SNP Life Cycle Process

Hi 2all SAP Ppl
Could please any one explain what the complete process of SNP i mean right from getting Forecast
in to SNP .what processes will carry out in SNP up to end of SNP cycle.
Please help me out your help will be greatful,anticipation for u experts help.
Thanking u

Hi Ronald,
As required, more details and explanations as below.
1) SNP is a rought cut planning cycle
2) It involves 3 engines heuristic, ctm and optimiser
3) It basically plans for infinite planning and in some cases finite too
4) It has engines capable of producing optimised results with huge
constraints taken into account
5) It works based on master data like resource, product, location,
quota, transportation lane, costs etc.,
6) SNP plans based on DP output as forecast
7) Using forecast, it plans for production, procurement and distributes
its planning results
8) The SNP planning outputs are in the form of purchase requisitions
and planned orders
9) The outputs are again (optional) sent to PPDS for further detailed
planning (depends on the scenario)
10) Capacity levelling is part of SNP life cycle process to level the
bucket outputs
11) Optimiser basically considers costs into account for planning
12) Transportation lanes are basically maintained for Deployment
and TLB generations
13) In SNP, system tries to compensate between demand Vs
supplies.
Hope it is more clear to you now.
Please confirm

Guided Procedures - for long life cycle processes ?

Not sure if this is the right forum, but my question is about using GP for a business process that we would expect to last more than a year from initiation to completion.
The feedback I'm getting (from SAP sources) is that GP are for "short term processes". I'm curious now as to why this should be. I didn't think it could be a technical limitation, because persistance could be achieved through a call via the CAF to the backend system.
And from my preliminary research in SDN, although simple scenarios are exampled, GP seems a product for the "front-end" (as opposed to ccBPM) where all types of cross application and ERP independant workflows resides.
Thoughts, anyone ?
Phil

Thanks for the enthusiastic replies!
Here's the scenario: I have to replace an existing change management workflow of regulatory approvals for pharmaceutical production. The point with these and other processes is that the activities happens outside the workflow, and the system is used to bring to attention of approvers various document, get ER/ES validation for the step, report on progress for the different proposals. There a lot of "white space" while a change is under evaluation, under planning, document submission etc.
I'm currently evaluating options. R/3 is out because strategically we don't want to develop bespoke solutions "from the ground up" (and there is no reference object), but package solutions are OK - if configuration (by a BPX?) is possible.
There is a great demand for easy to build process automation applications, and there are some very good packages from other vendors in this space. So, I thought CAF-GP would be ideal, nice Java front-end, easy configuration, open architecture to interface with R/3 ECM and Documentum, for example.
Is it a case of it being positioned short of where it could be, despite of it having huge potential?

Component life cycle doesn't apply to objects created w/in ActionScript block??

i don't understand why init() is never called. typically one can initialize variables in the constructor, but since this is mxml, the constructor is automatically created for us and the programmer seems to have no access or override privileges. so what to do?? am i failing to grasp some aspect of the component life cycle process?? how should i go about initializing properties??
--------------------------- Main.mxml -----------------------------
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<s:Application xmlns:fx="http://ns.adobe.com/mxml/2009"
         xmlns:s="library://ns.adobe.com/flex/spark"
         xmlns:mx="library://ns.adobe.com/flex/halo">
<fx:Script>
    <![CDATA[
      import components.MyComp;
      [Bindable] private var myComp:MyComp = new MyComp();
    ]]>
</fx:Script>
<s:Label text="{myComp.myString}"
       horizontalCenter="0" verticalCenter="0"/>
</s:Application>
------------------------ components/MyComp.mxml ---------------------------------------
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<s:Group xmlns:fx="http://ns.adobe.com/mxml/2009"
     xmlns:s="library://ns.adobe.com/flex/spark"
     xmlns:mx="library://ns.adobe.com/flex/halo"
     initialize="init()">
<fx:Script>
    <![CDATA[
      [Bindable] public var myString:String = "hello, world!";
      private function init():void {
        myString = "hello, cruel world!";
    ]]>
</fx:Script>
</s:Group>
NOTE: the code above might seem a little ridiculous, but that's b/c i reduced it down. imagine a baseComponent and derivedComponent where the myString has a default value in the base case and needs to be overridden in the derived case. appreciate any insights and thanks,

Thanks Corey and Mike
I suppose I should have been more aware about when the initialize event gets dispatched -- the concept just wasn't registering for me and I was totally miffed about how to initialize variables on construction.
Do you have to initialize before the instance is added to the display list?
Yes, I was mixing both mxml and AS classes and the derived classes had no display objects to attach to the stage (they were mostly classes made to modify run time behavior). You can check out my previous post, which gives the code for where or why this might be needed.
I ended up initializing mxml class variables during construction in the following way:
------------------------------ classes/BaseClass.as ------------------------------
package classes
public class BaseClass
    public var myString:String = "hello, world";
    public function BaseClass() {
      init();
    protected function init():void {
      // intentionally left empty
------------------------------ classes/DerivedClassI.mxml ------------------------------
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<classes:BaseClass xmlns:fx="http://ns.adobe.com/mxml/2009"
         xmlns:s="library://ns.adobe.com/flex/spark"
         xmlns:mx="library://ns.adobe.com/flex/halo"
         xmlns:classes="classes.*"
         myString="hello, cruel world!">
</classes:BaseClass>
------------------------------ classes/DerivedClassII.mxml ------------------------------
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<classes:BaseClass xmlns:fx="http://ns.adobe.com/mxml/2009"
           xmlns:s="library://ns.adobe.com/flex/spark"
           xmlns:mx="library://ns.adobe.com/flex/halo"
           xmlns:classes="classes.*">
<fx:Script>
    <![CDATA[
      override protected function init() : void {
        myString = "hello, cruel cruel world!";
    ]]>
</fx:Script>
</classes:BaseClass>
------------------------------- Main.mxml ------------------------------
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<s:Application xmlns:fx="http://ns.adobe.com/mxml/2009"

Accounting entries for OTC life cycle

Hi Guys,
I was wondering if anyone of u can explain me the complete accounting entries that get credited and debited....right from booking an order till reconcilation (the whole OTC life cycle).
Thanks & Regards,
Ravi.

All looks good but there can be exceptions if you introduce two variables:
1. Invoicing Rules and Acconting Rules. These will affect your accouting in AR (Invoicing Rule will affect your Receivables and Accounting rule will affect the revenue accounting).
2. If you are on R12, there is Customer acceptance process that will change the accounting on both COGS and Revenue accounting a little bit but the final entry remains the same as you mentioned.
Forgot to mention: In someones blog on in Metalink's section where customer's documents are uploaded in knowledge base, I found a decent document that can help you with some more information.
Thanks

What is the average duration of 1 full SAP life cycle or 1 end-to-end implementation. How long does it take to prepare DEV, QAS and PRD?

What is the average duration of 1 full SAP life cycle or 1 end-to-end implementation. How long does it take to prepare DEV, QAS and PRD in any company?

Anand,
let me start with saying that the question you ask may not help you to determine the duration of your project. As Ryan and others stated the duration of the project is highly dependent on the scope of the solution you are implementing, geographical scope, amount of modifications/enhancements, number of languages, number of users that need to be trained, amount of standard processes customer is able to re-use in the implementation and many other factors (like quality of implementation contractor you will chose and availability of customer and implementors resources). I can probably go on for another couple lines, but I guess you get the idea.
With that out of the way let's talk about some example implementations that will give you an idea - Ryan did great job outlining what I would call traditional approach above. I have couple examples where customers leveraged innovative deployment strategies that are available today. In particular the project teams leveraged pre-packaged services like RDS, World Template or Best Practices as their baseline solution and they built from there. Second acceleration technique customers now leverage is the deployment in the SAP HANA Enterprise Cloud to accelerate the time to initial setup of the system and thus move from traditional blueprinting to scope validation exercise that further shortens the time. There are other acceleration techniques we see applied in some cases like use of iterative implementation of the delta requirements on top of the baseline solution.
Let me offer few examples to illustrate what I explained above:
ERP implementation at Schaidt Innovations with 3 months long deployment of ERP solution using ERP RDS as a baseline (you can view their testimonial here - Schaidt Innovations: SAP ERP on HANA in the cloud - YouTube)
Customer in Asia with global template deployment that leveraged SAP ERP for Manufacturing with deployment to cloud and 9 countries rollout (Japan, Korea, China, Taiwan, Hong Kong, UK, Germany and US). The initial deployment took 4 months for first country and 2 months for rollout into the additional 8 countries - so total of 6 months. The original plan using traditional approach with full blueprint and heavy configuration was estimated to be more than double of the actual deployment time.
There are many other examples where customers follow the assemble-to-order delivery model for their project and gain significant benefits doing so. I suggest you to review some of the recordings we did in 2013 about this approach and if you are member of ASUG review the Agile ASAP sessions we did for ASUG PM SIG.

Life cycle of a web dynpro callable object

What is the life cycle of a web dynpro callable object.
Means when that Web dynpro callble object is used in a GP process which method of that component called first and what is the sequence of the method execution in that.
Can anyone please explain me.

Sorry ritu there was one mistake in the above two replies.
The actual execution of the methods when a callable objects is get executed is as following
1.component controller's init() method
2. interface's init() method
3.view's init() method.
4.interface's execute() method
5.view's wDoModifyView() method.
If you want to change anything on your view according to the change in the interfac's execute method.
Then you have to do that coding in view's wDoModifyView() method.

What is the total life cycle involved in any project

Hi ,
Can n e body help me in knowing the complete life cycle of any project.
Starting from the point customer wants to implement SAP for their business to implementation and support.
thanks in advance,
sastry

Dear Sastry,
It actually depends on various factors, such as :
1. how many modules they want to implement.
2. Team Size.
3. Organizational Structure (Volume of data)
4. Legacy System
5. Business Complexity etc.
There is no hard and fast rule that every project should be completed in a particular duration of time. Depending on the above factors, it may vary any where from 6 months to 18 months or so. (Approximately, it may be less than 6 months or more than 18 months in some exceptional cases).
Usually it is divided into phases:
1. Project Preparation : Project team, infrastructure, Software, Steering committe etc will be identified in this phase.
2. Business Blue Print : Re-engineering of Business process and BBP sign off.
3. Realization : Analysing Gap and Realization of possible customization and development effort
4. Final Preparation : Development and Configuration
5. Go Live and Post Go Live support : Going Live and Support after go live
You would allot specific time periods for each of these phases and will set milestones accordingly.
or it could even be like :
Project Start
Analysis
Design
Design Freeze / Client Sign-off
Construction
Testing
Implementation
Project End
Project Management Framework
Post Close Review
Training
Change Management

Servlet life cycle/Singleton pattern/synchronized

I have some questions about the life cycle of a servlet and the use of synchronozed.
We have a main controller class that is extended from HTTPServlet and accepts all HTTP requests. It in turn instantiates another class to do the work. That class eventually returns control to the main controller and the request is forwarded. It is a typical MVC.
1. Once the helper class is instantiated how long will it live? We never destroy the class. I can debug the class using JBuilder and see variables set from the previous access.
2. While the class is in memory, if two or more requests are requiring the use of it, is a copy of the class created and used by each request. These particular classes are not instantiated as 'private static' instances.
3. If no copy is made, will the requests wait for the other to finish its processing before it gains control of the class. If no, I am assuming that proper use of synchronized will eliminate any issues.
4. Anyone have advice on where and when to synchronize or do you know of any good articles on this topic.
Thanks in advance for any advice you can give.

Hello,
Many of your question depends on where you declare the helper class, so here it goes:
1) The helper class will stay in memory as long as it's scope lasts. Ie: If you declare it as an instance member of the servlet it will stay alive until the servlet is unloaded by the application engine.
2) In short, local and parameter members, yes. Instance members no.
3) Most servlet configurations servers multiple requests on the same servlet. So if your helper class is an instance member it can be accessed be multipe threads at the same time. You can also declare that your servlet is not thread safe and the application engine will create multiple copies of it instead.
4) Er... Have a look around. I'm sure there are several examples and tutotrials on this site alone.
Yours

SAP HCM Life Cycle

Hi Expert,
Can anyone help me with the life cycle stages of SAP HCM.
I have a student who asked me what is the concept of SAP HCM, I explained about where was it started, what is the architecture, why is SAP preferred against other applications, modules covered, logic of integration... I would like to know if I am missing on anything as far as Concept is concerned.
Thank you in Advance.
Sejal

Hi,
There is nothing as such called lifecycle of SAP HCM.
It is similar to an ERP application, and basically your organization first decides which of the ERP module they are going to implement, once they have decided to go for HCM, they wil opt for it.
Again in HCM it depens on customer which module he is going to implement and HCM is vast it inlcudes PA, OM, TIME, PAYROLL, BENFITS, TRAVEL MANAGEMENT, LSO, Performance management, HR Forms and Processes etc.
This implmentation has a life cycle - like
Requirement gathering, Blue printing, Realization, implementatin (Configuration and coding), Custom implemenation, Integration if required, Testing (includes, UT, SIT and User acceptance testing), Documentation and hence Go Live.
This is a huge process and requires domain / business / technical/ functional / Quality / Knowledge experts.
Hope it helps you.
Thanks & Regards, Swapnil Mishra

What is step by step in real time project i.e. end-to-end life cycle?

what is step by step in real time project i.e. end-to-end life cycle?

Hi Vamsi,
The below explanation gives you an idea of what is going to come after what in a software development.
These below stages are know as Software Development Life Cycle/Waterfall Model.
1. System/Information Engineering and Modeling
As software is always of a large system (or business), work begins by establishing the requirements for all system elements and then allocating some subset of these requirements to software. This system view is essential when the software must interface with other elements such as hardware, people and other resources. System is the basic and very critical requirement for the existence of software in any entity. So if the system is not in place, the system should be engineered and put in place. In some cases, to extract the maximum output, the system should be re-engineered and spruced up. Once the ideal system is engineered or tuned, the development team studies the software requirement for the system.
2. Software Requirement Analysis
This process is also known as feasibility study. In this phase, the development team visits the customer and studies their system. They investigate the need for possible software automation in the given system. By the end of the feasibility study, the team furnishes a document that holds the different specific recommendations for the candidate system. It also includes the personnel assignments, costs, project schedule, target dates etc.... The requirement gathering process is intensified and focussed specially on software. To understand the nature of the program(s) to be built, the system engineer or "Analyst" must understand the information domain for the software, as well as required function, behavior, performance and interfacing. The essential purpose of this phase is to find the need and to define the problem that needs to be solved .
3. System Analysis and Design
In this phase, the software development process, the software's overall structure and its nuances are defined. In terms of the client/server technology, the number of tiers needed for the package architecture, the database design, the data structure design etc... are all defined in this phase. A software development model is thus created. Analysis and Design are very crucial in the whole development cycle. Any glitch in the design phase could be very expensive to solve in the later stage of the software development. Much care is taken during this phase. The logical system of the product is developed in this phase.
4. Code Generation
The design must be translated into a machine-readable form. The code generation step performs this task. If the design is performed in a detailed manner, code generation can be accomplished without much complication. Programming tools like compilers, interpreters, debuggers etc... are used to generate the code. Different high level programming languages like C, C++, Pascal, Java are used for coding. With respect to the type of application, the right programming language is chosen.
5. Testing
Once the code is generated, the software program testing begins. Different testing methodologies are available to unravel the bugs that were committed during the previous phases. Different testing tools and methodologies are already available. Some companies build their own testing tools that are tailor made for their own development operations.
6. Maintenance
The software will definitely undergo change once it is delivered to the customer. There can be many reasons for this change to occur. Change could happen because of some unexpected input values into the system. In addition, the changes in the system could directly affect the software operations. The software should be developed to accommodate changes that could happen during the post implementation period.
Reward if helpful.
Thankyou,
Regards.
