Frustrated. Need Advice on SAP Security Implementation!!!

I'm very frustrated with my latest project and I would really appreciate your feedback.
I recently joined a company that's implementing SAP. They are already in the realization phase and will soon enter the final preparation stage. I was brought in to implement SAP Security. I was provided with a compiled list of roles and tcodes based on the blueprints from the teams and this was my starting point.
I wanted to do a presentation with the teams so that we all know what my expectations/requirements are from them and vice versa. In preparation for this, I gathered their processes from their blueprints. I wanted them to break each processes into detailed activities/tasks/functions. From there, they can identify the tcodes and then the roles. I also wanted to do this approach because the company is following SOX regulations. I showed this to my team lead and the PM and the PM adviced me not to go with this strategy because there would be too much work involved. I wanted this approach because I also wanted to do the SOD but I was told not to do it because it would only confused them. He just wanted to work on polishing the list of roles and tcodes.
Some teams leads are all experienced people while other teams are not because they are working with an employee from the company. Kinda like a partnership, 1 is a consultant while the other is a team lead from the company. Which I believe is normal practice so that there is knowledge transfer.
So I had my presentation and I found out that most of the team leads have not seen this compilation of roles and tcodes. I also found out that even though they are already in the realization stage, majority of the teams have no idea what roles to give nor do they know who to give it to. I also asked for the org chart from the HR team but I was told that they still don't have it and cannot give it to me. They even asked me why I need it. They also informed me that HR structural authorizations are not going to be implemented and yet nobody can give me a damn good reason why. All they tell me is that because they don't need it.
So as you can see, I'm not getting the cooperation/support I need to be able to do my job properly. How can I when every strategy I wanted to do is being turned down? What should I do? Really need your advice on how to proceed. Your inputs are highly appreciated.
Thanks in advance!

Julius, Auke and Alex,
Im sure everyone would agree that the advice you guys offer is more than valuable. Thank you for that.
I myself have been encountering the same situation that Litz is facing except for that in my case the Management is very co-operative (and trust me, this helps a lot). My problem is that neither me nor my Management know what access needs to be given to Consultants or IT Staff after GoLive or even now.The Functional Consultants "don't have the time" to tell me what Tcodes they need access to, and they insist that they should have sap_all, and I have no idea what access they SHOULD have.
I was going to post another thread for my questions but I guess there are already too many which address the same issue. These threads did give me a good insight on how SAP Security should be managed, and I was able to get some of it chalked out. I have a few questions though, which I wasn't too sure about even after reading through the countless threads.
Most consultants in my company had sap_all in QA since no one knew what they should be have and often had we noticed that they would be playing with the Basis Tcodes. Now knowing what they have been doing in QA, I do not want to give them sap_all in Prod (although they insisted) at any cost. So, I made a role (z:sap_all), copied sap_all, disabled Basis Tcodes and assigned it to them. Then I kept adding Tcodes one by one on request basis.
We haven't gone Live (they say that we are still in testing phase since the final cutover is due in the next few weeks) yet and I know that this cannot work after Go-Live since z:sap_all has Tcodes like SE38, AL11, SM50 etc in Prod. They say that they need these to do processing and it is okay to give it to them since we haven't gone live. I would also like to mention that my company is trying to get SOX compliant and needs these things in place.
I have been entrusted a BIG responsiblity and am trying my best to live up to the expectations and I am relying yon you guys to help me out.All the Business Roles are in place, and its just the IT roles that I'm worried about.
So, my questions are
1. Until how long is it okay for Functional Consultants to have this kind of access in Prod ?
2. After we Go-Live, would a display only role for all functional Tcodes suffice for them ? Or should they have Basis Tcodes too ? If yes, which ones (Im asking this because I know that it should be minimal)
3. I have been to told to create an "IT-Support role" by the Manager of the Implementation Partner for after GoLive. But he has no idea what T-codes it should have or what it does. Any ideas on this ?
4. I have read about the "firefighting role". Im guessing that the IT Support Role is the same as this. But what exactly does the firefighting role have? And in what situations is it assigned?
5. How important is the period before the final Cutover important as far as SOX compliance goes?
A little enlightenment on the common issues encountered after Go Live would also help me assess the situation a lot better.
I hope Im not asking too much of your time here. Thank you again guys !! Appreciate it !

How Benefits is maintained where SAP HR Benefits not implemented?

Hello folks,
Just wondering how Benefits / Benefits config is maintained where SAP HR Benefits is not implemented. How this works out in SAP and out side SAP i.e. outsourcing etc.. Please explain.
Thanks a ton..
JEss..

If your client has decided to outsource Benefits admin to a third party, you will most probably have to :
1. Send employee status files with the data stored in PA. Ex Active, Termed, DOB, Dependents etc..... The spec for this will be provided by the 3rd party.
2. Open Enrollment will be handled via online or mail.
3. All queries regarding benefits will be handled by the 3rd party unless it is a master data issue.
Depending on the size of the org, you may want to promote using SAP for benefits as it had many advantages.
thanks,
Tariq Khan

Global SAP HR Implementation

Hello Forum,
I am in a situation of planning implementation strategy for Global SAP HR implementation across 30 counties.
Process to be implemented
1. Performanace management
2. Hiring and firing
3. Payroll
4. Manage Employee Info.
5. Recruting
6. ESS
7. MSS
etc.
I am wondering if some one can reply following queries with above inputs
1. The cutover approach and principles
2. The data conversion sequence
3. List the interim processes required
4. Expected resources to support implementation
Thanks in advance.
Sanjay

Hi,
I hv worked with World's largest SAP HCM implementaion.
Certain points from my side..
1.The cutover approach and principles
Best is to start with a country where less number of population.(For first go live)
Maintain separate testing team for SIT also.
Adhere to global implementation strategies and unique terminologies in all countries (Config part)
2. The data conversion sequence
Maintain a separate team for data conversion and data cleansing should be the job of client. You can use different methods for uploading data for different countries (Eg: only for US Specific we have DTT tool etc.)
3. List the interim processes required
4. Expected resources to support implementation
Respect on the implementation approach.
Up to how many countries and you are planning to go live on the same date (Parallel implementation)?
Or you are planning as a sequence of rollouts etc.
Regards
Thomas.

How to carry forward any open documents in a new SAP B1 Implementation

Hi,
I want to know what are the best practices to record any open documents during a fresh SAP B1 implementation.
The client has an existing running business and may be implementing SAP B1 at the start of the financial year or during the middle of the financial year.
How do I enter the open documents as on the go-live date; documents like open Purchase Orders, open Sales Orders, open GRPO, open Deliveries, etc.
What are the multiple approaches / alternatives to evaluate and what are the best practices?
Note: I am not talking merely about the GL or Inventory Opening Balances, but the entire set of open documents!
Thanks.

1. When it comes to documents that post to the G/L you want those posted the day you go live as this is part of your opening balance. This would be for you A/R and A/P Invoices. Just make sure the Due Dates are correct and the G/L account is your Opening Balance account. Why? So you can run a trial balance for that day. So in your case I would either do 1-SEP-2014 or 31-Aug-2014. Again I prefer to enter them in as the day before go live so that I can easily run a Trial Balance on my opening transactions. I have yet to have the opening balance balance out on these imports.
2. I would go with the open items on the PO. Why? Less work and still accomplishes the need for open items. In all cases add the original document # from the legacy system in the remarks so you can always find the original.
3. Once again, I would go with only the open balance. Why? It is less work and you can always record any audit remarks in the remarks section of the document. Remember the goal is to import your opening balance. You do not want to step into historical data, it is not easy and takes a long time. So unless the customer is paying for it, this can become a money loser. If analysis is need on historical data, then they have their legacy system to look at.
4. The whole reason for the Service Type invoices is purely for the opening balance of the Accounts Receivable and Accounts Payable opening balances. The document total should be the total for the amount that is owed as this is your opening balance for the A/R and A/P accounts along with the customers and vendors sub ledger.
5. Yes. It can be done through the DTW. I haven't tried the new features on the Inventory Counting, but I believe they have added an import feature. Either way should work as long as you get the inventory in the correct places and the inventory accounts to the correct value.
Remember, opening balances are meant to be the values of the legacy system as a snapshot in time. This means that inventory is correct and in the correct place and most importantly the accounts are correct. The reason for the Opening Balance account is as an offset account to the journal entries you create for importing these opening documents. In the end, the Opening Balance account should be 0 if the legacy system is balance.

Mygrating Asset GL Balances from Legacy to SAP

Hello Gurus,
We are Migrating GL balances from legacy system to SAP system.
I would like to know whether there is any other transaction code other than OASV for fixed assets GL migration from Legacy to SAP system. Can we use F-02 transaction code for uploading Asset Balances from Legacy to SAP.
Kindly advice as we have already started Migration process.
Thanks and regards,
Vinayak

I have only used transaction code OASV to migrate asset balances.
Is there a particular reason you don't want to use OASV and use F-02 instead?
Thanks,
Tammy

SAP HR Implementation complexity

Hi,
Could some tell me what are difficulties or complexities involved in SAP HR implementation and at what stage we may face the major issue.
And also on what basis we personal area , subreas, employee groups and subroups are formed in blue print.
I mean how we finalize the enterprise and personal structure in blue print.
And also once implemented what will be handover activities.
Many Thanks
Chinni

Hi,
As you know that we have ASAP Methodology...
Each and every phase we find difficulties. Below are few examples
Phase I : Mostly consultants are not going to participate here.
Phase II : 1/ In AS-IS --> you find many problems like, we need to understand the client Business and his ongoing process. It differ from each and every client
2/ Blue Print --> Here we need to map the client requirement to SAP (Its really a big task). Here we need to have workshops with end users.
Phase III : Configuration --> Some times we may think that is not a big issue.. but we will not be getting the results.. we need to break our heads.
Phase IV : We need to test and need to prepare the Test Scenarios and Test Cases.. again its an other big task
Phase V : Support and maintenance is an other part.
Once the AS-IS is completed, then we have to decide on what criterias and functionalities we have to define our Per Areas, PSA, EE Grouping and EE sub grouping. Before AS-IS we cant define those.
Hope you got your questions clarified.
Good Luck...!

Non-SAP JPA implementation

Hello, experts!
I have an WD application that uses EJB model. All works fine, but I want to change SAP JPA implementation to Hibernate JPA implementation.
This is my persistence.xml
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<persistence version="1.0" xmlns="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/persistence" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:schemaLocation="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/persistence http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/persistence/persistence_1_0.xsd">
     <persistence-unit name="test" transaction-type="JTA">
     <provider>org.hibernate.ejb.HibernatePersistence</provider>
     <jta-data-source>msDS</jta-data-source>
     <properties>
          <property name="hibernate.dialect" value="org.hibernate.dialect.SQLServerDialect"/>
     </properties>
     </persistence-unit>
</persistence>
I have got this exception after substituting JPA implementations : org.hibernate.HibernateException: The chosen transaction strategy requires access to the JTA TransactionManager
I have read on different forums that this exception means that container cant get a transaction. But I want to use "transaction-type="JTA", not "manual" transactions.
Thanks for any reply.

Are you sure that your DB (dialect) is SQL Server?
If yes, then try adding the following property to your persistence.xml
<property name="hibernate.transaction.manager_lookup_class"
value="test.persistence.SAPCETransactionManagerLookup"/>
where SAPCETransactionManagerLookup is
package test.persistence;
import org.hibernate.transaction.JNDITransactionManagerLookup;
public class SAPCETransactionManagerLookup extends
                JNDITransactionManagerLookup {
        @Override
        protected String getName() {
                return "TransactionManager";
        public String getUserTransactionName() {
                return "UserTransaction";
You may also try adding another property along with the above one, if the aforementioned property doesn't work.
<property name="hibernate.transaction.factory_class"
value="org.hibernate.transaction.JTATransactionFactory"/>
