Asset Strategy Implementation Deployment

Deploy Asset Strategy Implementation (ASI) for the First Time

The following table outlines the steps that you must complete to deploy and configure this module for the first time. These instructions assume that you have completed the steps for deploying the basic system architecture.

These tasks may be completed by multiple people in your organization. We recommend, however, that the tasks be completed in the order in which they are listed.


Step	Task	Notes
1	Install the ASI for SAP ABAP add-on on your SAP System.	This step is required.
2	Verify ASI ABAP Add-On.	This step is required.
3	Review the ASI data model to determine which relationship definitions you will need to modify to include your custom equipment and location families. Via Configuration Manager, modify the relationship definitions as needed.	Required only if you store equipment and location information in families other than the baseline Equipment and Functional Location families.
4	Assign Security Users to one or more of the ASI Security Groups and Roles.	This step is required.
5	Configure SAP for external numbering. Configure SAP for external numbering.	This step is required.
6	Configure SAP permissions.	This step is required.
7	Create a Work Management Item (WMI)via the ASI Application Settings.	This step is required only if you want to use Work Management Item Definition records beyond those provided with the baseline database.

Asset Strategy Implementation (ASI) Security Groups and Roles

The following table lists the baseline Security Groups available for users within this module, as well as the baseline Roles to which those Security Groups are assigned.

Important: Assigning a Security User to a Role grants that user the privileges associated with all of the Security Groups that are assigned to that Role. To avoid granting a Security User unintended privileges, before assigning a Security User to a Role, be sure to review all of the privileges associated with the Security Groups assigned to that Role. Also, be aware that additional Roles, as well as Security Groups assigned to existing Roles, can be added via Security Manager.

Configure SAP for External Numbering

About This Task

When you implement an Implementation Package in ASI, APM generates unique numbers for SAP Maintenance Plans, Maintenance Items, and General Maintenance Task Lists. For APM to assign these external numbers, your SAP system must be configured to allow External Numbering.

Procedure

Define the following External Number Ranges using the SAP documentation:


Object Type	From Number	To Number
Maintenance Plan Note: As a baseline, you must assign the number range to the PM group.	M00000000001	M99999999999
Maintenance Item	M000000000000001	M999999999999999
General Maintenance Task List	M0000001	M9999999

What To Do Next

Configure SAP Permissions

Before You Begin

Complete the steps described in Create APM Connect User Profile.

Procedure

Configure the following security permissions:

Access to execute RFCs as described in SAP note 460089.
Access to execute the functions contained in the /MIAPM/ASM function group.
Authorizations defined in the SAP_PM_DATATRANSFER role.

Note: For details on configuring SAP security, see the documentation for your SAP system.
