ABAPer role in upgrade project

Hi,
Please let me know the ABAPer role with upgrade project. When Std programs updated by support packs what are the responsibility of ABAPers?
Thanks,
Praneeth

Hi,
Automatic- It means that there will be a green icon. You will have to just click it and it is done.
This is because the changes to the SAP Object have been done either via SNOTE for some note application or you have used the modification assistant. So SAP does not have any problem in determining the changes. So the adjustment is automatic.
Semi-Automatic - In this case there will be a yellow icon. This means that you have to make some manual adjustments. This is because SAP considers that the adjustments are proper but still there is some discrepancy.Probably this is because you have made some note changes and additionally inserted some comments like begin of changes by xxxx on yyyyy for note zzzzz.
So in this case SAP will give you a split screen editor in whihc your existing code and the one coming from support pack will come. So you have to adjust accordingly.
Manual Adjustment - In this case there will be a red icon. This means that you have to make the chnages manually. This is because SAP finds a lot of discrepancy in your program and the one coming via support pack. The reason can be either the earlier note was incorrectly applied or you have added your own code for some custom requirment. So again SAP gives you the split screen editor to make the adjustments.
Your assumptions about Reset to Original and Adopt Modifications are correct.
I hope it solves your queries.

SAP Implementation:
SAP Implementation is the whole of processes that defines a complete method to
implement SAP software in an organization. It is based on best practices and case studies from various literature sources and presents a collection of processes and products that make up a complete implementation method to allow any organization to plan and execute the implementation of SAP (ERP) software. The SAP implementation process is made up out of four main phases, i.e. the project preparation where a vision of the future-state of the SAP solution is being created, a sizing and blueprinting phase where the solution stack is created and training is being performed, a functional development phase and finally a final preparation phase, when the last tests are being performed before the actual go live.
ABAP Developer Role is to prepare the Technical Specification (based on a Functional Specification given by a Functional Consultant), build the code, Review the code and finally to prepare the Unit Test Cases. Sometimes ABAPer may be asked to do a technical research for an optimal solution.
SAP Support:
After a go live, the application needs a maintenance/support to resolve the issues/tickets raised by the users when using the application. Ticket is like a request for changes/bug fixing or a request for a new ABAP Developer Role includes bug fixing/change the existing code due to new requirements/build a new code etc.
SAP Upgrade:
SAP Upgrade is nothing but upgrading the software with a superior version which has got more advantages when compared to the earlier version.
ABAP Developer Role is to go through transactions SPAU/SPDD to compare the old and new version of the change and finally need to activate the relevant one. Some times might need to work on SAP notes too.

Re: Roles of ABAPER in implementation project

HI experts,
What s the Roles of ABAPER in implementation project?and responsibilities in support project?

IMPLEMENTATION :This is project in which we implement sap for a company from scratch right from creating tables and data for the first time..writing code for the first time etc.
SUPPORT : this is the kind of project where SAP has been already implemented but due to some additional business requirement or any thing like small problems in general they hire a team who work for them to solve the small issues.its also called issue based project.
It depends on the Volume of the company and how many company codes and Plants it have and for how many it has to be implemented
There are different types of Projects in SAP:
1. Implementation
Customer wants to install SAP/Include different modules of SAP viz. MM/SD/FI/CO/PP etc for the first time.Previously he might be using some legacy system in his orgn. This is implementation project. Here one needs to integrate several modules, migrate data from Legacy system to SAP system. Need to prepare interfaces/RFC's to interact with 3rd party systems.
Most of the company's follow ASAP methodology for the Implementation projects
there are 5 stages in the ASAP methodology
they are
1. Project Initial Preparation
2.Business Blueprint
3.Realization
4/ Final Preparation
5.Golive And Support
ABAP work mostly starts in the Blue print ending stage or in the realization stage
2. Support
Customer has already installed SAP & wants to give the work of maintaining those systems. This is support project
There is no phases in it. Just receive the tickets, solve and send back to client.
3. Upgrade
Customer has SAP Version 4.6b and wants to update his version i.e. wants to go to Version 4.7. This is upgrade project
4. Rollouts
Customer has upgraded his version & wants to rollout country specific changes.
This is rollout project
Say a company is having branches in 3 to 4 countries.
In One country they have already implemented SAP
IF they wants to implement the same SAP in other countries of their branches they will simply follow the same SAP implementation policy (Rollout) how they have done for the first country just by changing the country specific settings and configurations.

Pavan

Hi,
ABAPer is required after installation and business study by functional consultant...
In case of upgrade project, ABAPer is required during upgrade (Basis activity) itself in SPAU and SPDD step.
Otherwise, ABAPer has following role in their area:
1. Business study in brief. (To resolve simple issue and to understand logic)
2. Coding for User exits / enhancements to co-operate with functional consultant.
3. Custom reports / Program developement (Normally print programs and some analytical reports)
4. Upload program implementation thru' BDC / BAPI / LSMW
etc.
5. Interface developement if required. (in case of legacy system integration projects)
These are the major tasks of ABAPer in implementation project.
Activities that form the SAP implementation process are:
1. Project Preparation
2. Sizing and blue printing

Authorization Role Practice in Implementation Project

Gurus,
Okay, I've been implementing SAP R/3 for around 5 implementation cycles, before realizing my method for creating role may be outdated. I need your advice regarding this.
Here's my common scenario on every implementation project in realization phase:
1) Functional Consultants hand over their authorization matrix to me
The matrix will be the role name to created, along with its transaction code and authorization object.
There's also user assignment to each role.
2) I created the role in PFCG.
Reference, single, composite role. Anything you can build in it.
3) Map the SAP user to appropriate role
Now here's the interesting part.
Users will then be given their own SAP User on UAT phase.
When they try to do transactions, almost every time, every one of them'll stumble upon "No authorization" error.
What I do is, check their SU53 object, add corresponding object, then let them test again whether it fixes the error.
The authorization matrix given by consultants will not have every needed auth. objects.
It can't be helped. You can't also just put the Full Authorization (*) to object you don't familiar with.
How do you usually do this?
Any helpful tools?
Thanks for help.
Regards,

Hi,
Generally role matrxi should contains every info what eve they needed to create the Role for the functional folks.
in you case there is some missing things that is interrupting you so better you can focus on Standard SAP roles and study that roles properly before you creating any Customizatio roles.
so that you will get an idea what are all the objects you have to use to create MM roles and also what are all the objects you have to use to create SD roles etc etc....
so please try to read the Standard role first before creating the custmoiztion roles.

Role of a Functional Consultant in ESS/MSS in a implementation project

Dear Guru's,
Please help me understand what is the role of a Functional Consultant in ESS/MSS in a implementation project. would be great if any documentation is available. i have building blocks and other stuff which i got from this network, but iam confused looking at them, most of them talk about technical stuff. please give me a functional insight of a Functional Consultant in ESS/MSS.
Thanks,
vinay

hi
the link above mentions the in general role of a functional consultant. But for Ess/Mss , First understand that the technical aspects are there as it would be for any other HCM module . Functional aspect comes into picture to show the functionality to the end user and also to modify the same as per business needs. Sap has given certain functionality which is common in case of few countries and common to the HR world in general. As a functional consultant your role would be to demonstrate and configure the needed functionality to the business.
A very simple example would be , talking about the who's who functionality. The output you see can be altered according to business needs by means of authoirization or customizing the columns which appear on the ouptut (e.g Change the columns as per business needs)
Hope this simple words make your doubt clear.

Role of a Security Consultant in an SAP implementation Project

Hi All,
What is the role of a Security Consultant in an SAP implementation Project and the stages in which he is involved?

Hello Mohammed,
The role of a Security consultant in any SAP product implementation (not just GRC) is wide enough and it's hard for anyone to sum up on a single forum post. Still I can give you some pointers.
Security consultants come from different backgrounds, some from networking, database administration, infrastructure and even development like me. They contribute enormously to any product implementation from scratch (landscape design) to go-live (and continuous maintenance) so they are active on every phase of the implementation.
Following are some of the activities they may perform (or participate)
-System Landscape Design (work closely with BASIS and DBAs)
-Check Infrastructure feasibility from security perspective (For Portals exposed to internet or extranet work closely with network providers for firewall security, VPS etc.)
-Propose security guidelines, access policies, disaster recovery plan, business continuity roadmap (work closely with information security consultants and internal auditors or risk management teams)
- Implement SAP solution specific Security measures (involves almost every SAP solution) for example: SAP R/3 security, GRC, BW/BI, HR, FI, Portal security etc.
- participate in application integration for example: LDAP, IDM, SAP UME, shared directories etc (User master records security is on high priority).
- Check for any possible backdoor access vulnerabilities (ex: open RFCs, function modules like ping_rfc), and it involves almost all SAP solutions and there are special procedures to analyze such vulnerabilities.
there are many such activities that a security consultant perform on day to day basis. Please do not interprete the above mentioned activities (entirely) as a criteria for any security consultant profile. There are many many possibilities for a security consultants to work from pen testing to SoD violation remediation. That's why I said it's not easy to sum up security.
Always remember, Security and GRC are two sides of a coin they work together. however GRC is more of a combination of policy, regulation, events and involves management participation whereas security is a purely technical practice.
You may also be interested to know what it takes to become a forensic security specialist. Take a quick look at [http://amudee.com/?p=378|http://amudee.com/?p=378]
