How to integrate Solution manager with ARIS for Netweaver

Hi,
I have a requirement. Its like i have to configure and maintain documentations in SAP Solution Manager and also in ARIS for Netweaver.
Then i have to synchronize both of them .
I would appreciate if any one could help me out in integrating both of them.
I have steps on how to synchronize both of them but the integration part is missing.
Appreciate all your help..
Kripashankar.N

Hi there,
the integration is pretty easy, you simply:
--> start aris
--> go to the designer
--> create a database
--> login to the database
--> go to view/options
--> Open SAP-Options
--> Edit server info
--> then you can start synchronizing your project
hope this helps
cheers

Document transfer from Solution Manager into ARIS

We have sucessfully transfer projects content from Solman into ARIS. Unfortunatelly links to documents cannot be found. To my knowledge links from General documentation answell as from Project documentation should be able to find in ARIS after the transfer. Has anybody any ideas about this.
Kind regads

Hi,
Yes, either link to both "Gen. Documentation" and "Project Documentation" should be accessible. Or else, atleast either one of them should be accessible.
Some configuration is missing in ARIS side, which allows you to access this link from ARIS diagram.
best regds,

ARIS Solution manager synchronization error

Hi all,
we have integrated ARIS software with solution manager for the business process modelling.
the problem is data is getting synchronized from solution manager to ARIS. no error is coming.
but when we make some changes in the ARIS structure and tried to synchronize back to solution manager.
the changes are not getting reflected in solution manager.
kindly advice in this regard.
Regards,
Subhashini

Hi Solmaic,
Thanks for your reply.
ya that is what exactly is happening.
we have just now started working on ARIS. so we have synchronized a project from solution manager.
the possiblities we tried are
1. synchronized the project and changed the name of the project. and synchronized back but nothing is changed in solution manager.
2. Changed the anme of a scenario and changed a document and synchornized back but that change is also not reflected.
3. we have created a VACD, made the process type as scenario. but in the log we have got an information that it has skipped the scenario.
kindly guide in this regard.

Subhashini.

Solution Manager sync with ARIS

I believe I have done all the configuration to sync solution manager content with aris. I followed the instructions in the aris adminstration manual. I think I'm connecting ok with JCo, but I get the following error: function 'Z_SOLAR_READ_INSTALLED_COMPS'not found on SAP-Server
I have completed the transport of the two .sol files mentioned in the manual. Any ideas?
Thanks.

Hi,
look in SAP Function Builder and search for Z_SOLAR_READ_INSTALLED_COMPS. I'm sure, that your import failed or the function did not have been activated.
Here I have made a function test by my own (but for SAP ERP ECC6 - which is not the standard use). At the end of the article you can find the test method -> [ARIS BS 7.1 - VPN Handout|http://www.aris-user.de/aris/viewtopic.php?p=4722#4722]
So I rest with the best regrads

Problem with Aris and Solution Manager

Hi,
I'm trying to synchronize Aris and SAP Solution Manager.
I'm doing installation and configuration following Administration Guide
chap. 7 from Aris for Netweaver guide, but, I have a problem when I
try to transfer projects from Aris to SolMan.
In the main ARIS menu from ARIS Business Architecture for SAP NetWeaver>
Aris Network>LOCAL>Synchronization>Maingroup, a SAPLogon screen appears
to logon to SolMan system, ask for Client, User and PWD.
I put the same user/pwd that I use to logon to SolMan, but ARIS cannot
connect to, an error message appears "User or password incorrect".
Does anyone have idea about this problem??
Thanks

Mariana,
try changing your password to all CAPS in Solman.

Jason

ARIS + Solution Manager

Hi,
In my company they are planning to implement ARIS with SAP Solution Manager. I am trying to get some information regarding this. What are the benefits we get if we integrate ARIS with SAP solution manager and what are the pre-requisites to implement ARIS with SAP solution manager?
If you have some information about this please share with me
Thanks and Regards,
Sreekala.

Hi Sreekala,
To implement their corporate strategy and business requirements, companies need a fast and efficient way of mapping business processes and new business concepts to the SAP environment. Developing and designing a seamless value chain in terms of Business Processes Management is also a key requirement for adopting SAPu2019s service-oriented architecture (SOA).
ARIS Business Architect for SAP and the ARIS Value Engineering for SAP method provide procedure models, methods, technologies, and reference content that make the flexible enterprise a reality. These are the first of many practical customer benefits to be generated from the strategic development cooperation between SAP and IDS Scheer.
In SAP implementation or upgrade projects ARIS Business Architect for SAP enables enterprises to define business management requirements from a process perspective. Requirements are mapped using business process models and can be enriched with all the necessary additional information and subjected to analysis. The bidirectional interface to SAP Solution Manager enables the models to be constructed on the basis of SAP reference content for a process-based SAP solution. They can be seamlessly implemented in the SAP Solution Manager. A special BPEL interface to SAP NetWeaver Process Integration (SAP NW PI) supports end-to-end integration of existing IT systems.
These process models therefore represent an important aid to making business decisions, while also ensuring that the required processes can be implemented in the SAP system.
Your benefits:
Process-oriented and model-based requirements analysis and resulting business blueprint plus alignment of business processes with the SAP IT architecture.
Comparison and alignment of all end-to-end business processes with SAP reference processes using ARIS, SAP Solution Manager, and SAP NetWeaver Process Integration.
Integrated ARIS method ensures transparent documentation and communication of the processes to be implemented
End-to-end process-based tests.

Importing ARIS content to Solution Manager

Hi Colleagues,
I'm looking for information on posible restrictions to import ARIS content to Solution Manager.
Have anyone been through this and could share what challenges we could expect?
I found a document called "IMPORTING ARIS FOR NETWEAVER CONTENT INTO SOLUTION MANAGER" from Sukumar Natarajan but it just explain its steps.
Thanks a lot,
Renato Petrulis

Hello Renato,
To Import ARIS to Solman, you need have an install in solution manager, have a project created on tx solar_project_admin, have the ARIS Business Architect ready and follow the simple steps mentioned in the document you talked about.
Please reply for any other doubt,
Cheers,

ARIS - Solution Manager synchronization limitations

Hello,
I made simple demo and I noticed that there are several limitations in ARIS<->Solution Manager synchronization. Could You explain me some issues or tell how to solve them, that would be very helpful.
1. When I make model in SolMan and then import it to ARIS I have all elements and connections between them, but when I make changes to this model in ARIS, ex. Adding new element with connection,and export it back to Solman I have my old model with new element but without connection. Could you tell me how to export connections from ARIS to SolMan? What I might do wrong?
2. Where SolMan keeps all data about connetions between elements?
3. How can I do tree connection in ARIS (one element is connected to more than one element) and then import them to SolMan?
If You have any tutorials or documents about ARIS in SAP, please sent them to me, I will be grateful for Your help.

Hi Pawel Tomasik,
What you identified is correct. The connections are not syncronised with SAP Solution Manager. If you have Busienss Publisher avaliable in your organisation you can sync in such a way that the Process Model link is added as a documnet in Solution Manager.
Thanks and Regards,
Dinesh Ghanta

RE: Documentation with the help of ARIS or Solution manager ?

Good day to all,
We have a documentation requirement from one of our client.
The current situation is :
The client had implemented SAP about 5 years back but has no Documentation for the any of the Transactions, or any of the Zprogram that were created.
Now the requirement is to create documentations as well as need to relate it with a business Flow..
Currently their organization has ARIS as well as Solution manager.
How do we go about it ?. Any suggestions ?
Do they need XI to integrate it with ARIS ?
Please help me out on this one....
Many thanks in advance

The first thing to find out if the SSM is connected to ARIS (ARIS4Netweaver). This enables you to have the processlogic in ARIS and the implementation documentation in the SSM. This data can be synchronized so that the documentation can be called upon in ARIS.
For the evaluation regarding the usage of transactions etc, this can be done via ARIS redocumentation. This gives a complete overview of all transaction used in relation to the existing (or sap reference) database in ARIS. it is not restricted to standard SAP transaction, but also custom build transactions/programs are taken into account.
SAP Xi is not necessarry forthe integration between ARIS and SSM.

Import of Solution Manager reference data to ARIS

Hi all,
I would like to import SAP Solution Manager data to ARIS.
Is it possible to perform that simply importing a SolMan file including reference data to ARIS or do we need to create an interface between SolMan and ARIS?
We would like to do this in the most simple way as possible since it is for demo purposes only.
So if you have any idea please let me know.
Thanks,
//Anders

Anders,
I have done similar demos in the past. based on my experience I am giving a quick step by step procedure for doing this.
Create Project in SAP Solution Manager and define system landscape by choosing the
SAP components based on the selected scenarios.
(ii) Analyze and Select the content from the Solution Manager BPR based on the
finalized Scenarios/Processes.
(iii) Establish a Project Database on the ARIS Server and merge the As-Is Scenario/Process
from the existing ARIS DB into this.
(iv) Synchronize Solution Manager Project with ARIS and establish the link between
ARIS Project DB and SolMan.
(v) Perform analysis of the As-Is Process in conjunction with selected scenarios from Solution
Manager reference content and define the structure and scope.
(vi) Align the As-Is Process with the Reference Framework from Solution Manager and
add/delete steps as required.
(vii) The Business process architecture is adapted to the SAP Reference Content aligned to the
structural layers of Solution Manager (Scenario, Process and Process Step).
(viii) Synchronize the Business flows created in ARIS with Solution Manager and update
structure on both ends.
Hope this helps you. Let me know if you need anyother information.

Installation of Solution Manager

Please understand that I am very new at this so if this question causes a laugh then I do not mind - as long as I get the clarification of where I am going wrong smile.
I need to install solution manager on V5R4. According to the latest on SAP that is version 4.0. However what is available is DB2/400 ASCII.
I want to do a UNICODE installation and as far as I know ASCII is non unicode - is this correct? I also want to be on Netweaver 2005 and not 04 or 04s.

Hello Anette,
I hope the followings would help:
-Like Victor said, IBM has a 4 days training on SAP on iSeries. I took it this Febr. (in the U.S, so I don't know if they offer it in Europe, because there was a student came all the way from Denmark). The material is just a bit out dated, mainly on 6.20/6.40 and not on the 7.0, but the material provides enough info for starter.
- I just finished installing Sol Manager 4.0 on V5R3, and had a post in the forum.
You might search on it for reference. The folks in the forum are great help.
What I had learned was
1. make sure prepare your AS400 per IBM apar for SAP, have all require ***, data, hyper...in place.
2. Next is, for my situation because I am installing with Sol Magr SR1, so I need to patch ISERPACK8, nw04scontrolsr1, which you might not need if you are installing with Sol Mgr Sr2.
3. DO NOT edit/change master password at sumary page. We changed at parameter summary page and this caused problem.
4. if you got stuck with Java phases, install latest SAPJ2EE and DW patch.
5. oh yah, per recommandation, make sure to get the latest IBM JDBC driver from IBM website, I think it's JTOpen level 5.3
Other than that, the installation went very smooth.
I hope the info helps.
Good luck.
Elizabeth.

SAP EHP1 for Solution Manager 7.0 - Post Install Procedure

Hello Folks:
I completed Sol Manager 7.0 EHP1 installation on Win 2008 R2 with MS SQL in a sandbox environment. This is the first time I ever installed SAP on my own and i am in the process of performing post installation steps from Installation Guide.
In the install guide, there is no mention of creating a new client ex: 100. Could you please, provide a list of tasks that generally needed to perform after the installation is completed and before doing any configuration in Solution manager.
I have some very basic idea on the Basis but while going thru Installation Guide I am not sure if there any steps that generally need to perform to complete the installation. My goal is to complete the Sol Mgr installation first and then start preparing for ECC 6.0 Installation.
Thanks a lot in Advance.

Hi,
First - the basic post installation steps are:
1. sick t-code need to execute
2. se06 --> Perform Post-Installation Actions
3. RZ10 --> Utilities --> Import profiles --> Of active servers
4. execute sgen T-code --> This will take some time
5. setup STMS
6. create client (If custom required)
7. Take backup of the system
For the solution manager client you could use the default created '001' client.
Next you need to run the solman_setup template which 'sets up' the SolMan for usage.
Follow config guide at: https://service.sap.com/~sapidb/011000358700000308502009E.PDF
For installing the ECC system, only a install key(from SMSY) is to be generated from SolMan. But if you want to use the SolMan effectively, suggest you to run the entire solman_setup.
Regards,
Srikishan
