Preparing Functional Specifications

Hi Gurus,
How can we write functional specifications for any functionality to be implemented in CRM.
For example I want to prepare functional specification for making "External reference field" read only in crmd_order transaction.
Please let me know. Also if anybody has a template for the same please fwd me the same.
Regards
Yogesh

hi Deepa,
this field is not in master data. It tells to the system, when you press save, how many assets has to be created (by default 1). If you enter 10 for example, than 10 assets will be created (you can enter different decriptions and serial numbers, but the rest will be the same)
hope this helps

EXIT_SAPMM06E_016 for User exit how to prepare functional specification.

Hello Gentlemen,
Ex: - issue for the PO no: 4500006789
Made advance payment against PO 100%, later vendor has given discount on freight charges, so once advance payment is made then system should not allow to amending the PO.
Now client requirements are as follows likeu2026.
Condition no1: If there is an existing down payment against the PO then system should allow to amending the PO, but system should throw the warning message as there is already down payment against the PO.
Condition no2: If there is an existing down payment against the PO system should allow to amending the PO, but system should not allow to changing more than the total value of the PO.
So User exit which I have mentioned in above subject line it should be in a position to fullfill the condition no1 and condition no2.
So pleas let me know the functional specification and functional specification logic for above said in subject User exit.
Early action inthis matter will be highly appreciated.

as far as i know, when you make an advance payment you can link it to a po only thru a reference text field.
uncleared vendor items will be table BSIK
you may have to filter it out by transaction type A and spl gl indicator A, both refering to down payment.
this way you can find out what is the advance payment still with the vendor.

Inputs for reveiwing Functional specification to prepare TS document

Hello Gurus
Good day to you. Now i have a requirement for reviewing the functional specification. I have few FS documents and i want to review them and let my manager know whether those FS documents are having the required information to start up to write a TS document or not. if it is not having sufficient information or if i require more information or lack of information in FS to start up TS preparation, i need to inform my lead. This is my requirement.
Here i require your suggestions or inputs which i should take care while reviewing the existing Functional specification. Please provide your inputs as per your experience.
This is going to help me a lot.
Thanks in advance.
Regards
Raj

Hi Raj,
While reviewing the FS below are the key points which you note:
1. FS contains explanation of the functionality.
Functionality which you are trying to convey to the technical team to build
2. Details of the mapping tables if any
Mapping tables from legacy - SAP or SAP - upstream if any with the table info and applicability
3. Validity of specific values or length -
Validation if specific dates/char/numbers for fields required in SAP.
4. Analysis of any additional dependency for the FS
Any open clarification, requirements which would be a dependency for the FS (Example Input file)
Do let me know if you need any further info.

MKS

Parameters to be considered for functional specification preparation

hello experts
what are the parameters need to be considered at the time of prep.of any functional specification for abap deveopment?
or how to prepare functional spec

It depends on how you design your specification -
for example for creation of notification & order in the back ground you can use BAPI
For creation of confirmation of order you can use BAPI.
Use T code BAPI for exploring the available BAPI & their uses.
For finding out user exit use t- code SE84.
enhancements - serch with IW* you will get all PM related exits
For function module use SE37 for searching function modules
As such its upto the ABAPer to use them in development

Functional Specifications for ABAP Developments

Dear All,
We are implementing negative time management. We require data to be transferred from the Time Recording Terminal to the SAP system. We are planning to adopt for ABAP program to transfer data from Time Recording System to SAP. Can anyone provide me with the functional specifications I should be providing to the ABAP consultants. Also please provide the Standard format we should follow to give Functional Specs to the ABAP consultants.
Regards,
T.Satish

Dear Christopher,
Our customer has existing Time Recording terminals(TRT). These TRT's do not have an interface with SAP. The data is downloaded in "text" format from the TRT. We are planning to develop a BDC for the data transfer. I am required to give the Functional Specs for this purpose. If possible please give me a copy of the functional specs prepared for data transfer from TRT to SAP.

Functional Specifications for Reports

Hi All,
Can anybody pls. share with me any helpful material which will direct me create Technical Specifications from Functional Specifications
Thanks In Advance
Regards
PPMM

Hi,
When you convert the Functional requirement into technical Requirement you have to prepare the following document.
1) Data Staging (Transfomation and Update Rule)
2) Data Modelling (MDM and ERM Model)
3) Data Flow
4) Infoobject List (Compare with datasource fields)
5) Reporting Requirement.
You can used the Top Down Approach or bootom down approach for Modelling.
From Reporting Perspective come to cube and infoobject List.Top Down approach.
Or from the datasource Fields design the Infoobject List and start from there..
this document can be useful...
http://help.sap.com/bp_biv335/BI_EN/documentation/SolutionScope_EN.doc
In BW Technical means the person involved in the configuration part i.e design and functional means the person working after the design level that means Production.
Functional specs would be normally prepared by the client or functional guys and the technical specs are the ones prepared by you that is what are the infoobjects,cubes to be used etc..
System specifiactions are technical settings of BW GUI and other system related aspects.
In production support normally you see functional specs on which you'll be given tickets for any issues.
I hope it will help you.
thanks

Functional specification examples related to enhancement in sap sd

Hi All,
Can you please provide me the functional spec related to any scenario in SAP SD.
Thanks

Dear Friend...
As a functional consultant , we may often come across certain situations from clients to modify / create or design a new requirement or a report or a new funcitionality with your existing System in place...
Say for eg : you may have a requirement from your client to include a new report in your system which enable the user to see the sales detail of a particular customer who avail certain discounts in a particular period of time.. then you may have to create a report with inputs like
1) Customer
2) Discount Conditon type
3) Date
where as the output will be having all the desired details like the
1) Sales orders for that customer
2) Its value
3) The customer address etc etc
(This example is just to give you a scenario)
Hence .. YOu have to develop a report which is not already available in Standard SAP. You have to contact your abaper to explain this requirement and to design this report,who will be desinging the report.
So FUNCTIONAL REQUIREMENT SPECIFICATION is a document which contains all the requirement details, input details, the table and their field names, Output details ,the table and their field names, the constraints which needs to be checked while executing the report, input constraints, output constraints, Error handling methods and also the process flow...
The Functional consultants will prepare the funciton requirement specification (Also called as FRS) and submit to the ABAPer .ABAPer will design the report / requirement or new funcitionality on the basis of the document.
Hope this is fruitful...
Also go through this links...

Functional Specification Documents for SAP Sales and Distribution

Dear Gurus,
I am having the problems of Invoice Output..... the default out put generated by the SAP is completely different from the hard copy of the Invoice of the Client. ppl say that I have 2 take the help of ABAPers to define the smart forms for the invoices of different company codes.... i had conversation with the ABAPers.... butthey are asking the format, wht ever the change we are looking for..... I am not be able to get the exact format.... how 2 provide this to ABAPers in FS format.
can any one pls send me ( or provide me the link to download the same from the SDN website) these Functional Specification Documents for Sales and distribution.
Wishes,
Abhishek

Hi there,
1st try to understand what is a functional specification doc before asking for it.
Functional specs is a doc in which you include what is the business requirement. If it requires a change to change to existing configs / code, then you will give the progs & the location where you will need to change. If the requirement is a totally new one, then yuo will explain the requirement in detail & possibly give the progs / code if there are any.
In your case, your client has a specific invoice format which is different from which SAP gives, in such cases, you will need to define a new Invoice output for eg ZINV. Define it as a print output. You will need to define a new print prog for the new output in which you will call smart forms to define the layout & fields.
Ask your business user to send the invoice copy which he has. Scan it & include it in the functional specs which you prepare. Mention all the fields which you want in the layout. Ask the ABAPer to code the invoice format in the same way. ABAPer is free to define any convinent name as per the guidelines (which he will be aware). You will need to assign that in the form routines of the output.
As a functional consultant you will need to give the field mappings (from where you get the data) for all the fields which you wish to print in the output. All that should be included in the func specs.
So there is no standard func specs that you can follow. Each func specs varies on the requirement. So dont ask these kind of questions in SDN forum. If you dont know how to define func specs, ask how to define. Dont ask people to send the sample func specs. Thats against the rules of conduct.

Sivanand

Hi Alessandro .,
while preparing Functional Spec , Ensure that all the Business requirements is coverd .
Be clear about the screens that are required for the Object . USe F1 key and give clear Idea about the Technical name & Field label .
ENsure the Test data . Possible deviations .
For Debugging Use /h and F5 for step by step Exctuion . Identify what are the steps you want to track put some break point ( place the Cursur in the line and hit Debug Button , Save once) .
hope this helps You .
thanks
