Migration Guide for CFM 

Implementation Considerations

This implementation guide provides an overview of the issues you need to consider when migrating from Treasury Management (TR-TM) to SAP Banking/SAP CFM or SAP R/3 Enterprise.

Integration

Treasury

The Treasury module delivered with the standard SAP R/3 system up to Release 4.6C comprised the following components:

 

 

SAP Banking/SAP CFM

After the core release 4.6C, several of the Treasury components were delivered with the SAP R/3 Add-On Release Banking 4.62/CFM 1.0, which comprised the new SAP CFM solution and the existing SAP Banking product. Some of the former Treasury components remained in the core R/3 system:

 

Corporate Finance Management Components (Add-On)	SAP Banking Components (Add-On)	Treasury Components (Core)
·         Basic Functions	·         Bank Customer Accounts (BCA)	·         Cash Management (TR-CM)
·         In-House Cash	·         Loans Management (FS-CML)	·         Cash Budget Management (TR-CBM)
·         Transaction Manager (CFM-TM)	·         Bank Profitability Analysis	·         Market Risk Management (TR-MRM)
General Functions	·         Risk Analysis
Money Market	·         Asset/Liability Management
Foreign Exchange	·         Default Risk and Limit System
Securities
Derivatives
Information System
·         Market Risk Analyzer
·         Credit Risk Analyzer
·         Portfolio Analyzer

Financial Services

SAP R/3 Enterprise consists of an SAP R/3 Enterprise Core and several SAP R/3 Extensions. The Extensions are delivered in an SAP R/3 Enterprise add-on.

SAP CFM and SAP Banking are being delivered with SAP R/3 Enterprise Financial Services 1.10, which follows on from Release Banking 4.63/CFM 2.0. The SAP R/3 Enterprise Financial Services Extension also contains the Investment Management component for insurance companies.

SAP R/3 Enterprise is based on the concept of decoupling developments in the SAP R/3 Enterprise Core (primarily infrastructure, quality, performance, and development to meet legal requirements) from new development in the SAP R/3 Enterprise Extensions. This enables you to deploy flexible implementation strategies for system upgrades and add the Extensions you need on a step-by-step basis.

In order to use the R/3 Enterprise functions that have replaced the former R/3 core components Treasury Management (TR-TM), Market Risk Management (TR-MRM) and Loans Management (TR-LO), you must activate the Financial Services Extension to R/3 Enterprise. The former Treasury Market Risk Management (TR-MRM) component is delivered as a CFM component in the SAP R/3 Enterprise Extension for Financial Services, and is no longer part of the SAP R/3 Enterprise Core.

By contrast, the Treasury components Cash Management (TR-CM) and Cash Budget Management (TR-CBM) still belong to the SAP R/3 Enterprise Core.
