SEM-CPM Balanced Scorecard and time-variant results/scores

Hi everyone!
I have successfully created a basic Balanced Scorecard with SAP SEM 4.0. By configuring the "Value Fields" and using "Formula Result-Score Assignment", I have specified which results are equivilant to what score. As an example, a have defined that a process cycle time of 25 minutes is equivilant to a score value of 85 (out of 100) and a process cycle time of 20 minutes is equivilant to a score value of 100.
Since I want to use my Balanced Scorecard for strategic planning (along with SEM/BW-BPS), I want these result-score assignments to vary of the upcoming period. As an example, in 6 months time a process cycle time of 20 minutes should be a score of 100 (as above). But since I want to improve my operational performance, in 12 months time a cycle time of 17 should be 100 (as my process cycle time should have improved by then). In other words, my planning targets should be dynamic (depending on time) and not only static (always the same).
My question is now, how can I define different Result-Score Assignment (in other words: goals/targets) for different time horizons? Can I do that with integrating SEM/BW-BPS?
Best regards, Daniel

SEM-CPM Balanced Scorecard

Hi Guys,
I am new to CPM and had no training, but I was wondering if you can create KPIs for each year as opposed to Period. All my test system options seem to point to Period - Current, Target etc. via the 'Initial Period' & 'Initial Target Period' and the 'Date Format' does not allow 'Year' only, but one client has asked for a year on year scorecard.
Thanks
Scott

Get to the scorecard with target period and in BEx you can create KPI based on year. Also, in measure, you can build measures with year based.

OCM, the Balanced Scorecard, and Fostering Collaboration

Many organizations try to implement a management methodology, like the Balanced Scorecard, in order to improve performance and meet the shifting needs of the marketplace.
When developing a scorecard, the organization identifies what it believes are the key performance indicators that are driving the business. And while it is easy enough to formulate a plan with shared goals and teamwork, realizing and executing on that plan can be more challenging.
During every step of this process, from communicating the goals, to identifying KPIs, to executing on the strategy, requires attention to change management.
How does an organization move toward a unified set of objectives when that means getting collaboration between departments and functions that typically compete for attention, turf, and resources?
Do you have any examples of how Organizational Change Management was effectively used to better the cooperation and interaction between departments? Were there any good lessons learned?
Bob

Hi Bob,
We have used the "Portfolio" approach effectively to address the competing needs of various departmernts,functions.
A portfolio of the plans / initiatives under progress with the details in terms of money,Time etc is drawn and discussed in the workshop of the stake holders.The dependencies are also identified and discussed in detail.This is signed-off.
Based on the above it is easy to draw a heat map in terms of sensitivity and significance.This largely helps in bringing under control the competing departments etc.
If still the problem exists or in case of a tie,we can apply other constraints like money-cost of capital-,pay back period,skill set requirement, higher ROI relevant to a particular plan etc.
If we apply the yard stick logically in terms of the "value creation",the job of change management is half done.
In practice i have seen the delayed execution of the plans,the quality problems,the delayed collection of cash,bad relationship with the client really upset our plan.There should be a good governance in these areas.In a portfolio of "Resource constrained projects" the above will have a telling effect.
Lesson learned:
The Managers who fight for priority on logical reasoning in fact do good to the firm.They bring in the scenarios -often real time-and potray the effect.On the other hand the pliable Managers accept to every thing resulting in to missed oppurtunities, abnormal idleness in terms of idle time,idle resources,thus allow changes to happen at a very high price.In the process they inflict an irreversible damage.
Often the "good will" considerations prevail,meaning,even if the project is ranked last in the portfolio,if the customer is powerful or is potentially important from a future point of view,then these low ranked projects pierce thro' the filter at the cost of the "good ones" to the detriment of the organization.The significant side effect is,the performing departments get demoralized,frustrated with the poor allocation of the resources,delay etc.This sets a domino,which may threaten the very "business continuity".Resource buffering is essential to counter these.
In Change Management "For every Prize,there is a Price".This has to be examined from the value perspective.otherwise we are lost.

accordingly look for the base key figures for the same. I would not put a finger to many , but essentially for finance look at FI data - especially GL postings , cost center postings , AR/AP etc
for Customer Service - CRM data would help , Sales Data - SD - invoices , orders etc
Internal - HR
business processes - depends on the system
Also the key figures for the same depends on the business rather than a generic business model that would fit all. First you will have to study the business process and understand the business rules and operating conditions before proceeding.

Periodization - SEM Balance Scorecard

Hi,
We are implementing SEM Balance Scorecard and have a problem with periodization.
We are using Fiscal Variant V6 and the problem we are experiencing is that the Calculated and Restricted Key Figures feeding through to BSC is not calculating the KPI for each period.
Let's say our current period is 7 and the calculation for Labour turnover is defined as all Personnel Actions, that is Terminations for all 7 periods, divided by the average of all active employees, taken over 7 periods for the calculation of the average.
What we are expecting is a 'moving average' calculation that is different from period to period. Our column graph for the KPI is displaying the same value for each period 1 - 7, the value calculated for period 7 according to the definition of the the formula, which is incorrect. Could you please assist?
Regards

Hi,
I don't know how this would be done. I have some basic knowledge of the functioning of the virtual key figure but I don't see how I'd be able to calculate this.
At the moment I have a restricted key figure with amount, fiscal year variant, fiscal year period and value type.
I have a variable on fiscal year period to culmulate the values to the current period but the overall result for all 7 period are displayed even for period one.
% Operating Expenditure is calculated as actual costs / planned costs. How would this be done with a virtual key figure please?

Balance scorecard material or documentation

Hi everybody,
I need material or documentation about the following topics:
- Platform required to have the Balance Scorecard. We have the ECC5.0 (ERP 2004) version and we haven't seen these tools (Which includes SAP_BW 3.5 component). If I'm not wrong the SAP module is SEM-CPM but I don't know what do we have to do to have it in our system.
- Steps required to build a Balance Scorecard from a system which only has installed the FI-CO modules.
Thanks in advance.
Ismael

Hi
The SEM BSC (Balanced scorecard ) is a BW add -in. The SEM BSC exists as a componernt on a BW datawarehouse.
So ask you basis about your BW installation.
After a Bw installation you could install and populate the standard business content ( infocubes, extractor,s etc) that are going to populate your SEM BCS balance scorecard environment.
THe BSC are basically a type of view on BW KPI - technically Key figures...

Balanced scorecards Vs DBI

Hello All,
I wanted to know the basic difference between 'Balanced Scorecards' and 'Daily Business Intelligence' DBI. How they relate to each other?
or, is DBI later version to Balanced Scorecards? Can somebody let me know about this?
I'd appreciate all your inputs/ideas on this.

Balanced Scorecard and DBI are two separate products of Oracle.
Balanced Scorecard is an analytical tool.
There is a Oracle Balanced Scorecard solution delivered in 11i and R12 releases.
Latter other Balanced Scorecard solutions came under Oracle such as PeopleSoft Balanced Scorecard, Hyperion Balanced Scoecard.
DBI is a intelligence solution. The core of DBI is BIS (Business Intelligence). Most of the Oracle Apps products used to support DBI which provides reporting and intelligence solution.

Hello Ashok,
In my opinion, this tool cannot be used in Business Objects.
Our [end user documentation|http://service.sap.com/~form/sapnet?_SHORTKEY=01100035870000713358&_SCENARIO=01100035870000000202&] does not have any comment. I recommend to post this query to the [BusinessObjects Enterprise Administration|BI Platform; forum.
This forum is dedicated to topics related to administration and configuration of BusinessObjects Enterprise, BusinessObjects Edge, and Crystal Reports Server.
It is monitored by qualified technicians and you will get a faster response there.
Also, all BOE Administration queries remain in one place and thus can be easily searched in one place.

Appraisal Form and Balanced Scorecard Integration

Dear Experts,
We are using an SAP R/3 4.7 system where we are running the Objective Settings and Appraisals. The requirement is to fetch the objectives stored in the Balanced Scorecard for the concerned org. unit; into the appraisal form, so as to allow the appriasee to choose from the Balanced Scorecard objectives as KRAs.
What are the steps required to do so? How do I integrate SAP R/3 HR PMS and Balanced Scorecard.
Edited by: AXE on Jul 7, 2009 11:48 AM

Balance Scorecard is part of SEM-CPM (Strategic Enterprise Management - Corporate Performance Management).
You need to extract the data from HR into BW and the data resides in infocubes.
You need to use these infocubes in order to populate data in Balance Scorecard.

Ravi

Web Cockpit developent (SEM-CPM or VC or something else)

This question is intended for SAP Development team or Product management team. We are looking to make a strategic decision about the tool set to build BI Cockpit on the Web.
SAP has competing technologies, which can deliver the cockpit on the web and as a customer we need to make a choice that is right for at least next 3-5 years. We do not want to develop the cockpit using the technology that is not moving ahead with SAP development.
Our current environment: BW 3.5, EP 5.0 system. Plan to upgrade EP 6.0 in next 3 month.
As per my understanding, following are the tools that can be used for development of web cockpit.
1) Web Application Designer with or without any Java scripting.
2) SEM-CPM (Corporate Performance Monitor).
3) BSP (Business Server Pages) /HTMLB -
4) Visual Composer with EP.
Customers business team has seen SEM-CPM and inclined to use that. As a IT team we want to choice the right tool set.
Following are my questions:
1) SEM-CPM: Does it have good foot print at SAP Customer base? Is it good tool to develop the Cockpits as primary tool set? Is SAP developing this technology in the future? I have not seen any updated white paper or documentations in service.sap.com after 2003.
OR
2) Visual composer is the right tool. Visual composer allows the BW and Non BW Data presentation. For our purpose, all data will be in BW and BW queries will be the only source for the cockpit.
As IT team, we want to avoid using Java Script or other programming process because of the support & maintenance issues involve.
Please help and provide comment or suggestions.

Hi,
SEM-CPM is not a very flexible tool. We have to live with its limitations. We cannot customise to suit client needs. There are limitations in chart types also. If customer uses excel based charts for metrics currently, check whether they are possible thro' CPM. Please also check the latest version of SEM-CPM.
I would request to considering other alternatives as suggested ike Web cockpit based on Web Application Designer with or without any Java scripting.likes or BSP (Business Server Pages) /HTMLB or VC (not worked on this).
