Lessons Learned from Implementations

Browser support is a key constraint for clients due to UI5 (HTML5)
Chrome, IE9+, Firefox

The software is being changed and fixed regularly

Always load the latest support pack for EA_HR and for UI5

Loading HR Renewal changes the EA_HR component to 6.07

This causes confusion since Basis think it's EHP7

Portal support is questionable at this time, current version supports NWBC

Dont underestimate the amount of design effort in configuring the actions and in
designing how users, especially in MSS, will use the various services.
e.g. there is the Employee Profile in UI5 with the cards, but you may also use the Employee
Profile from HCM_MSS_WDA_2

Use SAP_CORBU theme

Some pages don't look right without this theme

Sometimes the photos do not show up properly in the org chart as the Photo URLs
expires
Report to reset the cache

Some configuration doesnt get captured in a transport

e.g. changing the catalogs, creating the Gateway OData alias

Difficult to replace a standard SAP lane with a custom lane
