SAP BTP ABAP Environment – Referenced UI5 Versions and Release Schedule

SAP BTP ABAP Environment (aka “Steampunk”) relies on SAP Fiori as the supported UI technology and design system. One of the key elements of SAP Fiori is the SAP UI5 library. Regarding SAP BTP ABAP Environment, the SAP UI5 library is relevant for:

The ABAP Fiori Launchpad, The delivered SAP apps,The custom apps which are built with SAP Fiori Elements, The custom apps which are built with freestyle SAP UI5 library.

SAP UI5 versions do have their own release cycle. The referenced SAP UI5 version is tightly coupled with the SAP BTP ABAP Environment release. It is not possible to configure other SAP UI5 versions due to functional dependencies between front-end features like in the ABAP Fiori Launchpad and in the backend.

 

Release Schedule 

SAP BTP ABAP Environment is delivered on a quarterly basis (see planned maintenance). SAP UI5 is delivered on a monthly basis. Therefore, each third SAP UI5 major version is consumed by a SAP BTP ABAP Environment release.

Corrections of SAP UI5 versions are delivered via patch versions. The reference to a patched SAP UI5 version can be updated via a hotfix collection of the SAP BTP ABAP Environment (see planned maintenance above).
