SAP GRC - ERM - Role update issue - Business Process and Subprocess

Hello Friends:
We are NOT currently maintaining Business processes or sub processes in GRC 5.3 for all roles. We don't want to maintain them in GRC 10 when we upload the roles. These 2 fields are Mandatory in GRC 10.0 - Can we make them NOT mandatory and leave them blank?? Currently we are facing some issues in uploading the roles
Please advise.
Regards
Ashish

Dear Ameet:
I just dislike the idea where SAP has made options for Business Process and Subprocess columns mandatory in uploading the roles as well from backend.
I am NOT using BRM, but still need to upload the roles for SAP to recognize them to be assigned to the users in GRC 10.0
I was facing the issues in uploading the roles initially, but now i have made it simple - just assign all the roles without the information of being FI or SD or Mm - to IT00 business process and sub process. So, all the roles are now uploaded to the system. I was just curious to know if they can me made Non-mandatory field by any settings.
But anyways, thanks for your input.
Regards

SAP T-Codes with Functiona Area, Business Process, Sub-Process wise details

Hi Experts,
I am Involved in GRC AC5.3 implementation Project. In this we need to work on complete Role-Redesign Process, which involves building of New Roles as per their requirement (Transaction used in past one Year). We find 3500 T-Codes, which are used by the client from past one year. We need to segregate the All the T-Codes into Functiona Area, Business Process, Sub-Process wise.
*Is there any data source available on Complete information on SAP T-Codes with Functiona Area, Business Process, and Sub-Process wise details.
Thank and Regards,
Sathish...

Hi Satish,
As per my knowledge, Since the role design is more specific to any client there is no standard classification.
However you can classify them taking leverage of sap provided rule set for RAR or Existing customized ruleset in your landscape, based on that you can start grouping the Tcodes and start framing the roles.

Business Process and sub Process IN ERM and CUP

Hi Friends,
We are in intial stage of GRC implimentation. Now I am uploading the roles into ERM and CUP. I have defined business processes and sub processes for the roles and upload the roles successfully in ERM. But when I am doing the same excercise in CUP especially during creation of sub process it is not allowing the charecter "-" in the name space.
E.g. Business process name is EHS-SM (Uploaded to CUP)
Sub process name is EHS-SM1.1 (not allowing to create in CUP wher as successfully created in ERM)
My question is
1. why it allows me to do the same thing in ERM but not in CUP.
2. Is there any way to maintain the name with chaecter "-".
For your information I am in the phase of defining the attributes for the roles.
Thanks & Regards,
Satyabrat

Hi all,
I will have a hard time ahead with BP and SBP. all are in the same format. I dont think my company will agree to change the name of there BP or SBP because they are thousands in count and also there is no other way around in GRC,
Let give me a try...
Thanks Guys for your support and time.

Business process and sub process in CUP & ERM

Hi,
We have created Business Processes and Sub- Processes in ERM. But we are not able to view the same when we create a request in CUP.
We have created the Business Processes and Sub- Processes for CUP in Roles -Attributes.These were then visible in the request.
Do we need to create the Processes and Sub-processes independently in both ERM and CUP or should it flow into CUP when roles are imported into CUP from ERM ?
Thanks and Regards.

Another important point:
In CUP, Sub Processes are optional, in ERM they are mandatory.
Please make sure you have some in CUP for all your processes.

Relation between business process and functional area during the role search

Hi Experts,
We have 2 functional areas in which we have different business process involved.
During the Access request, if the user selects one functional area then business process related to that functional area should come.
Is there any functionality in GRC, where the mapping between functional are and business process to be done?
Thanks,
Sriram

Hi Sri,
there is relationship between 'Business process' and 'Sub-business' process as in configuration parameter you can setup that once business process is selected only relevant sub-process will be selected.
There is no such a relation between functional area and business process.

Difference between Business Process and Workflow

Hi all,
What is the difference between Business Process and Workflow? i have googled it and I don't really understand that complicated definition? Is there any examples to illustrate the difference between the both?

Hi,
I will try to put here , my perspective of this. If somebody knows better, they can update further on this.
Business process is purely on the perspective of the users. It may or maynot have anything to do with the system. When a draw a business flow diagram, we dont take care of how each and every process is handled in the system. The best illustration is an example of authorisation.
Let me say that I create a Purchase requisition. Once it is released a PO will be created by procurement managerD
This is a business process. However if we look at the system perspective, it can be like this.
1. Create a PR.
2. Check the value of the PR
3. If value <$100,an email needs to be send to person A, if it is $100 to 300$, an email should be send to person B and if >$300, an email should be send to B and C.
4.Once it is released, an email shoudl be send to D for creating a PO on this PR.
Here not only the process, but also how the work is delegated across various entities of the process is mentioned.
There are softwards like VISIO which actually take care of the business process in the perspective of the entities involved in the process. A workflow is a moredetailed version of business process with the roles of entities clearly defined and hence configured well in the system.
The concept is workflow is mostly used in the processes of authorisations, business activity monitoring(BAM), etc.
Hope I make it little clear to you.
You can reward if my response is of some help to you

How to map business process and enterprise service?

Recently, I read some documents about ESA. I'm confusing about the relationship between business process and enterprise service. In other word, how to map the business process to enterprise service after the business process is analyzed? Is there any methodology/rule to define business process and wrap them into service in ESA?

Hi Sherry,
I like to add some of my thoughts about that discussion. From my point of view ESA is much more than just another BPM or Enterprise BPM. ESA is adresses six key areas and I think all of them are really needed:
- People Productivity as the word itself describes...it's about portals and productivity.
- Embedded Analytics has to integrate transactional and analytical content.
- Service Composition is used for model-driven service composition and services orchestration.
- Service Enablement is about a Enterprise Services Repository filled with business meaningful Enterprise Services and service patterns for enabled objects. Excactly this is where SAP has years of experiences.
- Business Process Platform is about service enablement of all application platform objects and engines. This is the place where "BPM" for core business processes resits.
- Life-Cycle Management has to cover the deployment, configuration, operation and change management for ESA based processes.
Therefore the term "BPM" is located in serveral layers of an ESA approach. On the level of Business Process Platform BPM is providing the choreography for core business preocesses.
At Service Enablement BPM needs to compose out of granular services (I would say "atomic" services)
buiness meaningful services (here we have "molecular" services).
The third level where BPM could be used is Service Composition because exactly this is the place
where serveral Enterprise Services could be combined to a process representation.
To come back to the discussion:
1. The question should be how to indentify business meaningful services which could represent single process steps. ATP check, Credit card check, ... could be examples. In theory this service could be out-tasked, defined more flexible etc. This means that processes needs to be evaluated for Enterprise Service candidates. Afterwards you can check against SAP's Enterprise Services Repository for already existing Enterprise Services. The evalution for enterprise services candidates will be supported by the metodology mentioned by Kaj and David.
2. I think domains in this context should be motivated by business and/or functional areas. Depending on the granularity. For example Order Fulfilment Services, Master Data Services, Search Services... These kind of serices can be combined again to services such as "Search of Master Data" (Search Service + Read Master Data Service) etc. or can be used to generate UI to be used in a ESA application.
Your thoughts?
Very best regards
Wulff

Hi Srikant,
Sales process is related to only sales and Distribution which means from Sales to Billing, But in business process it includes other business aspects like accounting principles, etc, i.e it includes all processes of all the modules.
For SD point of view in interview your answer should be all SD scenarios.

How do you differentiate business process and business scenario

how do you differentiate business process and business scenario???
pls help

Google says;
A business scenario is a description of a business problem, which enables requirements to be viewed in relation to one another in the context of the overall problem. Without such a description to serve as context, the business value of solving the problem is unclear; the relevance of potential solutions is unclear and there is a danger of the solution being based on an inadequate set of requirements. A key factor in the success of any other major project is the extent to which it is linked to business requirements, and demonstrably supporting and enabling the enterprise to achieve its business objectives. Business scenarios are an important technique to help identify and understand business needs.
A business process -
