When cProjects (previous release 3.1) and SAPxRPM (previous release 2.0) were synchronized, the resulting common releaseswere 4.0 and 4.5.The technical implementation depends on the system landscape and in particular on thesecurity policy of your enterprise.For cProject Suite, SAP supports the following installation variants:Installation of cFolders and cProjects on the intranetChoose this installation if you want to use cProjects and cFolders applications forinternal collaboration only. All participants in the collaboration must have access to thecompanys internal network within the firewall.Installation of cFolders and cProjects outside the intranetChoose this scenario if you want cProjects and cFolders applications to be primarilyaccessible to external collaboration partners.For security reasons, SAP does not recommend this installation.Installation of cFolders outside the intranet and cProjects on the intranetChoose this installation if you want to use cProjects for internal project managementand cFolders for secure collaboration with external partners.SAP highly recommends this scenario.In addition to a stand-alone installation on SAP NetWeaver, the followinginstallation variants are possible:cProjects 4.50 is released for installation on ECC 6.0, CRM 5.0, andCRM 7.0.cFolders 4.50 can be installed on SRM Server 5.5. and SAP SCM Server5.0.In this case, cFolders should be called from outside the intranet via theSAP Web dispatcher installed in the demilitarized zone (DMZ).cFolders 4.50 is also released for installation on SAP ECC 6.0.For more information, see the Master Guide for SAP ERP 6.0 on SAP ServiceMarketplace at service.sap.com/erp-instSAP ERP 6.0.For SAP xRPM, SAP supports only a stand-alone installation on SAP NetWeaver.Master Gui de: SAP Project and Portfolio Management December 200812Software Component MatrixThis section provides information about which application of Project and PortfolioManagement uses which component and specifies the minimum release of each component.Project Portfolio Management: Appl icationsKey: X = mandatory (X) = optional- =not part of the appli cationSoftwareComponentSAP xAppResource andPortfolioManagement(SAP xRPM)Col l aboration Proj ects(cProjects)CollaborationFolders(cFolders)CPRXRPM(ABAP componentfor cProjects,cFolders, and SAPxRPM)X X XCPRXRPM_UI(J ava componentfor SAP xRPM)X - -SAP NetWeaver7.0 SP Stack 13XSAP NetWeaverwith usage typesAS-ABAP and EPXSAP NetWeaver with usagetypes AS-ABAP and AS-J ava (needed only for ADSwhen ADS is installed onthe same server)Optional: EP usageXSAP NetWeaverwith usage typesAS-ABAPOptional: EPusageSAP GUI X7.00X7.00X7.00AdobeDocumentServices (ADS)X XCan run on a separateserver-AdobeReader (X) (optional, butrequired if usingAdobe Forms forPrinting)(X)For more information aboutcompatible versions ofAdobeReader, see theAdobe Document Services Configuration Guide NW2004s on SAP ServiceMarketplace atservice.sap.com/adobe-> Medi a Library ->Documentation.-SAP ContentServer(X)Must correspond tointerface version 0045 or0046(X)Must correspond tointerface version0045 or 0046Master Gui de: SAP Project and Portfolio Management December 200813SAP BusinessInformationWarehouse (BW)(X) (X)7.03Can run on a separateserver-SAP BusinessInformation (BI)ContentSAP NW 7.0 BIContent 7.0.3SP06 or higher(optional, butrequired if usingSAP BI)(X)SAP NW 7.0 BI Content7.0.3 SP08 or higher(optional, but required ifusing SAP BI)(X)SAP NW 7.0 BIContent 7.0.3SP06 or higher(optional, butrequired if usingSAP BI)SAP R/3 or ECC (X)4.6C SP47, 4.70SP20, ECC 5.00SP00, ECC 6.00SP Stack 11, ifusing integration toSAP FI, SAP HR,or SAP PS or SAPcProjects(X)4.6C SP47, 4.70 SP20,ECC 5.00 SP00, ECC 6.00SP Stack 11Can run on a separateserver(X)4.6B or higher */**SRM Server - (X)5.5(X)5.5SCM Server - - (X)5.1SAP ExchangeInfrastructure (XI)For integration withSRM- (X)7.0(X)7.0ECL Viewer(For moreinformation, seepage 31.)- - (X)5.1.2 (To beinstalled on eachfront end, ifrequired)Text Retrieval andInformationExtraction (TREX)- (X)7.0(X)7.0SAP NetWeaverPortal Drive (forintegration withWebDAV)- (x)4.4(x)4.4SAP WorkforceDeployment (WFD)Server- (X)1.0-Microsoft InternetExplorerX X6.0 SP02 and 7.0X6.0 SP02 and 7.0Master Gui de: SAP Project and Portfolio Management December 200814Easy DocumentManagement 3.0- X3.0-Business Packagefor Projects,Portfolio,Management, andDesignCollaboration(PPMDC)X4.5(X)4.5(X)4.5SAP IGS X XSystem Requirements for Transactions CFI01 and CFE01 (Documents Only):SAP R/3 4.6C or a higher back-end systemSystem Requirements for Transactions CFI02 and CFE02 (Documents, Materials, andBill s of Material):SAP R/3 Release 4.6C SP33 or a higher back-end system and SAP Note 546617SAP R/3 Plug-In 2002.2System Requirements for Transactions CFI03 and CFE03 (Documents, Materials, Billsof Material, and IPPE Objects):SAP IS-ERP 2005Some functions, such as the Reference Designator or BAdI CFX_BI_EXPORT,are only available as of PI 2004.1.For more information about the Reference Designator, see SAP Notes 844461and 817588, which are available as of 4.70.SAP recommends that you use transactions CFI 01 and CFE01 only if yoursystem does not fulfill the requirements for transactions CFI 02 and CFE02.If you use a popup blocker, make sure that it is configured to allow popups fromyour cProjects system, for example ..com.Otherwise, the system cannot close your session automatically when you leavethe application visiting another site or closing your browser. As a result, you maylock projects, even though you have already left the application.Solution-Wi de TopicsMinimalSystem LandscapeSAP strongly recommends that you use a minimal system landscape for testand demo purposes only. For performance, scalability, high availability, andsecurity reasons, do not use a minimal system landscape as your productivelandscape. For information about creating productive system landscapes, seeSAP Service Marketplace at service.sap.com/ti.Professi onal Servi ces Scenarios and Workforce Deployment (only relevant forMaster Gui de: SAP Project and Portfolio Management December 200815cProjects)In extended scenarios (for example, scenarios of SAP for Professional Services), you can useadditional components and products such as Workforce Deployment (WFD). If you want touse this scenario, SAP strongly recommends that you use SAP NetWeaver Portal and theportal role Service Resource Planner, which you can download from SAP ServiceMarketplace. The scenario can run in both installation variants (ECC 6.0, CRM 5.0, and CRM7.0). However, if cProjects is not installed on a CRM system, you cannot use the bi-directionalintegration to CRM Opportunity Management. Also, you can only use groupware integration ifyour system landscape incorporates a CRM middleware.If you use Workforce Deployment (WFD) for resource management in cProjects, you mustmake some additional settings to enable business partner maintenance. You can accessthese settings using the portal role Service Resource Planner.In addition, make sure that you have activated LiveCache. For performance reasons, WFDand Live Cache should be installed on separate machines.For more information, see sectionWorkforce Deployment in the Master Guide for CustomerRelationship Management 2005 (SAP CRM 5.0) or in the Master Guide for CustomerRelationship Management 7.0 on SAP Service Marketplace at service.sap.com/crm-inst.AdditionalTechnologyWebDAV InterfacecProject Suite 4.50 offers a Web-Based Distributed Authoring and Versioning interface(WebDAV interface) that enables you to connect to different document managementrepositories, such as SAP Knowledge Management. SAP NetWeaver provides a standardWebDAV client (SAP NetWeaver Portal Drive), which emulates a new hard drive mapped tothe cProjects and cFolders structures. This technology is available since cProject Suite 4.0and replaces the existing Microsoft Windows File Explorer integration available up to cProjectSuite 3.1.SRM IntegrationThe SRM integration for external service procurement requires the installation of SAPExchange Infrastructure (XI) and the optional component XI CONTENT CPRXRPM 4.5_700to enable communication between cProjects and the corresponding SRM component.Adobe PrintingApproval documents; project status reports, print forms only run using Adobe DocumentServices (ADS) in cProjects 4.50. This requires the installation of the latest J ava J 2EE enginedelivered with SAP NetWeaver 7.0. After an upgrade from an earlier cProjects release, youcan still use existing Smart Forms for printing. ADS can run on a separate server.The printing and fact sheet in xRPM 4.50 only run using Adobe Document Services (ADS).This requires the installation of the latest J ava J 2EE engine delivered with SAP NetWeaver7.0.For more information about compatible versions of AdobeReader, see the AdobeDocument Services Configuration Guide NW 2004s on SAP Service Marketplace atser vi ce. sap. com/ adobe ->Media Library ->Documentation.SAP Web Dynpro Acti ve Component Framework (ACF)The ACF is a framework for integrating active components, such as ActiveX and J ava Appletsin Web Dynpro.
