2.5.2 Full System Landscape

The full, productive system landscape of the SAP EHS Management add-on is based on SAP ERP and SAPNetWeaver.

The following graphic depicts the full system landscape:

Figure 1: Full System Landscape

The full system landscape contains the following elements:

SAP ERP on ABAP Server

SAP EHS Management is an add-on to SAP ERP. The SAP EHS Management add-on uses the SAP ERPapplication and SAP NetWeaver Application Server (SAP NetWeaver AS) for ABAP.

The components run on the same ABAP server as SAP ERP. This server exchanges data with the database.

Portal (optional) and Adobe Document Services (ADS) on J2EE Server

In SAP EHS Management, you use Adobe Document Services (ADS) for local printing and for SAP InteractiveForms by Adobe. You have the option to use the SAP NetWeaver Portal (including Business Package for EHSManagement and the EP Core - Application Portal).



The SAP NetWeaver AS for Java enables the Web services for these components. The components run on aJ2EE server that exchanges data with the database.

SAP NetWeaver Business Warehouse (BW)

Using the components of SAP NetWeaver BW is optional. The data entered into SAP EHS Management can beextracted and stored in BW for use in analytical reporting.

BI Content contains BW modeling/objects, BEx queries, and SAP BusinessObjects Dashboards. Werecommend that you run BI Content, BW, and the corresponding SAP NetWeaver AS for ABAP on an ABAPserver dedicated to analytical reporting.

You use BI Java to run SAP BusinessObjects Dashboards software and SAP Business Explorer (BEx) Webanalyzer and to support local printing via the SAP List Viewer (ALV). BI Java can be deployed on the sameJ2EE server that is used for ADS, or together with the portal and the SAP NetWeaver AS for Java on aseparate J2EE server (recommended). The portal is optional as a client, but technically required for SAPBusinessObjects Dashboards and BEx Web analyzer.

TREX (Enterprise Search)

You can use SAP NetWeaver Enterprise Search to search for incidents in the application.

To use Enterprise Search, see also SAP Note 1164979.

SAP Product Stewardship Network

Using the on demand networked application SAP Product Stewardship Network is optional. It enables you todownload regulatory content information as well as collaboration with business partners in complying withsubstance-related regulations, such as requirements for product declarations. This system is not installed atthe customer site. You can access it via the Internet using calls to web service endpoints.

International Material Data System (IMDS)

Using IMDS is optional. It enables the exchange of product-related data, such as material compositions withinthe automotive supply chain. This is required to comply with legal requirements such as the EU directive onend-of life vehicles. This system is not installed at the customer site. You can access it via the Internet.

2.7 Integration Scenarios with ERP

You can run the following integration scenarios with ERP:

Add-on is installed on top of the productive ERP system (see 2.7.1 Add-On Installed on Productive ERP).

Add-on is installed side-by-side with the ERP system (see 2.7.2 Add-On Installed on ERP System (OperatedSide-by-Side to an Earlier ERP System).

2.7.1 Add-On Installed on Productive ERP

Figure 4: Deployment of SAP EHS Management as Add-On on Productive ERP System



Figure 4 depicts that you can deploy all components of SAP EHS Management as an add-on to a productive ERPsystem. In this scenario, you can use an ERP system that is upgraded to enhancement package 7 for theproductive business processes, and the SAP EHS Management add-on for the supported components. The add-on reuses master data of the following lower software layers:

Application extension layer, including EA-APPL 617

Application component layer, including SAP_APPL 617 and SAP_HR 600 and higher

NoteSAP_HR is only relevant for health and safety processes (see chapter 3).

NetWeaver add-on layer, including SAP_BS_FND 747.

SAP NetWeaver Basis component layer, including SAP NetWeaver 740.

2.7.2 Add-On Installed on ERP System (Operated Side-by-Side to an Earlier ERP System)

To enable existing customers that run a productive ERP system on an earlier release (earlier than 617) to benefitfrom the functions of SAP EHS Management, the customer can use a side-by-side scenario. In this scenario, thecustomer additionally installs and operates an ERP 617 system with this add-on. This 617 system (with the add-on) is dedicated to running SAP EHS Management only. All other business processes still run in the earlier ERPsystem. To run the side-by-side installation, the following two main scenarios are possible:

Data is read remotely from the earlier ERP system by the 617 add-on system (see Figure 5Figure 5: Side-By-Side Scenario: Data is Read Remotely).

Data is replicated from the earlier ERP system to the 617 add-on system (see Figure 6 Side-By-Side Scenario:Data is Replicated).

CautionRegardless of which side-by-side scenario you choose, there is specific data that can only be read locally.This data must be replicated. For more information about the specific data that must be replicated, seethe Customizing activity Specify Destination for Integration under SAP EHS Management Foundationfor EHS Management Integration.



Figure 5: Side-By-Side Scenario: Data is Read Remotely

Figure 6 illustrates how you can use a side-by-side scenario for the health and safety processes of SAP EHSManagement. Here, with Figure 5, the SAP EHS Management system reads data from the earlier ERP systemremotely, specifically from the following software layers of the earlier ERP system:

Application extension layer, including EA-APPL 470 or 600 and higher

Application component layer, including SAP_APPL 470 or 600 and higher, and SAP_HR 470 or 600 andhigher

NetWeaver add-on layer

SAP NetWeaver Basis component layer, including SAP NetWeaver 620 or 700 and higher

Note See chapter 2.2 Integrated Application Components for details on supported versions per applicationcomponent in a side-by-side scenario.

If necessary, the add-on system reads replicated data from the following lower software layers:

Application extension layer, including EA-APPL 617



Application component layer, including SAP_APPL 617and SAP_HR 600 and higher

NoteSAP_HR is only relevant for health and safety processes (see chapter 3).

NetWeaver add-on layer, including SAP_BS_FND 747

SAP NetWeaver Basis component layer, including SAP NetWeaver 740

Figure 6 Side-By-Side Scenario: Data is Replicated

Figure 6 is similar to Figure 5. However, in this side-by-side scenario, the data in the application extension layerand the application component layer of the earlier system are replicated in the corresponding applicationextension layer and application component layer of the add-on system. The data is not read remotely. Thisscenario can also be used for all components of SAP EHS Management.
