Using ARIS process models as the foundation for Business Process Monitoring

Hello,
Do anyone know if you can use IDS Scheer ARIS process models and the integration between IDS Scheer ARIS and SAP Solution Manager as the starting point for end-to-end Business Process Monitoring (BPM) so that you get the process description/model automatically in Solution Manager BPM and just need to configure the monitoring (more or less that you monitor against the modelled process in ARIS)?
Is there an API for SAP Solution Manager BPM so that non-SAP solutions/systems can be part of the end-to-end process monitoring?
If not, how do you usually integrate non-SAP solutions that are part of an end-to-end process that you want to monitor into SAP Solution Manager BPM, or do you not use Solution Manager BPM for this?
What is the roadmap for SAP around SAP Solution Manager BPM when it comes to non-SAP systems/applications/solutions and the new SAP NetWeaver BPM functionality?
Regards,
Markus Johansson

Hello Markus,
I just paste my answer form the other forum entry Re: Business process management strategy in SAP?
in a nutshell BPM Netweaver is focussing on so called edge-processes (usually
SOA-based and often workflow related). These edge-processes a thought to enhance exisitng core business processes and should provide the fast competitive edge versus competitors. Examples would be also xApps. For this Netweaver provides process modelling tools, where you can get exectuable code through the integration between CE and PI. The monitoring part for these processes is mainly targeting business end-users and business manager.
Business Process Monitoring with Solution Manager focusses on core business processes which are realized with the "conventional", "old" SAP Architecture, e.g. Order-to-Cash or Procure-to-Pay. You get a combination of technical monitors (average response times of transactions, background job runtimes, monitors for IDOC or qRFC processing) and application related monitors (you get more than 200 pre-configured application monitors out-of-the-box like number of overdue customer orders or outbound deliveries or number of deliveries with goods issue posted but no invoice). The target group here is the support organization of the customer, from Basis-Support over application support on IT side to process owner on business department side.
Overview presentations can be found under
https://service.sap.com/bpm --> Media Library --> Customer Information -->
"Business Process Monitoring - Part 1 & 2".
Or look under https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/sdn/nw-processmonitoring
In the end BPM Netweaver and BPMon SolMan are complementary for different purposes and different target groups.

  • Effective Language for Business Process Modelling in a Web Community

    It's a very exciting idea of having business process definition/innovation a community driven process.
    Just Imagine a stituation where somebody can innovate a process on a theoritical level which is then perfected by   business community opinion/examples for benchmarking, effectiveness, relevance etc.
    The ultimate business community dream would be Finding their process in the community. Finding merits and demerits of their process. Explore for a refinement to the process. Getting a copy of their newly created process and
    droping it into their IT system and the wonderful IT system upgrading itself to the new process and executing it.
    The Impact of simplification would be enormous:
    Just check out the possibilities
    Every businessman would be an IT user to get ideas for business and business execution
    The IT Guy would be recognized as process maker
    For a business entity Presentation during AGM could be extra transparent :-).
    A very concrete step in this direction would be to have a language or tool which is very easy to understand and drives people for exploration.
    My Wish would be a Visual web tool which defines a specific business process in the most simple form, and from there somebody can explore the enhancements to the process.
    For example a simple selling process done in medicine shop is
    listening the order verbally , delivering it immediately, getting cash immediately and [typing the Invoice on XL or Word or POS machines], printing it and then giving to Customer.
    after selecting this business process on the tool one should be able to explore the possible process
    enhancements with known business benefits
    like
    a) offer credit facility to customer--> just a worklist to collect pending money
    b) take order now and supply later for non available medicines
    c)Start home delivery
    The businessman should be able to select (1) or (2) which then becomes his new process.
    This can be sent to his IT landscape which should be able to interprete it and then grow itself Ah.... 
    dreaming
    [or atleast the model should tell the IT guy what to do!!].
    The generic business Process enhancements Options are not too many and can be defined and classified
    See the Options in the above mentioned business process context
    1)Automation[Create Purchase order from ]
    2)Increasing depth [The above example a,b,c are for increasing depth]
    3)Step simplification[In the above example instead of word using the POS Machine is simple]
    4)Resource utilization[If you have a PC and don't want to buy POS Machine then type the invoice on a Word :-)]
    5)Delegation
    5)Workforce optimization {any examples :-)community driven}
    7)Process optimization (How to deliver the medicine route wise)
    8)Colloboration (Using courier to send medicine)
    9)Knowledge provision (giving sales/payment trends,)
    The idea is so simple but making this tool highiely context(business) sensitive and intuitive is challenge.
    But anyway it's not impossible to have a business process language which is effective and an IT systems for which starting point is a business process. The IT system which takes your business process and executes them
    wonderfully.
    looking forward for this future

    Hi Dilip,
    Thanks a lot for your reply.
    I'm also interested to know from community what are different tools used by them for process modelling?
    What are their merits?
    1)are they easily understandabale
    2) do they come with business context
    3)whether they can be used in a web comunity? Like somebody can give feedback or business case for a particular business process/step.
    4)Does it drive the IT automation
    5)Are there any appservers which take business model and generate/grow applications
    6)How the different modelling applications should communicate?
    7)Common standards
    For example
    I have used rational rose and RAD like VB they are complicated/simple enough to generate model based applications but the business representation and business context is totally missing. I would seek something with more business context or knowledgebase.

  • I am considering getting an iphone...  Which model is the best for me to get?

    I am considering getting an iphone... I do not care about getting the "latest gadget", but have all apple products and would love the convenience of the calendar, music, camera, etc... on my phone. Which model is the best for me to get?
    Is it really worth it for the newest (and most expensive) model, or is the 3G sufficient for regular use? or is the 4 now the most basic model I should invest in? or do I really have to get the 4S?

    We have developed a desktop application using Flash software and published the same for MAC environment. When we double click on the index.app file, the application is working perfectly in Mac 10.6.7 at our office. But if the same index.app file is double clicked in Mac 10.6.7 at out clients location, its not opening. For your information the client is able to open this same application by double clicking on index.swf file. The main problem is that client is not able to open the application using index.app file at their office whereas we are able to do so at our office. Can anyone give some suggestions to sort this problem?

    The most common reason is different versions of Flash, or different versions of web browsers used.  Some users may elect to not have Flash installed at all because of the processor overhead of Flash.  If you are going to make an application for a client, check what operating system and browser versions they are using first.  Then determine if a stand alone application is required, or if they have the necessary plugins to run specific browser enhanced code.
    P.S. MAC is an acronym for Media Access Control.  Mac is the shorthand for Macintosh, the operating system and computers made by Apple Inc.

  • I receive both My husbands emails and mine through my ipad. We both have gmail accounts.  His emails are coming down on the ipad but not mine.  I haven't received mail since Saturday and as we use the email for business I desperately need it.

    I receive both My husbands emails and mine through my ipad. We both have gmail accounts.  His emails are coming down on the ipad but not mine.  I haven't received mail since Saturday. We use the email for business I desperately need it and I don't have a laptop anymore as it is broken.   In my wisdom I desired to buy an ipad instead,  what a mistake.

    The iPad will support multiple Gmail accounts, but of course you have to set each one up individually.  Did you set up both accounts?  Go into Settings/ Mail, Contacts, Calendars to confirm both accounts exist.  If they do, also familiarize yourself on how to navigate between accounts to make sure you can view your Inbox.  You may also want to check your settings to make sure that you have the default account set up as you expect for Mail, Contacts, Calendar, and Notes (if you're using all those features).  That is important only when initiating something new, you have to have a default account to do such a thing so make sure the default is your account since it is your iPad (assuming that's what you want).
    Alternatively, install the free Gmail app and then use only his (or your) account with that app and use the standard iOS Mail app for the other account.

    I have an iphone 4 with videos on it that I'd like to transfer to an IMac so that I can email them.  (the iphone isn't in use anymore.)  What's the procedure for transfering videos from an iphone to an iMac?

    Connect the iPhone to your Mac with its USB cable and launch iPhoto.  In iPhoto you can select which files to upload into the library.  Once in the library export them out of iPhoto to a folder on the Desktop via File ➙ Export ➙ File Export  with Kind=Original. That will give you copies of the videos in the folder for use outside of iPhoto.
    If you want to bypass importing into iPhoto try launching Image Capture and manually upload the selected video files to the folder of your choice.

  • Itunes shows album in library but tells me I am not authorised to use it - I go through the whole id authorisation process and it still says the same, I purchased it three email addresses ago.

    Itunes shows an album in library but tells me I am not authorised to use it - I go through the whole id authorisation process and it still says the same, I purchased it three email addresses ago.

    What do you mean three email addresses ago? Do you mean that you've had three accounts in the store with three separate email addresses? Purchases must be authorized according the account details under which they were purchased. You can Get Info on the tracks and see the account name they were purchased with. Also...a missing shared folder can prevent authorization. See here: http://support.apple.com/kb/ts1277

  • The Prerequisites for releasing process order

    Hi all,
    What are the Prerequisites for releasing process order?
    Can we issue the material against process order, if it is on CRTD status?

    Hi,
    Prerequiste for REL of Process Order -
    Process order should have CRTD status.
    Other with IMG setting, you can have order status directly REL once it is created also. See Prod Sch Profile setting.
    You cannot do goods posting (GI and GR) unless order is REL status. Not possible with CRTD status.

  • What could be the reason for Crawl process to take long time or get in to a hung state.

    Hi All,
    What could be the reason for Crawl process to take long time or get in to a hung state? Is it something also related to the DB Server resources crunch? Does this lead to Index file corruption?
    What should be the process to be followed when index file is corrupted? How do we come to know about that?
    Thanks in Advance.

    I had to restore my iPhone and now  I cannot use my iTunes stored on the phone for an alarm or ringtone.

    yes did you buy it of somebody or a well known company such as apple or carphone warehouse?
    and i mean the phone would have been activated in the first place with the sim card you get given when you first get the phone.
    trying to activate the phone with another sim card that you did not get when you brought the phone may result in you not being able to activate it
    no worries

    Thanks for your quick reply Klaus. I forgot to mention that I live in Northern Ireland but will be flying from Dublin in the Republic of Ireland so I'm not sure that this will be an issue as I don't hold an Irish passport, therefore how can they charge me their form of VAT? Maybe they can, I just don't know,

    Hi Bharat,
    Thanks for posting your query, 
    All versions of SharePoint support workflows based on windows workflow foundation. SharePoint Server includes some predefined advanced workflows such as Approval, Collect feedback, Collect signatures. WSS 3.0 and SharePoint foundation contains simple "3

  • Error in actual template allocation for Business Process

    Gurus,
    I am facing a strange problem in actual template allocation for business process (T-code: CPAS). When I am doing a test run, the system gives the result with a message "Processing completed with no errors", However when I have unchecked the test run and ran the allocation, system shows me the result, however no posting takes place. The message I am getting is:
    "Data not updated due to errors". The details of this error message are:
    No information was found
    Message no. GU444
    Diagnosis
    The system could not find the necessary information.
    I am absolutely clueless and have no idea where things have gone wrong. I have maintained the activity and cost center properly. The template I am using is also ok.
      Request your help on this. Any suggestion would be highly appreciated.
    Thanks in advance!
    Snigdho.

    Hi ,
    With such kind of error " "Data not updated due to errors". " its very difficult so determine the exact cause of the issue .
    Did your selection parameters in CPAS has a tick on detailed list . Please tick the detailed list icon and run KPAS again and let me know if you are getting more detailed error from SAP.

  • Roles for Business Process Monitoring

    Hi Expert,
    I'm working with sap solution manager and Business Process Monitoring.
    It works fine but I need to create particular roles for my users.
    I have created one solution with 2 business scenarios (scenario 1, scenario 2) and 10 Business Processes for each scenario.
    I would know if exist a role in order to allow user 1 to see only BP in  scenario 1 and allow user 2 to see only BP in  scenario 2.
    I saw roles: SAP_OP_DSWP_BPM and SAP_SMWORK_BPM but I didn't find any suitable authorization object to use.
    Thanks for collaboration
    best regards
    gio'

    Hi Giovanni,
    the answer is unfortunately no. There is no authorization object available that limits the visibility of business processes. You could only split by solution, so creating two solutions each containing 10 business processes.
    In general you can find information about roles and authorizations in SAP note 834534. There are several MS Excel files attached to this note.
    Best Regards
