3. AETOS-HAWKEYE MONITOR AND APOD
AETOS-HAWKEYE Monitor is the management oversight dashboard that is used to monitor code
development on a continuous basis. AETOS-HAWKEYE Monitor provides deep visibility of code
that violates best practices and AETOS-HAWKEYE gives management actionable and precise
results.
The scanning tool provides extensive analytical capability for targeted, effective and efficient
improvement in code quality. We provide tools that take a complex set off programs and look at
every line of code then help determine where there are issues and how those issues can be most
efficiently addressed. The scanning tool lets you penetrate the layers of your SAP/ERP code. Our
scanning software quickly reviews all custom lines of code and checks against more than 500 rules
for violations (in ABAP, Java, .Net or C++) and reports back on every line of code that violates
those rules via an easy-to-use dashboard that makes code transparent. This provides a snapshot of
any issues that reside in the corporate ERP programs.
3.1 AETOS-HAWKEYE Monitor severity classification
AETOS-HAWKEYE Monitor provides a severity classification of each rule according to
the degree of impact each rule could have on the organization – from a scale of 1 (most
impact) to 5 (least impact):
THE AETOS-IT SOLUTION
MONITOR THE DEVELOPMENT, QUALITY ASSURANCE & PRODUCTION SYSTEMS

 S1: These rules will detect custom code known to cause issues in production.
Issues range from performance and security to data integrity and program stability.
 S5: These rules represent violations of strongly recommended coding standards
that are seen as good software development practices. An example of an S5 violation is the
use of field names that are the same as SAP™ types, or obsolete language constructs.
3.2 AETOS-HAWKEYE Monitor business risk
AETOS-HAWKEYE Monitor provides an indication of the type of business risk
resulting from non-compliant code:
Stability - This refers to the degree to which the program is behaving predictably and reliably.
Issues impacting the stability of the system will cause abrupt halts, program dumps, or
technical error messages that are meaningless to a business user.
Maintainability - Rules about the maintainability of the system will detect issues that will
cause unnecessary expense when the system has to be transferred to new programming teams.
Unmaintainable code is poorly documented, may have hard coded values, or is using inline
macros that are difficult to debug.
Performance - Users expect programs to be stable and to respond quickly. Performance
issues will cause frustration in the business and undermine the value of the software. In
particular, where systems use shared resources (as in most ERP implementations) a poorly
performing object will have unintended consequences in unrelated parts of the organization.
Integrity - Programs may be efficient, and stable. But if database statements are poorly
designed, the results of the code may not be accurate. If return codes are not checked, the
program logic flow will not be predictable. Rules related to Data Integrity will focus on
detecting code that is known to cause unpredictable results.
Poor Practice - AETOS-HAWKEYE includes a number of rules intended to detect poorly
written code that may not result in the above business vulnerabilities, but is considered to be
obsolete, or un-recommended. Businesses with excessive code in this category will be
vulnerable to excessive time and effort spent on upgrades, or code that is hard to debug and
maintain.
Unpredictability - This is a broad category that deals with code that may behave different
than the programmer intended. Often times, it is just easy to do it a certain way without
knowing the consequence. Consequently, these statements are often (unknowingly) applied
inappropriately to the desired functionality and can result in disastrous outcome.
Every night, AETOS-HAWKEYE will apply rules to all custom code to detect any code that
is not compliant with corporate coding guidelines. Once the scan is completed, the results are
available online at www.hawkeyemonitor.com.

3.4 Overall Health of the Custom Code Landscape
OVERVIEW
Through the automatic application of 500+ best practice patterns – both from SAP and built in-
house at AETOS-IT – millions of lines of code can be diagnosed for potential defects that could
cause harm to the business.
Incidents by Severity
The graphic depicts the number of
incidents detected. Severity levels can be
configured as required by customer.
Incidents by Business Risk
Rules are classified into business risk
areas. The categories apply to all
technologies supported by AETOS-IT
(ABAP, JAVA, C#, PLSQL). Upgrade
risks for the SAP product are shown in a
different gadget. The S1 and S2
incidents, in summary below.
Direct Table Updates – Possible Data Integrity Issue
Drilldown from this gadget (and from all
gadgets) expose the object/sub object and
line number of the location of the
violation.
If the practice of updating tables directly
continues, databases can become corrupt
and unrecoverable.

T: 082 560 9134
Page 15 of 22
Rule Violations – All Violations
Drilldown from this panel will expose the
exact location in the code responsible for
the defect.
Filtering capabilities allow the user to
pick out only S1 items, or S1 items that
are rated as LOW effort and HIGH impact
(see next slide).
Summary of Rule Violations - S1, S2, Low Effort Violations
This view is with rule violations that are
LOW effort to fix. EFFORT and
IMPACT classifications are also
configurable by the user.
Rules classified as LOW EFFORT
indicate problems that can be resolved
immediately with no consequence to the
logic flow of a program.
Hard Coded Tokens
Hard coded values are dangerous artifacts
in production code, especially if the hard
coded tokens are business values prone to
change.
This gadget allows the user to create ad
hoc patterns as needed to find the hard
coded values in the code. Drilldowns
from each rule will expose the hard coded
token.

T: 082 560 9134
Page 16 of 22
Obsolete Elements
In order to minimize upgrade risks,
AETOS-IT exposes all obsolete elements
in the source code. SAP’s built in rules are
leveraged to identify obsolete elements.
DESIGN ISSUES
In addition to coding guidelines, AETOS-IT also monitors design considerations like cyclomatic
complexity, nesting depth levels, and fan in/fan out.
Nesting Depth
Programs with a nesting depth greater
than 4 levels are suspect and should be
discouraged.
In this example, 4 procedures have IF-
THEN-ELSE statements that are nested
>12 levels deep.
Not only does this practice cause the code
to be next to impossible to understand, but
testing and QA processes become
needlessly more complicated.
Cyclomatic Complexity
Cyclomatic complexity measures the
number of paths through a piece of code.
AETOS-IT recommends a CC threshold
of 25 to ensure maintainability and test
case coverage.
In this example, 536 procedures have a
CC value of >80. Software with CC
values of 25 and over have been
demonstrated to have a higher probability
of defects and support requirements due
to bugs.

T: 082 560 9134
Page 17 of 22
Code Size
Objects greater than 500 lines of code are
typically prone to high maintenance costs
and have a greater likelihood of defects.
In this example, 77 procedures were
detected with a code size of >3,500.
While it is sometimes difficult to
retroactively deal with this (and other
issues), AETOS-IT recommends a “0
tolerance” policy for new development
subsequent to a baseline date.
QUALITY ACCEPTANCE CRITERIA
In addition to coding guidelines, AETOS-IT provides an easy facility to set up corporate quality
guidelines.
Corporate Quality Criteria
In this case, for example, objects are
classified as “CLEAN UP”, “REBUILD”
or “KEEP” depending on the severity of
the issues. These classifications are user
configurable.
This profile represents the following
corporate acceptance criteria:
 “zero tolerance” for any S1 violation
 an expectation that documentation
levels will be >= 25% of the total
lines of code
 no program will have decision trees
nested more than 5 deep
 cyclomatic complexity will be <=
20
 all programs will be less than 1,500
lines of code.

T: 082 560 9134
Page 18 of 22
Transport Approval
By adding corporate approval rules for
transports, vendors or tech leads get a
continuous assessment of the quality of
transports.
In this case, transports are approved in
spite of some documentation issues.
Approval rules are configurable by admin
users.
By continuously exposing this report to
vendors, development teams can
proactively deal with rejected transports
prior to the release dates to eliminate
rework (and arguments).
WHERE TO INTERVENE
Once acceptance criteria have been implemented, our FAN reports will provide management
with input on where expensive resources should be applied.
FAN-IN
The size of these bubbles indicates the
number of lines of code. By plotting the
objects using the fan-in value against the
violation density, all objects in the NE
quadrant have a high fan-in value (beyond
a threshold of 20 in this case) and a
violation density of over 50 (per 1,000
lines of code) need to be assessed.
This is especially true if the bubbles are
red, as these objects have also failed
quality criteria set up for the company.
Drilling down from the object layer will
provide visibility at the program level.

T: 082 560 9134
Page 19 of 22
FAN-OUT
Similar to FAN-IN, objects with a high
fan-out are prone to propagating errors
across the system and should also be
inspected for remediation.
In this example, there are several small
(bubble size) objects that have a
significant FAN-OUT value.
A manual inspection of these programs is
recommended to remove chances of
issues cascading to other parts of the
landscape.
FROM ASSESSMENT TO CONTINUOUS MONITORING
Corporations who wish to eliminate coding hazards from their landscape opt to set up a “0-
tolerance” paradigm to encourage all developers to consistently adhere to best practices. AETOS-
IT continuously monitors the development landscape and exposes issues as they are detected.
This provides management with the ability to intervene immediately and with precision. AETOS-
IT Monitor provides all the reports available in the ASSESSMENT product, but only for code
that has changed since the baseline date.
AETOS-IT Monitor
This graphic shows a view for each
system and progress towards “0 Defects”
over time. AETOS-IT can accommodate
multiple technologies on the same
dashboard.
In addition to the trend graphs, when
continuous monitoring is in effect,
sparklines in gadgets provide an at-a-
glance view of the trends.
AD HOC ALERTS – All hard coding violations
Users can set up ad hoc alerts to monitor
specific watch lists (developers, objects,
transports) over time.
Alerts can be set up to either display the
trends on the application, or to
automatically push the data to specified
users on the alert.
