Scope of the Project
Upgrade the current ECC 6.0 to EHP4 and Support Stack SPS12 as quickly as possible
while ensuring that adequate Unit and Integration testing is planned and executed with
precision. Following the initial implementation of ECC 6.0 in March 2012 (Project
Cornerstone), the ERP system entered a stabilization period and did not undergo any EHP or
SPS upgrades. Panaya Testing Analysis, Planning, Reporting and Defect Remediation Tool
was used to pin-point code modifications, require OSS Notes and create unit/integration test
scripts and scenarios for automated testing.
Modules in-scope: FI/CO, HCM, MM, PS, ESS/Portal, Payroll, SD, CRM, BI/BW/BOBJ
Project Accomplishments
In 5 months with a team of consultants, this project delivered an end-to-end technology
upgrade to ECC 6.0 EHP4 SPS12 solution to cover the global operations of TCCO’s
business. The approach included developing a test strategy, plans, execution and monitoring
approach and executive test reporting. The approach uplifted a subset of test
cases/scenarios and recorded them in the Panaya Test Automation and Test management.
As a result, a permanent long-term strategy for optimized technology upgrade projects has
been devised with detailed Roles/Responsibilities (RACI) matrix for test scripts creation,
execution, verification and validation and a set of Playbooks for fast delivery.
