Costs: 75% savings on subsequent corrections. Significant reduction in development and maintenance costs. ABAP code: 84% faster and more fail-safe programs. Improved performance reduces runtime and hardware utilization. Targeted corrections minimize system errors and downtime.
Database layer: The database layer contains a database server on which all the data of the SAP ERP system is managed. This includes the database management system (DBMS for short) and the actual dataset. The dataset includes user data and data tables as well as applications and system control tables.
Authorization management: preparation and follow-up of audits as well as ongoing or selective support
Application layer: The application layer is the core of an R/3 SAP Basis system. This layer communicates in both directions, to the presentation layer and to the database layer. The application programs on the application servers request the required data from the database layer, process it, prepare it for the user and pass it on to the presentation layer. Data that the user enters in the SAP GUI is passed on to the database via the application servers.
In more complex system environments, thousands, if not tens of thousands, of SAP jobs can run per day. Their interdependencies create a high level of complexity. If administrators or admin teams want to maintain an overview, they have to rely on meaningful monitoring. It must be clear at all times which jobs are running and which are not, in order to ensure proper SAP operation. Ideally, one is informed of critical errors by e-mail or SMS. The trend towards internationalization, outsourcing and mixed operation with on-premise and on-demand systems means that SAP landscapes are often widely distributed. This makes monitoring more difficult and, at the same time, clarity must be maintained. Integrating SAP job management and job requests into a central system, such as SAP Solution Manager, therefore makes sense and is useful for supplementing IT service processes in a meaningful way and accelerating process flows.
For administrators, a useful product - "Shortcut for SAP Systems" - is available in the SAP basis area.
To store personalisation data in the central repository, a key must be assigned to the data: This is done via the registration transaction PERSREG.
You cannot insert an FCS support package in a non-FCS system (official state of delivery).
