  • Role of a Business Analyst in SAP

    HI,
    Can some tell me what is role of a business analyst in SAP?.
    I know BA is gathers requirement from Client and gives it to the technical team.
    I am little confused to what it exactly is the work . A SAP consultant also configures according the client, so isn't his role same as the business analyst.
    If some could send me a few documents for me understand, will really be appreciated
    Thanks

    Dear Abhishek,
    Role of a mySAP Functional Consultant
    What are the differences between a functional and business consultant?
    The difference between Functional consultant and Business consultant are as follows:
    1) A funcitonal consultant is able to configure the system unlike business consultant.
    2) Functional consultant know more about business process unlike Business consultant.
    3) A business consultant will bring business process knowledge and provide it to functional consultant who in turn used this knowledge to configure the system. 
    4) Functional consultant has more configuration knolwledge then Business consultant.       
    The responsibilities of a support consultant are:
    - Primarily responsible for Handling tickets and application support to the endusers
    - When an issue comes diagnose, analyse and solve the issue
    - Responsible for any enhancements
    - Writing functional specs and interacting with Abapers to develop any user exits 
    - Training the end users and preparing end user training material               
    For those who wished to know the role of a functional consultant.  Below is one view:
    A functional consultant evaluates the demands in talking with the customer's representatives, transforms the essence into an abstract and algorithmic business model. Hence, he identifies the use cases and transforms them into logical and technical views. 
    Then the main task starts: customizing the respective business area and making sure the system reacts in the manner according to the constraints of the requested use case. 
    The consultant documents the settings and prepares proper guidelines that allow other consultants to do further changes or repairs with due efforts. 
    The consultant takes care that proper training is given to the users and that the system is usable, performing appropriately and the business flow is complete and correct. 
    During go live he assists the technical staff by testing the behaviour of the system. 
    After go live he guarantees that the procedures remain usable and consistent in real live situation and proposes enhancements. 
    The main duty of a consultant is to transfer external know-how to the client. It is not manpower that counts but intelligence, understanding of processes, a feeling for defects and general a common sense. 
    Role of a Functional Consultant in an End To End Implementation
    When you talk about the role of a Functional consultant in an end to end implementation, I think it won't be possible for me or anybody to define everything but I will try to summarize it:
    1. Functional consultant is expected to generate knowledge about the current business process, design current business flows, study current business processes and its complication, in all we can say getting through with current business setup. Flow diagrams and DFD are prepared, most of the time in Vision format, all this forms the part of AS IS document.
    2. Everything configured has to be documented as per their categories in the form of predefined templates, these have to be then approved by the team leads or who ever the consultant is reporting to.
    3. Mapping and GAP analysis is done for each module, I have seen people defining integration after mapping, gap analysis and configuration is done, but as per my experience in implementation, it is a simultaneous process.
    4. Before starting configuring  future business processes in SAP, the DFD/ERD are prepared, this documentation is called TO BE, which can be also siad as the result of mapping and gap analysis.
    5. Sometimes Functional consultants are also expected to prepare test scripts for testing the configured scenarios.
    6. End user manual and user training is also expected from F.Consultants.
    The project normally starts off  with a Kick off meeting in which the team size, team members, reporting system, responsibilities, duties, methodlogy, dates and schedules, working hours which have been predicided are formally defined.
    ASAP, it won't be possible for me to explain it here, but all I can tell you about it is that it is SAP standard implementation methodology, which SAP prescribes but is not mandatory for any company to follow, such as IBM follow some blue Methodlogy, some companies follow typical SDLC steps, ASAP stands for Accerlated SAP, you can find all the steps on SAP site, through google, reading it from there won't give you a great knowledge about ASAP but will obviously get you to know the definitions of various term. 
    Hope this helps you. Please let me know in case of any queries.
    Regards,
    Rakesh

  • What is the role of ABAP technical analyst?

    Dear Friends,
    I would like to know the roles and responsibilities of a ABAP technical analyst for MM ,SD,FI/Co modules.?
    Please tell me in detail what are the other roles or positions are there in an implementation or support project.
    Very curious to know about the implementation cycle in SAP projects.
    like I have heard of aggies,GAP analysis ,Blue print study....But dont have clear picture.
    So relying on Sdn experts completely....
    Thanks,
    Reshali.

    I disagree.  I think the coffee corner is the best place for this kind of general question.  So I've moved it here. Sure, you'll get some sarcastic or teasing answers, but you'll also get some helpful answers.
    However, a general question can only be answered generally.  And I'm not sure how helpful that is.  The role of ABAP technical analyst varies from site to site.
    For example, at one site, I had to:
    Take functional spec and write technical spec and unit test scripts.  If there were questions not addressed in the functional spec, I put it back to the functional analyst.  Once I'd completed the technical spec and unit test scripts, they were reviewed.  Once reviewed and found acceptable, I could code.  I would then run the test scripts, and record the results.  Again my work would be reviewed - the tech spec, the unit test scripts, the results, and the ABAP code.  Once accepted, the development would go into testing.  At any point in the cycle we could go back to an earlier point, get a review, carry on, make changes, get a review...
    So, my responsiblities there were:
    1. Write technical specs from functional spec.
    2. Write unit test scripts
    3. Develop programs
    4. Unit test the programs according to the scripts and record results
    5. Review other programmers technical specs and ensure they match the functional spec.
    6. Review other programmers test scripts and ensure that they are thorough enough
    7. Review other programmers testing and ensure it has been done properly
    8. Review other programmers code, ensure it matches the technical spec and conforms to standards of quality.
    ( This might sound like overkill, but this site was the ONLY site I've ever worked where the vast majority of programs worked correctly in production - the rigourous checks upfront saved that company a fortune in maintenance. ).
    At another site:
    Given a functional spec, write a program and a technical spec.
    btw - when you asked the question in the XI forum, Ramakrishna's answer was copy and paste from SAP Help.

  • Role of BI Technical Consultant ?

    Hi Experts,
                     I am a newbie to SAP BW. I have a doubt regarding the roles of Bw Technical and BW functional consultant. I want to know what will be the exact roles of a BW technical and BW functional consultants in a BW project. That is what kind of work they need to do generally in a project?
    Points will be rewarded to helpfull answers
    Regards,
    Ravi

    Hi Ravi,
    In general Functional means, derive the funtional specification from the business requirement document. This job normally is done either by the business analyst or system analyst who has a very good knowledge of the business. In some large organizations there will be a business analyst as well as system analyst.
    In any business requirement or need for new reports or queries originates with the business user. This requirement will be recorded after discussion by the business analyst. A system analyst analyses these requirements and generates functional specification document. In the case of BW it could be also called logical design in DATA MODELING.
    After review this logical desing will be translated to physical design . This process defines all the required dimensions, key figures, master data, etc.
    Once this process is approved and signed off by the requester(users), then conversion of this into practically usable tasks using the SAP BW software. This is called Technical. The whole process of creating an InfoProvider, InfoObjects, InforSources, Source system, etc falls under the Technical domain.

  • Course WUS581 - Technical Details of SAP CRM Web UI

    I had the opportunity to attend 'WUS581 - Technical Details of SAP CRM Web UI' last month in Atlanta.  I understand it to have been the first time the course was offered in the US. 
    The course was great - here's a link to the official [description|https://training.sap.com/ca/en/course/wus581-wus581-tech-details-of-sap-crm-web-ui-classroom-095-us-en/] . I believe this was an adaptation of the material from the Deep Dive Series. I have to say, that it was pretty fast paced as well - you really need to keep up as much of the material built upon what was already taught. 
    The materials from the class are invaluable.  The labs were well done, and offered detailed solutions.  The labs were numerous, appropriate, and clean.  Most of the twenty exercises were cumulative.  I have since gone back to review some of the concepts, and the material stands well even outside of the classroom.
    This course has given me a much better understanding of the bigger picture.  While I have not come from a CRM or BSP background, I have been working with webUI on a CRM 7.0 based SAP Custom Development Solution, [Fund Raising Management|http://www.sap.com/services/portfolio/customdev/brochures/index.epx] for about half a year.  So, I had at least been exposed to the workbench and some concepts over the previous six months.  This course really helped me tie some things together.
    I just wanted to share my experience with the group...
    ...Mike

    Mike,
    I'm curious to find out how did you find out that the course you took was scheduled. The reason why I'm asking is that I didn't even know that SAP even offered the course in the US, so I would have tried to attend myself if I found out about in advance.
    Glad to see you recommended the course.  There isn't going to be much CRM related technical content at SAP Teched in Las Vegas this year,  however there may be at least one session attending (wink-wink), that's not listed yet.  I would still recommend that CRM development folks still attend teched, because there is plenty of great technical content that we can use regardless.
    Take care,
    Stephen

    Some of the planning functions require script writing or coding. ABAper is helpful in creating such codes.
    In our scenario, ABAPers created the conversion/ transformation as per mapping prepared by the Functional Consultant.
    The functional / business users do upload and download of data (imports and exports) wherever required.

  • Role Menu for ESS (WDA) in SAP NWBC

    Dear experts,
    I am implementing ESS&MSS using SAP NWBC. For this use the following documentation:
    Configuration of the Role Menu for ESS (WDA) in SAP NWBC - SAP Documentation
    SAP delivers the composite role SAP_EMPLOYEE_ESS_WDA_2.
    1. Call up transaction PFCG and create or copy your customer-specific role based on the standard shipped composite role for ESS (WDA), SAP_EMPLOYEE_ESS_WDA_2 in the customer name space (Z_*.
    I have copied this role with the singles roles
    My first question: Should modify my composite role for add a new folder that content two applications WDA customer or this should do it in the single role ? How Can do it?
    My second question:
    What I dont can display the folder in top screen "Employee Self-Service"---"Employee Self-Service XX"---"Employee Self-Service2"(See Image leff)
    Thanks

    Hi Armin,
    For NWBC you must place transactions under the second folder down (or at least this is how its works for NWBC for ERP roles). Standard NWBC roles have 'Role menu' as top folder and then (generally) one main folder under that - like 'Purchasing'. Transactions should go under this folder or under subsequent sub-folder.
    There are additional parameters using right click 'Details for Net Weaver Business Client' under PFCG also - but assume your documentation has explained this to you.

    Craig

  • Help with Role Attribute config in ERM in SAP GRC AC 5.3

    Hello, 
    I have a doubt.
    We are configuring the Role Attributes of the ERM in SAP GRC AC 5.3.
    Where can I get the Business Process & sub-process of a SAP ECC 5.0, in witch Tcode?
    An in the part of u201CProject/Releaseu201D where can I get this element from SAP ECC 5.0?
    Thank you in advance.
    Best regards.
    Pablo Mortera.

    Pablo,
       You won't be able to get BP, SBP and Project/Release information from any Tcode. Whenever security admin creates a role, they assign the role to a Business process, functional area etc. This information comes from Business.
    Project/Release field is used to identify the project name for which this role is being created/maintained.
    These are role attributes which help in role documenation so business needs to decide about the association.

    I have answer for this query which is answered on other threads.
    The role of informatica and cognos in the SAP is as same as like other ETL tools
    and BAPI is nothing but Business Application Programming Interface which acts as a

  • Technical difference between SAP enjoy transaction and Old transaction

    Can some one detail out technical differences betwwen SAP enjoy transaction ( like ME21N) and normal old transaction( like ME21). Specially I want to know the difference between user exits for two transaction .

    First the user exits will be the same, the reason is that you must get the same result whether you use the ME21 or the ME21N.   The difference is the UI, or user interface, the enjoy transaction leverages the new control framework which was introduced in 4.6.  These controls include  tree controls, alv grid controls, docking controls, picture controls, etc.  All which can be found in the ME21N.   The ME21 transaction uses the classic dynpro technology without using the control framework.

  • SAPJSF user role - does it have to be SAP delivered name ?

    Hi Folks,
    Security question - We are upgrading to EP 7.0 . The SAPJSF user ( in ABAP system) has the role SAP_BC_JSF_COMMUNICATION_RO.
    Does the Portal need this exact named role ? If so ..can it be changed in the
    Portal end ?
    Our policy with roles is not to use the SAP delivered - so we copy and change
    to our standard . Will the portal recognize a different role on the SAPJSF user.
    This note got me thinking on this  908911 
    Thanks for input !   Dan

    Ah, yes. It does read the role. It displays this role in the UME user interfaces as a group to which users are assigned. You can then assign portal roles to this "group."
    See the picture in this document:

  • Role of a CRM  Technical consultant in SAP C4C and CRM on HANA

    Hi,
    What would be the role of a CRM Technical consultant in the following.
    SAP C4C
    SAP S4/HANA
    SAP CRM on HANA
    Thanks & Regards
    Sunil

    Sunil,
    I have got privileged of working on some C4C assignments & as far as my vision goes. A CRM Technical consultant is an integral part of any C4C/implementation or AMS environment.
    C4C has a real time integration/initial migration and a day to day basis data flow possible from Backend SAP CRM system. At Backend CRM, XIF adapter is tapped extensively to leverage these functionalities & as a CRM consultant it is not tough to adapt to the Cloud environment of C4C as well but Yes the UI technology has changed as well the view layouts.
    Thanks,
    Ravi
