You can define missing structural elements in ARIS in accordance with the consistency rules and then add them to SAP® Solution Manager branches. As the correct structure must be maintained, you can create SAP functions with assistance, which are transferred to SAP® Solution Manager during SAP® synchronization.
Prerequisite
You have enabled the Open supporting dialog check box on the options page of Solution Manager.
You have downloaded the branch.
Procedure
In ARIS Designer, click ARIS > Explorer.
Open the model of the Branch, Scenario, or Process SAP model type in which you want to add the SAP function.
Insert an object of the SAP function type. The Create SAP function dialog opens.
Depending on the level in the assignment structure, the SAP function type is automatically entered for functions and the logical component for business process steps.
If you create business process steps implicitly, that is, you do not map a process step original, a new process step original with all attributes of the business process step is created while you transfer new elements to the SAP system. This can lead to a high number of redundant process step originals. In this case, click Consolidate process steps to change assignments and delete redundant process step originals.
Specify the relevant settings and click OK.
The SAP function is created. Optionally, the assignment structure is generated.
This SAP function, together with the assignment structure, will be included when you start the SAP® synchronization and transfer new structural elements.
If you create definition copies of synchronized SAP functions with assistance, you no longer need to delete synchronization-relevant SAP attributes to prevent errors during synchronization. These attributes are automatically deleted by the function creation wizard.
