 Status, Keywords, Documentation Types and Tabs

Use

Standard values for status, keywords, documentation types and tabs for your project, are all set in the same way in the project administration transaction. If no values have yet been assigned to a project, the project administrator can use the project template, which contains project-independent status values, keywords, documentation types and tab settings.

The values in the project template are available to all projects of a project type. The project administrator decides which values should be used and assigns values to the project from the project template.

A project template, which already contains values, is assigned to each project type. You can adapt the project template to your project requirements. You go to the templates for the project types, in the Project Administration , with Start of the navigation path Goto Next navigation step Project Template End of the navigation path .

Documentation Typestab

You can document the implementation and creation of templates in all types of projects, with various documentation types. You can use the various documentation types delivered by SAP as templates to structure your project documentation. You can also create your own documentation types for:

  • Minutes or decisions

  • Business Blueprints

  • Problem or error messages

Each documentation type has a unique ID. There are two documentation type attributes:

  • Project-specific documentation

    This documentation type is only valid in the project to which it is assigned.

  • Cross-project documentation

    This documentation type has the Global flag. It is available for all projects and appears automatically in the Project Documentation Types list on the Documentation Types tab.

You can create project documentation templates for each documentation type. Proceed as described in Editing Document Templates .

Tabstab

In the Tabs tab, you can specify the following for a project:

  • You can show ( Visible ) or hide ( Invisible ) tabs separately for the transactions Business Blueprint and Configuration .

  • You can activate ( Active ) or deactivate ( Inactive ) tab change history recording for the transactions Business Blueprint and Configuration together.

    You can display the change history in the tab, with the History pushbutton.

Dependencies between theComponent ViewandBPMN Graphictabs

The system can only display one of the two tabs at a time. If one of the two tabs is visible, and you show the other, the system tells you that the previous tab will be hidden.

The information in the BPMN Graphic (BPMN: Business Process Modeling Notation) tab is display only. To copy the data from the BPMN Graphic within projects, you need the project role and authorization /SOCO/FABRIC_USER.
