Some basic question about SCM Installation

Former Member

Hi Folks,

Could you please advice me about some basic questions about SCM and its installation -

Q1. Do I need to have an R/3 System to be able to practice OR demo the SCM system?

Q2. If, yes, which version of SCM is compatible with the ECC 5.0?

Q3. What are the basic requirements to install SCM (version compatible with ECC 5.0) and ECC on a oracle db and windows OS?

Q4. Does SCM have APO and BI as an inbuilt functionality OR does the user need to purchase these as an Add-On?

I know these are some basic questions, but these will help me give me a direction.

With best wishes,

Krishna

Hello Krishna -

Q1. Do I need to have an R/3 System to be able to practice OR demo the SCM system?

---> There are various Modules in SCM Like APO (Sub Modules DP (stand alone), SNP Needs Master data from R/3 and has to pass on transactional Data to R/3, PPDS same as SNP, GATP same as SNP), ICH needs Data from R/3 to work with. Core Interface (CIF) connects R/3 to APO for transferring data.

Q2. If, yes, which version of SCM is compatible with the ECC 5.0?

-->For thorough understanding explore the following links

Q3. What are the basic requirements to install SCM (version compatible with ECC 5.0) and ECC on a oracle db and windows OS?

-->Refer Above

Q4. Does SCM have APO and BI as an inbuilt functionality OR does the user need to purchase these as an Add-On?

--> APO comes with a small BI inbuilt functionality. you can only perform certain functions using that BI.

Hope this helps.
