Hi,
Roll -out Project:
Extending the business functionality from corporate to its branch office.Example: You have main office in German and they implemented SAP.Also they have branch in India and want to implement in India.When implementing SAP in India office( having same company in corporate level and assigning a company code for India to the same company), you can say it's a roll out project.
Upgradation projects in SAP:
Replacing older verion to new version.Example:Upgrading from SAP 4.6C to ECC 6.0.
Roll out example
IF client is on SAP and runing SAP
now he purchases new p-lant or set up new plant
then going on to sap for this new plant is roll out

  • What can a best SAP implementation do for you?

    For us, it did not get us the best results and our organization is still reeling from the huge investment made in SAP solution deployment - [I read this article |http://www.infoverto.com/2010/10/what-can-best-in-class-erp.html]and do not agree that SAP can bring the benefits [as written there|http://www.infoverto.com/2010/10/what-can-best-in-class-erp.html].

    I differ from your view and I have a feeling that you are in the initial phase of learning SAP.
    Why I am indicating is that  I had been with one of the major manufacturers for automotive parts, in India and abroad pre-SAP and post-SAP for quite a long time / years.
    Before implementing SAP, there were lot of MIS reports coming to CEO where each and every report will have different figures and due to this, couple of  Management decisions went wrong.
    But after implementing SAP, though in the initial phase, the users agitated to operate in SAP on day today basis, but over a period of time, they find how effectively they can make use of SAP especially from the MIS reports point of view.
    Of course, quite frequently we were brainstorming on the critical issues we come across and wherever it can be addressed through standard, we have addressed and wherever we need to control through exit, we had implemented and now the top management is free from routine head aches and they are happy over the progress SAP has made in their plants. 
    Last but not least, I also know companies who have implemented SAP and are still struggling with their day to day issues just because, the implementation was total fiasco and I only blame who implemented SAP with unwanted configurations.
    Just out of topic, can you please let me know how long and what industry you have handled as of now !!!!!!!!
    thanks

  • Regarding rollouts in sap

    HI,
        Can anyone answer what is rollout in sap implimentation?
        can any body give an example sap implimentation scenario.
    Regards
    SAI

    In simple words i would say:
    1. Implemenation -> Developing a new system.
    2. Rollout -> Extending an existing to new sales company or plant.
    3. Support ->Giving service for a project which is already implemented/rolled out.
    say XYZ company has operations in US, UK, Japan, Australia, India etc...
    Initially the project will be implemented for US...This project gets over and go-live has been successfully done.this is called implimentation..Now, the SAP concept need to be extended to other countries so as that the system should be in sink...So, the is no need to implement freshly for other countries...instead Rollouts are been done to other countries so that all the countries system are in sink.

  • SAP Implementation Starting

    Hi all
    I am heading an SAP implementation for my company .
    I want to make sure that the implementing company
    delivers a fine and within time and budget solution.
    What are the points that are usually written in contracts
    to avoid delays / bad solutioning ?Pls give me tips as to
    what all I can have as part of the contract .
    All suggestions / Inputs welcome.
    Thanks

    Dear Oops Kooops,
    You question is broad in spectrum. To start with you can refer to some good Project Management books in SAP.
    These are some of the details you can look for:
    Business Goals
    Know how your project will benefit the business, and make sure you communicate those benefits to the employees who will use the technology. Poorly defined goals doom a technology project; well-defined goals help keep all project personnel working together. The system with unclear business benefits is one better left unsponsored and undone.
    User Involvement
    Getting user buy-in requires more than just communicating benefits. It also helps dramatically to enlist users' collaboration in designing or selecting the system.
    To convince business line managers to lend their workers to the front end of a project, executives recommend talking to their wallets.
    Risk Management
    Every I.T. project faces risk, whether it is technical (caused by unproven technology or integration problems) or business risk. Veterans say project sponsors should not only understand the risks but also demand that contingency plans be put in place before the first nail is hammered. But even though risk management is a project management basic, it is easy for executives with little technical knowledge to ignore it because they are intimidated by the technology. Fortunately, they also say technical risk is easier to manage than business risk. If the project hinges on a relatively new technology, it makes sense to build and test a prototype before going whole hog.
    Scope Management
    Keeping requests for new features from derailing or slowing down a project is a step that should be handled by the project manager, but occasionally the executive sponsor has the clout to say no to a request the IT leaders can't refuse.  Besides inflating costs, scope creep can deflate user enthusiasm as the project's benefits are pushed off. Getting the project done quickly is a good goal for the executive sponsor to champion; bells and whistles can be added later, after the initial rollout. "Vanilla is a very good flavor"
    Appropriate Accountability
    No accountability, no progress--that's no surprise. The challenge in IT projects is to hold the right people accountable for the right deliverables. The IS department's job is to hand over the specified level of system functionality by the due date. After that, it's up to the business workers to get the specified business benefits out of the system. And the executive sponsor should make sure accountability is in place to enforce that division of labor.
        Non-IT execs have a tendency to exaggerate the role IS workers will play after a system is rolled out. As a result, it is common to point the finger for system failure at IS. That gives the other employees less incentive to make the new system work.
        IS and business line workers develop a lot more synergy when both feel an equal burden of responsibility.
    Helpful Hype
    Amidst all the spreadsheets, numbers, risk analyses and so forth, remember to add a spoonful of sugar for those who will actually have to use the technology.
    Do let me know in case of any queries.
    Hope this helps you.
    Regards,
    Rakesh

  • Closing down an SAP implementation for restart later

    OK, this is a strange one, to me at least, but here goes...
    Our company has been using an implementation of SAP for a specific project that is now coming to an end. They want to close down the system completely, but with the option of relaunching it later using the data records that currently exist, but probably imported into a new Enterprise structure. The financial data will also have to be maintained for audit and other legal purposes.
    I've done several SAP implementations but never a close-down like this! From a functional, rather than a Basis/infrastructure, point of view, does anyone know what configuration or other data protection measures we will need to take to safeguard the data and facilitate a restart so much later?  Are there any other issues the company will need to consider? We use ECC6 and FICO (GL/AR/AP/Banks) with COPA, and SD MM
    During the period between the closure of the SAP system and its re-initialisation in expanded form - maybe 18 months later - they will run the functions now done in SAP in an old system. Again, I have done transfers of data from legacy systems into SAP but never the reverse. Any suggestions, other than ensuring compatibility, for this process?
    I strongly suspect that when they look at re-starting the use of SAP it will essentially be a new implementation from scratch, with perhaps some Customer/Vendor/Materials/FICO master data imported, but involving all the stages of the road map. However, if there is anything we can do to help whoever does that then we will. So, any suggestions or information will be welcome.
    Thank you

    Note also that the support provided by Nokia for a particular phonemodel does not require that there is a factory still manufacturing that model. In other words, spare parts can be provided, as well as software updates and support, without factories churning out new units.
    And while Nokia has closed a couple of factories, the company still has serveral that are operational all over the world, and for which no plans for closing has been announced.

  • Time frame for SAP implementation query

    Hi guys,
    I am a university student and am currently trying to collect some information for my paper on development of ERP systems in industrial companies, particularly SAP. I'm meant to do some field research, but it is proving to be rather difficult, which is why I wanted to ask for some help from people who have experience in the implementation of the SAP system.
    What I'm looking for is the time frame that the SAP system takes to integrate into an industrial firm. Also, the scope of integration (ie how many and which modules were added on top of the core SAP system) and the number of users after the full implementation of the system.
    I don't need the name of particular companies, as I understand that that may be disclosing too much corporate information, but it would really help me if someone could give me a realistic time frame of the implementation process for SAP.
    Thank you, in advance!
    Anya

    Anya,
    Update to your queries:
    size of the company that this SAP implementation took place at:
    Answer : In terms of revenue $200 million +
    Interms of employees 6000+
    HR module in particular - whether it can be fully implemented separately and how long would it take?
    Answer:
    Definately, it can be fully implemeted and other modules may not be used
    Time period - 3+ months as Business packages are available in SAP.

    Ganga

  • SAP Security On A New SAP Implementation

    Hi Gurus,
    I'm going to be part of a team that will be implementing SAP Security with a company that's implementing SAP. My experience has always just been on the maintenance and support and I was wondering security wise, what's involved during the implementation stage. What are the things to be done or considered when implementing SAP Security? Are there steps to be followed? What is the best strategy for implementing authorizations?
    Thanks in advance for answering my questions and enlightening my junior mind.
    JB

    Hi,
    SAP Security implimentation process follows the Authorisation Methodology. In this we need to follow the phases which are 
    1._Requirement_ :In this Implimenting parttner team comunicates with end user and prepare the S.O.D.  As per S.O.D implimenting partners prepare the _Role matrix ._
    2._Analsys:_ as per role matrix based on rules and regulations consultants educate the end user.
    3. *Implimentation* :   As per role matrix Single role,composite rople,derive role will be Develop and securing table ,reports.transaction which are critical.
    4. Quality check and test: developed roles are move to qulity system and testing will be done  as per approval from the decision maker role are move to the production server.
    5.Cutover: this roles are assigned to the users and system goes to live.
