  1 Getting Started

1 Getting StartedThis Master Guide for mySAP™ Supplier Relationship Management (mySAP SRM) providesa central starting point for the technical implementation of mySAP SRM.

To facilitate the implementation process, all information within this document is organized byscenario. You can choose from several generic business scenarios and find all theinformation relevant for the technical implementation of a specific business scenario in thatsection.

Each business scenario supports a number of variants. In this Master Guide only key variantsare described in detail.

For information about upgrading the mySAP SRM business scenarios, see theUpgrade Master Guide – mySAP SRM. This guide provides information aboutthe overall upgrade sequences, references to related documentation, SAPNotes, and additional upgrade information for each business scenario of mySAP

SRM. The Upgrade Master Guide is available on SAP Service Marketplace atservice.sap.com/srm-inst.

The complete mySAP SRM solution consists of the following top-level scenarios andbusiness scenarios:

  Self-Service Procurement

Self-Service Procurement enables your employees to create and manage their ownrequirement requests. This relieves your purchasing department of a huge

administrative burden while making the procurement process both faster and moreresponsive.

  Plan-Driven Procurement

Plan-Driven Procurement automates and streamlines ordering processes for regularlyneeded core materials. Since mySAP SRM is integrated with planning, design, andorder-processing systems, you can link your procurement processes to a plan-drivenstrategy that gets you the materials you need for core business processes — exactlywhen you need them. Plan-Driven Procurement integrates seamlessly with backendsystems such as enterprise planning and production systems. The scenario allows youto integrate operational procurement with your existing supply chain managementsolution.

  Service Procurement

E-procurement has produced great opportunities for saving costs in the purchasingprocess. However, companies generally fail to extend cost saving measures to

http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/176207705-sap-srm 12/94

1 Getting Started

  Strategic Sourcing

The sourcing application in SAP Enterprise Buyer  provides professional purchaserswith a wide range of actions and information to help them source their requirements. As a purchaser, you can use the interface to process the requirements and determinethe best source of supply. Once you have done this, you can create a purchase orderor contract directly from the sourcing application or SAP Bidding Engine. You can thensave it either locally or in the backend system, depending on the technical scenario youare using (classic, extended classic, or standalone).

  Spend Analysis

Spend Analysis is a decision-support application that enables you as a purchaser toanalyze your total spending across system and organizational boundaries. You canperform the analysis per supplier, per product, or per product category.

  Contract Management

Contract Management provides a solution for creating purchasing contracts and globaloutline agreements (GOA) and for changing them. It also provides a means torenegotiate existing contracts directly with the vendor or by creating a bid invitation. A

contract can be automatically assigned as a source of supply or displayed as apossible selection.

1.2 SAP Solut ion Manager

1.2 SAP Solution ManagerSAP provides the SAP Solution Manager as the platform to efficiently support theimplementation and operation of your mySAP SRM solution. Using SAP Solution Managersignificantly accelerates the implementation process and helps you to achieve your businessgoals. SAP Solution Manager contains predefined implementation content (IMG activities andtransactions as well as documentation and SAP Notes) that help you to configure your SRMSolution. In addition, SAP delivers Support Services based on the business scenariosdesigned and documented in SAP Solution Manager.

The use of SAP Solution Manager is mandatory for mySAP SRM 5.0. When you install SAPSRM Server 5.5 or upgrade to this release, you are asked to enter a key generated by theSolution Manager. For more information, see the installation or upgrade guide for SAP SRMServer 5.5.

In mySAP SRM 5.0, the SAP Solution Manager contains standard implementation content for7 business scenarios, covering all key capabilities of the mySAP SRM Solution Map. Thisenables a fast implementation of the entire solution in units of business processes.In your mySAP SRM project, execute the following activities using SAP Solution Manager:

•  Documentation of core business processes that are changed or implemented duringRamp-Up

•  Plan your Solution Landscape

•  Connection of existing systems and activation of SAP EarlyWatch Alert

1.3 Impor tant SAP Notes 

Support requires remote access to the SAP Solution Manager that hosts the affected

system landscape.

•  If you already have an SAP Solution Manager deployment in place, you can use it tomanage the solution you build up with SAP NetWeaver and mySAP SRM as well. Inthis case, it is highly recommended that you update SAP Solution Manager andSolution Manager content to the latest version.

•  It is possible to install multiple instances of the SAP Solution Manager. In this case,each installation should host separate business solutions.

  If you want to reduce the risk of unavailability, do not install SAP Solution Manageras a central component. Instead, operate a two system landscape with test andproduction environment of SAP Solution Manager, especially if you are using timecritical functions like Support Desk. If you also develop your own content, a three-system landscape with development, test and production environment isrecommended.

1.3 Important SAP Notes

You must read the SAP Installation Notes before you start the installation. These SAP Notescontain the most recent information about the installation as well as corrections to theinstallation documentation.

Make sure that you have the up-to-date version of each SAP Note, which you can find in theSAP Service Marketplace at service.sap.com/notes.

2.2 Solution-Wide Topics 

2.2 Solution-Wide Topics2.2.1 Minimal System LandscapeIn the mySAP SRM solution, you can install all software components (ABAP and non-ABAPcomponents) as shown in the figure below.

Enhanced requirements on performance, scalability, high availability, andsecurity reasons cannot be met by such a minimal system landscape. Forinformation on creating productive system landscapes, see SAP ServiceMarketplace at service.sap.com/ti.

The installation of this minimal system landscape is possible only if you choose an operatingsystem and a database that supports all components.

For more information about released platforms for mySAP SRM, see SAP Service

Marketplace at ser vi ce. sap. com/ pl at f orms →  Product  Availability Matrix. 

Furthermore, you must provide a sufficiently sized server. For information on sizing, see SAP

Service Marketplace at ser vi ce. sap. com/ si z i ng.

The figure only shows those SRM components behind the firewall.

SAP Process Integration requires a dedicated SAP Web Application Server.

This means that running applications in other clients of the same SAP Web ASis not supported.

3 Business Scenarios of mySAP SRM

3.1 Self-Service Procurement 

3 Business Scenarios of mySAP SRM

This Master Guide provides just one way to implement each business scenario.For other ways to implement business scenarios, see the Scenario & ProcessComponent List in SAP Service Marketplace (service.sap.com/scl ). The

Scenario & Process Component List helps you to find realization alternatives forSAP solutions, business scenarios and processes. It shows you which

application components are needed to realize a business scenario or process.

3.1 Self-Service ProcurementFor this business scenario, the following topics are covered:

  Overview

  Technical system landscape

  Overview of the implementation sequence

3.1.1 Overview

Description

Self-Service Procurement enables your employees to create and manage their ownrequirement requests. This relieves your purchasing department of a huge administrativeburden while making the procurement process both faster and more responsive.

For more information on Self-Service Procurement, see the Business Scenario Descriptionsfor mySAP SRM.

Tasks

Typical tasks for the business scenario Self-Service Procurement tasks include:

•  Employees buying office materials or IT equipment from catalogs

•  Employees buying items that are not covered in catalogs from centrally agreed

contracts, for example procurement of services•  Capturing requirement requests for materials not covered in catalogs or outline

agreements by employees to provide a single point of contact for purchase requisitions

•  Professional buyers purchasing standard, indirect material without auction

  3 Business Scenarios of mySAP SRM

3.1 Self-Service Procurement

Deployment Options

The following section describes the deployment options that are supported for Self-ServiceProcurement. However, the open and flexible design of SAP Enterprise Buyer also allowsyou to combine the described deployment options.

•  Classic deployment

You implement the SAP Enterprise Buyer system and one or more ERP systems. AllMaterials Management (MM) is mapped in the ERP system. Accounting (FI) andControlling (CO) are processed in the ERP system.

•  The extended classic deployment

You implement the SAP Enterprise Buyer system and one or more ERP systems. Thecomplete procurement process takes place in the SAP Enterprise Buyer system. Thepurchase order in the SAP Enterprise Buyer system is the leading purchase order.Goods receipts (confirmations) and invoices can be pre-entered in the SAP EnterpriseBuyer system. Purchase order data in the backend system is updated from SAPEnterprise Buyer. Goods receipt and invoice data is updated from the backend system.

  The standalone deploymentIn this deployment scenario, you have no Materials Management (MM) in your ERPsystem and are using the Materials Management functions in the SAP EnterpriseBuyer system for all non-production procurement. If required, you can connect Accounting (FI) and Controlling (CO). However, this is optional.

3.2 Plan-Driven ProcurementFor this business scenario, the following topics are covered:

  Overview

  Technical system landscape

  Overview of the implementation sequence

3.2.1 Overview

Description

Plan-Driven Procurement automates and streamlines ordering processes for regularlyneeded core materials. You can use this business scenario to procure requirements formaterials that have been generated in systems other than SAP Supplier RelationshipManagement (external systems). By integrating the SRM System with planning, design, andmaintenance systems, you can accelerate your procurement and integrate the operationalprocurement with your Supply Chain Management solution. The business scenario supports

third-party order processing, a special kind of procurement. Here the product goes directlyfrom the vendor to the customer of the purchasing company. The purchase order to thevendor contains the necessary information for this.

You can set up the business scenario in such a way as to link one or more MaterialsManagement systems (SAP-MM) with Materials Requirements Planning (SAP-PP-MRP) toone or more vendor systems (SAP Supplier Self-Services).

You can continue to plan requirements in SAP Advanced Planner and Optimizer  (SAP APO).

For more information on Plan-Driven Procurement, see the documentation BusinessScenario Descriptions for mySAP SRM. 

Tasks

Examples of tasks for Plan-Driven Procurement include:

•  A manufacturing company with many disparate planning systems consolidates allprocurement (direct and indirect) in one e-procurement hub.

•  A company performing planned and unplanned maintenance centralizes procurement

activities in a single application.

Process Chain

The following figure shows an example of a typical Plan-Driven Procurement process chain:

  Overview

  Technical System Landscape

  Overview of the implementation sequence

3.6.1 Overview

Description

You can use this business scenario to cover the entire service procurement process. Beforeordering external staff or services, you can send a request to one or more suppliers fordetailed information on a specific service or the availability of individual service agents, forexample. After receiving the suppliers’ responses and accepting one of these bids, thecorresponding purchase order is automatically created. Next, time and expenses have to beentered into the system and, finally, the invoice is created.

You can integrate your suppliers into the procurement process by connecting a suppliersystem like Supplier Self-Services to your procurement system. In this way, the serviceagents can enter services performed and create invoices for these services. You have toapprove all documents created by your suppliers and you always retain a complete overviewof all business processes.

For more information, see Business Scenario Descriptions for mySAP SRM.

3.7 Spend AnalysisFor this business scenario, the following topics are covered:

  Overview

  Technical system landscape

  Overview of the implementation sequence

3.7.1 Overview

Description

Spend Analysis is a decision-support application that enables you as a purchaser to analyzeyour total spending across system and organizational boundaries. The analyses can beperformed per supplier, per product, or per product category.

The system landscape can consist of one or more SAP R/3 backend and SAP EnterpriseBuyer  systems connected to a single SAP NetWeaver Business Information Warehouse (SAP BI). Analyses are based on documents from Financial Accounting restructured

according to procurement needs. You can enrich document information with category andcontract information from the procurement systems.

Master data has to be consolidated to identify identical suppliers and identical productsstemming from either the same or different systems. For this purpose, you can use AdvancedMaster Data Maintenance included in SAP BI. Advanced Master Data Maintenance providesyou with a mechanism to manually match supplier records and product records. 

In addition to that, you can assign standard category schemas from your local systems suchas UNSPSC or ecl@ss to the purchasing categories enabling you to report on consolidated

product categories.For more information on Spend Analysis, see Business Scenario Descriptions for mySAPSRM.

3.8 Contract ManagementFor this business scenario, the following topics are covered:

  Overview

  Technical system landscape

  Overview of the implementation sequence

3.8.1 Overview

Description

The Contract Management business scenario allows you to create, process, and monitorpurchasing contracts and global outline agreements (GOA). It also provides a means torenegotiate existing contracts directly with the vendor or by creating a bid invitation. Acontract can be automatically assigned as a source of supply or displayed as a possibleselection.

 A strategic purchaser creates a contract or a GOA whenever a long-term relationship is

anticipated and the vendor can be considered as a source of supply. Contract managementenables purchasers from various parts of the company at different locations to takeadvantage of the terms of globally-negotiated contracts for specific product categories.

You can provide users with specific levels of authorization to contracts and GOAs, and alsocategorize these documents as confidential. You can distribute a GOA to the release-authorized purchasing organizations and these organizations can use the contracts andscheduling agreements created from the distributed GOA. You can use hierarchies toorganize, structure, display, and search for your contracts.

If you use SAP Business Intelligence (SAP BI), you can view various consolidated reports ofcontract management. For example, you can view the aggregated value released against allthe contracts in a contract hierarchy.

For more information on Contract Management, see the Business Scenario Descriptions formySAP SRM.

Tasks

Typical tasks for the Contract Management business scenario include:

•  A strategic purchaser negotiates a long-term contract with a vendor to deliver goods ofa specific commodity.

•  A strategic purchaser maintains a global outline agreement database that includest t titi

Only a subset of these components is required for the installation of any singlebusiness scenario. For a scenario-specific overview of components, see thesection Business Scenario Overview.

4.1 Software UnitsTechnically, SAP implements all capabilities and features of mySAP Business Suite solutionsusing a number of mySAP Business Suite components. There are three types of component:

•  Application components

•  Industry-specific components

•  Technology components

You can install and upgrade the components separately. Each component has its ownrelease plan.

4.1.1 SRM 2005 Software UnitsThe following application components implement and support mySAP Business Suite cross-industry solutions.

SAP Supplier Relationship Management ServerDefinition

The SAP Supplier Relationship Management Server (SAP SRM Server) includes both SAPEnterprise Buyer and SAP Bidding Engine.

SAP Enterprise Buyer is based on SAP NetWeaver Application Server (AS). It is anapplication and database instance installation released on several database and operating

system platforms (see SAP Service Marketplace at ser vi ce. sap. com/ pl at f orms  

Platform Availability Matrix). It enables easy, full-cycle, inter-enterprise procurement. With ityou can:

•  Create and process requirement requests, purchase orders, and reservations with orwithout electronic catalogs

http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/176207705-sap-srm 79/94

Bid invitations can also be converted to reverse auctions. Another business scenario contains the interface to the Business Intelligence (BI) system.Professional purchasers use the information from the BI system to , for example, rate aprovider’s services or analyze their employees’ purchases.

In addition to maintenance, repairs, and operation (MRO), BI supports the end-to-endprocurement of direct materials. Direct procurement scenarios involve the seamlessintegration of SAP Enterprise Buyer with SAP APO, BI, and SAP or non-SAP backendsystems. SAP Enterprise Buyer even supports a comprehensive range of mobile applications(on a project basis).

Use

SAP Enterprise Buyer is the procurement and sourcing system that is the central part of anymySAP SRM scenario. It empowers employees with self-service procurement, enablescentralized direct procurement and provides the professional purchaser with tools to makethe right sourcing decisions.

The mySAP SRM solution requires the SAP Enterprise Buyer system for downloadingmaterials data and (optionally) using the Business Intelligence capabilities offered bySAPNetWeaver.

SAP Bidding Engine

Purchasers can use SAP Bidding Engine to create and process bid invitations, and bidderscan use SAP Bidding Engine to submit bids in response to these bid invitations. Bothpurchasers and bidders can use reverse auction functions in a separate Live Auctionapplication. Purchasers can define rules pertaining to bidding and bidders can submit bids inreal time.

OLTP System

SAP NetWeaver Application Server

Definition

 Application Server (AS) is the application platform of SAP NetWeaver and, consequently, ofthe mySAP Business Suite. It provides the technological foundation for all other SAPsoftware units.

Different basic system variants exist for AS. The variants and their differences are:

Variant Engines you may operate

 ABAP+Java system  ABAP Engine and J2EE Engine

Java system  J2EE Engine only

 ABAP system   ABAP Engine only

  4 Software Components Overview

4.2 Non-SAP Components

Open integration capabilities provide access to existing SAP and non-SAP applications. Allintegration facilities supported by SAP are available with AS. The Java Connector or the.NET Connector give ABAP applications access to Java or .NET components and vice versa.

Page 85: 176207705-SAP-SRM

8/10/2019 176207705-SAP-SRM

http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/176207705-sap-srm 85/94

gIn addition, the Internet Communication Framework (ICF) enables ABAP programs toprocess and distribute HTTP requests directly. As a consequence, AS can serve as both anHTTP server and a client. It serves as an HTTP server for bringing applications to the uservia a Web browser either directly or via a standard Web server. It serves as an HTTP client toaccess other Web applications for collecting information and data. To complete Webconnectivity, AS provides full support for sending and receiving e-mails via SMTP.

Building Blocks

Usage type AS consists of the following main building blocks:  Central instance

  Central service instance

The central services instance forms the basis of communication and synchronizationfor the J2EE cluster.

  Database instance

 AS-Java has its own database schema. As a result, a database instance is also amandatory installation component for the installation of an AS-Java system.

For the installation of a system that supports both ABAP and Java, both the ABAP andthe Java schema are installed in the same database.

Exception:If your SAP system is running on Informix, a separate MaxDB or IBM DB2 UDBfor UNIX and Windows is required for the Java database schema.

  Dialog instances, if required

Dialog instances are SAP instances that include only:

Dispatcher, IGS, and CCMS agents

For AS-ABAP and AS-Java in one system and AS-Java system :J2EE server processes

For AS-ABAP and AS-Java in one system and AS-ABAP system:

gateway and certain ABAP work processes (dialog, batch, spool, or update)

Dialog instances are installed on application servers.

The dialog instances of AS-Java systems are called J2EE dialog instances.
