
• If you don't choose or create a default theme, the latest SAP Fiori theme is used by default for all groups.

Consider these different strategies for theming your SAP SuccessFactors system.

• Use one of the predefined themes provided in Theme Manager as-is.
• Create a custom theme based on one of the predefined themes in Theme Manager. First, duplicate one of the predefined themes to use as a starting point. Then, change some theme settings to apply your brand, such as logo or header background color, and keep most predefined colors and settings.

The Horizon visual theme is the latest evolution of the SAP Fiori design system. It's enabled by default in all SAP SuccessFactors systems and available on the most commonly used pages in the HCM Suite.

The Horizon visual theme is a purely visual change. There's no impact on functionality or data. On pages that use the Horizon visual theme, you see the following visual changes:

• Updated visual treatment, such as rounded corners and drop shadows
• Updated typography, such as font sizes and font weights
• Updated default color palette, with higher contrast
• Updated theming, with more consistent use of colors in custom themes
• Updated icon set
• Updated spacing, such as margins and padding

It's important to understand the relationship between themes in the SAP Fiori design system and themes in the SAP SuccessFactors HCM Suite. Both impact the look and feel of your SAP SuccessFactors system but in different ways.

SAP SuccessFactors uses SAP Fiori visual themes as the base for colors and styling in the HCM Suite.
