1.5 Business Blueprint Overview
This document summarizes the findings of the Wipro Ara BWa Ltd consulting team, which conducted
requirement analysis of AIG for the SAP ERP 6.0 EHP4 systems. The information was gathered
through workshops and meetings conducted at the AI G plant with key users , Super Users, Business
Owners and personnel from Information Systems, as well as through reviews of business processes,
business procedures, documentation relevant reports, plant visit and standard operating
procedures (Interim and final).
Project Shaheen
The purpose of the analysis is to prepare & to move forward rapidly with the business process for
AIG in SAP ERP 6.0 EHP4 system. At the conclusion of the blueprint, Wipro Ara BWa Ltd consultants
will determine the SAP functionality required to run the AIG business respectively.
The Blueprint presents a summarized perspective of all functional business processes that will be
implemented. Blueprint document will serve - from this point forward the dual role of official project
scope as well as system acceptance criteria and the way SAP ERP 6.0 EHP4 will be configured for AIG.
The body of this document describes the organizational structure, master data and SAP ERP 6.0
EHP4 functional process flows to be rolled out at AIG. Certain key requirements are explicitly
identified and summarized to highlight their importance to AIG and to document the approach
proposed to meet the requirement.
One section of the report summarizes identified gaps and the solution proposed by the consultants
in SAP. There can be a gap which cannot be filled in that case AIG has to change its process according
to the standard practice.
The Blueprint reiterates the SAP ERP 6.0 EHP4 organizational structures that have been identified
and will serve as the basis for the initial conf iguration activities. The Wipro AraBWa Ltd team
believes that SAP ERP 6.0 EHP4 can accurately model AIG organizational requirements.
No significant configuration choices have been identified that will prevent the future
implementation of additional capa BWlities within the SAP ERP 6.0 EHP4 environment. The
information gathered and documented in the Blueprint is sufficient for the team to go forward into
the Realization phase. However, it is critical that both the Wipro and AIG team agree on the scope of
the project as presented in this document. Acceptance - by both teams - is required to move the
project into the next phase.

6 DETAILED DESIGN
6.1 Introduction
In the following section, a more detailed description of the overall design is given. It will zoom in on
the overall design and describe the content of several data elements.
In the content description, we will mention the objects that will be contained i n the DSO and cubes.
A DSO is meant for data aggregation and for detailed navigation, and it will contain more detailed
information than the cube. In general the DSO will consist of more objects than the related cube;
therefore not all information will be available in the cube. DSO is based on two dimensional whereas
an Info Cube is based on multidimensional model
6.2 General Considerations
6.2.1 Source System for Data

SAP ECC 6.0EHP4 source system will be the only source of data for SAP NetWeaver BW EHP2 .
6.2.2 Languages
All the analytical reporting requirements will be provided in English language only.
6.2.3 Currency
All currencies will be translated in the related currency(s) in the source system itself.
6.2.4 Calendar
All the reports will be accessed using only the CL IENT calendar / period and the CLIENT Year / period.
Specific reports will be available for quarterly and/or yearly.
6.2.5 Data Availability

All analytical report will be provided assuming that the data is available in source system. In case of
data is not available in source system, the report will not be realized.
6.2.6 Architectural Principal

In order to support the analytical and reporting requirements of CLIENT on the short te rm as well as
on the long term,
SAP BW has to be implemented in such a way that:
It is relatively easy to adjust an existing implementation to changing requirements
It is relatively easy to fulfill new requirements on basis of already available data
The impact of changes is limited
6.2.7 The Key factors considered in Design
Integrity: Single point of truth. As far as possible all redundant data extraction is removed. Standard
SAP extractors have been tailored to only bring required fields and any duplication of data fields
within extractors has been minimized.
Stability: Stability of the back end data model in terms of minimal extractions to serve the data
points, splitting of logical groups of data to minimize the data volume in one single flow. Building up
of the staging layer to get as is data is done.
Project Shaheen
Performance: Performance of data load and the reporting is considered while making the Data
model design and the Cube and Multi provider Dimension groupings. Use of ABAP routines is
minimized. Different options will be tried during the prototyping phase for better performance.
Supportability and Maintainability: The model is designed to keep the housekeeping jobs to the
minimum. The data flows are kept simple and only grouped logically.
Flexibility/Extensibility: The design (Customization objects) is made into four layers of which the
reporting layer will be only out of multi provider, for any future requirement which may need
additional data the relevant info provider can be plugged into the Multi provider.
6.2.8 Layers in the Architecture
AIG implementation only activates the SAP delivered Business content data flow.
Following Data Layers can be maintained in EDW:
Data extraction layer: Includes the Data sources, and transfer rules. This will ensure that only the
required fields are pulled into the information warehouse. Any cleansing of data or small
transformation will be done in this layer. At this point in the design there is only di rect mapping of
data fields.
Consolidation layer: The consolidation layer is designed to cater to the reporting requirements
since the reports cut across different functional sub groups this layer provides a single platform for
consolidating all the data in one single granularity.
Reporting layer: This layer consists of the Multi provider and the cubes, all the reports will be built
out of multi providers and hence the user can be given access only to the multi provider for creating
queries.
6.3 System Landscape
Following system landscape has been designed for BW system. SAP ECC and SAP BW are connected
through ALE (Application Lint Enabling) connections using Logical System Names. BW system has
only one client will connect to multiple ERP system clients.
To establish correct data loading procedure, BW development system will be connected to ECC
Development (Unit Testing client-Client: 203). BW Quality system will be connected ECC Quality
System (Client: 500) Similarly BW production system (Client: 900) will be connected to ECC
Production Client.
There will not be any mock production cutover for BW as the data base size for ECC will be very
small at the time of production cutover.
Project Shaheen
Landscape Design as follows
ECC DEV 203;202 ECC DEV 500 ECC DEV 900
BW DEV 250 BW DEV 550 BW DEV 950
6.4 Overview Design

The overall design consists of five layers:
1. Data Acquisition-layer containing Data Sources and Info Sources.
2. Data Storage-layer containing:
Master Data tables (Info Objects).
DSO tables for transactional data and / or Master Data .
InfoCubes.
3. Data Delivery-layer containing Info Cubes, Multi Cubes, Info sets.
4. Data Access-layer containing Queries, Workbooks, Reports .
5. Security Layer containing Roles and Authorization Objects .
The following picture shows the data flow between layers.

Project Shaheen
The picture depicts data flow only between first three lay ers. Queries and reports will be built on
Data Warehouse layer i.e. either on Data Store Objects (DSO) or on Info Cubes or on info objects
(which are converted as data provider).
As of SAP BW 7.0, a new object concept is available for Data Sources. It is used in conjunction with
the new concepts in data flow and process design (Data Source Transformation Info Source
(optional) Transformation Info provider).
In 3.x version of data flow concept (Data Source Transfer rule Info Source Update rule
Info provider) co-exist. Business Content Master Data & Transaction data objects are available in 3.x
Versions only.
In order to keep system ready for any kind of upgrade in future and considering SAP
recommendation, it was decided to use new conce pt of dataflow for Customization objects.
Additional activity of Data Source migration from 3.x Version to 7.0 will be taken up during source
system replication.
6.5 Data Loading Strategy
Business content in SAP BW is delivered with data source extractors that can be used in the daily ETL
activities. SAP extractors of SAP ECC master and transactional data use various update modes
Process Chains will be built and used for data loading in AIG BW implementation. Data loading will
schedule daily. BW reports will display data one day delay form the ERP system. Based on the report
requirement & importance will implement Real -Time data acquisition (RDA) if Standard Data
Extractors support.
Initialize Delta Update Mode:

During cutover activity prior to go live phase 1, we will extract all transactional data that has been
migrated into the operational system into SAP B W. Eg open interaction records. Critical master data
objects like materials, customers
Delta Update:
From go live onwards; SAP BW will perform delta updates on a daily basis that means any new or
changes to existing transactional documents in the SAP source systems will be extracted into the
appropriate Info Providers for reporting and analysis.
Full Update:
The master data characteristics (i.e. text descriptions, attributes and hierarchies for document types,
reason code categories etc will be performed using full updates. Once these master data objects are
configured in both source systems, they tend to be quite stable. For that reason, master data that
belongs in this update mode will be loaded once a week instead of daily.
Process Chains:
The process chains will be built in SAP BW that automates the complex daily ETL (extraction,
transformation and loading) processes for the BW system administrators.
In the production environment, critical master data and all transactional data extractions from the
source systems are currently assumed to be on a nightly basis. However some of the data where SAP
Extractors are not Delta enabled, data loading will be done using appropriate selection.
Project Shaheen
6.6 Color Coding

In following section each requirement has been analyzed with respect to its availa BWlity in the
business content. Following color coding is used.
Green : No Gaps. The requirement matches with content

Yellow : Minor Gap. The requirement can be met using navigation
Amber: Complex Gap. The requirement can only be met by enhancement
Red: Very Complex Gap. The requirement cannot possible.
6.7 Master Data for Reporting
Master data facilitate navigation into reports. All the master data will be loaded into BW from ECC
system. No master data will be manually created within BW. This will ensure the data integrity
between ECC and BW system. Some of the important master data are mentioned below. This is only
an indicative list.
Material Master
Customer Master
Vendor Master
Profit Center
GL Accounts
Cost Center
Project Definition
WBS Element
Employee Master
Work Center
Equipment
Plant
Chart of Accounts Etc.
Profit Center
Cost Center
Network. Etc.
Hierarchies
Values of a master data element in a tree structure are called hierarchies. These hierarchies are
normally used for reporting purpose. These are also normally loaded from source s ystem. In
exceptional cases, it will be possible to create and edit hierarchies within BW system for facilitate
different reporting structures across business unit. This will be controlled through system
administrator. It will also be possible to provide c ontrolled access to business for editing, if the need
arise.
However, it will not be possible to enter a master data values in the hierarchy creation manually, it
need to be selected to possible values only. For example, while creating hierarchy for profi t centre,
one cannot enter GBPAPA301 manually. It has to be selected from the list of master data that are
Project Shaheen
already loaded from source system. This will ensure the data integrity between master data element
and hierarchy.
Following Hierarchies are planned:

Profit Center (Editing allowed in BW)
FI Statement Version (Editing allowed in BW)
WBS Element (Editing NOT allowed in BW) , etc.
Project Shaheen

8 NAMING CONVENTIONS
8.1 Naming Convention With in BW
Objects unique to BW and not covered by other areas of SAP ECC are those used to define and
report on the contents of the BW. They have in common a naming convention comprised of two
parts: a Descriptive name and a Technical name. The following conventions apply to the
Technical name.
As a rule all BW Object Technical Names created by the project will begin with Y or Z. Objects
beginning with a Y are under development and test and can only be found in the Development of
BW. Once proven to the satisfaction of the project Y objects than re -named to with a Z objects in
Development and move to BW Quality than BW Production .
0 Stands for SAP Standard objects.

Z stands for the customer name in SAP system (Transportable Objects)
Y stands for Non Transportable Test Objects.
8.1.1 Info Area
SAP provided Info Areas are pre-defined, but can be changed. Whenever possible, utilize the
delivered Info Areas. If a new area is needed, it should be named appropriately.
Up to 30 characters for the technical name and 60 for the description are pr ovided.
Use the following naming convention for new Info Areas:
The first character is Z

The next two or three characters reference the SAP module. Ex: FI for Financial Accounting
The next two characters reference the business area. Ex.: AR for Accounts Receivable
Length Format Example

Technical Name 30 Z<<Module><Business> ZFIAR

8.1.4 InfoObject
Info Objects are limited to nine characters. SAP has re -engineered the naming of fields to be more
like English. In the spirit of continuing this process, yet maintaining the customized identifier, all
new Info Objects will begin with the letter Z, and the remainder of the object name will be as
descriptive as possible. The naming convention is as follows:

Technical 3-9 Z<Module><Field Name> ZFICCODE
Name
Description 60 <R3 Field Description><(R3 Field Material Code (MATNR)
(Name)>OR<Free Text>
8.1.5 Info Cubes
The first consideration to be made is that the Info Cube is correctly placed within the appropriate
Info Area. In the case of extremely sensitive data, the cubes may reside in a separate Info Area
defined as Confidential. In all other cases, there are many Info Areas to use for cube assignments.
The technical name is restricted to nine characters as follows:
Technical Name 3-9 Characters Z<Module>_C<Free Text> ZFI_C01

Description 60 IC: FI Budgets
8.1.6 DSO (Data Store Object)
A DSO object serves to store consolidated and debugged transaction data on a document level

9 AUTHORIZATION MATRIX
AIG BW authorization matrix needs to be discussed with Business and prepared.
Based on AIG authorization Matrix all the identified BW standard reports will modify and
incorporate the identified Organization objects accordingly.
9.1 User Population

In the reporting context users are classified in three categories.
9.2 Information Consumer

These are the most active users in the reporting environment. They will normally use the data daily
(or at least frequently). They need specific data that is often actiona ble, on a timely basis. In BW
Reporting landscape 80% users falls under this category, who refer to B W reports and initiate
actions. This category of users does not have authorization for creation of new reports. These users
will be using Bex analyzer as their front end. BW front end Client installation will be required for
this category of users.
9.3 Executives or Explorer

This category of users will be using summary, high level, personalized data with the option for in -
depth analysis. Usage can be active but not necessarily daily. They need data that is converted into
information that is accessible in predefined analysis paths. The user of this category evaluates
information for strategic planning, medium-term planning, and for insights into why things o ccur
and what to do about them. These users can have multi dimensional slice and dice of the data. This
category of users also does not have authorization for creation of new reports. In CLIENT business
scenario only Business Controllers are expected in t his category. BW front end Client installation will
be required for this category of users.
9.4 Authors and Analyst

This category of users will be creating reports and use information actively but maybe not on a daily
bases. They need data that provides insight into the business. They need advanced analysis
functionality. This category of users includes the Project Team member, Power User and Business
analyst. BW front end Client installation will be required for this category of users.
9.5 Authorization
All users, who want to display data from BW system in a report, will require analysis authorization.
This type of authorization is not based on the standard authorization concept of SAP. Instead, these
authorizations use their own concept that takes the features of reporting and analysis in BW into
consideration. Using the special authorization concept of BW for the display of report data, it will be
possible to protect especially critical data in a much better way.
It is important to note in this context that reporting analysis authorizations of BW system are not
connected to SAP ECC authorization. This means, a user can not have authorization for plant xxxx in
ECC but can have reporting analysis authorization in BW system for plant xxxx and vice-versa.
