1.3 Integration Scope
No integration is in scope.

1.4 Workflows, Reports, Interfaces, Conversions, Enhancements / Extensions and Forms


No Workflows, Reports, Interfaces, Conversions, Enhancements / Extensions, or Forms will be created or
delivered within the scope of this Service. Standard SAP Ariba code will be neither modified nor extended.

1.5 Data Migration Scope


No data migration is in scope.

1.6 SAP Cloud Service releases


Customer must go live at the release version of the SAP Cloud Service generally available as of the actual
go-live of the Service.
At least one quarterly update may usually be released for general availability during the duration of the
Services. In that case a Change Request will be required to perform any additional planning and
configuration required to support the updated release.

1.7 Third Party Software


No third-party software is in scope.

2. APPROACH AND RACI


The main project activities are detailed below with the assumed lead and support responsibility indicated.
Customer acknowledges and agrees that failure on the part of Customer to meet or fulfil any of the specified
Customer responsibilities or requirements in this document might result in a delay in the project and/or a
Change Request for additional SAP Ariba resources, an increase in project fees and/or a change in the
schedule.
The project follows the applicable parts of the SAP Activate methodology which has the phases described
below. The Customer has the overall accountability for the whole project and all its elements.
1. Prepare: After Customer has become familiar with the Cloud Services, the Engineered Service is
formally initiated and, the schedule, project plans and resources are agreed. The SAP test and
production realms are requested and created.
2. Explore: Workshops are conducted to perform a Fit-to-Standard analysis so as to validate the solution
functionality included in the project scope and confirm the business requirements can be satisfied.
Identified gaps for delta scope are added to the backlog for use in the next phase, specifying and
providing any necessary change requests as applicable.
3. Realize: The Customer-specific business scenarios and process requirements are built incrementally
through a series of time-boxed configuration and test iterations, including agreed delta scope. The
quality Q-system is set up. The test approach and any knowledge transfer are executed, and the
Customer User Acceptance Testing is completed. The cutover is planned.
4. Deploy: Final checks are made before the cutover to production P-system. End users are trained, and
ongoing support is put in place by the Customer. Business operations are switched to the P-system and
the implementation Services are closed.
A subsequent run phase in which the operability of the solution can be fine-tuned and options for
improvement can be considered is not in scope of this Engineered Service.
SAP Ariba and Customer agree the following responsibility matrix of activities per phase.
• Responsible (R): Charged with performing the activities. A mutually agreed project plan may define
further details at the work unit level.
• Accountable (A): The Customer has overall accountability for its implementation and all the activities
identified below. Hence, Accountable (A) does not appear for the activities below.
