SAP Business One Accelerated Implementation Program

ACCELERATED IMPLEMENTATION PROGRAM


The SAP Business One Accelerated Implementation Program is a comprehensive implementation methodology created by SAP. The methodology has been designed to serve as a guideline for the system setup and implementation process. It includes the SAP Business One Implementation Guide and a set of templates, checklists, tools, and other supporting information that divide the implementation process into ve phases. Each phase breaks down the relevant tasks that have to be completed, and suggests roles, responsibilities, and time frames required to successfully complete the implementation.

PHASE 1
Purpose The purpose of this phase is to provide initial planning and preparation for the SAP Business One implementation project. Although each SAP Business One project has its own unique objectives, scope, and priorities; the steps in the preparation phase help identify and plan the primary focus areas that need to be considered. This does include technical issues as well as project management topics. In addition, the SAP Business One software is delivered during this phase and a preliminary installation of a sandbox or test system is completed.

PHASE 2
Purpose The purpose of this phase is to achieve a common understanding of how the client intends to run SAP Business One to support their business. One or more requirements gathering workshops are conducted during which business processes and individual functional requirements of the client are de ned and analyzed. In addition, the workshops serve to re ne the original project goals and objectives as well as to revise the overall project schedule, if necessary. The result is the Business Blueprint, which is a detailed documentation of the results gathered during requirements workshops. The Business Blueprint serves as a technical and functional guide during the subsequent phases of the SAP Business One implementation project. Milestones 2.1: Schedule and conduct business requirement-gathering workshops with client functional leads 2.2: Create Business Blueprint 2.3: Determine changes to project scope and time schedule (if applicable) 2.4: Obtain project phase sign-o from customer for Business Blueprint Key documents Business Blueprint Project Plan SAP Guides Templates Meeting Agenda Template Meeting Minutes Template SAP Business One Business Blueprint SAP Business One Guides Project Plan Project Phase Signo

PHASE 3
Purpose This phase is the most signi cant of the implementation phases. The purpose of Project Realization is to implement all the business processes and technical requirements de ned during the previous phases and documented in the Business Blueprint. During this phase, the consultants validate and update con guration and demonstrate processes while the customer updates the work instructions (business process procedures: BPP) and performs unit and integration tests. Milestones 3.1: SAP Business One production system customized based on Blueprint 3.2: Data migration complete (if applicable) 3.3: System setup validated and testing complete 3.4: Training and cut-over plan de ned 3.5: Obtain project phase sign-o from customer for Project Realization Key documents Business Process Master List Test Guide and Test Plans Change Management Communication Guide Templates Meeting Agenda Template Change Management Communication Guide SAP Business One Guides Business Process Master List Training Plan Test Strategy Guide Test Case Template Test Plans Issue Log Change Request Form Change Log Project Plan Project Phase Signo

Accelerated Implementation Program Five Phases


Phase 1: Project Preparation During this phase, the team prepares and conducts a project kick-o meeting and goes through initial planning and preparation for the SAP Business One implementation. Phase 2: Business Blueprint During this phase, a requirements workshop is conducted with various key stakeholders to de ne project objectives, scope, and schedule. In addition, the relevant business process scenarios are de ned. In order to document the results gathered during the workshops, the Business Blueprint is created. Phase 3: Project Realization The purpose of this phase is to implement all business process requirements based on the Business Blueprint. Other key focal areas of this phase are conducting integration tests and developing end user documentation. Phase 4: Final Preparation The purpose of this phase is to complete nal preparation (including user and administrator training, system management and cutover activities) to nalize go-live readiness. Upon successful completion of this phase, the SAP Business One system is ready to be used as a productive environment. Phase 5: Go-Live and Support The purpose of this phase is to move from a project-oriented, pre-production environment to live production operation. The most important elements include setting up production support, monitoring system transactions, and optimizing overall system performance.
