CAUTION

This guide does not replace the daily operations handbook that we recommend customers create
for their specific production operations.
Designing, implementing, and running your SAP applications at peak performance 24 hours a day has
never been more vital for your business success than now.
This guide provides a starting point for managing your SAP applications and maintaining and running
them optimally. It contains specific information for various tasks and lists the tools that you can use
to implement them. This guide also provides references to the documentation required for these tasks,
so you need other Guides such as the Master Guide, Technical Infrastructure Guide, and SAP Library.

1.1 Global Definitions


SAP Application:

An SAP application is an SAP software solution that serves a specific business area like ERP, CRM,
PLM, SRM, SCM.
Business Scenario:

From a microeconomic perspective, a business scenario is a cycle, which consists of several different
interconnected logical processes in time. Typically, a business scenario includes several company
departments and involves with other business partners. From a technical point of view, a business
scenario needs at least one SAP application (SAP ERP, SAP SCM, or others) for each cycle and possibly
other third-party systems. A business scenario is a unit that can be implemented separately and reflects
the customers prospective course of business.
Component:

A component is the smallest individual unit considered within the Solution Development Lifecycle;
components are separately produced, delivered, installed and maintained.

Monitoring of EWM

3.1

Alert Monitoring with CCMS

3 Monitoring of EWM

Within the management of SAP Technology, monitoring is an essential task. A section has therefore
been devoted solely to this subject.
For more information about the underlying technology, see the Technical Operations Manual for SAP
NetWeaver in SAP Help Portal at http://help.sap.com SAP NetWeaver SAP NetWeaver 7.0 (2004s)
SAP NetWeaver 7.0 Library English SAP NetWeaver Library Administrators Guide Technical Operations
Manual for SAP NetWeaver .

3.1 Alert Monitoring with CCMS


Proactive, automated monitoring is the basis for ensuring reliable operations for your SAP system
environment. SAP provides you with the infrastructure and recommendations needed to set up your
alert monitoring to recognize critical situations for SAP EWM as quickly as possible.

3.1.1 CCMS Monitoring Installation and Setup


SAP EWM is technically based on SAP Web AS 7.01 (part of SAP enhancement package 1 for SAP
NetWeaver 7.0) and thus reuses monitoring tools from NetWeaver such as the Computing Center
Management System (CCMS). Therefore, we recommend that you set up the Monitoring
Infrastructure as described in the Monitoring Setup Guide for SAP NetWeaver 7.0 (2004s) at http://
service.sap.com/instguides SAP NetWeaver SAP NetWeaver 7.0 (2004s) Operations Monitoring .
For general information about alert monitoring, see the Technical Operations Manual for SAP
NetWeaver in the SAP Library under SAP NetWeaver.
To enable the auto-alert mechanism of CCMS, see SAP Note Number 617547.
For more information about monitoring, see also the Technical Operations Manual for SAP
NetWeaver in SAP Help Portal at http://help.sap.com SAP NetWeaver SAP NetWeaver 7.0 (2004s)

Selection and Processing of Post Processing Framework Actions

3.1.2 SAP EWM Monitor


SAP EWM allows monitoring of SAP Core Interface (CIF) Master Data Queues and EWM-specific values.
You can start the monitor in the SAP Easy Access screen, by choosing Tools CCMS Control/Monitoring
CCMS Monitor Sets (transaction RZ20).

3.2 Selection and Processing of Post Processing Framework


Actions
To monitor Post Processing Framework (PPF) actions (e.g. the printing of delivery notes) with errors
the transaction SPFP is available in EWM.
The following applications that use Post Processing Framework (PPF) for the generation of actions are
available:
qy+s /SCDL/DELIVERY
qy+s /SCTM/FOM
qy+s /SCWM/SHP_RCV
qy+s /SCWM/WME
qy+s QIE

3.3 Detailed Monitoring and Tools for Problem and


Performance Analysis
SAP EWM is technically based on SAP Web AS 7.01. For information about technical problem analysis
(such as for database, operating system, or workload analysis) see the Technical Operations Manual for
SAP NetWeaver in SAP Help Portal at http://help.sap.com SAP NetWeaver SAP NetWeaver 7.0
(2004s) SAP NetWeaver 7.0 Library English SAP NetWeaver Library Administrators Guide . This guide
covers only the differences and additional information specific to SAP EWM.
In addition, SAP EWM uses the Exchange Infrastructure (XI). For more information about the
monitoring of the Exchange Infrastructure, see the Technical Operations Manual for SAP
NetWeaver at http://help.sap.com SAP NetWeaver SAP NetWeaver 7.0 (2004s) SAP NetWeaver 7.0
Library English SAP NetWeaver Library Administrators Guide SAP NetWeaver Technical Operations Manual

3.3.1 Trace and Log Files


Trace files and log files are essential for analyzing problems.
The standard NetWeaver tools such as transactions ST22 and SM21 can be used to monitor trace and
log files. For more information, see the Technical Operations Manual for SAP NetWeaver at http://

Additionally, EWM uses the application log (part of SAP NetWeaver) to store application error, warning,
and success messages issued in critical processes (for example the delivery interface between ERP and
EWM) or in UI transactions. For UI transactions, the application log has to be saved explicitly by the
user.
For general information on application logs, see the SAP Help Portal at http://help.sap.com SAP

Data Consistency
NOTE

Archiving of replicated master data (for example products, locations, supply chain units, business
partners, batch data) is not necessary in EWM. The deletion of the master data is triggered by the
solution (for example ERP, CRM), in which the master data was created originally.
For periodic tasks required to contain data growth (that is, to reorganize temporary data), refer to
Periodic Tasks [page 20].

3.4 Data Consistency


SAP EWM exchanges data with SAP ERP using asynchronous messages. If such a message exchange
fails, you can re-send messages. So cases of data inconsistency do not apply here. For more information
about check tools for checking message exchange errors, see the Other Important Problem Analysis and
Monitoring Tools section in this guide.

4 Management of SAP EWM

SAP provides you with an infrastructure to help your technical support consultants and system
administrators effectively manage all SAP components and complete all tasks related to technical
administration and operation.
For more information about the underlying technology, see the Technical Operations Manual in the
SAP Library under SAP NetWeaver.

4.1 Starting and Stopping


EWM is provided as part of SAP SCM or as an add-on to SAP ERP.
{X~ EWM as part of SAP SCM: EWM is started/stopped together with the SCM Server (STARTSAP/
STOPSAP). For more information, see the SCM Application Operations Guide.
{X~ EWM as Add-On to SAP ERP: EWM is started/stopped together with SAP ERP (STARTSAP/
STOPSAP). For more information, see the ERP Solution Operation Guide.
We recommend in both cases that you start the interface components CIF and SAP XI (if used) after
starting EWM and that you stop them before stopping EWM.
For more information about STARTSAP/STOPSAP and SAPMMC, see the Technical Operations Manual for
SAP NetWeaver on SAP Help Portal under SAP NetWeaver SAP NetWeaver 7.0 (2004s) (select language)

4.4 Backup and Restore


You need to back up your system landscape regularly to ensure that you can restore and recover it in
case of failure.
The backup and restore strategy for Application consists of two parts:
o Backup and restore coverage for each component (see table below)
o Cross-system data dependencies and handling
The backup and restore strategy for your system landscape should not only consider SAP systems but
should also be embedded in overall business requirements and incorporate your companys entire
process flow.
In addition, the backup and restore strategy must cover disaster recovery processes, such as the loss of
a data center through fire. It is most important in this context that you ensure that backup devices are
not lost together with normal data storage (separation of storage locations).
Based on the type of application data contained in a component, we have introduced a categorization
scheme for system components that can be used to analyze the backup requirements of any system
component and to easily determine an appropriate backup method for this component. The following
table contains the appropriate Categories of System Components for Backup & Restore.

Classification

SAP EWM is the leading component for application data, for example warehouse tasks and warehouse
data. It also holds replicated data such as business partners or product data. SAP EWM exchanges data
with various components of an SAP Business Suite system landscape.
SAP EWM is based on SAP Web AS. As a component with application data, the backup/restore must
comprise database, and ABAP application server backup/restore. SAP EWM is a pure ABAP-based
component and the technical configuration data is stored in ABAP database tables.
EWM as an Add-On on ERP should always be backed up together with ERP. For the backup and recovery
of the database, the ABAP Application Server and SAP ERP, see the SAP ERP Application Operations
Guide at http://service.sap.com/instguides SAP Business Suite Applications SAP ERP SAP ERP
6.0 Operations .
There are no data dependencies between SAP EWM and other components of SAP SCM.
Backup

The backup of the database and SAP Web AS takes care of application data, configuration settings and
log data. For more information, see the Best Practice documentation for backing up and restoring SAP
Business Suite on SAP Service Marketplace at http://service.sap.com/bp-roadmap.

Application Copy

Online Backup

The data contained in the database can be backed up online. However, it is not possible to do the same
for the runtime infrastructure. An online backup refers to the system landscape and not the databases
that contain the business-critical application or the infrastructure components.
NOTE

If you perform a backup while the server is running, open files may not be backed up.
Restore

See the Best Practice documentation for backing up and restoring SAP Business Suite on SAP Service
Marketplace at http://service.sap.com/bp-roadmap.
Backup and Recovery of SAP Netweaver Components

For the backup and recovery concept for all other SAP NetWeaver components mentioned in this
guide, such as SAP XI, see the Technical Operations Manual for SAP NetWeaver in SAP Help Portal at
http://help.sap.com SAP NetWeaver SAP NetWeaver 7.0 (2004s) SAP NetWeaver 7.0 Library
English SAP NetWeaver Library Technical Operations Manual for SAP NetWeaver ..

4.5 Application Copy


For a system copy of the EWM component as part of SCM or as add-on to ERP, the standard procedures
of SAP NetWeaver apply.
For more information, see the Technical Operations Manual for SAP NetWeaver under General
Administration Tasks System Copy .
Heterogeneous system copies are currently supported on request and on a project basis. More details
and forms are available under http://service.sap.com/osdbmigration.
NOTE

A client copy from one system into another system with a different operating system or database
is not an alternative to a complete heterogeneous migration. For example, client copies do not
ensure that all repository changes are taken over into the new system. Therefore, if you want to
change your database or application server platform, a heterogeneous system copy is the only
procedure that ensures full data replication into the new system.

4.6 Periodic Tasks


In addition to the standard jobs mentioned in the Technical Operations Manual for SAP NetWeaver
(in the SAP Library under SAP NetWeaver), you must schedule EWM-specific jobs in your SAP system.
All jobs, unless otherwise specified, should be run at times of minimal system activity, so as not to affect
performance or otherwise disrupt your daily operations. All jobs are restartable. There are no
dependencies between the jobs.
