What is FCS?
Project launched in April 2007, first go live in July 2008.
FCS stands for Faurecia Core System
FCS is an IT application based on SAP (FI/CO/MM/SD/PP/PS …)
FCS is fully based on FCP (Faurecia Core Procedures) and FES (Faurecia Excellence System) Objectives :
Provide a solution covering the whole scope, including program
controlling (before serial life)
Provide a standardized solution to all plants, based on FCP
Support the development of finance shared services
Implement a common IT core system so we have only
one system to be maintained.

IM Accelerators
oAfter activation of HANA the data base access is ~4 times faster while the MB51 total response time is ~2 times faster after.
oOn the other hand the usage increased ~20%.
o Just DB acceleration does not bring the highest benefit.

HANA for FCS Z-Tcodes Example ZP93 = Vendor Delivery Adherence
oZP93 is the original transaction using DB2 for data selection.
oZP93H is the DB/HANA accelerator for the original transaction ZP93: an identical copy of ZP93 from ABAP perspective.
oZP93H_2 is revised code version adapted to HANA philosophy.
30 times faster

JIT Buffer Accelerator
oIn JIT whenever the master data is changed these are updated in the database and not in the shared buffer. Hence the reorganization of the application servers buffers needs to be triggered.
oWe face performance issues in this process due to the high frequency of master data changes and overlapping of inbound/outbound processes, so we had to give up the real-time sync process.
JITSB (MA) refresh takes about 5 min per server.
Initial POC (4s) shows we may achieve < 2s

Conclusions
HANA Accelerators is a good starting point…
…great if you think Kaizen.
Minor impact on existing infrastructure and investment.
Ramp up your internal knowledge to identify opportunities.
DB optimization is good but the really breakthrough comes with ABAP code review and optimization.
