Hi Bysani,
As ABAP guy in SAP-PLM project you be working mostly on Enhancements, Field exist, user Exists and Reports.
There is nothing worry about SAP-PLM, the work you may get is based on customer requirement & scenarios but you will receive the Detail Funcitonal Specification from the PLM Functional Consultant.
As i mentioned the ABAP work is mostly on Field Exists to make some fields mandatories, User Exists, Functional Modules, Enhancements & Reports.
For details queries you can write in SDN, you will get the replies.
Best of Luck for your new assignment.

thanks& regards
subhasis

Hi Subhasis,
Are you a Technical/Functional i.e. ABAP/Functional please let me know?
If you are a Technical (ABAP) then you no need to worry about your work in PLM
your work remains same as of ABAP. i.e. you will be working on Function Modules, User Exits, Field Exits, Report Design, Scripts & enhancements etc.
The Objects/Area which you will be dealing are : Document Managment System (DMS), Engineering Change Management (ECM), & CAD Integration yes i forget to mentioned you will be working on "Interfaces" too. and rest in PS or CProjects & CFolders based on the Scenarios/Requirements of your Project.
If you are a Functional:
Then working in PLM is still easy if you have a experience of working in SAP,
First part of your PLM is PDM (Product Data Managment) which deals with
DMS, ECM, CAD Integration, Material Master, BOM etc
Basically you have to integrate all these objects or business objects precicely speaking to all the modules of the SAP R/3.
Welcome to the board.
If you have any specific questions, you can write at SDN, SDN team will help you at maximum, no need to worry.

Can any body tell me about sap-plm from technical point of view

In sap-plm from the development point of view what abapers task

Hi Prasoon,
PLM very wide area but from ABAP point of view it depends which area you are working on, like it includes Bill of Materials, Document Management System, Classifications, Product Structure Browser, Engineering Change Mangement, etc within R/3 and apart from this it even includes Project System
on Web application Systems it includes Collaboration Projects & Collaboration Folders.
ABAP work comes for enhancements, Functional Modules, User Exists, Feild Exists, Interfaces(RFC) for CAD Integrations etc, & Reports like ALV etc.
It Depends which part of PLM you are working on & what is the requirement where in ABAP development is required so in general it is difficult to answer this question but for any particular/specific requirements anybody will answer.
Hope you might have got the fair idea of PLM

New to SAP PLM ( I need advice pls)

Hi,
I will appreciate some advice please.
I'm interested in SAP and plan to gain certification in SAP PLM (Project Management Modules), but I've not got any SAP experience. I've got under 3yrs experience in Project Administrator, Support and Coordinator type roles, got my Certification in PRINCE 2 Practitioner level, Managing Successful Programmes (MSP) Practitioner level, PPSO and ITIL foundation level.
Where will you advice I place myself looking for a SAP role, Iu2019m not looking to get a consultancy type role or anything like that, just something that will get me into the SAP career path with my project background.
Also is SAP PLM the best or only focus for me given my Project background?
Finally, any advice on companies that will consider someone with my profile?
Thanks,
Fumi

Hi Fumi
Here PLM stands for Product Lifecycle Management. Forum is to discuss and get solution on the problems faced while implementation.
Sorry forum members may not answer for the subject

P_ABAP_70:SAP Certified Development Professional - ABAP with SAP NetWeaver

Hi,
Anyone attempted the above certification ? Can you please throw some light on:
1) Difficulty level
2) How to go about preparation
I have around 10 years of experience in SAP including development experience, playing a techno-function role.
I have browsed through a lot of threads in SDN but have not got a concrete answer.
Regards,
Srinivas Bhat.

Large difference in the two levels. You need to look at the proper forum here on SDN, and got to SAP site and read the differences in the knowledge levels expected for Associate and Professional. If you're a WebDynpro and WebServices wizard, know some SOA and fluent in OO should have no problems, but you really need to look at the exam content and weighting in SAP certification documentation.

How to access SAP netweaver development Studio and PDK?

Hi All,
I have access to EP server on my machine with super admin role .Is there any way I can acess SAP netweaver Developer Studio and PDK through EP server or I have to install in my local machine?
Thanks in advance,
Jasmine.

You'd want to install the NWDS application locally no matter what (unless everyone has a thin client/citrix connection via dumb terminal). You can however, opt to install a local instance of EP or use a central instance. Here's how I see the two approaches:
1-install the NWDS on developers' machines and deploy to a development instance of EP
PROS:
i-developers can develop locally and only connect to the EP server for deploying/testing
ii-share development (although not very efficiently) and test each others' iViews etc.
iii-demo your work online to business users directly
iv-connect to the corporate SAP R/3 and other ERP systems
CONS:
i-you can only use this while connected to the network
ii-could be slow over a slow/remote network connection
iii-developers may not be able to do everything on the portal server (may not have super admin access)
2-install the NWDS on the developers' PC along with a test EP environment
PROS:
i-develop and deploy locally, without a network connection, anywhere and anytime, fast and efficient
ii-enjoy full access (super admin) to the Portal - to be able to test pretty much everything
CONS:
i-may not be able to connect to the company SAP R/3 and other ERP systems, unless you're connected to the network and have configured the connections
ii-not able to get others to test or demo your development without having to port them to a central EP instance
I think a developer needs every resource they can get, therefore I suggest a combination of the above two scenarios, an instance of EP locally and a central instance of EP for the best of both worlds

ChaRM Test Message SDTM - Tester role cannot be same as the developer role

Hi Experts,
When the developer raise a test message SDTM, The developer couldn't confirm the message as we get a warning as
" Tester role cannot be same as the developer role "
We cheked the roles of developer and tester, they were not same .
We checked the Assign conditions in SDTM, But it doesnt have any values.
Advance thanks to all those replies.
Best regards,
Vin

Hi Friend
System check the name in the ticket or the BP for the person of Tester and Developer
Every person has unique BP so if the same name is entered in the ticket as Tester and developer then system will give you this warning.Since SAP recommendation is to have Dev and Tester 2 diff person.
You can ignore the same if Tester and Developer is the same person and might be you have technically created different roles for the same.
Hope it clarifies.

SAP PLM 7.0

Hi,
My understanding of the SAP PLM is that base PDM R/3 modules like ECM, DMS and CAD Desktop have been made available on portal making it more efficient, other than this, does it have adiditonal features related to xPDD, xRPM,cProjects and cFolder etc..
if any of you folks have worked in SAP PLM 7-0 could you ps summarize the feature available. thanks.
Thanks
Pugazh
Edited by: Pugazhenthi Shanmugam on Apr 26, 2011 12:07 AM

Hello Pugazh,
Your understanding is right to most extent. ECM has been completely changes and revamped from previous versions. They are now role based and are available on NWBC client.
On the other hand xPDD, xRPM,cProjects and cFolder etc.. are PPM capabilities and are distinct from PLM 7.0 the latest version on PPM is PPM 5.0 They do not come as part of the standard PLM 7.0
There are lots of presentations, release documents power points available please SEARCH through ASUG and SAP sites.

SAP PLM

Hi Guys
I am have working on PDM(Team center), VPM(Enovia DPM) and Catia V5 since 2 years now and I am planning to change to SAP PLM. Can any one help me Do i need to Have knowledge in any other things other then PDM, VPM to start up with SAP PLM.
If I want to take p my certification in SAP PLM where can i get it,( Do i need to contact Siemens for it or i can try with some other place)
Your help will be Appreciated
Pradeep

Hi Pradeep,
1.As you have worked in PDM (Team Center), and other CAD packages, you will be knowing the Functional processes/activities involved in the PLM which is very much required to learn and give solutions in SAP PLM.
2. As you must have worked with BOM, Documents, workflows, Organizational hierarchies, Roles & Responsibilities (Draftsmen, Junior/Assist Design Engineer, Design Engineer, Project Manager etc etc) and their authorizations.
3. So with these things it is very easy to learn & work with SAP PLM, if you are currently working in non-sap or any functional domain, you can join any SAP implementation company as a Trainee or Fresher and get trained on SAP
or there are many training institutes which train SAP even for 25-30K without certification. (You will get a fare idea about what SAP is )
Even SAP PLM starts with PDM Objects like, Material Master, Document Managment System, Engineering Change Managment (Versioning/Revisioning for BOM, MM, DIR), Bill of Materials, Classification System (Classes, Characteristics, Object Dependencies etc) all this are PDM Objects in SAP.
And there is Collaboration Projects, Collabortion Folders and CAD Integrations. etc these all together constitutes a SAP PLM

Creating ofBOM & Material SAP PLM instead of R3

Dear All
Please tell me
what is the benefit of creation of BOM & material in SAP PLM Instead of R/3?
waitnig for reply
thank you
Ravindra Saraf

Hi Ravindra,
The benefits are manyfold.
1. You can easily track the development cycle of a product right from its concept development to its productionization.
2. Many development centres are outsourced in recent times, so in absence of R/3 installation the data can be well created, maintained and utilized through PLM portal.
3. Seamless integration of ERP and PLM, taking it upto SCM.
4. Reduced dependency on other stakeholders creating the same data with different access.
Hope this answers your query.

Nishit
