The document discusses the steps for implementing SAP BI for the sales and distribution (SD) module. It outlines 9 steps: 1) understand the project plan and phases, 2) make basic server settings like global settings and permitted characters, 3) prepare for the functional module by understanding basic terminology, 4) arrange workshops to understand requirements, 5) map requirements to functional specifications, 6) design technical specifications, 7) configure ECC settings, 8) install and design BI content, and 9) transport settings. The goal is to provide guidance on implementing SAP BI for SD through setting up the necessary foundation and configurations.

Processes -> Extraction Monitor Settings -> Set Traffic Light Waiting Time
 The maximum wait time is specified according to the data element TIMESTAMP.
 The complete time display could be shown as follows:
 19980219091505: Date and time are displayed together
 70000: this is an abbreviated display that only shows hours (Seven hours wait time)

Requirement
All Rights Reserved-– No one else can use or transfer or sell without our permission For More trainings connect us as

24. Understanding Business Requirement
Step 3: Business Requirement
1. • There are three main perspectives that must be reconciled during any
requirement gathering process
1. Business perspective – Executives/management/sponsors
2. User perspective – BI users, business managers
3. Implementation perspective – Implementation team
2. • An effective requirements gathering takes into account each of these audiences
3. • Typically these requirements are managed from a low level of detail with business
perspective through the user perspective until technically laid out with an
implementation perspective
4. • Focus on deliverables
1. These deliverables need to be owned by the process teams,
2. not the BI team
5. • Focus on the entire solution
1. Do not simply build a series of data marts ,Think about how the data is
consolidated
6. Stakeholders do not adequately communicate, you need to help them-
1. The BI project becomes more about helping them shape their equirements
than it is about realizing these requirements

25. Step 1: Develop a complete understanding of the underlying business processes
Step 3: Business Requirement
1. If the end-user describes his information needs and subject area as,
‘Track the performance of materials with respect to customers and sales persons’
The following nouns relate to the end-user’s information needs:
 Material
 Customer
 Sales Person
The nouns are basic business terms and are usually called characteristics.
2. Ask the end-user how performance is measured.
This will give you the basic Key figures
3. In the next stage the customer is asked to be more precise and, in this case, determine that additional
details for material, customer and sales person are also required. It gives you additional characteristics
and attributes where attributes are the “describing fields” of an characteristics

26. 2. Reaping benefits of BW’s Business Content
Step 3: Business Requirement
1. In SAP product-based scenarios the Business Content datasources provide a good basis on which to
identify the characteristic, attributes and facts (key figures) of the underlying subject area.
2. As BW provides datasources ordered by applications, it is easy to identify the datasources which
cover(s) your subject area.
3. Perform Gap analysis, identify which fields can be covered by SAP BI content deli
