SAP Fiori Apps for ERP Baseline – Application

Purpose of SAP Fiori
SAP Fiori is a collection of apps that represent the new SAP user experience. SAP Fiori apps
have a consistent design language and make use of a common technical infrastructure. They
provide a consistent end-to-end user experience and can be used across all device types without
creating additional implementation effort.
Organized by user role, the SAP Fiori launchpad is the central entry hub to all Fiori apps where
users access apps via tiles. The launchpad has services for navigation, personalization, single
sign-on, and search. The launchpad and the tiles are flexible and can be adapted to your needs.
You can use the search in the SAP Fiori launchpad to perform a cross-entity search through core
SAP Business Suite applications. The search uses the SAP NetWeaver Embedded Search
technology on a SAP HANA database. New SAP HANA-enabled search models are delivered for
core business objects.
The Fiori apps focus on critical and common activities and are designed around how people work:

Role-based: Fiori apps decompose complex applications into a task-based experience with
one central entry point for each user.

Responsive: Fiori apps adapt to all sizes, devices, versions, and channels to provide a
common user experience across all channels.

Simple: Fiori apps follow the 1-1-3 experience (1 user, 1 scenario, 3 screens). They know and
provide the right context and meaningful data integration.

Coherent user experience with apps that speak the same design language. This implies
coherence for common activities as well as coherence for your brand.

Instant value with a low barrier to adoption, enabling customers to adapt and users to
personalize.

Interactive on desktop, tablet, and mobile platforms
All UIs are built using state-of-the-art technology such as HTML5 and SAP UI5 mobile. Fiori apps
allow you to access the most recent version of your back-end data via OData services. Through
previously defined roles and authorizations, you can specify which apps and which data a user is
allowed to access.
The purpose of this document is to give the user all necessary information around the SAP Fiori
apps for MM to be able to run them on top of the SAP Best Practices MM processes.

Overview Matrix for MM Fiori Apps
The following matrix shows the existing Fiori roles available within the MM application and the
assigned Fiori apps. The Fiori apps can be used within the mentioned baseline processes and
can replace an existing process step. It is important to understand that Fiori apps can replace
only single process steps and not a complete process. In other cases, Fiori apps offer
functionality to enhance existing processes.

4.1 Approving Purchase Order
4.1.1 Description
With Approve Purchase Orders, you can view pending purchase orders and approve them. If
necessary, you can forward approvals to a different employee for further processing.
4.1.2 Key Features

You can search for specific purchase orders.

You can display details for each purchase order, for example, the line items with detailed
information, such as account assignment and conditions.

You can approve or reject purchase orders, and you can forward them to a colleague.
4.1.3 Business Purpose for Approve Purchase Order
This app can be seen as an enhancement of our existing baseline scope items and can be used
as replacement of the approve purchase order transaction ME29N.
As opposed to the standard transaction, the purchasing manager or buyer can use this
transactional app to quickly get information about a purchase order, for example, conditions, and
can approve, reject or forward it. Under this assumption, this app can be used together with
several scope items. In the following, you find the scope items for which this app fits best from a
business perspective:

Page 17 of 87
SAP Fiori Apps for the SAP ERP Application MM
Role
SAP_MM_BCR_Buyer_X1
The role must be assigned to the user used during launchpad logon with transaction PFCG.
The user needs to be maintained in the gateway server.
5. Create the following settings in addition to the Customizing of the Baseline package:
Before implementing the app, you must ensure the following:

You use the release strategy in Purchasing (MM-PUR).

You have set up a connection between the release strategy and SAP Business Workflow.

You have configured the approval workflow for approving purchase orders.

The business users that will use the Approve Purchase Orders app have the
authorizations required for approving purchase orders in the SAP GUI.

To enable Approve Purchase Orders, you have specified the workflow tasks that are
relevant for approving purchase orders. You do this in the Customizing for Materials
Management under Purchasing → Purchase Order → Approve Purchase Orders App →
Specify Workflow Task IDs for Approve Purchase Orders App.
6. Configuration Details in Connection with the Baseline Customizing:
1. Go to the SAP Customizing Implementation Guide (transaction SPRO): Materials
Management → Purchase Order → Release Procedures for Purchase Orders → Edit
Characteristic:

After you have added the required configuration settings, you can run the app
together with the SAP Best Practices Baseline Customizing.
The app does not work with stock transfer orders. The supported item categories for
this app are: standard, service, and limit.
In the current SAP Best Practices Baseline Customizing, release strategies have
been set up for PO Header.
Workflow is not in scope for PO Release Strategies in the current Baseline scope.
As a result, these Customizing changes lead to a different behavior compared to
what is described in the original Baseline business process documentation.
4.2 Order from Requisition
4.2.1 Description
With Order from Requisitions, you can convert approved purchase requisitions into purchase
orders. The app assigns matching suppliers to each purchase requisition, and then bundles the
requisitions to create a purchase order for each supplier.

Order from Requisitions is not optimized for use with a phone. Please use a
tablet or desktop device.

Order from Requisitions does not support service items.
4.2.2 Key Features

Display approved purchase requisitions that are not yet assigned to suppliers

Assign suppliers to a selected set of purchase requisitions

Select the relevant supplier if multiple suppliers can deliver the product

Bundle a selected set of purchase requisitions by supplier and simulate the purchase
orders (one purchase order per supplier)

Review simulated purchase orders

Create purchase orders
4.2.3 Business Purpose for Order from Requisition
This app can be seen as an enhancement of the existing SAP Best Practices Baseline scope
items in which purchase orders are created out of requisitions. The app allows you to execute a
lot of steps in a single interface: Assign suppliers, simulate purchase orders, and finally, create
the purchase orders. In contrast to the standard transaction, you can use the simulated purchase
order as a collector for requisitions.
Under this assumption, this app can be used together with several scope items. In the following,
you find the scope items for which this app fits best from a business perspective:

5.1.2 SAP Smart Business App Valuated Stock Quantity
5.1.2.1 Description
With Valuated Stock Quantity, you can display the closing valuated stock quantity based on a
specific end date. The closing stock enables you to get an overview of the distribution according
to the dimensions plant, type of material, or product hierarchy. This information about the
aggregated stock situation allows you to react in a timely manner.
5.1.2.2 Key Features
Query View: sap.hab.r.ecc.MaterialValStockOnDateQuery
Displays the closing valuated stock quantity on a specific end date
Calculation Rule:
The closing valuated stock quantity is the key date quantity at the end of a specific time frame. To
determine the valuated stock, all relevant postings, for example, all goods movements, are
considered.
The point in time, in this case, the day on which a business process took place, is important to
determine its share in the calculation result. This includes the calculation of average values and
quantities.
To get a realistic calculation of averages for all average inventories, a specific weighting
approach is used in the Inventory Management KPIs: for the calculation of each business
process, such as a goods receipt, the posting date is considered in relation to the number of days
within the specific time frame. The posting date of the business process itself is considered with
half a day.
5.1.2.3 Business Purpose
This app can be seen as an enhancement of the existing SAP Best Practices Baseline scope
items in which goods are received or issued. A warehouse manager, for example, can quickly get
an overview about the current stock situation and reduce the quantity and costs.
You may consider using the Valuated Stock Quantity app for the following scope items:

Procurement without QM (130)

5.1.4 SAP Smart Business App Inventory Turnover
5.1.4.1 Description
With Inventory Turnover, you can determine how often the average material was destocked and
restocked in a specific time frame. A high inventory turnover indicates that materials are not in
storage for a long time and that storage costs are low. With this KPI, you receive important
information about special materials or material groups.
5.1.4.2 Key Features
Query view: sap.hab.r.ecc.MaterialValStockValueTurnoverQuery
Displays the inventory turnover based on the current valuated stock value within a specific time
frame
Calculation rule:
© SAP SE
Page 59 of 87
SAP Fiori Apps for the SAP ERP Application MM
Inventory Turnover is the relation between the average consumption divided by the average
valuated stock value.
The average consumption is the total consumption divided by the number of days within a
specific time frame.
The point in time, in this case, the day on which a business process took place, is important to
determine its share in the calculation result. This includes the calculation of average values and
quantities.
To get a realistic calculation of averages for all average inventories, a specific weighting
approach is used in the Inventory Management KPIs: for the calculation of each business
process, such as a goods receipt, the posting date is considered in relation to the number of days
within the specific time frame. The posting date of the business process itself is considered with
half a day
5.1.4.3 Business Purpose
You may use this app for all scope items in which goods are received, issued, and restocked; for
example:

Procurement without QM

Stock Handling: Scrap and Blocked Stock

Stock Transfer with Delivery

Stock Transfer without Delivery

Return to Vendor

Physical Inventory / Inventory Count and Adjustment

Procurement and Consumption of Consigned Inventory

5.2.2 SAP Smart Business App Contract Usage
5.2.2.1 Description
With Contract Usage, you can compare the expected release amount against the actual release
amount of contracts in a specific time frame.
5.2.2.2 Key Features
With Contract Usage, you can find the following:

The expected amount compared to the released amount in percent

The expected amount in the display currency

The released amount in the display currency

The target amount in the display currency
Calculation rule for quantity contracts and value contracts:
The expected release amount is calculated proportionally to the specified time frame and the
target release amount of the contract. The percentage corresponds to the release amount in
proportion to the expected release amount. The target amount of the contract either corresponds
to the target amount of the contract header, or to the sum of all item amounts. If amounts are

5.2.3 SAP Smart Business App Off Contract Spend
5.2.3.1 Description
With Off-Contract Spend, you can analyze the total spend amount in relation to purchase orders
that do not have a contract reference. For some items, no negotiated pricing or blanket purchase
agreement is in place when they are purchased. These items are defined as non-contract
purchases. You can use this KPI to measure the percentage of purchases made without any
contract being in place. This is important so that you can keep the rate of off-contract spend low.
5.2.3.2 Key Features
Query view: sap.hba.eccPurchasingSpendOffContractQuery
Calculation rule: To determine the percentage of your purchasing spend that has no contract
reference within a specific time frame, the total net amount of purchase order items made without
a contract reference is compared to the total net amount of purchase order items.
