ASAP FOR SAP POS ACCELERATED APPROACH

BASIC INFORMATION AND ASSET MASTER LIST

Background and Goal

The goal of this document is to give you an overview on the accelerated implementation approach for SAP POS and on the implementation accelerator package ASAP for SAP POS. The ASAP (Accelerated SAP) Methodology is the SAP roadmap for the implementation of SAP solutions. The ASAP Business Add-ons provide proven implementation content for implementation of various industry solutions. ASAP for SAP POS is an ASAP Business Add-On containing pre-packaged implementation expertise for SAP POS. It is based on the generic ASAP implementation roadmap (ASAP Core) and has been enriched by SAP POS specific tasks. POS-specific accelerator assets have been assigned along the ASAP roadmap structure. In this document, you will also find some basic assumptions for the accelerated implementation approach for SAP POS, and a master list of the POS specific accelerator assets.

ASAP for SAP POS as ASAP Add-On

Based on the more general methodology of ASAP, we provide a Business Add-On package ASAP for SAP POS with a solution specific ASAP roadmap and implementation content for accelerated SAP POS implementations. Here is an overview on the ASAP for SAP POS Add-On content:

SAP AG 2009 Copyright 2009 SAP AG. All rights reserved 2

The ASAP for SAP POS roadmap contains two different implementation options for SAP POS: 1. Implementation with integration into SAP backend (recommended implementation option). 2. Implementation without integration into SAP backend. In the roadmap, some POS specific remarks are assigned to tasks which are depending on the chosen option. For the accelerators POS Scope statement, POS Blueprint Master List and POS Project schedule, there are two versions available reflecting the two implementation options. It needs to be considered that not 100% of the SAP POS functionality is currently supported within SAP Standard integration content. In the POS Blueprint Master List integrated version, this is indicated per process.

ASAP for SAP POS Accelerated Approach and Basic Assumptions

SAP AG 2009 Copyright 2009 SAP AG. All rights reserved 3

The ASAP for SAP POS is based on an accelerated implementation approach. Key element for this is the Best Practice and Prototype-oriented Business Blueprint approach.

The ASAP for SAP POS Add-On contains a consistent POS implementation sample as accelerators in order to facilitate SAP POS implementations. The predefined Business Blueprint documents, which are based on customer Best Practices, are the basis for customer fitting of the POS Blueprint ( Best Practice Oriented Business Blueprint). In Accelerated SAP POS Implementations, at the beginning of the project, a baseline configuration is applied to the system (which may be on a Consultants laptop). In the Business Blueprint phase, the Baseline configuration is used as a prototype for demonstrating SAP POS functionalities to the customer close to reality and to validate the customer fit (Prototype oriented Business Blueprint). A SAP Note referring to the recommended Best Practice baseline configuration will be available soon (link will be added here). The assumption, at the onset, is that the customer will be implementing the baseline configuration and that only minor adjustments in both the configuration and the documentation would be required to meet the basic requirements.

For an accelerated POS implementation, it is recommended to leverage the POS specific accelerator assets provided with ASAP for SAP POS,

SAP POS Releases:

The ASAP for SAP POS Roadmap is based on the assumption that SAP POS release 2.2 will be the basis for the implementation. However, major parts of the information might nevertheless also be useful for other SAP POS releases.

POS Sample Blueprint Calendar POS: Accelerated Blueprint Approach and Guidelines POS Blueprint Workbook Master List with SAP Backend

This is a sample for a detailed blueprint calendar which can be distributed to the workshop participants beforehand This document outlines the approach and guidelines for performing the Business Blueprint for Accelerated SAP POS implementations. This is an Excel spreadsheet identifying the primary scenarios and processes that may fall under that functional area. This accelerator also serves as an overview on all Business Scenario Documents (BSR) and Business Process Requirement Documents (BPR) which together build the Business Blueprint. This document version describes a SAP POS implementation with integration into SAP backend. It contains also an overview on which SAP POS 2.2 processes are assumed in and which out of scope for the accelerated implementation approach with respect to integration into the SAP Backend. See above. This document version describes a SAP POS implementation without integration into SAP backend. Sample blueprint documents on scenario and process level are reflecting what our customers typically require of a POS system: Business Scenario Requirements (BSR) Documents: one for each functional area required at the POS Business Process Requirements (BPR) Documents: each BPR is associated with one BSR. The BSR and BPR Documents together build the Business Blueprint. For an overview on all BSR and BPR Documents, please refer to the POS Blueprint Workbook Master List (see above).
