can we integrate enable now with MS teams chatbot? if Yes, what is the process??
I don’t believe so; I’m not aware of any API that would support that. There is rumor of a chatbot of some description coming to SAP Enable Now in the November 2011 release, but I don’t know if that will be using SAP’s own home-grown technology or will be an interface to third-party solutions like MS Teams (I would expect the former).
Hi,
How can I automate the Title Text that the Enable Now choses. For example, currently when I do a recording for creating a Material in SAP, it shows as “Create Material (Initial Screen) – Personal – Microsoft Edge”. Instead I just want the title to show as “Create Material (Initial Screen)”. How can I achieve this? Please help. Since there are more than 30-40 odd pages per training document, requesting your help in this regard.
Thanks,
Prasanna
Short answer: You can’t. That is the application window / browser page name, and is not controlled by SAP Enable Now. As a best practice I always recommend renaming both the Step Name (used in the Progress Bar) and the Screen Title (where used as the Document Headings) to be something meaningful (and selectively show/use them in the Progress Bar / documents). The best you can do is change multiple Steps at the same time. Select (Ctrl+click) on each step that you want to give the same name, and then change the property for al of them at the same time. That will at least save you a bit of effort.
Hi Prasanna,
Have you got any solution for your question, if is yes please share.
Hello Dirk,
I have EnableNow web assistant correctly setup in my fiori system. The question I have is how does the SSO EnableNow manager connect with my Fiori account, when there is no correlation between both the accounts?
Thank You,
Mihir.
For SSO to work seamlessly between your Fiori system and SAP Enable Now, both of those systems must be using the same IAS. If they are not, then you will be prompted for an additional login, because there is no way for your Fiori system to pass your authentication to SEN.
Hello dear Dirk,
Hope you are well.
I have the question regarding “Show End Page” option for Simulation End Macros. Is there any way to remove restart button from there? It seems that for example user can endlessly restart quiz until it is passed. At the same time displaying of End Page is required for us so we can’t unselect this option.
Many thanks in advance.
Best Regards,
Yury
There is no way to configure / customize the End Page at all. However, what I typically do is not have the official End Page displayed, and instead insert a dummy Step with a standard photo (no-application) as the ‘screen’, or a Book Page, as the last Step and provide all the information on that.
Hi Dirk, I’m new to Enable Now and am trying to create a quiz and quiz template. Are there any helpful resources you could recommend?
Hey, Marilyn! Well, my first recommendation would be that if you’re new to SAP Enable Now, don’t start with Quizzes! They are probably the trickiest thing in the entire product. (I’m assuming here you mean an actual Quiz object – as opposed to a Book Page that has a Question on it – though they are also very tricky)
The best thing to do is to get a standard Quiz template from SAP, and then customize that. You can find a few examples on the InfoCenter, under Content and templates > Quiz Templates. If you really want to create your own Quiz Template, I’ve provided instructions here – but it’s not for the faint-hearted.
Bear in mind that the Quiz Template is actually assigned to each Question within a Quiz, and not selected as a Template when you create the Quiz. So a ‘Quiz Template’ is a bit of a misnomer. You can create a Quiz and use that as a Template when creating another Quiz, but the main content of it will be questions, and they will be unique each Quiz, so there’s not a great deal of value in doing that (maybe for some general settings…).
Hope that helps. If you get stuck let me know – or if your employer wants to bring me on as a consultant and do it all for you, I’m happy to do that, too 😉
If it helps, I just added a video to the SAP Enable Now YouTube channel (youtube.com/enablenowexpert) showing how to use a Quiz template. (https://youtu.be/IFAf58JMfw8).
Hi Dirk,
I get these special characters (or unrelated letters and numbers) in my input text field while recording. Any idea why this happens and what settings may I change in the Producer for this to be rectified?
Thank you for your time.
Warm regards,
Johanna
I’ve seen this on occasion. It’s usually down to one of two things: Either the incorrect recording Profile is being used, or you are recording a SAP application (such as SAPGui or Fiori) and Scripting isn’t enabled. What application are you recording, nd what Profile is it trying to use (both what do you select, and what does it say it is using in the recording bar – depending on settings it can dynamically change this).
Hi Dirk,
Thank you for the response. The profile for SAP GUI that is selected is ‘SAP GUI Corbu / Blue Crystal’ and scripting was disabled. But tried again with enabled scripting and have the same issue. It is particularly happening in date fields (and specifically everywhere 0 appears, it reads C15 – not sure if this is even relevant but just in case it helps)
Thanks,
Johanna
So you’re recording against a standard ECC 6.0 system via SAPGui, then? I’m assuming your theme in SAPGui is also set to Corbu / Blue Crystal so that’s why it is using that Profile. Try changing the profile to Standard (as a ‘vanilla’ option) and see if that makes a difference. You may need to change your Authoring Settings > Recording – General > Profile Change to Never Change or it will try to switch back during recording.
Hello Dirk,
Thank you for your response. I will try that.
Best,
Johanna
Hi Dirk,
I was wondering if it is possible to modify the result slide after a test? I can’t find how to add a header or at least a logo, change the resolution of the screen (for now, it is like a scare in the middle of the page, 4:3 I guess), change the content (I would like to edit what appears in the detailed section, the sentence at the top : Congrats…., etc.).
Do you know if there is a way to change all that?
Thank you so much for your help!
You mean the page that is shown at the end of a Quiz? That’s controlled by the Quiz Evaluation macro in the Quiz. That has a Template property, and what information appears on it is controlled by the Format property. You can certainly include your own header/logo – it uses the Trainer Style Adaptable Resource (see the Playback Settings > trainer – Global > Visual properties > Style setting).
Actually, I meant the page that is shown at the end of a test (where the user has to do all the steps by himself and then get a score and the detail of what click he did not get right). Is it the same thing to change that?
Ah, I see. You mean the ‘Stop Page’ that is shown at the end of a simulation project played in Test Mode (see example here). Unfortunately not. You can change the text in the Playback Dictionary, but I don’t think there is a way to customize the overall look of the dialog box.
Hi Dirk, hope you are doing well. I came across this “$#{project:.caption}” that is used as a code in a textbox of a book page for capturing the project name under (or inside) which this book page has been used. Is there a modification of the same code to capture the title of the bookpage? I know about the placeholder “Book page title”. Wondering if there is a similar code that can be used inside a textbox.
Warm regards,
Johanna
Just an addition to my question above, by textbox I also meant the text field of a shape that has been created in a book page.
Sorry, I missed this question. If you didn’t find an answer yet, see my article Fun with Placeholdcers (https://enablenowexpert.com/?p=348) which goes over all the capabilities. (Short answer: yes there is.) Again, apologies for the delayed response.
Hi Dirk,
A very good morning!
Thank you for that article, that is SEN gold!! EXACTLY what I was looking for 🙂
Thanks a ton! You are a genius!!
Best,
Johanna
Hey Dirk,
sorry that I am disturbing You.
Please, is it possible to make some presets in presentation? What I mean is, that the user click on the any chapter on the first slide and he jumps direct there.
Is it possible in generated video too?
Thank You for Your help
The default functionality provides a Table of Contents in the Control Bar that lets you jump to a specific page, and the sections are shown in bold. You can also use the Show Chapter Navigation setting and addition arrows will be shown to jump to the next/previous chapter. There is also an option on individual Book Pages to show a separate Table of Contents (look at the Book Page > Table of Contents category of settings) – you could use that on your first page only, and that would let users jump to any chapter (although it’s overkill to use both that and the Control Bar Table of Contents). If all else fails, you can just build your own hyperlinks (use text, shapes, tiles, whatever…) on the first slide.
Hi Dirk,
I have an issue with audio voiceover on my Book Pages. I recorded it without any problems but my users tell me it’s too quiet (even if they set book settings to max). Is there any way I can increase volume of my audio without re-recording the entire thing?
Thanks in advance!
Well, there’s no way to do it en masse for all of your Book Pages at once, but for each Book Page, assuming this is Page Sound, just click the Edit button (the pencil icon) for the Page Sound property then click the Normalize button (the one that looks like a diamond over 3 lines), then Save and close, and move on to the next Book Page.
