RECOMMENDATION
The business processes that are presented in this master guide serve as examples of how you can
use SAP software in your company. The business processes are only intended as models and do
not necessarily run in your customer-specific system landscape the way they are described here.
Check your requirements and systems to determine whether these processes can be used
productively at your site. Furthermore, we recommend that you test these processes thoroughly
in your test systems to ensure they are complete and free of errors before using them productively.
NOTE
This Master Guide provides just one way to implement each business process. This is the
implementation valid for SAP Event Management. For other ways to implement business
processes, see the Scenario Component List Viewer on SAP Service Marketplace (http://
service.sap.com/scl).
Use the Master Guide to get an overview of SAP Event Management, its software units, and its business
processes from a technical perspective. The Master Guide is a planning tool that helps you to design
your system landscape. It refers you to the required detailed documentation, consisting mainly of the
following:
,@r Installation guides for single software units
,@r SAP Notes
,@r Configuration documentation
,@r SAP Library documentation
Only a subset of these components is required for the installation of a specific business process.
For a process-specific overview of components, see Business Processes of SAP Event Management [page
33].

You cannot reverse most business function once they are activated. Due to technical restrictions,
only a limited number of business functions are reversible.
After you have activated a business function, you can see the changes and new developments in the
SAP system, for example:
Bn+ Menu entries
Bn+ New screens
Bn+ New fields on the application user interfaces
Bn+ IMG activities required for the implementation
Bn+ New table entries in Customizing tables and system tables
You can create a transport request with the current settings of the switch framework. You can check
functional changes and the impact of an activated business function in advance in the business function
documentation.

SAP enhancement packages have Support Packages of their own that are equivalent to the Support
Package versions of the underlying SAP system. We highly recommend installing the enhancement
package in combination with the latest available Support Package stack. This approach reduces
installation, modification adjustment, and testing effort. Using this strategy, you can install SAP
enhancement packages as a normal maintenance activity together with Support Package stacks.
An enhancement package requires a specific Support Package stack level in the source release SAP
system. If the SAP system is on a lower Support Package stack level, all relevant Support Package stacks
are automatically included into the download queue, as well as the latest available Support Packages
for the enhancement package.

EIr SAP enhancement packages have the same maintenance period as the underlying core application.
EIr The installation of an enhancement package is irreversible.
EIr As long as you do not activate a business function, the installation of an enhancement package has
no impact on existing business processes or user interfaces.
You can only activate business functions in ABAP-based systems, not in Java-based SAP systems.
EIr The activation of most business functions and extension sets is irreversible. Only a small number
of business functions is reversible.
Test the installation process and activation of new functions in advance on a sandbox system.
Ensure that you evaluate the runtime and the SAP system behavior, its dependencies and impacts.
Make sure that your SAP system is free of errors before going live.

Before you start the installation, you must know which components and which releases of these
components are required for the business scenarios you want to use. We do not recommend
installing all components. Only install those components that are required for the business
scenarios you want to use.
For example, as of SAP Event Management 7.0, we recommend that you install the standard Web
user interface (Web Dynpro ABAP) instead of the Java-based Web user interface. For more
information, see SAP Note 1430143.

Procurement Processing
For a description of business processes that are related to other deployments, see the respective Master
Guide under List of Documents [page 45].
The procurement visibility process for production materials covers events from purchase order creation
to payment, including order acknowledgment, shipping notifications, goods receipt, and invoice
functions. This process can be combined with the transportation visibility process to also cover
shipment-related events. Role-based access for suppliers and buyers is available. Key Performance
Indicators (KPIs) are provided on the supplier cycle time, changes to the purchase order, and the
percentage of specific attributes.
Procurement processing in SAP Event Management typically comprises the following activities:
{>a Purchase requisition
{>a Payment
{>a Order acknowledgment
{>a Shipping notification
{>a Goods receipt
{>a Invoice functions
For more information about the setup of the underlying application process, see the Inbound Processing
& Receipt Confirmation with Warehouse Management process documentation, for example, in the
SAP Solution Manager.
Technical System Landscape
The following software components are either mandatory or optional, as indicated below, for the
technical implementation of this process.
The following table provides just one way of implementing the business process. For other
combinations, see http://service.sap.com/scl.

The fulfillment visibility process monitors the delivery process and provides active tracking of the
delivery for the customer. Events are reported from within the company as well as by business partners.
Follow up activities are triggered in the form of e-mails to the customers if there is a delay. SAP
NetWeaver Business Intelligence (SAP NetWeaver BI) may be updated, so the business process can be
analyzed. Fulfillment processing covers events from warehouse activities to the point-of-delivery (PoD)
at the customer site.
Fulfillment processing in SAP Event Management typically comprises the following activities:
[ Warehouse activities
[ Monitoring and controlling the delivery process
[ Tracking the delivery
[ Notification and follow-up

transportation for international inbound and outbound shipments. It covers international sea
shipments including customs and road transportation. This visibility process also deals with complex
transportation networks using transportation chains.

You can use this process to provide visibility throughout outbound delivery processing, based on
deliveries and their handling units. It covers events from warehouse activities to the point-of-delivery
(PoD) at the customer site. Role-based access for customers (sales executives) and warehouse managers
is supported. You have the option of posting the packing and loading events with the help of SAP AutoID Infrastructure. Outbound/Inbound delivery processing in SAP Event Management typically

The production malfunction process describes the visibility within production. It covers events from
the release of the manufacturing order to the related goods receipt, including machine breakdowns.
This process closes the gap between planning and execution by notifying the planner in the event of a
machine breakdown, and combines production and plant maintenance-related information. Rolebased access for production planners and supervisors is available. The system provides KPIs on the
manufacturing orders affected by a machine breakdown, including rescheduled orders.
For more information about the setup of the underlying application process, see the Manufacturing
Execution (Discrete/Repetitive/Process Manufacturing) process documentation, for example, in the
SAP Solution Manager.
