General presentation

Objective of the application

Describe in a few words the content of application + link with functional or technical specifications (google links) done with during the project or linked with PPMO

 Name of project or main leader for the application + reporting coodinator

SPRINT stands for Solvay Purchasing Reporting INTelligence

SPRINT is a project launched early 2014, with the main purpose to build and deliver a reporting application to cover both the Purchasing and the PtP reporting needs.

It is hosted in WBP server, collecting information from PF1-050 (PRS), PF1-020 (Solvay legacy ERP), WP1-400 (Rhodia legacy ERP) and RHO-020 (Acetow ERP).

SPRINT application is available for the two “family” of users

each one having a dedicated Menu in WBP with the respective queries.


The Sprint reporting is also including queries based on following projects :


Tool Leader + IT leader of the application:

Contact on ECC side for MM => Henri OLLIVIER

Usage information

How many users? Which user category ? Is there critical period ? Which geographical perimeter? Describe in one sentence: around 50 users, worldwide or 200 users / European Site

History

Provide some history of the application : When was it created ? What was the initial project ? Who was the original requestor ? If possible provide link to the project information

SPRINT is a project launched early 2014. The roadmap of the project has been sliding in time and at the current date (January 2016) the Purchasing solution has been live for 9 months (first deployment made in March 2015 for APAC users, second deployment made in April 2015 for NAM users, third deployment between May and June 2015 for EMEA users and forth deployment in June 2015 for LAM users); the SBS PtP solution is partially deployed since June 2015.

One of the major objectives of the project is to have and maintain a reporting solution that is kept simple, meaning, that unlike what happened with GSV (where more than 80 queries exist due to multiple copies made for each user request), the aim for SPRINT is to keep the number of queries limited.

Masterdata RULE1 on Vendors (C_VENDID) / Class attribut (C_VENCLS)

This rule concerns only Solvay vendors (from PF1) P*, which are employees not existing in PRS.

These vendors are partly created in Solvay PF1 and it is then not possible to set Class = 'X' in Solvay PF1.

For those vendors, the class has to be set to 'X' in BW.

The intervall of vendor is managed in Global Filter (C_GLBFILT). Currently P000000000 to PZZZZZZZZZ

Masterdata RULE2 on Realigned Material Group (C_MATPUR2) 

All realigned material group are existing on Solvay, descriptions are then filled from PF1 only. Only english description are required.

Masterdata RULE3 on Terms of Payment (C_PMNTTRM) 

Terms of Payment on SAP side are managed into 2 tables. TVZBT for sales (customers), T052U for purchasing (vendor). 

Payment terms can be common. On BW there is only one object for Payment Terms. T052U has to be loaded first. The description of common terms will be then TVZBT's one.

Note that keys are differents, no matters, the last description is kept.

WBS determination reading Settlement Rules 

This rule concerns only RCS & Solvay FIAP data (transformation between DBFIAP01/2 et DB_FIAP1/2). Acetow is not concerned.

The Settlement rules (table COBRB) are loaded every days by another application (RCS : Dso DSRCOBRB / Solvay : Dso DSSCOBRB).

Reuse of rule between ODS_PMEN to DBFICS02. 


Case WBS element is already determined for the FIAP record => keep it, no further determination.

Case WBS element is empty and CO order is filled => read settlement rules

         First check is a previous determination has been done (lookup on Dso)

=> If yes, take the WBS element stored

=> if no, read settlement rules

The check is done to avoid dupplicates as the WBS element is part of the key, and settlment rules can be changed even for the past.

NB: the check can be skip for performance purpose essentielly (case of an initialization for example) => Flag in Global Filter SPRINT/DB_FIAP1 or DB_FIAP2/ put Y in low value and Y. Do not forget to put it back to N afterwards.

Important : The Material Group in schedule line and FIAP Dsos & Cubes is partly false.

Currently Core & QV queries is using C_MAT_GRP from FIAP or Schedule lines. It has to be changed with C_PO_ITM attribut when Business validates it.

StreamRuleExplanation
SPRINT

DB_FIAP1

DB_FIAP2

Variable used in transformation (start routine) between DBFIAP01/2 => DB_FIAP1/2.

 Aim : skip the DSO DB_FIAP1/2 lookup.

In case of a reloading of FIAP, this look-up in not usefull. To optimize loading time, set the filter to Y. Do not forget to put it back to N afterwards.

SPRINTSEGMENTAT

Variable used in DTP filter to define the number of year to consider for segmentation redetermination

DSOs : DB_FIAP1/2/3 + DB_PUHD1/2/3 + DB_PUSL1/2/3
SPRINTCLASS_X

Variable used in transformation to load Vendor number from DataSource 0VENDOR_ATTR / Solvay

currently : interval P000000000 and PZZZZZZZZZ

SPRINT

ACETOW

RHODIA

SOLVAY

PRS

Theses variables are used in Process Chains. After the loading of the attributes of the master data, there is a decision (one by source system) to launch or not the loading of the transactionnal data


FIAP Reloading

FIAP for SPRINT Dsos (CR_PUAP1/2/3), and Cubes (CR_PUAP1/2/3) have been reloaded several times since project golive.

At least is requested : current exercice + 3 previous ones.

Example 2016 => 2016 + 2013 to 2015

 

See ModOp SPRINT reloadings https://drive.google.com/open?id=1qSUGEl6v1Iftdc9N1CP7ytFxW2ew2lGO0eEmy4Gvwk0

 

It is important to check image Before/After. Only opened periods could be differents.

FIGL Reloading

Caution, take into account special periods 013 to 016, overwise December figures will be wrong.

Special periods 013 to 016 are at last stored on period 012.

ReadSoft Reloading

 

See ModOp SPRINT reloadings https://drive.google.com/open?id=1qSUGEl6v1Iftdc9N1CP7ytFxW2ew2lGO0eEmy4Gvwk0

For information, at the reloading of readsoft there have been issue during activation of data in DSO DB_RDSF1 & DB_RDSF2.

Somes rows had currency = USA, chinese character in field wc user and "!" in the beginning of field Reference document number.

So there is an exclusion in DTPs when currency = USA and routines to clear stranges characters for wc user and reference document number.
