SAP R/3 Hints
Of course it does not guarantee a successful implementation. It is a great deal of summed up aid, though.
- Team integration has to be enhanced
- Set high standards of performance for implementation team
- IT teams and users have to work closely during the implementation
- New ways of thinking and acting must not be discarded
- Do not underestimate the user training needs
- Project management should be on the critical list
- The nearest SAP branch should be your partner
- Consultants are not always the key to succeed
- Consultants are a good source of knowledge. On the other hand, letting them make configuration changes the transfer of knowledge will be harmed
- Foreign consultants usually do not know country-specific details
- Deepening your basis knowledge is always useful
- Avoid changing standard R/3 objects as much as possible
- Always follow the SAP rules to give names to your own development objects
- Establish SAP connection as soon as possible
- Exchange information with other companies
- Focus on interfaces with non-R/3 applications
- Plan the whole environment carefully (servers, network, protocols, etc.)
- Development and production environment should be totally independent
