EHS stands for Environment, Health and Safety. The Goal of EHS is to protect employees, the public, the environment and to comply with applicable laws and protect the Company's reputation. EHS departments, of some companies are responsible for environmental protection, occupational health and safety.
This application described below concerns one of EHS goals : Reporting for Substance Volume Tracking (SVT)
In many countries, regulations state that, above a certain quantity of chemicals and other hazardous substances, you must register with the authorities the maximum quantities of these substances that you plan to purchase, import, produce, sell, or export within a certain period. Substance volume tracking helps you to comply with the relevant regulations by recording the quantities of substances needing to be tracked that you purchase, import, produce, sell, or export. By comparing the recorded quantities with the limit values, the system can warn you in good time before a limit value is exceeded
Tool Leader + IT leader of the application: Name of project or main leader for the application + reporting coodinator
Around 90 users, worldwide. Each country can only report on its data.

As the roles where not ready it has been decided not to load Buta data in REACH cube (SVT Analysis - EU (Rhodia) / CREHS06) => the company code ZFR9 is filtered in both DTP.

Usefull to know :
1- Menu Roles ZR_RCS_CA_M40 “EHS – Substance Volume Tracking Asia” and ZR_RCS_CA_M36 “EHS – Substance Volume Tracking North America” are now obsolete.
There are replaced by ZR_RCS_CA_M48.
2- Perimeter roles ZBI_RCS_EHS_P06 to ZBI_RCS_EHS_P12 are obsolete because Authorization Team has decided to use naming ZBI_xx_EHS_P06 (xx = country)
3- Perimeter roles ZR_RCS_EHS_P06 to P09 and P11, P13 to P15 are obsolete because old naming.
Usefull to know concerning BUTA Chimie (Company Code ZFR9) :
A filter on C_PLANT from authorization has been added in all SVT queries :
variable V_AUT_C_PLANT_0001 for EU report as the Plant is a selection criteria
variable V_C_PLANT_0001 for all other as the Plant is not a selection citeria
The C_PLANT will have to be removed in object ZBI_SVT (Application Role ZR_RCS_EHS_A07)
Following perimeter role will have to be managed for all EHS SVT users :
For all plants, except BUTA, use perimeter role ZR_TOUT_CA_P02 / object ZTOUTCAP02
The BUTA data will have to be loaded in cube REACH (SVT Analysis - EU (Rhodia) / CREHS06).
Usefull current authorization matrix

The dataflow is in the following document : EHS-SVT-Documentation https://drive.google.com/open?id=1W-NDge82ePPYy4fBiMhr57DVYeBxzRsuyPxjK1ZWQuM

Exemple of dataflow overview :
Template Application name DataFlow
The Unit conversion is done in the Bex queries (Quantity Conversion Type), depending on reports
Transactionnal data are stored in material base unit, except of SPRINT Reception quantities (PO Unit)
if base unit / po unit is managed in dimension MASS, conversion within table T006 works well
if base unit / po unit is not managed in dimension MASS, conversions for KG/LB/TO have to be managed on ERP side (MM03 / Alternative Conversion).
Example : production done on unit KRE; other used units 1KG, M2, M3, KN3...
There are many "special" units on Solvay ERP.
Important :
Quantities are not converted when loading data, and are not store into cubes (The conversion is done when running the report)
So, if a conversion is missing for a material ask the material referent to
1- manage the conversion on ERP Side by managed the material master (MM03) / unit of measure tab
2- the day after, when the DSO UOMCMAT2 is filled, the conversion is applied in the reports. It applies to whole data without any reloading.
Following variables are used in the Bex Queries used to extract data for SVT and also in DTP for weekly loading.

Bex queries have been created to extract data from existing BW applications. Theses queries are dedicated to EHS, and all requested filters are done in the queries (intervalle of month, list of plant, material type limitation...). Queries are slightly different from RCS or Solvay.
Also Japan is always by its own has the corresponding year is from April Y to Mars Y+1
The interval of time is get from the global filter C_GLBFILT (stream EHS / rule DATA*)
For purchasing data :
Rhodia | BW_QRY_MV_SPD01_0010 | SPRINT - Rhodia Purchase Other Data For EHS | 13/11 Exclusion PO Doc Type UB |
Rhodia | BW_QRY_MV_SPD01_0012 | SPRINT - Rhodia Purchase Japan Data For EHS | 13/11 Exclusion PO Doc Type UB |

Technical rule to avoid loading to many usage in MasterData C_USAGEJP

-> New usages are created into MasterData C_USAGEJP when these DSO are filled
Example : CUST-RH01.99000027
-> Attributs and Texts are only loaded if the usage exists in the Masterdata
Caution :
the text transfo + DTP was created in WBP directly in 01.2014
the C_USAGEJP Attr is loaded with masterdata but it need to be loaded after DSO (=> better to change PCH, attributs are loading the following week)
the C_USAGEJP Text is not automatic (=> better to be added in PCH)
Steps for to reload historical for a year :
delete values for year to reload in DSOs manualy. Do not use the Abap program which is based on others Global Filters variables
change Global Filter C_GLBFILT with year to reload
load DSOs
change Global Filter C_GLBFILT to set historical load inactive

Step1 = search in EHSA with Reg/Substance (one access only)
-> flow year have to be into validity interval
-> store k_rellim into k_limqty (with unit / conversion possible) + u_limit into u_limit
-> store c_subsec into c_subsec
Set 2= search in EHSW with Reg/Substance
For all record with same Reg/Substance/Company Code
-> flow year have to be into validity interval
-> if 1st record store cregleve into c_thrhld
-> if 2nd or more and if cregleve > than previous cregleve, store new cregleve into c_thrhld
If c_thrhld is not initial and c_thrhld exist in masterdata :
-> store master data k_uppqty to k_limqty + u_limit into u_limit
Step 2 possible pour North America ?
Search in EHSW with Reg/Substance/Company Code
For all record with same Reg/Substance/Company Code
-> flow year have to be into validity interval
-> if 1st record store cregleve into c_thrhld
-> if 2nd or more and if cregleve > than previous cregleve, store new cregleve into c_thrhld
If c_thrhld is not initial and c_thrhld exist in masterdata :
-> store master data k_uppqty to k_limqty + u_limit into u_limit
-> Case regulatory ZCN_NEW_CH' or 'ZJP_ISHL' or 'ZJP_CSCL'
search in EHSA with Reg/Substance (one access only)Search in EHSW with Reg/Substance
=> For REACH + KOREA + NA (but real case?)
=> for Canada, REACH,
=> for ASIA and TR
Attributs were loaded from a flat file (by Jonathan in mai 2014)
Text were filled manually for Asia, and Reach.

The application is done weekly on saturdays at 11am
if possible, give some information on average process chain duration, amount of data loaded and total data volume example: daily process chain loaded in 30 min, weekly chain loaded in 1h15, with around 2k to 10k lines in DELTA mode for a total of 10M lines in cube. The purpose is to give a general overview of the volume of data managed y the application
| Key Figure | Estimation |
|---|---|
| ~ Average Process Chain Runtime | 7 hours as currently 2 years are extracted |
| ~ Average nb of rows loaded per load | |
| ~ Total nb of rows loaded (if full) | |
| ~ Average Runtime for 10k lines |
Give details if any historisation is done, example: keep only data greater than beginning of Y-3
Query end user documentation should be created in the public "Customer Support Wiki" space under the corresponding BW application page : BW - Application. Technical query query documentation, if necessary should be added as a sub-page of this documentation using the BW Technical Query Documentation template.
For EHS SVT, queries have been developped, but for each query, an analysis workbook has been settled => only one access mode.
All queries/workbooks are published in an unique role menu “EHS – Substance Volume Tracking” (ZR_RCS_CA_M48)

NB : Following queries are not yet available as workbook (not part of convergence project), a freshdesk has to be created by the Business Team.
All reports have following common filtrers
Country of Origin (C_CNTRY_O) = autorisation
Tracking Flag (C_TRCKFLG) = 'Y'
Component Type Exclusion (C_IMPFLG) = 'N'
Material Exclusion Flag (C_EXCLUSI) = 'N'
Chemical reaction <> 0 'NO'
