Roll-out project implementation issue

[szabolcs_domb]

Dear colleagues,

This issue might have already been turned up but couldn't find any related threads.

We have created our template project, set up the structure, added project documentations (11MBs converted to PDF ), training materials, everything seems to be ok here.

Now we have to create our first implementation project based on the template. Template is defined and is public (visible), Global Rollout Functionality is activated. The issue is, when we cretate the implementation project the structure is copied from the template, even the training materials can be seen in SOLAR02, but none of our blueprint documents are copied to the roll-out project.

Have you ever faced such situation before? Do you have any clue where to find the root cause of this?

thanks in advance for your replies

Hi,

Below mentioned is the details of using the SOLMAN for template rollout project. Hope this helps you.

The process of setting up and using the template in projects involves two or more individual projects. The first project is referred as "Master Project".

For Master project: Global Program Setup(Project Preparation)

- Create a master project. this must be of project type template since this will allow the packaging of reuse elements.

- Create the required number of templates(with in master project). At this stage, these templates are empty packages.

- Select standard scenarios as a starting point to build business scenarios in the master project, in the same way as for a normal project.

For Master project: Global Buisness Blueprint

- Detail standard scenarios to customer specific solution structure

- Assign template(s) at the scenario level of the customer specific solution structure

- Set global attributes to determine global/standard/harmonised/local processes

- Describe global business and technical requirement.

==========================================

Reuse of template at local rollout site

Project Preparation:

- Create a local "rollout" project. This can be either an implemetation project type or can itself be a template project type if you may need to reuse sections of this project in its own right.

- Select one or multiple templates and related scenarios in the scope tabbed page.

Note: there is no direct relationship between the templates choosen here. In other words you can attach tempalte form multiple other "master" projects, which may have no other relationship to one another.

Business Blueprint:

- The contents of the templates which have been attached to the "roll-out" project appears as elements of the project structure.

- Processes defined as global attributes with in the template area dopted wholesale with no changes.

- Adapt harmonised and local processes to local specific requirement(such as enhance process scope).

- Document local specific requirements of harmonised or local processes.

- Add further local specific structure elements as required and document.

Hope this help. Pls assign points.

Hi Manish,

thanks for replying. I can't reward you with points since in your comment you depict the way how to use roll-out implementation projects, but these are clear for us.

Now, we have a particular issue, for which we are seeking for an answer (if there is any... ).
