Business Process Management

[Werner.Koessl@hirschvogel.de]

Hi Jocelyn,

Thanks for your answer!
We only use the Business Workflow right now but we are upgrading.
I already booked the SAP courses but i wanted to know a little bit before to
have a small overview.

Regards,
Werner.

Hi Werner, 

BPM is a blanket term for SAP Business Workflow, ccBPM, Guided Procedures
and other related features. 
It's not a solution in itself.  

Also WebDynpro is one of many development techniques for web applications.
The Enterprise Portal is a 
portal that can run many different web applications - and is certainly not
limited to WebDynpro. 

Sounds like you need some consulting guidance to clarify the termninology
and work out what is suitable for different scenarios.  


For the moment think:
Workflow - processes within one application (e.g. within one ECC system)
Guided Procedures - processes acrosses applications (e.g. using an ECC and
an SRM system)
ccBPM - processes that choreograph message send/receive for multiple systems
in XI

Hi workflow-colleagues,

We are upgrading from R/3 4.6C to ERP 2005 (NW2004s) right now.
Up to now we are only using SAP Business Workflow.

What is the new workflow generation (BPM) like in ERP2005?
I know that i can further use Business Workflow in ECC6.0 with a few more
functions than in 4.6C!?
I can use Enterprise Portal (WebDynpro) to build user interfaces and link
them with the Business Workflow!?
And i can use XI resp. ccBPM when i need processes that cover more than only
the ECC-system!?

What is your opinion about business process management?

Regards,
Werner.
