Introduction
If you're working with SAP's Central Business Configuration (CBC) system and need to handle multiple projects (Evaluation and Implementation), this blog will help clarify how to manage them easily.
Scenario: Creating Multiple Projects in CBC
You may want to create both Evaluation and Implementation type projects in CBC and switch between them as needed. Here's a quick guide on how to do it and some limitations to keep in mind.
Key Points to Remember
Multiple Projects, Multiple Tabs:
- You can create multiple both Evaluation and Implementation type projects in CBC.
- You can switch between these projects or open them in different browser tabs.
Deployment Targets – Limited Number:
- The number of deployment targets you can assign to your projects is limited depending on your system landscape (3-system or 2-system landscape setup).
Deployment Targets in a 3-System Landscape:
- Evaluation Project:
- 1 Starter Customizing Tenant
- 1 Starter Development Tenant
- Implementation Project:
- 1 Customizing Tenant
- 1 Development Tenant
In this case, you have 4 different tenants that can be assigned to your Evaluation and Implementation projects.
Deployment Targets in a 2-System Landscape:
- Evaluation Project:
- You can assign a deployment target to your Starter System.
- Implementation Project (split into phases):
- Scope and Organizational Structure Phase: Assign a deployment target to your Quality System.
- Product-Specific Configuration Phase: Assign a deployment target to your Production System.
Who Can Create a Project?
- Only Program Managers and Project Managers have the authorization to create new projects in CBC.
- The user who creates the project is automatically assigned to it.
Important Notes:
- You can manage multiple projects in CBC but remember that the number of deployment targets is limited based on your system landscape.
- Make sure you're clear on which system (starter, customizing, development, quality, or production) needs to be assigned in each project phase.
Hope this helps clarify how to manage your projects in CBC!
