Dif between Industry Reference Model & Process Integration Pack (PIP)

What is the difference between Industry Reference Model & Process Integration Pack (PIP)?
As I understand PIP is the prebuild integration solution for a busines process like "Order to Cash". Then what Industry Reference Model is?
From some of the AIA architectural diagram, I found Industry Reference Model is one more layer on top of AIA PIP reffering same business processes like "Order to Cash", "Procure to Pay" etc.
Like other key AIA components, does Oracle provide any artifacts/library for Industry Reference Model to customer?

Industry reference model is an optimized business process view of a business and technical analyst(s). The optimization could be focussed to meet the requirements of a particular domain (industry specific or vertical solution) or the solution could be horizontal (across the domains). This model would be generic and independent of the participating applications of an integration solution.
PIP is the pre-build integration solution for a business process between two or more systems that implements the industry reference model (could be vertical or horizontal).
For example:
(1) "Order-To-Cash" PIP is a horizontal solution (independent of the industry/domain) bridging the Siebel CRM & E-Business Suite applications. If we have to develop another PIP for the same business process between two other participating applications, we would use the same Industry reference model because Industry reference model is independent of the participating applications and domains/vertical.
(2) Similarly "Order-To-Bill" PIP is a vertical solution (for Telecom domain) bridging the Siebel CRM, Oracle BRM & E-Business Suite OM. If we have to develop another PIP for the same business process for another vertical, then we should have another optimized industry reference model targeted for that vertical.
--> We are delivering the industry reference models along with foundation pack : FP 2.2.1 onwards (look at the chapter-10 of the installation guide. This would explain the location of BPMs and procedure to view those diagrams).

R/3 Reference model for SAP IS-U

Hi,
I was wondering how I can obtain the Business Process Master List and the R/3 reference model for SAP IS-U. Are these available in the public domain, or can someone sent these to me?
I'm also interested in the link with the Business Process Master List to the pre-written Business Process Procedures (BPPs), detailed end-user documentation for R/3 transactions.
TIA,
Christiaan

IS-U data model has been divided into 2 parts.
1) Business Master Data
2) Technical Master Data
Business Master Data will have
a) Business partner
b) Contract Account
c) Contract
Technical Master Data
a)Connection Object
b)Premise
c)Installation.
Example :
One Business Partner will have multiple Contract Accounts
One Contract Account will have multiple Contracts( ex: Gas contract or Electricity contract or water contract)
One contract will have one installation
One Connection Object will have multiple Premises.
One Premise will have will have multiple installations

Create material from reference material for all org.levels

Hi,
i want to create a material from a reference material with all MARA, MAKT, MARC, MBEW, MARD, MARM, MVKE, MLAN, MLGN and MLGT content for all organizational levels of the reference material.
For instance, my reference material has 200 MARC entries. All these entries should also be created for the new material.
Transaction MM01 will copy from reference but only for 1 organizational level. To create 200 plants manually with MM01 is not an option.
I have to develop a copy from reference transaction, where i select the new material number, the reference material number and the required tables (MARA, MAKT, etc)
I can read the current tablevalues and insert new entries into the required SAP standard tables, but that is not nice.
Is there another option to do the job ?
I know there are bapi's, but these are related to one org.level. For 200 plants, i have to execute 200 bapi to get the data from the reference material and another 200 bapi's to create the new material.
with kind regards,
Hans

Hi Goutam,
You can use the BAPI BAPI_MATERIAL_SAVEDATA, which will create/update the material. You can pass the reference material in the filed BAPI_MARA-PL_REF_MAT. And you can pass reference material for all view like this.

For general information about Powered by SAP NetWeaver, take a look at the resources available at the SAP Developer Network (SDN) site at http://sdn.sap.com.
Will SAP ensure that other partners (and SAP) will not offer solutions that compete with mine?
The Powered by SAP NetWeaver partner program is open to all enterprise software vendors who wish to certify and run their solutions on SAP NetWeaver. Part of being an open ecosystem is open and fair competition among partners, and between SAP and partners. SAP cannot guarantee exclusivity of individual partner solutions, nor can we guarantee that we wont offer competing solutions.
What are the requirements for vendors to join the Powered by SAP NetWeaver Partner Program?
To qualify to become a member of the Powered by SAP NetWeaver Partner Program, you must meet the following minimum criteria:
Have at least one developer trained on SAP NetWeaver technologies.
Deploy your solution according to one of the Powered by SAP NetWeaver qualified certification scenarios and certify it with the SAP Integration and Certification Center (SAP ICC). Qualified Powered by SAP NetWeaver integration scenarios:
Certification of SAP NetWeaver (Web) Application Server (SAP NetWeaver AS, compliant with J2EE or ABAP) and SAP NetWeaver (Enterprise) Portal, or
Certification of XI-Adapter with full integration in SAP (NetWeaver) Exchange Infrastructure (SAP NetWeaver XI), or
Certification of XI-Content integration in SAP NetWeaver XI in combination with SAP NetWeaver Portal (XI Content certification can additional be certified against certain industry standards)
Have at least two sales resources trained on SAP NetWeaver sales messaging.
Have an assigned contact person.
Attend a minimum of one SAP customer event each year.

All members are given the opportunity to establish a high-profile presence on SAP.com that highlights their Powered by SAP NetWeaver solutions. SAP also provides a series of templates for building collateral and demos that are pushed out through the SAP intranet to the entire SAP global field sales force. In addition, SAP makes the library of Powered by SAP NetWeaver solutions available to customers through both online and printed materials distributed by SAP. On occasion, SAP will hold seminars, Webinars, and road shows with select partners to co-market the partners Powered by SAP NetWeaver solutions.
What are the major reasons an ISV should switch now from Oracle, BEA, or Microsoft to SAP NetWeaver?
Most ISVs will support more than one platform. We believe that SAPs unique position as a true Applistructure provider makes SAP NetWeaver compelling as a primary platform of choice for ISVs who are looking to make full use of Enterprise Services Architecture and realize the potential of web services.
What does it cost to become a member of the Powered by SAP NetWeaver Partner Program?
There is no fee to join the Powered by SAP NetWeaver Partner Program. There are, however, costs associated with individual elements of the program, including certification, training, and test/demo software licenses, when needed.
What does the Powered by SAP NetWeaver certification process entail?
Several options exist for third-party applications to become Powered by SAP NetWeaver and achieve integration certification with the Powered by SAP NetWeaver branding. Current opportunities include the following:
Portal Integration
All Powered by SAP NetWeaver endorsed solutions have a certified integration into SAP NetWeaver Portal, usually via certified business packages.*
*[exceptions are SAP NetWeaver XI adapters and some ABAP add-ons]
J2EE Applications
J2EE applications are certified for deployment on the J2EE Engine in SAP NetWeaver AS.
ABAP Add-Ons
ABAP add-on applications are certified for deployment on the ABAP stack of SAP NetWeaver AS and proper packaging via the ABAP add-on assembly kit. Some SAP NetWeaver Portal integrations may be accomplished via SAP GUI for HTML instead of the business package integration mentioned above.
SAP NetWeaver XI Adapters
SAP XI adapters leverage the easy and efficient integration of third-party applications on the process and content level via the SAP NetWeaver Exchange Infrastructure component.
SAP NetWeaver XI Content
SAP NetWeaver Exchange Infrastructure offers a complete EAI solution that integrates SAP business system applications as well as non-SAP business solutions (A2A and B2B scenarios). SAP XI content includes all information and knowledge necessary to enable the integration of applications and business processes (collaboration knowledge). Additional certification of XI Content for interoperability with industry standards is also available.
Details of the certification process can be found in the accompanying Powered by SAP NetWeaver Partner Program presentation.
What technical assistance will I receive along the way?
We offer three types of technical assistance:
The SAP Developer Network (SDN) web site: SDN is a community of fellow developers who work with SAP NetWeaver technologies. Please join this community to participate in online forums, Webcasts, and Weblogs around SAP NetWeaver. On SDN you will also find a dedicated SAP ICC Web site containing documentation materials for all integration scenarios above.
SAP Education: SAP education offers basic training for SAP NetWeaver and its different components. Please check the ICC web site on SDN for recommended training classes.
For companies with a valid certification agreement with SAP ICC: SAP assigns an SAP ICC technical consultant(s) to each ISV to provide integration-certification specific education and knowledge transfer in SAP NetWeaver. SAP ICC offers integration consulting and can provide certification testing either remotely or on-site at the SAP ICC certification lab.
What software and licenses do I need?
We provide free trial licenses of software components for development and testing (J2EE engine, SAP NetWeaver Portal, SAP NetWeaver Developer tool, and portal development kit (PDK) on SDN).
SAP sales offices provide in-house licenses for example, ABAP development workbench and SAP Partner Connectivity Kit for SAP NetWeaver XI adapters.
The ICC provides hosted test systems, SAP XI and back-end SAP ERP systems suitable for XI Content certification
How long will it take to complete the Powered by SAP NetWeaver certifications?
The complexity of the application and the integration scenario you select generally determines the timeline. For J2EE deployment, our experience indicates that the average time it takes for certification is three weeks. SAP NetWeaver Portal and iView window and business package integration takes another three weeks. Previous experience integrating with enterprise portals via iView windows or portlets and deploying on J2EE application servers has proven helpful. The duration may therefore greatly differ from vendor to vendor. As a rough estimate for ABAP add-on and SAP NetWeaver XI adapter certification, approximately two to six months are needed to complete a project from registration to publication.
We currently run our application on the IBM WebSphere Application Server (or the BEA WebLogic platform), and customers are very happy with that. Why should we support SAP NetWeaver AS, which is newer and less well-known?
ISVs can reduce their customers TCO and risk by adopting a platform that is quickly becoming the de facto standard among Global 1,000 customers: mySAP Business Suite, powered by SAP NetWeaver. Additionally, SAP NetWeaver is the technology foundation for all new SAP products going forward. As such, it will be implemented at more than 60,000 global SAP installations. Partners can take advantage of this rapidly growing ecosystem by providing customers with solutions that can quickly integrate with SAP NetWeaver.
You should also browse through the information in the SAP/J2EE migration kit.
Why are there both Powered by SAP NetWeaver solutions from SAP and Powered by SAP NetWeaver partner solutions?
SAP is using SAP NetWeaver as the technology platform to power all SAP solutions, including mySAP ERP, mySAP CRM, SAP Industry Solutions and SAP xApps. Partners can take advantage of the large and growing installed base of SAP NetWeaver, and leverage the platform that is already installed, thereby lowering the implementation costs of their Powered by SAP NetWeaver solutions and lowering the customers TCO (total cost of ownership). SAP-built Powered by SAP NetWeaver solutions will therefore run side-by-side with partner-built Powered by SAP NetWeaver solutions.
What is the difference between Powered by SAP NetWeaver solutions and the SAP xApps portfolio of packaged composite applications?
Except for SAP NetWeaver XI adapters, a certified Powered by SAP NetWeaver solution can be almost any type of enterprise application that runs on SAP NetWeaver AS and integrates with SAP NetWeaver Portal as the user interface. On top of that, the SAP xApps packaged composite applications meet the requirements of Powered by SAP NetWeaver and are consistent with the architecture, features, and functions of a true composite application.
SAP xApps composite applications combine web services and data from multiple systems in an application design made possible by the SAP Composite Application Framework tool within the SAP NetWeaver platform. This framework includes the methodology, tools, and run-time environment to develop composite applications. It provides a consistent object model and a rich user experience, and it gives developers a productive way to create composite applications on top of a set of heterogeneous applications. In addition, SAP xApps composite applications are uniquely differentiated in that they are innovative and highly complementary to SAP applications.
Where can I find more technical information about SAP NetWeaver?
SDN is a knowledge and collaboration environment for the SAP community that is developing and implementing within the SAP NetWeaver technology platform. You can find it on the SDN homepage.
For information on SAP ICC, go to Services on SDN and select Integration & Certification.
SAP NetWeaver Portal Business Package Integration
What is required for a business package to pass certification?
All requirements of the business package certification are specified in the test plan, which can be requested from your SAP ICC. The technical requirements for successful certification of a business package include:
Support single sign-on (SSO) to SAP NetWeaver Portal (where applicable).
Adhere to the SAP NetWeaver Portal look and feel (branding)
Provide full support for at least one web browser that is also supported by SAP NetWeaver Portal.
What tools can I use to develop a business package?
We recommend using SAP NetWeaver Development Studio as the integrated development environment (IDE) for your development. In addition, SAP provides the Portal Development Kit (PDK), which provides a wealth of documentation, tutorials, and tools to help you with your content development. The PDK for the Java platform, as well as the PDK for the .NET platform, can be downloaded free from SDN for SAP NetWeaver Portal 5 (only Java) and SAP NetWeaver Portal 6 - see the SDN Download Catalog.
Our application does not require authentication. Do we still need to support SSO requirements for business package certification?
No. The basic idea behind the SSO requirement is to eliminate the need for further manual authentications for an end user who has already logged on to SAP NetWeaver Portal. If your back end (and thus the business package) does not need to authenticate users, this requirement does not apply to your business package.
How can a business package support SSO with SAP NetWeaver Portal?
A business package can implement SSO with SAP NetWeaver Portal in either of the following ways:
SSO based on user mapping, where the portal user is mapped to another user in the external system of the business package. (For information on user mapping-based SSO, see the SAP Library.
SSO based on SAP logon ticket, where the business package retrieves the information about the logged-on user in SAP NetWeaver Portal and verifies it so that the external system can authenticate the user. (As part of the PDK 6.0, please see the javadoc for the class com.sap.security.api.ticket.TicketVerifier as part of the user management service APIs.)
See the SSO-related Weblogs on the SAP ICC homepage on SDN.
J2EE Deployment
What versions of the J2EE standard does SAP NetWeaver support?
SAP NetWeaver supports two versions of the J2EE standard:
J2EE 1.2: SAP NetWeaver AS 6.20
J2EE 1.3: SAP NetWeaver AS 6.40
What Java Development Kit (JDK) versions does SAP NetWeaver require?
Two JDK versions are required:
SAP NetWeaver AS 6.20: JDK 1.3.1 or higher version, below JDK 1.4
For supported platforms, please contact the SAP ICC.
SAP NetWeaver AS 6.40: JDK 1.4.2_07 or higher version below JDK 1.5
SAP supports the following platforms (latest operating system patches as of March 2005):
Solaris SPARC 32 Bit + 64 Bit
Linux 32 Bit + 64 Bit (Itanium)
Windows 32 Bit + 64 Bit (Itanium)
NOTE: On Windows 2003 server, please make sure you have installed Microsoft Hotfix 841176, to be found at http://support.microsoft.com/?id=841176
For up-to-date requirements, please contact the SAP ICC or visit the SAP ICC homepage.
What do we need to do to have our J2EE application certified?
Certification of deployment on the J2EE Engine in SAP NetWeaver AS has two basic requirements:
First, the third-party J2EE application must be successfully deployed onto the J2EE Engine in SAP NetWeaver AS.
Second, after deployment, the application must run as expected based on a mutually agreed-upon test plan.
How can I deploy my application into the J2EE engine in SAP NetWeaver AS? Does the certification require that we use a particular method?
You can use any of the deployment methods provided by SAP for certification. However, the deployment process will differ, based on the version of the J2EE Engine in SAP NetWeaver AS that you use.
For J2EE Engine 6.20, a J2EE application can be deployed onto SAP NetWeaver AS in four different ways, as documented in the deployment manual.
For J2EE Engine 6.40, refer to the Deployment: Putting It All Together section in SAP online help for a detailed explanation of the different deployment methods in version 6.40 of the J2EE engine and SAP NetWeaver AS.
What enhancements does version 6.40 of the J2EE engine in SAP NetWeaver AS offer versus 6.20?
Find out how version 6.40 of the J2EE Engine in SAP NetWeaver AS improves on 6.20.
Are there any advantages to using SAP NetWeaver AS to develop J2EE applications that run in an SAP solution-based environment (compared to using IBM WebSphere or BEA WebLogic)?
The broad customer base of SAP that has installed the SAP NetWeaver platform can select your J2EE application, which can be deployed and run on the J2EE engine. No other non-SAP/J2EE application server is needed.
How difficult will it be to port my J2EE application that currently runs on IBM WebSphere or BEA WebLogic to SAP NetWeaver AS?
SAP NetWeaver AS is fully J2EE-compatible; if your application was developed following the J2EE specifications, the porting of your J2EE application to SAP NetWeaver AS should be very easy. You should also browse through the information in the J2EE migration kit.
What if I run into problems during the porting/deployment of my J2EE applications to SAP NetWeaver AS?
We recommend that you join SDN and consult its forums and documentation. Here you will find a wealth of experience in installing SAP NetWeaver, porting, and so forth from your fellow developers. If you have a contract for consulting or certification with SAP ICC in place, a designated SAP consultant would help you resolve the problems.
ABAP Deployment
How does an ABAP application become certified as Powered by SAP NetWeaver?
The ABAP application (add-on) needs to meet all of the following criteria:
The add-on must be ABAP-certified on the ABAP stack of SAP NetWeaver AS 6.20 or higher and contain GUI elements that are supported by the SAP GUI for HTML.
If the add-on solution contains additional J2EE parts, these parts must also run on the SAP NetWeaver platform and could be certified for their deployment on the J2EE stack.
The add-on needs to be packaged and distributed using the SAP add-on assembly kit. This tool is available as part of the certification agreement.
What are the benefits to an SAP customer of using an SAP-certified ABAP add-on?
Customers can import and maintain the third-party add-on using the SAP standard transactions SAINT and SPAM. It is assured that the add-on can be used and controlled using SAP NetWeaver Portal.
SAP Netweaver XI Adapters
How does an SAP NetWeaver XI adapter become certified as Powered by SAP NetWeaver?
SAP ICC provides certification opportunities for third-party adapters for the SAP NetWeaver XI adapter framework (NW-XI-AF). These adapters must be implemented as resource adapters of the Java Connector Architecture 1.0. Adapters enable the SAP NetWeaver XI integration engine to talk to different application components or industry standards. Within SAP NetWeaver XI, it is important that the adapters are lightweight, in case the integration directory must be used to keep track of required services and mappings. To pass integration certification testing, SAP NetWeaver XI adapters are also required to build the connection directly to other applications or technical systems and must be deployed to SAP NetWeaver XI.
ISVs can use SAP Partner Connectivity Kit, available through any SAP sales office, as the platform to develop their SAP NetWeaver XI adapters.
What are the benefits to a customer for using an SAP-certified SAP NetWeaver XI adapter?
Customers are assured that the adapter is embedded properly on the SAP NetWeaver platform. Monitoring and configuration of this adapter can be centrally handled via SAP NetWeaver XI. No additional software systems are needed to run an SAP- certified SAP NetWeaver XI adapter.
SAP NetWeaver XI Content Certification
How does a SAP NetWeaver XI content become certified as Powered by SAP NetWeaver?
The XI content needs to meet all of the following criteria:
All XI objects must be embedded in one or more integration scenarios
Optional XI content can be developed supporting industry standards. The industry standard interfaces must be utilized on one side of the integration scenario
ISVs have to specify required functional test cases to ensure the functional correctness of all objects contained in the integration scenarios
ISVs must provide the documentation of the required design and configuration steps
What are the benefits to a customer for using SAP-certified SAP NetWeaver XI content?
XI Content is a key differentiator of our integration solutions. SAP delivers XI content to facilitate the implementation process and thus reduce the TCO for the customers. Customers easily understand the underlying business scenarios of XI content objects.

Hi David,
thanks a lot. I did so and it worked, but I found a minor bug while doing so:
I marked the table as "Implement as Materialized View" and went to File->Export->DDL (for Oracle 11g).
The generated code (I checked all options in "Drop Selection") includes a row:
DROP MATERIALIZED VIEW mv_mymatview CASCADE CONSTRAINTS ;
which produces a syntax error.
Best regards,
Blama

Service "No valuation class exists for account reference"

Hi,
in AC01 trx, I cannot create a Service.
The error is:
No valuation class exists for account reference
I tried with trx OMSK to link the account category reference to material type but won't work.
The error is always: No valuation class exists for account reference

Hi,
try also to check from SPRO, Materials Management, External Services Management, Service Master, "Define Service Category", you have to set the standard "Account category reference" 0006 or the one (custom) you have set in customizing also check (Valuation and Account Assignment trx OMSK)

Hi,
You can use this report to compare two itemizations. The report compares the characteristics item number, item category, cost element, resource, material, cost center, plant/work center, cost center/activity type, operation number, BOM item, assembly indicator, and cost component.
You can access this report as follows:
Accounting ® Controlling ® Product Cost Controlling ® Product Cost Planning ® Material Costing ® Cost Estimate with Quantity Structure or Cost Estimate Without Quantity Structure ® Compare
or
Accounting ® Controlling ® Product Cost Controlling ® Product Cost Planning ® Information System ® Object Comparisons ® For Material ® Itemization Comparison.

IS-OIL: Exchange Third-party feedstock material for on-spec material

Dear All,
We are using SAP ERP ECC 6.0 + IS-Oil Downstream and we are trying to figure out how to record the following business flow in the system:
1. A third-party partner send us feedstock/off-spec material to our oil depot for an exchange with on-spec material
2. We give them on-spec material and charge fees based on the cost of processing the feedstock to on-spec material
We are thinking to use Buy/Sell exchange type, but when we buy the material, then there will be tax charge and material will be GR as valuated material , which we are trying to avoid.
Could we use Terminalling Agreement? GR the feedstock as non-valuated and then GI on-spec material (let's say Diesel) as non-valuated also (different material between GR and GI).. Or there is another way in SAP, regarding services to process third-party raw material to finished good material for Oil and Gas industry?
We are really appreciate your help..
Thank you,
John Stallon

Revenue for a material for a period

How can we find the revenue for a material for a particular period? Is there a standard report that shows the billing data for material with the list of customers
Edited by: SATHISH KUMAR ARUGA KEERTHI on Sep 25, 2009 9:08 AM

Dear Customer,
you can check the following tables:
VBREVK: Control lines
Each sales document item (type A, B) has 2 control lines (per G/L account)
Each invoice item (type D) has 1 control line (per G/L account)
Her it hows total accrual value, account balance, revenue amount, processing status
VBREVE: detail lines
Each sales document item has revenue detail lines for different periods (per revenue account) representing the revenue forecast
Revenue account, posting period, amount, processing status
VBREVR: reference document lines
Each document line item of the subsequent Invoice or Cancellation
Accounts, amounts
I hope that the information are helpful.
With best regards
