SAP® Solution Manager offers all SAP® scenarios, including subordinate elements. You can define missing elements in ARIS and then add them to SAP® Solution Manager projects.
You can create SAP functions, executables, and documents with assistance once you have transferred the projects from SAP® Solution Manager. If necessary, enable the Open supporting dialog and check boxes on the SAP® options > Solution Manager options page.
If you run executables from SAP® Solution Manager, only executables that comply with the modeling conventions are included during SAP® synchronization.
You can create executables so that they can be started in SAP® Solution Manager. Therefore, you must place objects of the Screen type into models of type Function allocation diagram (FAD). The FAD must be assigned to the related SAP function. The Transaction code attribute can be specified by one code only. Entering multiple codes is not allowed. Therefore, an object of the Screen type must be created for each executable.
On the SAP® options > Solution Manager options page, you can enable the Open supporting dialog check box to specify that you want to be supported when creating new SAP functions, executables, and documents. This ensures that the data is automatically specified consistently when created and can be synchronized between ARIS and SAP® Solution Manager.
If you have enabled the check box, you can specify executables only via screens. The Executables dialog enables you to manage executables only if the call was started for an SAP function with an assigned function allocation diagram. If this is not the case, the specified functionality is not available. If the attribute is specified on other elements, the executable is ignored.
If you disable the check box, executables can still be specified on the Transaction code attribute of models and objects. These executables cannot be started in SAP® Solution Manager and are not included in the SAP® synchronization.
If you disable this check box, you are able to create the following elements manually. Manually created executables are not included in the synchronization if the consistency rules have been violated.
Scenarios
Procedure
Click ARIS > Explorer.
Right-click the group that contains the start model (project model), and select New > Object.
Select the object type Function. Only create objects of the Function type.
In the Symbol box, select the SAP function symbol.
In the Names box, enter the name of the function, for example, New scenario. If you click *, you can enter more names. The functions are then created simultaneously.
Click OK.
Right-click the object, select Attributes, and click the SAP Solutions attributes attribute type group.
In the SAP function type box, select Scenario.
Insert the scenario into the start model (project model) and save your change.
Processes
Procedure
Click ARIS > Explorer.
Right-click the group that contains the scenario EPC (scenario model), and select
New > Object.
Select the Function object type. Only create objects of the Function type.
In the Symbol box, select the SAP function symbol.
In the Names box, enter the name of the function, for example, New process. If you click *, you can enter more names. The functions are then created simultaneously.
Click OK.
Right-click the object, select Attributes, and click the SAP Solutions attributes attribute type group.
In the SAP function type box, select Process.
Insert the process into the scenario EPC (scenario model), and save your change.
Process step
Procedure
Click ARIS > Explorer.
Right-click the group that contains the process EPC (process model), and select New > Object.
Select the Function object type. Only create objects of the Function type.
In the Symbol box, select the SAP function symbol.
In the Names box, enter the name of the function, for example, New process step. If you click *, you can enter more names. The functions are then created simultaneously.
Click OK.
Right-click the object, select Attributes, and click the SAP Solutions attributes attribute type group.
In the SAP function type box, select Process step.
Insert the process step into the process EPC (process model) and save your change.
In the SAP Solutions attributes attribute type group, enter the process component as the SAP component attribute value and save your change.
Executables
Procedure
Click ARIS > Explorer.
Open the function allocation diagram (FAD) for the scenario, process, or process step.
Click the Screen symbol in the modeling toolbar.
Move the mouse pointer to the modeling area. Click the position where you want to place the symbol. The name is selected so that you can edit it.
Enter a name, for example, a description of the executable.
If you wish, draw a connection from the function to the screen object and save your changes.
In the SAP® Solutions tab bar, click Executable and select Executable. The dialog opens.
Click New.
Enter the code in the Transaction code box. This value is specified for the Tansaction code SAP Solutions attribute.
Enter a descriptive text in the Description box. This text is enclosed in brackets next to the code.
In the SAP Solutions attributes attribute type group, enter the process step component as the SAP component attribute value for the object.
Select the SAP® Server on which the executable is to be run. By default, the SAP® Server specified in the SAP® Server system attribute is displayed for the selected object. If this attribute has not been specified, the entry SAP® default server is displayed. This is the server that was selected as the default server in the Options > SAP® options > Select server dialog.
Click OK and close the window.
