■ Introduction Real-Time Three-Tier Architecture SAP supports a real-time three-tier (R/3) architecture made up of these three layers: xxvi • Presentation Layer: This is the first layer in a typical three-tier architecture and it serves as the input device that controls the SAP system. It is user-friendly Graphical User Interface (GUI) that’s used by the end-user to input data into the system. It also serves as a data-output device. The presentation layer communicates with the application layer. • Application Layer: This layer serves as the middleman in a SAP system. It’s where the all processing is done. The application layer can be referred to as the central processing unit (CPU). It collects data from the database, processes it, and passes it to the presentation layer. • Database: Allows the data to be stored, called up, and modified. The real-time three-tier architecture allows separate business processes to function under a single, integrated business management information system. Customizable Solution SAP ERP 6.0 is scalable and suited for medium and large organizations, since it provides a customizable solution using the structured programming language, ABAP/4. This flexibility allows companies to customize the system to meet their specific needs. In order to enable customers and partners to customize the SAP application to meet their specific-business requirements, SAP comes with the Easy Access menu and the Implementation Guide (IMG) menus. Easy Access The Easy Access menu is a user-specific point of entry into the SAP system. It is the first screen that comes up when you logon to SAP. It is designed in a tree structure containing a list several key items that provide the options that allow you to navigate the system and perform tasks and business processes. For example, you can perform transactions and generate reports and access web addresses (where you can access documents from a remote internet server). IMG (Implementation Guide) The IMG is a generic tool that you can use to customize business processes and requirements to meet specific needs of a company. You are presented with three implementation variants in SAP: • SAP Reference IMG. This is a standard structured hierarchical tool in R/3 system (real-time three-tier architecture) that contains the procedures for customizing various country settings and application modules in the SAP system. • Project IMG. Configuration process can be very daunting. To help manage the complexity involved when using the reference IMG, you can create each implementation project based on specific functions needed for business processes and requirements. For example, you could use it to reduce the project scope to specific objects such as countries. • Project View IMG. You choose certain properties by specific criteria in order to generate views to organize your project activities. For example, a project view could hold each activity required in a project IMG.
Matchcode ■ Introduction Matchcode is a user-friendly search function designed to help you lookup or retrieve data records stored in the system. It’s an efficient way of looking for records stored in the system when you do not remember their keys. Supports Other Operating Systems SAPERP 6.0 EHP7 is very versatile and supports various operating systems, such as: • Microsoft Windows 2000 professional, Microsoft XP professional, and Microsoft Server 2003 • HP UX 11.11 and HP UX 11.23 • Novell SUSE SLES9 • Sun Solaris 9 and Sun Solaris 1 • IBM AIX 5.2 and IBM AIX 5.3 Unified Platform SAP provides the platform where all business processes are executed in a single system and share common information. Incorporating Multiple Languages and Currencies SAP ERP is ideal for multinational organizations because of the flexibility incorporated, which allows the system to run on multiple currencies and use different languages. These features make SAP a global software solution. Integrated ERP Solutions SAPERP is an integrated ERP package that incorporates other modules. These include Financial (FI), Controlling (CO), Material Management (MM), Sales and Distribution (SD), Production Planning (PP), Human Resources (HR), Financial Supply Chain Management (FSCM), Customer Relationship Management (CRM), and others. Reduced Implementation Cost The cost and time needed to implement SAP can be reduced by applying rapid-implementation techniques using global and industry-specific templates during customization. Global Presence As the market leader in ERP, the SAPERP solution is currently used in over 28 industry sectors and has a strong global presence in more than 120 countries worldwide. This number is predicted to rise. xxvii
