SAP runs on a client/server
architecture. It uses PC servers
running Windows NT or Unix and it
uses Microsoft SQL, Oracle, DB2 or
Informix.

Example:
Sale of product leads to a need to re-
supply a material based on the
production planning for the product
and material requirements planning
(MRP) for that material.
The MRP run initiates the creation
of a requsition which requests the
specified material from desired
vendor.
The requisition is converted to
purchase order.
Once goods are received in the
warehouse, they are goods receipted
and utilized in the creation of the
necessary product based current
production and planned orders.
This product is then ready for
delivered into inventory and ready
for sale.

The process moves from SD to PP to
MM to PP to SD.

The data within R/3 can be divided into
three different types

Master
These records are used to define the
characteristics of a specific master
data elements such as Vendors,
Customers and Materials.
Document
A document in SAPspeak refers to
logical collection of data, and NOT
to a physical printed document
(e.g. a sales order, or picking sheet).
It is important that the difference is
remembered!
Document data represents the on-
line transaction data as it passes
through the business cycle or
business process flow. Sales orders,
goods movements all give rise to
document creation.
Table
All data in the system is stored in
Tables. However there are many
base or configuration tables that
need to be populated, and which
control base parameters such as
languages, currencies, units of
measure etc.

Organizational Unit: Organizational
grouping of enterprise areas which,
for legal reasons or for other specific
business-related reasons or purposes,
are grouped together in an enterprise
for legal reasons. Organizational
units include legal companys
entities, sales offices, and profit
centers.

An enterprise structure is mapped to
SAP applications using
organizational units. Organizational
units handle specific business
functions.

Organizational units may be
assigned to a single application
(such as a sales organization
assigned to Sales and Distribution,
or to several applications (such as a
plant assigned to Materials
Management and Production
Planning).

The enterprise structure is organized
hierarchically in the SAP R/3
System. The client is at the highest
level and may cover several
company codes.

Several plants may be assigned to
one company code and several
warehouses may be assigned to one
plant.

Three types of data fields exist within SAP:
Required: Required fields are usually denoted by a . Some required fields are
blank but if you try to proceed to another screen you will get an error message
requesting you to complete the required fields.
Default: Default information is provided automatically by the system. The

Required Default

4/8/2005 46
System Messages
There are 4 types of typical system messages:
Error This message is displayed when a user enters
incorrect data in a field or fails to enter data in a required field.
You cannot continue working until you correct the situation.
Warning This message is displayed if the system
configuration determines there is a problem with the business
logic. An example would be when a dollar or percentage
tolerance is exceeded. You can ignore a warning message and
continue working but you should review the message and only
continue with a transaction based on the message associated
with the warning.
Information This is the most common type of
system message. For example, you get an information message
every time you post a transaction and the system returns the
document number. In many cases information messages
should be recorded for future reference.
Abnormal Error Also know as an ABAP Dump. This
type of message happens when a program fails. It is a possible
sign of a programming error. Sometimes this type of error
signifies a lack of memory or other resources, not necessarily
an error in the program code. If the message is related to a
program error, not a runtime error, you should report it to the
system administrator.

4/8/2005 47
Informational message - Access Denied
If you do not have access to a transaction and receive the following message, follow the
steps below:

1. Enter /nSU53 in your Command field .
2. Call the Helpdesk at 847-937-3956.
3. This screen print (as shown below) will let the Helpdesk know what objects
you are missing from your profile. Reference this when contacting the Help
desk to request an update to your security profile.

CoE On-Line Help

CoE On-Line Help is provided by the CoE Learning Solutions Team and always contains
the most current information on how to complete a transaction. The CoE On-Line Help
contains screen shots, field name definitions and any pertinent notes or hints pertaining to
the execution of the transaction. The On-Line Help also contains a glossary of SAP field
names and terms.

The CoE On-Line Help is context sensitive. Therefore, when you access Help within a
transaction in SAP, assistance for that specific transaction will initially display.

You can access the help two ways.

1. On the intranet at :
\\ABTAPASP01\InfoPak\InfoPak\nav\index.htm

2. The menu path: Help AES Revised Help.

When logging onto Help for the first time, you will be asked to select a Help Server. You
should only get this once for each client.

1. Click to select the appropriate Help Server.
Select Help Server: COE HELP - ABC
2. Click .

Once you select the Help Server Name, the context sensitive help will display on the right
side of the screen on top of the active session of SAP.
