Create SAP documentation with assistance

Create documents to be transferred to SAP® Solution Manager 7.1 or 7.2 during SAP® synchronization.

Prerequisite

Procedure

  1. In ARIS Architect, click ARIS > Explorer Explorer.
  2. Open the function allocation diagram (FAD) assigned to an SAP function, and insert an object of the Information carrier type. Please use the relevant symbol types for General documentation, Project documentation, Test documentation, and Training documentation so that the documents are entered on the correct tabs after their transfer to SAP® Solution Manager.

    Using SAP Solution Manager 7.2, you can only use the Project documentation and the Test documentation symbols. ARIS can no longer determine whether the document is a project document or a training document. You can upload documents related with Project documentation and the Test documentation symbols to SAP Solution Manager 7.2. For best practice documents in ARIS, the General documentation symbol is used by default. You cannot upload Best practice documents using SAP synchronization because documents represented by the General documentation symbol are only updated in ARIS if modified in SAP Solution Manager but excluded from the upload.

    The Create SAP® documentation dialog opens.

  3. Specify the relevant settings and click OK.

The document is created. You can edit the settings until the document is transferred to SAP® Solution Manager. This document will be included when you start the SAP® synchronization and transfer documents. Using SAP Solution Manager 7.2, you can update transferred documents.

Documents that were created in ARIS and transferred to SAP Solution Manager® 7.2 can be deleted using the SAP® synchronization.
