What is a Business Process Repository and where do we get it in SAP?

Hi,
What is a Business Process Repository and where do we get it in SAP?

Hi,
Here is an another way to look at the BPR-Business Process Repository delivered by SAP.
1. Add the Web Dynpro application Business Process Repository (BPR) to your Favorites:
2. Choose  Favorites  Add Other Objects  Web Dynpro Application  in the SAP initial screen.
3. Enter SM_BPR_OVERVIEW in the field Web Dynpro Application.
4. Enter a description like ex. SAP BPR
5. Save your changes.
6. Now Call the saved - Web Dynpro application SM_BPR_OVERVIEW
7. You can see the BPR in a new browser window.
This info is available in SAP Help on Solution Manager.
Hope this helps.

  • What is Oracle Web Services Manager  and where can i get more information ?

    Hi,
    Can any one point me to some useful links to know abt
    Oracle Web Services Manager and some example to play with it.
    Appreciate your help !!
    Regards,
    Vijay.B

    Vijay,
    You can install Oracle Web Services Manager (OWSM) as a stand alone product, but the easiest way would be to use the OracleAS SOA Suite Developer Preview, that contains all the SOA components (OWSM, J2EE, BPEL, ESB, ...)
    Oracle Application Server 10g Release 3 (10.1.3.1.0) Developer Preview for the Oracle SOA Suite

  • What is a Business Process Expert? and Business Analyst?

    In response to Sinem Dorter's very interesting and informative blog about Composite Analytics at Whirpool, I'd like to ask how people would really define what is going on there.
    Are modelers of composite applications business analysts? Business process experts? Application specialists? All of the above? None of the above?
    What unique skills are required to distinguish, say, a business analyst from a business process expert?
    And can a business process expert be a team of people: maybe an enterprise analyst, a business process expert and an IT application specialist?
    I'm curious to read responses.
    Judy

    Hi Judy,
    I agree with you. Sinems blog from Whirlpool is really interesting and well written.
    Thanks a lot that you have the courage to open the first discussion in relation to her blog.
    Now to your question what's the difference between a Business Process  Expert and a Business Analyst. 
    <u>Definition of a Business Analyst</u>
    Please find below a small  section of the Roles and Responsibility Matrix of SAP xApp Analytics . You will find it also in our OKP (Online Knowledge Product) of Analytics in Service Marketplace, alias rkt-analytics.
    - Responsible for assessing the business requirements
    - Communicate with the business users for project 
      requirements
    - Act as the critical link between end users’ business 
      requirements and data architecture solution together
      with the Application Developer
    - Possess and provide deep knowledge of current business
      scenarios such as: SAP BW Business Explorer Queries 
      and SAP CRM, SRM, MIC
    - Design and develop a data access solution
    - Understand SAP Analytics models and become an expert
      on Analytics
    - Conduct Analytics workshops
    - Create and provide business requirements documentation
    - Provide content “know-how” and knowledge transfer
      documentation
    <u>Definition of a Business Process Expert</u>
    Business process experts have the business knowledge and IT sway to make business process innovation happen in real time by adapting, composing, and executing end-to-end business processes using composition software tools and enterprise services. 
    SAP enables the business process expert to drive real-time business process innovation by providing a rich combination of industry business process and services content, and composition software tools from a proven business process platform.

    Now I am interested to hear what others say! 
    Also I am sure there are much more questions/comments regarding Sinems blog.
    Or do you have also experiences which you want to share with the BPX-Community?
    Don't hesitate to use the forum for this!

  • Business Process Repository Server and Business Process Publisher

    Hello,
    How to install "Business Process Repository Server" and "Business Process Publisher"?
    Tanks
    Daniela

    Hi,
    Both business publisher and process repository are available in CD2 of BPA Suite complete (for windows OS).
    Important step before installing the business process repository is that you must have installed the database. Or else you must have installed BPA with OracleLite or XE database. At the time Business process repository installation you need to choose the database option 1 if Oracle enterprise data base is installed, else you may choose option 2 which says you already have BPA installed with database.

  • Solution Manager 4.0 and SAP R3 4.7E - Business Process Repository Question

    When I am in solution manager setting up my business processes (solar01) to select my logical component with the drop-down I do not see my SAP R3 ERP 4.7 system available for selection.  They do exist in my SLD (SMSY) and all the components with the 4.7 system.  Does anyone know why they are not showing up in the drop-down for business process repository selection help?
    Thanks
    Skip Ford

    Hi,
    For how long the installation process has been running. Check the following.
    1. The virtual memory page size that you have assigned.
    2. The hard disk free space.
    3. The Virtual memory should be optimized size, should not be larger than the free space available.
    These are performance optimization settings.
    I guess the installation would take around ten hours, I am not sure.
    But one thing is sure <b>SAP</b> is not that bad to get aborted abruptly.
    Keep Patience while installing. Before that take care that your system satisfies, requirements.
    Hope I was clear. Feel free to get back, incase you face any problem.
    --Thanks and Regards,

  • Business Process Repository - installation problem

    Hi,
    Please help me with installation of Oracle BPA Suite.
    2 days ago I downloaded Oracle BPA Suite from "edelivery.oracle.com" - B46789-01, Oracle Business Process Analysis Suite 10g (10.1.3.4)
    Installation set comes in 3 parts and is unpacked into 2 directories -
    CD1-10.1.3.271679
    and CD2-10.1.3.271679
    I started CD1-10.1.3.271679/OracleBPA.exe
    (screenshot - http://img525.imageshack.us/img525/6610/scr1wy9.jpg)
    Oracle Business Process Architect installed fine.
    Now I would like to install Business Process Repository following to instructions in chapter 3.4.1.1 (steps 2,3,4,...) of installation manual (CD1-10.1.3.271679\Docs\ENU\installation_guide_s.pdf), but I could not find button "Install Oracle Business Process Repository" which is mentioned in step 3 - see screenshot (http://img525.imageshack.us/img525/6610/scr1wy9.jpg).
    Then I started file CD2-10.1.3.271679/bin/demo32.exe
    (screenshot - http://img391.imageshack.us/img391/7439/scr2vp2.jpg)

  • How to downloadin Business Process Repository in Solution Manager?

    Hello,
    Does anybody know how to download whole Business Process Repository from solution manager?
    I know how to download BPR, that are related to project, to excel file, but I want to download all the scenarios,processes are inbuilt to the Solution Manager business blueprint.
    Can anybody help me?
    Thanks,
    Mahantesh

    Hello Mahantesh,
    I suppose that your idea behind this question is that you would like to browse the contents of the BPR. For this specific pupose, SAP will deliver a new web dynpro application with SAP Solution Manager 4.0 SP 12 and the respective stack coming out mid June 2007 which allows you to browse all BPR contents in your SAP Solution Manager system. So you no longer have to create a seperate project and select the contents via F4 value help in SOLAR01 in order to access the contents.
    For further updates, please check the news mid June:
    <a href="http://service.sap.com/solutionmanager">http://service.sap.com/solutionmanager</a>
    Media Library -> Technical Papers. It will probably be called: "4.0 Support Package Stack <latest stack> [probably stack 12]"
    However, please note that an individual download of the entire or partial BPR structures into MS Excel will not be possible.
    Best regards,
    Doreen Baseler

  • OSS note 506603 What is it And where can I get it?

    Hello,
    I am trying to create my form with a SAP Table wizard connection, when I try to use the Table wizard I got the error: "No such interface supported". I can see in a lot of comments the solution is on OSS note 506603. I was trying to find this patch in the sdn site but I could not find it. I am not sure if it is a document, an exe file, a dll,,, and when I see the same question asking where to get the OSS note 506603 there is no answer, could somebody help me telling me what is this and where can I get the patch? I would really appreciate it.
    Many thanks.

    Hi Eden,
    How are you doing ?
    OSS note is the older nomenclature for what is now SAP Notes.
    They are available at :
    http://service.sap.com/notes
    you will need a service marketplace user id to log on.
    alternatively, if you do not have access to service.marketplace.
    send me an email [view my business card], i will reply with the patch. it is a few hundred kb.

    SAP .NET Connector, Proxy Wizard
    Solution
    SAP.NET Connector Version 1.0 has been available since Nov 21, 2002. You can download the software from http://service.sap.com/connectors.
    Version 2.0 is also available. Use only the new version for new developments.
    Report any problems with the SAP.NET Connector under the components:
    BC-MID-CON-DNW for problems with the .NET Proxy Wizard for Visual Studio.NET.
    BC-MID-CON-DNC for problems with Communication Runtime.
    Known problems
    1. The Proxy Wizard terminates with the error message "Exception caught in method createFunction for DD_GET_UCLEN Reason: null".
    This is caused by a missing function module, which can be installed as described in Note 580834.
    2. Corrections for SAP.NET Connector 1.0
    The updated version corrects various problems that have been noted during the interim period. You can download it from http://service.sap.com/connectors. To install this version, see the "Release Notes" file. For SAP.NET Connect 1.x, the newest patch-version is called "1.0.3".
    3. Corrections for SAP.NET Connector 2.0
    For Visual Studio Integration (Design Time) following problems have occurred:
    For proxies with several functions, the following runtime error can occur under certain circumstances: "Method xyz can not be reflected." The cause is a combination of an error in the .NET framework and the way in which the proxy generator uses XML-attributes.
    The SAP wizard table does not work. Existing tables are not recognized.
    Both problems are solved by the patch attached to this note. Stop all instances of Visual Studio and unpack the ZIP file into the "%Program Files%\Microsoft Visual Studio .NET 2003/Common7/IDE" directory, whereby the "SAP.Connector.Design.DLL" file is replaced.

  • What's a Business Process, really?

    Hello,
    in the thread BPX? A Techno functional Consultant? suggested to me her weblog <a href="/people/marilyn.pratt/blog/2006/07/27/what-is-a-business-process-really's a Business Process, Really?</a> for some clues, and added it's now <i>the time to start a thread and expand</i> about this topic.
    Effectively there are some helpful definitions in the Wiki FAQ page. Nevertheless I think a discussion about the concept of Business Process is absolutely worth. So your contribution is welcome!
    Cheers, Davide

    a business process is a series of steps that are undertaken to achieve a goal. 
    Analysing BPs is like looking at a fractal. As you zoom in there is more detail that contains more processes. 
    eg car company
    Shareholder view -  build car, ship car, sell car - build car - cost?  time?, ship car - cost? time?, sell car - price?
    Factory forman view - materials in on time?, assemble time? six sigma?, quality check six sigma?, test passs rate?,
    So a BP has a series of steps...so BPX job is to asks "can any of those steps be automated AND what's is the saving on automating the steps"
    A good BPX
    1.  Finds the broad areas that are the biggest cost to an organisation - ie talks to some high level people looks at the accounts due dilligence type stuff...
    2. Analyses processes - ie produces Visio process flows of what workers do (the skill here is getting the processes mapped out at the correct level - not to high not too low).  Rate the steps in the process for variance across the organisation.  How many times will this process be run...which steps require a human intelligence (ie hard to automate)...which steps can you augment/speed up with computer logic...which steps can you replace with computer logic...which steps are best left to humans...
    3. Review processes with the busniess and score them in terms of greatest value. 
    4. Pick your SAP tool that best fits the process step and implement the process, test and roll out -
    Personally I think the BPX role is not often somthing you're going to find in an individual.  Small teams of 2-4 people working very closely with different skill strength areas are going to be successful in this area

    Some time it will cover under blueprint phase and some time it can be carried out as a saperate process before actual start of implementation.

  • Business Process Repository Server connection difficulties

    All,
    We have Business Process Repository installed and can connect to it on the same machine but are unable to connect from any remote machine.
    It would appear therefore that this is some sort of configuration issue, and I see many discussions of this same problem online but no clear or direct resolution given.
    Is there a clear source of information anywhere about how to get remote access going? Do others have similar experiences?
    All help most appreciated. Thanks.
    Andrew Bernard

    Hi Andrew,
    Looks like your repository server and the client machines that are unable to connect to repository are in different sections on yr LAN. have you checked at the firewall for required ports to be opened for comminucation between Client and repository server?
    You can get the list of ports in the admin documents or can directly ask Oracle support for it.
    Regards
