Install & Activate SAP Best Practices

Terminology

Quick Guideprovides the information (Technical prerequisites) needed toactivate the complete SAP Best Practices for Chemicals solution using the SAP

Best Practices solution builder.

Quick Guidealso contains important installation information regarding

installation issues and troubleshooting.

Quick Guide is attached to a SAP Best Practices for Chemicals support Note.

SAP Best Practices for Chemicals support Note provides information on the

installation of a SAP Best Practices Chemicals version (like SAP Note 1648098

provides information for installation of SAP Best Practices for Chemicals V1.605

India Localized).

SAP Best Practices are developed and tested in a system landscape with specific

Support Package Stack (SPS)levels. These SPS levels are documented in QuickGuide.

The mentioned Support Package Stack (SPS) (in Quick Guide) is the minimum

level that must be applied to the system before installation of SAP Best Practices

package.

Install & Activate SAP Best Practices

Terminology

The technical structurefor each SAP Best Practices solution (scenarios,building blocks and technical objects) is managed by a Solution Scope file.

The Solution Scope filecan be found as attachment to the SAP Best Practicesfor Chemicals support Note

The installation settings(configuration settings and master data) of the SAPBest Practices are managed by the Installation Datafiles.

The installation datafiles can be found in the SAP Best Practices area on theSAP Service Marketplace at https://websmp203.sap-ag.de/bp-implcontent

PersonalizationSAP Best Practices content can be activated with personalizedvalues (instead of the default values) like organizational units (company code orplant) can be activated with own values.

Tools for SAP Best Practices Scenarios Activation

What is needed to activated SAP Best Practices?

The following automation tools are involved in the installation process of SAP

Best Practices:

SAP Best Practices Solution Builder

eCATTs

Business Configuration Sets (BC Sets) to speed up installation processThese tools reduce the necessary activities of one or more scenarios to a

minimum of activation steps

Using SAP Best Practices Solution Builder, the scenario activation or scope

activation runs automatically with the exception of manual steps for steps which

cannot be automated

After activation you can check a comprehensive activation log

Note: you can also activate SAP Best Practices manually, using the

configuration guides as described in the SAP Best Practices Quick Guide


19/49


Installation Foundation - Business Configuration Sets

BC Sets are groups of configuration settings which are grouped according to logical, business management criteria to a unit

for documentary, preconfiguration, quality assurance and re-use purposes

which are independent of the original configuration tables/views

which are accessible across the system landscape

BC Sets represent snapshots of configuration settings

Defining approach to implement SAP Best Practices

SAP Best Practices are a set of

documented

pre-configured

tested

business processes which are

tailored to the customers industry

a starting point for the implementation project

SAP Best Practices are a set of configuration tools, not

a complete implementation methodology

SAP Best Practices have many great ingredients, but

without information on how to cook

SAP Best Practices is an end-to-end offering that provides a collection of industry-specific business andconfiguration processes including a lifecycle workbench that supports the entire process, from choosing the

right scenarios to their activation and installation

SAP Best Practices provide content to ascertain and finalize business processes for implementation


32/49


ASAP Focus Methodology

The ASAP Focus Methodology provides a set of procedures and documents that, along with the

principles of SAP Best Practices and the lifecycle workbench, complete the offering to simplify and

speed up evaluation, implementation, and continuous improvement

Midsize enterprise require

rapid implementations with a tight budget

fast ROI

involving fewer resources

SAP developed a specific methodology that

uses SAP Best Practices as major ingredients

simplifies and speeds up the implementation

is more focused than ASAP for quicker ROI

considers solution-specific content

Provide a specific methodology to implement a

pre-determined solution in a midsize enterprise

Provide a specific cookbook with the customers

favorite recipes, and also provide the ingredients
