Business Process Engineering Assignment: Implementing a Business Workflow in SAP
Prepare a plan and implement a workflow in SAP for the following process:
During a production run, a piece of equipment is found to be working but showing signs of significant wear. The Floor Supervisor needs to advise the Plant Maintenance Manager of the faulty piece of equipment. The Plant Maintenance Manager then inspects the equipment and determines which of two actions to take: Replace the equipment or Maintain the equipment. If the equipment is to be replaced, the Production Manager is advised. The Production Manager then places an order for the replacement equipment. If the equipment just requires maintenance or repair, a service order is raised by the Plant Maintenance Manager.
The assignment submission consists of three parts.
1) Evidence that each group member has completed the SAP tutorial exercises.
2) A written submission, submitted in pdf format via blackboard, that includes:
• The Student Names, Numbers, SAP username and password of all group members. (The SAP usernames are required by the lecturer to test the implementation of your solution);
• A description using the concepts from assignment 3 of your implementation plan: an organisational structure, a list of tasks and their actors, and an SAP workflow diagram to describe the process logic;
• The name and abbreviation of the implemented Organisational Plan (must be in the form BXXXA3OP where XXX is the SAP user account);
• The workflow identifier assigned by the SAP system (WS90000NNN) and name (BXXXAssn3WF where XXX is the SAP user account) of the Workflow prepared for the case study;
• For each student in the group, the workflow identifier of the workflow created for the tutorial exercises;
• The Assessment Declaration sheet.
3) Your solution implemented in SAP.
• To avoid interfering with other students work, all objects created for the workflow must include the numeric part of the SAP username that you used for development. It is also useful to include this number in the description of any objects created as this assists in finding the objects when searching.
• An organisational plan
• The implemented workflow.
