"Case use" technique for SAP implementation?

Hello all,
has anyone used "case use" technique for SAP implementation? I mean for standard process, not only developing.
Any recommendation about it?
Thanks in advance and best regards,
Adolfo

It would be helpful to go through the help document of ASAP Methodology.
The following information may clarify some doubts/requirements you have.
Generating the Project IMG through ASAP:
After you have set the project scope, the next step is to generate the Project IMG. From the Business Process Master List (BPML), you can directly access the IMG activities relevant for configuring each process.
BPML: The Business Process Master List, along with the Business Blueprint, is a key result of the second phase of the Roadmap. Microsoft Excel tables contain the SAP scenarios, process groups, and processes that have been set in scope in the SAP Reference Structure, and are crucial for configuring your SAP System. In Realization, the third phase of the Roadmap, the BPML provides the basis for monitoring and steering test activities and for configuring your SAP System. It contains the titles of the structure items, and displays the status, the owner, links to documentation and links to the SAP System. Amongst other things, the BPML allows you to:
1) Set your baseline and final scope. These are used for baseline and final configuration.
2) Access the Project IMG and specific IMG activities assigned to structure items.
3) Access integration test plans, which help you carry out all required integration tests.
The Prerequisite is you have set the project scope.
Process Flow to use the Business Blueprint as a basis for configuring your SAP System:
1) Set the project scope.
2) Generate the Project IMG.
3) Generate the BPML.
4) From a specific processes in the BPML, you can go to the relevant IMG activities and make Customizing settings.

  • Planning scenarios being used for SAP implementation at Foundry?

    Hi,
    Please share information on SAP Implementation at Foundry. Which scenario is most suitable? Foundry consists of various depts like Sand division, Core Shop, Melting Shop, Moulding Line, Fettling operation etc. How we can make use of SAP to control overall rejection at Foundry. What is the configuration etc..??

    Hi,
    u can use discreate manufacturing scenoria for core manufaturing.
    My suggestion is as follows,
    1.define the finished core as core assembly.
    2. since demand of core is decided from the demand of mold, u can define core assembly as bom item of Mold(under Mold BOM header).
    3.by doing this, during the MRP, systems gives procurements proposals for core assembly if there is no stock avalibale.
    4.so we ccan create seperate production order, and we can confirm yield and rejection qty.
    5.after production u can enter the rejection qty while conforing production order.
    letme know  if u have any futher doubt..
    regards
    pradeep

  • Labels, Portrait vs. Landscape, using CR for SAP B1

    I posted this question in the CR reports forum, but was told by the moderator that since  Crystal Reports for B1 is an OEM product I need to post to the B1 forum.
    I am using Crystal Reports for SAP Business One, Version 12.1.0.892.
    I've read the info here about dealing with rotating labels, [in regular CR forum] but I still don't know how to implement it in my version. I've tried several things and I always end up with a rotated label. The Page Setup directions provided seem inconsistent. Here's what I mean.
    I need to create a 3" x 2" label. I start with a blank report.
    On Page Setup, under Page Options, there is a check mark in Dissociate Formatting Page Size and Printer Papaer Size. I leave it.
    In the drop down box, I change Letter to User Defined Size.
    Set Unit to Inches.
    Set Horizontal to 3, and Vertical to 2.
    (Orientation, which started at Portrait switches itself to Landscape. I leave it at Landscape.)
    Set all 4 Margins to 0. (I'll handle them myself in the document layout and I don't want to confuse the size issue.)
    Create test report. Report looks ok on screen. Looks ok when exported to PDF. Send to printer and it comes out sideways.
    Reopen Page Setup. According to directions in [CR] forum, I'm supposed to uncheck Dissociate option. I do that. Drop box changes to Organizer J. I try to change it back to User Defined, but that is no longer and option.
    Horizontal and Vertical have changed themselves and are grayed out.
    I change Orientation from Landscape to Portrait.
    Now my workspace on the label is 2.75"; wide, a sidewise Organizer J, apparently.
    How do I set up my Page to get a simple 3" x 2" label?
    TIA
    Solution found: Create label as 3" X 3" and only use first 2" of vertical. Orientation stays correct. On printer setup, define Label as #" x 2" and the printer fixes the overflow.

    Hello,
    Crystal Reports for B1 is an OEM product. Please post your question to the B1 forum. this was fixed in CR Patches for CR 2008 but you cannot apply those patches to your OEM build.
    Thank you

  • Time frame for SAP implementation query

    Hi guys,
    I am a university student and am currently trying to collect some information for my paper on development of ERP systems in industrial companies, particularly SAP. I'm meant to do some field research, but it is proving to be rather difficult, which is why I wanted to ask for some help from people who have experience in the implementation of the SAP system.
    What I'm looking for is the time frame that the SAP system takes to integrate into an industrial firm. Also, the scope of integration (ie how many and which modules were added on top of the core SAP system) and the number of users after the full implementation of the system.
    I don't need the name of particular companies, as I understand that that may be disclosing too much corporate information, but it would really help me if someone could give me a realistic time frame of the implementation process for SAP.
    Thank you, in advance!
    Anya

    Anya,
    Update to your queries:
    size of the company that this SAP implementation took place at:
    Answer : In terms of revenue $200 million +
    Interms of employees 6000+
    HR module in particular - whether it can be fully implemented separately and how long would it take?
    Answer:
    Definately, it can be fully implemeted and other modules may not be used
    Time period - 3+ months as Business packages are available in SAP.

    Ganga

  • SAP Roles and Access for SAP Implementation team members

    Hi,
    Is it correct practice to give SAP_ALL role access for all SAP Implementation team members in Dev and QA?
    If not, what is the correct practice?
    Kindly let me know

    Madhu,
    It is NOT correct practice to give anyone SAP_ALL in any of the systems; not DEV, not QAS, and certainly not PRD. However, many implementation teams (and particularly consultants from SIs) insist that they cannot possibly do their jobs without it. This is completely incorrect as there are specific roles for them to use for that purpose. The only circumstance where it could be justified is if you require a special "firefighter" role - and even then, I would still be a bit doubtful.
    You should also consider that once you have given someone SAP_ALL, they will fight tooth and nail to keep it. It also means that they probably are not testing the user roles correctly. Most of those that insist they need it simply do not understand the security issues and probably don't care.
    Just think; if they have access to do soemthing that they shouldn't and then cause a big problem, are they the ones that will have to fix it or are they going to expect you to do it? If they expect you to clear up after them, then you have the right to insist on restricting their access to cause issues in the first place.
    But I know just how demanding they can be....
    Best of luck

  • Using SUDO for SAP Administration

    Hi,
    We have the need for security reasons to implement the program SUDO for system administration of SAP and DB.
    Now, not knowing SUDO my questions are:
    Since SUDO login with a signature by name (ex. smith) I can make all administrative tasks that today, for SAP literature, must be conducted with SIDADM and ORASID directly on the systems?
    Also, if you can, there are restrictions / limits for the administration and SAP DB?
    Regards,
    Diego.

    Sudo is simply a command that let you execute commands as another user.
    As per my experience using it, it will just mean that you'll have to logon with your user and then do sudo to sidadm or orasid, that should not stop you from doing your daily tasks.
    must be conducted with SIDADM and ORASID directly on the systems?
    Certainly.
    there are restrictions / limits for the administration and SAP DB?
    I didn't get this question.
    Regards

  • IBM Common Store for SAP Implementation VS IXOS

    Hello all, great idea for a forum.
    We are currently choosing between IBM CommonStore and IXOS for our Image Repository, Document Attachment and Archiving solution.
    Our team has extensive experience with IXOS and limited experience with IBM CommonStore and IBM Content Manager.
    In a situation where 1000s of returned invoices and correspondences a day will be imaged and inserted into the repository and indexed into PS-CD we need to decide if the dollars saved in going with CommonStore will be spent getting our solution up to the integration level that is delivered with IXOS.
    Does anyone here have experience with both or has anyone gotten CommonStore working up to a full production level with QA workflows and CRM viewing enabled?
    Any experience getting CommonStore fully functional with a mass invoicing scenario?
    Any help will be appreciated.
    Greg

    Greg,
    All certified vendors that use SAP ArchiveLink would basically have the same level of integration in SAP.  It should take you no longer to implement one over the over, the sap configuration is the same.  It really comes down to the experience of the implementation team.
    The IBM CommonStore solution is SAP ArchiveLink certified and provides an enterprise wide imaging repository without the need for additional products and licensing.
    If you want to look at just the scanning front end, IBM uses a scanning front end that supports OCR from such vendors as Kofax and Captiva.  IXOS Enterprise scan can only scan and hand the images over to another OCR solution, thus scanning the same documents twice.
    I am familiar with both solutions; I was the past IXOS imaging team lead for 5 years.
    I'm not sure what you're looking for in regards to "QA workflows and CRM viewing enabled?"
    CRM is archiveLink enabled!

  • How to use JCL for SAP?

    Would you please help? I am curious why use JCL but NOT sm36/sm37?   Thanks!

    Linda,
    Could you perhaps elaborate a little please?
    There are many cases where something must run on the database server itself, and since by definition that is z/OS for DB2 z/OS, JCL is submitted for those tasks. Several tasks such as "Update data for transaction DB02" in the DBA calendar will schedule an SAP batch job (which can be viewed in SM37). The SAP batch jobs in turn use the JCL submission service to perform a task on z/OS.

  • Problem with using DTW for SAP BO PL11

    Hello, experts!
    I'm using SAP B1 8.8 PL 11, Microsoft SQL Server 2008 Standard Edition.
    I have a script, which put data for Item Master Data import into temporary table, after that I want to transfer this data via DTW into SAP B1 database.
    There are some new rules for DTW beginning from PL 10; I've adapted my script - removed RecordKey and replaced it with ParentKey everywhere in child tables.
    But when I try to use DTW with ODBC connection, and press Test in form, where query should been specified, in result table values for first column are spreaded for the second one: first column ItemCode and second column ItemName are equal to Item Code (http://s39.radikal.ru/i083/1009/0b/b7071404dc99.jpg). But in SQL:http://s001.radikal.ru/i195/1009/1c/3cb40e506842.jpg
    If I don't press Test and just use it, it shows me a lot of import errors like "Invalid XML Wrong value for column" and shows that Column received shifted value from neighbour column (i.e. ItemName column received value from ItemCode column).
    My table has following structure (all column names were copied from appropriate template file, bundled with DTW, saving the order):
    CREATE TABLE [dbo].[tmpsapb1_Items](
       [ItemCode] [varchar](50) NOT NULL,
       [ItemName] [varchar](60) NOT NULL,
       [ForeignName] [varchar](1) NOT NULL,
       [ItemsGroupCode] [varchar](10) NULL,
       [CustomsGroupCode] [varchar](1) NOT NULL,
       [SalesVATGroup] [varchar](2) NOT NULL,
       [BarCode] [varchar](8000) NOT NULL,
       [VatLiable] [varchar](1) NOT NULL,
       [PurchaseItem] [varchar](1) NOT NULL,
       [SalesItem] [varchar](1) NOT NULL,
       [InventoryItem] [varchar](4) NOT NULL,
       [IncomeAccount] [varchar](1) NOT NULL,
       [ExemptIncomeAccount] [varchar](1) NOT NULL,
       [ExpanseAccount] [varchar](1) NOT NULL,
       [Mainsupplier] [varchar](1) NOT NULL,
       [SupplierCatalogNo] [varchar](17) NULL,
       [DesiredInventory] [varchar](1) NOT NULL,
       [MinInventory] [varchar](1) NOT NULL,
       [Picture] [varchar](1) NOT NULL,
       [User_Text] [varchar](1) NOT NULL,
       [SerialNum] [varchar](1) NOT NULL,

    Your temporary table will be the first trouble maker. ItemCode length is 20 for example. Check the item master table structure and recreate your temporary table.
    Thanks,
    Gordon

  • Wireless Telco specifics for SAP implementation

    1) Are there any key considerations and industry specifics for a wireless telco company for the Chart of Accounts, Asset Structure, Material/Service Master and Plant Maintenance u2013 BOM?
    2) Are there any Wireless Telco industry specifics that we have to watch out for, eg. revenue recognition for prepaid cards, treatment of AUCs for Network Assets, etc.
    We are implementing SAP ECC 5.0, FI-GL, FI-AP, FI-AA, FI-AR, MM-PU, MM-IM, MM-SD, EAM-PM and EAM-PS.

    Hi Vinit
    From Pharma Perspective , the solution in SAP should have below things
    1. As Already mentioned Batch Management is Key. I would like to add along with batch management , the batch release process along with certificates related to Batches plays a key role.
    2. Generally in pharma we have Make to order process , so it would be good to know about standard MTO flow .
    3. Another key aspect is Subcontracting process. Each Pharma company has its own subcontracting process defined but its one of the critical processes in Pharma industry.
    4. Planning with MRP also is important from the system set up .
    Hope this helps
    Regards

  • Our company decided to use Firefox for an implementation and we need to remotely set all systems to empty cache on exit

    We need to find, either a registry key or setting that can be deployed to all our computers. Specifically, it is to clear the disk cache files on exit. Thank you in advance for your assistance.

    hello hernandm, you can use the method described in http://kb.mozillazine.org/Locking_preferences to deploy certain settings.
    put the following code into the mozilla.cfg file to force firefox installations to clear the cache at shutdown:
    lockPref("privacy.sanitize.sanitizeOnShutdown", true);
    lockPref("privacy.clearOnShutdown.cache", true);
    defaultPref("privacy.clearOnShutdown.cookies", false);
    defaultPref("privacy.clearOnShutdown.downloads", false);
    defaultPref("privacy.clearOnShutdown.formdata", false);
    defaultPref("privacy.clearOnShutdown.history", false);

  • Using JRockit for SAP JVM (JDK 1.4.2_37b02)

    Can I use JRockit to monitor SAP JVM (J2EE) threads, memory, Garbage Collector?
    We are running on Windows 2003, SP2 with MS SQL 2005. We run SAP NetWeaver Portal 7.02 on Sun Partner JDK 1.4.2_37
    SAP has there own SAP Memory Analyzer Profiler tools, but there graphs, messaging (email, sms, etc.) as well as reports are weak.
    Thanks.

    No, this will not work. The SAP JVM is based on Hotspot, while the JRockit tools require the JRockit JVM to work.
