2 System Setup & Preparation – System Administrator Always check the SAP Best Practices for Services Industries NL V1.607 note (1927561) for updates regarding the installation of SAP Best Practices.

2.1

SAP ERP



Install SAP ERP

Prior to installation and activation of a SAP Best Practices package (SAP BP package), the target SAP Application Server (AS) must be installed with the Support Package Stack (SPS) specified in this section and the SAP notes as specified in detail in section SAP Notes and Messages in this guide.



Release and Support Package Level

The deliverables of SAP Best Practices were developed and tested in a system landscape with specific support package levels. The mentioned Support Package Stack (SPS) is the minimum level which must be applied to the system before you can use the SAP Best Practice package and this is as well the recommended level.

If you run the activation on a higher SPS you may run into activation errors. If you encounter this, perform the activation activities by switching the eCATT to run in foreground mode or implement the configuration manually by using the configuration guides. For more details refer to the document SAP Best Practices Tools that is provided in the documentation package in the section Intro  Concepts accelerator SAP Best Practices Tools.. If you need a higher SPS level in your system FIRST import and activate SAP Best Practices on the SPS levels as mentioned below, THEN upgrade your system to the current SPS level. The SPS level relevant for the SAP Best Practices for Services Industries Package (NL) V1.607 is listed together with the required components in the next section.

Receiving the Software at the Correct SP Level If the support level needed for Services Industries Package (NL) V1.607 is not available on the SAP service marketplace download area you need to follow the procedure described in this section. For delivery of the software, an installation number and a corresponding license agreement are required. An S-USER is required to order software in the Software Catalogue or download form SAP's Software Distribution Center within SAP's Service Marketplace (SAP's SWDC in SMP). You can only order unrestricted SAP software. Contact the SAP contract department to ask for a physical shipment or create a customer message on component XX-SER-SWFL-SHIP.

SAP Best Practices

Quick Guide to Implementing the SAP Best Practices for Services Industries (NL) V1.607

Receiving the software at the correct SP level: Via SAP's Software Distribution Center (SWDC) on the SAP Service Marketplace and standard delivery (for example SAP Software Catalogue) only the current Service Release (SR) is delivered to SAP customers / partners. If you encounter the situation that the required Support Package Stack (SPS) for correct SAP Best Practices packages activation is based on SPS level LOWER than the current SR, the request for the necessary SPS is handled via a customer message. For details, see the SAP Note 925690 - Standard Ordering Procedures for SAP Software (https://service.sap.com/sap/support/notes/925690).

 Required SAP Components 2.1.3.1 Installation of Additional Language You need to import NL (Dutch) as additional language directly after installation before applying the enhancement packages and support packages using transaction SMLT. Doing this you avoid performing the import of the language parts of the support packages. After you updated afterwards the system to the required enhancement and SPS level please perform in client 000 a language supplementation of NL with EN, depending to your needs. This should be performed before you copy client 000 to your activation client.

2.1.3.2

Component Information

To download the SAP Best Practices Add-ons, go to the Software Distribution Center (SWDC) on the SAP Service Marketplace: https://service.sap.com/swdc, and then choose Installations and Upgrades  Browse our Download Catalog  SAP Best Practices  SAP BP FOR SERVICES INDUSTRIES  SERVICES INDUSTRIES V1.607  Installation. 5) Adobe Document Services (ADS)

The Adobe Document Services (ADS) is only needed if you want to install the business scenario Offline Time Recording (266).

For Adobe Document Services (ADS) a special license is required to use the interactive feature of Adobe Forms. Contact your SAP Sales Representative for licensing and pricing information. Adobe Interactive Forms as well as standard print forms are rendered in the Adobe Document Services (ADS) software component, which runs in the Web AS JAVA (J2EE-Server) of Netweaver. The configuration of ADS is described in SAP Note 894009. Additional information, including the most recent version of the ADS configuration guide, is provided on the SAP Community Network under: https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/sdn/adobe As described in SAP Notes 750784 and 736902, a special license is required to use the interactive feature of Adobe Forms. In particular, a special credential file must be installed in the ADS. This credential gives the forms special ReaderRights each time they are rendered in ADS and allows them to be filled in using Adobe Reader. In the ADS configuration guide step 7.3, perform Installing a PKCS #12 Credential. To configure the interactive form templates delivered in this guide, the person performing these steps must have the LiveCycle Designer application installed locally on the client PC. The Designer application is available for download from the SAP Service Marketplace. To use the forms, the latest version of Adobe Reader (currently 9.1.0) must be installed on all client PCs that use them. 6) Web Services: Netweaver ESA ECC-SE 605 (eSOA Enterprise service oriented architecture) AddOn

The Web Services (ECC-SE 605) is only needed if you want to install the business scenario Offline Time Recording (266). The interactive forms, used within scenario Offline Time recording (266), utilize web services from the ES Bundle HCM Time Management to obtain a current worklist of network operations (for business case 1: OTR Project), and to submit working times to the ECC cross-application timesheet (both business cases, OTR Project and OTR Sales). The web services are installed with the Netweaver software component ESA ECC-SE 605. To check that this component is installed in your system, use transaction SAINT and ensure that the Add-On ECC-SE with the release 605 is in the list. If it is not listed, and you want to set up Scenario Offline Time Recording, you may install it.

SAP Best Practices Add-On

The following SAP Best Practices Add-ons must be imported into the system: 

BP-ERP 617V[xy] and BP-CANW 740V[xy] These Add-Ons contain the SAP Best Practices technical framework (e.g. BC-Sets, eCATTS, print pgrams)



BP-SOLBLD 70V[yz] This Add-On contains the SAP Best Practices solution builder program Always use the latest versions of the Add-ons as outlined in SAP Note 1301301 Release Strategy for SAP Best Practices Package ABAP Add-ons

Check the SAP Best Practices Services Industries Package NL V1.607 Note (1927561). If a correction transport is mentioned in the SAP Note, you must import this into the system. For more details, see the document Importing SAP Best Practices Add-Ons (ADDONINS.PDF) on the configuration DVD. Regular Updates Technical Environment The technical Add-ons provided by SAP Best Practices form the technical environment required for the automated implementation of your SAP Best Practices version with the SAP Solution Builder. This technical framework is continuously updated providing enhanced, fixed, or additional technical objects required for the technical implementation process. SAP Best Practices is therefore offering updated versions of the Add-ons on a regular basis. Each updated Add-on replaces the previous version in your system. More information about the currently available versions of the Add-ons BP-ERP and BPCANW and the Add-on BP-SOLBLD can be found in the SAP Note 1301301. Since the solution scope file and the most current installation data files always correspond to the current technical Add-ons, you always need to make sure to have the most current versions in your system before the technical implementation of your SAP Best Practices version starts. The update of the technical framework has no impact on scope or business content of your SAP Best Practices version as it is described in the respective documentation. Correction transports may also be mentioned in the SAP Best Practices Services Industries Package NL V1.607 note (1927561). It may be necessary to import such a correction transport into the system.

2.2.1.1

Recommendation for SAP Best Practices Activation

The preconfigured content of SAP Best Practices can be used to initially set up a prototype or development system. During the activation of Business Configuration Sets via the SAP Solution Builder tool the configuration and workbench settings are automatically recorded in transport requests in the SAP

SAP Best Practices

ERP system. These SAP Best Practices configuration settings can be transported into test systems and production systems as necessary.

2.3

SAP Enterprise Extension Sets and Enterprise Business Functions

Use After installing SAP ERP, the following SAP ECC extension sets must be activated before you start activation of the SAP Best Practices for Services Industries Package.

The activation of Enterprise Extensions, Business Functions and Business Function Sets will change your system and cannot be rolled back. For more details regarding the impact, check the documentation of the related extension or business function.

Ensure that you have activated all Enterprise Extension Sets and Enterprise Business Functions as outlined below before you create the client in which the SAP Best Practices Baseline Package shall be activated (see section Creation of Client for SAP Best Practices Activation below).

Do NOT activate additional Enterprise Extensions or Business Functions because this will result in serious errors during activation of SAP Best Practices. Activate ONLY the Enterprise Extensions and Business Functions as listed below.

Creation of Client for SAP Best Practices Activation

You have to create a client in which you will activate the SAP Best Practices Package. Usually this client is a copy of the SAP standard client 000.

Ensure that you have activated all Enterprise Extension Sets and Enterprise Business Functions as outlined in the section SAP Enterprise Extension Sets and Enterprise Business Functions (see above) before you start the client copy.

If you want to perform several activations of SAP Best Practices in different clients, you can create as many clients as you need. In this case pay attention to the following remarks:

2.5



Note that the default operating concern as delivered by SAP Best Practices can be created only once in a system, i.e. during the second activation in another client of the same system you will get a dialog box that outlines that the operating concern already exists. In this case, you can use the SAP Best Practices personalization feature (see below section Scoping and Activation of Scenarios, Step 5: Personalize the Solution) and choose another value for the operating concern.



Note that you have to release the transport request including the SAP Script objects after you have completed the activation in one client and before you start the next activation in another client. Otherwise you will run into an error in Building Block 153.



Note that you have to release the transport request including the DataSource Application Component Hierarchy object (APCO_MERGED) after you have completed the activation in one client and before you start the next activation in another client. Otherwise you will run into an error in Building Block 106.

The system cannot have any clients with a role of productive client. If the system contains a productive client, extension sets cannot be activated as required. Additionally, the automatic installation of SAP Best Practices content using the SAP Best Practices solution builder is not allowed, as BC sets cannot be activated in the productive system. To check the settings of clients in your system, use transaction code SCC4.

By default, the client-standard currency field value is EUR.

SAP Best Practices

Quick Guide to Implementing the SAP Best Practices for Services Industries (NL) V1.607

The client role must not be empty to avoid activation errors; SAP recommends to choose the client role Test (development test client) or Customizing (customizing and development client). More information on the client role concept can be found in the SAP NetWeaver help library in the section Change and Transport System - Overview (BCCTS)  Basics of the Change and Transport System  Clients and Their Roles.



Cross-Client Object Changes

Some of the system preparation activities and the activation of the SAP Best Practices package itself require that cross-client object changes are possible in the system. To check the relevant setting of your system, use transaction code SCC4. In the area cross-client object changes you need to select the option Changes to Repository and cross-client Customizing allowed.

SAP Notes and Messages

If issues become apparent after shipment of this this Best Practice Package (and hence of this document), an SAP Note exists to cover such eventualities.

Before you start the activation of the related SAP Best Practices scope, check the latest version of the SAP Note below to obtain updates and corrections for problems that do not become apparent until after shipment. All SAP Notes have to be applied to the system via the SAP Note Assistant. All SAP Notes mentioned below need to have the implementation status Completely implemented. Some SAP Notes require manual action before you set them to status completely implemented. To avoid activation errors as a result of generating loads, you have to perform a mass generation using transaction SGEN as described in the SAP Note 481548. SAP Note # 1927561

Creation of Consistent Business Transaction Groups

For the execution of assessments, distributions, periodic repostings or indirect activity allocations in several applications (for example, the CO-OM application), groups have to be defined in the current client which summarize all actual or planned transactions. As default, these groups are either not available or do not have the latest status. As consequence, some system transactions (for example KSVB, KSUB, KSV5, KSU5, etc.) will result in the following error: Customizing error: Business transaction groups are not current. Message no. GA627. Proceed as follows to correct the inconsistency: 1. Call transaction SE38. 2.

2.8 Printer Settings 

Default Printer

For activation of SAP Best Practices, the standard default printer LP01 is used that is generated during the SAP standard system set up. Once you have activated the SAP Best Practices for Services Industries Package, the printer LP01 cannot be used for printing (for more information on this, see SAP Note 573309). Instead, you must select an existing printer at your site.

Your printer must be linked to a device type for which the HELVE font family is defined (for example to the device type SAPWIN) to ensure that the forms printout is correct.

For personalized SAP Best Practices activations replace the printer LP01 as described in section Scoping and Activation of Scenarios, step 5: Personalize the Solution, below.
