SAP implementation complexity estimator

[#1]

Dear Experts,

coupld please, share whether there are any estimators (tools or methodologies) for the implementation complexity in order to check:

- Utilizatin of SAP (like how many Z-enhancements),

- how many transactions used/ not used

- Security customizing, how many profiles, roles...

- Some reports on how many documents created

The idea is to have some tool to understand the sophistication of the implementation, and utilization of SAP functionality installed.

Thanks in advance,

The best approach to solving this issue to to now leverage SAP Solution Manager - specifically a capability called ' Solution Document Assistant' - T-code - SolDocA This is a great way to - Reverse Business Engineer your production environments and capture those business processes that are in use- ( based on a threshold that is user defined. ) This allows you to then create a 'project' in Solution Manager that identifies at the process step level - your scope.

Hi Kirill,

SAP used to support a tool called RBE - Reverse Business Engineer - This too basically would extract the historical information out of your production environment and identify / Transactions Used / Not Used / Z Programs ..ect. They stoped supporting this a number of years ago. There is new functionality I've heard of in Solution MAnager 7.0 Enterprise Edition called Solution documentation Assistant - this works in a similar fashion to basically identify the scope of your solution and build you the documentation around it. There is one Company called - IBIS-RBE that will provide a service at your company to extract your historical data as well.

Hope this helps
