Standard SAP Fiori chart templates are quick to deploy. But real business requirements rarely stop at the standard.
A recent SAP Community article by Vandana Vaswani tackles a good example. An Overview Page (OVP) application needed a dual-combination chart, two lines and two bars in one view. Users also wanted to pick their own chart colours. And they wanted those choices to stick the next time they opened the app. None of that comes out of the box.
The walkthrough covers each step. It uses the SAPUI5 VizFrame control with the dual_combination chart type. A ColorPickerPopover lets users choose colours, and browser localStorage remembers them. It is a neat reminder: standard templates are a starting point, not a ceiling.
The full article, with the complete code for each step, is well worth a read: Advanced VizFrame Customization in SAPUI5 OVP Applications.
