What Is SAP

What is SAP
SAP stands for Systeme, Anwendungen, Produkte in der Datenverarbeitung or in english '
Systems, Applications, and Products in Data Processing'.
SAP is the leading Enterprise Information and Management Package worldwide. Use of this
package makes it possible to track and manage, in real-time, sales, production, finance
accounting and human resources in an enterprise.
SAP is the third-largest software company in the world. Founded in 1972, The company now
employs more than 22,000 people in more than 50 countries. SAP global headquarters are
located in Walldorf, Germany, and the company is listed on several stock exchanges, including
the Frankfurt DAX and the New York Stock Exchange, under the symbol "SAP."
SAP America is a subsidiary of SAP AG, the recognized leader in providing collaborative, interenterprise software and e-business solutions. A truly global software provider, SAP AG has more
than 1000 partners, 22 industry solutions and 10 million users at 30,000 installations around the
world. SAP America has contributed significantly to this leadership position, and it is the foremost
provider of e-business and enterprise software in the United States.
Why use SAP ?

SAP software was developed to be modular, scaleable, open and flexible, allowing companies to
tailor it specifically to their needs. SAP calls this approach to implementing software "configure to
order" because each implementation will be different according to each customer's needs.
But SAP solutions don't stop there. Information integration is a major tenet of the SAP philosophy,
and SAP places great emphasis on the creation of tools that facilitate it. SAP provides integration
tools and methods for linking legacy and distributed systems as well as a host of third party
software solutions, to get your information into the right hands, internally and externally.
Solution from Traditional approach
Traditional Information technology systems used by many business today have been developed
to accomplish some specific task and provide reports and analysis of events that have already
taken place. Examples are accounting general ledger systems. Occasionally, some systems
operate in a "real-time" mode that is, have up to date information in them and can be used to
actually control events. A typical company has many separate systems to manage different
processes like production, sales and accounting. Each of these systems has its own databases
and seldom passes information to other systems in a timely manner.
SAP takes a different approach. There is only one information system in an enterprise, SAP. All
applications access common data. Real events in the business initiate transactions. Accounting is
done automatically by events in sales and production. Sales can see when products can be
delivered. Production schedules are driven by sales. The whole system is designed to be realtime and not historical.
SAP structure embodies what are considered the "best business practices". A company
implementing SAP adapts it operations to it to achieve its efficiencies and power.
The process of adapting procedures to the SAP model involves "Business Process Reengineering" which is a logical analysis of the events and relationships that exist in an
enterprise's operations.

Enterprise-Wide Integration
Enterprise-wide integration is the main functionality of SAP R/3 System. No other application
software offers the breadth of open systems, client/server functionality, functional links between
processes that multiply the power of each person's work. The R/3 System's components are fully
integrated. Once you enter data, it resides in the central database shared by all R/3 components.
Transaction-related process chains trigger the next activity as needed from engineering to
production planning to sales and distribution. The R/3 System's full integration pulls your
enterprise together, promoting data access, flexibility, and productivity.
Real-Time Information
SAP provides up-to-the-minute, real-time information.
Architecture
SAP R/3 system is based on Client/Server architecture that is comprised of three tiers:
Presentation server: Your local PC that has SAPGUI.
Application server: The application server is used to run the business application programs in
the R/3 client/server concept. The application modules are loaded from the data base server to
the application server as required. Thus the application server requires only storage capacity to
accommodate UNIX, Swapping and the SAP runtime environment.
Database server: The data base server stores the SAP application programs and data in the R/3
client/server concept. It also handles the SAP update program and batch jobs.
SAP Application Modules
SAP has several layers. The Basis System is the heart of the data operations and should be not
evident to higher level or managerial users. Other customizing and implementation tools exist
also. The heart of the system from a managers viewpoint is the application modules. These
modules may not all be implemented in a typical company but they are all related and are listed
below:

Sales and Distribution
Financial Accounting -- is designed for automated management and external reporting of
general ledger, accounts receivable, accounts payable and other sub-ledger accounts with a
user defined chart of accounts. As entries are made relating to sales production and payments
journal entries are automatically posted. This connection means that the "books" are designed
to reflect the real situation.
Controlling -- represents the company's flow of cost and revenue. It is a management
instrument for organizational decisions. It too is automatically updated as events occur.
Asset Management--is designed to manage and supervise individual aspects of fixed assets
including purchase and sale of assets, depreciation and investment management.
Project System -- is designed to support the planning, control and monitoring of long-term,
highly complex projects with defined goals.
Workflow -- links the integrated SAP application modules with cross-application technologies,
tools and services
Industry Solutions -- combines the SAP application modules and additional industry-specific
functionality. Special techniques have been developed for industries such as banking, oil and
gas, pharmaceuticals, etc.
Human Resources -- is a complete integrated system for supporting the planning and control
of personnel activities.
Plant Maintenance--In a complex manufacturing process maintenance means more than
sweeping the floors. Equipment must be services and rebuilt. These tasks affect the production
plans.
Materials Management--supports the procurement and inventory functions occurring in dayto-day business operations such as purchasing, inventory management, reorder point
processing, etc.
Quality Management--is a quality control and information system supporting quality planning,
inspection, and control for manufacturing and procurement.
Production Planning--is used to plan and control the manufacturing activities of a company.
This module includes; bills of material, routings, work centers, sales and operations planning,
master production scheduling, material requirements planning, shop floor control, production
orders, product costing, etc
Sales and Distribution--helps to optimize all the tasks and activities carried out in sales,
delivery and billing. Key elements are; pre-sales support, inquiry processing, quotation
processing, sales order processing, delivery processing, billing and sales information system.
SAP Hardware Platforms

The SAP R/2 system that was released in 1979 runs on mainframes like IBM, BS 2000 ( Seimens
machines ) or Amdahl. The next version, SAP R/3 client/server software system has been
designed for open systems like UNIX. SAP has established a partnership with IBM which
provides a wide choice of servers, operating systems and databases for implementing R/3. These
servers provide scalability, performance, high availability and investment protection needed to
support a successful R/3 implementation. Some of IBM's server and database offerings include:
RS/6000 for UNIX , AS/400 Advanced Series for integrated server and database platform, PC
servers for reliable Microsoft NT solutions, S/390 database servers and DB2 family for database
support. IBM Netfinity 7000 and IBM PC Server 330 and 704 provide the reliable foundation you
need for SAP R/3 applications for Microsoft NT. The platforms offered by IBM provide latest
Pentium Pro technology, Ultra fast throughput, Storage flexibility and upgradable system
components.
SAP R/3 runs on a variety of databases such as Oracle, Informix, Online, ADABAS-A, DB2 for
Unix, DB/400, Microsoft SQL Server 6 and on an experimental version on DB2 for MVS.
SAP R/3 is based on various hardware and software architectures. It scales very well on SMP
systems and MPP architectures. The latest version of R 4.1, which is still in the developmental
stage, provides the Internet compatible business application package.
Hardware Partners
Since there are so many different platforms available in today's market, compatibility between
SAP and the customer's platform, Hardware partners play a very important role. Hardware
partners are leading hardware vendors who provide the computing hardware necessary to meet a
customer's system requirements. Working with both SAP and customers, hardware partners
continually develop and optimize products to meet the running business applications with SAP
software. Hardware partners have developed organizations to provide strong SAP support, from
product selection to system set-up, installation and ongoing performance tuning.
Some of the hardware partners are Amdahl, IBM, Bull, NCR, Compaq, NEC, Data General,
Sequent, Dell, Tandem, Digital, Siemens Nixdorf, Fujitsu, Sun, Hewlett-Packard, Sun, Unisys,
Hitachi and Intergraph.

How to get Developer key

Procedure explains how to obtain a developer key:
a) Log into OSS.
b) Click on the Registration button and then click the Register Developer
button.
c) Select appropriate customer installation.
d) Enter the user ID in the user box,.
e) Click on the Register button.
f) Copy the KEY (by highlighting and using ctrl/c for copy and ctrl/v for paste)
and email the user of his key. The ctrl/c, ctrl/v ensures that the complete key
is copied since it is a very long number.
g) Click the Cancel button when done or click the Register button to register
another developer.
h) Click the green ' ' to exit.
Logical filename and Path

What is the use of Logical filename and its object.
The logical filename should be defined in the transaction FILE. It is mapped to a
physical directory. The Logical filename allows setting the name of the file at its level or
allows the developer to build himself the filename (through the variables <PARAM_1>
and <PARAM_2>.
Create Logical file name object using transaction SE24.
BACKGROUND PROCESSING IN SAP R/3
1.
What the scheduler can do
Many steps within a job : A job can consist of many steps, each running a different
program. Each step waits for the previous step to run before it starts.
Periodic jobs: A job can be scheduled to run every minute, hour, day, month, or any
other specified time frame.
Dependent jobs: A jobs can be scheduled to wait for another job to finish before it
executes.
2. What the scheduler cannot do
3.
Periodic dependent jobs: If you have a job that runs every night and another that
depends on it, the dependent job will run the first time, but not again after that.
Continuing a job that has crashed: If a job crashes on step 1, the whole job stops,
and there is no way to continue processing.
Re-running from certain job steps: If your job crashes at step 2, there is no facility to
re-run, without changing the job and removing step 1 so it does not run again.
Waiting for a Batch Input Session: If you run a job which runs RSBDCSUB, the
second step will not wait for the batch input session to process, as it is executing in a
separate job.
Suggested methods for processing
4.
Using a self-scheduling job: A program can be set up to re-schedule itself in a job

after a specified time. This is more flexible than a periodic job.
Jobs that create other jobs: An alternative to dependent jobs, is to run a program in
the first job which will create the next job.
Jobs that wait for other jobs: You can write a custom program that waits for a
specified job, and runs a batch input session. Use this as a step in your job after a
batch input session has run.
System messaging
5.
Information and Success messages: Write the message text to the job log. Program
and job continues as normal.
Error and Abend messages: Write the message text to the job log. Stop the current
program from running. Cancel the entire job. -> any dependent programs must be
scheduled in a different job
Suggested methods for error handling & reprocessing
If subsequent steps in a job are not dependent on the first one finishing successfully,
the first program should be set up to crash using a success message followed by the
STOP statement.
Before every error message, call a routine which notifies the Operations Center of
error type, severity, action, etc.
BATCH INPUT Object

1.
(for ver 4X)
What is the use of Batch Input object ?
Batch Input is a SAP functionality that allows automating input of data via SAP transactions,
commonly known as BDC (Batch Data Commands). BDC works in the following ways:
the transaction is called directly within the calling program

the scenario is included in a session that could be launched afterwards.
In most companies, programs that handle Batch Input are duplicating the functions that builds
this scenario, creates the session or calls the transactions.
Therefore, create a custome Abap Object, eg. Z_BATCHINPUT. This object should have all
the needed functions and makes some basic checks (e.g. that the program is not creating two
sessions at the same time). The main advantages of using an object are :
Code is no more duplicated throughout all of the BI programs

Way to submit the sessions becomes standardized.
The object class Z_BATCHINPUT should be created (and/or transported) into all target systems.
It uses basically all the datatypes available for the BDC functions. It calls the following functions :
BDC_OPEN_GROUP : Opens a session group
BDC_CLOSE_GROUP : Closes a session
BDC_INSERT : Insert a BDC scenario in the session
The ABAP statement "CALL TRANSACTION" is also called to run directly a transaction
from its BDC table.
It runs the program RSBDCSUB in order to launch automatically the session. The session
management is done through the transaction code SM35.
The object itself is maintanable through the transaction SE24.
Function of the object Z_BATCHINPUT

The above object should allow to handle three kinds of Batch Input behaviour :
1. Building a BDC table and calling a transaction
2. Building a session and a set of BDC scenarios and keeping the session
available in SM35,
3. Building a session and lauching the transaction right after closing the session.
To achieve these operations, the object Z_BATCHINPUT should offer a set of methods :
Method
Description
Opens a session
OPEN_SESSION
Closes a session
Parameters
SUBRC (Return Code 0 OK)
SESSIONNAME (Session to be created)
None
CLOSE_SESSION
RESET_BDCDATA
Resets the BDC Internal

Table...
Handles a new screen
BDC_DYNPRO
BDC_FIELD
CONSTRUCTOR
RUN_SESSION
CALL_TRANSACTION
Puts a value on the

screen
Constructor - Initializes
NO_DATA
Launches a session with
RSBDCBTC
Calls a transaction with
the current BDC Data
None. Normally, for internal purpose

PROGNAME (Name of the program)
DYNPRONR (Screen Number)
FIELDNAME (Name of the field)
FIELDVALUE (Value to be passed)
NODATA (No data character). The
constructor is called automatically when
the object is created.
None
MODE (Display Mode)
UPDATE (Update Mode)
BDC_INSERT
Inserts the BDC scenario

in the session
TCODE (Transaction to be called)

TCODE (Transaction to be called)
To complete the different scenarii explained above, some sequences should be followed :
1)
Building a BDC table and calling a transaction :
the object batch input should be created (CREATE OBJECT =>

method CONSTRUCTOR)
the method RESET_BDCDATA could be called (if the object has
already been used)
several methods BDC_DYNPRO and BDC_FIELD could be called
then, at the last, the method CALL_TRANSACTION should be called.
2) Building a session and a set of BDC scenarios and keeping the session available in
SM35 :
the object batch input should be created (CREATE OBJECT =>

method CONSTRUCTOR)
the method RESET_BDCDATA could be called (if the object has
already been used),
several methods BDC_DYNPRO and BDC_FIELD could be called
then, at the last, the method BDC_INSERT should be called.
At the end, the method CLOSE_SESSION MUST be called.
3) Building a session and lauching the transaction right after closing the session.
The previous steps should be followed (the ones explained for the
session),
At the end, the method RUN_SESSION should be called (after the
CLOSE_SESSION).
