SAP Best Practices is based on the
SAP Enhancement Package 4
Installation of New Functionality Separated From Activation via Switch Framework
Preamble
Optional
SAP enhancement packages are shipped as a delta shipment to SAP ERP 6.0
Selective Installation


Enhancement
Packages

Each SAP Enhancement Package contains
new versions of existing software components
You only update software components, which
are related to the functionality you want to use.
After installation:


Selective update - Example
No UI or process change until a business function is activated
No implications on the underlying NetWeaver platform, however SAP Enhancement
Packages require defined ERP support package stack
Selective Activation

Support
Packages

New functionality must be explicitly
switched on to become active in the system.
If activated:


Mandatory


Changes are predictable, only well described changes in the activated areas.
Testing is simplified with templates, provided for every business function
Usage of Updated NWBC

New design

Higher performance

4-layered user navigation
Already available

The updated SAP NWBC 3.0 is available
on the SAP Service Marketplace for SAP
Partners & Customers

New Scenarios
SAP Best Practices for Semiconductor and Photovoltaic Companies
V1.604 (US) provides the following new industry-specific
scenarios:

458: Sales Processing with Variant Pricing Configuration

459: Material Substitution in MRP using Discontinued Part Control

460: Solar Cell Retesting

462: Actual Costing with Material Ledger
Sales Processing with Variant Pricing
Configuration (458)
Purpose and Benefits:
Purpose

This scenario is designed for foundry automatic pricing procedure. We assume
that the semiconductor foundry delivery finished wafer to fable companies
directly, not die-base.
Benefits

The quotation price is determined on the basis of the manufacturing costs of the
quoted product via variant conditions
Key process flows covered









Creation of the quotation
Deriving Sales Order from Quotation
Material Requirements Planning for MTO Sales Order
Converting Planned Order to Production Order
Evaluation of the Stock/Requirement List
Manufacturing Steps (Make-to-Order)
Creating Outbound Delivery
Picking and Goods Issue
Creating Billing Document
Material Substitution in MRP using Discontinued
Part Control (459)
Purpose and Benefits:
Purpose

This scenario describes the process of the raw material substitution functionality
in MRP for the photovoltaic industry.
Benefits



Developed new material to replace the old one to finally improve the product.
Assuming material A and B are mutual substitutions, production planner manually
decided which raw material is used during production. An alternative item group is
used to group together alternative items in a BOM.
Assuming discontinued material C has been replaced by material D after the
specific period. Used discontinuation functionality is transfer dependent
requirements of a component to the follow-up materials, if the requirements are
no longer covered by stock.
Key process flows covered






Create Planned Independent Requirements
Change the BOM to decide which raw material is used during production
Change the Material Master to automatic substitution for discontinued material
Material Requirements Planning at Plant Level
Evaluation of the Stock/Requirement List
Create Production Order
Solar Cell Retesting (460)
Purpose and Benefits:
Purpose

After solar cell have been produced and stored in the warehouse for a period of time, there is a possibility that the
conversion efficiency of some solar cells will change for some unstable reason. So before using solar cells to
assemble to solar module in plant or sell these solar cells to customer directly, the solar cells should be re-tested
and sorted again according to their new conversion efficiency. This scenario describes the solar cell retesting
process.
Benefits


For solar cells which are Efficiency, you have 3 options:
 Option 1: No Attribute Change for Retested Solar Cells
 Option 2: Attribute Change For All Retested Solar Cells
 Option 3: Attribute Change For Partial Retested Solar Cells
For solar cells which are No-Efficiency
 Defects Recording
 Usage Decision to Scrap No-efficiency Solar Cells
Key process flows covered



Create Stock Transfer Request
Quality Inspection
Recording Results

Goods are Efficiency
• Option 1: No Attribute Change for Retested Solar Cells
• Option 2: Attribute Change For All Retested Solar Cells
• Option 3: Attribute Change For Partial Retested Solar Cells
• Maintain Batch Master Record

Goods are No-Efficiency
• Defects Recording
• Usage Decision to Scrap No-efficiency Solar Cells
Actual Costing with Material Ledger (462)
Purpose and Benefits:
Purpose

This scenario describes the process of calculating the actual cost of materials
and separating the differences between standard cost and actual cost into cost
of sales and stock value using material ledger settlement function.
Benefits

System calculates the actual cost of materials with material ledger :
Key process flows covered






Creating Costing Run
Determining Material Prices
Consumption Revaluation
Closing Postings
Confirming Costing Result
Marking Material Price
Enhanced Scenarios
For SAP Best Practices for Semiconductor and Photovoltaic
Companies V1.604, the following scenarios have been
enhanced with new features:

450: Manufacturing with Production Order Split and Batch Derivation



451: Subcontracting Manufacturing with Down Binning and Batch
Derivation



Enhanced with Subcontracting Monitor
Enhanced with in Transit tracking for Components
452: Production Subcontracting with Co-Products and Batch Derivation


New Enablement Kit for SAP NetWeaver Business
Client

New Enablement Kit for SAP NetWeaver Business Client –
V1.30: The versioning is conform with the standard SAP
Best Practices versioning: V1.30 refers to the fact that this
is the first version of the Enablement Kit for SAP NWBC
3.0.

The enablement kit consists of:

Instructions for using POWER Lists, Reports and
Roles

Development instructions for POWER Lists

Overview of existing POWER Lists and Reports

Guided Procedure for a quick and rapid prototyping
(see Guided Tour in the menu)
Tool and Activitation Related Enhancements


Reduced activation time
Extended personalization ability (material
descriptions) in the Solution Builder
SAP Best Practices Solution Builder:
Enhanced Graphical Scoping
Enhanced Graphical Scoping

Design as known from the Solution Configurator for SAP Business All-in-One

Enhanced application area editor
 The scenarios of a
solution are sized
dynamically and ordered
into a solution map-like
view
 The application areas are
defined in the application
area editor.
