This section describes how to configure the ERP-Shop Floor Integration for SAP OEE Management.

Process

  1. You send OEE-relevant IDocs from SAP ERP to ERP-Shop Floor Integration framework.

    For more information, see ERP-Shop Floor Integration and Customizing for ALE for Communication with SAP OEE.

  2. The IDocs are received by the IDoc message listener configured in SAP NetWeaver by the SAP OEE Integration Configuration CTC wizard. For more information, see SAP OEE Integration Configuration CTC.

  3. For the IDoc message type, the SAP OEE Integration Configuration CTC wizard configures the message processing rule. Based on the rule, the OEE-relevant IDocs are categorized with the category name SAPOEEINT_INBOUND_QUEUE.

  4. The OEE-relevant schedulers are configured by the SAP OEE Integration Configuration CTC wizard.

    You can view the following OEE schedulers from the SAP MII main menu Start of the navigation path System Management Next navigation step Scheduler End of the navigation path:

    • The OEEInboundMessageEnqueuer scheduler picks the OEE-relevant messages from the SAP MII Message Queue, which can be seen in the message monitor and classifies the IDocs to the corresponding IDoc type and enqueues them into the OEE Message Queue.

    • The OEEConfirmationsEnqueuer scheduler reads data from OEE database tables for completed release demands and enqueues them in the OEE Message Queue.

      If you have enabled periodic confirmation to SAP ERP under Start of the navigation path Worker UI Management Next navigation step General Configuration End of the navigation path then the scheduler sends confirmations to SAP ERP at the period you set. Confirmations are sent even if the release demand is not complete.

    • The OEEMessageDispatcher scheduler saves the IDoc data into different OEE database tables based on the IDoc type.

      The scheduler saves the IDoc data based on the workflow configured for that IDoc type in ERP-Shop Floor Integration -> Workflow Configuration. It also sends order-operation completion confirmations to SAP ERP at a scheduled frequency. For this, it reads the OEE Message Queue for confirmations and uses the order confirmation Business Application Programming Interface (BAPI) to send information to SAP ERP.

      The scheduler sends confirmation to SAP ERP based on the workflow configured for the confirmation type in the Workflow Configuration.

      For more information, see SAP MII Configurations for ERP-Shop Floor Integration.

    • The OEEQueueMessageCleaner scheduler deletes messages from the Start of the navigation path ERP-Shop Floor Integration Next navigation step Queue Monitor End of the navigation path at a scheduled frequency. You enter this frequency when you run the SAP OEE Integration Configuration CTC wizard.

      The scheduler deletes messages that have already been processed successfully or have failed. It does not delete messages that are new or have not reached the maximum retry attempts at processing. You can change the maximum number of processing attempts in the workflow defined for that IDoc type at Start of the navigation path ERP-Shop Floor Integration Next navigation step Workflow Configuration End of the navigation path.

    You can also change the configuration of the schedulers as per your requirement.
