Production Malfunction Visibility Process Scenario

The production malfunction visibility process covers

machine breakdowns within the production process

_________________________________
_________________________________
_________________________________

Fills the gap that exists between planning and execution

systems

_________________________________

The production malfunction visibility process (scenario)

demonstrates the following functions:

_________________________________

Triggering follow-up activities

Monitoring and controlling the production process, including
possible disruptions caused by machine breakdowns
(production supervisor)
Establishing a close link between execution and planning by
creating alerts if problems arise (production planner)
Analyzing the business processes in SAP NetWeaver BI

Scenario Components

Since the production malfunction visibility process aims

to bring together information from different areas, it
consists of two independent paths:

_________________________________
_________________________________
_________________________________

Manufacturing Order Handling (Event Handler)

Malfunction Notification Handling (Event Handler)

_________________________________
_________________________________

All events are reported from SAP ERP (ECC)

f The

process only works if the material produced is

configured for automatic goods receipt and goods
receipt must be allowed for the manufacturing order
f The alert is sent to the first (main) capacity of the
manufacturing order operation
f In the case of the manufacture of co-products, only the
main material is displayed in the Web interface

_________________________________
_________________________________
_________________________________
_________________________________
_________________________________
5

Scenario Events Follow-Up Activities

_________________________________

The rule set is triggered when

an event message arrives
This in turn triggers follow-up
activities
When actual events are
reported, the status value
changes correspondingly
If a machine breakdown
occurs, the relevant
production planner is
informed by a Production
Planning (PP) alert

Scenario Status Roles for Status Retrieval

_________________________________

Customers and partners can access the information

using the Internet (Web interface)
Internal employees can find information in the Event
Handler List in SAP Event Management
Internal employees can also find event handler
information in the SAP ERP (ECC) production order
document itself

_________________________________
_________________________________

Step 1 (ECC) Activate SAP EM Application Interface

Access transaction BF11

_________________________________
_________________________________

You need to activate the plug-in to enable SAP Event

Management integration in SAP ERP (ECC)

_________________________________
_________________________________

Set the PI-EM indicator flag to active

_________________________________
If its not set to active, the BAdIs (Business Add Ins) and
BTEs (Business Transaction Events) are not called

_________________________________
_________________________________
_________________________________
_________________________________
_________________________________

the SAP EM system

_________________________________
_________________________________
_________________________________
_________________________________
_________________________________
_________________________________
_________________________________
_________________________________
11

Step 4 (ECC) Define the SAP EM System

_________________________________

Access transaction /SAPTRX/ASC0TS

The Event Manager entry is the reference entry that is used in

all SAP EM configuration. Based on this value, ECC knows
which logical system and RFC destination to use when
communicating with SAP EM.
Do not set the local flag when SAP EM is run standalone on
another server. Set it if it is running on the application system.
If you are running SAP EM on the same server as your
application, then youll also need to assign the logical
system to the client in Step 3

executed against the applicable event handler. These
activities are grouped into Rule Sets. (cont.)

Tip

Tip

_________________________________
_________________________________

Maintain the relevant rule conditions and activities as required

and save your entries
f It is recommended to efficiently code the use of your
activities with a rule set as they can become performance
hogs
Make use of the field False Rule or True Rule if you put
conditions in a rule set. This eliminates the need to run
through all the rules for each event received.
f Order your rules in popularity sequence
Put the most frequent event processing activities at
the top
f For performance reasons, apply conditions using
functions instead of the condition editor

Step 15 (SCM) Assign Mapping Area

_________________________________
_________________________________
_________________________________
_________________________________
_________________________________

_________________________________

7 Key Points to Take Home

_________________________________

Utilize as much of the standard visibility process as is

feasible
Plan for your reporting needs up front
Plan for your security/authorization needs up front
Design the relationships between Event Handlers and
Event Handler sets carefully
For performance reasons, consider implementing
function module relevance checks instead of the
delivered conditions
Rework the standard rule sets to more efficiently
process inbound messages
Stay with the standard Web reporting provided by SAP
EM WCL or Web Dynpro
