As of Release 3.0, you can create several implementation projects via Project Management in Customizing. The following control functions are determined for every implementation project:
The definition of the project scope (Project IMG) is carried out on the basis of the Country and Function Selection for the Enterprise IMG. For the Project IMG, you can choose individual countries and functions from the Enterprise IMG.
If you only work with one implementation project, you can copy the the Enterprise IMG.
You can create any number views of the Poject IMG to structure your implementation project. The following options are available:
Within Project Management in Customizing, you can load the data for an implementation project from the R/3 System to a PC with the function "Up/Download". The transferred data is stored in an MPX file and includes the following information:
On the PC, you can process this file further with a project management program (for example: MS Project).
You can restore the project data, which you changed with the PC program, into the R/3 System. In this case, only the changes to the activity data are transferred.
If you make changes to the project structure, these changes are not transferred.
You can extend the structure of the SAP Reference IMG in the R/3 System.
You can carry out the function "Up/Download" on PCs on which the MS-DOS or OS/2 operating systems are installed.
For reasons of compatibility, we recommend that you start the PC program in the language version under which you were logged on to the R/3 System when you transferred the project data.
Please refer to the Customizing manual and the program documentation on the Function "Up/Download" for further information.
