System Landscape Requirements

In order to be able to implement this app, your system landscape has to be enabled for SAP Fiori. Depending on the database type serving as the basis in your system landscape, it has to be set up for SAP Fiori and has to meet the respective prerequisites:

The SAP product version in the back-end system serving as the the basis for the app must be the following:

Required Back-End Product (Product Version Stack)

  • SAP enhancement package 8 for SAP ERP 6.0 (01 (01/2016))
  • SAP enhancement package 7 for SAP ERP 6.0 (11 (01/2016))
Each SAP Fiori app consists of front-end components and back-end components:
  • The front-end components of the app consist of the user interfaces and content required for launching the app on the SAP Fiori launchpad. These components have to be installed on your front-end server.

  • The back-end components of the app mainly consist of the OData services required for the app. These components have to be installed in your back-end system.

The front-end and back-end components of the app are delivered with the following SAP product versions as part of the listed software components. The required software components for the app are contained in the listed product instances:

  • SAP enhancement package 7 for SAP ERP 6.0 (11 (01/2016))
  • Central Applications
  • Master Data Governance

SAP_APPL 617 (0001 )

For more information about the installation of front-end components, see http://help.sap.com/fiori_implementation.

The app offers the possibility to upload documents. For security reasons, we strongly recommend that you install an appropriate virus scanner in your respective back-end system and define sufficiently restrictive scan profiles to prevent the upload of malicious content. For more information about virus scanning and scan profiles for SAP Fiori apps, see Virus Scanning.

Required SAP Notes

On the back-end server, the following SAP notes must be implemented for this app:

SAP Note Number

Description

1955289 Information published on SAP site

Release Information Note for SAP Fiori Apps for Material Requirements Planning

On the front-end server, the following SAP notes must be implemented for this app:

Enable App for Access in SAP Fiori Launchpad

To define the access of single users to this app in the SAP Fiori launchpad, technical content is delivered, such as catalogs and example roles.

You can find an overview of the delivered technical content for this SAP Fiori app in the SAP Fiori apps reference library.

For more information about how to procede with this content, see Enable App for Access in SAP Fiori Launchpad.

Front-End Server and Back-End Server: Assign OData Service Authorizations to Users

You must assign OData service authorizations for the app to your users.

Note

Several authorization default values are connected to the OData service. To ensure that all these default values are assigned to a user, you have to follow the instructions given under the documentation links provided.

Make the assignment on the back-end server and on the front-end server :
  • On the back-end server, a dedicated authorization role (PFCG role) for the OData service is delivered as an example. You can copy this role and adjust it to your needs.

  • On the front-end server , you must assign the OData service authorization to a new or existing role, such as a business role that has been adjusted according to your needs.

OData Service (Version Number)

Back-End Server: Delivered Authorization Role (PFCG Role)

Front-End Server : Assignment to Authorization Role

PP_MRP_COCKPIT_SRV (001 )

In addition, this role contains authorizations to display the related business data.

  • SAP_PP_PRDORDIS_MR_APP

Note

In addition, this role contains authorizations to display the related business data.

OData service authorization must be assigned.

Prerequisites for Implementation

Before implementing the app, you must ensure the following:

  • You have configured the Material Requirements Planning component in the back-end system. For more information, see Customizing for Production under Material Requirements Planning.

  • You have assigned the authorizations in the back-end system that are required for displaying the Stock/Requirements List (transaction MD04) to the business users of the Monitor Production Orders or Process Orders app.

  • You have installed and configured the Material fact sheet.

Configuration Tasks

To be able to implement the app, you must perform the following configuration tasks in the back-end system:

Default configuration settings are provided for this app in Customizing for Production under Start of the navigation path Material Requirements Planning Next navigation step Apps for Material Requirements Planning Next navigation step General Settings End of the navigation path. Check if the SAP standard configuration settings in the following Customizing activities meet your business requirements. If this is the case, no further changes are necessary. Otherwise you can tailor the following Customizing settings to your needs:

  • Define Supply and Demand Profiles

    In the activity Define Supply and Demand Profiles you can create your own supply and demand profiles. Here, you organize your supply and demand elements into groups that you assign to the material shortage definitions in a later Customizing step. This filters the supply and demand elements to be used for the calculations.

  • Define Material Shortage Profiles

    In the activity Define Material Shortage Profiles you can create your own material shortage profile. The material shortage profile contains the individual material shortage definitions that you can select in the app in the Shortage Definition drop-down box. The shortage definition contains the specific set of rules for calculating the material shortage or uncovered demand.

    Note

    If you want to check the coverage of components in the Monitor Production Orders or Process Orders app, you have to select the Check Comps checkbox together with the UncvrdDmnd checkbox for the respective shortage definitions. For consistency purposes, a shortage profile can only contain one shortage definition that is used to check the coverage of manufacturing order components. This shortage definition is then used for the component checks of manufacturing orders in the Monitor Production Orders or Process Orders app.

  • Assign Material Shortage Profile to Users

    In the activity Assign Material Shortage Profile to Users, you can assign the material shortage profile to your users. This controls the material shortage definitions the user can choose from in the app. If you make no changes here, the system automatically uses the SAP standard material shortage profile for all users.
