What are the objectives ?
Cost Reduction per minimizing the number of interfaces, layers and
data maintenance.
Standardize the interfaces based on ANSI/ISA-95 B2MML messages.
Logical integration between the ERP and the shop Floor systems to
improve the data quality and the business processes.
Improved usability and exception based proactive business process
monitoring to control the route of the message transportation.
Visualization and reporting of production relevant data from all
involved levels from the shop floor to my SAP Business Suite.

Scope
Responsibility
SAP AG 2006, SAP Manufacturing & Interoperability / Jürgen Wettengl / 35
1. Allow supervision of configurable manufacturing processes
from ERP to Shop floor (or Shop Floor to EP) including message
exchange and message processing in the affected systems.
2. Trigger alerts for processes which either show errors or show
‘hanging’ steps. Alerts should be visible in a dashboard.
3. Allow follow-up action on individual processes either as drill
down or corrective action.
4. Support high data volumes of process messages to be usable in
shop floor scenarios.
5. Must be easy to configure and easy to use .
6. Should run on existing mySAP ERP or on separate SAP instance

Value to Customers
Cost Reduction per minimizing the number of
interfaces, layers and data maintenance.
Standardize the interfaces based on ANSI/ISA-95
B2MML messages.
Improved usability and proactive solution monitoring.
Visualization and reporting of production relevant data

Summary
Interoperability is the ability of production applications
and manufacturing business applications to share
information and exchange services with each other based
on standards.
Depending on the required scenarios and the size of
the company SAP XMII alone or complementary used
together with SAP XI can help to improve the
interoperabilty.
A proactive solution monitoring can help to monitor the
systems and to control the route of the message
transport.
