Business Process Consolidation 7.5 implementation

Experts,
I am going to implement BPC 7.5 release which is very new from SAP. I have going to install on our existing EHP1 BI box. I am very relatively new to this. I need some basic strategy to start the installation. So I need some inputs
1. Do I need a windows box for this
2. can I install on existing EHP1 BI box
please Let us know. your help will be appreciated
Many Thanks,
Dash

Hi,
If you have access to SMP then you can go through the installation guide. All the steps are clearly explained.
You need windows box to install the .NET server. You can either go with Windows server 2003 or Windows server 2008.
Yes you can install on the existing EhP1 BI box, but just make sure that you are on min SP05 or higher SP level.
Hope this helps.
Thanks.

Who gives the list that contains which business process is to be implemente

hi ,good morning to all
i have a question
that is how a solution consultant comes to know that which business process/which business process step is to be implemented in particular scenario? (for eg nw ep)

The Business process represents the various activities [processes] involved in attaining a business goal.
For example,in a procurement scenerio,
1] The goal is procurement.In system we have to map this thro'Transaction code/s.
2] This [ procurement] process involve various activities such as [a] getting indent from the user dept getting financial approval [specific /standing] [c] floating the tender /RFPs etc [d] getting the quote from the vendors [e]finalizing the vendor [f] placing the purchase order [g] recieving and inspecting the goods pay the vendor.
Like this,for every scenerio/process we have the relevant activities.
Before SAP implementation the client performs the Business process Re Engineering [BPR] and correctly defines the various process/s and the relevant activities.Before implementation the cosultant performs a detailed discussion with the user group and obtains process flow chart and other relevant details.Thus the detail_ gathering is a culmination of interactive discussions with the client,the info.being provided by the client by means of standard documents,flow-charts etc,the experience and judgenment of the consultant.
This gives an idea about the whole scenerio.
Having known this,we can map in to the system using a T/code[relevant to each activity-say automatic paymentT/code.F110] and interpret the whole process in terms of T-codes.
The users test this using unit test and the integration test [ MM-FI interface using Account determination, for example] and verifies if the process has been mapped in full and correctly.The test once passed shows that you have configured adequately Vis A Vis the business requirements.
This is how the process in full is understood [by the consultant] and mapped in to SAP.
Hope this helps.
Regards,
Ramesh.

Regarding Oracle Business Process Manager and WS-Security

Hi All,
Actually I like to invoke couple of secure services running on seperate
server runnnig JWSDP.These services are using WS-security,so I am just
wondering if it possible to call these webservices through Oracle
Business Process Manager.
As our secure services are using JWSDP so thats the reason we prefer to
use the BPEL engine which deployed on top of JWSDP so that We dont
have to confront with compatable issues among different toolkits.
So I am just wondering do you think that Oracle business process manager
ws-secuirity implementation can use the JWSDP implementation i.e
xws-security implementation,in otherwords is it possible to use JWSDP
with Oracle business process manager for using the ws-security?Thanks.
I would appreciate your help.
Kashif

yes we do native in Oracle BPEL PM (username token) - as explained here
http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/ias/bpel/documents/bpel_admin_10.1.3.1.0.pdf page 30
for more sophisticated ws sec stuff, pls use Oracle Webservice Manager

Help with Business Process

I am a newbie to XI world and am trying to implement the following. Create a scenario where a HTTP client calls a BAPI (creating a PO) synchronously, wish it would have been the end :). There 3 steps in PO creation, one is to create from one company code to another and create the same quantity and material to a vendor and acknowledge to the web client about the PO creation status.
Since the above is a sequence and a process, I am assuming I have to use BPM capability of XI. If answer is yes, then any business process has to be implemented through BPM, am I right in concluding this?
Am more looking at direction than any particular answers, if anyone can guide me I will find my way out.
Thanks in advance for any suggestions
Sunil Achyut

Moorthy
Thanks for your quick reply. But if I wrap all my logic in BAPI then there it would become a real big one and moreover there is a sequence in my process:
1) Create a PO from company code A to company code B
2) Create a PO from company code B to vendor
3) On the return an shipping notice would trigger creating a delivery and doing a goods receipt and goods issue for the two PO's created.
Since the above is a business process I was thinking it would be better if I use BPM instead of using a single BAPI for everything. Am I incorrect in my thinking?

Establishing current business process baseline in Solution Manager

Hello Guru,
We had implemented ECC 5.0 a year ago.
We had used business blueprint SOLAR01, SOLAR02, to document some of the business processes. We found ourself currently have an incompleted business process blueprint.
We want to use Solution Manager to manage the ECC 6.0 upgrade, how do we establish the current business process baseline?
Is there a tool that will browse through ECC 5.0, and create business process map of what the current business processes that have been implemented, and the configuration objects that have been customized?
Thanks in Advance,
Anny

Hi Anny,
I am afraid there isn't a tool that can help retrospectively build SOLAR01 or SOLAR02 related structure and contents.
The only three possible areas for exploration I can suggest for you to investigate further, are:
(1) Use of Reverse Business Engineer (RBE)
(2) Use of SAP TAO to at least build Testing scope retrospectively
(3) Seek any views from IDS-Scheer on whether they have any plug ins for ARIS that can do a retrospective process mapping
Best regards,
Srini

Business process reengineering in SAP?

Gurus,
what is business process reengineering in SAP?
pls elaborate with one example?

What is Business Process Re-engineering (BPR)?
Business Process Re-engineering simply implies eliminating tasks that does not add value to a business process while reorganization the value adding tasks. It can also be perceived as a restructuring of redundant dependent tasks or work order. It involves a re-thinking and consequently a re-moulding. In appreciating this concept, it is expedient to view a process as a "chain of tasks". The truth is that in a typical business process, you can have some redundant tasks that if not present does not really have any impact. Such tasks can be eliminated thus streamlining business process.
During ERP implementation, before a business process can be re-engineered, excellent understanding of the defective process is key. This is why it is important to first carry out a critical and objective business process definition and analysis before system design. At this juncture, it is important to state that when restructuring a business process, adherence to best practices is encouraged. This allows the client to be able to leverage the redefined business process externally and not only internally.
For business process reengineering to be successful and consequently, ERP implementation, the buy-in of the end users must be achieved. Often times, I've heard people say "this is how we have been doing it and we like it that way". It is important to convince the process owners why a re-engineering is needed. And the only way to do this is to make the user uncomfortable with his hitherto work methodology. As a matter of fact, setting up of an in-house restructuring team will help to foster users conviction within the organization. The members of the team should cut across all process owners.
Conclusively, the benefits of BPR are enormous. They include the following, but not limited to
1. Business process is streamlined.
2. Business process is optimized and more efficient.
3. Strict controls can be enforced and monitored.
4. Best practices can be adhered to.
5. Time and cost saving as a result of eliminated redundant tasks.

indranil

Time effort to implement Business Process Monitoring

hi,
if one company want to utilize Business Process Monitoring and implement it:
1). what are the Prerequisite
2). if the Prerequisite are met and we come to BPMon part how long it would take to implement one Scenario.
3). any document or links or hints for BPMon Best Practice?
Regards

Hi Volker,
This comment was part of document - Business Process Monitoring Set-up and User Guideline for Release ST 4.0 and ST-SER 700_2007_1.
3 Prerequisites for Business Process Monitoring
Business Process Monitoring is not just activated by pressing a button in the SAP Solution Manager and
therefore the configuration of Business Process Monitoring is currently not intended as a customer selfservice.
Instead, the procedure to set up Business Process Monitoring in the SAP Solution Manager is rather
realized by the delivery of the SAP Solution Management Optimization (SMO) Service for Business
Process Management due to the complex nature of the overall configuration of Business Process Monitoring.
However, it is possible (but not recommended) for customers to configure Business Process Monitoring by
themselves without any guidance of SAP.
Thanks.

Solution Directory - How to lock a business process for a implement project

We have Solution Directory assigned to a maintenance project and I understand the checkout/checkin process and how it locks the business process in the Solution. What is the best practice when you are starting a new IMPLEMENTATION project that will impact existing business processes that are in the Solution? I know that I can copy from the solution to build the new project, but it doesnu2019t lock the BP from the solution.
I have a new Implementation project, that i want to checkout/pull existing business processes for the Solution Directory.
*How can these Business Processes be "locked" in Solution Directory as they are with a Maintenance project?*

Kelly,
You would use the maintenance project to make daily modifications.
Consider the case of a O2C business scenario. You need to almost make daily configs etc, which get pushed through, such things will go into a maintenance project.
But if you plan to enhance O2C with a CRM front end or include a better planning solution or TPM or something, then you are looking at an implementation project.
Rule of thumb. Short Scale changes : Maintenance Project, Long term/major enhancements : Implementation Projects.
Also In this case to speak about the lock down. Well the Solution Directory kind of takes care of that for you.
I am assuming that you have a solution populated with business processes. So now if you want to enhance it with a new functionality, you would use an implementation project. So when you define the implementation project, and then navigate to Solar01, and try to add business scenarios , ensure that on the Structure tab you select the Solution as the source. This ensures you are copying content from your current, updated, productive solution. Once you do that, the implementation continues on its track, whilst daily support processes are managed with the check-in / check-out functionality of the Solution and the Maintenance Project.
You technically do not need to lock the business processes down, since the Compare and Adjust functionality of a solution will help you identify the deltas between the Solution and the implementation project and you can always make those adjustments post go-live and thus just update the Solution at one shot. Also remember that with SolMan 7.1 the Compare and Adjust functions can be used with Template, Implementation and Solutions in any permutation-combination.
Hope this helps.
Plz let me know if you need any additional information
Cheers!!

Implementions of Business Processes in SAP

Hi,
A business process is a series of steps that is triggered by some action and produces some outcome.
Business processes can be implemented in many ways. For example-
Using ABAP programs (Transactions)
Using a workflow, which in turn use Business Objects
1) How can we know which Business Process is implemented using which method?
For example, if we consider a purchase order being placed and it triggers a business process, how can we the way (ABAP Programs/Workflow) in the triggered business process is implemented?
2) If the business process is implemented in ABAP Programs, is it possible to reimplement it in workflow (or vice versa) with minimal effort?
3) I have a large set of questions regarding how sap business process works and I have put my thoughts in a word document. I would like some gurus to go thro it and help me. If you are willing to spend little time, please do post your email id or send an email to [email protected]
Thanks in advance.
Ananda Raja.

Greetings Anandaraja-
I'll only attempt to answer your question #1...
On a high level, I'd first start to look at SAP's Solution Maps for the different processes. Please check out:
http://www.sap.com/solutions/index.epx
Click on the business maps link. It should eventually lead you to the "Registration and Download" page for Solution Composer. --> http://www.sap.com/solutions/businessmaps/composer/index.epx
With this tool, you can discover the procurement or sales process you describe in your example.
SAP has quite a few generic enterprise solutions and 27 industry specific solutions. I'm not sure you will find a guru who knows everything SAP has to offer.
In addition you can follow this link:
<a href="https://www.sdn.sap.comhttp://www.sdn.sap.comhttp://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/sdn/developerareas/esa/esapreview">https://www.sdn.sap.comhttp://www.sdn.sap.comhttp://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/sdn/developerareas/esa/esapreview</a> found @ Solution Maps, ESA, Visual Composer, and Aris to understand how SAP is developing the new generation applications via eSOA - Enterprise Service Oriented Architecture.
It's difficult to guage what you are really looking for in your post. So I'll jump down into the application level to try to answer your message.
If you want to use the actual SAP transactions which implement PO, use transaction ME21 (or ME21N) in ERP (SAP R/3). If a system is receiving a PO, you can manually enter a Sales Order using VA01. This is specific to ERP. These Business Processes can also be managed thru our CRM, SRM, and SCM/APO products. In addition, most of these transactions can also be manipulated thru IDOC's or RFC/BAPI versus user interaction.
Hopefully this gets you pointed in the right direction.
Good Luck...

Implementing a business process with Oracle software

Hello Oracle community,
I'm new to Oracle software and would like to know which tools from Oracle I need when I want to implement a WSDL based business process. All ressources I would like to access within the scope of the process are described with WSDL and I would like to model the whole process with Oracle software.
I guess that I'll need at least the JDeveloper Suite so the post is hopefully not completely off-topic in this forum.
In particular the questions are:
- Which Oracle Tool can model a business process (and can handle WSDL)
- Which Oracle Tool can implement the technical aspect of a business process (might be the same tool)
- Which Oracle Tool (Oracle 9iAS I guess) will I need to deploy & run the finished business process
- And the last question: does Oracle support BPEL?
I need this informationen for my studies at my university. I hope that someone can point me in the right direction.

Unfortunately the recently announced BPEL (Business Process Execution Language) Designer is available as an IBM Eclipse Plugin, so yes you need to be running the Eclipse IDE to be able to use the BPEL on top of Oracle Application Server (OC4J).
A Jdeveloper plugin for BPEL I guess would be available sometime next year ?

Business process bpmn implementation with services in uddi

Dear everyone,
could anyone provide me the link to the tutorial of implemenation bpmn with service in uddi?
I don't know how can i call a service, and how i implement a service in bpmn process with jdeveloper.
many thanks in advance,
sophea

Hi Sophea,
You can use service activity to invoke the service.
For exposing the BPM process as service, you can use message start activities (Receive) and service activity (Reply) to implement synchronous pattern.
Please refer Oracle&reg; Fusion Middleware Modeling and Implementation Guide for Oracle Business Process Management 11g Release 1…
Hope it helps.
Thanks

Business Process not initiated

Hello,
I have implemented a little business process that works in conjunction
with 2 other systems.
System one sends asynchronously a message to the business process, that
bp transforms the message and sends it synchronously via rfc to the
system two.
For this situation I have created a business process and a business
scenario, which are all configured properly at least according to the
checks in the integration designer.
At next I have transfered the scenario to the integration configurator
and configured the business systems. So far there was no problem in
doing so.
In the end I have 2 configured business systems, 1 business process, 2
receiver determination and 2 interface determinations and 1 receiver
agreement.
After that I have generated a proxy via sproxy in the business system 1
and called the proxy asynchronously. This call is monitored in the XI
correctly, but it is flagged as "Message scheduled (commit missing)".
Then nothing happens any more. I have checked the workflow engine
(sxmb_moni_bpe) whether something has been received, but this was not
the case. I also checked whether there are 2 identical entries for the
receiver determination.
Although the CPA cache seems to be ok at the moment according to
transaction (sxi_cache) and the information from the integration
repository, I had some problems today while creating the scenario, it
said "unable to refresh cache content" and the signals in the
repository where red. But right now, everything looks fine except the
fact, that the message from my abap proxy is not routed through
correctly.
This seems to be very strange, has somebody an idea what the status:Message scheduled (commit missing) actually means?
Thank you very much,
Oliver Budde
