How to map business process and enterprise service?

Recently, I read some documents about ESA. I'm confusing about the relationship between business process and enterprise service. In other word, how to map the business process to enterprise service after the business process is analyzed? Is there any methodology/rule to define business process and wrap them into service in ESA?

Hi Sherry,
I like to add some of my thoughts about that discussion. From my point of view ESA is much more than just another BPM or Enterprise BPM. ESA is adresses six key areas and I think all of them are really needed:
- People Productivity as the word itself describes...it's about portals and productivity.
- Embedded Analytics has to integrate transactional and analytical content.
- Service Composition is used for model-driven service composition and services orchestration.
- Service Enablement is about a Enterprise Services Repository filled with business meaningful Enterprise Services and service patterns for enabled objects. Excactly this is where SAP has years of experiences.
- Business Process Platform is about service enablement of all application platform objects and engines. This is the place where "BPM" for core business processes resits.
- Life-Cycle Management has to cover the deployment, configuration, operation and change management for ESA based processes.
Therefore the term "BPM" is located in serveral layers of an ESA approach. On the level of Business Process Platform BPM is providing the choreography for core business preocesses.
At Service Enablement BPM needs to compose out of granular services (I would say "atomic" services)
buiness meaningful services (here we have "molecular" services).
The third level where BPM could be used is Service Composition because exactly this is the place
where serveral Enterprise Services could be combined to a process representation.
To come back to the discussion:
1. The question should be how to indentify business meaningful services which could represent single process steps. ATP check, Credit card check, ... could be examples. In theory this service could be out-tasked, defined more flexible etc. This means that processes needs to be evaluated for Enterprise Service candidates. Afterwards you can check against SAP's Enterprise Services Repository for already existing Enterprise Services. The evalution for enterprise services candidates will be supported by the metodology mentioned by Kaj and David.
2. I think domains in this context should be motivated by business and/or functional areas. Depending on the granularity. For example Order Fulfilment Services, Master Data Services, Search Services... These kind of serices can be combined again to services such as "Search of Master Data" (Search Service + Read Master Data Service) etc. or can be used to generate UI to be used in a ESA application.
Your thoughts?
Very best regards

How to map business process?

Folks,
I have the following requirement:
I have 1 plant with 2 SLOC's:
SLOC1 = warehouse - assigned to WHS WH1
SLOC2 = service van
SLOC1 delivers to SLOC2; i.e. the van has stock requirements at SLOC1.
How can I process these requirements from SLOC1 to SLOC2? The required materials need to be picked in WM from SLOC1. The van will be at the dock of SLOC1 to pick up the materials. I dont want to process this via shipping.
Any suggestions?
Thanks.

Hi,
The van picks up the material at the WHS itself. The 311/313/315 is an option, however, the requirements should be processed via SAP as well. So the service van has stock of a certain material and becomes below safety stock and for example MRP creates a reservation which will then be procssed via WM.
Other scenario is that a service order is put in place with certain components. These components are combined in a reservation as well.
Can MRP create reservations and how can I process these reservations in WM?

MdZ

Mapping in a Business Process

Hi,
I have a business process. This process is calling one webservice first. To call the second one the result from the first webservice and the input for the whole business process is needed. How can I create a mapping for this or solve this problem otherwise?
When I try to create a mapping I am only able to choose one import massage, but I have to map all required variables for the output.
Thank you!
Julia

Hi Julia and Jörg,
You don't need the parallel switch. Since the incoming message (that starts the business process) is received into a container, it is then available throughout the entire process, until the container is overwritten.
So you can do the call to the webservice, and after that, just do a merge map with the two source messages and one target message.
e.g.
incoming start message -> Container1
webservice request -> Container2
webservice response -> Container3
mergemap result -> Container4
so at the mergemap step, source messages are in Container1 & Container3. The target message will be in Conatiner4.
Hope this makes sense.
Cheers
Manish

Kindly advise on new business process to map to SAP

Hello All,
I have one business process and I could not able to map to SAP.
Please help me out.
I have two company codes and one company code does the export business and other one supplies some parts to exports company code.
Please find the scenario details in below.
Company code 1000 Company Code 2000 (Exports)
Plant 1000 Plant 2000
X is the final product which is assembled with below parts (BOM)
(Part A,Part B,Part C,Part D)
Business Process:
1. Plant 2000 places an order to Plant 1000 for final product "X".(It is the combination of Parts A,B,C,and D)
2. Plant 2000 supplies Part E and Part F to plant 1000 without billing as RGP (Returnable goods packing).
3. Plant 1000 receives parts E and F from Plant 2000
4. Plant 1000 packs all the parts in one cart (ABCDE+F) and issues the final product "X" and part E and part F to Plant 2000
5. Plant 2000 receives the final product X and part E and part F and as soon as GR done Part E and Part F should get consumed automatically in Plant 2000
6. Plant 1000 sends the invoice for the Parts A,B,C and D and for service also.
7. Plant 2000 pays invoice amount to plant 1000
8. Plant 1000 receives the payment from plant 2000
Please suggest me the suitable process in SAP and let me know if you need further explanation.

Hi,
For the above process you can map with Sub con process
Step1 ) Create BOM in plant 2000 under cocd 2000 as End product /Header Material(X) and Component/child material as E and F
Step 2) Create Sub con PO in plant 2000 under cocd 2000 with Vendor as Plant 1000 under co cd 1000
Step 3) Transfer Component/child material E and F to Vendor as Plant 1000 under co cd 1000 using 541 Movt type.
Steps 4) In Plant 1000 under co cd 1000 maintain material E and F as Non Valuated only Qty update.
Step 5) Receipt the Component/child material E and F using Movt type 501 to update stock.
Step 6) Create BOM IN Plant 2000 under co cd 2000 as End product/ Header material as X and Component/child material as A, B, C , D, E & F.
Step 7) Create sales order in Plant 1000 under co cd 1000 with customer as plant 2000 under cocd 2000
Step 8) MRP run if require to plan the material A, B, C & D.
Step 9) Procure the material A, B, C & D if stock less.
Step 10) Create Production order/ Process order for Material X.
Step 11) Confirm production order and receipt the End material (X) AGAINST Production order.
Step 12) Crete out bond delivery VL01N for Material X and Goods issue (VL02N)
Step 13) Billing VF01
Step 14) MIGO goods receipt in Plant 2000 under co cd 2000 against Sub on PO here Material E & F will consumes upon GR and end/ Header Material X will updated Stock.
Step 15) MIRO to settle Vendor Account. Hope this will helps you.

Best Practices for ASAP Inputs - As-Is Business Process Mapping

I am new to the SAP world and my company is in the early phases of implementation. I am trying to prepare the "as-is" business process maps for the Project Preparation and Business Blueprint phases and I am looking for some best practices. I've been told that we don't want them to go too deep but are there best practices and/or examples that give more information on what we should be capturing and the format.
I have searched the forums, WIKI, ASAP documentation, and other areas but have not found much at this level of detail. I have reviewed the [SAP BPM Methodology|http://wiki.sdn.sap.com/wiki/display/SAPBPX/BPM+Methodology] but again I am looking for more detail if anyone can direct me to that.
Thank you in advance for any assistance.
Kevin

Hello Kevin,
You can try to prepare a word document for each of your As-Is processes first before going to As-Is Process Design in a flowchart.
The word document can have 7 sections -
The first section can include Name of the Process Owner, Designation, Process Responsibility, User Department(s) involved, Module Name and a Document number for reference.
The second section can include Process Definition details - Name of the major process, Name of the minor process, Name of the sub process and a Process ID for future reference.
The third section can be titled as Inputs - this contains details of - Input, Vendor for the input, Type of Input (Data / Activity / Process), Category of Input (Vital / Essential / Desirable) and Mode of Information (Hard / Soft Copy).
The fourth section can be Process Details. Here you can write the process in detail.
The fifth section to contain outputs of the process, customer to whom these outputs are sent, type of output (report / approval / plan / request / email / fax), Category of Output (Vital / Essential / Desirable) and Mode of Information (Hard / Soft Copy).
The sixth section can be Issues / Pain Areas in this process - Issue Description, Remarks, Expectations, Priority (High / Medium / Low)
The seventh section can be expected reports in future out of this process for internal and external reporting.
Hope this helps your question.

Business process and mapping in BPC

Greetings experts,
I am a BPC consultant on my first project and i need some assistance in the mapping of some client business processes in the system. I am configuring Business planning for the client. The scenario goes as follows:
The client wants to plan for expenditure in different cost centers. They also plan for revenue in different funds centers. I have created manual planning for them for the 2 different scenarios(in BI environment where data sits in an infocube). Now the revenue planning planning and expenditure planning should be integrated in such a way that, when the budgeted amounts are due for release, the system should only release the difference between the revenues collected and the planned expenditures.
Thats the scenario in a nutshell. Could kindly assist me with the most appropriate method of mapping the business process in the system. In business planning there are different processes like amortization, copy, formula, distribution, forecast, etc, but i cant figure out the most appropriate in my business scenario.
Thanks in advance for your assistance.

Tatenda

Dear Rama,
Basically business processes are the actual day to day processes any oraganisation carries out. When we have to group tcodes / functions for rule creation , we group them according to a business process so that we can easily relate them to each other within the business process. Eg : Procure to Pay.
So the rules have to be created such that in this process there are no SOD violations in the access given to users. Thus it makes risk analysis more logical and simple for analysis.
Thanks,

SAP business process maps for mySAP ECC6.0?

Any idea how we can get the SAP business process maps for mySAP ECC6.0? Is this imbedded in Solution Manager?
Thanks,
Phani

Hello Phani,
I suppose you are looking for the solution maps for mySAP ERP (which contains SAP ECC as a component). These maps are not contained in the SAP Solution Manager, but they are delivered with the SAP Solution Composer, an offline PC tool which allows you to browse and pre-scope your own solution (evaluating your solution). The tool itself including the latest solution map content is always available for download at the SAP Service Marketplace:
<a href="http://service.sap.com/s-composer">http://service.sap.com/s-composer</a>
You can also view the mySAP ERP - as part of the cross-industry maps - right here:
<a href="http://service.sap.com/form/sapnet?_SHORTKEY=01100035870000338980&">http://service.sap.com/form/sapnet?_SHORTKEY=01100035870000338980&</a>
The SAP Solution Manager would then come into play for configuring the respective processes (implementing you solution).

Business Process Maps/ Process Flows for Retail Operations

Dear All,
I am looking for Business Process Maps/ Process Flows for Retail Operations like forecasting, inter store transfers, ASN, Procurement, Allocation etc.
Kindly provide me with a link, docs, PPts etc.
Appreciation would be in the form of points.
Regards,
Jack Silverz

Hi Jack
Seeing as you only got one reply - I'm jumping in with my 2-peneth.
Seldom have I found process content which sufficiently explains both manual and automated processes in a format which is sufficiently simple to engage discussion (between project teams and business representatives). Is there a way to strike the required balance - simplicity for the sake of engagement; yet rich enough to record SAP dependencies, system requirements and so forth.
An answer in my opinion is [here|https://ecohub.sdn.sap.com/irj/ecohub/solutions/control2007]. (Honest account - I work for Nimbus. But you don't have to take my word for it. Check out our case studies if you like. This approach is being adopted by several strategic SAP accounts several of which are listed [here|https://ecohub.sdn.sap.com/irj/ecohub/solutions/control2007]).
What might partly address your requirement is the [APQC Process Classification Framework|http://www.apqc.org/portal/apqc/site/?path=/research/pcf/index.html] . We took this framework as a starting point for building a model company process map. I cannot claim that it is Retail specific, but we have quite a few retail customers who have adopted Control 2007 and also several supply chain optimization projects which we have delivered.
If this is of interest - we provide a web hosted demonstration environment where you can explore the APQC process content I mentioned above. You can contact me through [SAP EcoHub|https://ecohub.sdn.sap.com/irj/ecohub/solutions/control2007] for more details

How to map the business process in account receivable

Hi All,
i am working on a different scenario can any body suggest me on this,
Business process my client is into service industry they will send Tenders to customer along with EMD amount,
once they got the project they will coverts that amount into securiy deposit,
for example:
EMD amount 1000000
got the project that amount goes to security deposit 1000000,
after work done they will rese invoice to that customer based on payment terms they will get money from customer,
if they rise 50000 invoice he will be sending 48000 rupess only remaing 2000 will be keep it as security deposit
and again they will rise 50000 he will be seding 48000 rupess only remaing 2000 will be keep it as secrity deposit once the project closed after six to eight month he will be sending that 4000 rupees.
here my client want that 4000 should not be shown as open item.
can any body suggest me how to do that in SAP
kind regards
kiran

Hi Kiran
As per the business scenario and the process in SAP, you are having only three options in clearing procudure as you may be aware.
1) standard - bill to total payment
2) partial - partial amount against invoice(Inovice and receipt will be in open item status)
3) residual ( new open item will be generated)
If they don't want to show the remaining 4,000 as open item in the customer account, how they want to treat in the books.
create a seperate G/L security deposits receivables and transfer the amounts to the account. Whenver you receive the amount knock off the amount

Siva
