C_S4CPB_2508 Exam Dumps - SAP Certified Associate - Implementation Consultant - SAP S/4HANA Cloud Public Edition

 The organizational entities that are required in SAP Central Business Configuration are defined by the selected deployment target and the selected scope. The deployment target specifies which SAP cloud solutions are included in the project, such as SAP S/4HANA Cloud, public edition. The scope specifies which business processes and countries/regions are included in the project, such as sales or professional services. These choices determine which organizational units are required to run the underlying processes, such as company, business residence, sales organization, or project unit. Added partner content and system consistency checks do not define the organizational entities, but rather enhance or validate the configuration. References = SAP Central Business Configuration – Overview, page 5; Introducing SAP Central Business Configuration

In SAP Central Business Configuration, the organizational entities that need to be defined for an SAP S/4HANA Cloud Public Edition implementation are influenced by two primary factors: the selected deployment target and the selected scope. The deployment target refers to the specific environment or system where SAP S/4HANA Cloud will be implemented. This choice can affect which organizational entities are necessary based on the technical and business requirements of that environment. The selected scope, on the other hand, pertains to the business processes and functions that the company intends to use within SAP S/4HANA Cloud. This determines the organizational structures, such as company codes, sales organizations, and purchasing organizations, that need to be set up to support the scoped processes. Both factors are integral to ensuring that the configuration supports the business's operational needs and strategic objectives.

During the Fit-to-Standard workshops, an implementation consultant supports customer experts by doing the following:

Demonstrate SAP Best Practice business processes in the starter system. The consultant shows the customer experts how the standard processes work in SAP S/4HANA Cloud Public Edition and how they fit their business needs1.

Highlight areas that require configuration or customization decisions. The consultant identifies and documents the gaps between the standard processes and the customer requirements, and proposes solutions that are aligned with the cloud mindset1.

The other options are not the correct ways to support customer experts during the Fit-to-Standard workshops. Determining set up instructions for customer-driven integrations is done in the integration phase, after the Fit-to-Standard workshops are completed2. Conducting end-user training on active scope items is done in the deploy phase, before the go-live of the system3. References = Conducting Fit-to-Standard Workshops - SAP Learning, SAP S/4HANA Cloud Public Edition - Integration, Deploying SAP S/4HANA Cloud Public Edition.

Based on the SAP Activate methodology, the Explore phase is where consultants configure business processes based on the information gathered in the Fit-to-Standard workshops. The Fit-to-Standard analysis is conducted in a series of workshops and allows for validation of predefined scenarios agreed upon and to make room for enhancements or additional configuration required. To prepare for this workshop, it is recommended that teams get familiar with the SAP Best Practices content, including the process flows, test scripts with sample data, and other documentation available in SAP Best Practices Explorer. Consultants should also use the Test system to demonstrate SAP Best Practice processes and enable business users to run the end-to-end processes and identify any gaps. The other two activities, conducting the Digital Discovery Assessment and defining the organizational structure and chart of accounts, are part of the Prepare phase, not the Explore phase. References = SAP Activate – Explore Phase: Use Fit-to-Standard to confirm business process fit and identify gaps in your SAP S/4HANA Cloud Implementation, SAP Explore Phase Activities: Define Target BP and Architecture, SAP Activate Elements and Phases, Explaining the Explore Phase

The following would prevent SAP from running a Post-Upgrade Test (PUT) on a customer’s behalf:

An execution variant has not been maintained: An execution variant is a set of test data that is used to execute a test process. It contains the input values and expected results for each test step. If an execution variant is not maintained for a test process, the system cannot run the test automatically and will skip it1.

The test process failed the execution pre-check: The execution pre-check is a validation that is performed before the test execution to ensure that the test process and the execution variant are consistent and complete. If the execution pre-check fails, it means that there are some issues or gaps in the test process or the execution variant that need to be resolved before the test can be run2.

The following would not prevent SAP from running a Post-Upgrade Test (PUT) on a customer’s behalf:

Data marked for deletion is picked for execution: Data marked for deletion is data that is no longer relevant or valid for the test process. It can be marked for deletion by the customer or by SAP. However, this does not affect the test execution, as the system will ignore the data marked for deletion and use the available data for the test process3.

The process steps have been reordered: The process steps are the individual actions that are performed as part of the test process. They can be reordered by the customer or by SAP to reflect the changes in the business process or the user interface. However, this does not affect the test execution, as the system will follow the order of the process steps as defined in the test process4.

SAP provides several tools to facilitate the maintenance of SAP S/4HANA Cloud systems following a release upgrade, ensuring that customers can smoothly transition to the latest functionalities and improvements:

What's New Viewer Tool: This tool is invaluable for understanding the changes and new features introduced with each SAP S/4HANA Cloud release. It provides detailed descriptions of new functionalities, improvements, and changes in the system, helping customers to adapt their processes and leverage new capabilities effectively. It serves as a guide to explore and understand the enhancements that come with each upgrade.

Test Automation Tool: Post-upgrade, it's crucial to ensure that existing functionalities continue to work as expected and new features are correctly implemented. The Test Automation Tool allows customers to automate testing of business processes, significantly reducing the time and effort required for testing after a release upgrade. This tool helps in identifying any issues arising from the upgrade early in the process, ensuring a smooth transition to the new release.

These tools are designed to assist customers in navigating the complexities of system upgrades, ensuring that they can make the most out of new features while maintaining their existing system's stability and performance.

The IT Contact is the person who receives the welcome email from SAP and is responsible for setting up the initial access to SAP Cloud ALM. The IT Contact needs to eventually provide all project team members access to SAP Cloud ALM, but it’s most important the partner and customer project managers are given access first, because they are responsible for setting up the implementation project and assigning tasks to the other project team members1. The project manager is a partner role that has the authorization to create and manage projects in SAP Cloud ALM2. References = Setting up the Implementation Project in SAP Cloud ALM, Teams, Roles, and Access Restrictions | SAP Help Portal

In the context of SAP Cloud ALM (Application Lifecycle Management), the IT Contact is typically responsible for the initial setup and assignment of roles within the project. The first role to which the IT Contact often assigns access permission is:

Project manager: The project manager plays a crucial role in overseeing the SAP project's planning, execution, and completion. By assigning access permission to the project manager first, the IT Contact ensures that the project manager has the necessary tools and insights to manage the project effectively within SAP Cloud ALM. This access allows the project manager to monitor project progress, manage resources, and make informed decisions, facilitating successful project execution and alignment with business goals.

Granting the project manager access to SAP Cloud ALM is a strategic decision that empowers them to lead the project efficiently, leveraging the platform's capabilities for project management, monitoring, and collaboration.

 

Indirect digital access occurs when humans, devices, or systems use the digital core indirectly through non-SAP intermediary software, such as a non-SAP front end, a custom-solution, or any other non-SAP application1. Indirect digital access is measured by the number of documents created, updated, or deleted in the SAP system as a result of the indirect use2. Examples of indirect digital access include:

A Defect document created through an industry application: This is an example of indirect digital access because the industry application is a non-SAP software that triggers the creation of a document in the SAP system.

A Time Sheet Record from a 3rd party application: This is also an example of indirect digital access because the 3rd party application is a non-SAP software that triggers the creation of a document in the SAP system.

An unattended bot in SAP Build Process Automation: This is not an example of indirect digital access because the bot is using SAP software to access the SAP system directly, not through a non-SAP intermediary software.

A Production Order created through a non-SAP front-end: This is not an example of indirect digital access because the production order is not a document type that is counted for indirect digital access. The document types that are counted are: Sales Order, Invoice, Purchase Order, Service and Maintenance Document, Manufacturing Document, Quality Management Document, Time Sheet, Financial Document, and Material Document2. References = Digital Access | SAP Help Portal, SAP Digital Access / SAP Digital Access Adoption Program (DAAP) Extension through December 31, 2021
