roll out methodology in sap

[former_member208541]

Hi,

our clinet has SAP 4.7 installed in denmark. now there will be a roll out in norway. my question is what are all the steps in a roll out for norway.

1) business blueprint :- what steps will be there

2) enterprise structure. :- norway will have different sale sorg. can we have the same compnay code as denmark.

2) what all exisiting scenarios can be copied from denmark for norway. i mean to say if denmark has stock transfer, rush order, cash sale. do we only need to have sales scenaiors for norway too or can we have sale transactions different from denmark

3) can we use exisitng document types used in denmark for norway. for instance if denmark is using standard order type ZSTD, do we compulsory have to use ZSTD for norway too or we can use a different naming convention (like ZNOR) for norway. the reson iam asking this is beause in a roll out, i think enterprise structure/documen types are on the same lines and only tax treatment is differnt.

4) we have Z tables used in sd module. can we use the same z tables for making entires for norway considering the busines transaction is same or we have to use new z tables for norway.

my main confusion is a roll out follows the same template as of the main country as in denmark.... ??

can any body explain from practical view point.

Hi there,

1) Business blue print is your understanding of the business process. It depends on any customized requirement for Norway.

2) Business should decide on weather they assign Norway to another coompany code. Accordingly you should define your org structure. Company code if defined by FI not SD.

3) Standard SAP transactions should be copied into Norway. Assign your order types & pricing, O/p, A/c determiantions to Norway sales area. Also maintain shiopping point & route determiantions for Norway. All the details to be provided by business.

4) Yes Z tables which are generic / transaction specific are not dependent on countries. You need to maintain them. Check if you need to develop any country specific codes.

Usually roll out proj will have the same functionility extended to other regions as well. So there may not be much change in the processs flow.

Check if there are any new condition types (taxes) / O/p types (shipping / invoice docs) required for Norway specific. Maintain them accordingly.
