1. Objective and Scope

1.1. Objective of this Operation

Once the SBS IS Projects are approved by all concerned parts, it is needed to create the project structure.


1.2. Scope

The scope of the WBS Elements creation for SBS IS Projects is to all legal entities in Solvay Group WW.


2. Definitions

Definitions should be added in the Finance Glossary - Add definition and link it to respective Letter in Finance Glossary 

See Finance Glossary:


3. Open a SBS IS Project Description

All SBS IS Projects need to be approved by all the concerned parts (Responsible Financial Controller and Responsible SBS Manager).

The PPMO committee:
- Defines the Business Case (Project Approval Form) with the project presentation (scope, zone, …)
- Estimates the budget needed for the projects
- Makes a global evaluation of the projects and vote
- Suggests the projects to be developed to get the CIO’s approval


Project Approval Form are approved in AODOCs in Document PPMO.

There are two possibilities when assigning the costs of WBS Element

                1. Capex (Investment) - are all expenses related to a project and that the company can amortize in several fiscal years.

Tangible: A Tangible asset is something that you can touch such as equipment or hardware.

Intangible: An Intangible asset is a something that you cannot touch such as software of services

2. OTC (One time cost/Overhead/Opex) - An OTC linked to a project, is an expense which is not expected to reoccur.

3.1. I receive new WBS Element Requests from the IS Controllers

3.1.1. IS Controllers insert new WBS Element Request

After the approval of the project, the IS Controllers insert a new WBS Element Request in WBS Element Request file with the following information:

  • Project Code
  • Cost Center
  • Company Code
  • Site/Plant
  • Budget
  • Responsible Position
  • Network needed or not


3.2. I insert project code in Project List

Everyday the MAC Analyst goes to the WBS Element Request file to verify if there is any new request from the IS Controllers.

When there is a new request, it is needed to parameterize the Project name in the tab Project List:

  • Access Accolade and search for the indicated code. For example IT9464, search for "9464" without the IT and click in the project name.



  • Once inside the project page, click in the right column on the field "Details". In this field it is possible to find the project description, Controlling Allocation, BU/Function and Requesting Team.

  • Copy the project name and paste in Description column the tab Project List on WBS Element Request file
  • Projects can be divided in three streams/teams: APPLI, INFRA and NON IS. In case of doubt when filling the team, always validate with the requestor.

3.3. I insert project code and parameters in SAP PF1/WP1

3.3.1. SAP PF1

  • Go to transaction Z1J_GROUP - Maintenance Project Group w/ text and click on .
  • Fill the table with the project group code, description and currency (always EUR). It's not needed to insert the budget.


  • Save the record clicking 

3.3.2. SAP WP1

    • Go to transaction ZWPST004 - Customer Enterprise PS Definition and click on .
    • Fill the table with the project group code, description, currency, team, customer 1 and customer 2.


Note! Where do I get the customer 1 and customer 2? I need follow the procedure in 3.2 point:

  • Costumer 1 corresponds to Controlling Allocation field. 
    Exception: When the controlling allocation matches SBS, the Costumer 1 will be SBS Projects
  • Costumer 2 correlate to BU/Function.
    Exception: When the controlling allocation matches SBS, the Costumer 2 must be the Requesting Team.

Important!

  • If Costumer 1 is a GBU, the Costumer 2 cannot be a Function or a Service Line.
  • If Costumer 1 is a Function, the Costumer 2 cannot be a GBU or a Service Line.
  • If Costumer 1 is SBS Projects, the Costumer 2 can only be a Service Line.
  • If Costumer 1 is SW/HW EQUIPMENT, the Costumer 2 must be HW/SW Investments (incl Video).
  • If Costumer 1 is MAGD, the Costumer 2 may be GBU or Function.
  • This way, I will be able to start the creation of the WBS Structure.

3.4. I verify the fields of the request (Company code, plant, cost center)


It is very important to understand and verify the fields of the request before trigger the creation.

  • EMEA
    • All OTC projects are created by Lisbon team.
    • Capex - there are some exceptions. It is needed to consult the Contacts for WBS creation & Useful address list in the tabs For IS in WP1 and For IS in PF1 to understand who is responsible for the creation. It is also useful to refer to the past WBS Elements created to understand who as created it.
  • APAC and LAM

    All the requests, OTC and Capex are created by local team. I need to click on the link in column AY "Open ticket?", and an automatic e-mail will be filled with the requesting fields to be sent to freshdesk.

    Example:


  • NAM

    For SAP PF1 System: 
  • All OTC projects are created by Lisbon team.
  • Capex - there are some exceptions. It is needed to consult the Contacts for WBS creation & Useful address list in the tabs For IS in WP1 and For IS in PF1 to understand who is responsible for the creation. It is also useful to refer to the past WBS Elements created to understand who as created it.


   For SAP WP1 System: 

All the requests, OTC and Capex are created by local team. I need to click on the link in column AY "Open ticket?", and an automatic e-mail will be filled with the requesting fields to be sent to freshdesk.

Example:


3.5. I create WBS Elements as requested

3.5.1. SAP PF1

3.5.1.1. How to codify the project definition and WBS Element


  1. Capex (Investment)
  • Project definition example NHA/IYYXXX

YY Year. If 2020 - should be 20; if 2021 - should be 21... and so on.

XXX Sequential number


    1. WBS must have 4 levels
      Example: 

Level 1 NHA-IYYNNN
Level 2 NHA-IYYNNN.01
Level 3 NHA-IYYNNN.01.7

Level 4- NHA-IYYNNN.01.7.LL.WWW.Z


        • LL corresponds to the material code:


              • 70 for tangible assets

              • 79 for intangible assets

        • WWW identifies the Stream:


          1. ISA for Application
          2. ISI for Infrastructure
          3. NIS for Non IS
        • Z is to define if Capex Intangible or Tangible


          1. M for Tangible Capex
          2. L for Intangible Capex

  1. OTC (Overhead)
    • Project definition example: NHA.PX KKK

KKK – Sequential number

        • WBS example: NHA.PXKKK.WWWO

    • WWW identifies the Stream:
            1. ISA for Application
            2. ISI for Infrastructure
            3. NIS for Non IS
          • O is for OTC


3.5.1.2. Create project definition


  • Enter transaction CJ20N


Select Project → New → Project



  • Insert Project code

First of all, look in SAP (via the transaction CN43N or CJ20N) which was the last project Definition created for the plant of the company.

For example: for plant NHA = company 0001 SOLVAY (SCH):

    1. Enter the 3 first positions (NHA)

    2. After the code plant insert “I2” (always for the WBS Capex for IS)

    3. 0 = the year (for 2020 – I20; for 2021 – I21; for 2022 – I22)

    4. Followed by the 3 sequential numbers.


  • Enter the project name

For example: Project IT10362 2.NETWORK & DEVICES (NA), insert a "-" between the ITxxxx and the name

Selecting these 2 profiles, it will allow you to indicate the amount budgeted by WBS elements (on OTC and on CAPEX) via the transaction CJ30 after that the WBS will be created.


  • In the field Investment profile select the profile according to the Country code and nature of the project (Tangible or Intangible)

          For BE- ZBE000 (Tangible) – ZBE001 (Intangible)
