OUTLINE
• Why move to UI4.3?• End user perspective• IT perspective• How to transition?• Questions?
WHY UI4.3?
• Did you install UI4.0 or UI4.1?• Did you convert to UI4.2?• Did you run WebUI (3.x)?• Do you still have Desktop (2.3)?
Same answer: Install UI4.3 – NOW!
WHY UI4.3
• Dump WebUI 3.x - bizarre• Dump UI 4.0, 4.1 –
architecture• Skip UI4.2 – same with bug
fixesUI 4.3 is 100% SilverLight, no
wIntegrate
END USER PERSPECTIVE
• UI4.3 requires SilverLight plugin• 100% web application• No software to install/maintain
on PC• Does NOT behave like traditional
web forms with GET/POST
UI4.3 LOGIN
UI4.3 STARTUP
UI4.3 PERSON LOOKUP
UI4.3 ADVANCED SEARCH
UI4.3 CONTEXT CARD
UI4.3 MAPPING
UI4.3 PERSON FAVORITES
UI4.3 FORM SEARCH
UI4.3 “OLD” NAVIGATION STILL PRESENT
UI4.3 FORM: SPRO
UI4.3 EXPORT DATA FROM WINDOW
UI4:3: TO CLOSE OR NOT TO CLOSE?
UI4.3 SUMMARY FOR END USERS
• Person Lookup before form can be disabled
• UI4.x introduced Person lookup before form
• UI4.3 can be made to work like Desktop 2.3
IT PERSPECTIVE
• Users no longer have client on PC (yippie)
• UI 4.3 authenticates users like WA – via DMI
• Users no longer need OS login on APP server
• UI4.3 uses new listener for file xfers• APP server no longer needs FTP enabled
IT PERSPECTIVE
• Security class can disable Excel export for PERSON lookups
• Can limit number of connections per user and/or environment
• Can send broadcast message to all users logged in
• Can setup admin users with no login limits
IT PERSPECTIVE
• Requires Windows server with IIS• SilverLight talks to IIS, web
service talks to Colleague• Some tinkering to get
performance right may be required.
IT PERSPECTIVE – WINDOWS SERVER
• MMC console used to control web services• DMI listener• File xfer limit• Web service URL
• ISS Manager used to control web sites• Setup SSL• Setup # worker processes (like WA)

TRANSITION
• Tutorial video included• Works for most
knowledgeable users• Not good for users who don’t
use PERSON-centric forms (GL, CRSE, etc)
TRANSITION
• Installed UI4.3 in test• Made all users come to training• Showed video in groups• Allowed all users to login and
play• Get people out of their office!
TRANSITION
• End users MUST try it out• If they say “whatever” – they’ll
be back with questions later• Most people, given time to play,
love it.
